"Brokeback Mountain" was filmed steadily, and news came from time to time in China.

On September 19, 8 days after the filming of "Brokeback Mountain" started, the total box office of "Wonderful Night" officially reached 360 million, breaking the box office record of "Titanic".

As soon as the news of "Wonderful Night" broke through, it unexpectedly became the headlines of domestic entertainment again.

Most of the opinions on the Internet on this matter are relatively positive.

After all, a country's box office record is finally no longer a foreign film, and this is something to be happy about.

In addition, this will also have a huge stimulus to the industry, and it is said that there have been many film projects.

I don't know anything else, anyway, Lu Ping'an feels that his cinema should be able to usher in a wave of performance growth next year.

However, there are also many who have a negative attitude.

There are many reasons for this.

The quality of the two movies "Wonderful Night" and "Titanic" is not comparable.

The film market in '04 and '98 was no compare.

So in comparison, "Wonderful Night" has nothing to be proud of.

Some people even feel that this is a "shame".

There are radical media shouting there, saying that a country's box office documentary films are largely a reflection of the level of a country's films.

It is a shame for the entire industry that a comedy movie like "Wonderful Night" with no connotation can become the first

These views are only a minority in the market.

Even if it is the majority, Lu Ping'an or other insiders will basically just listen.

I won't even listen.

If you just rely on talking about making movies, domestic movies will long be the first in the world.

But it also says a thing.

That is, the pressure on Lu Ping'an will be even greater in the future.

In China, it is very difficult to be the boss.

Fortunately, in the eyes of some people, Lu Ping'an knows how to "hide clumsy" and is a good child.

For example, at the awards ceremony of the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival on the 19th, Hu Qingquan was asked several times, "Why didn't Lu Ping'an come?" ”

This time, Lu Ping'an was absent from the Golden Rooster Award because he was going to make a movie.

Hu Qingquan came over, first, to replace Lu Ping'an.

In case "Wonderful Night" wins an award, or "Hunger Platform" wins an award, he will have to show up to receive it.

Second, Hu Qingquan himself is also nominated.

This time he was nominated for Best Producer.

The festival has created a new award.

It's very fresh, but it basically can't be obtained, because the candidate still has Mr. Yang of China Film.

But it still has to come.

Faced with the questions of the old antiques, Hu Qingquan's answer was the same: "Filming in Laomei, a literary film." ”

"What subject?"

"Same-sex ethics films."

"Oh~~~"

Everyone's reaction was pretty much the same.

Same-sex ethics literary film.

There isn't much market for this kind of film.

Even if it is photographed, it is useless commercially.

However, in the "mainstream" literary and artistic circles, this is more useful.

So most of the "old school" nodded and praised: "If you can stabilize your mentality, Lao Hu, you have done a good job as a teacher." ”

Then the conversation changed: "Next year, the investment in Kai Ge and Xu Laowei's films is not low, and the number of movie theaters next year will definitely be more than this year, how bad can the box office be?" You can take more than 300 million, and they can also take it, so the box office is only temporary, you are right to do this, you really have to keep a low profile, literary films are so wow, you can say it at any time if you need to"

Some people also said: "Now that the great directors of Xiangjiang have begun to enter the mainland, Xiangjiang film Lao Hu Ling also knows it, it's hard to say how high the artistry is, but they are indeed better at playing business than us, this is right, people started playing decades ago, so we still have to learn more in the future, the way back is safe, let's form a bureau"

Others said: "It's right to make a literary film, show me after the filming, it's not easy to win foreign awards, so pick up the domestic ones first."

Hu Qingquan smiled and chatted with a group of people one by one.

There is contempt in my heart, and I feel that these people are too self-righteous.

Of course, there are concerns.

Unlike Lu Ping'an, he knows the future development of the industry, and he also knows that the future of Xiangjiang filmmakers will be unaccustomed to the mainland.

Therefore, Hu Qingquan is indeed worried that these people will pose a great threat to Lu Ping'an and mainland filmmakers.

However, he still believes in Lu Ping'an's ability.

I believe in what Lu Ping'an said, commercial films will definitely be the mainstream in the future, and compared with the box office of a single film, the film industry is the magic weapon for success in the future.

So for these old antiques, Hu Qingquan didn't bother to argue with them.

After chatting with the antiques, all that was left was a bunch of other industry insiders who looked up to him and even wished they were squeezing him dry tonight.

As Lu Ping'an's teacher, Hu Qingquan's current status in the industry is a little difficult to estimate.

In the eyes of the old school, Hu Qingquan, like Lu Ping'an, is still a bit of an outlier, and can only be regarded as half of his own people, after all, everyone is engaged in art, you are engaged in the box office, and after you have made a difference in the "mainstream", you can really be regarded as your own person.

In the eyes of the new generation of companies and actors, Hu Qingquan's status is lower than that of leaders such as China Film and Shanghai Film, but higher than that of many domestic film and television company CEOs.

After all, his student is Lu Ping'an, and Hu Qingquan is the producer of almost all of Lu Ping'an's films, including "Wonderful Night", which won the record this morning.

"Wonderful Night" won the first place at the box office, and the bonus it brought to the actors was quite large.

Take the red carpet as an example, the main creative team that came over today also received a different courtesy from the past.

For example, Zeng Li has received much more flashes than other actresses.

This is the courtesy of the protagonist, and the rest of the small supporting roles are also huge.

Some have already started to add personal box office results to their resumes.

has a personal box office of 360 million, and has personally participated in a large number of unknown projects, which one is more eye-catching? Obviously.

The crew of "Wonderful Night" is like this, and the main creative team of "Hunger Platform" is similar tonight.

are all Lu Ping'an's projects, and compared with "Wonderful Night", "Hunger Platform" seems to be more able to win awards in the industry.

This time, "Hunger Platform" received three nominations at the Hundred Flowers Awards, although this year's film festival did not announce the list of winners in advance.

But the "nomination" itself has a high value in the industry.

In this way, Lu Ping'an's films can win awards and increase their commercial value.

So

As soon as Hu Qingquan appeared on the stage, the light in the eyes of the actors on the scene was almost brighter than the flashing lights outside the red carpet.

And then soon there were people coming up to talk.

"Teacher Hu, I'm Bingbing, why didn't the road guide come?"

"Mr. Hu, this is Zhang Jinchu, who just acted in a movie."

"Mr. Hu"

If Hu Qingquan is willing to loosen his mouth tonight, he will probably be squeezed dry at night.

Fortunately, Hu Qingquan knows it in his heart.

The more this time, the more stable it is.

Lu Ping'an didn't float, how can a teacher float?

At the end of the awards, "Wonderful Night" won only one Best Music as expected.

Hu Qingquan's Best Producer Award was not unexpectedly lost, and China Film Yang won the award.

Also this year's blockbuster "Ambush on All Sides" only won one Best Art Award.

The rest of the awards are still very positive.

In fact, "Wonderful Night" can also win a lot of awards if it really wants to win awards.

For example, the best costume design and the best special effects, but the Golden Rooster Award does not have these awards.

And as a children's movie, the Best Children's Film Award can also be won.

There is also the fact that the best director can actually be won, after all, they have all broken records, which is worth saying.

But the Golden Rooster Award still plays a glorious tradition.

However, while playing with tradition, the performance is very screwed.

This year's Golden Rooster Award for Best Supporting Actress is vacant, and none of the 4 nominees will give you a letter?

The threshold for this year's films is to start at the box office of 5 million, but the highest-grossing "Wonderful Night" can only be used as a match.

It's boring.

No wonder after the award ceremony, many media said that this year's Golden Rooster seemed to want to make himself a maverick and establish authority, but in the end he made himself very embarrassed.

At the subsequent Hundred Flowers Award, Lu Ping'an had a lot of gains.

"Hunger Platform" won the excellent feature film, and Duan Long won the outstanding actor at the same time as Li Youbin with "Hunger Platform".

Neither of these awards is the highest prize, and there is also the "best" on top of the "excellent".

So overall, it's probably a consolation prize.

In this regard, Lu Ping'an's expression after knowing the news did not fluctuate.

Lao Hu on the other end of the phone was only disappointed that there was no buffet for the golden rooster this time.

So in his opinion, the golden rooster has become more and more "golden rooster ribs".

Hu Qingquan didn't have a big idea about this kind of award, so after saying it unhappily, he then talked about happy things.

"Duan Long, this kid cried at the award ceremony, saying that he would have a drink with you when you came back."

"Hey, this is really ready to lay down his life, okay, you tell him, and I am ready to lay down my life."

"Haha, Duan Long said that it would not be counted."

The Little Hundred Flowers Award is naturally not uncommon for Lu Ping'an.

But it's different for actors like Duan Long.

Vanity Fair, awards are the hallmark, and it's hard for any actor to disdain this.

It is foreseeable that by tomorrow, Lu Ping'an mobile phone will usher in a wave of SMS peaks.

So after Lu Ping'an and Hu Qingquan finished chatting, they turned off the phone directly and concentrated on filming.

On the whole, the movie "Brokeback Mountain" is much simpler than the movies Lu Ping'an has made before.

There are no car chases, jumping scenes, special effects scenes, and explosion scenes

You won't even find a shot from a modern film in the whole film.

This kind of movie is simply a nightmare of industrial cinema.

There is not a trace of industrialization, it is all primitive and supernatural.

So knowing the original film, the movie solves 50% of the problems.

found Hao Yuanyuan, and the movie solved 40% of the problems.

The last 10% is the uncontrollable elements of the rest of the shot, such as the scenery.

For example, the sky, the clouds in the sky, the visibility of the air today, the wind, the weather, and the flock of sheep that are always in a hurry.

Many times, people have to follow these uncontrollable factors.

For example, the weather forecast says that it will snow within three days.

The entire crew can only try their best to solve the current scene within three days, otherwise they will be ganged up.

Fortunately, the actors are very dedicated, and the strength of the two protagonists is enough.

So although the next shooting was overtime, everyone was still very happy.

Of course, as for being happy, there is also shyness.

For example, tonight's one.

This is the most difficult scene in the whole movie in Lu Ping'an's view.

The two protagonists will be in the tent and complete the first time.

There are some scenes and shots of the flow of desire in Brokeback Mountain, such as the intimate encounter between Jack and Ennis in a tent in the mountains.

Li An revealed that he was actually very shy when filming this sex scene.

So he decided to make the shoot very technical, such as setting up a complex one-step shooting agreement with 13 points to note so that the actors didn't think about anything outside of filming.

He said that the first shot of the scene was very difficult, and it wasn't until 13 times that the final version was available.

Filming so much is in the hope that this scene will be real and convincing.

This time it was Lu Ping'an's turn to shoot.

For this kind of scene.

To be honest, Lu Ping'an is also the first time I have encountered it.

Not to mention the same sex, even the bed scene of the opposite sex, Lu Ping'an has never filmed it.

The bed scene in the short film "The Tuner" is a joke, not counted.

So in the beginning, he was also very shy.

But who made him the director.

Director, in this case it's time for the town.

Therefore, the road safety does not change color, calm, calm and calm.

It's all about art!

"Ready!"

With an order, the crew started filming.

Then after 18 times, finally passed.

The two protagonists walk out of the tent with slightly red cheeks, not knowing if they are shy or tired.

Jack asked, "Director, how's it going?" ”

Lu Ping'an smiled and let out the same emotion as Li An of the original time and space: "So gay! ”

Everyone laughed, and Lu Ping'an was complaining to Goldfinger in his heart.

TM has to give me an interesting reward this time!

The artistic shot was successfully completed, and the scene under "Brokeback Mountain" is coming to an end.

Lu Ping'an continued to work overtime, and then filmed the protagonist's meeting several times after "Under the Brokeback Mountain".

The two protagonists still play bravely, from young to middle-aged, and their performance is smooth.

The crew also rushed to end the battle before it really snowed.

Fortunately, there was no snow for the next three days, and the scenery under the entire Rocky Mountains still showed the beauty of autumn.

It wasn't until the crew packed up everything and prepared to leave after the end of work that the snowflakes fell quietly, which also made everyone in the crew sigh "God bless", and Lu Ping'an was also very emotional, "like divine help" scenes, most of which can bring some different colors to the film, I hope this god-like celestial phenomenon can continue.

。。。。。。。

After filming in Canada ended, the crew of "Brokeback Mountain" switched to the old United States and New Australia.

The families of the two protagonists also join the story.

Among them, the one who plays Jack's wife is the widowed sister.

The original version of this character was played by Anne Hathaway.

Paramount wanted to find her at first, too.

But unfortunately, because it was filmed two months later than the original time and space, Anne Hathaway did not have a schedule.

This is already Lu Ping'an's invitation to her twice, but it has not been successful.

Lu Ping'an didn't think anything, this is the norm in the industry.

Anne Hathaway is quite good at being a person, she called Lu Ping'an and said that next time she will definitely be.

Whatever she really thinks, the attitude is here anyway.

Anne Hathaway couldn't come, so the widow sister successfully substituted, and she took the initiative to call.

But Lu Ping'an asked: "It's Jake Gyllenhaal who plays against you." ”

Something has to be explained.

In Lu Ping'an's impression, there was a period between the two.

However, the widow sister said that it didn't matter, saying that it was a meeting in Pingshui, and there was no emotion, and the two were together last year, and there was also hype from the brokerage company.

This statement is similar to that of Jack Gyllenhaal.

Lu Ping'an suddenly felt that there was so much water in the image of the widowed sister's fierce boss.

This sister has changed 11 boyfriends in 13 years in the future, to be precise, in the 13 years from 2004 to 2017, there have been 3 marriages and 8 rumored boyfriends, which can be regarded as a real tough boss who can form an "ex-boyfriend (ex-husband) football team".

But now it seems, it feels a little watery.

But he doesn't think much about it, in the entertainment industry, it's too normal to be true or false.

After the widow sister came, she was very enthusiastic to see Lu Ping'an, and she was not much embarrassed to see Jack Gyllenhaal, like an old friend.

Then get into the state.

Compared with the doubts of the rest of the actors at the beginning, the widow sister is still more confident in Lu Ping'an's filming of "Brokeback Mountain".

After all, the two have known each other for a long time, in the words of the widowed sister:

"I've watched you pull off miracles along the way."

For "Brokeback Mountain", the widow sister also gave her blessings: "I hope you can create a miracle again." ”

Talking!

Give more shots in a while, and let the goddess of literature and art play well.

Her role has a leak in the film.

Lu Ping'an, who is highly professional, will naturally not fool the past with a professional attitude.

Of course, this must first be that the film is artistic enough.

Otherwise, you want to make people miss any film, and it's strange if people don't call you dead.

And "Brokeback Mountain" obviously hit the G-spot of the widowed sister.

For this kind of pure love art film dedication, the goddess of literature and art likes it too much.

So the widow sister also showed a strong professionalism in this regard.

It's just that she couldn't help but sigh afterwards: "It would be nice if you were my boyfriend, so that I could give you a bigger scale." ”

"It's a pity that you don't officially fall in love with a man under the age of 30."

Lu Ping'an replied with a smile.

This is the widow's bold statement in front of the media this year.

After shouting this, she became the queen of the topic in Hollywood.

It will indeed help her career a lot.

It is said that she soon received a lot of resources, including "Love Song to Bobby Lang", through which she successfully won the second Golden Globe Award nomination.

There is also a big production, which is Michael Bay's "Escape from Clone Island", which will be filmed in October.

After hearing this, the widow sister looked at Lu Ping'an and responded with an affectionate smile: "I do have this idea, but I will not refuse an excellent man." ”

Lu Ping'an immediately replied: "But an excellent man may reject you." ”

"Oh, so sad!"

The widow sister made a look of regret.

Lu Ping'an smiled and threatened: "If you joke again, you will have to deduct your salary." ”

The widow sister immediately returned to her serious appearance: "You don't have this right." ”

"Then deduct the bonus."

"And the bonus?"

"Of course, but not anymore."

"No, I'm not kidding, I'm going to stay professional"

The little joke ends.

The two quickly eliminated the slight strangeness after not seeing each other for a long time.

This is useful for later shoots.

There is no ambiguity in the atmosphere, only familiarity.

All the talk revolves around the movie.

The whole set was also full of art.

This allows the actor to be more involved in the performance in front of the director and the camera.

It is also possible for the director to communicate better with the actors.

So in the next bed scene.

The widow sister who missed a point, under the command of Lu Ping'an, completed a pretty good performance in front of the camera.

"How?"

The widow sister wrapped in a big blanket watched the replay with Lu Ping'an after the performance.

Lu Ping'an nodded, big enough, no, it's enough to invest.

"Great, but it could be better."

Pretty badly.

Only 96%.

Now he's not just satisfied with passing.

What he wants is to get infinitely close to transcendence, and then strive for transcendence.

Jake Gyllenhaal on the side touched his nose and did not speak.

The car shock scene just now is really exciting.

The widow sister squinted at Lu Ping'an, and felt that Lu Ping'an was a little deliberate.

However, Lu Ping'an's reason is very strong: "The emotional transformation is not intense enough, you know, you look here, there is still less light in your eyes." ”

The female protagonist is in the car, the female protagonist is in the upper position, and she took the initiative to step on the brakes before she started, and asked the male protagonist if everything was developing too fast, and whether he should step on the brakes.

The male protagonist replied: It doesn't matter if it's fast or slow, just go in the right direction.

So the virgin heroine finally broke through the constraints of family dogma and took the initiative to strip and throw herself into her arms.

Lu Ping'an looked serious and professional: "Jack behaved very well, you are almost, your eyes should be a little purer, you know, you are a virgin now." ”

The widow sister was a little embarrassed: "Am I not pure enough?" ”

Lu Ping'an continued: "Pure enough, but it can be more pure, the eyes should be full of brainless fantasies about love, and a little less of the sense of sophistication that sees the end of the relationship at a glance, you know what I mean, right?" ”

The widow sister nodded thoughtfully, and then hooked her finger at Jack: "I see, Jack, come again!" ”

Jack was summoned by the big guy, as if thinking of the fear of being dominated before, and immediately got up and did it.

Then the car shock scene continued, and after three more times, Lu Ping'an was finally satisfied:

"Now you come and see, how does it feel?"

The widow sister wrapped herself in a blanket and looked at her performance.

Sure enough, there are subtle differences.

The widow sister smiled and praised: "You will be a good director." ”

Lu Ping'an: "Thank you, you will also be a good actor." ”

The widow sister asked again: "Will this section be kept?" ”

"Yes, what, not mentally prepared?"

"It's done, but it's still a little weird."

"Let's open it."

“。。。”

6000 words first, the state is still a little wrong, and I will write it tomorrow.
