CCTV 13 studios.

Moderator: "Good afternoon, everyone, this is the CCTV news channel news live room, it's 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and the news live room will continue to take you to watch the news."

"Next, welcome the three directors of the opening director team of the Olympic Games, Zhang Yimou, Xu Ning and Feng Xiaogang, to be guests in the live broadcast room......"

The picture turned and was given to three people.

All three smiled and nodded at the same time.

At this point,

The TV was full of audiences, from seventy or eighty years old to seven or eight years old, and many middle school students who didn't like to watch the news on weekdays were watching TV with relish.

A community in Beijing.

A fifteen or sixteen-year-old female high school student, after hearing the sound of the news live broadcast room, happily ran out of the study and sat on the sofa.

Her father said "Huh" and said with a smile: "Girl, what kind of wind actually blew you over to watch the news today?" ”

The female student said with a grin: "Haha, of course it's Xu Ning." ”

The old father shook his head: "How can there be him in this live broadcast room......"

Female student: "Dad, look, Xu Ning, as well as Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang!" ”

Elsewhere, a similar scene is happening, where many students who don't usually watch the news sit on the TV and stare at it.

When Xu Ning said that three programs had officially entered the rehearsal state, the fans in front of the TV let out a burst of cheers.

"Wow, Brother Ning is so handsome in formal clothes!"

"A real thug in a suit...... Those action stars in Hollywood are really weak in front of Brother Ning. ”

"Haha, I don't think Xiao Lizi is as handsome as Brother Ning!"

"I really want to marry such a man!"

“……”

Such discussions take place in various parts of the country, and Xu Ning's fan base is too large and the age level is also rich.

In some families, the daughter is thirteen or fourteen years old, and the mother is in her thirties, and the two of them sit in front of the TV and watch the news, happy like little fan girls.

The whole live broadcast lasted for 30 minutes, of which 15 minutes were Xu Ning speaking, and the host kept asking him about the topic.

It seems that the news channel also knows the traffic password......

At the same time, on a certain floor downstairs, the six princesses are playing Xu Ning's movie "Assembly Number", which has the meaning of grabbing ratings with the news channel.

Coming out of the newsroom......

Xu Ning received a very crazy news that a crazy fan of Andy went bankrupt and his father committed suicide in order to see him.

He immediately thought of a name: Yang Lijuan - this person, in order to chase stars, with the support of her father, not only sold the house, but also borrowed usury.

The most terrifying thing is that her father also sold a kidney to raise money for her daughter to go to Xiangjiang.

Who isn't afraid to meet such a fan......

If Xu Ning met such a crazy fan, he would definitely not see her, so as not to get into trouble.

This call came from Fang Long, who was the first to learn the news in Xiangjiang, and his gossip heart couldn't help but share it with Xu Ning.

At this point,

Xu Ningzheng and Zhang Yimou went to the restaurant for dinner, and several people heard the content of the chat.

hung up the phone,

Zhang Yimou shook his head and smiled helplessly: "This kind of person is too crazy, chasing a star makes his family bankrupt, and he threatens him with death!" ”

Feng Xiaogang scolded: "This woman's father is really not a thing, he has his own problems, and he has taken his daughter crookedly." ”

Xu Ning also agrees.

This family is quite outrageous.

When he arrived at the hotel, he took out his mobile phone and called Andy, the two chatted for a while, and Xu Ning comforted him.

Some time ago, Andy just announced that he and his girlfriend had received a marriage certificate, and it was only a few days before this incident happened, which is very sad.

remembers that before he was reborn, which star-chasing woman was still single, and it is estimated that no one who knew her past dared to marry her.

……

It was fast forward to the beginning of April.

Two days before the start of "The King of Kung Fu", Fan Bing'er and Li Bing'er came to Dongshan Villa to find him again.

This

Because of the abundant time, the energy is relatively full, and I communicate from 8 o'clock in the evening to 1 o'clock in the evening before falling asleep.

But Xu Ning was tired.

The next day.

Xu Ning got up early to put them on the plane, and then went back to his villa in Chaoyang, where Liu Yinyin and Chen Yu had already gotten up.

Xu Ning fell asleep after arriving home, and rushed to work at the opening ceremony operation center at close to ten o'clock, continuing to review the songs submitted by artists from all over the country.

April 5th.

"The King of Kung Fu" was announced in Hengdian, and Fang Long specially invited him to go, but he declined.

It's too late to get out of the way,

How is it possible to go to the boot-up ceremony?

Because this film is a cooperation between the mainland and Hollywood, it has received a lot of attention, and dozens of media came to the ceremony.

A simple ceremony took a whole morning to end, and the lineup of Fang Long, Li Lianjie, Liu Yifei, Fan Bing'er, and Li Bing'er was unprecedentedly huge.

Many people are predicting that this movie may reach 500 million, becoming the highest-grossing film in Chinese film history.

In fact, such a prediction is not unreasonable.

presently

The highest domestic box office is "The City Full of Golden Armor", which was released during the Spring Festival, which was cut down to 356 million.

And the lineup of this movie is Zhang Yimou + Xu Ning + Zhou Runfa + Zhang Ziyi, to be honest, very strong.

If you want traffic to have traffic, you want acting skills to have acting skills, and it is not surprising to win this box office.

And the lineup of "The King of Kung Fu" is more luxurious, Hollywood + Fang Long + Li Lianjie + Shuangbing + Liu Yifei!

More powerful than the previous one.

Because, everyone is optimistic about the box office forecast of 500 million, even Fang Long himself feels this way.

Just a few days after the movie was filmed, the major theaters released cruel words, definitely leaving the best schedule and the most scheduled films for "The King of Kung Fu".

There are many dragon fans, Jie fans, and Filipino fans......

are looking forward to this movie.

Liu Yifei's fans all ran to Xu Ning to complain: "Woo woo, why is the actor not Brother Ning, I really want to see Yifei and Xu Ning together." ”

Some time ago, the heat of the scandal between him and Sissi was still there, and today's start-up ceremony was on the hot search again, and everyone was more concerned about the scandal.

"I heard that Hollywood has asked Xu Ning to act, but Xu Ning refused, what is the reason?"

"This one is clearly ...... Brother Ning doesn't want to play a supporting role for Fang Long, Brother Ning will definitely be the protagonist in the next movie. ”

"It makes sense, Brother Ning played as many scenes in "Golden Armor" last time as Zhou Yanfa, and it is impossible to play a supporting role for Fang Long."

“……”

Thousands of speeches.

Suddenly, a voice slowly came into focus.

A netizen with the screen name "Flying Toad" commented: "Actually, I think Brother Ning doesn't act, mainly because he is afraid of ruining his reputation." ”

And then

He analyzed the reasons in detail.

The first is that it is difficult to balance the roles of the three major stars.

This situation will inevitably lead to a can't tell the story clearly, because Fang Long, Jet Li and Xu Ning are together, who is the center?

It is possible to shoot a little here and a little there, want everything, and shoot nothing well, resulting in a bad shot anywhere in the end.

The second reason is that the male protagonist is an American, which leads to a very fragmented phenomenon, which makes the Chinese audience lose their sense of substitution.

People who like to watch pure oriental mythological stories can't stand the protagonist of the western face......

And for viewers who like to watch Hollywood blockbusters, there are many people who will not like the stories set against the background of ancient Chinese mythology.

The third reason is that Hollywood directors do not understand the core of Chinese myths and stories, and will take it for granted that they will shoot with their own understanding.

There is actually a little truth in what this man said.

The final film of "The King of Kung Fu" is the story of a Western protagonist who goes to the East to explore.

It's like throwing a Chinese into the Marvel World Adventure, and the American audience must think it's ridiculous.

Gradually,

This reply has been paid more and more attention, and even Sina media has discovered this post, and Xu Ning's little fan brothers and little fan sister editors immediately began to be moved.

In less than two hours, a manuscript was released, and the title was clearly written: [Only invest and not act, Xu Ningkong expected the result of "The King of Kung Fu". 】

The editor-in-chief who got the manuscript read the article and felt that the angle was very novel, and the analysis was also very good, so it could be sent.

But last time I was dicked by the general manager for a long time, the department director also remembered it, and he first sent the article to the general manager to read.

The general manager transferred it to Xu Xiuyan......

Xu Xiuyan printed it out and showed it to Xu Ning.

At this time, he was sitting on the sofa at home, eating the apple cut by Chen Yu, and laughed out loud after seeing this article.

"Sina's editors have learned the lesson last time, and now they have really become my little fans, this article is well written, let them send it."

Xu Xiuyan smiled: "You, you, you really still think this movie is not good, I guessed it." ”

Xu Ning nodded: "I'm not suspicious of Li Lianjie and Fang Long, it's just that this protagonist is a foreigner, I'm very awkward." ”

Chen Yu also whispered: "I also think that there is no sense of substitution at all, and most Chinese people will not like such a protagonist." ”

"Xiaoyu's analysis is good." As she spoke, Xu Ning touched her head with her hand.

Turn your head,

only to find Xu Xiuyan staring at him.

He hurriedly went upstairs to sleep.

Following.

"Beijing Meets Seattle" was launched.

Xu Ning personally attended the event, and at the opening ceremony, he specially introduced Tang Wei, "This is my right-hand man, with outstanding ability, this time she will be the director and starring ......"

There was an uproar in the media......

This woman shouldn't have something to do with Xu Ning, right? Otherwise, how could you go from assistant to director?!

Conspiracy theories soon appeared online.

But

Sina's editorial department was strong enough to refute these conspiracies one by one, leaving no trace of the opponent's armor.

Afterwards, Xu Ning specially asked the people in the company to buy some gifts for them to send over, which was to thank them for their unsparing battle during this time.

However, because Tang Wei was a director for the first time and was not very experienced, Xu Ning asked Ning Hao to follow her to direct.

It took more than ten days to finally finish filming the scenes in the capital, and the crew was ready to pack up their things and go to Canada and the United States.

For this trip, he specially arranged for a vice president of the company to lead the team and contact to prevent Tang Wei from being confused.

And at this time,

It's April 15th.

Early in the morning, he took the crew of "Embroidered Spring Knife" to Xiangjiang to prepare for the Academy Awards ceremony in the evening.

Those who came together included Nie Yuan, Wang Qianyuan, Liu Shishi, as well as Jin Shijie and Zhou Yiwei.

The master doesn't need to say much, as long as Xu Ning hooks her fingers, she will follow him without hesitation, even if it is the bathroom, bedroom and quilt.

Even the marriage registration window of the Civil Affairs Bureau is a matter of one sentence......

And others were very happy to receive Xu Ning's call, and it was a great honor to be able to participate in the Academy Awards with Director Xu.

Maybe Director Xu's words can make them take a very good role.

Arrived at Xiangjiang.

Fang Long and Andy drove a minibus together and took everyone to a hotel in Central, and then went to a hotel frequented by Hong Kong celebrities.

Over here

He met Zhang Yimou, who had also just arrived in Xiangjiang, and he took Zhou Yanfa River Gong Li with him.

Since the two groups of people are more familiar, they simply share the table and chat while eating.

Zhang Yimou's "The City Full of Golden Armor" was nominated for 12 awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Art Direction, and Best Original Film Song.

But most of them are accompaniments,

The probability of winning is extremely low.

Andy's "Ink Attack" was also nominated for several awards, and the influence seems to have been that Andy himself did not win any awards.

Although Xu Ning's "Embroidered Spring Knife" was only nominated for three items, they were all heavyweights, and according to media analysis, Xu Ning had a high probability of winning the award.

furthermore

He was also nominated for Best Supporting Actor and Best Original Film Music for "A City Full of Golden Armor".

……

After eating, a group of people played mahjong in the restaurant, and went out to the Grand Theater of the Xiangjiang Cultural Center until five o'clock.

On the red carpet at this time,

There are already a lot of showbiz bigwigs here.

Liang Chaowei, Kwok Fucheng, Ren Dahua, Liu Qingyun, Li Lianjie and Liu Ruoying, etc., the hosts are Zeng Baoyi, Zhang Jiahui, Lin Zicong.

However, the most concerned are still Xu Ning and Zhang Yimou...... The topic of the two is too high.

On the one hand, Xu Ning is very popular with girls in terms of people's aesthetics, and 70% of the audience at the scene are women, so the call is very big.

On the other hand, he and Lao Zhang are the chief directors of the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympic Games, and their popularity is so high that everyone in Xiangjiang knows and knows about it.

"Xu Ning, I love you!"

"Xu Ning, when did you promise us that our new album will come out, it's been a pigeon for several months!"

"Are you really in a relationship with Liu Yifei?"

"Xu Ning, do you have the confidence to win the best actor ......?"

"Can I take a group photo......"

Under everyone's strong call, he walked to the front of the fence and took a photo with everyone, and then came to the host.

Ten minutes later, when he arrived at the infield, many people came over to shake hands with Xu Ning, and once upon a time, he was the one who took the initiative to shake hands.

And now,

As long as you wait here, there will be a lot of people coming over.

Master Liu is wearing a black evening dress today, as if a black butterfly is around him, and wherever Xu Ning goes, Master will follow.

The flashes of the major media are aimed at her, this is the heat brought by Xu Ning, and it won't be long before the photos of the teacher will appear on the whole network.

"The following friendship Xu Ning brings us tonight's opening song "Chrysanthemum Terrace", warmly welcome Xu Ning!!" Zeng Baoyi introduced enthusiastically like a little fan. (End of chapter)
