"The core of the movie "The Crow" is cruel and bloody."
"At the beginning of the creation of the script, it was a story I heard in a remote rural village."
"At the time, I felt shocked and incredible. I even thought the storyteller was lying to me because I thought she lived a happy life. However, when I actually went to her home and learned everything, I realized
Reality is crueler than fiction."
"The script of "The Crow" has been revised repeatedly. The last revision was at night at Changgu Lake. I wrote down the last dialogue. I think the story is complete and perfect."
"Later, I was invited to China Star to direct the post-production work of "The Bottom of the Mine". I saw the movie "The Bottom of the Mine". I was shocked at the time. It was hard to believe that this movie was made by Director Zhou alone!
"
"The story is shocking, the impact is very strong, and every fragment is full of artistic tension!"
"Of course, I feel very sorry in my heart. I regret why such a story was not written by me, and why I am not the director."
"This regret lasted until I met Director Zhou, and then, this regret was filled..."
"..."
The lights flicker.
At the "Crow" crew press conference, Wang Shuai faced reporters and talked in an emotional voice.
He looked very serious.
However, his voice is full of magnetism, and his unhurried storytelling seems very attractive.
Many reporters looked at him closely, and there was not even a trace of other noise in the Nuo University venue.
Zhou Yang sat next to Wang Shuai.
His emotions are very complex.
Grateful, nervous, and full of uneasiness.
At the same time, he felt guilty.
According to Wang Shuai, this hat is too big and too heavy when photographed by one person!
It was so heavy that he couldn't breathe.
It is impossible for him to shoot the movie "Under the Mine" alone. Most of the content was helped by Feng Kai. He just sat in front of the camera and tried to restore the pictures according to the pictures in his mind.
Otherwise, he seemed to have done nothing.
Of course, he knew that he couldn't say this now. No matter how low his emotional intelligence was, he couldn't rashly say these words to slap Wang Shuai in the face.
Moreover, Zhou Yang had seen the agreement signed by Feng Kai. The content of the agreement was that he was not allowed to disclose his experience of directing "The Mine" to any media or any organization, not even a little bit.
Zhou Yang didn't know what to say for a while.
He could only sigh helplessly in his heart, and then he tried to keep himself as calm as Wang Shuai, and just sat quietly, looking in one direction without saying a word.
"Leave everything to me. You can talk as little as you can. Remember in the future, when dealing with reporters, you just stay aloof. Being aloof is not a bad habit. Many artists are so aloof. You
Even if you are aloof, they will still respect you, think you have something, and think you are awesome." Zhou Yang recalled what Wang Shuai said to him.
……………………
Cai Lin saw the interview.
Her fingers trembled slightly.
She bit her lip and stared at every detail of the interview carefully.
From the beginning to the end of the interview, Cai Lin has always been concerned about the relationship between Wang Shuai and Zhou Yang.
The more she looked at it, the more she felt an indescribable feeling.
Wang Shuai's eyes did not hide the importance he attached to Zhou Yang, and his words during the interview even showed his appreciation for Zhou Yang's talent!
Cai Lin suddenly realized that she had hit an iron plate.
Wang Shuai is one of the representative directors in the Beijing circle and one of the few influential figures among the big boys.
Beijing circle!
what is that?
That is the circle that all the people in the entertainment industry want to get into.
It symbolizes power, resources, money, connections...
Eighty percent of the celebrities who have become popular in recent years are related to this circle!
Even the former King and Queen of Hong Kong had a similar relationship.
When she first entered this circle, Cai Lin received advice from her seniors. The content of the advice was very simple, that is, if you can't integrate into the Beijing circle, don't offend them.
Otherwise, you will die miserably.
Wang Shuai announced at this moment that he invited Zhou Yang to join the crew, and he did not hesitate to appreciate Zhou Yang at the press conference...
So!
what does that mean?
Cai Lin's face still turned a little pale, and uneasiness swept through her whole body, as if she was being pressed by a big bell, and she couldn't even breathe.
"sister……"
"..."
"sister?"
"..."
"Sister? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I was a little lost in thought just now."
Cai Lin heard the worried voice of agent Xu Mei next to her.
She pretended to be calm and closed the notebook silently.
"Sister, how about I take a break and take down the announcement we sent before, and then..." Although Cai Lin concealed it well, Xu Mei still noticed the slight change in Cai Lin's face, and she subconsciously suggested.
"What does the company think about this?" Cai Lin did not answer Xu Mei's words, but asked this question.
"I've been with you all this time, and the company's senior management didn't call me either..." Xu Mei shook her head and replied.
"I understand, you go down first."
"Then what we sent..."
"Don't take back a word of those comments you made earlier! Of course, don't continue to add more material to increase Zhou Yang's popularity!"
"good."
Agent Xu Mei left the office.
After Xu Mei left, Cai Lin's eyes flickered and she recovered from the initial panic.
Naturally, she thought about taking down what she said before and pretending to be dead. She even thought that if the matter was bigger, she would simply bow her head and apologize...
However, in the end she rejected all these things.
Behind her is Xinghui Entertainment, and under Xinghui Entertainment, there are also many people in the Beijing circle, and even directors in many circles have implicitly or openly approved of this behavior.
This time Wang Shuai should be regarded as an announcement to the entire circle, and even more of a warning to himself!
Although it seems noteworthy, it is impossible for him to overturn the table just because of Zhou Yang!
Absolutely impossible!
and!
Everything has happened, and you suddenly retreated as soon as you heard the news. Who in this circle will still think highly of you in the future?
Even if you are a gun, you must fight to the end to earn respect.
After thinking about this clearly, she immediately called the company leader and asked about the situation.
She understood when she heard her boss say that she didn't need to pay too much attention to it, but that she shouldn't hype it up too much.
After working her way up from the bottom step by step, Cai Lin, who has been used to many ups and downs, understands her own value in the company!
She is the future cash cow of the company!
Unless she has lost her value, the company will protect her as long as she doesn't do anything too extreme.
Afterwards, she carefully watched the news on the Internet again.
A sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Jiang Shushu fights with me?"
"I'm afraid I'm not qualified yet!"
"Since you want to step on me and get the upper hand, then you should try it!"
"..."
……………………
The storm gradually subsided amid Wang Shuai's press conference and Mr. Wu Zhenhong's abuse.
The trolls who criticized and criticized Zhou Yang receded like the tide within half an hour after the press conference ended.
What replaced it was an even crazier promotional release for the movie "Hero".
When I clicked on the movie section, all the sections were filled with various ways to boast about the movie "Hero", as well as various news about director Shen Changwei's stay in Berlin.
It seems that he is already the number one director in China.
Berlin!
It is always a hurdle that cannot be overcome.
Naturally, behind the countless noise, there is always some discussion about the movie "Under the Mine".
What was discussed more were the various stories between Wang Shuai and "The Mine", which even gave people the impression that Wang Shuai was the main creator of "The Mine".
It even implies a sense of rationality.
Because of Wang Shuai's help, "The Mine" has the chance to be shortlisted for Berlin!
Isn't this unreasonable?
Zhou Yang, on the other hand, is inconspicuous in these stories. Most of them appear as a foil, a word that he is reluctant to write down because he really has to.
It seems that many media and major social platforms are deliberately avoiding Zhou Yang.
but……
No matter how much you avoid it, you can never avoid the album "Girl with Wings" released by Huaxing Entertainment, let alone the words of the lyricist Zhou Yang!
As long as Cai Lin's new album "Flying Against the Wind" gets a little promotion news, Huaxing Entertainment will follow closely and promote "Girl with Wings", and every time it is promoted, the word "Zhou Yang" is mentioned!
Moreover, it seems that Zhou Yang and Song Lian, the album creator of "Flying Against the Wind" were deliberately put together.
Although, these posts were quickly suppressed by Xinghui Company...
But vaguely...
It actually exaggerates the atmosphere of Zhou Yang trying to kill the gods.
Two days passed quickly.
In the past two days, I don’t know whether it was due to the sequelae of too many black trolls or the fact that the plot itself did not have a large audience. The movie "Youth" showed mediocre box office performance. In the two days after its premiere, , continued to be sluggish, and the reviews from fans after watching the movie also continued to decline, without causing much waves.
The total box office in the two days was 9.8 million, which was less than 10 million. The box office did not meet the expected results at all.
Although it is not a loss, it is still full of an indescribable taste of failure.
This has an unspeakable blow to the morale of the entire Huaxing.
The morning of February 18th.
Zhou Yang was watching the promotional MV of "Girl with Wings" very seriously in his office.
The album will be officially released in the early morning of the day after tomorrow.
This is the final review stage.
Just at this time……
There was a knock on the door in the office.
Then...
"Director Zhou, the ticket to Berlin and your passport have been issued..."
He saw Wu Zhenhong's personal assistant Zhou Xi walking in with a document.
"Ah? I'm going to Berlin tomorrow? Isn't it March?"
"Ah? Well, Director Feng didn't tell you that the film should be screened at the film festival before winning the award? In fact, we just got the news of Berlin's invitation... It's good to be in advance, we can go there early to sell the film rights... By the way, Zhou
Director, do I need to inform the rest of the film team?”
"Ah? Let me know!"
"good."
……………………
"Director, I'm asking for leave..."
"What are you doing on leave?"
"I'm going to Berlin to attend a film festival. Director Zhou just called me..."
"Does "Mineral Bottom" have anything to do with you?"
"Some, some."
"Are you shortlisted for an award?"
"Ah, this, this doesn't..."
"Does post-editing have anything to do with you?"
"without……"
"Where's the script? Did you participate in writing it?"
"without……"
"Then what are you going to do? This time, the number of entourage members is limited... and there can't be any more!"
"I, I participated in the filming..."
"The photographer also participated in the shooting. Did he come over?"
"I, but..." Feng Kai ran to the set in excitement, but felt a basin of water pouring down on him, which made him feel cold to the core.
Then I saw Wang Shuai, who was arranging his clothes and putting on his tie: "Well, director, what are you doing..."
"I'm going to Berlin. I edited the film in the later stages, and I have old acquaintances in Berlin. I have to go there to help check it out. If necessary, I can also be an accompanying translator. By the way, do you know German?"
"I, I don't understand..."
"You should know the customs and customs of Berlin, right?"
"I... don't understand either."
"Then there's nothing you can do. Well, you're still young and have plenty of opportunities. Take good care of the crew's logistics. I'll give you a chance to perform after "The Crow" is shortlisted. You've been doing well recently. Originally, I... forget it, it's fine.
, Keep up the good work!" Wang Shuai stared at Feng Kai, his face suddenly softened, and he showed a smile of approval.
