When your mentality is stable, your work status will be better.
Although Lin Zhehua was hit by Chen Hui again, he did not become depressed again, but continued to work actively and hard in acting. There is nothing to say about his work attitude, which can be said to be very dedicated.
If the acting skills are not enough, the attitude will make it up.
If you don’t have enough talent, you have to work hard to make it happen.
In fact, there are many people who don't work hard enough to compete with others in terms of talent, but they start complaining that they don't have enough talent. This kind of mentality is quite ridiculous.
At least you are conscientious and work hard, but if you still can't compare with others, then you can say that there is a gap in talent. This is understandable.
And many people don't even try to do their jobs well, but they start to complain about their lack of talent. This is simply making excuses for their laziness.
Lin Zhehua is definitely not such a person.
Whether it is singing or acting, he has tried his best, so to a certain extent, he has really made up for his shortcomings through hard work.
Based on this alone, his future development path will definitely not be too bad.

After the important scenes of the rooftop showdown were filmed, the filming progress of the "Infernal Affairs" crew became faster and smoother. So far, some important plot scenes have almost been filmed. With the cooperation of Liu Qiangwei and Mai Zizhao,
The crew's progress has even advanced a bit.
This way, you can leave more time for the post-production of the film, and at the same time, there is room to check for omissions and fill in the gaps. The quality of the final product of the entire film will be more guaranteed.
As the filming progressed, many people in the crew gradually became optimistic about the film "Infernal Affairs".
Some important supporting actors and veteran actors occasionally talk privately about their views on the film.
Most people now feel that this film will definitely be a good one. Although no one can predict the final box office, judging from the script, the shooting scene, and the attitude of the actors, director, and crew, this film is
The quality will definitely be high.
Especially some veteran actors, who are very experienced and have a very sharp vision. Generally, they can roughly figure out what a crew is like and what kind of movies they can make after joining the crew for a few days. However, sometimes they are also confused.
Just eat and drink, just see through and don't speak out.
But now, almost everyone attaches great importance to the crew of "Infernal Affairs", because they all instinctively feel that they seem to have participated in a masterpiece that is difficult to come across. This kind of experience is not just a casual meal.
It’s so simple. Once you seize the opportunity, you may double your worth!
Just like the actors in "Crazy Stone", after playing the movie Stone, several protagonists, including several supporting roles, have become popular film and television actors. Many production directors are rushing to get them.
It's the change that a good drama brings to actors.
Therefore, many people are now beginning to believe that "Infernal Affairs" also has this potential!
"Si Qiang, how much box office do you think our movie will have in the end?"
When we are on the set, many actors will call each other by their character's name. This feels simpler and more convenient, and it is also quite cordial.
The actor who plays Silly Qiang is an actor Liu Qiangwei brought from the southern entertainment industry. He is pretty good and can at least reach the level of 70-80 in Chen Feng's impression.
Although Shaqiang's IQ is not high in the movie, he is not stupid in reality either.
"I can't say for sure... but I remember before the release of "Crazy Stone", the director seemed to have said that he hoped to have a box office of one billion, but in the end "Crazy Stone" got a total box office of about 1.8 billion... As for "Infernal Affairs"
"...I think it's probably at least a billion..."
After hearing what Shaqiang said, the actor who played Lin Guoping shook his head.
"Although I also think that the film "Infernal Affairs" should be very good, I always feel that it seems to be a bit too literary and dramatic. I don't know what the market response will be when it is finally released..."
Shaqiang thought for a while and said: "Not necessarily. Literary dramas can also be very good. Haven't we all seen it before? Maybe the audience will also like it... But how much do you think this film can win?
box office?"
Lin Guoping chuckled and said: "I think it's at least one billion..."
"Tch...then you were shaking your head just now..." Shaqiang gave Lin Guoping a middle finger.
"I'm just teasing you..."
"Be careful, I'll beat you up!"
…
While the two actors were whispering, Liu Qiangwei passed by behind them carrying a cup of coffee.
Vaguely, Liu Qiangwei also heard the two of them guessing about the final box office of "Infernal Affairs".
One billion...
If the final box office of "Infernal Affairs" can reach 1 billion, then this movie will be considered a big profit.
After all, the current total investment in the movie is only about 40 million, with a box office of 1 billion. The producer will eventually receive about 400 million from the theaters, which is almost ten times the investment.
It's really enviable.
If... he had chosen to get money based on the movie's box office share, as a director, he should have been able to get something like 2%. Calculated based on the net profit, after deducting the movie's production and distribution expenses and various tax expenses, he ended up almost
I can get... more than five million.
Five million versus one and a half million!
What a big loss.
But there was no sad look on Liu Qiangwei's face.
After all, when the contract was signed, the 1.5 million had already been sent to him in advance according to his request.
The money has helped him solve some problems at home, so now he can work with more peace of mind.
As for the more than five million he might earn... no matter how much money he has, it can't solve his immediate needs, so he doesn't regret it much now.
He is a man who can handle things clearly.
But the only thing that made him feel a little guilty was that Mai Zizhao only took 1.5 million due to his influence. This was actually a huge loss for Mai Zizhao.
But Mai Zizhao is one of his own after all. Although there is a loss this time, he will definitely find a way to help him make up for it in the future.
Liu Qiangwei can still do what he says he wants to do.
Of course, if the movie "Infernal Affairs" can really get more than 1 billion in box office, then Liu Qiangwei's value as a director will naturally rise. Even if this movie makes less, his new movies will also be in the future.
With a higher voice and account sharing ratio, these are more meaningful.
Therefore, Liu Qiangwei's mentality was very stable and did not waver at all.
Anyway, let’s finish filming the film first!
…
By mid-August, the film market has begun to become lively.
The science fiction blockbuster invested by Beidou Entertainment has begun publicity and promotion work, and some related news reports often appear on the hot topic list.
Although there are no outstanding works in Chinese-language films on the subject of science fiction films, everyone knows that this subject actually has great potential and market. After all, every year there are some imported science fiction films that take away a lot of box office. Everyone knows that this subject has great potential and market.
Very jealous.
But everyone also knows that science fiction movies are really difficult to make, require high investment, and are also risky. Except for large entertainment companies like Beidou Entertainment that have the courage to invest in this genre, other companies or capital sources do not have the courage.
This time, Beidou Entertainment hired the well-known domestic science fiction master Tian Ming as the screenwriter for this science fiction film, and he created a new script.
Tian Ming is currently the only best-selling science fiction writer in China. Because of the niche nature of the science fiction genre, most science fiction novels are not popular. Only Tian Ming's works are currently very popular, and the sales of his novels are also very high, especially on the Internet.
It is widely circulated.
However, although Tian Ming is very famous now, many of his works had the full copyright sold to other companies at low prices in his early years. Therefore, although he is now popular, the income from his works is not actually high.
This also made Tian Ming a little depressed.
Fortunately, some of the new works he has written in recent years have sold for good prices, and this time Beidou Entertainment directly asked him to be a screenwriter, and also gave him a not-low price.
With Tian Ming's reputation as a master of science fiction novels, Beidou Entertainment's science fiction film has a gimmick to promote it. In recent times, Tian Ming and Beidou Entertainment have frequently appeared on the hot topic list.
Many readers and viewers are also looking forward to this.
After all, it is the first large-scale domestically produced science fiction film, and everyone hopes they can get off to a good start.
However, so far, there is still too little information about this film. Apart from some conceptual things and some stills, there is no complete trailer yet.
But the more this happens, the more interested some science fiction fans and movie fans become. Many people even start to speculate directly from some of Tian Ming's previous works what this new film will be like.
It has to be said that the power of netizens is still very powerful. After some people's analysis, combined with the stills that have been exposed, they can guess the general type of the movie.
…
"This is supposed to be an interstellar voyage type science fiction movie. According to a short story related to cosmic psychology that Tian Ming wrote six years ago, this concept will be used this time. It is about the psychology of human beings during interstellar voyages.
Exploring the problem of mutation..."
"This setting is very interesting, science fiction, psychological horror and suspense... it should be quite exciting."
"However, I am also a little worried that the hard science fiction part will be weakened and turned into a psychological suspense film disguised as science fiction?"
"Probably not. If you look at the spacesuit in the stills, it is very sophisticated in design. It is obviously a scene from outer space."
"I hope this film can be a good start for Chinese science fiction movies!"
…
Chen Feng also browsed some related inquiries. Chen Feng still admired Beidou Entertainment's courage to try to shoot science fiction films. After all, he also knew that it is really difficult to make science fiction blockbusters, and some of them failed at the box office.
Perhaps, this kind of explorer is really admirable.
At the same time, Chen Feng also knows that with the development of the film market, the development of the film industry, and the development of science and technology and brokerage levels, science fiction blockbusters may indeed become one of the more mainstream themes in the future.
I just hope that the practitioners of Chinese-language films can be prepared before this phenomenon occurs!
