In the original version of Cat Demon, there was no explanation of what happened when Yang Yuhuan woke up from the coffin. Instead, he was given a coffin board covered with bloodstains and scratches, and a graceful and luxurious rotting corpse.
Guo Jingming has now restored this scene, giving Yang Yuhuan the opportunity to talk to Danlong after waking up.
Taking a closer look, Fang Jing discovered that Guo Jingming filmed nine scenes in total. No wonder he had to work overtime all night to shoot. In comparison, Lao Chen's scene was really cutting corners.
Just as everyone was watching the wonderful scene, an English song started playing.
That's right, Bailong and Danlong are stirring up emotion, and the background music is playing, and it's still an English song.
What an English song! This is the Tang Dynasty! It’s in ancient costume!
Is there any drama in an instant?
Zhao Wei smiled evilly and whispered to Guo Jingming: "Xiaosi, who do you have a grudge against? Recommending such an English song to you is simply a big mistake."
"Ahem." After a dry cough, Guo Jingming was embarrassed and said nothing.
He chose this English song and thought it was quite appropriate for the occasion. Now, just look at the audience's reaction and you will know that they have no taste!
"Okay, I've finished reading the works of both groups. Do you have anything to say?"
"Very good, both directors are very good." Zhao Wei started to say something nonsense, "It can be seen that there are many scenes of Xiao Si. I heard that they were all shot in different scenes. Some of the dialogue actors in the scene did not have any dialogue at all.
It’s very difficult not to be together.”
"I admire Xiaosi very much for this. The filming alone takes a lot of time, and the post-editing also means he didn't sleep all night."
There are so many shots and scenes. It was already midnight when we finished shooting. It was already dawn after editing. Can you sleep?
"Yes, I have an idea." Brother Chen Kai said with a smile.
He didn't like the famous director Guo Jing's "Cat Demon" because nothing changed from beginning to end. He just picked out a few points to play. The most annoying thing was that he added an English song at the end.
Li Shaohong's comment was the same as Zhao Wei's. He didn't say whether it was good or not. He avoided the important points and just praised the actor for being able to endure hardships and the director for being very patient.
"The first one is a duel between Director Guo Jingming and Director Chen Kaige. Now the three hundred public judges can vote. Those who vote for Director Guo press the blue button in their hands, and those who vote for Director Chen press the red button."
Following Wang Han's words, Guo Jingming became nervous, holding the pen and staring at the screen, not letting go of anything.
The color suddenly changes, blue rises rapidly, stops at 158 after a few seconds, and red 142!
"yeah!!"
"We won!"
Xiao Zan smiled, and the other two team members couldn't help shouting that they had sixteen more votes than the river of sadness, and as expected, they were almost guaranteed to win.
The corner of Guo Jingming's mouth raised, but he didn't get too carried away. He focused on the twenty-one professional film critics. Each of these people had two votes, which added up to forty-two votes.
"Twenty-one film critics are invited to start voting." Wang Han announced.
After a few seconds, all 21 people voted. Guo Jingming received 24 votes and Chen Kaige received 18 votes.
Guo Jingming’s overwhelming victory!
The two teams participating in the performance came on stage. Brother Chen Kai smiled reluctantly, while Liu Junfeng, Shen Mengchen, and Cheng Ruoxuan had no smiles at all. The frost-beaten eggplants were silent.
He lost, he lost to Guo Jingming, who is a professional in bad movies, and his team member was a newcomer like Xiao Zan who had not acted many times.
If they lose to Zhao Wei, they will feel better.
Standing in the middle, Wang Han said: "The winning director has 100 votes, and the losing director has 50 votes. Now please vote for your team members. Based on the number of votes, we will later decide who will leave and who will stay."
"Do you want to invest now?" Brother Chen Kai was in a daze while holding the notebook.
"Yes, vote now."
The two directors picked up a pen and wrote the number of votes behind the names of the participating team members. Brother Chen Kai only had fifty votes and had to be divided among three people.
Guo Jingming's side had one hundred votes, which gave him an absolute advantage.
Shen Mengchen and others were more nervous than the director. She was one step behind at the beginning, and the chance of getting up later was slim. If Chen Kai didn't give her a vote, she would have cried to death in the toilet, and she would have just given up in the later stage.
Holding his chin and looking at Xiao Zan who was standing uneasily on the stage, Fang Jing frowned slightly. This was a bit unfair.
Xiao Zan has very few roles, and most of them are with another boy. He doesn't even have half of the roles. He is said to be the second male lead, but based on his role, he would probably be ranked seventh and eighth male.
In other words, there are only two boys in this scene and he is the second male lead.
When voting, the director must vote for the actor who has made the greatest contribution. If others eat meat, Xiao Zan's soup will not be able to get it.
"Now I announce the cast votes, Cheng Ruoxuan has fifteen votes, Liu Junfeng has fifteen votes, Shen Mengchen has twenty votes, Song Yunhua has thirty votes, Xiao Zan has forty votes, and Huang Junjie has thirty votes."
Huh? Fang Jing's eyes widened. Guo Jingming actually gave Xiao Zan forty votes. This is a bit unscientific!
On the stage, Guo Jingming said: "Everyone contributed to this scene. Xiao Zan himself has a small role, which is unfair to him, so I gave him ten more votes."
Chen Kaige: "Shen Mengchen was the one who had the hardest time filming. I gave him the extra ten votes. The other two had the same number of votes, so no one suffered a loss."
"This is quite fair." Yan Yalun said in a low voice.
They were all a group of students, and the director did not favor one over the other. Xiao Zan had fewer scenes and had fewer opportunities for performance and exposure than others. Guo Jingming gave him ten more votes to compensate.
Shen Mengchen did dozens of exercises a day while everyone else was resting. She kept practicing alone, and Brother Chen Kai also gave her five more votes.
The director led his students off the stage, and Guo Jingming nodded towards the scenic spot, as if to say, do you think I am interesting?
…
In the first game, two directors competed against each other, but Brother Chen Kai lost. The second game started, this time it was Zhao Wei and Li Shaohong, a pair of teachers and students.
In order to film "Youth", Zhao Wei once went to Nortel to audition for a film directed by Li Shaohong. She was given a lecture by Li Shaohong. It was said that she sat too far forward and often asked questions. Li Shaohong made her sit in the back with a shameful face.
I can't even teach my own students, so how can I have the time to teach you an auditor? Forget about auditing, you don't have any eyesight, just sit at the front, where do you want the other students to sit?
Zhao Wei, who was already famous at that time, didn't dare to say a word and sat in the back row dejectedly. The youth in the back was so hot that Zhao Wei completely turned around and the matter between the two became a good talk.
Zhao Wei had a hard study experience, and Li Shaohong gained a "proud disciple."
“Let’s enjoy director Zhao Wei’s Daming Palace poem!”
Zhao Wei adapted Li Shaohong's Daming Palace poem. She changed a costume drama into a modern drama, and the original Xue Shao and Taiping became handsome men and beauties wearing skirts and casual jackets.
The male protagonist is still an artist from her company.
Li Shaohong did not remake Zhao Wei's works because there were not many of them, so she chose the works that Zhao Wei had acted in.
The final result was also unexpected. Li Shaohong lost, and the votes of Zhang Mingen, who was in her group, also dropped, losing half of the votes of others. The same happened to Yang Zi, both of whom were in the same team.
Li Shaohong is not Guo Jingming. Her number of votes is already small, so of course she gives priority to her family.
