Although sitting on this curved sofa was a bit awkward, Chen Feng had no choice but to endure it in order to record this show.
At 2:30 in the afternoon, the recording work officially started.
First, an introduction video about Chen Feng was played on the big screen behind the sofa, and then amidst the warm applause of the audience, a conversation between Chen Feng and the host Liu Lu began.
"Everyone is very curious, how did you achieve such outstanding results and complete the counterattack in life in just a few months? Can you tell us about it?"
Liu Lu is a very intellectual woman. She is not very beautiful, but she is good-looking. She is in her thirties and is well-known in the country. She is also different from other hosts' rigid interview format, but is frank, natural and real.
Known for her gentle interview style, some celebrities will be the first to consider appearing on her show for the sake of exposure and publicity.
Su Qian must have chosen Chen Feng to record this program because of her interview and dialogue style.
After the two of them sat down on the sofa together, she didn't make any polite remarks. After the opening video was played, it was like chatting with friends at home or in a tea restaurant.
"To be honest, the reason why I achieved these results is because of my talent and wisdom." Chen Feng also acted a little unreasonably, and said such seemingly conceited and arrogant words as soon as he opened his mouth. Not only the audience at the scene were shocked
I was stunned, and so was the host Liu Lu.
However, Chen Feng immediately said with a smile: "I'm just kidding. To be honest, I never dreamed that I could achieve such results. I can only say that I have better luck, and the overall literary and artistic environment in China is also very good."
Yes, with a little talent and talent on my part, we have achieved such results."
Only then did everyone react and laugh together.
Liu Lu also smiled and said: "Actually, I think the first sentence you just said is what you really mean. I personally agree with it. You can make two movies with a box office of over 100 million in just a few months.
The second part of the film also set a new box office record. If such impressive results were just luck, no one would believe it. It mainly depends on your talent and wisdom. Especially these two films were written and written by you.
It's true that you are talented because you are the director and you act in it, so you don't have to be modest."
Liu Lu's words of praise were not meant to be exaggerated or complimentary. She was very sincere. It was natural for everyone to hear this because it was the truth.
However, this is how Chinese people are. It is difficult for Chen Feng to speak out publicly about these facts. Speaking out would be tantamount to arrogance. If others say it, it will not matter.
"Thank you, thank you." Chen Feng did not pretend to be humble this time, he just thanked Liu Lu.
"Your talent is obvious to all. Not only in movies, but also in music. Not only have you personally composed and performed many good songs, but you have also written songs for other people. For example, Liu Qinfei's "Tell You Softly", and
For example, there are several songs by Meng Tingting such as "Conquer", "Seeing Flowers in the Smoke", and "Smiling Over". I heard that you have a good relationship with them, right?"
Chen Fengxin said that my relationship with them was very normal, but of course he could only say: "Yes. They and I are all friends."
Liu Lu smiled and said: "I also heard that you usually only write songs for people you approve of or have good relationships with. Is this true?"
Chen Feng was not embarrassed about this, he just nodded with a smile and said: "I cherish the songs I wrote. Of course I can't easily give the songs to people I don't know to sing."
"Okay, today we have invited two friends of Chen Feng, Meng Tingting and Liu Qinfei. Welcome."
When Liu Lu said this, the audience immediately became excited, cheering and applauding. If based on the popularity of the audience, there is no doubt that Meng Tingting, the new singer, is more famous. After all, Chen Feng's two movies
The movie has been released long ago, but Meng Tingting's songs are still sung in the streets.
Liu Lu really made a surprise attack on Chen Feng. He didn't expect that the program team would invite these two women. Chen Feng really didn't know anything about it beforehand.
The two women walked onto the stage one after another, and after shaking hands with Liu Lu one by one, they sat next to Chen Feng on the left and right. The two women looked at him with meaningful eyes.
, with a smile on his lips, making Chen Feng feel uncomfortable for a while.
Liu Lu said: "I believe many people know that Liu Qinfei invested in Chen Feng's first movie "The Man from the Earth". At this point, Liu Qinfei can be said to be Chen Feng's boss."
Liu Qinfei said with a smile: "Bole or something, it's not that exaggerated. Chen Feng and I actually knew each other at that time, we met while filming "The Gunslinger". At that time, I had a very good impression of Chen Feng. He was originally in
He was just a bit player in the crew, but he still stood out. He was quickly appreciated by Director Wang Weidong, who gave him a small role and gave him a very wonderful performance. At that time, everyone in the crew knew him and thought his acting skills were very good.
, will definitely succeed in the future. But obviously no one expected that Chen Feng would become famous so quickly."
Liu Lu interjected and asked, "Didn't you expect that too?"
Liu Qinfei nodded and said: "Yes. Because Chen Feng knew me. Later he took the initiative to find me for investment. After I read the script of "This Man" he wrote, I admired and liked it very much, and he only wanted an investment of 500,000.
So, I agreed without much thought."
Liu Qinfei did not completely tell the truth here. The main reason why she invested at that time was because she was interested in Chen Feng's music creation ability and wanted to buy songs from him. The second reason was to cherish talent. And 500,000 was indeed considered a good deal for her.
Not a lot of money.
Liu Lu asked with a smile: "At that time, you must not have thought that his movie with hundreds of thousands of investments would have a box office of hundreds of millions, right?"
Liu Qinfei smiled and said: "Yes. I never thought of it in my dreams. This is too exaggerated and surprising to me. Of course, I am also very happy at the same time. To be honest, it was always worth it for me to invest in Chen Feng's debut.
Something to be proud of.”
Liu Qinfei said it seriously, and the audience gave her warm applause.
"Chen Feng, what were you thinking at the time? Why did you go to Liu Qinfila to invest? You and she were not that familiar at the time, right?" Liu Lu turned to Chen Feng and asked.
Chen Feng told the truth: "I didn't have many friends here in Beijing at that time, and I didn't even have any rich friends. I didn't know many rich people at that time, and I barely knew only two. One of them was my original resident singer.
Liu Jincheng, the owner of the other side bar, Boss Liu, and the other one is Sister Fei. I was looking for Sister Fei at the beginning, and planned to go to Boss Liu if she refused. As a result, I didn’t expect that Sister Fei would only briefly read the script.
I agreed.”
Liu Lu said with a smile: "When you say that, I feel sorry for that Boss Liu. He missed a good opportunity to gain both fame and fortune. If you had been the first to find him at that time, nothing would have happened to Liu Qinfei.
Then why didn't you go to Boss Liu first?"
Chen Feng shrugged and said: "Sister Fei was closer to me at that time, but Boss Liu was a little far away."
Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard this.
Liu Lu said with a smile: "It seems that this is fate. Liu Qinfei's luck is better than Boss Liu."
Liu Qinfei also smiled and said: "I really didn't know about this before. It seems that my luck is better than Boss Liu."
At this time, another introductory video was played on the big screen at the back, introducing the film "This Man" which has achieved remarkable results, including domestic box office, and winning the Sutherland Award at the Fog International Film Festival, which is the best
Debut Film Award. This is the first time that their director from Tang Dynasty has won this award.
Moreover, the gold content of this award is worthy of recognition. Even if it is not as good as the awards from the three major European film festivals, it is not too far behind. At least in Datang, it is completely worthy.
"How did you feel when you won the Sutherland Award?" Liu Lu asked.
After recalling it for a moment, Chen Feng said: "I was really surprised at first. Because this award is a grand prize for the Fogdu International Film Festival, and its gold content is the second highest, second only to the best of the film festival.
Film Award. As a Tang Dynasty director, winning such an award is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss it, it will be gone. Because this award is to recognize a director's debut film. Every director has only one chance.
I was very lucky to win it. This is like the Grammy Award for Best New Artist, an opportunity that European and American singers only get once in a lifetime."
"Let's see your acceptance speech."
Following Liu Lu's voice, the picture of Chen Feng winning the Sutherland Award was played on the big screen.
After the play ended, Liu Lu sighed: "Your English is really good. I feel it's even better than those from other countries. Did you learn this English by yourself?"
"Of course." Chen Feng could only say this at this time, "Actually, I have been interested in English since I was in junior high school. Even after I dropped out of school, I have been studying."
Liu Lu sincerely praised: "You are really amazing. If most people dropped out of school when you were so young, they would not have the perseverance and energy to learn so many things by themselves. Not only music, but also acting and directing.
Ability, as well as screenwriting ability. These all require extraordinary talent and hard work."
The audience at the scene also expressed heartfelt applause to Chen Feng.
"While you were filming the movie, you also wrote a song for Liu Qinfei as the title song of her album. Can you tell us about it?"
Liu Qinfei first said: "I invited him to sing the song. He has released many songs on the Internet before, and I like them all. It happened that my company wanted me to release a record, so I thought of Chen Feng and asked him
He invited me to sing. He was reluctant at first. Then he wrote me a song after I forced him to do it."
Everyone at the scene burst into laughter.
Chen Feng immediately defended: "I'm not reluctant. It's just that good songs are hard to write, especially songs that suit you. Plus, I was busy preparing for the filming of my second movie at the time and was in a tight schedule, so I delayed it a little bit.
For a moment.”
Liu Lu nodded and said, "That's understandable. It later proved that the song "Tell You Softly" written by Chen Feng was very suitable for you. You, a newcomer in the music scene, became an instant hit with this song."
Liu Qinfei smiled and said: "That's true. But compared to how generous he was to Sister Ting, he was very stingy to me. He wrote 5 songs for Sister Ting in one breath, but I only had one."
Chen Feng said angrily: "You can't blame me for this. At that time, you only wanted one song, and there was no shortage of songs."
Liu Qinfei looked jealous and said: "I don't care anyway. You have to write songs for me in my new album from now on."
Chen Feng smiled and said nothing.
Meng Tingting, who had not spoken at the side, finally spoke this time: "Feifei, you really can't blame Chen Feng for this matter. Why did you only ask him for one song? And I told him the more the better. After all,
, you still didn’t trust his music creation ability enough at the beginning. But I have always trusted him.”
Liu Qinfei pouted and said, "You didn't ask for it because you saw the song "Tell You Softly" he wrote for me became popular all over the country. Before me, you definitely wouldn't have had such courage."
Meng Tingting smiled and said: "As long as it is a good song, I want it. What's more, the songs Chen Feng sang before were all very good."
Liu Lu smiled and said: "It seems that you all have great appreciation and trust in Chen Feng as a creator. However, his main business now seems to be making movies, not writing songs. His first movie created
It is a miracle in the history of movies that a small amount of money can make a big difference, and the second movie directly created the highest box office record in the history of our Tang Dynasty movies."
As she finished speaking, the big screen behind them started playing again. This time it was a series of achievements in "Sherlock's Sorrows".
"One film made you famous, two films reached the top. Did you ever think that you would create such a miracle?"
Chen Feng shook his head and said: "I never thought about it. I only knew that "Charlotte" is a funny and good movie, but I never thought that it would directly break the previous box office record. I can only say that I met a very good person.
movie era and a large audience that loves movies.”
"Qin Fei also starred in this movie, and she performed in her true colors. Qin Fei, did you ever think that you would achieve such good results?"
Liu Qinfei also shook her head and said: "I never thought about it. However, after the box office success of his first movie, I have more confidence in him. So I also invested a little in this movie. The result did not disappoint me."
Liu Lu said with envy: "You are so lucky. Of course, you have better vision. You have always trusted Chen Feng so much, so you have received the rewards you deserve." At this point, she turned to Chen Feng and asked, "Chen Feng
, how did you think of letting Qin Fei play herself in your movie?"
Chen Feng said: "This was mainly to add some jokes. At that time, I originally thought about asking a more famous female singer to star, such as Sister Ting. But after Sister Fei read the script, she had to play this role, and I couldn't
I can only let her act."
"Fuck you." Liu Qinfei looked a little annoyed and stretched out her hand to hit Chen Feng on the arm. "You obviously wanted me to act. Why did I steal the show?"
Chen Feng said with an innocent face: "I originally planned to hire a singer who was more famous than you at the time. After all, you have just released an album. How famous can you compare with those veteran singers who have been famous for a long time?"
Liu Qinfei was speechless for a while, pouting and acting cute. Chen Feng couldn't help but sigh that she really knows how to act.
The way the two friends joked and interacted with each other made the audience burst into laughter. The effect of the show was indeed very good.
People who don't know, just by looking at their interactions, would think that they must be very close to each other in private.
