Chapter 575 I am looking forward to your performance
"New... brother!"
"Oh, Tangtang, you're here, long time no see!"
He Xin smiled and said hello to her, and at the same time nodded to the agent named Anna who was following her.
Tang Wei breathed a sigh of relief and immediately smiled and said: "Brother Xin, congratulations on winning the Huabiao Award."
I have to say that she has grown a lot over the past year.
"Thank you. I received your text message last night. I didn't reply immediately. I'm sorry!" He Xin always behaved very politely.
Politeness can be a form of courtesy, but for a pair of former friends, it is more of an alienation.
Tang Wei seemed to have anticipated this result, pursed his lips, and then shouted to Chang Jihong: "Sister Hong."
Then he smiled and nodded to Tong Yali, who had already stood up and looked at her with eyes full of little stars: "You are Yaya, right? I've heard people talk about you a long time ago, saying that you dance very well!"
When he said it was good, Tang Wei glanced at He Xin intentionally or unintentionally, but unfortunately the other party didn't respond.
Although Tang Wei has appeared in many TV series before, her influence was generally not high. Before "Lust, Caution" was released, she was still just a little actor unknown to the audience.
But everyone in the industry knows that being able to play the heroine role in Li Yu's movie is definitely a big hit. A vivid example of Zhang Ziyi is right in front of her, in "My Father and Mother", a national teacher.
Li Yu's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" finally broke into an international chapter.
Now everyone is full of envy and jealousy towards this lucky girl.
Of course, those who are jealous of Tang Wei are all popular little actors who think they can also play the role of Wang Jiazhi well; while young actors like Tong Yali are even more envious, they all hope that they can rise to the top like Tang Wei in the future.
Although Tong Yali is already quite lucky and is also the object of envy and jealousy among her peers, she is still much worse than Tang Wei.
The rookie said with excitement on his face: "Sister Tang Wei, I often hear Sister Haohao talk about you and say that your acting is amazing."
"No way, only good ones are great..."
Two people who met for the first time actually sat down and chatted hand in hand.
When Sister Hong saw this, she immediately smiled like a gratified aunt. She was very happy to see her two actresses with great potential and who were about to become big stars acting as close as sisters.
However, this scene also reminded her of Wang Ruodan, whom she was very optimistic about and devoted to training into a big Qingyi. This girl should be said to have very good resources. As soon as she debuted, she appeared in several TV series produced by Hairun under her arrangement. Although not
She is the leading female lead, but the roles should be said to be outstanding, but it is a pity that the response of these TV series is mediocre.
It was not easy to star in the youth emotional drama "Struggle" directed by Zhao Baogang, and this drama was very popular when it premiered on the Shanghai TV Drama Channel, but when it was released to the stars, "Good Death" coincided with "Latent"
, his body was crushed to pieces.
They are also the third female lead, one of them was very popular in "Latent", and the other was lackluster. And compared to the one-sided praise of "Latent", "Struggle" was quite controversial.
In fact, "Struggle" in the original time and space was still very popular at the beginning. It was once touted as a super inspirational TV series and a bible for the post-80s generation. But now, under the background of "Latent", the plot is not grounded and the pretentiousness is not
Taking responsibility as having character, treating coquettishness as struggle, tampering with reality to create the illusion of prosperity, covering up the true living conditions of most post-80s generation, weakening the qualifications and recognition of vulnerable groups, etc. These shortcomings are undoubtedly evident.
For example, some commentators said that the luxurious scenes in the play and the characters' lavish consumption methods are just a history of enjoyment and fun, and it has become a typical pseudo-realistic drama.
What's more, they describe this drama as a "poisonous milk" and believe that its leading ideas are all five poisons. It praises speculation, must have milk to be a mother, promotes rational economic man, beautifies power rent-seeking, identifies with hierarchical society, shows off wealth and hates the poor.
Praising beauty first, evading responsibilities, vilifying ideals, and singing cynicism...
Yes, it’s all up and running.
But it has to be denied that this drama is in sharp contrast to the spirit of advocating faith and sacrifice embodied in "Latent". It was criticized by the wise people of society for a while. The audience originally just watched it for fun, but as long as
Someone set the pace, so they followed suit. Not only did the ratings plummet, but the reputation also plummeted.
Thinking of this, Sister Hong couldn't help but sigh: Time is also fate!
At this time, Tang Wei's agent Anna greeted He Xin politely, and reported to Sister Hong with a cautious look on her face: "Mr. Chang, there may be changes in Tang Wei's schedule?"
"What's wrong? What's changed?"
Chang Jihong was stunned. The flight tickets and everything had been booked and he was leaving tomorrow. Why had there been any changes?
"Well, I just received a call from Sir Jiang this morning. Sir Jiang meant that it would be best for Tang Wei to go to Hong Kong first, and then go to Venice with Sir Jiang himself, including Wang Lihong, and director Li Eucalyptus."
While reporting, the young manager carefully peeked at his boss's face.
Sure enough, Chang Jihong frowned when he heard this and said dissatisfied: "We are leaving tomorrow, why are we notifying you at this time?"
"Well, I think it's quite sudden. Sir Jiang suddenly called me personally early this morning."
Sir Jiang, as the agent calls him, is one of the producers of "Lust, Caution". He is also a close friend of Li Eucalyptus, the boss of Hong Kong Anle Film Company, and the famous short-legged Jiang Ershao.
Although Chang Jihong was very dissatisfied with this sudden arrangement, she also knew that Li Yu's arrival in Venice would definitely be pursued by the media around the world, which was a good thing for Tang Wei.
Just like when "My Father and Mother" won the Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival, Zhang Ziyi, wearing a red bellyband, unexpectedly walked to the stage with the national teacher to receive the award, making the world aware of this ambitious actress in one fell swoop
It's all written on the face of the Chinese actress, thus achieving an international chapter.
After Tang Wei finished filming "Lust, Caution", Chang Jihong completely copied Zhang Ziyi's model of becoming famous that year. She lay dormant first and tried to avoid exposure, waiting for "Lust, Caution" to become a blockbuster after it was released. Of course, this Venice Film Festival is a God-given opportunity.
, it is entirely possible to copy another "International Soup" after the International Chapter.
"Xiaotang, what do you think?"
Sister Hong asked Tang Wei for his opinion.
Tang Wei, who was chatting with Tong Yali, raised his head and said casually: "I can do anything, I will follow your arrangements."
It sounds like he is very well-behaved and obedient.
Sister Hong smiled and said: "Since Mr. Jiang has arrangements, that would be great. After all, the opportunity is rare. In this case, I will ask someone to book your flight tickets. You'd better rush there in the afternoon."
"Uh, okay!" Tang Wei replied readily.
He Xin, who was replying to a text message with his head down, looked up inadvertently and saw Tang Wei inadvertently exchanging glances with his executive agent Anna, and then a hint of joy flashed across Anna's face.
Although He Xin was a little confused, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The entertainment industry was indeed a big mess. Now even Tang Wei, a silly elder sister in his mind, has learned to play tricks.
He subconsciously glanced at the back of Sister Hong, who was happily walking out to find someone to book tickets for them. For some reason, he suddenly felt an ominous premonition.
There are frequent flights between Beijing and Hong Kong, and air tickets can be arranged quickly.
"You two, don't stay here. Go back and get ready. We'll meet again then. I'll help you bring the dress and everything."
After finishing her busy work, Sister Hong began to chase people away.
Tang Wei stood up obediently, and said goodbye to He Xin at the same time: "Brother Xin, let's go first, and we'll see you again when we get to Venice."
"Okay, goodbye! I'm also looking forward to seeing your performance in Venice." He Xin stood up and said with a smile.
The film festival opened on the 29th, and "Lust, Caution" premiered on the 30th. As for his "A Tale of Two Donkeys", the organizer arranged for it to premiere on September 5th, the day before the closing ceremony.
The mainland film in the competition, "The Sun Also Rises," was released one day later on September 3.
As the last film to appear in the main competition unit, to be honest, the film schedule is really not that good. Not only does it leave a short time for the media to ferment, but it also has many disadvantages in terms of film promotion. So when the film festival premiered the film,
In addition to being disappointed, He Xin also relaxed a lot from his originally tense state of mind.
At most, he is just a companion. Fortunately, he has been shortlisted for the main competition. The overseas profits alone are enough to recoup the investment, and maybe even make a small profit. As for the domestic box office, he doesn't care too much.
But when He Xin said that he was looking forward to her performance, Tang Wei's face suddenly turned red, and he muttered in a voice like a mosquito: "As long as you don't laugh at me then..."
"What?"
He Xin didn't hear clearly for a while.
"Oh, it's okay, new brother. Bye!" Tang Wei immediately calmed down and waved to him.
"OK Bye Bye!"
This time, Sister Hong definitely made a big budget and launched a big campaign. She was accompanied to Venice by makeup artists, costume designers, professional photographers, including Xiang Anna and Tong Yali's executive agents, etc.
There are a huge team of nearly ten people in total, and the travel expenses, food, drinks, and toilets for these people alone may cost 100,000 euros.
Of course, most of these people work for Tang Wei, and at the same time, Tong Yali, a little rookie, can also get some light by the way.
