Looking at Xu Zheng hiding his face and walking away, Tang Yan and Yang Mi looked at each other, and then laughed out loud at the same time.
"Yue Guan, you are so shady Xu Zheng, will you be okay?"
"No, actually I don't criticize him. Although Xu Zheng is already very popular, after he plays the role of Wu Liuqi, he will definitely become more popular."
"I believe that." Yang Mi nodded: "Xu Zheng's acting skills and popularity are already very high, and Wu Liuqi's character is actually very good, and he is very popular."
"I'm afraid Xu Zheng can't play this kind of role." Tang Yan said: "He really doesn't fit well with the image of an assassin."
"Assassins have no image, and there is no compatibility or discord. If Xu Zheng plays the role well, he will be the image of an assassin."
Yue Guan was not worried about this problem.
Under normal circumstances, if the role of Zhu Yu comes first, then later comers need to worry about whether the audience will accept it.
If there is no successful precedent before, then there is no rule.
So Yue Guan didn't play Li Shimin, he chose to play Li Zhi.
The 90% effect of Li Shimin's performance may not make the audience think that Yue Guan's performance is particularly good, because there are too many veteran actors who have played Li Shimin.
But as long as Li Zhi performs with an effect of 85 points, many audiences will think that his performance is particularly good.
Because there are not many capable actors who have played the role of Li Zhi.
The same goes for the image of assassins, especially assassins like Wu Liuqi.
This kind of assassin with an unparalleled image appears for the first time. He can be funny, domineering, or bald...
The role that appears in front of the audience for the first time does not actually require any other image, as long as the performance is good.
As for Xu Zheng's acting skills, Yue Guan still has confidence.
I have more confidence in his directing skills.
It turns out that this confidence is well-founded.
The third day.
Xu Zheng basically understood the role of Wu Liuqi, memorized all the lines, and then started filming.
In the first season, his scenes were basically opposite Yue Guan, and every time he was helping Yue Guan get his hair cut.
In the first season, Xu Zheng and Yue Guan were basically the acting actors in the show.
The two of them filmed opposite each other for the first time, attracting a crowd of spectators.
What are the results after the onlookers:
Yang Mi looked at Tang Yan: "I actually feel that Yue Guan has been suppressed."
Tang Yan thought he had an illusion: "So Mimi, you think so too."
"Xu Zheng's acting skills are so good? Yue Guan won the Golden Dragon Award for Best Actor." Yang Mi was surprised.
In fact, she didn't feel that Yue Guan's performance was particularly bad.
Mainly because Xu Zheng's performance was particularly good.
It's the kind of thing that's easy to handle.
Tang Yan sighed: "This may be the reason why Yue Guan values Xu Zheng. Yue Guan told me that his bargaining chip to attract Xu Zheng to join the drama "The Gatekeeper of the World" was to give Xu Zheng a movie that could make him emperor. The script, this shows that in Yue Caring, Xu Zheng has always been able to win the Best Actor, but he just didn't get it."
There is no shortage of talented actors in the entertainment industry.
But there are only a few best actors every year.
An actor who has not won the Best Actor is not necessarily worse than an actor who has won the Best Actor.
Winning awards is still affected by many factors.
The two women refreshed their understanding of Xu Zheng's acting skills.
With Xu Zheng's acting skills, it is obviously not difficult to complete the role of Wu Liuqi.
In fact, it is really not difficult.
Compared with Wu Liuqi and Cheng Yong, the protagonist of "I'm Not the God of Medicine", the difficulty has dropped by at least two levels.
For actors like Xu Zheng and Yue Guan whose acting skills have reached a certain level, it is not difficult at all.
In the minds of Tang Yan and Yang Mi, Xu Zheng performed better than Yue Guan.
But in Xu Zheng's mind, Yue Guan didn't act seriously at all.
There were very few Xu Zheng's scenes in the first season. Yue Guan let Yang Yi focus on shooting Xu Zheng's scenes first, and they were all filmed in two days.
After the filming, Yue Guan invited Xu Zheng to have a meal.
Although Yue Guan was not worried that Xu Zheng would run off the pirate ship, he still had to comfort him when it was time to comfort him.
"Thank you, Brother Zheng, for supporting me. Come on, I'll offer you a drink to Brother Zheng." Yue Guan took the initiative to offer Xu Zheng a glass of wine.
After Xu Zheng finished drinking, he shook his head helplessly: "Yue Guan, I was tricked into a pirate ship by you. I thought the guest appearance was just a TV series."
"It's one show, it's just divided into several seasons."
Xu Zheng: "..."
"Brother Zheng, don't forget that you are a man, and what a man said..."
Before Yue Guan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xu Zheng: "Stop, stop, I admit defeat, isn't it just a guest appearance? It's not enough for me to make a guest appearance. But if that movie is made, I will not make a free guest appearance. ah."
"Don't worry, when the movie is being made, Brother Zheng will be one of the leading actors, and he will receive the treatment he deserves."
Of course Yue Guan would not do something so tasteless.
He did take advantage this time.
But after Xu Zheng made all the guest appearances of the character Wu Liuqi in "The Gatekeepers of the World", in the drama "Secret War 1999", Wu Liuqi was basically treated as the protagonist of a group portrait.
The reward will be whatever it is due at that time, and Yue Guan will not be stingy.
Hearing what Yue Guan said, Xu Zheng nodded with satisfaction: "If "The Gatekeeper of the World" is successful, I guess the box office of that movie will not be bad."
"I don't think it's too bad, and the box office of "I'm Not the God of Medicine" won't be too bad either."
"Forget it about Medicine God. Realistic-themed movies won't do well at the box office. I'll be satisfied if I can get 100 million." Xu Zheng shook his head.
Yue Guan: "..."
In fact, there is nothing wrong with Xu Zheng's current understanding.
No one would have thought that a movie with a theme like "I'm Not the God of Medicine" would be a hit before it was released.
But it just exploded with quality.
If it weren't for the fact that this movie was so touching and tear-jerking that the audience wouldn't dare watch it twice, the box office of "I'm Not the God of Medicine" would have been even higher.
"Wolf Warrior 2", "The Wandering Earth", and "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" are actually not as well-received as "I'm Not the God of Medicine", but what these movies have in common is that there are many viewers who are willing to watch it a second time or even N brush.
This rarely happens in "I'm Not the God of Medicine".
Because the filming was so good, the audience didn’t want to watch it a second time.
In a sense, this is actually a great compliment.
What is even more commendable is that the actors in the movie "I Don't Want the God of Medicine" rarely shed tears, they are just telling stories. A truly touching movie should be like this. The actors didn't cry, but the audience did.
"Yue Guan, actually you are not very interested in dramas like "The Gatekeeper of the World". I feel like you didn't even use half of your acting skills." Xu Zheng said.
Yue Guan smiled: "It's not that I'm not careful, the focus is different. I don't want my acting skills to be too separated from the acting skills of the entire crew."
"Even if this kind of drama is well acted, it actually won't show very good acting skills." Xu Zheng shook his head: "The characters are too simple. It seems that your Wu Qi and my Wu Liuqi have experienced a lot, but It's too easy to play. Compared with Cheng Yong, the difficulty level is not at the same level. It's actually not interesting to play this kind of role."
Yue Guan: "..."
To be honest, he thought it was quite interesting.
I had filmed too many roles that required my full concentration, and suddenly a role appeared that I could relax in. Yue Guan was quite comfortable filming.
So Yue Guanyi said: "I think it's okay. It's impossible to explore the characters in every drama in depth."
"So I want to be my own director, shoot the characters I want to shoot, and tell the stories I want to tell." Xu Zheng drank more and talked more.
"Yue Guan, you are still young now. If you have the opportunity, you can try to be a director yourself. Being a director is different from being an actor. Relatively speaking, actors are still too passive."
"Directors don't necessarily take the initiative. I've filmed so many movies, but I've never seen a few directors who really follow their own will. Even Brother Zheng's "囧" is different from what you originally thought."
"It's definitely different. The filming of "囧囧" was a bit too deliberate. It was funny for the sake of being funny. There is still a lot of room for improvement." Xu Zheng said.
Yue Guan: "... Actually I think "囧" is very good. I went to the cinema to watch it and laughed many times. If a comedy movie can make the audience laugh, it is the greatest success."
Xu Zheng shook his head: "You are right, but as a director, you can't make a movie just to make the audience laugh. You must also bring some positive thoughts to the audience. This aspect is what "囧囧" lacks. .When I make another movie, I will strengthen my work in this area."
"Don't." Yue Guan blurted out: "The embarrassing series will be doomed."
Xu Zheng looked at Yue Guan in surprise: "Why do you say that?"
"Brother Zheng, you just make comedy movies and you just want to make the audience laugh. Why do you always want to educate the audience? The audience wants to be educated, why don't they read more books? Do they really want to watch your movie?"
What Yue Guan said was a bit rude.
But he didn't care either.
Keep working hard to move up, in order to make yourself have less and less scruples and let others have more and more scruples about you.
He has reached a certain status now, and if he restrains himself any longer, he will be torturing himself.
Yueguan doesn't have that kind of problem.
Besides, Yue Guan was speaking from his heart and was not deliberately going against Xu Zheng.
Xu Zheng disagreed with Yue Guan's words: "Yue Guan, this is a typical audience thinking, not a director's thinking. All directors have to tell their own stories. If a director can only make the audience laugh, then He will never become a master. Look at Feng Xiaogang. He was once known as the box office king when he made comedies before. What next? Film critics looked down on him at all. The Golden Dragon Awards did not send him invitations. Even though his movies had higher box office than Zhang Yimou, his status was inferior. Far."
Yue Guan sneered: "So Feng Xiaogang stopped making comedies and went to make literary films, and then he is no longer the box office king. Brother Zheng, the example you gave is the best proof."
"That's because Director Feng took the wrong path. He shouldn't focus on making literary films. I won't do that either, although I like watching literary films." Xu Zheng has his own plan: "What I want to do is to Add your own thoughts to comedy movies. Audiences like to watch comedy movies. It allows the audience to think and reflect on something while laughing. This is far more valuable than making the audience laugh. This is why I like "I'm Not the God of Medicine". Because of the script, if this script is filmed, it will definitely bring a lot of thinking and reflection to the audience."
"'I'm Not the God of Medicine' is not originally a comedy, so it should have this effect. If you make a comedy and the audience doesn't laugh after watching it, Brother Zheng, have you ever thought about the consequences?"
"I won't stop laughing. I will find a balance between comedy and literature." Xu Zhengxin said.
Yue Guan sighed softly: "Brother Zheng, just like your body shape, you have begun to swell. The success of "囧囧" is due to you making the audience laugh, not because you made the audience think."
"I can't film "囧囧" forever. When I filmed "囧囧", my foundation in the entertainment industry was not stable, so I had to establish myself first before talking about other things. The success of "囧囧" is not entirely my success. Huang Bo and Baobao also contributed a lot." Xu Zheng said.
"So you know."
"Of course I know, so I won't invite them again in my next "囧" series, and I won't do it for the sake of being funny. Yue Guan, how about we make a bet? The box office of my next "囧" series can surpass "Thai囧" "."
Yue Guan was not optimistic about his idea, which made Xu Zheng feel uncomfortable.
Yue Guan shook his head: "With the popularity bonus of "Thailand", as long as your next "囧" series is not too bad, the box office will not be too bad. If you really want to bet, I will bet you the third "囧" series. Series box office.”
Based on the quality of "囧Mom", if it could get a high box office when released normally, Yue Guan would rather believe that Shangguan Xingfeng suddenly has an online IQ.
But Xu Zheng didn't bet with him.
The third part is too far away, and Xu Zheng doesn’t know when he will be able to finish filming.
Xu Zheng chuckled and said, "You don't dare anymore."
Yue Guan glanced at Xu Zheng: "If you dare to let the second part of the Jon series compete with the second part of "Feng Shen" at the box office, see if I dare?"
Xu Zheng's eyes lit up: "What did you say? What if I win?"
Yue Guan was surprised: "Do you really dare to let the second part of the Jon series and the second part of "Fengshen" collide head-on?"
Xu Zheng was also surprised: "Yue Guan, you seem to have made a mistake."
"What's up?"
"The box office of "Journey to Thailand" is higher than that of "Feng Shen"."
Yue Guan: "..."
This is true.
When "Embarrassed in Thailand" was released, it followed Feng Xiaogang's "Private Customization" to take the top spot. There were no other hits at the same time, so it rode the wind and waves at the box office.
And "Fengshen" fought its way out of the trap of many Hollywood blockbusters.
Not counting the overseas box office, domestically speaking, the box office of "Fengshen" is really not as good as "The Journey to Thailand: Lost in Thailand".
No wonder Xu Zheng has this confidence.
"Yue Guan, do you dare to gamble?"
"Where's the bet?"
"If the box office of the second part of the "囧" series is higher than that of "Fengshen II", you can make a movie for me for free."
"What if I win?"
"I'll film another movie for you for free."
Yue Guan looked at the confident Xu Zheng and grinned: "Deal."
He has already thought about what scenes he wants to film.
When the time comes, he will make a film called "The Master of Expansion" to satirize directors who, after becoming famous, want to export their private goods to educate the audience.
Film them into a play and let the audience whip their corpses.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a box office hit or not.
Just for fun.
Take it out for the audience.
It's your business to keep young people young, but you still want the audience to pay for it after it's filmed. Why don't you go to heaven
