I truly left the camera and the crowd, hiking in the desert with my friends, and feeling the desolation far away from human habitation.
This feeling gave Lu Yanhe a long-lost sense of openness.
I also encountered a sudden heavy rain one day.
They were sitting in the desert hotel, and the thin iron walls were clanging with raindrops, as if their shelter was about to be demolished in the next second.
The harshness of facing nature is something you cannot feel in the city.
Many of the emotions Lu Yanhe had accumulated over the past few months were unexpectedly released in the past few days.
He returned to a clear state of mind.
-
Coming out of the desert, Lu Yanhe felt dark.
Everyone who finally got together has to go back to school in different parts of the world.
Lu Yanhe returned to Yuming, and as soon as he met Chen Ziyan, Chen Ziyan looked at him in shock and asked: "Did you not put on sunscreen? Why are you so dark?"
"Yes. , but it didn’t work.” Lu Yanhe explained, “I even wore a UV-protective hat on my back, but it didn’t work either.”
Chen Ziyan looked at him sideways, “Now. Well, now that you are so tan, you can’t even put on makeup to save it. Fortunately, you won’t join the team for the next few months, so you don’t have to worry about your skin color. Alas, you will go to the Jose Film Festival in a few days and it will probably arouse heated discussions. ."
Lu Yanhe said, "Are you tanned a lot? Why do I feel okay?"
Chen Ziyan looked at him and didn't want to answer his question.
-
The fact that Lu Yanhe turned black did not arouse heated discussion until he appeared at the Jose Film Festival.
The next day, when he returned to school, someone took a photo and posted it online, which became a hot search topic.
Many people were shocked by Lu Yanhe’s photos.
——Why has he turned so dark?
——Looks a bit rustic, not as handsome as before.
——No, I think he looks more handsome when he is dark.
——What is he doing? Did you go get a tan?
......
A group of people found it incredible that Lu Yanhe suddenly turned dark.
Because Lu Yanhe used to have a pretty "boyish" appearance.
Lu Yanhe himself doesn’t particularly care about the discussion about this matter. Anyway, he doesn't take the route of "relying on face" now. If he is black, he will be black, as long as it does not affect his normal work.
Lu Yanhe does not endorse any whitening products.
Lu Yanhe explained during the live broadcast that he went to the desert to play, so he was so tanned.
Not many of his fans care.
As a result, very inexplicably, the next day there was a topic on the Internet: "Why are male artists so bad at managing their own images?"
The topic is very popular.
A blogger used the incident of Lu Yanhe becoming black as a starting point to discuss the difference in public tolerance for the image of male artists and female artists.
“We must see that it is because we are more demanding on the image of female artists. They must be thin, white, and have a good image and temperament. If there is anything bad, they will be criticized. On the other hand, male artists, If you have a long belly, no matter how ugly you are, there will always be a bunch of people praising you for being handsome. In other words, even if you are ugly, you can be an actor. The matter of Lu Yanhe actually doesn't have much to do with him. It has nothing to do with it. He is not filming. If he is black, he will be black. But even if he is black, he is still supported by many people. This kind of behavior reminds me of a female artist who just gained a few pounds not long ago and had a little extra fat on the camera. , it’s really unfair to be ridiculed for being fat and even trending.”
This article has also received support and approval from many people, who are calling for the whole society to be more tolerant to women.
What Chen Ziyan fears most is that Lu Yanhe will be involved in such topics of right and wrong.
It is an obvious social contradiction in itself. It has been arguing for several years without reaching a conclusion. At this time, Lu Yanhe was involved and could only get into trouble.
Chen Ziyan thought for a long time about how to face and solve this matter.
From a public relations perspective, this matter has nothing to do with right or wrong, but to get Lu Yanhe out of trouble as soon as possible.
So, a few hours later, Chen Ziyan posted a message on her personal account: Yan He was preparing for a role that would join the group later, and he deliberately tanned himself. This is the role. need.
Lu Yanhe soon sent several question marks.
Chen Ziyan explained to him.
Lu Yanhe understood.
“But I haven’t taken on this type of role in the future.” Lu Yanhe said, “Won’t people question it?”
“It takes at least a year from filming to broadcasting. "Who will remember you in a year?" Chen Ziyan said, "If someone asks, just say that the drama was bad and you didn't act in it. The most important thing is to get you out of it first." .”
Lu Yanhe admired Chen Ziyan's keen response.
-
On the other side, an invitation letter from the Dutch Film Festival was sent to Lu Yanhe.
He received the invitation as the spokesperson of Math, the film festival's sponsoring brand.
This time his job is mainly to promote the brand.
Then, there was the press conference to sign a cooperation framework with Northern Lights.
These are his two most important works at this Jose Film Festival.
Lu Yanhe did not attend the opening ceremony and did not fly over until the day before work.
Fortunately, there were only three required courses this semester, and because of the filming of "Late Spring", he did not take any of the elective courses. Therefore, he had plenty of time and happened to have no classes, otherwise he would have to ask for leave again.
Even if there is a serious reason, Lu Yanhe cannot ask for leave with peace of mind - for students, attending classes in school is a matter of course, and this is one of Lu Yanhe's own obsessions. As a result, as soon as she arrived in Hexi, Chen Ziyan said to him: "Director Wang Zhong invited us to have dinner together tonight."
Lu Yanhe was originally planning to take a stroll around Jose by himself. In this case, all I have to do is go to the appointment first.
Wang Zhong and Chen Ling were the only ones having this dinner.
Wang Zhong came to discuss the film "Rouge Button" with Lu Yanhe.
"I like this script. What do you think if I were to direct this movie?" Wang Zhong asked Lu Yanhe.
He didn't mince words at all and asked straight to the point.
Lu Yanhe said: "Director Wang, if you are willing to be the director of this movie, of course I am very willing. You know, I am your loyal fan."
Wang Zhong heard Lu Yanhe say this He breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, the script was written by Lu Yanhe, and Lu Yanhe was not an ordinary screenwriter. When a director came to buy the script, the screenwriter sold it.
Wang Zhong has heard from Chen Ling that Lu Yanhe's own production company will definitely hold the copyright and participate in the production of this script, rather than simply selling the script to others.
Moreover, there is Chen Bige - this is the heroine Lu Yanhe has already decided.
Wang Zhong was not satisfied at all with the fact that the heroine was Chen Bige.
He admires Chen Bige very much and really wants to cooperate with Chen Bige.
Moreover, he also felt that Chen Bige was very suitable for the role of Ruhua in "Rouge Button".
Wang Zhong has always felt that good ghost stories cannot be written in a modern setting - this kind of thing must take place in an environment far away from people's real life to have that kind of spooky and ethereal charm. .
He had no desire to make movies that were scary for the sake of being scary.
He loves to photograph gods and ghosts because their fantastic existence can bring some metaphysical beauty to the image.
But "Rouge Button" is a story that combines the past and the present with great feeling.
Especially in modern society, Ruhua looks at the only remaining traces of the past on the stage, that glance.
There was nothing written in the script, but Wang Zhong could feel everything.
Lu Yanhe and Wang Zhong chatted a lot about "Rouge Button".
For example, why Chen Bige was chosen to play Ruhua? According to Lu Yanhe, this role and this script were tailor-made for Chen Bige. This is certainly not the case.
There is another question, which is Wang Zhong’s thoughts about the Twelve Young Masters and the modern pair of young lovers.
Lu Yanhe was surprised to find that many of his ideas were very similar to the original movie.
In particular, he proposed to place the story in the 1990s of the last century, rather than in this completely bizarre city now.
Wang Zhong said: "Only in this way can the audience find common ground between the past and present customs. Now, there is no trace of the Republic of China at all."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
Wang Zhong suddenly asked: "Do you want to play the role of the Twelve Young Masters?"
Lu Yanhe looked at him in surprise: "Me?"
Wang Zhong asked: "Why, didn't you write this role so that the male protagonist is for yourself?"
Lu Yanhe shook his head with a smile and said: "It's really not true. I didn't write this role according to myself."
Wang Zhong heard this and said: "Actually, you can play the role of the Twelve Young Master, but, you There is a bit of age difference with Chen Bige. Yuan, I'm worried that you two won't get along."
Lu Yanhe imagined himself playing "Rouge Button" with Sister Bi Ge. He immediately shook his head and said, "It's not suitable."
He. The kind that gives me goosebumps.
Wang Zhong laughed.
He said: "In that case, let's invite Chen Bige to come out and talk about it sometime?"
Lu Yanhe said: "Director, Sister Bige is also coming to the Jose Film Festival this time. How about I do it now?" Ask her if she has time?"
Wang Zhong: "Of course that's good."
Lu Yanhe nodded, "Then I'll call Sister Bige."
Chen Bige listened to Lu Yanhe briefly explain this. After realizing the situation, immediately tell her to come over now.
Therefore, Lu Yanhe and Wang Zhong waited for a while.
About half an hour later, Chen Bige came over wearing a peaked cap.
She was the first to greet Wang Zhong and shake hands, "Director Wang, long time no see."
Wang Zhong said: "The last time we saw each other was two years ago, right?"
Chen Bige nodded, "Yes, we met before at the Jiangguang Film Festival, and that time you awarded me a Film Contribution Award."
