In the first episode of "River of Silence", the main story is not advanced very much, and the main focus is on character development.
Especially focus on the characters played by Lu Yanhe and Zeng Qiao, and establish their characters from some details.
Such a filming method will pose a challenge to the audience——
Because in this era of drama watching, not those who have enough patience can wait for a drama to finish portraying the characters. Time to tell a good story.
Everyone’s life is in a hurry and cannot stop and enjoy a leisurely evening.
Even if I am watching the drama in a relaxed manner, I hope the pace is faster and faster to stimulate the pleasure of watching the drama.
Chen Lingling did not challenge the audience's patience with the idea of "I am making art". Although her first episode focused on characterization, she also used several methods to keep the plot moving and changing. There are almost no long takes, nor do the frames linger on one scene for long. Therefore, when I look back at the first episode, the plot is actually very easy to summarize, but when watching, the amount of information is not small.
Lu Yanhe is also very satisfied with the first episode.
One of the biggest features of Chen Lingling's filming, which Lu Yanhe considers to be an advantage, is that the details are handled very well.
Her details are not just to give you a close-up shot, they are marked here and told you and that’s it. Every detail under Chen Lingling's lens is advanced together with the plot and characterization. For example, when Lu Yanhe entered the company twice to greet his colleagues, everyone's expressions were in sharp contrast in the first episode - this contrast between before and after, formed a strong impression under the close-up lens.
Lu Yanhe said to Li Zhibai: "Director Chen's skills have become more profound. I dare not say anything else. The editing of this scene is a bit tricky."
Li Zhibai also nodded.
“There are several scene transitions that amaze me.” Li Zhibai said to Lu Yanhe, “Doesn’t Director Chen Lingling have any other projects in the future? Can she let me play a role?”
< br>Lu Yanhe said: "It's up to you. Go ahead and contact her. If you want to act, I think any director will seriously consider it and won’t turn you away directly.”
Li Zhibai: “Damn, you don’t even think about it. Are you ready to introduce me? ”
Lu Yanhe said: "Of course there is no problem, but based on my understanding of Director Chen Lingling, she would prefer actors who contact her directly."
"Oh? I heard that she has a bit of a weird temper. Is that true? False?”
“No It can be said that it is weird, but it is a little different from others," Lu Yanhe said, "Almost all her thoughts are on filming, and her producer Huang Cheng, who has been working with her for many years, helps her with everything else. Therefore, I trust Huang Cheng very much in many things. , she will be very dependent on Huang Cheng. This dependence and child-like personality have made her have a weird personality. In fact, I have worked with her in two dramas, and I like her very much. It's a drama, and I have almost no personal relationship with her. This is different from other directors she works with.”
“Oh?”
“So, you should understand that I said she is a director who focuses on filming. What does it mean?”
Li Zhibai nodded.
He glanced at his phone.
"One hour after the premiere of "River of Silence", the number of domestic viewers exceeded five million." Li Zhibai clicked his tongue, "Perfect! He breathed a sigh of relief."
Lu Yanhe said: "You don't have to worry too much about it. If a drama is to be popular and popular and a lot of people like it, why do you have to have tens of millions of viewers to say that? No matter how many fans I have, I can't exceed one million. I I’ve never felt that the fans in my fan club don’t watch it Yes, this show is a failure. I am not the only one who does this show. Director Chen and Zeng Qiao are both very good creators. Even if my fans don’t watch it, there are also their fans. Our fans don’t even watch it, there are so many What about the viewers who don’t follow celebrities but just watch dramas?”
Li Zhibai: “If your words get out, your fans will cry to the Great Wall again, and they will cry out that you belittle their efforts and their love for you. Supported.”
Lu Yanhe sighed, "To be honest, those fans who really support me have never kidnapped me morally. I can't say moral kidnapping. Alas, in fact, without their support, I am nothing. Who cares? Me.”
Li Zhibai: "But pull it down, why are you suddenly belittling yourself? You are already good enough and respectful to your fans. And, to be honest, you are not begging them to do those things. You should do your job well." They like you and spontaneously help you promote it, and you thank them too. , isn’t that enough? If they feel they like you and have done a lot for you, they have the right to control you and command you. At this time, do you really have to accept this kind of moral kidnapping and compromise? It’s not like you can’t live without fans Go down. You haven’t relied on fans for a living since the college entrance examination. Didn’t they all disappear after the competition?”
Li Zhibai's method of comfort is unique, but it is also very effective.
Lu Yanhe laughed.
-
That night, many friends watched "River of Silence" and sent Lu Yanhe their feelings.
Everyone has good reviews.
Director Luo Yuzhong sincerely gave Lu Yanhe some advice, saying that he felt that in the scene at the end of the first episode, when he returned to the company from the police, he faced the uneasiness, doubts and ambiguity of his colleagues. He could have dealt with Yueyue's fearful look in a more "confused" and "unprepared" manner.
Director Luo Yuzhong said bluntly: Your acting and sensibility have reached a certain level now. At this time, you have to use some skills to make your performance more accurate.
Lu Yanhe understood what director Luo Yuzhong meant.
Many people mistakenly think that acting is about entering the state of a character, which is correct no matter what. This is of course a very high level, but to become a truly top actor, you must make your performance not only higher than skills, but also higher than pure sensibility.
Not only director Luo Yuzhong, but also screenwriter Feng Qiyue, who collaborated with "Seventeen Floors", also sent a message: The script of "River of Silence" is actually very average, just a second-rate script, and it all depends on your director, The editing and the actors' performances have modified the past and made it look like a nine-point (out of ten). Without you, just looking at the script, judging from the first episode, it is just a barely qualified script.
Lu Yanhe especially enjoys this time.
People I know in the entertainment industry pay attention to his works and will give their professional opinions.
Regardless of praise or criticism, this kind of discussion gives Lu Yanhe a sense of satisfaction.
It's like an author writes an article and gets a lot of comments. It's like a chef posting a cooking video online and getting a lot of replicas and taste feedback.
Lu Yanhe didn't even bother to look at the reaction on the Internet.
In the creative group of "River of Silence", everyone was chatting and laughing.
Although the starring roles of this drama are Lu Yanhe and Zeng Qiao, there are also other actors.
The first episode is online today. Except for the leading actors like Lu Yanhe and Zeng Qiao who will definitely be bought by the film studio or their own company, other actors will also make good use of this drama promotion time to strive for greater success. Exposure allows you to increase your visibility and develop your career.
Neither Lu Yanhe nor Zeng Qiao are the kind of leading actors who can become popular with explosion-proof supporting roles. Therefore, there is no so-called warning method, nor is there any behavior for the film studio and the platform to highlight themselves and suppress others.
The other actors were all mixed up in various crews. They feel the warmth and warmth of this circle more clearly than popular stars like Lu Yanhe.
Therefore, the two leading actors, Lu Yanhe and Zeng Qiao, did not have any "explosion-proof" means at all, and because of the controversy between the two of them, almost all publicity and exposure opportunities fell on them, leaving them When they got a lot of exposure at once, one can imagine their gratitude to Lu Yanhe and Zeng Qiao.
At this time, Maxine announced: "Silent River" has been online for 4 hours on Maxine. Globally, the number of viewers of the first episode exceeded 1 million, and it has reached sixth place on the real-time popularity list in the Asia-Pacific region. name.
This is a very valuable data in Maxine.
Maxine also officially announced that she has started communicating with director Chen Lingling and her team about the second season of "Silent River".
These news all prove one thing: "River of Silence" is also very popular on the external Internet.
The first episode got off to a good start with results that were both unexpected and reasonable.
The multiple hot searches arranged by Chen Ziyan made all discussions about Lu Yanhe focus on the performance and characters of this drama, without any off-screen content.
The second episode will be online the next day.
Before that, Lu Yanhe's propaganda was finally in full swing.
The first is an online interview with Lu Yanhe by Japan's "Film and Television News". The Chinese and Japanese bilingual versions were released simultaneously.
This interview was conducted a week ago. Toshihide Konishi, a special commentator from Japan's "Film and Television Weekly", came to China and conducted a face-to-face interview with Lu Yanhe.
An hour later, Kim Ok-min, a columnist for South Korea's "Movie Weekly" published a review of Lu Yanhe's film and television career, and also devoted a space to his new work "River of Silence" Great review.
Subsequently, many Asian media magazines such as Singapore's "Critics Newspaper", Vietnam's "Star", and India's "Bollywood Legend" published articles one after another, either with a little interview or a comprehensive report, focusing on The actor Lu Yanhe and his new work "River of Silence" are reported and promoted on his official website and social media.
In the afternoon, media from Europe and the United States also came online one after another.
Marion Tucci, a French film critic who has long had a good relationship with Lu Yanhe, and Tom Wynn, a columnist and film critic for Variety in the United States, both updated their social media to watch "River of Silence" 》 dynamics.
Later, Evan Galdi, the executive editor of "Jose Films" also updated the news, saying: "The new drama "Silent River" starring Chinese actor Lu Yanhe, which I have been following, has been aired. Watch it. It received so many positive reviews that I couldn’t wait to go back and watch both episodes tonight.”
This is the work of Chen Siqi and Lin Yu.
To be precise, it was after they communicated with Chen Ziyan that they decided to ask their media friends to take action at this time to create such momentum for Lu Yanhe.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s good or bad, but at least during the period when it’s airing, updates related to “River of Silence” will be released as soon as possible.
At the same time, the film and television self-media account of "Jump Up" did not shy away from suspicion. If a foreign media publishes a relevant report, we will repost it here. As long as it is a foreign media with a little fame and influence. Or celebrities, that's the case.
After all, not many people will take the initiative to pay attention to these things in foreign media.
Under such "indiscriminate bombardment", some negative situations caused by Lu Yanhe's fan support association threatening to disband have all lost any deterrence.
It was only then that Chen Ziyan spoke up "belatedly":
——As Lu Yanhe's agent, this period of time has been very painful for both Yan He and me. No matter how successful Yan He is, what he cherishes the most are his fans who have always supported him. Because we all know that without the steadfast support of fans, Yan He’s talent, hard work, and each of his works may not necessarily achieve such a high starting point.
——However, we were helplessly aware of the fact that our idea of focusing on the work was challenged from all aspects. The partners hope that Yan He will be more exposed, the platform side hopes that Yan He will be more topical, and some fans hope that Yan He can be tougher, more perfect, and more powerful, and become a "supreme god in the entertainment industry."
——No one is God, people are just people. Therefore, people can only choose what they really want and focus on what they really want.
——There are many roads in this world. Some people tell you that you should choose a high road. Some people tell you, no, you should choose a flat road. Some people tell you that you can choose a road full of mountains and rivers. The road of sunshine and flowers, someone tells you that you should choose a road that no one has traveled. However, no matter what path it is, what we have to choose is not the path others tell us we should choose, but the path we want to take in our own hearts.
——In order to stick to the path we want to take, we made a heartfelt and painful decision. From now on, we will dissolve all fan clubs. Please forgive us. It is not that we no longer need everyone, but that we must strengthen ourselves. . If you are willing to continue to applaud and cheer for Yan He, we are sincerely grateful. If you are disappointed and leave, we will accept it calmly. I wish we can all do what we want without going overboard.

Helan’s cell phone vibrated like crazy.
As a die-hard member of the Lu Yanhe Fans Support Club, ever since someone forced Lu Yanhe to do something, Helan has made it clear that he does not accept such behavior and has always worked hard to prevent it. , but ended up getting kicked out of several groups.
But there are also several groups who agree with her idea and continue to support Lu Yanhe silently.
He Lan took a long breath after seeing Chen Ziyan's voice.
Every group was shocked.
Lu Yanhe actually disbanded all the fan support organizations.
Although Helan vaguely guessed that Lu Yanhe would do this, when the dust settled, she still breathed a sigh of relief and a sigh.
The so-called fan support club may have been a spontaneous organization of fans at the beginning. But in this era, no agency will allow such an organization to spontaneously expand its power and have the power to affect the career of artists without being under its control.
But Chen Ziyan's announcement actually expresses an attitude to all walks of life. From now on, these organizations have nothing to do with them. Any fan support organization can no longer speak on behalf of Lu Yanhe and other officials.
As for whether they want to continue to exist as Yeluzi or disband, it is no longer their business and has nothing to do with them.
In the group, many people are repeatedly confirming, is it true? Does Lu Yanhe really not care about them so much that he wants to dissolve the support club?
Helan originally wanted to explain to Lu Yanhe that disbanding the support club does not mean that he does not care about them.
However, she typed a few words, deleted them, and finally said nothing.
She herself also felt that during the recent period, many of Lu Yanhe's fans were not normal, as if they had lost their minds and were acting crazy.
She even doubted, were they really fans of Lu Yanhe?
Helan couldn’t judge.
However, He Lan also knew very well that no matter what Chen Ziyan said, their move to disband the fan support club would always hurt the hearts of some fans.
This is unexplainable... As long as you do such a thing, you are bound to hurt innocent fans.
But Helan also understood that Lu Yanhe had to do this.
Lu Yanhe cannot be an actor kidnapped by fans.
-
Lu Yanhe’s drastic disbandment shocked the entire entertainment industry.
There are really not many artists who dare to directly dissolve their fan clubs.
This is not a matter between a few fans and the artist - no matter how the artist explains it, the signal this behavior sends to the outside world is the artist's attitude towards the fans as a group.
However, after everyone was shocked, they all applauded again.
“Only Lu Yanhe can do this. If he doesn’t dare to cut ties with his fan club, other artists will not have the confidence to do so.”
“Today’s acting industry The fandom has been around for a long time. Lu Yanhe dared to stand up at this time and took the initiative to disband the fan support club, which undoubtedly set an example for young artists in the entertainment industry and cannot be kidnapped by some fans."
……
"There is a forum that wants to invite you to give a speech." Chen Ziyan said, "It is a very influential forum. I would like to ask you to talk about the relationship between celebrities and artists. What do you think?"
"Forget it, I won't go." Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "I've said what needs to be said. Regarding this matter, I don't want to reinforce everyone's impression. Now there are many people who want to take me Set up a model of cutting off from ardent fans, but I don’t want to be this model.”
Chen Ziyan nodded, “Okay, I understand.”
She patted Lu Yanhe and said, “ No matter how big the public opinion is, it will pass. "River of Silence" has performed well. This is your greatest confidence."
"Yes." Lu Yanhe nodded.
"The Asian Television Festival in October this year invites you to be the award presenter. This is a good event. I am ready to give you the next step."
"Okay." Lu Yanhe nodded again.
Chen Ziyan: "It's possible that you will also get nominated."
Lu Yanhe: "Huh? Really?"
"Yeah." Chen Ziyan nodded, "But Asia The TV Festival is not particularly professional. It is mainly a commercial event. Whoever nominates and who doesn’t nominate depends on who will support them. ”
"It's okay, it doesn't matter whether you give me a nomination or not." Lu Yanhe said, "You said you are not very professional and just join in the fun. It is not a great honor to be nominated and win an award."
"Then It’s still better than nothing, which proves your influence to some extent.” Chen Ziyan said with a smile, “Not every award must be professional and professionally recognized to be a good award. Generally speaking, Asian movies are good. The nominees and winners of the TV Festival every year are all creators who are popular and influential in Asia. In the past two or three years, Korean dramas, Japanese dramas, and Vietnamese dramas have won more awards. In the past, Chinese dramas were relatively few overseas, and internationally Not enough sex, not enough international voice, this time "Six People" and "Seventeen Floors" have enough influence."
