"Lu Yanhe's connections in the media and critical circles are so wide, it's completely beyond my imagination." At Longyan Pictures, Mrs. Huang told her husband, ""Squid Game" could also become such a hit on Maxine. It was all due to the initial attention from media circles and critics. Generally speaking, only the top creators in the world could attract such a huge amount of attention at once. Even director Wang Zhong could hardly do it. Before this, In our country, we only have Gong Director Jiang’s work has such ability. I really don’t know how Lu Yanhe did it.”
As for Northern Lights Video, Zheng Huairen also joked with his friends in private: “No wonder Lu Yanhe was determined not to lose the copyright. one If we sell it, we will only sell the broadcast rights. "Squid Game" is really a hit at home and abroad. The subsequent derivative developments will make a lot of money."
December belongs to "Squid Game".
Especially the chapter "One Two Three Wooden Man" turned a game that almost everyone played in childhood into a thrilling and bloody killing game, making it the "Squid Game" on social media One of the most talked about designs in the world.
A big V in the gaming industry suddenly lamented: If Lu Yanhe were to design games, he would probably be very capable. Several of the games he designed in the "Young Days" program were quite popular, such as "Love You" "It's Hard to Guess", everyone around me plays it at gatherings. After watching "Squid Game", my feeling became even stronger. He really took several childhood games that we are all familiar with and turned them into horror. Scary, what a talent.
This sentiment has been liked and forwarded by countless people, and it is very popular.
At the same time, the protagonists of "Squid Game" have also experienced a surge in popularity overseas, and their attention has also soared overseas.

In recent times, Jiang Yuqian’s schedule has been divided into hours.
She has not returned to the peak of her career all at once, but has reached a height that she has never reached before.
"The Seoul TV Festival in South Korea, the Starlight Festival in Singapore, the Star Shining Night in Thailand... In the next three months, we have a total of 14 overseas itineraries, well, this is the next one so far."
Agent He Heng now also has a face that has survived winter and spring is coming, and the spring is bright.
Jiang Yuqian asked in surprise: "With such a long schedule, can I make it? I'm about to film the sequel to "Behind the Golden Coat"."
"I'm already talking to the crew We communicated over there to see if we can join the group a little later. You don’t have many roles in this movie.” He Heng said, “I shouldn’t have accepted this movie in the first place.”
Jiang Yuqian was silent for a moment and said, “I already accepted it because I could do it. The best resource I’ve ever received.”
He Heng: "Yes, but the explosion of "Squid Game" exceeded our expectations. I was really shocked that it was so popular overseas. The stylists we worked with all reported that many big international brands are now Observe your situation. This has never happened before."
Jiang Yuqian said: " "Squid Game" seems to be more popular overseas than in China."
"That's true, especially when no one expected that it would be popular in Europe and the United States," He Heng said, "It is. Our Chinese drama is the most popular in Europe and the United States.”
“It’s too exaggerated,” Jiang Yuqian said.
“Although there are reasons for taking advantage of the subject matter, the main reason is that Yan He’s influence is indeed sufficient.” He Heng said, “Although he is not world-famous now, he is well known in the media circle. Everyone knows him and looks forward to him, so as soon as his screenwriter’s work comes online, everyone will watch it as soon as possible.”
Jiang Yuqian said: "This really depends on his personal influence. No matter how loud the promotion of some dramas is, as long as there are no people to watch, it will be in vain."
"That's right. ." He Heng nodded, "It's a pity that your character is dead, and you will probably not be there in the second and third seasons."
Jiang Yuqian said with a smile: "Just be content, Sister Heng. Moreover, I Working with Yan He is not just about this one drama.”
He Heng: “It’s true that God has favored you. In the drama “Golden Age” that brought you to the peak of your career, Meeting Yan He has made you reach another peak."
"Of course I am blessed by God for being such a good person and working so hard." Jiang Yuqian's smile was particularly charming at this moment.
Seeing her like this, He Heng also smiled.

After seeing that "Squid Game" exploded just like its trajectory in another world, Lu Yanhe finally breathed a sigh of relief and let go of his uneasy heart. Official preparations for the winter shooting of "Love Letter" began.
The crew members have already reserved their schedules and are just waiting to start filming.
At this moment, Lu Yanhe has had several hits in a row, from "Rouge Button" to "Road to Glory" and then to the recent "Squid Game", he has been walking on the mythical road and never missed a beat.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s a movie or a TV series, it doesn’t matter whether your TV series is broadcast weekly or daily, it doesn’t matter whether it’s a romance theme or a battle royale theme, across eighteen degrees, he is still him.
Compared to when he was filming "Love Letter" in July, everyone now has more... respect for him.
This includes photographer Bao Wenliang.
He was extremely grateful for one thing now. Fortunately, he had not acted like a big monster before and had not offended Lu Yanhe.
Damn it, Lu Yanhe is not just popular, he is on his way to becoming a big boss.
Bao Wenliang felt scared deep in his heart.
So, after the crew members returned to their seats, the young photographer Wu Zhou was shocked to find that the old man Bao Wen was no longer bright.
“…”
-
The river port is located in the northeastern region, along the coast.
Lu Yanhe had never been to this place before for inspection.
When he came to scout the location, it hadn't snowed yet in Hegang. In fact, he couldn't tell what snow looked like.
It was after he saw the photos and videos they found of Hegang city after snowfall in previous years that Lu Yanhe confirmed that the movie could be shot here.
Zhang Ruozhi hasn't taken vacation yet, so he won't be able to make it for the time being.
But it doesn’t matter, because Lu Yanhe can film Chen Bige’s scenes here first.
Chen Bige has a lot of winter scenes that haven't been filmed yet.
The scene with Chen Bige was really great.
When filming Zhang Ruozhi in the summer, Lu Yanhe really needed to teach Zhang Ruozhi step by step, but with Chen Bige, of course there is no need for this.
Lu Yanhe only needs to tell Chen Bige clearly that what he wants, Chen Bige will give it to him.
Because he has to play two roles, Chen Bige needs to distinguish between the two characters in his performance style. In the original version, the two of them even looked similar, but Lu Yanhe didn't see it clearly when he saw it. Lu Yanhe didn't want to challenge the audience on this.
Therefore, Lu Yanhe gave the adult Huai Jingshu a long hair style, while Zheng Ni, who looked exactly like the adult Huai Jing Shu, had short hair, with her hair only reaching her neck.
But apart from this feature, Lu Yanhe did not make any other huge differences.
He explained to Chen Bige: "I just need the audience to be able to tell who is who at a glance, but I don't want the two of them to look completely different. They must have a lot of similarities. The similarities allow the audience to know that they are two people, and that they are not only They just look similar, but they are also similar in other aspects."
Chen Bige nodded and asked, "Why should the audience feel this way?"
Lu Yanhe said. : "Only when two people really have a little bit of similarity other than looks, will the male Aijiki like it. It’s not just about the same face. Everyone is more accepting of it. Why do the two of them write letters to each other? In this era, writing letters to each other is a very luxury thing. Although I gave a little explanation in the script. , let this somewhat classical behavior have a reason, and make the audience truly believe that the communication between you must be To be able to continue using such an ancient way of writing letters, you need to have a kind of commonality between the two of you, in addition to the common ground that you have met the male version of Kaii Shu in your life and that you look very similar. Curiosity about each other is based on careful speculation and seriousness.”
After hearing what Lu Yanhe said, Chen Bige took a deep breath and said, "I understand."
With a bit of disbelief on her face, she said, "The relationship between the characters in this movie is too delicate."
"Yes." Lu Yanhe nodded, " I just want to make it very delicate."
Chen Bige: "Did you think of this when you were writing the script?"
"Well, it was because you were writing the script at that time. when , I was thinking that now such an Internet In the modern era, writing letters is too outdated," Lu Yanhe said. "However, I want to keep this method and use mobile phones to send messages to each other, which will have a relatively casual feeling. It’s understandable to send a letter once, because there is only one address found in the classmate list, so I can only send a letter, but the two of them gradually started chatting. For the sake of convenience, why not tell each other their phone numbers in the letter? You can make a phone call or even a video call.”
Lu Yanhe smiled and shrugged, "If I want to retain a way of writing letters to each other that is about to be eliminated from the times, we must solve these problems. So we can only find out from the motivation. Why is a person unwilling to use A more convenient way to communicate with someone?"
Chen Bige: "I understand what you mean. "
She said: "Actually, it's not difficult for me to play two roles. It's not a difficult role."
Lu Yanhe nodded, "Indeed."
Chen Bige: "But it is difficult to perform to the level you want. It has to be invisible."
"Especially...the most subtle moments between two people." Lu Yanhe said, "When I was writing the script, the moments that I most looked forward to making into a movie were when the two characters you played passed each other on the street. There was another moment when Zheng Ni, as the girlfriend of the male Aijing Shu, saw the female Aijing Shu who looked exactly like her. , is the last scene of the movie. The female Aijingshu got the library card that the male Aijingshu had registered many years ago from several female high school students. She saw on the back that he had secretly drawn her face. She The moment he smiled in the sunshine."
When Chen Bige heard Lu Yanhe speak, he lowered his eyebrows and then raised his eyes, his eyes suddenly turned red.
“These two moments are actually the most important reason why I want to act in this movie.”
Chen Bige smiled. At this moment, Lu Yanhe saw from Chen Bige’s face and eyes. They all saw a little bit of her own trance.
Some actors are particularly good at performing realistic works. Their shaping, expressiveness and appeal are simply invincible. But the reason why some actors are great is that on these basis, they can make the audience feel like "only him". In the field of artistic creation, this unique quality is always the most precious thing for a creator. The same goes for actors.
An actor like Chen Bige is most praised for her emotional appeal. She didn't have to act very hard, just one or two glances, or a mirror-like trance, one or two seconds was enough. At that moment, the audience was deeply moved by her.
Lu Yanhe didn’t know how Chen Bige would perform in the end, but he had full trust in her.
He doesn't need any guidance, he just needs to wait behind the monitor.

“It’s so cold.”
The curtain of a grilled fish restaurant in Hegang was opened by Liu Bige from the outside. He was wearing a black, thick down jacket and finally appeared without a shirt or trousers.
He took off his gloves and earmuffs, took off his down jacket, and stuffed it into the basket for clothes. His breath was white.
“It’s cold today! Even more exaggerated than Yuming!”
Lu Yanhe: “It’s further north than Yuming. It’s normal to be colder than Yuming.”
< br>Liu Bige: "Tell me, if you write a script, you have to write about this extreme snow scene, and you have to shoot a large panorama, and artificial landscaping is not enough."
Lu Yanhe: “The landscaping is not as beautiful as the real natural scenery.”
Liu Bige: “They all look the same when photographed.”
“But in the real natural scenery, everyone can feel it better That kind of atmosphere." Lu Yanhe said, "Sit down and have a bite. Stop talking and start talking as soon as you enter."
They only have a small table for four people.
This store does not have private rooms, just a few tables for four placed side by side. It is a small roadside store.
But someone on the crew said that this grilled fish restaurant was excellent, so Lu Yanhe came over to try it.
Liu Bige was probably hungry too. He picked up his rice bowl and took a piece of potato and tofu dip from the grilled fish pot. Along with the rice, he took a big bite.
After taking one bite, Lu Yanhe, who had been waiting for Liu Bige and hadn’t eaten yet, felt his appetite increase.
Looking at the smell.
"What are your plans after filming "Love Letter"?" Liu Bige asked.
Lu Yanhe said: "I'm going to join the crew to shoot "Fire". The filming of this movie will start in March."
Liu Bige nodded.
"When will your Hollywood horror film be filmed?"
"The second half of the year." Lu Yanhe said, "I am very busy this year, with several movies."
Liu Bi Ge said: "The script of the spy war drama written by Miao Yue has been almost polished. I was still thinking that it could be started this year, but it seems that it is not possible?"
Lu Yanhe asked: "How long will it take to shoot your movie?"
Liu Bige said: "It will take about forty days. It's not the kind of movie that can be shot quickly."
< br>Lu Yanhe: "The main reason is that the time for the second half of the year has not been decided yet, but if I join the cast seamlessly, my condition will definitely be affected. Can you wait for me? Can you put this drama to filming next year?"
Liu Bige nodded: "I can wait. It's originally based on the script you wrote. You can't act, so of course I have to wait. However, in this way, I only need to edit the film this year and make The post-production period is over, and I feel free all of a sudden."
Lu Yanhe said, "Don't be idle. Take a look at the scripts I wrote to see if there are any you want to film."
< br>
He added: "If there is anything you want to film, I will authorize it to be filmed for you."
Hearing this, Liu Bige said: "Of your scripts, the one that moved my heart is "Dragon Gate Inn" , are you willing to take pictures for me?"
Lu Yanhe was stunned, "You actually fell in love with this?" Liu Bige nodded and said: "The character in your script is comparable to "Rouge Button". After reading it, I have a feeling that several classic characters in film history will appear again."
" Then you can make it, you didn’t tell me earlier, but can you prepare and start filming this movie this year?” Lu Yanhe asked.
After all, it’s not like Liu Bige has really had nothing to do for the past year. He still has to do the post-production of "Fake Death". Maybe this romantic comedy will be released within the year. When the time comes to promote it, it will definitely So tired.
Liu Bige said: "Hey, I'm just saying, I just finished filming "Fake Death", how could I start another film right away? Of course I can take a break. I definitely won't be able to film it this year. , this movie requires a lot of effort just to build the scenery."
Liu Bige, who is very familiar with the film industry, can roughly estimate how to make a movie like "Dragon Inn" as soon as he reads the script. How long does it take.
Lu Yanhe smiled.
"Then you said so much, which made me feel so guilty that I thought you were really going to delay a year because of me."
Liu Bige: "Let you feel a little more guilty. You can help me act in more dramas in the future."
"My heart is dark." Lu Yanhe sighed with emotion.
Wang Biao lowered his head and laughed muffledly.
-
This way, Yuming.
"What is this? A black humor comedy movie?"
The script Li Zhibai sent to him in disbelief, the cover of the script had four big words "Go to hell" written on it. It was unbelievable. There is a movie with such a name.
This script was sent by Longyan Pictures.
Lin Suyang said: "This is the new work of Huang Pump, the director of the "Upstairs" movie, cooperating with Longyan Pictures."
Li Zhibai flipped through the script.
"Want me to act?"
"Yes." Lin Suyang nodded, "However, although you are the protagonist, the script itself is a group portrait setting, with a total of three lines and seven main characters."
Li Zhibai shrugged, "That's not a problem. Do you think this script is well written?"
"Very good, I like this script very much." Lin Suyang nodded, "Moreover, Huang Pump's previous film "Upstairs" won many awards and had a high box office, which also made me compare this project I have confidence."
Li Zhibai said: "Then let me read the script."
Lin Suyang nodded and asked: "Zhi Bai, have you read the martial arts script written by Lu Yanhe?"
Li Zhibai nodded, "Yes."
"Is it suitable for you? role?" Lin Suyang asked.
Li Zhibai snorted, shook his head resolutely, and said no.
Lin Suyang: "The reason why I want you to play a black humor comedy like "Go to Death" is that your current role image is relatively simple, they are all handsome, cool, and youthful. Yes, if things continue like this, it won’t be particularly good for your future acting. I want to give you a different type of acting than before.”
Li Zhibai: "Okay, but don't even think about it in "Dragon Inn". There is no role suitable for me in it. Also, I don't force myself to transform now. Yan Hedu said, at our age now Well, you want to transform, but there is nothing on the market. There are a few characters that can help you transform, why not just film them first? Don’t worry about whether the characters are repetitive and the show is good or not.”
“Indeed, you all have too many common shortcomings. Younger." Lin Suyang said.
Li Zhibai: "I like the villain in "Nineteen Years" very much. I have never played a pervert. I have been reading scripts these days and it is very enjoyable."
Lin Suyang smiled.
He said: "In this play, Ji Miao's agent contacted me and said that Ji Miao wanted to play the role of your girlfriend who is on the run with you."
Li Zhibai was stunned.
"I still find it strange. I said, Ji Miao has only acted in movies and never in TV series. Why is she suddenly interested in a role in a TV series?" Lin Suyang looked at Li Zhibai with a teasing smile. "You didn't tell me these things in advance. If one day the media finds out and is exposed, I won't have time to react."
Li Zhibai: " ...Sigh, the situation is more complicated than you think, and it is more complicated than I thought. I am a big fool, and I actually think that things between men and women can be consensual."
Lin Suyang: "... This sentence comes from a boy who is only twenty-two years old, which makes me feel ashamed."
"What do you want to say?" Li Zhibai looked at Lin Suyang sideways.
"You are only twenty-two years old, why are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf?" Lin Suyang laughed and scolded, "You are so old-fashioned."
Li Zhibai: "...fuck."
Lin Suyang: "You and me Tell me what happened to Ji Miao. At least what happened. I need to know, so that no matter what happens later, I can wipe your ass. Wait, don’t tell me that you suddenly became a father like Ma Zhiyuan, right?”
Li Zhibai? : "Bah!"
Lin Suyang let out a long breath.
"Actually, it's okay to be a father. As long as it's not life or death, it's not a big deal." Lin Suyang sighed.
Li Zhibai looked at him sideways, "The nervous look on your face just now made it look like the sky was falling. It doesn't look like you are so open-minded now."
Lin Suyang: "Speak quickly. , stop talking nonsense.”
Li Zhibai just said it.
He scratched his head in worry.
"I have told her many times that I don't want to have a fixed relationship now, but she doesn't care what I say."
Lin Suyang: "You deserve it, the rabbit won't eat the grass beside its nest." .”
李Zhi Bai: "I'm telling you this, I'm not here to hear what you say."
Lin Suyang: "Who asked you to do such a thing? I thought you were really a handsome young man with a simple heart. .
“Do you believe it? I have never set up any innocent relationship with my fans. Do you still think that I am pure and stoic? Li Zhibai looked at him speechlessly, "I am twenty-two years old this year, not sixty-two." ”
Lin Suyang: "..."
"This is not worthy of your justification." Lin Suyang said speechlessly, "Even if your fans don't regard you as an innocent boyfriend, they definitely won't be happy to see you sleeping with someone else. "
"Oh, shit, what does it have to do with who I sleep with? I'm not a monk? You’re not a nun. How old are you that you should keep your integrity forever?”
Lin Suyang: “This is the truth, but I still advise you to be careful in your words and actions.”
Li Zhibai: "You don't need to tell me, I have already learned this lesson from Ji Miao."
"Ji Miao, let me tell you as someone who has been there. No matter what, you are the one who caused the trouble. How do you make it clear to Ji Miao? That's your business, but you don't want to Hurt someone else’s little girl, When it comes to emotions, no one can control themselves. Maybe one day you can't control yourself and have feelings for another woman. After a year and a half, you will know how Ji Miao feels. "
Li Zhibai: "Don't make me sound like a heartless scumbag."
"Of course you are not. To be honest, you are one of the most consistent and best artists I know." Lin Suyang said, "But just like that, I I just want to remind you that saints will make mistakes and smart people will be confused. I am afraid that you will be impulsive or confused and do something irreparable. "
Lin Suyang is of course sincere.
Li Zhibai: “After talking for a long time, you just told me a bunch of values, but you didn’t say a word about methodology.”
Lin Suyang laughed.
"Brother will tell you a lesson from someone who has experienced it. When people are crying and begging you to intervene in matters between two people, don't intervene and run away." Lin Suyang said, "Stand by my side. Angle, what’s going on between you and her right now is not a big deal, and I don’t need it either. The worst result of interfering is that she accuses you of getting out of bed and not recognizing anyone, but to put it coldly, you didn't trick her into sleeping with her. It's just like you said, it's just a matter of principle. , What do I care about?”
“Fuck.” Li Zhi was convinced.
Lin Suyang patted Li Zhibai on the shoulder.

The end of every year is the busiest time in the entertainment industry because of various awards ceremonies and various grand ceremonies.
This year, it was once again difficult to see Lu Yanhe because he was on the set.
When the nomination list for the Galaxy Awards came out, Lu Yanhe once again appeared on it unsurprisingly, and was still nominated for the Best Actor and Best Screenplay awards.
The organizers of the Galaxy Awards also contacted Lu Yanhe as soon as possible, wanting to confirm that he could attend the awards ceremony.
However, Chen Ziyan could only decline.
"He is filming "Love Letter". He is not an actor, but a director. His time is very tight. If he asks for leave, the crew will have to stop work for two days, and the losses will be quite big."
One of the organizers of the Galaxy Awards I heard that Lu Yanhe couldn't come, but that wouldn't work. People from all walks of life went out and found various connections, just to get Lu Yanhe over.
As the most popular movie star now, how could he not come to attend.
As a result, the result of the negotiation was that Lu Yanhe really couldn't come, but he could give Chen Bige two days' leave so that Chen Bige could attend.
Originally Chen Bige couldn’t come either.
"Are you really not going? You have a pretty good chance of winning the award this time." Chen Ziyan said, "Huang Kairen and Zhou Yuning both won the Best Actor at the previous Fehong Awards and Lingyun Awards, and Shang Yong Zhou Youshi has won the third prize several times. The award is extremely difficult, and "Upstream" is basically not competitive for you."
According to Chen Ziyan, the Galaxy Award is most likely to be Lu Yanhe's first time winning the three domestic film awards for Best Actor. The protagonist's podium.
However, Lu Yanhe decided not to go.
Filming, filming. Filming is what he wants to do and what he is really willing to do.
Those who win prizes do not win prizes. If they win prizes, it does not mean that the prize does not belong to them just because they did not go. There was no point in going if he didn't win the award. It’s okay to go and show off to others when you’re free. I’m filming a movie, so how can I have that time?
Finally, it was reported that Lu Yanhe was determined not to attend the Galaxy Awards ceremony.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
Before Lu Yanhe’s fans had time to say anything, Yu Jiang, who had not shown up for a long time, appeared again and sarcastically said:
——This is because I have never won an award, so I don’t want to embarrass myself. Already? A non-Ichiban character came to compete for Best Actor, and he promoted himself to be very competitive, but now he has finally been slapped in the face, it's a spectacle.
It was no surprise that Yu Jiang was criticized by Lu Yanhe’s fans.
After experiencing it so many times, Yu Jiang no longer became angry and didn't care about the voices scolding her. She lived firmly in her own world and believed that Lu Yanhe's current momentum was created by him and his team.
Until Chen Siqi posted a post on Weibo in the evening, he asked lightly: Even if he didn’t say he won an award, he didn’t know when Mr. Yu Jiang’s film would be nominated for a three-award award? Oh, maybe she will never get it in this life, because she is not proud of the nomination, but ashamed of it, haha.
Li Zhibai and Yan Liang appeared in the comment area at the same time, leaving the same two words: mighty.
After seeing this, Yu Jiang took several deep breaths, trying to calm himself down, but after a while, his defenses were broken.
She: How can Xiaoqing Xiaoai’s movie compare to the artistic masterpiece of a talented boy? I don’t dare to expect to win awards. The audience’s love is enough.
Chen Siqi forwarded: Teacher Yu, are you saying that "Flowers on the Stars" with a box office of 130 million yuan is enough to prove the audience's love? As long as it is a movie in which Yan He participates, whether it is a first-tier movie or not, the box office will be higher than 130 million. Teacher Yu, how do you find a sense of superiority from Yan He?
Someone asked Chen Siqi: Why are you, a young girl, so mean to a senior who is older than you?
Chen Siqi replied: You respect the old and love the young so much, go get her foot water and wash her feet.
Chen Siqi replied unceremoniously, put down the phone, and exuded a chilling air on his face.
Entertainment critic Guan Su Chenshen commented: Chen Siqi alone is like Lu Yanhe’s thousands of troops. How many ugly clowns are there in the internal entertainment industry behind Yu Jiang? (End of chapter)
