Chapter 563 I am right


In China, compared to celebrities and entertainers, people who work in the entertainment industry are actually called literary and artistic workers.

That was a title from a long time ago, and almost no one still uses it that way. It has almost become an honorific in some specific situations.

For artists, in fact, at a certain stage, if you have accumulated certain achievements and reputation in the industry, you will become an "old artist with both virtue and art".

Many artists of the older generation are actually striving for this goal.

Lu Yanhe actually never thought that he would be so quickly associated with the title of "literary and artistic worker", and he never thought that he would be called "a young artist with both virtue and art" by some media ".

Seeing this evaluation of him by the media, Lu Yanhe felt very ashamed.

However, after the Spring Festival Gala, when the song "Chinese" was played in the streets and alleys across the country, it became really popular.

In the live broadcast room, many people were also covering this song.

This song is catchy, has a simple melody and is easy to learn.

Chen Siqi’s nephew Jiang Huadong was wearing headphones and learning to hum, saying that all his classmates were learning this song.

Sure enough, to this day, even if the Spring Festival Gala is no longer the Spring Festival Gala it used to be, it still has the influence it should have. As long as your work is strong enough, you can still become popular all over the country overnight.

Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi stayed at her grandparents’ house for three days, and then went to Iceland together.

They stayed there for a week, enjoying their world without work or other people.

At this time, the shortlist for this year's Sittur Film Festival has also come out.

Chinese-language films have once again been shortlisted for the main competition.

The fact that Zero was shortlisted is actually nothing.

The Situl Film Festival prefers author films, but among Chinese films, there are indeed relatively few author films, and the quantity cannot increase. Naturally, it is unable to steadily output excellent works.

However, because the performance of Chinese-language films in the past two years was so good and they were on the verge of taking off, in the past two years they have failed at international film festivals, leaving everyone disappointed and inevitably complaining.

Some people even sent messages to Lu Yanhe, asking him what he thought of this situation.

Lu Yanhe thought to himself, what can be said about this.

The film industry and environment are different, which only shows that Chinese-language films in the past two years have not followed the path of the West Tur Film Festival.

This year’s Spring Festival is completely occupied by commercial blockbusters.

Domestic movies are still in an unstable stage of rapid box office growth.

How much potential the market has has not yet been fully explored.

The audience’s habit of going to cinemas to watch movies is still in the process of being established.

At such a stage, we can't expect many auteur films to appear in the general environment. Directors have been sucked away by commercial films and genre films.

The only one that is still launching author-directed films on a regular basis is the domestic Youth Film Venture Capital Fund.

Lu Yanhe now increasingly believes that any talk about movies regardless of industry and environment is just rhetoric.

“It is a good thing that Chinese-language films can shine in international film festivals, but it does not mean that something serious has happened if it does not appear in international film festivals. It seems that the film is not good.” Lu Yanhe In a phone interview with a media outlet, he said this directly, " The current stage of Chinese-language films is inseparable from our market. When the market gradually stabilizes, both commercial films and art films will have their own stable production and sales industry chains. Naturally, there will be more films that can appear in film festivals. Author-director on ”
"Chinese-language films suddenly experienced a big explosion in the past two years. It just happened to catch up with the opportunity. Everyone came up with works suitable for the film festival at that time." Lu Yanhe said, "Take myself as an example. I have made many films suitable for film festivals in the past few years, so there are many shortlisted films. I filmed less this year because I also have my own career plans. I don’t think that there is something wrong with Chinese films just because there are no Chinese films in the two film festivals. I have watched them in the past two years. With many good scripts, there will be more and more good movies.”

After Lu Yanhe's speech was published by the media, it aroused criticism from some people.

The criticism is mainly focused on: You yourself know that you haven’t made many real movies in the past two years, and you have been making tacky commercial movies like "Fire" and "The Mist". How dare you say that?

When Lu Yanhe saw this criticism of Lu Yanhe, he just smiled noncommittally.

He just needs to express his attitude.

-

During this week in Iceland, Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi stayed in the house most of the time.

They lived in a small cabin here.

Condition is very good.

When the wind and snow are not so heavy, we will go out for a walk together - going out in full gear, as bloated as a penguin.

In Iceland, almost most of the time, they were the only two people wherever they looked.

It seems that between heaven and earth, there is a vast space. In such an environment, they cuddled each other, held hands, trudged hard in the snow, and their hearts became closer.

"You asked me to live here for half a year. I'm definitely not used to it, but it's really good to stay like this for a week."

Chen Siqi leaned into Lu Yanhe's arms, the two of them They sat together by the stove to warm themselves, her face glowing red in the light of the fire.

Lu Yanhe said: "Try to have more holidays like this every year."

"Yes." Chen Siqi nodded, "After I go back, there will be endless work again."
< br>

"Don't you love work?"

"Love is love, but it is not endless." Chen Siqi said, "You should not be able to understand the feeling of opening your eyes every day and starting to deal with things. Yes. Although there are many things happening there, the nature is different.”

"Yes." Lu Yanhe nodded, "Not to mention anything else, just participating in some meetings over at Linghe made me feel uncomfortable. I didn't even want to participate, but Sister Ziyan insisted on letting me participate, and said that it would enrich my life. My life experience."

"Sister Ziyan said that is a big mistake." Chen Siqi laughed.

Lu Yanhe: “Actually, sometimes I feel that it’s not that I don’t understand. Later I slowly realized that I seemed to be subconsciously resisting understanding these things.”

"Huh?"

"Don't laugh when I say this. I always feel that the higher the degree of socialization, the less sensitive things you have. So to a certain extent, I am more resistant to this kind of socialization. "

Chen Siqi nodded.

“I understand.”

“Actually, I may not be right to think so.”

"Whether he is right or wrong, I can do whatever I want now." Chen Siqi suddenly sat up straight and looked at Lu Yanhe at close range, "Just like what I want now -"

She clamped Lu Yanhe's face from both sides with her hands like pressing a hamburger.

Lu Yanhe's eyes widened in surprise, and the flesh on his face was squeezed into a ball.

Lu Yanhe is actually not sure why Chen Siqi suddenly acted like this.

But——

She can do whatever she wants.

He laughed.

-

After returning to China, Lu Yanhe quietly stayed at Ziyuan Bridge for two weeks, writing the script for the second season of "Silent River" that he had written one after another from beginning to end. I stroked my tail again.

So, fans who had not seen Lu Yanhe live broadcast for a long time saw Lu Yanhe live broadcast for two consecutive weeks, working at his desk for at least ten hours from morning to night every day.

Many fans were surprised to learn that he was writing the script for the second season of "Silent River."

However, when Lu Yanhe broadcast live like this for two consecutive weeks, everyone could see how strong his concentration and determination were when he was writing the script, and suddenly he understood why his creation speed was so fast. So fast.

Some writer friends Lu Yanhe knew said jokingly: They were involved.

The live video of Lu Yanhe writing at his desk for ten hours every day for two consecutive weeks was also made into a picture, and many readers of the writer urged updates and books in the comment area.

Liu Jiazhen made a very helpless expression and said: Fortunately, Lu Yanhe is an actor, and secondly a screenwriter, especially if he is not a writer, otherwise he would be involved in his death.

Mingyin retweeted Liu Jiazhen's Weibo post and said: I don't dare to say that I am diligent anymore.

But in fact, Mingyin is a very diligent writer.

She can basically write one or two books every year, and sometimes she can even publish three books.

After writing too many scripts, Lu Yanhe really felt why many people said that writing scripts is actually a job.

It doesn’t need so many literary things.

It is a form of conveying feelings through line drawing.

Once the whole story is figured out, the screenwriter only needs to write the story and dialogue carefully and step by step.

The more you write, the better you will become.

As for the text, style, and rhythm of the dialogue, it all depends on skill rather than hard work.

Lu Yanhe has been reading a lot over the years. The purpose at the beginning was because he liked it, and also because he didn't want to be out of stock. When acting, he couldn't accurately convey some subtle emotions - when his life experience was not rich enough, he could only increase it through reading. Your own emotional experience, even if it is just a fictitious emotional experience.

However, slowly, Lu Yanhe also realized that a lot of reading had an extremely obvious help in the language rhythm of his script writing.

From the very beginning of writing a script, every sentence had to be thought about before being typed on the keyboard. Now, there is almost no need to think. After thinking clearly about the main personality and story development of each character, he He felt as if he had become a carrier, a "ruthless coding machine". He didn't know what word he would type before the next word was typed.

Writing has become an intuitive habit.

So, he wrote faster and faster and more steadily.

These two weeks of intensive creation allowed him to rewrite "Silent River" from beginning to end twice.

A total of nearly 300,000 words of script were filmed into a series, which is only fifteen episodes.

After editing, it may be less.

He sent the script to Chen Lingling.

After sending it, he felt as if half his life had been taken away from him. He suddenly became depressed and depressed.

Li Zhibai and Yan Liang both joined the group and could not accompany him.

Lu Yanhe searched around and finally found Peng Zhixing coming out to eat and drink.

-

In Yuming in February, the city is still closed due to heavy snow.

The heavy snow falls continuously.

There are many choices for eating out in this weather, but the easiest choice to think of is still hot pot.

Peng Zhixing said that he had eaten a very good Lao Ya hot pot soup base and wanted to take him there.

Peng Zhixing drove to pick up Lu Yanhe.

When they met, Peng Zhixing laughed that he looked like he had been sucked dry by a goblin.

Lu Yanhe pursed his lips and gave him the middle finger.

Both of them were dressed very simply - they both wore long black down jackets, covering themselves tightly to prevent the cold wind from taking advantage of them.

Peng Zhixing asked: "Have you finished writing your script?"

"It feels very empty after it is finished." Lu Yanhe laughed.

Peng Zhixing nodded: "I understand, the kind of thing where you concentrate all your energy and go all out to complete one thing, and you suddenly fall into a kind of despair. I often finish recording the program late at night, alone. On the way home while driving, the huge city, the flat There will be people coming and going, but by that time, there will be no one, and there will be that sense of emptiness you mentioned."

Whether it is Lu Yanhe or Peng Zhixing, their creative methods are actually different. It's hard to get immediate feedback. Of course, this does not mean that immediate feedback is the most valuable. But people are inevitably like this. When they create something, they hope to get feedback as soon as possible——

What do you think of it?

How would you feel?

Few people create a work that is 100% for themselves. Most people want to be recognized by others, or to be liked by others.

So, after the creation is completed and before it meets people, during this period, there is not only the feeling of mental exhaustion and dryness after a long period of creation, but also the worry of not knowing what will happen.

Lu Yanhe rarely takes the initiative to ask others out.

This time he asked one by one, do you have time? Let's go out to have a meal together and chat. His behavior was considered abnormal by some people. Even if he had work and couldn't come, they would still call him and ask him if something had happened. He was very concerned, so concerned that Lu Yanhe couldn't help but laugh or cry.

"The recording of "The Birth of an Actor" will officially start in March." Peng Zhixing said, "It will be a very exhausting job, so you should take a good rest."

Lu Yanhe nodded.

In the evening, while eating hot pot, they talked about the show and future plans.

"How did you come up with the program "The Birth of an Actor"?" Peng Zhixing asked.

Lu Yanhe said: "When I was filming "The Mist", I found the American actors who worked with me. I found that each of them had a very solid acting style and foundation. When I asked them, I found out that they They have all been performing on stage since they were young. Before they officially participated in film and television drama performances, they already had rich acting experience. I feel that in fact, our domestic film and television actors still lack this kind of stage performance experience. It just so happens that Sister Ziyan’s agency has signed a few very capable actors who are not well known now. In order to make them famous, I thought of doing an acting competition show like this.”

Peng Zhixing said: "I am not an actor, but I am still quite nervous about this show."

"Nervous? Why?" Lu Yanhe asked.

Peng Zhixing said: "You who are very daring to speak out, Chen Lingling who is merciless, and Chen Bige and Shang Yongzhou, two big guys who have become gods in acting, how many of you can do this? In this show, when evaluating the performances of dozens of actors, I am worried that some actors will collapse on the stage. "Collapse?" A big question mark appeared on Lu Yanhe's forehead.

“Have you not thought that some actors may not perform well and collapse if you point out their problems?” Peng Zhixing asked.

"Will you collapse if a problem is pointed out?" Lu Yanhe was even more surprised.

Peng Zhixing was silent for a while and said: "I suddenly felt that it was really necessary for you to do this show."

"Why?"

"Let you see it. Let’s take a look at the real entertainment industry, rather than the film and television crew you are familiar with, where everyone is excellent.”

Lu Yanhe: “… Could it be that the actors they selected for the competition are still unreliable. ?”

"Don't you know that although the program team also needs actors with acting skills and talents, it also needs drama experts and craftsmen?" Peng Zhixing hit the nail on the head.

Lu Yanhe was in high spirits.

-

The voice-over asked: "Why do you want to participate in the show "The Birth of an Actor"?"

Yoo Ji-yin said: "Come and try the possibilities of life. Sex." Zhang Pingqing said: "Let more people see me and see an actor named Zhang Pingqing."

Liu Yu said: "Prove to others that I can act."

The voice-over asked: "What do you hope to get from this stage?"

Wang Dashan said: "An opportunity to exercise."

Chenghai said: "An opportunity to perform."

Wu Mingming said: "Get the audience."

The voice-over asked: "Do you think you can be recognized by the instructors?"

Zhen Hongyu smiled: "I hope so, but... They are all the best actors. Whether they can be recognized depends on my own performance."

The voiceover asked: "With your current status, fame and strength, why did you agree to participate in our show? During our meeting, some people said that you should actually be a mentor."

Zhen Hongyu He quickly shook his hand and said, "The lineup of mentors on your show is too scary. I'm not qualified. Don't flatter me."

She laughed again: "But why I agreed, firstly, there was no script on hand that I particularly wanted to shoot, and this program can cooperate with many great directors and actors, even if it is just a small film. Secondly, because I have also been working on it for a long time. I haven’t heard the true evaluation of my performance from people in the industry. Basically, when I act now, I can only listen to "

The voice-over asked: "What is your current masterpiece?"

Chenghai was silent for two seconds, smiled sadly, and said: "Lu Yanhe, Li Zhibaihe. Yan Liang’s former teammates?”

Cheng Hai’s face in the camera is somewhat lonely.

The voice-over asked: "Do you still have contact with them?"

Cheng Hai seemed to be a little confused in his answer: "They are all very good people, and our relationship has not changed much."

The voice-over asked: "Do you think you are lucky?"

Zhang Pingqing nodded, "I'm very lucky. Although I have always been tepid as an actor, my life has always been smooth. I have never encountered any major setbacks. I have always had enough food and clothing. Even if I am not as good as an actor, I am very lucky. Excellent, and I don’t have to worry about food and drink.”

Liu Zhiyin said: “I am actually lucky enough to be here and answer this question.”

He Sha: “I don’t want to. It’s a shame, but I seem to have missed out on the most important opportunities in my life. Did you know that I almost became the heroine of director Chen Lingling’s new play?”

...

On the day when the pilot film of "The Birth of an Actor" was released, Yuehutai and Northern Lights Video held a grand press conference.

Peng Zhixing hosted.

None of the three instructors attended, and only Lu Yanhe went to stand on the stage.

When this pilot film edited from early interviews was played on site, Lu Yanhe was quite emotional.

Especially the part about seeing Chenghai.

Lu Yanhe was actually worried about Cheng Hai.

He also knows very well that Cheng Hai’s participation in this show is also a difficulty that he needs to overcome.

When he answered that his masterpiece was the former teammates of Lu Yanhe, Li Zhibai and Yan Liang, Lu Yanhe's heart felt sour.

The fate of life is unpredictable.

At that time, Chenghai was in the first echelon of popularity among Fengzhi Boys.

Now it has not reached this position.

Lu Yanhe sincerely hopes that he can get up again.

Also coming to the scene today is Liu Zhiyao.

An actress who has a similar experience to Cheng Hai. She was once popular but is now out of fashion.

As a representative of the participating actors, she came to the stage to speak. Before she could say a few words, tears began to flow.

“It’s really been a long time since I had a chance to perform in front of an audience. Friends from the media who know me a little bit may know that I have been filming Internet movies for the past two years. Some friends also asked me why it took so long You haven’t seen me anymore, are you going to stop filming?” Liu Zhiyao said while crying. It’s not that I stopped filming, it’s that it’s hard for the scenes I filmed to come in front of you. So, special thanks to Lu Yanhe for planning such a program, which gives us the opportunity to get back into the eyes of so many viewers.”

After saying that, Liu Zhiyao bowed deeply in the direction where Lu Yanhe was sitting.

At this moment, Lu Yanhe was so frightened that his face turned green.

He quickly stood up and waved his hand, but felt that this was not enough, so he bowed back.

"..."

Peng Zhixing's words that night echoed in Lu Yanhe's mind again——

——Let you see the real entertainment industry.

——The program team needs more drama and drama.

No matter how true what Liu Zhiyao said just now is, but in front of so many media, thanking him in such an exaggerated way must be a "show", right?

Lu Yanhe: "..."

In the entertainment industry, people more or less have a "show" mentality.

It’s just that the collaborators Lu Yanhe met before, at least in their interactions with him, all showed a more realistic side.

-

As soon as the press conference ended, Lu Yanhe was ready to leave.

Peng Zhixing sent him a message: Would you like to have dinner together later?

Lu Yanhe: Is there anyone else?

Peng Zhixing: It’s just me, just eat whatever you want, I’ll find a store.

Lu Yanhe: OK.

He added: I was really embarrassed today.

Peng Zhixing: I saw your expression and couldn't help but laugh.

Lu Yanhe: Liu Zhiyao...have you known him before?

Peng Zhixing: I’ve heard of it, but I’ve never met in person. However, the most popular thing about today’s press conference was that she bowed to you to thank you, and you hurriedly responded with a video of bowing, which went viral on the Internet.

Lu Yanhe: I don’t want to hear it, so stop talking.

Peng Zhixing didn't care whether he wanted to hear it or not, he sent an animated picture over.

I don’t know which unscrupulous netizen actually made an animated picture of this scene.

In particular, it also highlights his "shocked" eyes widening first, then waving his hands helplessly, and finally bowing to Liu Zhiyao in a hurry.

The whole process was extremely funny.

Lu Yanhe: "..."

He covered his face with one hand.

When Wang Biao saw him like this, he couldn't help but curl his lips.

I must have seen it.

At this time, someone knocked on the door.

Wang Biao went to open the door, but he didn't expect that the person knocking on the door was Liu Zhiyao.

He was stunned.

Liu Zhiyao asked: "Is Yan He here?"

Wang Biao said: "Please wait a moment, Brother Lu is talking to someone on the phone."

He kept the door ajar. He looked back at Lu Yanhe.

Lu Yanhe looked at him doubtfully.

Wang Biao mouthed: "Liu Zhiyao."

Lu Yanhe's face turned dark instantly.

Wang Biao continued to mouth: "What should I do?"

Lu Yanhe sighed and motioned for her to come in.

Leaving late.

"Hello, Sister Yao...Sister Yao." Lu Yanhe immediately changed his words.

Liu Zhiyao had an apologetic smile on his face and said, "I just noticed that it seems that some of the things I just said have caused you some trouble."

"No, no." Lu Yanhe shook his hand. , said: "I didn't expect it at first, I was shocked."

Liu Zhiyao said: "But what I said is true."

"Thank you Sister Zhiyao. In fact, Yuehutai and Northern Lights Video have done a lot of work. I just took on a false reputation." Lu Yanhe said, "I am looking forward to your performance in the show."
< br>Liu Zhiyao hummed, "I will behave well. Are you free later? If so, let's have lunch together?"

Lu Yanhe: "I have already made an appointment with someone else. Let's eat together next time."

He smiled and said: "Sister Zhiyao, I'm leaving first. We'll see you back when the show is being recorded."

He didn't leave any words for Liu Zhiyao, for fear that Liu Zhiyao would ask her if he could go with him.

-

“This is just the tip of the iceberg.”

Peng Zhixing said to Lu Yanhe with a smile.

Lu Yanhe put on plastic gloves, tore open the roasted chicken on the table, sprinkled it with chili powder, sighed in frustration, and said, "I'm starting to hesitate now, should I let the bodyguard rest while I'm there?" The door of the room is guarded, and no knocking is allowed in the future without an appointment.”

Peng Zhixing: "Actually, if you don't do this to your current position, things like this will keep happening. Many people will try their best to get close to you and find you."

Peng Zhixing's words As soon as it landed, Lu Yanhe's cell phone buzzed and vibrated.

Lu Yanhe picked it up and took a look.

It was Fuli who sent him a message: Are you okay? When I saw the animated pictures on the Internet, you almost broke into pieces. [haha]

Lu Yanhe put down his phone.

"Brother Zhixing, what about you? Have you never encountered this kind of thing?"

"Definitely not as many as you have encountered." Peng Zhixing said, "Besides, I have encountered It’s different from you.”

Lu Yanhe: “Brother Zhixing, how did you deal with it?”

"I will help those who can, but I will reject those whose words and deeds are too excessive." Peng Zhixing said, "It may be difficult for you to imagine that some people can be shameless in order to achieve their own goals." To what extent?"

Lu Yanhe: "I met. I have seen shameless people."

Peng Zhixing: "I suspect that the shameless I understand is not the same as the shameless you understand."

Lu Yanhe: "Why do I feel discriminated against by you? ."

Peng Zhixing laughed.

"But anyway, this program is very good and very meaningful." Peng Zhixing said seriously, "The more I know about this program, the more I think so. Especially after watching the pilot film released today, it is very different from what is currently on the market. It’s different from other programs on the show. I found this one These people are all representative and have stories. I looked at my phone just now. Not only was the scene between you and Liu Zhiyao on the hot search list, but Cheng Hai and Liu Zhiyin were also on the hot search list.”

"Sister Zhiyin is because she is already very popular, Chenghai... nine times out of ten It was Zhou Ping'an who bought him the hot search." Lu Yanhe said, "But indeed, it was very clear when we were selecting people that there must be some people who have stories and can spark discussions. "

Peng Zhixing: “A program like this only runs for twelve episodes. It’s a pity, we could do more.”

Lu Yanhe said: “If you do too much, it won’t look good. Put the best content into the feature film.”

Peng Zhixing: “ Will you do a second season of this show?”

"I'll do it if the response is good." Lu Yanhe said, "In fact, I hope that this program can stimulate everyone's discussion on acting, what is good acting, what is a good actor, and have more people participate in the discussion, instead of just being blindly criticized. I have some rigid opinions to define it. I saw some acting skills that were explosive and plastic surgery before, and some performances were expressionless and acted like a blind person. People...well, it sounds like I am quite arrogant and think that others are wrong. But it does not mean that a performance without expression is blind. Some people are more sad than heartbroken, and some are really indifferent. As a result, a group of people led I thought it was the same performance, so I wanted to go up and argue with them, but after thinking about it, forget it.”

Peng Zhixing couldn’t stop laughing.

“You are so excited.”

Lu Yanhe said: “I want to be rational and calm, but I can’t do it, because after I know what is good, I can’t stand some people calling a deer a horse. The most terrifying thing is that many people now refer to deer as horses. It’s not that they really don’t know right from wrong. It’s just that in order to chase stars and speak for his idol, he tells lies with open eyes. This is the most terrifying thing, especially a group of fans who make up lies in 360 degrees.”
< br>Peng Zhixing: "You don't seem to like your attitude towards fans."

"I...I really don't like these fans on the Internet now, including my own." Lu Yanhe said, "I don't like them because they like one person, so it's like locusts crossing the border, and no second voice is allowed to appear."

“What if someone scolds you in a different way?”

“Let’s see how they scold you. The scolding is well-targeted. In fact, I’m quite happy to see it. " Lu Yanhe said, "I'm really not flaunting myself. Sometimes I will block some comments that are full of swear words or distort the facts, or make some discriminatory remarks, but if you just say that you don't like me, , or my acting is not good, I really don’t care what you say. If you can give some constructive criticism and suggestions, I will be happier.”

Peng Zhixing nodded.

“But we can only adapt to the status quo.”

"Yes." Lu Yanhe nodded, "I have never thought about being able to fight against the status quo, but if it can change the status quo a little bit, that would be good."

"Have you ever thought about it, what if you The changes you want to make may not be a good thing for the current situation?" Peng Zhixing asked suddenly.

“I used to hesitate because of such an idea, but now I rarely do.” Lu Yanhe said, “Unless we are completely disconnected from the world and the surroundings, we will be affected every moment. Doing good or bad things around you is better than doing nothing. And I also believe that no matter how talented a person is, he can do it. But it depends on the macro historical process.”

“I believe that I am doing the right thing, and I am determined to do the right thing. Only by firming up this belief can I really do something. Otherwise, I will never do anything. Worrying about gains and losses, always looking forward and backward, you will never achieve anything." (End of Chapter)
