The Director's Road of Airflow

In 2021, Lu Ming will have 0 new endorsements and 0 new magazine covers.The number of existing endorsements is 5. Among them, there is one spokesperson for a domestic mobile phone brand, one spokesperson for a relatively popular and affordable clothing brand, and two food spokespersons. It counts as an endorsement, because the title is "ambassador".

In short, in terms of online traffic, this is an extremely bleak level.

Many people think that Lu Ming has gone downhill in his acting career, and it is difficult to get back up.

When Lu Ming broke up, they were not optimistic about Lu Ming's return to the top, because the fans who climbed the wall already had their own new idols. Besides, not all fans lost their fans because of love, and they also had careers. The fans lost their fans because the movie box office and TV ratings both fell, and the acting skills showed no signs of improvement.

No one thinks that Lu Ming can be completely reborn by breaking up.

They didn't expect that Lu Ming would fall while hanging the wire, suffer brain damage and lose his memory.

Before amnesia, Lu Ming overcame depression, but he couldn't overcome the inferiority complex developed during depression in a short time. Depression can also cause damage to a person's integrity of personality, and it will make people fall into self-doubt and cannot extricate themselves. The scale test results show that it is normal, and he will return to the vigorous boy before the family accident.

After learning from the psychiatrist the reason for his emotional breakdown, Lu Ming gradually remembered some fragments of his life in the past three years.He is now like a bystander, seeing how he was struggling at the beginning, and he kept saying to himself at that time, "Be strong, work hard, be worthy of fans' efforts, and meet everyone's expectations", but a depressed patient is not subjective. If you want to work hard, you can face the challenges that life throws with a high-spirited attitude.

Amnesia is like a chance God gave him again. Because of the loss and blurring of part of his memory, his inferiority complex is not so serious, and his state is closer to his energetic 18-year-old self.

When Lu Ming got the news that "Pretty Woman", one of the top five women's magazines, invited him to shoot the cover of its quarterly issue in March, he naturally accepted the news without feeling burdened.

In 2021, the number of Lu Ming's magazine covers is 0, but in the past two years, he still had a lot of cover shooting opportunities, including the covers of the top five women's magazines and first-line men's magazines, but the cover effects he shot were not ideal.Contrary to what some people imagine, patients with depression do not have a natural sense of melancholy. When taking hard photos, there will be a light melancholy temperament, which helps to increase the sense of story.

This is not the case.

At least after Lu Ming was depressed, he chose to put on a mask when facing the public. He tended to pretend that he was happy to reassure others. He didn't want everyone to know that he was already moderately depressed.

Even when shooting magazines, he is in a state of self-examination all the time. He needs to confirm that he looks like a "normal person" all the time, so it is difficult to express some deep thoughts and feelings in his heart. The effect looks fake and empty.

If he didn't have amnesia, he should be very panic now, because the experience of the past three years has cast a shadow on his magazine cover shooting.Every time the cover was released, he didn't want to read Fanhei's comments, but he couldn't help his curiosity.Seeing black fans and passers-by commenting on "too rustic", "no sense of story", "very strange, not fashionable at all", he will also feel uncomfortable.

Watching Ai Cao argue for him, trying to find angles to praise him on the cover that he can't even boast, he felt even more sad and sad, and hated why he fell into depression and why he couldn't have a good life. Do what you should do well.Obviously everything shouldn't be like this.

The shooting of the cover of "Beauty" was the smoothest for him in the past three years.

The theme of this shooting is "cross-border". This word is very controversial for Lu Ming, because many people do not recognize his identity as a "director", and even his basic identity as an "actor" has been questioned.Such a Lu Ming filmed a micro movie in a variety show, can it be considered a cross-border?

But at the shooting scene, facing the props of the camera, Lu Ming's inner emotions are very calm. He is very aware of the controversies on his body, and he also understands the possible bad reviews. When taking the photographer's shots for the magazine cover for himself, he was not afraid, but very calm, willing to share his thoughts at the moment, and he wrote his ambition to tell a good story in his eyes.

This is an extremely successful magazine cover.One eye of Lu Ming is hidden behind the camera lens, and the other eye is calm and powerful, showing the tenacity and vigor of this young life.This photo cannot be described as "cool", "shabby", "full of fashion sense" and "full of high-end sense" when evaluating magazine covers. See Lu Ming's vigorous vitality and strong ambition.

Ambition is not terrible, and desire is not a scourge. A person in his early 20s becomes an old monk and begins to study the thoughts of Huang Lao. The so-called "Buddhist youth" is worthy of vigilance.You are at your most unscrupulous age, you are young, energetic, have no family, the responsibilities on your shoulders are not heavy, and the cost of trial and error is not high, you should work hard and give it a try.Because this is the time when you are closest to the ceiling of your ability, the further you go, the more heavy realistic factors will pull you to the ground.

After the pre-sale link of the magazine was released on the official blog of "Beauty", the magazine with a unit price of 20 yuan sold 1 copies in an hour.

在越来越多新流量的粉丝急于用一个杂志销量数字证明自己爱豆真的火了、爆了的2022年，600万的杂志销售额已经算不上一个令人吃惊的数字了，但比起陆鸣自己2020年10的银十单人封限量3万份花了6个小时才卖完，这已经是明显的热度回升了。

On February 2022, 2, in the morning, the wormwood people were still praising Lu Ming for his strong sense of cover story, the good sales this time, and Lu Ming's cross-border success, bragging about his brilliant life as a "slash youth"; in the afternoon, Lu Ming Ming Heifan is gearing up, ready to usher in their own home court.

Because at three o'clock in the afternoon, the official blog of the crew of "Tianshan Enmity Records", which has been silent for several months, suddenly posted a message saying that it will be broadcast at [-]:[-] on Mango TV, and it will be broadcast tonight.

A marketing account reposted the news on Weibo, and the hot comments were:

[Xiao Zhang, Xiao Zhang, very arrogant]: Lu Ming's acting skills are his greatest weapon to attract fans, and he will lose to everyone on such a stage.

This reply has more than 2 likes.

Frozen three feet is not a one-day cold, to eliminate the audience's negative impression of Lu Ming's acting skills, two episodes of variety shows are not enough, and a burst of New Year's Eve stage is not enough, he must produce recognized film and television works.

And even Ai Cao didn't know what kind of state Lu Ming was in when he was filming "Tianshan Enqiulu".

After all, after Lu Ming seemed to hit his head, he seemed to think about it all of a sudden. First, he officially announced his breakup, and then he showed his long-lost professionalism.And most of this upcoming show was filmed before he broke his head.

It was during the filming of this TV series that Lu Ming accidentally fell while hanging the wire, and his brain was damaged. Afterwards, the crew stopped working for several months until January 2022, 1. Lu Ming ended the second phase of "I Am an Actor" For the recording, other cast members also had their schedules, so the reshoots began.The make-up scenes accounted for about 10%.

Lu Ming signed a total of two episodes of the variety show "I Am an Actor". After recording the show, he began to prepare for the re-shooting of "Tianshan Enqiulu".

In order to better grasp the characters, he re-read the original martial arts novel, read through the script again, looked back at his previous bad acting clips, and started to straighten out the logic of the characters again.

Lu Ming didn't believe his own judgment, so he specially invited Sun Sifan, who was on a short vacation, to the company, and the two of them read the script in the company office.

"What do you think is the main characteristic of Duan Hongxue?" Sun Sifan asked.

"I think it's tenacity. He was abandoned by his parents when he was born. The head of the Red Gang accepted him as an apprentice, but he was not welcomed by his brothers in the Red Gang. He didn't care. He just kept practicing by himself. Martial arts. When he finally got his unique secret book and became a new knight in the rivers and lakes, he helped everyone he could and was praised by others. But when he was framed, no one except Wen Qingqing who admired him Someone stood up and said something nice for him. Under such a situation, he didn't complain, and worked hard to clear his grievances." Lu Ming was still a little excited when he mentioned Duan Hongxue, the heroine of "Tianshan Enqiulu".

"Tianshan Enqiulu" is a TV series adapted from a male-frequency big IP novel. There are many book fans. Its name is not a common style of painting among male-frequent Internet writers nowadays, but he will fight his way out and stand out from the crowd of online writers. It's because the male protagonist Duan Hongxue's character is good enough and miserable enough. A good person is so miserable that people can't help but want to watch it, scolding while watching, scolding those big and small villains for not being human.

"Then have you ever wondered why Duan Hongxue always repays grievances with kindness? In fact, this is different from other male-frequency online articles. Su Shuang's promotional articles are popular now, and it is rare to see such a holy father who repays grievances with kindness." Sun Sifan It brought up the most difficult point of Duan Hongxue's character.

Lu Ming has already thought about this, he wrote the word "benevolence" on the script, and said: "Actually, many readers of online novels don't like the holy father-type male protagonist, just because reading the text like that is very aggrieved, and the male protagonist always forgives me." Some terribly bad mentally retarded villains make people speechless."

"But this novel is different. Duan Hongxue has the word 'benevolence' in him. He doesn't care about some villains because he has a higher realm and he has his own consistent principles. This principle is He emphasizes benevolence and righteousness. And because he has the characteristics of 'benevolence', in the end he gets help from others and dominates the world. The logic of his character form is coherent, so it will not make people disgusted."

Lu Ming's re-shooting scenes are mainly about Su Shuang's part where the male lead goes through various setbacks and starts to slap Su Shuang in the face. Live, and convey the subtext of the characters through performances, so that the audience can empathize and really get into the play.

There are no powerful new dramas released in the same period. As soon as "Tianshan Enqiulu" was broadcast, it received a lot of attention. After all, there are still fans of books and wormwood.

At the beginning, Duan Hongxue played by Lu Ming was still a small character who was bullied by his seniors in the Red Gang.

It's only 20 minutes into the broadcast, and there's a lot of scolding on the Internet. The audience doesn't care how well your magazine cover is shot or how high the sales are. They will know that they turn on the TV, watch a TV series, and are irritated by the embarrassing acting again.

[Carrot is not mushy]: Is this also worthy of being called an actor?This bunch of traffic really ruined one IP after another, let me go, Hongxue, this is my life as a paper person, how did I become such a ghost, it pissed me off, pissed me off! !

[Very Happy 101]: I turned on the TV and watched it for 5 minutes, but I couldn’t stand it anymore. It was obviously playing the role of the little junior who was being bullied. There was no fluctuation on Lu Ming’s face. It seemed that he didn’t feel bullied at all. The Hengdian ensemble performances are really speechless.

[Five Cups of Milk Tea]: Can fans stop criticizing?Anyone with long eyes can see that the acting skills are hot.

Just when everyone thought that Lu Ming had returned to his original level, and when it came to the official film and television dramas, his acting skills were revealed, and the situation turned for the better.

"Tianshan Enchance Record" uses flashbacks. The first part of the first episode is a fragment of Duan Hongxue's early life experience after Duan Hongxue has become quite famous in the Jianghu.Then the camera turns back to the revenge story of Duan Hongxue, who has become a minor celebrity in the world. This is the part of Lu Ming's later reshoots.

It is difficult to play a 22-year-old chivalrous man with righteousness in his heart who has experienced many betrayals and restarted. Lu Ming grasped the characteristics of the characters, and conveyed the inner entanglements of the characters and the inner monologues that were not spoken in the lines with his eyes and movements.Even his vocal lines have taken a quantum leap.

It's just that the later scenes didn't last 30 minutes, and it went back to the beginning of filming. And now, until the 15th episode, it was basically the scenes filmed before Lu Ming's accident.

That night, the title of a popular post on Douban was "Lu Ming hit his head and got out of his mind, didn't he?"

Click into the post, the most liked reply:

[Zhizhao]: I'm really tired, I finally saw the second half of the first episode enter the scene, the scene he filmed before he broke his head came out again, and I tm acted again.

[serious Bear]: I tried again and again on the edge of acting, it was too difficult for me.This is really speechless.

[Ruan Ruan]: Maybe it was because of the surgery in the hospital that I felt that life is not easy, life should be cherished, and I started to be ambitious. A classmate of mine in high school also had a car accident and was hospitalized. He came back to study hard and was admitted to Fudan University.

The author has something to say: I also want to quickly write about the part about acting in a movie directed by a famous director, going to NYU to study directing, and returning to domestic entertainment with the director's works. It's so cool.
