The Director's Road of Airflow

Chapter 45 Hurt Zhongyong

Everyone has heard the story of "Injury Zhongyong". Lu Ming learned this classical Chinese prose in Chinese class in junior high school.At that time, he did not think that he would be closely tied to this word in the future, although he did not lose sight of everyone.

The first time the term "injury Zhongyong" was applied to Lu Ming was when he gave up playing the piano at the age of 12. A local paper media with a large circulation in Chongqing published an article "The Road to the Piano Boy" in a life section. Where? ——Those Children Who Didn't Become Lang Lang and Li Yundi".

In this report, Lu Ming, as a piano boy who did not persevere on the road of playing the piano, was regarded as a typical case. Firstly, he listed the awards of the piano competitions he participated in before the age of 10, and then highlighted that he had given up now. Playing the piano is used to persuade parents not to send their children on the road of music after seeing one or two piano prodigies. There are still very few geniuses, and most people are not so talented.

The meaning between the lines is that Lu Ming is just because he was well-behaved and sensible when he was a child, and his parents watched him closely. He practiced more than ordinary children. He played a time lag and looked very good. In fact, he was not very talented. When he was 13 years old, he played the piano Entering the critical period of professional training, it is time to stop cooking when the results are about to be achieved.

After Lu Ming became famous, the video recordings of participating in the piano competition when he was a child were dug up by fans from the corners of Tudou and Youku, and the image quality was readjusted and uploaded to station B. Everyone raised their children together in the barrage cloud.Lu Ming gave up on the path of being a professional pianist, but after his debut, his past efforts and honors still count, and he still attracts the attention of strangers and wins their love.

Once again frequently regarded as the contemporary Fang Zhongyong, it is Lu Ming's 19-year-old rebellious delayed puberty.Some marketing accounts attributed his career stagnation to insufficient talent, lack of potential to become a superstar, and lost himself in the eyes of the public.

Lu Ming finally proved his acting skills through film and television drama works, resolutely gave up his existing achievements, went to the United States to study abroad, and tried completely different film production roles. In the writings of some public accounts, talking about him still hurts Zhong Yong s story.In their view, Lu Ming has reached the ceiling of his acting skills. He can only play one role well, and retreat bravely to preserve a good reputation. If he continues to act, his shortcomings will be exposed.It's really sad that the top class in the past, but now studying abroad in obscurity, has been forgotten by the mainland entertainment circle.

Even if Lu Ming now proves his ability as a director with the box office record of a sci-fi film, the words "Shang Zhongyong" still cannot leave his life.

When Lu Ming saw a screenwriter in the industry commenting on Weibo that he "was a bit aura at first, he succumbed to the market, and can only make genre films in the future", he was very confused. He quickly scanned the long speech of the screenwriter, and as expected, Lu Ming Ming saw the words "Shang Zhongyong".

Lu Ming is really going crazy, is there anyone who can tell these people: Wang Anshi wrote "Injury Zhongyong" to emphasize the importance of hard work and learning for success, there is really no need to keep copying the same allusions mechanically?

Lu Ming calmed down and thought about it for a while. He is often regarded as the fall of a genius boy, and it can be regarded as a kind of affirmation of his achievements before making a choice every time.It's just that he usually didn't go down the path that everyone expected, but turned a corner, or simply changed the path, which in some people's eyes is a sad departure.

But for Lu Ming himself, this is just a new adventure in his life.

Lu Ming was invited by Nortel to give a lecture at his alma mater.

Under normal circumstances, there would not be too many students who voluntarily sign up for the lectures, and the auditorium always has enough seats, but this time when Lu Ming was coming, the number of applicants far exceeded the number of seats, and tickets were distributed by lottery in the end.Some tickets were also sold at high prices on Xianyu, and people from outside the school sneaked in.

Returning to his alma mater as a young director, Lu Ming felt quite strange. When he was 18 years old and sat in the auditorium on the first day of school and listened to the speech of the school leader, the most he thought about was that he would become a powerful actor one day. , Standing on the stage as a well-known alumnus, he never thought that he would become a director, which completely exceeded his expectations.

In this lecture, Lu Ming mainly introduced the problems and solutions encountered during the filming of "Mother Star", and talked about his own views on the distinction between commercial films and literary films.

At the end of the lecture, a female classmate asked Lu Ming a question: "Director Lu, why can you just give up your achievements as an actor and join the almost unfamiliar directing industry?"

Lu Ming gave the answer without hesitation: "Don't be afraid to return to zero, move forward without fear."

This sounds like an empty slogan, but it is the best footnote of Lu Ming's life trajectory.

The entire recording video of the lecture was uploaded to Station B by the official account that night, and the bullet screen quickly blocked people's faces densely.

[That's right, this will be my motto from now on. Brother Lu Ming is really good. After becoming wormwood, I feel that I am also active and healthy. 】

[This is the face-slapping of those strange faces who say something every day to hurt Zhongyong.Don't people know better than you what his choice means?Haven't Lu Ming's past life stories taught you not to criticize his decisions?Mr. Lu is what he does, what he achieves, he is just an ordinary genius.Some mediocre people judge others by themselves, and even put on a posture of looking down, really speechless. 】

[As a choreographer, I always watch the lectures of various big names, and I like Lu Ming the most lol, can Director Lu show up more often, I really want to see you, you speak clearly, and you are handsome, pleasing to the eye, and improve my brain speed of operation. 】

Lu Ming has indeed increased his public exposure during this period. He plans to start filming a new movie at the end of November, and there is still more than a month left. Lu Ming plans to use it to get in touch with the outside world more, get in touch with the outside world, and find the next movie. a feeling of.

The film that Lu Ming plans to make next is called "Son of the Sea". It is a script he created when he was a second graduate student at NYU. This can be said to be the white moonlight in his heart.Lu Ming originally planned to make this script into a graduation work, but after thinking about it, he felt that his ability at the time was not enough to handle the subject. After a day of trial shooting, he shelved the plan and changed it to a parent-child story script.

After the success of "Mother Star", many producers handed Lu Ming the notebooks of various commercial films, thinking that Lu Ming could make good science fiction films, and other commercial films would definitely be fine.

Lu Ming is really familiar with these themes, and it is not difficult to deal with these scripts to make a quick profit, but no matter how Guo Da, vice president of Haoyue Film and Television, persuades him, Lu Ming just refuses to continue filming these scripts.

Guo Da anxiously circled the meeting room, like a tiger trapped in a cage would behave rigidly, "Lu Ming, why don't you understand the stakes? Unless the director gets the top three awards in Europe." , otherwise, if you want to gain a firm position in the industry, you must rely on the box office. All the films you make are well-received and sold well, and the investment will naturally come to you in a steady stream. Then you can make whatever you want. Now it is the audience's expectation of you Highest, when you have the most box office appeal, you don’t make more genre films while the iron is hot, what are you thinking?”

"Obviously something different from you." Lu Ming explained to Guo Da too many times, but he couldn't make any sense, so he simply ignored him.

Guo Da tried his best but couldn't change Lu Ming's mind. In the end, Lu Ming backed down and agreed to participate in a variety show to make up for the possible loss of commercial value caused by his determination to make a literary film.

The variety show that Guo Da chose for Lu Ming was a slow-life variety show. Three veteran actors with some status in the industry opened a small restaurant in Kunming, Yunnan. Each episode had 3 to 5 artists participating in the recording. The show was mainly composed of artists. First go to a natural scenic spot or material cultural site in Yunnan, introduce the local characteristics and development status, and publicize it for the local government, hoping to stimulate the tourism development of these prefecture-level cities through the appeal of celebrities.In the evening, I went to eat and chat in the small restaurant opened by the seniors in the entertainment industry, and the day passed.

What Lu Ming is going to is the second episode of this show. This show has just started this year, and it hasn't recorded a single episode yet.

Lu Ming is actually not very optimistic about the development of this show. He said it was a slow variety show, and he had a busy schedule during the day. He said it was a travel show. nondescript.

However, this is a variety show project developed by Haoyue Film and Television. Guo Da is the general manager of the project. The filming is about to start, and Lu Ming is too embarrassed to pour cold water on him, so he agrees and agrees to record a program to increase the selling point of the variety show.
