The bard joins the entertainment industry

After spending Mother's Day with Liu Xiaoli, Chen Shuo and Liu Yifei reported to school the next day.

Speaking of which, this semester, the two of them didn't even attend the opening ceremony. First they were rushing to promote Chen Shuo's album, then they went to film a movie, and they haven't returned to school until now.

Seeing the arrival of the two people, Wang Jinsong couldn't help but feel a little angry. He drank tea without even glancing at the two of them, and said lightly: "You still know how to come back?"

"Oh, calm down, teacher, we have brought you something good." Chen Shuo shamelessly put a bag of things in front of Wang Jinsong with a smile on his face and said, "Look, chrysanthemum tea is good for dispelling fire." of."

After hearing this, Wang Jinsong screwed on the lid of the tea cup, sat down on the table, and said angrily: "I think you are here to make a fuss!"

"It's okay, this tea really dispels fire." Chen Shuo said again, "Teacher, last semester you said that we were the light of Beijing Film University and the hope of reviving Beijing Film University. This year you don't accept it. Already?"

"Uh, cough..." Wang Jinsong's tone was stagnant, he coughed twice, then calmed down and said, "Tell me, how long can you two stay in school?"

"Nothing will happen this semester." Chen Shuo immediately promised: "The most I can do is follow Director Zhang to attend the Cannes Film Festival.

Then Yifei will record songs and shoot music videos, but these can be done after school. "

Wang Jinsong nodded, took a sip from the tea cup, and said, "I can't care about you so much anymore. I will start to get busy in the second half of the year, and then the responsibilities of the class teacher will be handed over to Chunzi."

Chen Shuo and the two couldn't help but be surprised when they heard this: "Teacher is no longer the head teacher?"

Wang Jinsong explained: "It's not inappropriate, I'm still your class teacher. If anything happens, you can still come to me, but the daily affairs will be left to Chunzi."

Although he is not often in school, Chen Shuo still knows that Wang Jinsong, as the deputy dean of the School of Performance, has a lot of things to do.

At the same time, he also served as the director and instructor of several large-scale performances in the school. He will be busy again in the second half of the year, and there is really no time.

In the second half of the year, they will be in their junior year, and it’s time to go out and find roles and experience the life of the crew.

By then there won’t be many classes in school.

Speaking of which, there is a paradox in film and television school. In the first two years of school, teachers hope that you can study in school honestly and lay a good foundation.

By the time you reach your junior year, I wish you could immediately find a good opportunity to play a leading role.

However, there were basically no opportunities to contact the crew when studying in school. When I was in my junior year, I suddenly looked for it. Where could I find it?

Some seniors who graduate may not be able to find opportunities to play supporting roles.

After chatting for a while, Chen Shuo and Chen Shuo left and returned to the classroom.

Seeing the two people coming back, even Zhu Yawen and others who were good friends in the past felt a sense of alienation.

As they are about to enter their junior year, they also begin to slowly come into contact with the cruelty of the outside world.

Knowing the gap between himself and Chen Shuo, he couldn't help but hesitate when facing the two of them.

Chen Shuo didn't feel anything about this, but after two days of getting along, he was back to his old self.

After a week of classes, Zhang Weiping called and told them to prepare to go to Cannes.

After receiving the news, Chen Shuo and the others packed up and went to the star screen to meet with Liu Xiaoli, Huang Ying and a stylist.

The main people going to Cannes this time are Zhang Yimou, Liu Dehua, Zhang Ziyi, Chen Shuo and Liu Yifei.

Needless to say, Zhang Yimou and Liu Dehua are the directors and male protagonists of this drama.

Although Liu Yifei took her final bow in the second half, there were still many flashback scenes at the end, plus she had a lot of scenes, so she was considered the number one heroine.

Although Chen Shuo is nominally the second male lead, he shot more scenes than the male lead Liu Dehua.

Although Zhang Ziyi does not have many roles, she is well-known internationally due to her appearances in world-renowned works such as "My Father and Mother", "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Hero".

Today, Andy Lau meets Jiang Zhiqiang in Hong Kong, while Zhang Ziyi sets off from Japan and meets in Cannes.

After arriving at the Star Screen, in addition to Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping, they were also accompanied by production director Zhang Zhenyan, documentary director Gan Lu, senior reporter Zhang Weiguo of the "Didu Youth Daily" and others.

In addition to assistants and translators, there are more than ten people of all kinds, including Chen Shuo and five others, and it is a large team.

After meeting, Zhang Yimou looked at the two of them and asked with a smile: "How are you? Are you ready? What you will face next is the whole world!"

During this period, he has been working on the post-production stage of "House of Flying Daggers" in Australia and did not return until the past two days.

Chen Shuo and Liu Yifei looked at each other and said: "This, we can only say that we are doing our best. We have no experience in this kind of thing. We just hope that we will not embarrass the director or the people."

Zhang Weiping, who was watching everyone packing their things, turned around and smiled. "Don't worry, come here openly. If you are not afraid of embarrassment, then you won't be embarrassed."

Zhang Yimou nodded and said: "Wei Ping is right. But I also want to warn you.

During the interview, try not to talk too much about things that have nothing to do with you. Don't express opinions casually except for things other than yourself and your work.

After all, you are still young and newcomers. If you express some opinions too openly, it may have some unnecessary impact on your future development. "

"Don't worry, director, we can clearly see our own weight." Chen Shuo and Liu Yifei nodded seriously.

"For us, as long as we can participate in this film festival, it will be an improvement. Now that we can see the world, we will have many opportunities in the future."

"Okay, you are ambitious." Zhang Yimou patted Chen Shuo on the shoulder and asked: "Have you brought your dress? Or are you prepared for that? If not, there is no need to force it, just wear more formal clothes. "

"Bring it with you. After you said you wanted to attend the film festival, we asked someone to design a dress. Why don't you take a look and see if it suits you?"

"Okay." Zhang Yimou nodded.

Originally, when he said this, he hoped that the two of them would not behave inappropriately like Zhang Ziyi did.

Seeing that Chen Shuo was so successful, he was even more satisfied.

Chen Shuo didn't need to say anything, Huang Ying just said it and went downstairs with the stylist to bring up the box containing the two people's dresses.

After opening it, with the help of the two of them, Chen Shuo and Liu Yifei took the dress and made gestures on their bodies.

After seeing the results of the two dresses, Zhang Yimou couldn't help but his eyes lit up and said: "Your design style is quite novel. It has both Western fashion sense and Eastern classical charm, and it matches the temperament of the two of you very well. "

Although Zhang Yimou usually doesn't pay attention to what he wears, it is undeniable that his vision and aesthetics are definitely advanced.

It is no less impressive than some internationally renowned designers.

When Zhang Weiping, Chang Xiaoyang, Gan Lu and others met, they all praised them and felt that these two dresses were very suitable for them.

Chen Shuo laughed after hearing this and said: "Originally, we were still a little nervous and thought it was a bit unique, but since the director thinks it is good, then it must be no problem. When the time comes, we will wear this on the red carpet."

"There is absolutely no problem with these two dresses." Zhang Yimou affirmed: "Unfortunately, we did not participate in the competition this time and did not apply for any awards.

Otherwise, with the performance of both of you, it might not be impossible to achieve something. "

In 1999, Zhang Yimou participated in Cannes with "No One Less", but chairman Gilles Jacob thought the film had "political implications" and hoped that he could replace "No One Less" with "My Father and Mother" Participate in the evaluation.

This angered Zhang Yimou, who publicly announced that both films would withdraw from the Cannes Film Festival at the same time.

And submitted an open letter of "breakup" to Jacobs, saying that it had shaken the festival's purpose of cherishing art.

Now this time, he did not apply for any selection, but just planned to take this opportunity to hold a film festival here.

Chen Shuo shook his head when he heard this and said: "We don't think too much about this. Presenting the art in the director's mind is our greatest hope."

"Okay, that's well said." Zhang Yimou patted him and said, "Okay, put it away. Let's pack up and set off."

Huang Ying put away the two dresses, and after Zhang Yimou and others packed them up again, the group headed to the airport.

After running all the way, I first flew to Paris, then transferred to Nice and took a bus to Cannes. By the time I got there, it was already 5 o'clock in the morning on the 18th.

Just yesterday, "House of Flying Daggers" had its premiere at the Bazin Hall with the attention of more than 1,000 journalists and film producers from all over the world.

There will also be a movie screening this afternoon.

Of course, the real premiere for the audience will be tomorrow night, when there will be a red carpet and cocktail reception.

After arriving at the hotel, we met up with Jiang Zhiqiang, Liu Dehua, Zhang Ziyi and others who had arrived yesterday. Everyone greeted and chatted happily.

This time everyone's mentality is relatively relaxed. After all, if you don't participate in the selection, there will be a lot less pressure.

The outcome of this screening depends on how well Zhang Yimou's film is shot.

No matter how talented these people are, they are still not as powerful as Zhang Yimou. As long as there are no major flaws in his acting skills, he will be the one to shoulder all the problems.

Zhang Yimou saw that everyone was a little tired and said, "Everyone must be tired after running all the way. Let's take a rest and then we will start the interview."

Let's enjoy the style of Cannes for the second time in the evening and have a meal together. "

Then he said to Chen Shuo and the others: "This is your first time here, you can go around more and feel the artistic atmosphere here.

At this time of year, outstanding film workers from all over the world gather here.

If you walk more and see more, I think it will bring you some new insights. "

Chen Shuo nodded and said: "The customs and customs here are indeed different from those in Ukraine. It has a more youthful atmosphere."

"Be careful, don't be dazzled by the beauties from all over the world." Liu Dehua joked: "You know, foreign girls are very open and bold."

"It doesn't matter. I will take Sissi with me when the time comes. I think they will feel ashamed after seeing Sissi." Chen Shuo said, holding Liu Yifei's hand.

Maybe there really is a different kind of magic here that makes people feel a little more open.

Seeing this, Zhang Yimou, Liu Dehua and others couldn't help but shake their heads and burst into laughter.
