Entertainment: Top players who started out as trainees

Chapter 606: Being a closed disciple is not that easy.

Wu Jing flicked off the melon seed shells on his body, looked around, leaned towards Ning Luo, and lowered his voice: "Have you not studied the Golden Rooster Awards at the end of the month?"

"No." Ning Luo shrugged: "I don't even want to go."

Hu Jun at the side said, "You really don't want to win the award?"

"I'm too lazy to bother with those old guys." Ning Luo curled his lips.

"If I have the time, I might as well go to Yiwu for wholesale. The Oscar statuettes there are sold by the frame~"

Wu Jing and Hu Jun were both confused and amused for a moment.

The honor that all filmmakers dream of has become a piece of groceries worth ten yuan per two kilograms for him.

This young man...

In fact, Ning Luo really thought so.

Anyway, he has now successfully opened up channels with several film and television giants such as Fiber Optic, Berna, and Huace, and behind him stand the solid New Li Media and Tencent.

Whether he wins the award or not, will it prevent him from taking on big productions and making big money?
Can't delay a bit~
Let’s leave lofty dreams like “People’s Artist” to Sister Mi.

What's more, he has already planned to find a project on his own and produce it together with Frog Chirp Frog and Xinli Media.

Mainly the latter.

Frog Jiji Frog was just a contributor and was responsible for paying the money to help him share the risk.

Of course, we make money together.

He can be regarded as helping Lady Long to develop new business sectors~
Not a big deal.

Invest in a small target first to test the waters, so you won’t feel bad if you lose.

With Xinli's production team and rich experience in production and distribution, and with the help of Tencent and the strong distribution channels of several other film and television giants, there is still a lot of potential.

At the beginning, the only people willing to play with him were probably Xinli and Tencent.

But it's enough.

As for the investors behind him, he will accept those who are willing to play with him, and he doesn't mind those who choose to wait and see. They are all still good friends.

Business.

I can understand~
After everyone arrived, a simple opening ceremony was held. After cutting the cake, everyone went their separate ways and began to put on makeup and style their looks.

Ning Luo sat obediently in the chair, letting the makeup artist of the crew fiddle with her while she flipped through the script in her hand.

The shooting period lasted a total of 12 days.

Most of the content was filmed together with "Changjin Lake" as early as the beginning of the year. Only some war scenes in the snow and ice are left, which are also the most torturous scenes.

The plot of "Watergate Bridge" is connected to the previous part. After the Battle of Changjin Lake, the U.S. Army began to retreat to the east coast of the peninsula, and the Watergate Bridge was their only passage.

The Seventh Infiltration Company, where Wu Wanli, played by Ning Luo, is located, received a more difficult task, which is to launch a surprise attack with the soldiers of the Ninth Company and blow up the Watergate Bridge to prevent the retreat of the First Marine Division of the U.S. Army.

In the end, of the 157 people in the Seventh Company, only Wu Wanli survived.

Compared with the previous part, "Changjin Lake", "Watergate Bridge" shifts the focus from the large-scale battle to the Seventh Interspersed Company and a bridge, and from the interests of family and country to personal choices.

Start from a small perspective in order to generate greater resonance.

Wu Wanli, played by Ning Luo, is still the final destination of all the literary dramas in the film.

After experiencing the tempering of blood and fire in "Changjin Lake", Wu Wanli has transformed from the rebellious and willful "child king" into a relatively qualified soldier in "Watergate Bridge".

When Yu Congrong asked him how many enemies he had killed, he replied, "It doesn't matter. I want you all to return home safely."

To be honest, compared to the previous part, Wu Wanli in "Watergate Bridge" has a much weaker character arc and a much lower presence.

As for the difficulty of the performance, it can be said to be lowered and improved at the same time.

The reason for the decrease is that after the transformation in "Changjin Lake", Wu Wanli was already a relatively mature soldier at the beginning of "Watergate Bridge".

By the end, he had only become a little more mature.

The personality transformation is not obvious or strong.

If you want to be lazy, just follow a template.

But if you really want to focus on the details, the difficulty of performing may be even more difficult than the several drastic transformations in "Changjin Lake".

In "Watergate Bridge", Wu Wanli faced the sacrifice of more comrades in a short period of time.

This also forced him to grow rapidly in a very short period of time, and to be reborn almost destructively.

During this period, because he had understood the responsibility, mission, and the continuation of the spirit of the Seventh Company, he was unable to fully release and vent his emotions when facing the sacrifice of his comrades on the battlefield. The gradually surging sense of forbearance, as well as the repression and pain that was violently and quickly matured, could only be expressed through his eyes, micro-expressions, and some subtle movements.

The "degree" is difficult to control.

If you try too hard, the audience will feel bitter and resentful.

Using too little effort is no different from being lazy.

Ning Luo is confident that he can do it, but he is not sure if he can do it well.

For the scenes that had been shot at the beginning of the year, he felt that he had done a good job in the emotional transitions and expressions at key points.

For the remaining ones, he has also completed the emotional and physical character building.

Anyway, just rush and it's done~
It's not his character to tank.

Moreover, the old lady had very strict requirements on his acting skills.

Very strict!

For every play he starred in, the old lady would take time out to watch the film with him, judge him frame by frame, and then sentence him.

The way she did it was to use her sharp tongue to poke his heart and make it bleed.

It is not easy to be a closed disciple.

But the good thing is that every time he shoots a movie, he can draw sufficient nutrients from it, which enables him to grow rapidly.

The price is...

pain!
It hurts so much! !

In the next few days, Ning Luo devoted himself to the filming of the crew, and his daily work was to crawl in the snow and ice.

As miserable as a dog.

The kind that has lost its home.

He swore that this was definitely his last film, shot in the three northeastern provinces in winter!
Hmm...

Unless the box office of that movie can also exceed 60 billion.

50 billion is fine.

40 billion is also acceptable.

30 billion is barely enough.

I can just grit my teeth and bear the 20 billion.

It can’t be any lower.

This is the last stubbornness of the "Mr. Billion-Dollar Box Office".

After finishing a day's work, Ning Luo returned to the hotel covered in dust and took a hot shower. Looking at the pendulum that had returned to its original size, he couldn't help but smile with relief.

Back in the living room, Ning Luo sat down on the sofa, picked up the chopsticks, and joined the crowd rushing for food.

Today's midnight snack is a takeaway version of stewed pork in an iron pot, filled with the aroma of gutter oil.

It smells so good~
Taking out his mobile phone, Ning Luo eats melons while eating as usual.

During the time he joined the crew, domestic entertainment became lively again.

The most important news should be the official announcement of Wang Lihong’s divorce at noon today.

It feels like in the past two years, every year at the end of the year, there has been a wave of divorces and breakups in the domestic entertainment industry.

Last year it was Zhou Xun, Wang Lexin, Gao Ziqi and others, this year it was Big S, Li Xiang, Wang Lihong and others.

It's like gathering strength in advance for next spring when everything comes back to life.

But this year there is one person who seems to have entered spring early.

That is Ms. Zhang Yuqi, who was just exposed a few days ago and was suspected of having a new relationship.

Looking through this person's emotional history, it seems easy to understand.

This "dare to love and hate heroine", only 34 years old, 2 marriages and 2 divorces plus N scandalous romances, lives a free and easy life~
Interestingly, her first husband was 56 years old, her second husband was 48 years old, her third boyfriend was 26 years old, and now, the rumored boyfriend who just appeared is 24 years old.

This shows what?
Tsk~
　I think I drank too much coffee, I'm not that sleepy.
