I'm not a drama freak, I can really see through the script

Chapter 360, Gao Xinxin: Remove my name as the director of "New Three Kingdoms"
"Teacher Tang, can you really bear to let the culture of the Three Kingdoms be insulted?"

"Although I am not very educated, there is one principle I understand: good and bad are difficult to determine or define by one person's will. What is honey to me may be poison to another."

"Stop calling me with insults against art."

Tang Guoqiang's words were already quite harsh.

Please don't insult my intelligence with such nonsensical words.

My little scheme.

Everyone knows that.

Faced with such blunt words, Qin Zhengang was speechless. As a national first-class actor with a high status in the arts, even Qin Zhengang dared not say anything harsh.

We can only approach it with a tone of discussion.

And it was at this moment that the blatant rejection occurred.

To no avail.

The actors who played Liu Bei and his group all shared the same attitude: none of them would help with this.

what happened?
Are we just going to let our position be taken away?

Qin Zhengang was somewhat anxious. Although the new Three Kingdoms was led by his predecessor, as long as he could maintain his position, everything would still be possible. However, now that these veteran actors were not giving him face, he felt like a skilled cook without rice to cook.

Why are they unwilling to use underhanded tactics?
This is the simplest way.
Meanwhile, Sun Yanjun and Tang Guoqiang, who were watching television at home in Beiping, continued watching the film.
"Look, this young actor is really handsome."

"Hmm, this Kongming is really handsome, just like you back then. Just seeing him on screen was enough to charm a whole bunch of girls. I was so envious of you back then." Sun Yanjun smiled slightly at this moment: "However, time hasn't spared you either."

Both of them are elderly, well past their sixties.
I've seen through many things.

Fame and fortune
That's one aspect; similarly, there's another thing.

They are actors, they are artists, artists with their own pride and perseverance.

If one suppresses young people for the sake of their own desires and status...

They would never do something so shameful.

That way.

Who will make excellent works to show them in the future?
"Businessmen and officials have never thought about this. Many times, they think of us as actors who only know how to make movies. Maybe we are good at this, but there is a truth to it. Those veteran artists have their own persistence and feelings. They have their own kind of strength."

Huang Xiaoming knew that this was something he didn't have, and at the same time, only those veteran artists could have this feeling and bring out the "bones" of the character.
Therefore, Huang Xiaoming knew that they would make choices that aligned with the artist's image.

Because of respect, there will be no insults. This is something he cannot do, and it is also the kind of integrity he admires and aspires to.

"Now that you say that, no one can stop Li Xuan."

At this moment, Wang Haiyang murmured.

Perhaps Wang Lei's decision to remain neutral this time is because Huang Xiaoming is involved? It's hard to say. Based on Wang Haiyang's past understanding of Wang Lei, it's highly unlikely that he would stop his actions against Li Xuan because of Huang Xiaoming.

Moreover, the Beijing entertainment circle also joined in this time. It can be said that from these two aspects, they were united and working together. However, in the later stages, the Beijing entertainment circle also stopped, allowing the data and public opinion of "New Three Kingdoms" to rise.
One possibility is that it might affect the public opinion surrounding "Nanjing! Nanjing!" and "Nanjing Photo Studio".
No one could stop him except Wang Lei, who remained calm and composed.

"It hasn't stopped yet. As the director, Li Xuan shouldn't be too happy too soon."

The scene of entrusting the young emperor to his father at Baidi City marks another major climax in the story.

Liu Bei entrusted his son to Han Ping on his deathbed, and he had some regrets. But Han Ping felt that if he were given another choice, he might still choose to act impulsively for Guan Yu.

Because of brotherhood, he gave up his grand ambition to rule the world.

Personal emotions can influence the fate of a nation.

Although the scope of his work is smaller, it makes him appear more human and relatable.

"Humans are not always able to walk the right path. Sometimes, even if we know we are wrong and that our actions will ultimately lead to failure, our hearts will still lead us down that path."

Even losers have their own charm.

At least at this point, Liu Bei's departure was dignified; in fact, Han Ping felt it was more dignified than the old version of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms."

"This is the best Three Kingdoms story I've ever seen, and the best Liu Bei I've ever seen."

At this point, even Xu Xiang, who had always had some reservations about "New Three Kingdoms" and even some disdain for it, has now become a complete fan of "New Three Kingdoms".

Originally, it was thought that the tone of "New Three Kingdoms" raised the lower limit but sacrificed artistry. But unexpectedly, Li Xuan's move actually allowed the work to reach the upper limit while maintaining the lower limit.

In terms of character development, it demonstrates strength.

"Of course, he is also the best Zhuge Liang I have ever seen, comparable to Tang and Guo. They are definitely unique in their own way."

As for acting, Xu Xiang really admires Li Xuan.

That kind of acting, that kind of rhythm-setting, directly gives the character a soul.

It can be said that Liu Bei, under his leadership, had the potential to win awards.

In fact, Li Xuan himself could play the role of Kongming.

"But I think his greatest strength lies in his overall control. As a director, his ability to fully unleash the potential of the characters, the crew, and the scheduling is what makes him truly outstanding."

At this moment, Wang Fengsheng also pondered.

I admire him; after watching it, he had many thoughts.

The scene of Zhuge Liang entrusting his son to Zhuge Liang at Baidi City is a complete expression of 'true feelings'. It's about Liu Bei entrusting his son to Zhuge Liang, who is now old and gray, taking on the responsibility on his deathbed.

There are no scenes of 'axemen' from the old Three Kingdoms series, only a group of idealists, and a tragic song of burning their ideals in the end.

There's no need to watch any further; the limits of "New Three Kingdoms" have already been reached here.

One that can definitely compete for the top prize in two years.

Now they are watching Wei Ming.
Wei Ming could sense that Han Ping's regard for Li Xuan had increased even further.
Maybe, just maybe, I can prove myself again and actually get a lot of investment and resources to shoot a 'commercial' movie.

Not scraps, but the real stage where you can go to the center stage and dance with those great directors?
Although Wei Ming knew that Li Xuan would eventually succeed.

But sooner or later.

It makes a difference whether it's later or earlier.
At that moment, Li Xuan was watching TV with two girls.

By this point, "The New Three Kingdoms" was nearing its end. Although there were still some episodes left, the Three Kingdoms period was essentially over when Zhuge Liang entrusted his son to Zhuge Liang at Baidi City and was about to die. Zhuge Liang's death was then a postscript. The heroes died with their ideals fulfilled, reaching the end of their ideals, concluding their lives.

Joy, exhilaration, peak performance, sorrow, and exit – these were the elements that defined their unregretful lives.

Actually, Li Xuan sometimes feels conflicted.
This conflicting feeling.

It was just an impulse.

Occasionally, when making a film, I set aside considerations of profit and purely want to make a good film and act well, passionately conveying the ideas of the work.
Although making a good film can indeed bring a lot of benefits.

But those tangible profits are not as satisfying as the spiritual gains and climaxes.

It was a truly unparalleled feeling of exhilaration.

"I think it's such a pity that Kongming died. He followed a lord like Liu Bei, and he had already given up everything, but in the end, all his efforts were in vain. Because of Liu Bei's so-called 'passion,' he burned all the hard work the team had put in for many years to nothing." Gao Yuanyuan expressed great regret at this moment. Her biggest feeling about this ending was the regret that existed here. The regret that everyone's efforts were in vain turned into the sentence: "Oh, heavens, why have you treated me so badly?"

"To die in one's ideals is actually a kind of happiness. Burning with passion, running on the road, perhaps in the end all he gets is nothingness, but if given another chance, he will definitely make the same choice again," Liu Yifei said, expressing her opinion.

The "result" that Gao Yuanyuan cares about is different.

Liu Yifei could sense the burning happiness behind the failure.
Gao Yuanyuan didn't say anything.
He was just saying it silently in his heart.

Liu Yifei, as expected, we still can't get along, from the very beginning, to now, and into the future.

At this moment, Gao Yuanyuan said somewhat indignantly.

"Is it 'happiness' for Li Xuan to make wedding dresses for others?"

This is the current state of public opinion. The fact that the Beijing elite circle has stopped doing bad things doesn't mean they've stopped; rather, it means they're using a smarter and more shrewd way to change public opinion.
"Congratulations to Gao Xinxin, the director of our new Three Kingdoms."

"Director Gao is invincible!"

"The transition from old to new, from ratings to artistic expression, is a reinterpretation of the respect for the past."

These waves of public opinion replaced the previous 'slander' against Li Xuan, and instead attributed the credit to Gao Xinxin.
All the credit was given to Gao Xinxin.
If the actors performed well, it's the director's credit; if the director directed well, that's also the director's credit. In short, all the credit goes to Gao Xinxin.
When all the credit is attributed to Gao Xinxin, all the positive and negative public opinion becomes irrelevant.

As long as they steal the credit.

everything will get better.

At this moment, Wang Shuo and his team were in the coffee shop, listening to their subordinates' report.

"That's enough. Let Li Xuan experience the cruelty of the world's truth over such a small matter. It's good to have talent and ability, but what use is it if that talent and ability aren't put into the right path?"

In Wang Su's view, Li Xuan is a perfect example of someone who has used his talent for the wrong purposes.
This feeling of going down the wrong path
Even after leaving the established circle, they still want to create their own.
These are undoubtedly acts that touch a raw nerve. As an actor, or even a director, taking these steps step by step, what used to be considered 'provoking authority' is now truly 'touching upon vested interests'. When core interests are touched, the counterattack will follow swiftly.
This time, Wang Suo's most vicious counterattack was precisely this.

The credit that belonged to Li Xuan was given to Gao Xinxin as a stepping stone.

Unavoidable. Grafted in
Wang Suo is very confident, if that's the point.
Absolutely.

When it comes to the weapon of public opinion, the best thing and the most reasonable thing is to turn it into one's own. It can strike at the enemy and help one's own people at the same time.

Plunder, looting?
Perhaps this will be criticized.

But this world has always been this kind of game.

At this moment, Wang Suo spoke.

"Send Gao Xinxin a congratulatory message. Let him be the biggest and only winner in this 'New Three Kingdoms' game!"

Congratulations!

"Um"

Hearing Liu Hewei's congratulations, Gao Xinxin's eyes became somewhat indifferent.
It can be said that Liu Hewei also gained a lot this time, but he was very unhappy.

Liu Hewei secretly watched his 'partner'.

This time, as the director and chief planner, I can say that, in a sense, I am the one who has gained the most.
Liu Hewei was very unhappy at this point.
Perhaps they felt that the public's adoration for Gao Xinxin, especially the artistic upgrade in the latter half, was all thanks to Li Xuan.

Doesn't he know that?

knew.

But his silence speaks volumes.
"You know I'm powerless to change anything."

After a moment of silence, Gao Xinxin said, "I'm also caught in the vortex of public opinion in the Beijing circle. They can do whatever they want."

I know you're feeling really bad too.

For those working in the arts, glory is something they desire. This is indeed true and a very real truth. Everyone in this profession fears this situation and wants to gain honor.

Are people like Zhang Yimou afraid of the Beijing elite circle?

In fact, they themselves are the leaders and controllers of content within the Beijing entertainment circle, because the honors they have received and the honors they have earned support their status and their fearlessness.

It can be said that now, Li Xuan has boosted public opinion on "New Three Kingdoms" and benefited himself. Apart from feeling like he was forced into this situation, this matter is entirely beneficial to Gao Xinxin and only harmful.

This harm is probably the feeling of being trapped and humiliated in one's mind.

But compared to the honors received, this effort is insignificant, isn't it?

originally.

That's what Gao Xinxin wanted to tell herself.

After a moment of silence, he asked Liu Hewei to make a phone call for him.

"Hello, please connect me. Yes, please register me; I'd like to change some information."

"I want to change the director's name for 'New Three Kingdoms,' remove one person's name, um. It'll be used when we submit it for awards."

Yes, that's right.

Under Liu Hewei's incredulous gaze.

Gao Xinxin removed one of her names.

I removed my name.
