Huayu: The Best Actor starts with obtaining the role entry

Chapter 119 - Those Years and the Broadcast Plans for "Someday or One Day"!

"Come on, come on, Sisi, you don't have anything to do anyway, so why don't you take a look together!"

Shu Chang's eyes were full of anticipation.

She's going to enthusiastically promote her idol!
"I really can't do anything with you, so let's look at the best version of ourselves first!"

Liu Yifei nodded; there was nothing else to do anyway.

She was actually a little resentful.

Although I learned from Liu Xiaoli that Jing Tian and her team were also involved in this marketing campaign.

But no matter what, the drama "With You" has always been compared to other dramas.

It's a bit of a stretch to compare a TV series and a movie.

However, they are both youth dramas, and their release dates happen to be close together.

One is touted as the best youth drama of the last decade, while the other is labeled as a terrible film.

Liu Yifei really wanted to see just how good this youth drama, touted as the best in the last decade, really was.

So much so that everyone who talks about the best of us has to mention their own relationship announcement.

"Hehe, sure, sure! I was just thinking of watching it again. You'll definitely fall for my crush, Qianqian. But it's a bit of a shame. If his new drama is released, we can watch it first!"

Shu chuckled.

It's good that Liu Yifei agreed.

It's a bit of a pity that Bai Ye's new drama hasn't been released yet. If "Someday or One Day" were released, we could have dragged Liu Yifei to watch it first.

"You're so concerned?"

"No, that's my idol's drama, of course I have to watch it as soon as it airs!"

Shu Chang acted as if it were the most natural thing in the world, so of course we should care!

He's an idol, shouldn't fans care about their idol's work?
"Speaking of which, he should be quite popular by now, is he still filming TV dramas?!"

"Sissi, didn't you hear what Auntie said before? 'You Are the Apple of My Eye' is a movie!"

"Yes, this is it, but isn't this the one Liu Shishi starred in?! You mean..."

Liu Yifei suddenly realized what was happening.

If Liu Shishi is the female lead, then according to what Shu Chang said, Bai Ye is the male lead.

"That's right, Bai Ye is the male lead and Liu Shishi is the female lead, so that's why Auntie said Tangren stepped on you. I guess that's why. I think you're in pretty danger this time, Qianqian!"

After seeing Liu Yifei's expression of realization, Shu Chang immediately spoke up.

She felt that Liu Yifei was in real danger this time.

If this movie is better than the one directed by Liu Yifei, Tangren Media will probably use Liu Yifei as a scapegoat for marketing purposes for a while.

"It shouldn't be that bad."

Liu Yifei muttered to herself, looking at Shu Chang's eyes, she felt that the other party was making a mountain out of a molehill.

How is that dangerous?!

"Sissi, how could it not be dangerous when you meet my crush!?"

"."

So you're being a little too superstitious about Bai Ye?
Liu Yifei was wondering why Shu Chang would say that. So, it's because he's your idol that I'm in danger?!

Click to watch the TV series "With You".

She's going to watch this show today and see what's really going on!

Just like Shu Chang said, I probably won't be able to go out for a while.

The box office for "Love Announcement" is not expected to increase significantly afterward.

Therefore, the lead actors lost interest in the promotional tour.

They actually made money, since the film's investment wasn't large, but their reputation was damaged by this film.

Especially given the widespread criticism, Liu Yifei, despite knowing her own strength, still felt compelled to defend herself.

But I think I need to slow down a bit recently.

Liu Xiaoli also took action, pulling the others into the water together.

They've muddied the waters, and they've also been doing public relations.

Liu Yifei's reputation was somewhat preserved, although it was affected by the dating announcement, the impact was not significant.

Those were the days of film crews.

Lin Yufen called out "Cut!" and then instructed the props team to begin setting up.

Those years are coming to an end.

Basically, the film was completed after only one or two scenes were shot.

At first, Liu Shishi couldn't get into the zone, but later she gradually got used to Shen Jiayi.

The filming pace was already very fast back then.

"You guys take a break. Once the props are set up, we'll film the beach scenes and the final wedding scene. After that, filming will wrap up."

Lin Yufen unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and took two sips to moisten her throat.

The filming was almost finished, and Liu Shishi felt a little reluctant to part with it after hearing Lin Yufen say that filming was about to wrap up.

She knew very well that she was with Bai Ye now, but she didn't want any official status.

If they leave, nobody knows what will happen.

Although he had said he would give Bai Yelang some time.

But what if she settles down? Besides, she's gotten used to going to see Bai Ye every night after filming, and they've returned to the sweetness of the time before they broke up.

She was almost reluctant to part with it.

But eventually, filming will have to wrap up.

"We've finally wrapped up filming!"

Bai Ye was somewhat moved, but after he finished speaking, he felt a resentful gaze fixed on him.

"You really want to wrap up filming?"

Although Liu Shishi's tone was calm, anyone who wasn't a fool could see that her heart was far from calm.

Is Bai Ye already planning to wrap up filming?

She was still reluctant to leave, but Bai Ye felt it was time to wrap up filming!
"Of course I'm reluctant, but it would be better if the movie were released sooner, since you guys have been busy lately."

Bai Ye didn't say anything; there were other people around.

But Liu Shishi also knew what this meant.

Tangren Media has been actively marketing its films lately. If they finish filming the movie sooner and submit it for review and release sooner, they might be able to reap the benefits later.

"That's right, it might be better to release it now!"

Before Liu Shishi could say anything, Lin Yufen chimed in.

She felt that it would be better to release it earlier.

She has high hopes for the film's success.

But that's it.
"By the way, when are you coming up to see me?!"

Lin Yufen looked at Bai Ye and asked.

She starred in the drama "Someday or One Day".

However, Lin Yufen is unsure of the specific release date.

But if the two can be released together, it could boost the box office of "Someday or One Day" over the years.

"It was probably around the end of November. We had almost finished talking with Shanghai TV."

Let's just go straight to satellite.

If it weren't broadcast directly on satellite TV, but instead aired on a local station first, it could probably be broadcast even earlier.

But Bai Ye still chose to go directly to the satellite.

After all, there's a significant difference between broadcasting on satellite TV and not. Shanghai TV spent a considerable amount of money this time, basically over a million yuan per episode for the first round of broadcasting rights.

In just one round, they basically recouped their costs.

It's a bit of a pity that Hunan TV didn't choose to jointly purchase the rights.

Hunan TV's demands are either exclusive broadcasting rights or no purchase at all.

The price offered is the same as that of Shanghai TV, but the effect will definitely be better than that of Hunan TV.

But that's it.
There are always other factors to consider.

The publicity department said they hoped I would promote Shanghai more, and in return, they would offer me some preferential treatment.

Even a fool would know which option to choose.

By the end of November, everything was arranged, and the subsequent processing would most likely be completed by October.

If it's to be released, then it's probably going to be quite difficult!

Bai Ye also knew what Lin Yufen really meant when she asked when the drama "Want to See You" would air.

I want to have it released together.

"In that case, it would actually be best if those films were released in December."

Lin Yufen rubbed her chin, then realized she was having some difficulty.

"Director Lin, I think it would be better if you didn't think too much about it. After all, there will probably be a lot of movies released in December, and it's questionable whether we'll even get a chance to screen them."

After all, we're newcomers in the film industry, not big names who can get special treatment!

The movie screening schedule depends on the other movies showing at the same time.

If there are few movies showing at the same time, then it's possible to arrange something. But if there are many movies showing at the same time, it's highly unlikely that it will be possible to arrange something for you.

"Actually, we can still try to compress it. First, we need to pass the technical review and get the public screening license. This can take about 14 days at the fastest, but that's the ideal situation."

If it takes a longer time, it could even be more than a year.

The shortest duration is 14 days, the longest is 579 days, and the median is around 37 days.

Then comes the promotional schedule. It's impossible to release it directly, although it's not impossible. The shortest release date is the same day, the longest is 759 days, and the median is 163 days.

These are all approximate timeframes. Whether a movie can be released or not can actually be decided either a year later or within six months.

Of course, if you have connections, I can arrange it for you.

It really just depends on how many movies are showing during that period, and then whether that matters.

If you have connections, you can get special treatment.

Hearing Lin Yufen say this, Bai Ye suddenly felt a pang of nostalgia for Lu Zheng.

It seems that with Lu Zheng around, there's really no need to think about this.

"But you don't need to worry. President Cai is even more anxious than you are. Besides, don't you have connections in Shanghai? Why don't you ask him?"

Lin Yufen said, and then explained, "I actually suggest that you choose the time period when it is released at the same time as Someday or One Day, so that you can maximize your popularity."

of course
If I fail to see you, it will definitely drag down those years.

It depends on your priorities!

Lin Yufen analyzed the pros and cons for Bai Ye.

Then he stopped talking.

Liu Shishi, who was standing to the side, also looked at Bai Ye with some curiosity. She didn't know what choice Bai Ye would make.

There are pros and cons.

The key is to see your grades.

"Director Lin, let me think about it first."

"Okay! Let's get ready to film!"

The movie isn't finished filming yet, and if post-production can't keep up, then it makes no sense to schedule time now.

She was just giving Bai Ye a heads-up.

We'll be filming the remaining scenes from those years later.

This scene is a beach scene.

It was also a graduation trip after graduation.

The filming location was on a beach in Weihai, directly opposite the Bruce shipwreck.

Bai Ye and Liu Shishi sat side by side on the edge of the embankment, while the other friends were scattered in a fan shape.

"Bai Ye, let your legs hang down and sway naturally to show your youthful spirit. Liu Shishi, lean back with your hands supporting you, and let your skirt flutter in the wind to enhance your goddess elegance."

Everyone else should have their own unique characteristics; you should all improvise according to the personality of your characters!

The group sat on the stone bridge, looking ahead, while Lin Yufen watched them on the monitor.

At this moment, the youthful spirit is fully displayed in this one.

With "future plans" and "unrequited love" as the main themes, the story interweaves fantasies about university life with anxieties about separation.

As Lin Yufen watched Bai Ye steal a glance at Liu Shishi's profile, and Liu Shishi's gaze towards the horizon, this beautiful scene evoked a sense of emotion in her. This close-up shot conveyed unspoken feelings.

Youth is truly like a heavy rain; even if you catch a cold, you still long to be drenched in it again.

The camera slowly pans up from a close-up of the waves to a group portrait, capturing Liu Shishi's hair tousled by the sea breeze and her slightly reddened ear tips.

This scene itself isn't very difficult; as long as they can bring their characters to life.

"Lin Genxin, what's with that silly husky expression you're making?!"

While Lin Yufen was still marveling at the beauty of this scene.

Seeing Lin and Xin's sudden, silly grin, I couldn't hold it in any longer.

This guy burst out laughing again!
"Sorry, sorry, I couldn't help it, Director Lin, let me adjust!"

Lin took a deep breath, adjusted his mindset, and then, when filming started again, he refrained from thinking too much about it.

According to the plot, the main focus here is on Bai Ye and Liu Shishi.

Once the two were in the zone, the camera captured their most spirited moment.

After confirming that everything was okay, Lin Yufen called "Cut!" and said, "That's it. You guys go to the beach and shoot a few more scenes, and then this scene will be finished!"

After the beach scenes, the wedding scene will begin.

After that, filming was completely finished.

The rusty hull of the Weihai Bruce shipwreck blends with the distant horizon, and the twilight light gilds the silhouette of Bai Ye and Liu Shishi.

Lin Yu-fen instructed the props team to scatter crushed seashells in the crevices of the rocks, so that the waves would refract tiny specks of light, which would later be incorporated into the film as a subtle hint.

It metaphorically represents "the crystalline and fragile nature of a young person's heart".

In the scene, when Liu Shishi's skirt is lifted by the sea breeze, Bai Ye spontaneously takes off his coat to cover her knees.
reserve!

Lin Yufen felt that Bai Ye was simply a genius, always coming up with something new and interesting!

Moreover, it's beneficial to the plot.

"continue!"

Lin Yufen said softly, without calling a halt, wanting to see how Bai Ye could continue to perform.

As Bai Ye glanced at Liu Shishi on the monitor, his Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed, and his fingers unconsciously dug at the moss on the rocks.

Liu Shishi lightly touched the waves with her toes, and the sensation of her hair brushing against Bai Ye's hand caused his ear tips to flush.

When this close-up shot is magnified, the youthful energy that makes your heart flutter is simply perfect!!
Once they got into character, they truly captured the feelings of young boys and girls.

The long shot follows Bai Ye as he chases the sunset, eventually collapsing on the edge of the high tide line, the waves swallowing half of his trousers.

The silhouette of the boy's chest heaving violently on the monitor overlapped with the wreckage of the sunken ship.

In the scene where Liu Shishi sits alone on a rock looking out at the sea, the girl watches the boy running in the water.

With a hint of a smile and a doting gaze, the two of them amplified the ambiguity between Shen Jiayi and Ke Jingteng to its extreme at this moment.

This also made Lin Yufen realize that this would become another iconic scene in the film.
