It's reasonable for me to be a three-time Golden Horse Award-winning director and an all-around

Chapter 120 Little Fei's Heart Fluttering (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
The crew of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" at Xiangshan Film and Television City, Zhejiang Province.

With the final "battle" scene concluded, Liu Yifei's scenes officially wrapped up.

As a TV series that sparked numerous controversies during the casting process, the media naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to capture the hot topic.

Of course, this was also inseparable from Zhang Jizhong's "instruction".

Previously, when Meng Guangmei, Chen Zihan, Yang Rui and others finished filming their scenes, the media made a special trip to interview them to help the production team with marketing.

Now that Liu Yifei, the female lead, has finished filming, an interview was naturally in order.

In the dressing room, reporters from the three major portal websites and several print media outlets were already waiting.

Liu Yifei had just returned from the film set when multiple cameras immediately focused on her.

She wasn't intimidated at all.

Although her parents divorced when she was young, she received a good education because of her wealthy family background.

Even though she had just turned eighteen, she exuded an effortless elegance and poise in every gesture.

Even though her baby fat made her look somewhat immature, she still exuded youthful energy.

Liu Xiaoli naturally wouldn't miss her daughter's interview.

In fact, she arrived at the dressing room even earlier than Liu Yifei, and stuffed the red envelopes that were supposed to be given into the pockets of several reporters, just to ensure that the interview went smoothly.

"Please take a seat."

A reporter from Sina handed me a small microphone.

"Thank you."

After thanking her softly, Liu Yifei took the microphone and sat down in front of the makeup mirror.

The interview was actually arranged in advance. Zhang Jizhong had given her specific instructions on what questions the reporter would ask and how to answer them, so she felt confident and not nervous at all.

Strictly speaking, although she just turned 18 this year, she is already considered a "senior" to many people in the industry.

The Story of a Noble Family, Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, Mystic River, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Chinese Paladin, The Return of the Condor Heroes...

Our main selling point is that our resources are top-notch!

It's so good it makes people envious and jealous!
Especially the second run of "Chinese Paladin", although it has not yet been broadcast on TV and has been criticized by many game fans, the character "Ling'er" has become a hit across the Internet!
The reason why many people in later generations regard her as a "white moonlight" is largely due to the influence of the Legend of Sword and Fairy.

"I heard your mother call you Xixi, so is your nickname Xixi?"

The female reporter sent by Sina was very perceptive and chose to start by chatting about everyday things.

"Yes." Liu Yifei nodded gently, her attitude poised and graceful.

"Then I'll call you Sisi too."

After the female reporter closed the distance, she got down to business, asking about interesting stories and difficulties encountered during the filming of "The Return of the Condor Heroes".

Liu Yifei answered fluently and without any hesitation.

This made the reporters in front of them nod in approval.

Unlike some female celebrities who not only have to memorize scripts before media interviews, but also have their assistants hold up the teleprompter during the interviews, otherwise they can't even speak coherently and become the subject of ridicule.

Cultural workers must first and foremost be cultured; this is crucial, otherwise they will inevitably make a fool of themselves sooner or later.

After discussing topics related to "The Return of the Condor Heroes," the reporters naturally shifted their focus to the actors' personal lives, work, and careers.

The reporter from NetEase immediately posed a rather pointed question: "Some people criticize you, saying that your acting skills are far inferior to Zhou Xun's, and that you will definitely ruin the role of Xiaolongnu. What do you think?"
This topic is indeed a hot topic of discussion.

To be precise, ever since Zhang Jizhong confirmed that Liu Yifei would play the role of "Little Dragon Girl," she has been subjected to constant smears and criticisms from the outside world.

Some say her acting was awkward in "The Story of a Noble Family," that she was like a pretty but useless vase in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils," and that all she did in "Chinese Paladin" was laugh and act coquettish...

Therefore, we can conclude that she will definitely ruin the role of Xiaolongnu in The Return of the Condor Heroes!

Liu Yifei was heartbroken for a while because of this.

It wasn't until she realized that fans and viewers alike expressed their love for the character she played that she suddenly understood that she had probably been in the way of too many people, which was why she was being targeted...

Especially The Return of the Condor Heroes.

Zhang Jizhong walked so many actresses around like he was walking a dog, but in the end he chose her, which inevitably drew a lot of dissatisfaction.

So she gradually reduced her online surfing frequency and devoted more time to character development.

"I'm actually quite confident. I think my portrayal of Xiaolongnu might not be as good as Li Ruotong's, and it might not become a classic, but it shouldn't be too bad. At least it won't disappoint the audience and fans."

After thinking for a moment, Liu Yifei gave this answer.

"Oh?" The reporter looked at her curiously. "What's the source of your confidence? Your looks? Or do you think your acting skills are better than Zhou Xun's?"

The pit was so deep that Liu Xiaoli, who was standing to the side, almost doubted whether she had given the NetEase reporter a red envelope.

In terms of looks, Liu Yifei is far superior to Zhou Xun.

But in terms of acting skills, to be honest, the two are no match right now.

"You absolutely mustn't fall into the pit!" Liu Xiaoli winked at her daughter from the side!
Liu Yifei is certainly not stupid.

Although she can sometimes seem a bit silly and goofy when she's having fun, she's very reliable when she's serious.

"In terms of acting skills, I have been working hard to learn, but there is definitely a big gap compared to Teacher Zhou Xun. As for my confidence, part of it comes from how well I fit the role."

Moreover, when Director Jiang and senior student Lü Rui visited the set before, they said that my image and temperament were quite similar to the Little Dragon Girl in the book, and they both thought my performance in this drama was pretty good..."

When Lü Rui and Jiang Wen visited the set last year, Zhang Jizhong had already done a marketing campaign, which is common knowledge.

But what the reporters didn't know was that these two big-name directors in the industry had actually said such things!

"Directors Lü and Jiang said your image is a perfect fit for the role?" The Baidu reporter asked with surprise. "Yes," Liu Yifei nodded slightly; this was indeed one of the sources of her confidence.

Actually, she was quite unsure of herself before, after all, with Li Ruotong's version being such a masterpiece, the pressure of remaking it was immense.

But Lü Rui often said that her portrayal of Xiaolongnu was better than Li Ruotong's, and after hearing it so many times, she accepted this assessment with some skepticism.

Whether it's true or not, the senior is praising her, so let's be happy first!

"You've worked with Director Lü on three films, right? What do you think of his personality? Were there any interesting things that happened during your collaborations?"

The reporter became interested as soon as Lü Rui was mentioned.

The main reason is that he's become incredibly popular lately!

Winning an Oscar, managing film projects with hundreds of millions in investment, and thriving in Hollywood...

Unfortunately, he rarely appears on TV shows. He only participates in promotional activities when a new film is released. Under normal circumstances, it's impossible to even catch him, as he is often traveling between China and abroad.

"His personality?" Liu Yifei thought for a moment and replied, "He's usually quite gentle and friendly. He's very caring and comforting, like a kind older brother next door..."

The dressing room was quiet, with only the rustling of pens scratching across paper.

It was a rare opportunity to hear another side of Lü Rui from someone else, so everyone listened with extra attention.

Only Liu Xiaoli stood to the side with her arms crossed, her eyes full of scrutiny.

Friendly? Caring? Like the big brother next door?
How come she didn't notice these characteristics in Lü Rui?
And why did this girl suddenly become so excited as she talked?

Spring is here, could it be that this little girl is also feeling the stirrings of spring?

At this point, Liu Yifei, after praising him for a while, seemed to realize something was amiss and quickly changed the subject: "But he's really fierce when filming, I even cried because of his scolding..."

But he was very patient. When I made mistakes in my performance, although he would scold me, he would still patiently teach me again and again.

I always learn a lot from him. We're going to be working together on a new movie soon, and I'm really looking forward to it..."

"???"

Reporters from Sina, NetEase, and Baidu were all stunned.

and many more?

What did you mean by that last sentence?
The reporters were all very shrewd, their minds working incredibly fast.

If they heard correctly, Liu Yifei said they were going to collaborate on a new drama soon.
"Is it Taken?" They immediately grasped the key.

"Oops! I let it slip!"

Liu Yifei covered her mouth, her eyes filled with regret.

She was perfectly lucid just now, so why did she become so confused as soon as they started talking about Lü Rui? She blurted out things that should have been kept secret!

"So, you're going to play the 'daughter' role in 'Taken,' which hasn't been officially announced yet?"

"Sisi, is Jiang Wen going to play the 'father' role?"

"What advantages did you have to get this role?"

A group of reporters instantly forgot about "The Return of the Condor Heroes".

The entire internet is now speculating about the unannounced cast of "Taken," and some have even started polls to guess who will play the role.

I never expected that the real target would be here!

"I'm sorry, we cannot comment on these issues at the moment. Hongxingwu will issue a relevant announcement in conjunction with Ruishijie later..."

After the original agent resigned, Liu Xiaoli, the acting agent, had to step in and help out in this situation.

Although we can't get more information from Liu Yifei, media reports are good at making things up, and this is almost an open secret response.

Furthermore, the expressions and attitudes of the mother and daughter confirmed their suspicions.

Soon, the reporters who had come to interview scattered and rushed off to write their articles, eager to grab the headlines.

Liu Yifei was almost in tears: "Mom, what should I do? My senior said it was a secret, but I accidentally let it slip. Will it affect the production team's marketing?"

She was afraid of ruining Lü Rui's plans, and even more afraid of being disliked by him because of it...

"It's alright," Liu Xiaoli comforted him with a complicated expression. "Director Lü sent a message yesterday saying that casting is over and the main cast will be officially announced. It's fine to reveal it now, since we were going to release an announcement anyway."

"That's good……"

Liu Yifei breathed a sigh of relief; the little deer in her heart finally calmed down.

"Xixi, do you and Director Lü contact each other frequently in private?" Liu Xiaoli began to inquire about the situation.

There are too many wicked men out there, and she felt she needed to pay attention to the appropriate boundaries her daughter had with men.

"No, I just check in occasionally."

Liu Yifei quietly hid her phone behind her back, wondering if she should log out of QQ before filming in the future.

She wasn't worried that her mother would secretly look through her chat history, but she was afraid that Lü Rui would suddenly send a message and be seen by her...

Actually, there wasn't anything outrageous in the chat history.

It's just that... it's just that Lü Rui always calls her "Little Fei Bao" and says she has chubby cheeks!

This bad guy!
Where is she fat?

It's so annoying!
