Huayu: Starting with Hijacking from "The Story of a Noble Family"

"I heard you're currently making a movie, or even directing it yourself?"

"Yes, but it's just a low-budget film, and it's still in the pre-production stage; filming hasn't started yet."

"Could you reveal the budget for this film?"

"The estimated cost is two to three million."

"That's quite a lot. Was that much money invested by others or did you contribute it yourself?"

"It was my personal expense."

"Did you pay for all of it yourself?"

"Yes."

Aren't you afraid of losing money?

"If I lose money, I'll just try again. I'm still young, so losing a little won't affect me much."

How did you come up with the idea of ​​becoming a director?

"One day I suddenly had a great idea and thought I'd turn it into a movie. It wasn't too difficult, so I did it myself."

"..."

"..."

After the audience Q&A session ended, the host asked director Li Dawei and the actor who played Leng Qingqiu's uncle in the drama a few more questions, and then shifted the topic back to Xu Heng.

Xu Heng responded with a smile, but his words carried a hidden meaning.

Of course, he couldn't lose his temper on the spot, much less flip the table.

Being maliciously targeted is normal for celebrities, unless they never become popular, not to mention their strong-willed personality.

Being targeted by a mere television program, even one from CCTV, wouldn't have much of an impact on him.

Today's entertainment industry is not the entertainment industry of the future. It's impossible to just ban an actor or star arbitrarily. Since his rebirth, he doesn't even have any moral issues!

The recording of the show ended in the evening, and this time You Jianming did not arrange a dinner party.

As soon as Liu Yifei walked out of the CCTV building, she rolled her eyes at Xu Heng.

You refused to drink with your boss the day before yesterday, and now you're being retaliated against, and you've even dragged her into it!

Xu Heng smiled softly.

Today, Liu Yifei wore a pink top, paired with jeans and black high-heeled leather boots, looking both youthful and innocent. She was also dressed less formally than the day before yesterday.

Last night, Liu Yifei even sent him a text message asking if he wanted to be more formal today.

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at him again, then got into the car with her mother.

She certainly wouldn't really blame Xu Heng; she had always admired Xu Heng's personality.

The key is that no matter how much Xu Heng offends someone, it doesn't have a big impact, and he can still get the roles he wants!

Liu Xiaoli was unaware of the circumstances surrounding the previous recording of the program, but at this moment she vaguely sensed something was amiss.

Xu Heng also walked towards his Santana 2000.

四天后，3月16号周日晚上8点，今年第12期《走进电视》节目在央视8台準时播出。

The show currently has an average viewership rating of about 1%, which is in the middle range among all CCTV programs.

However, this episode achieved a 1.3% viewership rating and received a positive response after airing.

The film and television review section of Tianya quickly became a hot topic again, and Xu Heng's online popularity is now quite high.

"Have you seen the latest episode of 'Inside Television'? Xu Heng is actually going to direct a movie himself!"

"A budget of two or three million is already quite high, especially considering he's an actor and a graduate of the Beijing Film Academy's acting department. The crucial point is that none of his dramas have aired yet!"

"I knew Xu Heng must have powerful connections; otherwise, how could he so easily come up with two or three million to make a movie!"

"Maybe his family is rich. Their restaurant seems quite big, and the food is said to be pretty good. I should try it sometime!"

"I have to say, this guy is really handsome!"

"You looked even more handsome at the media screening that day than today!"

"This second female lead is so beautiful, even more beautiful than the female lead, and she looks very well-mannered!"

"No wonder Zhang Dahuzi chose them to play Duan Yu and Wang Yuyan; they do look like a good match. It's just that the second female lead is a little too young!"

"Yes, putting everything else aside, just in terms of looks and temperament, Xu Heng and Liu Yifei are definitely top-tier in the entertainment industry in my opinion. However, Xu Heng seems to have a rather flamboyant personality. During a media screening interview, he even said that he and Liu Yifei are both born stars!"

"This guy's personality is a bit flamboyant, and Liu Yifei seems a bit arrogant, but to be honest, it's not wrong to say that they're both born stars..."

"Speaking of Xu Heng and Liu Yifei, could there really be something going on between them?"

"That girl is only 15 years old. It's said her mother was with her the whole time she was filming. Don't spread rumors!"

"..."

"..."

At this point, the preliminary preparations for "Our Times" were almost complete, and the script had successfully passed the review.

Once "The Story of a Noble Family" airs, filming can officially begin!

Four days later, at 8 p.m. on March 20, "The Story of a Noble Family" officially premiered on CCTV-8.

Today's broadcast is episodes one and two. From Monday to Saturday, two episodes will be broadcast each day, with no broadcast on Sundays.

As the theme song "Dark Fragrance" ended, the first episode began with a scene from the Jin family mansion. The first character to appear was Jin's eighth sister, played by Shu Chang, who was sitting in the garden swinging on a swing.

The second character to appear was Jin Yanxi. He didn't show his face at first, but the camera kept focusing on the Republic of China-era camera in his hand.

Then, with a "click," the image of Jin's eighth sister, who was swinging on a swing, and Bai Xiuzhu behind her were frozen in the photo, followed by a close-up of the male protagonist, Jin Yanxi.

The camera then focuses on Jin Jia Ba Mei, and then gives a close-up of Bai Xiuzhu.

Compared to movies, TV series certainly can't achieve that level of detail, let alone strive for perfection.

However, modern TV dramas still strive for artistry, and various cinematic techniques and shooting methods are commonly used.

Unlike the previous life in the future, when the filming took place, the lighting was all flat, meaning the lights were directly facing the face.

This way, the actors will look better because facial details are not visible, and flaws are also not visible, which is equivalent to a skin smoothing effect, but it will reduce the quality of the drama.

Adding a filter makes it even less high-quality!

As for acting skills, needless to say.

In the previous life, many of the so-called "actors" in the future didn't even have proper blocking when acting. Most of the time, they just stood in place reciting their lines, and their way of speaking was very modern.

It would be a miracle if ordinary viewers, aside from fans, found this kind of show good!

Meanwhile, in the dormitories of the Beijing Film Academy, both the boys' and girls' dormitories were watching "The Story of a Noble Family" together.

As a film academy, Beijing Film Academy provides shared televisions in student dormitories and does not prohibit students from purchasing their own televisions.

Upon seeing Jin Yanxi and Bai Xiuzhu appear, the students immediately knew what was going on.

Regardless of whether this drama becomes a hit or not, Xu Heng and Liu Yifei, who play these two roles, are probably going to become famous!

There's also Leng Qingqiu, the female lead who appears in the first episode, although in reality, Dong Jie's appearance is definitely not as good as Liu Yifei's.

But it must be admitted that the role of Leng Qingqiu is just too perfect for her.

Even many years into the future, Dong Jie's most representative and memorable role will still be Leng Qingqiu!
