Huayu after the system left

........

6 month 26 day.

Friday.

clear.

10:00 AM.

Numerous media outlets gathered outside Tangren Media.

Today is the press conference for the start of filming of "Qingninglu".

Because Zhou Yang, the original author, is going to play the male lead, and given his relationship with Liu Shishi, the actress playing the female lead, the event has attracted extraordinary attention from the outside world, far exceeding the level of other production team press conferences.

The key is.

A rumor has been circulating in the community lately.

That is, Zhou Yang himself is going to personally direct "Wilderness Journey" and "Zhu Xian".

How so?

It's not uncommon in the country for people from other fields to become directors.

Especially writers who switch careers.

There are already two examples, Guo Jingming and Han Han, who can be considered somewhat successful.

One was made for fans, and although it received countless criticisms, it made a fortune.

The other one takes the art-house film route, and it is said that his second film is in preparation.

But Zhou Yang seemed somewhat different from the other two.

First of all.

The photos were taken of other people's work.

It also clearly demonstrates the author's level of affection for the female lead, Lu Xueqi, which completely separates her from her identity as a writer.

Second.

The preparations were far too thorough.

Looking at the registration dates of the three special effects companies, it's estimated that Zhou Yang had this idea as early as the end of 12 or even earlier, and then put it into action. Recently, he has just been gradually showcasing the results.

From this point of view.

His followers were surprisingly tolerant of the "rumors" he was about to direct.

And it's the same reason Zhou Yang gave.

No one knows those three visual effects companies better than him.

Before the news came out.

Speculation about who will direct "Wilderness Journey" has been rampant online.

Several top domestic directors are popular choices.

Especially Zhang Yimou, who just finished filming "The Great Wall".

That's a major Sino-US co-production.

Although the female lead is Jing Tian, ​​the director is Zhang Yimou, so the audience is still very much looking forward to it, even though all the previous Sino-US co-productions were terrible.

However, this is a disadvantage in the competition for the director of "Wild West".

Very simple.

Foreigners have no idea what fantasy or martial arts stories they know.

Zhang Yimou, who had just finished working with them, was definitely not suitable, and besides, his aesthetic style didn't seem to fit well with fantasy and martial arts films.

The same applies to Chen Kaige.

His aesthetic style has been completely Westernized, as can be clearly seen from "A Bloodbath Caused by a Steamed Bun".

Therefore, the most popular candidate is actually Tsui Hark, who directed "The Legend of Zu".

until.

Rumors have surfaced that Zhou Yang will be directing the film herself.

The speculation about the director's selection came to an abrupt end.

Many media outlets are here today to verify whether the news is true.

no way.

Since the exposure of Tianjian Studio, the related popularity has never waned, with news about it frequently trending on social media.

Just like nomadic groups that move with the flow of water and pasture.

Most news media today chase after social hot topics.

The underlying survival logic of the two is almost identical, and the results are also quite similar: one destroys the ecological environment, and the other destroys the social environment.

........

Inside the company.

Looking at Liu Shishi, who was clearly in a daze.

Cai Yinong then walked up to her and waved, "Wake up."

"Huh? Is it starting?"

"It'll be a while. What's wrong with you these past two days? Your assistant said you suddenly felt like this yesterday when we were filming GG."

Upon hearing this question...

Liu Shishi glared at someone with some annoyance.

That day.

Zhou Yang held nothing back.

It fully reveals the cruel reality.

Starting from the very beginning of the rules governing the world today, it gradually exposes the falsehoods woven from various lies.

The result is.

Liu Shishi's values ​​have been completely reshaped, and she has been in a state of confusion from time to time in the past few days.

In particular, the worldview formed under the influence of the arts and literature circles collapsed completely.

She is now completely unable to look at news related to "Western civilized world" the same way.

On the contrary, it was Wang Churan.

Because their values ​​and worldviews were not yet fully formed, they readily accepted those ideas and were not greatly affected. At most, they became more mature and lost some of their youthful vigor.

Liu Shishi sighed before replying, "Sister K, I'm fine. I've just been thinking about a lot of things lately."

Cai Yinong nodded. "Then you'd better be on your guard later. There are a lot of media here today, so you can't say the wrong thing."

"I understand, but their main target should be that brat, I'm just an extra."

"That's true, but we can't let our guard down."

"Don't worry, don't worry."

After half an hour.

The press conference for the launch of "Qingninglu" has begun.

Just as Liu Shishi had predicted.

All the media attention was focused on Zhou Yang, the original author and male protagonist.

at first.

The question asked was still related to the "Qingninglu".

But the style quickly went astray.

It started when a media outlet asked Zhou Yang, "Which character is your favorite?"

Logically speaking

This question is essentially promoting the "Qingninglu" (清宁录).

But rather.

Zhou Yang did not answer in the usual way; he gave his answer without thinking.

"Lu Xueqi".

This answer was both reasonable and unexpected.

The questioner added somewhat helplessly, "I mean the many characters you've created."

But Zhou Yang gave another answer that surprised everyone: "Senior Sister."

Cai Yinong suddenly felt a headache coming on.

Mr. Zhou, could you at least offer a little something? This is the launch event for "Qingninglu," how can you talk about another book?

However, the numerous media outlets present didn't care about any of that.

They all saw the hot topic in this answer.

then.

The next question from the media became, "If that's the case, why did you choose to play the male lead in 'Qingninglu'? Is it because it's your first work to be adapted into a film or television series?"

Because the other party directly blocked the most standard answer.

Zhou Yang then said with a smile, "No, I just want to try what it feels like to be an older brother. After all, I've been bullied by someone a lot since I was a child."

"Could this be interpreted as the inspiration for the creation of 'Qingninglu'?"

"No, after all, I hadn't thought of that at the time. I hadn't become a shareholder of Tangren yet. After seeing some false advertising, I thought of showing the true side of someone."

The room immediately erupted in laughter.

Everyone thought this was Zhou Yang's humorous answer.

Everyone knows now that he invested in Tangren Media to protect Liu Shishi.

But little did they know.

This is the real reason; providing protection is merely a secondary, incidental objective.

The reporter then immediately followed up with a rather ambiguous question, "It's clear that you and Ms. Liu have a very good relationship, but you're only like siblings. How would you portray the feelings between lovers in 'Qingninglu'?"

Zhou Yang stroked his chin, then turned to look at the side. "This is indeed a tricky problem, sis. How about we take this opportunity to try dating?"

Liu Shishi knew.

This is the younger brother asking himself if he should take this opportunity to lay the groundwork so that he can later say that the sibling relationship changed because of acting. If he agrees now, he can also use the scandal to promote the popularity of "Qing Ning Lu".

If it were before, she would have definitely agreed immediately.

However, this is a period of reshaping values.

Liu Shishi had an instinctive aversion to this kind of thing, and preferred to keep it a secret rather than choose to deceive with lies. So she took out the air of an older sister she used to have when they were young and said, "Get out of here, are you asking for a beating?"
