Chapter 279 The initial appearance of the global film market
Chen Bige is not an actor with a very "clean" past. This is a consensus in the media industry.
This actress who has won more than a dozen Best Actress trophies is also known as the top actress at the moment. From the first day of her debut, she has never pretended to be herself, whether it is a beautiful woman or anything. The character of a talented woman has nothing to do with her.
She is a very "wild" actor, like a diamond just unearthed from the mountain. It has not been carved and is dazzling only by its own inherent brilliance.
She drank, smoked, swore, and talked about love in a dark and desperate manner. In the years when she first debuted, if it weren't for Chen Ziyan who tried her best to wipe her butt behind her back, and her acting skills and talent were really It's great, it's great that many people cherish her talent and give her opportunities again and again just for her acting skills. She got through the most difficult period, established a firm footing, and then soared to the sky and achieved the status she has today.
After gaining such a status today, Chen Bige did not think about changing his style. She is still like this, and she is often photographed by the media in some behaviors that are not consistent with a public figure, and even swearing. However, this is probably because Chen Bige has been exposed to such news from time to time since her debut. She has never pretended to be a different persona. In addition, her business ability is really great, and she has basically never played the kind of "pure little white flower". "The audience didn't feel betrayed by the contrast between her screen image and her personal image, so it didn't affect her career in the end.
One is Chen Bige and the other is Shang Yongzhou. These two people are Chen Ziyan's biggest achievements as an agent, and they are also the two people who established the legend of her "vision".
Not only looking at people, but also looking at projects.
The roles of Chen Bige and Shang Yongzhou were basically taken over by Chen Ziyan, including cases where they were unwilling to act but were persuaded by Chen Ziyan. These are tidbits that are popular in tabloids and are talked about in the industry. story.
Therefore, the projects chosen by Chen Ziyan are often snapped up by everyone.
This is also one of the reasons why "Seventeen Floor", which was originally an S+ drama after being selected by Chen Ziyan, was able to survive the infighting between Beijing and Taiwan.
"Yes." Chen Bige nodded, "I had a cameo role in the second part, and I was brought back in the third part."
Chen Ziyan: "He also doesn't have to think about filming abroad until he graduates from college. Now he doesn't even have time to film in China."
Lu Yanhe thought to himself that he probably wouldn't have to think about it in the next few years.
Among them, China and the United States are the only two independent national markets.
"They want China's box office, and they engage in such mindless things. Who will spoil them!" Chen Bige said, "I got angry several times, but haven't I stopped acting like a monster? I can obviously be good. If we have to cooperate with others, we have to do something like this, I’m speechless.”
In this time and space, there are four large markets with global annual box office volume reaching more than 4 billion US dollars.
"This time I played a female villain and a female pirate." Chen Bige told Chen Ziyan. "As a result, all the scenes were shot in front of a green screen, and almost all of them were performed without real objects."
But Chen Bige didn't seem to intend to swallow his anger.
The other two are the Asian market except the Chinese market, and the European market.
The box office volume of the four film markets can be compared with each other, unlike in another time and space. Except for China, which came from behind, they are basically being crushed by the American film market.
Chen Ziyan smiled and gave her a thumbs up and said, "No one can bully you about your temper."
Therefore, Lu Yanhe always thought that Chinese actors acting overseas should not be treated like "third-class citizens" like they were before he crossed over.
Lu Yanhe was a little surprised when he heard what Chen Bige said.
With the help of Chen Ziyan, Chen Bige will also star in this drama. This drama can basically be said to be the most watched drama next year.

Chen Bige felt a little helpless when talking about the situation of filming a movie overseas this time.
"No, the staff." Chen Bige said, "Especially my makeup artist, damn, you didn't even know what the makeup you gave me looked like at the beginning. It was ugly and disgusting. I was so angry that I went straight to the producer and The director told them that if they just needed an image that was so ugly that they couldn't even tell what I looked like, there was no need to look for me. Later they found someone else to style me, but I still couldn't accept it. Ke's team was invited to do it for me, and I revised it several times according to their opinions before reaching a consensus. Ziyan, those people just bully you and think you don't understand anything. I want to show them who can. bully me."
Chen Ziyan was a little surprised when she heard this and asked: "Are they the actors who acted together?"
Chen Ziyan heard this and said: "This movie is the third part of "Pirates of Xinqi", right?"
Kuang Kuang just worked hard and didn't let himself suffer.
"Why? Do you have so many classes? Can't you take a day off?"
Chen Bige: "Stop talking. I was acting there and met several shameless bitches. They thought I couldn't understand English and humiliated me subtly and subtly. I almost took action and scolded them. They When he heard that I was very fluent in English, he was shocked, and he didn’t mess with me again.”
Lu Yanhe nodded and said yes.
"Okay, then this is really a headache." Chen Bige said, "Then this is not a waste of the current popularity."
"He is not studying acting, and it is not good to ask for leave all the time. On the one hand, he really wants to learn something in school, and on the other hand, if he asks for leave frequently, it will also have a bad impact. Now There are too many eyes on him, paying attention to his every move.”
"How was the scene?"
"It's not a waste, and I didn't invest too much." Chen Ziyan shook her head. "You don't even know that he wrote a script not long ago, a movie script. Jia Long took a fancy to it and is ready to cooperate with Jia Long."
In short, this is not a film market dominated by Hollywood, but a film world that is blooming everywhere. In terms of box office, Hollywood films account for at most three to four of the top ten films at the global box office every year.
"Who knows, now that Xiao Lu is so popular, maybe foreign film crews will come looking for Xiao Lu soon." Chen Bige said.
The Chinese film market is huge.
Chen Ziyan: "That's not bad. Being featured in a blockbuster series like "Pirates of Xinqi" can help you gain popularity."
Similarly, Asian movies are also very brilliant. China, Thailand, Japan and South Korea have created a brilliant Asian movie market, and the annual box office of movies is not much lower than that of Hollywood.
Would a top actress like Chen Bige still encounter this kind of thing when she arrives in Hollywood?
Why does it sound so much like the time and space before he traveled through time?
In this world, there is still Hollywood, and Hollywood is still the most influential commercial film center. However, there are some differences. For example, it is not without competitors. Europe also has a film production base. Unlike in another time and space, Europe Movies basically only retain the exclusive territory of literary films.
Under this pattern, global movies are basically fighting every year.
He has not yet understood his own domestic drama.
Chen Bige glanced at Lu Yanhe in surprise.
Chen Ziyan saw that Chen Bige was trying to get Lu Yanhe to talk over wine, so she stopped her and said, "Why do you always tell Xiao Lu this? It's still early for Xiao Lu to go filming abroad."
"It's not bad, it's not a soy sauce role." Chen Bige said, "But the performance space is just like that. There is no performance. It is just a performance, using my face."
foreign?
She warned Lu Yanhe: "Xiao Lu, when you go to film overseas in the future, don't be afraid. Those guys are looking for you. Don't really listen to their lies, saying that you are the god of acting and you are an artist. They want to cooperate with you. They are all nonsense. Nine out of ten are here because you are popular in China and because of the domestic box office market. So, don’t be embarrassed at all. It doesn’t matter if you play a supporting role or a villain. This is an actor. It’s a profession, but an actor must not be too timid, he must have a firm foothold, and he must go back to work when something happens, and he must not let others look down upon you.”
In order to capture the box office in other markets, large-scale productions will generally recruit actors and producers from various countries, like "Pirates of Hinch", to make the film more "inclusive" and attract more audiences.

After Chen Bige drank two glasses of wine, his mood became obviously high.
"But you have a big advantage. We just suffer the disadvantage of being uneducated. You are a person who was admitted to Zhenhua. They have actors who graduated from Harvard and Cambridge. You are also a Zhenhua graduate. You are not bad at anything!" Chen Bige said, "Let me tell you, both of them are very elitist. Don't learn from their bad habits."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
Chen Bige was surprised, "Is he starring with Jia Long?"
"No, he won't star. He may make a guest appearance, but he will mainly participate in film production as a screenwriter." Chen Ziyan said, "You didn't expect it, right?"
Chen Bige asked: "He is only a freshman and can he write scripts?"
"The story was actually written in the senior year of high school. He wrote a story at that time to convince me to sign him." Chen Ziyan smiled when talking about the past and looked at Lu Yanhe. Lu Yanhe was also a little embarrassed. Chen Ziyan continued Said, "So, even if Xiao Lu has been delayed for a while in the past few years, and his popularity has dropped, and he is not very popular, I am not too worried. He will become popular again if he has the ability."
Hearing this, Chen Bige nodded and asked, "Zi Yan, can I read the script written by Xiao Lu?"
"What, you want to make a guest appearance?" Chen Ziyan asked.
Chen Bige said: "It's not impossible for you to let me make a guest appearance in the script written by my junior brother."
Chen Ziyan: "Aren't you kidding?"
"What a joke."
"It's been a long time since you made a cameo."
"That's because I'm too lazy to make guest appearances for those people. I don't owe them anything if I'm not a relative, so why bother."
Chen Ziyan nodded.
Chen Bige then said to Lu Yanhe: "Xiao Lu, since you have the talent to write scripts, how about you tailor a script for me? It's really been too long since I received a script that makes me excited and wants to act in it. .”
Lu Yanhe was very embarrassed and said, "I have only written one script before. I am still relatively new and not very good at writing."
"Even if a good thing is not perfect at the beginning, everyone can see that it is a good thing." Chen Bige said, "You have this talent. Even if the first draft you write has only one sentence that is usable in the end, I can still see that it is a good thing." thing."
Chen Bige seems to have full confidence in his own vision.
After hearing what Chen Bige said, Lu Yanhe thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
It may be difficult to write a movie script for Chen Bige with a heroine, but it is still easy to write a story. If it doesn't work, let Chen Bige find a professional screenwriter to adapt the story he wrote into a script. To be honest, he feels that his ability to write scripts is still lacking.
Especially the ability to write dialogue.
Just relying on memory to retell some movies I have watched, there are too many things that I need to add by myself.
-
After eating and drinking with Chen Bige, Chen Ziyan took her to her car and told the assistant and driver who came to pick her up to take her to her home. Watching her come in, Chen Bige looked dissatisfied and said, "You still have Do you treat me like a child?"
Chen Ziyan said unceremoniously: "You are just a child."
Chen Bige snorted and turned to look at Lu Yanhe: "Xiao Lu, don't forget the script you promised to write for me."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
After Chen Bige left, Chen Ziyan said to Lu Yanhe: "Don't be stressed. Just forget it if you can't write it. She just drank some wine and went crazy. It'll be fine when she wakes up. It's not that easy to write a script." If it were so easy, she wouldn't have not received a satisfactory script in the past two years."
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "It's okay."
"Ah?" Chen Ziyan was stunned.
Lu Yanhe said: "As soon as I saw the script that Sister Bige wanted, I had some ideas in my mind."
"Really?" Chen Ziyan looked at Lu Yanhe in disbelief.
Lu Yanhe said: "Really, but I'm really not good at writing scripts. I'll write it as a story first. I still have to think about how to change it into a script."
Chen Ziyan glanced at Lu Yanhe in surprise.
She really didn't expect that Lu Yanhe really had an idea.
-
Of course Lu Yanhe was not bragging.
There are indeed several movies suitable for Chen Bige in his movie library.
In Chen Bige, Lu Yanhe saw the shadows of many people, Shu Qi, Tang Wei... They all have a sense of atmosphere, and this sense of atmosphere also gives them a unique temperament.
Lu Yanhe asked Chen Ziyan: "Sister Ziyan, sister Bige, does she want a commercial film or a literary film script?"
Chen Ziyan shook her head, "For her now, it doesn't matter whether it's a commercial film or a literary film. The key is a good script that can impress her and make her want to perform."
Lu Yanhe nodded, "Okay."
That night, he returned to Ziyuan Bridge.
Li Zhibai is also there.
He yelled, not expecting Lu Yanhe to come back suddenly today.
"Don't you have to go to class tomorrow? Why did you come back suddenly tonight?"
Lu Yanhe said: "I have something to do, so I have to go to bed late."
Li Zhi said oh.
"Why are you here today?" Lu Yanhe asked.
In the past six months, Li Zhi has been extremely busy. He rarely comes back to sleep one day a month. He travels all over the country and is a real popular star.
Mainly because Li Zhibai's dramas and variety shows such as "Along with You to the End of the World" and "Young Days" last year helped him become popular, and this year, he has been unable to schedule all kinds of work arrangements.
Li Zhibai said: "I feel a little uncomfortable today. I just came back from the hospital after getting an injection."
Lu Yanhe glanced at Li Zhibai in surprise. He was about to enter his room. After hearing this, he walked towards Li Zhibai and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Li Zhibai: "Maybe it's because I'm too busy, stay up late, eat irregularly, and have low blood sugar. Today when I was shooting a magazine, I squatted for a while. When I got up again, my eyesight turned black and I collapsed."
He still looked as lazy as usual, but if you look closely, you can still find that Li Zhibai is indeed a little tired, his eyes are a little tired, and he is not as energetic as before.
Lu Yanhe: "Then how do you feel now?"
"It's okay." Li Zhibai said, "It's not serious, so don't worry, just go about your business."
Lu Yanhe hesitated for a moment and asked, "How about we go have a midnight snack?"
Li Zhibai looked at Lu Yanhe in shock: "Eating midnight snack?"
"Don't you think you're so skinny now?"
"I didn't pay attention." Li Zhibai shook his head.
Lu Yanhe asked: "Is Zhou Ping'an treating you like a mule?"
Li Zhibai: "I am happy with it myself."
Lu Yanhe: "I didn't see it, you are still a career dog."
Li Zhibai snorted, "Why don't you come to the entertainment industry to do this? Why don't you become my rich second generation?"
Lu Yanhe: "...a real dog."
Li Zhibai chuckled.
"Okay, stop nagging and go ahead. Don't you have something to do and have to go to bed late?"
Lu Yanhe nodded, "Yes, okay, then I'll go about my business."
He took two steps and looked back at Li Zhibai.
Li Zhibai was lying on the sofa looking at his phone, and realized that Lu Yanhe had stopped to look at him again.
"What's wrong again?"
"It's okay." Lu Yanhe temporarily put down the idea that just popped up in his head and said, "How about I write a script for you?"
"What?" Li Zhibai sat up suddenly and looked at him in disbelief.
Lu Yanhe said, "How about I write a script for you and Yan Liang and you guys act in it?"
Li Zhibai looked at Lu Yanhe in shock, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Are you serious? When will you write scripts again?"
Lu Yanhe chuckled and shook his head, "Forget it, let's not talk about it for now. Let's wait until I write it down."
Li Zhibai: "Write it first, and then talk about it after you write it."
Li Zhibai didn't believe that Lu Yanhe could write it.
He didn't even know that the script of "People on the Road" was chosen by Jia Long.
Lu Yanhe was looking at Li Zhibai just now and suddenly remembered a movie.
A very famous foreign movie.
Chen Bige's request reminded Lu Yanhe that he had thought about writing a song each for Li Zhibai and Yan Liang before, so why couldn't he just write a script for them? Anyway, both of them started acting.
Lu Yanhe returned to the room, opened his laptop, and created two new documents.
At this time, Li Zhibai suddenly knocked on the door again.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yanhe asked.
Li Zhibai did not open the door, but stood at the door and said through the door: "If you really write it, Yan Liang and I can still act it, so you'd better write it well and don't write it too badly."
Li Zhibai's voice was teasing.
Lu Yanhe smiled and said, "I understand."
