Huayu, can you be called the best actor if you don’t indulge yourself?
Chapter 479 SailorChapter 479 SailorAmid the cheers of congratulations to Luo Ge for winning the Best New Director Award, glasses of various colors clinked crisply together.
The wine with a charming aroma splashed everywhere.
Everyone raised their glasses.
This makes the box even more lively and bustling.
Although he did not win any major awards, winning two trophies, namely the Best New Director and Best Costume Design, is something worth celebrating.
Since "Lust, Caution" did not meet the registration requirements, it could only participate in the Best Asian Film selection.
Therefore, tonight, "The Warlords" is the only one that stands out.
Won seven awards in total.
One of the things that was quite interesting was that the three technical awards for Best Cinematography, Best Art Direction, and Best Visual Effects for "The Warlords" were all won by the production team of "Painted Skin".
Chen Jiashang’s first work in the north did indeed involve a gold medal production team.
Recalling the award ceremony I just attended.
Li Luo pulled open his collar and drank the cocktail in big gulps.
The red carpet is still as dazzling as ever, the actresses’ sexy outfits are still gorgeous, and the big and small bridal gowns are dazzling under the flash lights.
That flashy scene.
Seems to be completely unaffected by the photogate.
But nevertheless.
The photo incident has become the elephant in the room. Everyone wants to find out the truth, but no one wants to talk about it.
Jet Li won the Best Actor award for the first time and was extremely proud.
Li Luo didn't know how to describe the feeling of emotion after his first meeting with the Kung Fu Emperor. The once handsome and resolute Huang Feihong and Xu Zhengyang now looked a bit fierce.
The appearance of a handsome young man.
Has disappeared.
Besides, the other party did talk a lot, just like in the variety shows I’ve watched before.
I like to be confused.
I quite enjoy the feeling that I understand but you don’t.
Give Li Luo the feeling.
To be honest, it's a bit weird.
Combining various rumors about the other party, Li Luo discovered that Jet Li was very similar to Pang Qingyun in "The Warlords".
very smart.
And be tough on yourself.
The feeling of not giving up until the goal is achieved.
If you know what you want, just work hard towards that goal. As long as you can make money, it's fine. You don't care if the roles you played in "The Mummy 3", "Danny the Dog" or "The Expendables" are controversial.
But most people in the circle are like this, there is nothing to say.
Another issue is the old saying that Hong Kong films are in decline.
Co-production.
Already accounts for the vast majority of nominations.
It is clearly an irresistible trend and there are only a few authentic Hong Kong films left, but the organizing committee dares not abandon tradition completely and still chooses to maintain the crumbling archway.
The decline of the Academy Awards in the future is inevitable.
While he was thinking.
Zhou Yougen looked over calmly.
His eyes kept moving, first falling on Yang Ying who was sitting next to him, and then on Janice Man who was still playing with the trophy not far away.
It was impossible for her not to have any suspicions.
A movie was shot.
The resources of the two artists under him are rising rapidly.
In the end.
The two only played minor supporting roles.
But ever since he participated in "Raging Fire", he played a role without any lines.
She took part in the filming of Jay Chou's new album MV and served as a guest dancer at the Hong Kong Island stop of his concert tour. During the tour, she came to me and said that she wanted to see if she could sign a contract with Spark Films.
This series of actions almost made her, the agent, unable to react.
To be honest.
She couldn't easily arrange such resources.
some things.
It becomes clear to you.
Zhou Yougen could not think of anything other than matters between men and women that could make Li Luo spare no effort to support him.
But what puzzled her was who was hooking up with Li Luo!
The two people who were originally quarreling suddenly became so loyal and never forgot to call each other for any benefits. She was really confused, but Zhou Yougen was happy to see this kind of thing.
As long as you can make money in the end, that’s enough.
Smiled happily.
The famous broker drained the glass.
Put down the cup.
Xiong Dailin calmly took out her cell phone.
The back teeth are clenched.
As she expected, she didn't receive any text message.
Xiong Dailin couldn't help but lean back on the sofa in frustration, exhaling a strong smell of alcohol, with a hint of insecurity in her eyes.
Could it be myself?
It's just so embarrassing!
She shouldn't be here, but here she is.
After the award ceremony.
Xiong Dailin had been waiting for a call from Aaron Kwok. She knew that Aaron must be in a bad mood after missing out on the Best Actor award, so she specially changed into sexy lingerie and prepared to spend a good night of relaxation with him.
You can wait and wait.
I just can't wait for any invitation.
Instead, he asked his agent to come over and congratulate Li Luo.Thinking of this, Lynn Hung became even more depressed. When she saw Aaron Kwok blaming Li Luo on TV before, she actually called him immediately to ask him what to do with the role she had accepted.
The meaning is very clear. If you don’t like me acting with Li Luo, then I can choose not to play this role.
Even if the opportunity is rare, I can give it up for you.
"If you want to act, act. If you don't want to act, don't act."
"do not ask me."
But Xiong Dailin could remember every word of the reply clearly, and it sounded as if there was nothing wrong with it. Aaron Kwok's cold tone had already revealed the second meaning.
'This is your business, not mine.'
"If you decide not to act, don't expect me to find you a role as compensation."
Xiong Dailin didn’t even think about it that way.
But in the end, it became like I was threatening myself.
After Zhou Yougen found Li Luo and explained the matter clearly, she deliberately said in front of Aaron Kwok that her agent asked her to continue playing the role, but she received a lukewarm response again.
Emotions like jealousy, dissatisfaction, possessiveness, etc.
Not feeling it at all.
It made her feel so depressed.
Others may think she is glamorous, but only she knows how passive she is in this relationship. Sometimes she even thinks about breaking up out of spite, but the thought is quickly put out of her mind.
It took a lot of effort to get this reserve status as the superstar’s wife.
She was reluctant to give it up.
Although he has never been recognized, he has indeed gained a lot of resources through this identity.
Not to mention the temptation of becoming a full-time employee in the future.
While thinking for a long time, Lynn Hung kept pouring glass of cocktail into her mouth.
Try to put out those worries and distractions.
Li Luo clinked glasses with Hong Tianming on the other side and asked curiously, "Did the old man help you find a role? If he is embarrassed to ask, let me do it."
"After all, I am a producer."
"Need not."
Hong Tianming shuddered all over and shook his head like a rattle: "Don't do that. I'm busy enough now and don't even have time to go out and play. I don't want to go to the crew and get beaten up by you again."
This performance caused everyone to burst into envious laughter.
Hong Tianming doesn't bother to care about so many things.
He makes movies for fun, and he has no shortage of money anyway, so it would be better to find a couple of bikini girls and run to Southeast Asia to bask in the sun.
The scene when I was filming "Raging Fire" and was beaten and tortured by Li Luo is still vivid in my mind.
Not to mention that there is an old man watching over there.
It's too late to hide.
How dare you ask for trouble?
After giving him a punch, Li Luo looked around the box with a smile.
Inside.
It can be said that there are many young models here.
Many of them were brought by Zhou Yougen to see the world. The resources she has at hand include not only Lynn Hung, Yang Ying and Janice Man. For most economic companies, raising artists is like raising a parasite.
Since the potential and development prospects are difficult to judge, just pile up the numbers.
Anyway, sign whatever you think is okay.
As long as there are one or two who can get up.
You can make money.
Under the colorful neon lights, these gorgeous young models came over one after another to toast at Zhou Yougen's introduction. Li Luo couldn't remember any of their English names.
What are swaying before my eyes are small suspenders of various styles.
A face full of collagen, an admiring look in the eyes, and a shaky look when he bends down.
With this momentum, no one can withstand it.
Li Luo is of course no exception.
He could only pour cocktails into his mouth one after another under the girls' toasts. Fortunately, Fan Bingbing had to go back to shoot a commercial and did not stay to celebrate, and Charmaine Sheh was also busy shooting a night scene.
otherwise.
I'm not that happy.
Now you don’t have to think about anything, just indulge yourself in the alcohol, music and beautiful women.
Hong Tianming's eyes sparkled when he saw the scene surrounded by beauties, but he could only hug the busty girl beside him in indignation, muttering all kinds of things.
The female companion looked at Hong Jiahao's eldest son in confusion, and the faint words barely squeezed through the sound of music and reached her ears.
"leave"
"So closed."
"Hold on and show off your wealth, hold on and show off your beauty!"
The big-breasted girl almost spit out the cocktail in her mouth. Her slender neck turned slowly and stiffly, and her eyes looked straight towards Li Luo's crotch.
After the laughter lasted for more than an hour, everyone left the noisy nightclub one after another.
Even though it ended a little hastily.
But it's also normal.
After all, although the night is long, there are some things that still need to be done quickly.
Just as Li Luo was about to get into a taxi, Hong Tianming grabbed him and pushed him into his business car: "Don't tell me you are tired, we still have the second half!"
“I’m so tired!!!”
Li Luo's expression was extremely serious, and he was about to turn over and slide out of the car.
"What nonsense!"
Qian Jiale hugged him tightly.
"drive."
Hong Tianming slammed the car door and took a series of photos of the driver's seat.
The tires spun wildly, the engine roared, and the commercial vehicle rushed onto the streets of Hong Kong Island.
"Okay, okay."
Helplessly shaking his head, Li Luo slapped Qian Jiale's arm and said, "Let go quickly. Are you afraid that I will jump out of the car? Where are we going?"
"yacht."
Hong Tianming just laughed.
"are you crazy?"
Li Luo was stunned for a moment, then raised his middle finger without any hesitation.
It is true that Hong Kong Island is in the south. But it is only April now, and the temperature at night is still a bit cold. If you go out to sea at this time, you really need to be a little cautious.
He shook his head and took the cigar handed to him by Hong Tianming.
Li Luo took out his cell phone again and secretly sent a few ellipsis messages to Janice Man.
The meaning is very simple.
I don’t think this will get over in a short while.
The latter quickly responded with a crying emoticon.
In most cases, Li Luo prefers to communicate directly and in depth with the girls. If they need any greetings, he will just call them and have a serious chat.
Texting is also a bit confusing. Outsiders will find it confusing anyway.
Put away your phone.
The smoke continued to drift with the night wind.
A business car shuttled quickly through the streets of Hong Kong Island in the early morning. The light from the neon signs on the roadside made the shiny body of the car shine. An old lady who was picking up cardboard pushed the car with difficulty.
There were gangsters chasing each other again, and swords kept lighting up in the night.
Diners at roadside stalls feasted on their meals, while homeless people huddled in the corner waiting for the sun to rise.
Pictures flashed past the car window.
Li Luo felt like he was in a cyberpunk city.
all of these.
It all seems so unrealistic.
With the engine roaring, the business car arrived at the dock and stopped.
"Just a few of us?"
Looking at the densely packed yachts quietly rising and falling on the berth, Li Luo turned back blankly and spread out his empty hands.
Hong Tianming is hugging a busty girl, and Qian Jiale also has a boyfriend.
These two guys.
They can't be so unreliable!
"of course not."
Biting his cigar, Hong Tianming waved the phone in his hand: "A few more friends will be here soon. It's the yacht where we filmed before. You go over first. I'll ask how long it will take."
Calling here.
On the other side, Qian Jiale was hugging the girl and kissing her passionately.
shook his head.
Li Luo walked down the stairs.
He passed the neatly laid out floating bridge and came to the yacht docked at the outermost edge. He leaped onto the quarterdeck and walked up as if he knew the way.
The cabin was brightly lit, and the table was laid out with a variety of fruits and drinks.
He walked in casually.
He opened a bottle of brandy and poured himself half a glass.
"Happy Birthday to You!"
Just as he raised his glass, a familiar voice came from the stairs leading downstairs not far away. Then the candlelight flickered, and Yang Ying, with a pretty face, slowly appeared in front of him, holding a cake.
"Happy Birthday to You!"
Janice Man appeared behind the other person with a smile on her face, waving a glow stick and singing the birthday song.
Black leather shoes.
White stockings and a blue pleated skirt.
Finally, the white shirt was indispensable. The two girls also tied blue and white striped ties at their collars, which made them look like a refreshing and beautiful sailor suit. He couldn't bear to blink when he saw it.
Further back.
There are also girls showing up.
The rabbit-ear hat trembled with her excited body, a black bow tie was tied around her white neck, and her legs were wrapped in black stockings under her swimsuit.
Those young models who had just broken up were dressed in sexy bunny girl costumes.
It appeared before my eyes so happily.
Lei Zi trembled.
The black silk stockings shone with oil.
These gorgeous young models walked in front of Li Luo in a cat-like manner, showing off their graceful figures and half-surrounding him.
Smell the charming perfume and look at the sailor suits and bunny girl costumes.
Li Luo felt like he was about to explode.
"Happy Birthday to dear Li Luo!"
The cheerful birthday song continued to play. Yang Ying and Janice Man squatted down with the cake in their hands and happily passed the flickering candlelight forward: "Happy Birthday to You!!!"
The sound stopped.
All the bunny girls clasped their hands in front of their chests and looked at Li Luo expectantly.
On the cake.
The number 26 is inserted.
The candle flames flickered at the tops of the colorful candles.
The pale yellow light shone on the pretty faces of Yang Ying and Janice Man, making them look as gentle as jade. Under the influence of this atmosphere, they were so beautiful that they were almost stunningly beautiful.
At this moment.
Hong Tianming and Qian Jiale also came into the cabin happily and looked at the vivid scene with envy.
But I felt more happy for Li Luo.
"I?"
Li Luo pointed at himself in confusion.
"Ok!"
Yang Ying grinned and nodded quickly, "Of course I know your birthday has already passed, but Ah Shan and I haven't seen any news about your birthday party."
"So let's take this opportunity tonight."
Janice Man took over the conversation and said with a bright smile: "I will also throw you a belated surprise birthday party with the new director."
"As good friends, Baby and I are being nice enough, right?"
"Haha."
"Happy birthday!!!"
"Hurry up and make a wish and blow out the candles."
The four bunny girls standing at the back cheered in unison and waved their glow sticks continuously, making the atmosphere on the yacht even more lively.
These are all friends who are close to Yang Ying and Janice Man.
So I called him over to join in the fun.
Of course, Lynn Hung is not included, although she has a good relationship with Yang Ying and Janice Man.
But let Lynn Hung come over and wear a bunny girl costume for Li Luo to see.
The two girls dared to think.
Xiong Dailin also needs to be brave enough to do it.
Of course, the people who joined the booing included Hong Tianming and Qian Jiale. Looking at the smiling faces everywhere, although Li Luo had no habit of celebrating his birthday, he still happily blew out the candles.
After all, it's other people's good intentions, so how can I spoil their fun at this time?
Li Luo grabbed two pieces of cake like lightning and smeared them on Yang Ying and Janice Man's faces amid the girls' screams. Then he chased the bunny girls who were running around with laughter.
In this chaos.
The yacht sailed out of the dock on the waves and sank into the boundless starry night.
A powerful sailor.
Facing the attack of the raging waves, he was defeated helplessly.
Looking at the beautiful arms and legs lying on the bedding and the sailor suit torn into strips, and listening to the tired snoring that came one after another, Li Luo happily closed the door and left quietly, heading straight for Chen Jiashang's studio under the early morning sun of Hong Kong Island.
As the big boss.
How can we do without paying attention to post-production?
Even with all the hassles, the movie "Painted Skin" still failed to be released before the Cannes registration deadline.
Time is too hurried.
We also have to work on the special effects one by one.
Even if Chen Jiashang had been working day and night there was nothing he could do.
After confirming that the progress was indeed behind schedule, Li Luo simply asked the other party to slow down the process. There was no guarantee of being shortlisted even if they registered, and it would be a waste of time to make a shoddy film just to register for Cannes.
It doesn’t matter whether you are shortlisted or not.
It won’t delay selling the film later.
After a day of post-production on Painted Skin, I went back home to have fun with the girls at night.
Arrived on the morning of the 15th.
Li Luocai left Hong Kong Island with the Academy Award trophy.
However, he did not return to the capital, but went to Chancheng with Wong Pak-ming, Yip Wai-hsin, Hung Yip-po and other senior crew members to start the release process before the official start of the new drama "Ip Man".
On the same day, we visited Ip Man Hall, watched a lion dance performance, and then held a new play press conference.
Wherever you go, there are crowds of people.
Under the cameras of reporters, Li Luo fearlessly hit the wooden man with a bang, which drew thunderous cheers from hundreds or thousands of people.
With his kung fu skills, he is certainly not afraid to show off.
Make money!It's not bad to perform in public.
The morning of the 16th.
The crew flew to Shanghai and came to Shengqiang Film and Television Base. Although the story takes place in Chancheng, the filming location was in Shanghai, mainly considering saving corresponding costs.
The story is set in the 1930s.
The architecture of Shanghai's film and television bases is quite consistent with the style of that time, so setting the scene is naturally much easier.
Walking in the martial arts street, Li Luo couldn't help but admire.
Looking around, there are probably hundreds or even thousands of colorful old signs, and shops are lined up on the streets, fully demonstrating the life scene of that time that combined local and foreign styles and coexisted the old and the new.
After quickly touring the set, Li Luo didn't have time to get to know the actors who had already joined the group for training.
He got on the plane and left Shanghai in a hurry.
A few hours later.
He has already arrived at the border of Hebei Province.
Sitting in the gray business car, we roared towards the Zhuozhou Film and Television Base.
This place couldn't be more familiar to me. Scenes of "Ping Zong Xia Ying", "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties" and "The Legendary Doctor and His Lover" were all filmed in Zhuozhou. I have eaten the delicious donkey meat hotpot there more than once or twice.
But this time I came in a hurry.
It's not for filming, it's purely to show support.
The TV series "The Military Saint" produced by Huayi started filming today. They stuffed an actor into the crew, and the senior management of the crew are all familiar faces, so it is reasonable for him to show up.
Although it was reasonable to call to express gratitude, his visit this time was not just to express gratitude.
And I'm chasing the male lead of this drama.
As the tires rolled, the car gradually slowed down.
From a distance, I could see through the car window a crowd of people in front of me. Cameramen were set up densely and a red banner was hung on the tall city gate tower, which read "Start-up Ceremony of the Filming Crew of the Large-Scale TV Series "The Military Saint"".
Hurry and hurry.
Finally arrived before the opening ceremony.
"Brother Luo."
Liu Wan handed over a mask.
"Ah."
After putting on the mask swiftly, Li Luo pushed the door and got out of the car.
At this time, he cannot steal the limelight, especially for the leading actor of the crew. The opening ceremony of the crew is often the highlight moment, and he cannot steal the limelight from others if he comes on stage.
This is not flattery.
It's all about finding ways to make people hate you!
At least before the opening ceremony is completed, you cannot steal the limelight from others.
As soon as the car door opened, Wang Zhonglei, who had been waiting outside, came forward with a smile on his face. However, when he saw Li Luo wearing a mask, he was a little amused: "What the hell are you doing?"
"Congratulations, Brother Lei."
Holding the other person's hand, Li Luo instantly changed his words: "I was planning to give Teacher Zhong a surprise, but you didn't tell him, did you?"
"You are such a jerk."
Wang Zhonglei suddenly realized and almost burst into laughter: "Come on, let's go, I want to see how Hu Zi reacts."
Laughter floated in the wind as the two men called out to each other and moved forward.
He strode towards the start-up site with big strides.
