Chapter 172 "Your Lie in April" Is Coming Soon!
Changan Film and Television Company.
"It's easier to get things done when you're famous."
"That's right."
Zhou Kai, Lin Qiu, and Lu Yan joked as they walked towards the conference room.
It was too difficult to find actors before they became famous.
But now with Lin Qiu's achievements, even if he has tried the TV drama industry before.
As long as Lin Qiu and Changan go to make an appointment, even veteran actors are unlikely to refuse Lin Qiu's request if they have time!
Young actors need fighting scenes, but many old actors don't.
In about the next month, another round of auditions will be held, and almost all the roles will be finalized.
The only pity is that Mr. Chen Daohua did not agree to Lin Qiu's request for a guest appearance.
"I really can't act anymore."
"Let's talk about the next part."
As soon as he received Lin Qiu's call, Chen Daohua hurriedly shook his head.
In May, the crew of "The Truman Show" will go to Cannes to participate in the film festival.
When it is released in June, they will have to go to crews in various places and run roadshows.
In addition to commercial purposes, the roadshow of a movie also provides space for the director and actors of the crew to communicate with the audience.
Even Chen Daohua will still have a few important roadshows.
"The Legend of the Yang Family Generals" will start shooting in July. Chen Daohua is really powerless and cannot compare with young people like Lin Qiu.

Lin Qiu and Zhou Kai entered Chang'an's conference room together.
In the conference room, many actors from the crew of "Those Years" were already waiting.
Among them were the male and female leading actors Qu Wen and Jiang Hao, as well as several young actors in Chang'an who played Ke Jingteng's classmates and best friends.
Although in terms of age, several of these young actors are older than Lin Qiu.
But when they saw Lin Qiu, they all stood up and shouted:
"Director Lin! Director Zhou! Director Lu!"
"Director Lin! Director Zhou! Director Lu!"
In the Xiazhou entertainment circle, the status of directors and producers is usually higher than that of actors.
What's more, Lin Qiu and Chang'an are both directors and investors.
Even the hot new star Qu Wen was still respectful. She was an actor promoted by Changan. She was grateful to Changan for her current life.
This was Zhou Kai's first time directing a formal film. As the "gold medal deputy director" of Changan Film and Television Company, Lu Yan would assist Zhou Kai in filming the movie "Those Years".
Lu Yan was a complete witness to Changan's rise.
He had served as the deputy director of Lin Qiu and Ye Zhiyuan, and now it was Zhou Kai's turn.
From the previous chat with Zhou Kai, Lu Yan could feel that Zhou Kai had his own understanding of movies.
It was just that he might be different from the mature Lin Qiu and Ye Zhiyuan, and was still an unpolished jade.
Before going to the Cannes Film Festival, Lin Qiu would still keep a close eye on the filming of "Those Years".
However, with Director Lu and Changan's filming team there, Lin Qiu was not worried.
The crew meeting soon began under Zhou Kai's leadership, including the shooting plan and script details.
At first, Zhou Kai, who had little experience, was a little nervous.
But soon, Zhou Kai was immersed in his work.
Zhou Kai's excellent social skills since childhood made him not afraid of the stage at all. He was serious and earnest, which was completely different from his usual unserious appearance.
Zhou Kai knew very well that this opportunity was given to him by Lin Qiu.
Although he might have some talent in film, there were too many directors with such talent in Xiazhou.
Because of this, he had to be more serious and give back to Lin Qiu's help.
Otherwise, not to mention outsiders gossiping, even the company would gossip.
So what if he has connections?
As long as he can make achievements, he can shut up many people.
"The film will start shooting in a week, and the estimated shooting time is 50 days."
"The location is Xucheng No. 3 Middle School in Xucheng."
Just as the crew of "Those Years" was holding a crew meeting, Ye Zhiyuan's "Fatal Identity" officially started shooting in the west of Xiazhou!
At the same time, "The Truman Show" released a trailer and officially set the release date!
The iron triangle of Changan Film officially set sail at this moment.
……
# The Truman Show is scheduled for release on June 17 #
# Lin Qiu's new film The Truman Show trailer #
# The Truman Show Xizhou movie star #
When these hot searches appeared on the blog one after another, many fans of Xiazhou immediately clicked in!
[Lin Qiu's new film trailer! ]
[Tsk tsk tsk! The previous film "Hachiko" broke the overseas box office record, and this "Truman Show" must be able to reach a higher level! ]
[Believe in Lin Qiu and Teacher Chen Daohua! ]
[I'm Chao! This trailer is amazing! I must watch this theme! It's amazing! ]
[What theme, what theme! ]
The fans who watched the trailer first were immediately excited.
They shouted "I'm Chao" crazily on the blog!
It immediately attracted the curiosity of a group of fans.
"What's so good about Lin Qiu's trailer?"
"It's all a scam anyway."
These fans still remember the trailers of Lin Qiu's previous films "Dying to Survive" and "Hachiko".
Before the release, I couldn't feel the slightest tear-jerking.
But after the release, I cried my eyes out in the cinema!
If the quality of these two films wasn't so high.
Lin Qiu's behavior was criticized by fans as "false propaganda" or "selling dog meat under the guise of sheep meat".
So many fans have always said that Lin Qiu's trailers are unreliable.
But this time, Lin Qiu and "Truman" are serious trailers, after all, they will be released simultaneously in Jiuzhou around the world.
If they continue to be mysterious, they may not achieve the desired effect, after all, Lin Qiu does not have a fan base in Jiuzhou.
When they clicked on the trailer, the first thing that caught the fans' eyes was the scene where Truman, played by Li Jie, said "Good afternoon, good evening and good night".
Later, the fans did not find anything worthy of praise or exclamation.
"Are these crazy fans of Lin Qiu too exaggerated?"
"Everything shot by Lin Qiu must be called "Fuck it", no matter what it is..."
"Fuck it!!!"
Just when this "neutral fan" made an objective evaluation.
In the next scene, at the seaside in the dark, Shi Wei Ya shouted to the bewildered Truman:
"Truman! Listen to me!"
"Everyone knows everything about you!"
"Everyone is pretending! Do you understand!"
"You have to escape! You must escape!"
The scene turned, and Chen Daohua's cold eyes came from the other side, giving orders like "God"!
Every time he gave orders, Truman would experience a terrible lightning.
And Chris's words slowly sounded in the narration, echoing Shi Wei Ya's "Listen to me" before:
"Listen to me, Truman."
"The world outside is as fake as the world I gave you, with the same lies and the same fraud."
"But in my world, you don't have to be afraid of anything."
...
After the voice fell, Chen Daohua closed his eyes.
The trailer of "Truman" with perfect texture and explosive content information ended here.
The voices of doubt stopped at the moment of the end.
In the short one-minute trailer, although we don't know what the story is.
But it revealed several key information, which immediately caused fans to discuss.
"What does it mean? Truman lives in the world set up by Chen Daohua?"
"Science fiction? The character played by Chen Daohua is a god?"
"The Truman Show, just look at the name and you will know, Truman lives in a fake world! Damn! Just hearing about it makes me want to watch it!"
"Must see!"
Unlike the niche genre films that Lin Qiu had shot before, "Truman" is a drama at first glance.
And it is a gimmicky, popular drama.
Judging from the content released, it cannot be a science fiction film.
This is very interesting. Why does Truman live in the world set up by Chen Daohua's character?
Why did a female character tell Truman that this is a fake world and let Truman escape?
Aren't you afraid of being sanctioned?
These doubts will become the motivation to watch the movie.
In this atmosphere of great expectations, there will definitely be some bad apples coming out and taking advantage of the chaos!
In addition to the usual praise of Lin Qiu, there are also doubts about the investment in the film.
[I was full of questions after watching the trailer. Where did the 1 billion investment of "Truman" go? Is it a scam? ]
[It's very likely. Judging from the content of the trailer, there is no way there is a 1 billion investment. And according to people in the industry, this "Truman" has received more than 1 billion in advertising fees. There will be many advertisements in the movie! ]
[I'm afraid Changan can't just make a quick buck and run away, right? ]
[Those who say Changan made a quick buck and ran away have a problem with their IQ. Can you watch it before questioning? Haven't you been slapped in the face enough? Ye Zhiyuan's new film has started shooting in the west, and Qu Wen's new film will start shooting soon. Can you use your cerebrum that has shrunk to the point of being gnawed by mice to think about it! ]
Many netizens who don't have the ability to think independently are easily led astray by public opinion, but after these remarks, think carefully and it makes sense.
Lin Qiu's family's Changan industry is all here.
It's thriving, what reason is there to run away?
What's more, the Renxizhou movie star Li Jie and Chen Daohua, these two people might go to make money?
...
Yanjing.
Yuyuan Villa District.
The villa is a few hundred square meters in total, which is not really a luxury house for Lin Qiu's current capital.
It is mainly a small nest for Lin Qiu and Tang Anning.
The style of the villa is more Xiazhou style, and several large bedrooms have been decorated as studios and music recording studios.
Lin Qiu and Tang Anning are both musicians.
In the past, when Lin Qiu wanted to make music, he had to go to Chang'an's music department.
But now a whole set of equipment is huge, but it saves a lot of trouble. In the future, if you want to make any OST or song, you can make it directly at home.
"Boss, I'll leave first."
"The flight ticket is booked, and the flight to Cannes will be on May 7th."
After helping the moving company move Lin Qiu's luggage into the new home, Kaohsiung wiped his sweat and said.
"Okay."
"An Ning, I'll leave too."
"Okay, Sister Ying."
After Kaohsiung left, Sister Ying, Tang An Ning's agent, naturally wouldn't stay any longer.
For singers, the influence of publicizing their love is far less than that of young idols.
However, since Tang An Ning chose to be with Lin Qiu and live together, the information about their love will not be hidden from the public for too long.
Although the confidentiality and security measures of the villa area are great, there will definitely be paparazzi squatting outside when entering and leaving.
After the two left, only Lin Qiu and Tang An Ning were left in the villa.
Tang Anning was busy, like a newlywed wife, happily decorating her new house.
Originally in Shanghai, Tang Anning had her own villa.
But she didn't live there all the time, she lived at home more often.
Facing the upcoming cohabitation life, Lin Qiu was looking forward to it, while Tang Anning was shy, and even sitting was a little nervous, fearing that Lin Qiu would pounce on her like a hungry wolf in the next moment.
The two had known each other for two or three years, and even the formal relationship had lasted for more than half a year.
Even Lin Qiu's parents had officially met classmate Tang.
It can be said that except for that step, everything that should have happened had happened.
And this step is obviously not too far away.
Evening.
In the bedroom.
Tang Anning came out of the bedroom bathroom, wearing a white cotton pajamas, with a long flowing hair casually draped over her shoulders, and her pretty face flushed, as beautiful as ever.
Just when Tang An Ning didn't know what to do, Lin Qiu directly embraced Tang An Ning's soft and slender waist and picked her up!
"Ah——"
Tang An Ning immediately buried her head deeply in Lin Qiu's arms.
Her cute and pretty face was blushing. It was obvious that Tang An Ning knew what was going to happen tonight.
Although she was already a 28-year-old woman, Tang An Ning, who had zero emotional experience, was still shy like a girl at this point, which made Lin Qiu more impulsive.
Since falling in love with Lin Qiu, Tang An Ning has been talking about this with Xu Xin. Whenever she thought of this scene, Tang An Ning was a little afraid to think about it.
When this moment really came, Tang An Ning's mind was blank, and she could only timidly shout:
"Lin Qiu..."
"I..."
"This is my first time, be gentle."
Tang An Ning's voice was a little nervous and trembling. For any woman, this night is the most precious night in her life.
Any man, when hearing such words from a beautiful woman in his arms, would be unmoved.
Not to mention Lin Qiu, who has been focusing on work since he came to this world.
Zhou Kai couldn't help asking before whether Lin Qiu liked men, because Lin Qiu was still a virgin at the age of 23.
Tonight, it was the time when a virgin became a man.
"I will."
Lin Qiu kissed Tang An Ning's red lips, and Tang An Ning immediately hugged Lin Qiu's neck bravely and said:
"Be good to me in the future."
"Don't lie to me."
"Yeah."
Click --
The bedroom door was heavily closed, blocking the moonlight and the spring scenery.
This night seemed to be much longer than the usual nights.
...
Tang An Ning, who was exhausted last night, did not wake up until noon the next day.
The first time he woke up, Tang An Ning found that Lin Qiu was not in bed.
"Hiss..."
When he got out of bed, Tang An Ning subconsciously felt some pain.
Thinking of the madness of last night, I was a little overwhelmed again.
I sneaked outside Lin Qiu's studio. Lin Qiu was already concentrating on painting and working.
Seeing Lin Qiu's handsome and serious profile, Tang An Ning showed a warm smile and felt that he could watch it for a long, long time.
...
"Your Lie in April".
This is another masterpiece of Changan Animation after "Demon Slayer", which will be officially launched in Xiazhou tonight.
This "Your Lie in April" mainly tells the story of Miyazono Kaoru, who helped Arima Kousei to regain his musical dream at the last moment of his life.
When Arima was growing up, he had a shadow in his heart because of his mother's death and could no longer hear the piano.
And Kaoru just supported his terminal illness and sick body to help Arima get out of the shadow.
Especially at the end of the story, Kaoru's body was quite dangerous, but he was still very optimistic. Facing the rest of his life, he finally held a concert with Arima and helped Arima completely get out of the psychological shadow.
Unfortunately, at the end, Xun still passed away.
This is the classic "death and separation" tear-jerking, and it is also the most classic way of love tear-jerking!
But before, in all Lin Qiu's works, there has never been such a tear-jerking work.
This "April" is a direct bombing of tear gas.
Compared with "Anohana", the tear-jerking degree is even higher, and the evaluation in the previous life is also higher.
Especially the ending part, it is really tear-jerking!
Arima's words:
"Spring is coming soon, the spring that let me meet you is coming."
"The spring without you is coming."
Lin Qiu still remembers it vividly.
The biggest regret of the whole animation is that the male and female protagonists did not express their feelings to each other face to face, but in fact they have long been in touch with each other.
If the love line wants to make people cry, death may be the best way.
If the heroine did not die, it would probably not be so touching.
"But after Meiko passed away..."
"Axun died next, and Lao Zei's reputation will probably be ruined again."
"The public opinion of being emotionally hurt will be confirmed."
Lin Qiu put away his brush and murmured.
Ahem--
Think carefully, since Lao Zei debuted, few heroines have had a good ending.
No wonder Lao Zei's fans scolded him for being a psychopath!
In the previous life, if such a situation occurred in a single work, the audience would naturally not have such doubts, but Lin Qiu concentrated on creating in this world, so he would naturally be considered a "psychopath".
The second season of "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba" is now in production.
However, Lin Qiu has not yet submitted the draft after the broadcast of "April". Before going to Cannes, Lin Qiu has to complete it.
Just thinking about it, Lin Qiu looked up and saw Tang Anning lying by the door. He smiled and put down his brush, "Are you up?"
"Yeah."
"You continue to paint. I'll cook something for you. Sister Ying bought some vegetables and put them in the refrigerator yesterday."
Tang Anning smiled.
"How is your cooking? You won't poison me, will you?"
"No! I used to cook at home. Wait, Sister Tang will show you her skills!"
Ever since she fell in love with Lin Qiu, Tang Anning has always been under some pressure. After all, Lin Qiu is so talented and as dazzling as the sun.
Although she has achieved some success in music, she can't help Lin Qiu at all.
But last night, Tang An Ning threw all the pressure behind her.
…
Since Demon Slayer was launched in February, its achievements have been constantly breaking records!
Breaking the record of Xiazhou animation broadcasts!
Breaking the record of Xiazhou animation broadcasts in various states!
It can be said that the performance of this animation has far exceeded the expectations of animation fans, and there is a trend that cannot be controlled!
"Why is Demon Slayer so popular? It doesn't make sense!"
"Oh my god, it's too amazing. It only has a score of 9.4 on Movie. How come the number of views almost crushes many anime works with a score of 9.7 or 9.8?"
"If it were in Xiazhou, we could still say that Chang'an, Lin Qiu, and Lao Zei are popular, but in Yingzhou and Mizhou, the number of views is about to break records. It's really hard to understand..."
"To be honest, I'm a fan of Demon Slayer, but I still can't imagine why Demon Slayer is so popular! Who can explain it? Is it that Lao Zei and Lin Qiu have mastered some skills?"
"This anime is definitely not as simple as making awesome. There are many awesome anime, but Demon Slayer is the only one that is so popular."
It's hard to understand.
Even fans of Demon Slayer find it hard to understand this situation.
This explosion is almost the same as the explosion of Demon Slayer in the previous life.
In the previous life, even after Demon Slayer became popular all over the world, many fans who liked Demon Slayer were dumbfounded.
Most of them thought it was good, but they didn't think Demon Slayer was so good!
...
"Why is Demon Slayer so popular?"
Tang Anning sat with Lin Qiu at the dining table in the villa and asked in confusion.
She is also a fan of Demon Slayer, but from the perspective of the audience, she didn't expect it to be like this.
"Because this era of rapid development is an era of pursuing simplicity."
Lin Qiu smiled and responded.
In this era, readers and audiences often need to hit the climax of the plot directly, rather than dragging the content and making everyone exhausted.
In the era when Lin Qiu passed away unexpectedly, Demon Slayer and One Punch Man, which were popular anime, were representatives of simplification.
The audience doesn't need to use their brains to watch it, and they will naturally enjoy it.
When Demon Slayer was being created, Lin Qiu believed that the author could not have predicted this.
It's just that the neat story handling, decisive style, and the awesome production of the UFO Club just happened to catch the bus of this era and rushed all the way to the sky!
"It seems so."
Tang An Ning thought.
In fact, whether it is music, novels, movies or animation, such a trend has appeared.
For example, in the field of novels, the emergence of cool articles is the same reason.
But this does not mean that works with rigorous structure and complex plots lose attention, but there is a shortcut.
"Is the tearful "April" you mentioned going tonight?"
"Well, let's make a bet. If you don't cry, I can do whatever you want."
"Humph, I don't bet, I know I have a low tear point!"
...
The terrifying popularity accumulated by "Demon Slayer" has made thousands of anime fans in Kyushu continue to pay attention to the anime "April" to be released by Changan next!
"This is the effect we want."
Lin Qiu smiled slightly, hiding his merits and fame.
From the moment he drew "Demon Slayer", Lin Qiu had a plan, which was to trick all the anime fans in Kyushu into killing them!
Make a lot of money on defense breaking!
This moment has finally come!
With the launch date of "Your Lie in April", anime fans across Kyushu are gearing up!
…
