Chapter 437: Building Relationships
"Thank you, Director Jiang, for allowing me, an unknown newcomer, to play the leading role in a blockbuster. Really, I have always been very grateful...!"
In the banquet hall of the five-star hotel, the crew of "Break the Sky" is holding a dinner to entertain the creators and guests present today.
As for the reporters from major media, they naturally received their "travel expenses" and rushed back to write articles.
Speaking of which, at this dinner party, eating was secondary. Drinking was the most important thing to connect with each other and connect with each other. After eating for a while, various toasts started.
First came the guests present, and then the actors from the "Fights Beyond the Sky" crew.
In terms of celebrity status, the biggest one in the cast is naturally Chen Daoming.
However, given his age and status, he would not take the initiative to respect Jiang Heng.
It started with Gao Yuanyuan, followed by Zhang Wei, who played the male lead. He was just a stranger and had no acting experience.
During the filming, I relied on Jiang Heng's narration and a little bit of teaching. Fortunately, I still have the talent. In addition, the appearance and temperament are in line with the original description, and I can be regarded as a perfect interpretation of the role of Xiao Yan.
At the banquet, Zhang Wei was a little shy and toasted Jiang Heng with a glass of wine. After that, he smiled innocently while watching other people's performances.
Some older people looked at it and said to themselves, this kind of character is hard to get along with in the entertainment industry, and he is not as good as those girls!
Girls really need to be bolder. Gulinazha, who plays Xiao Xun'er, her eyes turned red when she picked up the wine glass. She looked like she was crying with gratitude and called Jiang Heng his mentor and bole!
Some people joked that instead of going to Beidian to learn, the little girl should learn from Jiang Heng. She is guaranteed to learn more and be more useful than you would at Beidian.
Gu Lina said heartily, I think he must be willing to take me in!
Then I heard someone joking, saying that Director Jiang was in the filming industry and had accepted Director Guo Fan as his disciple. The acting lineage should also be passed down. If this little girl has such a promising future, she should be accepted as his disciple!
Jiang Heng just laughed and looked at Gu Linaza without saying anything.
The latter instantly felt huge pressure and hostile eyes, but when he entered the entertainment industry, who would not desperately look for opportunities and try every means to get in his way.
Without much thought, she blurted out, "Director Jiang, my ability to perform this play depends entirely on your guidance. Can I call you as a teacher in the future and ask you some acting questions?"
Jiang Heng chuckled, "Okay, but you have to think more about it yourself. If you want to come to me and ask me everything, you don't have the time!"
Liu Yifei on the side suddenly said: "If you don't understand anything, you can come and ask me. Since we are in the same company, we are also considered a family, so you are welcome."
He paused for a few seconds and then said: "Let's go back to the company's artist training class and hold a few more sessions. If you feel that your performance level needs to be improved, you can go to the class. Director Jiang is so busy, so don't disturb him with some simple questions! "
As soon as this was said, the wine table became a little cold.
Fortunately, someone soon came out to smooth things over, and the atmosphere became lively again.
Gulinazha was naturally worried, but also a little excited. After all, Jiang Heng agreed.
With this relationship, it will be more convenient to contact you in the future.
As for Liu Yifei's hostility, she didn't take it too seriously.
Zhang Tianai on the side was a little frightened. She originally wanted to follow Gu Linaza's words and recognize Jiang Heng as her teacher. What a pity, what a pity!
The meal lasted for three or four hours and was not finished until after nine o'clock in the evening.
Jing Tan said he wanted to go home to be with his parents and left first.
Jiang Heng took Liu Yifei back to their residence in the capital.
After entering the room, Liu Tianxian threw his shoes at the entrance, walked into the living room barefoot, and lay down on the sofa.
Jiang Heng stepped forward, held her chin, and said with a smile, "What, are you jealous?"
"A little bit!"
"There's nothing between us!"
"I know, but looking at her look, I'm afraid something will happen in the future!"
Jiang Heng smiled, "You are so worried. There are so many female artists signed by the company, and they all get along normally. There is nothing else!"
"Then who knows!" The young lady pouted, with an expression as if she doesn't know what's going on with you.
Jiang Heng said: "Hey, you actually dare to question me?"
Liu Yifei made a pitiful gesture, "I was wrong, uncle, I was really wrong!"
When the name of the first meeting came up, Jiang Heng's thoughts couldn't help but go back to a few years ago, and he sighed: "Time flies so fast!"
Liu Yifei on the side was also full of emotions. She immediately thought of the scene where Gulinazha wanted to recognize Jiang Heng as her teacher, and said in her heart: "Don't think that I don't know what your plan is. As long as I'm here, I won't let you succeed!"
…
But by late at night, all major entertainment media's reviews of "Fights Beyond the Sphere" have basically been released.
Xinlang Media said: "The Fight" is the most successful film and television adaptation of an online text in recent years. The entire movie has a tight plot rhythm, distinctive characters, gorgeous fighting scenes, and full of special effects. I believe that more and more classic online novels will be adapted into film and television dramas in the future...
Because of its relationship with the novel website, Penguin.com even praised the movie "Fights Beyond the Sphere", calling it "the best film work in Jiang Heng's career."
Perhaps because of the exaggeration, some netizens are not convinced. After all, no matter which of Jiang Heng's new films is released, it will be praised by the media as "the best in his career", "the best in recent years", and "recognized as the best". "Good" works are like the word "fig leaf" that later came from the media era. It is used so indiscriminately that it makes people feel disgusted.
Of course, the vast majority of viewers are still very satisfied with the content of the film.
Some of these people flocked to the "Battle Through the Heavens" forum to write about their own viewing experience and strongly recommended watching the IMAX 3D version, saying that the visual effect was super shocking, just like when Xiao Yan went to the "three-year appointment" to fight Yunlan Sect, he followed and watched.
This attracted a group of book fans to leave messages, saying that they would go to watch the movie as soon as the movie was released.
And those viewers who flocked to Douban.com mostly wrote long film reviews, citing classics and writing 1,800 words. In general, they were mainly positive reviews.
Of course, there are always black fans.
Some people also posted that "Battle Through the Heavens" was originally a meaningless online novel, but Jiang Hengyi's adaptation made the plot even worse, the side lines were cut in a mess, the plot advancement was unreasonable, and so on.
The result was naturally a scolding from Jiang Heng fans and fans of the original novel, which was quite lively.
The next day, the crew of "Battle Through the Heavens" began to promote the film in major ticket-rich cities across the country. Jiang Heng went to Shanghai with them, and then flew to Japan and the United States for the premiere.
Time passed in a flash, and soon it was the first day of the Chinese New Year in 2012.
Because it was the first day of the Chinese New Year, there would be no midnight screenings, and the audience would go out of the house after breakfast and go to the theater to watch the movie.
Except for some people who chose to watch cartoons with their children, most of the audience chose "Battle Through the Heavens" without hesitation.
After all, Jiang Heng's reputation is there, and he must not be a rip-off! (End of this chapter)
