Millennium director

Tonight's Harper's Bazaar Charity Night made Liu Yifei a little disappointed.

Although it is said to be a charity event, it is actually an occasion for celebrities to socialize.

Except for the final auction session, there is nothing charity-related at other times. Celebrities hold champagne and appear in front of various capitalists and luxury brand leaders to apologize and try to please them in order to get some resources from them. .

The owners of these film and television companies and the heads of luxury brands were all enjoying the smiles and flattery of the glamorous celebrities in front of the stage with straight faces.

What's more, some second- and third-rate actors actually hooked up with well-dressed investors.

Liu Yifei saw an actress who looked familiar but couldn't remember her name. She was whispering to a senior executive of Chengtian Entertainment and exchanged contact information. It seemed that she planned to make an appointment after the show.

This scene completely destroyed her impression of the word "charity".

So much so that in the final auction session, she was not interested enough, so she called out a bid, and bought a Tissot women's watch for 300,000 yuan.

This brand recently contacted her and wanted to sign her as the spokesperson for the Greater China region. Liu Yifei raised her sign once to express her goodwill. As a result, no one in the audience competed with her. Even the entrustment arranged by Tissot itself did not raise a price. , allowing her to successfully take the watch.

Knowing that Wu Yuan's face was in front of her, no matter what she bid for, no one would compete with her. Liu Yifei also lost her mind about bidding, so she just donated 300,000 yuan, which was more than what she was paid for filming "Dragon" That's a lot.

In the end, the Harper's Bazaar Charity Night, which was more of a show than a charity, ended with a total of more than 7.53 million yuan raised, all of which was donated to the "Orphan Charity Project" under the name of the China Charity Federation.

A special fund for "Bazaar Computer Dream Realization Classroom" was set up to build a large number of well-equipped loving computer classrooms in loving children's welfare homes across the country.

This is the only thing that makes Liu Yifei feel gratified. At least the real money and silver donations have indeed been collected. It's just a show.

But she didn't expect that at the end of the charity night, there would be something wrong with the photo session.

During the final photo session, Sidan Shuangbing actually started tearing up.

The two Bingbings stood together with Zhou Xun, Jiu Zhang and others, and they were supposed to take a photo together.

As a result, Zhao Junqi appeared halfway, grabbed Xiao Ming's hand and intervened without saying anything, and also separated Fan Xiaopang, causing Li Binbin, Zhou Xun, Jiuji Zhang, Zhao Junqi, and Huang Xiaoming to stand in a row, deliberately He pushed Xiaopang Fan to the side and did not let her play with him.

Liu Yifei didn't want to get involved in this internal quarrel between the four-dan double ice. However, Zhang Ziyi's quick eyesight and quick hands caught Liu Yifei who was trying to sneak to the edge and stuffed her into the middle of the fourth-dan double ice. , the stars and the moon took a photo together.

After the event, as soon as she returned home to Xishan Villa, Liu Yifei couldn't help complaining about her desires, and she and Wu Yuan complained about tonight's experience.

"So, do you plan to go to the next one?" Wu Yuan, who was perfecting the script of "A Man Called Li Wen Decides to Die," teased without raising his head.

Liu Yifei hesitated, "Well, although it's a bit of a show, and the celebrities who participate always love to quarrel with each other, it is indeed a charity event. You can still go if you have time during your schedule."

Anyway, those fights, overt and covert fights and scheming during the group photo session were all unaffected by her.

"Oh?" Wu Yuan was a little surprised and raised his head to glance at her.

Yes, Liu Yifei should never encounter the Shoudao dress incident or the starry melee incident at the Harper's Bazaar Charity Night in this life.

With Wu Yuan's support, who would dare to neglect Liu Yifei at such an event, let alone compete with her for the C position, which would be a waste of time.

Besides, she is not the kind of character who likes to compete for the C position. She always behaves calmly and calmly. When she goes to Bazaar, she really only shoots good works and then leaves after the shooting.

"Okay, you can go if you want." Wu Yuan shrugged, "If you have nothing to do in the future, I will accompany you to see it."

He was quite interested in the female celebrities having a fight with each other and took it for fun.

"Sissi, come and read the script of my new movie." Wu Yuan waved, took Liu Yifei into his arms, held her and motioned for her to look at the computer screen.

"The script of "A Man Called Li Wen Decides to Die" has been almost polished."

"We can consider inviting actors and preparing for the crew."

"If we are not sure about the actors now, we may not be able to coordinate the schedule."

Inviting actors six months in advance to set a schedule is already a relatively urgent matter. In recent years, mainland actors have become increasingly busy with work, and there are more and more job opportunities. Some popular actors have been scheduled for the coming year.

Although this movie probably won't find any top-notch actors, preparations have to be made in advance.

Liu Yifei has read the script several times before, and the final version Wu Yuan drafted this time is only different from the previous version in some minor plots.

After scanning it roughly, she said somewhat depressedly: "Brother, there is no role suitable for me in this movie."

In "Gravity", she made a cameo appearance as an astronaut who received lunch within a few minutes of the scene.

But this time in this movie, the main characters are only the 60-year-old male protagonist Owen, and a few neighbors.

The neighbors are either middle-aged married couples or their children in their seventies, eights, and teens, and there are no young people in their 20s at all.

"Why is there no more?" But Wu Yuan didn't think so. He pointed to the role of "Li Wen's wife" in the script and said with a smile: "This role is suitable for you."

"Li Wen's wife has a cheerful personality and brings sunshine and hope of life to him who is shy and reserved."

"And she always appears in the movie in the form of memories. Li Wen often recalls the process of getting to know his wife."

"And his wife was paralyzed due to a bus accident during a trip, the fetus in her belly was miscarried, and she eventually died of cancer."

"Although this character has very few scenes, and the entire memory plot only lasts about ten minutes, the scenes are very heavy, and the character changes a lot."

"From a sunny and cheerful girl to a depressed young woman who is paralyzed at home, the characters are three-dimensional and full."

"Just right for you to give it a try."

Hearing what Wu Yuan said, Liu Yifei hesitated.

Although the role of Li Wen's wife does not have many roles, every scene is very important. It can be said that she is the person who influenced Li Wen's life. Every move she makes is related to the development of Li Wen's character.

Such an important role is still an important role in a literary film, and Liu Yifei is also a little worried that she will not perform well.

"Brother, I'm afraid that if you don't perform well, your play will be delayed." Liu Yifei said with a worried look on her face.

She knew that Wu Yuan planned to take this movie to the Venice Film Festival. If the movie was let down because of her, then she would be a big sinner.

"You're acting well, why can't you act well?" Wu Yuan disagreed and encouraged him with confidence.

He really wanted to hone Liu Yifei's acting skills.

In fact, her acting skills weren't that bad in the first place, at least compared to those top 85 stars. Her crying scenes felt broken, her literary dramas were okay, and her fighting scenes were neat and powerful.

The main problem with her is that she has no sense of life, her life experience is too poor, and she cannot play characters who are deep or emotionally rich and changeable, and who have experienced ups and downs.

But the shortcomings in this area are not irreparable. For example, the relationship with Wu Yuan and the emotional drama with Liu Yifei added a lot of experience.

When she was acting in "Those Years", she used a lot of her emotional experiences with Wu Yuan to play Shen Jiayi, which immediately made her acting skills look much more superb.

Of course, Wu Yuan didn't want her to be truly paralyzed and feel what it was like to be a paralyzed person.

"Qian Qian, don't be afraid of difficult acting. You can learn more from Teacher Wu Yanshu." Wu Yuan guided carefully: "Look at Teacher Wu Yanshu, she played a paralyzed old man in "Love", didn't she also do a lifelike job?"

"Let Teacher Wu Yanshu teach you. Under her words and deeds, I believe you can perform the feeling."

No matter how bad it is, Wu Yuan is considered to be experienced this time. With the experience of shooting the heroine in "Love", he also has a lot of experience in shooting a paralyzed character. He can personally train Liu Yifei, step by step. Teach her how to act.

In "A Man Called Li Wen Decides to Die", there are very few scenes where the wife is paralyzed, probably only a few minutes in total, unlike "Love" where she was paralyzed for most of the plot.

The role Liu Yifei wants to play is more about presenting the image of a sunny and cheerful beauty, using her sunny and cheerful side to drive the shy Li Wenwen to integrate into life and into the collective.

It was also because of her death that Li Wen gradually became withdrawn and eccentric again. Because the beautiful girl who once guided him and brought him into the world was no longer there, he retracted his outstretched feet and separated himself from the world. Isolated again.

It wasn't until a pair of new neighbors moved next door, who were as enthusiastic and cheerful as his wife. Amidst repeated "trouble", he once again tried to get out of his closed heart and integrate into this loving world.

Therefore, compared to being paralyzed, the "bright and cheerful beauty" is the most important, and Liu Yifei is much easier to act in this aspect.

She has a character that is hot on the outside and cold on the inside. As long as she shows her hot side, she can control this role well.

Wu Yuan gave Liu Yifei a comprehensive analysis of the inside story of these characters, which also gave her a lot of confidence.

"It sounds like I can really control it." Liu Yifei said uncertainly: "Then let me give it a try?"

"I have a very good relationship with Teacher Wu Yanshu, and I even ask her to have tea and go shopping with her!"

"She is definitely willing to teach me how to act!"

"Yes." Wu Yuan smiled with satisfaction and stroked the back of her head: "Sissi, be more confident in yourself. You are only 20 years old. It's not bad to have such acting skills at the age of 20."

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes and was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Her lack of confidence was not caused by Wu Yuan.

What kind of actresses are working with Wu Yuan?

After Zhang Yimou's training, the domestic and foreign best actress award went to the soft-hearted Gong Li.

Teacher Wu Yanshu, who has been acting in dramas for decades, is an experienced actor among experienced actors.

No matter how bad it is, she is also a top actress like Zhou Xun who has been praised by the industry for her spirituality since her debut. She also has a bunch of best actresses in her hands and has almost won three domestic gold medals.

With so many gems in front of her, can Liu Yifei not be under great pressure and not doubt every day that her acting skills are not up to Wu Yuan's level?

In other words, it was because a newborn calf was not afraid of tigers and she wanted to get closer to Wu Yuan that she fearlessly accepted "Your Name".

Now that I think about it, I feel that I was really brave back then. I dared to play Wu Yuan's heroine at the age of 16.

After praising herself in her heart, Liu Yifei asked with great interest: "Brother, who should Li Wen choose to play the role?"

"Li Wen," Wu Yuan muttered.

"The range of choices is not large."
