Chapter 929: The Grandmaster



Looking at Yue Shao and the other three who were full of energy, Zhou Yiyang felt a huge pressure.

For the four of them, this is the most important answer, and isn't it the same for him?

As an artist, the most difficult thing is never to become popular upon debut, but to be able to continuously produce excellent works in the subsequent development.

Although Zhou Yiyang has no shortage of works, he still needs to slowly select the most suitable ones for the four of them.

During this time, Zhou Yiyang plans to finish filming Tang Yue's movie first.

Su Yin also went to the set, but this time not as an actor, but as Zhou Yiyang's assistant.

"Teacher Su, are you going to be a director in the future?"

The staff were very happy to see Su Yin. They gathered around Su Yin with smiles on their faces.

"I think it's quite interesting. I might try it." Su Yin thought that when she has free time in the future, she can make a movie with Zhou Yiyang.

Zhou Yiyang smiled and said, "Come here, I'll teach you how to take pictures step by step."

Tang Yue, who was not far away, listened to their conversation, resisted the urge to complain, and looked at the script silently.

The plot of "The Grandmaster" is actually not complicated. As for the character, Tang Yue believes that she has understood Gong Er.

But many times, understanding is one thing, but making it look good and being liked by the audience is another.

At this time, Tang Yue has to face a very important scene, her competition with Ip Man.

This scene is not only a fighting scene, but also a literary scene, and an extremely difficult one at that.

Because silence is better than words here, Tang Yue needs to express emotions through her actions and eyes instead of relying on lines.

This was a huge challenge for Tang Yue, but she found that she quite liked such challenges.

After taking a deep breath, Tang Yue silently walked in front of the camera.

The moment Tang Yue looked up, Su Yin couldn't help but laugh. She gently touched Zhou Yiyang with her hand and said softly:

"I knew Tangtang could do it. The look in her eyes is no longer Tang Yue, but the legendary Gong Er."

Listening to Su Yin's words, Zhou Yiyang smiled and nodded, then continued, "Well, you're right. Tang Yue has now found the essence of this role. It seems that you have communicated with her a lot in private?"

"Not bad." Su Yin smiled and blinked. "This is all Tangtang's own understanding. I just shared some of my own thoughts."

As Tang Yue got the hang of things, the filming process of the entire movie went much faster.

Even though Zhou Yiyang had extremely high requirements for the camera, he finally completed the filming before Yue Shao's last domestic tour.

Zhou Yiyang only spent two days editing the film.

Because of his pursuit of perfection, there were not many shots that needed to be deleted.

However, Tang Yue was a little surprised when she saw the final running time: "Brother Yang, this movie is actually two and a half hours long. Isn't it too long?"

Zhou Yiyang turned his head, looked at Tang Yue seriously, and said:

"Then you need to be mentally prepared. Basically, we can't count on this film's commercial success. In other words, our goal is to win awards."

"I don't care." Tang Yue nodded. "We already have enough high-grossing movies. For me, my commercial value doesn't need to be proven anymore."

Zhou Yiyang smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's good to have such awareness."

He then invited some industry bigwigs, top actors and directors, as well as some film critics to a special screening of "The Grandmaster".

At this time, Ning Mang was standing beside Zhou Yiyang, rubbing his hands, showing an excited and expectant expression.

After seeing this, Zhou Yiyang couldn't help but smile at him:

"You look quite excited!"

"This is the art film you've been waiting for, Old Zhou. We've been waiting for it for so long!"

As he spoke, he sat up straight and stared at the screen intently.

As the name of "The Grandmaster" appeared, the originally noisy cinema immediately became quiet.

When the film critic saw that the director, screenwriter, and cinematographer were all Zhou Yiyang, he couldn't help but joke:

"With this lineup, this year's best film can be booked."

"That's not necessarily true. Rumor has it that Zhou Yiyang is going to make a movie for Su Yin this time. So he's going to fight himself."

At this moment, Tang Yue was sitting with Su Yin. She asked softly:

"Will my movie not be highly rated in the end?"

"How is that possible?" Su Yin gently patted Tang Yue's face and continued, "Tangtang, you're overthinking it! It's not like I haven't seen your movie before, the quality is quite high! Just wait, after the movie is over, everyone will definitely stand up!"

At this time, Lin Xuaner and Wang Xingrui hurried in.

Tang Yue looked at the two of them and laughed, "Have you finished practicing the song?"

During this period, the two of them were preparing for their new album. Zhou Yiyang gave them the songs, and they practiced hard.

When they saw Tang Yue again, they both felt that the other had lost a lot of weight.

At this time Zhou Yiyang smiled and said to them:

"You've all lost weight, which means you've been practicing very hard recently. That's a good thing."

Two and a half hours is probably too long for an ordinary movie, and many people will want to go to the bathroom halfway through watching it.

But it's just right for a movie like "The Grandmaster".

When the movie ended, Tang Yue never expected that the entire audience stood up and started applauding, and it lasted for five minutes.

This is almost the best and most pertinent evaluation given by everyone on the quality of this movie.

Tang Yue was a little excited. She even heard comments about herself from many people in the front row, and they were all positive comments.

The film critic who had previously complained that she was just a vase was now chatting with his friends:

"Tang Yue has improved so much that I almost didn't recognize her. I never expected her acting skills to improve so much."

"Yes, the look in her eyes throughout the whole performance completely brought the character of Gong Er to life. I always thought she was an actress with average talent, but now it seems that she is actually more talented than many people!"

"And her fighting skills are so good, she didn't use a body double for many of the shots, but did them herself! These days, actresses with martial arts skills like her are becoming increasingly rare!"

Tang Yue grabbed Su Yin's hand and said excitedly:

"So Xiao Xiao Su, do I have hope now?"

Su Yin smiled at her and nodded: "I think your chances of winning the title this year are very high. Let's wait and see after the movie is released!"
