Chapter 1371: Actor
When Lin Minjun listened to the song before, he couldn't hear what the lyrics were written very well, and he felt the feelings just by relying on the melody, but now looking at the lyrics and listening to the song, he has another feeling! That's how a good song is, never get tired of listening to it! An album, after she listened to it eight times, she still couldn't get enough. Still, while playing, she took the computer, put it on her lap, boarded the forum, and started posting. What she wants to write is her first feeling!
Fans like Lin Minjun are not one, but many, even thousands. After listening to the song, they are now excited, and naturally they want to quickly go to the forum or various websites, including the scarf, and they all start to frantically brush up on their song reviews.
As a result, all kinds of comments on Liu Yu's new album on the Internet are simply a blowout and crazy outbreaks! Among them, the evaluation of professional music critics is naturally indispensable -
"The artistic conception of "Blue and White Porcelain" is incomparable, just like a hazy ink painting in the south of the Yangtze River, like a plain note written by the window with a beautiful pen, and like a stream flowing on the bluestone in the mountain breeze, everything is so wonderful. As its name suggests, this song is just like the blue and white porcelain that is 'self-care and beautiful', washed with lead, simple and elegant, fresh and smooth. The guzheng is plucked, the tooth plate is crisp, and the pipa is murmuring, so beautiful, so Chinese style. ”
"The song "Fireworks Are Easy to Cold" should tell a story about the Northern and Southern Dynasties, called "Luoyang Jialanji", after a general met a woman by fate, the two fell in love at first sight and made a private decision for life, but at this time the general was recruited by the imperial court to fight on the border. In the years of war and chaos, the imperial capital Luo-Yang has been reduced to ruins. It was dilapidated, and in the end, the woman struggled to defend the general. When the general returned from the wind and frost to find the ancient temple of Garan, where the woman was ordained, she had already passed away. The general was told that there was a woman waiting for him all the time. The story is beautiful, and the song, too. ”
"Classical richness, beautiful melody, profound history, and wonderful artistic conception - it is no longer possible to describe the evaluation of Liu Yu's new album in simple words. I can only say, very good! Wonderful! ”
"The new Chinese style, now, we finally understand what is the real Chinese style. Before Liu Yu, there was no Chinese style! ”
All kinds of evaluations, almost all of them are praise! As long as you are a human being and have ears, you can hear how classic these songs are. In such a general trend, if you talk about how these songs are bad, it is completely grandstanding, and you slap yourself in the face, or you slap it loudly. As long as it's a music critic who wants his own reputation. I won't say anything bad in it, and in the end I just choose not to say it. As for some of these small swiping reviews, it can be completely ignored.
Liu Yu's current status. Far from being able to be defeated by such a small movement. Of course, the popularity of the new album "Blue and White Porcelain" will not end here. Instead, it continues to heat up. Because all the songs in "Blue and White Porcelain", its soundtrack is done by ancient instruments. It has also made many young people aware of the beautiful sound of ancient musical instruments.
In the past, the general trend of learning music was the piano, and then the violin and cello. But now, because of the popularity of Liu Yu's Chinese style songs, many parents have chosen to let their children learn ancient musical instruments such as guzheng, dong flute, and pipa under the strong will of their children. Even some older people have returned to music schools to learn these ancient instruments.
Liu Yu's Chinese style songs are on fire, even with ancient musical instruments! This phenomenon is naturally amazing, and there are many jealous people, but even if they are jealous, they don't dare to make any moves. Under such a general trend, even a spokesman for a national Ministry of Culture said that the current entertainment industry needs Chinese singers like Liu Yu to promote our traditional culture. At this moment, all the media have become Liu Yu's propagandists, and in order to cater to the attitude above, they began to frantically pursue Liu Yu's new songs.

The final income of "The Assassin Emperor" shocked everyone, although everyone expected that this movie would achieve a very high box office, but no one expected that it would be able to break through the one billion and snatch back the first place in the box office list of Chinese films from a Hollywood movie!
In the face of such excellent results, Zhang Yimou also specially called Liu Yu to show his gratitude, because the most brilliant thing in the whole movie is the "Blood Emperor" Yang Guang! After careful scientific analysis, relevant institutions said that the role of "Yang Guang" has increased the box office of at least 300 million for "The Emperor of Assassins"!
Zhang Yimou himself also knows very well that if it weren't for Liu Yu, the role of "Yang Guang" would never be so classic, and if you change an actor, you will definitely not be able to interpret the elegant domineering and noble coldness of "Blood Emperor"! Even, Zhang Yimou privately recognized a saying on the Internet - Yang Guang achieved "The Emperor of Assassins"!
In addition to thanks, Zhang Yimou also invited Liu Yu to Cannes - "The Assassin Emperor" was shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival! Zhang Yimou was originally the No. 1 director in China, and his career has won numerous awards, although "The Assassin Emperor" was positioned as a commercial film by him, but because of Liu Yu's passionate performance, it turned out to be very artistic. Lao Zhang couldn't bear it, so he sent the film directly to Cannes, and as a result, "The Assassin Emperor" was really shortlisted and won two nominations, one for Best Picture and the other for Best Supporting Actor by Liu Yu.
Although he was not nominated for Best Director, Zhang Yimou's tone was full of excitement, "Liu Yu, do you believe it?" We have had such a great success! We did it! was shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival, which is known as 'art first' with a commercial film...... Hahaha! ”
After laughing wildly for a minute, Zhang Yimou became worried again, "Now that I am shortlisted, what if I don't win the award?" I think you definitely have the strength to win the shortlisted films, but what if the judges give bad reviews because they are commercial films? Will it affect our winning situation......"
I can't complain that Zhang Yimou is worried, if it is a competition for pure art films, then he will not be afraid of anyone. But the original positioning of "The Assassin Emperor" was a commercial film, although it was full of humanistic and philosophical meaning because of the role of "Yang Guang". But it is always mixed with a strong commercial flavor, and I am afraid it will not please those judges who like pure art films!
Liu Yu really couldn't stand Zhang Yimou's chatter. It was hard for him to imagine that Zhang Yimou, who was so cold on the outside, was actually such a broken-mouthed person. He couldn't help but interrupt his self-pitying words: "Do you know that if you release these words, how many people will be so jealous that they will take a kitchen knife to cut you?" ”
Zhang Yimou also sensed that his worries were a little too much, and laughed awkwardly twice. Liu Yu immediately began to persuade him: "Okay, now that we have been shortlisted, it means that our efforts have been certified, and next, can we really succeed...... I'm lucky. Lose my life! ”
Zhang Yimou couldn't help but sigh and said: "Liu Yu, your attitude is so open-minded!" ”

The Cannes Film Festival is approaching, and the small Europa city of Cannes is not only full of world-class stars, but also many fans who come to chase them. For example, some domestic tour groups have specially opened a special tourism project for the Cannes Film Festival, which is to travel to Cannes during the Cannes Film Festival, and then achieve the purpose of chasing stars.
After Liu Yu arrived in Cannes, he soon joined Zhang Yimou. This time, the main actors of "The Assassin Emperor" are all here, and some supporting roles are no exception. Previously, they were not eligible to participate in such a film festival. This kind of international A-level film festival, if there are no shortlisted works, then only some of the top stars in China are likely to be eligible to attend. And this time, it was nominated for Best Picture with "The Emperor of Assassins". The entire crew is qualified to walk the red carpet.
Not to mention Liu Yu, he is the real protagonist of the two nominations of "The Assassin Emperor", the focus of all the media. This time, "The Emperor of Thorns" has not yet won the award even if it is only a nomination. That's also out of the limelight in China. The prosperity of the domestic film industry in recent years has not been good, and there are many works. It's a pity that there are very few high-quality products, and how many blockbusters are in the name of entering Orcas and entering the world. In the end, it received countless "bad movie" evaluations and ended gloomily.
The Cannes nomination for "The Thorn Emperor" has been six years since the last nomination, and a salted fish turnaround finally came six years later, so how can it not make the domestic media and film critics excited? is also because of a Cannes nomination, some media and film critics who did not have a very good evaluation of "The Assassin Emperor" immediately changed their tone and began to praise "The Assassin Emperor" after the Cannes inclusion list was announced.
On the day of the official arrival of the Cannes Film Festival, the big names gathered, the stars were shining, and the media reporters on both sides of the red carpet held long guns and short guns, and the magnesium lights flashed. If it weren't for the stars who are used to this kind of scene, I'm afraid they would have to dazzle directly! This grand occasion is also a matter of course, the world's three major international film festivals, once a year, and the gold content is extremely high, will naturally attract the attention of countless people.
Sitting in a Lincoln extended luxury car, Liu Yu wore a simple and elegant dress, slowly got off the car, and all the reporters quickly focused their cameras on him, and then filmed wildly. Liu Yu smiled and stepped out of the car, his every move became a picture scroll of his own, and his figure seemed to be outlined by the most delicate fine brushwork. At this moment, his figure is frozen, and his beauty also transcends skin color and nationality, making everyone surrender.
Liu Yu's dress today can be described as full of Chinese style, very similar to Yang Guang's blood-colored casual clothes in "The Assassin Emperor", but with some more fashion elements that echo the aesthetics of the Europa. This little change immediately made many media reporters, including celebrity fans, instantly fall for the ancient charm of his thousand-year-old civilization.
Liu Yu walked on the red carpet with the most perfect curvature smile, stopping to take pictures from time to time according to the requirements of the reporters around him. He is the kind of beautiful man who has no dead ends from all angles, so no matter which direction he shoots from, he is extremely perfect, and these reporters will certainly not let go of such a good opportunity. It is also because of the enthusiasm of these media reporters that Liu Yu's speed on the red carpet has slowed down again. Later, in order not to delay the people behind, Liu Yu had to directly ignore the requirements of some people, and quickly walked inside.
Liu Yu's sitting position is naturally with the crew of "The Emperor of Assassins". Because "The Assassin Emperor" was nominated for the highest award of Best Picture this time, the seats arranged are also very good and relatively high. After Liu Yu sat down. I saw some big-name stars sitting in front and back, many of whom were at the level of actresses and actors. Internationally well-known big-name stars. When they saw Liu Yu, they also stood up and waved at him very kindly. Some of them had enthusiastic personalities, and they stood up directly and gave Liu Yu a warm hug across the chair.
Liu Yu's head flashed, and he simply seized this opportunity and pulled them to take a selfie together, these big names agreed to Liu Yu's request without any arrogance, and also asked Liu Yu to take a few more photos with great interest. After taking the photo, Liu Yu directly transmitted it to his neck, which was updated in real time. After sending the scarf, he turned off his phone. Naturally, I didn't know that the scarf exploded because of a few of his selfies.
The festival opened quickly, and the process was a traditional series, and it took several days to complete it step by step, and finally it was time to present the awards.
"Next, Best Supporting Actor." The female guests presenting the awards on the stage smiled slightly. Her smile flashed on the big screen in the back, and as the female guests read out the names of the nominees one by one, the photographer was ready to find the presence of everyone in the venue, and then their faces fell on the big screen in front of them. Finally, it is frozen in a small grid.
Among the people who competed with Liu Yu this time, there were senior veteran actors who have been famous for many years but have never won awards, and there are also gold medal supporting actors who won awards and won soft hands. And Liu Yu is the youngest among these nominees. It is also one of the least qualified. Therefore, when the media speculated on the results of the award in advance, everyone agreed that Liu Yu was the least likely to win the award.
But the likelihood is low. Just because it's not possible. The female guest on stage took out the card from the envelope, and the name of the winner was written on it! When a female guest sees the name on the card. He raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Oh! The name...... It's a bit of a surprise! ”
The scene was suddenly boiling. Accidentally? What do you mean? Liu Yu narrowed his eyes...... Does this mean that he is the one who won the award?!
The female guest smiled slightly. Then, slowly pronounce the name on the card - "Yu? Liu! ”
The applause at the scene was thunderous, Liu Yu exhaled slightly and stood up slowly. As he got up, the applause below became more and more enthusiastic. Among them, the most exciting is the crew of "The Emperor of Thorns", although this award belongs to Liu Yu, but no one can deny that this is the glory of the entire crew! At this moment, they are honored!
What's more, before they came to Cannes, although they all joked that they were going to kill the Quartet, but no one knew that there were many dark horses this year, and the possibility of winning the award for the film "The Emperor of Assassins" with a strong commercial atmosphere was not very great, so they all knew it in their hearts and did not have much hope. But who knows, it was an upset!
Liu Yu came to the stage all the way, and his mind was very calm. After receiving the trophy, he hugged the female guest who presented the award heavily, and after the female guest gave up the stage, at this moment, the stage belonged to him alone. Liu Yu stood in front of the microphone, the corners of his mouth hooked into a charming smile, "Actually, I didn't expect that I would stand here today. Liu Yu opened his mouth to tell a lie, using Chinese, "Although I debuted as an actor, I did not achieve good results, and later changed my career to become a singer, but became famous!" It's just that I still have a soft spot for acting, and I have never relaxed my practice in this area. When I took over the film "The Assassin Emperor", many people questioned me, thinking that I couldn't be perfect in both areas, but now, I did! I did it! The second time, he used English, and very hard, and waved his fist "excitedly".
The noble and elegant Liu Yu also has such an action, which is really rare, and many people present were also infected by his emotions, waving their fists and shouting "I did it"! Liu Yu couldn't help laughing, there were already people reminding him of the time, Liu Yu naturally couldn't delay, and hurriedly straightened his expression, "Okay, I hate the time limit, I can't let me play to my heart's content." Liu Yu shrugged his shoulders, causing a chuckle from the people present, "Speaking of thanks, it is naturally indispensable for the crew to work together, although this award is held by me, but behind this trophy, there is the effort and participation of each of you." Liu Yu raised the trophy and waved it in the direction of the crew.
Several actors in the crew of "The Assassin Emperor" couldn't help crying, and even Zhang Yimou couldn't hold back his red eyes. Yes, in order to stand here today, for such an achievement, how much effort they have put in day and night, but this moment is undoubtedly glorious and affirmative to them. For this moment, no matter how much effort they put in before, it was worth it.
After Liu Yu stepped down, as soon as he returned to his position, he attracted a warm embrace from the people around him, and he shared his happiness with everyone with a smile. Happiness is meant to be shared, and if you are alone behind closed doors, then it is not happiness either.
Everyone in the crew of "The Assassin Emperor" is very excited now, they didn't have much hope for the award before, but as the final award approaches, they are getting more and more nervous, and they even have some bold expectations - maybe, they can upset to the end this time and win the best picture? Although the Best Supporting Actor is also very good, most of this award still belongs to Liu Yu, and if their crew really wins the Palme d'Or, which is exclusive to Best Picture, it will be a real affirmation to everyone.
As time passed, the final grand prize announced, the Palme d'Or in Cannes, the most valuable prize, was finally announced! The award presenter standing on the stage is also a veteran actor, a famous actor, and also the one who has won the most Cannes actress trophies, and he also won an Orcas actor trophy, a real superstar.
Although this is old, his hair has turned gray, but his charm has not disappeared with time, but has become more charming in the polishing of time, this style is not "handsome" can be supported, which also includes a man's self-confidence and his views and actions on everything around him, which belongs to the charm of a mature man, just like a cellar of fine wine, it takes time to precipitate to slowly burst out of the charming fragrance.
On stage, the charismatic king has already begun to announce the nominations for this award. The films nominated this time are also very good, as far as everyone in the crew of "The Assassin Emperor" is concerned, the quality of other films is not inferior to "The Assassin Emperor", and even because of the subject matter, it is more important in terms of artistry. It was only because of such an unpopular person as Liu Yu that they had a glimmer of extravagant hope.
As the name of "The Assassin Emperor" was read out, everyone in the crew applauded desperately, with hopes and happy smiles on their faces. The King of Heaven picked up the envelope and looked around. As is customary, he did not make a direct announcement, but casually said a few words to ease the tense atmosphere.
This king is also a very humorous old gentleman, and the originally tense atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed in his casual jokes, and a little smile appeared on the nervous faces of everyone in the crew of "The Assassin Emperor", which was not as tense as before. When it was finally time to make the announcement, the king took out the card from the envelope, looked at the words on it, and then read softly: "The winner of the Cannes Palme d'Or this time is ...... "White Ribbon"!" The audience burst into applause.
didn't hear the name in hope, everyone in the crew was instantly lost, and even a few young actors with low psychological tolerance cried - well, Liu Yu, a "young" actor, was an exception, and he patted Zhang Yimou's shoulder next to him comfortingly.
"It's fine." Zhang Yimou shook his head with a smile and applauded the award-winning crew, "They are also great, they deserve it." ”
When the awards ceremony finally ended, the entire Cannes Film Festival came to an end. However, domestic newspapers and online media have just exploded.
"After six years of glory, Liu Yu won the Cannes Best Actor."
""The Emperor of Assassins" Liu Yu became the youngest actor in China at the age of 27."
"Liu Yu's fame is revealed, counting the past that everyone doesn't know."
"Liu Yu ascended the throne of Cannes actor and talked about the woman behind the male god."
“……”
There are countless topics like this, anyway, everyone is trying to attract attention. If these topics are placed on others, they may be scoffed at, but when they are placed on Liu Yu, everyone takes it for granted, and everyone really thinks it is strange when you say that it is bland! Anyway, in a short period of time, the news that Liu Yu won the Cannes Best Actor swept the entire land of China, as long as people who pay attention to the Internet and TV, they quickly knew the news! (To be continued.) )
