Chapter 702 Chapter 704, Wulin Wai Zhuan
Good things come hard!
These four words are not an exaggeration for Jiang Wen today.
This guy wants to be a movie director, he is almost crazy, in his own words, the feeling of dominating others is really fucking cool!
But Jiang's luck is not very good. He likes "Xu Sanguan Selling Blood", but the film regulatory department does not approve it;
Inspired by Sun Hao, he is ready to go all out with Zhang Ailing's novel "Lust, Caution", but when he happily ran to Taiwan Province to find Aunt Qiong Yao's husband, Ping Xintao, he found out that a big director named Chen from the mainland had just intercepted the copyright of this novel two hours ago.
Damn...
Even if Sun Hao is good-tempered, he burst into swearing when he and Jiang Wen were eating lamb skewers in a roadside shop.
People can't be so shameless!
Old Jiang begged and pleaded, we just sorted out the ownership of the copyright of Zhang Ailing's novel "Lust, Caution", and you bought the copyright of the novel. If you didn't know we were buying it beforehand, it would be fine, but you obviously knew it? !
These days, major newspapers have been hyping this matter [Zhang Yimou, Sun Hao, and Jiang Wen, the three major domestic directors, have decided to join forces to bring the novel "Lust, Caution" by the famous writer Zhang Ailing to the big screen].
"Brother, didn't you go to ask Lao Chen?" Sun Hao asked.
"I did!
With my bad temper, I naturally went to ask." At this point, Jiang Wen lowered his voice.
"I went to their house and was ready to slam the table with Lao Chen. We are all friends in the circle, and no one would do this.
But before I started to get angry, Sister Hong pulled me aside and said that they were also forced. In order to find investment for the movie, the couple asked the actors to be brave enough to make sacrifices. As a result, this was recorded by a certain actress.
If the recording was released, not to mention that Lao Chen wanted to keep his current airs, his reputation would probably be ruined immediately. Asking the actresses under his company to make sacrifices to attract investment..., haha, this idea was only thought of by the couple."
Hiss...
Sun Hao took a breath.
No wonder Zhang Ziyi signed Lao Chen's six film contracts in one go; no wonder Lao Chen took the initiative to help Zhang Ziyi contact other famous directors in Hong Kong and Taiwan..., it turns out that the crux is here.
"Sun Hao..."
"Hmm?"
"Lao Chen is so pitiful, how about forgetting about it?" Jiang Wen tentatively suggested.
"I don't care. It's just that I can't act in a movie.
At most, I can teach these students in the 2002 acting department in class seriously..."
"Don't!"
Before Sun Hao finished speaking, Jiang Wen got angry.
"Brother, my movie hasn't been settled yet. You, Sun Hao, can't dump me."
"Three times is the limit?"
"Lust, Caution is the second."
"Hmm..." Sun Hao was silent.
And Jiang Wen didn't speak either. He just clinked his beer glass with Sun Hao and drank it all.
This time it took longer, half an hour, and Sun Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother, the story is my own. There is no script. I am only responsible for telling the story. You will write the script for the movie."
"No problem!"
"You, me, and Lao Zhang are the three protagonists. As the producer of the crew, you can allocate the performance time. As for the three female protagonists, I suggest you use Zhang Manyu, Gong Li, and Zeng Li."
"Well..., OK!"
Seeing Sun Hao's serious words, Jiang Wen quickly ran to the bar, and then quickly ran back. When he sat down, he had a pen and paper in his hand.
"Sun Hao, tell me!"
"The story takes place in Hong Kong Island. It is said that the family of four are all unemployed vagrants..."
~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day, early in the morning
Like the head teacher Sun Hao, Lei Jiayin, who is used to morning jogging, ran more than 20 laps in the courtyard of Tongfu Inn, and then went to the street to buy breakfast panting.
A few days ago, Liu Yifei had said that at the intersection of Nanliu Road and Xianshan Road, there was an old man frying dough sticks, setting up a stall at the northeast corner of the traffic light. The old man's fried dough sticks were delicious and especially chewy!
Big head brother, if you have time, please buy me ten yuan.
Of course, there is also tofu pudding from the steamed bun shop opposite. Tofu pudding is because my mother loves it.
So, now Lei Jiayin has become Liu Yifei's exclusive delivery man. Every morning, he will put breakfast at her door.
Eh...
Who made this cheerful little girl always sleep until she is not in a good mood before getting up?
But today was an exception. Lei Jiayin, who returned to the apartment building with breakfast, saw Liu Yifei standing at the door of her house in a black T-shirt when he got out of the elevator on the fifth floor. At this moment, she had dressed herself up beautifully.
"Hey..., Xixi, why are you here so early today?"
"Big Head Brother, have you forgotten that today is the day when the TV series "Wulin Wai Zhuan" starts filming? The director requires all of us to be here before eight o'clock."
"Oh..., sorry, sorry, I almost forgot."
Lei Jiayin was a little flustered.
He stuffed the breakfast into Liu Yifei's hand and hurried upstairs through the stairs.
Damn it, I'm almost being sued by these people. If I'm late for the opening ceremony of "Wulin Wai Zhuan" again, I guess Teacher Sun Hao will be bombarded with a new round of text messages.
...
"Liu Yifei..."
"Here!"
"Tong Yao..."
"Here!"
"Tong Liya..."
"arrive!"
After taking a shower and changing clothes, Lei Jiayin hurried to the open space outside Tongfu Inn without even having time to eat breakfast.
Hmm..., not bad.
It was just Wen Zhang calling the names.
"Lei Jiayin..."
"arrive!"
Following Lei Jiayin's answer, Wen Zhang closed the roster in his hand, then faced the 40 art candidates and said with a smile:
"According to Teacher Sun's arrangement, before the official start of the Chinese opera school, the monitor of our class takes turns to take charge, and today it is my turn. Therefore, I hope everyone can cooperate with my work.
Now let me talk about everyone's actual work arrangements today when "Wulin Gaiden" is launched.
Lei Jiayin, Liu Yifei, and Zhu Yun, you are a team of three, and you are responsible for supporting the camera assistant, such as carrying the camera on your shoulder, and helping the actors as light substitutes..."
………
Watching Wen Zhang holding a meeting with the students in the class from a distance. But Sun Hao did not come forward. Instead, he and Zeng Li stood hand in hand at the entrance of the courtyard, chatting happily while looking at the pomegranate trees in the east corner.
"Haozi..."
"Um?"
"Senior Brother Jiang Wen, what's wrong?
This morning, he posted a lot of hero posts in the circle. First, he called Zhang Manyu and told him that Zhang Manyu would give him a schedule no matter what. Well, it would be from October this year to January next year.
The second call came to me. He told me, Zeng Li, I have good news for you. A movie is coming to test your acting skills. In this movie, you and Sun Hao will play a pair of vain brothers and sisters. , and the shooting location is at your home, 69 Repulse Bay Road. "
