My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 1097 Old friends in northern Shaanxi are like asking each other, a heart of ice is in the jade pot

PS: Please recommend tickets! Please recommend tickets!

The hills rise, the night is like a light veil covering the white snow, and the mist reflects the new buds, and there is a drizzle.

Willows and icy dew sway among the mountains, the grass is light green, and the clams and birds are singing frequently.The new seedlings in Longshang turned green leaves, and the wild vegetables with their roots were adorned with white flowers.The jade lotus has light feet, and its body is like a shopping mall with a lapel belt.The green silk hides the red glow, and Gong holds the Wu hook with his sharp teeth.
-
The above rhetorical poem originated from director Wu Gouzi Yuan Chong.

Gong Dali, who has a big peak and a big gourd figure, leans next to Wu Gouzi, who has broad shoulders, narrow waist and well-defined muscles.

It's not that a bird depends on a person, but the feeling of being together.Gong Dali has a rare wild and focused beauty. If it is really about her belief in the profession of an actor, she is unique among so many actresses.

Needless to say, Wang BB is quite 'lazy' to a certain extent, and it is quite satisfactory for the celebrity industry.As for Lin Mitao, she works very hard, but she lacks 'concentration'.

Others do not discuss.

In front of the two of them was a stack of scripts - "Pulp Fiction".

The whole script seems a bit messy in reading, as is the story style itself, especially in the narrative structure of the movie. This movie adopts an exquisite structure with nested flashbacks in a loop and multiple lines going hand in hand.

But when I read it, I may not feel how exciting this play is. The storyline of the script is not enough, and "Pulp Fiction" itself tells a vulgar story.Vulgar jokes, bizarre stories, plausible logic, dreamy fantasy.

This play is regarded as a canon by many people. In this movie, the way of telling a story is itself a story.Of course, there are some people who think this is inexplicable for pretending to be 13~
This is understandable.

Film perception itself is subjective.

But anyway, the film's artistic and commercial achievements are all there...

Naturally, from the perspective of script reading, this is quite unfriendly to actors.

At this moment, Gong Li looked at the script of "Pulp Fiction", frowned slightly, and flipped through the section of "Vincent and Marsha's Wife".The whole is strange and paradoxical.

"The film story belongs to the context of normal development, but I will adopt innovative methods in terms of film techniques and structure. This film is to a certain extent an experimental work." Wu Xiaozu said lightly.

"The "Birth of a Prefix"?" Gong Li asked curiously and expectantly.

As we all know, although it is a pity that Director Wu's film did not win any important awards, his current status in the international film world and his achievements at Cannes cannot be separated from the influence of this film.Even, in Beiying, this play was selected into the textbook together with "Suspect".

"Correct."

"Then I want to act."

"There will be conflicts in the schedule? I remember that you want to participate in "Raise the Red Lantern", right?"

"Give me a certain amount of time in the middle. I need one month to experience the lives of the characters in the play. I guarantee that I can complete the film requirements."

Gong Li glanced at Wu Xiaozu, seeing that the latter pondered for a moment and did not immediately agree, he quickly added: "Trust me, I will definitely be able to fulfill your request."

Looking at the other party's swearing eyes, Wu Xiaozu decided to give her such an opportunity after weighing in his heart.

"Okay." Wu Xiaozu agreed with a smile.

In her previous life, Gong Li's resources in Hollywood were really poor... There were no good roles for her to play.So one of the best Chinese actresses wasted her life like this.

In this life, Wu Xiaozu wanted to see if Emperor Gong could take a different route.Compared with the "frame" of Chinese male actors, actresses may have countless possibilities in Hollywood.

Gong Li is very confident in character creation.

At the same time, entering Hollywood, Wu Xiaozu's right to speak in terms of fixed roles is not as great as imagined... This does not mean that he has no autonomy, but that he needs to consider market factors more fully.

Unless a Chinese male actor is an action movie like Cheng Long, it will be difficult to carry the box office.This point is the real reality... In comparison, it is relatively easy for an actress...

Hollywood has developed for so long, and there are very few female stars who can carry the box office. Maybe she still can't make it to the front line, but she will definitely be the one that Hollywood directors will think of first when they choose Asian actresses...

"The company on Hong Kong Island is also shooting some works. If you are interested, you can choose them. Most of them are commercial films." Wu Xiaozu thought for a while, and said: "Commercial films are definitely not comparable to literary films in terms of artistry and depth. But , This does not mean that commercial films are useless.

You need to make yourself more diverse, not fixed on a certain type, otherwise it will not be a good result for your career as an actor. "

Think about it, the 'embarrassing performance' in "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" in the previous life.This is indeed derived from Gong Li's "stubborn prejudice", which made her really abrupt in this play.

In later generations, Gong Li himself regretted this very much.

In the previous life, Gong Li of this era, because of his long-term contact with the fifth generation of directors, inevitably bears the imprint of this era on his body.In this life, Wu Xiaozu has given her a lot of marks, and hopes that she can walk out of her own path as soon as possible.

-

In a small seafood restaurant named Grace in Los Angeles, three or five tables are placed in the lobby.

Chen Chong smiled and greeted friends from the mainland one after another. When he saw Gong Li, he hugged and crossed his arms, showing the friendship of a fake sister.Back then when she became famous, Gong Li was still a student.

But now, Gong Li, who has experienced "Red Sorghum" and "Ju Dou", is no less famous in the international film industry than her.

The owner of this small restaurant is from Wanwan.

Therefore, many people in Wanwan also like to have dinner here. At the same time, because the boss is inextricably linked with the film and music circles, this place has also become a gathering place for many people in the film circle.

This time, when Wu Xiaozu came here, he also attracted many people.Of course, he also brought Zhang Yimou, Gong Li, Brother Chen Kai, Gu Changwei and others to visit the pier.

"Uncle Quan—"

Wu Xiaozu greeted Hu Jinquan enthusiastically and respectfully.

"Azu, long time no see... I have been in Los Angeles for such a long time, and I didn't come to see me. Did I avoid me on purpose? I didn't know until Li Heizi called me..." Hu Jinquan reprimanded with a smile on purpose.

"My fault, my fault. The main reason is that I was really busy a while ago. When I came to a foreign country, my eyes were full of countless jobs..."

Wu Xiaozu hurriedly clasped his fists together, apologized with a smile on his face, and joked at the same time: "Uncle Xiang called me the day before yesterday and scolded me, and told me to kill you for an expensive meal..."

"Okay, this Li Heizi!"

Hu Jinquan couldn't stop laughing, and at the same time asked concerned: "How is the filming going?"

"The filming went smoothly, and it will be ready to wrap up soon."

"It is very difficult for Chinese to survive in Hollywood. It is really rare for you to have such a foundation. If it is convenient, you can take care of them properly.

Hu Jinquan smiled and said in a low voice: "The same skin color does not mean that you must be your own, and you should not be kidnapped by debts of favor and so-called relationships. It is not easy to survive in Hollywood. No matter when, Don't smash your job easily. Of course, you can control this size by yourself.

If you have any questions, you can come to me. Although Lian Po is old, he still has a bit of trouble with his old arms and legs. "

"Thank you, Uncle Quan." Wu Xiaozu nodded with a gracious smile.

"You don't have to be polite with me." Hu Jinquan patted him on the shoulder, just at this time, many people poured into the room.

For a while, Hollywood Chinese insiders, such as Wu Junmei, Chen Chong, Lu Yan and her husband Huang Xilin, Zhou Chuanjun, Fu Xiuling, etc. also came in, and everyone greeted each other. These people basically represented the influence of Chinese in Hollywood.

Mu Xiaochen, the former teacher of Beijing Film Academy, led Zhang Yimou and others to meet everyone one by one. They were already very close.Next to him, Cheng Long was very familiar with enlivening the atmosphere of the scene.

However, many people put their minds on Wu Xiaozu.

no way.

"Seven Sins" has a box office of more than 5000 million US dollars in the United States, and has already ranked first in Hollywood foreign language films.

The eyes of everyone on the scene illuminated by this result were dumbfounded.

I thought they were the same as them, but I was a member of the "Wu Piao" who came to Hollywood, and everyone's rhythm was roughly the same...at most, I had a little advantage over them.

Who would have thought.

As soon as they logged in, they overwhelmed their predictions.

This psychological expectation...

Really.

Just look at Chen Chong, who is now in high spirits, and you can understand.
