Huayu since 1980

Chapter 284 Bertolucci Arrives in Beijing

In the cafeteria of the guest house, Wu Jianye had lunch with everyone.

There are three large wooden barrels in the cafeteria on the first floor. Wu Jianye took a closer look, okay, the first one contains sticky and yellowish rice, and the second one contains no oil. Xing's Chinese cabbage, the third one is simpler, pickled pickles
This is the food of the classic TV series "Dream of Red Mansions". After 30 years, if you dare to think about it, the leading actors must be fried.

"Dean, it's a bit too much, it's not as good as the food in our college cafeteria!"

Seeing such food, Wu Jianye, who has always boasted of being a glutton, couldn't even begin to eat.

Cheng Yin nonchalantly made himself a spoonful of rice, some cabbage, and a small dish of pickles: "I'm short of money."

Wu Jianye curled his lips, and knew that if he didn't get some for himself now, he would offend others, so he just ordered some casually, which was enough for one or two mouthfuls, so he followed Cheng Yin and others to the dining table, the long dining table , Just like the school cafeteria in this era.

Wu Jianye glanced at it, and saw Le Yun pouting over there, poking her lunch box with a spoon. Obviously she had no appetite, and so did the other actors.

"Dean, no matter how hard it is, it won't be like this!"

Cheng Yin's meal was delicious, and he said with a smile, "That's not bad. In the early years, our filmmaking was not as good as this one. I thought we were all like you. When I went there to make a film, I could still do it." Let the restaurant deliver food to you specially!"

Wu Jianye quickly said: "Dean, you can't say that. I delivered the meals strictly according to the meal quota of the experimental studio."

"Then how did I hear that someone made up for the lack of food money out of their own pockets later!" Cheng Yin laughed.

Wu Jianye said: "It's all small things!"

After the two laughed and quarreled, Cheng Yin suddenly said earnestly: "Xiao Wu, don't have any thoughts when I call you here this time. I really see that the living conditions of the crew are too difficult. I just thought about whether I can make some contributions to the crew!"

In another time and space, Wu Jianye often chatted with some friends in the entertainment industry. From their mouths, Wu Jianye knew a strange phenomenon in their circle, that is, the poorer the crew, the easier it is to appear. Boutique.

In terms of movies, for example, Wu Jianye's "The Wandering Earth" was a big hit just before his rebirth. The crew was so poor that they were about to buy trousers. As a result, the movie sold directly into the top three domestic box office records.

The same goes for the movie "Wolf Warrior".

There are even more TV dramas, such as "Princess Concubine's Promotion", which is known as the poorest crew in history, which is a classic among early web dramas, but watching their scenes, tsk tsk.
That is shameful and hot eyes.
Wu Jianye once teased them that if they want to make achievements, they have to sell the iron and mortgage the house in order to produce high-quality goods, but the other party curled their lips and made money easily. Who would do such a stupid thing.
Wu Jianye nodded and said, "It's really difficult, how about this, I personally donate 1 yuan, and it's to improve the food for everyone!"

How much is the actor's salary for filming the TV series "A Dream of Red Mansions"? The highest one is Jia Baoyu's actor Ouyang Fenqiang, 80 yuan per episode, and 2000 yuan after filming. Daiyu is 60 yuan per episode
1 yuan helped the entire crew save the salaries of several main actors, Cheng Yin was naturally happy.

"real!"

"Do I dare to quarrel with you all the time? How about this, I'll have someone send the money over in the afternoon!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.

1 yuan is very important to the crew, and to Wu Jianye, that's all.
Later, Wang Fulin and Ren Dahui also knew the news, and immediately expressed their gratitude to Wu Jianye.

After dealing with them, Wu Jianye was also ready to leave.

"Angkor, are you ready to leave?"

Le Yun came to Wu Jianye's side.

"Yeah, I also disturbed Director Cheng, Director Wang has been here for a long time, it's time to go back!"

"Angkor, now that you are a great director, let me participate in your film shooting if you have a chance in the future!" Le Yun asked cheerfully.

It's not that she has any ideas, the main reason is that all the actors now yearn for filming more than TV dramas.

Later, Le Yun gave up her role in "A Dream of Red Mansions" for a lesser-known movie, and the same is true for Wang Yue, who is currently filming "Journey to the West".

Everyone yearns for the big screen!
"Okay, I will definitely look for you if I have the chance, but you have to study hard in the crew. This is a masterpiece of CCTV. After the filming is over, it will definitely cause a sensation in the whole country. By then, you will be a well-known actor in the country!"

Wu Jianye said.

For Le Yun's future experience, Wu Jianye still sympathizes very much. He was deceived by an old scumbag in Xiangjiang. She has starred in quite a few [-]-rated films, if possible, Wu Jianye still doesn't want her to follow the old path.

So I specially reminded Le Yun.

Le Yun nodded happily, and then continued to ask: "Angkor, our crew will be on vacation in the future, can I go and play with you?"

"Of course!" Wu Jianye laughed.

After Wu Jianye left, a group of people surrounded Le Yun, all asking her about Wu Jianye.

"Ayun, what did you just say to Director Wu?"

"It's nothing, I just told Angkor that he will open a new play in the future, and he can ask me to act in it!" Le Yun said pretending to be reserved.

Girls at this age are still a bit vain, and Le Yun also wants to show that she is very familiar with Wu Jianye in front of everyone.

"Wow, Ah Yun, you have such a good relationship with Director Wu!"

"Yeah, you don't know, director Wu took great care of us when we were filming "Under the Bridge"!" Le Yun said proudly.

After leaving the crew, Wu Jianye asked Zhao Lei to send someone to send 1 yuan to the crew. According to the current prices, 1 yuan would be enough for them to officially start filming.

In the days that followed, it fell into peace again. Wu Jianye would occasionally go to school to attend classes. In his spare time, he would fiddle with the script of "New Dragon Inn", living a very chic life.

But this peaceful day only lasted for a week.

Bertolucci has come to Yanjing.

Ning Ying came to Yanjing with Bertolucci and found Wu Jianye.

"Old Wu, long time no see!" Ning Ying appeared very suddenly, and hurriedly came to Wu Jianye's office.

Wu Jianye was slightly taken aback, "When did you return to China?"

"I just came back, I came back with my teacher!" Ning Ying said proudly.

"Director Bertolucci has also come to Yanjing!"

"Well, my teacher has always wanted to shoot a movie about Huaxia, and this time I came to Huaxia to discuss this matter with China!" Ning Ying laughed.

Wu Jianye: "Really, then tell Director Bertolucci that I will treat him to dinner tonight!"

Ning Ying covered her mouth and smiled slightly: "I'm afraid it's impossible tonight. The Ministry of Culture has specially prepared a welcome party for my teacher!"

"Oh, so that's the case, then look for another chance!"

Just as Wu Jianye finished speaking, his office phone rang.

"Yes. I see!"

After putting down the phone, Wu Jianye showed a wry smile: "It seems that we really have to have dinner together tonight!"

"Call from above!"

"Ok!"

As an internationally renowned director, Bertolucci came to Huaxia and was warmly received by Huaxia. As the first director of a domestic film to win the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival, the Ministry of Culture naturally wanted him to participate in this evening's event. The reception is over!
"By the way, my teacher is here this time, but I sincerely want to cooperate with you!" Ning Ying said suddenly.

Wu Jianye, who was packing his books, was taken aback for a moment, and said with a smile, "Didn't I say that I won't sell the copyright of "The Last Emperor"!"

Ning Ying smiled proudly: "If the higher-ups talk, you can't just sell it, right?"

A gloomy look flashed across Wu Jianye's eyes, and then he said with a smile: "This is my personal matter, the higher-ups can't force me to sell my own copyright!"

As a student going abroad, Ning Ying naturally understood the domestic situation, and said with a smile: "It's really uncertain, but you don't have to worry too much, what my teacher hopes is to adapt the French writer André Marr Luo's novel "The Fate of Man."

Wu Jianye shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm not worried, no one else can take what I don't want to sell!"

When Ning Ying wanted to say something, Wu Jianye said again: "Let's go, I have to go home and change!"

Yanjing Hotel!

Generally, when foreign guests come to Huaxia, they will arrange a reception dinner here. This is not the first time Wu Jianye has come here. Seeing the people around Bertolucci, Wu Jianye raised his eyebrows slightly , why is he here?
Sun Jiarui!
This person who has been put into the sidelines in the input and output company, did not expect that he would appear in Wu Jianye's vision again.

Sun Jiarui in the crowd also saw Wu Jianye, his eyes flashed fiercely, and then immediately put on a smile like a spring breeze, and at the same time, he took the initiative to greet him.

"Oh, isn't this our Director Wu? I didn't expect Director Bertolucci and the leaders to mention Director Wu just now. Director Wu appeared immediately!"

Looking at Sun Jiarui's enthusiastic smile, no one would have thought that there would be so much filth between the two of them.

"What did Manager Sun say? I just came here after receiving a call from the leader. Everyone knows that Zhu Xinzhuang is still a bit far from here!" Filled in.

"Wu, we meet again!" Bertolucci looked very happy after seeing Wu Jianye!
"That's right, after Shuicheng, I didn't expect to meet so soon!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.

Sun Jiarui said beside him: "Director Wu, this time Bertolucci wants to come to China to make a movie, by the way, you don't know yet, what our leaders mean is to let Director Bertolucci adapt the movie you wrote. "The Last Emperor"!"

Sun Jiarui's voice was deliberately loud. Many people were paying attention to this side. Some leaders held their own identities and would not come over to greet Wu Jianye, but they were all looking at Wu Jianye.

At this time, Wu Jianye is also a member of the top management in China. Everyone still appreciates the director who won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival. Now they also hope to promote the cooperation between Wu Jianye and Bertolucci. Think about it, the strong cooperation between famous foreign directors and famous Chinese directors is also a very good thing for Huaxia.

So today when Bertolucci came to China and said he wanted to shoot a movie in China, after coming up with two options, the high-level immediately suggested that Bertolucci shoot the movie "The Last Emperor"!
At the end of the trip to Venice, Sun Jiarui naturally knew that Wu Jianye didn't want to sell the adaptation rights, but now he doesn't believe that if he tells this matter in front of so many people, can he not give it to Wu Jianye? The face of the leaders, if this is the case, Sun Jiarui will be happier.

The current situation is that no matter whether Wu Jianye sells the copyright of "The Last Emperor", Sun Jiarui has the meaning of attacking Wu Jianye.

Wu Jianye smiled as usual: "Isn't today director Bertolucci's welcome banquet? Why are you talking about work?"

Seeing that Wu Jianye didn't answer, Sun Jiarui twitched his mouth slightly, but he didn't say anything. Now that his goal has been achieved, Wu Jianye's answer now, in his opinion, is nothing more than a plan to delay the attack, but is it useful?
After Sun Jiarui left, the leaders came over, but they didn't say anything about it, they just told Wu Jianye simply to ask him to accompany Bertolucci. See Ye who said these things.

"Wu, I must emphasize that I like your novel "The Last Emperor" very much. If possible, I really hope to adapt this novel!"

After the leaders left, Bertolucci stood beside Wu Jianye and said.

Wu Jianye smiled and said: "I'm really sorry, Director Bertolucci, I also said that I will not sell the copyright of this novel!"

Bertolucci showed a look of incomprehension: "Why, Wu, if you want to adapt this novel, the money spent is definitely astronomical. As far as I know, it is impossible for Huaxia to spend so much money. You made a movie like this!

It will be different if you give me this novel, I can contact Hollywood and European film companies immediately, they will be very happy to cast this film! "

Wu Jianye said with a smile: "We have an old saying in Huaxia, which is that there are no absolutes in the world, so let's forget about this matter!"

"What are the two great directors talking about? They are so happy!" At this moment, a leader finally came over.

"Oh, it's nothing, just chatting casually!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.

"Xiao Wu, everyone can see your contribution to the country. We have also watched your "The Last Emperor". It is very suitable for making a movie. Bertolucci is our old friend in China. We are very relieved to hand over this movie to him!"

Just when Wu Jianye was about to say something, he suddenly saw a panicked Zhang Huijun running over.

"What's wrong?" Wu Jianye asked quickly when he saw this.

"The old dean has passed away!"
