This entertainment industry is a bit strange

Chapter 269 You are definitely a genius!

Before leaving Yanjing, Yang Rui specifically asked about the courtyard house.

Jiang Wen is very clear about this.

"It's hard to say, but it's easy to say."

"For you, money should not be a problem at all, the rest is a matter of qualifications."

"If you want to get that note, there are several paths, but I suggest you take the most direct and most upright path—as an outstanding talent, take the initiative to be absorbed by Yanjing."

"It's actually not difficult for you. The most important thing is to gain international fame and earn some foreign exchange for the country. As long as you can do these two things, it's not a big problem."

So after going around and around, do you still have to go abroad to collect awards in the end?

But it's a coincidence that this matter may be difficult for others, but it will be much less difficult for Yang Rui.

Not only because he is a badass, he has a lot of classic works in his head, but also because he has a lot of big shots in his circle of friends-such as Zhang Yimou, Jiang Wen, Gong Li, etc., these people are already regulars at foreign A-level film festivals. Now that he is a judge, his weight in the judges' team is not light.

One day he really wants to go out to participate in the exhibition to compete for awards, these friends can help.

There are people in the court who are good at handling things!

After leaving Yanjing, Yang Rui flew directly to Mingzhu City to find Zhang Yimou.

When I saw Lao Zhang, he was busy in the editing studio.

"House of Flying Daggers" has entered the final round of editing and adjustments, and it is almost a frame-by-frame digging out details, which is simply torture.

Lao Zhang's eyes were obviously a little bloodshot, and he knew that he had been suffering a lot recently, but he was still full of energy, and there was no sign of fatigue.

Yang Rui also had to admire this exuberant energy.

"Come on, come on, your boy came just in time." Zhang Yimou directly pulled Yang Rui over and pushed him on the chair, "We are making final adjustments, please show me, do you have any suggestions?"

Yang Rui was speechless, if he had known, he would have waited for him to come back after get off work!
But the matter has come to this point, and he can't refuse.

Besides, he is pointing at Lao Zhang to do things, so give it a try!

After some politeness, the assistant next to him began to pull the film frame by frame.

Looking at the exquisite composition and the magnificent background colors on the screen, Yang Rui was once again impressed by Lao Zhang's art skills.

This guy is indeed a natural artist, and his aesthetic sense is simply at its peak.

Even if he is a bit flawed as a director, he is already a big name in history in the Chinese entertainment industry. If it weren't for the public and private car accident, his status would probably be even higher.

Pity.

Yang Rui proofread the original movie in his mind while comparing the drawing process.

Although the memory of the original version is somewhat blurred, after this comparison, some differences can be clearly found.

There seems to be a big difference between the current version and the finished version on the earth?
Is it because time has changed and the world has changed, so Lao Zhang's philosophy has changed?
Or……

"How?" Lao Zhang couldn't wait to ask, interrupting Yang Rui's thoughts, "Is there any problem, do you have any suggestions?"

Frowning and deliberating, Yang Rui was about to answer, when suddenly a middle-aged man with a big belly came in behind him.

"Old Mouzi, have you finished your tossing?" The middle-aged man started to complain with a dark face as soon as he entered the door, "How many times have you edited a movie, do you know how much money you spent? It's almost enough, why are you so serious?" ?”

Zhang Yimou's expression turned pale when he looked at the people, "What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you that you are not allowed to intervene in film production?"

"I don't want to interfere, but look up, when is this?" The middle-aged man said angrily: "Old Mouzi, it's November! The other companies in the Spring Festival stalls have already started the first round The pre-heating publicity is over, you are still working on the editing, when are you going to work on it?"

"What's the rush, isn't there still two more months?" Zhang Yimou said with a dissatisfied face: "If you have nothing to do, go back first, don't hinder our work!"

The middle-aged man opened his mouth, and suddenly saw Yang Rui on the seat.

"Ah, isn't this Director Yang?" The middle-aged man greeted him with a smile, stretched out his hand and said, "I've seen your movie, and it's very good. You have this ability at a young age, it's amazing, keep working hard, He is very hopeful to succeed Lao Mouzi in the future."

As soon as these words came out, the audience fell silent.

A group of employees looked at each other with strange expressions.

Zhang Yimou's face was even more livid, as if he was going to scold someone.

What the hell are you, you deserve to teach Yang Rui in the tone of an elder?
Do you know what position this kid is in the circle now?
Did you drink too much? !
Yang Rui smiled indifferently, "Thank you Mr. Zhang, I will work hard."

When Lao Zhang was competing with this person just now, Yang Rui had already inquired with the editor beside him that this middle-aged man with a big belly was Zhang Weiping.

Like Liu Yiqian's mother, this Zhang Weiping is also a very complicated person, half angel and half devil.

Zhang Yimou was able to soar into the sky, Zhang Weiping definitely contributed, but in the middle and later stages, Zhang Yimou overturned one after another, and there was also the shadow of Zhang Weiping's black hands behind him.

Compared with Zhang Yimou, who still pursued art in this period, this Zhang Weiping was all about marketing and profit, and he didn’t have to do anything for the sake of selling tickets.

Looking at the disgusted expression on Lao Zhang's face, one can tell that the two of them are not far away from officially turning heads.

However, this person still thinks highly of himself, thinking that Zhang Yimou's success all depends on his off-site operations, without him, Zhang Weiping's marketing mastermind is nothing.

A person who even looks down on Lao Mouzi, Yang Rui didn't expect him to look down on him.

Anyway, I'm not a person all the way, so it's a waste of time to say anything to him.

Zhang Weiping left the editing room contentedly after "reminding" Yang Rui by ear to ear.

Snapped!
Zhang Yimou directly threw the thermos cup on the table, his face was livid with anger, "This guy is getting more and more outrageous, he looks like a stupid pig with no brains!"

"It's been a partner for more than ten years anyway, so it's a bit inappropriate to say that?" Yang Rui laughed.

"Just tell the truth." Zhang Yimou sneered and said, "Although he didn't understand movies before, he could at least have a sense of awe, but now that he has earned some box office dividends, he has started to drift away. I don't know how much he will lose! I said, he has spent all his years in vain, and he is not as sensible as a child like you."

Yang Rui couldn't help laughing, "Knowing him for more than ten years is worse than knowing me for three days. Perhaps Liu Butou's sorrow lies here?"

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Yimou's pupils suddenly shrank.

He no longer had the heart to complain, and stared at the picture of pulling the material and began to mutter to himself.

"Knowing each other for more than ten years is worse than three days, three years is worse than three days, three years is worse than three days..."

The more he chanted, the brighter his eyes became, and his expression became more and more excited, as if he was in a daze.

The editor at the side seemed to have realized something, and gave Yang Rui a thumbs up with admiration.

"It's wonderful, it's wonderful! It's the finishing touch!" Zhang Yimou was almost dancing with excitement: "In just one sentence, the fate of the three protagonists is clearly arranged, that's wonderful! You are definitely a genius!"

"Damn it, whoever dares to say that your kid's box office results are based on luck in the future, I'll just give him a melon seed!"
