Full-time actor

Chapter 272 [99] An opportunity to catch up with China Film Group!

"The Sun Also Rises", the story of this script is actually very simple when you break it down.

"That is, a man cheated on him and 'died'; the woman who was 'cheated' took her child to live in his hometown; but one day, the man suddenly appeared again, and the key is that he was still with his original wife When he came back, he was so angry with a woman that he was already a lunatic, so he just threw himself into the river and committed suicide!”

Chen Yu said there, Shu Ping and Jiang Wen looked at each other, and then nodded.

Obviously, Chen Yu was right.

This is a script written by Shuping at the beginning. It seems very simple, but the story must be very twists and turns.

The tragedy of a man who thought he was Wang Baochuan, but turned out to be Qin Xianglian's... "mother".

A woman waits all her life for the man of her dreams.

In the end, when my hair turned gray, I finally saw clearly the tragedy of my life.

"what?"

"And the protagonist's father's name is Li Bukong, which means "Shi" and "Li Shi". The homophone is 'history'!"

Zhou Yun next to her looked at Chen Yu in disbelief as if she were listening to a book from heaven. Then, she looked at Shu Ping.

“You could say it’s magical realism!”

"Who did history combine with to create the current country?"

"Let him speak, let him speak!"

After Shu Ping and Jiang Wen heard the name, they were both a little stunned.

"The protagonist's name is Li Dongfang!"

When Shu Ping said this, he was furious.

Jiang Wen laughed so loudly that he almost alerted the people in the box next door.

Simply wonderful!

"Fuck, yes!"

Even if he has been scarred, faced a hail of bullets, invaded, suffered a lot of infamy, and been poor to the lowest point, he can still stand at the top of the east of the world!

This time, the change of skills went smoothly. This was his first contact with Chen Yu. Jiang Wen praised him a lot, but Chen Yu looked very young, so he really couldn't think of him as powerful!

But now, he has really changed his mind: "Do you still know about magical realism?"

"..."

The Chinese sun, no matter what it goes through, can still rise.

But he had to admit that after Jiang Wen adapted it, the story became very meaningful.

“However, it seems so simple at first, but it’s actually quite complicated!”

Jiang Wen had a cigarette in his mouth, and he was obviously a little excited.

"The Sun Also Rises?"

What about the names and depth in this script? !

"The several timelines are also very deliberate, the winter of 58, the year 76... the love and hatred of the three countries!"

"From Russia to America, from crazy sports to the rising of the sun!"

Zhou Yun was a little dumbfounded.

"Hahaha!"

"That's a good name!"

Shuping shrugged noncommittally.

"Yo ho!"

"For example, the leading female lead, the mother of the leading actor Li Dongfang!"

"So simple?"

Obviously asking, is what Chen Yu said...all true?

Is the role I want to play so important? !

Mother? Motherland?

This... this movie instantly sublimated!

"The east is the land beneath our feet; the place where Chinese people from all over the world gather is called Chinatown, and Tang refers to the Tang Dynasty, which is Li!"

"Li Dongfang is the new China. I think the name of this drama can be called - "The Sun Also Rises"!"

"I changed the script and added a lot of details, especially the time, specific names, and specific lines!"

"That's because Director Jiang changed my script after reading it!"

"The identity of the protagonist's mother is naturally self-evident!"

The finishing touch is actually a metaphor.

"The Sun Also Rises?"

Zhou Yun looked at Jiang Wen in disbelief and said with some confusion: "Then why can't I understand it? It feels very complicated and there are many story lines in it..."

Then, I felt more and more that this name was wonderful!

"She seems to be crazy in the script, but we know that she is not crazy, but she only has one word - Mom!"

"..."

Chen Yu smiled and glanced at Jiang Wen: "It's not simple, it's a metaphor for the movie!"

"Is this the story?"

The more Jiang Wen murmured, the more he felt good about it, and the eyes of Shu Ping next to him became brighter and brighter. These six words were enough.

"No, brother, have you read the script and thought of my name?"

Jiang Wen was cheerful there, and Chen Yu didn't want to say anything more at all.

Isn't this the name you gave yourself?

I just told you in advance.

"but--"

Chen Yu suddenly said to Jiang Wen and Shu Ping: "If you shoot like this, you will die; what is a movie? It is an art that can be understood by the general public and people all over the world. Lao Jiang, do you make movies for your own enjoyment?" "

"That nonsense, I don't appreciate it myself, so why should others think it's good?"

"wrong!"

This was the first time that Chen Yu refuted Jiang Wen like this.

"It's true to appreciate it. According to what you said, you can just make a movie and enjoy it at home. Why show it to the public? Isn't it just to make the audience think the movie is awesome? When you make it like this, it really has depth and is really awesome. Yes, but that only suits a small group of people!"

"Brother, I support you!" This time, Shuping surprisingly stood by Chen Yu. No one dared to speak out against Jiang Wen before. In fact, he had wanted to say this for a long time.

"Senior, put down your airs and cater to the audience. Even the senior sister can't understand it. She is still a major!"

"Do you expect everyone to understand your movie?"

"I don't think they can all—"

"Forget it, brother, there's no need to talk about this!"

"I'm afraid of being tried, you know?"

In the years when filming was not banned, if Chen Yu had said this, Jiang Wen would have had to argue with him. But now he is the employer, and after all, it is for the good of the film, so Jiang Wen can understand.

It can only be said that his temper has become better in recent years.

It will only expand again after "let the bullets fly".

This guy's character is like this.

Self-appreciation and satisfaction, immersing yourself in your own works is completely inextricable!

Only if he falls will he feel the pain. Others, not to mention Chen Yu, probably not even his father, can change his mind.

Otherwise, how could there be "Let the Bullets Fly"?

"Let the Bullets Fly" is his compromise with the market.

Then, after it became popular, the same old pattern happened again, and he made several movies in succession, but "The Sun" was better than "One Step Away" and "The Righteous One". After all, this was after he had been banned for five years. A movie made with care.

But it is true as he said, such metaphors are only for review.

If it's too obvious, it might be another banned film, even if it's patriotic, you can't love it too blatantly.

"Drink, drink!"

Jiang Wen no longer wanted to continue on this issue, and Chen Yu also stopped. After several people finished drinking, they said goodbye at the door.

"brother!"

Jiang Wen drunkenly hooked Chen Yu's shoulder: "Let me make one. I don't believe there is no audience in China who can appreciate good movies. If it fails..."

"Hehehe!"

He smiled and waved his hand: "I won't shoot if it fails!"

"Wait for me to hear the news, and I will definitely start the project as soon as possible!"

"Well, I'll wait for you!"

"Goodbye, senior sister..."

Chen Yu greeted everyone, but he didn't drink. He was in good spirits and had to practice when he got back.

Seeing Jiang Wen being helped into the car by Zhou Yun, Chen Yu turned around and walked towards his car.

He would like to see how the movie "The Sun Also Rises" in this life can be better for him. At least, the performance can show something.

***

The next day, Chen Yu and Liu Yifei went to the Central Theater together.

It has been a few days since school started, and they are already sophomores, but the most important thing for the two of them is to complete the final exam of last semester.

"Boss, did you know that in the 03-level acting department, we have 5 classes in Chinese opera!"

"Good guy, there are so many of your fans. They came to class to see you on the first day of school. Fortunately, you weren't here!"

As soon as Chen Yu arrived in the class, he obviously caused a sensation again.

Many people were congratulating him on winning the Venice Best Actor, while Li Zefeng was telling Chen Yu's ears interesting stories from the past few days.

He and Liu Yifei had just finished their major exams. Chen Yu had to attend two days of classes at the Chinese Opera in the past few days. On the 9th the day after tomorrow, he had to fly to Ukraine to film "House of Flying Daggers". He was the busiest in the whole class; of course, the Chinese Opera also There is absolutely nothing to say.

Venice has won another Best Actor, and it has truly added honor to the school!

Chang Li couldn't even bear to say harsh words to Chen Yu. The key was that even if he didn't come to school, his test scores would still be up to standard.

This is what all the students in his class are convinced of.

After half a day of class, Chen Yu saw Ulantana, who had lost a lot of weight, in the large lecture theater of the Performance Department. Chen Yu made an appointment with her.

"Warm Spring" has been filmed and produced, and Urantana approached Chen Yu to discuss the release of it.

The drama also attaches great importance to this matter.

There is no way, their directing department has finally produced a student who can make movies. This is no different than Nortel, which catches a lot of them. Most of the students who graduated from the directing department of China National Theater are either working as directors and directors on TV stations, or filming commercials and music videos. , there are really not many people who make movies with so many qualifications.

But that's not a bad thing either.

This kind of thing would never be treated like this at Nortel; in the case of China National Theater, the leaders of the entire directing department and the acting department were all waiting there.

"Junior, congratulations!"

"I really didn't know last time, you just came back from Venice!"

Wu Lanta looked at Chen Yu shyly, and Chen Yu waved his hand: "It's okay. Have you brought a copy of the movie?"

"Brought it!"

Urantana pointed to the cloth bag next to her.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

Chen Yu knew what was going on in Ulan Tower in the past six months. The filming was very difficult, and she remembered every account of the expenses in detail. The 200 million was basically spent on the cutting edge, and her own remuneration was not included at all. in.

The actor was even more unknown. Chen Yu was afraid of disturbing her filming rhythm, so he was surprisingly laissez-faire.

"It's my turn to thank you!"

"You trust me so much that I can fulfill my dream so smoothly!"

Ulan Tana knew that Chen Yu was now famous in China. He was a first-line actor. Apart from text messages and interactions during the filming, he really didn't interfere with anything on the crew. He completely allowed her to be free. play.

"Let's not be so polite. The teachers from the directing department are waiting!"

"We'll discuss how to release it after watching it. Maybe we can also ask the leadership if we can find some connections with China Film!"

At present, if we want to say that it is the first domestic distributor, it must be China Film.

And it is the type of dimensionality reduction attack. No domestic publishing company has such strength.

This is an opportunity to catch up with this giant crocodile!
