Huayu: Start by asking ex-girlfriends for alms

Chapter 350 Teacher, if I say I am looking for Senior Sister Jiang for art, would you believe it?

The gang has added another veteran, making it bigger and stronger!
As we all know, ginger becomes hotter as it gets older, and women become sexier as they get older.

Hou Yong is a woman with ginger in her mouth, and her work is experienced and coquettish. As a new gang, in order to make a good deal, they will definitely devote their light and heat without reservation, and by the way, they can also stimulate other old men to have new sunset red!

Thinking of this, Zhen Jiecheng became even more delighted.

"It's better to rely on your parents! It's all shortcuts, no detours!"

"I really envy this little bastard Zhen Hao. He inherited such good genes from his father and has been influenced by him since he was a child."

Suddenly he was stunned, and the smile on his lips froze.

"Wait, it seems like I was the first one he bit."

"What are you thinking about? Come here! Let's talk about your script and your ideas!" Director Tian waved his hand. Seeing this, Zhen Jiecheng immediately put aside all the thoughts and strode into the middle of the group of old men.

Let’s talk about “Shoplifters” first, and then “The Father”.

"My idea is to shoot "The Father Trapped in Time" first as a stepping stone."

Cannes is not too stingy when it comes to the "double golden palm". On the contrary, it is the most generous among the three major European cinemas.

Berlin has only one double Golden Bear director: Li An.

Zhen Jiecheng is the fifth director to win two Golden Lion awards in Venice.

As of now, there are seven winners of the Cannes Double Palme d'Or Club!
According to memories from previous lives, this year Michael Haneke will win the Palme d'Or for Best Film for the second time with "Amour", becoming the eighth person to do so.

Later on, two more people will be added to reach double digits!

However, to be on the safe side, it is better to pad the knife first. Of course, the blade is still very sharp, but the final result is padding or cutting? That is another matter!

"I will continue to revise the script later. We have an old saying, 'There is no filial son in front of a long-term sick bed.' There is too much human nature that can be exploited here."

"The boundary of family affection and morality is an obscure and extremely tragic area. There is no absolute right or wrong, and it is not just my father who suffers from Alzheimer's who is struggling."

"The more intense the pain, the more powerless I feel, and the more conflicted I feel. Emmm, so confused!"

“Confused?” Hou Yong smacked his lips. “Yeah, that’s a good word!”

"Of course, the thinness of the plot is obvious, but that's what makes it challenging, isn't it?" Zhen Jiecheng raised his eyebrows. He was excited and eager to try. But what caught people's attention the most was his high-spirited confidence!
To this, everyone nodded as a matter of course.

Isn't the story of "Never Return" quite simple? But this does not prevent it from being recorded in film history and included in the textbooks of major film and television art schools.

“I want to try a documentary-style image and narrative to calmly tell the story of the brokenness and fragility of old age.”

Calm narration does not mean that there is no plot conflict.

Just like contrast is not only a telegram pass, but also an actor's advanced expression and the ever-changing magic of the lens language!
In the future, there will be a film directed by a German director about the daily life and work of a Neon toilet cleaner, called "Perfect Life".

The form is simpler, but by building on tiny details in daily life, the audience can build up a accumulation of emotional power almost without noticing, ultimately delivering rich spiritual content.

In the end, the film was shortlisted for the main competition unit of Cannes and the Oscars, and won the honor of Best Actor in Cannes.

When Zhen Jiecheng was "creating" the script for "The Father Trapped in Time", he also referred to this in his filming ideas.

As a result, more and more revisions were made, making it increasingly difficult for the actors.

But it doesn’t matter!
Having just returned from training on the set of "The Grandmaster" with sunglasses, Zhen Jiecheng has already mastered the ultimate secret of the "advanced version of eagle training".

It's just an art film! The scenes are simple! How much is the film worth?

Endure! Endure until death!
"Introducing the confusing 'time-space body', and using audio-visual symbols to construct the inner world of Alzheimer's patients."

“In addition, object language, body language and paralanguage form a non-verbal communication system; the color and light of props are used to match the iconic features of the characters.”

“I already have a rough idea of ​​how to use narrative language and non-verbal communication systems to create a relatively vivid and three-dimensional narrative space. What remains is to slowly polish it and make it as delicate as possible to make up for the weaknesses of the story.”

Once Zhen Jiecheng started talking, he couldn't stop.

From the direction of the entire film to the metaphor design of the specific plot, including how the construction of the filming location should match the "memory maze" of Alzheimer's patients.

The wealth and variety are endless.

"Wow! Just the content that came out of my mouth can be published as a paper after being organized and enriched!" Hou Yong smacked his lips in amazement, and the pressure in his heart doubled.

"I'm afraid it's not easy to carry the camera this time!"

“Although the story is simple, it might be difficult to film it!”

"Damn it, I'm so old, I'm afraid I'm going to suffer a lot!"

The heated discussion in the office continued until lunchtime, and everyone went out to have a meal together under Zhen Jiecheng's arrangement, just in time to welcome Hou Yong.

It was late at night when he returned to the company drunk.

Cheng Hao's belly was getting bigger and bigger, so she returned to Qingdao with her family and the evidence of the crime a few days ago. So Zhen Jiecheng moved into the company's dormitory again and lived a lonely life.

Polishing the script and handling company affairs. I can’t say I’m very busy, but I can’t rest either.

"Let's Get Married" has completed production. In its previous life, this drama was jointly filmed and produced by Yangshi, Xiangchu Satellite TV and other units, so it was premiered directly on Yangshi-1 and Xiangchu Satellite TV.

But it is not easy to achieve this now.

The problem with Xiangchu TV is easy to solve, but Yangshi TV's attitude is a bit weird. No, it should be said to be ambiguous!
There is always a feeling that the door will be wide open in the next second, but the legs are still closed.

After several contacts, Zhen Jiecheng even had an illusion: he only needed to stretch out his hand, without any effort, and the door would open automatically.

It was as if he was just waiting for Zhen Jiecheng to extend his hand!

"What's going on? If it was the Sixth Princess, I could understand, but Yang Shiyi is just a set. We don't have much of a relationship! Sister Hu Die is just an anchor, she can't have a say!"

"Forget it, don't think about it anymore, just deal with it as it should. Yangshi is an official media after all, they have some dignity, how can they cheat someone as shameless as me?"

Gangsters are not to be feared, but gangsters with culture are to be feared. This sentence is tailor-made for the director of Beijing Film Academy. As the product of a dirty nest, Zhen Jiecheng has sufficient confidence.

I called Sister Zhu Junni and asked Hu Die to come with me. Then I went to Yangshi to chat with the relevant leaders in charge of the TV series, and then had a meal in the nearby cafeteria.

To Zhen Jiecheng's surprise, the director of Yangshi also came. Although the content of the conversation was not very nutritious, the words were very polite.

"Brother Zhu, I think there's something wrong here!"

"No, there's nothing wrong." Zhu Jun shook his head, "Jiecheng, you think too much."

"That's right! I was just passing by." Sister Ni added, "Besides, you are an international director, and guests are guests. Even if you come here on purpose, isn't that normal?"

"Really? I don't believe it!" Zhen Jiecheng turned his gaze to Hu Die, "Sister, you definitely won't lie to me, right?"

"Brother Jie, I'm not qualified to lie even if I want to!" Hu Die spread her hands innocently, "I don't know anything."

After a pause,
"Emmm, is there a possibility that I should be more polite and courteous to you, Brother Jie, now? In case I accidentally offend you in the future, there will still be room for negotiation, and I won't be directly criticized for writing poems and crosstalk?"

"Hahaha! Hu Die, you're right!" Zhu Jun and Ni Ping laughed.

"Stop it. Your Yangshi is a deputy-bureaucrat-level unit. How can an ordinary person like me have the guts to offend you? I can't afford to offend you!"

"Come on, Optoelectronics is still a department-level unit! Haven't you, the director of Beijing Film Academy, offended enough people?" Sister Ni rolled her eyes, "Everyone is like Zhao Zilong, full of courage!"

Zhen Jiecheng: (Д)ノ

"Look, I was right, wasn't I?" Sister Ni couldn't help laughing, "Well, Jiecheng, you really don't have to think too much. To describe it with the plot in martial arts novels: when a young genius visits, the head of a major sect shows up to receive him and keep him in good rapport, isn't it reasonable? Besides, Jiecheng, you are no longer a rookie, but a world-renowned person with many honors."

"Wait a minute!" Zhen Jiecheng frowned and interrupted Ni Ping, "Good fate? Are you thinking of me? Do you want me to take over the Spring Festival Gala?"

His eyes were fixed on the three of them.

There was still clear wisdom in Hu Die's eyes, but Zhu Jun and Sister Ni avoided her gaze.

"Well, Jiecheng, didn't you say that if the Spring Festival Gala agreed to let you and Jiang Wen perform crosstalk, then..." Zhu Jun smiled awkwardly, "In fact, we all think that you and Jiang Wen are quite professional in crosstalk. As long as the script is not outrageous, it is not impossible to perform on the Spring Festival Gala."

"This way, on the one hand, we have a good language program, and it's the kind that the audience is looking forward to. On the other hand, we can have a great director like you to control the evening show. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"

"Brother Zhu, Sister Ni, I was just joking! Why did you believe the damn Jielun rumor? And after it spread, I explained it again." Zhen Jiecheng scratched his head, "Also, is Yangshi okay? Don't you care about the impact?"

Pointing at the air,

"A troll! A bad artist with a five-year ban!"

Then point to yourself,
"A big troll! A morally corrupt gentleman!" "The two of them keep saying fuck, they are just trying to be the director, otherwise they would have been banned long ago!"

"Can we two be on the Spring Festival Gala? Be worthy of the Spring Festival Gala? In this case, you should let us be on Focus Interview, which is more reliable."

"Anyway, it's not the first time that our Beijing Film Academy director has appeared on a legal program. By the way, we can also get someone from the Central Academy of Drama to back us up. It's not shabby!"

Zhu Jun: (￣ー￣)
Ni Ping:ヽ(ー_ー)ノ

Looking at Zhen Jiecheng's "resolute" back as he left, Hu Die put down her arms that were waving in farewell and looked at the two seniors.

"Brother Zhu, Sister Ni, the person in charge of the Spring Festival Gala really wants Brother Jie to direct it?"

"Yeah!" Zhu Jun nodded. "It's been getting worse every year, especially last year. The people scolded us so harshly, and there was a lot of pressure from the higher-ups."

"First of all, Jiecheng participated in the opening ceremony of the Olympics. You have also seen the documentary. Jiecheng played a crucial role in it. So directing a large-scale evening party is not unfamiliar to him at all. He is very experienced!"

"Secondly, Jie Cheng is also good at comedy. His recent debuts, "Life Events" and "Nobody", are both comedy films."

"He is also the screenwriter of Ning Hao's Crazy series, including the box office dark horse Lost on Journey a few years ago and the sequel Lost in Thailand, which is being filmed this year. All of them were written and produced by Jiecheng Films."

"People are complaining that the Spring Festival Gala is not good-looking and funny anymore. A director who is good at comedy can definitely inject some fun elements into the Spring Festival Gala."

"Jie Cheng has both, so he will naturally attract special attention. If he is willing to take over, he will undoubtedly be the first choice."

"But the problem is, Brother Jie doesn't want to!" Hu Die frowned.

"It doesn't matter. Liu Bei had to visit Zhuge Liang three times. For a famous director of Jie Cheng's level, one visit is not enough. Just take your time!" Ni Ping interrupted, "Besides, Ha Wen has only done one Spring Festival Gala. After learning from the failure of the first time, maybe he can do it well in the next Spring Festival Gala? Then we won't have to bother Jie Cheng."

"We should try our best to be prepared!"

"It's just a coincidence. He just came to my door. As for the drama "Let's Get Married", regardless of its quality, there was no fuss in the follow-up of the show. It was given the green light all the way. Just tell me whether Jiecheng will remember this kindness or not!"

"If you accumulate small favors a few more times, won't it become a big favor?"

"Spring Festival Gala? Even dogs won't go!"

Zhen Jiecheng spat in disgust.

He is used to having the final say on the set. Who would want to be a grandson on the Spring Festival Gala?

In the early days, "Making Up Excuses" could be blatantly satirical, but now even jokes have to be educational.

"The big hammer is eighty, the small hammer is forty" is an adult joke about "adultery between a man and a woman". Now, it would be directly criticized by positive energy.

In Zhen Jiecheng's opinion, whoever goes will take the blame! It's nothing more than Yangshi wanting to find someone bigger who can take a bigger blame!
“Isn’t it nice to make a movie?”

"Staring at people with big sunglasses and yelling at people with a megaphone, don't you feel good?"

"Why should I suffer that injustice?"

Zhen Jiecheng thought about it, took out his cell phone and called Jielun. Relying on his sharp tongue and the fact that the other party was a stutterer, he felt much better after a crushing attack.

After accepting the invitation to a one-on-one match at the Jielun Stadium, he hung up the phone and continued to think about the script.

“Who will play the father with Alzheimer’s disease?”

"Lao Deng'er's cousin?"

"Li Xuejian's acting skills are indeed fine, but his voice is..."

In 00, Li Xuejian was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer. After the operation, his voice became worse and worse. But even so, he still played a supporting role in "Young Marshal" and beat the protagonist played by Wen Zhang in various ways.

This person not only has superb acting skills, but also has a very wide range of acting skills!

The performance was great, glorious and righteous, such as Jiaoyu Lu.

He can play the role of a loyal but treacherous person, like Song Jiang.

The former makes one respect him inevitably, while the latter, when he kneels on the ground with his butt sticking out, makes one want to rush up and give him a kick.

From the emperor to the common people.

Honest and simple, smooth and cunning.

All of them can penetrate deeply!

Compared with Chen Daoming's "routine" performance, which was criticized, Li Xuejian's performance is undoubtedly a level higher!
"Oh, what a pity!"

Zhen Jiecheng smacked his lips and considered his next choice.

"Mr. You Benchang?"

"Forget it! The old man is old and can't stand the torment anymore."

"If it turns out to be a 'posthumous work', it would be a huge sin!"

Zhen Jiecheng shuddered subconsciously and quickly excluded the old man.

"Old Zhao?"

"But Lao Zhao has a strong Northeastern accent. If we choose him, we will have to re-adjust the script. It's just a matter of adjusting. How much work can it be?"

"Emm, that's not right! It's a lot of work!"

Zhen Jiecheng grinned with excitement on his face.

"Old Zhao, Old Zhao! For you, I spent a lot of energy to modify the script! It's not an exaggeration to say that it was tailor-made for you!"

"Considering my huge efforts, it shouldn't be a big deal if I endure you a little longer, right?"

Thinking of this, Zhen Jiecheng circled Lao Zhao's name and temporarily listed him as the number one choice.

Then a few more candidates were added, and then the focus turned to the role of "daughter".

For some reason, the image of Senior Sister Jiang Wenli immediately came to mind.

"No! Choose this one, Lao Deng'er is ptsd!"

A Zhao Tao, the wife of Senior Brother Jia Zhangke.

A Jiang Wenli, the wife of Senior Brother Gu Changwei.

Following the tradition of Beijing Film Academy directors poaching people and becoming "comrades in arms", which directly led to "infighting", all the old ladies, including the two of them, were put on Lao Deng'er's list. Whenever Zhen Jiecheng came into contact with one of them, it would attract Lao Deng'er's special attention.

Especially the latter, Senior Sister Jiang.

First of all, this person was dug up by Gu Changwei from Wang Quanan, and he has a criminal record! If Zhen Jiecheng hoes the land again, it will be a big joke!
Secondly, Jiang and Gu are basically a couple on paper, and privately, they are completely free and open! When they meet Zhen Jiecheng, a professional "parent-lover", it is very likely that they will have too many concubines.

Based on the above two reasons, Jiang Wenli directly jumped to the top of Lao Deng'er's list.

"Stab~"

Zhen Jiecheng gritted his teeth and drew a big X on Jiang Wenli's name.

Turning my gaze to Haiqing, he looks a little immature, fuck him!
Turning to Miaopu is even worse, Cheng Hao will get ptsd!

Turning to Hao Lei, the charm in her eyes is too charming, it doesn't fit the role, fuck it!
The more you ×, the clearer Jiang Wenli's image becomes!
His eyes involuntarily fell on her name, and his hand uncontrollably picked up the phone and dialed Lao Deng'er's number.

"dududu~"

"Hello, Jiecheng. Why are you calling me so late at night? What's the matter?"

"Ahem, teacher, I do have something I want to consult you about."

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Regarding the casting of "The Father Stuck in Time", I already have an actor in mind for the role of the father, but I'm a little unsure about the role of the daughter."

"Isn't my daughter just a supporting role? What's there to be unsure about?" Director Tian asked doubtfully, "Read the list of candidates and I'll give you some advice."

"Emm, Jiang Wenli."

"Xiao Jiang? Well, she's quite suitable. Wait! What do you want to do, you bastard?"
