Coquettish Rebirth

Chapter 2385 Environment and Investment

"Hey! My brother, what can you do? You are Dutch? Then we can still speak Mandarin?" Jia Hongjian said to Xu Ligong in the Dutch dialect at that time!It turned out that this Xu Ligong was taken by his parents and transferred to Daiwan before liberation!When I was a child, I grew up to 7 years old in the Dutch province of the Central Plains!And the parents at home are all native Dutch!Although he speaks with a dull accent now, he can still speak Dutch!

Once he heard Dutch, Jia Hongjian still spoke Mandarin with others?Just speak Dutch, okay?He, Jia Hung-chien, spoke Dutch very well!And it's Xu Chang's lumpy accent. Although it's not from Xu Ligong's hometown, it's from the same "language family" no matter how you say it!

At this time Xu Ligong saw that Jia Hongjian spoke Dutch, what a surprise!There is really a rush to meet an old friend in a foreign country! "Hey! Brother, you can still speak our Dutch? It's a good relationship! Aren't you from Shanghai? Why can you speak our Dutch?" "Brother, you don't know, my parents were not Going to the mountains and going to the countryside? There were not so many job opportunities in the city back then, and a large number of young people had no jobs, so the government arranged for educated youth to go to the countryside. At that time, my parents went to the Loess Plateau, but you should know, there is not a Huayuankou, Jiang Guangtou blew up Huayuankou, how many people in the Central Plains fled, and a large number of Dutch people fled to the Loess Plateau! So my parents can speak Dutch and Dongfu dialect on the Loess Plateau , which is the dialect of Weichuan and Huashan near Chang'an. As a result, I learned it from my parents when I was young, but I didn't learn Dongfu dialect. I learned Dutch..." Jia Hongjian laughed.

That's right, that's why Jia Hongjian could speak Dutch.When he said this, Xu Ligong immediately lamented the miraculous situation in the world!How could Jia Hongjian, a young man born and bred in Shanghai, understand the Dutch dialect of Xu Ligong's hometown!Immediately, he couldn't hold back, and immediately got up to find out the baijiu that he had hidden for several years, so he would open it for a while and drink it with Jia Hongjian!

Speaking of which, Xu Ligong originally wanted to go to the restaurant to cleanse Jia Hongjian, but Jia Hongjian didn't go at all!Moreover, Jia Hongjian also said, what would you do with the spare money for a restaurant? It would be more suitable for filming than for a restaurant!So when it came to the end, it became a "light meal" at Xu Ligong's house.Then after going to Xu Ligong's house.Li An couldn't sit still.I felt really embarrassed, so I just got up and cooked for everyone. When I was unemployed at home for 6 years, Li An was in charge of the housework and meals at home!

After a while, Li An brought the dishes to the table one after another.He served it first.That's steamed pork with flour -- this old Li's ancestral home is in western Ganxi.Although he was born in Dawan.But my parents were from Ganxi back then, so the snacks at home all tasted from Ganxi!And this Lao Li cooks by himself after he arrived in the United States, it is also for the taste he is used to, all the dishes are the taste of Ganxi!Wait until Li An's meals are ready.After he himself went to the table, he was also pulled by Jia Hongjian to persuade him to drink, and after drinking for three rounds, Li An also let go. He really called Jia Hongjian brothers and sisters!

As for Li An, after drinking a few taels of white wine, he also got on his head.After Xu Ligong drank a few cups, Jia Hongjian forcibly robbed him of white wine and only gave him tea, Li An then pulled Jia Hongjian to start chatting about movies, life and ideals!When he was rambling, he started talking about the plot of "Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger", what the original work was like, and then what he wanted to make.How should he shoot the entangled and delicate emotions of the characters, how to express the traditional Chinese emotions in which the male and female protagonists are ambiguous with each other but cannot break through the boundaries due to various reasons...

To be honest, Jia Hongjian sounded a bit like "Brokeback Mountain"!Although the roles played by Li Mubai and Yang Ziqiong were indeed ambiguous for various reasons but they could not be together again, but when Li An described it, he wanted the kind of delicate emotions and entanglements when they get along. Caring for each other but being unable to be together really reminded Jia Hongjian of "Brokeback Mountain". In "Brokeback Mountain", isn't it that two men each have their own families, can't be together and then love each other, and then all kinds of things Confused?So he thought about it at this time, this Li An is really interesting, if such a story of two people entangled, it is approved as a martial arts, that is "Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger", and it is approved as a homosexual, that is "Brokeback" Mountain"!Sure enough, this Ang Lee is a catcher of classical Chinese literati, and the tangled and delicate perception of the relationship between the pair... um... a bit like a girl?

This is not Jia Hongjian calling Li An a motherfucker!Really not!But he really felt that this delicate emotional entanglement was like a product of a girl's thinking!Only a girl would be so entangled in thinking about things!But Li An is a man again, although he is weaker and more restrained, he still speaks with a soft Mandarin accent like Dawan, but he really has nothing special about him, and he doesn't have any orchid fingers, so this is for Jia Hong. It's really amazing to gradually catch up!

But when you think about it, when Hollywood asked Ang Lee to make "The Incredible Hulk", Hulk was originally a violent and frank movie about smashing, smashing and looting, but he made it into a rush like a literary movie. The entanglement and changes in the Hulk's heart are really shown!However, the market response is really not good. After all, the stereotype of Hulk in the United States is too deep. This is the same as the impression of Monkey King in China. , all kinds of delicate thoughts and all kinds of entanglements in the filming of Sun Wukong... There is no fighting or killing in the filming, it is all in the inner scene... This is not good-looking!Even the smash hit "Wukong Biography" in this era, isn't there something heroic about it?Isn't it like "If I want this sky, I can't cover my eyes anymore; if I want this earth, I can't hide my heart anymore; if I want all living beings to understand my intentions; if I want all the Buddhas to disappear in smoke"?

After eating and drinking with Li An and the others here, Jia Hongjian of course left the check unconditionally, and then told Xu Ligong that he was not in a hurry to sign a contract, then turned around and went out to the one that Duan Zhongyi had booked for him. hotel.At this time, Jia Hongjian seemed to be drinking a lot, and he was a little swaying when he walked, and Li An next to him even lay down directly under the table, but when he was sent to the hotel room by Duan Zhongyi, Duan Zhongyi left again After eating, Jia Hongjian got up from the bed immediately.His drinking capacity is definitely not enough to get drunk, he acted as if he was drunk just now, and it was for the enjoyment of the guests and hosts!It's also to show his arrogance!

He took off his clothes, took a shower humming this song, and continued to think about Li An—hey, it's weird not to mention it, how did Li An, who was so entangled, finally filmed " What about "Fantasy Journey of Boy Pi"?To be honest, Jia Hongjian has seen this film, but it is not so entangled in it, that is, storytelling is storytelling. It is really a bit different from the entangled style of Ang Lee's literary films before. It really combines business and literature. Organically combined together!And there are so many metaphors in it!

Hey, you said that when Zhang Yimou became famous internationally, it was because of films like "Red Sorghum".Although this film was later said by many people in the country to only shoot some things about rural China to make foreign masters feel happy, but in fact, if Jia Hongjian wanted to abandon colored glasses when watching the film, it would really have some bright spots!However, Jia Hongjian also knew that Zhang Yimou's international success was mainly due to Jiang Wen in this film!This Jiang Wen himself has a strong desire for dominance, but at that time Jiang Wen only had a domination desire for the characters. It can be said that the characters played by Jiang Wen brought the "soul" to the whole play!

Comparing Zhang Yimou and Ang Lee, both of them were shooting something like literary films at the beginning, at least in the purely commercial field, neither of them can do it.But later on, how did Ang Lee have a vague mastery demeanor, how did he organically combine business and literature?And why Zhang Yimou couldn't do it?Is it true that the environment creates different endings?Although it is said that Ang Lee also has script skills, he graduated from the directing department, and the few scripts he wrote in the early 90s were also written for himself to have the opportunity to film.However, the few big-budget films he made in the 21st century never had his own scripts!Even in the 21st century, he doesn't write notebooks anymore!So it cannot be said that it is the result of whether two people have their own creative ability.

Then it can only be said that the environment is different-because Zhang Yimou is in China, it is like playing chess with a stinky chess basket. Not to mention that the more he plays, the more stinky he is, but his growth is definitely limited.But even so, Zhang Yimou's "Hero" also created a precedent for Chinese commercial blockbusters, and it also proved that it is feasible for others to make commercial blockbusters in China!From this point of view, Zhang Yimou is at least in China, or in the field of mainland China. He has achieved an organic combination of commerce and art. "!"

However, it may be because the film industry on the mainland is still weak, so Zhang Yimou can only grope and work hard on his own, while Ang Lee in Hollywood, even if he came from a literary film, can still ponder and learn the advanced commercial film concept there, and then absorb it. After entering, it becomes a Hollywood masterpiece combining business and literature with its own unique style, and then it can express his literature and art, and it can also make the box office exceed 5 million U.S. dollars!Zhang Yimou definitely couldn't achieve this kind of achievement...

After thinking about it, Jia Hongjian wanted to win Li An over. From then on, if Li An's films were all invested by him, then he would really make a lot of money... (To be continued...)
