Coquettish Rebirth

When Liang Jiahui received an invitation to audition from the crew of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" through an agent, he was surprised. "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms? Is this something going to be filmed in the mainland?" As a Hong Kong star, he usually doesn't pay much attention to the film and television news in the mainland, and he is considered to be in the film industry, so he has a lot of understanding and care for the TV industry. few. "Jiahui, what's the matter?" At this moment, Tony Leung's wife came over and curiously asked her husband who was holding the phone in a daze.

"Well, I'll give you an answer in a while." After hanging up the phone with his agent, Tony Leung stood up and looked at his beloved wife, stepped forward and hugged her and said, "The mainland wants me to give "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" The audition is said to be a long-form TV series..." who knew that after the explanation, the wife immediately said in disgust, "Why do you accept the mainland drama? Didn't they hurt you enough? You have to go to the night market to show up Spread!"

Leung Ka Fai laughed when he heard this, it seemed that he was banned because he went to mainland China to film "The Last Emperor", but the reason for the ban was that he was banned by Dawan.And it was precisely because of being blocked that he was able to find out that his wife would never leave him when he was setting up a stall. At that time, he was so moved that he took a stainless steel nut as a ring to propose to his wife.For him, although filming in the mainland brought some difficulties to his career, it also allowed him to find out how good his wife is, and then marry her!This can also be said to be a blessing and a curse.

At this time, Liang Jiahui's wife also realized that she should not interfere too much with her husband's choice of filming. She asked, "Don't you still have an invitation for a Japanese film in your hand? Then are you going to the mainland to film or film the director of the district?" drama?" So it was in 95.Leung Ka Fai just received an offer from Hong Kong-based director Au Ding Ping.This district Ding Ping is Mao Shunyun's new husband.This Mao Shunyun is the woman who played the heroine of the country girl in Master Xing's "Descendants of the Dragon".And in 92, she also starred in the "cousin nainai" with Leslie Cheung in Huang Baiming's "Happy Family".Speaking of which, it was when Mao Shunyun first debuted.I also dated for a while with Leslie Cheung, who was still a rookie host.

The play of Mao Shunyun's husband is called "The Christ of Southern Zhili". It is a play adapted from the novel of the same name by the Japanese writer Akutagawa Ryunosuke, and there will be a Japanese actress Yasuko Tomita in this play. main character.Although when the two names of Japan and Nanzhili are linked together, it is easy to think of the massacre during World War II.But this drama has nothing to do with that. It tells a story about Ryunosuke Akutagawa with himself as the main character, which happened in Nanzhili in 1900.When Ryunosuke Akutagawa went to study in Nanzhili, he ran into a girl named Jinhua by the Qinhuai River, and within a few days, the two fell in love and hated each other.In the end, Akutagawa Ryunosuke returned to Japan, but Jin Hua couldn't wait for her lover's return, so she could only pin her spirit on Christianity...

It's strange to say that if Liang Jiahui takes this drama, then the Japanese man Akutagawa Ryunosuke in this drama will be played by Liang Jiahui, a Chinese man, and the Chinese girl Jinhua will be played by Japanese actress Tomita Jingzi played the role-is it a coincidence that this damn is upside down?

In fact, Liang Jiahui finished acting in several spoof comedies in the past two years.Now he is a little tired of acting, and at this time he wants to transition back and continue to make literary films.If he hadn't been invited by "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", then it is very likely that he would have accepted the play "Christ of Nanzhili".But now he is a little hesitant, because he understands the weight of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!This kind of TV series with big scenes and big investment, Hong Kong and Hong Kong will never make it in their lifetime!

This time he was asked to audition for the role of Liu Bei.This is a challenge for himself!After all, he had never played such a well-known character before!And on the other hand, not to mention the weight and attractiveness of the stars and actors of the mainland's full acting school!For an actor, being able to play against a good actor of the acting school is very enjoyable and attractive!When he went north to film "The Last Emperor", as a non-study member who came from the TVB artist training class, he never thought that the actors in mainland China would be so good at acting!

He even still remembers that when he played against Liu Xiaoqing nainai back then, the shot was Liang Jiahui with his back to the camera, and the camera only shot the back of Liang Jiahui's head and shoulders, and then shot a scene of Liu Xiaoqing kneeling in front of Liang Jiahui Monologue.Generally speaking, when Hong Kong and Hong Kong actors shoot this kind of scene, the person with his back to the camera can just read the lines casually, and it’s okay to say something or nothing without reading the lines—anyway, there is post-dubbing.

At that time, Liang Jiahui didn't dare to talk nonsense, he still read his lines in Mandarin with a strong Cantonese accent, but just like this, he had just played a two-sentence rivalry with Liu Xiaoqing nainai, and Liu Xiaoqing nainai just yelled "ka"!Liang Jiahui was surprised at the time, thinking that she was not feeling well or something, but after Liu Xiaoqing stood up, she heard her say this-"I don't understand Liang Jiahui's lines. If I don't understand his words, I can't follow him. Pronouns to make the corresponding perfect response!"

These words shocked Liang Jiahui at the time!He never thought that the actor industry could be so dedicated!At that time, he didn't despise or find Liu Xiaoqing nainai annoyed in his heart, but he really felt that the mainland actor Nima Na was simply too dedicated!Generally, actors from Hong Kong and Hong Kong only need to stylized themselves to perform their own expressions at this time, but if you look at actors from mainland China, they all have to make corresponding subtle expressions according to the lines of the other party and the expression when they read the lines. This Nima is too good to be good, is there any reason!It was because of this incident that Leung Ka Fai practiced Mandarin hard during filming. At the end, his Mandarin was much more standard than that of many people in Lingnan Province in mainland China!

It can be said that this kind of professional acting environment in mainland China, where almost all the actors are from majors, and everyone has the most basic academic skills, this kind of feeling of acting against each other is simply more enjoyable than having sex with women!It's like when an athlete participates in a competition, the people who cooperate with him are no longer various amateur players but all professional players or even all-stars, that kind of smooth and smooth feeling that makes people feel in a mess !

After thinking about this, Leung Ka Fai decided to fly to Shanghai to have a look first no matter what, to find out how this "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is going to be filmed...

Two days later, when Liang Jiahui came to Shanghai, when he came to the office of the main creator, in front of Wang Fulin and other directors, and heard what Jia Hongjian said together with his agent, he was dumbfounded.After a long while, he asked Jia Hongjian before his manager could figure it out: "This movie will take 4 years? Four years?" Yes, this is too scary?What kind of drama in Hong Kong can be filmed for four years?Shooting for four months is considered a big production, okay?It's normal for a star like Liu Dehua to take on five or six plays a year, okay?For Hong Kong actors, shooting a film for one year is enough for people to think about it for a long time. How about four years?Is this going crazy?After four years of acting in this play, the result is that there is basically no way to perform in Hong Kong for four years. Then what will happen to the acting career?

At this time, I heard Jia Hongjian say: "The investment of our film is 2 million yuan. All of it is my personal investment. After the filming is completed, I will go to the United States to find George Lucas's industrial light and magic team. It is estimated that it will cost about 1000 million U.S. dollars, or less than 35 million yuan, to do the post-production computer special effects of this play. Moreover, although we are shooting a TV series this time, we will not use cameras to shoot, but Use a professional camera, use [-]mm film, and make a completely cinematic TV series. Doesn’t Mr. Liang want to try such a TV series with huge investment and exquisite beauty? It's too boring, sometimes I do something crazy, so I can have a lot of memories when I get old, isn't it?"

Invest two hundred million?Then the special effects will cost 5000 million?This is a big investment that Hong Kong people can't imagine!You must know that in this era, the highest-grossing film in Hong Kong is only 2 to [-] million Hong Kong dollars. Even Spielberg's "Terminator [-]" and "Jurassic Park" are only tens of millions. box office only!Hong Kong's film investment is basically several million, at most tens of millions!This kind of investment of hundreds of millions is unimaginable!Moreover, the addition of TV dramas with movie quality really made Liang Jiahui tempted. The only thing is four years...is this too long?

"On the other hand, has Mr. Liang thought about the future of Hong Kong and Hong Kong movies?" At this time, Jia Hongjian suddenly asked.This question really made Liang Jiahui stupid. He didn't know how to ask: "What does Mr. Jia mean?" Do you want to immigrate to Canada? After they immigrate, will they make films in Hong Kong and then invest in them? After the brain drain in Hong Kong, it is foreseeable that Hong Kong films will go downhill within three to four years. Facing the situation where there are no films to shoot at all, what is Mr. Liang going to do?"

Jia Hongjian threw out the future information he knew best as a reborn person as a big bomb... (to be continued)rq
