Chapter 171 "Big Shot" Script (1/5)

The more national it is, the more world it is!

It is said that Lao Chen studied this sentence before "Farewell My Concubine" came up with...

This is all processed by later media. In fact, "Farewell My Concubine" is a very popular story by Li Bihua. Lao Chen doesn't like it at all. It took a year for producer Xu Feng to explain it to him...

Moreover, at the beginning, Lao Chen didn't want to use Gong Li, he thought Gong Li was Xiao Zhang's person...

Ahem, the above is excerpted from "Producer Xu Feng Talks Behind the Scenes"...

If "Farewell My Concubine" is successfully placed in every actor and every role.

Then the failure of "Mei Lanfang" is that it is inappropriate in everything, and it is disgusting everywhere.

Except for the role of Wang Xueqi, his performance is calm, but his every move brings out the pride, charm, character and sadness behind the glitz of the old actors.

Yu Shao's extras are also good. He was born into Chinese dramas and had similarities with Peking Opera. Although he didn't even look for a camera position when filming, his roles with Thirteen Yan are both good-looking, youthful, experienced and neutral, and have an opera-like atmosphere.

So, the most exciting thing is gone after the first twenty minutes...

Especially after Li Ming appeared...

Li Ming... is really too gentle to himself!

What's wrong with you losing 20 kilograms?

You are an actor!

Yin Zhi, the young Xiaodouzi in "Farewell My Concubine", is also the actor who is very popular in the early stage of the project establishment of "Mei Lanfang". Later, when he joined the group, his main task was to serve as a stage stand-in for Li Ming.

In the "Meilong Town", the full face shot appears, making people feel in various dramas. Yin Zhi is very thin, but Li Ming is a big guy, and his face is really big!

Unconsistency...

Especially inconsistent...

By the way, Orange Image found someone to write a soft article, and also "revealed" an international chapter. It was probably that International Chapter wanted to play the heroine of "Mei Lanfang". Mrs. Chen disagreed, and then the financial owner came to ask Old Chen to take care of his wife...

In fact, it’s just a black international chapter. Anyway, she’s so politically correct these days!

By the way, I made a lot of noise on donkey-hide gelatin. After the photography exhibition, donkey-hide gelatin was very popular...

I originally thought about black again and again!

Then, "Mei Lanfang" was released, and the box office on the first day was almost over 10 million, which was not as good as "Wuji" back then. The box office on the first day of "Wuji" was 11 million!

After so much publicity, the momentum has been so great that I never did "Save Mr. Wu" on the first day's box office...

Lu Xiaoran was almost relieved.

Of course, "Mei Lanfang" is positioned as an art film...

So, he won a box office of 42 million on the first weekend and then clamored to the public that "set the best results of Chinese art films in recent years"...

"Save Mr. Wu" closed at 18 million on the weekend, with a cumulative box office of 158 million...

There is no way, "Mei Lanfang" accounts for more than 50% of the screening...

Also, high-definition pirated online has been leaked.

In addition, it has been released for more than 10 days, and optimistically, the box office should be increased by another 30 to 50 million...

It is very likely to exceed 200 million.

Everyone knows that Mei Lanfang has lost...

...

Many people suspect that "Farewell My Concubine" was filmed on behalf of others, and this is a fallacy...

You will know that Old Chen is so talented when you go to "Young Brother Kai"!

Take a paragraph: When a person reaches thirteen years old, he thinks he is very important to the world, and the world is just ready to forgive your childishness.

Such sentences are everywhere, and they are so powerful that they can be read easily.

This was written by him in 1999!

"Young Brother Kai" is called "My Hongwei Ice Age" in Japan, and was rated as one of the best biography of that year by Japanese book reviewers!

I am really amazed at Chen Kai's prose style that makes a big move.

In fact, Lao Chen should be a literati.

Looking at all his works, the sense of logic is the worst, but the sense of art is the strongest.

When we watch a movie, we pay great attention to the narrative and completeness of the story.

But Lao Chen started with "The Promise", and the story has its beginning and end, but he can make a lot of analysis of his works. After listening to it, you will feel, Oh my God, it turns out to be so profound.

What's the use of this?

The emotional resonance we burst into should be in the cinema, not in the analysis.

Even the most profound story should have one or two points that hold the heartstrings of the audience.

You can't understand "Mulholland Road", but you just feel terrifying and anxious.

When watching Lao Chen’s movies, it was like following a senior intellectual to visit a museum. He walked along the way and cried when he was moved.

You are completely at a loss, but it just makes sense.

This is a selfish literati. His emotions will not be shared with you, or he doesn't want you to understand them at all.

Therefore, Lao Chen is really underestimated, and his level is not as good as it is. If his art form is replaced with written language, he may be a literary figure.

However, "Mei Lanfang" is really bad, it is not clear, and the logic is too bad!

...

Night, hotel room.

Lu Xiaoran sat on the sofa, and Xu Zheng, Yang Qing, and the three of them were discussing the matter.

First, we talked about the box office trend of "Mr. My" and then we talked about "Mei Lanfang":

"It's almost the same as expected, a huge mediocre momentum!"

"There is no way, there are too many restrictions. I have said a long time ago that "Mei Lanfang" is not easy to shoot!"

Now the topic has entered the topic of "Mei Lanfang". Who is better in the actors?

"I think Honglei can play it well, and he captured the spirit of a big intellectual like Qiu Rubai!"

"Teacher Wang Xueqi acted well!"

"Hey, why don't we praise Li Ming? He is the protagonist!"

Yang Qing glanced at Lu Xiaoran who was asking questions clearly and simply said, "He is really not good at acting. That plum orchid is like a stick!"

Lu Xiaoran smiled, not saying anything…

The topic changed: "Old Yang, why do I think you are so concerned about "Lost in the Road"? Where is your own script?"

Yang Qing scratched his head embarrassedly: "I don't think it's interesting, I don't want to do it anymore!"

“…Then do you have any new ideas?”

"Not yet. I'm now helping Brother Jiong to tinker with "Lost in the Road" and have also learned a lot. After this movie, I'm going to go home for a while..."

Lu Xiaoran nodded and asked, "Did you like Korean movies so much? Have you ever watched "The Fraud"?"

""The Fraud"? The Fraud directed by Choi Dong-hoon?"

Xu Zheng was very upset: "What Choi Dong-hoon? That's Kim Hye-soo's "The Crazy"!"

That's right, it's Kim Hye-soo's "Crazy"...

The plot of "The Crazy" movie is almost forgotten, but Ms. Jung played by Kim Hye-soo is perfect in her face and figure, especially her stunning beauty, which is so charming, and her stunning weight...

Lu Xiaoran is very dissatisfied. I am talking about movies, but are you thinking about women?

"Hey! I'm talking serious!"

"…Okay, you said!"

"After watching "The Fraud", I thought of a story..."

Then, Lu Xiaoran told the general story of "The Big Man". It was over and looked at Yang Qing: "Are you interested in this? The script has been initially improved and the project is also being promoted..."

Yang Qing's eyes lit up: "It's a bit similar to "Police Story"?"

"Yes, but the hero is not that good at fighting, and there are many friends around who have good intentions... Of course, the ending is all about justice over evil!"

Yang Qing tilted his head and thought for a long time, then asked again: "You are going to shoot this movie yourself, are you going to shoot it?"

"...I was originally going to shoot it myself, but I was particularly fascinated by another script recently... and I always filmed police and gangsters, crime themes, so I'm prone to getting tired of it. However, I will definitely act like Zhao Tai!"

Yang Qing nodded: "Yes, I'll go back to find the company's screenwriters to improve it..."

"Improve it as soon as possible. I'm going to find a Korean film director to take this script and shoot one, and then release it simultaneously in China and South Korea... This is called a dual-purpose book!"

Xu Zheng interrupted: "I don't quite understand, what does this script have to do with "The Fraud"?"

The scene was a bit awkward...

It’s impossible to say that “Big Man” is adapted from the Korean movie “Freeman”. The names of these two movies are very similar…

Yang Qing escaped: "...It's all criminal subjects!"

Then he asked, "One book is two-purpose? Will South Korea agree?"

"…I'm responsible for investment and production, and find a distribution company to help with issuance, why don't I agree?" After a pause, Lu Xiaoran added: "If it really needs to be done, we can be considered as cultural export!"
