Chapter 24 Baldy Xu Wants to Film a Mythical Drama
The movie has not been completed, and the actor's task has been completed. As for whether the movie can be completed and whether it can be released in the future, all this is unknown.
The free and easy Zhouxun at the final banquet was laughing and clamoring throughout the whole process, making the atmosphere noise.
Li Tang mentioned a cup to her: "Sister Xiaoxun, see you again if you are destined to be!"
Zhou Xun smiled and said in a whisper: "The night rain in the cold river, old friends in the rivers and lakes, why do you have to know each other when you meet?"
Hey, when did you become so educated?
Li Tang heard it familiar, but he didn't react for a moment.
Zhou Xun saw him look stupid and laughed: "I don't even know "New Dragon Inn"."
Oh, it turns out it's a movie line, and it has nothing to do with being cultured.
After the song ended, everyone left, and Zhou Xun rushed to the crew of "Daming Palace Ci" to report. It is said that training is required before filming begins.
Li Tang also returned to normal life.
Because he starred in two movies in succession, he had a role in the large-scale drama "Shang Yang" re-arranged by the drama center, and he was a real role.
"Shang Yang" is a traditional drama in the drama center, similar to "Teahouse" of the Beijing People's Art Theater. The starring actors are all old artists in the center. Li Tang plays a supporting role in it and is considered to be the representative of the young actors in the center.
The rehearsal task is not too heavy. He usually goes home to spend weekends with his father. He also transported the old Harley motorcycle back to the countryside, and did a major repair and maintenance. He spent nearly 10,000 yuan to buy it through his father's relationship.
Zhang Hua's yellow card has re-listed.
Due to the ban on motorcycles, local motorcycle license plates have risen rapidly, and the price has doubled compared to last year, almost the same as the price of automobile license plates for auction, and there is a trend of continuing to rise.
Lao Li was very curious about his hands-on ability, and did not ask the questions to the end when facing his son's perfunctory answer. In Lao Li's eyes, his son became sensible and promising day by day, and he became satisfied, and nothing else mattered.
Life is calm and occasionally I receive calls from my ex-girlfriend. She actually joined the crew of "Da Ming Palace Poems" and played Princess Anle Li Guer. She knew that Li Tang and Zhou Xun had just collaborated on filming "Suzhou River" and always talked about it.
When it comes to Zhouxun, there is always a sour smell.
The two are about the same age, one is from a professional and the other is a wild path, but their status is one level different. Zhou Xun's young man Taiping is considered the third female lead in the play, and she is just a supporting role. And they all play it.
The heroine of the movie is still running around the crew to make soy sauce, and she felt envious and jealous!
My ex-girlfriend is very busy and has no time to send me that to my house. One night, Li Tang suddenly shivered and woke up from his dream. He changed into wet shorts. He couldn't help but feel sad: Should I find a girlfriend?
After being depressed for a long time, he needs to be released. In addition to increasing his exercise volume, he no longer refuses Xu's invitation to eat flower wine.
This guy has been very proud recently. After the performance of "The Color of Stocks", this drama representing the characteristics of Shanghai humanities was like "Under the Eaves of Shanghai" and "Seventy-Two Tenants" that year, and it was praised for a while.
On that day, Li Tang came to a KTV and opened the door of the private room. Wow, it was dark and careless inside. The exciting disco music was only the projection hanging on the wall flashed and faint light, and a group of men and women were dancing wildly.
.
Li Tang thought he had gone wrong, and was about to withdraw, when he heard Xu Guangtou's voice: "Li Tang, come on, here."
I looked closely and saw that this guy was wearing a fancy hat today. No wonder he was not easy to recognize without reflection.
The music stopped and the lights started. Li Tang looked at the group of wives, except for the group of wives, all of them were fox friends who usually played with Xu Bald Head.
After saying hello and sat down, Li Tang asked, "Didn't you say that Old Fu is here?"
"He is the Liberation Army uncle, it's inconvenient." Xu bald man wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "In addition, you know his family's door, and he has come to Shanghai."
Old Fu is Xu Guangtou's classmate and good friend. He debuted very early and made the movie "Daughter Red" as soon as he graduated. At that time, Zhou Xun was a supporting role, and he was the leading male lead. Later, as an outstanding graduate of Shanghai Theatre Academy, he was
It was assigned to the military art troupe.
In the 1980s and 1990s, the military art troupe was very popular. College students like him were treated as officers and could also solve housing.
As for his family, he is also an alumnus of Shanghai Theatre Academy. He is one year older than Li Tang. He is a beautiful and gentle girl, the kind of good wife and mother. The old Fu returned to his alma mater as a representative of outstanding students and took a look at it at first sight.
She was recruited into the art troupe by using public services and private affairs. She was the first to get close to the water. She didn't expect that the gentle senior sister was very tough in her bones and was very frugal by nature.
This time, the old Fu came to Shanghai to shoot a TV series, but he didn't expect that the senior sister would come with her.
"Hahaha."
Li Tang laughed gloatingly and said, "When you look back, say hello to them and see when they have time, I'll treat them to dinner."
"Okay, I'll call tomorrow."
Nowadays, KTVs are popular with red wine and Sprite, and foreign wine and green tea. On the one hand, they sell more, but on the other hand, they are afraid of drinking fake wine.
Li Tang didn't drink this and took a Corona beer toast.
After three rounds of drinking, Xu Guangtou, who was slightly drunk, pulled him aside and said mysteriously: "Someone asked me to film."
"Movie?"
"No, TV series."
Xu Bald Head may have felt that compared to Li Tang's filming movies, he lost the price of filming TV series by himself, and hurriedly said, "Does Fan Xiaotian know?"
"have no idea."
"Tsk, the deputy editor-in-chief of Zhongshan magazine!"
Writing workers are easily respected. "Zhongshan" is a well-known domestic magazine. The title of an associate editor is enough to make people look at it.
"oh!"
Although I had never heard of this name, Li Tang still looked respectful.
"He has now come out of a magazine and set up a cultural and artistic company to shoot a TV series on the subject of mythology."
"This is OK!" Li Tang's eyes lit up.
The mythological themes have always been very popular, such as "Journey to the West", "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", "Jigong", etc., which are all the memories of their generation. He even thinks it is similar to "The Strange Talk of the Heavenly Book", "Culture Wa" and "Nezha".
And familiar cartoons can also be remade into movies and TV series.
"What myth?" he asked again.
"It is related to "Journey to the West", so it is considered a prequel story of "Journey to the West". " Xu Guangtou said in a uncertain way.
"You play Monkey King?"
"No, the prequel of "Journey to the West" tells the story of gods. Monkey King hasn't jumped out of the crack of the stone yet. Listen to Mr. Fan, it's probably a series of stories. I've just put on a shelf. He's going to find a few Hong Kong people.
Screenwriters and mainland screenwriters create together.”
"Tsk, what can Hong Kong screenwriters write?" Li Tang said disdainfully.
Although Hong Kong movies and TV series have been highly praised in the mainland in recent years, he feels that this is caused by the cultural differences between the two places. In terms of cultural nature, artistry, and actors' acting skills, there is no level in the eyes of experts, just
Just watch the fun.
Xu bald head thoughtfully said: "I have thought about this too. On the one hand, it is probably to enhance the storyline; on the other hand, it may also be considered that the culture in Hong Kong is not broken and has experience in creating strange stories...
Anyway, just brainstorm!”
Although he likes to drink flowers and drinks to soak up girls, he still has a lot of artistic pursuits. Recently, he was originally planning to engage in avant-garde drama, but this mythological TV series still attracted him.
You should know that in the West, both Homer's Epic and ancient Greek mythology have been put on the art stage. Just like the domestic "Journey to the West", "The Investiture of the Gods", "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", "Jigong", etc., the artistic value is very high.
High.
Moreover, he did not have the vision of Li Tang surpassing the times. Nowadays, Chinese people are still looking up to foreign cultures and even Hong Kong and Taiwan cultures. He feels that a series of mythological and ghost films such as "A Chinese Ghost Story" and "The Legend of the White Snake" are still very mature.
of.
More importantly, or what he hid in his heart and didn't say it, over the past six months, he was inevitably filled with envy and jealousy as Li Tang made movies one after another. Although his drama was very successful
, he is even a strong contender for this year's Magnolia Award, but compared to movies, TV series, and dramas are still niche!
