Chapter 752: The Core of Comedy (Daily Change 12,000~)
Regarding Wu Jianye's request, Chen Hong didn't say anything, but asked carefully.
"Then in the future in Yanjing, can I still find you as Director Wu?"
Wu Jianye smiled slightly and said: "Of course, if anything happens, you can still come to me!"
Chen Hong felt a little disappointed. Was it just when something happened?
But she didn't say anything in the end. It's still early for Chen Hong. As long as there is a chance, she will not give up!
In fact, there is only one week left for the filming of "The World of Chu Xing" in Yecheng. The week goes by very quickly, especially since the next few days are basically just reshoots.
"Click!"
On this day, with Wu Jianye's call to stop, the filming of "Chu Xing's World" in Yecheng officially ended!
"Okay, let's go back to the hotel to clean up first. The crew has made a reservation at the hotel in the evening. Let's have a good celebration and then return to Beijing!" Wu Jianye stood up and announced!
"Yeah, long live!" Many people shouted happily.
No matter how good Yecheng is, it is not as good as my own home. Most of the people here are from Yanjing, or have already settled in Yanjing, so naturally they all want to go back as soon as possible.
The crew behind the scenes stayed behind and began to pack up the filming equipment, which would then be packed and sent back to Yanjing.
Wu Jianye and Zhao Fei found Director Ma of the community!
"Oh, Director Wu, I didn't expect time to fly by so fast. In the blink of an eye, three months passed by like this!" Director Ma looked very happy when he saw Wu Jianye.
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Thanks to Director Ma's help during this period, otherwise we would not have been able to shoot so smoothly!"
The existence of Director Ma helped the crew solve a lot of unnecessary troubles. Wu Jianye's thanks are sincere.
Zhao Fei took out a red envelope and handed it to Director Ma without leaving any trace. Director Ma just put his hand on the red envelope, and the smile on his face immediately blossomed, and his smile became even brighter!
"I hope that Director Wu will have the opportunity to visit his hometown again in the future, and we will definitely entertain Director Wu well!" Director Ma said with a smile.
Wu Jianye said: "There is a chance!"
Then both parties shook hands and said goodbye!
Wu Jianye and Zhao Fei returned to the hotel, took a shower, then met up with the rest of the crew and headed to the hotel!
In the hotel, everyone toasted together to celebrate the end of the filming mission in Coconut City. After nearly three months of getting along, most of the people still had good friendships.
For example, Zhang Guoli and Wang Zhiwen had a good friendship, and they met often after returning to Yanjing.
Because of his character and identity, Zhou Xingchi only had a good relationship with Zhang Guoli and invited Zhang Guoli to go to Xiangjiang when he had time.
Everyone has already experienced the separation and reunification of the crew, and there is no overly enthusiastic performance. However, you can still see some clues as to whether the atmosphere of a crew is good or bad.
Some crews are just filming. In private, the actors may not necessarily be able to have good friendships with each other, and there may even be situations where they suppress each other.
But some crews are different. Under the management of a strong director or actor, everyone may be able to develop good friendships.
As the director of this crew, Wu Jianye has absolute authority, and no actor dares to stab Wu Jianye's crew. Even Zhou Xingchi, an actor with many personal ideas, has many opinions when facing Wu Jianye.
A lot of pressure!
"Director Wu, I learned a lot from being able to film under your hands this time!" Zhou Xingchi came to Wu Jianye with a wine glass and said seriously.
Wu Jianye laughed and said: "Xingzai, you are a comedian with very own ideas. Through this period of observation, I also know that you have many ideas of your own. In fact, you can work hard in the direction of being a director!"
Zhou Xingchi's eyes lit up and he smiled: "Director Wu, do you also think I can be a director?"
Wu Jianye nodded and said: "Of course, I believe that you will become a very great director in the future, but your comedy style is not something that ordinary actors can control. You may not be able to feel it now, but wait for the audience
Once you're used to your acting style, even if you find other actors to star in your movie, you still won't be able to achieve the achievements of your own starring role."
Needless to say, director Zhou Xingchi’s skills, but Zhou Xingchi still has some limitations, as Wu Jianye just said.
In fact, as a reborn person, Wu Jianye, like many later movie fans, regrets that he will never see a movie starring Zhou Xingchi again.
If possible, Wu Jianye still hopes that Zhou Xingchi can always be active in front of the camera like Cheng Long!
Wu Jianye's words made Zhou Xingchi fall into deep thought, but this kind of contemplation did not last too long. Now Zhou Xingchi is at the peak of his creation, and it is impossible to simply work behind the scenes, so these are still just for fashion.
morning.
"I will remember what you said, Director Wu!" Zhou Xingchi finally said.
Wu Jianye nodded and said, "If you encounter any difficulties in Xiangjiang in the future, you can call me directly!"
Zhou Xingchi immediately showed a happy smile. Although Wu Jianye is not in Xiangjiang, his influence in Xiangjiang is definitely unmatched by anyone. With Wu Jianye's words, Zhou Xingchi is basically in Hong Kong.
"Thank you, Director Wu, for your consideration."
Then the two talked about comedy creation.
Wu Jianye said: "The core of comedy is actually tragedy, but this tragedy is well covered up through contrasting expressions and the actors' performances. A comedy movie that makes the audience laugh after watching it is
A successful comedy movie, but if the audience can still have some aftertaste after laughing, then it will be an excellent movie."
"Comedy movies that bring laughter to tears, I think are the most successful comedy movies!"
"Of course, if a comedy movie is forced to be sensational for the sake of the so-called tragic undertone, then the movie is bound to fail!"
"I hope you can think carefully about this issue in your future creative journey!"
Everyone has their own analysis of comedy movies, Wu Jianye has his own ideas, Zhou Xingchi also has his own ideas, but the fundamental of a comedy movie is to let the audience release their depressed mood. As for the undertone of tragedy, it needs
The audience can experience it themselves, rather than the creator deliberately sensationalizing it.
For example, later comedy sketches always like to forcefully sensationalize the scene in the final stage, which is very embarrassing!
In Wu Jianye's opinion, the three best comedy movies are "The Truman Show", "Westward Journey" and "The King of Comedy"!
Their foundations are actually tragic.
Truman lived the first half of his life under the director's arrangements, but even if he walked out of that door, so what?
Do you think that he can live his life completely according to his own wishes?
Obviously not!
You must know that Truman was already the most famous star in the world at that time. Maybe the audience would applaud Truman when he opened the door because of his bravery.
But when Truman truly lives beside them, everyone will look at Truman with a special eye. If Truman does something that does not meet their imagination of Truman, then
The overwhelming accusations at that time may make Truman, who has never experienced too much hardship, collapse!
Not to mention "Westward Journey", the life of Sun Wukong in "Westward Journey" is a tragedy. He was reincarnated as the Supreme Treasure, but could not have his own love.
When I finally let go of Zixia, it was a heart- and lung-tearing pain!
Even in the end, was it really because Zhizunbao had figured it out and wanted to protect Monk Tang from studying in the West?
no!
The Supreme Treasure just wants to use Sun Wukong's ability to rescue Fairy Zixia...
As for Zhou Xingchi's "The King of Comedy" which is similar to an autobiography, this is especially true. Yin Tianchou is also a tragic figure!
One sentence: I support you!
Many people will be moved by their love when they first see this scene, but they have never thought about it, does Yin Tianchou have that ability?
He probably likes Piao Piao, but he can't guarantee Piao Piao's future. That sentence, "I will support you," really touched countless people.
But the actual situation is that a middle-aged man is helpless. What should he do to support Piaopiao?
Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea will become everything in their lives. At that time, love may change its color...
"Thank you, Director Wu, for your guidance. In fact, when I was filming "The World of Chu Xing," I was thinking, what kind of person is Chu Xing?"
Zhou Xingchi thought for a while and said.
Wu Jianye laughed and said, "Chu Xing is a pitiful man!"
Zhou Xingchi nodded and said, "I think so too!"
Then the two looked at each other and smiled.
The two chatted for a while, and Zhang Guoli also ran over: "Director Wu, I have never thanked you properly!"
Wu Jianye chuckled and said: "Okay, I have heard a lot of thank you words during this period. No need to say it again. When I go back, I will read more about the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. Next, the company will film a TV series about the Qing Dynasty.
, you will be the starring role then!"
When Zhang Guoli heard this, the smile on his face became even brighter: "Director Wu, what you said is true!"
Wu Jianye joked: "If you don't believe it, I can find someone else!"
"Believe it, believe it!" Zhang Guoli said quickly.
Wu Jianye asked Zhang Guoli to see clearly the story of the Qianlong period, and naturally he had to prepare for the TV series "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo"!
If Wu Jianye's memory is correct, the TV series "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo" actually started the domestic drama of historical themes.
And Zhang Guoli, Li Baotian, and Wang Gang are actually the earliest three-person golden partners!
In fact, when Zhang Guoli was filming "Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan", he got inspiration from this TV series.
"There is a role in this TV series that is very suitable for Deng Jie. When you return to Yanjing, don't forget to inform Deng Jie!" Wu Jianye continued to ask.
Zhang Guoli quickly smiled and said: "The relationship is great, we are a husband and wife team!"
Wu Jianye laughed and said, "Don't worry, you two can't become husband and wife this time!"
Zhang Guoli: "..."
Zhou Xingchi laughed and said: "It seems that some people are getting jealous!"
Zhang Guoli smiled and said: "It's okay, we are professional actors!"
After the two of them finished chatting, Zhou Xingchi said with some regret: "After we say goodbye this time, I don't know when we can see each other again!"
Wu Jianye laughed and said: "Soon, when the movie is released in Hong Kong, I will take the crew to Hong Kong to promote it!"
The film will be promoted throughout China, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, Europe and the United States, and it will still be a tiring process.
Everyone was naturally very happy when they heard this. This is actually the reason why everyone is willing to participate in Wu Jianye's movies. After all, Wu Jianye's movies are not only released in China.
Wu Jianye finally came to Huang Xiaoli and Zhang Mingzi.
Compared to Huang Xiaoli, Zhang Mingzi played more roles in the play, and Zhang Mingzi's performance also made Wu Jianye very satisfied.
"Teacher Zhang, what are your plans next?" Wu Jianye asked.
Zhang Mingzi thought for a while and said: "I have no plans, let's go back to Shanghai!"
Wu Jianye said: "Teacher Zhang, do you have any ideas? Back to Yanjing, our Tangting culture lacks actors like you!"
There are quite a few actors from the younger generation of Tangting Culture, such as actors like Jiang Xian, Ge You, Zhang Guoli, and Wang Zhiwen, but actors from the older generation are still scarce.
Actors of the older generation are relatively content with the status quo. Now they can live a good life in various studios or drama troupes, and they don't have too many ideas like young actors.
Therefore, every time the filming of a new drama of Tang Ting Culture starts, it is very difficult to find old actors.
Needless to say, Zhang Mingzi’s acting skills, coupled with her life experiences, have enriched her life experience. Having such an actor join Tangting Culture is also a good thing for Tangting Culture!
Before Zhang Mingzi said anything, Huang Xiaoli looked very happy next to him.
"Mingzi, I think Director Wu's suggestion is good. Anyway, you are not very happy in Shanghai. You might as well change the environment!"
They have been old friends for many years, and no one knows Zhang Mingzi's situation better than Huang Xiaoli.
Zhang Mingzi also thought about it, and then said with a smile: "Since Director Wu is interested in it, naturally I, an old guy, have no objection!"
Wu Jianye laughed and said: "Then I will welcome Teacher Zhang here with tea instead of wine!"
Zhang Mingzi didn’t drink, so naturally Wu Jianye didn’t know how to toast!
Wang Zhiwen finally came to Wu Jianye and still expressed his gratitude, but still talked about his new play.
When Wu Jianye took over the filming of "The World of Chu Xing", Wu Jianye had already asked him to read Wang Shuo's novel. Just two days ago, Zhao Baogang called him and invited him to star in Wang Shuo's novel.
The TV series "It's Too Good" was adapted from three novels: "You'll Die If You Have Too Much", "I Will Never Lose My Love", and "No One Applauds"!
This TV series was broadcast in another time and space in 1994, but because of Wu Jianye's appearance, when he was in Yanjing, Wu Jianye found Zhao Baogang and asked him to find a screenwriter to adapt this TV series.
Now this TV series is naturally ahead of schedule.
"After you go back, just contact Baosteel. There must be a preparation process there. As for "The World of Chu Xing", if you need to reshoot the footage, I will call you!" Wu Jian
