He looked at Zhang Zhong with a shocked expression, and then at Luo Yu, "Do you really want this guy to play Fugui?"
"Do you think Teacher Luo is not suitable?" Zhang Zhong asked with a smile.
Shen Jian shook his head, "I didn't think of Fugui before, but now that you say it, he really means Fugui. This guy has a ruffian look on his face, and his laziness is soaked into his bones. He should be no problem."
Luo Yu is not young, but he takes good care of himself, so he should be able to wear makeup and play Fugui.
Zhang Zhong saw that Luo Yu was silent and asked, "Teacher Luo?"
"Ah?" Luo Yu, who was in a daze, came back to his senses, "Of course I have a schedule."
Feng Ziyan smiled and joked, "Even if you don't have a schedule, you still have to make time for it. This is "Alive"."
Yes, this is "Alive".
All the actors present were envious of Luo Yu, envious that he could be chosen by Zhang Zhong to play the role of Fugui.
Putting aside the literary value of "To Live", there are very few traditional literatures with national significance like "To Live" in China.
Although the filming of the movie has not started yet, those present here have no doubt that it will be a blockbuster and well-received movie.
If the movie can be made well, it may be a movie engraved in the history of Chinese movies.
Guan Bao licked his lips, looking like he was hesitant to speak.
In fact, he wanted to recommend himself, hoping that Zhang Zhong would let him direct "Alive".
Not to mention Guan Bao, any other director would never reject a work like "Alive".
Even Shen Jian is ready to make a move. In addition to being a comedian, Shen Jian is also a director. He has directed movies and staged plays.
But Shen Jian also knows that "To Live" is not something he can get involved in, because it is impossible for him to film "To Live" well.
Guan Bao is different. He is a director of artistic films and can be said to be his professional counterpart.
Moreover, he likes the novel "To Live" very much. He has read this novel as many times as "Xu Sanguan Sells Blood".
However, Guan Bao still has no nerve to mention it directly. After all, he has already received two works from Zhang Zhong, one is "Xu Sanguan Sells Blood" and the other is "The Soul-Breaking Gun". It was these two movies that made him start from The director who was originally a little famous has become a very important figure in the film and television industry.
In the adaptation of these two films, it can be said that Guan Bao took advantage of Zhang Zhong, because the adaptation fees for these two novels were not high at that time.
Zhang Zhong didn't notice Guan Bao's expression. He smiled and said to Luo Yu, "This is a temporary plan I came up with after seeing you. It may take a while for the specific matters to be put on the agenda, but don't worry, I will It depends on the person, and I will notify you later to come over and discuss it in detail."
"It's okay, it's okay, no rush, no rush, my schedule will definitely be left to you." Luo Yu said with a smile.
Luo Yu was even more happy when he heard that Zhang Zhong came up with this plan after seeing him. What does this mean? It means that Zhang Zhong is really optimistic about him and thinks that he is particularly suitable for playing the role of Fugui.
"You don't have to go out of your way to accommodate us. After all, "Alive" is not a big drama. It should be shot quickly and it won't take you long. If there are other announcements, don't reject it just because of us. There is no need." Zhang Zhong smiled. said.
Zhang Zhong is telling the truth. Although Fugui is the absolute protagonist in "Alive" and has many roles, the film itself is not technically difficult.
The most difficult part to shoot was probably the scene where Fugui was captured as a young man. Although the fighting was not intense, it was still a war scene, and the personnel scheduling alone was higher than other scenes.
However, this section can only be regarded as the interlude of this novel, and it is not long. If there is a lazy director, he may just let the actors perform in the studio and then do the post-production.
Of course, if someone actually took on this movie, they probably wouldn’t dare to do it.
Zhang Zhong has read Lao Mouzi's version of "Alive". Compared with the original novel, the ending of the movie version is a little softer, unlike in the novel where only Fugui and a cow are left dead.
It should be a concession to reality. After all, there are many things in this movie that cannot be filmed. Even if it dares to be filmed, it may not be broadcast.
And even though concessions were made, the film was eventually banned, and it took many years before it was finally released.
Yu Hua once teased Lao Mouzi about this matter.
Because Lao Mouzi once confidently told Yu Hua that he knew the country's restrictions and bottom lines in this area better, and they would change it and ensure that there would be no problem.
Later, Lao Mouzi's face was beaten so hard that the movie was made, but it still didn't pass the review.
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhong looked at Guan Bao again and asked, "Is there anything that needs to be changed in the book "Alive"?"
Hearing Zhang Zhong ask himself this, Guan Bao felt complicated. Of course he wanted to tell Zhang Zhong that there was no need to change it at all, just keep filming it, but reality told him that this was impossible. If this novel wanted to be made into a movie to meet the audience,
Then it must be changed.
Guan Bao considered the sentence and said, "There are still some modifications that need to be made, but as long as you put some effort into avoiding everything that can be avoided, you shouldn't need to modify too much."
"Oh, really?" Zhang Zhong said with a smile, "If I were to change it for you, how would you change it?"
Guan Bao sat up straight and said with piercing eyes, "If you want me to take the picture, I will change the way Fugui's father died, to illness caused by overwork or something else. The way of death in the original work is really inappropriate.
Fortunately, it was shown in the movie. The part where Chun was born and died in the middle also needed to be modified a little..."
"Are you celebrating your death?" Zhang Zhong asked.
"Youqing..." Guan Bao thought about it seriously and said, "No need to change, just shoot according to the original work."
Hearing what Guan Bao said, Zhang Zhong became interested.
He didn't know much about China's radio and television censorship. From what Guan Bao said, it should be a little more relaxed than on Earth.
"What about the deaths of Fengxia, Jiazhen, Kugen and Erxi later?" Zhang Zhong continued to ask.
"Jia Zhen, Ku Gen, Er Xi's death does not need to be touched, but Feng Xia's death may need to be considered," Guan Bao said.
"Where's the boiled steel?"
"Boiled Steel may need to be modified, but there is no need to delete it, just make a few modifications." Guan Bao said confidently.
Zhang Dian nodded, "If you put it this way, it's not bad. Then..."
"Teacher Zhang, I know a lot about the censorship system. If you are really worried, why not let me take the photo?" Guan Bao finally couldn't help but said on his own initiative.
Zhang Zhong was startled, what Guan Bao said was exactly the same as what Lao Mouzi said to Yu Hua back then.
Such a big flag is too easy to be slapped in the face.
