Chapter 1,205 The prodigal son cuts through youth like a blade
Some things are just so weird.
The movie Li Yi was thinking of was called "A Lang's Story", and the male protagonist in it could be said to be definitely a scumbag among scumbags.
Let’s not talk about the cheating on my wife when she was pregnant. After she was found out, I beat my wife when I got home, and she was beaten until she had a miscarriage.
The key is that his wife is the second generation of rich people, she can be called rich and beautiful, and she married him despite her family's objections, but ended up with a bad person.
There are even more outrageous things to come.
This is definitely not a positive character, prodigal son?
No, that's not a prodigal, that's a complete rotten person.
Logically speaking, such a character should be scolded by countless people, but unfortunately, under the shaping of the director and the influence of the actor's own charm, although everyone knows that this person is a big scumbag and a scumbag.
Bad people, but they are hard to hate. This is a very magical thing.
It's no wonder that Chen Weijie and other veteran actors all think that Li Yi is completely out of his mind.
But society is like this sometimes. A good man doesn't have a good wife, and a lazy man marries a spoiled one.
For example, many young people think that Young and Dangerous are cool, but when they grow older, they will understand that Young and Dangerous are really the bad guys at the bottom of society.
"Xuexiang, why do you think so many girls always fall in love with prodigal sons when they are young?" Li Yi looked at Chu Xuexiang and asked with a smile.
Chu Xuexiang rolled her eyes and said, "How did I know? And why are you asking me? I don't like prodigal sons."
"Hahaha!" Everyone couldn't help laughing.
"Actually, there are many old Hong Kong movies in which rich girls fall in love with prodigal sons. This may have a lot to do with the social environment of Hong Kong Island in the past, right? In those days, many young and Dangerous guys, no matter how bad they were, still had girlfriends.
I remember it was said in a movie before that every woman may fall in love with a prodigal son when she is young, because they are unruly, unrestrained, freedom-loving, and pretentious; they drive motorcycles roaring through the silence of the late night streets,
When they are helpless, they take a deep breath of cigarette and then smash it on the ground. They are usually poor, so they will break the glass of the clothing store and steal the dress that their girlfriend likes. They have many women but only miss one woman or they have
One woman misses many women..." Li Yi said with a smile.
"This is true, but what movie is about blowing up the glass of a clothing store and stealing the clothes that your girlfriend likes?" Chen Weijie looked at Li Yi curiously.
Li Yi waved his hand and said, "That's not important. What's important is, what do you think of making a movie like this?"
"Isn't it a bit old-fashioned? After all, this kind of routine has been used too many times in the past." Chen Weijie shook his head.
"I think if I follow what you said, Li Yi, it would be quite innovative to film a story about a prodigal son who cannot turn back." Chen Wen had a different view.
"You men!" Chu Xuexiang said contemptuously.
"If a man is not bad, a woman will not love him. This has been the case since ancient times. Is there anything strange about it?" Lin Yunbin said nonchalantly.
"If you are young, fall in love with a prodigal, he will give you infinite wonderful things.
If you are young, don't fall in love with a prodigal, only a dull life can be exciting." Li Yi suddenly said with emotion.
Everyone couldn't help but ponder this sentence carefully. Not to mention, it was indeed very interesting.
"But there's still that problem. In a movie like this, it's destined that the male protagonist is not a good person, and he is definitely the kind of prodigal son who will make many viewers hate him. So what kind of actor should be used to play such a role in order to maximize his performance?
How far can we downplay this disgust?" Li Yi asked with a smile.
"It's very simple, find a good man to play the role, find an actor popular with female audiences to play the role, and find a charming actor to play the role." Chu Xuexiang said with a smile.
The next moment everyone's eyes turned to Chen Weijie.
"Why are you looking at me like this?" Chen Weijie suddenly asked helplessly.
"Ajie, you are very suitable." Chen Wen couldn't help but say.
"Yes, it is indeed very suitable!" Lin Yunbin also had to admit that if the current entertainment industry wants to find an actor who plays a negative role and is difficult to hate, Chen Weijie is indeed worthy of it.
As the veteran king of Hong Kong, Chen Weijie has developed very well not only in film, television and singing. The key is that Chen Weijie is indeed the kind of "good man" who is recognized as such!
Since his debut, there has been very little negative news. There were some scandals when he was young, but he has been secretly married for many years, but there has never been any more scandals.
Although his secret marriage caused a sensation in the fan circle after it was leaked, it also made many fans like him even more.
Of course, part of it is because he was an idol star when he was young, but now, he is an idol and a veteran king with both abilities.
Young people may not like idols to have wives, but their former fans and movie fans have long since grown up and are no longer young, so they understand better that in such a big dyeing vat as the entertainment industry, Chen Weijie can continue to do so for many years.
, how difficult it is.
Therefore, as Chen Wen said, Chen Weijie is very suitable for playing such a role.
"By the way, I still don't know what the specific story is?" Chen Weijie did not refuse. It was just a joke just now, but he was quite interested in the story about "The Prodigal Son Turning Back" that Li Yi told.
curious.
So does everyone else.
In fact, in Hong Kong movies, the drama about the prodigal son turning back is really not new. Let’s not talk about Hong Kong movies. Now, after many years of development, what types of film and television works have not been developed?
Doesn’t it mean that old routines are no longer useful? Which movie doesn’t have old routines?
Where in the world are there so many innovative things?
But the old routine also depends on how to arrange new ideas. The prodigal son will not be replaced by gold, which has been a proverb since ancient times. Many movies also follow this routine, but Li Yi's story of the prodigal son cannot turn back, or it is useless to say that the prodigal son can't turn back.
, even if it is a certain degree of subversion and innovation on this basis.
But if this kind of movie is made, will the audience accept it?
If it were anyone else, they might have killed it without saying a word, but if the person who proposed this story was Li Yi, a great director and screenwriter who has never failed, then it would be completely different.
On the contrary, it made them more and more curious about what kind of story it was.
Li Yi couldn't help but smile a little. Not to mention, stories are always old, but some stories, even if they are ten or twenty years later, will still not feel outdated.
Of course, if Li Yi were to shoot it, the quality would definitely not be the same as that of the old movie in my memory.
Hong Kong films were indeed brilliant back then, but in fact they were very rough. It didn't matter at that time, but in this era, it would be a big problem.
