Chapter 881: Love at First Sight (4000+ Chapters, Ask for Subscription~)
Zhang Yimou, who was bought after a few meals, stayed in the crew of "Eternal Night".
Regarding Zhang Yimou's remuneration, it also became a crew gossip and was reported by the reporter of "Popular Film".
Zhang Yimou's stay did help Wu Jianye, and in the following days, Wu Jianye, Zhang Yimou, Zhao Fei, and Guan Yu got together every night after the filming of the movie was over, and they got together to study the next day's shooting plan and the color of the movie.
At the same time, when filming during the day, Zhang Yimou can also help Wu Jianye train the actors, and after agreeing to be the art director of this movie, Zhang Yimou spent a night and read the script of the movie "Eternal Night".
Very knowledgeable about where the story is going.
The actors of the crew are very happy at this time, and they can accept the guidance of Wu Jianye and Zhang Yimou at the same time, which is a very unforgettable experience for them, especially for newcomer actors like Principal Gu and Yu Feihong.
What I'm going to shoot today is about Yu Feihong.
Yu Feihong, as the female number one in the movie, naturally has a lot of scenes, and what I want to shoot today is the scene where Yu Feihong came to Liangren County for the first time.
Yu Feihong, who was dressed in a white costume skirt, was like a fairy walking down above the nine heavens, holding a long sword, and walked in from the 'open door' of Liangren County.
The Liangren County was originally built according to the shape of the eight trigrams, and the eight city gates were respectively to deal with the opening of the door, the gate of shock, the gate of death, the gate of view, the gate of Du, the gate of injury, the gate of life, and the gate of rest.
The city gates that are open on weekdays are only open.
"Click!"
At this time, Wu Jianye suddenly stopped Yu Feihong's filming.
After Yu Feihong heard Wu Jianye's shout, she stopped her steps and looked at Wu Jianye with some doubts, just now she didn't think that there was a problem with her performance.
Wu Jianye walked up to Yu Feihong and said, "Your expression is wrong!"
Yu Feihong asked curiously: "But this Ye Ling'er's character is calm and calm?"
In the movie "Eternal Night", the heroine played by Yu Feihong is called Ye Ling'er, a quiet and calm female monk.
Wu Jianye shook his head and said: "If it is in other shots, there is no problem with your performance like this, but don't forget where this is, this is Liangren County, which is the most hated place for Ye Linger now, even if her personality is calm, there should be a trace of disgust in your eyes at this time!"
Yu Feihong thought about the setting in the script for a while, and then realized his mistake and apologized: "I'm sorry, Director Wu, I didn't understand the heart of this character!"
Wu Jianye waved his hand and said, "It's okay, just don't make this mistake again in the future!"
Yu Feihong nodded.
Wu Jianye returned to the camera and re-shot this shot.
Looking at Yu Feihong's performance this time, Wu Jianye nodded, and even Zhang Yimou on the side showed a satisfied expression.
"The vision of the academy is really good, this actress, if she can continue to perform like this, I believe that under the guidance of Lao Wu, she will become a good actress in the future!"
Gong Li, who was sitting next to Zhang Yimou, nodded in a complicated mood.
In fact, even Gong Li didn't expect Zhang Yimou to stay here, originally she thought that she came here to discuss with Wu Jianye about the release of the movie "Alive", but she didn't expect Zhang Yimou to become the art director of this movie in such a daze.
The so-called art direction is actually to help Wu Jianye in the color of the movie.
Because Chen Hong replaced Gong Li and starred in the movie "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", Gong Li's popularity in Xiangjiang did not reach the height of another time and space.
Although she is still one of the most popular actresses in Xiangjiang among domestic actresses.
"Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" was released last year, and achieved a box office of 48 million in Xiangjiang, more than 8 million more than another time and space, in fact, the plot of this movie is no different from the plot of another time and space, but compared to Gong Li in another time and space version, Chen Hong's performance is more open, and at the same time, there is also a box office bonus of Fengge Cinema, so this movie has more than 8 million box office.
At the same time, the movie "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" has also been released in China, and the box office is also good, as high as 50 million yuan!
This is entirely due to the establishment of the domestic Fengge Cinema Line.
In fact, it is precisely because of the establishment of the domestic Fengge Cinema Line that twenty years later, the stalk that we all owe Zhou Xingchi a movie ticket is gone.......
In this movie, it is not Zhou Xingchi who benefits the most, after all, Zhou Xingchi's fame has long since risen, and no matter how big it is, it can't be much bigger.
The one who really benefited the most was Chen Hong!
first took the role of Xiaoqing in "The Legend of the New White Lady", completely opened up her reputation in China and became the goddess of this era, although there were no too good movies and TV in the next two years, but relying on the aftermath of "The Legend of the New White Lady", Chen Hong still sat firmly in the position of the domestic TV series actress in those two years, and then participated in Wu Jianye's "The World of Chu Xing", although there are not many scenes, but it is amazing enough.
This also proves that Chen Hong can control ancient costumes and modern dramas at the same time, and then there is Zhou Xingchi's "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance".
As the absolute female number one in the movie, Chen Hong's performance is impeccable, this movie is not a profound movie, and the requirements for acting skills are not so high, plus the current audience is not like Wu Jianye, there is Gong Li's version compared with the previous work, so in the hearts of the current audience, Chen Hong is a unique autumn fragrance.
"The Legend of the New White Lady" and "The World of Chu Xing" helped Chen Hong open up the market in Xiangjiang, and "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" helped Chen Hong gain a firm foothold in Xiangjiang completely.
The cooperation between Zhou Xingchi and Chen Hong in two consecutive films is also called a golden partner by Xiangjiang Media, and Chen Hong was invited to star again in the new movie "Domestic Lingling Paint" that Zhou Xingchi is now preparing.
And the reason why Gong Li was in a complicated mood was that she knew that the original heroine of the movie "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" was set by herself, but in the negotiation between Fengge Pictures and herself, she couldn't accept the acting style of Zhou Xingchi's movie, so she lost this role.
At that time, in Gong Li's opinion, there was nothing to lose, but with the big sales of this movie, it was inevitable that she would taste it.
The most important thing is that over the years, many actresses brought out by Wu Jianye have been slowly approaching their status in the domestic film industry.
If it weren't for Zhang Yimou himself, it is estimated that he would have been driven off the altar by these actresses a long time ago.
Well, now, it seems that there is another Yu Feihong.
Even as a girl, Gong Li has to admit that Yu Feihong's ancient costume is too beautiful, and this kind of beauty is the kind of beauty that kills both men and women.
Although Chen Hong is very beautiful, her beauty is very aggressive, and she doesn't like it very much from the perspective of actresses, but Yu Feihong's beauty is different, and it is difficult for girls to rise hostile emotions.
"Director Wu's new movie, do you have eyebrows?" Gong Li suddenly asked Zhang Yimou.
Zhang Yimou was slightly stunned, but he didn't think much about it, and said directly: "It shouldn't be yet, and I haven't talked to him either, but according to Lao Wu's habit of making films, he shouldn't have decided on his new movie so early!"
Gong Li nodded, and didn't ask about this matter again, in her heart, she still hoped to be able to star in a movie by Wu Jianye, in that case, she would not only be famous in the field of art films.
Every actor has a scale in his heart, a judgment on his career.
In recent years, because of the emergence of Tangting culture and Fengge Cinema, the domestic film market has entered the era of commercialization in advance, at this time, Wu Jianye is creating actors with box office appeal, while domestic studios and film companies are looking for actors with box office appeal.
It's not that they also understand how the film market works in the commercial era, it's purely a kind of instinctive exploration of the movie box office.
It's the same as wanting to eat when you're hungry and drinking water when you're thirsty.
When Wu Jianye's movies were unbeatable in the domestic box office market, they also wanted to create a myth like Wu Jianye.
Therefore, at the beginning, domestic studios and film companies highly respected well-known directors, which also allowed many directors to get more opportunities.
But when these directors don't make films that they expect, or the number of directors is too small, there are even fewer directors who can really make films that cater to the market.
So their eyes once again looked at Xiangjiang, which had been ahead of them for 20 years, and after analysis, they found that stars in Xiangjiang are very important factors for the box office of the movie.
Therefore, the influence of actors and stars is also slowly rising, and it is clearly visible that their salaries have also risen.
It is an irreversible existence.
Wu Jianye is also aware of this situation, and Wu Jianye did not make corrections to the current behavior of the studio and film company, which is a process that must be followed in the development of the film industry.
When Wu Jianye was reborn, the evaluation of actors by those entertainment companies still accounted for most of the reasons for the success of the whole movie, and only a few knowledgeable companies could clearly know that for a movie, the most important thing is that the story should be good.
Otherwise, why would those IP+ traffic small fresh meat, Xiaohua's movies hit the street to grandma's house.
For Wu Jianye, this is a lesson in blood.......
There is no failure to succeed, and they will not cherish that success.
Gong Li's current reputation in China is definitely no problem, but the key problem is that most of the movies she starred in are well-received movies.
The previously released "Farewell My Concubine" is already her best movie at the domestic box office.
Last year, "Farewell My Concubine" was officially released in China, and with the glory of the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, the box office of this film in China was as high as more than 27 million, which can be regarded as a very successful movie, but the focus of this movie is on Cheng Dieyi played by Zhang Guoxuan, and not many people pay attention to Gong Li.
Now Gong Li has a sense of crisis, if she can't star in a box office blockbuster, her status in the rivers and lakes is likely to be taken away by other actresses.
Thinking of this, Gong Li suddenly had some expectations for the Xiangjiang movie she shot after the filming of the movie "Alive".
After the filming of "Alive", Gong Li took over a Xiangjiang movie, and the director Qian Yongqiang can only be regarded as a second-rate director in Xiangjiang, but the cast is still very worth looking forward to, in addition to Gong Li, there are Lin Qingxia, Zhang Min and other well-known actors in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
This movie is adapted from Master Jin's "Dragon Babu", and the name of the movie is "Tianlong Babu: Tianshan Tong Ma".
Speaking of Qian Yongqiang, the most impressive movie directed by the audience in later generations should be "Painted Skin" starring Chen Yan, Zhao Wei, and Zhou Xun.
After Yu Feihong's appearance scene was filmed, it was the scene where Yu Feihong and Principal Gu met for the first time.
The shooting of this scene can be regarded as one of the most important shots in the whole movie, so Wu Jianye attached great importance to it, and called Yu Feihong and Principal Gu to start talking to the two of them.
The two of them have already been familiar with the script, but they still have their own doubts.
"Director Wu, the gap between the identities of Ye Linger and Su Xian is a little too big, is this kind of design of love at first sight a little inconsistent with the personalities of the two?" Yu Feihong raised his own question.
Su Xian is the name of the actor in the movie "Eternal Night".
Wu Jianye explained with a smile: "There are many kinds of love, love at first sight, RI long-term love, the important thing is how people believe in such love, but fortunately, the two of you are both handsome men and beautiful women, and the persuasion is much stronger." ”
This is also one of the reasons why the male and female protagonists in the movie are handsome men and beautiful women, such a combination will make the audience subconsciously believe in the love between the two of them.
As for RI's long-term love, most of them come from movies with unequal appearances between men and women.
For example, Huang Bo and Lin Zhiling's "101 Marriage Proposals", if the director arranges for the two to fall in love at first sight, it is estimated that all the audience will directly abandon the drama, and it can only be RI long-term love.
In the performance of movies and TV series, there are also some love scenes of happy enemies, which is another way of expression.
Hearing Wu Jianye praise himself as a handsome man and a beautiful woman, Principal Gu and Yu Feihong were both a little embarrassed.
Zhao Fei smiled on the side: "Don't be embarrassed, if I have the looks of the two of you, then what kind of photography do I do, I will also go to make a movie!"
After following Wu Jianye for a long time, Zhao Fei also learned a lot of new vocabulary.
Zhang Yimou also smiled: "Yes, the appearance of the actor is God's reward, but the rest of the acting skills have to be studied by yourself!"
The three bigwigs of "Eternal Night" spoke, and Yu Feihong and Principal Gu naturally didn't say anything.
The scene between the two has officially started filming!
