Early 2016!

Yanjing, Xishan Villa!

Wu Jianye sat in the living room, with a cup of tea on the coffee table in front of him, steaming hot, and sitting opposite him were Han Heping, Huang Jianxin and Yu Dong!

"You two are chasing ducks to the shelves, I haven't directed a movie for many years!" Wu Jianye looked at the three of them helplessly.

"Mr. Wu, you really have to come forward in this movie, others don't have this appeal!" Han Heping persuaded.

"Come on, there are not a few directors with this appeal in China now, and you China Film takes the lead, isn't the gift film you made a few years ago very good!"

After Wu Jianye took a sip of tea, he continued: "Besides, you have all retreated, why were you invited out again?"

Han Heping has retired in 2014, and the retired Han Heping is very low-key, almost never appearing in the news, but I didn't expect to go out of the mountain again this time, but to invite myself to go out of the mountain!

Huang Jianxin also persuaded on the side: "Director Wu, you haven't made a film for so many years, isn't it itchy at all, and this year is still your sixty years old, in this meaningful year, isn't it more meaningful to shoot a tribute film for the country?"

Han Heping, Huang Jianxin, and Yu Dong came to Xishan Villa, in fact, in the hope that Wu Jianye would be in charge of this year's gift film.

Yu Dong also said: "That's right, Director Wu, all these years, we have been waiting to see your movie again!"

Wu Jianye said helplessly: "I haven't directed a movie for so many years, aren't you afraid that I will mess you up?"

As soon as the three of them heard Wu Jianye say this, they knew that Wu Jianye was already a little moved, and a smile immediately appeared on their faces.

"How can you be worried, not only us in the past few years, but even the majority of fans also hope to see Director Wu's movie!" Huang Jianxin said with a smile.

Since the 10-year incident of the Directors Association, Wu Jianye's reputation has made many young people know, and CCTV's movie channel has launched a special feature on Wu Jianye's movie, and many fans have shouted on the Internet, hoping that Wu Jianye can come back to filming.

In the past few years, there have often been some news about Wu Jianye's comeback to filming, but in the end it turned out to be all fake.

Wu Jianye thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you let me think about this matter!"

I haven't directed a movie in these years, let them say, Wu Jianye is really a little itchy!

Han Heping hurriedly said: "Then Mr. Wu, you must hurry up, our film is ready to be released on November 11 this year!"

Wu Jianye nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll give you an accurate answer tomorrow!"

"Haha, then we'll wait for your good news!" Han Heping laughed.

Yu Dong also said happily on the side: "This time I can finally cooperate with Director Wu!"

This year's tribute film is led by China Film, Tangting Culture, and Bona Film.

Although Tangting Culture has cooperated with Bona Film many times before, and even Wu Jianye is the largest shareholder of Bona Film, Wu Jianye himself has never cooperated with Bona Film in film!

In the end, the three of them left the West Hill Villa with satisfied smiles.

After the three of them left, Zhu Xuan came to Wu Jianye's side and asked, "Are you really planning to make a comeback?"

Wu Jianye smiled: "It's not a comeback, it's just an itchy hand." ”

Zhu Yan nodded, didn't think much about it, and said: "Since you are going to film here, then I will go to the Caribbean, Yiyi's child has just been born, and the air over there is more suitable for the growth of children!"

Wu Nianyi and Liu Yifei had secretly married the year before last, mainly because they couldn't get married.......

After the two got married, Liu Yifei did not retire, but her state was a bit like when Wu Jianye and Zhu Xuan first got married, Zhu Yifei's state was only accepted for the movies he was interested in.

After several years of training, Wu Nianyi can now be regarded as successfully taking over Wu Jianye's industry, and at the same time he is also studying his own business.

And the focus of Zhu Yan's life is also on bringing his grandson.

Compared with Wu Nianyi's stability, Wu Qichen and Wu Luoxin made Wu Jianye scratch his head a little, both of them are still single, as for the youngest one who is not yet an adult, there is no need to worry too early.

"Okay, I'll go over and join you when I'm done with this movie!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.

Now the others also stay in the Caribbean all the year round, but they rarely return to China, if it weren't for Han Heping calling Wu Jianye this time, Wu Jianye would not necessarily come back.

When it was more than four o'clock in the morning, Wu Jianye had already gotten up, made himself a cup of strong tea, and then came to the garden and started boxing!

It is these decades of exercise that have made Wu Jianye's body very healthy, so Wu Jianye at this time looks much younger than his peers, and his body is much tougher.

After a set of punches, Wu Jianye saw that Dai Zhen also came to the garden in sportswear.

"Didn't you say it, I didn't need it so early. Wu Jianye said while wiping the sweat on his face with a towel.

Dai Zhen smiled and said, "Isn't it like I'm nothing, besides, I'm old and can't sleep!"

"How about it, you are also in your fifties, have you ever thought about retirement?" Wu Jianye asked with a smile.

Dai Zhen said: "No, it's good now, you don't know that I am a workaholic, I flew to Europe two days ago, if I retire, it will be too boring at home!"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Whatever you want!"

After eating breakfast, Wu Jianye made a phone call to Han Heping and told the other party that he had agreed!

After listening to this, Han Heping was naturally very happy.

So this morning, China Film, Tangting Culture, and Bona Film jointly announced that they had invited Wu Jianye to serve as the chief director of this year's gift film!

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused an uproar, and no one thought that after the New Year in 2016, the first big news in the entertainment industry turned out to be Wu Jianye's going out to make a movie!

Although it is said that this circle is forgetful, 10 years ago, Wu Jianye's Weibo caused a huge sensation in the domestic entertainment industry.

Even though it has been five years since such a sensation, it is still very memorable, just like Han Heping said, young people now want to see whether Wu Jianye, a director who has been mythologized in China, can keep up with the trend of this era!

The so-called myth is only a myth when it is high up and out of reach!

But when this myth chooses to go to the world, then in fact it is no longer a myth, and people will look at all this with a scrutinizing eye.

And that's what Wu Jianye is doing now!

Subsequently, Wu Jianye thought for a while, and five years later, he posted a second message on his Weibo.

The new movie "My Motherland and Me" has officially begun preparations, which will be a series of seven small stories, connecting the vicissitudes of China for decades, I hope you can like it!

It is still a simple Weibo, and it is still in the shortest possible time, which has been forwarded by countless insiders, causing a huge sensation, and this Weibo has also instantly reached the first place on the hot search list!

It is precisely in this way that Wu Jianye's mobile phone and WeChat have not stopped, and all the former friends have called to ask about Wu Jianye's specific situation!

Wu Jianye gave a unified answer in his circle of friends.

The movie has just begun to prepare, and the script has just begun to be written, as for the later situation, I will inform you one by one!

After the reply from the circle of friends was completed, Wu Jianye began to write the script.

However, I thought I would be able to write the script with peace of mind, but I didn't expect someone to run to the West Hill Villa.

"Old Wu, you finally plan to make a movie again!" Zhao Fei came to Wu Jianye's study with an excited face, "I don't care, this time I must be the cinematographer of this movie!"

Since Wu Jianye's retirement, Zhao Fei has never cooperated with Wu Jianye again, although Zhao Fei has been firmly in the position of the first photographer in China over the years, and there are countless apprentices and grandchildren who have gone out from under him, but for Zhao Fei, his favorite is to make movies with Wu Jianye!

Wu Jianye leaned on the sofa and said with a smile: "I didn't say I didn't need you, but can you keep up with your physical strength?"

Zhao Fei is also in his fifties this year, and filmmaking, especially photography, is a physical job, to be honest, Wu Jianye is a little worried.

Zhao Fei smiled and said, "Don't worry, no problem, besides, now we are also apprentices!"

Wu Jianye smiled: "It's okay if you have no problem here." ”

Zhao Fei looked very happy and said, "I know that you must not have said it, how about it, have you figured out who else is behind the scenes?"

Wu Jianye said: "It's almost, our old brothers in the past have now become well-known directors in China, although they all say that time is no problem, but they can't delay them for too long, it just so happens that this movie, seven stories, then it's good to find seven assistant directors!"

"And take this opportunity to get together too!"

Zhao Fei immediately nodded and said: "Yes, now it is estimated that only you have the ability to let them get together, and I estimate that Zhongying also has such considerations!"

For the movie "My Motherland and Me", Wu Jianye did not plan to let each director be responsible for a story, he himself served as the chief director, Wu Jianye would personally direct these seven stories, and the seven directors he found would be the assistant directors of each story to help him complete this movie!

When Wu Jianye announced that he was in charge of this year's gift film, the movie "My Motherland and Me" became the biggest entertainment news of the year.

In the eyes of some young people, there is one thing that makes them very happy, that is, Wu Jianye was able to communicate with them about the movie like a young man through the Internet!

For example, the next day, Wu Jianye updated his Weibo again.

"My Motherland and Me" consists of seven stories, namely "The Eve", "Encounter", "Winning the Championship", "Return", "Hello Yanjing", "Daytime Meteor", and "Escort"!

At the same time, it is planned to invite seven domestic directors to serve as the assistant directors of this film to help me complete this movie!

As soon as the news came out, it immediately aroused fanatical conjecture among netizens, who wanted to know who Wu Jianye could invite to be the assistant director of this movie!

"I guess, it must be the top director in the country, that is, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Feng Pants, I am not curious at all when they appear!"

"Upstairs dreaming again, right? These people are the top directors in the country, according to their status, how can they still serve as other people's assistant directors?"

"Compared with them, I think that the younger generation of potential directors is more likely, I have studied Director Wu's films before, and in his time, the assistant directors used in his films are all potential new directors!"

"...... on the top floor"

Not only are these ordinary melon-eating people very curious, but in fact, even insiders are also very curious, and the actors of the crew often ask their directors.

"Dao'er, have you received Director Wu's invitation?"

However, for these people's questions, Wu Jianye did not let them doubt for too long, after all, this film is going to be released on eleven, so Wu Jianye also needs to race against time.

So soon, Wu Jianye announced the first assistant director candidate on his Weibo!

Assistant director of the first unit of "My Motherland and Me" "The Eve": Jiang Qian!

"Sunny Day", "Here Comes the GUI", "The Sun Also Rises", "Let the Bullets Fly", "One Step Away"!

As of now, although Jiang Qian has only directed five movies, in the hearts of fans, Jiang Qian is definitely the top genius director in China, and no one thought that the first assistant director announced by Wu Jianye would be Jiang Qian, which made them excited and full of expectations for the follow-up director!

Almost in this day's time, Wu Jianye announced all seven candidates for assistant directors.

The assistant director in charge of the second unit of "My Motherland and Me" "Encounter" is Zhang Yimou, who is known as a national teacher!

The assistant director of the third unit "Winning the Championship" is Xu Zheng, who has become the top director at the domestic box office with the trilogy of "Embarrassment Series", and Xu Zheng has been the guarantee of the box office among domestic cutting-edge directors in recent years.

The assistant director of the fourth unit "Return" is Zhou Xingchi, who is getting faster and faster compared to Jiang Qian, whenever his new film appears, it will be a carnival for fans!

The assistant director of the fifth unit "Hello Yanjing" is Feng Pants, and no one is more suitable for this theme than him!

The assistant director of the sixth unit "Daytime Meteor" is Chen Kaige, although the voices about Chen Kaige starting to decline after "Farewell My Concubine" have been continuous, but it is undeniable that among the top directors in China today, there is always a place for Chen Kaige, and more importantly, after 2010, Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou returned to the court culture, and some top art films were made!

The assistant director of the seventh unit "Escort" is Ning Hao, a director who went out in the court culture, and became a dark horse at the domestic box office with a "Crazy Stone", and his movies are a guarantee of quality in the hearts of fans!

"Immortal lineup!"

This is the title given by Wu Jianye after announcing the candidate for assistant director, and major media and portals!

Even if the starring lineup has not yet been announced at this time, it is enough to attract everyone's attention.

However, at this time, the doors of China Film, Tangting Culture, and Bona Film were also blocked by major brokerage companies, and with the lineup of Wu Jianye and these seven directors, they wanted to recommend their artists to the crew!
