Chapter 311: Wu Yushen VS Hou Xiaoxian
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
She has seen [Crazy Stone] and knows the potential of this movie, once she goes to the Golden Horse Awards, there are too many uncontrollable factors. Therefore, at this time, Wu Yushen actually just said that he wanted to invite Ye Ming to participate in the Golden Horse Awards, but he didn't want to participate in any competition unit.
Originally, Wu Yushen thought that at such a time, Ye Ming was a young man, who became famous at a young age and did not have much experience, so as long as he flickered a little, it should be no problem, but he never thought that Ye Ming was so cunning that he actually heard the trap.
At this time, in the café, Feng Xiaogang originally wanted to say something, but he glanced at the door, his face changed, and he stood up very respectfully: "Director Zhang, I didn't expect you to come back here, I thought the three of you would go and sit together?"
Gathering in private, this is also a way to exchange feelings. In fact, feelings come from the city, even if they are friends, if they don't contact once in three years, there may not be much affection for friends. And frequent gatherings naturally mean that they will cultivate affection.
Especially for a big director like Zhang Yimou, he doesn't have many friends, and even his enemies are not many, and when it comes to the realm of a big director like Zhang Yimou, his only enemy is himself.
Therefore, it is rare to say that there is a level of director who has come over, and Feng Xiaogang thinks that Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige must have said that they will invite Wu Yushen to the East Banquet. But he definitely didn't expect Zhang Yimou to come here, and it was a breezy expression. Looking at Ye Ming's expression, Feng Xiaogang thought that he could see some clues from Ye Ming's face. But from Zhang Yimou's face that is not wavering, the face that is as resolute as a rock, but I can't see the slightest change in love, it will always be a face of bitterness and hatred, but it is a story of countless vicissitudes.
What Zhang Yimou is best at is to add other people's stories to his own lens, and add the perception of life, which is used to move countless audiences. Conquer their hearts and souls. Even if it is a hope project movie like "No One is Missing", all non-professional actors are used, but Zhang Yimou can shoot flowers, this is the ability of international directors. No wonder Feng Xiaogang was so polite. Zhang Yimou waved his hand and said, "The Tao is different, not conspiring with each other, I also came out to breathe, and I happened to see Ye Ming, this kid, enter the café." I didn't expect you two to be here.
Sit down, sit down. At this time, Feng Xiao was very polite just now, and sat down after Zhang Yimou sat down.
At this time, Zhang Yimou glanced at Ye Ming and said, "Ye Ming, I heard that you are filming the second part of Huanzhu Gege, but don't delay the filming of my movie, if you don't arrange the schedule." Then I won't let you go. This is already a rare joke for Zhang Yimou, although this cold joke is not funny at all, but it can also be seen that Zhang Yimou values Ye Ming.
Ye Ming said with a smile: "Director Zhang, look at what you said, how dare I delay your movie." I've already made an agreement with the Huanzhu Gege crew, when will you start there. At such a big time, I can pass it immediately, and if a month is not enough, it can be extended by a month, you see if this schedule is enough. ”
Zhang Yimou nodded with satisfaction and said: "Even if you are smart, in fact, a month is almost, the role of the actor is not very much, and one month is enough." The key is to see when it snows in that place, I guess it's going to be the time of the New Year's Pass, and it's too early to shoot any artistic conception. I'll let you know when the time comes. ”
After talking about the schedule, at this time, Ye Ming asked curiously: "Director Zhang, this Wu Yushen." Come here, I'm afraid it's for support, the filmmakers of Baodao have always been rarely so enthusiastic, I think he should be courteous to others, I don't know what he means by looking for you. ”
Zhang Yimou smiled and said, "You kid, the news is too well-informed." That's right, Wu Yushen came with a purpose, but I don't care what kind of purpose he is, this reform of the Golden Horse Awards is a big step forward for the Chinese film industry, if it weren't for the fact that [no one is missing] is not suitable for participating in the Golden Horse Awards, I also want to support it, but not to support Wu Yushen, but to support the reform of the Golden Horse Awards. In fact, Lao Wu is too utilitarian, some things are in a hurry, the reform of the Golden Horse Awards, I heard about it as early as two years ago, but it is only now that it can be regarded as a real one, and now, there is still no unified opinion within them, I really don't know, what kind of lively scene will this year's Golden Horse Awards be. ”
After all, Zhang Yimou is still well-informed, so in such a situation, he actually knows more inside information.
At this time, Ye Ming suddenly realized and said: "No wonder this is the case, I said that a director of his level will not attach importance to me, a fledgling director, it turns out that this is the same thing." It seems that there are rumors in the outside world that the Golden Horse Awards are incompatible internally, and it is true, this Wu Yushen should be the representative of the film company. When he came here, he should have said that he represented the interests of the film company. ”
Hearing this, not only did Feng Xiaogang and Sister Fang Fang feel surprised, but even if it was Zhang Yimou, he actually looked at Ye Ming curiously when he was like this, as if he wanted to get to know Ye Ming again: "I didn't expect it, your news is so well-informed, that's right, Lao Wu is the representative of the film company, to be precise, it is the representative of the film company with a foreign background on the one hand." Lao Wu is the first Chinese director to leave his name on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, representing the interests of Western capital, which is very normal. However, at this time, the local forces represented by Hou Xiaoxian were not very satisfied with Lao Wu, so at this time, the internal harmony of the Golden Horse Awards was not very good. Therefore, Lao Wu said that he thought of asking for help. And that is to say, at such a time, I think Hou Xiaoxian will definitely make a move. ”
After all, Zhang Yimou stood a little higher, so he looked a little farther. It profoundly analyzes the internal contradictions of the Golden Horse Award Organizing Committee. At this time, Zhang Yimou, who has always been honest, also said with emotion: "The Golden Horse Award has always been more fair. Compared with the double yolk eggs that are moving at every turn in China, it can be said that the authority of the Golden Horse Awards is still relatively recognized, but I didn't expect them to be internally incompatible. This kind of film award, once it is said that there is a shady scene, it is a very severe blow to the film award itself. ”
Ye Ming immediately said: "Director Zhang, this is the rhythm of offending people, if this is heard by others, it will be a mess again, but this is the truth." Any reform has to pay a price, and the reform of the Golden Horse Award will inevitably touch the interests of some people, but, Hou Xiaoxian, I don't think it's Wu Yushen's opponent. Because he does not have Wu Yushen's courage and ruthlessness, and Wu Yushen represents the interests of the film company, therefore, in such a situation. Wu Yushen must win, he can't. He must not lose to Hou Xiaoxian. The struggle of capitalists has always been bloody, and behind the movie is actually the struggle of capital. It is precisely because of the movie, to put it bluntly, that it is also a capital operation, which means that Wu Yushen will definitely win this battle for power and profit.
Zhang Yimou is actually very literary and artistic, he is a literary and artistic young man in his bones, but he just said that many years of life in the film and television industry have made Zhang Yimou's edges and corners smoother, and the once hot-blooded young man has also begun to have crow's feet on his forehead, which is a proof of the vicissitudes of the years, especially the faint appearance of white, which also begins to indicate that Zhang Yimou has begun to mature both in terms of art and age.
However, in fact, sometimes, it is still difficult to hide the impulse of his hot-blooded youth, after all, he is still a literary youth in his bones. Of course, he also hopes that the filmmakers represented by Hou Xiaoxian can get the final victory. This represents the triumph of literary films.
At that moment, Zhang Yimou said: "This, in fact, is not necessarily, Hou Xiaoxian is not an ordinary person, a local representative, local combat, he has a greater advantage, he has his own insistence, and his influence in the Golden Horse Awards may not be what Lao Wu can imagine." At this time, Zhang Yimou also tried his best to support Hou Xiaoxian.
But Ye Ming shook his head and said with great certainty: "Impossible, Wu Yushen will not let him win, this reform of the Golden Horse Awards, Wu Yushen has already decided to do it according to his own ideas."
In fact, I was not so sure at first, but from the moment he began to invite me to participate, not to participate in the competition, I knew that this year's Golden Horse Awards must mean that Hu has become the most lively Golden Horse Awards in recent years. And the filmmakers in Baodao will not allow Hou Xiaoxian to win, because it is not in the interests of the filmmakers. Moreover, I heard that Wu Yushen still has his own killer weapon that has not been used. ”
Wu Yushen still has a killer weapon that has not been used, such a news, but it is said that people feel surprised, Zhang Yimou himself thinks that the news is relatively well-informed, but Wu Yushen still has his own killer weapon, which he has never heard.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Yimou said: "Lao Wu's killer weapon, don't you say it's Chen Kaige's [Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin], although Chen Kaige's movie failed at the box office, but, according to Chen Kaige's own insistence, he may not be willing to go to the Golden Horse Awards, especially if I didn't go, according to my understanding of his arrogant character, he may not be willing to go." ”
Zhang Yimou thinks that he still knows Chen Kaige very well, this guy is the blood of the nobility in his bones, he thinks he is famous, superior, and quite conceited. At this time, Zhang Yimou suddenly received a phone call, and only after a knowing smile did he say: "Over the stall, I know that Hou Xiaoxian is impossible to endure it, I said that he will fight back, he must fight back."
Ye Ming, you follow me to meet Director Hou Xiaoxian. This time, Zhang Yimou didn't say anything to let Feng Xiaogang go with him, that is, he didn't take him to play, in fact, if [Party A and Party B] went to participate in the Golden Horse Awards, then Feng Xiaogang also had some scruples. At that moment, Feng Xiaogang was also very knowledgeable and said: "My crew hasn't finished busy yet, let's go first, Director Zhang, Ye Ming, see you later." ”
Sister Fang Fang naturally said that she wanted to follow her, but Zhang Yimou didn't mention taking Sister Fang Fang with him, he didn't dare to go over. After all, it is said that in such a situation, Zhang Yimou's majesty. It's unbearable for ordinary people, even if it's a look, it's with the strong gaze of the superior. Naturally, Sister Fang Fang also knew what she should do.
After getting into the car, Zhang Yimou said very happily: "Ye Ming, your agent is interesting, my eyes are not something that anyone can accept calmly." But she, an agent, can look at me calmly, which is not something that ordinary agents can do. Ye Ming thought for a while and said, "Sister Fang Fang is an agent from Hong Kong City, so I think everyone's concept is different, right?"
Zhang Yimou glanced at the distance and said: "Port City, that place, the enthronement system in the film and television industry is more strict, not as simple as you think." A small agent will not have that kind of momentum. Although she admitted defeat and retreated, I could feel that her gaze was a kind of resolute and never-admitting defeat. ”
This kind of thing. It is already said that Zhang Yimou has not seen it for a long time, he just said that he has seen this kind of gaze from Gong Li's eyes, and there is another person who is Zhang Ziyi, the eyes of these two people are the reason why Zhang Yimou chose the two of them as the protagonists of his movie.
At this time. Zhang Yimou thought for a while and said, "If it weren't for [my father and mother] having already decided that it would be Zhang Ziyi, I think." Your agent is a good choice for the heroine."
This is a very high praise from Zhang Yimou, which shows that he is very optimistic about Sister Fang.
The car arrived at the Media Hotel, close to the Celestial Terrace, in such a place, although it is not the most luxurious hotel, but it is also a famous hotel in the circle. Hou Xiaoxian, who seems to be a very kind person, as if he will never see this person angry, sitting there is as simple and unpretentious as an uncle watching the door, and he is squatting at the door of the film studio like Zhang Yimou, and he looks like a group performance without makeup.
However, this person is an international director, and the tragedy trilogy has established his international status, and he is one of the few internationally renowned directors on Treasure Island. The film "City of Sadness" is one of the trilogy of sadness and won the Golden Lion Award at the 46th Venice Film Festival. Hou Xiaoxian and Zhang Yimou have a good relationship, both of them are good at making movies that can only be strange with a hint of suffering and a sad atmosphere.
I saw Zhang Yimou coming. At this time, Hou Xiaoxian actually stood up and greeted him, all the way to the door.
Zhang Yimou also said very politely: "You are too polite, you didn't call me until three days, don't treat me as a friend, really." ”
Hou Xiaoxian frowned and said, "I'm busy, I also just had free time, so I'll contact you immediately, let me think about it, Wu Yushen, that guy must be looking for you, right?"
This is simply certain, Hou Xiaoxian is still very clear about Wu Yushen's purpose for coming here, in fact, he also came here for the same purpose, just said that he was entangled in some things and just came out of his free time.
At this time, Zhang Yimou said with a smile: "Don't say anything else, let me introduce you first, Ye Ming, the singer of [Legend], the director of [Crazy Stone], is quite a young man with potential." ”
After the introduction, Ye Ming also greeted him very politely, Hou Xiaoxian did not put on the shelf of his predecessors, but said with a smile: "Sit down, sit down." Zhang Yimou sat down directly and said, "Lao Hou, Chen Kaige has already promised you Lao Wu to go to the party." It's not a good form on your side. Hou Xiaoxian laughed and said: "I originally wanted to find Chen Kaige together, but it seems that there is no need for it." According to Chen Kaige's character, he shouldn't have agreed so quickly. I thought he was a conceited man. ”
However, Ye Ming's words were like a knife stabbed: "Conceited, in fact, in such a situation, even if you say conceited, it depends on the time, just a lot of it, Wu Yushen represents the interests of the Baodao film businessmen."
Director Zhang, if you say that according to your understanding of Chen Kaige, Wu Yushen is at the cost of [Jing Ke's Assassination of King Qin] exercising power on Treasure Island, does that mean that you can invite Chen Kaige over? ”
Speaking of which, Zhang Yimou was silent, yes, if Wu Yushen really said that such conditions were used as bait? Zhang Yimou replied with great difficulty: "Maybe, after all, the box office of the movie [Jing Ke's Assassination of King Qin] is too difficult to see, and Chen Kaige's face is somewhat unbearable, therefore, in such a situation, if Wu Yushen says that he offers good conditions, he will really agree." However, Chen Kaige's film itself is indeed a hard injury, and it is somewhat unconvincing to say that he is a killer feature. ”
Zhang Yimou actually considers this issue from an artistic point of view, if he is a judge of the Golden Horse Awards, he will definitely not give [Jing Ke Assassin King Qin] a chance for a bad film.
Therefore, at this time, Zhang Yimou didn't believe that Chen Kaige was Wu Yushen's killer weapon, if it was changed to [Farewell My Concubine] a few years ago, it would be about the same.
