Chapter 118: The True Great God

Sideways.

An upscale suite in a five-star hotel.

But the old house is only worth because of the architectural style, and in this location, just the lot is worth much. Not to mention the whole house.

At this moment, there are so many beautiful rooms in the house, the hall and the relaxation room are empty, but in a very dim basement.

The lights are dim and there is a computer in front.

A gray-haired figure sits there, frowning at the camera on a computer monitor. Frame-by-frame playback.

Seems to be clipping.

Stephen Chow.

Ancestral home Ningbo, went to Xianggang very young, experienced ups and downs in the early days, single-parent family.

Later, after several years of experience, he made TV series and movies.

There is no need to go into too much detail, a sentence of Xing Ye is enough for people to instantly understand his life. Movie saga.

It is not an exaggeration to influence a generation.

A master of comedy films, he pioneered the genre of nonsensical comedy.

After filming his last starring movie many years ago, he moved to the mainland and began to work as a director. is not a high production, but every time a movie is produced, it will get the attention of the majority of sentimental parties and fans. The box office is not low.

So much so that now the focus is simply on the mainland.

At this moment, he is editing his new work "Journey to the West", which has sharpened his sword for five years. In addition to filming, editing is also one of the most iconic aspects of the director's role. Editing is another re-creation by the director in addition to the filming process.

Even if there is a director looking for an editor, he himself must be involved.

He used to need to find, in the early days of directing. Now that I've been a director for more than ten years, I don't need it anymore.

In fact, it hasn't been filmed yet, but it's impossible to really finish filming and then edit and watch again. In that case, it will be too late to find out if there is a problem. So he's taking the time to edit and see halfway through the shooting.

Nothing else is a problem, including the mainland male number one I was looking for, and his acting skills are very good. The popularity of the coffee is not low. The supporting roles are all well-known and popular actors. It can be said that in terms of comedy, story, special effects, etc., it is a work that he has the most perfect combination of Xianggang films, personal nonsensical style and appreciation of the mainland market.

But at the moment, while he is still striving for excellence, he is also worried about one thing.

It may seem trivial to others, but for his somewhat paranoid personality, it has to be done.

That's the interlude, or the soundtrack.

His works are all classics among fans, but the classics among the classics should be Journey to the West.

And not only the storyline is funny, but the interludes are even more.

"Broken Liver and Sausage" (I made it ^_^ up)

How many people burst into tears when they watched Journey to the West with the plot. So far, this song is an indispensable element of Journey to the West.

Originally, this Journey to the West Demon Legend will also use this soundtrack to lead out this story, as a feeling. But Stephen Chow, who has always liked to challenge himself, faintly feels that there should be innovation. Privately found a lot of musicians and asked them to help create them, but he didn't like the songs he received.

I think it's particularly inappropriate. Either that's not in line with the era it was released in '94.

Either it's just not attractive enough and not fit the movie enough.

The people around him persuaded him, saying that you are embarrassed. I want the style of '94, and I want to be very good, and the key is to be able to fit the new movie perfectly. In the end, it must replace the status of the original "Liver and Sausage Break", which is tantamount to reversing the episode or BGM that has been in the hearts of fans for 20 years.

It's just BGM that seems to be an unrelated thing.。

You have to know what this is like? It's like if you eat six steamed buns and you don't eat enough, and you eat the seventh full, you wonder if you will eat the seventh directly in the future.

The reason why "Liver and Sausage Break" is a classic and unforgettable for fans cannot be how good the song itself is. It's the excitement of the whole movie.

Now you need people to create a work that can be compared to this song out of thin air and without relying on it, which is unfair in itself.

Stephen Zou is paranoid, but he is not unreasonable. So just think about it.

Only in the dead of night when I work quietly, but I am like a fish in my throat, because I can't get it, I care more.

"Pounce on you gai ......"

Stephen Zou simply pushed the keyboard, got up and moved, and simply went upstairs.

Decades of being alone and not many friends. Even because of his personality and work style, he is often misunderstood, misunderstood, and even troubled.

Nor did he defend himself.

He has brought joy to countless fans with comedy in the movie, but he is not an extrovert in private, and he is even a little serious.

Poured a glass of water and took a sip, the big empty house. Sit there in a daze.

What are the characteristics of paranoia? Even if you try to convince yourself to give up what you can't get, the more you do it, the clearer it becomes in your mind. There's always an urge to remind you to finish and get.

After thinking for a moment, the phone rang just right.

Once connected, talk to the other person in Mandarin that you are not very proficient in.

Wang Zhenglei is the vice president of Good Brothers Group. The younger brother of President and Chairman Wang Zhengjun. At the same time, he is also the producer of this play, and the Good Brothers Group also serves as the distributor of this play.

It is equivalent to the cooperation between the two in filming. Significant investors.

Going north, the Good Brothers Group is a famous Beijing circle. And Stephen Chow is a big name in the Hong Kong circle.

Working together is sure to develop a network.

"Director Zou, how is the editing of the movie?"

Wang Zhenglei is only in his early forties, and his age and qualifications are far worse than Zou Xingchi. It's also kind of to speak. After all, he is also the boss.

Zou Xingchi sighed: "It's all good." It's just a little bit ...... I still don't think I like the episode of Journey to the West. ”

Wang Zhenglei was helpless: "Didn't we already say this a long time ago? Don't be so obsessed with it." Commercial movies are funny, you have to be so serious about a song. ”

Stephen Zou spoke: "I still want to try." I don't want to give up unless it's already released. ”

Although Wang Zhenglei thinks that it really doesn't matter, since Zou Xingchi said so, give face.

"It doesn't matter. ”

Wang Zhenglei smiled: "Is there anything I can do? Anyway, in the entertainment industry, I have searched all the songwriters and musicians I can find." ”

After thinking for a while, Wang Zhenglei spoke: "No...... Are you going to Hong Kong, Taiwan or abroad?"

Zou Xingchi smiled: "Abroad? Can foreign countries create Chinese songs? Hong Kong and Taiwan I first looked for, even if Zou Jielun's creation is good, but it still can't satisfy me." ”

Wang Zhenglei sighed: "Then what do you want me to do?"

Zou Xingchi was puzzled: "The country is so big and has such a population. Is there really no other suitable good musician?"

Wang Zhenglei spoke: "I have found everything I can find, and you still blame me for not being deciful...... Wait. ”

Zou Xingchi didn't have hope, but at this moment, he suddenly heard him have a turn and asked: "What's wrong?"

"Well...... Up in the air. But ......"

Stephen Zou asked: "Do you have any recommendations?

Wang Zhenglei thought for a while: "There should be ability." I can't guarantee it, though, it's a bit young. I just want to meet him tomorrow and talk about something else. If...... Either you go with me. Try it. ”

Zou Xingchi spoke: "Okay." Then I'...... Where?"

Wang Zhenglei spoke: "In Mingjing." You have to come quickly, or you can go alone. ”

Stephen Zou thought for a while: "I'll do it as soon as possible." Here's what to arrange. ”

After a few more words, he hung up.

Stephen Zou directly asked the assistant to pack up his things and book a plane ticket, and he went to talk to the assistant director.

He is such a person, for the sake of important things, it doesn't matter if the others can be put aside.
