"You left the book because of this character?"

"Well," Yang Ruyi didn't know who he was talking to, and replied to Ji Ming: "Yes, the role is special, I don't know if you will be interested." ”

Yang Ruyi, or the team's selection of scripts, is actually relatively loose - but even so, more than ninety percent of the scripts can be excluded. After Ji Ming became famous, he got too many books, and there should be more than those top performers, the reason may be that Ji Ming's selection conditions are relatively unlimited-similar to "The Far Side of Ah Lang", the predecessor of "Immortals", such a book is difficult to be sent to those top streamers, let alone be manipulated as a micro film in the main competition of the Cannes Film Festival.

It's fantastic.

In fact, in the domestic low-cost literary film market, "Encountering Immortals" has become a typical - newcomers write a book with tender hands, which is favored by top stars, and then summon good people in the circle, from screenwriters to directors, all complete, reconstruct the script, and upgrade it to a very high level, a rare high-end book, and then operate it into a field project with great value, how beautiful.

Even if Ah Hong, the earliest original screenwriter, can only have a position in the screenwriter group, this does not affect her to surpass the position of a script coder and become a real screenwriter.

It's another success story in the entertainment industry – just a little smaller, not as bright.

But most of the books sent over,It's still "unsightly",It may be the urging of overseas awards,A lot of books inexplicably make you speechless,When Xitian's editor chatted with the original,The other party himself can't say it clearly,But there is a core expression,You look at so-and-so's play,Isn't it also incomprehensible?This is postmodern.,What is this?,You let Ji Ming shoot it.,It's not a good idea.,It's not a problem to be an actor.,The three major in Europe are not a problem.,Oscar foreign language films are not impossible.。

.

Often, this side will hehe twice, saying that he will respond later - "I'm sorry, after careful evaluation...... Thank you for your contributions, and I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate next time. ”

For many incomprehensible but widely acclaimed movies, it can't be said absolutely, but behind the vast majority of this kind of films, there is a whole set of directors and creators, or aesthetics, or sociology, or philosophical concepts, there must be a self-consistent logic that triggers thinking to play a role in the movie, it may be a traditional chain, it may also be avant-garde blockchain-like, it may be continuous, it may also be discrete - but it must have.

And Ji Ming's current book, "Let's Dance! Elephant", lacks this thing.

Ji Ming can see that it has some attempts, such as thinking about social identity and self-identity involving gender, but the narrative realization and concept expression of the whole book are not commensurate, on the one hand, it sets up a lot of interesting characters, which is why Yang Ruyi left this script for him to see, to Ji Ming's role, a dance coach, middle-aged, feminine, gay, since childhood, I want to dance ballet and bear the huge pressure of family society. After being moved by the heroine, she decided to devote herself to rekindling the meaning of life for them.

Li Chunxia, this is the heroine, a person who slept for fifteen years because of a car accident, when she woke up, her mind was left fifteen years ago, and she wanted to end her life, but she was triggered by a dance flyer The power of dreams, so it was like a gangster who issued a assembly order, calling back three childhood friends who were floating and sinking in life and had different circumstances to participate in dance competitions and find back the power of life and the true meaning of life.

From these synopsis alone, there will still be some interest.

But when I read the whole script, it is a story where the heart is higher than the sky and the life is thinner than paper - not only can't support this interest, but even makes people disgusted, the inferior narrative makes people feel cheated, and all the settings and concept displays seem to have become a fig leaf for an unbearable fake inspirational story.

"Sister Yang, do you remember why I first said "The Far Side of Ah Lang" is good?"

Yang Ruyi thought for a while: "Temperament?"

"Yes, this book is a negative case," Ji Ming put down the script and nodded: "No matter how much cover it up, it can't cover its vulgarity." ”

"Huh?"

Yang Ruyi was a little surprised.,This book should be a good project.。 From completing the script to determining the project, and then from determining the project to making a movie, and then to appearing in theaters and video websites, every step is a view of life and death, and the number is reduced in geometric progression.

When Beijing Culture gave the book to Yang Ruyi, it said that the above is still more optimistic about this comedy, which means that it has a high probability of breaking through layers of levels.

"Then it's back?"

"Okay," Ji Ming didn't hesitate, with that kung fu, he might as well act in dramas, his interest in some new-school dramas is actually quite strong, such as the Broadway book "Nightmare" given by Mr. Yang in the line class, Ji Ming is a little itchy, this is an impulse that a bad book can't give him.

"Then I'll talk, okay. Yang Ruyi turned the computer around: "It's a big agreement to come down with such a few designs, and the staff of Salvatore Ferragamo will come over to measure you later, including the feet——"

"I wash my feet, every day, it's very fragrant. ”

"......" Who talked to you about this, Yang Ruyi was helpless: "I mean customized shoes, it shouldn't be possible to complete it before Cannes, and the clothes can be in a hurry, but the shoes they customize the procedure is more perfect, and it takes more time, so before that, they will send some ready-to-wear shoes from Milan to Cannes, and then they will match them together." ”

"Are these manufacturers looking to turn any public event into a fashion week?"

"It should be said that they want to turn anything into money. ”

Oh the truth.

Ji Ming was immediately impressed by Yang Ruyi: "Your ideological consciousness has improved a little fast recently, it seems that you have been influenced by me." ”

"Didn't you wash your feet, and smoke them?"

“......”

Ji Ming himself looked at a few designs, mentioned a few points, and then negotiated with the other party - this highlights that he needs a stylist with fashion taste, and the era of agents, and even makeup artists making cameos is out of place.

"I'm going to have to work hard to find someone. ”

"You can ask Vogue and Bazaar to see if there's anything to recommend. ”

"Hmm. ”

Ji Ming continued to write the paper, and waited until the staff of the Fei family came over with a large toolbox, then got up to change places, and when he packed up the manuscript paper, he happened to see a few lines of character settings...... Because of an unexpected car accident, Li Chunxia slept for fifteen years......"

He paused, put it away, and threw it into the cabinet of scrap scripts.

......

Tailor-made, Ji Ming really hasn't experienced it, maybe his figure is more "one-size", or too standard, a few classmates wanted to say to customize a set of formal clothes for later use, but after Ji Ming went, when the tailor saw him, he squinted his eyes, looked at it for a few more minutes, and took a few sets of different styles of ready-to-wear over, saying let him try it first, and the result was effective.

It's not much worse than customization, and it can be ignored.

Considering that the price of customization is more than twice as expensive, Ji Ming naturally chose a set, and then asked for a little style, fabric, color and pattern, etc., which can be regarded as a finalization - let Tan Ziyang, who spent more money, be indignant.

"Oh~"

The Fei family still attaches great importance to it, and it is an Italian woman who is transferred from home.

Seeing Ji Ming's figure, if the other party were Chinese, he would whistle when he looked at it - Ji Ming felt a little uncomfortable, he was left with a big pants, and he didn't know why the other party got a woman over.

"I didn't expect your country's big stars to be so conservative," Belica joked with Ji Ming while skillfully measuring various data: "Are you thinking, why is a female designer to help you do this?"

"Huh?"

Belica took the soft ruler and told the assistant the data, then looked at Ji Ming and smiled mischievously: "Because the male designers of our company are more dangerous for you." Especially after seeing your figure, wow, after. And I, the mother of two children, have no courage to be a thief even if I have a thief's heart. ”

Ji Ming can actually listen to Italian a rough idea, foreign language learning seems to be an addition to various wishing and wishing tasks, when he sings a lot of Italian operas and tunes to learn vocal music, he will also quickly master Italian, although it is not a professional level, but general communication is no longer a big problem.

But the translation of "There is a thief's heart but not a thief's courage" still makes him admire the translation brother very much.

Cow beep.

Belica is obviously good at making customers relax, and Ji Ming is much more comfortable now. You must know that her customers are not more celebrities or actors, but rich people, and even the entire elite class, among which there are not a few who are not suitable for being measured.

If it doesn't make people comfortable, how can people come back? Luxury goods are actually repeat business, and sometimes a customer has done it, maybe it is a lifelong business.

If the measurement is still more traditional, a tape measure here and there, but it is relatively cumbersome, and the data is a little more.

Then the customization of the shoes is more refined, Belica took out the white paper and a slightly thicker board from the toolbox, first let Ji Ming put on thin socks, step on the white paper, must be measured in a state of complete force, and have to use the strength on that foot, first draw around the edge of the foot, this is still a bit skillful, because the heel paper cannot be completely fitted, so when drawing, it takes experience.

Once you're done, measure the width of the forefoot, the width and circumference of the heel, the height between the arch and the instep, and the entire circumference...... Fortunately, I washed my feet, otherwise I would be so embarrassed to squat and smell for a long time.

After measuring, Belica asked Ji Ming to step a slightly thicker board, and a footprint was formed.

"This is a new material that we have only used in recent years, and the footprints combined with the data just now can give the production staff a clearer idea of the condition of your feet, so as to customize shoes that fit you better. Belica put away the two sheets of paper, along with the blank paper just now, and put them back in the toolbox: "Okay, then you can wait for the most suitable shoes." Oh, you put on your clothes first, I think I'm overestimating my concentration, youthful, strong, so beautiful. ”

"I thought Italian women had a lot of concentration. Ji Ming joked with her while getting dressed.

Italian men, it seems, are as famous as their handmade.

Belica smiled heartily, she was an Italian girl: "Do you think all the men in Italy are Sulfaro? That's just in the movie." Do you think I'm the same as Monica Bellucci?"

Surfaro is the male protagonist of "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", and the heroine is the Italian national treasure beauty Monica Bellucci.

"That makes sense. ”

After the measurement, the staff of the Fei family talked to Yang Ruyi and them for a while, in addition to the clothes and shoes, of course, there is also the itinerary - the other party will send the clothes and shoes to Cannes before the opening of Cannes, from Milan to Cannes, of course, it is more convenient than going around from China, and the time is more appropriate.

In addition, the Philippines also has some fashion advice, such as whether to wear a watch, and the choice of a watch......

On the surface, he just went to Cannes to walk the red carpet a few times, but the amount of work behind the scenes is beyond the imagination of ordinary people, especially the media and sponsors, both of which are manpower-intensive work.

A star is a listed company, which makes sense.

Ji Ming, who was especially unaccustomed to this rhythm, was even more exhausted.

......

"Oh, what's wrong? I thought you were in a hurry, now, Cannes. Song Yi handed Ji Ming a bottle of water, and watched him close his eyes and recuperate, a little surprised.

Look, even insiders see it this way, let alone outside, if you dare to say that you are too tired, you have to be scolded to death.

"The recent work is a bit new and has to be adapted. ”

Song Yi was stunned for a moment, and then began to be happy, happy to death.

"I know, you haven't adapted to the working state of top stars," Song Yi couldn't help laughing: "According to my imagination, there is no way, I can only imagine." For top stars, acting, in the proportion of your work, it is estimated that at most a small half, right? More fashion endorsements, business activities, celebrity communication, and so on. You've been hiding in the theater before, hiding on the set, and now after Cannes and that endorsement come together, you can be regarded as returning to the original working state, isn't it a little uncomfortable?"

Ji Ming thought about it and opened his eyes: "It's true." ”

"It's not easy to be a top star, you, from now on, the responsibility will be greater and the freedom will be less. ”

“...... Think I haven't brushed Kangxi? ”

"Hahaha. ”

Today is the last time Ji Ming went to Cannes to rehearse, although the psychological pressure is quite high, but after taking the stage, Ji Ming still performed very well, a mature actor must be able to do a good job of separating himself and the role, and the role is the biggest when he is on stage.

"Oh, it's amazing, in two days we are going to walk the red carpet in Cannes, dressed very brightly, and then there are flashing lights everywhere, big stars coming and going, and the entertainment media all over the world are staring at ...... As a result, I saw him pick his feet when he changed his shoes. "Lan Yingying is quite lively.

Ji Ming also rolled his eyes: "After picking it, I still sniffed my hands, didn't I see it?"

"Wow~"

"Beware of fungal infections. Wang Lei also came over to add, and was very happy to catch up with the trend of young people and say a stalk.

Obviously, this is not a new meme.

From Ji Ming's rather coping laughter, Wang Lei felt a trace of embarrassment and was ashamed of it, and then slapped Ji Ming, it really hurt.

"What, what, I've cooperated with you, and I'm still beating people. ”

Xiao Yueyue's tone.

Even the staff laughed.

"You see, that's humor. Ji Ming taught Wang Lei.

Wang Lei pursed his lips: "It's all little girls who laugh, it's not because of your face." ”

"Originally, otherwise, do you think humor has nothing to do with face? Teacher Huang Bo is a minority, you go out to see, it's all handsome guys telling jokes that are not funny at all, and then the girls next to them are giggling, and there is an interesting soul next to them, and no one cares about what they say. People's hearts are not ancient. ”

“......”

With this face, isn't it a bit unreasonable to say that "people's hearts are not ancient".

"I'll see you later. ”

"Bring some souvenirs back. ”

"If Mr. Cao doesn't care, I'll introduce you to an Italian man? ”

“...... Pick at you. ”

Ji Ming left from Renyi and saw some creatures that seemed to be humans, as if they were squatting - Ji Ming, who was about to leave Cannes, was very newsworthy, and he would post a manuscript at this time, "Ji Ming, who is about to leave Cannes, still appeared at Renyi Theater to rehearse a new drama a few days ago", and he must not offend people, and there can be a large wave of traffic, how good.

But they couldn't shoot it, because Ji Ming came over with a different car today - I have to say that Yang Ruyi is also getting more and more experienced, and he has transferred a car from the company in the past few days to avoid being caught and hyping up the trip.

Enough of the heat, avoid overdoing it now.

"Huh?"

"What's wrong?" Lin Ran was holding the computer, connected to the mobile phone hotspot, and was working at the speed of the wind.

"It's okay, you're busy. Ji Ming saw the WeChat group of the youth version of "Thunderstorm", and Zhu Man said something, and was a little surprised: "Sister Bai is sick?"

Bai Feng, who came back for the New Year at the beginning of the year, waited for Ji Ming outside the Red Dot Theater, and finally took her car back to school.

The group was quiet for a while, and then suddenly became active.

"Ji Ming, are you out? Sister Bai had a physical examination in the unit before, and found a tumor, but it was benign and not very big, and the doctor said that there was nothing wrong with the incision. Juman explained to him.

Sister Bai herself was a little worried, so she was hesitating. Lu Tao also added.

"But in the end, I guess I still have to do it, I think the dean is looking for her. "Zhao Han also has news.

This state unit is really no secret.

"Oh, I'll ask you when you come back. ”

Ji Ming made a phone call in the car, Sister Bai was at home, her husband went to work, and the children went to school, she was alone, she may have been too surprised to receive a call from Ji Ming, and she felt that everyone had a good relationship, so she cried when she said it, she didn't think that she would get a tumor. He also said that he had decided to have surgery, and it was arranged in mid-May, and he was a famous surgeon who came forward to help in the hospital.

Except for comforting, Ji Ming couldn't do much.

"Then you can do the operation with peace of mind, and when I come back to see you, you will be alive again in a few days. ”

"You treat me as a fish. Bai Feng cried and relaxed a little: "Then you work hard, in fact, I also know that it's not a big deal, but I'm so nervous that I'm scared, in case it's a malignant one, the baby is still so young." ”

"Lin Ran, when I went back to Cannes, you found someone to help me prepare some fruits and the like, and go to see a patient. ”

Always have to go before surgery.

"Good. Lin Ran transferred the memo and added a message: "Then you rest for a while, adjust your state, and we will pick you up in the morning." ”

It was only at this moment that the throbbing of going to a movie hall suddenly and logically gradually rippled out of Ji Ming's soul - Jafari Patti, Hirokazu Kore-eda, Jean-Luc Godard, Li Cangdong...... An extremely rich treasure trove of films.

Call~

For the sake of the good, to endure the bad, isn't it life?

Suddenly philosophical.
