Chapter 117: Words Don't Speculate (2/6)

A good actor, seeing a good script, and having a character in it that suits him very well...

It's as if you arrive at the clubhouse, leave when you're done, and then catch a glimpse of Teacher No. 3, who happens to be the type you've always dreamed of!

What to do?

A must come once!

Otherwise, you're going to have a hard time...

It may be a bit wrong to say this, but you get the idea...

Jiang Wen really likes "Rescue Mr. Wu", he likes Huazi's unruly energy, in addition, he prefers Huazi's image of a madman who doesn't pay attention to the rules!

In the script, Huazi said the most common line: 'How did you catch me?'

Including being interrogated by the police, his attitude is also 'whoever arrests me, I will talk to whom!'

In fact, judging from the image of the actor alone, Jiang Wen is obviously a little anxious, with a twenty-year-old age and a forty-year-old face.

Ma Weidu would go to the Chinese opera to find a girl to play, and when he saw Jiang Wen for the first time, he felt a sarcasm in his heart: Is there anything like this in the Chinese opera?

Young and old, with a thick voice, two ears outward, and a rich line tone, as an actor, the congenital conditions are not outstanding.

But his unruly, high-minded, and stubborn temperament is indeed like the distinctive bricks burned in the kiln of the compound.

Most of the scenes he takes are hard, and the soft parts of his body seem to be congenitally malnourished...

However, in the early days, he was willing to challenge himself and challenge the weak parts of his roles, such as Chen Huiyi, Pu Yi, Li Lianying, and Cheng Dieyi and other roles - of course, Cheng Dieyi failed to act...

It's useless, Zhang Yimou understands him, "Red Sorghum", a work with Jiang Wen's recognition in the real sense, the kind of unruly, lonely, violent, and wild hormonal factors in his bones can be fully swayed.

The roughness, banditry, and chivalrous courage of the bandit Yu Zhanao were interpreted by Jiang Wen vividly, which basically restored the appearance of the characters in Mo Yan's book, and also laid the foundation for Jiang Wen's performance style in the future.

Lu Xiaoran looked for him, just because he valued the vigor on him!

He knew that Jiang Wen was reluctant to take on the repetitive role...

Jiang Wen himself said: It's not about money, I don't think it's interesting.

"Rescue Mr. Wu" is definitely a good script, and he is also interested in the role of Huazi...

The problem is, Lu Xiaoran doesn't seem to be willing to let him get more involved in film work, and only let him play his own role...

What's so good about that?

After he went back that day, he threw the script into the script pile, but he still couldn't put it down...

I always feel that such a good role has been played by others, and I am unwilling...

After holding it for two months, Lu Xiaoran never called him!

So what to do?

After inquiring about him filming on the East Second Ring Road, he killed him directly...

……

When he arrived at the hotel and saw a group of people saying goodbye, Jiang Wen was a little confused and asked, "You... Are you done?"

"Well, I had a meal of wine yesterday, Mr. Jiang Wen, you sit down first, and I'll ask the waiter to send a pot of tea!"

About three minutes later, Lu Xiaoran appeared in Jiang Wen's sight with a bowl of noodles...

"I'm sorry, I haven't had breakfast yet..."

Jiang Wen waved his hand: "You eat yours, don't worry about me!"

Lu Xiaoran picked up the chopsticks and began to eat noodles...

Jiang Wen looked at him, and then asked, "I remember that your play was started last month, right?"

“… Almost. ”

"How can it be so fast?"

“… This drama is a low-budget comedy, 90 minutes, all relying on lines to drive the plot, the scene is a small supermarket, and it is relatively simple to shoot..."

Lu Xiaoran explained.

"That's too fast, it's been done in more than a month?"

"In less than a month, the filming was completed in 27 days, and we are ready to release it in August!"

"So how do you guarantee the quality of the movie?"

Lu Xiaoran stopped his chopsticks: "... We have done all the storyboards before making the movie, and the actors have also selected the most suitable ones, both experience and acting skills, and the rest is to follow the shooting plan specified by the production team..."

Here's how most crews workflow:

After the general production list is released, a detailed shooting plan will be drawn up, which is specific to the workload of each day, also called a bulletin.

The notice sheet will indicate the filming sequence, scenes, scenes, actors involved, costumes, make-up props, plot, etc.

According to the regulations, how many shots are shot in a day, Hollywood will generally hand over the shots to the producer for review, and the mainland crew is made by the director-center, and the inspection is done after filming.

Lu Xiaoran likes this kind of regulation very much, and only by doing things according to the rules can there be a specific process for everything!

Jiang Wen shook his head, obviously not interested in this kind of answer: "You still haven't said that in such a short time, how can the quality of the movie be guaranteed!"

"It's called an industrial process, and that's what the crew should do!"

"What about the quality of the film?"

Lu Xiaoran put down the bowl again: "Teacher Jiang Wen, I am the kind of person who pays special attention to the rules, and I am also a filmmaker who is very planned, before I prepare the crew, I will think about everything in advance, the script, lines, actors... In this way, the film will at least reach my goal line!"

"What about art and props?"

"What?"

"Let me ask you what about the crew's art and props?"

“… They're in charge of themselves, I never knew that the director had to learn props?"

Jiang Wen said coldly: "I make movies, and I have to take into account all the details, including the makeup of every actor..."

Lu Xiaoran simply stopped eating noodles: "But your aesthetics don't match the audience's aesthetics, why don't you hand over professional things to more professional people?"

"I make movies because I like them, what does it matter to me whether the audience likes them or not?"

That's so domineering!

“… Cinema is popular art, you can't just think about your own ideas, a movie, if the audience doesn't approve of it, I'd rather not make it!"

"So what's the point of making a movie?"

"Then you only care about pleasing yourself, if the audience doesn't like it, what should investors do? People pay you to make movies..."

Lu Xiaoran continued: "What is the definition of a good movie? Many people like it, or do some of the most exclusive people like it?"

"I always believe that most people applaud is good, because this is collective wisdom, and the method and direction of this wisdom improvement ultimately fall on people who have both vision and strength. Because only they are capable of doing it. ”

Jiang Wen was choked up, but still said: "Commercial films are children's movies, it's not interesting!"

"If you think it's boring, then it's boring..."

Too lazy to continue chatting, Lu Xiaoran didn't even want to mention "Rescue Mr. Wu"...

It is impossible for Jiang Wen to be an actor at all, unless he doesn't like this play and purely copes with it!

But this possibility does not exist, if he doesn't like it, it is impossible to come to see Lu Xiaoran three times or twice simply for the salary!
