Oucks always believed that the joining of Lan Li could have a devastating change in the artistic creation of the whole film, which was also the root cause of his rejection.

In fact, not only Auels, not only Europe, but the entire film industry should be prone to misunderstanding-

Now there are absolutely very few actors in the entire industry who can have such a momentum as Lan Li, Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks and a few others, and these actors all hold the producer power of the crew, whether they interfere and how they interfere, this is a personal matter, but they do have the ability to change the movement of the entire crew;

That's what it means to be in his place. If Lan Li refuses to take power, what can other actors who want to be in power do? There are many similarities between producer power and salary level, and Lan Li can retain his personality but not resist the power of the entire industry.

What's more, Lan Li also founded Sisyphus Films, and has participated in the production of "Nightcrawler", "Burst Drummer", "Interstellar" and "Jurassic World" and other works, plus "Fast and Exciting 7" and the behind-the-scenes intervention of the Gaiden series, which also shows Lan Li's ambition and ability for the position of producer, and he has undoubtedly become one of the most powerful top producers in Hollywood today, not even one:

After all, Lan Li is undefeated in his career so far.

Therefore, Oels, the whole film industry around the world has produced a posture of assumption: Lan Li is the biggest name today, then he should be treated accordingly, as for Lan Li's humility and whether the cooperation is smooth, for outsiders, they have no way of knowing, which is also the main source of prejudice and misunderstanding - from ignorance.

“…… I thought you were trying to take control of your creation. ”

After all, Ogles is still an honest man, and he honestly said his thoughts, which made Lan Li a little helpless, but also a little funny.

To be honest, it doesn't taste good to be misunderstood and wronged, but this is also one of the negative effects of "being overwhelmed by the cold in high places", and this is not the first time and will not be the last.

Lan Li chuckled, "Trust me, if I try to snatch it, you won't have a chance to resist. The strong domineering revealed in the understatement made Ogles choke directly.

If he had a strong personality, he might have flipped the table towards Lan Li at this time, but Owgels was a gentle personality, depressed for a long time, and finally couldn't say a reason - he knew that Lan Li was serious, if Sisyphus Pictures bought out the production rights, and then forced to revise the script, or arranged to participate in the cast, then Oulgels would have almost no ability to resist.

Is there less of a similar situation in Hollywood?

Leaving aside the countless ghosts in the hands of the early film and television managers of the six major film companies, there are countless art films that Weinstein Pictures alone has used such methods to stifle, and almost a dozen or more appear every year. For Harvey Weinstein, all the work of art that doesn't create value during awards season is meaningless, and he doesn't feel guilty about destroying the work of an independent filmmaker's life.

“…… You won't, will you?" Ogles held his breath for a long time, and finally said a word, and then stared at Lan Li nervously, lest Lan Li say an answer of denial.

Lan Li didn't have any special expression, just looked at Ogles quietly, that calm expression made Ogles panic little by little, and couldn't help lowering his gaze, avoiding Lan Li's gaze, but then raised his eyes again, hoping to find the answer from Lan Li's eyes.

Then, the smile on the corner of Lan Li's mouth rose, a little helpless - sometimes, he also felt anger, but after the anger was helpless, he thought that he had shown enough sincerity, and the long discussion just now had already indicated his attitude and position.

But the reality is that misunderstandings still exist. Many times, he can't even make a defense, and more often than not, it doesn't make sense.

Faced with the simplicity and honesty of Eggs, "No, I won't. Lan Li replied in the affirmative, and then calmly explained, "What I'm good at is still acting, not a screenwriter, let alone a director." Lan Li could clearly feel that Ogels's whole person relaxed, "Some of what I have elaborated may be applicable, but some are not, and in the end you still need to complete the integration, and finally tell me how to perform." ”

"Ogels, I'm an actor and I'm just an actor. After speaking, a light smile rose on the corner of Lan Li's mouth, but a touch of loneliness slipped under his eyes.

If even European art directors can't believe him, then Hollywood is even more impossible. This reminds Lan Li of the cautious attitude of the Berlin Film Festival and the Venice Film Festival, who have always been hesitant about Sisyphus Film and Don Quixote's channel, more or less related to Lan Li and Hollywood. The conflict between business and art is always a key issue that cannot be reconciled.

Ogles is a delicate and emotionally sensitive otaku, he is keenly aware of Lan Li's mood swings, but he can't analyze the specific content, he vaguely guesses:

Could it be that his words hurt Lan Li?

But that mixed mood was fleeting, and before Owgels had time to savor it, it disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if it had never happened.

"So, what do you think? Can I get some inspiration from my idea?, or do you have other revisions?" Lan Li pulled the topic back again, and that calm gesture brought Ogels' thoughts back on track.

"Uh...... I need a little time. Ogles hesitated, his first reaction was this, but he immediately realized that there was an ambiguity in the sentence, "I mean, revise the script, I need a little time to revise the script." Your ideas are brilliant and give me a lot of inspiration in terms of character design. ”

"David can be divorced or single, but more importantly, the reason for the divorce, and his personality, will all have an impact on the development of the subsequent story and the lines and reactions of the characters. This means that the script may require significant and extensive revisions. ”

Ochels, a little excited and a little annoyed, grabbed his hair and scratched his head anxiously - the joyful kind, "My original plan was to start filming in December, and we would stay in England or Ireland and use the winter here to finish the shooting, and we would use as much natural light as possible to create that gloomy and cold atmosphere, all natural, but if I need to revise the script now, phew, I don't know." Isn't that too hasty? It took me almost a year to complete the script, and it took me almost three months to revise it. ”

Lan Li didn't respond, because this was the director's own work, and he didn't need to meddle - unless he became a producer, and the director asked for help.

"Oh, sorry, I'm talking to myself again. Oucks quickly realized that he had made a mistake again, and then let out a long breath, "I think that after the script is revised, it will definitely be able to be renewed, but now the problem is that many character details should be plump, I don't have a clear idea, as if the character is full of vitality, not for me to set, but for the character to have its own development." ”

"Do you think we can work on the script while we're shooting? I mean, can we do it at the same time, sit down and discuss the development of the plot and the changes in the characters when we need to, or do you think we should finish the script and then start shooting?"

Ogles raised his gaze and asked Lan Li's opinion.

"I haven't tried it, but I think it's a very interesting challenge. "Lan Li told the truth - in fact, not all directors have scripts, just like the famous home/guard-wang.

Shooting "Spring/Light/Leakage" and "2046" When waiting for the work, the actors don't have a script, they don't know what they're performing, except for the director, no one knows the plot and context of the story at all, but in fact, even the director himself doesn't have a complete script, basically he shoots wherever he wants; every day, before the actors are officially put into filming, they get a few lines and some emotions, and then they start filming directly, many times, the actors don't know what their characters are doing.

Writing a script while filming is indeed uncommon in the mature assembly line of Hollywood, but it is not impossible, it mainly depends on the director's style, and there are countless cases of revising the script while shooting.

However, Lan Li has never experienced such a situation, even if he was "detached" at the beginning, Tony Kaye only constantly adjusted his emotions on the basis of the script, and the actors have a clear understanding of the whole story and characters; if the lines are adjusted on the spot, or even the plot direction is created on the spot, it will put forward higher requirements for the actors, which is also another form of performance.

To be honest, Lan Li was a little eager to try.

After Chao/Wei-Liang Hezi/Yi-Zhang and other actors filmed Jia/Wei-Wang's works, they all complained bitterly, and even publicly stated that they would never take his scenes again in the future, because it was indeed a terrible torture, but the next time the director called, they still showed up honestly.

Now Lan Li is a little yearning for this kind of "torture", which is different from all previous performance experiences, and the live performance may be able to trigger different creative inspirations, which is bound to be a very interesting thing.

But looking forward to anticipation, Lan Li still needs to ask one thing, "Eggs, what do you mean now, are you going to officially send me an invitation to perform?
