PS: Ask for a recommended ticket, ask for a monthly pass!

In the black-and-white conference room, sunlight poured into the room, and groups of crew members gathered together to swallow smoke and exhale smoke.

Ye Weixin cleverly helped the people in each position to present information.

"Hello, I'm Gong Li~"

The tall and graceful palace emperor smiled and greeted Liang Jiahui, who was smoking with his legs crossed.

She knows the reputation of the other party, and the play is very good.

"Hello, hello!"

Liang Jiahui put away his legs, got up with a smile and stretched out his hand, "Liang Jiahui." ”

The staff on Hong Kong Island also greeted Chen Kaige, Gu Changwei and others one by one.

No one knows if there is a small abacus in my heart, but on the surface, I must be hello, hello, everyone. Wu Xiaozu's prestige is enough to deter many people who have some careful thoughts. But no one in this crew dares to take the lead.

They are all Wu Xiaozu's royal team, and they heard earlier that they were going to shoot a co-production martial arts movie.

At this time, co-productions have begun to become the mantra of many Hong Kong Island film and television industry practitioners. The frenzied influx of capital gave Hong Kong people support to go north.

It is foreseeable that in the next five years, more and more Hong Kong Island filmmakers will go north for filming more and more frequently. This has also been true historically. Even, mainland movie stars can be on Hong Kong Island, which shows the attitude of film capital.

Why five years?

Because, five years later, Wanwan Capital and the Hong Kong Island Producers Association collapsed, and since then, Wanwan has relaxed its restrictions on Hollywood, and the last box office in Asia has also fallen.

The only thing that hasn't fallen is the Dongying market problem, and that market is self-congratulatory. It's hard to keep their finger on the pulse......

"Azu asked us to go to his office, you go to Azu's office first and wait for me, I'll go to the bathroom. Aunt Lin smiled and said to Gong Li.

"Okay. ”

……

Da-da-da

Gong Li stepped on high heels, walked through several offices, and walked into the innermost office.

There is no nameplate such as "General Manager" or "Manager's Office" on the outside, but the words "Wu Xiaozu" written on the small seal under the simple black "John Woo".

The wooden door is ajar.

"Bang bang bang...... Someone?"

Gong Li called lightly, and found that no one answered inside. He frowned and wanted to turn away, but after thinking about it, he pushed the door and walked in.

The eye is a square shadow wall, the middle is a circular glass inlay, the inside outlines the eight horses, and there is a dark yellow wall lamp on the top, which is very stylish.

Behind is a bay with trophies on the cabinet, black marble countertops on both sides, a bonsai of welcome pines on each side, and a pair of words 'gentleman is not a weapon' hanging on the wall.

The whole is mainly dark gray, supplemented by black and white, but the welcome pine, blue classical chandelier, and yellow lines embellishment give people the feeling of brightness and personality, and the elegant charm is about to come out, obviously the owner of this office is very tonal

Style.

Simple but not simple, finely carved, elegant modeling, conveying a strong oriental aesthetic charm, but there is no lack of bold attempts, metal ornaments can be seen at will, and the edging of chairs in the reception area is made of genuine leather.

The smooth marble floor echoes the space.

This is a proper luxury of the new Chinese style.

In this era, Hong Kong Island is absolutely unique.

Gong Li slowly looked at the four ink paintings dressed as screens hanging on the wall.

The first, a towering tree with dead branches, a swordsman holding a sword in his arms, standing in front of the tree, and the second, a female silhouette in a palace skirt, with her chin upturned and looking into the distance. In the third painting, the lonely boat is floating on the river, the birds are frightened, and the remnant sun is reflected. In the fourth, the buffalo walks slowly on a rugged mountain road, and the lights are dim.

"These four paintings are all the original drawings of the script I recently drew for Dragon Gate Ke Li. ”

The abrupt voice broke Gong Li's contemplation, turned his head, and in his beautiful eyes, Wu Xiaozu was wearing a cotton and linen three-quarter sleeve cardigan and cotton and linen cropped pants and stood beside her with his arms crossed with a smile.

Brother Chen Kai, Gu Changwei, Fei Cheng, and Liang Jiahui were also standing behind them, obviously what time had everyone arrived.

"I just saw these paintings, and I couldn't help myself...... Excuse me. Director Wu—"

Gong Li hurriedly apologized, then was slightly surprised, and said very straightforwardly, "You mean, these four paintings are the conceptual drawings of the movie?"

Brother Chen Kai also showed doubts on his face, and looked at Wu Xiaozu with inquiring eyes.

"It's okay—"

Wu Xiaozu smiled warmly and looked indifferent, "Since you want to shoot costume martial arts, you have to study Chinese paintings and Chinese aesthetics." Otherwise, isn't it a bit too nondescript to use Western oil painting aesthetics and theatrical theories to photograph Oriental beauty? I think there is no concept that can express Oriental aesthetics better than our ink landscapes. ”

Hong Kong and Taiwan are deeply influenced by the West, and in fact, the mainland's film creation, including aesthetics, color, creative thinking, composition design and performance theory, uses the same Western set.

Because the visual arts themselves were brought over from the West, as a student, it is inevitable to be infected with these qualities.

In their previous lives, Xiao Mouzi and Kai Ge were called masters. It is because they are constantly exploring the infinite possibilities of oriental aesthetics in visual communication. Walking to their place, the movie will definitely have a qualitative change in what it carries for them.

Therefore, in the future, Brother Kai will choose to shoot "The Legend of the Demon Cat", and Xiao Mouzi will choose to shoot "Shadow".

Even though many of the same period movies have a higher market box office than theirs, it is believed that there is no richer and fuller thing carried by the two.

"Oriental Aesthetic ......"

Chen Kaige, who didn't pay much attention to the paintings, suddenly set his eyes on these four paintings, and Gu Changwei, who was a photographer on his side, walked directly in front of the four paintings, stuck to them, and carefully measured them.

"Is there a difference?" Liang Jiahui also asked curiously.

"What do you guys drink...... Plain water or tea?"

Wu Xiaozu led a few people into the reception area and motioned for everyone to sit down.

"I'll do it~"

Angry, Aunt Lin, who had just walked in, turned around and helped everyone get the cup herself, and looked at Wu Xiaozu as the first one to explore.

"Plain water is fine - thank you. ”

Wu Xiaozu sat opposite everyone, crossed his legs, took the water cup handed by Lin Mitao with both hands, protected it between his hands, took a sip, and muttered for a while.

"I also want to talk to you about some things at the beginning of creation. Including the image style and creative intention of this "Dragon Gate Guest".

Maybe you all call it a martial arts movie or a costume kung fu movie, right?"

Gong Li nodded, she did think so. Not only her, but everyone else thought the same way.

Liang Jiahui wore glasses, and also turned his face sideways, staring at Wu Xiaozu for answers.

Gong Li didn't hide his true thoughts, and asked curiously at the first time, "Isn't it?"

Compared with Hong Kong and Taiwan actresses, she is a little more atmospheric and stubborn in her bones.

This temperament is not formed naturally by the environment, experience, books read, and things seen. In Hong Kong and Taiwan, the narrow geographical environment restricts the emergence of this aura.

Among the new Mesozoic actresses in Hong Kong and Taiwan, Aunt Lin is half counted, Hui Yinghong is heroic, and Zheng Peipei is chivalrous, but it is always much worse. On the contrary, among the actresses in the 50s and 60s before, Xia Meng and Lin Dai were the closest, but the times limited them.

In general, Xiao Mouzi has just entered the film industry, and she has not yet tapped the full potential of Gong Li, and she is still a little immature at this time.

Wu Xiaozu is not stingy, and he can reluctantly train and train with his own hands! Who makes everyone want to be good for Chinese movies......

"Actually, I'd rather call this film a historical film. Because, I think that whether it is a martial arts film or a kung fu movie, it is always not enough to express the weight and all the essence of the two words Jianghu. ”

Wu Xiaozu took a sip slowly, glanced at Gong Li with a smile, and finally fixed on Brother Chen Kai and Gu Changwei, "What do you all think of the rivers and lakes?"

"Chivalrous?" Gong Li tried to decipher.

"The rivers and lakes may mean disputes?" Gu Changwei also added.

Liang Jiahui showed a serious expression, and Chen Kaige also thought silently.

"River-Lake ......"

Aunt Lin held a cup of tea and sat on the armrest of Wu Xiaozu's hand, her peach buttocks next to his arm, and she muttered these two words in her mouth.

"Is there only chivalry in the rivers and lakes? If so, then it is definitely not the rivers and lakes I want to photograph. There must be chivalry in the rivers and lakes, but chivalry is not all in the rivers and lakes. Disputes, fights, killings, interests, and intrigues, I think these are all rivers and lakes.

The rivers and lakes may be 'the green mountains do not change, the green water flows for a long time', the rivers and lakes are still 'drizzling rain riding a donkey into the sword gate, complaining about the, talking about the sword wildly, two ecstasy!', or 'killing one person in ten steps, leaving no line for a thousand miles.' But isn't it 'the boat is gone, and the rivers and seas will live for the rest of their lives'?

Maybe Brother Kai and Miss Gong don't know me well. I myself have been an old boy before, which is what the mainland calls the underworld forces. I also worked in prison for a few years.

For me, the rivers and lakes may also be a pity. But this regret is not the same as regret, it may be—"

Wu Xiaozu took a few words and chuckled, "I thought about it but didn't do it, I didn't think about it, I wanted to put it into an unforgettable place, but I couldn't help but laugh when I thought about it." ”

Each of his films has a strong An Muxi ...... Each one is engraved with its own style imprint. Each film also shows the life and texture that it gives to it.

He is also making progress and innovating in every play.

In this respect, he is certainly enough to be called a new generation of film masters in the Chinese film reserve!

The crowd was savoring his words.

This is obviously the creative idea of "Dragon Gate Guest". Obviously, this is not the kind of martial arts film they think they are.

"For us filmmakers, the rivers and lakes are too big and too complicated, but what are the rivers and lakes?

Perhaps, some people will say that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. This statement is comprehensive, but not accurate.

To be precise, the rivers and lakes will always belong to a small number of people, and for most people, the rivers and lakes will always be a legend outside the market.

But it itself has fireworks, so we will say that the rivers and lakes are not only fighting and killing, but also the world.

In this way, the rivers and lakes may also be desires!

This kind of affection, as if it exists outside the market, seems to be the public's favorite rivers and lakes.

It is precisely because of this sense of distance that it adds a bit of unclear charm to the 'rivers and lakes'.

This is similar to that of Chinese painting. ”

Wu Xiaozu smiled, looked at Gong Li, who was in deep thought, and continued:

"In Chinese painting, the emphasis is on blank space!

Ink and water, black is ink, white is paper.

Three strokes and two paintings, cherish ink like gold.

A few brushstrokes of Danqing, in this square inch to outline the world, the blank space without painting, after all, has become the furrow and realm in the mind of the calligrapher and painter.

You look at the Southern Song Dynasty's "Solo Fishing in the Cold River" - a small boat, a fisherman is fishing, there is no trace of water in the whole painting, and people feel that the smoke and waves are vast, and the whole canvas is full of water. ”

Wu Xiaozu refers to an ancient painting on the wall for everyone to interpret.

"It's the same with movies. I hope that the composition of this play will definitely not be so full. It's certainly a bit different from the cinematic language we have now. That's why I asked Ah Cheng to give you some ancient paintings to look at......"

He set his eyes on Gu Changwei.

He has great expectations for this representative photographer in the mainland.

Gu Changwei's photographic style is to focus on the effect of printmaking, black and white, and pay great attention to the perception of light, but the overall color is handled very reasonably, and the use of small scenes is very superb.

He was named one of the "100 Outstanding Photographers of the Century" by Eastman Kodak, and was once awarded the title of "China's No. 1 Photographer" by mainland and foreign media.

Obviously, he is good enough to hold this honor.

Even the "Peacock" after he became a director, his control of the sense of space is also very clever.

The picture of Zhang Jingchu's sister pushing a bicycle and standing in the wheat field is really like an ink painting, which not only reveals enough character tension, but also gives more blank space and remote imagination.

Gu Changwei's photography is known as sanity and restraint under excitement.

This is very much in line with "Dragon Gate Guest"!

Gong Li held the water glass, his eyes shining at the painting on the wall.

At this moment, she inexplicably has a feeling of 'seeing herself, seeing heaven and earth, and seeing all living beings'.

In "Red Sorghum", she felt the wildest and most essential sense of locality. Outside the film, there may be a hint of vitality showing. It seems that she is finding out how to be an actor.

Today, I feel the shock that there is a sky outside the sky and there are people outside the people.

It seems like...... Possible...... Probably...... Xiao Mouzi's image is shrinking. The other party must not be able to tell Wu Xiaozu's 'sanctimonious' analysis.

"Is the role decided?" asked Brother Chen.

"I have another choice for the actor. The supporting characters are also in between. Screening will be completed in the near future, and all will be trained before shooting. If you have an inappropriate schedule, you should talk to me in advance. Wu Xiaozu replied with a smile.

Everyone glanced at Liang Jiahui in surprise.

Two-time Golden Statue Actor, the queen actor is not the leading actor??

Liang Xiaokou smiled instead, jokingly laughing at himself, "He is afraid that I will be more beautiful than him, so he is reluctant to give me the male lead!"

Everyone laughed.

"I will arrange the training plan, and I can take time off, but I have to complete the preparation before shooting. Wu Xiaozu smiled, and at this time he deliberately looked at Liang Jiahui.

No way.

The mainland staff is definitely better arranged, but Liang Jiahui is now popular, and the drama is continuous, so it is not practical for him to put aside his work and devote himself wholeheartedly to the preparation work.

At least for the promotion of "God of Gamblers", he still has to run......

"I need Brother Kai, you to help me go to the mainland to select some suitable actors. At the same time, it is also necessary to contact the external things such as cars, horses, and hotels, including the borrowing of machines, the contact of group performances, and the cooperation of filming in various places...... There is also a cooperation with Western Film Studio. I hope to have an official meeting with director Wu Tianming. Wu Xiaozu himself lacks skills, and he can only let Chen Kaige do some tedious work for him.

Actually, it's more appropriate.

His connections in the mainland are certainly not as familiar as Chen Kaige's. Otherwise, he wouldn't have pulled the Western Film Studio.

When filming in the mainland, you must have this kind of relationship, otherwise it will be difficult to move an inch. Even if he is a great director of Cannes.

The so-called, Hades is good to see little ghosts.

This kind of thing is also called Jianghu!

"As for Miss Gong...... You can think about the script carefully. It will take two months at the earliest for this drama to officially start filming. Before that, you need to learn some knowledge of Ming history, and you also need to analyze the characters. ”

Wu Xiaozu stood up and admonished, "Physique, lines, martial arts, and horseback riding all need to be trained, I hope you can persevere." ”

"I will. ”

The palace emperor nodded, and couldn't help but say, "Can I ask Director Wu for advice at any time?"

"Of course, always welcome. ”

Director Wu has a completely abyssive temperament.

At the same time, the audition invitation for "Longmen Ke" was also sent to a man who had just failed at the box office through the Yindu Agency, and when the other party received the call, he was sticking his head out of the bed with his senior sister.

When Li Lianjie heard the words on the phone, the whole person was stunned......

There was only one thought in his mind: Director Wu invited him to act!!

That's right.

Wu Xiaozu's nominal actor in "Longmen Keli" is looking for Li Lianjie, who directed and acted at the box office, and he flew into the arms of his senior sister and cried about his death.

There are several reasons for choosing him, but what Wu Xiaozu values most is the possibility of his interests.

He is very well-known in the mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea. Although it has declined slightly in the past two years, he is still one of the most famous martial arts stars.

Even the kung fu film "Shaolin Kid" starring him still holds the box office record for kung fu films on Hong Kong Island.

It's just that at this time, he hasn't really determined his box office influence, and he hasn't really made up his mind to enter the film industry-

That's right.

At this time, Li Lianjie hit the street because of the movie she directed and acted in, and her mind was on 'business', which can be regarded as a typical example of the blossoming of business and sports...... In Pengcheng, he received government support and built him a 50,000-square-meter "Shaolin Village", and the company's name is very atmospheric, called "Chinese Wushu International Development Corporation".

Wang Shi is said to have cast some ......

It's a pity that in the domestic environment, it is too difficult for him to make money.

The reason why "Chinese Heroes" was filmed was to make money for the company...... It's a pity that it backfired, and now it's a jingle bell!

Fortunately, the senior sister will not give up.

suddenly received an invitation from Wu Xiaozu to the movie, and Boss Li was in a trance......

"It can't be a liar, right?" Senior Sister burst with cold water, and Boss Li instantly calmed down.

No way, there are too many scammers during this time!!

Someone also approached him and said that he wanted to invest him and Liu Xiqing to co-produce a movie "Hong Kong Island Makes People in Pengcheng".

And then...... He ran over for some reason, spent five hundred yuan, and came back with a certificate.

"This is a call from someone from Yindu in Pengcheng...... Probably not, right?" Boss Li stiffened with a carp, "No, I'll call an international call and ask again-"

Fortunately, Boss Li was in good health and did not enter the sage time after finishing his work. Otherwise, you may regret missing this opportunity!/8_8288/
