Chapter 228: The Meaning Behind "Memoirs of a Geisha".

For what Zhang Ziyi will appear at the premiere of "No Thieves in the World", Wu Xiang has already figured it out, very simple, Zhang Yimou's new film "Ambush on All Sides" has been released in July, and now it is mid-August, Zhang Ziyi has no work at all, and after "No Thieves in the World", another domestic blockbuster "Hero" will be released in the United States in September, which means that Zhang Ziyi is now appearing in the United States and appearing in "No Thieves in the World" At the premiere of , it was really normal, not to mention that both films were released by Miramax.

But, come and come, what else do you eat?

Obviously, Zhang Ziyi has something to say, and Wu Xiang can't pretend to be stupid, he knows it, besides, he is now an international star, let you have a meal, are you embarrassed to refuse?

The current Zhang Ziyi is still the goddess of goddesses, and the international chapter is still some distance from her.

After the premiere, there was a small celebratory reception, but Wu Xiang just followed everyone to drink a few glasses and then left with an excuse, his excuse was that the jet lag had not been reversed, and he drank too much and went back to the hotel to sleep, but in fact, he immediately called a taxi and went to Chinatown in Los Angeles, where there was a goddess waiting for him.

"Do you know how to eat?"

In a Cantonese restaurant, Zhang Ziyi looked at Wu Xiang, who was gobbling up, and couldn't help but smile like a flower.

Faced with such ridicule, Wu Xiang had no choice but to put down the shrimp dumplings in his hand first, and said with a smile: "Hungry." ”

Affordable, what an affordability kid.

"Giggle......" Zhang Ziyi was amused, "You invite me to dinner." As a result, you just eat it yourself?"

"Didn't you let you eat it?" Wu Xiang felt that he was so wronged, but since people said so, he should take the initiative. Give people cloth vegetables, "Come on, this shrimp dumpling, you like to eat it, this one is good, and the ingredients are very sufficient." In addition, this steamed pork ribs with soy sauce is good. It's crispy, it's crispy, come on......"

Really welcoming. But Zhang Ziyi didn't buy it at all, and with a snap, the chopsticks fell on the table.

"Just go around in circles with me!"

People are not happy, and they probably see their purpose. Wu Xiang can't hide anymore.

"Me. I'm here, okay, we're out, what do you want to tell me?"

Faced with Wu Xiang's attitude, Zhang Ziyi had a suspicion in his heart.

"Do you have a girlfriend?"

"No!" Wu Xiang denied it at the time, he couldn't say anything about it.

"......" Zhang Ziyi carefully looked at Wu Xiang's facial expression, and then said, "Even if you don't have it." ”

"We're going to talk about it, with a girlfriend or something. It's okay, right?" Wu Xiang let out a sigh of relief, it seems that he has been filming all these years. This acting kung fu has also grown.

"Actually, I just want to hear your opinion this time. Zhang Ziyi finally began to get to the point, "After filming "Ambush on All Sides" and filming "2046", I took on a new play, called "Memoirs of a Geisha", I just want to ask you what you think of this play?"

As soon as he heard the name of this movie, Wu Xiang understood at that time why Zhang Ziyi had to eat with him, and the controversy of this movie was very big, very big.

"Director Zhang is against it. Wu Xiang didn't say his opinion, he asked first.

"How do you know Lu Dao?" Zhang Ziyi was tantamount to admitting.

Actually, this movie is really a little sensitive, Zhang Ziyi herself is not very sure that she must act in this play, but her previous roles in Hollywood movies are really boring, she herself knows that those roles are simply garbage, and this time "Memoirs of a Geisha" is really a good opportunity, the heroine does not say, there is a high topicality, but Zhang Ziyi's heart is bottomless......

"It's simple. Wu Xiang smiled and said, "If he supports you, can you still come to me?"

"Hehe......" Zhang Ziyi smiled, "You are smart, but do you say that this movie really can't be made?"

"You ask my opinion?" Wu Xiang was a little embarrassed.

"Of course. ”

It seems that Wu Xiang had to say, Wu Xiang had no choice but to say: "This movie, can't we make it?"

"What are you doing? Just because of the word geisha, geisha are not maids!" Zhang Ziyi expressed his anger very directly!

In fact, Wu Xiang wanted to say in his heart, 'Your understanding is really wrong, the geisha is a little devil who learned from us, in fact, it is a maid, but the previous maids did not sell themselves at the beginning, such as the most famous Su Xiaoxiao, because of this Su Xiaoxiao, the West Lake has become a famous spot through the ages. It should be said that the meaning of the word maid has changed.

But this cannot be said, because if it were to be said, it would become an academic debate. If you have an academic debate with an actress from an art academy about the evolution of historical vocabulary, then the result is completely certain, and it will inevitably break up.

Therefore, Wu Xiang thought about it a little and said: "The controversy of this movie is not about prostitutes......"

Before Wu Xiang finished speaking, Zhang Ziyi immediately interrupted: "You haven't filmed it, how do you know it?"

Obviously, the anger in Zhang Ziyi's heart was not a star, but Wu Xiang still said patiently: "Personally, from the current news from all aspects, I understand that Aunt Gong Li should have come in this movie now, right?"

"Giggles, call someone Auntie!" Unexpectedly, Wu Xiang said this, which made Zhang Ziyi smile.

"I'm a fellow countryman with her, and I'm calling my aunt affectionate. Wu Xiang followed the others and enlivened the atmosphere of this conversation again.

"Haha......" Zhang Ziyi's laughter is very low.

"I'll give you an analysis of this movie. Wu Xiang saw that the atmosphere was very good, so he continued: "With you, Aunt Gong Li, and Yang Ziqiong, these are all our Chinese actresses, this casting matter, it is understandable, there are no outstanding actresses in the island country, they really don't have talent in this area." The cute ones are going to be idols, and the uncute ones with bodies are dedicated to art, hey~"

"Seriously!" Zhang Ziyi fully understood the meaning of Wu Xiang's words. She swore that there really wasn't a man who had ever talked about that kind of film in front of her, not even if it was so subtle. But Zhang Ziyi also swore that she really wanted to laugh.

"Okay. Wu Xiang responded, "This film, in my opinion, completely contains the control of Asian ideology by US imperialism and the fingering of Asian affairs!"

"What?!" Zhang Ziyi was about to explode at that time. "What kind of mess is this? What kind of US imperialism, what kind of control, is it related to this movie?"

"it. Wu Xiang's attitude was very peaceful. "Don't worry, listen to me slowly. ”

"Say!" is just one word, but obviously, if you Wu Xiang doesn't say it clearly. The old lady will never let you go.

Wu Xiang ate shrimp dumplings. pondered for a while, and then said: "It's very simple, look at the actors, the heroines are all Chinese, and a few of the male protagonists are island actors, but obviously, this movie is mainly about women, and your role is the focus." And then the director. The producer, in every way, is Hollywood. Let's take a look at this person's arrangement. It is an economic situation in the Pacific Rim today. ”

"Huh?" Zhang Ziyi really listened at this time.

"The island countries have been cooperating with the US imperialists in the past, this is true, right? We are now starting to cooperate with the US imperialists, this is not wrong, right? And then there is Southeast Asia, which represents Yang Ziqiong, and they are actually cooperating with the US imperialists, and this is not wrong, right? But who is the most powerful? From the past to the present, the island countries are the most powerful, this is right. However, if we expand and look at the future, I can assert that we must surpass the island nations, and in terms of economy, we will definitely be more important than the little devils. ”

Wu Xiang's words, absolutely no one said to Zhang Ziyi, but she can understand it now, it's just ......

"I also believe that we will surpass the island nation, but I am afraid that will be decades, right?"

It's normal, at this age, no one would think that we can crush the little devils financially in less than ten years.

"It doesn't take that long, and it probably will happen soon. ”

"How do you know Lu Dao?" Zhang Ziyi just couldn't accept Wu Xiang's self-confidence.

Lao Tzu is reborn, of course he knows the Tao!

But this can't be said, what Wu Xiang said is, "I'm more optimistic, in this way, let's make a hypothesis about this condition, then let me ask you, we are about to catch up with the little devil, can the little devil be happy?"

"Not happy. The answer is simple.

"Yes, unhappy, inevitably. But you have to know that the little devil is now the second in the world and the boss in Asia, this is a fact, but they are still a dog of the US imperialists......"

"......" Zhang Ziyi's expression seemed to be repeated, I couldn't understand it.

"To put it simply, it's a rebalancing to Asia. Through this movie, the US imperialists want to tell others that I have the final say about Asia. On the island side, you can't do it now, so give up your seat. If we are strong now, then we will go up, but everything must be up to us Americans, or we Americans will have the final say. That's what this movie is about, don't you say it's ideological control?"

Wu Xiang said these things, only the perspective of a reborn can be seen, otherwise it is impossible for anyone to interpret this movie in this way, of course, this is also a 'crooked interpretation', but this 'distorted interpretation' is actually very revealing, that is, for what, our domestic filmmakers and fans are very disgusted with this movie, and in the end, "Memoirs of a Geisha" was not released in our country.

In other words, in fact, everyone vaguely felt this meaning, the meaning that the US imperialists wanted to convey.

"I don't believe it!" In the face of such a 'crooked interpretation', Zhang Ziyi directly gave his opinion, "I came to the United States, I didn't see the consciousness control you said, but I felt that the atmosphere in the country was restricted everywhere, what you said made me feel this even more, you were brainwashed, although I don't want to say this." And let me remind you, wasn't that "Kill Bill" not released in China not long ago? This is a film given to you by Miramax!"

"This film, the reason why it was banned is not here, she is too bloody. However, to give similar examples, I can give them. Have you read the book "The Ugly Chinese"? But do you know how the book is promoted in the United States?"

"How?"

"It's banned, it's officially banned by the mainland, and there is no book on the mainland. However, if the two of us go to the airport and fly back to the capital now, I can buy this book in a bookstore casually!"

"No, aren't they banned?

"No, it was banned at first, but then it was able to be published. That is, we have changed the way we think about this piece of literature. But do you know what to say? The US imperialists are just making a big report on how our country is blocking cultural consciousness, but now that he is in a state of flux, he is silent, and you can look up news in this area, but there is no relevant report at all. They talk hard about our closure, but they never mention our progress, which is actually a kind of mind control!"

"How is that possible?!"

Zhang Ziyi didn't believe it, didn't believe it at all.

"If I can prove now that Lao Mei has been playing this hand, then what should you do?" Actually, Wu Xiang didn't say too deeply, because there is not only such a book about us, but also "Ugly Americans", "Ugly Japanese" It's just that the guy who wrote about the ugliness of the Japanese was more unlucky, and he was directly dismissed.

Besides, this book by Mr. Baodao is actually just right for us to gather around the well and look inside to see how people worship foreign people......

Zhang Ziyi said angrily at this time: "Prove it to me!" (to be continued......)
