Jia Zhangke's question was to the point, if Zhou Bai didn't know his own ability, I am afraid he would feel very excited, after all, how good it sounds to be self-written, self-directed and self-acting, one person occupies the three important positions of screenwriter, director, and starring in the movie, showing his ability, but he knows that he does not have this ability now, so he has never thought of doing this.

In fact, there is no shortage of excellent filmmakers who write, direct and act or direct and act in history, after all, acting and directing is not a rare thing in the film industry, many excellent filmmakers are directors and actors and even participate in screenwriting, including many master filmmakers, such as Chaplin, Woody Allen, Orson Welles Roberto Bernini, Kevin Costner, Clint Eastwood, these people are versatile, blooming dazzling talents in the history of film.

Of course, there are also filmmakers in China who like and do a good job of self-writing, directing and acting, or self-directing and acting, such as Jiang Wen, Zhou Xingfu, Cheng Long, and there will be more in the future, such as Xu Jinglei, Xu Zheng, Wu Jin, Chen Jianbing, Chen Sicheng, etc., well, you can also add a Jay Chou.

The actor himself is famous, and at the same time he is the director of the movie, which is a rare thing, and if the movie is like a rainbow, with a strong brand of the times and deep reflection and self-reflection, it is a spectacle in the film industry, but not everyone can do it perfectly, at least Zhou Bai feels that he is not capable enough to be fully competent for all the work now.

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Zhou Bai immediately said: "Without this idea, self-editing is completed, but it is difficult to direct and act by yourself, now I have found it, the entire mainland film industry can be so comprehensive, probably only Jiang Wen is the only one, I can't compare." It's right that I wrote the book.,But I didn't think about taking everything I could to myself.,That's very tiring, not to mention.,Too many positions will involve a lot of my energy.,It's hard to make a good movie.,Maybe it's a bad movie when the time comes.。 ”

Jia Zhangke looked at Zhou Bai, shook his head regretfully and said: "I think you are quite suitable for self-directing and self-acting, the book was written by you, you know best how to shoot this story, didn't you write and act "Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss", "First Love Fifty Times", "Painless Love" before? Now it's actually good to further self-direct, I have confidence in you, sometimes I always feel that you are too calm, and you have to spend time digging little by little to know how much you have ability. ”

After getting along for so many years, Jia Zhangke has a deep understanding of Zhou Bai, and he also wants to know what Zhou Bai won't do, don't look at him as a nominal director, but look at the book he took out, which one is worse? Although some people may not appreciate it in terms of artistic style, but professionally, these are very good scripts.

Let's not talk about being an actor, the best young actor in China is not blown, and now he is basically put into the top group of actors in China for comparison, and there are basically no actors of the same age behind him.

"You think too highly of me, that's what I do, and now I really don't have the idea of writing, directing, and acting. Besides, this consumes too much energy, if you want to play a good role, you have to be well prepared, and I need to calm down and figure out the role, and I will tell you honestly, now I have a headache, the right director is not easy to find, do you have anything to recommend? I know you are not interested in this style of film, but I trust your judgment, you recommend me personally. Zhou Bai shook his head and said.

"If you have this plan, there is no way, anyway, I believe you can do it, it depends on whether you have this idea or not. Jia Zhangke didn't say that if Zhou Bai wasn't interested, it would be impossible.

"Let's find a director, I think you can find it slowly, and it's not this year to start filming, and besides, you have worked with a lot of directors before, so they have no intention of continuing to cooperate?" Jia Zhangke asked strangely.

"I asked, either the work is full, or I plan to take a break and stop taking the show, and the main consideration is the style of the movie, they are quite different from what I imagined, so I don't have a goal. Zhou Bai said helplessly.

Huo Jianqi is not available for the next two years, Er Dongsheng plans to take a whole year off after filming "Can't Forget", Guan Jingpeng has no mind to take on new dramas for the time being, Wu Ziniu's style is not suitable, and people are resting at home now, even if they come out, they plan to shoot TV series to have fun, Cheng Xiaodong has just cooperated, and he will already take over another drama next year, the time may not be adjusted, Zhou Bai can't find Lao Mouzi to shoot, right?

"Besides, now that the leading actors have been decided, you said that the three main protagonists have been decided, and I think it's a little disrespectful to look for them, after all, no one is willing to accept the role choice. Zhou Bai sighed and said.

When looking for these directors, Zhou Bai didn't say that the roles were decided, nor did he show them the script, he just asked about his next plans and whether he had time to cooperate, these people couldn't reach cooperation for various reasons, and Zhou Bai didn't know whether to feel regretful or relieved.

China is still basically dominated by directors now, it can be said that the director is the soul of a movie, often a crew is all controlled by the director, of course, this is a big director, but Zhou Bai has cooperated, none of them is small.

Now that Zhou Bai's script is written, not to mention, at least the choice of the three protagonists is gone, and it is really difficult for Zhou Bai to talk about this condition to the directors he has worked with, just like filming "Fast Pursuit", except for Zhou Bai, everyone else decided with Cheng Xiaodong.

"That's why I said that you should just be the director yourself, the three protagonists have been decided, and the roles that the director can choose are nothing more than supporting roles and tricks, in case you are not satisfied, do you change the role when people say it?" Jia Zhangke said angrily.

"There's really no way to change this, the reason why there is this script is to promote this cooperation, and it makes no sense to change people. Zhou Bai shook his head and said, without even thinking.

Zhou Bai will not agree to the replacement of the three leading actors, it was originally a script written specifically for cooperation, if Chen Kun or Zhou Gongzi are replaced, Zhou Bai would rather put the script on the shelf than change someone to shoot it, after all, this is an agreement with Zhou Gongzi and Chen Kun, and it is not an agreement to change people.

"Your condition is quite painful, it's not harsh to say harsh, after all, both domestic and Hollywood have this model, we also know in China, don't look at the director has the final say, but it is difficult to pull investment, and the male and female protagonists are also booked to catch a lot of them, many movies may not be the director to do the master, which is actually not so difficult to accept. After clinking glasses, Lao Jia said.

"I'll help you pay attention to the director's affairs, if there is a suitable person, I will bring someone to you when the time comes. ”()
