Chapter 614: Unfold

The second time Gan Jing and Luc were approached was at the director's home.

Many times, the layout of the home can tell a person's preferences and tastes, but Gan Jing did not expect that he would see a Gothic-style home in Director Luc's house.

Gothic...... Gan Jing really doesn't understand the movie aesthetics in his heart at all.

Of course, sometimes, this is also unreliable, some people's lazy villains can always beat all styles, what European, Chinese, Japanese decoration, can be covered up under the command of lazy villains, especially single men.

"Forrest Gump, Chinese culture is really quite profound, and yesterday a good friend of mine explained to me the thoughts of a philosopher named Zhuangzi in your country. Luc poured tea for Forrest Gump and Andy, who had come tonight.

This is an authentic tea made from Chinese tea leaves, and Luc is very careful in these details, or rather, very polite.

"Zhuangzi?" Gan Jing nodded, "This is one of our ancient sages. He and the ancient Greek Socrates' attitude towards life and death are both interesting. ”

Luc has been fascinated by Chinese culture since he heard his friend say it last night, and at this moment he can't help asking, "What's the interesting method?"

Gan Jing took a sip of tea, thought for a while, and corrected his words: "Maybe it shouldn't be described as interesting, both of them are a little detached from life and death." Not to mention the death of Socrates, Zhuangzi once sang when his wife died, mixed with mang, change and qi, qi changed and formed, deformed and lived, and now changed and died, which is the four seasons of spring, autumn, winter and summer. ”

This passage is already a bit obscure, and Gan Jing is very difficult to translate in English, so he can only try to express the general meaning, and at the same time some meanings have to be summarized in French.

Luc listened attentively, interrupting Forrest Gump's arguments from time to time, asking for sentences he didn't understand.

After such a paragraph, Gan Jing couldn't help but suggest: "Director Luc, you can go to Huaxia for a walk in your spare time, or learn Chinese." ”

Luc nodded solemnly.

Gan Jing was very relieved to see this, this can be regarded as a small contribution he has made to spread Chinese culture.

After a while, Luc took a cup of tea, touched Forrest Gump's teacup as if he was toasting, and asked reverently, "Forrest Gump, may I ask what is the status of the list of gods in your kingdom?"

A list of the gods?

Gan Jing was a little dazed, what is this?

He pondered for a while, Kong, Meng, Lao, Zhuang? Just now Luc mentioned Zhuangzi, could this be a certain Zhuangzi's writing?

Gan Jing felt that he was not doing this professionally after all, so he had to say shyly: "I'm not familiar with this piece, did Zhuangzi write it? ”

"No, my good friend said that this one is famous in your country, and it was not written by Zhuangzi. Luc recalled for a while, not remembering the author's name, so he had to make an impressive description, "It describes a very powerful thing, a whip that beats the gods, like a sword of Damocles." ”

The sword of Damocles?

Gan Jing was stunned, and beat the god whip? Divide the list of the gods? Seal the god list!

Rough!

Didn't you talk about philosophy just now, why did you suddenly turn to mythology, Gan Jing couldn't spit it out with a mouthful of suffocation stuck in his throat, so he could only drink two sips of tea before he smoothed his breath.

"Director Luc, why did your friend tell you this?" Gan Jing couldn't help but laugh, "That's quite popular in our country, well, the setting is quite grand, but if you want to talk about status......"

Gan Jing is not very easy to describe this, what kind of status should it be?

Seeing this, Luc led the topic to the category of film and television practitioners: "For example, the basis of the adaptation and shooting, the expectations of the people, do you think it can be changed into a grand epic film?"

A grand epic movie?

The Lord of the Rings?

Gan Jing was a little shocked, although he was a little ambitious and wanted to use a script in which he was the protagonist to impact the order of Hollywood's commercial films, but he never thought of using Chinese mythology to adapt and create an epic movie.

Is this because his imagination is limited, or is Director Luc's thinking jumping enough?

Before we talked about the business tonight, Gan Jing was a little confused by Director Luc's ingenuity, but fortunately, he didn't come alone, and Andy also sat next to him to watch the exchange between the two.

"It probably takes time for the system of Chinese mythology to be accepted by global audiences, and if a vote of Western actors is used to interpret Eastern mythology, I am afraid that Chinese fans will not recognize it too much. Andy bystander Qing commented, "But it's no problem to absorb nutrients from it, the goal is a bit big at the beginning of the epic, and it's just an entry point for a paragraph." ”

Gan Jing took a sip of water, came back to his senses, and smiled at Lu Ke: "Director, if you have ideas in this regard, I will naturally welcome you, but you need to understand Chinese culture, and the market situation also needs to be investigated, let's talk about our script." ”

Let's keep talking, a little bit of words.

"The script on my side has not yet been finalized, and I believe that the director has more experience than me in terms of story structure. Gan Jing put down the teacup and said sincerely, "In fact, not only because I particularly like "This Killer is Not Too Cold", but also because director Luc is becoming more and more proficient in the grasp of commercial and literary films. ”

Luc gradually got rid of the mellow charm of Huaxia, and his expression was slightly correct: "But I want to cooperate with Scarlett." ”

Gan Jing: "......"

Andy: "......"

After a short strange silence, Gan Jing glanced at Luc, the old man must be in his fifties, why do you still love beauty so much!

"Can you change that script at will?" asked Gan Jing.

The old man was silent.

"Can people have as much money as I do?" Gan Jing said without shame, and added, "My Uber shares are enough to shoot several films!"

The old man touched his chin.

"Do people have the Huaxia market as a backing?" Gan Jing said proudly, "I have." ”

The old man frowned and pondered.

"The most important point...... Gan Jing is serious, sincere, lively and cute, "Do they have an Oscar? Will they invite the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor? Who do you want to use, I don't want to invite you with an old face." ”

The old man's eyes lit up, and it was good not to fight his own face.

"I'll think about it seriously. Luc said formally, but still undecided.

"Director, you have to believe in my love for acting, I will do my best to perform this play. Gan Jing said.

"Well, I didn't doubt that. ”
