Chapter 283: Three Visits to the Thatched House (It's Difficult to Add a Name to a Thief)
What kind of stories does Gan Jing like?
He loves beautiful stories that bring smiles to people's faces โ life is already hard, so why not smile more?
Some people say that commercial films are just enjoyable, and they will soon forget the content after leaving the theater.
But in those two hours, at least the audience was laughing, what's wrong with two hours of ease?
Pity...... Gan Jing's "The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko" earned a lot of tears, Gan Jing's "Beautiful Mistake" once played himself in a bad mental state, and Gan Jing's debut work "Mei Lanfang" is also an art film.
From the very beginning, he seems to have been involved in literary and artistic works, and the commercialization is only "2012", "Crazy and Stupid Love", "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", is there anything else?
The latter has not even been released yet, and Longmen is even more filming.
As for the rest, is Farewell My Concubine an art artist, and is Peking Opera singing an art art?
It can be said that Gan Jing has formed an indissoluble bond with the word art, and his status and coffee position at this time cannot get rid of its gift.
In fact, if you want to talk about art, it may not be all niche, but generally speaking, it is difficult for directors to perfectly combine art and the market, resulting in many themes becoming more and more niche, the more they are filmed, the more people watch, the more they are filmed, the more they are twisted, and the more they are filmed, the more art films are made for the sake of art films.
After Gan treated Ang Lee extremely politely and went out of his room, he still didn't feel sleepy, he knew what kind of stories he liked, and he knew what movies he liked to watch.
But as an actor, playing different roles is a professional quality.
What's more, sometimes it's actually quite enjoyable to think about.
Gan Jing looked at the ceiling, and couldn't help but think in his mind about the original book he read all night last night, Ang Lee said that he was confident that he would make a good film and television work that was difficult for others to film and television, and this would not be a lie.
But how will he shoot it?
How do you get the audience to sit quietly in the theater for two hours?
How do you connect the two stories? How should the shots in the second story be filmed? Two diametrically opposed stories would be a mess in one film, right?
Thinking of this, Gan Jing was a little gloating.
However, he then unconsciously thought about the role placement of the protagonist.
Ang Lee thinks that the newcomer in India can interpret the first story, and even using this newcomer alone is enough for the film to hit the Oscars, but his own participation makes him uncertain.
Tsk, a character who has such a complicated experience at sea should be deep and crazy, and the innocence in front of him will soon be peeled off little by little by the cruelty of the sea and drowned in the sea.
That should be the right performance, right?
Gan Jing thought about it for a while, and was a little uncertain, he was used to reading the script many times before starting his speculation about the role, and now he only had a cursory reading of the full text, so he was not too confident.
Getting up from the bed, Gan Jing took the original English book and flipped through itโcompared to his own spoken language, the original book was still a little difficult to read, which is one of the reasons why he only had a cursory look at the full text.
Generally speaking, the description of the original book is more detailed than the script, and the psychological activities are much more, which is more helpful to grasp the characteristics of the characters.
But relying on the original work to infer the intentions of the director and actors can sometimes be distorted, and being faithful to the original book does not mean that it will be put on the screen word for word.
That's the grasp of degree.
There was a knock on the door again.
Gan Jing's thoughts were interrupted, and he was a little impatient to let the dog open the door again, but he had a little sneer in his heart, and now the director has turned around and persevered?
The dog goes, the door opens, and the man enters.
"Forrest Gump!"
It was a familiar voice in his ears, and Gan Jing looked up in amazement, it was his agent Lao Chen.
"Why are you here?"
"I'll let you take the appointment!"
"How did you start screwing!"
Every sentence Lao Chen said at the door had its own exclamation point, and every exclamation point was thrown on Forrest Gump's face through his own tone.
"How do you know?" Gan Jing rejected Li An in the room just now, how could Lao Chen not come from the capital so quickly.
"Ang Lee called me last night and told me that he intends to use you as the protagonist of the new film, but you may not agree! I got up early to come over! I met Ang Lee at the door of the hotel just now! You really don't agree! Where did he provoke you! You two have no enmity!"
Lao Chen cried blood, he had never seen such an actor, and he actually pushed the film out, and this was directed by Ang Lee.
"No, it's a disgusting story, and I don't really want to take it. Gan Jing explained helplessly.
Lao Chen casually threw his luggage to the side of the chair, glanced at it, pointed to the half-turned English original on the bed with his right hand, and said: "You don't want to take it, then why are you reading this book?"
Gan Jing patted the side of the bed indignantly and said, "Dog, you can bite him!"
The dog really got up, and his mouth was full of water, and he wanted to bite.
"Hey, hey, I'm your brother Chen, dog, do you know me? I've fed you!" Chen Huihong was startled by the dog's barking and ducked back.
"Brother Chen, look at your beauty. Uncle Chen is about the same. Gan Jing got up and went to the bathroom to wash his face, sober up.
Lao Chen followed behind like a fart: "Forrest Gump, we don't have a deep hatred with others, if you want to say that they are international directors, my Forrest Gump is also an international actor, isn't it just a beauty to join forces." โ
"Well, you're beautiful, you're beautiful. Gan Jing wiped his face dry and said the truth, "I just can't see his faint expression, as if everything is under his control." โ
"But you're not here, I'm not very conflicted when I meet you. โ
Ang Li's voice suddenly appeared in the room, and Gan Jing turned his head - the voice came from Lao Chen's pocket.
Chen Huihong took out his mobile phone from his pocket in a daze, and it was in the state of calling, and he also turned on the voice.
Gan Jing was strangely angry, "In ancient times, you were a traitor who betrayed the lord, and on the battlefield you were fighting your teammates' black guns!
Ang Lee's voice continued to output from the agent's mobile phone: "Forrest Gump, don't blame him, it's my idea." Open the door for me. โ
Gan Jing snorted twice, ignored it, turned around and walked to the clothes to prepare to change clothes.
Chen Huihong smiled and opened the door.
Li An entered the door, walked to a position three or five steps away from Gan Jing, and said sincerely: "I'm also looking at the thatched house." Forrest Gump, think about it, a director, a starring actor, and two yellow-skinned people hit the Oscars together, how interesting. โ
"I've done this once, but I haven't enjoyed it yet, and I want to do it again!"
Ho, you're still a repeat offender!
Now, Gan Jing finally stopped holding back, stared at Ang Lee, and asked, "Two stories with different cores, how do you deal with the footage of the second story?"
"There is no camera in the second story!" Ang Lee said categorically.
"Well, I'll admit I'm a little curious. Gan Jing frowned.
"Let's be together, then. Ang Lee expressed his thoughts again and again.
This time, Gan Jing finally didn't let him out again, and nodded lightly.
At this point, one blow, then decline, three exhaustion, and the arrogance of Gan Jing has just worn away, and this is just the beginning of "Life of Pi".
