Chapter VII Invitation
After the Spring Festival Gala, Xiao Shen Yang ranked first in Baidu search.
Time is also fate!
Xiao Shen Yang has been popular for three years.
Even Zhang Yimou used him as the leading actor and starred in "Three Guns Shooting Surprise".
"Three Guns" is definitely a shame for Lao Mouzi's career.
Even Zhang Yimou, a die-hard fan like Xu Hui, has to suspect that the reason why Zhang Yimou filmed "Three Guns" was just to make money.
The whole movie is not up to par!
However, it sold nearly 260 million at the box office.
In addition to Lao Mouzi's own influence, Xiao Shen Yang definitely accounts for a large reason.
That's not all, Zhu Yanping's "Laughing Jianghu", whether it is the plot or special effects, the reputation is painful, but it still got a box office score of close to 200 million, and the actor is still Xiao Shen Yang...
However, these have little to do with Xu Hui.
It is impossible for his movies to find Xiao Shen Yang as the protagonist.
Looking at the 'squash man' on the small screen, Xu Hui sighed for a while, and then turned off the TV.
……
It can only be said that with the reference picture, the footage taken by Xu Hui will not be particularly redundant.
It's not that difficult to edit.
Even so, they were busy for almost half a month, and finally on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Hui and the others finally completed the editing of the movie.
The rest of the post-production content, including dubbing, synthesis, sound effects, etc., doesn't require him to be on the spot.
Xiao Yang, the director of the later stage, also came back from the holiday, and he was solely responsible for the rest of the work.
Of course, for the final stage of dubbing, he still needs to come back.
Packing his luggage, Xu Hui prepared to go home.
After contacting his parents, Xu Hui received a text message, which was sent by Zhang Ziyi.
"Director Xu, are you in BJ, do you have time for us to get together?"
Xu Hui was a little surprised, he and Zhang Ziyi had no special intersection before, except for last year's charity dinner, the two met and exchanged contact information with each other.
He just saw it as a normal interaction between an actor and a director.
As we all know, Zhang Ziyi is a very good actor, and Xu Hui is also a good director, and it is normal for actors and directors to exchange contact information.
The communication between the two was limited to the most ordinary greetings, and even the New Year's greeting text messages were sent in bulk.
Xu Hui never thought that he would have anything to do with Ms. Zhang Ziyi, after all, he is an international chapter, Xu Hui is just a well-known director, and he is more of an idol.
Although there is no obvious division in the Chinese-speaking circle, to a certain extent, the film industry has the highest status.
What's more, International Zhang is having a hot fight with her European and American big hanging boyfriend, and there is no reason for this...
MMP, I'm thinking too much, maybe it's something else!
A few months after the charity dinner, Zhang Ziyi would send a few text messages from time to time to ask Xu Hui's work schedule or something, perhaps, looking for him to act in a movie?
Could it be "The Grandmaster"?
If it is really "The Grandmaster", why didn't Lao Wang call?
Forget it, it's better to refuse in person.
"Sister Ziyi, Happy New Year, I'm on the plane at three o'clock in the afternoon, and I'm free before that. ”
"At noon, xx private dishes. ”
……
followed the waiter to Zhang Ziyi's box, pushed open the door, and was surprised that there were only two people.
The other one was obviously not Zhang Ziyi's assistant, and the two sat very close to each other, exchanging something.
"Xu Hui, you are here, let me introduce, this is director Jin Yimeng, Yimeng, this is director Xu Hui. ”
Zhang Ziyi introduced.
"Director Jin, I have admired the name for a long time, hello, I am Xu Hui. ”
Xu Hui hurriedly stretched out his hand, and the latter also stretched out his hand with a happy face.
Fortunately, they are all knowledgeable, knowing what Xu Hui said, if Zhang Ziyi really asked, 'Do you know Director Jin', Xu Hui would really not be able to answer.
Of course, this 'long-admiring', Xu Hui doesn't mean to be polite, he knows this director Jin Yimeng.
In the film industry, Jin Yimeng is actually quite famous, his name is very cute, but unfortunately his appearance is a bit of a rubbing shoulder with Meng, a typical round face, but compared to Zhao Liying, Jin Yimeng is much larger in size.
However, the director, looks don't matter.
Not every director is Yu Feihong.
Jin Yimeng is very famous because Jin Yimeng is the first female director in China to break 100 million at the box office.
The work is "Very Perfect", and the producer and heroine is Zhang Ziyi.
After that, he cooperated with Fan Bingbing in "One Night Surprise" and "Mr. High Heels", but unfortunately, he was never able to create the box office miracle of "Very Perfect", and the actors he cooperated with changed from Zhang Ziyi and Fan Bingbing to Fan Bingbing, and in "Mr. High Heels", he could only cooperate with third-rate actors such as Du Jiao and Xue Kaiqi.
Typical drive high and go low...
Xu Hui studied all the movies that exploded at the box office in China, and of course "Very Perfect" did not let go.
In addition to the first cooperation between Zhang Ziyi and Fan Bingbing and the propaganda war, more importantly, this is the first chick movie in China.
At the beginning, Xu Hui especially admired Zhang Ziyi's foresight, and actually knew that the heroine who played the chick movie whitewashed her image.
It's a pity that the strength of the script of "Very Perfect" is limited, Zhang Ziyi is cute and stupid, and she always gives people a special and awkward feeling, and then the representative of domestic chick movies becomes Bai Lily.
Now, the director and producer of "Very Perfect" came to see Xu Hui at the same time, and it was obvious that they wanted to find him to star.
"Come, Xu Hui, you sit down first and order whatever you want to eat. ”
Zhang Ziyi is quite enthusiastic, not at all like the media portrays.
Xu Hui remained silent, anyway, he had already made up his mind, no matter what Zhang Ziyi said, he would not appear in such a movie.
In itself, the quality of "Very Perfect" is not outstanding, although it is not a bad movie, but it is not as good as wonderful;
Secondly, the actor in this movie is a vase, and few people remember it at all, even if Xu Hui acts, it has no effect.
Another point, he doesn't really want to get mixed up with Zhang Ziyi, think about Teacher Sa...
In short, starring in "Very Perfect" is completely inconsistent with Xu Hui's positioning for himself.
"Embroidered Spring Knife" and "The Sound of the Wind", take a look at the works he starred in, although they are not the protagonists, but the quality of the movie is there.
"You didn't come home for the New Year, did you?"
"Well, the movie is a little late, staring at the editing. ”
"I knew I should have let you come to my house for the New Year!"
Zhang Ziyi said with a little regret, Xu Hui was almost choked by this sentence...
I'll go, are we so acquainted?
“…”
Xu Hui couldn't pick up what he said, but fortunately there was a Jin Yimeng sitting next to him: "Director Xu, do you have any shooting plans recently?"
"Not yet, the film has just ended, so I have to wait until the screening before I can decide on the style of the next film. ”
Xu Hui replied while drinking the soup.
Jin Yimeng glanced at Zhang Ziyi, who bowed slightly, and she asked, "Then do you have a schedule recently?"
"Well, I've been staring at the late stages of 'Those Years' lately. ”
“… Anaphase. ”
As a director, Jin Yimeng certainly understands the role of post-production of a film for a movie.
"Xu Hui, let me say it directly, Director Jin writes a script, I want to cooperate with you!"
Zhang Ziyi didn't beat around the bush anymore and asked directly.
