95. Attack the heart
Throughout the afternoon and until the evening, She Bing was in an extremely anxious state, and he didn't sign the contract that Manager Yuan gave him, so he only said that he would think about it.
It's not just to stall for time, he does need time to think about it.
After signing it, he can get more money, but it is contrary to his original intention of filming this scene.
It's been a long time, it's been too long since I met the right script and the right time to make a movie that he wants to make.
My family knows about my family's affairs, and outsiders look at them and these famous directors to gain fame and fortune, but in fact, with the rise of commercial films in recent years, their appeal has been declining. More and more investors want movies that can make money, but the money-making effect gathered by directors is getting weaker and weaker, and no matter how big the films made by famous directors are, they may encounter box office waterloo, because they themselves are just walking on the edge of the market, and it is no longer them who lead the market but consumers with money in their pockets. Heavy and uninteresting historical films are getting more and more cold reception, because of the long investment cycle and the high risk at the box office, which also leads directors like him who are used to making historical films if they are not willing to find well-known actors to cooperate, then they can only hold their own archway.
In front of money, fame, qualifications, awards...... It's all.
If no one invests in you, you won't have a movie, and if you don't have a director, you will be forgotten.
But if you don't sign a new contract...... He is leaving the crew, leaving this crew that is with him everywhere except for the starring role.
Chi Chi ......
Cistern...... Late......
That's why he hates these famous actors, they are so disobedient, they are self-righteous when they have a little fame, and they never put the work itself first.
"What does she know, what do they know? They know that they are protected as a work of art, and they are not willing to have the slightest effort or sacrifice. ”
What's more, they have money, and they can earn it...... Once art leaves the material and spiritual space that is barren, difficult, painful, and can tear the soul, it is like a fish leaving the water, and slowly loses its vitality.
They don't understand this truth, they just want to satisfy their own selfish and shallow personal needs, and packaging themselves as commodities will only make them farther and farther away!
This kind of behavior is simply shameful.
She Bing walked around the room, the cigarette in his mouth had burned to the end of the cigarette holder, and the ash fell to the floor scattered with his steps.
In such a smoke, She Bing thought of another girl who was very similar to Chi Chi, the same beautiful and temperamental, the same smart and quiet, hard-working, motivated, and ambitious......
That girl's name is Lian Chuchu.
When Lian Chu first came to audition, she was only a sophomore in a dance school, and among so many actresses, She Bing took a fancy to her at a glance to play her Chen Yuanyuan.
But she was too proud, and the girl's high-spiritedness and confidence from her bones made She Bing feel very uncomfortable.
So She Bing made a very interesting attempt, which made him think about it more than ten years later, and he also felt that he was a genius at the beginning.
He arranged two scripts for Lian Chuchu, one script belongs to Lian Chuchu, the actor, and the other script belongs to Lian Chuchu's life.
Constantly adjusting, constantly seducing, and constantly instigating others to put pressure on her, gradually turning the girl who was full of beautiful hopes for the world at the beginning into a realistic version of "Chen Yuanyuan" - she is greedy for a luxurious life but is unwilling to accept her own depravity, she wants to get ahead but feels powerless, men like her and pursue her, only to make her feel the pride of pain.
Such Lian Chuchu naturally devoted herself to the role of Chen Yuanyuan, and she soon discovered the spiritual fit between herself and Chen Yuanyuan, thinking that this was the commonality between her and Chen Yuanyuan, a peerless beauty, and even thought that she was the reincarnation of Chen Yuanyuan for a while......
Chen Yuanyuan's role was successful, and his movie was also successful.
It's a pity that Lian Chuchu died later, and many things have changed, and since then, he has never met an actor who has aroused his "desire to create" like Lian Chuchu, nor has he met Chen Yuanyuan, a role that can make people amazing.
If Chi Chi wasn't already famous, She Bing sighed in his heart, he would also be very interested in recuperating, without Chen Fengchu's character with a strong modern personality, he would definitely be able to bring out Chi Chi with that kind of style that captivates the country and the city - this huge contrast is his favorite artistic expression.
Taking a deep puff of cigarette and exhaling a circle in his eyes, She Bing casually picked up a sofa and sat down, thinking about the cigarette butt in his mouth.
What if you think about it from a different perspective?
At the beginning, he could make Lian Chuchu intoxicated, but now can he find a way to make Chi Chi also become the state he wants?
It doesn't matter if she spends money to buy personnel construction rights, she can make her understand that there are many things that are much more important than rights.
Thinking so, a little smile gradually appeared on the man's face, and he went into the bathroom and spit out the cigarette butt into the sink, and tidied up his appearance again.
Chi Chi's room was not far from him, and the next floor passed by the door of the four rooms, and it was where the girl lived.
Standing in front of the door, She Bing took a deep breath before starting to knock on the door.
His knock on the door was muffled and dull, sounding in the middle of the night, alarming the voice-activated lights in the corridor.
I don't know why She Bing suddenly felt that he didn't feel very good in his heart.
Before he could figure out where the faint uneasiness was coming from, the door was open.
The tall, lanky girl had apparently just finished her gym workout, her face flushed, and the white towel was still around her neck.
"Director She, it's so late, what's the matter with you?"
"I'm here to talk to you...... About the role of Chen Fengchu. ”
She Bing has a deceptive face, women think his face is full of middle-aged man's charm, and men think he is straightforward and easy to contact, especially when he laughs, such as now.
The night in March was still very cold, and Chi Chi could only let She Bing, who was wearing only a shirt, into her suite.
She Bing watched the girl casually leave the door of the room wide open, secretly annoyed by her precaution and cleverness.
The material conditions arranged by the investor for this crew are very good, Chi Chi and She Bing live in an executive suite, and one wall is almost occupied by imported large TVs.
She Bing noticed that the TV was still on, but someone pressed it to pause.
"Watching TV while working out?"
The man sat on the couch in front of the TV, and the girl didn't answer his question, just poured him a glass of warm water.
"I don't know if you dare to drink tea at such a late hour. ”
Chichi smiled apologetically as he handed the water, and only after the man said it was okay did he remove the towel from his neck and send it back to the bathroom hook.
She Bing didn't drink water, he took the remote control on the coffee table and pressed the play button.
The familiar moving picture appeared in front of his eyes.
On this night when he remembered Lian Chuchu, this girl who reminded him of Lian Chuchu was watching "Late Ming Lamentation".
Chen Yuanyuan, a peerless celebrity who moved Qin Huai, appeared at the family banquet of Tian Guifei's mother's house accompanied by a little gong and drum sound, and Tian Wan, the brother of the concubine, dedicated her to Emperor Chongzhen, but was rejected by the king who was worried about the country and the people.
She is beautiful, everything is beautiful, from the corners of her eyes, to her cheeks, to her thin and lovely waist, to her sultry demeanor, to the beauty of her eyebrows with a light sorrow, so that everyone has been fascinated by her when she appears.
She Bing, who was outside the play, felt another kind of thrilling.
He instinctively disliked such "coincidences".
"I happened to be watching a movie directed by you. ”
The girl's voice came from behind him, and She Bing's hand moved violently, trying to stand up on the sofa, but he was surprised to realize that he had only scared himself.
"Ah...... "Late Ming" is indeed a work that I can quite master. He quickly adjusted his emotions and said humbly with his back to Chi Chi.
To relax himself, he took a deep breath silently.
"You can say that such a wonderful film as "Lamentation of the Late Ming Dynasty" is 'relatively handy', so I don't know how many movies with insufficient sincerity should be thrown into the trash. ”
As he spoke, Chi Chi sat on a single sofa, two or three meters away from She Bing.
"Movies that lack sincerity should have been thrown into the trash. She Bing changed the topic according to Chi Chi's words.
The girl didn't want to get what he wanted.
"I watched this movie to get familiar with your directing style, after all, we will cooperate in the future, the whole movie is really good, the rhythm of the script is good, and the actors' performances are also very good, especially this one who plays Chen Yuanyuan...... Sister, if she's still alive, I should call her Auntie, right?"
She Bing stood up from the sofa suddenly, and in Chen Yuanyuan's eager singing, he looked at the girl in front of him with a fierce look.
"What do you mean to be alive?"
The girl was frightened by him, and curled up in the sofa and looked at him helplessly.
"She, She, what's wrong with you?"
On TV, Chen Yuanyuan was stopped in the corridor of the pond by Tian Wan, who had long been plotting against her.
The red gauze skirt that had just touched people's hearts was pulled hard by the anxious "Uncle Tian Guo"*, and fell lightly into the pool water, the black pool water reflected the red light shadow, and the weak woman who was unable to break free in the trance of the light shadow.
The girl couldn't take care of the director who was out of shape in front of her, and even Chuchu expressed Chen Yuanyuan's grief and helplessness very well, she couldn't take her eyes off this plot, and couldn't help but praise in her mouth: "Red face is thin, red face is thin." ”
Who is she talking about?
Chen Yuanyuan?
Or is it even the beginning of the beginning?
She Bing felt that this girl had words in every word for a while, and for a while felt that her demeanor was innocent and natural without any sense of disobedience, that heart was like hanging in the air on a rainy night, letting the cold wind howl and sweep away, he could only passively shrink away.
No, it's not right tonight.
From the moment he decided to come to Chi Chi, it seemed that he was destined to be amiss.
The girl who made him fidgety was still watching TV, and Chen Yuanyuan on TV was wearing more gorgeous clothes than when he was in Qin Huai, enjoying the real delicacies of the mountains and seas, and his expression changed from the former sorrowful face to a kind of woodenness from the depths of his soul.
Is this what she wants? Going around and around, it is just from the former "stars holding the moon" to the current caged lone bird, and there is no end in sight to the life of Israel's servants.
There are people in the back garden practicing and singing Jinling Minor, and she also sang along slowly, unlike the singing in front of everyone, she doesn't need to go to the smoke wave to flow and fly in her skirt, as long as she sings with this water, with these garden flowers, and with this gust of foreign wind.
Sing only to yourself, without flattery and flattery.
She Bing also watched Chen Yuanyuan on TV, or Lian Chuchu, people said that "Late Ming Lamentation" was his most amazing work, but in fact, his most amazing work was Lian Chuchu.
Because she is her own work, when she is trapped between reality and the movie and can't place her soul, he didn't reach out to pull her hand, and watched her go to ruin.
He certainly did not commit a crime, and no one can say that he is a crime.
But today, a few years later, when he looks at her in this movie again, thinking about her death, he feels his heart fluttering.
“…… A few husbands and wives are in the same tent, and a few are floating outside......"*
The solo on TV suddenly turned into a duet.
She Bing turned his head to look in the direction where another voice was coming from.
The girl didn't know when she had closed her eyes and sang with Chen Yuanyuan on TV, and the two of them looked exactly the same.
Same.
At that moment, the man had the idea of leaving this room, and every qiē here made him feel like a dream.
In his dreams, someone can casually make the same expression and expression as his best work.
His best, dead work.
"You say, what should Chen Yuanyuan be thinking when he saw Wu Sangui?"
The girl suddenly opened her eyes and asked She Bing curiously.
Of course, she is not Lian Chuchu, she will not sing with tears in her eyes like Lian Chuchu, and she can't stop after shouting Cut.
"What should she think, she should think of relief, a tall and mighty general, looking at her with loving eyes, as long as she is a woman, she will be intoxicated by this love, and that will only rise her sorrow to the point of being for the world and not for herself. ”
She Bing didn't even know what he was talking about, he wanted to go, he didn't want to go, a strange feeling enveloped him, as if he was waiting for something here.
"That's not right. Chi Chi shook her head gently, at this moment she was completely different from Lian Chuchu.
"A woman's heart is easily broken, and it won't be good if it is broken, this kind of life should have long ago made her no longer have any illusions about love, what she wants is a place to live, but what about the ending...... Spit on the eternals, and death will not be stable. ”
As he was talking, Lian Chuchu and Wu Sangui on TV had already met.
The general who was about to leave for Shanhaiguan threw down a sentence: "Uncle Guo gave me Yuanyuan, and I will immediately lead the troops to the battle." ”
With a wave of his hand and a roll of his cloak, the delicate woman was embraced into his arms and walked out the door.
"It's a very complicated expression. ”
She Bing listened to Chi Chi's words and looked at her a little sluggishly.
The girl showed a smile that was the same as Chen Yuanyuan's - the curvature of her lips was a little deliberate, her eyes drooped slightly, it looked like surprise, but in fact it was just feigned joy.
"Helplessness, dazedness, and the last glimmer of hope for happiness...... It's a pity that the last hope was shattered, and the so-called 'rushing to the crown and being angry for a red face' was just a cover, but it really ruined her life. ”
The girl sighed, stood up, and refilled the cup in front of She's eyes.
Just now, when She Bing drank water, his hands were shaking, and the water was dripping on his chest and pants, and he didn't realize it.
"Beautiful things should be cared for, and destroying them is creating a tragedy that makes people desperate. ”
Just like Chen Yuanyuan's poignant legend, just like the young and dazzling life that belongs to Lian Chuchu.
The man sitting on the couch felt that he was having trouble breathing.
He's being strangled in a different way.
The work he is most proud of can be easily imitated by the other party.
His most proud control of the movie was revealed to be powerless.
How did this qiē happen?
She Bing is powerless to delve into the reason for this qiē, at this moment he has deep doubts about his own way of directing, the director has to live by imagination, if even the original expression of Chu Chu actually exceeds the upper limit of his imagination, if what this girl says now is true, then what is he doing?
What is it?
……
It's really too late.
Qian Xiaohua, who accidentally watched a movie on a tablet, decided to go to bed after swiping Weibo one last time.
Six eggs a day are about to see the gods: "Absolutely what they are afraid of is to attack their hearts." ”
Hmm? What is this? Has Liudan's number been stolen? Qian Xiaohua refreshed it again, and this Weibo disappeared, and the little girl fell asleep in a daze, and completely forgot about it the next day.
