Lao Jia's phone call was generally quite timely, interrupting a pair of men and women who were stealing forbidden fruits. Afterwards, Wang Dalun thought about it and was thrilling enough, there were no measures, what if an arrow hit? After all, the girl was still young, and the abortion was very hurtful.

The girl didn't stay long and left, maybe she was afraid that the two of them wouldn't be able to control it again, maybe some parts were wet and uncomfortable, and she wanted to take a bath, anyway, when it was time for dinner, he had already taken a shower and changed clothes when he saw the girl again.

Likewise, he felt slimy himself, so he took another shower, changed his underwear, and washed his changed clothes.

……

It may be a plain reaction, or it may be a desire to be dissatisfied, anyway, on this night, although Wang Dalun was very tired, he just couldn't sleep, tossed for most of the night, and didn't fall asleep until the second half of the night.

When I woke up, it was already more than nine o'clock in the morning, and Fan Ziyi didn't call him because he was worried about his fatigue on the journey, so he followed the crew to film and television city early in the morning.

Fortunately, the film studio is not too far from the county seat, just on the edge of the city, a car, more than half an hour's drive, to the terminal 80,000 people stadium, a few steps away.

There is a newly developed community opposite the Shanghai Film Studio, with a façade house on the street, most of which are restaurants, which is a bit of a food street. Wang Dalun found a Jiahui restaurant, called Lao Jia, first ordered two cold dishes, asked for a bottle of beer, and waited while drinking.

Lao Jia was very grinding, and after waiting for almost half an hour, he saw a thin figure come out of the door of the Shanghai Film Studio, look at the cars on both sides, trot across the road, and after a while, he pushed the door in, and looked around to find someone.

"Here!" Wang Dalun hurriedly waved his hand.

"Why is it so long?"

"There was a symposium, the secretary and director of the Shanghai Film Studio were present, and they were going to have dinner together, but I said that I had made an appointment with a friend, and the symposium had just ended. ”

Lao Jia has a good complexion and looks beaming. Originally, Wang Dalun thought that he wanted to find a studio to cooperate, but he didn't expect that Shanghai Film Studio took the initiative to find him, wanting to seek cooperation opportunities with this cutting-edge director who shined at the Berlin Film Festival at the beginning of the year.

Without saying a few words, Lao Jia took out a card from his bag and put it on the table and pushed it in front of Wang Dalun. Wang Dalun knew that now was the time to share the fruits of victory, and thought that not only did he not even talk about the salary, but also posted 10,000 yuan.

He smiled and asked, "How much?"

Lao Jia was a little embarrassed to draw a six-character comparison.

"So much, I'm not worth the price!" Wang Dalun couldn't help but speak, he didn't expect Lao Jia to be so generous.

"Not much at all. Lao Jia shook his head and said, "Originally, I wanted to count your 10,000 yuan as an investment, but the Hong Kong investor didn't agree. If it weren't for your performance, I wouldn't have won the award. ”

Wang Dalun doesn't have the luxury of investing anything, there is no contract in the first place, and his expected salary is only twenty or thirty thousand at most, and fifty thousand yuan has greatly exceeded expectations, so what is not satisfied.

He didn't say anything polite to Lao Jia, put away the card, and hurriedly toasted Boss Jia a cup to show his gratitude.

While drinking, I listened to Lao Jia talk about the preparations for "Platform". It turned out that after the Berlin Film Festival, "Xiao Wu" received rave reviews in Europe, and Western authoritative media called Lao Jia the light of hope for Asian films, and Michel Fodon, a famous film critic of the French "Le Monde", said, "Until yesterday, Jia Zhangke was not known, but he is definitely a great film director." ”

In addition, he has won the top awards at the French Three Continents Film Festival and the Vancouver International Film Festival one after another, so many foreign producers have the intention of investing in his next film.

Lao Jia is no longer the old Jia who has been everywhere before, and it seems that he has been promoted to an international famous director overnight, and he chose T-MARK from many producers, because the owner of this company is the famous Japanese director Takeshi Kitano, and the producer Shozo Ichikawa has supervised three Hou Hsiao-hsien films, including "Sea Flower". He believes that this combination will allow him to secure investment while maintaining his creative independence.

And because he won the top prize at the French Three Continents Film Festival, and the script also won an award at the Busan Film Festival, like Zhang Yuan, the French Ministry of Culture and Foreign Affairs recently informed him that he received a grant of 700,000 francs from the French National Film Center. This is not any return, it is completely funded money, which is equivalent to picking up more than 800,000 yuan in vain.

However, although "Xiao Wu" continues to win awards, it cannot be performed in China. Wang Dalun could see that Lao Jia had always been worried about this. Because he wants his film to be seen by Chinese audiences, after all, the film is shot in this land, and it is filming these people. No director wants his film to be shown on a small scale academically when it is distributed in China. Therefore, before launching "Platform", he urgently hoped that "Platform" could get the approval of the Film Bureau and be seen by more audiences.

The first step in obtaining permission to shoot is to cooperate with domestic studios, because they are the only ones who have the national quota for film production. Fortunately, Beijing Film Studio and Shanghai Film Studio were very interested in him, and they both offered to cooperate with him.

After comparison, Lao Jia still thinks that Shanghai Film Studio is a good choice. Because the magic capital is a fast-growing economic society, and Shanghai Film Studio seems to be more supportive of young people's creations. Over the past year or so, the graduates of the 93rd class of the Film Academy and Lao Jia have all completed their debut films.

Before coming, Lao Jia had already sent the script to Shanghai Film Studio in advance, and the factory unanimously agreed that this was a good book, not to mention that the script had also won international awards, and there was foreign investment, which was a complete win-win situation for both parties, so the first day of the symposium was very pleasant. Speaking of this topic, Lao Jia had an irrepressible smile on his face, and it was finally dawn for him.

"Da Lun, you are the most perfect male number one in my mind, you are Cui Mingming. The salary has doubled!" In the end, Lao Jia stretched out his five fingers quite domineeringly and flipped over.

Wang Dalun didn't read the script, and listened to Lao Jia's simple description, this is a story spanning ten years, although it is a story about a literary troupe, two pairs of men and women, but he feels that this is Lao Jia's own memories of adolescence. also heard Lao Jia's ambition - he wanted to make an epic of ordinary people and wanted to tell about the changes of that era.

Wang Dalun was unconsciously infected by Lao Jia's affection, and felt that Lao Jia was particularly thoughtful and profound, instead of the sullen and hypocritical that he used to slander. Of course, what he is looking forward to more is Lao Jia's generous salary of 100,000 yuan.

He couldn't wait to ask, "When will filming start?"

Lao Jia pondered: "The script still needs to be revised and then submitted for review." I was planning to start the film in the fall just in time, but now it seems that the time is a bit tight, and it may have to be delayed until winter. ”

……

Lao Jia is very busy, and the success of "Xiao Wu", although the domestic media is silent, does not mean that industry insiders have issued invitations to Lao Jia, whether they are pretending to be forced or really appreciating.

He had already been in contact with the 101 film critics organization here before coming to the magic capital, and there was a screening of "Xiao Wu" in the afternoon, when Director Jia would give a speech.

After eating, Lao Jia still wanted to take Wang Dalun with him. Wang Dalun was scared to death, he didn't dare to go to such a tall party, so he hurriedly refused, not to mention that he had planned to go to Zhao Wei's visit class by the way.

I contacted Zhao Wei last night, "Cousin Auspicious" has now been renamed "Old House Youxi" The crew is filming in a place called Meihua Estate these days, not far from Shanghai Film Studio, Wang Dalun took a car, a starting fee, less than ten minutes by car.

This is an old bungalow area, which is the old house in the play. Because there is a crew filming inside, the door guards are very strict, and idlers are not allowed to enter. Wang Dalun could only call Zhao Wei again, Zhao Wei was filming, and the call was answered by her agent. Her agent, Wang Dalun met twice and knew her, and after a while, she was seen running out in a hurry to pick up people.

Zhao Wei's agent knew that Wang Dalun and Zhao Wei had a good relationship, and they were very enthusiastic when they met. Zhao Wei was shooting the interior of the house at this time, and Wang Dalun was temporarily sitting outside and chatting with her agent.

is similar to "Huanzhu Gege", this "Old House is Happy" is also a co-production between Qiongyao Company and mainland TV stations, but the former cooperates with Mango Channel, and the latter cooperates with Tomato Channel in Modu.

In other words, although Qiong Yao's TV series is bloody, the twenty-five episodes of the TV series are planned to be filmed for four months, and the time is still quite tight, Zhao Wei and Su Youpeng are even so busy that they have to drive a night train, compared to the bad dramas that Fan Ziyi filmed in a month or two months, it is obviously much more sincere, at least people have requirements for actors, and the drama is carefully polished.

It didn't take much time to see Zhao Wei come out of the old building, Wang Dalun couldn't help but laugh when he saw her, with short unkempt hair, basically no makeup, wearing a sky blue T-shirt on his upper body, a pair of light gray pants on his lower body, and a pair of old-fashioned sandals.

However, although the image is very earthy, and she also plays a working girl in the play, there are constantly staff members who greet her along the way, and Sister Wei and Sister Wei keep shouting, which seems to indicate that this working girl must be like Cinderella in the end, and the salted fish will turn over.

"Sister Wei!" Wang Dalun got up and greeted with a smile.

"Brother Da Lun, you laugh at me. Zhao glanced at him slightly, pouting coquettishly. As he spoke, he looked at him again, and like Fan Ziyi, he complained, "Why are you so dark?"

"No way, it's drying on the plateau. ”

Zhao Wei took a closer look at his face, nodded and said, "Well, it's good that the skin hasn't peeled." By the way, when did you get to the magic capital?"

"Arrived yesterday at noon. ”

"Let's go to Ziyi's side first, right? Hmph, heavy color and light friend!"

Wang Dalun could only smile awkwardly, speaking of which, in addition to Liu Ling, Zhao Wei was his second friend after coming to this world, and the relationship between everyone was so good.

"I really didn't expect that you would end up with Ziyi. ”

Zhao Wei looked at him, his eyes were a little fluttering, he was very happy when he used to get along with him and Liu Ling, and he didn't have any thoughts about him, but he didn't know why when he heard that he actually came together with Fan Ziyi, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sour feeling in his heart.
