Before Zhao Yazi came, she helped Zhang Xuan get a few clothes, and according to his size, she helped him buy a lot of clothes and a bunch of food. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zhang Xuan asked Wei Du to drive to pick up Zhao Yazi.
A car is almost full.
"Wife, I'm not going camping, you have so many things for me? My wife is so nice. After listening to Zhao Yazi's narration, Zhang Xuan said with a smile while nibbling on the hot chicken leg that Zhao Yazi had just bought.
"Hmph, I'm angry with you, and you're still smiling, you have started filming your new drama now?" Zhao Yazifei gave Zhang Xuan a wink, "What kind of scene do you want me to film?" ”
Zhang Xuan took out a script and looked at Zhao Yazi nervously.
When Zhao Yazi saw that the name was "Unfaithful", her pink face immediately turned red, and she glared at Zhang Xuan angrily.
Zhang Xuan naturally understood what Zhao Yazi was angry about?
"Infidelity" is the most delicate and touching part of Adrian Lane's so-called "affair trilogy" ("Fatal Attraction", "Peach Deal" and "Infidelity"). Based on the French New Wave master Chabrol's La Femme Infidele (literally: The Unfaithful Wife), it is a classic of Hitchcockian suspense.
The storyline of this film is roughly the same as the original book, but the two films are completely different from the narrative method to the focus.
The director gave "Infidelity" more new ideas.
Edward Sumner (Richard Gere) and Connie Sumner (Diane Lane) are an enviable model couple, living in middle age in a large, cozy house on the outskirts of New York City with their 8-year-old son, a small dog, and a housekeeper.
Their lives are comfortable and peaceful.
But life can't always go on one track, and their happy married life is facing great challenges.
In Connie's view, no matter how strong happiness is, it is difficult to achieve long-lasting happiness, which is commonly referred to as the "seven-year itch", and Connie is tired of living the same life.
Soon, the passion came.
As if by fate, Connie meets a mysterious and handsome man (Oliver Martinaz) on the street, and the two quickly fall in love just like a couple from a previous life.
However, behind the passion there must be a hidden crisis, and Connie has to lie to her husband Edward for this lustful indulgence, and at the same time put herself in unknowable danger.
When Edward, who was kept in the dark, learned that his wife had lied to him, he went crazy to know all the details of his wife's unfaithfulness to him.
And the more he knew, the deeper the pain, Edward couldn't find a balance in the face of his love for Connie, and he erupted in anger that even he couldn't imagine.
"There are so many themes, why do you have to shoot this kind of theme?" Zhao Yazi asked puzzled.
Zhang Xuan has actually thought about this problem, there are four reasons, the first is the quality of the work! In the past twenty or thirty years, there has not been a single drama film about a woman's cheating that can surpass "Infidelity", the heroine's drama is too strong! Whether it is the plot or the details, they are so exquisite that they cannot be added.
Second, Zhang Xuan himself likes this drama very much, the seven-year itch, this is a human problem, you can't avoid it, do you feel tired of marriage, don't be responsible, regardless of the children, you have to go out for a vigorous love? Is this love? This is a very profound issue, no matter what country, no matter what society, even if it is a polygamous society, this issue is worth discussing.
Third, because of the cost, he can't always be on big-scene action movies, big-scene plus stars, it must be the guarantee of the box office, everyone knows that the key is that he doesn't have such huge financial resources as Golden Harvest.
Fourth, his current acting skills, the supporting role that can barely control it, is the handsome guy who cheated on the heroine, simply filling a man's mind with circles and forks, infinite desire for married women, and a keen energy performance.
Zhang Xuan needs to increase his fans, so the movies he invests in must be stained by himself! He's not exactly thinking from the perspective of being a boss!
Other dramas, romance films, life films, naturally there are still a lot of high-quality films, such as "My Sassy Girlfriend", a big killer, in this era can adapt to the soil and water, this is a question, the key is to find a girl with Jun Ji-hyun's acting skills, where to find this?
Jun Ji-hyun is probably still in elementary school, right?
"My Sassy Girlfriend" and "Huanzhu Gege" are all dramas that are hard to find and need time to find.
Wen Yunren's appearance, figure, and personality are all suitable for his savage girlfriend and Little Swallow, but Wen Yunren is studying in the capital, and he can't save the fire from far water.
Combining these four elements, therefore, "Disloyalty" is Zhang Xuan's best choice at present, and he also wants to try to make a movie by becoming a director independently and without inviting other chefs to help.
As for Zhang Xuan's fourth movie, he is still thinking about it.
Time is really too tight.
"There is no problem with this theme, I have thought about it carefully, not only will it not have an impact on your image, but it can even help you get rid of a negative image from now on, because at the end of the film, the heroine deeply repents, regrets, longs to return to the family, and longs to care for the children with her husband! With this play, your image in the minds of the audience will be more complete and plump. Zhang Xuan explained to Zhao Yazi, "Don't be in a hurry to say no, think about it for a night, and tell me tomorrow." ”
Zhao Yazi nodded and said, "Then I'll look at the script again and think about it again, Ah Xuan, I'm a little scared and don't dare to face such a subject." And, do you think there will be a market? ”
"There must be a market, and the key is the quality of the film. With the three words Zhao Yazi, coupled with the topic of derailment, coupled with excellent quality, I believe that this drama is the first Hong Kong movie to rush to the world! After this play, you will not be the number one beauty in Asia, you will become the number one beauty in the world. Your acting skills need this drama to be sublimated and recognized by the world. Zhang Xuan said solemnly.
He is now discussing with Zhao Yazi as a film company owner and boyfriend.
"Rushing to the world? Do you still want to distribute overseas? Zhao Yazi leaned against Zhang Xuan's side, "Are you so sure?" I'm not afraid of my own personal honor and disgrace, anyway, I've been in so much negative press, I'm worried about affecting your grades. Golden Harvest is too strong, the average box office of each of your four dramas must be at least 20 million or more, so that it is possible to compete with Golden Harvest, and each drama is very important. ”
Zhang Xuan patted Zhao Yazi's little hand, "Thank you for helping me, I have confidence!" I have just asked Wang Pangjing, it is not difficult to distribute overseas, if possible, these four films, I will seek opportunities for overseas distribution. ”
The friend introduced by Wang Pangjing to Zhang Xuan is called Jiang Zhiqiang, a native of Nanhai, Foshan, who is the president of Anle Film Co., Ltd., and the producer and overseas distributor of Li Yi'an and Zhang Yimou.
"Time" magazine named Jiang Zhiqiang as an "Asian hero", Jiang Zhiqiang is a low-key person, he single-handedly created a blockbuster era of Chinese films, knows the eight major Hollywood film companies well, and is the first Chinese in overseas distribution.
His father was a film distributor, he stepped into the film industry at the age of 13, and then went to Denmark with his father, Jiang Zhiqiang was named "Asia's Best Producer" and was named "Asian Hero" by Time magazine, he has become a winning military advisor in the eyes of Chinese and even Asian filmmakers, although his resourcefulness has long been recognized, but more importantly, his accurate grasp of the film industry and market trajectory has lived up to the reputation of the Asian Wall Street Journal as "one of Asia's most influential independent publishers and Asia's most successful producer"!
Jiang Zhiqiang is a low-key person, he single-handedly created the blockbuster era of Chinese films, knows the eight major Hollywood film companies well, and overseas distribution is the first among Chinese.
In terms of film distribution, he is good at strengthening the star lineup and making high-cost investments.
In 1999, he was a great success for the release of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and won four awards at the 73rd Academy Awards in 2001 for Best Foreign Language Film, Best Music, Best Cinematography, and Best Art.
Zhang Xuan didn't have many scenes in "The True Color of Heroes", and the action scenes were the last, so it was still very relaxed, and at ten o'clock in the evening, he dragged Wang Panjing to visit Jiang Zhiqiang together.
The process is very smooth, the matter of money, Jiang Zhiqiang has always been enthusiastic about promoting Chinese films to Hollywood, and promised to wait for Zhang Xuan's movie to be released, depending on the situation, as long as the quality is excellent, it will not be a problem.
"Ah Xuan, I really convinced you, making four films a month, are you still in the mood to think about overseas distribution? You're an iron man, you don't have to sleep all day long, do you? Wang Panjing rubbed his eyes, chubby hands, chubby face, he was already sleepy.
Zhang Xuan's eyes were also a little bloodshot, and he said with a smile: "No matter how busy you are, you rarely hear about people who are tired to death!" These things have to be considered sooner or later, so why not prepare sooner? ”
Wang Panjing smiled bitterly, "I'm more than ten years older than you, but I listen to you every day, alas, let me tell you, the scene of "The True Color of Heroes" is really good, and today's filming went well." ”
Zhang Xuan smiled, "It's good if it goes well!" The key is speed, not only quality, but also speed, time is money! ”
Zhang Xuan is right, the Chinese entertainment company has just started filming "The True Color of Heroes", and "Mr. Zombie" is still in preparation.
The next day, Golden Harvest already had a movie released!
They are a big company, and this movie, which was included in the list of four films, was shot last month, and it happened to be this month to catch up with the schedule!
It's called - "Wishing you prosperity"!
