Among the crowd, Lu Deshuang is the youngest, and his friendship with Anita Mui is also the shallower, after the first to stand up to support Zhang Guorong, in the subsequent discussion, Lu Deshuang silently acted as a listener, compared to the understanding of Anita Mui, he is definitely not as deep as the people in front of him who have been friends with Anita Mui for more than ten years, and some things that Lu Deshuang did not expect before were brought up by everyone.

It was also at this time that Lu Deshuang realized how ridiculous his previous ideas were.

They all say that do not do to others what you do not want to do to others, even if Lu Deshuang waved the banner that I am for your good, but in the end it was still wishful thinking, without considering Anita Mui's feelings, or even considering Anita Mui's current state, what is needed is quiet, even if you want to persuade Anita Mui to accept treatment, you have to wait for a while.

Therefore, just as Lu Deshuang came in a hurry, after meeting Anita Mui the next day, he left in a hurry.

The first thing he did when he returned to the mainland, Lu Deshuang apologized to Ang Lee, who let him release Ang Lee's pigeon because of Anita Mui's matter, but fortunately, the news of Anita Mui's hospitalization had been exposed, otherwise, Lu Deshuang really couldn't find a reason to explain to Ang Lee.

"It's okay, I can understand!"

Ang Lee is not angry, when he encounters such a thing, if it were him, he would immediately leave everything behind, plus he also spent this day thinking about the outline of "Brokeback Mountain", after all, suddenly adding a Chinese actor, then the original script outline must be revised.

For this reason, he specially found a movie, that is, "Farewell My Concubine"!

Many people who haven't watched "Farewell My Concubine" have a misunderstanding about this movie, thinking that it is a gay movie.

Yes, it is not denied that there is a depiction of this in the movie, but in fact, this movie is not a gay movie.

Why?

First of all, as the director of "Farewell My Concubine", Cheng Kaige has such a sentence: The original book is a book that is not on the stage!

Of course, this is absolutely true, Li Bihua's talent is beyond doubt! Why did Cheng Kaige make such remarks? Just don't like the author or the original? No, those who have watched the original book and the movie know that there are some discrepancies and adaptations between the original book and the film. The original book expresses the theme of infatuation and betrayal, but the movie is more than that!

Cheng Kaige as experienced Wen. I think the reason why he put so much effort into this movie is not only because he knows that it is a good story, but also because he has a good understanding of it. Leather's special feelings!

And the original expression of "Farewell My Concubine" is even more of a feeling, Dieyi's infatuation with Xiaolou, Xiaolou's betrayal!

The film "Farewell My Concubine" is different!

We know that a truly great work will not only be about love and hate, but more importantly, about human nature and the times (just like Dream of Red Mansions). What the film really wants to express is the helplessness and irony of that era in the depths!

Whether it's the upheaval in the early stage or the smell later. Leather!

This embodies the theme of this film - the tragedy of the times!

After watching this movie, Ang Lee couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, and he suddenly felt that Zhang Guorong was almost a copy of the actor Ennis Delmar in "Brokeback Mountain", which can be said to be a kind of luck and a misfortune for Ang Lee to invite Zhang Guorong to play "Brokeback Mountain", because he didn't know who to find to play the role of Jack Trist.

Don't look at "Brokeback Mountain" has two male protagonists, but if you really want to be more serious, there is actually only one male protagonist, that is, Ennis Delmar.

This can be seen from the list of nominations for the Academy Awards in previous years, where actor Heath Ledger, who played Ennis Delmar, was nominated for Best Actor, but actor Jake Gyllenhaal, who played Jack Trist, was only nominated for Best Supporting Actor.

Someone wants to say, what's the headache about this, just find the actor Jack Gyllenhaal who played Jack Trist in his previous life to play it, after all, he was able to win the San Diego Film Critics Association Award - Actor of the Year with his excellent acting skills.

Many people may not know about the San Diego Film Critics Association Awards, but it is seen as a bellwether for the Oscars, and you know its influence.

Living up to expectations, Jake Gyllenhaal also successfully won the Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor, but he lost to George Clooney, who had a wonderful performance in "Cinrena", and passed the trophy for Best Supporting Actor, but it is enough to prove that Jake Gyllenhaal is excellent.

Yes, that's true, according to the normal situation, Ang Lee doesn't have to worry, he can directly find Jake Gyllenhaal to play.

However, many friends may forget that Lu Deshuang's goal of opening a brokerage company was a well-known American brokerage company, Innovative Artist Agency, referred to as CAA.

Founded in 1975, CAA is far from the oldest performing arts agency in the United States, especially nearly 80 years after the historic William Morris Agency. But in today's Hollywood, CAA is a well-deserved king, and it took only 30 years to complete the legend that its opponents have failed to achieve in a hundred years.

For the information of this company, interested friends can Baidu by themselves, so I won't introduce it much.

If you want to talk about a brokerage revolution initiated by Michael Ovitz, one of the founders of CAA, the "packaged" service, a more visual translation should be bundled sales.

In the past, when a TV station wanted to produce a program, it had to find a host, an actor, a producer, a script writer, etc., in short, it had to deal with a large number of different agents.

When Ovitz himself had no way to find a star, he thought of using a project to find a star: he prepared the script writer, producer, and director to plan an attractive project to attract the star to join.

In this model that everyone has become accustomed to, Michael Ovitz has an amazing discovery: if there is a brokerage company that can prepare all the artists of the show, not only the TV station will have peace of mind, but the agency will also change the passive star chasing in the past to actively do projects.

In this way, the relationship between the agent and the star has changed from the agency "serving" the star to the star acting as a pawn of the agency project. The agent suddenly changed from the star's nanny to the star's player, and from the star's maid to the star's emperor.

As a result, the chess pieces of CAA are no longer one or two stars, but a complete project: from program planning, to writers, screenwriters, producers, to directors and actors, all ready.

While other agencies are still simply chasing stars, Ovitz has already recruited top talent in every position needed for TV shows and movies to the CAA. In this way, when negotiating with a TV station or film company, Ovitz has a legal code to ask the other party: the actors who use CAA must use a full set of personnel such as directors, producers, and playwrights of CAA.

In the face of Ovitz's binding, the other party can't use it, and it has to be used if you don't use it, because in addition to CAA, it is difficult to find projects and lineups of the same level in Hollywood. Not only that, but they also had to pay a high price for Ovitz's bundle, which was previously unimaginable.

In Ovitz's hands, the cost of a movie for many excellent actors in CAA has risen from $1 million to $5 million, and from $5 million to $10 million, or even more, which is also an astronomical amount that top actors did not dare to think of before.

When Ovitz used these two tricks, a large number of Hollywood stars began to switch to CAA. From 1985 to 1989 alone, CAA signed a few hundred more actors, and the company bundled more than 150 movies and nearly one-third of the American market for television hits.

In the face of the aggressive CAA, the movie giants were shocked, because the cost of film production was raised by the CAA by several percent, but they had no choice.

In 1990, the 44-year-old Ovitz was named "Hollywood's most influential person" and won this award for three consecutive years, a record that has not been broken to this day.

Ovitz's brilliance lies not only in his extraordinary charisma, extraordinary negotiation skills, and huge influence in Hollywood, but also in his extraordinary management and management skills.

That's right, it is estimated that some people have already thought that Lu Deshuang's entertainment company also adopts this model, as the so-called fertilizer water does not flow into outsiders' fields.

It's a pity that Ang Lee has turned over the roster of actors given to him by Lu Deshuang, and he still can't find an actor who can play against Zhang Guorong.

ps: On the issue of Anita Mui, let me think about it again! (To be continued.) )
