Chapter 112: A comedy
Chapter 112: A comedy
Yang Xin'er is also an idle person, she is not born to be a housewife. Not only because she doesn't have the skills of a housewife, but also because she doesn't have the plain heart of a housewife. She couldn't bear the loneliness either.
After staying at home for a while, I started to take on some commercial performances. Among them, he participated in the New Year's Eve party of Nanhu TV, which allowed Zhang Le to spend the New Year alone.
There was no way, Nanhu Satellite TV also invited him, but unfortunately he was busy with the post-production of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and pushed it down.
Of course, Huaxia has no concept of the New Year of the Gregorian calendar, except for some merchants to carry out some promotions in the name of this, I am afraid that the most impressive thing is that there is a day off on New Year's Day.
However, the New Year's Day holiday has little meaning for people like Zhang Le. When you want to take a vacation, you can do it at any time, and you don't need to look forward to national holidays.
Zhang Le is indeed very busy, in addition to being busy with the post-production of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", he also has to occasionally promote Tang Xiao's new film "Nightclub".
"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is undoubtedly the highlight of Xinle Film Studio, but "Nightclub" is also a film produced by Xinle Film Studio.
The film is not a big investment, but it is still very much expected. Zhang Le is still looking forward to the box office of this film. It is not impossible for another dark horse to appear.
Although the box office of Tang Xiao's first work "Meet My Father-in-law" did not break 100 million, it still brought a lot of profits to the company. It also attracted a lot of fans. Of course, the biggest attraction of the box office of this drama is not the director Tang Xiao, or even the screenwriter and producer Zhang Le, but the starring Feng Lei.
Feng Lei's role made Zhang Le a little surprised, he actually broke through the image, got a bald hairstyle, and played the middle-aged He Sanshui, who was quite down-and-out and vicissitudes.
The style of "Nightclub" is very different from "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", and there are also a few differences from the original. Feng Lei's role made Zhang Le look at it differently. It's a completely different style, but it's well managed.
Tang Bohu acted exaggeratedly and even a little crazy. However, He Sanshui seems introverted, which is very consistent with the cold humor of the whole film. Feng Lei's acting skills have definitely made great progress.
Of course, Feng Lei's acting skills are growing, and Tang Xiao's directing level is also improving. Among the three, Zhang Le has made the greatest progress.
After the filming of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Zhang Le's progress is completely a qualitative leap. Of course, the effort he put in was unimaginable.
"You've been making this movie long enough." Tang Xiao said to Zhang Le, "What's the matter, the post-production hasn't been completed yet?" ”
"There are still details to be dealt with, and it is estimated that it will take another month or two." Zhang Le said.
"When are you going to release it?" Feng Lei opened his mouth and asked, "When are you going to shoot your "Kung Fu"?" I've been waiting for all the flowers. ”
"Let's release it in the summer!" Zhang Le thought about it and said. He glanced at Feng Lei, and continued, ""Kung Fu" is estimated to be postponed, and the special effects company is still talking. After talking about it, the film will start. ”
"Then how are you going to arrange me? Lay on the shelf? Feng Lei pursed his lips and said.
"It's not like you don't have a film to shoot now! I've heard Sister Wen say that you kid is very picky about playing! Zhang Le glanced at him and said.
"I just don't want to take on some bad movies and ruin my image. With a big star like me waiting to play your play, you can be content! Feng Lei said with a smile.
"What are your plans?" Zhang Le didn't bother to pay attention to Feng Lei, then looked at Tang Xiao and asked.
"It depends on what you do!" Tang Xiao smiled and said, "You are the boss!" ”
"You don't have your own ideas?" Zhang Le glanced at Tang Xiao and said. He naturally knew that this was Tang Xiao's joke, and he wouldn't be angry because of it.
"I have a soft spot for comedy, do you still have a good script?" Tang Xiao suddenly spoke.
"What kind of comedy?" Zhang Le asked.
"It's pure comedy." Tang Xiao said.
"So what kind of comedy is pure in your opinion?" Feng Lei smiled and asked.
"A comedy that can make people laugh at it, then it's pure." Tang Xiao said very simply.
Zhang Le was noncommittal about this statement, but after listening to it, after seeing Tang Xiao and Feng Lei, he remembered a film in his mind.
"I have a story, I just don't know if you're interested?" Zhang Le smiled and said, "The story is not complicated, it is even purely the obscenity of a straight man, the plot is unwise and has no three views at all, but it can make people laugh completely." ”
"Tell me!" Tang Xiao was curious, but Feng Lei was a little impatient.
"The story is about an old man who is supported by his daughter-in-law, pretending to be forced to attend the goddess's wedding, only to be chased by his wife with his face torn apart, and after a dream, he found that even if he becomes famous, he may die miserably, it is better to be content with life, there is a woman who loves you unconditionally, and it will not be too bad to cherish the day." Zhang Le smiled and said, "And the wonderful story is in his dream." ”
"In the dream, he went back to his high school days"
That dream is actually very simple, it is the story of the rebirth of a cow fork in high school. But there are many stalks in that dream, which are hilarious. And in that dream, there are many memories. It's just that the memory was spoofed by Zhang Le. But this spoof makes people can't help but laugh.
Of course, the song stars spoofed in the original version do not exist in this world. But it's so easy to find similar song characters.
"What's this video called?" Tang Xiao asked with some excitement. Apparently, he was intrigued by the film.
"Charlotte's Troubles!" Zhang Le smiled and said.
"I'm going to play Charlotte!" As soon as Zhang Le's words fell, Feng Lei immediately spoke, "I can't go back to my high school days and turn on the cow. forced superstar career, but it's still okay to have an addiction in the film! ”
When "Charlotte's Troubles" was released, it was a three-no film, no big-name stars, no well-known directors, and no publicity and momentum, and it was released directly, but it became a dark horse, and the box office reputation was double-harvested.
Although the three views presented in it have been criticized by countless people, which man doesn't want to be like Charlotte, who has a wife who supports him without complaint or regret? Even if they scolded a man like Charlotte to the fullest.
Zhang Le seemed to despise Xia Luo after waking up from his dream, but Xia Luo's clinging to Ma Dongmei's hug also made countless women yearn for it.
"Nightclub" did not have a lot of investment, and almost all the filming was done in a supermarket. Moreover, Tang Xiao has really pulled a lot of sponsorship, if you don't count Feng Lei's salary, it can almost be said that it is an empty glove white wolf.
However, this film is still expected by many people. A small-budget movie doesn't mean it's not good-looking.
The names of Zhang Le and Feng Lei are still quite attractive. Even if Zhang Le is not the director of this film, he wrote and supervised this film, and there is no doubt that this film has marked his mark.
Although "Meet My Father-in-law" was not a blockbuster at the box office, it was still loved by many fans. Tang Xiao, Feng Lei and Zhang Le's re-cooperation has still attracted a lot of media attention.
Moreover, the relationship between the three has also been exposed by many media, and it is also quite topical.
