568【Fangfang】
Los Angeles International Airport.
All the crew members of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" who were about to board the plane, after spending a few days in the Sonoran Desert, their skin was tanned as a whole.
Zhong Chuhong looked in the small mirror from time to time, obviously afraid that his complexion would not recover, and complained to himself: "Sunscreen is useless." ”
"Don't worry, it will turn white again in a few days." Kang Jianfei twisted Zhong Meiren's face affectionately.
"It's not good to be seen!" Zhong Chuhong slapped Kang Jianfei's hand away, she is a very generous woman, but she can't let go of this kind of thing.
After filming the scene of the American desert, the crew will be divided into two, Ang Lee led the team and Zhong Chuhong to Singapore for filming, and Kang Jianfei went to Paris for filming. Finally, I came back to Hong Kong to make up some shots, and the whole movie could be completed.
Three days later, on the Champs-Élysées in Paris.
This famous international fashion avenue is very different from Kang Jianfei's impression. The scenery is very beautiful, but a lot of ancient buildings have been damaged a lot, and it is not a traffic jam, and visitors can only watch the beautiful scenery in the sound of the whistle.
The most speechless thing is that the picturesque walking paths on both sides of Houshi Avenue are completely chaotic roadside "parking lots" at this time, and there are all kinds of vehicles parked at random everywhere, and pedestrians have to walk around from time to time if they want to enjoy the scenery.
There have been calls in France to protect the Champs-Élysées, but after decades of shouting, a committee was finally set up a few years ago, but this committee has just begun to follow up on the damage to the Champs-Élysées, and it will take years for the real restoration and protection.
After the rush hour at work, the crew chose a place with a little less vehicles on the Champs-Élysées and officially started filming.
Kang Jianfei was dressed casually, wearing a pair of sunglasses and leading a dog, strolling under the elm trees of the avenue.
The blower blew a "breeze" that blew up the elm trees that the crew had sprinkled on the ground. A man and a dog walked in the breeze, and the bright sunlight sprinkled through the gap in the canopy, forming a poetic halo on Kang Jianfei's body.
It's just a cool walk. Kang Jianfei walked back and forth for more than half an hour, and repeated filming many times before he was satisfied.
The next one was filmed in the Champs-Elysées round square, where Kang Jianfei led his dog for a walk to the periphery of the square. His hand was holding a dog leash in his trouser pocket, and the puppy was peeing on a large tree, just like a normal passerby.
Suddenly, a car drove to the circular square and stopped, and a handsome European mixed-race guy got out of the car. The handsome mixed-race man came to a female painter in the square with a suitcase and said, "Paint me a portrait." ”
"Yes." The French painter asked, "Did you bring the goods?" ”
"It's all here." The mixed-race dude pushes the box over.
The female painter also pushed the painting box at her feet, and the handsome mixed-race guy opened the box and saw that it was full of green dollars, and immediately closed the box and got up to leave.
As soon as the handsome mixed-race guy turned around, he saw Kang Jianfei walking over with a smile on his back.
The mixed-race handsome guy subconsciously nodded and smiled at Kang Jianfei. The moment the two staggered by, Kang Jianfei took out a silenced pistol and put it at the other party's heart.
The painting box slipped from the hand of the handsome mixed-race guy, Kang Jianfei caught it and continued to move forward, and when the other tourists found that the handsome mixed-race guy had pounced on the ground, Kang Jianfei had already walked out of the square and slipped away in the car that answered.
"Click!" Wu Ruiqing, who temporarily served Kang Jianfei as the executive director, shouted that the crew's filming task in France was successfully completed.
"Cousin. I'm okay. Wu Ruiqing excitedly pulled Kang Jianfei and asked, in fact, it was the director of photography Zhong Zhi who was really in charge, and Wu Ruiqing just experienced being a director.
"Yes, keep up the good work." Kang Jianfei patted his cousin on the shoulder and encouraged.
Several scenes filmed in France and Singapore were not in the original film, and the reason why Kang Jianfei added it was to make the movie more reasonable.
Because in the final script, the hero and heroine belong to two international killer companies. It is not possible to stay in Hong Kong every day. After all, Hong Kong is too small to have so many targets to kill. And these assassination scenes add up to less than 4 minutes, which will not destroy the overall structure of the film, and interspersing the plot will make the story more fleshed out.
In addition to this, the film's action scenes have also completely overturned the redesign. After all, the film is mainly aimed at the Asian market, and Asian audiences prefer fights with kung fu elements, and the punch and kick scenes of American action movies are not pleasing.
Of course, kung fu dramas are not too outrageous. The kung fu of the hero and heroine is more inclined to modern fighting, and they can't jump three feet high by jumping off the wall.
"Hey Kang, is the shoot over?" The "female painter" in the square came over and asked.
"It's over. I'm flying back to Hong Kong tomorrow," Kang asked, "Do you have time to have dinner together?" ”
"Of course, we're old friends." The female painter laughed.
The guest appearance of the female painter is none other than Sophie, who is 20 years old for more than half a year? Marceau, she's a lot more mature than she was a few years ago.
It can be said that Kang Jianfei invited Sophie three years ago? Marceau's filming changed the trajectory of her entire life. In another plane, Sophie? Marceau met an old man during the rebellious period, and then raised 1 million francs to redeem himself, and ran to shoot some so-called art films with a lot of passion scenes, and ruined his image as a beautiful girl.
If it weren't for the fact that she later took over a "Fang Fang" and became famous again, Sophie? Marceau may only be a second-rate actress who shoots passion scenes for the rest of her life, and the old Polish man who is more than 20 years older than her is the culprit.
When Sophie Marceau was 20 years old, the Polish director was already nearly 50 years old, and Sophie? Marceau is not very good, and the older he gets, the more he likes to lose his temper. Sophie? Marceau was almost a daughter, a wife, and a mother, and had been taking care of this old man for 17 years before breaking up, and a woman's best time was all delayed.
Three years ago an old Polish man invited Sophie? When Marceau made "art films", Sophie? Marceau is on the crew of "Deadly Express" in Italy, and next is the historical drama "The Fortress of Sacana".
Thanks to Sophie? Marceau was filming Kang Jianfei's scene in Italy at the time, and the invitation letter from the Polish director could only be sent to Sophie? Marceau's company, ready to put Sophie? Naturally, the company that Marceau cultivated into a generation of jade girls would not agree to the invitation of the old Polish hooligan, and directly refused on the grounds that there was no schedule.
Sophie? Marceau didn't know that the Polish director had also found another actress to play the heroine, and the two never crossed paths since.
Sophie? Marceau hates the rules and regulations set by her company, what is not allowed to have a boyfriend, and she is not allowed to shoot nude/explicit scenes. It is not allowed to wear revealing clothes on important occasions, etc., which is simply to frame her in a cage.
But without the help of that old Polish man, Sophie? Marceau couldn't afford to pay the liquidated damages of 1 million francs, and she never borrowed from Kang Jianfei and Lin Qingxia, anyway, she has been working hard to make money and preparing to leave the company in the past few years, and she plays the same obedient female role.
In a restaurant in Paris.
Sophie? Marceau stuffed snail meat into his mouth and said, "Kang." Your English has improved a lot. ”
"It's okay to hear it, but it's still a little awkward to say." Kang Jianfei looking for Sophie? Marceau's cameo appearance in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", mainly to watch Sophie? Marceau's box office appeal in France. Since there is no Polish old man, Sophie? In recent years, Marceau has become the goddess of the hearts of thousands of men in France, and her cameo can add some French audiences to "Mr. and Mrs. Smith".
"That's right. Is your contract with the company not expired? Kang Jianfei asked.
"Half a year is left to expire, and I can finally get out of that evil castle." Sophie? Marceau said excitedly.
Kang Jianfei asked, "Then what are your plans next?" ”
Sophie? Marceau said: "There is a Hollywood agency that wants me to go to the United States to develop, but I have no interest, American movies are full of copper smell, and there is no artistic connotation at all. ”
Kang Jianfei laughed in his heart, when you are short of money to spend in a few years, you will even accept those meat slices sold under the guise of art. Don't say anything about commercial films with no connotation.
Sophie? Marceau continued: "French cinema has been influenced by Hollywood, and in recent years it has become more and more commercial, and I am going to go to Italy, where the directors are still sticking to art. ”
"What I see with my own eyes is ugly, but what I can't see is the most beautiful," Kang Jianfei said, chewing on foie gras, "Italy is similar to France, in fact, the whole world is the same." Most ordinary people are not interested in so-called art films. ”
"What about you?" Sophie? Marceau asked.
Kang Jianfei said with a smile: "I am first and foremost the owner of a film company, a businessman, and I am responsible for the employees under me. So I can only make commercial films, but I will support some art directors, and my company will make at least two art films a year. ”
Sophie? Marceau said with emotion: "You are a very enlightened boss, if my boss could be like you, I would not be thinking about leaving the company all day." They're just a bunch of villains. Even if I have a boyfriend, he will threaten me with a contract at every turn, and say that it is for my own good and to maintain my star image. ”
"Are you sure you want to make a different movie?" Kang Jianfei asked.
"Of course." Sophie? Marceau complained, "From the time I was 14 years old to the present, I have played so many roles in comings and goings, either innocent schoolgirls or kind aristocratic ladies, and I want to vomit when I see the camera now." ”
"Then why don't I invest in a movie for you?" Kang Jianfei said.
"What kind of movie?" Sophie? Marceau asked.
Kang Jianfei smiled: "It must be different from what you filmed before." Let me roughly describe the plot: Alec, a man who is about to get married, meets Fangfang, a dancer who is lively and open, and advocates individuality, and falls hopelessly in love.
He has always lived in Zhishui, and he has never tasted the turbulent waves of love. And Alec, who grew up in the shadow of his mother's constant change of ** objects in his childhood, stubbornly believes that sexual love will not last long, and everything is over, so he made a decision that he wants to pursue Fangfang forever, but never involve **......"
Kang Jianfei carefully recalled and narrated the plot of "Fang Fang", and some details were a little wrong due to memory errors, but he still listened to Sophie? Marceau was relishing, and it was clear that she was very much looking forward to Fangfang's role. RI
