soaring into the sky or being shot to death, such two extremes came out of Xiao Jingyuan's mouth at the same time, which is really a very shocking way of expression.

Without waiting for Song Yan to ask, Xiao Jingyuan couldn't wait to speak.

"Du Yun, you know, right? It's that ghost director, he took the initiative to find me the day before yesterday and said that he wanted to ask you to make a film. ”

The name Du Yun is indeed not unfamiliar to Song Yan, strictly speaking, it should be said that it is not unfamiliar to all artists.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a ghost, and he does deserve such a high evaluation.

This person's imagination is very rich, and his thinking is always imaginative, and the styles of his works are different, and he has been questioned about raising a lot of gunmen because of this.

Du Yun was born in a family of performing arts, his grandfather was a behind-the-scenes worker of the older generation of Huaguo, his father was a famous director and screenwriter, and his mother was also a writer.

Five years ago, he made it all the way to the Linde Film Festival with a low-budget film that almost no one heard about beforehand, and was an absolute dark horse and was nominated for both the Best Screenplay and Best Director awards, but in the end, both stopped there.

Since then, Du Yun has almost disappeared from the entertainment industry, just like disappearing out of thin air, some people have rumored that he can't bear the blow and quit the circle, and there are even rumors that he committed suicide......

Hearing that Du Yun was looking for him by name, Song Yan was first flattered and a little puzzled, "Du Yun's strength is obvious to all, it is an honor to be able to participate in his works, how could he be photographed to death on the beach?" ”

Xiao Jingyuan smiled and said a little mysteriously, "You don't know what he's been doing in recent years, he doesn't look like a person." Forget it, I can't tell you just by talking, I'll send you the script, and you can read it yourself before making a decision. ”

It didn't take long for the script to come, Song Yan couldn't put it down after picking it up and flipping it over, the more he watched it, the more fascinated he became, and he actually read it in one go!

What a good script!

This script is the model of a single heroine, who was abandoned by her parents because of a disability in one leg since she was a child, grew up in a garbage heap in a hundred family meals and clothes, and lived like a wild dog. The cruel life experience made her unusually strong, and she dragged such a pair of slightly lame legs to grab food and territory with men who were bigger than herself.

In the midst of this day-to-day suffering, the heroine suddenly met an old man who was about to starve to death, and she gave the other party a crushed bun. thought that the two were just meeting each other, but no one expected that they would die for each other later......

After reading the script, Song Yan finally understood what Xiao Jingyuan said before meant "being photographed dead on the beach".

Because the whole script implements a heavy and desperate tone from beginning to end, the weight that permeates between the lines is heavy on the chest, almost breathless. Although there were several struggles and brief warm colors in the middle, those were only fleeting after all, and even the ending was tragic......

And the most important thing is that it reflects the living conditions of people living at the bottom from beginning to end, which is simply inferior to pigs and dogs, even if it is filmed, it is still unknown whether it can be released in China.

In other words, if Du Yun really insists on filming, then this work is likely to not be broadcast in China at all, and the only way out is to go to the international film festival to win awards!

Don't say how miserable it would be if you couldn't make a splash at the film festival, and even if you win the award, China will take different sanctions against the director, screenwriter and starring in the film......

And according to Du Yun's urine in the past, his works must be carefully carved and eggs in the bones, so once Song Yan takes it, it is very likely that she will not be able to take care of other work in the next year.

You must know that now Song Yan is already one of the top ten artists who can attract the most money in Huaguo.

Is it to honestly follow the path that you are now familiar with? Or do you want to find another way and gamble while you are young?

This decision was too difficult, Song Yan walked around the room with his arms around several times and didn't come up with a clue, and his heart was confused for a while.

"What do you think?" was struggling, Chu Youyuan suddenly appeared in front of her, "I didn't hear you knocking on the door?" ”

Song Yan jumped up directly, scared, "Oh mom, I'm scared to death!" ”

Chu Youyuan was amused for a while, and according to the old custom here, he called her a soul and asked, "Why are you so distracted?" ”

Now that we've decided to be together, it doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with asking each other's opinions.

Song Yan, who didn't know what to do, hurriedly told him the truth of the matter, and asked bitterly, "Do you think I will take it or not?" ”

Chu Youyuan was silent for a moment, then turned back and asked her, "Then do you want to pick it up or not?" ”

"Of course I think about it," Song Yan replied without hesitation, "That's Du Yun, what an honor it is to be handpicked by him Chrysostom, besides, you have also read the script, isn't it very good?" ”

Chu Youyuan nodded, "It's really great, even if you get to Linde, you have a strong chance of winning the award." ”

The script is really well written, every character and scene setting is very penetrating, and with Song Yan's acting skills, Chu Youyuan can almost put this film as an award-winning candidate at the Linde Film Festival now!

"Right?" Hearing him say this, Song Yan suddenly felt a wave of like-minded joy, but then sighed again, "But just like Brother Xiao said, the risk is too great, if I really take it, it will not only take a year, but almost equivalent to using the second half of my acting career to make a bet!" I'm really scared. ”

Chu Youyuan raised his hand and rubbed her head, smiling, "Take it." ”

"Huh?"

Seeing her surprise, Chu Youyuan smiled even more happily, "You still have me, it's a big deal that I will raise you." ”

Although he didn't want to admit it, Song Yan was indeed deeply moved by this sentence, and his eyes were full of sweetness.

"That's not good," she snorted, "a woman has to have her own business, and once she is raised by someone else, it's over!" You say it nicely now, maybe you will get bored after a while, and then break up with a different circle of life or something. Hmph, even if I go to open a restaurant, I can't eat at home and wait for death! ”

Chu Youyuan was really helpless about her brain circuit, but he still chuckled, "Then you took it?" ”

Song Yan froze for a moment, then gritted his teeth, closed his eyes and nodded heavily, "Take it!" ”

People live for a lifetime, good opportunities are hard to come by, how can there be anything absolutely risk-free? Since ancient times, there has been no shortage of realism in films with literary and artistic themes, so in all respects, this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if you miss it, I don't know if there will be this store again.

It's better to take advantage of your youth and simply gamble!

Seeing her look at death, Chu Youyuan almost burst into laughter, "You don't have to be so tragic, in fact, I think that maybe things are not as bad as you imagined." ”

Song Yan looked over puzzled, "What do you say?" ”

Chu Youyuan raised his eyebrows and spread his hands, "Brother Xiao is so shrewd, you are the first female general under him, if this matter really does more harm than good, he will definitely be the first to object, I am afraid that even Feng'er will not leak it to you." But not only did he sue you, but he even sent the script, which is a problem. ”

Song Yan slapped his face, and suddenly felt that his mouth suddenly opened, "I said why do you always feel that something seems to be wrong, it turns out to be here!" ”

That's right, Qi Huang is so picky, ah no, how delicate it is, don't say that there is really a danger of being banned, even if it is not enough to make ends meet, Xiao Jingyuan will not agree to his own artist to take the job casually!

Sure enough, her mind still can't keep up with these people, tsk.

Chu Youyuan said again, "A few years ago, because of Zhao Zongze's incident, the scale of film and television works and filmmakers in China has been liberalized a lot, coupled with the connections between Du Yun and Qi Huang, as well as your mass base here, I estimate that at most it is a good and unpopular one, and you can't make money, as for the ban, it's not enough." ”

Song Yan thought so deeply after hearing this, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.

Also, this script is a little violent at most, and it has nothing to do with blood/blood, sex/eroticism, anti-science or anything, even if it can't be released in China for other reasons, she will only make less money for a year at most, what's there!

I didn't say it, I took it!

She immediately called Xiao Jingyuan, and the first thing she said was, "Brother Xiao, let's not bring this, aren't you just scaring me!" ”

Xiao Jingyuan laughed, sounding like he was in a good mood, "Isn't this the New Year, just kidding." ”

Song Yan was full of black lines, and said in his heart, what happened to you, you are in such a good mood, you are still joking!

"Du Yun told me, he only fancied your acting skills, you have to be, can you see when you can meet him?"

It's rare to have a confidant in life, even if you are a maxima, if you don't have Bole, you have to be versatile.

Song Yan couldn't help but feel agitated after hearing this, "I can do it anytime!" ”

"Tomorrow, then."

"Huh?!"

At this time, she came back to her senses, she was still celebrating the New Year at someone's house, and it was only the second day of the Lunar New Year, so she didn't have a lot of left, right? Hey, no, Xiao Jingyuan must have calculated before he called himself, because Chu Youyuan will also go to a foreign audition tomorrow!

Hearing that Song Yan was going back with his son, Chu's father and Chu's mother were very reluctant, so they stuffed a lot of things before leaving, and held their hands vigorously and said, "I will definitely come back to see it often in the future." ”

Early the next morning, the two packed their luggage and went straight to the airport, and after meeting with their respective teams, one ran through the inner line and the other ran the foreign line, which was really efficient.

At half past three in the afternoon on the second day of the Lunar New Year, Song Yan met the legendary Du Yun in a time-honored teahouse in Wangyantai City.

To be honest, when he saw Du Yun's first face from afar, Song Yan was a little afraid to admit it, because the other party was too sloppy!

Crumpled clothes, messy hair, a beard with teeth and claws, and deeply sunken eye sockets and cheeks. Oh, there's an old ginger coat wrapped outside, where is this a big director and screenwriter, a refugee!

To put it mildly, the mere fact that the teahouse doorman was able to let him in is enough to show the professionalism and humanism of this shop.

I don't know what Du Yun experienced before, seeing that the whole person was thin and out of shape, standing there almost merging with the bamboo bush behind him, all dry and thin......

But his eyes were bright and scary, especially the moment he saw Song Yan walk in, it was as bright as if he would shoot a laser from it at any time.

"Hello Song Yan, I'm Du Yun, please take a seat."

As soon as she shook her hand, Song Yan was taken aback again, if it weren't for the temperature, she would almost think that what she was holding was a piece of old bark that had long been weathered:

Dry, cracked, hard.

Without waiting for her to ask, Du Yun took the initiative to laugh and said, "Frightened, right?" ”

Song Yan nodded honestly, smiling a little embarrassed, "It's okay." ”

Du Yun waved his hand, "Don't save face for me, don't talk about you, even my parents are about to frighten me crazy, if I hadn't reported myself on the spot, they would have called the police." ”

Song Yan couldn't help laughing out loud after hearing this, feeling that this person was quite humorous.

Du Yun is forty-two years old this year, and he is not particularly handsome, at most he is a middle-aged person, basically the kind of person who can't be found in the pile. But he has a natural temperament, a temperament that makes people unconsciously get closer.

His demeanor has the unique heartiness and neatness of the northern gentlemen, and a simple cup of tea also gives him a kind of atmosphere of desert sand.

"To be honest, although the script has been available for a long time, I have been worried about the selection of people, and then I suddenly saw the "Thorn" you played that day," at this point, he slapped his thigh violently, "It's you!" ”

Song Yan was shocked and muttered, "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." ”

Du Yun waved his hand disappreciatively, "Don't be modest, I still have some confidence in my vision." ”

For the past five years, he has been experiencing life, from laid-off workers to homeless homeless people, and he has played most of the most socially unpopular roles.

He carefully observed and figured out the life and rest of various small people in society, and then refined them little by little, and finally created the role of Yuan Meng.

To put it bluntly, this is the most satisfying book he has had in ten years!

The work is equivalent to the screenwriter's child, and Du Yun also wants his child to be born perfectly, without a trace of regret.

His ideal Yuan Meng is stubborn, strong, and even has some obvious ferocity, and there is an indelible humanity hidden in his bones......

At the beginning, Du Yun was looking for actors while writing the script, and then continued to revise the script. It's been almost three years since he started writing, and he has never found a suitable actor.

He doesn't want stiff acting skills, let alone middle-aged actresses to pretend to be tender......

It wasn't until he went home in November that he accidentally saw Song Yan's performance in "Thorn", obediently, it was decided!

"How is it," Du Yun was as thirsty as if he hadn't drunk water for a whole year, he kept refilling the water, cup after cup, and finally simply shook the bottom of the teapot towards the sky, licked his lips that were still slightly chapped, looked at Song Yan with those eyes with a unique look, and asked:

"Do you want to join me and create a miracle?"
