Baoqiang stayed in the crew of "Lust and Caution" until the finale, Fang Yang has been observing him, he is very immature at this time, of course he has no acting skills or anything, but he just has a natural sense of joy, which makes people want to laugh every time they see him. Fang Yang noticed that only he would be like this, for others, Xu Zheng couldn't even understand why the boss would favor a group performance so much, Fang Yang thought: Maybe it's because he watched "People in Embarrassment" with Xu Zheng.
After meeting Baoqiang, Fang Yang wanted to make "People in Embarrassment", this movie is even more powerful than "Crazy Stone", which can be called a low-cost and high-box office classic, but the most powerful thing is the sequel to this movie "Thai Embarrassment", the mainland box office of 1.267 billion yuan dominated the domestic box office champion of domestic films for several years.
Fang Yang first wrote the script of "People in Embarrassment" after meeting Baoqiang, and handed it over to Xu Zheng after "Lust and Caution" was completed, but he did not let him shoot it immediately, but first took Baoqiang to the crew of "Blind Well" to polish his acting skills, and as a result, he was impressed by Baoqiang, and he was really a natural actor, so he asked Xu Zheng to form the crew of "People in Embarrassment".
only gave him 5 million, Xu Zheng originally thought that he was not doing well about this, and he was going to be kicked by the boss to sit on the cold bench, you must know that he is also a big director in Feiyang Entertainment Company, at least he is a descendant of the boss, and he directs tens of millions of large-scale products. After reading the script carefully, I realized that it was the boss who promoted him, although the money given was small, but the script was really good.
Not to mention that Xu Zheng took 5 million to take Baoqiang to film "People in Embarrassment", and talk about what happened after the movie "Lust and Caution" was completed.
Fang Yang has made some changes to the plot of this movie, although Director Li's original is good, but in Fang Yang's eyes, it is indeed suspected of 'beautifying traitors', in the original, a group of patriotic students, including the underground worker Lao Wu, look like a group of fools, but the big traitor Mr. Yi is personable, elegant and humane, so that the heroine who carried out the assassination mission fell in love with him.
Director Li was born in Taiwan, and became an American citizen, and said in the political zhì⌒♂dǐng⌒♂diǎn⌒♂小⌒♂, .≯.o∷s_(); In fact, he didn't have a clear position, he only paid attention to artistry when he made this movie, showing the diversity of a role, and at the same time, because he was born in literary films, he used his usual literary and artistic techniques on the traitor.
Fang Yang naturally would not make this kind of mistake, the traitor 'Mr. Yi' he personally played, since he is a traitor, he has to play a bad character with sores and pus on the soles of his feet, even if it is humane, it is also a hypocritical human touch, and the perverted behavior in bed is even more vivid.
In the original, the heroine fell in love with the traitor at the critical moment of the ambush, and even if she betrayed the organization, she also reminded him to leave quickly, so that the traitor escaped and in turn wiped out the patriotic students.
The last change is that when the patriotic students were shot, there was more tragedy, not the pale and anxious face in the original book, but the generosity to die calmly, this is not counting, there is an extra line of subtitles at the end: After the year, the pit battle was won, Mr. Yi was captured by the People's Liberation Army and executed by the people on a certain day in a certain month.
In short, there are not many things that have changed, and it has not lost its original charm, but the political tendency of the whole movie is distinct, no matter how personable and gentle the traitor is, he is actually a scum who betrays the country and seeks glory.
After Director Li's original "Lust and Caution" was released in China, it achieved a good box office, but the poor actress Tang Wei was tragically banned, and the audience thought that the actress would be banned because the scale of the movie was too large.
This also reflects the nature of the relevant departments to bully the weak and fear the hard, to say that the responsibility of 'beautifying the traitor' should lie with Director Li, let's just say that Chao Viagra, who played the traitor, is also more guilty, who told you to play a big traitor so personable that the patriotic female students were fascinated by the rebel organization.
But because Director Li is an internationally famous director and a Chinese-American, and Chao Viagra is an outstanding actor in Hong Kong, these two are not easy to punish, only poor Tang Wei is a newcomer who has just stepped into the entertainment industry, or a mainland actor, so he used her as a scapegoat.
After Fang Yang's modification of the current movie, there is naturally no such problem, although "Lust and Caution" is a large-scale restricted film, but it is also a blockbuster with a patriotic theme, and even primary and secondary schools in many cities have organized charters.
Fang Yang thought with a wicked taste: What would happen after the theater company made a mistake in copying the plate and showed the uncut overseas version to those children when it was chartered?
"Lust and Caution" was released simultaneously around the world, and the best box office table is of course the mainland, after all, the population base is large, the mainland box office is 130 million yuan, Taiwan bend 60 million, Hong Kong 40 million, North America 20 million, and the global total box office is 260 million yuan.
This kind of box office is not a good result for Hollywood master-level director Fang Yang, the main reason is that the director is not Fang Yang, although it is labeled as 'produced by Fang Yang', Xu Zheng is not popular in the North American film market, although the distributor DreamWorks Company promotes Fang Yang as the leading actor as a big seller, but the North American audience does not seem to buy his identity as an actor.
This incident has been laughed at by Danny since then, he always calls and says: "Dear Yang, I advise you to come back as a director as soon as possible, I believe that you will be able to beat Cameron to become the best director in the world, and you are simply not doing your job as an actor." ”
Fang Yang smiled and said: "How can Cameron's bad old man compare with me, I not only want to be the best director, but also the best actor." ”
In fact, Fang Yang doesn't pay much attention to the box office of "Lust and Caution", he acted in this movie to sprint for this year's actor, and now, he started the award journey with "Lust and Caution".
The Golden Rooster Award in the mainland was not nominated, because the film has relatively exposed shots, although it was edited and processed in the mainland, but the Golden Rooster Award jury did not nominate "Lust and Caution" for any award, Fang Yang expressed his understanding, after all, the mainland's policy is relatively conservative, and it is already thankful that it can be released smoothly, and it is completely impossible to win the award.
The Golden Horse Award in Taiwan was very face-saving, and gave "Lust and Caution" seven nominations, including the Best Actor Award, and Fang Yang began to struggle with whether to go to the awards ceremony again. (To be continued.) )
