Chapter 275 "The True Colors of Heroes"

Next chapter

"Brother Cheng, Wu Shangfei is here." Knocking on Ye Jingcheng's office door, Zhu Baoyi walked in and reported.

"Wu Shangfei?" After thinking about it carefully, Ye Jingcheng was sure that he didn't know such a person, so he asked, "What is the origin of this person?" ”

"You don't know? This is the person you pointed out to see. Zhu Baoyi said with some astonishment.

"What did I designate to see?" As soon as Zhu Baoyi said this, Ye Jingcheng was even more confused. When did he say he wanted to see someone he didn't know?

Wait a minute! Wu Shangfei,Wu ...... Could it be Wu Yusen? He was indeed looking for someone to go to Jiahe to find the other party a few days ago, but at that time, Wu Yusen went to shoot the location, so he set a time to meet him.

Whether it is Wu Yusen or not, it is necessary for him to meet this person. So he instructed Zhu Baoyi: "Call him in." ”

"Ye Sheng." The visitor nodded kindly at Ye Jingcheng.

"Hello." The two shook hands and sat down again.

Sure enough, it was him! But why did Wu Yusen use a pseudonym?

That's right! This Wu Yusen also came back from Shi Tian, and the earlier "Funny Times" produced by Xinyicheng was directed by Wu Yusen, who had learned Chaplin's shaping of the character image and his artistic style.

Ye Jingcheng secretly laughed to himself, this Wu Yusen is also really. On the one hand, he had to secretly hide from the proprietor Jiahe to make extra money, but on the other hand, he was worried that the proprietor would know about it, so he used the insurance method of pseudonym.

But that's fine, an authentic pit like Wu Yusen, Ye Jingcheng doesn't want to pull him into the company. It's good for the two to maintain temporary cooperation, and the pits in the back are still left to Jiahe.

Wu Yusen is indeed talented, but his appearance is very extreme. In the future, he won many international awards, and at the same time, he also caused several Hollywood studios to go out of business.

Among the people on Hong Kong Island who can be invincible to him, there is only Wang Jiawei, the king of the pit kings.

These two people don't take advantage of their good commercial film talents, but like to make the kind of films that win awards for the sake of winning awards. In the end, the film did win a lot of awards, but the film company behind them had to jump into the pit again and again.

It seems that John Woo will shoot "The Wind Whisperer" for Hollywood's Michael Company in the future, the film is about white people and Indians, and the subject matter itself is very sensitive, and he is a yellow person, which naturally leads to many people who are not convinced, so that the director repeatedly jumped tickets during the release, and the result is naturally that the film hit the street, and the Michael Company that supported his filming also collapsed.

Such a pitfall, Ye Jingcheng asked himself if he couldn't control it. Although he came up this time, it was related to the next movie that the company was going to shoot.

But in this film, Ye Jingcheng believes that the other party will not be able to trap him, and may even have unexpected benefits.

"Does Mr. Wu have any plans to leave Golden Harvest?" Ye Jingcheng said tentatively.

"Well...... Wu Yusen said hesitantly, "I don't have this plan for the time being." ”

It's a good thing you didn't have that plan, anyway, I'll just ask casually. Smiling, Ye Jingcheng said: "The purpose of coming up this time, I don't know if Shi Tian told you something?" ”

"I said it, but I don't know what you plan to arrange Ye Sheng." Wu Yusen naturally knew a rough idea, otherwise he would not have used a pseudonym to register for an appointment.

"I have a script for a shootout movie now, but you know it......" Ye Jingcheng laughed at himself: "It's a pity that I am such a small company, and I can't find relevant talents to know, I don't know if Mr. Wu has any research on this aspect." ”

"Shootout films?" The topic immediately piqued John Woo's interest.

In fact, he has always wanted to try to shoot movies with other themes, instead of constantly shooting commercial films with funny themes for Jiahe in order to become famous and live at the beginning.

"Yes, I'm not going to let it go the commercial route with this film. Rather, I wanted it to be presented in an artistic way of interest and formal exploration, and in layman's terms, it was to ritualize violent action scenes, so I needed a qualified director. Ye Jingcheng explained.

"Ritualize violent action scenes." Hearing this, Wu Yusen fell into a sluggish state.

He muttered it several times in his mouth, I don't know when he started, he began to have a very vague idea, but now after Ye Jingcheng said it, he found that the other party actually verbalized his thoughts.

Wu Yusen said impatiently: "Ye Sheng, I don't know if you can talk about it in detail. ”

"Is this question ......" Ye Jingcheng smiled and gestured to the other party for the text on the table.

He doesn't mind saying more to Wu Yusen, anyway, the film style of violent aesthetics is also the foundation laid by Wu Yusen in the future. But for now, let's let the other party agree to be the director.

"Since Ye Sheng you look up to me, I naturally have no reason to refuse." After reading this article simply, Wu Yusen signed his name.

Compared with spending some time directing a movie for the other party, he attaches more importance to what Ye Jingcheng just said, which may become his future film style.

Ye Jingcheng took the contract back, glanced at it and took out another text, but it was the script that was going to be filmed next.

"The True Colors of Heroes?" John Woo took the script and looked at it, it was the four big characters written on the cover. It seems that this title also became a wife, allowing him to instantly string together his previous scattered thoughts,

Violence and heroism, this seems to be a wonderful combination. Ye Jingcheng on the side also began to show his 'erudition and talent', informing each other of his personal opinions.

For example, the presentation of violence can be divided into two different forms, one is that after the formalization and socialization of violence, its aggression is softened, and violence becomes easily accepted.

The other is to show the violent process and the bloody effect more directly, and exaggerate the sensory stimulation of violence.

Hearing a large number of words, Wu Yusen couldn't understand for a while, and pleaded: "Ye Sheng, you mean to unite violence and aesthetics?" But how do you unite them? ”

"It's simple. For example, bullets and bloody scenes are treated with special effects and other means, and their aggressive tendencies are partially hidden. It seems that in some movies in the United States, the perpetrator represents justice but is wronged, and the setting of this character relationship also softens the aggressiveness of violence. Ye Jingcheng explained.

In the end, the two discussed this topic for nearly two hours. Or Zhu Baoyi came in and told someone else that they wanted to see Ye Jingcheng, Wu Yusen put away his thoughts and left automatically, he received a lot of information, and he couldn't digest it for a while, so he still had to go back and raise the pillow and think about it for a night
