Chapter 147: The director is Wong Kar-wai, so it's absolutely torture

The plane from London to Hong Kong slowly landed at Hong Kong International Airport.

Sean walked out of the passage, and his first feeling was that there were a lot of people, and the second feeling was that there were really a lot of people.

One of the two people who came to pick up the airport was an employee of BMW and the other was an assistant of Zedong Film Company. As for what Zedong Company belongs to, after listening to the assistant's explanation, Sean knew that this is the agency of director Wong Kar-wai.

After being stuck in traffic for more than an hour, Sean checked into the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Hong Kong, and listened to the introduction of two escorts, who could overlook the beautiful night view of Victoria Harbour at night.

"Daniel, can you help me get some video tapes or discs about director Karwai Wong?" Seeing the surprised look on the assistant in front of him, Sean smiled and shrugged his shoulders, "I have a lot of sleep on the plane, I think I can watch the videotape at night in addition to watching the night scene." ”

BMW employees and Zedong assistants looked at each other strangely.

"Well, Mr. Sean, as you wish. I'll send you the video of the film that directed Wong Kar-wai or won the Best Director Award at Cannes. ”

"Thank you."

Sean smiled slightly and sent off the two escorts.

The assistant's words just now surprised Sean, he didn't expect this Chinese director to be so cool and win the Best Director at Cannes. It seems that the previous ignorance is just a shallow knowledge.

Being able to take a look at this director's movie in advance has a good paving effect for Sean's next cooperation with director Wong Kar-wai. Anyway, Sean thinks that he can see some of the shooting habits of director Wong Kar-wai who he is not familiar with through the movie, which can be regarded as a basic skill and the quality of a real actor.

In order to complete the filming smoothly, Sean decided to watch the videotape directed by Wong Kar-wai at night.

Night.

Victoria Harbour is as beautiful as the assistant said.

But Sean was in no mood to pay attention to Victoria Harbour, just across the window, frowning, obscure as he watched the "Happy Together" with English subtitles in front of him.

"The Philadelphia Story"?

"Unruly Sky"?

After Sean watched "Happy Together", Sean thought of the two most famous gay movies in Hollywood. Needless to say, Tom Hanks' rights fighter and theme song "Streets of Philadelphia" have become timeless classics.

"Unruly Sky" is a movie starring Sean's favorite actor Raven Phoenix and today's hottest actor Keanu Reeves.

These two are gay movies that Sean has watched. But Sean found that the movie in front of him called "Happy Spring" broke Sean's view of gay movies.

Or rather......

Sean didn't want to admit that he couldn't understand what the movie was trying to say, and many of the shots violated the conventions of cinema that Sean knew.

Although it is really incomprehensible, it does not prevent Sean from feeling that this movie is an excellent movie. Because he saw the shocking performances of two actors who shocked him deeply.

Methodist? Experiential? Academic? Wild Road?

NO!

If someone mentions these to him. Sean would give him his middle finger and greet Fack.

The performances of the two leading actors in the movie left Sean dumbfounded.

When the film ended and the cast was raised, Sean woke up. He took the remote control and frantically went backwards to find the actor of the role.

lesliecheung! This is the name that Sean saw.

Leslie! It was the name that popped into his head.

I don't know why. Sean felt a little inexplicably heavy in his heart after watching this movie that he didn't understand. This actor named Leslie Cheung is even more talented and great than Rivan Phoenix. Although the actor named Tony Leung Chiuwai also played a wonderful role, it can be said that there is no distinction between the top and the bottom.

But Sean likes this kind of deviance called Leslie Cheung's acting.

When I saw his delicate interpretation to the peak and the mastery of his body language, he simply showed the delicacy and extromination to the extreme.

Sean didn't expect that there would be an actor who perfectly integrated these two points.

watched the film again, but Sean still didn't understand it. But when the last scene. When the man hugged the red carpet left by another man and cried, Sean seemed to have a stuffy breath in his chest that could not be vented, and he was extremely uncomfortable.

Sean didn't like this movie, the first was that he couldn't understand it, and the second was that he felt tired every time he watched it. It's not the kind of tiredness that I don't understand, but the kind of tiredness that is difficult to explode with suppressed emotions.

Put it in a tote bag.

Take it out.

Stuff it in.

Take it out.

Sean was tempted to yell at Victoria Harbour and "FUCK!" "And throw the damn tape out. But in the end, the tape was received by Sean in a tote bag. Placed under the wallet.

Despite not wanting to admit it, Sean suffered from insomnia.

He now felt that the strange eyes of the two people who looked at each other during the day must have expected him to be so upset and unable to sleep.

Damn the professionalism of the actors! Shit understands the directorial style! It was the biggest joke of 2000. Sean felt that he must be stupid in front of those two people.

"Maybe they're calling me an American stupid donkey behind their backs." Sean kicked off the red blanket, "Shet! The Bruce Lee I used to like was in Hong Kong, shouldn't all Hong Kong movies be like John Woo or Bruce Lee? How could there be such a ...... Wong Kar-wai?"

Damn it!

I hate these filmmakers who play art the most, and they don't follow the rules.

……

Sean reached his third cup of coffee. Wong Kar-wai, who was wearing black sunglasses and a jacket, slowly walked into the café.

Wong Kar-wai sat down, seemed to think for a while, and then remembered Sean's name, and nodded to Sean a little apologetically, "Hello Mr. Sean, there's something going on over there." ”

"It's okay." Sean nodded in the same way.

A cold king of sunglasses, an American tough guy, the two glanced at each other a few times, and then fell into a silent atmosphere. This made the assistant sitting next to him and the BMW staff extremely uncomfortable. Originally, they thought that Wong Kar-wai was boring enough, but they never thought that this tough-looking Yankee would also play deeply.

As if he felt that he couldn't go on so coldly as the master, Wong Kar-wai glanced at the advertising script in front of Sean, "This is an advertising script?" ”

"Yes. I've read the script a few times before. Sean said.

"Mr. Sean even made a point to let us show you a movie tape last night." The assistant added next to him, "That "Springtime". ”

"Oh." The King of Sunglasses continued to be cold.

Sean drinks coffee to himself. Don't answer.

The assistant's face was embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say.

"I've been busy editing a new movie lately, so I'm ......," Wong Kar-wai said without a head.

"Director Wong Kar-wai, you can say it...... A little Chinese. I'll be able to understand a little bit. Sean watched Wong Kar-wai say half a sentence, and couldn't help but say to Wong Kar-wai in Mandarin Chinese half-hung that appeared in his mind somehow, "I think we can communicate in your language......"

Wong Kar-wai raised his head and glanced at Sean. Sean gave him a big smile.

"He said yes?" The King of Sunglasses turned his head to look at the assistant, "What are you talking about?" ”

"Neither ...... chicken"

The assistant said a few words to Wong Kar-wai with embarrassment.

Sean was dumbfounded.

What are you talking about? Didn't you speak Chinese well? Bullying me foreigners who don't understand Chinese? But what language do you baa-s-chickens speak?

For the first time, Sean wanted to show off his skills in Chinese to Hong Kong people, but he was hit by two Hong Kong people who did not know the language. This wiped out the excitement of mastering a third language other than English and Italian.

He still thinks that he should talk about the advertising shooting.

"When can we start shooting?"

Sean looked at Wong Kar-wai in front of him with a cool look on his face, wearing sunglasses. complained for a while in my heart, this guy is simply too characterful, and he doesn't take off his sunglasses when he enters the restaurant. Naturally, he won't know the real reason why Wong Kar-wai wears sunglasses, he only thinks that Wong Kar-wai is cooler.

"Uh......"

Wong Kar-wai looked at Sean who was looking at him, groaned, and pointed to the script in front of Sean, "This script is the advertising copy written by my company's copywriter to BMW, I want to change it, and I'll talk about it on the set tomorrow." ”

Let's talk about it!

Sean watched in amazement as the tall guy lifted his ass and walked away. Just throw a perfunctory word to Sean.

Fake, what's going on?

Sean looked at the two staff members next to him.

"Director Wong Kar-wai means that filming can start tomorrow. We will pick you up at the hotel at that time. The assistant explained.

"Since this is not a script, then I want to see a new script." Sean got up to leave, suddenly stopped, and turned his head to look at his assistant, "I don't like the tape you gave me last night. Sorry, let one ......"

Sean felt that he really had a sense of depression.

At night, I watched a movie I couldn't understand, watched a depressed character, and met a director who changed the script during the day. This feeling irritates Sean.

I just called the assistant to urge the other party to send a new script, and the answer I got turned out to be that the script is still being written, and the director will give the outline to Sean on the shooting set tomorrow. As for today. Whatever Sean wants.

The assistant also recommended Sean to go to a place called Lan Kwai Fong for a drink.

This made Sean almost yell at the assistant,, Lan Kwai Fong! I'm here to shoot an advertisement. I just want to read the script right now.

But this depression can't be transformed into concrete motivation, not that Sean doesn't want to transform, but there is no way to start. I have done useless research on the advertising script of "Tracking" before. This strangeness made Sean very unaccustomed.

Or insecurity.

In the end, Sean had no choice but to turn out the videotape pressed at the bottom of his handbag, and re-enter the video recorder to watch the work of this wonderful director again.

And then......

On the second night of Sean's arrival in Oriental Hong Kong, he lost sleep again. (To be continued.) )

PS:PS:

Lao Ye found a special LOW-B thing! Shameless! I knew that the recommendation ticket thing was going to kill me sooner or later! I found out that I turned out to be the ticket king of my book!! It's too LOW, I just kept the usual recommended tickets for myself, and you actually made Lao Ye the king of tickets......

It's too inferior, and I was ridiculed by many friends. I explained to them that I just thought that the giant was really good, and I had to vote! Then the group of guys collectively changed the name of Lao Ye to LOW Ye! Originally, my name was Merry and Graceful, Critically Ripe Leaf......

I'm going to lose sleep too! xh123
