Chapter 22: Memory is a glass of old wine

A person who has the ability to enter the team of cinematographers of the two classic films "Men in Black" and "Elf Mouse Brother", his photography skills must be needless to say, coupled with Brent's ultimate pursuit of photography, it makes Xiansen feel tempted, only by doing the ultimate can he make the best, which is the philosophy of life that Xiansen believes in.

His yet-to-be-shot film lacks a cinematographer, no, it should be said that it lacks a cinematographer that he can recognize and has the ability to provoke the whole film. And Brent, in front of him, seems to be a good choice.

"Brent, I wonder if you're still interested in movies?"

With his eyes set, Xiansen decided to take Brent into his team step by step.

"Interest? Of course, making a film is the greatest recognition for a photographer. ”

Brent gave his answer without the slightest hesitation, of course he was interested in movies, but the reputation of the film killer was also a household name in Hollywood, so almost no crew was willing to hire him, and he hadn't received a job-related to movies for a whole year.

Seeing that Brent's answer was very firm, Xiansen felt that there was a play, so he continued: "Brent, that's the case, I have a movie, and it hasn't started yet, but I hope you can be the cinematographer of the film, but the salary is a little low." ”

Hearing Xiansen say this, Leonardo, who was sitting on the side, squirted out the water he had just drunk into his mouth, he had heard of the legend of photographer Brent, it is said that this guy can use up all 100 million feet of film, and can completely distort the style of a movie, in the eyes of many people, this guy is simply the director's nemesis, the actor's sufferer, the scum of the photography industry, and the cancer of the film industry.

So when he heard that Xiansen was going to bring Brent into his film team, Leonardo couldn't sit still, he glanced at Xiansen, and was ready to go outside with Xiansen to communicate with Xiansen when Brent was thinking, some things are not easy to say in front of the other party.

"Okay, make a movie? No problem! It's okay to have a full meal. ”

Hearing this, Leonardo was completely desperate, he didn't expect Brent to answer so quickly, so surely, so resolutely, without the slightest hesitation. This also left Leonardo without even a chance to remind Xiansen. Shaking his head, Leonardo gave Xiansen a self-seeking look.

"Haha, rejoice, Brent, welcome to you."

Xiansen originally had a little bit of preparation to induce Brent, such as script actors and the like, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't need it now, so he excitedly pointed to Leonardo and introduced: "This is Leonardo DiCaprio, he will be the actor of this movie, I think you should have heard of it before." ”

Glancing at Leonardo, Brent shook his head suspiciously, and said puzzledly: "Leonardo? Don't you know, he's famous? ”

Rolling his eyes, Leonardo strengthened the rumors circulating in the circle a little more in his heart, let alone knowing himself, you must know that Brent is rumored to be in the crew of "Men in Black" for a month, and he doesn't even know who Will Smith is.

Of course, Leonardo didn't know all this, and he was still immersed in the joy that his team finally had a videographer, and the most important thing was that this photographer only needed to have enough food, which was really cheap

Mid-August 2000.

The scene of the female teacher in "Death Illusion" has been filmed.

That was Julie Barrymore's character, and now, she could rest.

In fact, just two days ago, she received a message from Xiansen.

The content of this message contains a lot, from being rejected by Columbia Pictures to meeting photographer Brent, to being politely rejected by Lionsgate, being rejected by Paramount, being rejected by MGM, and being rejected by 20th Century Fox, Bowe, Damman, New Line, Miramax, and other companies that originally planned to go and did not plan to go.

Xiansen said these refusals very honestly, and at the end of the message, he also pretended to be calm and comforted Julie Barrymore, telling her not to worry, she must have a way to raise funds.

"What a hard-mouthed man."

Saving the information to his phone's favorites, Barrymore sighed softly. She could feel Xiansen's feelings, and in her mind, this man might be hiding somewhere secretly crying.

Tears?

That's right, Xiansen is indeed shedding tears, but it has nothing to do with the frustration in the movie.

"Dad, are you sure you want to cut all these onions into slices? Can I cut it with glasses? ”

Xiansen weighed the onion in his hand, and said that this was already the third one he had cut, and even if it was fried pork liver, he didn't need so much.

"It's okay, put more fragrance."

Lying on the sofa, Saysachi was watching TV while directing his son, and this kind of life was very comfortable for him.

Shaking his head helplessly, Xiansen continued to do the work in his hands, no way, who told him that this was what he volunteered to do. Today is his father's birthday, and he wants to cook a meal for his father.

Many times, love is big or small.

Doing these seemingly ordinary little things is the greatest comfort to parents.

More than half an hour later, in the midst of chaos, Xiansen finally cooked the dish.

Three dishes and one soup, two vegetables and two meats, it looks quite hearty.

"Dad, happy life."

After bringing the dishes to the table, Xiansen took out a bottle of liquor from his room, the bottle was very ordinary, and there was no outer packaging.

"Dad, today is your 49th birthday, I'll pour you a glass."

As he spoke, Xiansen filled his father's cup.

The wine tastes mellow and smells intoxicating.

Xianzuozhi looked at the liquor in the cup, sighed a little reluctantly, and muttered to himself: "You kid, give me a cup every year, but it's okay, keep a thought, so as not to have it from now on." ”

This bottle of wine has a unique meaning for the father and son of the Xian family, because it is the only thing left by Xiansen's mother to Xiansen.

Xiansen's mother brewed a jar of wine when Xiansen was not born, and then buried the wine jar in the cellar, ready to take it out when Xiansen got married, but unfortunately, many times life is full of regrets, and before Xiansen grew up, Xiansen's mother left this world forever. And this jar of wine has become the most precious thing in Xiansen.

I took a sip of the glass, and the wine tasted mellow, like a clear spring crossing my throat, spicy but not dry. Xian Sachi couldn't help but close his eyes, after coming to the United States for so many years, only when he drank this glass of wine every year, would he think of all the things in his hometown and everything about Xiansen's mother.

"Zhi, do you see us? Your son has grown up. ”

Drinking the wine from the cup, Sen Sachi put down the glass, and as if he had made up his mind, he took something out of his pocket and handed it to Sen Sen.
