Chapter 47: A Strange Combination
"This ...... Yan Zai, you're not mistaken, right? Looking at the list of several leading actors, Tsui Hark raised huge questions.
Lu Yan was calm, and only responded: "No! That's the best actor in my mind, and I'm going to find a way to get them in anyway. ”
"I finally know why you said it wasn't the 'Big Cast' lineup that day." Tsui Hark smiled bitterly, and his eyes, which were still a little expectant, had dimmed and said: "But even if it's not the 'Big Cast' lineup, you shouldn't get me such a list!" Among the three leading actors, apart from Leslie Cheung, who still has the appeal at the box office of the movie? ”
Regarding Tsui Hark's words, Lu Yan obviously understood. But none of that mattered to him. Because, without these three leading actors, he really can't choose other actors.
"It's not that you don't know, although Fa Tsai is very popular in TV series. But he is the declining star of all directors, known as 'box office poison'. And Dillon, who's going to be forty years old soon. Although it used to be very popular, it is already outdated! Tsui Hark couldn't figure out why Lu Yan picked them and how he thought of them.
If you only met Dillon in "The True Color of Heroes", maybe everyone has the impression that he is the old man with a face full of vicissitudes. You can't imagine how popular he used to be, and you can't imagine how handsome he used to be.
In the 70s, he was a well-deserved big brother in the Hong Kong film industry, and the golden combination of David Jiang has been prosperous for a long time, and there are countless classic works.
The young Dillon is tall and burly, upright and delicate, with an awe-inspiring righteousness between his eyebrows, a natural calm bearing and brotherly demeanor, after watching his plays, you will feel that there is no second person worthy of the word "handsome", you will understand why Gu Long strongly opposed Zheng Shaoqiu to play Chu Liuxiang back then, saying that the Chu Liuxiang in his mind was only Dillon.
But no matter how strong a hero is, there is a day of decline, and later when he starred in "The True Color of Heroes", he was forty years old, and his image was not as good as before, and at the time when Jackie Chan's kung fu comedy swept the world, it was even more useless, if it wasn't for Song Zihao's appearance, he didn't know when he would usher in the second spring of his career.
Hearing Tsui Hark's words, Lu Yan really couldn't think of how to answer for a while. In the end, he could only make up one sentence and say: "Isn't there still Leslie Cheung!" He is so popular now, and his appeal is not small. ”
"Yes, Leslie Cheung is very popular in the music world. But what about movies? He doesn't have any acting skills! Some time ago, he starred in "Fate", and the box office was only two million. What's more, you still let him play the role of Applejack, and I don't know if people will accept it or not. "Lu Yan's mouth is hard, and he is useless here in Tsui Hark.
Regarding Tsui Hark's opposition to actors, Lu Yan really has nothing to do. In fact, he also knew that this result would occur, so he didn't put the cast list in the script for a long time. But in his own play, the three of them are indispensable at all. If it is replaced by other actors to film, it is estimated that Lu Yan himself will lack a lot of confidence in the first place.
"Yanzai, tell me yourself. What kind of film company is willing to pay for your so, well, such a strange shooting combination? A rookie director who has never made a movie, an out-of-fashion kung fu movie star who has been slightly bald, a box office poison who has repeatedly failed after transforming from the small screen to the big screen, and an idol singer who has become a king in the music industry but is still half popular in the film industry...... You yourself say that it's not strange that you have such a combination. Tsui Hark laughed when he said it, he had decided to persuade Lu Yan to replace these leading actors.
"Hmm!" After hearing these words, Lu Yan suddenly felt a little big.
Lu Yan, like many people, doesn't know the story behind "The True Color of Heroes", in fact, Hong Kong people don't necessarily know the story behind it. Everyone is only fascinated by the picture, the characters, and the plot. At that time, Hong Kong's social transition period had just ended, the economy was taking off rapidly, and the film and music circles had also entered a golden age, becoming the cultural center of the entire Asian region...... A variety of works are blooming and endless.
It is in this context that Wu Yusen stands out from the encirclement with the courage to fight against the water, filming the vicissitudes and dreams of the first half of his life, and also filming the blood and passion hidden in everyone's bones: Brother Xiao Ma hugged the dancer to shoot the enemy with the rhythm of music, Song Zihao hugged his loyal friend with tears, Ah Cheng's coldness, Jie Zai's roar, the rain of bullets in the sky, and the flying clothes...... have become classic details of famous film history.
But it doesn't matter if you don't know this, the important thing is that Lu Yan knows that the movie "The True Color of Heroes" was finally made. Since he, Wu Yusen, can do it, Lu Yan is confident that he can also do it, and even do better.
So no matter how Tsui Hark persuades and analyzes, Lu Yan is determined to choose these three as the leading actors.
Seeing this situation, Tsui Hark could only be helpless.
The staff passing by the 'film studio' all heard Tsui Hark's excited voice inside, but they obviously didn't know that this Xu Lao monster was roaring for the actors of Lu Yan's new film at this time.
Seeing that the persuasion was ineffective, Xu Hark could only sigh and say: "Yan Zai, your decision like this makes it difficult for me." Even if Xinyicheng is unwilling to invest, I can still find a way to help you attract other film companies to invest. But you decided that these three actors would play the ......"
"Director, you have to believe me. The three of them will definitely do it, and you won't be disappointed when this movie comes out! Lu Yan said conclusively, his eyes full of affirmation.
"Yanzai, it's not that I don't believe you......" As he spoke, Tsui Hark didn't know how to express himself.
He didn't want these actors to ruin this movie and ruin Lu Yan. But he didn't want to kill this young man's dream, this young man's aura.
In the end, he could only nod with a wry smile and say, "Okay! Leave everything else aside and I'll try to help you as much as I can. Fortunately, there are still a few months to go, so don't be discouraged by what I just said! ”
For Lu Yan, Tsui Hark is more important and tolerant.
"Director, I won't let you down." In fact, any kind of promise is pale now, but Lu Yan still expressed his gratitude and gratitude in his own way.
In terms of actors, it was not Lu Yan who persuaded Tsui Hark. Instead, Tsui Hark decided to fulfill this offspring once and give him a chance to fulfill his dream.
And there are many people, and it is often such an opportunity that is missing. In comparison, even if Lu Yan failed, he was much luckier than them. What's more, there are some people who have seized such an opportunity and soared into the sky!
[The results are very high, and the mood is very depressed. But like Xue, just put the words here, even if it is a mess, there will definitely be no more eunuchs. Otherwise, self-sealing will never go to the starting point again!!! 】
