345: Jiang Wei starred
The news of Infernal Affairs' release in the UK did not cause much of a sensation in China, and Roselle Entertainment did not publicize this matter excessively.
However, some domestic media happened to find out that Infernal Affairs was being released in the UK, and then reported it a little in the media.
But it wasn't until the end of the year that these media realized how much they had lost. What they have lost is not only the news that domestic films have been released overseas.
After returning from the UK, Wang Luo's life has become a three-point line, at home, on the road, and at work.
The younger sister has gone to Yanhua University to report, and the younger brother has been left at home to receive tutoring guidance because of academic problems.
Wang Luo's life and work have gradually become a little duller. On the one hand, he edited Infernal Affairs, and on the other hand, he went to find the shooting scenes of the upcoming TV series, and at the same time, he also made the final refinement of the script.
In terms of actors, the full-time producer in the company is also in charge of contact. However, the list was still provided by Wang Luo.
It can be said that in Roselle Entertainment, it may not be possible to play without Wang Luo's company. It's a deformed industrial model, but there's no way to change that in the short term.
Although Wang Luo is also trying to change these as much as possible, just like the TV series filmed by Yang Yihu in the first half of the year, Wang Luo did not interfere.
From the script, to the actors, to the post-editing or something, Yang Yihu and the company's producers are all responsible.
And Wang Luo was busy with running men and Infernal Affairs, so he didn't have time to intervene. According to Wang Luo's plan, there will be another two or three years at most. The company will be able to function normally.
Even if there is no Wang Luo. At best, the company will lose some revenue. But on the other hand. As long as this practice can be adhered to, the company can still do it.
The Foundation has left some regrets, but these regrets are also necessary. No one can support all the people in the first year, and the only thing they can do is to support more people in the coming year.
In addition, the foundation has also set up a special team to manage the social welfare work tasks of the 70,000 students who received assistance.
Zhang Ran was also very busy during this time. As for Liao Yi, Wang Luo rarely saw her. I only know that Liao Yi is negotiating with a large domestic company, and if it can succeed, it will bring billions of profits to the foundation in the next few years.
But these things are not Wang Luo's worries, and now Wang Luo is focusing on the editing of Infernal Affairs and the preparation of the next large-scale TV series.
The theater has basically been negotiated, with Hengdian Film and Television City in Zhejiang Province as the main film, and the scenes of the grassland will be filmed in Chifeng. However, things don't seem to be going well on the actor's side.
It's not that the price is too high, but that within the time required by Wang Luo, there is no schedule. This also resulted in several key characters not being able to find the role to play.
And the most important is to play two roles, and these two roles. has a pivotal position in this TV series.
If it weren't for Wang Luo being too young, I'm afraid Wang Luo himself would want to play that role directly.
After finalizing with the cast that there is no schedule. Wang Luo had to urgently activate the backup candidate. But Wang Luo has any suitable backup here?
Suddenly, Wang Luo thought of a person who was more suitable for this role, and as long as he opened his mouth, I am afraid that the other party would not refuse.
So, after getting off work in the evening, Wang Luo took the whole script and made a phone call to confirm that the other party was at home, and hurried over.
In the faculty community of Huayin College, compared with the teacher community of other schools, Huayin College is obviously doing a good job in this regard.
This community is not only full of high-rise buildings, but also a villa area. In addition to the senior leaders of the school, there are also some old professors who have a relatively high status in the school.
And Jiang Wei lives in one of these villas.
As a king-level figure in China, after retiring from the music scene, he directly came to Huayin students as professors, and over the years, there are not a few singers and artists he has cultivated.
Even many teachers in the school grew up listening to his songs. Therefore, it is not surprising that Jiang Wei has a super high prestige in Huayin Academy.
"You kid, there are only two possibilities to come to me. One is that I will call you with this old face, and the other is that I have something to come to me. As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Wei pointed at Wang Luo and scolded with a smile.
Although he is very optimistic about Wang Luo, and Wang Luo's performance is also very satisfactory to Jiang Wei.
But this can't cover up Wang Luo's flaws, in Jiang Wei's opinion, how far Wang Luo can go in the end is not his talent.
Talent is important, but more importantly, it also depends on a person's communication skills.
I have to say that Wang Luo is obviously doing very poorly in terms of communication skills. Even Jiang Wei, a person who has given great help to him on the road of life, Wang Luo rarely visits his door, and even rarely makes phone calls.
Although Jiang Wei didn't take this matter to heart, he was still worried about Wang Luo because of this problem.
Wang Luo was a little embarrassed by what Jiang Wei said, Wang Luo also knew his weaknesses, but in the same way, in his busyness, Wang Luo would gradually forget these things.
Then it caused the current situation, and he didn't come to Jiang Wei's house again for half a year, and he didn't make more than three phone calls.
It is also here that Jiang Wei is here, Wang Luo can not be so frightened, if he goes to other people, I am afraid that Wang Luo will really think about whether he will be blown out.
"Teacher Jiang, I didn't do it right, you should take care of it." Wang Luo apologized again and again.
"Hehe, you, this really needs to be changed. If you plunge into work like you are now, and you don't hear the style of things outside the window, I'm afraid it won't be long before your friends forget about you. Jiang Wei couldn't help but teach.
"Teacher Jiang, what you have taught me is that I will definitely change this."
"Have you eaten?" Jiang Wei saw that Wang Luo's attitude was not bad, and he looked like he was teaching a lesson.
And Jiang Wei in addition to this. I really can't find anything wrong with the other aspects. So I can only ask Wang Luo if he has eaten.
Wang Luo shook his head. I ran over directly after work, how could I have time to eat?
"It just so happens that I haven't eaten either, so let's eat together." Jiang Wei smiled.
He had already guessed that Wang Luo hadn't eaten, after all, it was only seven o'clock, and Wang Luo ran from the company all the way.
Dinner was made by Jiang Wei's nanny, strictly according to the physical condition of Jiang Wei and his wife, and the menu given by the nutritionist found by the school.
After a meal, Wang Luo followed Jiang Wei's footsteps to the study upstairs.
There are many history books about ancient China in the study. When Jiang Wei is not busy on weekdays, he also likes to read some ancient history. It can be said that in addition to music, history is Jiang Wei's favorite subject.
Even when he was young, Jiang Wei almost went to read history. If it weren't for the fact that I didn't get into the history major in the end, and then I repeated my studies for another year and took the music exam.
"Mr. Jiang, I plan to shoot a TV series in the second half of the year, and now I'm almost ready, but there are some problems with the actors." As soon as you enter the study. Wang Luo said directly.
"Oh? People won't come? Or what conditions were proposed? Jiang Wei was a little puzzled, with Wang Luo's current status in the film and television industry. There is a slim chance that the actor will not be found.
"No, an ideal actor for a very important role in the play, he can't shoot because of schedule problems, and the crew can't wait for him alone. So...... I thought about it for a while, and I think your temperament is more in line with this role, so I want to ......" Wang Luo hesitated.
Making a TV series is not about recording songs, you can do it in a few days. Even if the role only occupies a third of the scene, there is no doubt that it is absolutely impossible to complete without a month or two.
And Jiang Wei has a teaching task, so it is naturally impossible to leave for a month or two to shoot a TV series with him.
However, if Jiang Wei is willing, he can ask the school for a leave of absence and come back to class next semester.
Of course, these are just Wang Luo's personal thoughts.
Acting in a TV series? Jiang Wei paused for a moment.
Although he has recorded a lot of programs, Jiang Wei has never appeared in the TV series, to be honest, Jiang Wei actually wants to make a TV series.
It's just that the situation is different now, he still has a teaching task, in one, and he doesn't have a TV series he likes.
At the beginning of the year, Wang Luo gave Jiang Wei four songs, saying that they were going to be used in this TV series, and according to those four songs, Jiang Wei had already guessed that it should be a costume drama. And the protagonist in the play should be an emperor.
Later, because of work, and Wang Luo never mentioned this matter again, Jiang Wei never mentioned it again.
However, occasionally, Jiang Wei will still guess who the protagonist of this TV series is.
After all, there is a theme song there, and there is only one emperor who fits this theme song.
Needless to say, the Qin Dynasty is definitely impossible. In the case of the Han Dynasty, there is some possibility that Emperor Wu of Han, who left the greatest influence on later generations. Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, Emperor Wei Xiaowen Yuan Hong, Emperor Wen of Sui Emperor Yang Jian, Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, Kangxi, and Qianlong Emperors are all possible, but they can't be sure, and they forgot about it later.
"Teacher Jiang, this is the script, if you agree, your role will be Liu Qi, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty." Wang Luo handed the script to Jiang Wei and said.
Playing the emperor is not something that anyone can play casually, the actor himself must have the domineering spirit of the emperor, and at the same time need to have a kind temperament.
If there is only domineering, it becomes Qin Shi Huang. If there is no domineering, then it will become Qing Guangxu, and the two are completely different.
And Jiang Wei, who has been a top red singer and has stood on the podium for many years, is obviously very suitable for this role. Because his temperament is very consistent.
"Emperor Han Jing?" Jiang Wei was stunned.
However, after taking over the script, I somewhat understood. Because there are four big characters written on the script, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
This means that the protagonist of this play is Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, not Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty.
Jiang Wei, who has never acted in a TV series, left the country as an emperor for the first time, and Jiang Wei's heart was a little excited. Although he is already a lot old, on the outside, Jiang Wei still looks calm, and it seems that nothing has happened.
Roughly flip through the script, because everyone's script is different. What Wang Luo gave to Jiang Wei was the script of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, so Jiang Wei naturally looked like he had ten lines at a glance.
In about half an hour, Jiang Wei finished reading the entire script. Although I didn't read it carefully, with Jiang Wei's understanding of that period of history, the script was still relatively reliable.
Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty spent his life in forbearance. He endured countless humiliations at this time, and wanted to go to war with the Huns many times, but in the end he endured it.
In the end, through the savings of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty left a huge family property, which could be used for him to fight a protracted war.
In the script, just because he is the emperor, he does not add some halo to him. even deliberately depicted the incident of his humiliation, which is a TV series that can be regarded as a true history.
At least after reading Emperor Han Jingdi's script, Jiang Wei thinks so.
"How many sources did you refer to when writing this script?" Jiang Wei asked.
It is mainly based on the "Records of the Historians" and the "Book of Han", with reference to some other wild historical records in the middle. Seek common ground while respecting differences. Wang Luo replied.
Jiang Wei nodded secretly, "Historical Records" is defined as the words of a family, and "Book of Han" is the official history of the Han Dynasty. But from a historian's point of view, the events recorded in the Records of the Historians are more credible than those in the Book of Han.
In one, the "Historical Records" was originally to be handed down as an official history, but because it angered Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the end, it had to be branded as a family.
If we seek common ground while reserving differences from those same envoys, then we will basically be able to restore the things of the past. After all, sometimes, what is recorded in the wild history is the clearest and most accurate.
Just like now, the official history left by the country is far less true than the life deeds recorded by ordinary people. For example, the country says that this place is very rich, and everyone has food to eat and money to spend. However, the life stories of the people recorded that their families could not open the pot for three days when they were poor, and how many people in the village starved to death every year.
In this case, if there are a large number of similar records, then generally speaking, such records will prevail, supplemented by the official history of the state.
"Okay, I'll play this role." After thinking twice, Jiang Wei directly agreed to Wang Luo.
"And your course for the second half of the year?" Wang Luo asked.
"Hehe, after so many years of teaching the students, it's nothing to take a semester off, the school will agree." (To be continued.) )
