Chapter 983: At least an Oscar nomination
This is a small conference room that Yang Yichen prefers, and some adjustments have been made at this time, specifically for this script creation. "Words * love * first * hair"
To friends, to friendly acquaintances, Yang Yichen has always been the most sincere way to treat people, I can pay a little more, this is the same as his donation mentality, I now get a qiē, is my own efforts, but also to have a grateful heart, without affecting their mood, pay more, not a loss, is a blessing.
It is said to be a small conference room, that is only for the company's large conference room, medium-sized conference room, in fact, it is not small at all, there are more than 100 square meters, it is still the pattern of the normal conference room, the table is lowered by more than ten centimeters as a whole, in order to cooperate with the conversion from the chair to the sofa, each sofa has a separate small table on the right hand side, the length and width can be stretched, ashtray, water, fruits, snacks and dried fruits, a product will be adjusted according to some habits of the person who sits.
A small performance stage, the rest of the electrical equipment in this room is not lacking, the table is a lifting LCD screen, the sofa also has a certain massage function, just opposite the conference room is the bathroom, the company's staff dormitory apartment, specially vacated more than a dozen rooms for these people to rest temporarily, every day there are special cars and special security personnel accompanied, according to the taste of each, from the hotel to the company, here are even detailed arrangements for each meal, before the other party does not take the initiative to try Chinese food, Arrange exactly according to the other person's eating habits.
Early in the morning, everyone gathered in the brother group, both sides were actually in a relatively calm mood, the outside world was very curious about the way the crew was formed, they were relatively calm, and they had no objections to the arrangement of this matterreads(); Waiting for you to love me.
Actors from Hollywood, who are accustomed to and adapt to being a pure actor. A film contract is signed, as long as the other party executes it in accordance with the contract, during this period. They all took it for granted from the crew's arrangement, and there was a special plane to pick them up and drop them off in Huaxia. There are also business activities arranged by the brother group, and they are very happy to be able to earn extra money.
Actors from China don't dare to say that they are pilgrimage, but for these people, Hollywood's real first-line movies have their own place, and they are all more serious, don't look at Cheng Long has a peak moment. In fact, he himself knows that action actors in Hollywood, opportunities are important, and it is even more important to seize opportunities, and cooperate with the brother group, on the surface, it is still to help, but in fact, when Yang Yichen and Ang Lee talked to him about the script, he was also very interested, and his acting skills have not been really recognized for so many years, and now there is such a play. The story is very good, but to present it perfectly, it requires the actors to show extraordinary strength, and to present more things with acting and filming without confusing the audience. In this way, all the plots are perfectly presented within the allotted time.
A drama of spelling acting.
Of course Cheng Long is interested, so he came very indifferently, everyone's mentality is actually similar, whether it is for Chinese movies at the big level, or at the small point of creating a chance for himself, it is a good thing to come here, and now he is cooperating with Yang Yichen, and he can't talk about the cooperation, nor can he talk about losing his identity. Everyone pushed him to the position of leading the Chinese art world forward, and he also deserved it. The achievements of the past few years are obvious to all, and the whole process seems to be stagnant and undestructive in the eyes of some people who don't know much. Only those who really understand have to give a thumbs up and praise Chenzi for doing a good job.
Step by step, a little down-to-earth, every time the foundation will be laid and then move forward, open the door little by little, after you go in, you can also let the people behind you come in, as a senior, no matter what you think in your heart, the posture on the surface is harmless, we must support the juniors to take the last journey, do their best.
Of course, this movie can't mention this, the whole script doesn't plan to find actors in China at all, Ang Lee was a bad guy, in the face of media interviews, he bluntly said that this film's promotion of freedom and equality is destined to be a script more suitable for the West, in the East, freedom and equality are two things to put in quotation marks first, and then to obey the individual to the collective, there is no way to talk about individual freedom and equality being respected, and the film will only let the audience see the image of the protagonist in a broad sense from cowardice to power-evil-evil, according to the consistent topic of Huaxia, this is not a movie that leads people to goodness, the congenital soil is insufficient, there is no way, and it is always customary to be crowned with the purpose of movies to educate people.
Ang Lee said bluntly, this movie originally planned to find actors in Hollywood, and finally Yang Yichen mentioned yì, now the concept of the global village has been proposed, and there are more and more oriental faces in Western countries, this time we don't look for actors from other Asian countries, at least our own actors, if people are willing to come, we sit together and study it, it's always good.
The actors from the East and the West gathered together, everyone was greeting each other from the door, and after sitting down, they were slowly getting familiar with and understanding, observing others and understanding each other, the most unlucky actor present was Liang Chaowei, he actually spoke quite good English, but in front of these people, he really needed a translator behind him many times to help him understand some quick sentences.
If in terms of awards, the biggest coffee present is Matthew McConaughey, the Oscar, although everyone does not say that the Oscar is the highest film award, it is customary in private that the Oscar is an award that a filmmaker can only get when he goes to the extreme.
Bale's superhero actor, Cate Blanchett's Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, Alan Akin's Best Supporting Actor nomination, Cheng Long's peak moment high box office, these people sit together, with the platform provided by Yang Yichen, everyone is very casual, the age of the people present and the qualifications of the film industry, except for Ashley Greeney, are enough to talk about movies and scripts at a high level.
Although Yang Yichen is the master, he still gave director Ang Lee absolute control over the scene, he sat between Bell and Cate Blanchett, where Matthew McConaughey, who was more familiar with him, also sat with the old man Alan Akin, chatting from time to time to the friendship of the landlord, and the rest of the people did not need special care, sitting there either reading the script, or sitting in his place drinking tea or coffee reads(); If you don't scum, you won't die (entertainment industry).
Li An sat at the top of the arc, and after everyone greeted each other politely, he spoke first: "The script has been sent to everyone, there is nothing else to do today, everyone reads the script throughout, what is the need, we have service staff here, freshly ground coffee, top red wine, the best Brazilian cigars, oh, sorry, if there is no smell of smoke present, our smoking friends will try to smoke a little less, you can also change the position close to the window, the window behind us will always be open, and the exhaust system will also be opened, It may be necessary to fight together for at least ten days, and it is best to say in advance if you have any special needs, and we will coordinate and solve them. ”
Speaking of this, Li An paused, looked around, and did not find that there was a desire to speak in a person's eyes, Kate also raised her hand, holding a lady's cigarette in her hand and signaled, indicating that she was smoking.
"You can rest at any time, what you want, you can contact the service staff at any time, our big boss is not a stingy person, everyone has seen it, there is a button in front of the side of the small table next to you, it is silent, but it will be directly transmitted to the instrument in the hands of the rest service staff at the door, he will come to your side, you don't have to worry about affecting others and embarrassed to speak. Drink and eat, in short, what do you need, you can speak, the amplification device on the table is adjusted, the sound will not be very loud but will be clearly transmitted to everyone's ears, what do you want to eat at noon, please think about it, tell the service staff directly, do you have any questions? If not, let's start looking at the script, this time the shooting, I think it's different for everyone, it's not the one you're completely familiar with, I hope you can really have a thorough understanding of the whole script, maybe your role may only be a few minutes, but in my experience, if you don't know enough about the script, you will not be able to control the role you want to play. Every role in this room, no matter how many scenes, I want to say that if you want to interpret it well, you must be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Individual Actor. ”
Ang Lee's last sentence was a loud sound, and everyone's eyes released their own sharp gaze.
Every role has reached the level of an Oscar nomination? Isn't that too big?
Ang Lee didn't say much, just made a gesture of please, signaling everyone to watch the script, the storyboard script you saw before, you will feel that the character is very difficult, but when you connect with the whole script, you will know how difficult it is.
How hard is it?
Two sentences can be closely described.
The whole script has changed from Cheng Dù, who made Ang Lee and Yang Yichen feel good enough, to mediocre, and only needs to restore the plot of less than 130 minutes to about 250 minutes according to the content contained in the entire script.
Ang Lee, as a director, like all actors, will make this script into a bad movie that is completely incomprehensible if it is not filmed perfectly enough, and in order to make it good enough to become a good film that everyone expects, the director and the actors must fill the compressed content into the lens controlled by the director and the performance controlled by the actor in a way that everyone can understand.
Instantly, as a group of good actors, everyone lowered their heads and paid attention to the script in their hands, and soon, they were attracted by the script, not so novel that they were intoxicated like reading a good book, but as an excellent actor, they saw its unique charm from the words of this script.
This story, this script, is crazy enough, a few pages have been turned, the story is so compact that none of the scenes are mediocre excessive, how the director adds a lot of content to the excessive shots, that is what he directs, involving the actors, at least as far as the eye can see, all the scenes, all the scenes, are all heavy scenes, and just reading the script can make the people present feel attractive, in a big vernacular, this story is interesting.
