Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Many years later, Chu Qing always remembered that not too hot afternoon, which was the first time he met Zhou Gongzi.
caLL his is Lao Jia, and half an hour later, Chu Qing called back.
Lao Jia's voice on the other side of the microphone looked tired, even more tired than when he was in Berlin.
"Lao Jia, what's the matter?" Chu Qing asked.
"Come out for dinner tomorrow."
"Okay."
Chu Qing knew that of course it wasn't just for dinner, Lao Jia didn't have many friends and they were fixed, most of them were contemporaries or seniors in the film academy. After returning from Berlin, he often introduced them to Chu Qing.
Chu Qing knew Lao Jia's kindness, and it was inconvenient to refuse, he had never heard the names of these people, and after getting along, he always felt that they were not real. is like a group of unreliable patients, who are obviously in the quagmire, not thinking about how to get rid first, but are full of fantasies about movies and the future all day long.
He wondered how Lao Jia could get together with them, obviously two completely different concepts. Lao Jia also loves fantasy, but is more down-to-earth, so he succeeded.
The next afternoon, Chu Qing met Lao Jia at the door of a restaurant.
What surprised him was that the store he chose this time was still of such a grade, not the kind of restaurant where there were more than a dozen sets of tables and chairs inside, and a group of people were noisy and shouting that they could even see the spittle stars clearly.
Chu Qing sat in the private room on the second floor, tilted his head to look at the large glass window on the side, facing the street outside, and couldn't help asking, "Who will come over later?" ”
Jia Zhangke held the menu that was half the size of his body and ordered, and said: "I'm a senior, and there is a drama to start filming recently, and there is a lack of a leading actor." ”
Chu Qing understood, and couldn't help but say, "I still want to rest for a while." ”
Lao Jia stared at the menu, didn't bother to look at him at all, just said, "He has a good play." ”
Chu Qing poured him tea, smiled, and didn't speak again.
Some friends don't even have to say thank you.
Ten minutes later, the door of the private room was pushed open, and two people entered. The man looks like he is in his thirties, with an inch head, black and thin. The woman is very young, small, and her eyebrows are full of agility.
Lao Jia hurriedly stood up and greeted him, and Chu Qing also stood up and moved the chair away for the little girl.
"Thank you."
Her voice was low, a little hoarse.
didn't need Lao Jia's introduction, the thin black man stretched out his hand first and said, "Hello, my name is Lou Ye." ”
Chu Qing shook hands with him and said, "My name is Chu Qing." ”
The little girl also said on the side: "My name is Zhou Xun." ”
Chu Qing looked at her, both of them inadvertently raised their right hands, and then put them down, frozen, not knowing whether to shake hands with each other, or whether they should take the initiative to reach out first.
Zhou Xun chuckled and stretched out his little hand. "Hello. ”
Chu Qing gently shook her fingertips and smiled, "Hello." ”
…………
According to the initial design, Chu Qing originally thought that he would accept an audition.
But Lou Ye didn't seem to have this meaning at all, it seemed like he was just having a meal, as if he was just a few friends getting to know each other.
Chu Qing thanked Lao Jia for his kindness, but he was not so hungry and thirsty, and when he saw a director, he begged to stick it in vain.
He and Zhou Xun didn't talk much, mainly listening to the other two people nagging, both of them with their chins on their chins, seemingly careless, but they were pulling vegetables into their mouths at a very fast frequency.
Sometimes when I hear something boring or interesting, I look at each other tacitly, see the smile in each other's eyes, and then pick up the wine glass and knock it lightly, and take a sip.
"You still don't believe it?" Lou Ye asked.
Lao Jia shook his head and said, "No." ”
He's been busy with the trial lately, and he thought that he had won all the awards in Berlin, so he should always pay attention to it. I didn't know that I ran two more times, and there was not even a sound over there.
Lou Ye said: "I think you better stop and stop, I know those people too well, it's no fun!" ”
He graduated from the film academy in the first year, at the same time as Wang Xiaoshuai, and later met Jia Zhangke. These sixth-generation generations seem to have a good relationship, no matter which year or session, they can get together a channel at the end, and they are in a group.
Lou Ye is a leader in the sixth generation, not only because of his old age and seniority, but also because he is the first group of people to make movies. When Jia Zhangke, Lu Xuechang and others were still digging in the soil for their first feature film, Lou Ye had already made two movies, although they were also banned.
At that time, he was just like Lao Jia, he had to run once a day as if he was going to work, he had a lot of dealings, and he knew the Tao inside, so he persuaded Lao Jia.
Jia Zhangke actually knew it in his heart, but he was unwilling, and when he heard that he had made a glass of wine, he rubbed his face again, and said, "I understand, I understand." ”
He sighed and asked, "What's wrong with your play?" ”
Lou Ye also shook his head and said, "Naian wants to invest, but I can't let her take the risk alone, so I want to find out if there are other funds." ”
Nai An is a woman, she used to be an actor, and later opened a small film and television company by herself, and she has been friends with Lou Ye for many years.
He wanted to see if he could bring in other parties to invest in it, so as to share the risk of Nai'an, after all, this kind of literary film does not eat the box office, so he can only rely on winning awards and then selling it to other cities. If a small company in Naian can't afford it, it is easy to go bankrupt.
However, looking at Lou Ye's expression, the matter of finding funds is not going well.
At this time, he seemed to suddenly remember, took out the book from his bag, handed it to Chu Qing, and said, "Qingzi, you take a look first." ”
Chu Qing took it and took a look, and the title page was printed with the name - "Suzhou River".
He turned the first page and casually asked, "Have you seen it?" ”
Of course, he wasn't asking Lou Ye, he was asking Zhou Xun.
Zhou Xun nodded and said, "I've seen it." ”
The script is thinner than "Xiao Wu", and there are very few lines, Chu Qing flipped through it, and now there is often a blank space, puzzled: "What is this?" ”
Zhou Xun saw the place he pointed at and said, "This is the narrator." Then he changed his tone in a very low voice, and blocked it with his hand, and said, "The director hasn't thought about it yet." ”
Chu Qing blinked and said, "Is that the photographer's narration?" ”
"Yes."
At this table, there are four people, as if two worlds are separated. Lou Ye and Lao Jia were both sitting on the side, one more bitter than the other, discussing some topics that they couldn't understand at all.
Chu Qing and Zhou Xun were sitting inside, talking about the script, basically Chu Qing was asking, and Zhou Xun was answering.
"This photographer ......"
After reading the script quickly, Chu Qing didn't understand something he didn't understand, and asked: "Does he not have to show his face, and he doesn't have any movements, only lines?" ”
Zhou Xun said: "Well, yes, the director said that it was called, it was called ......"
In her characteristic earnest and slightly stammering tone, she said, "It's called first, yes, first-person narration." ”
"First-person storytelling?"
Chu Qing was a little confused, looking at the other party's face, he was also a little confused.
Well, neither of them went to school much.
Chu Qing flipped through the script again, and said uncertainly: "Is it just, um, like this?" ”
He gestured his eyes and said, "For example, I am the photographer, and then, and then my eyes are like a lens, and what the lens captures is equivalent to what I see?" ”
Zhou Xun blinked, thought about it very seriously, and nodded: "Well, it should be like this." ”
Chu Qing smiled, suddenly leaned back, leaned back on the chair, and asked her, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Zhou Xun was stunned and looked at him curiously.
Chu Qing also looked at her and continued to ask, "What's wrong?" You speak. ”
A strange smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Xun's mouth, and he casually picked up the cigarette that Lou Ye had placed on the table, took out one, put it in his mouth, lit it, and then gently spit out a puff of smoke.
She just didn't speak, just put one arm on the table, just leaned forward, just looked reluctant and hesitant.
Chu Qing crossed his arms and said nonchalantly, "We're finally in trouble, aren't we?" ”
He shook his head slightly and said, "Okay! ”
Then, in a casual and cold voice, he said, "Shall we break up now, or will we wait for *after sex?" ”
Xu is two of the words were too shocking, and Lao Jia and Lou Ye, who were chatting with each other, were shocked and instantly came back to their souls, and they all turned their heads to look at them.
I saw Zhou Xun take another puff of cigarette, and wisps of white smoke came out of her mouth, rising and blocking her little face. Behind the smoke were a pair of stunned eyes that hid their anger.
Her eyes are big and bright, Chu Qing has seen many little girls with big eyes, like Zhao Wei, Lin Xinru and her own girlfriends. However, their eyes were either dilated or empty, and no one could compare to the little girl in front of them in terms of radiance and subtle changes.
Zhou Xun stared at him with these eyes for a few seconds, and then stretched out his right hand and picked up the tea cup on the table, making a gesture.
Seeing this, Chu Qing stood up suddenly, stepped back, scraped the table, and made a "bang".
The scene they made was too big, Lao Jia frowned, and couldn't help but say, "What are you doing?" Sit down! ”
Chu Qing sat down silently and secretly rolled his eyes at Zhou Xun.
Zhou Xun also hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, let's have fun." ”
Lou Ye looked at the two young men, grinned unconsciously, turned to Lao Jia and said, "It's okay, let's talk about ours." ”
When the two of them turned around and continued the cold topic, Chu Qingcai whispered: "Are you really splashy?" ”
Zhou Xun smiled and said, "Of course it's really splashy!" ”
Chu Qing was depressed, but fortunately he was prepared, because the script clearly stated: Meimei picked up the water cup and splashed him on the face......
It is said that Chu Qing can remember such a plot in a short period of time, or because of that sentence.
"Shall we break up now, or will we wait until we have sex?"
The coldness and mechanics of this sentence gave him a great shock, and he watched this small plot three times over and over again.
Lou Ye is a very standard literary and artistic young man, not as plain and touching as Jia Zhangke, nor as sharp and obscure as Wang Xiaoshuai, he can be said to be the most literary and artistic one in the sixth generation.
The same is true of the script he wrote.
Chu Qing can't understand the kind of self-exile in the flashiness of reinforced concrete in the book, and then generously buy cheap touches and empty amazement, but he knows that "a qiē will not last forever", and enjoys temporary satisfaction in the love symbol with peace of mind.
He was even vague about the relationship between the four people in the book, but that didn't stop him from wanting to act in this play.
Play the man named Motor.
