That's right, Yu Feihong is here to pit Chu Qing, and it is especially a group pit.

It is said that those who are familiar with the entertainment industry know that there is an old man gang in the capital, the core character is Zhao Baogang, the spiritual leader is Wang Shuo, the acting role is Uncle Ge, the talent is Jiang Wen and Feng Xiaogang, the appearance is Chen Zhiming, and the behind-the-scenes boss is Zheng Xiaolong.

In fact, there is also a Ye Jing, that is, the chicken thief who wore a torn cotton jacket in "Party A and Party B", lying on the loess kiln and hoping for the national army to rescue him - but he broke it later.

In addition, Wang Zhiwen, a representative of the Shanghai faction, and Zhang Guoli, a representative of the Sichuan faction, are also very close to this group. Coupled with Zhang Fengyi, You Yong, Liu Zhenyun, Sun Honglei and other marginal figures, they formed a gang of old men who can occupy half of the country, and they are proud of the entertainment industry with a bigwig attitude.

According to tradition, there will be a muse in any male circle, commonly known as a group pet. And the group pet of the Old Men's Gang used to be Gong Li, and now it is Xu Jinglei.

Of course, this is the open side, but there is actually a hidden goddess, which is Yu Feihong.

"Love Has an Afterlife" is adapted from the novel "Ginkgo Ginkgo Ginkgo", and she came up with this idea in the late nineties, when Wang Shuo suggested "You might as well shoot it yourself!" ”

So, she began a preparation period of nearly ten years, from learning to write scripts, drawing storyboards, to directing skills and lens use, just a little bit of pondering, and finally completed the draft in 05.

Then it is to find investment, Yu Feihong will not talk about it, he can only tell stories to others over and over again, and he also reminded frankly that "the box office may not be too good".

For more than a year, it has scared away N investors, and it is easy to find the owner, but the other party is unwilling to pay so much money. In the end, she put the house on the line, but it was still not enough.

But it doesn't matter, she has a very good group of relatives and friends. Wang Shuo and Jiang Wen made suggestions, and Yan Geling and Zhao Zhao helped to check the checks, and they were most surprised. She also has a relationship with Xu Laowei - when "Love Has an Afterlife" was in the later stage, Xu Ke heard that she couldn't compress the length of the film, and she deliberately went to the editing room to guide.

And Jiang Wen's idea of these rotten people is very simple, just one sentence: Find that grandson!

……

Chu Qing felt very amazing, there were many people who came to the scene to make an appointment, and it was the first time he had encountered the big truth of "only if you nod, I can get an investment of 40 million, otherwise I only have 10 million".

When a script is completed and the intention is to shoot, the employer pays the director's coffee and the actor's cast. For example, make a comedy. If you invite Deng Chao to come, it may only be 20 million, and if you invite Zhou Xingxing to come, it may soar to 70 million.

It is not that Zhou Xingxing's salary is worth 50 million, but the joint effect of personal value.

So after Chu Qing heard what she said, she felt that the other party was very interesting, and said with a smile: "I'll read the script first, you drink tea." ”

"Okay, thank you."

Yu Feihong said three words. Really hold the cup and drink it in small sips.

"Heh......"

He smiled secretly again, lowered his head and opened the script:

This story takes place in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, and there is a pair of brothers who are the leaders of a gang of horse thieves, and the younger brother is named Ah Ming. is also the male protagonist. One day, he met a woman, Ah Jiu, and liked it in his heart, so he directly snatched back the stockade.

Ah Jiu seems to hate him very much and has been silent. Even if the two got married, it didn't get better. Ah Ming is not discouraged, he just wants to resolve the other party's resentment with sincerity.

After a year like this, Amin suddenly found out. No matter how hard you try, you can't change the status quo. Disheartened, he chose to become a monk.

Ah Jiu followed inexplicably, lived in a dilapidated house outside the temple, and cooked tea for him every day. Another day, his brother was ambushed and fled to the temple, where he was seriously wounded and died. Immediately after, another group of horse thieves surrounded the temple, and the leader was none other than Ah Jiu's brother.

The parents of the two siblings were killed by Amin's brother, and they endured humiliation for many years to avenge today. But Ah Jiu has fallen in love with Ah Ming, insists on seeking death, and promises: We will see you again in the next life.

Later, during the Republic of China, a couple moved here, and the wife was exactly what Ah Jiu looked like. And under the ginkgo tree in the temple, Ah Ming, who has become a ghost, has been waiting for fifty years.

“……”

Chu Qing slowly put down the notebook, and Yu Feihong stared without blinking.

In the middle of the sound, he spoke: "I like the story very much, but there is too much unnecessary foreshadowing, and the places that can provoke conflicts or coherent plots are brushed aside, especially the plot of Ah Ming's monkhood, which is too abrupt. ”

After a pause, he added: "To put it simply, it is not easy to read. ”

"Then what do you mean......" Yu Feihong asked.

"The front is too peaceful, the quiet and beautiful sense of the picture and the dramatic conflict are not contradictory, Ah Ming must have reasonable logic before becoming a monk, and the sentence 'The tea is cold, I'll go and renew it for you', the number of occurrences is too frequent, and you will feel very deliberate."

He spoke very politely and respectfully, there are not many filmmakers who are willing to work hard these days, let alone a girl. Oh, I'm sorry, the person on the other side is not young, but whoever sees it will be amazed, the charm of a thirty-six-year-old and the eyes of a sixteen-year-old.

“……”

Yu Feihong is a very stubborn person, he was silent for a while, stroked his hair, and said with a smile: "Then I'll go back and think about it, we'll talk about it another day, thank you for your suggestion." ”

Then, there was no then, she flashed people directly. Chu Qing was quite surprised, which was also a little bit more reasonable.

Twenty days later, Yu Feihong came to him again.

This woman has her own insistence, and the foreshadowing in front has not been deleted, but has added some details of the relationship between the male and female protagonists, which seems to be more gentle, and the character portrayal is also a lot clearer.

The part of Ah Ming's ordination has been changed, at least logically to convince the audience, and the sentence "The tea is cold" is only the first and last sentence, and the ending is more explosive.

Chu Qing watched it carefully twice, thinking that it was within the range of his acceptance, so he nodded on the spot and set the salary at 4.8 million, which is simply humanistic care.

Yu Feihong didn't hide his emotions at all, but kept saying: "I hope it will be able to start in early summer next year, because the azaleas are blooming just right." ”

And then he laughed too, which was probably a fun experience.

…………

At the end of August, the 64th Venice Film Festival opened.

Li Press, Jia Zhangke, and Jiang Wen were all present, and Lao Jiang also showed affection to Zhou Yun, who had just given birth. Among the several Chinese-language films, the first to appear was "Lust and Caution", which held two media screenings on Lido Island.

You know, the United States gave this film a rating of NC-17, which was quite surprising at first, but after watching it, you will understand. There are a total of six mating scenes in the film, the camera movement, the realism of the performance, absolutely beyond imagination, even the well-informed foreign reporters are secretly speechless.

The term "graphic" is the most advanced word that can be used for cinematic depictions.

And the newcomer enabled by Uncle Eucalyptus has also been unanimously recognized by the media, whether it is playing mahjong, singing minor keys, speaking dialects and other superficial skills, or the sense of calmness presented in the interaction with Liang Chaowei, it is called beyond imagination.

In comparison, Lao Jiang's "The Sun Also Rises" is not highly evaluated, and I can't understand it.

In a blink of an eye, it was the closing ceremony, which was September 8th.

Li Zhao won the Golden Lion Award again, and achieved the triple championship of Chinese directors of "Broken Arm Mountain", "The Good Man of the Three Gorges", and "Lust and Caution". Jiang Wen and Lu Le got nothing, but Jia Zhangke won the Best Documentary Award in the Horizon Unit with "Useless".

Brad Pitt won the actor * for the first time, and Kate the Great Demon won the actress crown with the reversal of "I'm Not Anywhere".

The domestic media was in a commotion again, Chu Qing ignored it completely, except for sending a text message to Uncle Eucalyptus to congratulate him, he only cared about the release date of "Lust and Caution" in Hong Kong, so that he could take his daughter-in-law to watch it well.

At the same time, "Drunk Gold Fans", which has been nested in the southwest for nearly six months, was completed ahead of schedule.

On the day of the dinner, the whole crew cried a lot, it was too hard, too difficult, and there were more than 600 scenes in Fan Xiaoye alone, you can imagine how heavy this drama is.

The ability is all forced, Gao Xixi has gained experience in big productions, and Wu Xiubo, Tang Wei, Wang Likun and others have also benefited a lot.

The craziest is still Fan Xiaoye, who debuted for 11 years, and finally got a complete and down-to-earth cool. In the later stage of filming, she was a little in a trance whether she was Fan Bingbing or Tian Peizhi, that feeling, that kind of viewing herself and others, it seemed to be completely different.

The big drama is the battlefield, and the good role is the whetstone, which is called rebirth.
