Chapter 137: The Names and the Turtles
Sanlian, among the publications that can be taken out in China to pretend to be forced, is quite an alternative.
It always likes to mix news and culture with narration, which seems to be very petty and sensational. In fact, its definition is very simple, it is talking about a concept: the outlook on life.
Since the resumption of publication in 1993, Sanlian was very anxious at the beginning, operating at a loss for many years, until 2001, when it changed from a semi-monthly magazine to a weekly magazine, and found out the balance between face and lining, it began to make a profit, and the brand became more and more popular.
Of course, it's also a high force now. Its predecessor was the "Life Weekly" presided over by Mr. Zou Taofen during the Anti-Japanese War.
Bian Zhihong, joined in 97, is currently the most senior entertainment reporter of the weekly, mainly doing interviews and reviews on movies. Later, he changed his career to become a screenwriter, and his first movie book was co-authored, called "The City is Full of Golden Armor".
On the day Li Xiaowan helped Zhou Gongzi put up the flag, he was also on the scene and didn't ask any questions, he didn't like group interviews, and he sent a draft by himself, which was like criticizing the composition.
originally wanted to ask Zhou Xun to come out for an interview later, but he changed his mind again because he found a more interesting guy.
Actually, when he was in "Xiao Wu", he was very interested in this actor. However, due to the complaints of some people, the film was completely suppressed in China, and only a few indifferent small newspapers exposed sidebar news.
But "Suzhou Creek" is different, although it was not released, it was innocent, and it caught up with the media environment that fueled the flames, so it was artificially popularized.
This can't be simply represented, Lao Jia is lucky E, Lou Ye is lucky S, it can only be said that they have created their own creations, the latter has arrived, and the former still needs to be accumulated.
Bian Zhihong sorted out the information he had collected about Chu Qing. swept the four movies at a glance, plus "Platform", which is rumored to be being filmed...... Then, after sitting at the desk for a long time, I suddenly became excited.
From these fragmentary information, he sensed that behind this actor, a very interesting network of relationships has been formed.
He was still hesitating at first, Chu Qing alone couldn't support a big draft, but now he is completely relieved.
Because it's not just those directors standing behind him. Rather, it is a phenomenon of cinema that is spreading, a force of innovation that is constantly growing, and may even overturn tradition.
There's definitely something to do!
Bian Zhihong immediately submitted the topic, and the editor-in-chief Zhu Wei nodded in agreement, and specially assigned him additional manpower, a very capable rookie reporter.
is a little girl, named Meng Jing, and in the future, Yuan Lei of "Southern Weekly" will properly occupy the two positions in the entertainment circle. Jianghu people call "South Yuan and North Meng." β
β¦β¦
Chu Qing really hasn't been interviewed.
When he was filming and returning the pearl, reporters came to visit the class almost every day, and he hid far away. In the face of these people, he was naturally frightened. I don't know which sentence should tell the truth and which sentence should tell a lie, so I just avoid it.
In short, fear of trouble.
I want to decline this time. But the man said that he could come to Fenyang, and emphasized. It's a one-on-one interview. Chu Qing was slightly moved, people took out their sincerity directly, and if they took Qiao again, they would be too ignorant.
Lao Jia has no opinion, and he can also promote promotional videos.
The temperature in Fenyang at this time can already take off winter clothes, it is warm at noon, and it is still cool in the morning and evening. Inside a thin sweater, a hood jacket, this is the standard clothing.
Lao Jia doesn't seem to be able to see the actor's comfort, and the moth rises again, so he has to move a scene in summer to spring.
In the 80s, with the reform and opening up, the people urgently needed some fresh pastime and entertainment to enrich their lives.
Lao Song took more than a dozen people to run around, and the business was getting better and better, and even the miscellaneous ones had dozens of salaries. The means of transportation have been changed from tractors to second-hand liberation, and there is no longer a need to live in a greenhouse, and it has been upgraded to a small hotel.
Then, one night, Zhong Ping ran to Zhang Jun's room, and then the police came to check it.
It's not a room for two people to sleep in, it was called hooliganism at the time, a big deal! If you had been caught a few years ago, you would have to walk the streets with broken shoes.
The police separated the two men and induced confessions. Zhong Ping is firm, and he bites two people; Zhang Jun fucked up, was frightened by the police, and confessed honestly.
Even if it is love, there is a limit after all, every little thing, a little bit of accumulation, a little bit of gray, until one day, maybe the other party just inadvertently said something and did something......
It seems to be normal, but for myself, it is completely cold.
After returning to her hometown, Zhong Ping was gone, and no one knew where she went.
βActionοΌβ
At night, in front of the gray-green old house, Chu Qing was shirtless, with his clothes on his shoulders, holding a cigarette in one hand and a beer bottle in the other, standing sideways.
Liang Jingdong's shirt was open, revealing the red vest inside, and he was moving bricks.
There was a pile of coarse tiles and square bricks stacked under the wall, and he moved a few meters away again and again, smoking with wine, and roaring the most popular song of the moment:
"Cheng, Cheng, Genghis Khan! How many beautiful girls are willing to marry him! β
Before the start of filming, Liang Jingdong drank four bottles of beer, almost to the limit of sobriety, and at this time, the love broke out very appropriately.
The pronunciation of the words he spat out was completely non-standard, and his tongue, throat, head, and whole person were pierced with holes full of knives, slowly invading the cold.
Zhong Ping left, and Zhang Jun realized that he was so sad. He didn't know why he was moving bricks, maybe he just wanted to find something to do, maybe he didn't know what he was doing at all.
Chu Qing took a sip of wine from time to time, and there was still half of the bottle left, so he didn't dare to drink more, for fear of lying down. The amount of alcohol was not enough, and his acting skills came to make up, he stood in place, his body swayed slightly, smoking casually, his eyes did not follow the other party, but unconsciously stared at the pile of broken tiles.
When a friend is sad, will you really accompany the sadness?
A meal, a few bottles of wine, a table full of words of comfort that are not salty or light, and it will pass.
"Cheng, Cheng, Genghis Khan! How many beautiful girls ......"
Liang Jingdong shouted at the top of his voice, took off his shirt again, and the small vest looked even thinner. He stacked five bricks, got up and walked just two steps, stumbled, fell to the ground, staggered up, and continued to roar: "They are willing to be his brides!" β
Then. Chu Qing finally stepped away, picked up his clothes, hugged him, and said, "Go!" β
He grabbed his arm and pulled hard, and the two of them were unsteady on their feet, and they both fell to the ground. He should have gotten up immediately, but Liang Jingdong really drank too much, so he didn't move when he lay down, and his arms were still tightly wrapped around him.
Chu Qing couldn't really exert himself, and slowly moved his body. Seeing that he couldn't break free, the smoky wine kept spraying on his face, so he simply opened his mouth and shouted with him.
These people have been working together for a long time, and they have encountered too many emergencies, so they have calmed down, and they all believe that Chu Qing can go on peacefully.
Jia Zhangke really didn't shout to stop, he followed the crew present, wrapped in warm clothes. Forming a half-circle, looking at the two men, falling in front of the gray-green old wall, they roared together: "Cheng." Cheng, Genghis Khan! β
People always realize their own growth only after they have lost.
Helpless......
Bian Zhihong and Meng Jing set off in the morning and went to the provincial capital city first. Turning to Fenyang again, it was already dark when I arrived on the set, and I was just in time for this scene. Didn't bother. Gather around the crowd and watch quietly.
Rough, nostalgic, painful, intense, yet delicate...... They have the most direct impression of Jia Zhangke's film awareness and Chu Qing's performance.
"Over!"
Lao Jia shouted.
Chu Qing unceremoniously lifted Liang Jingdong and picked him up, and the drama manager hurriedly took the thick clothes and covered them on the two of them.
β¦β¦
"It's been a hard work, let's drink some water."
In the hotel room, Chu Qing poured a cup of tea for Bian Zhihong and said, "You see that you don't even eat, it's so far away, it's too much to go." β
"It's okay, we took a few bites in the car, and we're not too hungry." He laughed.
"Where's the little girl?"
"I'm interviewing Director Jia."
Although Meng Jing is a newcomer, his strength is absolutely reassuring, not to mention that the main purpose this time is Chu Qing. Bian Zhihong doesn't like to put several people together, it will be polite, false, and insincere, he likes to talk one-on-one.
"Oh." Chu Qing nodded, sat on the chair slightly cramped, and rubbed his thighs.
How do you start in this situation?
Don't look at how many movies he has filmed, and he has also made two trips to China, he has seen the world, but he has always felt very amazing for a creature like a reporter.
Bian Zhihong is also very fresh, he has interviewed many stars, newcomers, and veterans, and he has never seen anything like this. He opened the recorder and put it on the table, and said with a smile: "If there is anything you don't want to answer, you can sue me first." β
"Oh, no, it's all right." Chu Qingdao.
"Let's talk about it first, how you feel after you win the award?"
"Well, I didn't feel anything, I was a little surprised."
Bian Zhihong tilted his head and asked, "Are you sure it's surprise, not surprise?" β
"You want to!"
Chu Qing sat sideways at the table, her posture was very awkward, she always wanted to her legs, but she felt impolite and uncomfortable, and said: "If you finish filming a movie, and then after two years, your daughter-in-law will not sue you coldly and win the award, how do you feel?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Brother, can you play according to the routine? You slap yourself in the face!
Bian Zhihong silently revealed this topic, and asked: "Then how did you take over the filming of this movie?" β
"Lao Jia, it's Jia Zhangke, he recommended me to the Lou guide. Director Lou saw that it was okay, so he let me act. β
He jotted down the main points in the notebook, and then asked: "We often say that the fifth generation has the blood of the Yellow River flowing in its bones, but the sixth generation is a generation in the cracks, so these two directors belong to the sixth generation, what is the difference between your films and the previous movies?" β
Chu Qing blinked his eyes and said, "That, Teacher Bian, I don't read much, and my education is not high, if you ask this kind of question, I really can't answer it." β
He scratched his head and added, "Also, I haven't seen many movies." β
ββ¦β¦β
Well, Bian Zhihong instantly gave up the original plan, closed the interview book, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about you." β
"What do you say about me?"
"The audience is actually very curious about you, because it's like coming out of the ground, and no one knows what happened to you. For example, where is your hometown, what is your family situation, what kind of work have you done......" After he understood the basic attributes of this product, he abandoned his usual tone of cultural people and simply treated them as two friends.
"Ah, I can say that." Chu Qing still cocked his legs and said: "My hometown is in the northeast, I don't have a father or a mother, I went to the capital when I was a teenager, and I have done everything to deliver water, brush dishes, and pick up rags......"
"Lao Jia would ask me to make a movie, I didn't take it seriously. He said to give me 2,000 yuan, and I just went, just to get a job. But after the shooting, I can't tell how it feels, anyway, it's quite reluctant. β
"Later, I returned the pearl, uh......"
He was not stupid enough to explode the crew's material, so he said a word: "I am especially grateful to Mr. Li Mingqi, she taught me how to act and how to be a good actor." β
"Later, it was "Suzhou Creek", I didn't like the filming place, it was too noisy, so I thought about leaving quickly, but I couldn't bear it after filming."
Bian Zhihong stared at him without blinking, listening with great interest, and hurriedly answered: "Why do you keep saying that you are reluctant?" Have you thought about the reason? β
Chu Qing propped his chin, thought seriously for a while, and said slowly: "Maybe it's because it's all right." The director is right, the script is right, the actors are right, everything is right anyway, so it feels good. β
Bian Zhihong smiled, he couldn't tell what he couldn't understand.
"Zhou Xun said that "Suzhou Creek" is about three love stories, what do you think?"
Chu Qing licked his lips and said softly, "Agreed!" β
"Heh, many people know about your relationship with your girlfriend now, and they are also very envious. Do you think this is the love you want? β
"It's almost." He took a sip of water and said, "Actually, I really want to...... That is, I work all day during the day and go home at night, and then I cook, and after eating, the two of us watch TV, and then go to sleep. I like this kind of day, but now I'm too busy and I don't see each other very often. β
Bian Zhihong was slightly surprised and asked, "I understand everything else, but why are you cooking?" β
"Because she won't!" Chu Qing was also stunned. (To be continued......)
