Chapter 483: A script that surprised everyone
Tang Wenqing was born in the 70s, and he was a good actor at the beginning.
The era when Tang Wenqing just began to embark on the road of acting is not quite the same as now, that time was the time when the trend of literary and artistic films was re-rampant, but at that time, he was still able to stand out from many acting masters and won two Golden Dragon Award actors.
Tang Wenqing was able to get two awards for the best actor in that era, you can imagine how good his acting skills are......
The most important thing is that this guy first entered the film industry from comedy, but after acting in a lot of comedies, he won the actor by virtue of two literary movies with two personalities that are completely different from when he acted in comedy......
You can imagine how good this guy's ability is.
After all, there are too many people who started out in comedy, but after that, they were frozen to die in that role, and it was difficult to escape for the rest of their lives, and many times these things were very distressing.
Just like in another plane, in another plane, there are more well-known examples.
For example, "Wulin Gaiden" is for Sha Yi, Bai Zhantang's role made him, but it also ruined him, it was this role that made him enter thousands of households, and many people really liked him, but it was also this character who gave almost everything to him, no matter how you look at it, everyone always feels that he is still an old white ...... Later, when I saw the little overlord Sun Ce in "The New Three Kingdoms", I called him one by one......
is also the same as the people in "Love Love Apartment", their roles are popular, but if they perform in other TV series. Everyone still doesn't buy it very much, Zeng Xiaoxian is still Zeng Xiaoxian, and it is difficult to use other characters to set these people.
There's no way around it. A lot of people are usually stuck in a role, and it's hard to really get out of that role.
Especially comedy stars......
Even if it is a superstar like Stephen Chow, his acting career has reached its peak, but if he is allowed to play a sensational role, many people still can't accept it, at least they won't have the feeling of watching his comedies.
It's really hard to get out of the stereotype of a comedy character.
But Tang Wenqing did this, he jumped out of one role to another. A real transformation is complete.
After that, he suffered from intense depression because of something and received five or six years of continuous treatment before coming back. It's just that even if he makes a comeback, his acting skills are still there, and it may be because of the remnants of several years of depression, but he has become a unique melancholy temperament. Fascinating......
So Li Chencan saw Tang Wenqing's information. I know that this should be the best actor of Truman......
After all, in the original plan of Paramount's "Truman's World", although the movie's world view and setting are still creative, it is still a sad and melancholy story, but they still hope to make the movie as a comedy to some extent.
It was also thought that the movie was found to be golden. Carrey came over to play.
Gold. Carrey was the protagonist of "Strange Jack in Disguise" and started out as a comedy. After that, he came to play "Truman's World", all of which is very suitable for Tang Wenqing.
But he's now making a lot of people feel like he's close to half-recess. He rarely takes on films, maybe every two years, or even three or five years before he shoots a film.
In this way, it is really difficult to invite him to come over to act in a movie, and Li Chencan doesn't know if he can impress him.
Li Chencan temporarily gave many other things, and also began to let everyone start preparing for the filming of the movie.
The filming of the movie is not a simple matter, especially a war film like "Saving Private Ryan", it is even more difficult to shoot, and the preparation is also very detailed, although the movie "Truman's World" is a fashion film, but there are many things here that still need to be prepared.
Soon, everyone's preparations for filming have started in full swing, and it is estimated that after several months of preparation, it will be almost completed. The preparations for the film also went relatively smoothly.
Soon, the time came to April, the days flew by, and Li Chencan also met Tang Wenqing for the first time.
Tang Wenqing really reminded Li Chencan of the star master in another time and space, and he really felt the same way in some places, although he had many classic comedies on the screen, but they were relatively quiet people in real life.
This is especially true for people like Tang Wenqing, who can also suffer from depression.
Because he was worried that he would not be able to convince this guy, Li Chencan directly turned the first communication between the two into a direct meeting.
"Hello, Director Li." Tang Wenqing shook hands with Li Chencan very politely, and the tone in which he spoke was also very polite, Li Chencan nodded with a smile and said, "Teacher Tang, hello." ”
Although they are two different worlds, in the entertainment industry, the habit of calling others teachers is still common...... So I have to say that although there are some differences between the two worlds, people are really those people.
"Director Li, please take a seat." Li Chencan came to Tang Wenqing's house in person, so now Tang Wenqing asked him to sit down first, and Li Chencan did not shirk it, and sat directly on his bench.
Tang Wenqing's eyes have a very unique temperament, and this temperament even makes Li Chencan regret it a little...... Maybe it would feel better to let him play Chen Yongren, but now is not the time to think about that, he is mainly thinking about how to persuade Tang Wenqing to join his crew.
"Teacher Tang, you should be clear about my intention today, right?" Li Chencan asked straight to the point: "I have a movie now, I hope to get your starring, well, I have brought the script and the planning outline of the movie...... Would you like to take a look now? ”
Tang Wenqing glanced at Li Chencan, then nodded.
He is still very clear about Li Chencan, of course, not that he knows Li Chencan, but that he is very clear about Li Chencan's achievements and his movies. Especially the kind of innovative and wonderful ideas in "Infernal Affairs", which simply made him stunned, and even made Tang Wenqing himself a little regretful - it would be nice if he could also star in that film.
It's just that when the filming of "Infernal Affairs" officially started, he was busy with the promotion of another movie, so Li Chencan and the others did not find Tang Wenqing at that time.
Now that things have passed, Tang Wenqing is also curious enough about Li Chencan's new movie, he can feel like many people anyway, Li Chencan is definitely not a mediocre person.
His films, for sure, will not be mediocre.
"Okay, then I'll take a look at this!" There was already an unconcealable sense of expectation in Tang Wenqing's tone.
Li Chencan said: "You can watch slowly, I have a lot of time now." ”
Tang Wenqing also nodded casually, and began to read Li Chencan's filming outline and script and other things.
"Truman's World".
"Truman's world?" Tang Wenqing glanced at the name and felt a little strange, and then quickly began to read the outline of the script......
After really seeing the idea of the script outline, he was also stunned.
"This ...... How did this kid come up with this idea? Tang Wenqing really felt that he couldn't stay calm anymore, this idea was really great, so Tang Wenqing suddenly felt that many of his ideas had been subverted, and he now instantly had very complicated emotions for Li Chencan because of this idea, of course, among this emotion, there are more surprises.
I was amazed by Li Chencan's brain.
He also began to diverge in an instant, including a lot of things here......
However, now for him, he still attaches more importance to the development of the movie, so he immediately began to read the script outline, and after reading the script outline, he began to read the specific script again.
This specific script was placed in front of Tang Wenqing's eyes, originally Li Chencan was waiting next to him to give Li Chencan an answer as soon as possible, even if he said that he would think about it again, it was also an answer, but now he accidentally sank into the world of the script, and he no longer had time to say hello to Li Chencan and give him an answer.
When it comes to professional things, these people and Li Chencan will have the same trait, this trait is a sudden concentration, completely immersed in the world world that he is interested in, and the current Tang Wenqing is completely like this, he is already immersed in the world world he is interested in.
The more he read this script, the stronger the sense of resonance in his heart became...... The love for this character is also getting higher and higher.
Truman is a person who can really think of a lot of things, and the film form of this movie, as well as the plot conflict behind it, can make people think of many things about the real world in the process of watching the movie.
And Truman himself is a tragic figure...... In all fairness, if you are Truman, you are in his point of view...... When the whole process of growing up is exposed to everyone's eyes, and there is not a trace of anything on your body that belongs to your own privacy, I believe that if it is yourself, it will definitely be rampant ...... Truman, a tragic figure, also gave Tang Wenqing a huge resonance.
Originally, he planned to stop filming for another year, let alone shoot the next movie for a year, and he was determined to make a high-quality movie, and would rather slow down...... However, now looking at Li Chencan's script, his thoughts began to be slowly attacked, and gradually approached to disappear, and this script touched him too much, and it was far beyond his preconceived thoughts. (To be continued......)
