In the next few days, Li Yange and Mr. Zhao worked overtime to remake some soundtracks that he thought were flawed according to Zhang Yimou's ideas.

"Mr. Li has worked hard for you this time, and I am so grateful to have come all the way from Beijing to help." Zhang Yimou, who is in his thirties, does not have as many wrinkles on his face as he did later, but he has been working outdoors for a long time not long ago, and his dark skin after sun exposure makes him look much older than his peers.

Li Yange smiled modestly and said: "Director Zhang, I'm here to help, it's purely because you gave me the opportunity to come to the studio and follow Mr. Zhao to learn about film soundtracks!" ”

"Haha, it's still Yan Ge who can speak, Professor Du has accepted a good student." A look of joy appeared on Zhao Jiping's face, he spoke so steadily at a young age, and he had a very high talent for film scores, no wonder Professor Du, who had not accepted students for many years, even made an exception to accept a sophomore who was still studying in school.

"No matter what, the sample can be sent to the engraving on schedule, thanks to the help of Mr. Zhao and Mr. Li, I will be the east tonight, and everyone will not return if they are not drunk!"

As soon as he thought that the movie would be engraved and released next month, Zhang Yimou's heart seemed extremely excited, this was the first film he directed for the first time in the film industry for so many years, which was of great significance and made him gain a lot of things outside the movie.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yimou looked back at Gong Li, who was standing silently behind.

……

……

In the evening, a well-known restaurant in Xi'an.

There are a lot of guests in the box, some Li Yange knows, and some don't know, waiting for the waiter to serve the food, Zhang Yimou got up and introduced enthusiastically: "Teacher Li, let me introduce to you, this is the male protagonist of our movie, Jiang Wen, this is Ji Chunhua who plays the bandit Bald Three Cannons, this is Teng Rujun who plays Jiu'er's father, and this is the photographer Gu Changwei......"

When mentioning Gu Changwei, Zhang Yimou suddenly slapped his head, looked at Li Yange, looked at Gu Changwei again, and said with a smile: "I remember, Changwei told me before, and you knew Teacher Li before." ”

"Yes, I met Mr. Gu during the filming of Director Chen's "The Child King". Li Yange glanced at Gu Changwei, although he was still the same, he didn't know if he was exposed to the sun, it was darker than what he saw in Chen Kaige a few months ago.

Looking at Zhang Yimou's introduction here, Jiang Wen, who is bold by nature, watched the waiter serve the food one after another, immediately opened a pot of local wine, stepped forward to pick up Li Yange's wine glass and said, "Teacher Li, this is the first time we have met, we have to have a good drink." ”

Seeing that he poured wine into his cup, Li Yange didn't shirk it, and said with a smile: "I like Mr. Jiang's "Furong Town" very much, and I am fortunate to see it today, so I naturally have to have a good drink." ”

"Furong Town" can be said to be Jiang Wen's famous work, this year, with this movie, Jiang Wen won the Best Actor Award at the 10th Popular Hundred Flowers Awards, and also made this fledgling film newcomer for less than two years become a well-known cultural center director "Qin Shutian"!

This table of banquets was specially invited by Zhang Yimou to Mr. Zhao and Li Yange, so when he toasted and drank next, Li Yange was unlucky, his amount of wine was average, and Jiang Wen was the kind of person who likes to persuade wine, just like Huang Zhan, he will always find an opportunity to toast.

After a while, Li Yange was dizzy.

Seeing this, Zhang Yimou was also afraid that Li Yange would drink too much, so he hurriedly stopped Jiang Wen, who still wanted to continue toasting, and changed the topic: "By the way, Jiang Wen, I heard that you are about to star in a co-production?" ”

"Yes, a Sino-French co-production, the movie is called "Tears of a Sedan Chair", it's really strange to talk about this movie, there are actually two directors, one in France and one in ours, the director on our side is Zhang Nuanxin, and the director on the French side seems to be called Jacques Dorfmann."

Jiang Wen teased: "I don't know if I joined the crew, whether I listened to Director Zhang or was directed by the Dolphman." ”

"I heard that it wasn't filmed in China and France?" Zhang Yimou was stunned.

"It's shooting in two places, but both directors have to be there, this is the rule of the people above."

Jiang Wen pointed to the top of his head, Sino-foreign co-productions are still very strict, in order to be afraid of some unnecessary plots, so this time the filming of "Tears of the Flower Bridge" was co-directed by two directors who have never been seen before.

As soon as he heard the regulations of the people above, Zhang Yimou didn't ask anything more, he knew a little about the review of co-produced films, except for nude shots, many places are much stricter than in China.

Jiang Wen muttered to himself: "I don't know what is going on in France, speaking of which, I have never been abroad." ”

"France is a great place." Li Yange suddenly smiled and said: "When I went to Italy, I heard that France is a romantic capital, maybe Jiang Wen you can meet a passionate French girl over there." ”

"Haha, the French girl is enthusiastic, I've heard people talk about it before."

"I want to go to France to see this."

Everyone drank too much wine, and when they heard Li Yange's words, they couldn't help but ridicule.

Jiang Wen was also happy and said: "That relationship is good, speaking of which, I haven't seen what a foreign girl looks like, if I can really meet a passionate French girl......"

Seeing that Jiang Wen was going to say something about river crabs, and Gong Li was on the side, Zhang Yimou immediately snorted and said, "Teacher Li has also been to Italy?" ”

Li Yange just slowed down, and now the strength of the wine has passed, picked up the chopsticks and stuffed a peanut into his mouth: said vaguely: "Well, I went there a year ago." ”

"Yimou, let me tell you that Mr. Li is very powerful." Gu Changwei on the side is relatively familiar with Li Yange, and seeing that Zhang Yimou and everyone don't know Li Yange very well, he also took the initiative to talk about it.

"The soundtrack of "The Last Emperor" was made by you, Mr. Li?"

Zhang Yimou, including Mr. Zhao and others, were all surprised, everyone is a worker in the film industry, and naturally knows the Chinese-Italian-British co-production film "The Last Emperor" that caused a stir in Beijing last year.

Not to mention the first foreign film to enter the Forbidden City for filming, the shooting fund alone is as high as 20 million US dollars, which is something that these people dare not think.

Chen Kaige's "Child King" is only a hundred thousand.

Zhang Yimou's film is a little more, and it cost about more than 200,000 yuan.

This is still RMB, and if it is converted into US dollars, it will only be 70,000 or 80,000.

But as soon as "The Last Emperor" was released, it was 20 million, which was enough for Zhang Yimou to shoot hundreds of red sorghum.

Seeing that everyone was staring at him in surprise, Li Yange waved his hand modestly and said, "It's just a good luck that Director Bertolucci took a fancy to the music I composed." ”

"That's not just luck, you have to be strong." Teacher Zhao sighed, he thought that Professor Du had sent his proud disciple to come over to study, but who knew that Li Yange had already produced several movie soundtracks, and one of them was a very important Sino-foreign co-production.

"Teacher Li, I toast you." Zhang Yimou raised his wine glass and got up, he called Li Yange Teacher Li, which was mainly a polite statement, but now he is really admired.
