Chapter 118: Confused
Among the directors in the Hong Kong circle, Huang Jiacheng belongs to the kind of people who are hated by others, but have to be admired in their hearts.
Some people think he's insane.
And it's the kind that is terminally ill, but some people think he's a genius.
The investors gritted their teeth at him and wanted to slaughter him with a knife, but they had to admit that this product was of a standard.
The cycle of each film is so long that investors are desperate.
But every movie can be a big hit overseas......
He was very serious about films, serious to the point of exaggeration.
How so?
Zhou Yang was harsh when filming "Mine Bottom", right?
Compared with Huang Jiacheng, it is far behind, it is simply a small thing.
The name of his representative work is "Lost in the Forest", well, it is not the H movie that everyone imagines, but a modern urban literary film, reflecting the little bad things of urban men and women.
The shooting was quite good, and some of Yan Ying's teaching materials intercepted some of the clips in it.
However......
Can you imagine?
Other people can shoot urban movies that can be completed in two or three months, but Huang Jiacheng has been filming for more than a year......
The hearts of people and investors are gone.
Not only are investors being tossed to death, but so are the actors.
It was once rumored that when he was filming this movie, he felt that the expression of Shen Jiaxin, the Hong Kong sister who played the heroine, was almost meaningful, so he personally carried the camera and filmed Shen Jiaxin for a week......
Later, after the filming, the little girl felt as if she had a mental problem.
Can there be no mental problems?
No matter how you shoot under the camera, he frowns and thinks that you are shooting wrong, but he doesn't tell you what you didn't shoot right, in short, he thinks that you have a problem with your shooting, and you feel that you have shortcomings.
How does he feel, you ask?
He smiled and said he didn't know, in short, he just asked you to continue filming, endlessly reshooting, making you make all kinds of expressions, and then criticizing you all kinds of ......
Shen Jiaxin was filmed over and over again like this, and finally broke down and cried on the set, already seriously doubting that she couldn't act.
I finally got through it for more than a week, hey......
People suddenly pat your head, make you pose strangely, slap your hand, and then suddenly praise you for some reason, so that you feel that you can do it again.
Many years later, Shen Jiaxin recalled the behind-the-scenes events of the movie "Lost in the Forest", and she still had fear in her heart.
"I later learned that Director Huang didn't think the sunset on the set was beautiful, and he had been waiting for a beautiful sunset......"
"As for why I was asked to remake it over and over again?"
"He thinks I'm idle anyway, it's better than lying in bed and sleeping!"
"Oh, yes...... I later learned that the camera he was carrying was not open at all, and the whole time it was pretending to be tossed and tormented. ”
"You say this nerve is not nerve?"
"Also, I've been filming for more than a month, and I don't know what my script is...... The script changes almost every day, and the acting is different every day, and I feel like I'm schizophrenic! ”
“……”
In front of the media.
Shen Jiaxin bitterly recounted such an experience of cheating her father, and vowed never to cooperate with Huang Jiacheng in the future.
This girl is a psychopath!
Filming without a script?
Yes!
That's that exaggerated!
"The Lost Forest" has already been started, the hero and heroine don't know what to play, and this product often makes messy fake scripts, When you are familiar with the script, you feel that you are foolproof, when you confidently finish the lines with the heroine, people will coldly hand you another script, and then tell you that this script is wrong, that is, for you to learn to play.
Liang Jiawu, who later won the best leading role at the Venice International Film Festival with this movie, was depressed and had suicidal thoughts when he just finished filming this movie.
The same goes for Wu Zhenhong!
When this product came to invite the song, it was full of sincerity, and the money was also full of sincerity......
However......
"I want that kind of cool tune, you know? It's a cool tune! ”
"The kind of ...... that can ascend to heaven"
"And then there are chickens, ducks, and dogs barking in the song, and they're hilarious!"
"It's better to have that kind of river sound......"
What the hell is this mess?
Wu Zhenhong took over this job, and when he heard this request, the whole person was dumbfounded.
He's been in the circle for so long, and he's never seen anything like cerebral palsy......
He finally handed it to Huang Jiacheng after composing the music according to the script, and then this shit actually said that he had changed the script, and the original script was no longer filmed.
"I want that blue sky and white clouds, you know?"
I understand you big-headed ghost!
Isn't this neurotic?
Do you make a modern urban movie, do you want blue skies and white clouds?
Wu Zhenhong made it up over and over again, but this product was like a neuropath, and he would make inexplicable requests every day, but this kind of request Wu Zhenhong felt that he really couldn't understand what he wanted as a normal person!
Finally, Wu Zhenhong was outburst and felt that this thing was playing with him......
threw the tune in his face on the spot, scolded his eighteenth generation ancestor, and even wanted to slap this girl, but this thing was not angry, but licked his face and continued to let you make it up with a smile......
Gu Kun
…………………………
"Xiao Zhou! I think that feeling of blue sky and white clouds...... You know, my songs need that feeling. ”
“……”
"Also, I want people to come and go to the market, it's very comfortable......"
“……”
"The feeling of arrogance is a must, after all, this is a martial arts movie, well, in addition to this, I need the elegance of mountains and rivers......"
“……”
Huang Jiacheng looked at Zhou Yang very seriously.
Zhou Yang was carrying the guitar on his back, and his eyes were full of confusion.
He couldn't understand what the thing was saying.
"Director Huang, I'm sorry, I can't write songs......"
"You've won all the Golden Melody Awards, won't you?"
"It's not the same ......"
"What's the difference? It's all about writing songs, and you won't give me face at the Academy Awards, but I've given you enough face......"
"I can't write lyrics!"
"Why can't you write it? You can write, I believe you, Xiao Zhou, this time our gold owner is very generous, don't worry, this is a lot of money, and I won't treat you badly if I write it. ”
"It's not a question of money or not, it's that you don't even understand the tune very well, Director Huang, why don't you go find someone else!"
"No, it's you!"
Huang Jiacheng, a big man of 1.9 meters, stood in front of Zhou Yang like a giant bear.
He pushed his black-rimmed glasses and glanced at Zhou Yang's whole body......
Zhou Yang had a feeling of being targeted by a poisonous snake, as if there was no secret in his whole body.
"That's it! Director Huang, let's go, let's go, don't come to our company in the future......"
"Oh, Mr. Wu, how can you drive people away? Do you know how to be polite at a young age? ”
"Fuck off!"
"Teacher Wu, you're not right, if you don't pour me tea when I come over, it's just that you still push me like this, you have to at least make me a cup of tea, right?"
“……”
Wu Zhenhong pushed Huang Jiacheng a few times, but Huang Jiacheng was a practitioner, and he didn't give an inch no matter how he pushed it, and after hearing Wu Zhenhong's angry scolding, this thing was not angry, but leaned at the door as if he had taken root, and he didn't leave.
Zhou Yang looked at Huang Jiacheng.
He really can't believe that he is so cheeky, and he is also a little nervous, and a guy like an ancient gangster is one of the most famous directors in Huaxia......
"Zhou Xi, why are you still stunned, hurry up and call the security guard to come over and pull this goods away! Grass! Wu Zhenhong was so angry that his beard was shaking, and he glared fiercely at Zhou Xi, who dared to breathe next to him.
"Don't waste your strength, you can't pull me away if you have ten more security guards...... Teacher Wu, I'm here today, if you don't agree to help me today, I'll eat yours, drink yours, wear yours, I'll follow you wherever you go, unless you wipe my neck with a knife, I won't leave...... Mr. Wu, I promise you, this time the work is absolutely simple, you just came to it casually, right? ”
"Then you just stay there, grass!" Wu Zhenhong's face was so angry that his face turned pale, but he couldn't do anything about this rogue director, "Xiao Zhou, come in, don't pay attention to this neurotic!" ”
Now is not the era when Xiangjiang made movies......
But!
In the era of Xiangjiang, Huang Jiacheng's reputation was not low, there was once a gang of gangsters who came to the crew to make trouble and collect protection money, Huang Jiacheng didn't say a word and maimed two of the seven or eight gangsters with his bare hands, one was paralyzed for life, and three bastards were kicked to pieces, becoming the last three eunuchs in Huaxia.
The fight alarmed Xiangjiang at that time, and the police came forward to investigate.
"Teacher Wu, then I'm staying at the door...... I don't believe you won't go out! I'm sincere......"
Watching Zhou Yang follow in, after the door was closed, Huang Jiacheng was not angry, and he didn't push the door and bang on the door, but happily sat on the chair next to him and shouted inside with Erlang's legs crossed.
…………………………
"Teacher Wu, Director Huang ......"
"Ignore him, like a piece of kraft candy."
"I think he's quite sincere."
"Hehe, he does have sincerity, but he will drive people to death!"
Sunlight shines into the office.
Wu Zhenhong didn't have any good face at all, but there was nothing he could do.
Ordinary security guards are indeed not the opponents of this goods, they can't be driven away, they can't be beaten, and now it's a society under the rule of law, I heard that the director of the Hong Kong Island and mainland co-production is most likely directed by this product, and I heard that Shen Changwei was originally looking for him, but Shen Changwei refused without saying a word.
Although "Hero" has already been painted, Shen Changwei is still ready to take "Hero" to Cannes to win the awards, and he also signed up for the Oscar, and people are quite unwilling now.
"Is he really that ruthless?"
"You understand the lyrics he asked you to write, right?"
"......" Zhou Yang shook his head.
"Xiao Zhou, let me tell you this, this guy, before he tosses you into doubt your life, it is impossible for you to understand, and it changes when shooting. Whoever cooperates with him will suffer! ”
"Oh, it seems to be quite serious about movies." Zhou Yang nodded.
"What kind of seriousness is this to the movie, this is completely shit-like bad taste, you think you write something very good? No, it's not a question of whether the writing is good or not, people will deny it as soon as they read it, no matter how well you write, this product will be completely denied, don't toss you a hundred and eighty times, this product will be ......" Wu Zhenhong recalled the past years, he sneered, and at the same time warned Zhou Yang, who seemed to understand whether he understood or not, "In short, if you want this kind of neurotic satisfaction, unless you write exactly the same as his so-called shit, otherwise, even if the lyrics are wrong, he will catch you to change ......"
Just when Wu Zhenhong and Zhou Yang popularized Huang Jiacheng.
There was a knock on the door outside the office.
And then......
"Haha, Xiao Zhou, I want this lyrics! It's so well written, I want it...... Well written, perfect! ”
The door was slammed open.
Huang Jiacheng walked in happily with a crumpled piece of paper.
Behind him stood two bewildered young men.
