Chapter 237: Xing Ye's Second Interview (Part I)
"What?" Zhu Quan was taken aback, looked at Lu Caijian in surprise, and asked, "Master Xing hopes to re-interview?" ”
"Yes, Xiao Zhu." Lu Caijian patted Zhu Quan's shoulder and said to Zhu Quan in an affirmative and encouraging tone: "This song should be said to be a 'second interview', not a re-interview?" ”
Zhu Quanquan was Lu Caijian deliberately playing word games in order to take care of his emotions, and shook his head:
"Brother Lu, don't turn around and comfort me, I know, Xing Ye was wet with tears several times in an interview just now, and he couldn't control his emotions, it seems that I asked too aggressively."
"Xiao Zhu, I really didn't comfort you!" Lu Caijian couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly explained: "Just now, Xingye's assistant Mary specially said that it was Xingye's own reason when she asked me for a second interview. ”
After a pause, Lu Caijian continued: "Xing Ye was afraid that you would think too much, and explained that he wanted to be interviewed by you Zhu Quan again, and felt that his performance just now was not very good, and he did not control his emotions. ”
Zhu Quan: ...
So, not for their own reasons?
At this time, Zhu Quan knew the real reason why Xing Ye asked to record for the second time.
In Xing Ye's own words, he felt that he was not good enough for the first time, and his Mandarin was not standard enough.
For Xing Ye, who demands perfection, this is imperfect and unacceptable.
That's why it's so requested.
However, for people who really know Xing Ye, such as Zhu Quan, this is just an excuse for Xing Ye.
Because most of Xing Ye's answers during the first recording were very emotional, he was afraid that his "gaffe" would be seen by the audience, and it happened that he was a very insecure person who wanted to hide his feelings.
So it is not surprising that there is such a requirement.
...
In the studio, all kinds of recording props were prepared again, "3,2,1..." Lu Caijian, who was on the side, commanded the camera for a second interview.
Immediately, according to the previously discussed plan, Zhu Quan looked at the camera lens that was flashing in front of him, and began to introduce:
"For more than a month, Hong Kong Island comedian and director Zhou Xingxing has almost been on the cusp of public opinion."
“... In March, Zhou Xingxing was recommended as a member of the CPPCC/CPPCC/Committee/Committee, but was criticized by the media for being late and leaving early at the opening ceremony of the Dongguang Provincial People's Congress...
On the first day of the first lunar month of the previous year, the movie "Journey to the West 1" directed by him was released in the mainland, which caused a huge box office success, but it was also accompanied by mixed reviews...
... Over the past 30 years, his films have almost accompanied generations of young people in the mainland to grow up, how should we know and understand this comedy star, today we interview Zhou Xingxing. ”
Then, after Zhu Quan's brief description, the program inserted the footage of Zhou Xingxing's classic movie "Domestic Lingling Paint" shot in the 90s:
[Commander: Ah Qi, the country has a mission to assign to you.
Aqi: Really? It's finally my turn. 】
Immediately, the camera turned and faced Zhu Quan again, only to hear Zhu Quan explain again:
"On March 14 this year, Zhou Xingxing's name appeared on the list of members of the Guangdong Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, when he was immersed in the post-production of the movie "Journey to the West and Conquering the Demon Chapter 2", and for an actor who has only appeared in comedy movies for more than 20 years, this serious task is a bit sudden for him.
Immediately, the camera retreated, and Zhu Quan appeared in front of the camera, as well as the star opposite Zhu Quan.
Because it was a "second interview", the questions in the interview were the same as in the first interview, and nothing changed.
The only thing that has changed is probably Xing Ye's mood.
This is the second time he faced Zhu Quan's problem, and Xing Ye has dealt with it much better.
Zhu Quan asked: "Before you received this notice, did you have this desire to participate in politics and discuss politics in your heart?" ”
Zhou Xingxing waved his hand again and again, and said, "No, no." ”
Zhu Quan smiled and continued to ask: "In your understanding at that time, what is this political/cooperative/committee/member for, do you have any understanding?" ”
Zhou Xingxing said: "In my opinion, the CPPCC/CPPCC/committee/member can communicate with you some of my experience to see what can be done to help film culture." ”
Zhu Quan's face was as usual, but he asked a sharp question:
Others, however, have other thoughts about your view. They feel that this CPPCC meeting is not a meeting of a film troupe, but has a very serious social responsibility, then he will say that you are not prepared enough? ”
Zhou Xingxing hurriedly spoke: "Yes, yes, yes, I didn't prepare enough, because this time aspect is not very good." ”
This is the first breaking point of the "Seeing" program, that is, Zhou Xingxing admits his mistake.
As someone who lives in Hong Kong and has never been involved in political affairs, Zhou Xingxing is not clear about the concept of politics/association.
Ten days later, on March 24, at the opening meeting of the Dongguang Provincial People's Congress, Zhou Xingxing was 40 minutes late;
In the afternoon, he was again absent from the panel discussion.
The meeting was crowded with media, and the matter was soon published with the title of "Zhou Xingxing of the Political/Cooperative/Committee/Member of the Political Consultative Conference/Committee Member Late and Leaving Early to Play Soy Sauce", which caused heated discussions.
Zhou Xingxing said that he was also very annoyed, saying that the driver was on the wrong road, and the reason for the traffic jam was that he was late.
In this regard, he also said that it was really rude.
Zhou Xingxing said: "To avoid this situation, you should stay in a hotel over there a day earlier, and there will be no situation where the driver goes the wrong way, that is, he is inexperienced." ”
Originally, in the initial question, this paragraph came to an end, but Zhu Quan felt that it was not enough, and insisted on adding more in-depth questions to clarify the matter as it was.
And this is also supported and approved by Zhou Xingxing.
Then Zhu Quan and Zhou Xingxing asked and answered:
【
Zhu Quan: Why didn't you participate in the group discussion in the afternoon?
Zhou Xingxing: Because I have to leave Hong Kong in the afternoon.
Zhu Quan: Was it your previous arrangement?
Zhou Xingxing: That's right.
Zhu Quan: Did you have any concerns at that time, saying that if you left without participating in the group discussion in the afternoon, there might be a big turmoil?
Zhou Xingxing: I haven't thought about it.
Zhu Quan: Because I know that you have become a member of the CPPCC, people will expect you to be not only a star, but also a member of the CPPCC, a member of the CPPCC, a member of the CPPCC,
Zhou Xingxing: I understand this more and more, and I understand it more and more. There are a lot of things that you don't have experience with, and of course you make mistakes, and there will be problems, and you learn. Oh, I see.
Zhu Quan: I read in some comments, why didn't Zhou Xingxing reject this identity, is it because this identity represents a kind of glittering symbol, a hat similar to a jade crown, can bring you greater benefits?
Zhou Xingxing: Personally, I don't think it's really so shiny, but maybe because I'm a filmmaker, everyone pays more attention to it.
Zhu Quan: Are you going to take on this role again?
Zhou Xingxing: Yes, do your best, so I'm here again for this national conference, isn't it?
After a pause, Zhou Xingxing added:
Give me some time. Actually, whether I'm a CPPCC or something, I'm doing the work of promoting movies. But if they think that my identity can be promoted more effectively, I am very, very willing, very willing. These are all true.
】
Speaking of this, Xing Ye's emotions became excited again.
However, compared to the first interview, Xing Ye has already controlled it very well.
The interview continued.
Because Xing Ye said "these are all true", Zhu Quan was very touched.
In this sentence, Xing Ye let people see his truth, as always, without arguing, explaining, or covering up.
After chatting about the turmoil about Zhou Xingxing, the topic focused on Zhou Xingxing himself.
A video appeared in the picture, which was everyone's evaluation of Xing Ye:
【
Chen Jiashang: Zhou Xingxing, a genius.
Luo Jiaying: The genius and the idiot, the separation is a line between it.
Yuanhua: Many people say that he often has a big temper.
Huang Yifei: He takes the price very seriously.
Lin Zicong: Just keep demanding higher and higher, better and better.
Wang Jing: It's about dominating everyone.
...
】
Zhu Quan explained in the voiceover: "It can be heard that the evaluation of this comedic character by people who know him is very different, some call him a genius, some call him a tyrant, on the one hand, he is constantly discovering new movies and new collaborators; On the other hand, the signed artists who have cooperated with him have continuously terminated their contracts, and their former partners no longer cooperate, and some business partners have gone to court. ”
Zhu Quan continued to ask: "There is a common description among these people, which means that you think you have some ego? ”
Zhou Xingxing: "Self? Of course, I'm a serious person at work, but sometimes you know, when you're serious, some people are unhappy. ”
Zhu Quan continued to ask: "Why does earnestness cause unhappiness? ”
Zhou Xingxing: "For example, if you are filming, you will NG a hundred times in one shot, do you see if anyone is unhappy!" Of course there will be people who are not happy! Right? That is to say, what are you doing, you have a problem here, you are so troublesome. ”
It's already an open secret about Zhou Xingxing's paranoia during the filming of the movie.
During the filming of the movie, Zhou Xingxing would directly intervene when he encountered something he thought was inappropriate, and several directors broke up with him, all because he had different ideas from the director on the scene, and would change the scene in public until he turned his face.
In the films he directs, he will intervene in everything from planning, script writing, art, special effects, martial arts instruction, to post-production and mixing.
Although the 3D special effects of the new film have mixed reviews, he will spend a lot of effort on details such as "the sound of the orangutan beating his chest in the film is not like an animal enough" under the current level of domestic stunt production.
Even his assistant Mary described him as "even a toothpick that falls to the ground".
Zhu Quan opened his mouth and asked, "Why do you care about this?" ”
Zhou Xingxing glanced at the assistant who was standing not far away, his expression was slightly puzzled, and asked, "Is it?" I can assure you that this is nonsense. ”
Zhu Quan helped Mary explain: "She originally meant to praise you and praise you for being serious. ”
Zhou Xingxing suddenly realized at this time, and said with a smile: "Praise me for being serious, right?" That's good. yes, I'm that serious. We have to be serious in what we do to have hope, right? ”
Zhu Quan heard such a childlike sincere answer, and his admiration for Zhou Xingxing in his heart went to a higher level.
