Chapter 80: He's Really Enthusiastic
"The new album is selling well!"
Du Qifeng patted Leslie Cheung's arm with a smile and asked, "It's time to have a schedule this year, right?" I still have a police movie to shoot in the second half of the year, will you play it? ”
"Okay!"
Leslie Cheung happily agreed, and said with a smile: "By the way, I'll help you get the soundtrack." ”
"Wow! Then I'm going to give you double pay! ”
Du Qifeng joked.
He and Leslie Cheung worked together as early as 20 years ago, when he just entered the industry and participated in the filming of the 84 version of "The Legend of Deer and Ding", and the theme song in that version was sung by Leslie Cheung.
After a few jokes, Du Qifeng saw Leslie Cheung looking at Mu Rong curiously, so he took the initiative to introduce: "This is the actor of this play, Mu Rong, an actor from the mainland." ”
"I know, I've heard Gu Tsai talk about it."
Leslie Cheung changed into a rather authentic Chinese, leaned forward slightly, stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Hello, my name is Ah Rong." ”
He also has the word honor in his name.
Mu Rong has been in Xiangjiang for a while, and among all the people he has met, Leslie Cheung is the best speaker of Chinese.
"Gu Tsai said that your kung fu is very good! There was a chance to teach me two tricks. ”
At first glance, Leslie Cheung does not look like the white-faced young man in the traditional concept, and he is not tall, but he has a special charm and aura.
This was the first time Mu Rong had seen him, but he had heard Gu Tsai talk about him.
When Gu Tsai first entered the industry, he was taken care of by him, and he slowly became popular.
A person who is enthusiastic about promoting his juniors, and has debuted for nearly 30 years, and has hardly any negative news, it is no wonder that Zhang Bozhi, who is not stingy, has become honest in front of him.
Mu Rong glanced at Zhang Bozhi beside him, and said with a smile: "I also heard Gu Zai mention you, he has always said that you are really good, please take care of you in the future." ”
"Everyone is Chinese, of course we have to help each other!"
Leslie Cheung thought for a while, and said directly: "You are good at kung fu, it is most suitable to take the star route, in this way, Jackie is going to have a party next weekend, you can go with me!" I'll introduce you to him. ”
Jackie is Fang Long, the hottest Chinese actor in the world now, who just left a star on the Avenue of Fame in Hollywood last year.
Hearing his words, Mu Rong was stunned.
He said that he would take care of him, but in fact, it was just a scene, and he didn't expect Leslie Cheung to really help him.
But Leslie Cheung didn't mean to say anything about the scene, and directly introduced him to friends.
At this time, Mu Rong understood what Gu Zai meant when he said that Leslie Cheung was good.
He was really enthusiastic.
After chatting with Mu Rong for a few more words, Leslie Cheung noticed that Du Qifeng's eyes couldn't help but turn to Zhang Bozhi's body, and he stopped talking, and immediately guessed what he meant.
Turning to look at Zhang Bozhi, he asked with a smile: "How many scenes do you have today?" ”
Du Qifeng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw him take the initiative to mention it, and explained: "There is another scene, the scene of this scene has been filmed, and it can be transferred tomorrow." ”
When Zhang Bozhi first debuted, the third play she filmed was "Left and Right Love" with Leslie Cheung, in which she played Leslie Cheung's sister-in-law.
At that time, Leslie Cheung recognized her as his sister, so she would still listen to Leslie Cheung's words.
Hearing this, Leslie Cheung smiled and persuaded: "There is only one shot left, so just stick to it, finish the shooting early, I will invite you to have supper!" ”
Zhang Bozhi glanced at Du Qifeng unhappily, and said angrily: "I don't want it, I'm afraid that something will happen, I found someone to calculate before the New Year, I will have a bloody disaster this year." ”
Mu Rong also arrived in Xiangjiang, only to find that Xiangjiang still attaches great importance to traditional culture such as feng shui theory, and many people believe in it.
Including in the film and television industry, before the start of each drama, the camera will be wrapped in red cloth and solemnly carry out the start-up ceremony.
This habit has also been brought to the mainland with the northward movement of Xiangjiang filmmakers.
I heard that many mainland directors have also learned this set now, and they have done it well.
However, Zhang Bozhi may not really believe this, she said this more because she didn't want to be soft in front of the crew.
Leslie Cheung thought about it, and suddenly took off a talisman from his neck and put it in Zhang Bozhi's hand: "Na, this is the talisman I brought up from childhood to adulthood, it is very spiritual, with it to bless you, you will definitely be fine." ”
Zhang Bozhi was taken aback and hurriedly pushed it back: "No, this is too valuable." ”
"It's okay! I'll ask for another one another day! ”
Saying that, Leslie Cheung lowered his voice and persuaded: "Everyone is waiting for you, it's also very hard, you finish filming early, everyone should finish work early, be obedient, just give me face!" ”
Hearing him say this, Zhang Bozhi is no longer sensible and has no way to continue to be willful.
Nodding obediently, he turned around and put on Weiya and came back to the camera.
When she doesn't play petty, her work ability is still okay.
Soon, the last shot was successfully shot.
Leslie Cheung watched from below the whole time, and when he saw Mu Rong untie the Weiya tightrope and come back, he couldn't help but admire: "Gu Zai didn't say it right, your kung fu is not good, it's too good!" Wouldn't it hurt if you grabbed her with one hand like that? ”
The last shot is the picture of Mu Rong holding the antenna with one hand and Zhang Bozhi with the other.
In order not to wear a goof, the steel wire that fixed Zhang Bozhi was tied to Mu Rong's wrist with a transparent plastic strap at one end, that is, he had to bear the weight of Zhang Bozhi's whole body with one hand.
"Luckily, she's not too heavy."
Mu Rong was unimpressed.
As far as Zhang Bozhi's weight of more than eighty catties is concerned, it is not a problem for Mu Rong at all.
"Awesome."
Leslie Cheung exclaimed: "Actually, I've always wanted to make kung fu movies, just like Jackie and Jet, it should be very interesting, but my actions are just not good-looking." ”
"It's very simple to look good in a posture, as long as you adjust your posture well, you have the demeanor of a grandmaster when you stand still."
Mu Rong smiled and said, "I'll teach you another day." ”
"A word is a certainty! No reversal! ”
Leslie Cheung pointed at Mu Rong with a smile, and then shouted happily: "I'll invite everyone to have supper tonight, okay?" ”
When the crew who were busy finishing work and collecting the machine, they cheered when they heard this, and their exhaustion was swept away.
Leslie Cheung is very bold, he came to visit Zhang Bozhi's class, but he directly invited the entire crew to supper.
However, only Zhang Bozhi may not know about the entire crew, and he is helping Zhang Bozhi ease the relationship with everyone in the crew.
This also made Mu Rong's impression of him a lot better.
After the supper was over, everyone said goodbye and left.
Leslie Cheung drank a lot of wine, but he was very sober and personally sent Zhang Bozhi and a few people to the car.
"Where do you live?"
Leslie Cheung sent Zhang Bozhi away and looked at Mu Rong again.
"I'll just take a taxi myself."
"You say it's good where to stay, if you stop by, I'll send you back."
Leslie Cheung is very enthusiastic.
Seeing this, Mu Rong could only reply: "I live over there in Kowloon Tong." ”
"Huh? Really drop by! ”
Leslie Cheung greeted with a smile: "Get in the car!" I'll send you back! ”
Mu Rong saw that he couldn't shirk it, so he was no longer polite and got into the car directly.
"I haven't been to the mainland for more than a year."
Driving the car, Leslie Cheung's eyes were bright.
He drank a lot and became more and more talkative.
"Actually, I am very optimistic about the mainland market, and in the future, mainland films will definitely develop better than Xiangjiang."

While driving the car, he continued the topic that he had not finished talking about at the wine table just now: "The biggest problem with Xiangjiang movies is that they are influenced by the West too much, they don't have their own culture, and they seem to have learned to shoot and shoot.
Therefore, mainland films must learn from this experience, and they must not lose their most important culture in order to learn advanced technology from the West, because culture is the most fundamental thing in films..."
Mu Rong listened quietly, nodding his head from time to time.
Just at the dinner table, Leslie Cheung has been chatting about the development of mainland films.
His insights into the market are quite unique, and many of them coincide with Mu Rong's own analysis.
"Now many Xiangjiang filmmakers are going north, this is the trend, because Xiangjiang has no roots, and Xiangjiang movies give people the feeling that it is a kind of chaos, kung fu movies are also chaotic, comedy films are also noisy, it is not okay to keep going like this, you must find your roots, in order to truly feel at ease..."
Leslie Cheung said, suddenly paused.
Mu Rong glanced at him curiously, he was looking ahead, silently driving the car.
Just wanted to retract his gaze, but Mu Rong suddenly found that something seemed to be wrong with his situation.
His fingers gripping the steering wheel were a little tight, faintly white.
His forehead was also oozing with sweat, and his face was gloomy.
His shoulders trembled slightly, as if he were enduring great pain.
"What's wrong with you?"
Mu Rong asked suspiciously.
Crunch!
Leslie Cheung suddenly turned in the direction, parked the car on the side of the road, lay on the steering wheel, and gasped, as if it was a little difficult to breathe.
