Now the two foreigners he asked, one black and one white, are both international students, and they are both international students from the United States.

At the beginning, after these two foreigners watched Zheng Xu's movie, they liked the director very much, and some beautiful young people were more motivated, so they went to Zhongzhou City to study.

When the short video was launched last year, the two of them made an account, claiming that they would eat all the major delicacies in Yanguo for three years, and then there was no more.

What to say about this place in Zhongzhou City, there may not be many local specialties, but as long as you don't look for local specialties, other specialties are much better.

After all, it is a transportation hub city, and the crowds of people who come and go from the south to the north gather here, and there are delicacies from all over the country.

Zheng Xu has occasionally swiped the video of the two of them before, what is it called three chins, looking at the tens of thousands of fans, the two foreigners are quite famous locally, acting skills, this thing is not important, I brought them here for this shooting.

...................

Near lunch, the crew brought two foreigners, a black and a white, to the crew.

The tall one is a very traditional kind of black American, his complexion is not dark and shiny, but brown, but he is still black in appearance, more than 1.8 meters tall, and he looks a little thin.

And this white man, a little more than 1.7 meters tall, with a small yellow hair, and a little self-curling, looks very similar to the legendary French director and actor, Louis de Fines!

It was the little old man who played "Escape from the Tiger's Mouth", and it was because he had some imagination with the French star that Zheng Xu caught up with him.

Ahem, Zheng Xu didn't have the idea of consuming the deceased French national treasure star, but isn't it all a coincidence, there is a young white actor who looks very similar to him, and he came to make a cameo appearance in the movie he is about to take to Cannes for the award, all of which is a coincidence.

Seeing Zheng Xu, these two international students were very excited, especially this black man named Pete, who pulled Zheng Xu to take a group photo.

"Hello Director Zheng, I'm very happy to see you today, can I take a photo with you? I'm a fan of yours, my mom and dad are fans of yours, my grandma..."

"Yes, yes, come." Zheng Xu hurriedly stopped his introduction, the black people seemed to be a little broken-mouthed, this guy spoke Mandarin in a weird tone, and he couldn't stop his mouth from breaking it, which was introduced to his grandmother.

After taking a group photo, Zheng Xu watched the two of them take out the DVD disc from their backpack and wanted him to sign it.

The black guy took the latest Chinese hardcover version of the "Thunderbolt Ranger" collector's edition DVD, and this white guy was a little shy, and took out a set of "Heartless Dao Chief" and asked Zheng Xu to sign it.

"Director Zheng, my Chinese name is Fengguang, I am your junior, and I am also a radio and television director, I hear the teacher often mention you."

"Oh?" Zheng Xu couldn't help but look at this white guy called Fengguang twice, the young man is very motivated, and he is actively moving closer to the organization, he is a good seedling, but this small body is not good, if he is in danger in the wild, he can't run.

"I haven't been back for a long time, how is the teacher?"

Zheng Xu thought of his teacher again, the old man offended many people very much when he was young, and now he is much more honest when he is older.

"Ahh You said that teacher, he showed me the documentary he made when he was young, and it's really this, it's amazing, and I'm going to make a documentary like this in the United States in the future. ”

Fengguang talked about Zheng Xu's teacher and gave Zheng Xu a thumbs up.

Speaking of this, Zheng Xu had a headache, I don't know what this old man thinks, but now he dares to show such a documentary to the freshmen? What are you trying to do?

The reason why he has been staying in Heda now and being an honest teacher is that more than ten years ago, he made a documentary when he was young, and the name can't be said, the content is probably the daily life of a county leader.

When Zheng Xu, the teacher, was young, he was also very wild.

What is daily life, it is literal, in this documentary, in the name of his friend's help to record life, he filmed the leader in high definition and uncensored, collecting money at ordinary times, eating, drinking, and having fun, or something, daily activities, comparable to the live broadcast decades later.

Later, the documentary was broadcast on local TV stations, and it was an instant hit, and the fate of that leader can be imagined.

But Zheng Xu's reputation as a teacher also stinks, mainly because he plays the emotional card, mixes with other leaders, shoots this kind of thing openly, and makes it into a documentary and then plays it, the means are a little too dirty, theoretically, he is playing with other people's feelings.

The old man offended too many people outside, so he could only hide in the school and teach in peace.

Then I met Zheng Xu, a good seedling who yearns for the film and television industry ----- Heda.

Later, this kind of temper of the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, and he is also a little crooked by this old man.

As Zheng Xu slowly became famous, the old man's life gradually improved, and the people who troubled him disappeared, and it seems that now the old guy wants to come out again.

......................

After lunch, I rushed to the set, and today's scene is a very simple background introduction.

The Frenchman, played by Pitt, wants to go back to Vietnam to find relatives, and the American is his good buddy, very enthusiastic, and volunteered to accompany him on a trip to Vietnam to find relatives.

The film is going to Cannes to participate in the awards, so why should it have something to do with France, add a little plot about France and the United States, without any insinuation.

Zhao Dongbei looked at the small broken village in Southeast Asian style built by the crew in the ravine in front of him, not to mention, it looked decent, at a glance, it was a bit like a savage tribe.

"Xiao Xu, don't you say that little white boy is like that person, why don't you let him play a Frenchman, and a black man plays a Frenchman?"

This reflects the difference in vision, Uncle Zhao is based in China, and he doesn't know much about the water of some international film and television.

"Uncle, do you know that there is a saying now that the Gallic rooster is actually a black rooster?! There are a lot of blacks in France, this is political correctness, I am going to take it to Cannes this time to participate in the award, I have to pay attention to it. ”

Is the Gallic rooster actually a black chicken?

Zhao Dongbei looked at Zheng Xu with some suspicion, he always felt that something was wrong with this, Zheng Xu was bullying him for not knowing.

"Hey, uncle, you believe me, I have experience in this matter, and the old foreign country's thinking is different from ours, you look at this."

Zheng Xu explained, handed Zhao Dongbei a thick notebook for him to read by himself, picked up the walkie-talkie and began to arrange the shooting.

Today, there are many special actors on the scene, and dozens of special actors screened from major cinemas gathered, and the general crew has no strength to make up this group of people.

Flashing Media is very arrogant, the round-trip expenses are all-inclusive, including food and accommodation, not to pay money by the day, but to pay directly!

In addition, it was Director Zheng's drama that brought these people together.

All of them, both men and women, have one thing in common, which is ugliness.

The ugly ones are very distinctive, with bells and whistles, this kind of ugliness is not the kind of simple ugliness, but from the physiognomy, people can see that the ugliness is very layered, plus a little special effect makeup, the skin tone is a little darker, it is a bit Vietnamese.

....................

"Are all departments ready?"

"The lights are ready here."

"Photography ready."

“...... Ready. ”

“......”

“......”

"Okay, let's get ready to play, start shooting."

Zheng Xu hung the walkie-talkie on his waist and sat in front of the monitor under the small awning, watching the shooting in the "Vietnamese village" in the distance.

...................

Zhao Dongbei took the notebook handed by Zheng Xu, brought reading glasses, and frowned at the cover with a few simple introductions to "Deep Metaphor Explanation and Information".

The first paragraph is a background introduction and a metaphorical introduction.

...

Pete Daddy, a black man, was a former French mercenary who fought in the Vietnam War and joined the American army.

The relationship was a bit chaotic, but this successfully brought out several international background relationships that needed to be brought out, and his good friend Fengguang was also French, but he later followed his father to become an American citizen.

His father was also a mercenary who participated in the Vietnam War with the U.S. military.

The two of their fathers were good friends when they were young, and here is a metaphor that Zheng Xu strongly added, which is the so-called depth of the movie.

Why did Pete go back to Vietnam to find his family?

Because his mother is Vietnamese! This is the main reason why his complexion is not so dark.

And what about the scenery, his mother is white, and his father is also white!

He and Pete are the same age, but they have different skin colors and different nationalities.

Through the difference in nationality and skin color, we can metaphorize the deep-seated reasons for this.

On the battlefield, the status of black soldiers has never been high, especially in the American military sequence, even more so!

This is the same black man and a white man, the two are good friends, but as French mercenaries, after participating in the Vietnam War with the American army, they are treated very differently.

Pete's father is a black man, and in the sequence of the US military, he is discriminated against, so he can't talk about the object internally!

As a normal man, he must have physiological needs, and he can't find a partner in the U.S. military unit, what can he do in the end? You can only find local Vietnamese women.

And then there is Pete, a half-race "love crystal" that is not too dark.

...

And the father of the scenery is a white Frenchman, he is not discriminated against in the sequence of the US military, and successfully found a white American female soldier to deal with, and finally has the pure white "love crystallization" of the scenery.

The U.S. military has been fighting in the Vietnam War for so many years, and soldiers have a time to deal with them, and this time and story background are reasonably arranged.

The final result also has a metaphor, because Pete's father is black, after he was born, the Vietnam War ended, he only took Pete, and as for Pete's wife, he was not taken away, Pete's father is black, although he was discriminated against by the white people of the U.S. military in the army, but this does not prevent him from turning around and discriminating against Vietnamese again, even if it is his wife who has a child with him, he also discriminates.

The American soldiers would not take Pete and his two black men back to the United States, the war is over, and the black mercenaries will go back and forth from wherever they want, and they can only go back to France.

And Scenery's parents are both white, so he followed his parents back to the United States, this new hometown, and the final result is that although Pitt and Scenery are young, their ancestors are French, but they are now, one is American and the other is French.

is so intricate, and there is still a bit of an awkward background relationship to say it, but it can be brought out through the two actors.

Zheng Xu believes that there must be a jury that likes such depth and connotation.

This kind of metaphor of killing multiple birds with one stone, you don't care who is black, anyway, it seems to be a closed loop of logic, there is nothing wrong with it on the surface, it not only cares for minorities, but also objectively and fairly points out the character shortcomings of black people----- lacks a sense of responsibility, is too casual, and has inferior roots.

After watching this plot, white French viewers will feel that this black man is very real and reasonable.

After watching this plot, French black audiences will also feel that Director Zheng's level is still online, showing their black people's adaptability in any environment, as well as the spirit of never giving up on their children.

As for the American audience?

Doesn't this show the strength and attractiveness of the United States?

A white American female soldier can hook back a white French mercenary on the battlefield, the two have a child, and the French also go back to the United States with her.

In addition, the fact that they are black and white, and two French mercenaries who were summoned by the US military to participate in the Vietnam War from far away shows the influence and attractiveness of the United States in the world!

Isn't there anything wrong with the logic?!

.......................

Zhao Dongbei sat next to Zheng Xu with reading glasses, flipped through "Deep Metaphor Explanation and Information", looking at the background introduction of this paragraph and the detailed description of various metaphors, the whole person was a little confused.

"Xiao Xu, you are so complicated, can the French always understand it?"

Zhao Dongbei watched it three times before he sorted out the relationship here, and he still took the detailed outline of the script and read it directly, he didn't believe that the French judges could be so godly and could understand it once?

What if these deflated calves can't read it? Isn't this a flattering eye at the blind?

"It's not... Uncle, why do you think that only you can read the script outline? Can't the French judges take it and watch it? This can't be directly let them see it, but some content can still be handed to them directly, even if they can't understand it, it doesn't matter, this is the depth of the movie~ If they can understand it once, wouldn't it be reflective of the depth of my movie? ”

"Oh? Such? Your depth is not easy for ordinary people to see, right? ”

"You have to believe in the professionals, uncle~ This is called forced style, you can't understand it, and it doesn't affect you to watch the plot, right? These are all deep-seated things, and they don't affect it on the surface, this is the in-depth interpretation material we have prepared ourselves, which is not intended for ordinary audiences. ”

"What the hell is this? That's how you play international movies? There was something strange in Zhao Dongdong's eyes, and he suddenly had some other thoughts.
