Chapter 423: I Write, You Direct, He Acts (Ask for Subscription)

The two of them had negotiated, but Ge You next to him couldn't sit still.

"Xiao Luo, what did you say to my brother today?" He took the cup and touched it with Xuluo, "Brother's acting skills, you look okay, right?"

Xuluo said seriously, "Comrade Li Dongbao, you have become a well-known star in the country, are you still worried that there is no filming?"

"Hey!"

Ge You smiled bitterly, "Yes! There are a lot of people looking for me, but all of them are hippie smiley characters...... To tell you the truth, Pace came to me a few days ago, and his sequel to "Two Sons Open a Shop" wanted to ask me to do it with him, but I quickly refused him!

My brother likes to act in comedy, but I prefer to act in dramas! So I only filmed "Beiyang Sailor" directed by Feng Xiaoning this year. Don't let them all think that I can play a little person who laughs and scolds, nothing else! It's impossible, don't you?"

Feng Xiaogang, who had just gotten his wish, was also beside him to help his nobleman speak: "Yes, Luo Ye, you don't know Youzi's ability! That's not bad anywhere! In "Farewell My Concubine", who dares to say that he is worse than Zhang Fengyi? That is, he can't play Cheng Dieyi, otherwise the Cannes actor will be his!"

At the beginning, Feng Xiaogang was able to connect with Xuluo, and it all relied on Ge You's matchmaking, saying that a friend was interested in screenwriting or something, and asked if he could go to "The Story of the Editorial Department" to learn and learn.

Xuluo agreed, and then Feng Xiaogang was able to transform from an artist to a screenwriter, then an assistant director, and then a director today.

Feng Xiaogang has always remembered this favor, so he naturally spoke a little harder.

But he didn't know that he had already said one thing right.

That is, Ge You is really a Cannes actor, and he should be the first one - Zhang Guorong's Cannes actor does not have it in Xuluo's memory.

Even "Farewell My Concubine" didn't win the Cannes Best Actor, so how many movies like "Alive" are there?

So Ge You is not only the first, it is very likely that no other actor will be able to get it for many years to come.

This honor is not only his own, but also that of Chinese films.

Therefore, Xuluo never forgets.

Seeing Ge You's depressed and expectant eyes, Xuluo touched him himself, took a sip of wine, and said, "Brother You, have you read what I wrote?"

Ge You drank his wine and subconsciously said, "Are you talking about the Western magic book that was recently published in Miguo?"

The book "Harry Potter" was published in Mi at the end of August.

Because there is no publicity, Xuluo has no fame in the industry, and the sales are not very good, and even the bestseller list of "***" has not been up.

I heard that more than 70,000 copies have only been sold now, and most of them are still bought by Chinese.

After all, Xuluo is now the most famous in the Chinese circle in Miao, and California is the stronghold of the Chinese.

This matter has been known to domestic reporters in Miguo, and then by the way wrote an article back to publish, which means that my country's genius writer Xuluo has the courage to challenge himself and march towards Western magic themes or something.

Therefore, Ge You has naturally heard of it.

….

He didn't even know which book Xuluo was mentioning at this time.

"Wrong." Xuluo shook his head.

"That's "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty"? Could it be "Huanzhu Gege"!?" Ge You guessed twice in a row, but he still didn't guess correctly.

Xuluo smiled at him, "I'll give you another chance, and if you don't guess, I'll give this role to someone else."

Ge You's heart jumped subconsciously.

He was already serious at this point, and began to think about what books Xuluo had published.

In addition to Miguo and Xiangjiang, Xuluo also published "Tomb Raider" and "Resident Evil" in Japan, but the content of these two books is definitely not suitable for him.

So in the country?

What did he publish in the country...... Belch!?

Ge You suddenly became a whole body

Zhen, trembling, asked, "Xiao Luo, you won't say it's ...... "Alive", right!?"

Xuluo smiled and said nothing.

Feng Xiaogang immediately said, "Youzi, what are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and toast Luo Ye! You have given you such an important horn as wealth, and you still don't thank you?"

All actors in the literary circle, there is no one who does not read Xuluo's "Alive", including Feng Xiaogang.

He didn't care what Xuluo meant, anyway, he had to implement it as soon as possible.

What are you kidding, that's "Alive"!

It has been praised by Xie Lao personally, and it has been praised as the most profound in the past ten years!

Such an adaptation into a movie, is there anything that does not win awards? Ge You still has no praise?

Ge You didn't say a word, picked up the wine in the cup, raised his hands, and clinked glasses with Xuluo: "Xiao Luo, my brother can't speak, but if you give my brother this role, I have to play it for you well, and I can't let people say that you chose the wrong person!"

"I won't choose the wrong person!"

Xuluo took a sip of wine and said with a smile.

Because I've seen you act in this movie!

When he said this, Ge You and Feng Xiaogang's hearts were put back in their stomachs.

Ge You laughed so much that his mouth was crooked, "Xiao Luo, how did you think of letting me play Fugui?"

"You have such a changeable temperament, you can not only lift the wind, but also fall into the dust, you can play the hero and the humble person." Xuluo said in a harmonious voice, "It's a waste for such a good actor not to play Fugui!"

"yes, it's a waste!" Feng Xiaogang became a qualified heel, "But in addition to good actors, good movies also need a good director, Luo Ye, which big director are you going to find?"

"Why don't you just recommend yourself?" Xuluo asked him.

Feng Xiaogang smiled, "If you ask me this again ten years later, I will ask you to give me this job at the risk of giving my life!" But now, I know how many points I have."

Facing Ge You's expectant eyes, Xuluo smiled, "I'm going to find Director Zhang Yamou to do it, what do you think?"

"Okay! Okay!!"

Ge You slapped him, "I thought it was him, too! This kind of heaviness, this kind of rural theme, this kind of sadness and depression, he is definitely one of the top cutting-edge directors in China!"

"Why don't you ask why it's not Director Kaige?" Xuluo asked him again.

Ge You was smart and didn't be fooled: "Since Xiao Luo has decided it, then it is naturally the most suitable for "Alive"...... Oh, come, drink, drink!"

….

Feng Xiaogang was grinning beside him.

I thought to myself that this guy is really good at talking, I still have to learn more from him with my hot temper, otherwise I must be a bag outside!

……

After drinking and going home, early the next morning, Ge You came to the door.

Outside, the doorbell rang for a while before Xuluo came out to open the door for him.

"What's wrong?" The young man looked at him in a suit, five people and six people, "You want to go on a blind date?"

"How can you!"

Ge You smiled and said, "Didn't we talk about Director Zhang Yamou yesterday? I heard that since he came back from winning the Silver Lion at the Venice Film Festival in September, he has been resting at home looking for new themes, shouldn't we go over and talk to him about "Alive"?"

To say that Zhang Yamou is really powerful.

Two years ago, "Red Sorghum" won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival, this year's "Hang the Red Lantern" was the Silver Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival, and a few years later, the Cannes Film Festival won the best actor.

The achievements are greater than those of Director Kai Ge, whom Xuluo likes very much!

Such a director is among the younger generation, if you say that you don't carry the Ding, no one will believe it!

And Zhang Yamou's creative energy is very strong.

In 87 it was "Red Sorghum", in 88 it was "Code Name Jaguar", in 90 it was "Ju Dou", and in 91 it was "The Red Lantern Hangs High".

Compared with him, Director Kai Ge's film scheduling speed is much worse

Finish.

Xuluo still likes Zhang Yamou, and the main source is "Red Sorghum".

It is no exaggeration to say that Xu Luo had watched "Red Sorghum" twice before, and he watched it seven or eight times in the past two years, and he could feel a new "beauty" every time.

Hearing Ge You say this, Xuluo was also interested, "Do you know where he lives?"

"Yes!"

Ge You nodded, "It's just over there in XX Hutong, in a small building, I've been there before!"

"Good!"

Xuluo said, "I'll go change my clothes, let's go here."

It wasn't until the boy and Ge You got into the taxi that he remembered that it was useless to just know where Zhang Yamou was, and he had to be at home.

If you go to the air and can't find anyone, don't you just have to wait?

Fortunately, what he was worried about did not happen, and Zhang Yamou was at home.

Zhang Yumou opened the door for Xuluo and Ge You shirtless, and when he entered the living room, he found a large pile of papers and manuscripts inside.

The house he lives in is rented, in a small old residential building, 50 yuan a month, one bedroom and one living room, it looks a bit messy.

From the large open bedroom door, it can be seen that he still lives alone.

Legend has it that Gong Li is already with him, and it seems that the two are at least not living together.

For creators, it seems that living alone is also conducive to the burst of inspiration.

"The house is not cleaned up, you can sit casually." Zhang Yumou went and poured them two glasses of water, "Yuzi, why didn't you say it in advance? If you want to talk about Teacher Xu, I have to dress neatly, right?"

He looks like a man working on the Loess Plateau now, and he is very rustic.

Xuluo smiled and said, "It's me who is embarrassed to come over to visit without saying a word first!" I haven't congratulated Director Zhang on winning the Grand Prize for your new film at the Venice Film Festival!"

….

Zhang Yamou smiled so much that his face was full of folds, "I didn't shoot this film well, otherwise we would have to win the Golden Lion Award!" Wait and see, I'm going to win the Golden Lion one day!"

"What about the Cannes Palme d'Or?" Ge You suddenly asked with a smile.

"That...... If you have the chance, take it!" Don't look at Zhang Yamou's growth, but his courage is not small, and his ambition is not small.

"Have you been working on any new movies lately?" Ge You asked again, "I just filmed "The Red Lantern Hangs High", why don't you stop?"

"How can it, I finally have so many filming opportunities, I can't wait to shoot two or three films a year!" "I recently found a very interesting story about a rural woman who had a lawsuit with the village chief, and I was asking them to write a manuscript and prepare to shoot it!"

The smile on Ge You's face immediately stiffened.

Zhang Yamou said in surprise, "What's the matter, what are you?"

Xuluo said, "I'll say it for Brother You, Director Zhang, we came here today to invite you to cooperate."

"Cooperation?" Zhang Yamou looked at him, then at Ge You, and became interested: "How to cooperate?"

"I write, you direct, he acts." Xuluo's answer was simple and straightforward.

Zhang Yamou became more interested, "What kind of book? Don't tell me it's a commercial blockbuster, I can't make it now!"

"It's not."

"Aren't you thinking about the Cannes Palme d'Or? What I gave you is the one who will get the prize."

Zhang Yamou is a very smart person, and when he heard this, he immediately thought for a while, and soon had an answer.

"You're not going to say 'Alive', are you!?" Zhang Yamou's eyes suddenly brightened.

"Yes!"

Xuluo smiled and nodded, "If it wasn't for 'Alive', how could it be equipped with such a strong lineup?"

He pointed at himself, then at Ge You, and then at Zhang Yamou, "The three of us have a partnership! I'll bring you any more actor you want...... There is no problem with any money, any scene, or any equipment."

"Hey, hey, hey!"

Zhang Yamou rubbed his hands in joy, "Good, good! Okay!!"

He was overjoyed.

Among these film directors in China, who hasn't read the book "Alive", and who hasn't coveted the adaptation copyright of this book?

That is, because this book was written by Xuluo, few people dared to come up to him to talk about the adaptation rights, otherwise they would have been robbed crazy.

Zhang Yamou is one of them.

He likes stories and wants to buy them and make them.

The story of "Alive" is too distinct, too depressing, and too distinctive, this is a masterpiece that writes about suffering to the extreme, and he has long liked it.

But Xuluo is not short of money, second, he is not short of fame, and third, there is no shortage of big directors to cooperate with him, Zhang Yamou can't help anything he thinks.

I originally thought about finding a relationship in the future to see if I could communicate with each other, so as to be an alternative director.

Unexpectedly, Xu Luo suddenly came to the door today, and said by name that he wanted to direct "Alive" by himself.

Isn't this just a pillow that you want to sleep!?

Zhang Yamou was delighted, but also a little strange, "Teacher Xu, why did you suddenly think about filming "Alive"?"

….

"Isn't it that my brother is in a hurry?" Xuluo pointed at Ge You and said, "Since he became famous for making comedies, he has not felt comfortable anywhere, and he always wants to make a better role to prove that he is not a person who only makes comedies...... Originally, I was going to do it again in two years, so let's just advance it a little earlier! Actually, I chose him and Zhang Daoyou!"

Ge You couldn't imagine that Xuluo actually had such a plan, and he was very moved for a while.

He knew that with the status of Xuluo, there was no need to buy his heart, so people really thought so.

And now it's for himself in advance, which also proves that he is a real good friend in Xuluo's heart.

In the future, I must treat Xiao Luo well, people treat me as a buddy, I have to treat him as a brother!

Zhang Yamou smiled when he heard this, "I won't tell you, Teacher Xu, you really have to wait until next year to talk about this play...... Isn't there already one in the works?"

He pointed to the manuscript on his desk, on the floor, and on the sofa, "It's all ready, the personnel are mobilized, and there's no way to stop!"

"I know." Xuluo said, "I'm also talking to the two of you, letting you know that we are going to officially cooperate in this drama and do such a show! Next year, I can afford to wait, right, Brother Yu!"

"Huh!"

Ge You hurriedly agreed.

Now that the matter has been decided, he will play Fugui, so what is there to worry about?

Postpone it for a year, and I can just improve my acting skills, so as not to make a fool of myself when I don't act well!

[In view of the general environment,

Seeing this, Zhang Yamou didn't include the lake, "My side is naturally very happy, even very honored! Let's talk about it first! When I'm done filming the drama in my hand, we'll get together and start working on it!"

"Okay!"

Xuluo agreed, and asked casually, "Director Zhang, do you need funds for this play?"

Zhang Yumou was stunned, "You give it to me?"

"Hmm!"

Xuluo nodded.

"Why? My films don't make a lot of money." Zhang Yamou asked curiously, "It's like "Alive", there won't be much profit."

"It doesn't matter." "I just think the things you shoot are quite interesting. It would be nice if there were more pure directors like you in the film industry."

Zhang Yamou smiled dumbly, "Since you said so, then I'm welcome...... Teacher Xu, are you really sure that you want to invest?"

Xuluo Zhengse said, "As long as you need."

"Okay!"

Zhang Yamou stretched out his hand, "I like people who are happy and simple, and I also like pure people! I know what you think

You should also know what I think! Then let's work together for once!"

"No, at least twice!" Ge You said beside him.

Xuluo also held out his hand, "I hope it will be many, many times."

"Boom~~~"

At the moment when the two shook hands, countless colorful pictures and sounds appeared in front of Xuluo's eyes.
