Chapter 35 I also love photography
"Mr. Chen can be nominated for Best Actor!"
Walking out of the theater, Zhao Linhai sighed...
Zhao Xin has a different opinion: "This kind of character setting, with a little acting foundation, can be handled well... It can only be said that he was lucky and came across a good script! ”
“… The fourth book is indeed okay, but the director has something to do with the main plot..."
"He's meant to satirize the so-called gangster essence..."
"No wonder... Eh, do you read the newspaper? What do you think of this movie? ”
Zhao Xin shook his head: "I'm busy writing the script... What about you? ”
Zhao Linhai also shook his head: "I'm also busy..."Happy Hero" was adapted into a unit drama, six units, and two original... I'm looking for information..."
“… There's Baoting over there, let's go and have a look? ”
"Let's go!"
The two walked quickly to Baoting, took a newspaper casually, and flipped directly to the entertainment edition, the front page was "Cruel Street, a Unique Gangster Film":
"Two and a half hours cover a lot of tags: gangster, violence, romance, friendship, betrayal, sadness, life.
This film depicts a real underworld situation: there are no eternal brothers, only eternal interests and exploitation. All are trapped in a cycle of violence and betrayal, with no exit. ”
"Shen Xudong's first screenplay gangster film seems to emphasize authenticity, but I see a kind of romance. But the price of romance is to be buried on a snowy night... It's brutal..."
Seeing this, Zhao Xin also put down the newspaper in his hand: "What do you say?" ”
"Compliment... Just look at the title. ”
Zhao Linhai handed over the "BJ Morning News" in his hand, and Zhao Xin took a look at it - "Desolate Street"...
Just look at the title and you'll know the general content...
“… It seems that there is no problem with word of mouth! ”
"Hmm... Let's take a look and go back and write a movie review..."
……
In terms of word-of-mouth, "Cruel Streets" really has no problem!
Shen Xudong, including the publicity team of the crew, can also feel it, and the most touching person is probably Mr. Chen!
Teacher Chen and Yu Wenle debuted at about the same time...
Well, in fact, Mr. Chen, Yu Wenle, Xie Tingfeng, Wu Yanzu and Feng Delun are all a group of students who emerged after Zheng Yinjian, and now, many people say that in terms of temperament and acting skills, Mr. Chen is the most outstanding and the most optimistic, but unfortunately it was ruined in the "photography exhibition".
In fact, the Hong Kong media in this time period is more optimistic about Yu Wenle and thinks that he is more suitable to be an actor...
But what do you want to say about Yu Wenle?
I can't tell...
Mr. Chen obviously cares about the evaluation of the media, and he has been holding back his strength to prove himself.
"Brutal Streets" is a good proof of this.
Because most of the media is praise.
The interview and publicity are of course mainly based on Mr. Chen, and when asked if he had communicated with Shen Xudong, he said: "I called him to ask him about the background of this character, because I don't know much about what this character carries..."
"At first I spoke Chinese, but my Chinese was terrible, so I spoke English..."
"He's excellent English!"
Of course, I also asked about the feeling of working with Gillian again.
"It feels good, we haven't worked together in almost two years..."
"We're good friends, no dragging!"
Of course, Shen Xudong is also the focus of media interviews, who made him speak wildly before, and even fired a map cannon in the movie!
"From a creative point of view, Hong Kong's gangster movies have strong entertainment attributes, emphasizing "righteousness", and the victory of "justice" over evil in the underworld is too idealistic..."
"Hong Kong's gangster films, "Lame Hao", "The True Color of Heroes", "The Emperor of Shanghai", "Crazy Boy" series of movies, in which the moral judgment standard is extremely binary, morality is good, and if you don't talk about it, it is bad. The protagonist doesn't have to go through too many inner struggles, he only needs to simply protect the good guys and kill the bad guys, so that he can grow bigger step by step, and finally follow the tide of the times to either retire or be unlucky and go to prison. The logic is a little too simple.
This is because most of Hong Kong's film industry in the early years was controlled by gangsters, who tried to break into the mainstream and glorify themselves. ”
"Of course, there are also excellent works, such as "Prison Situation" and "School Situation", which can better show the obscene side of the gangsters, reflecting the tragic situation of ordinary people's lives being infiltrated at that time."
"Actually, I have always believed that what an excellent film and television work should do is not to have correct values, but to look good. From this point of view, Hong Kong-made gangster films are doing well! ”
"But now it's the age of the Internet, we talk about how creation should keep pace with the times, and now we still sing the praises of gangster righteousness, and no audience will believe it..."
"That's why I say that the essence of gangster movies has changed..."
……
Propaganda is to cooperate with the media's questions, no matter how strange the media's questions are, how much you don't want to answer, or be patient...
】
Because your film is counting on them to cover the promotional film!
Shen Xudong is very patient, and in his opinion, Mr. Chen is also quite patient.
It's not the bad temper that the media legends say...
Shen Xudong had only contacted him on this mobile phone before, and met a real person...
I'm still very excited - Mr. Chen is the only star in the circle who treats the audience as his own person, eats meat by himself, and does not forget to let everyone feast their eyes and drink soup!
I have an audience in my heart...
What is the virtue and art of Shuangxin, this is it.
It is said that Mr. Chen is very fashionable in both appearance and dress, wearing a roll-neck shirt with a light-colored sweater, with a thin figure and handsome eyebrows.
Especially when laughing, the corners of the mouth are pulled out at an oblique angle, which makes it even more hanging.
Bad boys are the most attractive to women!
Teacher Chen is also observing Shen Xudong...
Shen Xudong caliper, white shirt with jeans, height close to 1.85 meters...
The first feeling is very handsome!
Shen Xudong took the initiative to greet and stretched out his hand: "Edison, we finally met." ”
Teacher Chen hugged him directly: "Writer Shen... I didn't expect you to be so young! ”
"I'm 21..."
"I'm four years older than you!"
"But you come BJ, I'm sure I'll entertain you... I'll take you to something good later! ”
“… BJ delicious? Roast duck? ”
Shen Xudong waved his hand: "BJ is not only roast duck... Fried noodles, mutton shabu, sheep scorpions, dairy sheep fried cakes, donkey rolling... By the way, I'll take you to a bowl of bean juice first! ”
The accompanying staff immediately reminded: "... We only had an hour to eat and were about to head to the airport... The next stop is Shanghai..."
"yes... Let's have a bite to eat. ”
Teacher Chen: "... If you don't have time, you can go to McDonald's! ”
"Just in time..."
Shen Xudong waved his hand, took Mr. Chen and director Zheng Baorui to find a nearby beef noodle restaurant: "Let's deal with it, eat some... Waiter, come to three..."
After ordering a good dish, Shen Xudong asked Zheng Baorui: "Why is Mr. Chen here?" What about Gillian? ”
“… She's preparing for a concert in Singapore, and she doesn't have time..."
"The Emperor is really a cheat!"
It's nothing more than "Cruel Streets", in which the Emperor did not invest ... Otherwise, how could the heroine disappear at this juncture?
When the face came up, Mr. Chen looked at Shen Xudong and suddenly said, "I heard that Mr. Shen usually likes to play photography?" ”
“… Well, I'm mainly photographing landscapes or something! ”
"Then we can exchange tips... I love photography too! ”
