Chapter 24 Xu Guangtou wants to shoot a mythological drama

The film is not finished, the actor's task is completed. As for whether the film can be completed in the future and whether it can be released, all this is unknown.

The free and easy weekly news at the finale banquet was laughing and laughing throughout the whole process, noisy and noisy, stirring up the atmosphere.

Li Tang offered her a cup: "Sister Xiaoxun, meet again if you have a fate!" ”

Zhou Xun smiled, and said in a crepe manner: "The night rain in the cold river, the old people in the rivers and lakes, why should we have met before." ”

Hey, when did you become so cultured?

Li Tang sounded familiar, but he didn't react for a while.

Zhou Xun looked at him stupidly stunned, and laughed: "Stupid, I don't even know about "New Dragon Gate Inn". ”

Oh, it turned out to be a movie line, and it has nothing to do with culture.

At the end of the song, Zhou Xun rushed to report to the crew of "Daming Palace Ci", and it was said that he would have to train before filming.

Li Tang also returned to a normal life.

Because he starred in two movies in a row, he mixed a role in the large-scale drama "Shang Ying" rearranged by the Drama Center, a real A role.

"Shang Ying" is a traditional drama in the drama center, similar to "Teahouse" in Beijing Renyi, the starring roles are all old artists in the center, and Li Tang plays a supporting role in it as a representative of the young actors in the center.

The rehearsal task is not too heavy, and I usually go home on weekends to accompany my father. He also consigned the old Harleymo back to the countryside, did a major overhaul and maintenance by himself, and spent nearly 10,000 yuan to buy a yellow card of Shanghai A through his father's relationship, and re-registered the license plate.

Due to the ban on motorcycles, the price of local motorcycle license plates has risen rapidly, doubling from last year, almost the same as the price of car license plates auctioned, and it will continue to rise.

Lao Li was very curious about his hands-on ability, and did not ask questions in the face of his son's perfunctory answer. In Lao Li's eyes, when his son becomes sensible day by day, he is satisfied, and nothing else matters.

Life is not turbulent, and occasionally receives calls from her ex-girlfriend, she actually joined the crew of "Daming Palace Ci", playing the role of Anle Princess Li Baoer. She knew that Li Tang and Zhou Xun had just collaborated on "Suzhou River", and whenever she talked about Zhou Xun, there was always a sour taste.

The two are the same age next year, one is from a professional class, and the other is a wild man, but the coffee position is a grade off. The young Taiping played by Zhou Xun is the third female in the play, and she is just a supporting role. And everyone has played the female number one in the movie, but she is still running around the various crews to make soy sauce, and she is called envy, jealousy and hatred in her heart!

The ex-girlfriend was very busy and didn't have time to deliver that to the door, one night Li Tang suddenly shivered and woke up from his dream, changed out of his wet shorts, and inevitably wondered: Should I find a girlfriend?

It's been suppressed for a long time and needs to be released. In addition to increasing the amount of exercise, he no longer refused Xu Guangtou's invitation to eat flower wine.

After the performance of "The Color of Stocks", this drama representing Shanghai's humanistic characteristics was the same as "Under the Eaves of Shanghai" and "Seventy-two Tenants" that year, and received rave reviews for a while.

On this day, Li Tang came to a KTV, pushed open the door of the private room, and oh, it was pitch black and sloppy inside, with energetic disco music, only the projection hanging on the wall flashed and emitted a faint light, and a group of men and women were dancing wildly.

Li Tang thought that he had made a mistake, and was about to withdraw, when he heard Xu Guangtou's voice: "Li Tang, come on, come here." ”

If you look closely, this guy is wearing a fancy hat today, no wonder it is difficult to recognize without reflection.

The music stopped, the lights came on, and Li Tang looked at the group of young ladies who were Yingying Yanyan, and the others were all fox friends who usually played with Xu Guangtou.

After saying hello and sitting down, Li Tang asked, "Didn't you say that the old man was here?" ”

"He is an uncle of liberation and army, and it is inconvenient." Xu Guangtou wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "In addition, you also know that his family has also come to Shanghai." ”

Lao Fu is Xu Guangtou's classmate and good friend, he debuted very early, and as soon as he graduated, he made the movie "Daughter Red", at that time Zhou Xun was a supporting role, he was the male number one, and later was assigned to the army art troupe as an outstanding graduate of the drama.

In the eighties and nineties, the army's art troupe was very popular, and college students like him were treated as officers when they entered, and they could also solve the problem of housing.

As for his family, he is also an alumnus of the opera, one year higher than Li Tang, a beautiful and gentle girl, the kind of good wife and mother. The old man returned to his alma mater to recruit as an outstanding student representative, and he took a fancy to her at a glance, so he recruited her into the art troupe under the pretense of public welfare and private affairs. I don't want that gentle-looking senior sister to be very strong in her bones, and she will be in charge of the merry old man.

This time, the old man came to Shanghai to shoot a TV series, but he didn't expect the senior sister to come along.

"Hehehe."

Li Tang gloated and laughed twice, and said, "Then you go back and say hello to them, see when they have time, and I'll invite them to dinner." ”

"Okay, I'll call tomorrow and ask."

In recent years, red wine with sprite and foreign wine mixed with green tea are popular in KTV, which sells a lot of wine, and secondly, I am afraid of drinking fake wine.

Li Tang didn't drink this, and took a Corona beer and saluted.

After three rounds of drinking, the slightly drunk Xu bald head pulled him aside and said mysteriously: "Someone is looking for me to film." ”

"Movies?"

"No, TV series."

Xu Guangtou may feel that compared to Li Tang's movie, making a TV series by himself is a bit cheap, and he is busy and said: "Does Fan Xiaotian know?" ”

"I don't know."

"Tsk, deputy editor-in-chief of Zhongshan magazine!"

Writers are easy to be respected, "Zhongshan" is a well-known magazine in China, and the title of an associate editor is enough to make people look sideways.

"Oh!"

Although he had never heard of the name, Li Tang was still in awe.

"He has now come out of the magazine and started a cultural and art company, preparing to make a mythological TV series."

"This is okay!" Li Tang's eyes lit up.

Mythological themes have always been very popular, and TV series such as "Journey to the West", "Liao Zhai", and "Jigong" are all memories of their generation. He even thinks that familiar cartoons such as "Strange Tales from the Book of Heaven", "Hulu Baby", "Nezha" and so on can also be remade into movies and TV series.

"What mythology?" He asked again.

"It is related to "Journey to the West", it can be regarded as a prequel story of "Journey to the West". Xu Guangtou was not sure.

"You're playing the monkey?"

"No, the prequel to "Journey to the West" is about the story of the gods, and the monkey has not yet jumped out of the crack in the stone. Listening to Mr. Fan, it is probably a series of stories, and he has just set up a shelf, and he is going to find several Hong Kong screenwriters and mainland screenwriters to create together. ”

"Cut, what can Hong Kong screenwriters write." Li Tang said disdainfully.

Although Hong Kong movies and TV dramas have been extremely popular in the mainland in recent years, he feels that this is caused by the cultural differences between the two places.

Xu Guangtou said thoughtfully: "I have also thought about this, on the one hand, probably to enhance the story; On the other hand, it may also be considered that there is no cultural disconnect in Hong Kong, and there is experience in creating stories about gods and gods...... In short, it's just brainstorming! ”

Although he likes to drink flowers and wine to soak the lady, he is still very pursuing in art, and recently he was planning to engage in avant-garde dramas, but this mythological TV series still attracted him.

You must know that in the West, whether it is "Homer's Epic" or ancient Greek mythology, it has been put on the artistic stage, just like the domestic "Journey to the West", "Fengshen Bang", "Liao Zhai", "Jigong", etc., the artistic value is very high.

And he does not have Li Tang's vision beyond the times, these years the Chinese people are still looking up to foreign culture, and even Hong Kong and Taiwan culture, he feels that a series of mythological and ghost film and television dramas such as "A Chinese Ghost Story" and "The Legend of the White Snake" are still very mature.

What's more, or what he didn't say in his heart, in the past six months, he has watched Li Tang make movies one after another, and his heart is inevitably filled with all kinds of envy and jealousy. Although his drama is very successful, and he is even a strong contender for this year's Magnolia Award, compared with movies and TV series, drama is still niche after all!
