Chapter 156: Little Tail Fish
"Xiao Li, congratulations!"
"Brother Li, congratulations, congratulations!"
"Li Tang, you have won the award again, you have to treat yourself!"
When Li Tang returned to the crew, it was no surprise that he attracted a wave of congratulations, no matter how he said it, he could be regarded as returning with honor this time. The main reason is that there are too few domestic film awards in recent years, in addition to Huabiao, Golden Rooster, and Bai, although there is also a so-called Directors Guild Award to learn from Hollywood, but this award is irregular, it seems that if you are happy, you will award an award, and if you are unhappy, there will be no movement for several years. The rest is that the Beijing University Student Film Festival is impressive, and its influence is increasing year by year, otherwise there will be no big leaders of the General Administration and many big names attending the closing ceremony and award ceremony.
However, with his official response at the "Very Summer" movie exchange meeting, the change of roles in "Smiling Proud Jianghu" has begun to ferment in the media.
For this reason, Li Tang went to report to Zhang Dabeard as soon as he came back. It's a big deal, but the posture must be put on. After this period of in-depth contact, he can also see that although Lao Zhang has a small belly and a strong desire for power, he is a smooth donkey, and it doesn't cost money to say some good and soft words, so why not do it?
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lao Zhang holding a mobile phone, Lao Zhang waved his hand at him to signal him to keep quiet, and then pointed to the sofa and asked him to sit down.
"You reporters don't chase after the wind, this is not a cool question......
Listening to the tone of the phone, the other end was an interview with a reporter, and Lao Zhang's tone was obviously impatient.
I don't know what the reporter said, Lao Zhang suddenly raised his voice and said: "It's true, it's not that he hasn't read the script thoroughly, and it doesn't matter if he can't catch the characters, the key is that his state is not good!" Do you see what I mean? ”
Lao Zhang accented the word "state".
Maybe the reporter on the other end of the phone didn't understand what Lao Zhang meant, and Lao Zhang said, "No." It's that he is not engaged and impetuous, and you should understand what I mean, and many people are in this state now......"
"For example, when I made a phone call, it took half an hour, and dozens of people on the scene could only wait, and then the crew simply stipulated that they were not allowed to bring mobile phones into the venue......"
"Yes, there is no way, if it is not responsible to the audience for him, it is better to make a decision early."
"Probably, but you can imagine that we risked such a loss...... Of course, I'm here to say that he's not good, it's bad for him, think for yourself. ”
"Of course Li Tang is very good, as a young actor, he can be recognized by the Beijing University Student Film Festival this time, which in itself shows his ability. No matter what the outside world talks about now, Ling Hu Chong will not change again. ”
Just kidding, Li Tang has been filming for a month, and of course it is impossible to change people.
Then Lao Zhang patiently explained to the reporter on the other end of the phone: "There are many actors who come to ask to play Ling Hu Chong, some are recommended by others, and some are self-recommended by Mao Sui, but our casting range is two or three people, and Li Tang was finally selected because he was one of the candidates before filming started, and his image and temperament are relatively close to the characters." But at that time, the director felt that Shao Bin was the most suitable, so Ling Hu Chong and Li Tang missed out......"
Li Tang, who had been pricking up his ears, couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this, and said in his heart: Lao Zhang is really shameless enough, Shao Bin was obviously hand-picked by you at the beginning, why has he become the director now? This big move makes it really good!
Then Lao Zhang smiled and said: "Unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, this role still fell on Li Tang." has filmed many scenes of him now, Li Tang has performed very well, he is very quick to get started and acceptable, and the director is also very satisfied. The rest of the cast is also in good shape at the moment, and we are still doing what we planned to ......."
When it was over, I didn't know what the reporter on the other end of the phone said, Lao Zhang suddenly said in an aggravated tone: "I think this matter should be used as a lesson for Shao Bin, and he should have a good attitude when he goes to any crew in the future." ”
Hey, this is a rumor that Shao Bin is playing a big name. The bearded man is really black-hearted, this is the rhythm that blackens Shao Bin to death!
Waiting for Zhang Dabeard to hang up the phone, Li Tang deliberately said cautiously: "Am I causing trouble to the crew?" ”
The bearded man waved his hand disapprovingly and said, "It's okay, this matter will have to be disclosed to the media sooner or later." I've been looking for a suitable opportunity, and this is the right opportunity. And you respond very well, only talking about your own business and not about other people's business, which is a very smart thing to do. ”
Saying that, Lao Zhang also took the initiative to hand him a cigarette, and said with a smile: "The crew has prepared a few tables in the evening, which can be regarded as a celebration for you, and everyone will have a lively time together." ”
Li Tang was a little flattered, and hurriedly took out a lighter to help Lao Zhang light a cigarette, and at the same time said gratefully: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang." ”
Although the crew's budget is tight, everyone still has money to eat and drink.
Lao Zhang leaned comfortably on the back of the sofa, took a puff of his cigarette, looked at Li Tang and said, "Did you think I was a little too much for Shao Bin just now?" ”
Li Tang felt that Lao Zhang's words seemed to have something to say, and he was still buried in a pit, so he shook his head and said, "No, seek truth from facts!" ”
Before, he thought that Lao Zhang wanted to keep a low profile about the change of roles, but now it seems that Lao Zhang still seems to be holding back some big moves.
Lao Zhang nodded with satisfaction, and then said with a slightly serious expression: "Have you noticed some reports about your role as Ling Hu Chong in the past two days?" ”
Li Tang shook his head blankly, he was interviewed the day before yesterday, and he didn't pay attention to the news about this in the past two days.
Lao Zhang snorted and said: "Now many media are saying that you took Shao Bin away, and that you are too tender to play Ling Hu Chong, and even that you can't even compare to Shao Bin, because Shao Bin at least has a sense of arrogance." ”
Li Tang was dumbfounded when he heard this, but he keenly felt that someone must be deliberately bringing the rhythm here. After all, this kind of thing is quite common in Hollywood, including on Broadway, and generally speaking, it is smeared and dumped by competitors, such as smearing and suppressing competitors in order to compete for a role, so as to make themselves more advantageous.
But now that he has been filming for a month, no one is competing with him for the role of Linghu Chong, could it be that Shao Bin is pointing the finger at himself in order to wash his name?
Sure enough, Zhang Dabeard exhaled angrily: "This is obviously someone who did it on purpose and deliberately poured dirty water on you, so I must come out and speak and make the truth public." ”
Saying that, Zhang Beard also said with a mocking face: "What else do you want to live in the corner and have your true self." Hmph, what kind of big-tailed wolf are you pretending? ”
Afterwards, Li Tang learned that after he was interviewed and confirmed the news that he played the role of Ling Hu Chong, he actually confirmed the fact that Shao Bin was kicked out of the crew for swiping a big name.
Shao Bin immediately made a crisis public relations, on the one hand, he disseminated a lot of revelations from various insiders through the media, such as Li Tang's appearance is not atmospheric enough, and he is more suitable for playing Lin Pingzhi; For example, Li Tang was quite polite when he first joined the crew, but gradually he also had some possessions, like to call people, etc., the most reliable evidence is that after the crew started filming, Li Tang left the crew without authorization for more than a week because he was dissatisfied with the crew's arrangement.
Shao Bin also came forward for an interview, of course, first of all, he denied the rumors about playing a big name, explaining that the main reason why he was replaced was that his image was wrong, and there was no other reason, and said that there was absolutely no problem with his character and character. also said that he was very nostalgic for the crew of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and then said that he just wanted to be quiet in the face of the slander of netizens and the hot hype of the crew, and he didn't want to be disturbed.
In fact, it is a secret poke and accusation that the crew deliberately hype, and at the same time try to create a tragic character for himself.
Although most of these gossip news appear in tabloids and online media, I have to say more here that with the emergence of online media, especially at present, it is still in the wild stage when the Internet has just begun to prevail, which has greatly reduced the cost of rumors and the spread of various gossip, but these gossip news are popular with the broad masses of the people, and they are particularly easy to be led to rhythm.
So there are many people who sympathize with Shao Bin, and netizens have pointed the finger at the crew and Li Tang himself.
However, some people especially respect the Hong Kong TVB version of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" and the movie version of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" and "Undefeated in the East" series, and for this reason, they also attacked the famous Yue Opera singer Mao Weitao to play the undefeated Dongfang played by Dong Shi and Lin Qingxia, and also ridiculed the director Huang Jianzhong, saying that even if Mao Weitao performed to his satisfaction, he could not prevent the audience from comparing him with the character played by Lin Qingxia who has become a classic role.
The implication is that no matter how good Mao Weitao's performance is, it is better than Lin Qingxia, and in the final analysis, it is Dong Shi Xiaofeng.
This report directly made this famous Yue Opera actress sick.
At this time, the beard finally couldn't hold it back, and in a public interview, he counted the various "crimes" of the "big-tailed wolf" Shao Bin playing a big name, and even almost burst into tears.
As a result, after his clarification and denunciation were reported by the media, a certain southern media published a commentary article about "big-tailed wolves" and "small-tailed fish".
First of all, it pointed out the fact that Shao Bin was Zhang Dabeard in the first place, and most of the audience did not recognize Shao Bin playing Ling Hu Chong at that time, so as to ridicule Zhang Dabeard's poor eyesight, or he prepared a set to cut Shao Bin's "big tail" early. In fact, it is said that Zhang Dabeard's original designation of Shao Bin was a conspiracy, just to use the "change of angle turmoil" to hype.
Second, in response to Lao Zhang's response to the media's remarks about Dong Shi Xiaofeng, he actually rose to the height of the CCTV version's intention to use "culture" to confront Hong Kong and Taiwan's "jokes", and also stepped on the currently popular "Daming Palace Ci", ridiculing the unwritten lines in this drama to show that he is cultured.
At the same time, borrowing Lao Zhang's sentence "Li Tang is the last Linghu Chong", don't respond to the saying that people in Beijing often say: one net does not catch fish, two nets do not catch fish, and three nets catch a small tail fish.
So Li Tang became the little tail fish.
