Chapter 354: Cocktail Party
In addition to publicity, the film premiere is also a social occasion for filmmakers. Generally, after the premiere, there will be a reception for the guests who came to thank them.
Because the premiere of "Subway to Spring" was scheduled early, many domestic filmmakers who participated in the exhibition had not yet arrived, so a reception was not held. Of course, saving money is one thing, after all, a two-hour cocktail party in a restaurant on Lido Island during the festival is too high for tens of thousands of euros.
After the premiere of "Looking for a Gun", a reception was held, and the Huayi brothers were rich in the end, and they heard Zhang Baibai and Liu Struggle say that the reception was very rich, and they all had big lobsters or something.
There was also a reception after the premiere of "Spring in a Small Town", which was held in an open-air restaurant not far from the Palais du Cinema, which was relatively low-key. It's just that Gong Li, the biggest guest who came to attend the premiere today, said goodbye after watching the movie and did not appear at the reception, which disappointed many reporters who came to take pictures and interviews.
Xu Jinglei didn't come either, and many people saw Gong Li's cold reception to her before, which made her very embarrassed, and she left in a hurry after barely attending the premiere.
After many years, Li Tang learned by chance that Gong Li had a good relationship with the daughter of a famous family. A director's ex-girlfriend and a director Chen's ex-wife are always a little sympathetic.
And the daughter of a famous family, known as a "talented girl", once had a very funny evaluation of Wang Shuo and the original partner and Xu Jinglei, but Xu Jinglei was labeled as "an arrogant junior" inside and out.
Although Gong Li once had the same experience as Xu Jinglei, she belongs to the relatively low-key kind, after all, this kind of thing is very disgraceful.
Today, the two met head-on, a former junior met an arrogant junior, values may make her instinctively disgusted, but at the same time, she may secretly admire the courage of the other party. If he had half of the arrogance of the other party back then, maybe he would have been able to take down the director, instead of procrastinating for ten years without results.
Because of this, this kind of admiration can easily turn into jealousy and disgust, the two emotions are superimposed, and it is strange that Gong Li has a good face for Xu Jinglei.
Neither of them came, so Li Tang became the target of the reporter's pursuit.
"Li Tang, do you feel after watching "Spring in a Small Town"?"
"I think it's very touching, and the performances of the actors are very good." Li Tang replied perfunctorily.
"What do you think is the difference between this version of "Spring in a Small Town" and the original "Spring in a Small Town" by Mr. Fei Mu?"
This question is a bit provocative.
Li Tang glanced at the reporter with a Hong Kong accent and said: "I think the biggest difference between this movie and the original version is that Director Grange Zhuang expressed his respect to Mr. Fei Mu, a film master who has been buried for a long time, in his own way!" ”
After that, he stopped accepting interviews and walked straight in.
To tell the truth, although the Hong Kong reporter just now had an obviously provocative element, the question he asked was indeed on point. Individually, the just-premiered "Spring in a Small Town" is indeed an artistic masterpiece. But as long as you have read the original version, you will find that this one of Grange Zhuang is actually not much new. Therefore, if this version of "Spring in a Small Town" shot by Grange Zhuang is a masterpiece, it is by no means a masterpiece of Grange Zhuang, it is still Mr. Fei Mu's masterpiece.
"Senior brother!"
A slender woman walked in front of her, a little like Wu Qianlian at first glance, but she was taller than Wu Qianlian, and she looked better, but her temperament was very high, which gave people a feeling of being a lady.
Hu Jing...... Oh, I'm sorry, I should call you Hu Jingfan now. Congratulations, you did a great job! ”
Li Tang smiled and stepped forward to shake hands with her, but the other party enthusiastically opened his arms and hugged him, and then saw a flash light on the side.
The picture was taken of a man with a sunny face.
"Teacher Xin Baiqing, hello!"
Li Tang was very impressed by this performance in the movie, and in the first half of the year, the TV drama channel of Shanghai Cable TV happened to broadcast a TV series "Redemption" starring him, in which he played the role of a prison guard. To be honest, this TV series made Li Tang really know the prison guards for the first time, and Xin Baiqing acted very well.
From the actor's point of view, his performance is very restrained, and there will be no so-called "explosive acting" performance that yells or cries bitterly, in the jargon, it is the kind that moisturizes things silently. If you look closely, you will find that many of the details of his performance are handled very reasonably, giving people a dazzling feeling.
"Don't don't, let's talk about the two of us, just call your name, the teacher will never dare to be it." Xin Baiqing hurriedly said.
He graduated from the 93rd grade of the Chinese Opera Performance Department, graduated in 97, and was admitted to the Experimental Theater with Li Tang's ex-girlfriend, which is now Mandarin. In recent years, as Li Tang has become famous, he also has a certain understanding of Li Tang.
However, compared with Li Tang and his ex-girlfriend, Xin Baiqing is obviously much luckier, he and his current wife are also classmates in college, they started to fall in love when they were in college, and after graduation, they were assigned to the same unit, so they naturally achieved positive results.
His wife Zhu Yuanyuan is actually more famous than him, as early as a few years ago, he starred in the hit drama "The Happy Life of Poor Zhang Damin" with Liang Guanhua of Renyi, and also won the Golden Eagle Award in one fell swoop.
Xin Baiqing is a very gentle person at first glance, and he is always smiling when he speaks, which is particularly affinity, which makes people feel good.
"Your performance in the movie is definitely worthy of the title of teacher." Li Tang laughed and joked at this time.
said, and said to Hu Jingfan: "You also acted very well, in the end, we are proud of the play." ”
In fact, this former Hu Jing was very outstanding during his school days, not to mention the kind of film and television drama popularity, but the kind that shines on the school drama stage.
A schoolgirl who is a famous person and an unknown senior just know each other, and there is not much intersection. And since Li Tang graduated, it was the first time I saw this senior sister today. At this time, the familiarity and enthusiasm are somewhat with the meaning of "no one asks about the poor in the downtown area, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains". But this is the social reality, it is the same everywhere.
Hu Jingfan showed a shy look at this time and said, "Senior brother, don't boast, especially in front of Teacher Xin Baiqing." You must know that when filming, I was often scolded by the director, and Mr. Xin Baiqing helped me a lot. ”
Li Tang also nodded with a worried face: "No wonder you and Teacher Xin Baiqing are very compatible in the movie, and you have a full sense of tacit understanding!" ”
Xin Baiqing, who was on the side, finally couldn't help it, and hurriedly interjected: "Tsk, please don't make trouble between the two of you, don't be a teacher Xin Baiqing, and be laughed at by others." Come on! Come on! ”
Several people couldn't help but laugh.
This is how people interact with each other, and a few words that smell like each other can bring each other closer.
"What are you talking about, so lively?"
At this time, a fat middle-aged woman came over with a handsome guy.
"Sister Xiaowan!"
"Sister Xiaowan!"
The one who came was Li Xiaowan of Rong Xinda, one of the investors of "Spring in a Small Town", Hu Jingfan and Xin Baiqing greeted this person with a smile, looking very respectful.
"Mr. Li!"
Li Tang also took the initiative to stretch out his hand at this time.
He and Li Xiaowan are also familiar with each other, she is Zhou Xun's agent, he and Zhou Xun have known each other when they were filming "Suzhou River", including last year to participate in the Venice Film Festival, including when they later filmed "Shooting the Condor".
"Li Tang, thank you for coming!" Li Xiaowan shook his hand warmly, pointed to the handsome guy next to him and introduced: "This is Wu Jun, a contracted actor of our company." ”
This handsome guy is another male protagonist in "Spring in a Small Town", and he is also the titular male number one ranked before Teacher Xin Baiqing.
"Hello!"
While Li Tang stretched out his hand to say hello, he wondered in his heart: No wonder!
In the original version of "Spring in a Small Town", Dai Liyan played by this handsome guy is the absolute male lead. In the original version, Shi Yu, who was once the old dean of Chinese youth art and was known as the "pioneer of the experiential school" in the Chinese drama industry, vividly interpreted the image of a seriously ill squire.
And this Dai Liyan only has a form and no god, and it can't be said that he was beaten by Teacher Xin Baiqing and Hu Jingfan in the whole movie, but a discerning person knows that the gap is obvious at a glance.
But since he is Rong Xinda's contracted actor, it is not surprising, after all, of course the father of the gold owner wants to praise his own people, but it's a pity that the baby is not angry!
Facing Li Tang, this handsome guy named Wu Jun lowered his posture, held Li Tang's hand with both hands, bent down and said, "Teacher Li, hello!" I used to hear Sister Zhou Xun mention you! ”
Oh, yes, as Rong Xinda's contracted actor, he has cooperated with Zhou Xun many times, such as Li Longji in "Daming Palace Ci", and Liang Sicheng, who played Zhou Xun's husband in "April Day in the World", etc.
Zhou Xun is definitely the most popular Xiaohuadan in China now, following the hit of "Orange is Red" at the beginning of the year, two more movies have been released one after another.
Since Zhou Xun was mentioned, Li Tang also smiled and said, "Sister Xiaoxun is very good, I haven't seen her for a long time." ”
"Well, that's good!" Wu Jun nodded hurriedly.
said, glanced at Li Xiaowan, and said excitedly: "Next month, I will collaborate with Sister Zhou Xun on a new play." ”
Yo, it is obvious that this is the object of Rong Xinda's current support, and this treatment is more than Chen Kun.
"That's hello."
If he and Xin Baiqing had the same smell when they first met, and they had a feeling of sympathy for each other, then they were completely insensitive with this Wu Jun, and they just maintained their politeness on the surface.
It's just that the arrival of him and Li Xiaowan broke the relaxed atmosphere between Li Tang, Xin Baiqing and Hu Jingfan, and everyone could only chat about some soup without being salty.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for him to see Grange Zhuang beckoning to him: "Li Tang, you are here, come here!" ”
The first more, there is
