Chapter 433: Doomed to Failure

"Smack!"

Jiang Wen slapped it heavily on the table, glared and said, "This paragraph must be kept, otherwise there will be no such energy!" Jin'er, do you understand? ”

As he spoke, the probe asked Li Tangdao, "Xiao Li, what do you say?" ”

"I don't care." Li Tang shrugged his shoulders and did not express an opinion.

He didn't expect that the storyline of Zou Jie's attempt to violate his adopted daughter Hua in the script that he was most disgusted with was not mentioned yet, but director Hou Yong proposed to revise it.

This paragraph is described in the original book, but the movie is a movie, and the spread of the movie is greater, and Hou Yong is worried that he will not be able to pass the censorship of such a paragraph.

In fact, those writers are very bad, and at the beginning, Zou Jie was portrayed as the first party member in the school, excellent in character and learning, and volunteered to work in difficult places. But in the end, he became a despicable character who tried to violate his adopted daughter, and the contrast was particularly great.

Adapting such a storyline into a script will naturally have violent contradictions and conflicts, which can achieve a particularly good dramatic effect, but I always feel that you are deliberately alluding to something.

It's not that Hou Yong wants to change it, but when the script was submitted for review, someone put forward this opinion, although there is the operation of China Film and Profiteering Huayi, and the filming permit was successfully obtained, but recently someone gave him kind advice, so as not to cause trouble when it was submitted for review in the future.

For Li Tang, this plot is just like what Jiang Wen said, it will be boring after taking it away, but he can't accept it from the bottom of his heart. Although after a period of psychological construction, if he insists on acting, he can act. Of course, if he doesn't play the best, he can create the role of Zou Jie without any burden.

When Jiang Wen heard this, he was immediately dissatisfied: "Tsk, Xiao Li, I don't mean you." Why are you so old-fashioned at a young age, and you don't have any responsibility at all! You also came out of the play, and they all said that you have a good eye for picking scripts, can't you see it? Can this work the same? ”

Li Tang said unhurriedly: "Actually, I don't think it's a big problem to change it or not, it turns out that this paragraph in the script certainly has a strong dramatic conflict." But Director Hou's opinion is also reasonable, they all say that rumors can kill people, especially in the era when spitting stars can drown people, reputation is often higher than life. Moreover, Zou Jie is such an excellent person, he will cherish his feathers even more, and he can't stand the pressure of public opinion, so he will be a tragic figure, so I think it's good, at least there will be no controversy, right? ”

As soon as Li Tang's words fell, Hou Yong continued: "That's right, I'm worried about this." After going back and submitting it for review, it will definitely not pass, and it will have to be changed when the time comes, so why bother? It's better to change it now. ”

Hearing that the two of them were in the same gear, Jiang Wen was even more dissatisfied, he belonged to the kind of spiritual cleanliness, especially when it came to movies, if he felt that it could be better, he would resolutely not give up.

"Tsk, look at what you two said, why is it so easy to compromise? Please, it's a movie! It's art! I have to keep improving, or I won't make this movie at all. ”

"Uh......"

Hou Yong looked bad, looked at Jiang Wen who was excited, and then at the calm Li Tang, and hesitated: "Otherwise, these two versions will be filmed." ”

Jiang Wen was barely satisfied when he heard this, but he couldn't look down on Hou Yong's kind of muddy approach, and shouted: "That's right, when the time comes to submit it for review, send it up for trial first, everyone do the work, what if it passes!" That's all there is to the censorship, you have to reason with them......"

Just as Jiang Wen was talking energetically, Li Tang suddenly said: "But what if the reason doesn't make sense?" ”

“……”

Now it's Jiang Wen's turn to be speechless, if the truth made sense, his "The Devil is Coming" would not have been banned, including himself, he would not have been banned for five years, and now he has only watched it dry.

In fact, Li Tang felt that Jiang Wen was a little too nitpicky, and the main line of this drama is the unfortunate love experience of the three generations of mothers and daughters of Jasmine, Li, and Hua. The character of Zou Jie is the hero of the second story if it sounds good, and it is the condiment if it is not good. The role of the condiment is to set off the stubborn character of the character Li because of the injury of childhood, Zou Jie's death is the last straw that destroys her, as for how she died, is it important?

Of course, in the eyes of the creators, no scene is superfluous, but in the eyes of the audience, it may be a simple storyline, and they will only pay attention to the harm caused by Li to Zou Jie, to put it bluntly, they are self-inflicted. will not bother with why Zou Jie committed suicide. At most, the storyline of Zou Jie's attempt to violate his adopted daughter Hua will be regarded as satisfying the evil taste hidden in his heart.

After several days of discussion and debate, the script was finally framed. Li Tang also took the time to go back to his hometown, everything was fine at home, and after Lao Li had Aunt Xiao by his side, Li Tang was a lot more relieved outside.

Most of the filming locations of "Jasmine Blossom" are in Chedun Film and Television City, and some of the exterior scenes need to be filmed in the urban area. However, in the second story, Zou Jie's hometown will go to Dongshan Town on the edge of Taihu Lake in Suzhou to film. It was the filming location for the movie "Spring in a Small Town" and the TV series "Orange is Red".

In addition, the producer of "Jasmine Blossom" is the director of "Spring in a Small Town".

"Spring in a Small Town" is the comeback of Grange after a decade of banning directors, even though the film won the San Marco Award in the Swimming Stream section at last year's Venice Film Festival. But anyone who understands understands that this award is more of a tribute to this "indomitable director" in the eyes of Westerners.

His "Spring in a Small Town" is just a copy of director Fei Mu's classics.

Perhaps it was the ten-year ban on directing that completely drained his spirit, so that the director, who was once very prolific throughout the eighties, resigned from his position as director of Beijing Film Studio at the beginning of the year and went to his alma mater, Nortel, as a master's tutor in the directing department.

This time, as the producer of "Jasmine Blossom", he is more to cheer for Hou Yong, an old classmate, little brother, and old partner.

As for the female No. 1, Zhang Ziyi didn't rush from Hong Kong to the crew to report until the day before the start of filming. In the past two years, she has been filming "2046" directed by Wang Jiawei, but this movie has been made intermittently, which does not affect her from taking on other movies.

Hou Yong was very low-key, and he didn't hold any start-up press conference in a big fight, that is, on the night when the heroine Zhang Ziyi arrived at the crew to report for duty, he gathered many creators and actors to hold a small banquet in the Chinese restaurant of Huating Hotel where the main creator stayed, which can be regarded as a start-up banquet, and everyone got to know each other at the same time.

Because "Jasmine Blossom" was filmed in Shanghai, in addition to the main actors, the other supporting roles are all local actors in Shanghai, such as the hairdresser Lao Wang who coveted Mo in the first story was played by Huang Daliang, an actor from Shanghai Film Studio, who is a professional villain.

In fact, when I read the script, I found that the role of the barber Lao Wang was very vividly written. Lao Wang not only had an affair with Mo's mother in the play, but also coveted Mo's beauty all the time, and always took advantage of Mo's hair to maneuver his hands and feet.

The reason why I say that this character is written is because in Shanghai, both in the past and now, rich families often invite barbers to come to their homes to do their hair. And there is a saying in Shanghai: the indecent is not the shaver. It's said that when the barber is doing his hair, he makes meat jokes, uses his hands and feet, and even has too many things like rolling his head with old customers.

Later, Li Tang learned that Su Tong, the original author of "Jasmine Blossom", was a native of Suzhou, no wonder he described such a wonderful image of this detail.

For example, the director in the play is Lin Dongfu, a famous voice actor and host in Shanghai, this is Lao Koehler. It's always a straight suit, shiny leather shoes, and a fresh head. This guy was first a dubbing actor in a dubbing studio, and later became a variety show host on Shanghai TV, but he especially loves drama, so he came to the drama center to hang out when he had nothing to do, and he also starred in the French satirical comedy "Art" with Xu Guangtou, and he is a supernumerary actor in the drama center.

and the role of Zou Jie's mother is also a senior actress from the drama center, Xi Meijuan.

These are basically Li Tang's old acquaintances, and they haven't seen each other for a long time. In the past, Li Tang may have been a newcomer to the Drama Center, but now Li Tang is not only the most famous and outstanding young actor in the Drama Center, but also the owner of a film and television company, and has a certain right to speak. Therefore, everyone does not dare to underestimate it, and it is more about the tone of equality between peers, and even deliberately showing goodwill.

"Hey, Mr. Li, I heard the director say that your role has been decided?"

Zhang Ziyi, who had been very reserved during the period, saw the opportunity to pull Li Tang aside and whisper.

As I said before, as long as there is no prefix in front of the director in the circle, what kind of Director Chen, Director Feng, Director Hou, etc., the one who only calls the word "director" is Director Zhang Yimou.

So Li Tang didn't misunderstand, just nodded at her.

"No wonder, I said, how did the Jin Zhutou in the previous script become Li Zhutou again." Zhang Ziyi smiled, winked at Li Tang as she spoke, and said, "Teacher Li, you are still so good, you actually robbed Jin Chengwu of the role recommended by Anle Company." ”

Li Tang looked at her and couldn't help but quip: "Are you quite disappointed?" ”

Because in the director's new movie, Zhang Ziyi's little sister and Li Zhutou have a lot of intimate scenes, think about whether Jin Chengwu is handsome or the little king of Asia.

As a result, Zhang Ziyi's eyes looked him up and down, and joked: "You're not bad!" ”

Well, although Li Tang likes to mess with flowers and grass, he doesn't dare to provoke this sister, not to mention that it's not his own dish.

He immediately diverted the topic and said, "Are you going to participate in the Oscars on the 23rd?" ”

"Of course!"

Speaking of Oscar, Zhang Ziyi's eyes suddenly lit up, and there was light in her eyes. Although this is not the first time she has attended the Oscars. As early as two years ago, she had already stepped on the red carpet as a member of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" that attracted the attention of the whole world.

"I've taken all the leave, and I'll leave on the 20th." Zhang Ziyi said with a smile.

Then he said: "So this time, let's work harder and strive to finish the second story before the 20th." ”

Li Tang was a little surprised, and couldn't help but say, "Is it so urgent?" ”

It's only been a few days since I understood that the 8th was turned on to the 20th?

Zhang Ziyi said: "There is still a lot of preparation, I have to be there two days in advance." ”

Before she was busy trying on dresses and choosing jewelry in Hong Kong, everything was in preparation for the red carpet of the Oscars on March 23.

However, Li Tang felt that she might be doomed to disappointment this time, because in the memory of his previous life, the red carpet was temporarily canceled before this Oscar ceremony due to the outbreak of the Iraq war.

The second more,It's a bit stuck when this chapter code.,It may be a little unsatisfactory, please bear with me.。
