It has been a long time since Anita Mui joined the crew, and there is no reason to match Anita Mui's coffee position. For this reason, the director has made significant changes on the basis of the original third version of the script "Wind, Leaves, Sword, Knife", so that the eldest sister of "Flying Knife Gate" has been promoted to the first protagonist, and she is the final master of the overall situation.

In this way, the other characters naturally become foils. Now that he heard that Anita Mui couldn't come again, and the candidate for the role of the eldest sister was replaced by Song Dandan, Xiao Zhang couldn't help but secretly rejoice.

"Didn't Andy Lau come?" Li Tang approached Zhang Ziyi and asked.

"I didn't come, I heard that there is no way to adjust the schedule." Zhang Ziyi said.

Andy Lau is a big star after all, and now with Brother Cheng Long shifting his work focus to Hollywood, Zhou Xingxing's film production is decreasing, and Andy Lau has become the leading figure in Hong Kong films. He is now not only acting and singing, but also has his own film company, participating in the investment of films, including signing many actors under his umbrella.

Let's put it this way, today's Li Tang is equivalent to a simplified version of Andy Lau.

"You're almost done with that TV show, right?"

"It's coming, it's going to take another month at most." Li Tang said.

It can be seen that Zhang Ziyi always has a sense of superiority that is difficult to hide when mentioning TV series.

Of course, Li Tang wanted to satisfy her as he liked: "What about you?" How did the movie directed by Wang Jiawei go? ”

Xiao Zhang has been filming "2046" directed by Wang Jiawei in recent years, this movie was launched as early as 99, and it was a sensation when it was first started, on the one hand, Wang Jiawei won a series of international awards with "In the Mood for Love", which was the time when the scenery was infinite; On the other hand, it is also because this film brings together a large number of celebrities.

In addition to Liang Chaowei, who had just won the Cannes actor at that time, as the male lead, there was also Takuya Kimura, a Japanese student who was popular all over Asia; In terms of female stars, there are Gong Li, Zhang Yanyu, Wang Fei, and the two newly rising Mou girls Zhang Ziyi and Dong Jie.

And during the filming, there were also a lot of gossip news that people talked about, such as the scandal between Liang Chaowei and Dong Jie, and it was precisely because of this that Carina Lau took the initiative to invite Ying to join the crew.

It's just that when it comes to this movie, Xiao Zhang shook his head in confusion and said, "I don't know yet, this time it took half a month to shoot, and there are just a few shots to shoot back and forth...... Well, you may not believe it, even I can't tell what I've been shooting in the past half a month. ”

It is rumored that director Wang Jiawei has serious procrastination and demanding requirements in filming, and it is said that all the actors who work with him are tortured by him to death, but acting in his movies can win awards, which makes those celebrities and big names want to stop.

Li Tang is quite interested in this, because among the directors he has worked with, such as Lou Ye, it is already very difficult to do it, and it is a little difficult for him to imagine how difficult Wang Jiawei will be?

"No, what exactly have you filmed in the past half month? You can't even have a script, right? Li Tang asked curiously.

As a result, Xiao Zhang smiled bitterly: "You guessed it, there is really no script!" ”

"That ......"

"Director Wang's filming is different from other directors' filming, he pays more attention to inner drama and emphasizes artistic conception. He likes to put music on set and then have you play to the rhythm of the music in front of the camera...... Let's put it this way, it's about letting you find inspiration space in the music, and then letting the characters wander through that space. In short, it's a very mysterious thing, if you don't find the feeling, you don't know what to play, how to act, you can only NG over and over again. ”

“……”

Listening to Xiao Zhang's complaints, Li Tang was also speechless. He has experienced that the director did not give the script in advance, and this is how "Suzhou River" was filmed at the beginning, but at least the director will tell what to shoot before each scene starts. In the final analysis, there is actually a script, but what the director needs is your first reaction or freshness.

You can play music on the spot, so that you can perform the so-called artistic conception in the music, what the hell is this?

Of course, every director will always have his own style, Wang Jiawei has made so many excellent movies, there must be his excellence. When it comes to music, I have to say that in Wang Jiawei's films, music is always an important part that cannot be ignored.

I remember that when Li Tang watched Wang Jiawei's "East Evil and West Poison" for the first time, when the famous episode "Heaven and Earth Lonely Shadow Let Me Go" sounded, he still clearly remembered that the goosebumps all over his body rose.

Compared with Wang Jiawei, director Zhang Yimou has a completely different style, he tries his best to convey his intentions to the actors clearly and completely, and express them through the actors' performances. Such a performance may not seem difficult, but the freedom of the relative actors will also be greatly reduced.

The more Xiao Zhang said that it was evil, the more Li Tang had an expectation in his heart that he would be able to cooperate with director Wang Jiawei if he had the opportunity in the future. There is always a strong curiosity about some unknown things, and I always want to experience it for myself.

Song Shan auditioned for a bit of a long time, and in addition to chatting, Li Tang and Zhang Ziyi naturally talked about the scripts they had read. Compared with the second version of "People in the Rivers and Lakes" that Li Tang has watched, Xiao Zhang has watched it all from the first version of "Bright Moon Flying Knife" to the third version of "Wind, Leaves, Swords, Knives".

Li Putou played by Li Tang is just like what the director said at the beginning, this character has basically stood up, and there will be no big adjustments. The main thing to adjust is the little sister played by Xiao Zhang, and the clue of the "Flying Knife Gate" to which the little sister belongs.

In particular, the third edition of "Wind, Leaves, Sword, Knife" is a bit of Infernal Affairs. Li Putou played by Li Tang is an undercover agent in the imperial court, and Liu Zhutou played by Andy Lau is an undercover agent in the imperial court as a "flying knife door".

But the most classic thing is that each character in this third version of the script has a dual identity, and it is also interspersed with the emotional entanglements between Xiaomei, Li and Liu, which is more like a super infernal affair that condenses love and hate.

After waiting for about twenty minutes, I finally heard a noisy sound of footsteps in the hallway, and then the doors of the lounge were pushed open.

It can be said that before people arrive, laughter arrives first.

"Hahaha, Ziyi, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

Song Dan, who had neat short hair, walked in from outside, and when he saw Li Tang, he also greeted him very warmly: "Yo, Li Tang is also here, hello hello!" ”

"Hello, Mr. Song!" Li Tang got up and shook her hand politely.

Zhang Ziyi hugged her very affectionately.

Song Dan used to be the image of a sketch actor in Li Tang's impression. At first, I thought they were from the Northeast, but later I learned that they were not only natives of Beijing, but also actors in Beijing.

And the family is also very big, parents were literary and artistic workers who entered the city with the army in their early years, and his father was the leader of the Beijing Literary Association, a proper big courtyard disciple.

It's no wonder that Zhang Ziyi behaved so enthusiastically, and after hugging, she asked anxiously: "Sister Dandan, how did you try?" ”

Song Dan pursed his lips and smiled: "It's okay, anyway, I have to ask you to take care of it when the time comes!" ”

As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Li Tang.

"Wow, that's great! Sister Dandan, I have always hoped to have the opportunity to cooperate with you! As for taking care of you, only you take care of me, how dare I take care of you! ”

Zhang Ziyi is really happy, Song Sing's successful audition alone shows that Anita Mui is completely out, which means that she, the first protagonist, is settled.

"Teacher Song, congratulations! Thank you for your kind attention! Li Tang naturally congratulated Song Danshan in a playful manner.

After so many years in the circle, he also knows the way of relationships. Especially in the development of the capital, it is an unavoidable hurdle to engage in relations, especially in a literary and artistic family like Song Dandan, who has a deep background, and it is not allowed to be offended.

People may not necessarily help you with anything, but if you want to do bad things for you, you definitely have the ability to do something bad.

I'm sorry for delaying it for so long, so let's sort out my thoughts today and update normally from tomorrow. A few days ago, the main thing was that the high fever was a little recurrent, but today the fever is gone, the cough is terrible, and the loss of taste and smell is particularly uncomfortable, and it may take another week to fully recover.
