In a small bar in Venice, melodious blues turn the time into tranquility, and the dark beer in the draught glass exudes a rich, bitter malt aroma.

Chen Li'an took a big sip and felt that the more he drank this thing, the more refreshing he became. It's almost as good as the effect of black coffee.

"Your speech today is great." Ji Fa took a sip of beer before he said with emotion: "You are a mature artist now, and you have learned to package yourself." ”

Chen Li'an: "." Is it true that a mature artist will wrap himself? Wouldn't it be too sloppy.

"Do you know why a lot of art critics don't have their own work, but they still have a place in the art world?" Ji Fa asked meaningfully.

"Mouthpiece? A spokesperson pushed out by an art dealer? Chen Li'an asked with a frown.

Ji Fa shook his head and said: "Of course, this is the main reason, but there is another reason, that is, art is never only a work, but also a part of the composition of art. ”

Chen Li'an suddenly thought of his experience before he came into contact with art, when he was a child, he couldn't understand the so-called artworks, and he couldn't understand the so-called Fauvism, but the history books said that Picasso was very powerful, and he naturally thought that those paintings were very powerful, but where was the power?

I didn't see the meaning of what was written in the book, but I subconsciously thought that the painting was what it meant, and I thought that this was a very powerful painting, and that this painter was a very powerful artist.

Combined with such an experience, it is easy to understand the meaning of the existence of art critics.

Ji Fa looked at Chen Li'an and said: "An artist can't just create, but also show his artistic accomplishment to others, so that people will think that Ling's paintings are very powerful and thoughtful." ”

Chen Li'an glanced at Ji Fa and said unhappily: "It is meaningful, as if my paintings are completely boastful." ”

"But how many people can really understand your paintings?" Ji Fa reached out and asked for another glass of beer before saying, "So it is necessary for someone to tell them what the painting means, what its value is, and what artistic concept its creator has." ”

Chen Li'an drank the beer in the cup and said, "It's troublesome, I hope I can skip this stage soon." ”

"Come on, this Biennale Art Exhibition has already spread your ideas." After Ji Fa explained, he turned his head to look at the door of the bar and said, "Why hasn't Bai Qing come back yet?" ”

"Maybe you won't want to go back to a craft shop." Chen Li'an said nonchalantly, Bai Qing has a soft spot for Venetian masks, and he has bought no less than ten masks in the past few days.

Ji Fa hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled, "You are very excited every time she buys a new mask, your hobby is very unique, maybe I should buy a mask too." ”

"This topic is not for us, so let's stop it." Chen Li'an hurriedly said.

Ji Fa looked at Chen Li'an's eyes, and suddenly leaned forward and said, "Why are you resisting me so much?" ”

Chen Li'an looked at Ji Fa's beautiful blue eyes and said, "I just want to maintain a pure relationship, which is good for our cooperation." ”

"Maybe it would be better to go a little deeper?" Ji Fa couldn't help but say.

Chen Li'an shook his head and said, "In that case, I won't be able to bargain with you." ”

"Haha, a very realistic answer." Ji Fa couldn't help laughing, and then said: "This is your shortcoming, you are too gentle and considerate to women, and you are very generous. ”

Chen Li'an retorted angrily: "Shouldn't this be an advantage? ”

"It's a plus if you're only with a woman, but obviously you're not." Ji Fa drank beer and said, "You will definitely be unlucky because of women in the future." ”

Chen Li'an pursed his lips, not thinking that he would be planted in the hands of a woman, unless someone could capture his heart!

It's just that this person doesn't know when it will appear, and Chen Li'an sometimes wonders if he will fall in love with a woman fanatically, and if so, where is she? What kind of person will it be?

After a while, Ji Fa suddenly asked, "After you return to China tomorrow, how long will it take to come back?" I'm going back to France in a few days. ”

"In August, when the festival started, I have to go back to work tomorrow, and I don't know why I'm so busy." Chen Li'an sighed and said.

"You're really busy, I've been abroad twice this year and filmed two films, and I feel like a waste compared to you."

At Beijing International Airport, Zhou Gongzi, who came to pick up the airport, looked at Chen Li'an and said with some envy.

Chen Li'an sat in the car, looked at the newly bought Audi A6 and said, "The car is not bad, how was the result of your recent audition?" ”

"It's not good, not even a supporting role." Zhou Gongzi skillfully started the car, adjusted the air conditioner, and then said with some frustration: "Am I not suitable for acting, why don't people use me?" ”

Chen Li'an enjoyed the cold breeze of the air conditioner, and said lightly: "No, it's because you are not famous, and your acting skills are not so good that the director can ignore the bonus brought by fame, you should take this opportunity to sign up for a class to learn acting systematically." ”

"I'll think about it." Zhou Gongzi said with some confusion.

Chen Li'an was not worried about Zhou Gongzi's future, but he was afraid that his appearance would incite the wings of the butterfly, which would make her future life deviate greatly.

According to the normal trajectory, Zhou Gongzi will have to wait until the movie Suzhou Creek to emerge, and now I don't know if there is a chance.

Chen Li'an propped his head and looked at the scenery outside the car window, and suddenly said: "If you don't want to learn acting, find a home to teach English, in short, don't let yourself be wasted." ”

"It's deserted, it's a big deal to let you raise me." Zhou Gongzi suddenly said a little playfully.

"I can afford to raise you, but will you be a canary?" Chen Li'an took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, and said slowly: "How to sing a song, you are a free bird." ”

Zhou Gongzi hadn't heard this song, but Chen Li'an's words went to her heart, how could she be a canary in a cage.

Ten minutes later, Chen Li'an pushed the car door at the gate of Beijing Film Studio and paused, looked back at Zhou Gongzi and said, "You go back first, you don't have to pick me up at night, I have a gift for you in my box, go back and open it yourself." ”

"Don't dismantle it, I'll wait for you to come back and give it to me personally." Zhou Gongzi tilted his head and said, "It's too boring to open the gift by yourself, you come back early in the evening." ”

Chen Li'an smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go back when I'm done." ”

As for when Chen Li'an will be busy, he doesn't know yet, Gong Li contacted him before he came back, saying that it was rumored outside that Chen Li'an forced Huo Jian to change the script.

Chen Li'an knew that he was confused, he was just putting forward an opinion, why did it become persecution, he hadn't become a high-powered boss yet, why did he become persecution when he put forward an opinion?

In a conference room of Beijing Film Studio, Huo Jianqi looked at the watch on his wrist, he was a little anxious that Chen Li'an had not come back yet, today was the first meeting of the main creative team of the crew, and he was very nervous and nervous.

Nervous because he really changed the script, and everyone had different reactions after reading it, and there is still no conclusion on which version of the script to use.

Huo Jianqi needs to listen to Chen Li'an's opinion, it was Chen Li'an who first proposed to change the script, he must have his own opinions, and he may be able to help him make up his mind.

Just as Huo Jian was smoking a cigarette in annoyance, Chen Li'an pushed open the door and went in.

"I'm sorry guys, I'm late." Chen Li'an took the initiative to apologize after he came in, and then his eyes swept over Ning Jing and Jin Qiaoqiao, before he looked at Huo Jianqi and said, "Director, I'm sorry to delay everyone's time." ”

"It's okay, it's coming, just sit down." Huo Jianqi hurriedly shouted, then handed the new script to Chen Li'an and said, "This is a new script, you can take a look and give some opinions." ”

Chen Li'an took the script, glanced at the only empty seat next to Jin Qiaoqiao, sat down and smiled at her, and then opened the script and read it carefully.

Jin Qiaoqiao didn't give Chen Li'an any response just now, not to mention how unhappy she was with this belated actor.

In the original script, she still had a lot of scenes, and she was still a female number two, but in the new script, her roles have been cut a lot, and the initiator of all this will naturally make people hate.

Ning Jing also turned her head to look at Chen Li'an, and was a little unhappy with him asking the director to change the script, but after seeing the new script today, she felt that the new script was much better than the original, but her role was not as brilliant as before.

Not all the actors in the conference room have opinions on changing the script, at least Wang Qianyuan, who has a big face, thinks that changing the script is simply amazing.

His role in the movie has been increased a lot, and he has changed from male No. 3 to male No. 2.

The most important thing is that his character is also a disabled athlete, and the changes in the script have made the character three-dimensional and plump, no longer a green leaf foil.

Chen Li'an didn't pay attention to other people's reactions, and he didn't know who spread the news, saying that it was better to say that the actor asked the director to change the script, but what would people who didn't know the situation think?

Playing big? Bullying a rookie director? Throw one’s weight around? Add drama to yourself?

Chen Li'an doesn't have to think about it to know what others will say about him, but he doesn't care, the entertainment industry is like that, living purely on gossip.

It's just that it's very interesting to spread the news, not many people know about it, Huo Jianqi, Gong Li, Han Shanping, and Chen Li'an.

Chen Li'an himself definitely didn't say it, Gong Li wouldn't be so cheating Chen Li'an, and Han Shanping wouldn't say it anymore, otherwise people would think that he was supporting Chen Li'an.

So the answer is very simple, what our dear Director Huo said himself, maybe he was really angry in his heart, or maybe he was worried that his reputation would collapse after the script was changed, and he wanted to pull Chen Li'an as a backstop.

No matter what the reason is, Chen Li'an doesn't care very much, he only cares about how the script is changed now, if he doesn't change it and carries a pot, it will be a big loss.

If the script is changed well, it doesn't matter if you take the blame, and it is useless to have a good reputation in the entertainment industry.

Chen Li'an looked at the script attentively, the script has changed a lot, deleted a lot of love details, and increased the male protagonist's persistence in the face of various difficulties.

At the same time, the emotional line between the male protagonist and the female protagonist has been adjusted, and it is no longer the male protagonist who intervenes in other people's feelings, but it is still a love triangle, and two men like the female protagonist at the same time.

One is a disabled athlete, the other is a rich big boss, there is a certain gap between the two, but the inner quality and kindness of the male protagonist deeply attract the female protagonist.

Although the male protagonist is physically disabled, he is more sound than anyone else, kind, persistent, hard-working, optimistic, humorous, etc.

Even in the face of a rich and healthy rival, the male protagonist still did not back down, did not have an inferiority complex, even if the discussions of the people around him made him feel frustrated, but he still pursued bravely.

In contrast, the male protagonist is braver than those who are able-bodied.,You can still become a sport when you're disabled.,You'll still live an active life when you're disabled.,In the face of setbacks and the strange sympathy of the people around you.,The male owner didn't flinch and accept.。

In his heart, he was a complete and sound person, and like all people, the soundness of personality is the real soundness.

In the revised script, the sentence that moved Chen Li'an the most was that I don't need sympathy, sympathy is a strange discrimination, I just hope you can treat me equally.

This sentence is very good, most people will sympathize when they see people with disabilities, but most people's sympathy is with a sense of pity, and psychologically put people with disabilities in a vulnerable position.

Treating them as equals from the bottom of their hearts is what they really want.

After reading the script, Chen Li'an raised his head and looked at Huo Jianqi and said, "Director, after reading it, this change is very good and worth it." ”

Worth it? Huo Jianqi was stunned for a moment, and after pondering for a long time, he glanced at Chen Li'an and said: "That's good, now that the script has been decided, let's discuss it together, and strive to start the film as soon as possible." ”

Director Huo spoke, and several other people naturally would not object, not everyone is Chen Li'an, and he will boldly put forward opinions with the director, and the only one in the entire crew who has the reputation and ability to argue with the director is only Ning Jing.

But Ning Jing doesn't know how to do this kind of thing, the finished script is really good, although her role is a lot less, but it is also a lot more exciting, at least the role is more pleasing.

Huo Jianqi saw that everyone had no opinions, so he picked up the script and said: "Then let's go through the script together, and if you find any problems, you can correct them in time." ”

"No problem, let's go through it again." Chen Li'an opened the script and responded.

Everyone else obediently opened the script and began to read it.

In the process of reading, Chen Li'an also pointed out a few unreasonable lines, the problem with the lines is actually not big, and it has no impact on the plot, but Chen Li'an still pointed it out, in the eyes of everyone, it seems like picking a bone in an egg and deliberately making trouble for the director.

The crowd watching was envious, the artist really had a bad brain! I don't know if I have the confidence, or if I simply don't understand the world.

Ning Jing also looked sideways at Chen Li'an, who was talking to Huo Jianqi, and her impression of him was much better, a more honest person is much better than a person who cowers and doesn't dare to say anything.

"Director, this sentence has been changed, and I will have no problem." Chen Li'an looked at Huo Jianqi, his eyes flashed slightly, and finally closed the script and stopped talking.

Although Huo Jianqi is not very authentic in doing this, it is enough to be a little embarrassed, everyone knows what they understand each other, and they can't go overboard.

Chen Li'an was unhappy with Huo Jianqi and let himself take the blame, and deliberately provoked the thorn to show his attitude. If you do it too much, everyone's face is really not good-looking.

Director Huo is really interesting, obviously he wanted to change the script, and deliberately revealed the news because of Chen Li'an, if it wasn't for watching the script change, he would be embarrassed! Let him know that Teacher Chen is not so easy to bully.

After the reading ended, Chen Li'an refused Huo Jianqi's invitation to have dinner together, saying that he had just gotten off the plane today and wanted to go back and rest early.

Huo Jianqi only thought that Chen Li'an was still angry in his heart, and after two words of persuasion, he didn't say anything anymore.

Chen Li'an lit a cigarette at the gate of Beijing Film Studio, and was a little worried about whether he could get a taxi home so late, if he couldn't get a taxi within five minutes, he would call Zhou Gongzi and ask her to pick him up.

In a car not far away, Jiang Wen glanced at Chen Li'an, who was smoking at the door, turned his head and asked, "This kid is the actor of your movie, let Lao Huo change the script?" ”

Ning Jing snorted, raised her eyebrows and asked, "What?" You're going to stand up for your friends? ”

"I have nothing to do, I read the script, and there is nothing wrong with changing it." Jiang Wen started the car, and then said to Ning Jing: "But I really want to know him, it's really rare for an artist to come to act." ”

Jiang Wen's car quickly stopped in front of Chen Li'an, rolled down the window and shouted to him, "Where are you going?" Take my car and give you a ride. ”

Chen Li'an turned his head to look at the rough Jiang Wen and Ning Jing who was sitting in the passenger seat, and was a little puzzled, but he still smiled and said, "Then thank you." ”

After saying that, Chen Li'an opened the door of the back seat and got into the car, it is better to have a car and not sit a bastard, it is better than letting Zhou Gongzi run again.

(The normal update time starts today, and there are still nine thousand words left in the evening.) ）
