Zhang Weiping rolled his eyes when he heard this, and thought of Chen Jingfei's words yesterday.

Then he asked, "Are you still thinking about his water sleeve blow?" It's a pity that he's a man. ”

"yes, that's a pity." Zhang Yi let out a long sigh.

Now there are three people in his heart who are suitable for the role of the blind girl.

Chen Shuo, Zhang Ziyi and Liu Yifei.

But all three have flaws.

Whether it is acting skills or dance skills, the most suitable one is Chen Shuo.

But his gender is a fatal flaw, an unsolvable knot.

In terms of acting skills, Zhang Ziyi is the most suitable, and in this aspect alone, she is more suitable than Chen Shuo.

However, it is a pity that she is not talented enough to do the drumming movements of the water sleeves.

The most deficient is Liu Yifei, her acting skills are not good, and the water sleeve dance is not as good as Chen Shuo.

But she has the biggest advantage, she can do the water sleeve drumming herself, and at the same time has the backing of Chen Shuo.

It can ensure the success of the water sleeve drumming scene to the greatest extent.

And acting skills can be adjusted.

As long as she is not a wood, I have the confidence to train her into an actor suitable for the role of a blind girl.

Zhang Weiping glanced at him and sighed as if unintentionally: "Now, Chen Shuo and Liu Yifei are tied together.

If you choose one, then using the other at the same time is the most preferable.

If you use only one, it is better to use neither. ”

"yes." Zhang Yimou thought about it, and it was really like this.

Zhang Weiping suddenly said with a serious face: "Yimou, if you really plan to use these two newcomers, I will also support you unconditionally."

As you said, "Hero" is no longer replicable, so let's make a good movie in your mind! ”

Zhang Yimou was moved in his heart when he heard this, turned his head and patted him on the shoulder, everything was silent.

"Hahaha~" Zhang Weiping patted him on the back and said with a smile: "Do you want to know why I changed my mind?" ”

Without waiting for Zhang Yimou to answer, he continued: "After the banquet was dispersed yesterday, Chen Jingfei took me to consume together.

He said that if I can help his daughter star in your play, he can help me develop my real estate company, and he can also invest 20 million in the new play.

He's a businessman, and like me, we value investment and income.

We all believe that if you have invested energy and money in one thing, you have to recoup more benefits.

He spent so much effort to let his daughter go one step further through your platform.

And I want you to make commercial films, and I want you to use celebrities to pull the box office.

But I also know that you are different from us, what you think about is art, ideals, and expressions of inner emotion.

You won't care how much you put in, and you won't care how much you get back in return.

But it's not contradictory, as I said before, you are in charge of your art, and I am in charge of making your art.

If you use Liu Yifei and Chen Shuo, I will find Chen Jingfei to help us share the risk of employing newcomers.

If you use Zhang Ziyi, I can also find investors who are willing to invest in her.

In a word, you do what you think, and I'll take care of the rest. ”

"Good!" Zhang Yimou held Zhang Weiping's hand tightly and shook it vigorously.

Turning his head to the driver, he said, "Xiao Wu, drive faster, hurry up and finish reading the dubbing, I'll go to Wang Bin." ”

"Okay." The driver answered and stepped on the accelerator to speed up.

As soon as Zhang Weiping heard this, he knew that he had some idea and wanted to change the script.

He looked at him again, and said no more.

Although the conditions given by Chen Jingfei are very moving, he knows that his biggest treasure now is Zhang Yimou.

It is good that Chen Jingfei's promise can be obtained, but if he can't get it, there are always people who are willing to give the same or even better conditions.

As long as Zhang Yimou is in hand, he is not afraid of not having another "Chen Jingfei".

Zhang Yimou quickly finished watching the dubbing, and directly called Li Feng to Wang Bin's house in the afternoon.

These two are old buddies who have been with him for many years, and they are responsible for writing scripts with him.

The three of them spend more time together than they spend with their families.

Inside, the three of them each found their accustomed seat and sat down.

Zhang Yimou spoke first: "Re-establish the character."

Now, our version of the script has four key characters.

Childe with the wind, blind girl Willow Leaf, father and eldest sister.

Now, my father has invited Andy Lau, and my eldest sister has invited Mei Yanfang.

The blind girl Liu Ye originally intended to find Zhang Ziyi.

But since last year, I met two newcomers, and you have all seen them, that is, the two new students of Beiying who performed "Roselle Lingbo Dance".

I met them again yesterday and it inspired me deeply.

I was wondering if I would invite the two of them to play Suifeng and Liu Ye, but I was unwilling to give up Ziyi.

Think about it, how can this be changed? ”

The new drama is still titled "Wind, Leaf, Sword, Knife".

The theme idea is to tell a martial arts love story.

There are four crucial characters involved, featuring the wind, the leaves, the sword, and the knife.

The whole story revolves around the conspiracy of his father to send Liu Ye to assassinate the king and want Li Dai Taozhuang to become the new king.

Willow Leaf's assassination failed, and the king was angry and wanted to find out who was behind it.

So he sent his father and Suifeng to investigate the matter together.

Sui Feng is the son of the palace, and at the behest of his father, he pretended to save Liu Ye, and wanted to find the whereabouts of the Flying Knife Gate through her.

On the way, he met his father, who was both the chief guest secretary of the king and the biological father of Liu Ye.

Then there is the eldest sister, the head of the Flying Knife Gate, and also the adoptive mother who raised Liu Ye.

A woman who is very ambitious and has a lot of pattern.

She has a line: "For thousands of years, the rivers and lakes have been the rivers and lakes of men, but today I want to say that the rivers and lakes are our rivers and lakes!" ”

This line was personally thought up by Zhang Yimou, so the eldest sister rose to become the first protagonist of the film, and she is the final master of the overall situation.

However, since this script was written, it has been criticized by many people in the industry as incomplete, especially the characters.

was even planed by Zou Jingzhi.

Now Zhang Yimou doesn't think about how to plump up the original characters, and even thinks about adding another character.

Wang Bin and Li Feng glanced at each other and said, "You mean, you want to use those two newcomers to play Suifeng and Liu Ye."

Now we're going to design another character for Ziyi. ”

"It's not so restrictive." Zhang Yimou thought for a while and said: "Two newcomers, one is called Chen Shuo and the other is Liu Yifei.

Among them, Liu Yifei will perform the scene of water sleeve drumming, which can give her the identity of a blind girl, but it is separated from Liu Ye's role. ”

Li Feng said: "Originally, this story was about the father, Suifeng, and Liu Ye, the love and hatred of two men and a woman.

The role of the father is the 'conspiracy' that runs through the story.

Sui Feng and Willow Leaf are responsible for the twists and turns of the 'love'.

Although the role of the eldest sister is the first protagonist, her role will not be too heavy.

It mainly plays the role of sublimating the theme of 'rivers and lakes'.

Now that there is an extra female character, how do you insert it? ”

Wang Bin said: "It's simple to insert a character, but now we have to think first, what do we want to express by inserting this character?"

What role does she need to play? ”

"I think so." Zhang Yimou said: "Let's not consider the meaning of her existence first.

Jing Zhi is right, 'Every character is too careful, but it's nothing!' ’

Now we just want to get rid of the problem of these characters being 'troublesome' and let them really 'have something'.

Hold on to the theme of intrigue and love, and 'find trouble' for these characters.

And then put it all together to form a complete story. ”
