Early in the morning of April 12th, in Xingchen Film and Television Company.

At present, Xingchen Film and Television has 32 employees, and the ten new people who have only been working for a week are nervous.

After they entered the company, so far they have not seen any of the other stars except for the boss Director Lu.

As a result, yesterday, the general manager Wu Guohua suddenly announced that Guorong would come to the company tomorrow, and Jiang Wen would come with him, so that everyone would clean up immediately and get ready to meet it!

At this time, the new employees are not calm.

Jiang Wen put it aside first, the other one is my brother!

Ning Caichen of "A Chinese Ghost Story".

Cheng Dieyi of "Farewell My Concubine".

There are also "The Wind Continues to Blow", "Silence is Golden", "The Love of the Year"...

Yesterday, the whole company played all the songs of my brother.

The old employees are much calmer.

Although they haven't been in the company for a long time, there are not many celebrities who have come to the company.

But they followed Lu Ping'an to the crew and to Berlin, but they have seen a lot of the world.

But under the calm appearance, everyone is actually just as excited.

That's national glory after all!

Now in 2002, Hong Kong and Taiwan stars will be promoted to at least one coffee position in the mainland.

Among Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, although Guorong does not appear as often as the Four Heavenly Kings, for people in the entertainment industry, Guorong's status is also recognized as higher than that of the Four Heavenly Kings.

Guorong came over today, if the boss can really get him, it will be of great significance to the company, so everyone dare not slack off.

Soon, as the elevator outside the company opened, the first to come out were a few assistant-like people and bodyguard-like men.

Then Lu Ping'an, Guorong, and Jiang Wen walked out with a smile.

Guorong is of medium height, and he is a little petite in front of Lu Ping'an and Jiang Wen, who are more than 1.8 meters tall.

But the temperament is indescribably special.

Lu Ping'an doesn't have any aura, mainly because his face is tender, and he is a student.

And Guorong looks like a student, it seems to be no different from Lu Ping'an, but the actual aura is restrained and smart, and his eyes are full of light, very handsome!

Especially in front of Jiang Wen, who exudes domineering and mixed with gangsterism, Jiang Wen is like an ancient general, and Guorong is like a prince who paid a private visit to an ancient microservice, and he just came out for an outing today.

Superstar, this is!

The employees of Xingchen Company sighed in their hearts, and then began the welcome ceremony.

"Hello brother!"

More than 20 employees stood in a row to say hello.

"Hello."

Guorong's affinity exploded, and he smiled and waved to everyone, "Don't be so grand, I'm just here to see, you're busy with you." ”

Mandarin is very standard, the voice is very good, and when you look closely, it doesn't look like a person in his forties at all.

After entering the company, Lu Ping'an took Guorong for a tour.

There's still nothing to see, but Guorong is very interested.

"This is the Palme d'Or of Black Hole, right...

"This Palme d'Or is so mini, if I were to change it, I would prefer this...

"This is the manuscript of "Hired Life", can you give me a copy?"

Guorong's interest is very high, or his interest in Lu Ping'an is not small.

What impressed Lu Ping'an the most was not other movies, but "Hiring Life".

Before this, Lu Ping'an contacted Jiang Wen and asked him if he could contact Guorong and wanted him to be the protagonist.

After Jiang Wen contacted him, Guorong and Zhou Xingxing directly said that they knew that Lu Ping An was safe, and now they were also in the mainland, so they came directly.

On the way to the airport to pick up the plane, Lu Ping'an already knew the relationship between Jiang Wen and Guorong.

The two have known each other for a long time, and not long ago there was a long talk, and the two showed off two bottles of red wine.

The main topic is that Guorong wants to be a director, he said that he has acted in so many movies, and he has long wanted to direct one himself, and in 2000, he directed a "Smoke and Smoke", but he was very dissatisfied and felt that he was too bad, so now he is preparing for the second part, and he found Jiang Wen.

Now that the project has entered the preparation stage, I don't know when it will be filmed, but it will probably be next year.

Lu Ping'an, who happened later, also knew that Guorong's movie would let Jiang Wen and Huang Xiaoming play father and son.

But it didn't work out, and everything stopped on April Fool's Day next year.

After receiving Guorong at the airport, Guorong also recognized Lu Ping'an.

It's just that the first thing he said was: "Your "Hired Life" should be added with an ironing board." ”

And the reason is now known.

Guorong looked at the manuscript and said with a smile: "When I was a child, I did a stupid thing, I used myself as an ironing board, and let people iron clothes on my back, it was so dangerous, I really almost got burned, hahaha... ”

Saying, he pointed to the manuscript of "Hiring Life" and said regretfully: "I actually had such an idea, at that time I was thinking, will someone specialize in making ironing boards in the future, someone will specialize in making chairs, unfortunately, I can also draw, but I will be a director, hey, if I had learned directing earlier, maybe I could have made such a work, hahaha, just kidding, even if I am a director, I can't shoot it, don't take it seriously... ”

Guorong said a lot, almost all of the way he was talking, and he always laughed when he said it, very friendly and childish, just the kind of look that looked like there was no pressure in his heart at all, and he couldn't tell that he would get sick in the future.

After a brief visit, I entered the office of Lu Ping'an, and after inviting tea, I began to talk about the topic.

Guorong first said to Lu Ping'an: "Director Jiang said that before cooperating with him, you can try to cooperate with you, and he said that Ling's requirements for the film are the same as his, and he is a perfectionist." ”

After Lu Ping'an heard this, he was even more grateful to Jiang Wen, this was really helping him.

"You can't be a perfectionist."

Lu Ping'an said modestly, "I can only say that I am trying my best to make the film the same as I imagined, and not let them fall below the bottom line of the minimum standard, otherwise I will not be able to sleep." ”

This is also honest, after all, 90% is indeed the bottom line.

"That's another word for perfectionism, and I've learned it!"

Guorong said and smiled with the help on the side, "Don't say I'm a perfectionist in the future, say that my bottom line is relatively high, understand?" ”

Everyone laughed.

Then Guorong stretched out his hand: "Show me the script, let me see your brain." ”

The word brain hole belongs to Lu Ping An in the current world.

This is also one of the reasons why Guorong is attracted to come.

"You'll be satisfied."

Lu Ping'an smiled and handed out two scripts, one for Jiang Wen and Guorong, both with storyboards.

For Guorong will not take on the role.

Lu Ping'an and Jiang Wen asked.

After listening to the general content of the script, Jiang Wen said that it was very likely.

The current preference for Guorong films has changed.

More experimental films.

This is the case with "Different Dimension", which was just released in Xiangjiang on March 28 this year, and the previous "Gun King", whose role in it is more inclined to have psychological problems.

It's not that I really like characters with psychological problems, but I prefer movies with different styles and different expressions.

"Source Code" is clearly not an experimental film, but a standard Hollywood-style commercial film.

But if you really want to talk about the plot, it is indeed more attractive than ordinary films.

It is the "brain hole" mentioned by Guorong.

Jiang Wen said that Guorong is not a non-experimental film, but will be considered comprehensively.

For example, promoting juniors, trying fresh and interesting scripts, and so on.

Freedom and spontaneity.

At this point, Lu Ping'an's movie is very much in line with it.

is young, is the most potential star of the young generation in the mainland, and is Jiang Wen's "friend".

The films made are unusual, find a different path, and are very avant-garde.

At the same time, the quality is guaranteed and the reputation is very good.

So on the whole, the probability of Lu Ping'an winning Guorong is very high, at least Jiang Wen thinks so, but it does not represent Guorong's own meaning.

Lu Ping'an still has that mentality.

It's best if it works, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't, no matter what the result is, it won't affect the final shooting plan and the quality of the film.

Half an hour later.

Guorong put down the script and asked Lu Ping'an: "This idea is great, I like it very much, Ping'an, did the male protagonist really not die in the end?" How can a female officer receive a text message? ”

This is the biggest doubt in the hearts of many people who have watched "Source Code", and it is also the charm of this film.

The theory of parallel worlds is not popular in the current world, even if there are films such as "Comet" appearing and mentioning, but without the background of the Internet information explosion, ordinary people will still feel amazing when they hear it.

So Lu Ping'an explained to him in detail, and revealed more thoughtful and terrifying hints in this film as the author.

After chatting for a while, Guorong fully understood some of the avant-garde ideas in the movie.

Guorong shook his head with a smile, pointed at Lu Ping'an and said to Jiang Wen: "I know why everyone says that his movies are brain-burning." ”

The crowd laughed again.

Lu Ping'an took the opportunity to ask: "Then brother, do you want to create this interesting movie world together?" ”

"I don't have a lot of schedules, but... Guorong put down the script, spread his hands, and said handsomely in English: "Of course!" ”
