433 The Origin of Making Bullets Fly
Jay dragged into the office, sighed about the new building, and asked, "The 599 in the parking lot is yours, right?" ”
"You've found out."
"Who's going to be there but your car?"
Jaylen asked, "Why don't you open a Lamborghini, I think it's more suitable than a Ferrari." ”
"It's all cars, it's good to be able to drive."
"That's different, I'll tell you, Lamborghini has more control"
Jaylen then talked about cars.
Lu Ping'an showed some understanding of cars before filming "Initial D", but he didn't say much.
In addition, he usually drives an A6 and does not have a sports car under his name, so Jay rarely mentions the topic of cars later.
Now that Lu Ping'an has changed cars, Jay, like Liu Qianqian, seems to have finally found a new common topic with Lu Ping'an.
And then the conversation went on and on.
Then he chatted about the sports car for half an hour.
This made Lu Ping'an start to reflect.
He felt that he should be quite boring in the eyes of outsiders.
Also, I don't usually show a hobby other than movies, except for the occasional painting, there really seems to be nothing else.
Just like Yan Danchen occasionally complains, saying that Lu Ping'an's brain is made of film, and even when he does it at night, he can be full of cinematic sense.
So Liu Qianqian's car was given away like this, making her image more vivid and more accessible?
In that case, let's show more of your personal hobbies.
Let's talk about music.
Never mind.
It's sick to talk about music with this guy.
Lu Ping'an cleared his throat, and then said to Jayron: "Actually, I also like airplanes, and I'm about to buy two." ”
Jay: "Let's talk about movies. ”
Lu Ping'an: "."
I can't talk anymore this day.
Forget it, let's talk about the movie.
Then the two began to talk about the movie.
Jay just finished his concert in Beijing yesterday, and today he came over to attend Lu Ping'an's birthday party, talk about "Wonderful Night 2", and talk about his new movie "The Secret That Can't Be Said".
"The Secret That Can't Be Said" has been filmed, the rough cut of the film has been completed, and it has been sent to Lu Ping'an a few days ago.
Lu Ping'an has also seen it, he said: "The plot is no problem, the rest of the problems are not big, don't worry." ”
"At the box office, what do you think will happen?" Jay Lun's eyes were looking forward to it.
"It's hard to say, but in my opinion, the biggest problem with this film is actually your problem."
"Me?"
"That's right, if you are a singer and a cross-border director, there will always be some pimples in everyone's hearts."
"No, it won't."
"There's no best, but you have to be prepared."
"I'll put your name on it."
"Isn't that my work?"
"What then?"
"The movie is very good, the box office sometimes doesn't mean anything, I suggest you still go on it yourself, but the expectations should be lowered, don't rush for hundreds of millions as soon as you come up."
"Hundreds of millions?!"
"What did you expect?"
"I'm very satisfied with 50 million on the mainland."
I thought it was over, don't worry, I'll help you do the distribution, if you can't do it for 50 million, I don't have to mess around."
"That's good, that's good."
Jay was completely satisfied.
On Lu Ping'an's birthday that night, a group of friends gathered in the courtyard to have a barbecue party.
During the period, we continued to talk about movies.
It's just that compared with "Wonderful Night 2", everyone is actually more curious about Lu Ping'an and Jiang Wen's new movie.
Jiang Wen said in the media that Lu Ping'an wanted to bury him alive, and the first reaction of people who knew Lu Ping'an was that there was a new movie, not a joke.
As for Jiang Wen's loss of tens of millions to Lu Ping'an?
Everyone knows that one or two million is not a matter of their relationship at all.
Lu Ping'an did not hide this.
"There are indeed new movies."
These words directly made Chen Kun and other actors present interested.
"I've been pretty empty lately!"
"And me!"
Zhou Gongzi also raised his hand: "I'm also empty." ”
Lu Ping'an smiled: "You can't do it, this is Jiang Wen's one-man show." ”
"A one-man show?"
Zhang Songwen was the first to react, and then his eyes were full of envy, "Shouldn't this be a movie with only one person?" ”
Lu Ping'an nodded: "Smart, it's a one-person movie, but there will be a few people who participate in it with their voices, but there are not many lines." ”
Everyone was amazed and signed up, and then said that they must observe.
So the next afternoon, when Jiang Wen came to the Xingchen Studio, he saw that Zhang Songwen and more than a dozen other people were already here.
"It's all my jokes, aren't they?"
Jiang Wen laughed.
The crowd laughed too.
It's just that Jiang Wen pulled over the road and chatted peacefully.
Lu Ping'an thought he was going to talk about the script, but Jiang Wen opened his mouth and said, "I can't act in this film." ”
Lu Ping'an's eyes widened, and his face was full of "??? ”。
Jiang Wen was a little embarrassed and said: "I wanted to talk to you yesterday, but I drank high with my father-in-law last night, and my mobile phone ran out of battery during the day today."
Lu Ping'an interrupted: "Old Jiang, if there is any difficulty, you can tell me directly." ”
"Then I'll say it." Jiang Wen lit a cigarette, frowned and sorted out his thoughts, and then said seriously: "You still recognize me as a friend, right?" ”
Lu Ping'an nodded.
Jiang Wen continued to ask: "I'm not your teacher now, but how can we say that there are also some teacher-student relationships, right?" ”
"Yes."
"Do you think I can really make you suffer?"
"Isn't this all over?"
"You passed, I didn't, you want me to pass, I know, but I don't want to just pass."
Jiang Wen spit out a big puff of cigarette and continued, "I've been thinking about the box office for the past few days, you don't blame me, I'm looking at it, but this is a loss of 18.6 million after all, it's a trivial matter to you, you can not care, and you can use "Buried Alive" to comfort me, but I can't, I can't take it with peace of mind, oh, I've lost a lot of money for you, and it's not good for you to play a movie that is already niche and can't make too much money, and this matter is over?" I'm still taking benefits when it's over, and you still can't get anything, so what has become of me, there is no such reason in the world! Even if there is, I don't recognize it! ”
"What's this? You've lost money, so it's normal to give me a movie for free. ”
"Abnormal! It's not normal! ”
Jiang Wen snuffed out the cigarette butt and said seriously, "You really don't know that you can't make a lot of money from filming "Buried Alive", and it doesn't mean anything to you now?" ”
Lu Ping'an stopped talking.
Really to say meaning.
Actually, it doesn't make much sense.
The reason why Lu Ping'an took out "Buried Alive" is indeed like Jiang Wen said, the focus is to use the word "buried alive" to ridicule and comfort, and pass the time of 9 to 5 by the way, but the movie itself is not very important.
In terms of the movie itself, this film is at most a reflection of "one person's movie", which makes the outside world think that Director Lu Da is a cow pen, but this is not a subversive "cow pen", and it will not produce much benefit in the future.
For example, the profits that movies can generate, the prestige of Lu Ping'an and Jiang Wen's professional ability, the inspiration for film academics, and the significance to society are all relatively chicken.
So Jiang Wen continued: "So I can't act, this is consuming you in vain." ”
As he spoke, Jiang Wen took out a book and handed it to Lu Ping'an, and then said, "I will use my way to earn back the face we lost!" ”
Lu Ping'an took the book, the title of the book is "Ten Tales of the Night", the author Ma Zhitu.
This book is the original book of "Let the Bullets Fly".
So the "origin" of this great work is me?
Jiang Wen went on to talk about the adaptation of the book.
Of course, there are many differences between the current thinking and the later films.
But it doesn't matter.
Because Lu Ping'an knew that Jiang Wen would definitely do it in the end.
After a moment of silence, Lu Ping'an smiled and asked Jiang Wen, "So, do you want to earn money while standing?" ”
"That's right! That's a good thing to say! ”
Jiang Wen laughed, and then said firmly in a tone like Zhang Mazi, "This time I just want to stand and earn the money!" ”
"Okay!"
Lu Ping'an did not refuse.
It's not because "Let the Bullets Fly" makes a lot of money.
It's because of Jiang Wen's backbone and his cherishing of friendship.
So he accepted directly: "Then I'll change people now." ”
"I have a suggestion."
"You say."
"Let Arwen get on."
"Yes, I've been playing with me for seven years, and I haven't reaped any big benefits, so I have to rush for the award."
"I have one more suggestion."
"You say."
"I'll guide you."
".rub!"
Lu Ping'an laughed and scolded, "You still haven't changed!" ”
"It's not me if it changes!"
Jiang Wen got up with a smile, this time he looked at the whole person, and finally became completely relaxed.
