Chapter 114: A Familiar Breath
At eighteen o'clock Berlin time, Melulan Dora called, concerned about Su Changqing's creative situation.
After all, she had studied film-related majors in college, and she reacted a little: "Since you have the ability to provide scripts for Japanese people, it stands to reason that you should have sufficient reserves, how can you deny that you need to conceive a new one?"
She didn't mean to question, she was really puzzled, her strength did not allow her to doubt her charm, and she didn't believe that Su Changqing would rather sleep in the hotel than play with her.
Su Changqing tried to pretend to be awake, but he didn't succeed, and he just woke up when he heard the sound.
"I don't have the habit of buying scripts, I've always created my own scripts, and all I have in store is stories. ”
As the day passed, Melulan Dorath felt a little apologetic: "I shouldn't interfere with your creation, and when I come back, I think seriously, maybe my thinking is too narrow, just like the Chinese idiom says, bystander Qing, your observation of Germany and Western society may be right." ”
Not only is it possible to be right, Su Changqing has read more than thirty years of history, and he is more qualified to draw certain conclusions than anyone else in the contemporary era.
Some things are easy to turn bad once they are mixed with personal feelings, although Melulan Dora's good impression of Su Changqing has not increased day by day, but it can be regarded as keeping pace with the times, which is throwing national pride out of the clouds.
In addition, although she is German, she is an American after all, and her desire to subconsciously occupy the moral high ground is very strong, and she is unwilling to lose to anyone.
What's more, Hollywood has slandered and spoiled Germany in recent years, there are countless dramas of all kinds, and the quality of some dramas is not much better than the later anti-Japanese dramas, in comparison, Su Changqing seems to be more respectful, what is there to worry about.
In addition, it must be admitted that people or nations who are not good at self-reflection and correction are unlikely to become the top, even if they are in the limelight for a while, they will still be followers in the end.
Japan and Germany are the best examples, Germany is soft when it should be soft, kneeling at a critical moment, and then the world praises its courage to apologize, so that there are far fewer restrictions on development, and finally become the real hegemon of Europe.
Regardless of whether it was a deception or not, what was not realized on the battlefield was later realized by development, and Japan fell short.
Later, Melulan Dora said to Su Changqing: "In my observation, China and Germany are the two most similar peoples, both are good at thinking and even keen on self-criticism, have a strong ability to correct mistakes, and will be anxious about not being world-class, which is rare in other places." ”
In fact, people who are really familiar with the United States know that Germans are the largest ethnic group in this country, surpassing the Anglo-Saxons very early, German was almost the official language, and the Germans have a very large voice in politics and economy, and even the commanders of the Allied East and West theaters in World War II are all Germans, and it was the Germans who defeated the Germans to a large extent.
Maybe this is also the reason why the German blow on the Internet later lasted to the end, and there is really no one to brag about in the future.
Su Changqing gave up the face of "Reader" to Melulan Dora: "Your suggestion is still right, I am an outsider, why should I mix these things, this movie will not be understood, if Westerners make a film similar to deconstructing the spirit of the Chinese, I will also be uncomfortable." ”
Melulan Dora was obviously very impressed by Su Changqing's generosity, but still asked: "Is there a big loss in giving up the script? What stage of the project is it now?"
"I don't care how much I lose, I don't care about how much I lose, and I don't hesitate to pay a big price if I can get back on the right path. ”
"It seems that I really misunderstood you before, and for a long time I thought you were a very arrogant person. ”
"We all make progress together. ”
"Are you sleeping?"
"I'm tired of writing and squinting for a while, and there is still a way to go to scripting a story. ”
"Then come out and tell me your story, by the way?"
There is no reason to refuse again, just after sleeping and energetic, Su Changqing agreed.
This time, the two went to a more high-end restaurant, and the dishes were also improved so-called new German cuisine.
Melulan Dora wore a black low-cut evening gown with a fur coat over it, typical of European high society.
I am afraid that it will not be possible to wear it like this again in a few years, and at that time fur products will be completely boycotted in Europe and the United States.
It may be that he is more fully rested, and Su Changqing thinks that Melulan Dora is more beautiful than yesterday.
Oriental men's mouths are not sweet enough, and they are embarrassed to praise women in person, Su Changqing worked hard to overcome this psychological barrier: "You are exceptionally beautiful tonight." ”
Silly Bai Tian specially ate this set, and his whole face lit up: "Thank you." ”
The young waiter at the reception was obviously rarely seen an Oriental playing with a blonde beauty, and he didn't think so.
Melulan Dora said the restaurant had to be booked a few days in advance, and she used some connections to cut the queue.
It seems that the matter of going through the back door has to be seen from both sides, and it is because there are rules that you need to find a way to break it.
As for the dishes of this famous restaurant, Su Changqing probably guessed it when he entered the restaurant, and there was a northeast flavor wafting in his breath.
Sure enough, one by one, in addition to the original pea soup, there were also German sauerkraut, German blood sausage, and German flatbread.
There is a bit of meat in the German flatbread, which is a big difference, but one of the stewed pork ribs with sauerkraut is just a little less vermicelli, otherwise it is exactly the same as Northeast cuisine.
Melulan Dora smiled and asked, "Is there a familiar smell?"
It seems that she has eaten Northeast cuisine.
"The blood sausage was breaded with crumbs, and the sauerkraut was not put in vermicelli and fennel. ”
"We also have pure blood sausages called black pudding. ”
"I thought your faith didn't allow you to eat these. ”
"Jews don't eat. ”
"No wonder, it seems that picky eating is not a good thing. ”
These dishes can be rated as Michelin, and I can only blame that my family's emerald flowers are not as foreign as Melulan Dora.
Eating sauerkraut blood sausage cakes has to be accompanied by a kind of cider, which is very good to eat, and the two chatted about Su Changqing's new plot while drinking a little wine.
Su Changqing initially considered a remake of "Infernal Affairs", which was a Hong Kong movie in 02, but Hollywood remade it into "The Departed" in 06, starring Xiao Li Zi of "Titanic", and won the Oscar for Best Picture.
Infernal is a dark area between hell and the world, this story is about the underworld and the police have been cultivating undercover agents to be inserted in each other since childhood, and after many years, the two undercover agents have grown into the backbone of each other, and the police and the underworld have noticed and launched a clean-up operation, so a series of stories of wits and courage have occurred.
Whether it is the Hong Kong version or the Hollywood version, the movie is very exciting, and Melulan Dora also praised: "This story is fantastic, but I have a question, there is no underworld in China, and it is difficult for such a thing to happen in your organizational form, right?"
Su Changqing is indeed hesitating: "I plan to put my background in Hong Kong or Taiwan, which is also our place, and it cannot be said that there is no underworld in China." ”
It is okay to use the Kanno team to shoot in Taiwan, or the four-dimensional team to shoot in Hong Kong, but it is undoubtedly necessary to use local actors, otherwise it will lack market persuasion.
So Su Changqing hesitated to remake another Oscar-winning film, and it was more in line with his usual dark taste.
