Chapter 638: 636 Exposures!

Chapter 638 636. Exposure!

"Interview with Yang Lan" is the only interview program in China, no matter from any aspect.

Just watch the celebrities who have been on her show.

There are countless domestic and foreign celebrities.

She is not someone who has never seen the market.

But at this moment, she was on the wooden floor of the big-leaf red sandalwood, looking at the scratches under the grand master's chair, she couldn't help but feel her heart twitch.

This place looks like a temporary arrangement.

Moreover, Xu Xin directly gave opinions on the erection of the aircraft seats.

As a director, he is naturally a professional. But it was also like this, when she realized that these scratches were actually caused by him arranging interview locations for the program group, she felt so turbulent in her heart.

Not to mention Xu Xin's ability, but in terms of financial resources, she didn't have a very intuitive concept before.

Coal boss or something, she has seen a lot.

Wearing gold and silver, getting in a Rolls Royce, getting off in the presidential suite, accompanied by a starlet and so on.

But sitting in this living room full of "scent of books" at this moment, thinking about the achievements of this young man in his early twenties, this is complicated for Yang Lan.

The feeling of "other people's child" was overwhelming in her heart, and she became more and more speechless after tossing.

At the same time, she also had a premonition.

This interview…will be interesting.

It took less than half an hour to set up, and all the lights and camera positions were set up.

Xu Xin also put on his microphone.

During the period, he and Yang Lang didn't have much communication, because the other party was preparing the interview draft.

Yang Lan did the interview without script, so when the interview was about to start, she checked the contents of her notebook for the last time, and invited Xu Xin to sit down as the "master".

After the two sat down, one on the left and the other on the right, the lights and the camera were adjusted again. Finally, with the director's voice of "The show starts", Yang Lan turned around and looked at the camera.

"Hello everyone."

She smiles and looks at the camera:

"When it comes to young directors in the new era, there is a name that everyone can't avoid. He, with a youthful spirit, started with a few pages of sketches and joined the grand event of the country.

During his tenure, starting from a props designer, he walked step by step to the position known as the "Ouchi Manager", showing his extraordinary ability to coordinate work.

As the designer of the torch, 1.3 billion people burst out with the glory of the country.

At the same time, he also took the time to direct a debut film of his own life. When the debut film came out, it broke many records of domestic directors with a global box office of 462 million. With his debut work, he won the Cannes "Golden Camera" award.

Followed by another movie with the theme of paying tribute to the fighters on the great hidden front -- "The Wind", which presented a wonderful and suspenseful drama for the audience. At the same time as the box office jumped to the second place in the domestic film that year, it also won the youngest double-gold actress in China.

And in the third film, he broke the record of being the youngest director in the world to win the best director in Venice.

Since his debut, Lien Chan and Lian Jie's broken records seem to have become synonymous with him. Now, his third film, "Love in the Hawthorn Tree", which received multiple nominations at the "Venice Film Festival" and finally won two awards for Best Newcomer and Best Director, will be on the screen on the 22nd of this month. This time, what kind of surprise will he bring us... Let us welcome the young director, Xu Xin. "

After a coherent introduction, Yang Lan raised his hand, and the image of Xu Xin appeared in front of the camera.

"Thanks."

Xu Xin thanked politely.

Sincerely.

"Interview with Yang Lan" has a high ratings and has always been one of the most professional talk shows in China. And her last words were the catchphrase used by the program group to promote "The Hawthorn Tree".

He was very grateful.

After thanking you, Yang Lan laughed and said:

"What I'm actually curious about is that the film "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" is a... what happened in the age when you were not born, experienced or felt it personally. What kind of karma and fate made you How did you form such a relationship with this movie?"

"It's director Zhang Yimou."

Xu Xin said with a smile.

"He recommended it to you?"

"right."

"Then can you tell us about the situation at that time?"

"Well…"

Xu Xin thought for a while and said:

"At that time... it was in Yangling, Shaanxi Province. My wife, Yang Mi, was pregnant at the time and said she wanted to eat dipped noodles. We went to Yangling to eat at a very famous noodle restaurant. I remember it was just After sitting down and ordering, I received a call from Director Zhang."

While speaking, he gestured a "6" gesture and stuck it to his ears and mouth:

"Hey, where are you? I said: I'm eating noodles with Yang Mi. Director Zhang probably meant: Oh, you eat noodles, I have something to do with you... If you have something to do, you have to let me eat noodles. Say, otherwise it would be a waste..."

"Haha... So, the communication between you and Director Zhang is... not very formal?"

Looking at his vivid Shaanxi dialect, Yang Lan laughed out loud.

Xu Xin also nodded with a smile:

"That's right, the two of us communicate... In my heart, he is my teacher, master, the person who led me in. But regardless of the gap between our identities and our youth, our identities are more like... family members. So talking is not That kind of politeness seems very divided. It's like talking like the elders and juniors in the family."

"Then he recommended this novel to you... It's a novel, right? The script probably hasn't come out yet."

"Yes, tell me to go back and watch."

"After watching...how do you feel?"

"It feels like... the first reaction, it's ridiculous."

Xu Xin was a little speechless:

"I looked at the era, the 1970s... I was not born at that time. I thought to myself, why did your old man let me shoot this? I asked him, and I said, if you think I did something wrong, you can just say it. Punish me in this way?"

"What did he say?"

"He didn't have time to do it, but he loved the story. So he wanted me to do it."

"Well…"

Yang Lan was stunned for a moment, and said amusedly:

"Then you took it?"

"Yes, of course, there are other reasons. But really... the main reason for me to accept this script is actually him. He likes this story and thinks I can do it well, so I will do it."

Hearing what he said, Yang Lan didn't delve into the script...or the story told in "The Hawthorn Tree".

Instead, he asked curiously:

"It sounds like you have a deep trust in Director Zhang Yimou, don't you?"

"right."

"Then you said before that he is like your master. So where do you think he has the most profound influence on you? The Olympics? Or teaching you some filmmaking skills, ideas, etc... Why did he treat you so important?"

"Well…"

After thinking for a while, Xu Xin subconsciously sat up straight.

"I am a good friend with Mr. Yu Yu from the Deyun Club. So here is a quote from him...Of course, many friends may have heard of this saying. It is called a person's life, three points of ability, six points of luck, and the rest One point of noble support."

"It's a colloquial saying."

"That's right, but Teacher Yu's version has a slightly different point of view. According to his words, the role of noble support is actually greater than luck. In other words, according to his standard, it is three points His ability, seventy percent of noble support..."

"Ability is your foundation. After you have the foundation, it is more important to meet someone who is willing to support and help you, right?"

"Yes, that's right."

Xu Xin responded and said with a smile:

"For me, Director Zhang is first of all this noble man. Without him, I would not have participated in the Olympics, I would not have participated in the Olympics, and I would not have studied in the crew of "Golden Armor", and I would not have known him. Many friends... So, from this aspect, he is the noble person who changed my destiny.

On the other hand, he is also my teacher. We won't mention the director's level, technique, style and so on. I have only just started in this area. I think that as a teacher, the most important point of Director Zhang is to teach some of his life experience to others through years of hard work in this circle. I.

For example, the most important thing, and the point he asked me the most...don't separate yourself from the masses. "

"Is this a very important point to you?"

"Exactly."

Under Yang Lan's curious eyes, Xu Xin answered firmly:

“He told me that art comes from life, but it is higher than life. Many people know this sentence, but what many people don’t know is that this height must never be divorced from reality.

He said to me:

Xiao Xu, you must root yourself deeply in the soil of the people, and you must not swell. Only when you are rooted in life can you carefully feel the changes in your life. Only in this kind of change can we generate our own cognition. Once you get out of this soil, you are like a kite with a broken string.

Maybe you can fly very high, but you can no longer see the grass and trees in this world clearly. What you can't see, you can only rely on imagination, and what you imagine must be false from life. For the director, this is a very scary thing.

His point of view, to me, is like a motto. Let me not dare to relax half a minute every moment. "

Yang Lan seemed to agree with his words, and after Xu Xin finished speaking, he helped to summarize:

"So he's afraid you'll be one of those: why not eat meat."

"Yes, I am also afraid that I will become this kind of person."

Xu Xin gave his own response.

But Yang Lan suddenly changed the subject again at this time:

"But... as far as I know, your family is actually very good."

She switched very naturally, unlike other hosts who divide the interview content into paragraphs. I ask a question first, and then start another question after asking.

It feels like an ordinary chat.

Obviously from the recording of the show to the present, every question is asked by her, and Xu Xin is answering. But that feeling is very, very natural.

It's as if her question at this moment has naturally shifted from what Zhang Yimou taught the young director to Xu Xin's personal life.

Xu Xin was caught off guard by her question.

But after reacting, he nodded:

"That's right. My family is really well off."

"After all, when I was a freshman in college, according to what my wife said, I already drove a Ferrari all over the street and burned buns."

"But... ever since your name became known to the public, in the impression of many people, you have always been a very low-key person. I don't mean whether you have money or not, but that feeling. In fact, from your It can be seen that you bought a sports car when you were a freshman. You have also flaunted your wealth. But now, you seem to be very low-key. I want to know what kind of growth experience made you become what you are now Woolen cloth?"

"Well, this..."

Seeing him hesitate, Yang Lan asked with a smile:

"Is it difficult to answer?"

"It's not that it's difficult to answer, it's just that I'm thinking about how to let everyone understand my feelings. Instead of giving a bowl of chicken soup that is useless to everyone."

Xu Xin thought for a moment, then said:

"I think this process is like this... Let me use myself as a metaphor. I was also poor when I was a child. Before the coal mine was discovered in the underground of my house, my family was actually quite poor. Compare with the current salary. The poor in my family At that time, our family may only earn 5,000 yuan a year.

At that time, in my dad’s words, his biggest expectation was to earn 5,000 yuan a month. That way you can eat meat every meal, and you don’t have to worry about raising children.

Later, coal was found in the underground of our house, and the land was expropriated for the coal mine. All of a sudden, we were allocated several million. It's an overnight success, right? There is no need to worry about raising children, and there is meat to eat every day. Then all of a sudden the mood is different.

In the past, I dared to go to the county town the most when I went out, but when I had money in my pocket, I wanted to go to a big city. But when you come to Yanjing, come to Shanghai... you will find that a few million is nothing at all. You will still feel that you are poor.

So, you want to make more money and enjoy a better life.

But when you earn enough money and enjoy things that you couldn't get before... This is my current mentality. I have what I should have, and I have enjoyed what I should enjoy. Naturally, I don't care about these things. "

Speaking of this, he paused, looked at Yang Lang and said seriously:

"In fact, life is a circle. After going around in a circle, you will eventually find that you will return to the circle. Life and death are like this, rich and poor are like this. In the end, what you pursue is the open-mindedness of your own spiritual world. Don't be happy with things. Sorry, that's what I'm thinking right now.

So... In the eyes of many people, how much money I have earned, or what achievements I have achieved... For me, it is just the necessity that naturally appears around me when I am moving forward on this road . "

"It's like what you said in an interview at the film festival? Then can I understand that your pursuit of life and art can be summed up in one sentence: If you are in full bloom, flowers will come. The so-called fame and fortune, It seems inevitable to you."

"It is inevitable that after you find the right path, you continue to move forward and follow behind you. Whether it is the film industry, it is the same in every place in life. When you do anything, it is a little bit hard at the beginning, which is called having fun while suffering. And When you have made achievements, it is called suffering and reward.

For me, my way is like this. I don't care about the so-called fame, awards, money and so on. I love this industry and I want to keep doing it. And every achievement I have achieved is a flower blooming in the footprints left on the road I walked.

It will bloom beautifully, and it will make the road I walk look full of spring. However, this is not the reason for my footsteps. The mountain is there, I'm a climber, and I'm delighted by the beauty, but I never stand still. "

Xu Xin's words made Yang Lan's eyes sparkle.

She interviewed a lot of people, met a lot of people.

Some people just stepped on the wind of the times and became famous with the help of a gust of wind.

But often they regard these as the success they deserve.

The frog sits in a well, not knowing the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth.

As for those people who really admired or recognized her, they all had the same characteristics as the young man in front of her.

Know what you are doing and allow others to sing their praises.

But more often than not, they will continue to move towards their goals and remain steadfast.

This kind of firm persistence, in Yang Lang's view, is what a truly successful person should possess.

Sure enough, it is absolutely no accident that this young man can achieve such an achievement.

but inevitable.

The interview between Yang Lan and Xu Xin took about an hour.

These interviews will be finely cut into 30 minutes in these two days, and will be broadcast on Saturday afternoon on Yanjing TV.

This is her promise.

After all, Xu Xin will participate in this program, in order to promote the movie itself.

Xu Xin also gave his thanks.

Yang Lang seemed to like these woods a lot before, so he casually took a wood-carved pine ornament from the shelf in the study room and gave it to him.

Yang Lan still shirked, thinking it was too precious.

But Xu Xin didn't even know what this thing was.

Moreover, it is placed on the edge of the Bogu shelf, which shows that it is not a valuable thing.

Send it and send it.

Form a good relationship.

Finally, he personally bid farewell to the program crew and took Su Meng straight to Mtime.com under the movie channel.

There will be a trial screening and a media meeting in the afternoon.

Very busy.

However, after everyone left, Su Meng walked over with her mobile phone:

"Brother Xu, it's time."

Time, December 14, 2010, noon, 12:03.

At noon, a message on Weibo suddenly appeared, and then caused quite a stir with lightning speed.

"Exclusive news! Zhang Yimou's "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" training base and some actors exposed!"

As soon as this news appeared, the popularity quickly began to move in the direction of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins".

When the news came up, there was a big drama, about a dozen photos of the girls appearing in the hallway were released.

Photos of all the girls including Ni Ni, He Jun, and Li Xinru were exposed.

And also accompanied by a picture:

"The girls in Mou are full of confidence", "The girls in Mou are arranging their hair", "The girls in Mou have Jinling charm" and so on.

But judging from the pixels and colors, these pictures are obviously candid shots.

After releasing the picture, the journalist who broke the news wrote in the news:

"The reporter learned from an insider that the 13 heroines in Zhang Yimou's new film "Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" are undergoing secret training in a certain place in Yizhuang. Yesterday afternoon, the reporter made a special trip to the training place and learned from the surrounding office staff that in the photo The classroom is the training place for "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins". But this statement has not been confirmed with the new picture.

Arrived at the training place revealed by insiders at around 2:00 this afternoon. This building was originally an art training school, and there were not many teachers and students in the school. Only a few classrooms were being used, and one of them was particularly " lively".

According to the school's office staff, this classroom is the training place for "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins". When the reporter tried to enter the teaching building, he was blocked by the guard who declared that he would never enter without a certificate. Later, the author entered a commercial real estate opposite the teaching building to take long-distance shooting.

It can be seen from the blurry glass that there are nearly ten young girls in the classroom who are listening to the class seriously. There are more than a dozen desks and chairs neatly arranged in the classroom. In front of the window is a blackboard, and behind the blackboard is a dancer practicing on parallel bars. A woman who looks like a teacher is giving lectures in front of the blackboard and wearing a badge, which may be the ID the guard said..."

After explaining how he found the filming location of "Thirteen Hairpins", the reporter gave another big news at the end:

"After the reporter's unremitting efforts and various searches, I finally found clues about these actors on the Internet. The information of four of them has been obtained!

Li Xinru, a dance student from Yanjing, graduated with a bachelor’s degree in classical dance. She once played the role of Chang’e in the TV series "The Legend of the Lotus Lantern", the female lead Lin Wudi in the three parts of "Ugly Invincible", and Nanzi in "Confucius Spring and Autumn"!

Jiang Jing, graduated from Beijing Film Academy, was selected as "Olympic Baby" by Zhang Yimou in 2004, and participated in the eight-minute singing and dancing performance at the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympic Games. Film and television works include "Macao 1949", "Black Dream", "On the Riverside" and so on.

He Jun, graduated from Beijing Film Academy with a bachelor’s degree. His film and television works include "A friend of a friend is a friend", "The Taste of Palpitation", "Close to" and so on.

In addition, there is also an assistant director Fu Lulu in the crew, who is the assistant director of Zhang Yimou's movie "House of Flying Daggers", and participated in film and television works such as "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Soldiers on the Western Front", "My EEDS" , "Pain and Happiness" and so on.

Reporters have found actors’ microblogs from these materials. In the daily activities of these actors’ microblogs, we can clearly see their mental journey during the preparation of the film. The three actors posted messages such as "Charm, charm, practice you thousands of times!", "Get up early, start training, for the next movie", "If you want to play a very feminine role, what are the talents from all walks of life?" It's feminine." Wait for Weibo.

In addition, the reporter also found a selfie photo of them trying on the cheongsam!

It is 100% sure that these four people are the four actors in "Thirteen Hairpins"! ..."

Yizhuang, inside the training school.

After reading the report posted on the Internet with a livid face, Zhang Yimou gritted his teeth and said to Zhang Mo next to him:

"Notify everyone, meeting!"

"Okay... Will Sister Fu inform you?"

"...don't notify, just call others!"

Zhang Yimou's anger is already real.

Zhang Mo nodded and left quickly.

After walking out the door, her solemn expression turned into a rush of impatience.

She quickly took out her mobile phone, found Fu Lulu's phone number, and sent her a message:

"Sister Fu, the news has come out."

Fu Lulu replied in seconds:

"I saw it, is Director Zhang... angry?"

"I'm very angry, but sister Fu, don't worry, with me and Xu Xin here, you will never have anything to do. I promise! But... You may be wronged for a while."

"…Ok, I know."

"Okay, I'm calling everyone for a meeting now, but my dad didn't call you. Don't worry, there won't be any problems."

"I'm sorry, Momo."

Obviously Fu Lulu is the one who "makes things happen", but at this moment, Zhang Mo can clearly feel her anxiety when looking at the content of the text message she sent.

She understands... just the guarantee she gave is not enough.

So she sent Xu Xin a message:

"The news has been sent out. My dad asked everyone to have a meeting. Sister Fu was a little nervous. I comforted her and she didn't believe it. Do you want to call her?"

"I saw it, and I'm telling Mengmeng to go home to pick up things. Don't worry, Mengmeng will take care of it in a while, don't worry. I'm still promoting here, so I won't pass it this time."

Seeing this message, Zhang Mo breathed a sigh of relief:

"okay!"

"Remember, death is severely punished."

"clear!"

On the other side, Xu Xin, who was about to enter the scene to face the reporter, replied to this message and said to the Apple earphone:

"Then... If something like that happens this afternoon, I'll be counting on you... Well, okay, you'll be busy first, I'll hang up."

I don't know who he said to.

After finishing speaking, he took off the earphones and handed the phone to Su Meng.

It's time to go on stage.
