Chapter 82 080. Vanves
Zhang Yimou focused his attention on Yang Mi.
Head to toe.
carefully looked at the transparent.
After he came in, apart from the pale face at the beginning, Yang Mi had already adjusted all her mentality in just a second or two.
Stand up straight, raise your head slightly to reveal your slender neck, use the upturned corners of your mouth to drive all the muscles on your face, and make a soft and elegant smile.
The whole person does not look like an actor, but more like a dummy model in a window.
It seems to be frozen.
While Zhang Yimou was watching, the others were also watching.
Wei Lanfang's eyes were straightened.
Staring straight at the **** the podium...
Or looking straight at her chest...
My head is full of one idea:
"Xu Xin, this kid...you are blessed!"
As a woman, she can naturally see... how good this girl's figure is.
Or…
Recalling the dressing style of the two people meeting these two times, as well as the natural figure display...
This girl is definitely a figure that looks thin and fleshy when she undresses!
This kind of girl is the best!
Xiao Xu...
You boy...
At this moment, Zhang Yimou had already sat next to Cheng Xiaodong.
"How about it?"
Cheng Xiaodong turned his head and whispered.
His movement was very small, which made Zhang Yimou a little stunned.
Obviously didn't understand why the other party's voice was so low.
However, he still cooperated and looked at Yang Mi again, and nodded:
"Xiao Xu is a very good classmate, he can punch in the face."
His voice is not loud.
After hearing this, Cheng Xiaodong made sure he saw clearly, and said:
"Okay, Yang Mi, go change your clothes, go back and wait for the notification... Then everyone, if there are no accidents, we will officially start filming tomorrow on April Fool's Day. Now the directors of each department go back and confirm the various equipment, Ah Chen , Let the martial artists go through the moves again... Ting Xiao, you go and arrange it, and when everyone has changed their clothes, call the actors into the conference room to check their lines...Okay, let's go to work."
Although Cheng Xiaodong is said to be the action director of this show, but in fact Zhang Yimou doesn't speak, so he is the biggest in the whole crew.
He and Director Zhang became friends in "Heroes". After so many years, the relationship is very good, and they are inseparable. And this time, as an action director, he is not only responsible for the actors' fight scenes, but also helps Director Zhang undertake part of the shooting content, which can be seen from the fact that he is also a member of the Olympic team.
So his speech is equivalent to Zhang Yimou's speech.
Besides...
Everyone is not stupid, Cheng Dao suddenly bypassed Zhang Dao to assign tasks to everyone, and said to go to work after the fitting, but he himself did not move.
At a glance, he knew that he had something to say to Director Zhang.
Then go.
Everyone began to exit.
Even Wei Lanfang is the same.
After everyone left the conference room one after another, Cheng Xiaodong pointed at Assistant Lin:
"Xiao Lin, you should go out too."
"Okay, Director Cheng, then I'll be at the door."
As Assistant Lin said, he walked outside and closed the door behind him.
There are only two people left in the whole room.
Zhang Yimou looked at Cheng Xiaodong and asked in a normal voice:
"What's wrong?"
"Yimou, Xiao Xu is a good classmate. Wearing this kind of ancient costume has a natural charm. At first I thought she was too thin, but when I put on this dress today, I realized that this girl has a good figure."
"..."
Zhang Yimou did not say a word, and continued to nod:
"Well...but the face looks thin, it doesn't fit well..."
Speaking of this, after a little thought, he shook his head:
"Her way of acting, if you want to follow the ancient style, can run through history, but she can't play Tang. She lacks that plump beauty...Xiaodong, let me tell you what you mean."
After expressing his point of view, he couldn't help asking Cheng Xiaodong.
And there are no outsiders now, and Cheng Xiaodong will not hide it, and said directly:
"I want to use her as Li Man's substitute."
"...Jiang Chan??"
Zhang Yimou was taken aback, and subconsciously frowned:
"...Tell me, what do you think."
"Actually, it's very simple. It's a conspiracy. This happened to Li Man, and now the manager is hiding it and not explaining the real situation. In my estimation, she may not be able to recover in a short time after being bitten by a mosquito. And you have to know... The filming plan we made, the filming of the literary drama will start tomorrow. Every hour when the queen takes medicine, Jiang Chan will be there. In Liu Ye's role, the role of Jiang Chan also interacts. The filming plan is in Well, unless you rearrange things, the role of Jiang Chan will be there when filming starts tomorrow, right?"
"This can be changed."
Listening to Cheng Xiaodong's words, Zhang Yimou said directly:
"Take out Jiang Chan's scene first, and shoot other people's."
"I know, but don't forget Gong Li..."
"..."
When Cheng Xiaodong mentioned this, Zhang Yimou frowned.
"Do you think she will agree to wait for an actress handpicked by Weiping? Li Man is a newcomer, so let Gong Li wait? Let's not talk about her relationship with Weiping, just normal... Do you think it's appropriate?" ? Who is Gong Li? Waiting for a newcomer in the industry? Where is her face going?"
"..."
Zhang Yimou was silent, frowning.
Because Cheng Xiaodong mentioned an unsolvable hurdle.
Let a real actress who has won numerous awards at home and abroad wait for a new actor?
After this is said in the industry, how far will Gong Li's social status be lowered?
Will her management team agree?
It is impossible to agree.
Not to mention...the other party is Zhang Weiping's.
She can even drive Zhang Weiping away, otherwise she will stop acting...Zhang Yimou knows the character of his ex-girlfriend very well.
But…
"She's too skinny."
Zhang Yimou thought for a while, then shook his head:
"It's definitely okay to be beautiful, but you have to understand that our background is alluding to Hou Tang... If a supporting role is okay, if she plays Jiang Chan, she is too thin."
"Then do you still have time to choose actors? Although I know that once you speak, those companies will definitely be able to fill your table with information about actresses. But the question is... What do you say about Weiping?"
"..."
"Didn't I just say that she was a backup. Because I read the filming plan, the dates for the soldiers seconded by us and the military region are fixed. They have already signed the contract for the last scene. If you change it, you can change it." It’s not easy to change it, let’s not mention it, let’s take that time as the axis. At most, the scenes of Gong Li, Jiang Chan, and Liu Ye can be delayed for five days. Five days is the limit..."
Speaking of this, Cheng Xiaodong paused... as if he was thinking. And with this silence, his eyes gradually became brighter:
"We are friends. I won't play tricks with you. I'll tell you straight. The question now is what's going on with Li Man. Xiao Shen hasn't brought any news yet. Are you going to find a brokerage company to change actors?" What if Li Man recovers quickly and is not that serious?
Then what is this matter?
To put it mildly, it is an oolong. But as long as this news is released to the brokerage company, the wind will definitely leak out. This drama has Jay Chou, Gong Li who will reunite with you after many years, and Zhou Renfa. In addition to the investment and production, Weiping spent a lot of effort in the early publicity.
If it was suddenly reported that the role was changed, but it didn’t change in the end... What do you think those reporters who are catching wind and shadow will say? Gossip about the production team must be flying everywhere, right?
Also, let’s take it a step further... If you talk to Weiping, then based on my understanding of him...even if it is to disgust Gong Li, he will definitely ask you to hold on...Gong Li signed the contract. If she strikes out or something, she'll lose money. Do you want this money? Whether you want it or not, Weiping will not let her go.
Even if Gong Li can act, because of Li Man, how will her status be affected? Do you think her management team will not be clear? This is called smashing people's jobs, a conspiracy. "
Without the slightest reservation, Cheng Xiaodong, who was born in the martial arts of Xiangjiang and has witnessed the rise and fall of Xiangjiang film, and countless brokerage companies and associations fighting for the interests of the film, is much more sensitive to these things than Zhang Yimou.
At this moment, facing his friends, he chose to confess his heart:
"I don't comment on the matter between you and Weiping, but you also have to understand... Weiping wants to make money, and wants to make more money. He is already very dissatisfied with you for taking over the Olympic job. I can understand that Li Man is His people are related to the follow-up operation of some resources of him and several big entertainment companies... But this is something that Li Man and the others created by themselves. It has nothing to do with you and me, right? We have to be responsible for the crew and the script of "Thunderstorm" , and at the same time have to be responsible for the Olympic Games.
He will not allow you to give the role of Jiang Chan to those brokerage companies that have not given him enough benefits. As long as you get your "girlfriend", then an actress can rise to the top. This is also the reason why Weiping started to hype about seeking girls this time. Do you think Weiping will allow you to change at will for a character who can get unparalleled attention after debut?
What about the two companies, Hesong and Huanrui, who are fighting for Li Man? They promised benefits, but since Li Man didn't sign with the company, and you have to use the actors in the brokerage company... the benefits he got can be sky-high and bottom-to-bottom.
So, he will definitely let you wait for Li Man, but the key is that we don't even know what Li Man is like now! Her manager didn't even let Xiao Shen see or inquire! You tell me whether this person is looking for you or Weiping? And if you wait for her, it’s okay if you can wait until, everyone can still be in harmony, but let me tell you, the limit, the limit is five days. Five days later, there is still no one to wait for. If Weiping doesn't say anything, Gong Li will definitely blow up. Believe it or not? "
The frank confession of a friend has revealed all the pros and cons.
Or speak out for Zhang Yimou.
Those who practice martial arts must have loyalty.
Yimou is a friend, even if you can’t make decisions for your friend, help him recognize these facts.
Although he also understands...you don't need to say it yourself, Yimou can figure it out.
But his heart is too soft.
He has never experienced what he experienced in Xiangjiang. It can be said that "the debut is the pinnacle". After all, he has never been stabbed by someone. I don't know how much filth and unbearableness is buried under the seemingly healthy and healthy ecological soil in some circles.
It's not that he doesn't understand, but his starting point is the rules of the state-owned film studio system in the special era of the Chinese dynasty. After jumping out of the rules of the state-owned film studio, he became famous and crossed the lowest ecological zone.
His fame, his strength, his understanding of movies... These have made him a director who no one can question. No matter how filthy they are behind their backs, everyone must pretend to be innocent in front of him to disguise themselves.
But now...the times change, everything changes, even the friends around him change again.
And these changes are too similar to the stories of those close friends Cheng Xiaodong met in Xiangjiang who were suddenly stabbed in the back for profit.
He doesn't have much energy, and he can't block a knife that may appear at any time for Yi Mou. Therefore, before "leaving", his armor should be fixed tightly.
So, he looked at Zhang Yimou who was frowning and remained silent.
He uttered the last earnest words:
"Five days is the conclusion I came to after reading the filming plan... I mean, this girl is just a substitute. If Li Man can come back, everyone is happy. If she can't come back... at least this girl doesn't have an ugly face. There is this condition , As long as you can cover your mouth tightly, then it is the most suitable candidate, isn’t it? Shut this matter to death and digest it internally. Weiping has already invested so much money, and I believe he can make a choice.”
"..."
Zhang Yimou remained silent for a long time.
Leaning on the chair, I don't know what to think.
…
"Hey, what are you talking about in the meeting?... Is it the kind of people who scold Fang Qiu, what our artistic concept wants to convey to the world... What about you? Are you just like a soldier, right there Nodding: Yes, Director Zhang is right, Director Li is right, Director Ma is right..."
In Xu Xin's room, the girl who had already changed into the usual baggy clothes and removed her hair, but hadn't removed her makeup yet, but her lip gloss had turned into a normal color, asked curiously.
"What you said has nothing to do with my opinion."
Xu Xin, who was reading the script with the script in his hand, rolled his eyes.
Yang Mi who was sitting on the big bed smiled:
"I'm just curious. And why are you reading the script now? Shouldn't you keep thinking about Olympic ideas?"
“Thinking creatively is not my thing.”
Putting down "Wulin Biography" in his hand, Xu Xin lit a cigarette.
Without further words, Yang Mi got up and opened the window in the house.
"Hiss~ The proposition of the Olympic Games is too big, understand? Creativity needs, but it is more in line with the spirit of the Celestial Dynasty. As for the control of this aspect, if you can go to a meeting with me, you will understand, it is really powerful It is Zhang Dao and the others who are the best. People at their level have their own ideas about what kind of art can express what kind of spirit. So in front of their teachers, I am like a classmate."
"Yo yo yo~ are you so humble with me?"
The girl looked at him with a teasing smile on her face.
But Xu Xin shook his head:
"No, what I told you is true... Don't look at me now that I have made some achievements, but in fact, the starting point of all my ideas and inspirations is the thinking link left by Director Zhang. He is the chief director, There are a lot of ideas in my head, and I still have a clear understanding of my abilities. I think which one of Director Zhang’s ideas is better, and I designed a plan. It’s as simple as that... Not everyone is needed for the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games They all have their own minds... Well, that’s not right. It allows us to have our own minds, but the only brain is Director Zhang, understand? It’s the difference.”
"So you're not a producer, you're a transporter?"
"Well, that's what it means... I still don't have enough ability, understand? Just like "Guernica", there are still too many things to learn."
"But they're not as hands-on as you, hehe, right?"
"Keep playing, I like it~"
"Goose goose goose goose goose~"
The girl smiled happily, and squeaked again.
While laughing, he quietly leaned towards Xu Xin.
As a result, just after taking two steps, Xu Xin covered the script with a "snap":
"Get out~"
"cut~"
The girl who failed in her trick pursed her lips.
"When I really send the money to others, you can look at it at that time. But not now~"
"Don't let the look down..."
"Think about what to eat for lunch first, I'll make a call."
Seeing that he was busy, Yang Mi stopped talking, but pointed to the laptop:
"I go up and down QQ."
"Um."
After handing her the laptop, Xu Xin called Shang Jing.
"Dudu, hello, little...Xu Xin, hello."
Hearing Shang Jing's address, Xu Xin smiled and said:
"Director Shang, you can just call me Xiao Xu."
"Uh... um... what's the matter? Has the investment been confirmed?"
"No, the person Director Zhang is looking for hasn't arrived yet, and he will come over in two days... But Director Shang, don't worry, I still say the same thing, if I want money, I can transfer it to you now."
"Don't, don't, don't, I'm busy with venues and characters today."
"Well...it's like this, Director Shang."
After thinking about it, Xu Xin turned on the speakerphone and asked with the script:
"Is it convenient for you to speak now?"
"Convenient."
Shang Jing’s affirmative voice came from the loudspeaker:
"I'm still at home right now."
"Okay... Then I will talk to you about the things in the script."
"Well, yes, you say."
"I have some doubts about the role of Zhu Wushuang."
"..."
On the other end of the phone, Shang Jing suddenly fell silent.
Then he asked:
"What doubts?"
"Positioning the problem."
Xu Xin flipped through the script in his hand:
"I have watched 42 episodes now. Zhu Wushuang started to appear in the 31st episode as Bai Zhantang's junior sister. After the 39th episode, after she chose Xiao Guo because of Lu Xiucai, she left a set for her. The scholar's clothes are gone... Will she still have a role in the future?"
“…that’s all for now.”
"It doesn't appear later, right?"
"Yes...but it can be added."
Shang Jing suddenly said this.
But Xu Xin didn't care, but asked in surprise:
"Whether to add or not, I'm actually very confused about this character. At the beginning you told me that Zhu Wushuang's role is a more important role in the next scene...but she only appeared in these few episodes. And to be honest, apart from I don't see any difference between her and the other characters except for promoting Xiucai's relationship with Xiao Guo. So...
I was wondering, what is the role of this character? Why does it feel so abrupt? …Even I thought about it, even without Zhu Wushuang, as long as any female character appears…then this script can completely use one episode of the story, which can be used as a catalyst to make the relationship between Xiao Guo and Xiucai go further. So this character...in my opinion, the role of these episodes is very inexplicable. "
"..."
Shang Jing on the other end of the phone fell silent again.
Xu Xin was puzzled and asked on the phone:
"Director Shang?"
"I'm... hey."
Shang Jing let out a long sigh:
"Xiao Xu, let me tell you the truth."
"Yeah, you said."
"It's like this...Actually, the role of Zhu Wushuang was cast in one episode at the beginning, just like you said, it was used as a catalyst for the relationship between Lu Xiucai and Guo Furong. But...you know, I can't get this drama. Invested. So...the reason why I marked this role as the main actor...Actually, I thought that if any investor had any actresses to arrange here..."
"..."
Xu Xin's mouth twitched.
Yang Mi, who was on QQ, turned her head subconsciously.
"Anyway, my "Story of the Cooking Class" is not bad, let alone praise it, but if it is some unknown... small actors, right? Arranged here, it will satisfy the investors... That's why the role of Zhu Wushuang The reason for expanding the role. But indeed, according to what you said, Zhu Wushuang's role can actually end in one episode, but after hearing my opinion, the God of Wealth added it to nine episodes..."
Speaking of this, Shang Jing paused.
seems to be thinking about something.
Then the topic changed slightly:
"Of course, you look at the relationship between the characters and find that she is useless. But in fact, in the scripts of these episodes, whether it is the dialogue and interaction of the characters, the interaction of the scene, etc., the God of Wealth's design is really good. Episode 39 is naturally offline , I think it's okay. And...Xiao Xu, if you have any recommendations, you can come here, I think the girl we met at the door that day is very nice..."
"..."
"...????????"
Yang Mi's eyes straightened instantly.
What do you mean?
I just met with you.
As soon as you heard that Xu Xin invested in your TV series, you aimed at me?
Listen to what this means...
I picked another character for nothing?
What are you doing?
What's wrong with me?
Brother, let’s not do this, can I, I’m afraid of being struck by lightning when I go out!
Is the Xu Xin you are talking about my peerless grievance?
Do you have to let me **** his blood and **** him to death?
And Xu Xin was also a little confused:
"Yang Mi...?"
Subconsciously looked at the girl who was staring at her.
"Yes... Zhu Wushuang's setting in the series is youthful and beautiful. The girl's appearance is very suitable... Actually, it depends on what you mean, Xiao Xu. Because I have decided on the other main characters, they are my original cast members, and The role of Wushuang doesn’t require that much acting skills, as long as the person is beautiful. If you think it’s okay...or you want someone around you to play it, then come and audition, how about it?”
"..."
"..."
On the other end of the phone, Xu Xin and Yang Mi stared with big eyes...
The original intention was to talk about the position of the role of Zhu Wushuang with the monk guide...how did it end up...
Suddenly going towards the unspoken rules?
After thinking about it, Xu Xin said:
"That's it...then... okay, I see, Director Shang, let's talk about it later, when the person Director Zhang found for me arrives, I'll see what I can do, and then I'll contact you again?"
"Okay, no problem, so I hang up?"
"Yeah, you hang up now. Goodbye, Director Shang."
When Shang Jing hung up the phone, Xu Xin subconsciously turned his attention to the girl again.
Yang Mi was also speechless.
"I...let me tell you first...you..."
Her lips move slightly...
The voice is stuttering:
"If you have... have any plans for me... you... you say it in advance... ah bah! No, not in advance, you... don't say it..."
"What did I... say?"
Xu Xin was also dumbfounded.
Because he really didn't expect that Zhu Wushuang turned out to be such a position.
...
Why is it so strange?
Then I saw the girl shaking her head like a rattle:
"No, no...don't say...you mustn't say..."
"I didn't mean to say..."
"Then don't say it!...Don't arrange for me, I...I really won't go! I...I'm not a big actor, thank you!"
I don't know if she really panicked or what happened.
Suddenly he couldn’t choose what to say:
"I'm just a little actor... You gotta find someone prettier than me to dive in... No no no, no, I mean, I know I'm pretty... You... Ouch! You're annoying! I..."
"You wait!"
Seeing that she was about to run out after getting out of bed, Xu Xin stopped her dumbfoundedly:
"What are you doing so nonsense? ... Sit there, honestly."
One finger to the laptop:
"Director Shang misunderstood the relationship between us, but I didn't mean that, can you stop thinking about it?"
"...I didn't mean that, I just thought I was delaying you!"
The girl shook her head:
"Really, I think I'm delaying you too much... Just being with you... No, just when I appeared with you, didn't you realize that I always have some inexplicable opportunities. I met Director Zhang and auditioned This crew, and now...the director of "The Story of the Cooking Class" even said that I can play this...what Yang Wushuang."
"I wish Wushuang."
"Oh yes, Zhu Wushuang. Anyway, I always let others misunderstand you, and I'm still...wasting your network resources...I don't mean to waste...I will definitely work hard...but I feel...with you, I just sit with you Like a rocket, moving forward... I can't let you lose too much favor from others, you understand? We've only been together for a few days? I got so many opportunities out of nowhere... People who don't know think you're so prosperous Woolen cloth…"
"Vanves!???"
Xu Xin was dumbfounded.
Then there was a burst of dumbfounding:
"Then what do you mean? Break up friendship?"
"Don't don't..."
The girl quickly shook her head again:
"I mean... the two of us really have to avoid it in front of outsiders in the future, understand?"
"So you're going to sneak out?"
"It's not a sneak, it's an open door."
She opened the door with a snap.
Then sat on the bed again:
"I can't let others misunderstand our relationship and think that helping me is...to please you or something. In this way, you will bear a lot of human debts because of me. I can't do this."
She shook her head:
"The debt of favor is too difficult to repay..."
Looking at Xu Xin, her eyes are firm and serious:
"Absolutely not."
"..."
be honest.
Xu Xin felt very warm in his heart.
But before he had time to express himself, suddenly, his phone rang.
"...Hello? Hello?...Ah? Assistant Lin, hello...Yang Mi...She is right next to me."
"...??"
Yang Mi was suddenly taken aback.
Then I saw Xu Xin turn on the phone for speakerphone:
"I've turned on the speakerphone, Assistant Lin, tell me."
"Okay, it's like this... Director Zhang just told me that I have a script in my hand. Teacher Xu, if you two are together, then I will go up and deliver it to you. You two wait for me a moment ..."
"???????"
The girl just felt a "buzz" in her head...
His eyes locked on Xu Xin who was also astonished.
For some reason, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that under his short hair, there were three words written in golden light:
"Take advantage of it."
…
Brothers, 14,500 updates a day is really a lot...
