My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 839 Old Tool Man
PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket.

Beijing, Kunlun Hotel.

In the corridor outside the executive suite, the carpet pattern is very serious and lively.

The night is hazy, the birds are hazy.

A door quietly opened.

The handsome man carried his clothes, tiptoed out of the room, closed the door gently, for fear of making any noise, looked around, saw no one around, heaved a sigh of relief, and walked quickly towards the elevator.

Ten minutes later.

In the same room, tall and slender, wearing a black hip-covering skirt with thin silk stiletto heels, the slender Gao Lihong also came out with a rosy face and a charming attitude.

A thick coat and Hermes Kun bag were draped over her arms, and she pulled and tidied up the hem of the skirt.

His body swayed, his legs almost went limp.

A large scale for one night.

Cough~ Wu Xiaozu drank a little wine last night, and for some reason, he started to talk about night dramas...

Hey ~
This kind of daily work spirit is indeed difficult for Director Wu, regardless of hard work, regardless of health, and forgetting to sleep and eat.

Wang Xianxian, Gao Lihong, Gong Li, Xu Qing, Jiang Wenli and others were actually arranged in the training center. Of course, the first three actually stayed at the Kunlun Hotel. Experience life together, so I didn't come back.

Wu Xiaozu severely criticized Gao Lihong's "deserter" behavior, and praised and affirmed Wang Xianxian on the phone.

Seriously corrected Gao Lihong's wrong behavior this time.

The other party also deeply felt the loopholes in his own attitude, and deeply reviewed his mistakes.Fortunately, Wu Xiaozu knew that she was still a good actor, worthy of saving and fostering, so he gave her a profound education. . . . . .

"Director Wu?"

As soon as Xiaozu Wu walked into the meeting room, he saw Zhang Yimou sitting inside with a notebook spread out early, leaning over his desk and writing quickly. When Xiaozu Wu appeared, he greeted him unexpectedly.

"Are you here so early?"

"It's not today's seminar. I can't sleep anyway. Why don't I come here early and do some work. I have studied the women's volleyball team from the 70s to the present..."

"Is this a storyboard script??"

"Huh? Oh, oh, yes... When I was in Hong Kong Island some time ago, I originally agreed to Tsui Hark to star in "Terracotta Warriors". You know... my... so what... not now... really "I'm sorry, I wanted to make up for it."

"clear."

It's just that I still wanted to be a spare tire, but when I turned around, I found out that it had been unloaded.

No talent, the person who unloaded is mere.

"Director Wu, would you like a movie like "The Terracotta Warriors" if you don't consider favors or other things?"

"I still like it, it's true, kind and beautiful." Wu Xiaozu handed Ah Mou a cigar, leaned on the chair, twirled the cigar and sniffed it lightly.

"But you can't shoot?"

"The main reason is that I can't shoot that kind of enthusiasm and piety. When I was in France some time ago, I talked with the French producer Claude Berry about a project. Have you seen "Lover?"

"The Lover by Duras."

"Correct."

Wu Xiaozu lit the cigar and took a sip of the late after-the-fact cigar. The exhaustion and satisfaction were all wrapped in the smoke and slowly spit out.

"Instead, I am more interested in this kind of spiritual and sexual feelings, or if you have read my "Suspect", you will understand that I also like the kind of feelings that are placed in a hidden dimension.

Stone God's feelings are different from those in "The Terracotta Warriors".I can't shoot the kind written by Li Bihua.Maybe what I know is either realistic or extreme.

This may be related to my experience and my background. I am very envious of directors who can make such big, comprehensive and very beautiful things. "

Zhang Yimou nodded thoughtfully.

"I understand that most of what the director shoots is his own perception of life and appreciation of things. Subjectivity is very important."

"I see you copied many other things?"

Wu Xiaozu curiously picked up one of Lao Mouzi's notebooks, and found that it was full of various materials copied, including the changes in women's volleyball costumes since the 70s, and even graffiti on technical movement analysis. My own interpretation of "Women's Volleyball" and the simple lens design of Wang Zuzhen, Gong Li and others.

"Do you like to transcribe everything? Or do you mean that all mainland directors are like this?"

Yes, I believe in a saying, it is better to see it with your hands a thousand times than with your eyes, but I don't understand others.

To put it bluntly, I actually relied on this when I first learned photography.

That was when I was interested in photography, so I found a lot of photography books, including "Landscape Photography Composition" by the senior Xue Zijiang.The book said that if you want to do photography, you'd better wash and put it away by yourself, so I read a lot of books in the dark room..." Zhang Yimou also learned how to light a cigar, took a deep puff, and his eyes protruded instantly.

"Cough cough cough cough..."

Zhang Yimou almost burst into tears, coughing violently, "Ahem... To be honest, I don't quite understand it."

"Inhale lightly, just feel it in your mouth." Wu Xiaozu reminded, he was afraid that Ah Mou would be able to suck himself back if he sucked so hard, this operation of sucking into the lungs is absolutely amazing.

"If you read the book a hundred times, you will see its meaning."

"Yes, I recognize this."

Zhang Yimou smiled awkwardly, "After three years of copying, I seem to understand a little bit. I have developed such a habit over the years. When filming "Red Sorghum", I found that I didn't understand before. Things, probably understand a lot.

But looking back at "Red Sorghum" now, I still feel that the degree of completion is a little bit lacking, if it is remade, it may be much better..."

"I think the beauty of "Red Sorghum" lies in the large amount of hormones and shocks caused by this ignorance and roughness.

You know that Hollywood theorist Wendy Jane Hansen said that for start-ups, the first draft often reflects the original intention of the creator.

When I watched "Red Sorghum" for the first time, I was surprised by the unbalanced fullness.

Some time ago in Venice... Marco Muller sighed when he was chatting. He didn't expect directors from mainland China to have such a wild attempt. This extremely gorgeous red is so shocking. Conflict makes people feel visual impact.The exuberant vitality and strong desire can be seen at a glance. "

Wu Xiaozu really likes "Red Sorghum" which has not been edited under that kind of distortion, it is rough and full of vitality.The whole composition and color are too full, and the fiery feeling rushes to your face, just like a first-time brother who has never been human.

"Hehe..." Zhang Yimou couldn't hide a smile on his old face, but he waved his hands as modestly as a layer cake. Brother Chen Kai and the others never mentioned such a compliment.

"Director Wu, your use of light is good. Your positioning and lighting are really unique. I have seen so many film directors, and there are not many directors who can do better than you... On the contrary, I still have a lot of room for improvement. , we still need a lot of criticism.”

"You seem to have always cared about what outsiders think of you?" Wu Xiaozu asked curiously.

"A sense of identity. Just like what you said, Director Wu, my own background and experience have created my own personality and style, and my background and experience have also affected my personality. Sometimes, I especially admire your occasional revealing Kind of sharp..." Zhang Yimou paused, with a sense of sadness and helplessness.

For his words, Wu Xiaozu understood in his heart.

The family composition is not good, black five categories, father will not say, he was a military quartermaster of the fruit party before, the second uncle in the family was designated as a hidden spy, and the uncle was an official in Wanwan...

It is really not easy to get out of this family composition.

"I think I learned things quickly at that time, maybe because of fear. When I was in junior high school... I was catching up with XXXXX, and the mischievous students became XXX. I was not born well, and I couldn't be XXX. I lived in fear all day long. middle."

Zhang Yimou's face resembled Wu Shan's aura, Xiao Sen flickered, and added, "But I'm popular, so I didn't get beaten much.

At that time, I wrote big slogans beautifully, and at the same time, I was very good at drawing super giant portraits.

On the contrary, it is often requisitioned by various XXX teams.At that time, I felt able to be requisitioned, especially fulfilled, and recognized and recognized.

It feels like I can finally go from a fringe figure to a cog.

The praises from fellow villagers were my favorite voice at that time.At that time, I had a realization that I was probably instrumentalizing myself. "

Hearing Xiao Mouzi talking about the past, Wu Xiaozu nodded silently.

Feelings are old tool people~
Then I have no burden at all.

Zhang Yimou is indeed a person who has been particularly instrumentalized, especially at the beginning of the century, there are endless voices scolding him, and he has been hacked to the extreme. "Heroes" was once scolded to the point of national decline.

Looking back, isn't "Hero" a masterpiece? ?

There are many people who scold him, but it is difficult for you to see who he stands up and scolds.In fact, Lao Mouzi fits the Chinese definition of a film master and a literary worker.

It's not like Brother Kai, because he was spoofed, he felt that his dignity was touched, and he chose to have a steamed bun with blood in his anus.

Here is a word of white hat~ It is true that a master who has such art and business in his hand will not arrange to play, it is really petty.

In this life, Wu Xiaozu must not leave behind the ace pilot of the Dreyfus Alliance.

Slightly weak in story logic?

Don't be afraid!
Do you see that "Red Sorghum" is poorly spoken? Is the story of "To Live" poorly told?
It's nothing more than Lao Mouzi's high requirements for scripts... In this world, is there anyone who has more themes and scripts than Wu Xiaozu for Zhang Yimou to choose from? ?
He looked at Zhang Yimou, who was scribbling and writing, and looked over. He looked like an ace tool man...

How come the ravine face and deep nasolabial folds are filled with that down-to-earth temperament of an old scalper? ?
Zhang Baimao really used Zhang Yimou as a tool, and even after the 'breakup', the other party still owed the debts~~~~ Such an artist has not even earned as much as Xiaoxianrou for so many years...

Since Emperor Gong has left you, I will not take you in anymore, am I still a human being?

Wu Xiaozu looked at Zhang Yimou with a smile on his face, no matter how he looked at it, it was delicious.

Zhang Yimou, who was writing, suddenly shuddered.

"Drink some hot water."

Wu Xiaozu smiled and personally poured a cup of hot water from the thermos, and handed the white porcelain teacup to the other party. Before anyone came, he took the initiative to say with great interest: "I heard Brother Kai and Zhuang Zhuang joked that you once sold Blood to buy a camera? True or false?"

What is the biggest melon on Ah Mou at this time?
Of course, it was a red apricot trip to hook up with Emperor Gong, and this move was really degrading.

But if you take a closer look at the fifth generation, from Jiumengzi Farm to Chen Kai, the literary ruffian, which one is alone?

Of course~ What's wrong with the director being more emotional? ?

This is very useful for the spark of artistic creation. Look, why is Wu Xiaozu so prolific in movies?

Without the muses to provide inspiration, can he bring good works to the audience?
Walking on the road of art, it is inevitable to be talked about by others...

Wu Xiaozu dismissed this, went his own way, let others say it, one day, bystanders will see your efforts——

You see, "Daily Daily", "Hong Kong Island Finance", "Hong Kong Island Daily", "New Era", "Bagua Weekly", "Entertainment Weekly", "Financial Daily", "Fresh Weekly", "E[-] TV" , "Youth", "Star Movie", "Harper's Bazaar"... These newspapers and periodicals all understand the artist's difficulties, and have seldom reported related gossip and gossip?

Other entertainment newspapers rarely blatantly blackmail Wu Xiaozu?

What does this mean?
Of course, it shows that Director Wu is not afraid of the slanting shadow, and it shows Director Wu's hard work, which makes everyone agree with Director Wu's artistic quality!

╯ (╯ ▽ ╰) ╭

How much does this have to do with being rich?Can you do whatever you want with money?
This is still Wu Dao's own hard work!Ok!invalid objection.

PS: There are more.
