China Entertainment's turbulent era

Chapter 23 The Sun Also Rises A Brechtian Film

Splashy!

Joe Hisaishi, as a master of music, of course knows that there is a suona instrument, but he only knows that what he listens to is the overseas performances of our domestic suona performing artists.

This kind of performance mainly plays classics such as "Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix".

In other words, Joe Hisaishi didn't know where the suona instrument appears more often in our country now.

As a master of music, all he hears is the pure music from the instrument Suona.

This music... He really has never heard such "Summer of Kikujiro" before!
In fact, the real name of this song is "summer", which means 'summer', and when we translate it, it is simply called "Summer of Kikujiro".

In the original soundtrack of this movie, this song is ranked first, but the last song in this album is called "summer-road".

That is, 'Summer Road'.

The song 'Summer' is very cheerful.

The last "Summer's Road" has a serious and solemn beginning, but in the latter part, it returns to the melody of "Summer".

In this way, the beginning and the end echoed.

Hisaishi let himself say that he really likes "Summer". The melody of this song is not complicated, but it gives people a very special pleasure.

At this moment, under the playing of a suona, this joy is magnified countless times!
Shen Fang didn't think too much, he even played with his eyes closed, he really liked this piece, he was naturally immersed in the music.

Until the end of the song.

"Splashy!"

Joe Hisaishi couldn't help standing up and giving applause, which made Shen Fang blush a little.

The other party is a real master of music and film soundtrack. From Hayao Miyazaki to Takeshi Kitano, Joe Hisaishi gave one classic track after another.

And this time...

Jiang Wen got up directly, hooked his shoulders with Joe Hisaishi, "How is it? How is this sincerity?"

"Sbaraxi, Sbaraxi..." Hisaishi seemed to be a repeater now, and he also understood Jiang Wen's meaning, "Jiang Sang, please leave the soundtrack to me this time! That, Please tell me about the specific situation of this movie, please."

"No problem! Mr. Joe Hisaishi, I can't give you the script yet. After all, it hasn't been translated into Japanese, and you can't understand it. Let me tell you the general outline of the movie."

"Good! Thank you very much!"

"This movie is called "The Sun Also Rises". You must understand English, the-sun-also-rises."

"Oh I see!"

"The movie is about four short stories..."

Hisaishi let this person, according to RB, he is a gentle person.

But in Chinese terms, he is an honest man.

Jiang Wen is obviously not an honest person.

Even if Jiang Wen gave him the leading actor, Shen Fang couldn't speak against his conscience.

Besides, the male lead might be a fool.

In this way, Jiang Wen gave Shen Fang a kind of confrontation with Joe Hisaishi:
Isn't this bullying honest people? ! ……a feeling of.

Just after Jiang Wen finished explaining the outline of "The Sun Also Rises" to Hisaishi, Hisaishi looked towards Shen Fang.

Shen Fang was a little strange, because there was something special in the eyes of this music powerhouse.

Joe Hisaishi said very sincerely: "Chen Sang, I plan to hold a concert in China next year. Here, I sincerely invite Shen Sang to be my guest at that time, okay?"

As he spoke, he bowed directly.

Although this bow did not reach 90 degrees, it was just a ceremonial one, but the etiquette was really well done.

Shen Fang was at a loss for a while, "Mr. Hisaishi Joe, this, this..."

This opportunity is really good, to be able to share the stage with a famous musician like Joe Hisaishi is definitely the luxury of any musician.

But, what musical instrument is Shen Fang?
Suona is not understood abroad, but it is understood domestically!

Let’s say there was a suona in this concert, what would be the comments on the Internet?

Shen Fang blew Joe Hisaishi's funeral song?
The whole life of netizens may not stop there.

Just when Shen Fang was hesitating, Jiang Wen smiled and shook hands with Joe Hisaishi.

"Shen Fang is a bit shy, Mr. Joe Hisaishi, don't worry, Shen Fang will definitely be there when you have a concert! Even if he doesn't want to go, I'll tie him up, how about it?"

What he said, the translator found it interesting when he heard it, so he added a strong passion for the soul of the second in the translation.

"Si Guoyi! Haha...then please!" Joe Hisaishi was so happy that the scene of the concert seemed to have appeared in his mind.

He plays the piano in a black suit, and Shen Fang also plays the suona in a black suit.

It's really great.

It's just that Joe Hisaishi didn't expect that this picture also appeared in Shen Fang's mind, but he felt...

How so like a 'professional team'?

Next, Jiang Wen talked about "requests" with Joe Hisaishi again.

"I don't have too many requirements, but the soundtrack is good."

He had some trouble translating this sentence, but he translated it truthfully.

Hisaishi listened, "This is 'good', so how can it be 'good'?"

As for music, you Jiang Wen just said a good word, which is too vague.

Shen Fang thought, Jiang Wen, you may be good at making movies, but you really don't know much about music.

But I didn't want to, Jiang Wen came prepared.

He took out a disc from his bag on the spot, handed it to Joe Hisaishi, and said very formally: "It's better than this."

better than this?

what is this?
After Joe Hisaishi watched the disc clearly, his eyes widened, and the few hairs left had the urge to stand up.

"This, this is Mo Zha!"

Yes, Mozart is on the cover of that disc.

……

After bullying the honest man, Jiang Wen took Shen Fang out of the Overseas Chinese Building.

In the car, Jiang Wen couldn't help being happy.

"Look, a profession is a profession. Mr. Joe Hisaishi only talks about Mozart, not Mozart, hehe..."

Listening to his words, Shen Fang couldn't help it.

"Teacher Jiang Wen, what is your request? That is, Mr. Hisaishi Ryo has a good temper. If you change someone else, you can't lift the table?"

"Haha! Don't worry about it, he agreed, right? That's the end of it."

"But you are too much, people don't have much hair on their heads, and you still exert pressure like this?"

"Hey! A big man, still cares about his hair?... Oh, wait a minute, why are you talking for outsiders?"

Jiang Wen seemed to be able to tell that Shen Fang was not on his side.

"I'm not speaking for outsiders. I'm speaking for reason. How can someone make a song that surpasses Mozart?"

Shen Fang is confident.

Jiang Wen also thought that he was a little bit wrong, "I just put some pressure on him, by the way, you are quite strange."

strange?
Shen Fang didn't think he was strange even now, so he asked, "You still say that I speak for outsiders?"

Jiang Wen laughed loudly, "It's not this, I mean, why don't you ask about that?"

"Which matter?" Shen Fang was still a little confused.

Jiang Wen simply stepped on the brakes, parked the car on the side of the road, and looked at Shen Fang with a pair of playful eyes, "Why don't you ask me about the male protagonist?"

Male protagonist?
Shen Fang's eyes narrowed, "Didn't you say this casually to Mr. Hisaishi Rang?"

As soon as he said this, Jiang Wen burst out laughing!
It seems that parking is the right choice.

Shen Fang felt more and more unbelievable, but he was still very cautious.

Jiang Wen almost smiled, and looked at Shen Fang very seriously, "I came back to the Chinese drama this time to choose an actor. For the movie "The Sun Also Rises", I have to find a young man. Call him Captain first, I think you are quite suitable."

quite suitable?
Shen Fang was dumbfounded, he really couldn't believe what he heard in his ears.

Can I really play the leading role?
Moreover, is it still the male lead of the great director Jiang Wen?

Although many people can't understand the movie "The Sun Also Rises", well, Shen Fang also admits that he can't understand this movie himself.

But this is definitely a classic movie. For Shen Fang, this movie is too big!

It's really not that Shen Fang belittled himself, but that he knows the film and television industry too well.

Shen Fang can responsibly say that the special actors of Hengdian can eat enough, mainly relying on those bad movies!
There are few good films and many bad ones, and, in fact, the audience does not know how many films we make in a year, most of them never have the chance to broadcast.

But I have to say something for my colleagues, most of us are very serious when we shoot.You know, a special actor's play is usually only a few minutes, and if you can pass it one by one, then you will make money for the day.

Whether a film is good or bad is not something that can be decided by shooting.

Now, I finally have the opportunity to play the leading role in a classic movie.

Shen Fang was very excited.

How can Jiang Wen not see it?

"Excited?"

"Isn't it? Is it embarrassing?"

Shen Fang's resentment this time was purely a conditioned reflex.

Jiang Wen didn't care, "Okay! Don't be ashamed! It's normal to be excited when I'm filming Jiang Wen's scene."

Shen Fang couldn't help it anymore, "Teacher Jiang Wen, don't take yourself to praise yourself like this!"

Jiang Wen laughed loudly, "If there are no accidents, then you will be the leading actor."

Hearing these words, Shen Fang felt indescribably happy.

However, he still chose to hold back, and Shen Fang thought of an important question.

"Teacher Jiang Wen, I would like to ask what the movie "The Sun Also Rises" is about?"

Shen Fang really couldn't understand this movie before, but now he is going to be the leading actor, and the director is right in front of him.

Of course you have to ask.

But Jiang Wen smiled.

"The Sun Also Rises is a Brechtian film."
