Chapter 303 The Last Movie

Now Lu Heng's filming is basically just for fun. After all, he is considered to be the richest man in the mainland. At this level, probably only Boss Ma can enjoy it.

Besides, "A World Without Thieves" is very familiar to Lu Heng. The character's personality, plot, and character design are all very familiar to him even if he doesn't play Yemeni Erqing.

After a month of leisurely filming, the film was completed.

At the closing banquet, because Lu Heng was present, the bosses of several producers came, including Han Ping.

Lu Heng naturally sat in the first place with Han Ping, and the big and small kings could only accompany them below.

If Feng Xiaogang wasn't the director, he wouldn't even be able to sit at this table, but he would just sit at the bottom.

Every round had to be toasted, so after a few rounds, Feng Xiaogang quickly became drunk. Finally, Han Ping said: "It's almost done, let's have some food."

Feng Xiaogang was relieved, but he still raised his glass and said:

"Thank you Mr. Han for your quality, but I still want to toast Mr. Lu at the end. Thank you. Really, special thanks to Mr. Lu. Not only for starring and investing, but also for making many corrections to the plot, making it more reasonable and smoother. It’s... it’s been a lot of help, thank you, it’s all in the wine, thank you Mr. Lu.”

After saying that, he raised his neck and drank it all in one gulp.

Even though he swallowed this mouthful, it still made his throat roll. He reluctantly suppressed it and bowed to Lu Heng again.

"You're welcome." Lu Heng smiled without showing off, and drank all the wine in the glass. This amount of wine was just drizzle to him.

After the filming, Lu Heng gave himself another half-month's leave.

This time, he took Li Xiaoran and Cheng Hao directly to travel to Europe.

Traveling with beauties will naturally bring flowers everywhere, and it doesn't matter whether they are willing or not. Again, at Lu Heng's current level, many things are no longer a matter of whether they are willing, but whether they can go.

They would rather share than be left behind.

Half a month later, Lu Heng got a call from Zhang Yimou - but he didn't come back immediately. Instead, Lao Mouzi asked Lu Heng when he would be back. Lu Heng said that in three days, so Lao Mouzi waited for three days. sky.

Lao Mouzi looking for him was naturally a matter of "Ambush from Flying Daggers".

Lu Heng has decided that after filming this film, he will only film the sequel to "Pirates of the Caribbean". Otherwise, he will not take any more roles.

He has an advantage over Depp, that is, Depp was already 39 years old when he played "Pirates 14", while playing Pirates 36 to [-] spanned [-] years. If he still follows this rhythm, Lu Heng will even shoot the fifth movie. At that time, he was only [-] or seven years old.

Depp was already 53 years old when he filmed the fifth film. It would be good if he could barely film six films in the future.

But Lu Heng is different, he can make this series last longer.

At that time, he wanted money, skills, and skills. He also had the support of China, a country that never lacked for fantastic ideas, and he was not worried about being randomly interfered with and causing problems in the plot, so the probability of being thrown into the street was very low.

The reason for this decision was that Lu Heng felt that his private life would be magnified in the future, so he might as well start living in seclusion behind the scenes and live a leisurely life of traveling around the mountains and rivers while the Internet was still there. What?
After returning, Lu Heng went to find Zhang Yimou.

He had promised him before, and Lu Heng also participated in the investment. Since it was the last film, Lu Heng would naturally not change his mind.

As for investment, although Zhang Weiping's new picture was originally to cooperate with Zhang Yimou and outsiders could not get involved, it was someone else, and he still wanted Lu Heng.

As soon as Lu Heng had a rule, the leading actor had to invest, otherwise there would be no negotiation, so if he wanted to hire Lu Heng to star, he had to give in.Secondly, with Lu Heng and without Lu Heng, there will definitely be a huge gap in the box office.

Although Lao Mouzi is also a box office guarantee and will basically not lose money. The movies they invested in alone in the new picture earn 5000 million, and the movies with Lu Heng earn hundreds of millions. Obviously the latter is more cost-effective.Zhang Weiping is a businessman, so he can still settle accounts. What's more, Lu Heng's current status, international influence and relationship with Hollywood are what he wants to curry favor with.

When we met at the place, Lu Heng put the script on the table.

Two copies, one of which is a photocopy.

Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping looked at each other, picked it up in surprise, and after flipping through a few pages, their eyes widened.

Because Lu Heng mentioned a lot of changes, including casting.

Even though "House of Flying Daggers" is a "blockbuster" directed by Lao Mouzi, it still has many problems. Not to mention the plot, just casting is one aspect.

For example, in the script, Song Dandan was nominated to play the role of the Madam.

Of course, Lao Mouzi was not looking for her at the beginning. He was interested in Anita Mui and even signed a contract. But unfortunately... it wasn't long before she was diagnosed with terminal cancer and had no choice but to give up.

But after a round of selection, Song Dandan was finally chosen. Lu Heng, including the audience at that time, were a little stunned: Why was it her?

It's not that her acting skills are not good, but she is very good. Whether it is a drama or a sketch, it is recognized that it is difficult to act, but she is very good at it. This is her skill. However, the success of the sketch is also the failure of the sketch. The audience has a deep-rooted impression. Seeing "Wei Shufen" ", "Baiyun" appeared in ancient times and became a bustard, which felt weird and drama was inevitable.

This is similar to what the actor circle says: "Actors need to maintain a sense of mystery" and "try to appear in variety shows as little as possible" - the more familiar the audience is with you, the more solid their impression will be of you. When they see a character beyond their impression, they will subconsciously Make a play.

This is also one of the reasons why many comedians will hit the street in movies other than comedy, unless the actor has a major change in image design and temperament.

Lu Heng also wrote his own modification plan for many loopholes and unreasonable aspects in the plot.

In fact, Lu Heng couldn't understand why Wang Bin, the screenwriter who adapted the movie "Alive", Li Feng, the screenwriter of "Hero", and Zhang Yimou got together and got dizzy on "House of Flying Daggers". .

What left the audience most speechless at the time was the scene where the little girl played by Zhang Ziyi fell into the arms of Jin Captou, dying, opening her eyes, dying again, opening her eyes again... the scene was repeated four times.

After it was released at the time, this clip immediately became a meme, and it was often retold and ridiculed many years later.

Other than that, there was no foreshadowing for Jin Captou and the little girl to fall in love.

Forget it, the most outrageous thing is that during the torture to extract a confession, Capt. Liu was cruel to the little girl at first, and the next second he started to fall in love with her, but there was still a lack of foreshadowing.

This is a failure in terms of character and plot, and in terms of structure, it is almost a matter of what the audience wants to see...rare, and what the audience does not want to see...there are still some.

For example, at the beginning of the film, a few lines of words appeared on the screen, even if it briefly explained the time and place of the story, but about the main background of the film, the entanglement between Feidaomen and the government was briefly mentioned.

In normal thinking, the audience imagined that Feidaomen should have had a life-or-death battle with the government, but before they could figure out what was going on, the scene switched to a scene of Capt. Liu and Capt. Jin drinking and chatting together, which made People feel inexplicable.

Zhang Yimou was not afraid of Lu Heng. After reading it, he frowned for a long time and then expressed his opinion. He politely said that there were too many changes and explained the reason to Lu Heng.

Lu Heng became impatient with what he said, so he stood up and said, "If you can change it, then shoot it. If you can't, forget it."

　thanks for your support.Let me explain. In the past, because of driving, many cars that were still weak were repeatedly blocked and downgraded, and all the data fell. It was not until later that I wrote S, which hit me head-on, and there was no recommendation later. I knew it at that time. , this book has no future, but because of everyone’s support, I continue to write it. Up to now, as far as entertainment literature is concerned, the career layout, wealth, and status have all reached the peak of China, and there is not much that can be written. , so I am also preparing to wrap up and prepare a new book, but the follow-up will still be completed, so don’t worry.
