1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 9 The second audition, confirmed to participate in Jiang Wen's new film!

10 pm.

After eating and drinking enough, Jiang Xiaofeng and Xiao Li took the bus back to the courtyard, and then went back to their residences.

The room Jiang Xiaofeng lives in is quite big, about 30 square meters. Of course, only 15 square meters can be used. The roof of the other 15 square meters is full of holes, the largest diameter is half a meter long.

Therefore, on a clear night, when Jiang Xiaofeng raised his head, he could always see the stars in the sky.

When it rains, as Guo Degang said, light rain outside, moderate rain in the house; moderate rain outside, heavy rain in the house; heavy rain outside, it is time to go out to hide from the rain.

When it starts to snow in Yanjing, this house will definitely not be able to live anymore. Therefore, it is only a matter of time before Jiang Xiaofeng leaves here.

Jiang Xiaofeng lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, thinking in his heart which song he should choose for his next song.

Moreover, Huang Xiaomao had already told Jiang Xiaofeng that if he wanted to make an album called "Campus Folk Songs", Jiang Xiaofeng could only choose a folk song from the folk songs he had heard.

In the memory of Jiang Xiaofeng's previous life, he has heard many folk songs, including "Miss Dong", "Nanshan South", "Southern Girl", and "Ideal Thirty", there are at least twenty or thirty songs.

Of course, in Jiang Xiaofeng's mind, the ceiling of folk songs in the mainland is definitely "You at the Same Table" written by Gao Xiaosong and sung by Lao Lang, because it is a classic folk song popular all over the country.

There are other good works of folk songs, but most of them are minority folk songs, and it is difficult to really go out of the circle like "You at the Same Table" and reach the level of household name.

On the other hand, Jiang Xiaofeng was not sure whether "You at the Same Table" had been created, and he did not dare to plagiarize this song rashly.

However, among so many folk songs, it is not an easy task to choose a song that can be compared with the song "You at the Same Table".

Just when Jiang Xiaofeng was worrying about what song he was going to write next, he suddenly received a notice from the crew of "Sunny Day" asking him to report to the crew.

When Jiang Xiaofeng arrived on the set, there wasn't even a ghost, let alone a person.

At noon, everyone went to eat.

Jiang Xiaofeng was bored and the sun was very bright, so he felt drowsy after a while.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a sound of kicking slippers approaching from far away.

As soon as Jiang Xiaofeng opened his eyes, Jiang Wen appeared in front of him.

Short sleeves, big pants, slippers, still chewing on the unswallowed meal.

Compared with the bald head last time, Jiang Xiaofeng's hair has grown out, with short and refreshing hair. He looks chic and at ease, but Jiang Wen still calls him "monk" one by one.

Jiang Wen suddenly remembered something and asked, "Monk, do you have abdominal muscles?"

Jiang Xiaofeng asked suspiciously: "Yes, director, what's the matter?"

Jiang Wen said without doubt: "Take off your clothes, let me see!"

Hearing Jiang Wen's words, Jiang Xiaofeng suddenly felt his chrysanthemum tighten, but he just hesitated for a moment, then obediently took off his black short sleeves.

Jiang Wen couldn't help but his eyes brightened, and he smiled and praised: "Hey, you really have abs, and you still have six-pack abs! It seems that you have been practicing a lot!"

Jiang Xiaofeng has always been very confident about his figure. His figure is the type that looks thin when dressed, and fleshy when undressed. The average girl can't stand it at all. Only sisters or aunts can bear it.

In front of Jiang Xiaofeng's perfect six-pack abs, a "rough man" like Jiang Wen couldn't restrain himself anymore, and reached out to touch his abs.

Jiang Wen couldn't help admiring: "Oh, I'm going, it's very sexy! Very sexy!"

Very sexy, these three words are enough to describe Jiang Wen's admiration for Jiang Xiaofeng.

However, being molested by a big man like this, Jiang Xiaofeng felt very awkward, it felt very strange, and goose bumps popped up.

Logically speaking, an old man like Jiang Wen is full of hormones all over his body, he should be a proper pure man, and he shouldn't be as good as Long Yang.

Female writer Ye San also once described that Jiang Wen is a man with excess hormones all his life, and she can't even imagine that the latter is not acting as a straight man, because Jiang Wen looks so majestic that there is nowhere to castrate him.

Jiang Wen was very satisfied with Jiang Xiaofeng's figure, and then asked, "Have you ever fought?"

Jiang Xiaofeng didn't hide anything, and told the truth: "I did!"

Jiang Wen nodded and said: "Come on, it's you, you stay!"

Jiang Wen has already decided to let Jiang Xiaofeng play the role of a child king named Liu Yiku in the movie "Sunny Day", he can be regarded as the second male number in the movie.

Jiang Xiaofeng doesn't know how to act, it's fine, Jiang Wen likes raw melon eggs the most, but for the role of Liu Yiku, he must be able to fight.

From Jiang Wen's point of view, Jiang Xiaofeng was tall, with a fierce face, not only practiced martial arts, but also fought, so it was perfect for him to play Liu Yiku.

He was able to play the leading role in the first movie, and he played "Sunny Day", a classic that can go down in history, what else could Jiang Xiaofeng be dissatisfied with.

The only thing Jiang Xiaofeng wanted to know now was how much he was paid for acting in this movie, so he asked Jiang Wen directly: "Director, may I ask, how much is my salary?"

Jiang Wen didn't beat around the bush, and told Jiang Xiaofeng directly: "Monk, if you are willing to accept this movie, I will pay you 5000 yuan."

Jiang Xiaofeng felt that the "Drum Tower" that he spent so much time on was only sold for 1000 yuan. Now that he is acting in a play, he is still the second male lead, and it only costs 5000 yuan, which is quite a bargain.

You know, in 1992, the average annual salary of employees in urban units across the country was only 2711 yuan. Jiang Xiaofeng could get 5000 yuan in salary for a film, which was already more than most ordinary employees in units.

After finding this place, Jiang Xiaofeng was obviously a little moved, and then asked: "How long will this movie be filmed?"

Jiang Wen thought for a while and said, "Under normal circumstances, it should be about 3 months."

Jiang Xiaofeng thought to himself, if it takes three months to shoot a movie, the average price per month will be about 1700 yuan. He has no reason to refuse such a good deal.

"Okay, I'll shoot!"

Jiang Wen was not surprised by Jiang Xiaofeng's decision, and handed the script of "Sunny Day" to Jiang Xiaofeng, saying, "Go back and have a good look!"

Jiang Xiaofeng then asked: "Director, when will we start shooting this movie?"

This really stopped Jiang Wen, because Jiang Wen didn't know when the filming would start, so he could only tell Jiang Xiaofeng: "We have to wait a little longer, it should be soon, and we will notify you when the time comes !"

"Okay, then I'm going back!"

After returning to the courtyard, Jiang Xiaofeng stopped practicing the piano, and locked himself in the room, watching the script of "Sunny Day".

It is worth mentioning that the script of the movie "Sunny Day" is adapted from Wang Shuo's novel "Fierce Animals", and the screenwriter is Jiang Wen.

Jiang Wen didn't even want to be a screenwriter at first. At that time, he just finished filming "Ben Ming Year" and said to Liu Xiaoqing: "I want to go to the United States to study directing."

Liu Xiaoqing also told him frankly: "Directors are not learned, they are made. You should be a director as soon as possible. When you are passionate, it is easy to come out with works."

Xie Fei, Tian Zhuang and Zhang Yimou all encouraged him, and Jiang Wen began to look for good novels everywhere. He read Chi Li's "You Are a River" and Su Tong's "Red Pink" successively, but he didn't get the copyright.

Wang Shuo gave "Fierce Animals" to Jiang Wen at the end of 1991. He didn't care much, as if he was talking about something else, and passed it to Jiang Wen. He said: "That's it, you can take it back and read it."

Jiang Wen also took it indifferently, and continued to talk about other matters with Wang Shuo. It was already late at home, about one o'clock in the morning.

That night, in a building in Xibahe, North Third Ring Road East Road, Jiang Wenlin always wanted to watch something before going to bed, so he picked up his "Fierce Animals" given by Wang Shuo and finished it in one sitting, so excited that he almost didn't sleep. Pictures, sounds and even smells flooded into his mind one after another.

At that time, Jiang Wen felt that it should be made into a movie, so he asked himself: "Why didn't Wang Shuo just say it straight? If you said you just use this to make a movie?"

In fact, Wang Shuo regarded "Ferocious Animals" as a bottom-line job at the time, and he was unwilling to allow it easily.

Wang Shuo saw Jiang Wen's talent and his background in the compound, so he handed "Ferocious Animals" to Jiang Wen.

At first Jiang Wen wanted Wang Shuo to change it into a movie script, but Wang Shuo refused to do it.

At that time, he was already sick of writing scripts, which greatly hurt his creative desire: "I was especially afraid of writing scripts for directors who pursued, and the painful experience was unbearable."

After a while, Wang Shuo simply said to him: "It is said that a virtuous person does not avoid relatives, and I don't recommend others. I recommend you. It is best for you to write this thing yourself and grow it from your own heart."

In May 1992, in the 5-square-meter hut on the Xiba River, Jiang Wen listened to "Country Knight" and turned his thoughts back to the 6s. He was completely isolated from the world, except for eating, sleeping, and writing scripts.

One and a half months later, the 6-word "Fresh Animals" was written into a first draft of 7 words, and the second draft was written to 9 words.

Wang Shuo took a look at the script and couldn't help admiring: "It's a pity that I have been around for so long, and sometimes I really cheat the world."

This is the famous monologue in the history of Huaguo Film: "At that time, it was always summer, and the sun was always free to accompany us. The sun was plentiful, but it was too bright, making our eyes dark..."
