Acting school started in 1998

Chapter 273
"You guys are finally willing to come back!"

"Ms. Zhang, uh, Director Zhang, I'm really sorry, but that Director Zhang is too lazy. As soon as I was finished, I rushed over here without any delay."

In mid-November, the crew of "Shooting the Condor" moved to Xinchang temporarily.In the words of Zhang Dahuzi, Xinchang is his blessed land. "Swordsman" was filmed in Xinchang very smoothly, so not only "The Condor Shooting" will be filmed in Xinchang this time, but "The Legend of Condor Heroes" which will start next year will also be filmed in Xinchang. Will start shooting here.

After Li Tang and Li Lianlian finished filming the fight scene, they spent another two days filling up some bits and pieces of scenes, and then the scene was completed.When it's over, it's Wuming and King Qin played by Li Lianlian. Chen Daoming, who plays King Qin, has already come to the crew.He was not idle, every time when Li Tang and Li Lian were filming together, he would take the initiative to come to the scene to watch.

Li Tang had contact with this industry respected "Mr. Chen" several times at the Huabiao Awards and the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Festival in the past. Maybe it was influenced by his role as Emperor Kangxi, or maybe he entered the play ahead of time. I always feel that This Mr. Chen is a bit overbearing.

Of course, because the two have no rivalry, they don't have much interaction at ordinary times, they just maintain superficial politeness.This is also the normal state of interpersonal communication in the circle.

There are too many monks in the circle, and there are often scenes of open and secret fighting for resources. Unless everyone's interests are tied to each other, it is difficult to become friends.

Li Tang's filming of "Hero" this time not only won the approval of director Zhang Yimou, but also was fortunate to be appreciated by Li Lianlian. Before leaving the group, the two of them specially invited him to a meal and left their contact information.

Jinhua and Xinchang are not far apart, and Li Tang rushed over the next day after the shooting.

I haven't seen him for more than a month, and Zhang's beard looks very high-spirited.The crew of "Shooting the Condors" with him will never lack news. During the filming of "Heroes", Li Tang often saw news about "Shooting the Condors" on the Internet.

For example, the crew of "Shooting the Condors" invited the famous Hong Kong stylist Ye Jintian to join.You must know that Ye Jintian just won the Oscar for Best Art Direction for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" at the beginning of the year. This joining will undoubtedly improve the quality of "The Condor Shooting" a lot.

What else is Li Yapeng playing Guo Jing, regardless of the role, and frankly everyone has become stupid;

Of course, the biggest news was that the chief director Wang Rui's withdrawal was finally exposed by the media.At the beginning, the producer and crew were secretive, saying that the crew would 100% not dismiss Wang Rui, and then saying that Wang Rui had returned to the capital to see the new costume designed by Ye Jintian.

But Wang Rui has the character of a typical stinky and tough intellectual, and he spends most of his time teaching in the film academy, so he doesn't know much about the twists and turns in the industry. The production team of "Shooting the Condors" has a conflict of ideas and cannot get along with the so-called martial arts directors and behind-the-scenes creators in Hong Kong. He said that he has resigned from the post of chief director and brought his own team to withdraw from the production of "Shooting the Condors".

This undoubtedly exposed the lies of the producer and the crew to whitewash the peace.Zhang Dabeard, who has always been vengeful, can't stand this. In an exclusive interview, he dismissed Wang Rui as worthless. On the one hand, he said that he has character flaws and can't get along with anyone. The actors and other behind-the-scenes creators have great opinions on him; On the other hand, he questioned Wang Rui's professional ability, saying that he was good at filming promiscuous dramas, but "Shooting the Condors" was not good. The two are like ordinary ships and aircraft carriers. .

Of course, Ju Jueliang, who was invited temporarily, was still unconvincing in terms of ability and qualifications, so the producer Zhang Dabeard was actually the chief director, and everyone called him "Director Zhang".

In fact, Zhang Dahuzi has always had a dream of being a director, and he especially likes the title Zhang Dao.

In fact, the reason why he is full of confidence this time is that Zhejiang Satellite TV has just finished rebroadcasting "Swordsman", which is completely different from the scolding when "Swordsman" premiered at the beginning of the year. .

When Li Tang came to the crew, he first asked Zhang Dao to report.Lao Zhang's attitude towards Li Tang is still very affectionate.In his words, Li Tang is one of his own.Especially this time, Li Tang was recognized by director Zhang Yimou's insight, which made him very face-saving. When "Shooting the Condors" is broadcast in the future, this is also a material worthy of hype.

At present, the filming of "The Condor Shooting" crew in Xinchang is going well, the only bad news is that the heroine Zhou Xun is ill and is recuperating at the People's Hospital in Xinchang.

As an old friend, Li Tang would visit him both emotionally and rationally.

"Li Tang, are you here to see Zhou Xun?"

"Yes, I just arrived at the set, and I heard that she is ill, so come and have a look."

"I heard that you are making a new movie directed by Zhang Yimou, can you tell us about it?"

"I'm sorry, Director Zhang's new movie is still in a state of secrecy, so don't embarrass me, I have signed a non-disclosure agreement."

The crew of "Shooting the Condors" is never short of reporters, and there are even reporters waiting at the entrance of the hospital. As soon as Li Tang got out of the car, he was surrounded by two reporters.

Fortunately, the temporary assistant arranged for him by the crew this time is a young man with a strong Kong Wu.

"Okay, okay, please step aside, Mr. Li is here to visit, I'm sorry!"

Under the cover of the young man, Li Tang got rid of the entanglement of the reporters and entered the gate of the inpatient department.

Li Tang came to the special needs ward on the top floor, knocked on the door, and Zhou Xun's assistant came out to open the door.

"Brother Li, you are here!"

"Oh, how is Miss Xiaoxun?"

Before the little assistant could answer, he heard Zhou Xun's hoarse voice: "Li Tang is here!"

Sounds good.

"It's me, how are you?"

Li Tang walked in and saw Zhou Xun lying on the hospital bed with a haggard face, still drenched in water.But what surprised him was that Li Yapen was there, and this guy was sitting by the hospital bed and peeling fruit.

Seeing him walk in, Li Yapeng quickly stood up and said, "Hey, Li Tang!"

"Brother Duck Shed!"

Seeing that he was still holding fruit and a knife in his hand, Li Tang could only nod to him.

"When did you arrive?"

"Just arrived, I didn't hear that you were sick, so I came to have a look."

"I'm fine, I just have a cold and a dry cough."

With that said, Zhou Xun coughed twice again.

"Eat some pears."

Hearing the movement, Li Yapeng hurriedly cut the peeled pears into small pieces, and fed them to Zhou Xun's mouth with a toothpick.

Li Tang was inevitably a little embarrassed seeing this scene.

Zhou Xun frowned and shook his head, "I don't want to eat."

As he spoke, he smiled apologetically at Li Tang, and greeted him, "Li Tang, don't stand still, please sit down."

He also ordered his assistant to make tea.

"Don't be too busy, I don't worry if you are fine."

Li Tang didn't intend to stay for a long time, so he took the flowers and fruit baskets carried by the temporary assistant and put them beside the hospital bed.

"Oh, don't rush away, I still have something to tell you." Zhou Xun said hurriedly.

"Uh, what's the matter?"

Zhou Xun didn't speak, but turned to look at Li Yapeng.

Seeing this scene, Li Tang didn't feel very good. Isn't it obvious that he wants to drive people away?
As a result, Li Yapeng not only picked up Lingzi very well, but also stood up very kindly and said: "Then you talk, I'll go first. Li Tang, sit down for a while."

"I'm sorry, Brother Yapeng!" Li Tang felt a little bit sorry.

Li Yapeng waved his hands and looked for the steps with a smile: "It's okay, I have been here for a while. There is still a show in the afternoon. If you don't go back, I guess Director Zhang will curse again."

Before leaving, he did not forget to say softly to Zhou Xun: "Xiao Xun, if you want to eat something tonight, I will bring it to you."

"No need, I have no appetite." Zhou Xun said impatiently.

Li Yapeng was not angry at all, and said like coaxing a child: "Dinner must be eaten. Then, when you think about it, call me."

After speaking, he nodded to Li Tang and said, "Then I'll go first."

"Goodbye, Brother Duck Peng."

Li Yapeng waved his sleeves and walked away gently without taking a cloud.

As soon as the person left, Li Tang relaxed a lot.The main reason is that he is not familiar with Li Yapeng, and this person seems to be thoughtful in every aspect, but you just can't like it, it's a strange feeling.

"Is it not the time for me to come today?"

Facing Zhou Xun, Li Tang seemed more casual, jokingly said with a smile.

Zhou Xun gave him a blank look: "Don't talk nonsense."

"Okay, let's not talk, what's the matter with you?"

"fine!"

"It's okay, you..."

Li Tang was stunned for a moment, but he immediately came to his senses, pointed to the chair where Li Yapeng was sitting just now, and said, "Are you using me as a shield?"

"Yes, can't it?" Zhou Xun shook his head and said.

"No, how are you two doing now?"

Before Li Tang listened to people's gossip, it was the two of them who fell in love, but seeing this scene now, he was inevitably a little surprised.

"He's pretty nice, but..."

Zhou Xun showed confusion, hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It seems that I won't be able to find the feeling for a while."

That's right, an emotional woman like her always pursues feelings.

It's not easy for Li Tang to ask more about this kind of thing, and he doesn't want to be a male best friend or a bosom brother, so he changed the subject and said, "How is the filming going?"

He was not aimless. It was reported that reporters who had interviewed on the spot criticized Zhou Xun's Huang Rong for not being lively enough.

In fact, this so-called criticism is purely for journalists to attract attention.It is said that interlacing is like a mountain. Do those so-called reporters understand acting?
"Did you see the report too?"

Zhou Xun glanced at him, and said indifferently: "They just saw Weng Meiling's version of Huang Rong and got a preconceived impression. If I really follow this path, then I will be ungrateful. My Huang Rong should be ..."

As she said that, she raised her face and raised her eyebrows: "Brother Jing, hit him!"

Then he said: "Instead of..."

Then he squeezed his breath, imitating Hong Kong and Taiwan accent: "Brother Jing, go and beat him!"

"puff!"

Li Tang couldn't help laughing, he had also watched the 83 version of "Shooting the Condors".

What Zhou Xun said is right, in that age when entertainment life was poor, preconceived impressions were often particularly deep.But we really need to discuss the details. To be honest, the performances of those Hong Kong and Taiwan actors, even Huang Rihua and Weng Meiling, are superficial or modeled.

Among other things, the Weng Meiling version of Huang Rong that Zhou Xun just imitated is very lifelike, and the previous one is her understanding of Huang Rong's character.Comparing the two, the high and the low will be judged.

Still the same sentence, the audience is blindly following, and most of the time it is the media who lead the rhythm.Just like "Swordsman", everyone scolded it at the beginning, but now it has good reviews.Li Tang believes that in a few years, when he looks back at this version of "Swordsman", it might become a classic.

Of course, he does not expect that "Shooting the Condor" which is currently being filmed will become a classic in the future. After all, judging from the current shooting situation, it is far from the script and the behind-the-scenes team when filming "Swordsman" back then. up.

"Hey, what's the situation with you and Jiang Qinqin?" Zhou Xun asked abruptly.

"what's the situation?"

Li Tang's heart skipped a beat, somewhat guilty of guilt.But he didn't show it on his face, and pretended to be stupid.

Zhou Xun looked at him with a smile that wasn't a smile, and said, "You're not too involved in the drama, are you?"

Before Li Tang and Jiang Qinqin traveled together in Ningbo during the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival, the production crew was a bit rumored, and Zhou Xun knew that Jiang Qinqin didn't want to run with her at first, but she ran away after being fooled by Li Tang.Whenever she thinks about the relationship between the two, she inevitably feels a little uncomfortable.

"Don't be kidding, when will you see that I can't get out of the play."

Li Tang shook his head like a rattle, he was absolutely confident about this.Back then when I was filming "Suzhou River", I was so involved, and I didn't have the so-called deep involvement in the film.

In fact, to put it bluntly, this kind of thing is just an excuse for himself. From Li Tang's point of view, he always has to look at his face. If the heroine of "Suzhou Creek" is replaced by Jiang Qinqin, he might get too involved in the play .

……

Wozhou is one of the three scenic spots in Xinchang. Together with the Great Buddha Temple, it is the center of "Prajna Learning" in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which promotes the Sinicization of Buddhism.

According to rumors, there were [-] eminent monks and [-] famous scholars, including Zhi Dun, Zhu Qian, Xie Lingyun, and Wang Xizhi, gathered here at that time. It is a cultural resort comparable to Lanting.

The founder of the Tiantai Sect, Master "Wise Man", after paying homage to the Xinchang Buddha, put snails here to advocate vegetarianism, and it became one of the holy places of the "Taizong".

Li Bai, Du Fu, Meng Haoran and other great poets of the Tang Dynasty followed and set foot on the road of Tang poetry in eastern Zhejiang.

Bai Juyi said that "the mountains and rivers in the southeast are the head, Shan is the face, and Wozhou and Tianmu are the eyebrows".

Li Bai came here to cruise, looking at the majestic Tianmu Mountain in the distance, recalling Xie Lingyun who first broke through the mountain and broke the road, and when he was about to come again, he wrote the eternal masterpiece "Sleepwalking Tianmu and Singing Farewell".

In the south of Wozhou Mountain, there is a Zhenjun Hall, which is called Shizhenren Temple in Ming Dynasty, and was rebuilt in the 30th year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty.With more than [-] couplets in this hall, it is exquisitely constructed and magnificent. It is a temple building combining Buddhism and Taoism.

This Zhenjun Hall is dedicated to Zongze, the anti-golden hero of the Song Dynasty, and its patriotic significance can be compared with that of Yuemiao in Hangzhou.It's just that the reputation is not very prominent at this time, and not many people know about it. Li Tang only learned about it when he came here to film for "Swordsman" last time.

Now the crew filmed the scene where Wanyan Honglie and Yang Kang's father and son, who were chased and killed by Guo Jing, fled in embarrassment, and Yang Kang's father and son, and the scene where Mu Nianci broke up with Yang Kangen for this reason, was filmed here, which can be regarded as a tribute to the anti-golden hero Zongze.
