Acting school started in 1998

Chapter 56
After getting off the expressway, you have to pass through the HZ urban area.Today's Hangzhou is not the HZ urban area more than 20 years later, with narrow roads, chaotic traffic, and unavoidable speed reduction.

Naian held the steering wheel with one hand, slowly followed the car in front, and said casually, "Have you read the script?"

"Looked."

Li Tang not only read the script, but also the original novel.

It's just that the adaptation of this script is very strong, and it is not the same thing as the original.

Compared with Gu Long's novels, he still prefers Jin Yong's works, such as "Swordsman" and "The Deer and Ding Tale". Once you get started, you can't put it down.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether you read the script or not. The role he plays is a marginal character, and he can't play any works that connect the past and the future. At most, he just adds luster to the protagonist.

Perhaps feeling that Li Tang's tone was a bit perfunctory, Nai'an comforted him: "Don't worry now, just film in peace and stability, and wait until the work comes out, and when everyone sees your strength, then you will have a better chance."

Li Tang realized that Nai'an had misunderstood, and said with a smile: "Sister An, don't worry, I'm not in a hurry, I just feel that this role is not a challenge."

"Don't underestimate whether there are any challenges. Now is the time when you need to accumulate popularity. You can make soy sauce to make a familiar face, and you can still make money. Why not do it!"

Li Tang knew that Nai'an's words were meant to teach, so he restrained his smile and said seriously: "I see, Sister An."

Seeing his seriousness, Naian smiled and said, "That's all I'm going to say, as long as you know what's going on. As an actor, in the final analysis, you still rely on your acting skills. I'm not worried about you at all."

After finishing speaking, Naian naturally jumped away from the topic and said, "By the way, when will the "Shanghai Chronicle" you filmed be released?"

"The ninth of next month."

"It's only a few days away. I'll ask a few reporters to help you carry the sedan chair."

It was already the end of March, less than two weeks before April [-]th.

These days, the state-owned film production system still continues the planned economy model. When a new film is released, apart from printing a few movie posters, there is no publicity, and the box office statistics are very imperfect. Some big cities such as Shanghai, Beijing, and Guangzhou have just begun to implement the pilot reform of the theater chain system.

However, Nai'an's thinking is quite advanced. The so-called carrying the sedan chair is, to put it bluntly, hype and flattery.

Li Tang was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a while and said: "Then, if Sister An needs to spend money then, feel free to ask."

According to his thinking in his previous life, it would cost money to invite reporters to write soft articles, hype and praise.

But Naian shook his head and said, "Whatever the money, we are all friends. As long as your performance in the movie does not stretch your hips, everything is easy to talk about."

Well, journalists these days still have to save face, at least not to brag about it.

Then Naian laughed again: "I want to believe that your performance will definitely not be a problem, and you are famous, which is also a great thing for "Suzhou Creek"."

Speaking of "Suzhou River", Li Tang couldn't help asking: "Sister An, how is "Suzhou River" doing?"

Ever since Lou Ye took the initiative to contact him to introduce Cheng Er last time, the two of them have never been in touch again.As for letting Li Tang take the initiative to call Lou Ye, unless something happened, he would be embarrassed, and so would Lou Ye.

The two of them held their phones and had nothing to say, and Lou Ye was very polite, if you didn't hang up, he would definitely not hang up first, and he could carry it for an hour.

"All the materials to be shot have been shot, and the rest is to edit the film for post-production. It is estimated that it will be almost the same in the second half of the year." Naian said.

"Can it be screened?" Li Tang asked expectantly.

After all, Lou Ye's previous two films could only be screened at midnight.

"It should be possible."

When Naian said this, her face showed confusion. As an investor, she certainly hoped that the movie would be released normally, but when she thought of Lou Ye, she really didn't feel confident.

But she immediately said: "It's okay, there are several film festivals in Europe that you can participate in at the end of the year."

In fact, although Lou Ye's previous two films could not be screened normally in China, due to the small investment, he won awards abroad and sold several overseas copyrights.

This is why Naian dared to invest.

For example, the "Xiao Wu" by Jia Kechang, which won the award at the Berlin Film Festival last year, had an investment of only a few hundred thousand, but the overseas copyright was sold for several million. That is the real profit.

Of course, it would be even better if it can be released in China. In addition to having more box office revenue and more secure investment, it can also make the director famous in China and give actors more opportunities to be exposed.

When passing by Dongyang at noon, I stopped and had a simple lunch.Li Tang's eyes were smeared here, he had been to Hangzhou in his previous life.

20 years later, Hangzhou is very prosperous, with high-rise buildings everywhere.Unlike now, Zhijiang Road is still on the edge of the city, across the Qiantang River, the other side is even more barren.

Dongyang's fried noodles are really good, and there is also a dish of mung bean curd that he has never seen before.

"We're going straight to the set."

It took about [-] minutes to drive from Dongyang to Hengdian. Naian called Director Lu when he was about to arrive.

Director Lu is the director of Beijing Television Art Center, and his masterpiece is the famous "Desire".Naian has a deep relationship with the Beijing Television Art Center, and it was through Director Lu's relationship that Li Tang got the job.

The shooting scene of "Little Li Flying Knife".

"I don't like this person, so I can kill him!" Fan Xiaopang said domineeringly.

She sat side by side with Yu Feihong at the same table. Compared with Yu Feihong who had a calm face, she made a lot of small movements, shaking her head for a while, and braiding her hair for a while, which made Lu Xiaowei frown.

"stop!"

"Bingbing, don't move so much."

"I see, the director is sorry!"

Xiaopang had a very good attitude, he hurriedly raised his hands to apologize, and then apologized to the actor Jiao Enjun: "Brother Jun, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Jiao Enjun waved his hand generously, indicating that he didn't mind.

The two belonged to the same company, and Jiao Enjun was the number one male lead, so Fan Xiaopang got a supporting role, which to put it bluntly was a head-to-head.The little girl is young and her acting skills are young. As the company's big brother, Jiao Enjun naturally has to take care of the little sister, not to mention that the two are from Shandong.

Jiao Enjun was magnanimous, but Yu Feihong, who was sitting beside her, had a hint of sarcasm flashing across his face.As the second female lead in the play, she was dissatisfied with Fan Xiaopang who played her maidservant.

On the one hand, she was a teacher in the Acting Department of Nortel and looked down upon the acting skills of Fan Xiaopang, who was born in Ye Luzi. In other words, Fan Xiaopang was not acting at all.

But the most important point, and what made her most upset was that Fan Xiaopang was so beautiful!Although she didn't want to admit it, the fact was obvious that Fan Xiaopang's exquisite facial features were especially white, and the difference between the two standing together was obvious.

Yu Feihong felt that the only thing he could beat the opponent was probably the so-called temperament.

"Again!"

Lu Xiaowei didn't talk too much nonsense, and waved his hand to signal everyone to get ready.

At this time, a staff member came in and whispered something in Lu Xiaowei's ear. Lu Xiaowei hesitated for a moment, then got up, clapped his hands and said, "Well, everyone, take a break for 10 minutes."

After speaking, he walked out of the studio with the staff member.
