Full-time actor

Chapter 490 [55] Little girls nowadays are really precocious!

"Yilang, Dad will come to Hong Kong to see you in two days!"

In the waiting hall, Jiang Wen spoke to Jiang Yilang very humbly.

Jiang Yilang is a very quiet girl who doesn’t talk much, especially when facing Jiang Wen. She can only say “um” and “ah”, which basically does not exceed 5 words.

But in fact, Chen Yu had seen her and Liu Yifei having a lot of fun before Jiang Wen came. The two of them were now best friends. It had to be said that Liu Yifei's level of making friends was absolutely top-notch.

She actually knows some simple French!

Are you sure she wasn’t influenced by her father An Shaokang?
"Go back, I'll take care of her!"

"After all, I am his uncle..."

When Jiang Wen heard Chen Yu's words, she felt so uncomfortable. This guy was taking advantage of her daughter?

But then again, if not uncle, should I call him brother?
"That's what I wrote in the script!"

"Now call me to get used to it!"

Seeing Jiang Wen’s unhappy look, Chen Yu hurriedly said, Jiang Wen didn’t care, hugged Chen Yu and said: “Report to me at any time, if anyone bullies him, I will tear down the crew!”

"You don't trust me that much?"

"Besides, you've only been here for two days?"

Jiang Wen now really feels like her father is worried about his daughter being away.

"Well, I'll come the day after tomorrow with Zhou Yun. Don't tell anyone else!"

"Especially my ex-wife!"

Jiang Wen glanced at Sandrine who was walking into the ticket checking channel. Chen Yu didn't bother to care about his family's trivial matters and waved at him: "Okay, I'm going in!"

“The shoot went smoothly!”

"After filming this one, it's time to film mine, right?"

Jiang Wen was mumbling again, and Chen Yu immediately turned around: "We'll talk about it when the time comes. Isn't it just a half-month notice?"

You can make it up anyway.

Although he is the leading male role in "The Sun", he actually doesn't have many scenes. Because the script is divided into four parts, he only has more scenes in the first part, and he only appears occasionally in the rest of the scenes. In fact, Jiang Wen and he have almost the same number of scenes.

He just got the title of the leading male role.

Strictly speaking, Jiang Wen himself is the leading male role.

Because he is in all four parts, especially the second and fourth scenes, he is the absolute protagonist.

Watching Chen Yu walk in, Jiang Wen touched his beard, turned around and walked out of the airport wearing sunglasses.

These days, he has been tormented by the divorce, which has disrupted his filming schedule. He had originally planned to start filming in Yunnan next month, but the ban on his directing was lifted, so now it has to be postponed to June.

……

"Xiao Chen, you told Director Jiang, right?"

In the VIP waiting room of Capital Airport, Liu Xiaoli secretly asked Chen Yu.

"Yes, does Yilang's mother have any objections?"

Chen Yu looked at Sandrine who was sitting there alone, while Yilang was playing next to Liu Yifei, the two of them were like little sisters.

In fact, Liu Yifei doesn’t have many scenes in "Mission: Impossible - Spyder" and it can be filmed in one day, but in order to accompany Jiang Yilang, she came to Hong Kong in advance; in a few days she will fly to Paris to film "Taken"!
An Shaokang has already obtained the filming permit there. His father-in-law still has some real power there.

As for Tom Cruise, he encountered obstacles everywhere in "Mission Impossible 3". Several countries including Germany and France rejected his filming request. Now the new script has changed to three places, Italy, the United States and China; China in particular, which occupies a large part of the script.

The previous version of "Mission Impossible 3" was about 20 minutes long, and now Richard said that it will take up almost 50 minutes of plot, so Chen Yu is still full of expectations for this new script.

It is said that Tom Cruise is not very satisfied with the new script. Although he is highlighted, Chen Yu also has a lot of scenes, so he must be a little unhappy.

In the films this guy shot in his previous life, the protagonists were too unique. To put it bluntly, the protagonist's halo was too strong. He holds the exclusive copyright of "Mission Impossible" and of course he can do whatever he wants; but currently CAA, Paramount and even China Film are putting pressure on him.

Chen Yu didn't even need to discuss this himself, because after China Film invested in the film, the nature of the film changed a little, and they had to give Chinese actors some face.

This is not to say that China Film Corporation was behind the incident, but rather it just happened to be the right time.

China Film Corporation originally wanted to expand into the Chinese market, and Chen Yu has a role in it, so isn't that a timely help?
If it doesn't add Chen Yu's scenes, will it add Tom Cruise's?

With CAA fanning the flames behind the scenes, Tom Cruise must also take care of the three parties' face. After all, he has not yet reached the point where he has the final say like in later generations.

"No, I'm just asking!"

"Sandrine didn't want to see Director Jiang...but I've been comforting her these past few days!"

"As someone who has been through this, I understand the reason why they divorced!"

In fact, Chen Yu also knew it.

This was a mistake in their marriage. Jiang Wen didn't think much about the relationship. He fell in love with Sandrine at first sight because she was sexy, plump and charming. However, Sandrine was overwhelmed with love, so the two of them didn't think about anything and went straight to marriage after falling in love.

Facts have proved that love cannot be used to make a living and marriage is the grave of love.

Jiang Wen found out when he stepped in that his mother's marriage was different from love. It was the combination of two families, values, culture and personality...

"Then... thank you for your hard work, Auntie!"

"I thank you on behalf of Director Jiang!"

Chen Yu said this sincerely, but Liu Xiaoli looked at Chen Yu and said, "Xiao Chen, you can't learn from him. If you marry Xixi, you must live together. Do you understand?"

This speaks to the case of Chen Yu.

"That's for sure!"

Chen Yu assured her: "All my efforts now are for the stability of our marriage!"

"After I get married, I will basically just accompany Yifei. Maybe, I will move behind the scenes and see if I can be a director and let Yifei be my exclusive leading lady!"

Chen Yu had the same idea as Section Chief Jia.

After receiving all the honors as an actor, he is definitely heading towards becoming a director.

"Well, that's good!"

"I hope Auntie didn't make a mistake!"

Liu Xiaoli was really worried, Chen Yu was just like Jiang Wen. She didn't think that the two of them would be living apart after marriage, but Chen Yu was just like Jiang Wen, he never stopped filming a movie, completely neglected his family, and even seemed to work harder than Jiang Wen; although Sandrine had bigger problems in this marriage, Liu Xiaoli thought.

She shouldn't have married a Chinese man, or she should have stayed in the capital. Now that she has decided to return to Paris, why do they have to torture each other like this?
I hope time can dilute her hatred for Jiang Wen.

"Yilang!"

Chen Yu chatted with Liu Xiaoli for a while, then walked to Liu Yifei's side.

Jiang Yilang is different from the open-minded mixed-race girl that Chen Yu had seen in his previous life. She is now very quiet, with more of an oriental face and fair skin. However, she inherited her mother's good looks and has beautiful chestnut shoulder-length hair. When she shakes her head, her hair will fly out, making her look very cool.

The delicate face is framed by a pair of deep blue eyes, and the same is true for Sandrine.

Hearing Chen Yu calling her name, Jiang Yilang raised her head.

In fact, she was still very curious about Chen Yu. Although the two of them didn't communicate much along the way, Liu Yifei told her that he was her boyfriend.

As an 11-year-old girl, whose father is often not around, and who is experiencing the cultural shock of both China and the West, she appears to be very precocious. She understands everything about love and marriage.

With a height of less than 1.5 meters, she makes people want to protect her, and is very suitable for the role of the female lead Chen Yu.

"Hello there!"

Jiang Yilang was polite and waved to Chen Yu.

"We can chat about anything, movies, or something else!"

Chen Yu tried his best to show a friendly smile, and Jiang Yilang nodded: "Sure, what do you want to ask?"

"I sent you the script. Have you read it? If you don't understand it, you can ask me!"

"Well, mom told me the general idea, and I think it's great. You want to save me, right?"

Jiang Yilang smiled, and Chen Yu hummed, "Yes, that's right. In the play, your mother was killed by bad guys, and you were abducted by human traffickers. I am your only relative, and I came to save you. But these are all fake, so don't take them to heart. You don't need to understand them too deeply!"

"I wonder if you understand what I mean?"

"I understand. Just treat it as a story. I've read a lot of novels and watched movies. I've also watched the ones my dad made!"

"'The Devils'?"

"Well, but I like that movie 'Sunny Days'!"

This is easy to handle.

As expected of Lao Jiang’s daughter, she is quite mature and has good understanding ability.

It takes a bit of courage for an 11-year-old girl to watch this kind of movie, and from the way Jiang Yilang spoke, Chen Yu knew that he was a relatively smart child.

"So you actually like movies, right?"

"You just don't want to make a movie with your dad?"

"Ok!"

Jiang Yilang said softly, and Chen Yu could understand the girl's sensitivity at this time; she liked movies, but didn't want to film with Jiang Wen, which was also normal. She probably wanted to prove herself, so she agreed to Chen Yu.

How could a director's child not like movies?

This was my father's enlightenment.

Many children, even if they did not have the same career as their parents, admired their parents when they were young.

Otherwise, why did Jiang Yilang become a photographer in his previous life?

In the end, like Jiang Wen, he embarked on the path of making movies.

Teaching by words and deeds, even if you don’t teach anything, the subtle influence in childhood will have a lifelong impact on your children.

"Then let me tell you how to make this movie!"

Seeing Jiang Yilang's interest, Chen Yu immediately said, "You just need to remember the story I just told you. It's just like a novel. This is just a background. The key point is the enhancement of the family relationship between the character you play and the character I play!"

"Can you understand?"

"I understand. The relationship between Leon and Matilda in Léon: The Professional!"

Jiang Yilang raised her head and looked at Chen Yu with her blue eyes. Liu Yifei beside her couldn't help but said, "Don't underestimate Yilang. She has seen a lot of movies!"

Especially "Léon: The Professional", which is one of the most famous movies in France. And it is about a little girl. Jiang Yilang has actually watched it many times.

After being stunned for a moment, Chen Yu smiled bitterly and said, "In fact, the little girl I designed is also different from Matilda!"

"The East places more emphasis on family affection. Leon and Matilda are more of a brother-sister relationship. I don't really like this setting!"

"why?"

Jiang Yilang suddenly asked: "Actually, after listening to your story, I feel that little girls will definitely fall in love with uncles!"

My wife is warning me!
Chen Yu had already seen the puzzled look in Liu Yifei's eyes, and hurriedly explained: "It's different. My script is set up so that the little girl and the protagonist unconsciously develop a family relationship, a feeling like an older brother towards his younger sister!"

"It's not feelings!"

"It's like when a little girl fell into the water, I jumped in to save her without hesitation. This is very common in China!"

"Oh!"

Jiang Yilang didn't quite understand that the culture she was exposed to was more from the Western level.

"Just treat me as your big brother, or Sister Yifei's boyfriend!"

"You have a very good relationship with Yifei and treat her as an older sister. Then you can be like her and treat me as a brother!"

Chen Yu emphasized that, and Jiang Yilang shrugged: "Okay, now that you put it that way, I understand!"

"Yes, we got along slowly like this, and developed a brother-sister relationship. Then, when you were kidnapped, I was furious and decided to rescue you..."

"..."

Chen Yu let out a long sigh and had to admit that little girls nowadays are really precocious!

After explaining the general plot and characters to Jiang Yilang for a while, everyone heard the sound of boarding. Chen Yu then called everyone and walked towards the business class aisle.

Tomorrow is the day when the filming of Mission: Impossible - Spyder officially starts.
