() Overnight, the song "Go home and have a look" was sung all over the land of China, and the one who benefited the most is undoubtedly the singer Lin Zhimo.

Although the next day was the first day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Zhimo also needed to work—reshooting commercials.

During the re-shooting, the faces of those business representatives were always smiling. After all, they started early and signed the contract before Lin Zhimo's reputation was fully established. If they want to sign another contract now, they can It is absolutely impossible to win Lin Zhimo without paying double the fee.

That day, Lin Zhimo was filming a green tea commercial, Huo Xiwen hurried in, pulled Lin Zhimo over, and said excitedly: "Zhimo, good news! Director Zhang Yimou wants you to join his crew !"

Lin Zhimo was immediately taken aback, Zhang Yimou?How did he find himself?

Zhang Yimou is known as the representative figure of the fifth generation of directors in China. He grew from a photographer to an excellent actor. When he was an actor, he won the Golden Rooster Film Award for Best Actor and the Hundred Flowers Award for "Old Well" The most popular actor, and then became the first actor in China to win the best actor in the A-level international film festival—the best actor in the Tokyo International Film Festival!

However, at the peak of his career as an actor, he resolutely transformed into a director. Under the suspicion of the public, he won China's first director award at an international film festival - the Berlin Film Festival with "Red Sorghum". After the Golden Bear Award, whether it is "Ju Dou", "Raise the Red Lantern", "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", "To Live", "No One Less" and other films have a very high artistic level.

"Now Zhang Yimou, an internationally renowned director, actually wants me to film a movie?" Lin Zhimo just felt as if he was floating in the clouds.

After a long time, Lin Zhimo took a deep breath and asked, "Sister Wen, what's the specific situation?"

It turns out that Zhang Yimou has been shooting a movie about love, family, and affection since a few years ago, but due to various reasons, he has not been able to make it. It was not until last year that he finally started shooting after a long period of preparation.

However, an actor who had already joined during the filming could no longer continue to participate due to physical reasons, and his original filming roles had to be deleted, so the crew began to look for a replacement. <While a song at night brought great popularity to Lin Zhimo, it also made Lao Mouzi notice this young actor, so he contacted Huo Xiwen at this time.

When Lin Zhimo heard Huo Xiwen's explanation about the film, he realized that this was not a purely commercial film, or more precisely, an art film, and what an art film meant meant an award!

The reason why there are so many actors, especially the actors who are not yet famous, have been filming all kinds of literary films is because literary films can bring them awards. It saves the cost of bargaining, and winning awards will also bring them huge popularity.

Lin Zhimo's current popularity can be said to be huge, but Lin Zhimo doesn't have any awards. Whether it's music, TV series or movies, Lin Zhimo doesn't have any awards other than fame.

Now Zhang Yimou's invitation can be said to be timely help for Lin Zhimo, so Lin Zhimo did not hesitate at all, and said directly: "Sister Wen, accept it, and put off my other work for the time being."

Huo Xiwen was a little hesitant when he heard this, and said, "Zhimo, if you push it now, it can be said that you put all your treasures on this drama. If you succeed, it's okay, if you fail..."

Lin Zhimo figured it out, and said, "Sister Wen, no matter how popular I am now, I'm nothing compared to Lao Mouzi. As long as I can associate his name with him, no matter how popular this film is, It doesn't hurt me if I can't win an award!"

Another reason for Huo Xiwen's hesitation is that although the name of the play is "My Father and Mother", the "I" that Lin Zhimo wants to play is really not a main character, and even the "father" is nothing The important role is mainly about the role of "mother", which is why Huo Xiwen is hesitant. After all, now Lin Zhimo can be said to be an absolute big name in the field of TV dramas.

If Lin Zhimo wants to participate in the filming of a TV series now, he will definitely be the lead actor, and the TV series he is invited to participate in at this time will definitely not be a small-produced TV series, it can only be a big production by a famous director, but if he enters the field of movies, he will basically There is no difference between going up and starting all over again, you can only start slowly from the supporting role.

But Lin Zhimo thinks more far-reaching. Since the filming of Huanzhugege last year, he has wanted to join a film crew, and now he has an opportunity to cooperate with Zhang Yimou, and he will not let it go anyway.

Cooperating with great directors is not only a way to improve one's reputation, but also a good way to improve one's acting skills.And since Huanzhugege, Lin Zhimo has begun to realize that his acting skills are now stuck at a bottleneck. If he wants to improve, he must jump out of his current "idol" stereotype and change to a challenging role; Or it is to cooperate with experienced directors and break through their own strict requirements.

Joining Zhang Yimou's crew is a huge opportunity for Lin Zhimo.

After filming this commercial, Lin Zhimo went north to Fengning Grassland again.Why do I say again, because Lin Zhimo has been to Fengning several times in the past few years to film Huanzhugege.I have to say that Fengning's natural scenery is so beautiful that even Zhang Yimou, an international director, has chosen it as a shooting location.

After entering the crew, Lin Zhimo found Zhang Yimou first.

Now Zhang Yimou is almost 50 years old, with protruding wrinkles on his face and gray temples, but his eyes are still piercing. When you are stared at by him, it seems that those eyes can see through your heart.

Zhang Yimou kept looking at Lin Zhimo with his provocative eyes after Lin Zhimo came in, but Lin Zhimo didn't care, knowing that this was Zhang Yimou's investigation of himself.

After a while, Zhang Yimou showed a smile on his face, and said, "Not bad, the image is not bad, but the eyes are too bright."

Lin Zhimo was taken aback when he heard the words. He had just received the script and hadn't had time to read it carefully, so he didn't know what Zhang Yimou's specific requirements for the role he was about to play, so he said embarrassingly: "Director Zhang, I haven't read it carefully yet. script……"

Zhang Yimou waved his hand, interrupted Lin Zhimo, and said, "It's okay, there are still a few days before snowing, and you still have time to think carefully."

Lin Zhimo really doesn't know whether he has time or not has anything to do with the snow. Could it be that his scenes are all in the snow?

After leaving Zhang Yimou's camp, Lin Zhimo came to the small tent assigned to him to have a chance to analyze the script in his hand.

The play "My Father and Mother" mainly describes the "birth of a son" starring Lin Zhimo. Because of his father's death, he went home to hold a funeral for his father, and then unfolded a memory of his father and mother's love.

After carefully analyzing the script, Lin Zhimo was a little frustrated and found that his play seemed to be "wrong". It's not that Lin Zhimo's role is not important. , he can be regarded as the real male protagonist, but judging from the context of the whole movie, the role of "children" played by Lin Zhimo seems to be dispensable.

With doubts, Lin Zhimo approached Zhang Yimou: "Director Zhang, can you...can you tell me about your requirements for the role of having a child?"

Zhang Yimou glanced at Lin Zhimo with great interest, and said, "Why, do you think there is a gap between the characters in the play and what you imagined?"

Lin Zhimo nodded calmly, and admitted: "Yes, to be honest, I didn't think that my character was of this nature at all. It seems dispensable, just like other actors of this character. "

The so-called real actors refer to actors with the same professional nature as in reality. For example, Zhang Yimou's last film "No One Can Be Less" is such a movie, and the main actors in it are all real people in their true colors. .

Zhang Yimou didn't expect Lin Zhimo to admit his thoughts so frankly. His original impression of Lin Zhimo changed, and he asked, "Then tell me what you think about this character first?"

Lin Zhimo thought for a while and said, "Having a son is an ordinary person, a simple and unpretentious ordinary person."

Zhang Yimou's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but look at Lin Zhimo again. Unexpectedly, Lin Zhimo had already touched his own requirements for the role after a few hours of speculation: "You are right, the actor before you That's what I said to him, if after you've done this play and you're asked for an autograph on the street, it proves you've failed."

Lin Zhimo was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "I understand."
