Chapter 383 "A Lang's Story"

Human nature cannot be corrected immediately, it requires a process, Wang Xiaohu did not expect Wu Mengda to quit gambling immediately, but he must be given some warnings, let him remember the warnings, so that he will not continue to make mistakes the way of the future.

"I conceived a script." Wang Xiaohu looked at Chow Yun-fat and Wu Mengda, and said quietly: "I plan to start the film after the Chinese New Year. Fazi will be the leading role, and Ada will be the supporting role."

Since he starred in "Ip Man", Chow Yun-fat was "assigned" by Wang Xiaohu to TVB TV station for training. In two years, he has played a role in three TV series. Although he performed very hard, he could not get the TV directors of TVB after all. The reason is very simple, because Chow Yun-fat is too eye-catching, and his acting skills are so good that it is easy to steal the roles of the leading actors.

This embarrassing situation barely came to an end after "Jing Fu Men" became popular. Since late last month, "Jing Fu Men" has played [-] episodes. Cai Xuefu, played by Chow Yun-fat, was hated by Hong Kong citizens, and then TVB's Those directors seemed to smell a knock on the door and rushed to let Chow Yun-fat comeo as a villain in their TV series, as if he was born to be a villain.

Chow Yun-fat naturally didn't want to see this kind of phenomenon. He was depressed about it for a long time. Now that Wang Xiaohu said that he would be the leading actor, the depression that had been squeezed for many days was swept away. I have a chance to be a leading actor, otherwise I will become a stereotyped actor of bad guys."

Wang Xiaohu still understood what Chow Yun-fat encountered during this time, so he said with a smile, "Do you know why I keep letting you play the role of the villain?"

Chow Yun-fat shook his head and said, "I don't know."

He really didn't know, originally he thought Brother Hu arranged this way because of the bad impression he left when he was working in Bruce Lee's restaurant, but with the development of the past two years, he found that things were not like that. , and even asked him to take classes in the TVB artist training class, and recommended him to work in TVB, and this matter has been bothering him for a long time.

"Actually, the reason is very simple, because being a villain can hone your acting skills." Wang Xiaohu told the truth, seeing Chow Yun-fat's thoughtful look, he continued: "Whether it's the Japanese translator Li Zhao, or Cai Liujin's My son, Cai Xuefu, looks like a bad person, but they are different in essence. At least Li Zhao’s badness is on the surface, but he is kind and has a backbone. Cai Xuefu is bad from the inside out.”

After watching Cai Xuefu appear on TV, many viewers wished they could get into the TV and give him a few slaps.Cai Liujin asked him to leave Shanghai for his own good, but not only did he not understand his father's painstaking efforts, but he colluded with the Japanese, fought against each other, and shot his biological father; he killed his second uncle Cai Jinhu in cold blood; The shameful thing is that he not only became a Japanese citizen, but also took a Japanese dog name "Inuyang Xuefu"!At the wedding banquet between Hideaki Ishii and Yumi Takeda, when he learned that Japan had accepted Germany's rights and interests in Shandong, he was the first to knock on his knife and fork and shout "Long live Japan, long live the emperor".

The most shameful thing is that he even stained his father's confidante Qiqiao by threatening to let his father Cai Liujin go. "Xuefu, I have two guns here, one with bullets and one without bullets, you choose one", the father and son finally had a showdown, the scene was so unbearable, there was only one gun, and one gun ended an extremely shameful life .Cai Xuefu's expression was very painful when he was dying, but the audience didn't feel pleasure, on the contrary, their hearts were very heavy.

The filming of "Fist of Fury" actually left a lot of time for Chow Yun-fat to figure out Cai Xuefu's character in depth. Usually, he always keeps the script in hand, lists Cai Xuefu's character on paper, and analyzes his every word and deed. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is possessed.Just like Chow Yun-fat's persistence and hard work, there is Cai Xuefu, a real character who makes everyone angry and scolds his mother when he hears it. Even if Chow Yun-fat walks on the street, he will hear many citizens pointing and talking behind him.

Now that Wang Xiaohu finally revealed the answer, Chow Yun-fat thought back on his development in the film and television industry over the past three years, and found that even if the lecturers in the TVB artist training class talked about hype, it was not as good as Wang Xiaohu's method to improve an actor's acting skills quickly and quickly. direct!
"Are you still struggling with playing the villain now?" Wang Xiaohu said with a smile.

Chow Yun-fat shook his head, his face was full of joy, but he scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Don't worry about it, thank you Brother Hu for your hard work these years."

"I'll cultivate it, but it's useless if you don't seek to make progress. All of this is the result of your own hard work." Wang Xiaohu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Only when acting skills are in your own hands can you act well." like what."

The two asked and answered each other, which made Wu Mengda, who was covered in scars, stunned for a while. He didn't know that Fazi's acting skills were so good through continuous hard work and diligence. Looking at himself, he was also The students in the third period, while others are in full swing, they themselves have become gamblers.

This had a great impact on Wu Mengda's heart. He sighed heavily, lowered his head a little ashamed, his eyes were wet, and there was a factor called remorse growing in his heart and brain.

When Wu Mengda finished his inner confession, he heard Wang Xiaohu talking about the script idea of ​​the new film. Before Wang Xiaohu said that he would also play a supporting role in the new film, so he forgot the pain all over his body and listened attentively to Wang Xiaohu's talk.

"The plot of this story is: Bobo, a rich girl, married a motorcycle driver A Lang despite her family's opposition. Later, she found that A Lang was addicted to racing and had no time to take care of her. Bobo’s mother colluded with the doctor to pretend that the baby was dead, and tricked her to the United States. After Alang was released from prison, he deeply regretted his previous behavior, so he retrieved his son Bozai from the orphanage, and the two depended on each other. Ten years later, Bo Bo, who has a fiancé, returns to Hong Kong to do business. She realizes that her son has grown into a young racing athlete. Participated in a car race at a young age and in good physical condition, but died in a car accident due to a relapse of an old disease when he was about to win..."

That's right, the script of the new film that Wang Xiaohu is talking about now is exactly Chow Yun-fat's masterpiece "A Lang's Story". Although the story of the film is relatively simple, it is full of romantic and tragic colors, full of dramatic tension, and makes people cry.

Wang Xiaohu still remembers that Chow Yun-fat's performance in this film is also remarkable. He delicately expresses A Lang's meticulous care for his son, and at the same time implicitly expresses his desire to reconcile the old relationship with his wife.In different situations, the helplessness, ecstasy, disappointment and other inner activities revealed in his eyes truly and accurately grasped the emotional world of A Lang, the ex-prodigal son. To the fullest. (The classic work of father and son is not "Letter to Dad". That film will be filmed sooner or later, but not now. I have to wait for a key character to appear. Hurry up, don't worry.)
What moved Wang Xiaohu even more was that the ending credits of this movie came from Luo Dayou's famous work "Your Look", a song that has been sung badly, a song that is extremely sensational, when Luo Dayou's vicissitudes of voice is matched The tearful lyrics and a poignant ending vividly set off the tragic hero A Lang, earning the tears of countless people!

While the film was a hit back then, Chow Yun-fat's superb acting skills fully brought to life the down-and-out driver A Lang. Once again, his impeccable acting skills won the unanimous affirmation of the experts and judges, and he was awarded the Best Actor in the Academy Awards!
Such a classic movie, how could Wang Xiaohu let it go?What's more, he felt that it was time to win Chow Yun-fat.

After Wang Xiaohu finished talking about the general plot of the script, he found that Chow Yun-fat was frowning in thought, and Wu Mengda stared at this and then that with big eyes like a goose.

After a while, Wang Xiaohu asked: "This time the character is not a bad guy, are you interested?"

Chow Yun-fat let out an "ah", shook his head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Brother Hu, I was trying to figure out A-Lang's character just now."

"Hehe. Entering the role so soon?" Wang Xiaohu didn't blame him, and was even a little happy. This shows that Chow Yun-fat is working hard all the time, and he started to figure out the character of the character in less than a minute. It's a good phenomenon, so don't blame him for winning the title of God of Acting in the future.

"Yeah, Brother Hu, you may not know that this film is very stressful for me." Chow Yun-fat frowned and analyzed, "Because Brother Hu has already portrayed the role of father in "A Hu" deeply into the hearts of the people. , I want to surpass Brother Hu, the difficulty is not ordinary."

Wang Xiaohu was startled when he heard the words, and immediately understood the reason for Chow Yun-fat. In fact, if you think about it carefully, the plots of "A Hu" and "A Lang's Story" are somewhat similar. For example, in the end, they all returned to the field of sports they were good at in order to save their family and love, and finally fell down tragically, earning a lot of tears.

Historically, "A Lang's Story" was released in 1989, while "A Hu" was released in 2000. Needless to say, it can be seen that "A Hu" is a classic that includes the characteristics of Hong Kong movies and Hollywood inspiration A hodgepodge, now Chow Yun-fat has concerns about two films with similar styles.

"Brother Hu, I'm afraid that a bad performance will affect the box office." Chow Yun-fat expressed his concerns directly. After all, Wang Xiaohu's films are all box office vampires.
