The three major domestic directors, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, and Feng Xiaogang
This is recognized!
Every nation has two or three masters. No matter how poor the country is, it has to support a simple task. There is only one thing. If you want to shoot, you have to shoot historical facts that are of great value to your nation.
Feng Xiaogang mentioned Chen Kaige in 2003's "I Dedicate Your Youth" and said this
At that time, it was exactly ten years since "Farewell My Concubine" won the Palme d'Or. For ten years, "Farewell My Concubine" has been enshrined at the top of Chinese films. "Loess Land", "Singing While Walking", and "King of Children" are also unattainable magical products.
Unfortunately, two years later, "The Promise", which claimed to have spent 3.4 billion yuan, was released. Director Chen Da also ushered in the lowest point in his life with the release of this previously known as the mythological epic. He hung up and sold himself. The post-idealist narrative that was unknown to the end was all considered polite, and there were also the angry words of Chen Kaige's true form.
Many people in the industry commented on Chen Kaige and would say that he was "one of the most thoughtful directors in this dynasty, without any overrepresentation, and his skill level and personal pursuits were first-class."
Of course, it may be because it is too profound, so his works are difficult to accept by the audience
This is the case in this era. If a director who is not accepted by the audience is not a good director;
Works that cannot be sold at the box office are not good works!
Fortunately, with the accumulation of honors in the early stage, it is important to have qualifications in the domestic circle. Therefore, even though the production of "Jing Ke assassination of Qin" was ruined by 100 million yuan and the "Wuji" was ruined, someone still asked him to film...
Xu Hui met the Director Kaige. At the Directors Association's annual commendation meeting, he had a brief exchange with Chen Kaige.
However, the two couldn't have a relationship. After all, Chen Kaige is a senior, and Xu Hui has not yet reached the point of kneeling down and licking his senior. He just did his duty as a junior. After greeting him, Chen Kaige also encouraged him as a senior.
Very ordinary polite greetings
As an actor, Chen Hong was invited by the director, and that must be because of the role
It was agreed on the phone that there is a play, I hope Chen Hong can participate in it
There is no need for Chen Kaige to follow
Why are you worried that Paohui will attack his wife?
Is it possible? Paohui is so bold?
Even if he has the courage, Chen Hong may not be willing!
So worried about your wife?
Director Kaige, Sister Chen Hong...
Xu Hui hurriedly said hello
Xu Hui, here you go, sit down!
Chen Hong was very polite, and smiled and invited him to sit down. Chen Kaige sat aside, as if looking at him...
I'm going, I haven't heard of this big director having this habit.
Paohui was a little nervous
……
Sister Chen Hong, this is the script, you can read it first...
After Xu Hui sat down, he handed over the script.
In fact, the character of Jin Yingyu has been roughly mentioned on the phone
For actors, it is an instinct to distinguish whether characters can excel in character or not.
As an actress who has been in the industry for almost 20 years, can she still not tell whether a role can be outstanding?
The character Jin Xiangyu is a typical drama protector. Anyone who can perform some fur will definitely become popular!
After taking the script, Chen Hong couldn't wait to look it out
Xiao Xu Ah, what is this story?
Director Chen Kaige was very excited when he saw his wife's rare excitement, so he was quite curious and asked.
Well, this is a story I re-written based on "Longmen Inn" directed by Hu Jinquan. It is a martial arts film called "New Longmen Inn"... The story takes place in Damian, and Longmen Inn is the only place to rest when leaving Jiayuguan...
Xu Hui probably told the story summary of "New Longmen Inn"
This is good! Through a established space, the decent and villains are gathered together. The contradictions are in secret competitions for a long time, hidden and unreleased, and undercurrents are surging, forming a tug-of-war struggle! This tug-of-war battle is very good, and it will definitely look good when you shoot it nervously!
After all, he is a big director and can see at a glance the most attractive part of the movie "New Dragon Inn"!
Original time and space, "New Dragon Inn" has not yet surpassed the martial arts movies since 2015. In addition to the impeccable performance of the actors, it is more important that it conforms to the Chinese people's most intuitive understanding of martial arts: the desert and wind and sand, as well as the sword and the martial arts world!
I would like to borrow Ji Yan and Director Kaige, what works are you preparing for recently?
Xu Hui smiled and looked at Chen Kaige. The latter was a little silent, and then said: "The Orphan of Zhao" is about to be launched in two months, and he is busy doing the post-production...
Damn, Xu Hui really wants to slap himself twice
The special effects team chosen by Chen Kaige in "The Orphan of Zhao" is Base FX. When Lao Song called him to notify him, Xu Hui thought he had heard it wrong. Relatively speaking, domestic directors trusted the Tiangong Quancai more...
...I've been a little busy and confused recently. "Orphan of Zhao" is your director and starring Mr. Ge!
Xu Hui hurriedly looked for repair
Xu Hui, can I ask, why did you think of asking me to play such a role?
Before Chen Kaige could speak, Chen Hong had already browsed the script. She looked up and stared at Xu Hui and asked.
...There are too few actresses in China who can control this role, and...
Paohui can't continue talking
Because he wrote the image of Jin Yingyu in the biography of the script, "Bold, bold, and coquettish!"
Could it be that Xu Hui said in front of Chen Kaige, "I think your wife has a coquettish side!"
Guess, will he be beaten to death?
Paohui really feels that Chen Hong has a generous side, and the Northeast girl is quite heroic!
I said it straight, I like your play very much, but I guess I can't take it!
Without waiting for Xu Hui to speak, Chen Hong explained: I'm not afraid of you making jokes. In recent years, I don't value acting as much as before. First, I'm getting older, and secondly, Kaige can't live without me!
...Not, if you like it, just act!
Chen Kaige interjected
I read the script and I have a rough impression. Can you tell me how long will the specific filming date of this drama be planned?
Chen Hong just smiled and asked Xu Hui a question
I guess the filming will start in April next year and plan to film in the desert. And I may use new technology, and I will probably take at least half a year to shoot!
Xu Hui tells the truth
He doesn’t understand 3D IMX technology very well. The half-year shooting cycle is just an expectation, and maybe it will take longer!
That certainly won't work. Kaige likes a book called "Please forgive me". It is probably going to be the first half of next year. I have to help as a producer. I'm not at ease with it!
Chen Hong said this to directly refuse
Although it's a bit regretful, I don't feel particularly sad.
Originally, Chen Hong's image was more suitable for Qiu Moyan, rather than Jin Yingyu. Looking for her was because there was really no suitable candidate...
...That's a pity, I can only find another actor!
This is recognized!
