Chapter 151 The First Meeting Between Shen Fei And Zhang Yimou (3, Please Subscribe Automatically)

Shen Fei's impression of Zhang Yimou is actually quite good.

After all, a director who is still serious about filming when he is in his seventies, and every film he produces is of high quality from a film point of view is indeed worth appreciating.

As for some traffic stars appearing in the movie, Shen Fei can also understand.

After all, the national teacher is also a human being, and he has to eat, and he must also consider investment and box office issues.

It is certainly attractive to have a show full of acting skills, but investors may not dare to invest money.

If you add some traffic stars, it will be different.

As long as the acting skills of these shooting star artists are not too bad, there is actually no loss to the whole drama. On the contrary, they can attract more investment and have a better effect in publicity by the way.

After all, in the traffic era of later generations, the popularity and attention of those traffic stars is undoubtedly higher than that of acting schools.

This is a fact that must be acknowledged.

actually,

The traffic stars of later generations, Xiao Xianrou Xiaohua Dan, are actually the same as those Hong Kong Island stars in the 1980s and 1990s.

The reason why many of them are out of the crowd and give everyone the feeling that they are not as popular as those stars in Hong Kong Island for a long time is actually very simple, because they have too few opportunities.

On Hong Kong Island, from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s, the film and television entertainment industry was highly developed [even to the point where it could lead the cultural industries in Southeast Asia, Japan, and Korea.

And those Hong Kong artists, such as Liu Tianwang, Liang Yingdi and Guo Tianwang, etc., after their debut, they not only want to sing and dance to participate in variety shows, but also to film and act in movies

Act in a TV series.

Moreover, in the Hong Kong Island entertainment industry at that time, there were new movies and TV series shooting almost every moment.

Liu Tianwang went to three crews a day, filming from morning to night, he was scolded by the director so bloody, fell from a height, he didn't dare to move until the director told him to stop, got up and saw his arms were swollen, I could only hug my manager and cry bitterly.

In the future, I have to continue filming with other crews.

That's the truth.

There is no way.

But the little fresh meat and the little Huadans in the mainland don't have such an opportunity at all.

The capital behind them only cares about how much money they can make and how much benefit they can bring to themselves.

As for whether their acting skills can be improved, it doesn't really matter at all, because they can't go back and praise a group of people.

Herein lies the problem.

Therefore, these young people in the mainland entertainment industry have no chance to improve themselves.

And in fact.

Cooperating with great directors can really improve the level of artists.

The most obvious example is Zhang Manyu.

You know, she was first called a vase artist.

In the end, because of cooperating with Sunglass King, he was suddenly promoted to Manshen!

A serious acting school, the kind who wins awards and gets soft hands.

so.

This great director is still very useful.

Because of Lin Xue's suggestion, Shen Fei became interested in Yimou.

After much deliberation, Shen Fei decided to give it a try.

So, he called Li Wei.

"Contact Zhang Yimou www?"

When Li Wei heard Shen Fei's words, he was stunned: "Boss, are you kidding me?"

"I like to joke a lot?"

Shen Fei glanced at him angrily and said, "I just asked you if it's okay to invite him to dinner.

"It's hard to say."

Li Wei thought for a while and said, "Director Zhang is busy with the opening ceremony and is probably preparing for the closing ceremony. I don't know if I can make an appointment.

After all, director Zhang Yimou is responsible for both the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games. It can be said that he is really busy during this time, and he doesn't even have time to shoot his own movie.

"Try it, just make an appointment for an hour."

Shen Fei thought for a while and said, "I'll meet and chat with him.

"good."

Li Wei finally nodded.

Although he felt that Shen Fei's idea was too ridiculous, but since the boss made this request, he would definitely do it.

Li Wei tried his best, but Shen Fei began to let people investigate Zhang Yimou's information.

Zhang Yimou, formerly known as Zhang Yimou, was later changed to Yimou.

Because children with poor family background are relatively discriminated against in society, coupled with the discrimination from the outside world, Zhang Yimou lost the innocence and liveliness of children prematurely, and developed a calm and introverted personality.

He once entered the No. 8 National Cotton Factory, and successively worked in the former spinning workshop and weaving workshop.

However, as soon as Zhang Yimou was free, he took the Huashan brand camera he bought for 8 yuan and set off.

Old tree trunks, clean river bends, old women peeling corn, farmers driving oxen and plowing fields...

He used this camera to take pictures of the local customs and customs in his hometown.

After the college entrance examination was resumed, Zhang Yimou, who believed that "only by going to college can he change his destiny" was preparing to apply for the Yanjing Film Academy. Although the teachers admired the photography he submitted when he applied, he had to lose the opportunity to take the exam because he was overage.

Unwilling to give up, Zhang Yimou, reminded by others, bound more than 30 photos he took into a book and sent it to a leader with a letter of eagerness to study.

Later, the leader issued instructions to the school, hoping to admit Zhang Yimou under the exception.

When filming his graduation project, Zhang Yimou joined the crew of "Red Elephant" directed by Tian Zhuangzhuang and went to Yunnan Province to film.

Director Guo Baochang, who later filmed "The Mansion Gate", was shocked when he saw this film: "I was dumbfounded when I saw that scene. China is about to produce a master!"

In 1983, Guangzhou Film and Television took a fancy to Xiying's script "Yellow Earth" and prepared to film it.

Photography was finalized by Zhang Yimou.

There was no suitable director for the moment, so Zhang Yimou recommended his classmate Chen Kaige.

It just so happened that that year, Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou, who were on the Loess Plateau for location selection, ran out of money and their car broke down, so they walked to Xiying on crutches and joined Guangzhou Shilumen.

Director Wu gave them 2,000 yuan, arranged food and accommodation, and found a jeep for them to sample, thus completing the birth of this masterpiece.

Wu Tianming knew that he could not retain Chen Kaige from Yanjing, so he focused all his attention on developing Zhang Yimou.

At that time, Wu Tianming's "Old Well" told Zhang Yimou: "You have to help me, you do the photography, and we will complete this joke together. After we finish it, you can go wherever you like."

As a result, Zhang Yimou changed from a photographer to a leading actor and won the Grand Prize at the Japan International Film Festival. He was also awarded the title of Best Actor.

Some movie actors who have studied acting seriously joked: "After watching Zhang Yimou's performance, we should all commit suicide."

Then, Director Wu defied all opinions and promoted Zhang Yimou from photography to director. The male lead Jiang Wen and the female lead Gong Li were chosen from thousands of people to adapt the original title of Mo Yan's "Red Sorghum Family" picture film " Jiujiutiaokou!

At that time, Gaomi, the filming location, had not grown sorghum for decades. Wu Tianming immediately sent more than 30,000 yuan from various departments to Zhang Yimou, asking him to quickly use it to grow sorghum: "If anything happens, I will take care of it."

In 1988, "Red Sorghum" won the Golden Bear Award for Best Film at the Berlin Film Festival. This was the first time a Chinese filmmaker won the highest award at a major European film festival.

At that time, when movie tickets only cost a few cents, the total domestic box office of "Red Sorghum" exceeded 40 million yuan that year.

Gong Li became a blockbuster from then on, and later screenwriter Lu Wei approached Zhang Yimou to watch the new film starring Chen Kaige and Gong Li.

After watching it, Zhang Yimou commented: "This is the movie that most resembles Hollywood."

That movie was "Farewell My Concubine" which later won the Best Picture at the Cannes Film Festival and the Golden Globe Award for Best Picture.

Later, Zhang Yimou bought the copyright of the novel "Alive" from Yu Hua and also asked Lu Wei to adapt the script.

Back then, Zhang Yimou had to gather the main creators together for a meeting after filming every day. At the end of the day, Lu Wei was so exhausted that he could only move two fingers, so he used them to press the record button and record the director's opinions first.

In the end, "Alive" won the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival, and Uncle Ge said the sentence ""A person is alive is better than anything else" and won the Cannes Best Actor.

But unexpectedly, due to politically sensitive issues, it has not been released in China so far.

Lu Wei later said: "At that time, I was very happy. I thought we were about to start. Unexpectedly, that was the end."

And not long after.

Wu Tianming, known as the godfather of film, fell into the bottom of his life because he went to the United States for exchanges and lectures. Because he said something wrong in an interview, he was involved in the controversy and was kicked out of the Western Film Festival.

After Zhang Yimou ushered in a creative peak period, he lost one big brother, but welcomed another nobleman, Zhang Weiping.

but now.

Because of the differences in artistic creation, the relationship between the two people has long been different from what it used to be.

It was under such circumstances that Shen Fei made an appointment with Zhang Yimou.

The place where the two people met was the office of the Olympic Games closing ceremony director team.

"Sorry, Mr. Shen, I can only give you half an hour."

Zhang Yimou looked at Shen Fei and said apologetically.

He is from the northwest, and when he stands there, he feels like a statue.

Shen Fei nodded when he heard this, smiled and said: "Director Zhang, you are so polite."

talking.

Shen Fei said bluntly: "I hope you can come to our Wanli Film and Television."

"ah?"

Zhang Yimou was startled, then shook his head and said, "Sorry, my cooperation with the current company is pretty good."

obviously.

Although there were some differences with Zhang Weiping, Zhang Yimou had no intention of leaving.

But Shen Fei's next words stunned him.

Shen Fei looked at Zhang Yimou and said slowly: "If you join Wanli Film and Television, no matter what project you want to make, I will provide 50% of the investment, and I will not interfere with your selection of actors or scripts.

?????

?????

Hearing Shen Fei's words, Yimou was stunned.

He looked at Shen Fei in surprise, with a puzzled look on his face.

Although it was his first meeting, he had naturally heard of Shen Fei's name.

He also knew that this young man was very rich, but he never expected that the other person was so rich.

Isn't this too crazy?
