At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 269 Talking from Experience (44)

"Many merchants and people around here provided food and grass for us, but they were captured by the enemy and their heads were chopped off.

Did they recognize the money?No, what they recognize is the Tang Dynasty with a well-organized government and harmonious people, and all nations came to court! "

"When you arrive in Xizhou, I will send you a fast horse, and you will also help the brothers in Xizhou City bring some home letters back."

On the stage, "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" was being performed, and Shen Xudong was sitting in the first row, communicating with Jackie Chan and Tang Jili in a low voice...

"Is this the turning point of the plot?"

"…almost…"

Shen Xudong can't say anything - generally speaking, once the plot appears "wait for it" and "wait for me..." means that the character is about to die!
Sure enough, I met a thieves next...

"The Ninth Cavalry Squadron of the Xuange Battalion of the Wuwei Army of the Great Tang Dynasty, Guo Yuanzheng."

The veteran played by Zhang Bo handed a Mo Dao to Yang Shuo, who was dressed as a barbarian, while he himself held a red-tasseled gun pointed straight ahead.

"Xuanwei Army, Lu Fourteen."

Shen Xudong made a popular science sentence: "Actually, the title of "Jianzhong" in the Tang Dynasty was only used for four years. The so-called "Jianzhong 11 years" should actually be "Zhenyuan six years"...but the Anxi Army was alone outside the Great Wall and could not accept it. To the news..."

"…Really?"

"Of course!"

On the stage, when it was time for Yang Shuo to perform, he frantically dragged the purse, saying: "Mine, it's all mine, I'm rich!", "It's all mine!", "Buy It has dozens of acres of land, marrying a beautiful wife, wearing silk in summer and mink in winter, how happy it is!"

then…

The light hit his face, he suddenly sighed, tears flowed down, sighed, turned and walked in the opposite direction...

The last scene is General Guo sent him away - gave him a fast horse, and asked him to send letters home...

Yang Shuo was humming a tune, just the part of "Qin Shi Ming Yue Han Shi Pass, the Long March has not yet returned..."

No need to guess, it must be Shen Xudong's handwriting!
He sang the beginning, and then all the actors came to the stage and took off their hats, with silver hair all over their heads, they sang together, "But let the Dragon City Flying Generals be here, don't teach Humadu Yinshan!" '

Yang Shuo held the horse in his hand, stood in the center of the stage, turned his face to look at a group of actors...

lights dimmed...

A narration appeared: "General, which one do you think is farther between Chang'an and the sun?"

"Nonsense, it must be the sun. You have heard that someone came from Chang'an. When did you hear that someone came from the sun?"

"Then why raise your eyes to see the sun, but not Chang'an?"

The audience burst into applause!

……

"During that time, I read "Old History of the Five Dynasties", and there was a passage in which Zhang Yichao led the troops back to the Han and Tang Dynasties... It was quite long, and I still remember a sentence from the opposite side: Tang envoys went to the Western Regions, and on the way they saw sweet, cool, melon, The cities and towns of Sha and other prefectures are still the same. When the people who were trapped in the Tang Dynasty saw the envoys of the Tang Dynasty, they greeted each other with tears and wept, saying: "Does the emperor still want to trap the souls of the Tibetans?" ', by the way, there is also 'these people are descendants of those who fell into Tubo in Tianbao, their language is slightly corrupted, and their clothes have not changed'..."

"I am very moved. It has been decades since the end of Tianbao to the period of Tang Wenzong, but these people still insist on their national identity. After living in a strange place for a long time, the voice is easy to change, and even the clothes will change, but the heart I have a deep sense of identity with my own nation and country, but I still insist on...

This persistence, I have to say, made me more than 1000 years later, even through words, I was greatly touched, and then I wrote "Glory of the Tang Dynasty"! "

In the car, Shen Xudong talked about the origin of "Glory of the Tang Dynasty"...

Tang Jili nodded: "I read your script, and then looked through the information, it turned out to be true...but the military spending is fake, right?"

Shen Xudong smiled, but didn't answer...

"...Your script is good everywhere, but unfortunately there are no female characters!"

"Yes," Shen Xudong retorted: "The businessman team I met on the way, the proprietress is a woman!"

"Not enough!" Tang Jili shook his head: "This little role is not enough..."

Shen Xudong scratched his head: "Then I can't write about a girl who ran away from home and insisted on following Lu Shishi?"

"Why not? This woman can be the target of the thieves... That's why they chased Guo Yuanzheng and Lu Shishi..."

Shen Xudong was about to speak, when Tang Jili said again: "I'm just giving you a suggestion. Big brother Jackie Chan likes the current script very much, so don't change it, but if big brother doesn't like it, you have to change it... The investor likes this kind of script!"

"...Conveniently Gasser actress?"

"correct…"

Seeing Shen Xudong's disdainful expression, Tang Jili shook his head: "Think again, why do you want to be an actress, besides attracting investment!"

Shen Xudong glanced at him, thought seriously, and then... thought of something, and asked in a low voice, "Is it a co-production rule?"

Tang Jili smiled: "Yes... no wonder Tony praised you for being smart!"

"Tony?"

"Tony Leung Ka Fai...that's Liang Jiahui...he told me a lot about you, and I also watched the part about Shaw Brothers in "The Screening Room"...it's still not detailed enough!"

"...You mean the part about Mr. Luo Lie?"

"Do you know my relationship with him?"

"certainly…"

Tang Jili is Luo Lie's brother-in-law. Luo Lie, like Wang Yu, Wu Ma, and Zheng Lei, is Zhang Che's first-generation disciple. Later, the red and purple Wang Yu left Zhang Che. Second-generation disciples such as Ti Lung, David Jiang, and Chen Guantai...

Of course, it's not like he didn't give Luo Lie a chance, but Luo Lie's appearance is more domineering...

In any case, Luo Lie has always been one of the famous actors. Tang Jili also entered the "Liu Family Class" under the introduction of his brother-in-law Luo Lie, and worshiped Xiaohou (Hou Yaozong) of the Liu Family Class as his teacher. Refers to the industry's hard work...

At the end of the 80s, the development of Hong Kong films entered a golden period. Many martial artists were in this upsurge, transforming directors and seeking opportunities, and Tang Jili was one of them.

In 1990, Tang Jili raised funds, set up his own film company, and wrote and directed the movie "Dragon of the Devil".

After the release of this work, although Tang Jili's film company lost everything, the excellent action scene design in the movie made Tang Jili gain the attention of the Hong Kong film giant "Golden Harvest".

Golden Harvest He Guanchang invited Tang Jili and Jackie Chan, the "Hong Kong film box office overlord", to form a partner.

Subsequent "Police Story 3", "Red Fan District", and "Police Story 4" also broke the box office records of the Hong Kong film market time and time again.

The success of the box office has brought Tang Jili a lot of prestige, but also caused him to encounter a lot of doubts.

After all, in the Hong Kong action film market, Jackie Chan's personal aura is too strong-is the success of these works due to Tang Jili's director skills, or Jackie Chan's market influence?
Tang Jili himself told a story: "In 2000, I independently created a film work. I hoped to prove myself through this work, but it turned out..."

"I know, Thunderbolt..."

While talking, Shen Xudong imitated Guo Fucheng: "Ali, don't die!" ' As he said, he laughed out loud...

That show just blew up...

However, the media commented: "Thunder Men" thoroughly proved that Aaron Kwok can't act!
Quite normal, most idols will want to prove themselves too much after they are not recognized for their acting skills, and there may be an extreme: too much force, they can't stop at all, and the subtext is "I can act"!
Guo Fucheng, Xie Biwang and Leonardo are all the same!
"Wish you could do a feature about me in the screening room..."

"must!"

Shen Xudong smiled and nodded...

The car stopped under the hotel, Shen Xudong followed Tang Jili out of the car, and then saw Zhang Guoli who came out to greet him and... Huang Zhonglei...

Jackie Chan is in another car...
