At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 331 What is so noble about making a movie? (twenty three)

Shen Xudong didn't really have a good impression of Andy Lau before...

I always feel that this person is too hypocritical!
But after entering this circle, I understood a lot of truths.

The real rivers and lakes are not about fighting and killing, but the sophistication of the world is more important!
Those who say that Andy Lau is hypocritical, and those who say that he has established a persona, you can feel it when you stand in his position.

To be honest, a public figure has to be like him.

Although, it does not mean that he is exactly the same in private, but after all, no one is perfect, everyone has seven emotions and six desires, no matter how good they are, there will be trolls and keyboard warriors.

It has been more than [-] years since my debut, not to mention small problems, there are almost no big mistakes!
It is not easy to act in so many plays conscientiously and bring so many works to the audience.

If a person pretends to be a gentleman all his life, then he is no different from a real gentleman...

Regardless of deeds, no matter the heart, no one is perfect in the world!

Liu Dehua approached Shen Xudong mainly because of Zhao Yun: "I heard that you are going to write "The Legend of Zhao Yun"?"

"correct…"

"How to create?"

Shen Xudong didn't hide anything: "Two ideas, one is to make the script according to the Hollywood hero template, and the other is to refer to the game of "Three Kingdoms Zhao Yun Biography"..."

"Hollywood hero template?"

"For heroes, Hollywood has a script formula. Master-level screenwriter Christopher Vogler wrote a book called "The Writer's Journey". This book is called "Hollywood Film Screenwriter's Guide". The template for creating heroes..."

Chen Guofu nodded: "That's true, Christopher Vogler, he is a script consultant for masterpieces such as "The Lion King" and "Fight Club"!"

"But I think the most attractive thing about Zhao Yun is loyalty and unfulfilled ambition..."

The most touching part of the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms": Zhuge Liang did not cry when he heard the news of Zhao Yun's death, but took a nap at his desk.During the nap, Zhuge Liang had a dream about Zhao Yun. In the dream, Zhao Yun said nine words to Zhuge Liang: Prime Minister, Zilong will not die with peace!After Zhuge Liang woke up from the dream, he looked up to the sky and cried!
"So, I have two impressions of Zhao Yun. One is a silver armor and white robe, a long spear, and Chang Banpo hugs a Dou seven times in and out, as if entering the land of no one, and the other is trying to help the Han Dynasty..."

Liu Dehua nodded: "I only know that he is the ever-victorious general..."

Shen Xudong nodded: "Later generations have a lot of praise for Zhao Zilong... Let me just say one: there are tiger generals in Changshan, and the wise and brave are Guanzhang. The meritorious service in Hanshui is there, and the surname of Dangyang is Zhang. He helped the young master twice, and answered the emperor once. Qing Shishu is loyal, It should flow forever."

Chen Guofu nodded: "Brother Hua is quite suitable to play Zhao Zilong..."

"Well, let me write two versions. After you finish writing, you can read them all, and then we will shoot whichever version you think is suitable!"

"…That's great!"

……

After a few touches, I feel that Andy Lau is really serious and motivated...

He thinks about the role for himself.

It is estimated that it is also influenced by the media.

The Hong Kong media is very annoying, always emphasizing Andy Lau's age, and then specifically pointing it out-"Say I Love You Again", Andy Lau's partner Charlene Choi is described as a father-daughter relationship...

Yes, from the age point of view, it is quite accurate, but... this shit is a romance movie!
Besides, if Andy Lau didn't look for Charlene Choi, who else could he look for?

What about Wu Junru?

There is no one else in the Hong Kong film industry!

But the media doesn't care about this, especially the Hong Kong media, which has always been unscrupulous.

So he has rarely made pure love films in recent years.

He received 650 million for the book "A World Without Thieves". Compared with the tens of millions of film remuneration for "Jianghu" last year, this remuneration is actually a bit low, at least not in line with his worth.

But it doesn't matter, the director of "A World Without Thieves" is Feng Xiaogang, the screenwriter is Shen Xudong, the starring lineup is even more Gong Li Geyou, and the winner of the two major European film festivals is serving him alone. This treatment...

As an aside, in terms of remuneration for actors in A World Without Thieves, the most expensive one is Gong Li, who received 150 million US dollars, followed by Andy Lau's 650 million yuan.

Uncle Ge 450 million...

Chen Hao is 35.

It is also because of Gong Li that the cost of "A World Without Thieves" has risen to 4500 million...

In addition, Shen Xudong took a brief observation and found that Andy Lau's acting skills are actually adequate.

It's not the only one, but it's okay, at least it doesn't look awkward.

Most actors are like this, it depends on the director and the script.

Like Uncle Ge, he also acted in such bad movies as "Peach Blossom" and "Breathless"!

……

The behind-the-scenes team of "A World Without Thieves" is quite luxurious, from the art team to the photography team, they are all unique in the mainland.

Shen Xudong didn't have any pressure to get along with them, neither licking nor looking down on them, just communicated normally.

Treat them the same as treating Andy Lau.

No, at least he can joke with these people unscrupulously, telling dirty jokes, but it is impossible with Andy Lau.

This is different from most of the actors in the crew. Chen Hao, including Gong Li, treated Andy Lau very respectfully.

It may be inappropriate to describe him respectfully, but his attitude towards him is indeed somewhat flattering...

Chen Hao even asked Shen Xudong: "Aren't you chasing stars?"

"What's there to chase?"

"Andy Lau, perfect idol!"

"Entertainment is a profession, but it only earns a lot. If you really want to count it as a contribution to the country, it must be a scientist who has contributed the most!"

Shen Xudong didn't care...

Chen Hao was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I found that you have swollen recently!"

Shen Xudong pointed to his nose: "I am bloated? Why am I bloated?"

"The box office of "The Fox Wife in the Mountain Village" broke 4000 million. In terms of return on investment, it is the project with the highest profit rate..."

"What does this have to do with me? I don't even have the copyright!"

"You wrote it, didn't you?"

"I wrote it..."

"A lot of media say that you are a lucky star at the box office, and the book you wrote must be a big hit at the box office!"

Shen Xudong was speechless: "The media is really boring. Listening to the wind is raining... The box office is a big hit? It's not as good as some officials..."

"Bah, don't talk nonsense!"

"Um…"

Shen Xudong shut up in time, and then said: "I found that some directors in Hong Kong really have different brains from normal people!"

"What's wrong? Did Andy Lau provoke you?"

"Andy Lau is not the director, I'm talking about Johnny To!"

Chen Hao was surprised: "...you have something to do with Du Qifeng?"

"He asked me to write a love script, and I wrote it. He said that it must be combined with the background of the times... This is pure brain twitch!"

"What happened to the background of the times?"

"He wants the kind that can't pass the trial."

When Du Qifeng was mentioned, Shen Xudong became angry.

A fool, look at what he said "Movies represent society, if they want to destroy a place, the first thing they do is destroy movies..."

Neuropathy…

Destroy the movie?

In fact, in the eyes of many people, the movies are nothing!
still free...

Hong Kong movies are not free enough, the best movie of the year ""...I can't even write...

You want to award, who stopped you?
Love to award or not!

It was photographed and awarded to you, but you still said that you are not free, what do you want to do?

Many Hong Kong people are so awkward, relying on the mainland for food, but they still have to put on a high-ranking attitude.

You just make a movie, what's the matter, do you think you can control the world structure?
You thought you were a comedian?
Do not cooperate with this kind of idiot!
