Chapter 228 Directors mocking each other

Poet Chen's righteousness was so awe-inspiring and so eloquent that Han Sanping was speechless for a moment.

The Haitang Jingshe first built by the crew has been demolished.

Does the building have welding issues?

Whether the welding problem is serious enough to require demolition and reconstruction of a new Haitang Jingshe, he should not speculate.

It doesn't matter whether there is judgment or not.

The building was demolished, the new Haitang Jingshe was built, and 800 million was spent. He had doubts about what to do, which made the crew panic and affected the subsequent filming. The filming of "The Promise" had just started, and the road Still growing.

Mr. Han took a look at the wooden house that was leaking air everywhere. He felt unhappy, but he still suppressed his anger and said, "Where was the scene filmed? Get a copy of the shooting script for me and Jiang Liu."

"Mr. Han, you are busy first, I have to go to the mountain to take a look."

"How could the script be given randomly? Don't you embarrass me?"

Jiang Liu and Chen Kaige said almost in unison.

It is not difficult to understand why Han Sanping made this move. China Film was under great pressure to take responsibility for its own profits and losses, and invested in Guo Jiangliu and Chen Kaige respectively.

Jiang Liu's recent two films have sold well, and he is recognized in the industry as being good at making commercial and entertainment films.

Chen Kaige is famous, but his last major production, "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin", was released in 1999. It did not do well at the box office that year, and it was five years later.

In the past five years, Chen Kaige has filmed TV series and spent time in the Hollywood independent film industry. The domestic film market is changing with each passing day. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is out of touch with the times.

Combining the two, because the investment was too large, Mr. Han, who was under great pressure, came up with the idea of ​​abandoning the outdated tradition of his predecessors and letting his junior Jiang Liu take control of his senior Chen Kaige.

From a business perspective, Han Sanping's idea is good and right. When everyone adds fuel, the flames will rise.

But it's like putting Jiang Liu on the fire.

A director with a big heart may not care, and may even be happy to have Jiang Liu as a free consultant.

No matter how you look at Poet Chen, he doesn't look like a broad-minded person.

Xu Jianguo heard a little-known story about Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou from Zhang Weiping.

It is said that Zhang Yimou made a splash in Cannes with "To Live" and promoted Ge You to the Cannes podium and won the Cannes Best Actor. At the same time, "To Live" also won the Cannes Jury Prize.

When the news came back to the country, everyone from the official to the private sector was jubilant. People in the media, literary and art circles all felt proud that Zhang Yimou had brought glory to the country.

Chen Kaige happened to see the newspaper report while he was squatting on the toilet. It is said that he curled his lips with great disdain: "A small worker who carried equipment for me can also win an award!"

This little story was revealed to a friend by Chen Kaige’s ex-wife, and the truth or falsehood is unknown.

However, it is very consistent with Poet Chen's past style.

As a classmate of Zhang Yimou, he was so narrow-minded, how could he treat Jiang Liu, a junior like him?

Jiang Liu did not want to get involved in anything related to the crew of "The Promise". As soon as Mr. Han finished speaking, he wanted to leave this place of right and wrong.

But Han Sanping refused and stopped Jiang Liu, who was about to run away: "There is no priority in learning, and those who are masters come first. I asked you to come together. I just ask you to check "The Promise"."

As soon as these words came out, Chen Kaige's sullen look became even more frightening.

When Jiang Liu saw this, he wanted to give Mr. Han a slap in the face.

With China Film Group at his back, he can say whatever he wants in front of people in the industry without any scruples. No one dares to grin when he says what is right or wrong.

No matter how good Jiang Liu is, Yi Xin is still a private film and television company. As long as no one comes to bully it, it must be friendly and make money, and try not to offend others.

Mr. Han was lucky. With just a few words, he successfully made an enemy for him. Chen Kaige was so good-looking that he probably already hated him.

Sure enough, the next moment I heard Chen Kaige say: "Mr. Han, movies are the mirror of the director. What the movie looks like reflects what kind of person the director is."

“I saw ‘Pirates’ in a very beautifully decorated cinema on the other side of the ocean.”

Speaking of "Pirates", Chen Kaige looked at Jiang Liu at the right time: "I can only say, Jiang Liu, I hope you will broaden your scope of aesthetics, tastes and hobbies."

"Kai Ge, what are you talking about?" Mr. Han was displeased.

People in the capital's art circles all know that Poet Chen has a rebellious nature.

After all, she comes from a good family, and she became famous throughout the country with "Farewell My Concubine" in her early years.

When he was young, he reached a height that many people cannot reach in their lifetime. It is completely understandable that he has a weird temper.

But being so unruly and troubling others in front of others, Mr. Han never expected it and was extremely unhappy.

Jiang Liu was mentally prepared, so he only made a few movies, two of which were good at the box office.

These are nothing in Poet Chen's eyes. After all, he is a master who will read poems in front of the Olympic Organizing Committee in the future.

"I invited Jiang Liu. If it were me, do you think he would walk into the set of "The Promise"? Even if you spend money to invite him, you may not come. I think you think too highly of yourself."

Jiang Liu didn't hold his nose and recognize Chen Kaige's scholarly sarcasm just because Mr. Han helped to fight the injustice.

"Director Chen, it's rude to come and go without reciprocating. Let me also evaluate you in my eyes."

"You are like a conservative figure who came out of a closed world. You are still immersed in your own pear orchard world. You think that as soon as Xipi Erhuang rings or the huqin is played, the drama will come immediately. In fact, you know all the six things and know nothing. If you don't believe it, let's go. Let’s see!”

"Mr. Han, I'm going up the mountain." Jiang Liu opened the door curtain and left Haitang Jingshe.

"Hey, I can still bump into acquaintances even though I'm running so far."

"The little girl has grown a year older and is still a big talker. Let me see who dares to marry you in the future."

Seeing Guan Xiaotong, Jiang Liu calmed down his stern expression for a second, smiled and picked up Guan Xiaotong, who was dressed in a beggar's outfit, and tilted his face: "Kiss your right cheek."

Guan Xiaotong couldn't break free. After a slur, Jiang Liu put him down with a smile and shook hands with Li Jun: "Why don't you negotiate with the assistant director to film Xiaotong's scene first? School will start soon."

Li Jun and Li Xin get along quite well, and they often meet up to go shopping and have meals together in their free time.

Love Wu and Wu, Jiang Liu prefers Guan Xiaotong.

"I can catch up, Xiaotong only has two scenes left."

Jiang Liu said with a smile: "That's good, you stay with Xiaotong, I want to go up the mountain."

"Uncle Jiang, I want to go up the mountain too."

"What kind of mountain did you go to? Now that you are an actor on the crew, you must be dedicated first."

Jiang Liu pretended to be angry and scolded Guan Xiaotong, and shook hands with the photographers Bao Dexi, Zhang Dongjian and others who were watching.

"Director Jiang, congratulations. The box office of "Monster" surpassed "The Flying Taegeuk Flag" and became the Korean box office champion." Jang Dong Gun looked at Jiang Liu hopefully.

He was the leading actor in "The Flying Tai Chi Flag" and was selected by Chen Kaige to be the male lead in the big production "The Promise". He was equally popular in China and South Korea.

But if you ask him which Asian director he would most like to work with in his next film, it would definitely be Jiang Liu.

A young director whose films have hit the box office in both China and South Korea, and are even more popular than him.

He doesn't speak Chinese and doesn't know how famous Jiang Liu is in China.

In South Korea, Jiang Liu's name cannot be said to be a household name, but he is highly respected by countless young Koreans.

In the minds of young Koreans, Jiang Liu is a person who leads the trend in Asia.

He is the best director among Asian directors who combines drama and entertainment.

It is an evolved version of Korean director Bong Joon-ho.

"Thank you."

Jiang Liu switched to Korean and thanked him, and together with the Yixin Kanjing staff, led by Team Leader Qiu, they ran towards the mountains not far away.
