Liu Wenwu didn't sit here with Zhou Yan for long before he got up to leave and went to find Liu Heping.
"Lao Tang, I passed first, you and Zhou Dao narrate the old."
Tang Guo's wall nodded, "Then you go first, wait for me to find you."
After Liu Wenwu left, Tang Guoqiang smiled and said, "After filming "Three Kingdoms", have you met the other old brothers?"
"The second brother and the third brother met, the third brother has just shot" Time Love Traveler "with me."
"Oh, yes, he played your uncle in the movie. I also watched the movie. He acted very stupidly, and he showed his true character."
Zhou Yan laughed, "Next time you scold him in person."
"How can I scold him? I am obviously praising him."
"Then he has to thank you."
"That's right, haha."
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "How are you doing at the Youth Art Theater now?"
Tang Guo Wall went to the China Youth Art Theater from Bayi Factory in 1993. Zhou Yan listened to him when he went to the crew.
"Okay, it's better than when in Bayi Factory."
Zhou Yan nodded, Tang Guoqiang did not have many works published in recent years.
Speaking of which, this is also the situation faced by most of the main actors in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
After "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", everyone's development in film and television has been average.
In the past few years, Sun Yanjun has acted in "Anti-Corruption Director", Lu Shuming has acted in "Westward Journey", Li Jingfei has acted in the TV series "Beijing-Kowloon Love" and Zhou Yan's "Time Traveler".
However, the three of them cooperated with Bao Guoan a TV series called "Sun Wu", which has not been broadcast for the time being.
Tang Guoqiang is not much better than them. In the past few years, he has acted in "The Kingdoms of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty". This time "Yongzheng Dynasty" can be regarded as his second film and television work after "Three Kingdoms".
Speaking of which, Tang Guoqiang's acting career really took off from "Yongzheng Dynasty". After "Yongzheng Dynasty", he took more and more roles, and the roles became heavier and heavier, so that later he specialized in Playing the role of an emperor.
Now that he has no filming, the Youth Art Theater is definitely a little more idle than Bayi.
"Since it's relatively leisurely, you can come to me when it's okay."
Tang Guoqiang waved his hand, "I am very free, but I know you are very busy, so I won't come to disturb you. But if you have a chance later, you can ask Sun Yanjun and the others to come over and get together. In those few years of filming, we had to live in the open air. It feels very bitter, but now that I think about it, I miss it very much. I still remember that time when you and Sun Yanjun went out to steal corn..."
Zhou Yan quickly interrupted him, "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't steal corn."
Tang Guo wall nodded with a smile, "Yes, yes, you didn't steal it. I used the wrong word. You went out to borrow corn with the fellow, right."
Seeing Tang Guoqiang's half-smiling expression, Zhou Yan felt helpless in his heart.
Forget it, the explanation is useless, no explanation.
Seeing Zhou Yan's frustrated look, Tang Guoqiang smiled and said, "Didn't you write a song called "Borrowing Cucumbers"? You can also write a song "Borrowing Corns"."
Zhou Yan couldn't help but roll his eyes and busy borrowing things since he didn't do anything every day.
The key point is that whether it was borrowing corn or cucumbers, he was not directly involved. It was completely an unreasonable disaster.
Moreover, in some versions, it is not Zhou Yan and Sun Yanjun who steal corn, but he takes Sun Yanjun and others to steal corn.
After all, this version is more logical. The three brothers of them have not stealed corn and no corn, but you are on the first day of your guidance, and they go to steal corn.
No matter how you look at it, you, Zhou Yan, are the instigators.
"Hey, you are an important role in the new drama, how are you ready?" Zhou Yan began to transfer the topic.
Tang Guo's wall nodded, "Study is almost the same. As long as their script does not modify it, I am okay. This Yongzheng ..."
Then he started to talk about his understanding of the script and the character. At first, Zhou Yan didn't think there was a problem, but after listening for a while, he felt something was wrong.
Isn't Tang Guo wall going to play the Eight Brother? Why are you talking about Yongzheng?
Zhou Yan stopped for a while and interrupted Tang Guo's wall.
Tang Guoqiang laughed and said, "Hey, Brother Eight, I know it well, and I can do it well without talking about it."
He said this very confidently, even a little arrogantly, but it was a bit unlike Tang Guoqiang's style.
Although Zhou Yan's contact with Tang Guo Wall is only limited to the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he still knows some of them. This guy is really confident, but he usually speaks very low -key.
Now his attitude is naturally a problem.
Zhou Yan probably guessed the reason. He smiled and asked, "You tell me the truth, do you want to play Yongzheng?"
Tang Guoqiang squinted his eyes and laughed, and there was a hint in the smile, "Don't hide it, I certainly want to challenge Yongzheng."
It is normal for him to have this idea. Let's not say that Yongzheng is the protagonist.
For the actors, I definitely want to play such a role as Yongzheng.
Zhou Yan looked at Tang Guoqiang, "When President Liu was there, why don't you say?"
"I mentioned it to him."
"What did he say?"
"He just pretended not to hear."
It seems that Liu Wenwu was unwilling to let Tang Guo wall play Yongzheng, and he listened to it quite obviously without hesitation.
In this way, Zhou Yan was curious. If Liu Wenwu had this attitude, how did Tang Guoqiang play the leading role in the previous life?
Could it be that the key person is Hu Mei?
Although Hu Mei may not have much power in casting, if she recommends it, Liu Wenwu cannot completely ignore it.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yan said, "I said to President Liu, I will not interfere with their casting."
Hearing Zhou Yan's words, Tang Guo's wall was a little disappointed, but he nodded, "It's okay, it's okay, I didn't think about going from you to the back door."
Zhou Yan smiled and continued, "But don't worry, the character's affairs may not have been decided yet, and there will be changes later."
"Really?"
"Well, you can just wait." Zhou Yan felt that Hu Mei might recommend Tang Guoqiang, so there was no need for him to tell Liu Wenwu about it now. He could just let nature take its course.
But if there is something wrong in the back, he still has to shoot.
Subjectively, he felt that Tang Guo Wall played Yongzheng's performance very well. It was a pity. Objectively, since the last life has proved that Yongzheng, who played Tang Guo Wall, was welcomed by everyone, then there is no need to replace people.
Although Tang Guoqiang didn't know what kind of changes would happen in the future, he still nodded and said he would wait.
……
More than 8.40 am on March 12th, Hu Mei and Zhang Li came to Zhou Yan Studio according to the address given to them with Liu Wenwu.
"Isn't this an electronic factory?" Zhang Li doubted.
Hu Mei laughed, "This is the electronic factory before, and now it is Zhou Yan's studio. I am also the first time."
"Most of them are Zhou Yan's studio?"
"It should be."
There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!
"This scale is not small." Zhang Li felt.
At this time, the guard saw the two of them standing at the door and came out and asked: "What can you do?"
Zhang Li smiled and said, "Brother, we are here to see Director Zhou."
"Is Ms. Hu and Mr. Zhang?" Men guard asked.
"Yes, yes, I'm Zhang Li, she is Hu Mei."
The name is right, the door guard nodded, "Please in the two positions."
Afterwards, the guard took them both to the TV drama department building and to Liu Heping's office.
Yesterday, the administrative department notified the communication room that a man and a woman would visit this morning, named Zhang Li and Hu Mei respectively. After they arrive, they can be taken directly to Liu Heping's office.
When the two arrived at Liu Heping's office, Zhou Yan and Liu Wenwu were already sitting in the office.
After Liu Wenwu said hello to the two, he also introduced Zhou Yan, "Zhou Dao, this is Hu Meihu, this is Zhang Li and Zhang Dao."
"Director Hu, Director Zhang." Zhou Yan smiled and shook hands with the two of them.
For the first time, Zhang Li saw Zhou Yan's real person, and couldn't help but glance at it. Then he laughed, "I heard that Lao Mouzi said that you look good on TV. When you see it today, what he said is right. "
In fact, praising a man for his good looks when they first met is not a smart way to chat, but as soon as Zhang Li saw Zhou Yan, he did think of what Zhang Yimou had said to him.
The reason why Zhang Yimou asked Zhou Yan to play Chen Feipu was because Zhou Yan could play the flute, and more importantly because Zhou Yan was good-looking and fit the role of Chen Feipu very well.
Zhou Yan smiled, "I haven't seen Director Zhang Yimou for a long time for a long time."
"I haven't seen him for a long time." Zhang Li smiled, "In our generation, he and Chen Kaige were both busy people, and we rarely saw each other."
Zhang Li, Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou and Hu Mei are all students from the same class at Yanjing Film Academy, but Zhang Yimou and Zhang Li majored in photography, while Chen Kaige and Hu Mei majored in directing.
If you just look at their age, it would be hard to think that they are students of the same class.
Hu Mei is only in her thirties, but Zhang Yimou is almost fifty.
At that time, university admissions had just resumed, and the age of the students might be much different.
In fact, not to mention age, if you just talk about his resume, Hu Mei does not seem to be the same generation as Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige.
Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, and Zhang Jianya basically all had their own famous works early on, and they have a lot of works.
As for Hu Mei, all the movies she has filmed are small and transparent, but the TV series "The Wind Lasted", which was filmed for thousands of years, is quite popular.
Zhang Li brought out Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, naturally hoping to get closer to Zhou Yan. Zhou Yan followed his words and said, "I haven't seen Director Zhang for a long time, but I do see Mr. Kai often. Director Hu should know."< br>
Hu Mei smiled and said, "Our factory is not far from here. Whether Director Zhou or Chen Kaige comes over, it is very convenient. To be honest, there was a time when I thought Director Zhou was from our factory."
Zhou Yan laughed and said, "You were not the only one who thought that way during that time."
After the filming of "Farewell My Concubine" started, Zhou Yan went to Yanjing Factory every day for a long time.
Although Hu Mei had little contact with Zhou Yan in the factory, she often saw him.
After a few pleasantries, Liu Wenwu rubbed his hands and said, "Let's talk about it later, let's get down to business now."
Hu Mei nodded, "Yes, yes, let's get down to business first. Mr. Liu asked me a few questions last time. I went back and made serious preparations. I'll just give my answers now."
Liu Wenwu waved his hand, "No hurry, let's talk about "The Wind Last Night" first. This TV series is said to be related to finance, but it is more about romance. Most of the time it describes intrigues and family ethics..."
He told Zhang Li and Hu Mei at this opening. What is the name of this? Don't talk about the "Yongzheng Dynasty". Let's come up with Hu Mei to approve it before?
Zhou Yan was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Liu Wenwu didn't move forward at all, and started with a big move.
It is completely okay to discuss the director's previous work. If you criticize it, of course, Liu Wenwu is just like adults who criticize children. Most people can't accept it at all.
In any case, Hu Mei also mixed the name of the "Fifth Generation Director". The big directors of Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige are all classmates. You Liu Wenwu's cross -border producer is too much. Essence
Moreover, Liu Wenwu is several years younger than Hu Mei, and most people cannot bear to be criticized like this by someone younger than themselves.
However, Zhou Yan's expression of Hu Mei's expression was no different. Although Liu Wenwu said harshly, she was listening seriously.
On the contrary, Zhang Li listened to his face red and his face was not very convincing.
Sure enough, after Liu Wenwu criticized "Last Night Long Wind", Hu Mei didn't speak. Zhang Li spoke first. "President Liu, you have less involved in film and television, I can understand. Regarding the question of" Last Night ", I will follow. You can discuss it. You just said that the theme of this TV series has little to do with financial and economic. This is okay, because it is not a business film, since it is not a business film, you should not make more financial content. Attentive, the content is family ethics. In the content, see ... "
After Zhang Li's long story, Liu Wenwu did not accept losses, followed: "The theme can indeed be ordinary, even old, but when we were filming ..."
Afterwards, the two of them started arguing fiercely.
Zhou Yan, Hu Mei and Liu Heping, like melon-eaters, sat nearby and admired it.
Seeing that Hu Mei was so calm, Zhou Yan couldn't help but sigh. Hu Mei may not have much talent as a director, but she has a really calm mind, which makes her a perfect match for a producer like Liu Wenwu.
Putting it into perspective, if Zhou Yan were in Hu Mei's position today, even if he didn't walk away, he would definitely not continue discussing with Liu Wenwu in a good manner.
In other words, it is impossible for Zhou Yan to cooperate with Liu Wenwu as a director.
Zhou Yan himself is an authoritarian person on the set, and so is Liu Wenwu. It is difficult for two authoritarian people to work well together. (End of chapter)
