Chapter 493 Brother-Sister Love


The set of "The Banquet".

In the next few days, Feng Xiaogang was very depressed.

Sure enough, news came from Wang Zhonglei’s end that there was a problem with the North American copyright of the film.

If the film does not make money, then the bonus promised to Director Feng will definitely be used up.

More importantly, after Harvey and Hua Yi reached a verbal agreement, the Wang brothers immediately released the news in order to create hype.

8 million US dollars in royalties!

What encouraging news.

It proves that even white men like our movie, so Chinese audiences must not watch it obediently?

As a result, I am now being held back by my own propaganda.

Looking for other European and American film producers?

Immediately let you know how ruthless the white man will be when he begs you!

None of those companies quoted more than one million US dollars, and they were all dragon-slaying knives.

That’s it, people still like to ignore it.

Make Xiao Wang angry!

If Huo Siyan wasn't still in the hospital recuperating, she would have been called to the lighthouse to increase her strength.

Feng Xiaogang and Wang Zhonglei were worried, but Zhang Yuan didn't feel the same at all, and was even a little happy.

Because the copyright of "The Night Banquet" did not sell well, Hua Yi's cash flow will be tight.

When his cash flow is tight, it will free up more room for Zhang Yuan to operate.

At the same time, he also knew very well that whether it was "Mo Gong" or "The Night Banquet", Hua Yi would not be hurt even if he suffered a loss.

They are risking their lives to make big productions, but in fact they are just to prepare financial reports for the listing of the company.

As for financial reporting, anyone who knows it can understand it. There are so many tricks in it, and it can be said that everything is dead or alive.

Just like LeTV at the same time.

In order to go public, this company directly converted its R&D investment into assets in its financial reports.

The company's annual revenue is 100 million, and its R&D investment is 200 million. Logically speaking, it should be losing 100 million.

But Boss Jia was able to increase his assets by 300 million, and his financial reports were red.

I mean, no one will check the accounts?

We all eat at the same table, who checks who?

The worst possible outcome is three drinks as a penalty.

PwC even patted its chest when it audited Evergrande’s accounts.

If that doesn't work, you can also turn into a BBK reading machine, "you won't know where to click".

Things like fire dragons burning down warehouses happened frequently in history.

There is a famous saying in the capital circle, which is "if it doesn't go public, the company will go bankrupt."

This is one of the reasons why the A-share market has become a leek field.

Now Zhang Yuan knows that all he needs to do is be a good actor.

There will naturally be a group of stakeholders worrying about the Wang brothers regarding the appreciation of Huayi's equity.

In front of the camera, Zhang Yuan held Zhou Xun, who was about to fall to the ground, with one arm.

The scene being filmed now is the highlight of the show, the night banquet.

All the protagonists gather together and end up dead and wounded.

Queen Wan'er hid poison in her fingernails and secretly put it into the emperor's wine glass.

The father and son Yin Taichang and Yin Falcon figured out that the queen planned to poison the emperor, so they followed through on the plan of the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind.

He quenched the poison on the sword in advance, planning to rise up after the queen poisoned the emperor, kill the queen, and then make his family a great treasure in the name of revenge for the emperor.

Unfortunately, neither the queen nor Yin Taichang and his son expected that Yin Taichang's daughter Qingnv suddenly appeared at this time and wanted to sing and dance.

The emperor did not know that the wine was poisonous, so he gave the wine to Qingnu.

After singing a Yue song, the young girl vomited blood and fell to the ground.

The emperor also knew that the queen planned to poison him.

Generally speaking, in the drama "The Night Banquet", the young girl is the biggest troublemaker. Several of the queen's plans were disrupted by this love-minded fool.

But the weird thing is that after learning that the queen wanted to poison him, the emperor, played by Uncle Ge, drank the remaining poisoned wine and committed suicide...

From the script, Everyone thought that the emperor who came to power by killing murderers, kidnapped his sister-in-law, and even killed the prince was a tyrant.

I didn’t expect that he is the biggest love brain!

After knowing that Wan'er didn't love him and wanted to kill him, she became desperate.

This kind of character design and plot are very Western and very Shakespearean.

But it obviously does not meet the aesthetics of Chinese audiences.

For the Chinese people, the emperor can be decisive in killing, even murderous, harsh, and cruel, but it must not be sentimental.

Because dissoluteness is one of China's worst evaluations of an emperor.

What Zhang Yuan and Zhou Xun are performing now is the scene where the young girl's hair is poisoned and the prince who is hiding among the singers appears, holding her arms around her who is about to die and crying.

Both were wearing plain white clothes.

Zhou Xun’s face was white, and the blood flowing from his mouth was even more vivid.

Zhang Yuan gently held up the back of her head and saw that Zhou Xun not only did not show pain because of his death, but instead showed a miserable smile, like a feather caressing the shell of her ear, and whispered softly Say the lines.

When we were dubbing the lyrics before filming started, the description of her current state in the script was just four words, "Qi like a gossamer", and then it disappeared.

Zhang Yuan is still discussing with her what state we should maintain for a while, how to behave, and what emotions to use.

But the old lady was holding a cigarette in her mouth and blowing out the smoke as she spoke.

“How do you show it.”

“I just pretend to be dead.”

Ask again, “How do you look like you’re going to die?”

Don’t ask, just ask based on your feelings.

Zhang Yuan felt very depressed at the time.

I feel like this person is not easy to communicate with and is not serious about the drama.

Because when I played with Zhang Ziyi before, the two of them would discuss it for a long time before starting filming.

I wish I could explain the angle and strength of each movement clearly.

When Zhou Xun arrived, he just said "just rely on feeling" and Zhang Yuan couldn't handle it.

But now that filming starts, damn!

How come her feeling is so accurate!

Qingnv is a love brain. Even if she is about to die, she will still consider the prince's feelings instead of herself.

Even if you are going to die, you must smile at the prince and show your best side.

“Your Highness.”

"Are you still lonely now?"

Looking at this line, you vomited blood, and you are still concerned about whether the prince is lonely.

Such a woman naturally cannot be as violent and grief-stricken as when Empress Wan died.

Looking at Zhou Xun in front of him, Zhang Yuan finally knew what a talented player was.

I didn’t have a few plans, so I just decided on the role with “what I felt”.

"That's right, this real person also has a bit of a love brain, and he usually talks and acts carelessly. It should be easy to sympathize with this character." Zhang Yuan thought to himself.

“She does have talent, otherwise she would not have become a top actress as a non-professional.”

“But I feel that this thing cannot be possessed for a lifetime.”

“So when she acts, she is actually very selective in her roles, and she also eats very well.”

It’s like a basketball player with hot hands, shooting forward, backward, under the crotch, and shooting with eyes closed. , the ball goes hollow into the basket.

But what if one day my hands don’t feel warm anymore?

Obviously the same shooting method, but the ball missed.

Perhaps, this is the transformation process from "Ci of Daming Palace" to "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace"...

The opponent is in such a hot state that Zhang Yuan can easily bring emotions into it.

"Uh..." His breathing was trembling, and tears were in his eyes, but they did not fall.

Not to hold back, but because he was afraid that his tears would stain Qingnv's face.

"What a young girl..."

Zhou Xun glanced at Zhang Yuan one last time, his eyes flashed with the last light, and then he softened, his face turned to the side, and his breath was full none.

Zhang Yuan then hugged the other person into his arms and pressed the other person's cheek tightly to his shoulder.

At this moment, tears fell from his face like a fountain.

Zhou Xun, on the other hand, relaxed his whole body, letting Zhang Yuan hold it in his arms like a rag doll, following the other person's breathing, trembling, and gently swaying together.

"Stuck!" Feng Xiaogang shouted: "Very good!"

"Huh..." Zhang Yuan took a breath and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

It’s really tiring to cooperate with people who have hot hands.

He also had to mobilize all his emotions to match it, otherwise if his breath was weak, the scene would immediately become imbalanced between yin and yang.

"I just felt your love for Qingnv." When the two came to the side to rest, Zhou Xun, whose mouth was bright red, said to him.

"Thank you." Zhang Yuan nodded.

After Qingnu died, Yin Falcon, the elder brother, also rushed forward immediately.

In front of the camera of the next scene, Huang Xiaoming ran all the way, rushing from the seats on the side to the stage used for kabuki performances.

Push Zhang Yuan away and snatch his sister Qingnv from his hands.

Different from Zhang Yuan's movements just now, his movements were tight yet soft.

Brother Xiao Ming really used all his strength to hold Zhou Xun firmly in his arms.

"Uh..." After a while of pondering like an old cow, Xiao Ming looked up to the sky and sighed.

Zhang Yuan tried hard to keep his expression tight. After all, he was also in front of the camera. But Brother Xiao Ming's low sigh just now was not like the mournful cry after the death of a loved one.

It's more like the muffled grunt you make when you strain on the toilet after being constipated for ten days.

In general, it’s just too much force.

This seems to be a common problem with Huang Xiaoming’s performances.

“Stuck!”

Director Feng waved his hand to stop: “Xiao Ming, hold back a little.”

"Don't overdo it."

"Oh..." Huang Xiaoming bit his lip and responded.

“You’re hurting me so much!” As soon as Huang Xiaoming let go, Zhou Xun also rubbed his shoulders and complained.

"Can you be gentler when you hug me?"

"You are playing my brother, not my enemy."

"Sorry..." Huang Xiaoming scratched his head.

Zhang Yuan performed extremely well in the last game, and he also wanted to perform well.

The stronger the desire to win or lose, the more distracting thoughts will be in the mind during the actual performance, which will actually affect the performance.

“There is more.” Brother Xun is still typing.

“When Zhang Yuan hugged me just now, I felt love.”

"But when you hugged me, I didn't feel your love for me."

Zhou Xun's feelings are indeed more sensitive than those of ordinary actors.

Huang Xiaoming:...

Aren't you saying to his face that I am inferior to him...

"We are brothers and sisters." Leader Huang was dissatisfied and hurriedly explained: "What about brothers and sisters? Can you have the feeling of love between a young girl and a prince?”

"But Yin Xun clearly loves young girls." Zhou Xun argued.

“We are brothers and sisters!” Huang Xiaoming emphasized again.

“But according to the lines in the script, Yin Xuan obviously loves his younger sister Qingnv more than his brother and sister.”

“I feel it.” Brother Xun stared with big eyes. to each other.

“Do you feel wrong?”

"Uh... Actually, I also think that Yin Xuan's feelings for Qingnv surpass those of brother and sister, but they are just very subtle." Zhang Yuan also added.

"Look, Zhang Yuan agrees with me, one to two." Brother Xun proudly grabbed Zhang Yuan's shoulders: "You must be wrong."
< br>Poof!

Huang Xiaoming felt like he had been stabbed in the chest.

The feelings at the dinner party that night came to mind again.

"What are you talking about?"

International Chapter also came over.

Brother Xun told the story.

"I also think Yin Xuan's feelings for Qingnv are unusual." Zhang Ziyi nodded.

Poof!

Huang Xiaoming felt like he had been stabbed again.

"But Xiao Ming said no." Zhou Xun still argued.

"Teacher Ma!" Zhang Ziyi raised her hand and waved. Seeing that everyone had different opinions, she called the "old mage" Ma Jingwu over.

"From my point of view." After knowing the question, Teacher Ma replied rigorously: "My character Yin Taichang, first of all, loves his daughter very much."

"I have loved my daughter since childhood. Qingnu.”

"And Yin Falcon, the son, followed his father and doted on his younger sister."

"Look, what I said is that Yin Falcon and Qingnv are brother and sister." Huang Xiaoming breathed a long sigh of relief and said quickly.

"But!"

Huang Xiaoming:...

"I think Yin Taichang discovered that Yin Xuan's feelings for Qingnv have slightly surpassed the love between brother and sister, but Yin Taichang Chengfu is extremely Deep, so it is not broken.”

"Furthermore, the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms was a special period in Chinese history when human relations were depleted and absurdity arose. This kind of brother-sister relationship is actually not surprising in this special era." Zhang Yuan looked at Teacher Ma.

“Yes, I think so too.”

Poof!

Huang Xiaoming felt that he had been stabbed again. The Nortel professor stopped talking to me, a Nortel student.

"Director Feng." In order to confirm the relationship between the characters, Zhang Ziyi was called over by Feng Xiaogang.

"Oh, you can all see it." Director Feng was a little pleased after hearing this: "This is a hidden line between the script and the movie."

"I deliberately made the screenwriter's writing very vague."
< br>"You can see this, it shows that everyone has studied the script very deeply."

After being recognized by the acting director, everyone smiled and nodded.

But the output master Zhou Xun raised his hand and pointed.

"Xiao Ming didn't see it."

Poof! ! !

Not only can it deal damage, but it can also do last-ditch damage...

Am I the only one who co-wrote the entire crew who doesn’t know about this?

The corners of Huang Xiaoming's mouth twitched, as if he was about to have a stroke.

"Everyone has different understandings. Brother Xiao Ming believes that there is no special brother-sister relationship, so he acts like this."

"It just suits the character Yin Xuan who is unwilling to admit that he has feelings for his sister that go beyond family affection."

Zhang Yuanyuan and Huang Xiaoming's face turned green and dark, so he quickly helped him make up for it.

【Received a thank you from Huang Xiaoming, confidence +1! 】

"Yes, Xiao Ming must have this feeling of not admitting and not knowing." Director Feng also said.

Huang Xiaoming felt a little more comfortable when he saw Zhang Yuan helping him resolve his embarrassment.

But my heart sank again when I thought that I couldn't act like the other person and had to have someone help me talk.

It’s so uncomfortable!

When everyone dispersed, Ma Jingwu saw that his expression was wrong, so he pulled him to chat for a few words.

“Feeling uncomfortable?”

"Yeah."

"You didn't do it well yourself. You didn't read the script thoroughly. What's wrong with that?" Teacher Ma said bluntly.

“Have you seen Hamlet?” Teacher Ma asked again.

"No..." Huang Xiaoming whispered back timidly.

“At the study meeting before the filming started, Zhang Yuan said that he watched "Hamlet" specifically because it was the prototype of this film."

"It's been filming for a long time, and you don't want to see it."

Huang Xiaoming has been getting tired of Hu Ke recently. They talk on the phone every night, and there is no time to read.

"Maybe someone else understands the script better than you and can act better than you."

"You have to work hard, you know?" Teacher Ma said angrily.

“Don’t embarrass us Nortel.”

Huang Xiaoming felt uncomfortable all over, and thought about buying books as soon as he got off work.

Teacher Ma didn’t care about him until he finished speaking, then he thought about it.

Zhang Yuan is so talented, but he has no academic qualifications.

How about I go and win over him and bring him to Nortel to get a diploma.

With his development and ability, with this layer of skin, he must take care of our future compatriots from Nortel.

Although Ma Jingwu is retired, he is still very well-connected on the Nortel campus.

Just do it if you think of it.

After the show, I took Zhang Yuan to talk about school.

Zhang Yuan was a little dumbfounded.

How can I have time to go to class!

I am on the rise of my career. If I suddenly stop filming and go to class, all my previous efforts will be wasted!

Competition in the entertainment industry is fierce. If you don't advance, you will retreat. If you don't produce a work in two or three years, you won't find this person.

If he hadn't known that Mr. Ma was a nice person, he would have doubted whether the other person was trying to harm him.

And if I go to Nortel to study, Liu Qianqian will go crazy with joy.

She had to call me "junior, junior fellow" all day long, and she would definitely force me to call her "senpai".

Xiao Longnu was able to take advantage of her seniority.

But I can’t refute Teacher Ma’s kindness and face.

Zhang Yuan tactfully said that he would consider it, but he has been too busy recently.

The two left the set, talking as they walked, all the way to the hotel.

But he didn’t know that a pure white Jinbei van was parked behind a bush a hundred or so meters away.

The car window was lowered, and a telescope was quietly stretched out, silently observing Zhang Yuan's direction.

After a long time, until Zhang Yuan left the blind spot, the man in the car put down his binoculars and said angrily to the rest of the people in the car.

“There are too many people in the crew, so it’s hard to start.”

“Just wait a little longer.”

“Okay.” Another person replied: “There is always this When the boy is alone.”

"Keep an eye on him."

"I know..."

After that, the vehicle started and drove away... (End of this chapter)
