Chapter 28 West Shadow
Chapter 28 Xiying
Almost everyone in the village had their blood tested, and only Ma Youtie received the precious panda blood.
Zhang Yongfu still owes the village food money and has not paid it, so Zhang Yongfu's son, played by Li Yu, threatens the villagers.
The human heart is vicious, especially when it comes to treating the weak.
Ma Youtie was once again bound by morality, kidnapped, and started donating blood for free again and again.
Li Yu is a hard-working actor. Although he doesn't have many scenes, he does it all in one shot. Lin Nan knows that he has practiced many times below, and Li Baotian will also give him guidance.
"Click." That's it for today, let's continue tomorrow.
Until now, Lin Nan has had very few NG experiences.
Li Baotian and Jiang Wenli were particularly devoted. They were very optimistic about the script, especially the tragic ending.
After it became clear that Lin Nan would receive overseas prizes, she became even more attentive.
Ken Takakura, who is over 70 years old, handed over his last film to Zhang Yimou. This is the hottest news in the industry recently. Lin Nan heard everyone talking about it on the set.
The crew continues to work and the filming has reached the second half.
Lin Nan's reaction was very intense. He was not very willing to continue studying for graduate school. In terms of test scores, his test scores were a little above average.
"Of course it's good, we were all shocked."
On the desk is an invitation letter from Hua Yi, handwritten and quite delicate.
When Teacher Zhang asked this question, he wanted to slap himself. It would be great if he could get in. He was also thinking about getting something back.
After complaining, he put on his eye mask and prepared to squint for a while before waking up.
"I asked the company to issue an announcement, but I didn't sign it. Lao Zhu, I didn't even sign it, so I told them not to ask."
"Why not? Just use your director's vision to select talented students."
"Are you okay? If so, let me know. If not, I'll go back to the directing department."
"Get ready, let's start the last shot."
Ma Youtie, played by Li Baotian, was determined to build a house by himself. Brick by brick, he slowly built a bungalow for himself and Cao Guiying, and put the words "happy" on it when he got married, hoping that life would get better.
Lin Nan couldn't believe her ears, "Teacher, are you kidding me? I can do that?"
When Lin Nan was on the set, a school teacher called him and asked him about this. Maybe he was trying to trick someone, but he refused.
Lin Nan went to the director's department to take a long vacation and was kept for a while.
Unfortunately, Lin Nan just had a movie that grossed over 100 million yuan, the second one after Zhang Yimou.
Li Baotian smiled and said, "Sit under the award podium and watch."
Jiang Wenli worked very hard and chose a close-up shot. Several people quickly picked her up and brought towels and blankets. It was November and it was still in the northwest, so it was already cold.
"If I plan to make the next film, I will consider it at that time, but if the cost is not high, maybe I will make it myself." Lin Nan didn't die, but he didn't make a promise either.
"I'm afraid it's too late." Lin Nan said.
"It's been a long time since I've been filming like this, and I'm still a little bit stuck." Li Baotian said with a smile after standing up.
"It's really realistic."
Hua Yi also relied on Feng Xiaogang's signature to trick many artists into signing contracts, but Lin Nan found it troublesome.
December 3rd, Monday.
"Teacher Li, you have collaborated with director Zhang Yimou on three films. What do you think of his film "Ride Alone for Thousands of Miles"?" Lin Nan asked during the break.
Lin Nan's "Warmth and Light", Shanghai Film and Television co-invested with him; "Return to Youth" added China Film and Lighting.
To compete on a self-financing basis, Xiying showed signs of falling behind.
The people at Xiying Film were not very determined, and when it came to actors, Lin Nan was relieved. If a new film was released, they could have people audition for it.
In the last shot, Ma Youtie calmly drank the pesticide...
"Return to Youth" will be released in South Korea in a while. Lin Nan estimates that the box office will not be bad. China Film Group is also planning to expand to more Southeast Asian countries.
"Ka, passed."
How can a person die calmly?
In despair, I saw a ray of light, but in the end, this light was extinguished.
Lin Nan shook his head, "I don't know, but at least I have to try."
This time, due to the shooting location, all the equipment was rented from Xiying.
Lin Nan said a few polite words and sent it off.
This month on the set of "Into the Dust", Lin Nan continued to receive congratulatory calls, many of which were from companies or industry insiders she had never dealt with before.
Since light can be cast, why can't Xiying? You are still from your hometown. This is what Xiying thinks.
Jiang Wenli has a strong personality, but is very generous, and has a wide network of contacts in the circle. After this time, the two of them have become friends, especially since Lin Nan is now famous, and it is even more worthy of Jiang Wenli's friendship.
"Director Lin, a lot of people have come over recently, asking the company if they want to sign actors, and they also left some resumes."
Lin Nan's company specially came to the finance department to hand over the equipment, and Lin Nan had a chat with the director.
Lin Nan nodded. This is a spiritual redemption movie after two commercial blockbusters.
"OK."
Lin Nan's words were true. If Jiang Wenli hadn't told her in advance that she could hold her breath, Lin Nan would have called someone to fish her out. She looked like she was unconscious and drowning.
After a month of slow work, it's time to finish.
How many actors signed up for new scenes in the name of Zhang Yimou.
I went back to the company first. The Korean side has settled the copyright for the adaptation of "Return to Youth", and China Film has also awarded Lin Nan's company a proportional amount. The financial report was reported to Lin Nan as soon as possible.
Lin Nan was very touched when he watched Li Baotian's performance.
"So sure?"
The company doesn't have many employees, so Lin Nan likes them to call himself director.
"What about the second thing?"
After confirming this guess, Teacher Zhang's face changed and he suddenly laughed, "The art exam is a trivial matter. I will help you reject the acting department. It's shameful for them to bother our directing department with their affairs."
"There are no new film plans at the moment. I have just completed one. I am not as productive as director Yimou." Lin Nan told the truth.
The teacher said it very well. The test scores are only a parameter to test the mastery of theoretical knowledge, and the actual results are the final result.
The teacher from the 02-level directing department looked at Lin Nan and reacted for a while, "Berlin?"
Lin Nan arrived at school on time. The film school is still the same as before, with many handsome men and beautiful women. If you see someone who looks weird, it must not be the acting department.
As a representative of outstanding students, the list of candidates for postgraduate study was submitted, and the first one was Lin Nan.
"The acting department wants you to be an art exam judge. You are now a business card of the school, especially since you have transferred from the acting department."
"You can make an announcement later. In the short term, the company has no plans to become an artist manager."
The river is not very deep, so the crew specially selected a shallower section, about one meter deep, and two or three people stood not far away, ready to join hands at any time.
During the wedding banquet, the director of the production department came over, and Lin Nan knew that he couldn't just come to have a meal.
Lin Nan went to Xiying as a guest, and the rich historical atmosphere and museums all told of the outstanding contributions she had made.
He received an invitation to the premiere of "A World Without Thieves", which was personally delivered to Lin Nan's company by someone from Huayi.
After the "Return to Youth" celebration party, many people were still looking for him, but Lin Nan had already left the capital by then.
"Okay, Sister Wen Li."
"How come it's too late and you have to join the cast again? Didn't you just finish a movie?"
"If you have a suitable script in the future, come to me, or it will be no less than this one." Jiang Wenli said with a smile. She had to rush back because she had a script appointment.
"Won't the department ask for my opinion?"
Zhou Yang went back to deliver the message.
The closing banquet was prepared and everyone had a great time.
A few hours later, Lin Nan landed at the Capital Airport.
…
Walking in the school, Lin Nan was noticed by many faces. They were all freshmen and sophomores. Some of them came up and asked for their contact information. They were very good at seizing opportunities.
Cao Guiying saw every detail of Ma Youtie's life, and her attachment and trust became deeper and deeper. Although she was frail and sick, she worked hard to help. This was perhaps the most heartwarming life in her life.
Lin Nan greeted other junior students and ignored Zhou Yang.
"Director Lin, is this okay for me?" Jiang Wenli still wanted to joke.
Lin Nan nodded.
Lin Nan got on the plane back to school and worked on the later stage of "Into the Dust" at a company affiliated with China Film.
"It's time for me to go back. After all, I'm still a teacher at the school." Li Baotian also said goodbye to Lin Nan, with Li Yu beside him.
The reasons are very complicated. The talents in the industry are all in the capital and Shanghai, the most famous art schools are also there, and the economy is not comparable. The results can be imagined.
Lin Nan sighed, "Teacher, I'm not lying to you. The drama "Into the Dust" is a realistic rural theme. I plan to take it to the film festival. The time may conflict with the art exam time."
"Hello, Director Lin."
"This subject is what he is good at."
Investing is nothing more than investing.
"Are you sure?"
"Hey, our great director is back for class." Zhou Yang's sinister voice could be heard from far away.
However, the transformation of traditional film studios is very slow. The main reason is that the basic base is there and the ideology is deeply ingrained. The old directors cannot make commercial films. Not everyone is Zhang Yimou. New talents cannot be cultivated. In this regard, they are not as good as private companies.
enterprise.
That was the last choice of a miserable person. They lived with each other, working from sunrise to sunset, using every ounce of strength to support and rely on each other, but fate did not favor them...
"Pass."
Policies have become clearer and clearer, encouraging the film market to flourish. Everyone knows that commercial films will be the mainstream, and box office is king.
"Isn't our school's performance department all about looks?" Lin Nan retorted in a low voice.
"Director Lin."
The scene where Jiang Wenli is dizzy and falls into the river while delivering food indicates that the story is about to end, and suffering still chooses the poor.
The forty-year-old production director did not expect Lin Nan to be so naughty and not like a twenty-year-old at all.
At the end of the story, the nostalgia started again.
"Yes, yes. My classmates in the class just asked me to ask, does your company really not sign people?"
Lin Nan shouted, but Li Baotian still sat there and calmed down for a while before getting up.
Ma Youtie had to go to get blood and work in the fields at the same time. Life became even harder. The vacant house they lived in had to be demolished by the village for a fee, and the owner asked them to pack up and leave quickly.
"You, it's just for outsiders to say this, why did you say it out loud?"
After everyone had almost dispersed, Zhou Yang came up and said, "Now that you are the senior director, your former classmates are no longer in your sight, right?"
"As long as you have this intention, then put everything else aside."
