Chapter 142 Huang Wen
The so-called experimental movie refers to the filming of the blind Jiba. .
The director was in a great mood and was very excited...
"Grass! You kid are so good at supporting people!"
Wang Shuo laughed and scolded.
“…”
Xu Hui smiled and didn't say anything.
It was not because Wang Shuo swears, and he thought there was anything wrong with it. In fact, people in Beijing often use the word Ya when chatting.
Wang Shuo is considered a group favorite in the entire Beijing circle, a typical literati, and his laughter and scolding are written on his face...
Xu Hui can talk to these people together, the most important thing is that he is also a person who travels all over the world by his mouth!
Feng Xiaogang wrote a short story in "I Dedicate Your Youth to You". When he and Wang Shuo were young, they often thought about competing and praising people...
It's a bit like Xu Hui fooling Wu Jing...
...
Xu Hui is a fan of Feng Xiaogang, but he is definitely not a big fan. Xu Hui doesn’t appreciate his works very much.
For example, "Night Banquet" and "If You Are the One" feel insincere, and "Private Customization" feels even more rough, but in terms of the overall quality of his past works and his struggle in the film industry, he deserves the respect of all filmmakers. Who can guarantee that his works will always go up and down? There will always be ups and downs. You cannot deny him completely because of temporary troughs.
Although his major dramas are not perfect, they are all worth remembering and thought-provoking, proving his inner feelings.
Originally, Xu Hui was a young director. Since entering the film and television industry, he has deeply felt the difficulties. Writing scripts, finding resources, and opening up channels is extremely laborious. It is far from being criticized or complained.
Like all literary and artistic workers born in the 1950s, Feng Xiaogang has a natural sense of social responsibility and mission.
Romance is not their ideal, it is just to criticize current problems.
The problem is here,
When you want to be a director with "feelings", it is not because you can't let go of what you have, but you can do it with a knot in your heart. You can say concise and meaningful words such as "If you never forget, there will be a resounding sound". This is the embodiment of feelings.
What is sentiment?
It’s either that I’m just feeling!
It has to be proved by the works, and the audience's recognition is true.
From this perspective, Feng Xiaogang is actually in a very embarrassing position. His age, identity, business positioning, auxiliary team and personal ability do not allow him to do too much transformation efforts, but he still wants to try it. He is as easeless as Kurosawa Akira and makes such a gorgeous and philosophical movie as "Nine Dreams", but he really can't hold on to this huge dream.
But no matter what, such a filmmaker is still worthy of respect!
Feng Xiaogang can live a better and easier life, filming comedy that the public likes all the way, without asking for box office records, as long as he can give an explanation to investors. But he doesn't, with the vitiligo he gets tired, the pressure of the rise and fall of Huayi stocks, and the infamous of all kinds of "pretending to be awesome", he makes the movie he wants.
He shouted loudly in public for the sake of the Chinese film rating system and censorship system. This is an offensive thing. He did it without hesitation. He was already a vested stakeholder, but he still dared to stand out. If it were you, would you dare?
Just talking about subject matter and scale, from "1942" and "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" in recent years to "Youth", he has continuously broadened the review standards of subject matter. After he filmed many subject matters, people in this type gradually dared to shoot. Basically, it was up to one's own efforts to refresh the upper limit of many standards.
Knowing that his ability is limited, he is trying his best to move every possible gear to find a way out for the sake of how far Chinese films can go. For those who dare to try this and have a responsibility, we can criticize his works or talk about his character. However, when it comes to his contribution to Chinese films, he is definitely qualified to be among the top directors!
I guess I must be very envious of Jiang Wen in my heart. Why did he shoot so much money-losing goods? After taking a film, a bunch of people sent the money to the front and said: Dad, you have fun.
Of course, Feng Xiaogang has a lot of bad habits: there are problems with the expression of values in movies; he especially likes to always take himself too seriously; even if he does good deeds, he still always uses an attitude of looking down on everyone;
Especially the publicity of stumble-up, this is the most speechless.
...
After saying goodbye to a few old men, Xu Hui and Huang Wen got into a taxi.
"Let's go and have a walk?"
"OK!"
Huang Wen didn't say anything all night, and he could tell that he had something to do.
A taxi parked on a road near the hotel.
The two walked slowly along the late night in the capital.
Beijing is an international metropolis. Its nightlife is naturally rich and colorful. The bars nearby are everywhere, and they are filled with ordinary office workers who are worried about work during the day and come to buy drunk at night.
Nightclubs are filled with young men and women, rubbing and seeking each other.
Xu Hui might have liked that kind of place when he was young, but now he can't play with it!
And that kind of place is not suitable for chatting, but fortunately there is a park nearby.
The cold air in Siberia is mixed with pm2.5, Chinese characteristics!
The weather is good, and there are not many people in this park. Huang Wen took out a cigarette, stood by the roadside, and watched the woods blown by the wind in the night making a rustling sound.
"Brother Wen?"
Xu Hui looked at him with a little curiousness.
What? Is this going to transform?
"I'm going to leave Huiwen!"
A critical strike is a opening!
After waving his hand, Huang Wen continued: "I am still suitable to be a broker when setting up an agency!"
"…Why?"
Xu Hui was silent for a few seconds and asked.
"Huiwen doesn't need me anymore..." Huang Wen smiled self-deprecatingly: "A lot of things have happened this year, and I am a person who can't rest!"
"Think about it?"
"Well, I've thought about it." Huang Wen nodded: "Two months ago, I met Xiaoshuang and suddenly felt very sorry for others. I plan to sign her in to find a few promising newcomers to slowly cultivate..."
"Xiao Shuang? How is she now?"
A little dazed, it's been almost two years...
Huang Wen nodded: "It's pretty good. She has a good relationship with Mango TV. All the TV series she starred in can be broadcast on Mango TV!"
"It's good..."
After all, it was Paohui's first star of tomorrow after he came to China.
After dreaming at midnight, you can still feel the clear fragrance of virginity...
"Brother Wen, the agency is affiliated with Huiwen, so there is no need to start a new business..."
Huang Wen refused: "Forget it, Huiwen has his own agency. What's the point of setting up another one?"
"…That…"
"Don't worry, I won't leave completely. Don't forget that I still have 6% of Huiwen's shares!"
Xu Hui: "However, it is difficult to find promising newcomers. With me as an ex, you may find it difficult to find a better one!"
People cannot forget their roots.
Without Huang Wen or changing to an obedient agent, Xu Hui could not have been so smooth at the beginning.
Think about it, an idol suddenly transformed into a director, is it possible?
"By the way, Brother Wen, SM. There is an idol team called exo, and there are four Chinese members. They are all top-notch in their popularity. You can choose one to train them."
"You also need to say that I have already contacted the man named Lu Han!"
