Chapter 465 So many people!
Chapter 465 There are so many people!
In this world, there is also a folk story called Tang Bohu’s spotting autumn fragrance.
Du Chonglin also likes to read some miscellaneous books, and he once saw this story in a book.
He immediately asked: "Which folk story is your movie adapted from?"
Xu Ye said: "Yes."
After getting the answer, Du Chonglin said nothing, opened the cover and read the contents inside.
Xu Ye was also reading the script at this time. The script he was reading was given to him by Du Chonglin.
This is the script of the movie that Du Chonglin is planning to make.
Du Chonglin is quite confident about the content in this script.
Because this script was co-created by him and a well-known screenwriter in the industry, the two spent a long time together to polish the script.
Du Chonglin now feels that his last sublimation is just like some garbage skits on the Spring Festival Gala, with a sudden "everyone makes dumplings and smashes them together" at the end.
From Du Chonglin's point of view, his story is very good. As long as it is shot well, it can even hit a box office of one billion.
While Xu Ye was reading the script, Du Chonglin almost laughed out loud several times.
The further down he looked, the more Du Chonglin felt something was wrong.
“Compared with Xu Ye’s script, my script is just rubbish.” Du Chonglin sighed in his heart.
After seeing the name, Xu Ye became a little interested. Judging from the name, it was probably a comedy.
Du Chonglin put down the script, looked at Xu Ye, and asked, "Have you finished reading it?"
There are too many nonsensical plots here.
Originally, Du Chonglin thought that his final sublimation was quite good, and there must be a lot of viewers who thought it was great.
But one day you suddenly remember a plot in it, and if you think about it carefully, you will find that there seems to be an ulterior motive in it.
Xu Ye's eyes fell on the cover of the script.
This data is nothing to the famous directors in the film industry, but for Du Chonglin, it is already a big breakthrough.
His story also aims to make everyone laugh, and to achieve a sublimation of the concept at the end.
In the end, Tang Bohu and Qiuxiang were together, but Qiuxiang became no different from his eight original wives.
He doesn’t think so now.
Du Chonglin's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the scene where Tang Bohu and the King of Dui Wang were facing off against each other.
This plot is so exciting just by reading the text. If it were filmed, I can’t even imagine how great it would be.
He really couldn't accept some nonsensical scenes, but when he imagined Tang Bohu in it as Xu Ye, everything made sense.
After he read the entire script, he felt even more emotional.
He was afraid that Du Chonglin would ask him to comment. He was a kind person and was embarrassed to undermine Du Chonglin's self-confidence, so it was better not to say anything.
The name of the script is "This Killer is Very Kind".
As a director, Du Chonglin also has professional habits. When he reads the script, he will think about how to shoot this story if it were him, what kind of shots should be used for this part, and what kind of expression method should be chosen.
But he thought Xu Ye could do it.
There are so many things worth thinking about throughout the movie.
It is difficult for him to describe what kind of comedy Xu Ye is going to make.
After opening it and reading the content for a while, I realized that it is indeed a comedy.
But it’s not the kind of comedy that makes people laugh from beginning to end. It just has comedy elements interspersed in it. The overall story is mainly to make people think.
This is what Xu Ye can do!
"Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" is a comedy, but it is not a simple comedy.
“Looking for a boatman to ride in the boat, the boat sank while sitting, what the **** is this!”
The whole story makes you laugh, from beginning to end. After the movie is over, you will still laugh when you think about the plot inside.
Awkward and stiff.
This is talent.
But he can say that he has never seen such a comedy in the market.
Xu Ye has actually finished reading Du Chonglin's script and is now reading it for the second time.
The same was true when watching "Tang Bo Hu Spots the Fragrance of Autumn", but in many places, he couldn't think of what kind of lens to use to show it to the audience.
Xu Ye said: "I read half of it."
“Two people are competing against each other at the gate of Washington. What are you talking about when you grab a cockroach?”
From his perspective, there is nothing wrong with Lao Du's ability, but he does make mistakes in some parts of the plot, and he just doesn't speak well.
"Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" does not have this feeling.
“Even if this script is placed here, not just anyone can film it.” Du Chonglin sighed in his heart.
Du Chonglin breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Don't read it until you finish it. I just thought of something and feel that my script still needs to be adjusted."
Before Xu Ye could say anything, he went to get the book in Xu Ye's hand.
Du Chonglin felt relieved after receiving the book.
He was really afraid that Xu Ye would see the embarrassing conversation between the main characters at the end. How embarrassing.
With Xu Ye's character, you shouldn't use the lines in it to damage him every day.
If Xu Ye knew what Du Chonglin was thinking, he would definitely clarify it.
Am I, Xu Ye, that kind of person?
I will definitely wait until your movie is released before I hurt you!
I will harm you now. If you change the script, I will lose nothing.
Du Chonglin was afraid that Xu Ye would talk to him about his script, so he directly changed the topic to Xu Ye.
He read the entire script relatively quickly and did not ponder the content in detail.
Even so, there were still several points that impressed him deeply.
Du Chonglin said seriously: "It's hard to find actors for your drama. You came to the Golden Dragon Awards this time to choose actors, right?"
“I do have this idea.” Xu Ye said.
Du Chonglin thought for a while and said: "I was deeply impressed by the role of Mrs. Hua in this film. When I was watching it, I was thinking, if I were to choose an actor, who should play this role? Just in time, I thought of one An actor who is very suitable for the role of Mrs. Hua.”
Xu Ye became interested immediately upon hearing this.
The actor search card has a scanning range. If you want to scan all the actors for the Golden Dragon Awards, you have to run around at the award ceremony.
Xu Ye was running around in the audience while others were presenting awards. Xu Ye could do this.
The most important thing is that there is some waste of search cards.
It can also save time if you can determine a rough range first and then search.
Xu Ye asked curiously: "Who is it?"
“Wu Yongxia.” Du Chonglin said a name.
Xu Ye immediately thought about it.
Wu Yongxia, who is forty-five years old this year, is a veritable actor.
When she debuted, she participated in martial arts dramas.
He is beautiful and can fight. He was very popular that year and won many awards.
Wu Yongxia is not a prolific actor. She basically only releases a work every one or two years.
Her resume is also very impressive and she has won many awards.
Last year, a movie starring her was released. This movie is a period drama. It received a very good response after its release and the box office was also very bright.
Wu Yongxia's wonderful acting skills in this movie raised the entire movie to a new level.
It is being said on the Internet that Wu Yongxia is very likely to win the Golden Dragon Award for Best Actress this year.
If the actress really gets it, as an actress, Wu Yongxia will basically be considered complete.
When Xu Ye was selecting actors before, he didn’t even think about Wu Yongxia.
Mainly because Wu Yongxia has not filmed a martial arts drama in the past ten years or so. In the film and television dramas she participated in, there was no action scene at all, so she was ignored by Xu Ye.
Xu Ye wondered: "Is she in good health?"
In action movies, it’s really hard to watch, and some older people really can’t stand it.
Even though some actresses look young in their forties or fifties, they are aware of the aging of their bodies.
Du Chonglin said: "Are you too confident? Do you really think Wu Yongxia will agree if you submit your script?"
“That’s not certain.” Xu Ye said with a smile.
After the two chatted for a few words, Du Chonglin said, "I'll go and ask you."
After saying that, Director Du took out his cell phone and started making a call.
He didn’t avoid Xu Ye even when he was on the phone. After a while, Du Chonglin put down his cell phone and said, "I heard about it. Wu Yongxia is in our hotel. She is not busy right now. Let's go and have a chat."
Xu Ye naturally would not refuse.
On the other side, in the hotel room, Wu Yongxia was wearing a loose white training suit and sitting on the sofa to rest.
Unlike other female stars in the industry, Wu Yongxia does not pursue youthful appearance to the extreme.
Her face has some wrinkles that would be expected of someone in their forties, but overall she looks relatively healthy.
This has something to do with her year-round practice of martial arts and health care.
She made her debut by participating in martial arts dramas, but in recent years, martial arts dramas have become less popular. TV dramas have become fairy puppet dramas, ancient puppet dramas, and there are not many movies with related themes.
This is determined by the overall market environment.
It's fine for an actor to star in an action movie, but it's hard for an actress of her age to find a suitable script.
Although she has been transforming over the past ten years, the transformation has obviously been successful.
Actually, Wu Yongxia still really wants to act in action scenes, and it might have something to do with martial arts.
Her basic skills have not fallen behind.
At this time, her assistant brought Xu Ye and Du Chonglin in.
After introducing each other, Wu Yongxia said with a smile: "You two sit down first."
Wu Yongxia knows Xu Ye well. What impressed her most about Xu Ye was the last fight scene in "The One-Armed Sword".
It can be said that if Xu Ye did not participate, the box office of Du Chonglin's movie was destined to be a flop.
Xu Ye single-handedly made the entire movie a small profit, which is pretty good.
Wu Yongxia admires Xu Ye very much for being the most capable among young actors.
Xu Ye opened an actor search card after coming in. After this card was opened, it was automatically locked on Wu Yongxia.
I have to say that Wu Yongxia’s temperament does match Mrs. Hua’s.
After confirming that Wu Yongxia met Mrs. Hua's requirements, Xu Ye took another character check sticker and posted it while communicating with Wu Yongxia.
The character value is eighty-five, no problem.
The reason why he wanted to check the character was that Xu Ye was mainly worried that something might happen to the actors in the crew.
It's okay if an actor gets into an accident, but if the movie can't be released because of an actor's accident, it would be a huge loss.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xu Ye got straight to the point: "Teacher Wu, I would like to invite you to star in my movie."
After saying that, Xu Ye directly put the script on the table.
“Don’t rush to give me an answer. You can wait until you finish reading the script.”
The opening ceremony of the Golden Dragon Awards is about to begin, and Xu Ye estimates that Wu Yongxia won’t have time to read the entire script.
Wu Yongxia still had a kind smile on her face: "Okay, then wait until I finish reading."
During the entire communication process, Wu Yongxia was also observing Xu Ye.
She has also heard rumors on the Internet that Xu Ye is mentally ill.
But these days, isn’t it popular among young celebrities to create characters?
People are people, and persona is persona.
My character is an anti-smoking ambassador, but I can smoke.
My character is that of a heroine who is dedicated to her career, but I can change my boyfriend every month.
Wu Yongxia didn’t take it seriously. She estimated that Xu Ye was also a persona created by the company.
This is a face-to-face chat, Xu Ye is not normal.
As soon as she thought of this, she saw Xu Ye take out a cutlery box from his pocket and take out a straw from the cutlery box.
Xu Ye inserted the straw into the water glass in front of him, the whole action was very elegant.
Just when Wu Yongxia thought Xu Ye was going to drink water through a straw, Xu Ye took out a spoon again.
Then Wu Yongxia saw Xu Ye stirring the boiled water in the cup with a straw and drinking the water with a spoon.
Wu Yongxia’s expression changed immediately.
Are you sick?
Do you want to stir this boiled water?
You drink water with a spoon even if you stir it, but you don’t have a cup or something?
Wu Yongxia couldn't hold it back in the end, looked at Du Chonglin and asked, "Is Xu Ye always like this?"
Du Chonglin said with a smile: "It's not always like this."
Hearing this, Wu Yongxia's expression softened a little.
The next second, Du Chonglin's words reached her ears.
“He’s usually more serious than this.”
Wu Yongxia was speechless.
Xu Ye and Du Chonglin sat here for a while and then left.
They were also going to change clothes and prepare to go to the film festival.
After they left, Wu Yongxia picked up the script on the table.
The name of the script immediately caught her attention.
“Tang Bohu lights the fragrance of autumn, is this a costume drama?”
Wu Yongxia originally had no hope for this script. In her opinion, it was impossible for an actress to have a martial arts scene in the script that Xu Ye came up with.
Even in costume sitcoms like "Wulin Gaiden", the fighting elements are omitted.
As for "Crazy", it is directly an anti-black criminal investigation drama.
The script Xu Ye came up with was definitely not what she wanted.
Unexpectedly, after flipping through a few pages, Wu Yongxia was attracted by the plot inside.
This is the first time she has seen this nonsensical comedy style.
Unlike Du Chonglin, Wu Yongxia really likes the plot in it, and she can even put herself into it.
As soon as she saw Tang Bohu entering Washington, her assistant said: "Sister Xia, it's time to change clothes and put on makeup."
Wu Yongxia was feeling itchy now, but she couldn't continue reading, so she simply put the script in her bag. She would take time to read it later.
At the same time, many guests attending the Golden Dragon Film Festival are preparing.
Some netizens who pay more attention to the film festival also flocked to the live broadcast room of the Golden Dragon Awards.
“Where is Xu Ye? Is Xu Ye the dog thief here?”
“Who is there? Do me a favor and put this three-meter-long knife on Xu Ye’s neck!”
“By the way, does the dean have a chance to win the award this time?”
“There’s definitely no chance. Didn’t Zhang Qing also act in his first movie last year? He was nominated for The Emperor and his performance in the movie was pretty good.”
In the live broadcast room's barrage, the patients at Huohua Hospital were already chatting.
No one cares whether Xu Ye can win the award or not.
It’s been a year now, and Xu Ye has done everything but not much filming.
The box office and reputation of "The One-Armed Sword" were not ranked high in the film industry last year, so it was impossible to win an award.
Unless Xu Ye spends money to operate it, as we all know, Xu Ye will not do such a thing.
For the patients, it is enough to see Xu Ye.
At the opening ceremony of the Golden Dragon Film Festival, a large group of reporters were already waiting on both sides of the red carpet.
The goal of this group of reporters today is to interview Xu Ye.
Today, both Xu Ye and Lin Shuo came to the film festival, and the Internet has already been abuzz.
Entertainment journalists must look for opportunities to make big news.
As stars appeared one after another, it was Xu Ye’s turn soon.
The organizer arranged for the crew of "One-Armed Sword" to appear in a relatively early order.
When Xu Ye and his team appeared, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became different, even a bit sensational.
Xu Ye is a newcomer in the film industry, but he also has other identities.
After Xu Ye stood still, a group of reporters immediately surrounded him.
“Xu Ye, do you have any special feelings about coming to the Golden Dragon Film Festival this time?” a reporter asked.
This question is a routine question, and it depends on how Xu Ye answers it.
The answers from most celebrities are quite satisfactory, saying something like "it's an honor".
Other celebrities they interviewed before also said the same thing.
But when they finished asking, they saw Xu Ye saying happily: "There are so many people."
A group of reporters were immediately stunned.
I asked you how you felt, and you said there were so many people?
There is something wrong with you!
