Entertainment Empire System

Ye Ming knew that Director Li Yu would definitely react, but he didn't expect the reaction to be so fast.

Here I just let out the news, and over there I have asked someone to inquire about this matter.

But Ye Ming was not polite at all and shouted back directly. To be honest, Ye Ming himself and Li Yu have also worked together, and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is a very good start.

But Ye Ming couldn't stand some of Li Yu's personal behaviors, he was yellow-skinned and white-hearted.

Anyway, no matter what it is, Li Yu regards himself wholeheartedly as a Hollywood director, rather than as a Chinese director, which Ye Ming can't stand.

Art has no borders, but artists always have their own country, right? No matter how high Li Yu's artistic achievements were, Ye Ming couldn't tolerate him.

The princess called just now, and she didn't wait for half an hour. Fa Ge called and followed her.

Fa Ge is regarded as a veteran in the entertainment industry. He has good acting skills, good character, and both virtue and art. Basically, he is an old artist like Fa Ge.

As for the pomp and circumstance, according to Fa Ge's status, it's not a big deal to be pompous.

As for the grudge between Fa Ge and Zhang Weiping when he and Zhang Weiping collaborated on Mancheng Jinjia, in fact, based on Zhang Weiping's character, I personally believe that Fa Ge acted in accordance with the contract.

No matter how high Fa Ge's requirements are, as long as you sign the contract, it means that you affirm the conditions proposed by Fa Ge.

As for saying that Brother Fa will be more demanding later, this is a bit too much.

If you do things according to the contract, what are you doing already?

Later, Fa Ge filmed Let the Bullets Fly and Macau. These films also collaborated with big-name directors and actors, but the results were not reported as being a big-name act.

Therefore, it is estimated that this is Zhang Weiping's own hype plan.

Anyway, basically speaking, apart from Uncle Da, artists and directors in the entertainment industry all think that Brother Fa has a good temper and good acting skills.

As for the matter between you and Uncle Da, that is a matter of benevolence and wisdom.

It’s hard to say who was right and who was wrong about what happened between the two brothers. Fa Ge and Ye Ming collaborated on Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which can be regarded as a milestone movie in Chinese films.

Precisely because they had cooperated before, the two of them had a good relationship. Therefore, Fa Ge exchanged a few words directly and said: "Ye Ming, there is one thing. Director Li just asked me about your feelings about his lust and caution." There is a misunderstanding, it is said that the crew of Lust, Caution cannot choose actresses from the mainland and Hong Kong, otherwise you will block this movie, I wonder if this is the case?"

Brother Fa, this is a skill of speaking. In fact, he was basically certain that Ye Ming had said such words 100%, otherwise, Li Yu would not have said such words to him casually.

But Fa Ge did not directly say that it was Ye Ming who said it, but asked like an old friend if this happened.

This is the actor's acting skills. Anyway, it is to give both parties a step down. No matter what happens, neither party will be offended.

Ye Ming, however, was not ambiguous at all and said directly: "I knew Director Li would definitely call you, Brother Fa, you may not understand this matter.

What kind of movie does Director Li plan to make this time? "

At this time, what Ye Ming didn't expect was that Fa Ge immediately said: "What a coincidence, I really know that this is a novel by Zhang Ailing, Lust, Caution. He also approached me and hoped that I would be the starring role." , I later pushed him away."

This made Ye Ming a little surprised. The movie "Lust, Caution" actually said that he had found Brother Fa. There was no report in the entertainment industry about this?

Therefore, Ye Ming immediately said: "Director Li came to see you?

There is no news of this kind in the entertainment industry. It is just that Liang Chaowei is promoted as the leading actor in this drama? "Fa Ge said with a smile: "Director Li was the first to contact me, hoping that I could consider performing this role, but in the end I felt that it was not suitable for my style, so I turned it down.

And I also made an agreement with Director Li. Since this matter has not been achieved through cooperation, we should not hype it up. I don't want this kind of hype news to happen. "

Although Li Yu is an international director, Chow Yun-fat is actually also an international star. There are only a few Chinese celebrities who have a good job in Hollywood.

Of course, he may not be as successful in Hollywood as Cheng Long and Li Lianjie, but he is also one of the few celebrities who is successful in Hollywood.

At this point, he is really qualified to say such things. Even if it's Li Yu, he still has to consider Fa Ge's opinion.

On this point, Fa Ge said that he doesn't want to create hype, so the crew of Lust, Caution will naturally not use this news to create hype.

Therefore, not many people in the entertainment industry know that in fact, the first male lead found in the movie Lust, Caution was Fa Ge. It is just that Fa Ge was turned down in the end, so Liang Chaowei was replaced.

Here, Tang Wei was finally chosen to play the heroine, but because of Ye Ming's presence, it was definitely impossible to succeed.

Ye Ming replied with a smile: "Brother Fa, you may not know some of the detailed contents. You know the name of the movie, but Director Li definitely didn't tell you the specific contents in detail.

Actually, I also heard that Director Li planned to shoot this movie according to the rhythm of a small movie.

He felt that the actor Tang Wei from our company was more in line with the temperament of the heroine in it, so he thought of making it into a short movie. Xiangjiang has a lot of talents here, and Director Li has also consulted a lot of people?

In fact, these were all explained directly to Tang Wei.

Therefore, when Director Li invited Tang Wei for the first time, Tang Wei directly refused.

Otherwise, at this time, you would think that I was unconscious at the time, Huihuang Film and Television also had no backbone, and was controlled by that bastard Eight-Power Allied Forces-like management team. Tang Wei, a small mainland first-line actor, was eager to film Director Li Why would she refuse such a play from a major international director? She certainly had her own reasons, right? "

Fa Ge was silent for a while, a little movie, this is also a feature of Xiangjiang.

Why do you think Xiangjiang movies once swept the world? Of course the feature films must be of excellent quality.

When Xiangjiang Cinema was in its glory days, talents such as actors, directors, martial arts instructors, etc. were all world-class.

But you can't deny one thing. Small movies are also a powerful tool that sweeps the world film industry.

This small film is truly a film that has no borders and no matter the language. It can be spread all over the world without the need for subtitle translation.

Movies like this one in Japan are full of talented people, and people like Mr. Takeshi are also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Anyway, you can say that you don’t like small movies or that they are vulgar, but you can’t deny the role of small movies.

As a representative of Hong Kong movies, Fa Ge himself has actually shot small movies.

Hua Tsai, Cheng Long, Ge Ge and other Hong Kong superstars also have small film works.

It's just that it was caused by the social conditions at the time, and it may not necessarily be what the stars themselves were willing to shoot.

At that time, Xiangjiang Film was in the mainstream. I signed a contract with my eldest brother, and if I asked you to do it, I would do it. I would send you the script and bullets, and you would make your own choice, right?

No one dares not to choose the script. Therefore, it is not uncommon for big stars in Hong Kong to shoot small movies. Liu Jialing was also photographed naked from the waist up, and later this photo caused quite a stir in Hong Kong.

Anyway, of course this kind of movie is banned in the Mainland, but in Hong Kong, it's just a commodity. That's right, small movies in Xiangjiang are a type of commodity.

The famous Fatty Wang Jingwang is a master at making comedies, but he is also an expert at making short films. He has few rivals in Hong Kong.

Therefore, Fa Ge actually has no prejudice against this kind of small film, but he was very surprised that a great director like Li Yu was making this type of film.

His eyes widened and he raised his voice and said, "You said that Director Li is planning to make Lust, Caution into a short movie in Hong Kong. Is this not a joke?"

Ye said with great certainty: "This is not a joke. If you don't believe it, just wait and see. When Lust, Caution is released in Xiangjiang, only people over the age of 18 are allowed to watch it. I will never deceive you on this point. of.

It's precisely because he wants to make this kind of movie, and he wants to use real swords and guns, which I just don't like. Don't tell me about dedicating yourself to art. Can you win Oscars and the three major international film festivals by relying on sex scenes?

He is an Oscar-winning director, but he actually does this trick, and it's not just for box office and gimmicks. Therefore, under such a situation, he can play whatever he wants, but don't choose actors in the mainland of Hong Kong. If he has the ability, he can go to Treasure Island to choose actors. "

Anyway, Ye Ming is actually quite firm on such a stance and does not give the Lust, Caution crew any room for relaxation.

Fa Ge was also a little surprised and said: "Ye Ming, this matter is not in line with your previous temper. Why must he go to Xiangjiang? This kind of movie may not be released in the mainland, but in Xiangjiang, it is just a movie type. .

What’s the big deal about choosing actresses wherever you go. As for mounting a horse with real swords and guns, this may be out of consideration. "

Anyway, Fa Ge is from Xiangjiang, so he may stay away from such small movies, but there is absolutely no objection at all.

Ye Ming said with a smile: "This may be because you think it is a movie type, and Director Li also thinks so?

Then just let him go to his hometown and choose the Baodao actress. That was his own birthplace, why didn't he go to Treasure Island to choose an actress.

He is a great international director, and he has never been very optimistic about mainland actors. To be honest, he has looked down on mainland actors for more than a day or two.

Now when it comes to shooting a small movie like this, I would choose an actress from the Mainland.

Isn’t it still the same to look down on mainland actresses, thinking that mainland actresses are only good enough to play a supporting role, a prostitute or something like that? This is the mentality of Hollywood directors when they look at us Chinese, or even Asians.

Director Li also has the same mentality. Therefore, on a question like this, why didn't he go to Treasure Island to choose an actress?

Does it mean that actresses from Baodao are not as good as those from Mainland China and Xiangjiang?

No, it just means that he is unwilling to let actresses from his birthplace star in such a small film. He was just afraid of being infamous in his hometown.

Therefore, Director Li is just for his own face, nothing else. As for people, you just can't spoil them. The more you spoil them, the more they will think you are easy to bully, and you owe them.

If you don't spoil them, they will pretend to be grandsons.

Fa Ge, you can go back and think about this for yourself. Anyway, if you are willing to have an actress from Xiangjiang play the heroine of this movie, if you people from Xiangjiang agree, then just pretend that I haven’t said this. Anyway, it’s not possible in the Mainland. , if Lust, Caution dares to use mainland actresses for the film, I will definitely ban the film and the individual actors.

Of course, you can tell Director Li that if he is willing to change the play and change it to a vague shooting method such as borrowing, without any revealing shots, I will not be able to agree to Tang Wei's performance in this play. .

I am playing against the person. Anyway, it’s up to Director Li to take care of this matter.

Whether he wants art or the market, he will decide for himself. "

Ye Ming's tone was not ordinary.

Fa Ge hung up the phone and pondered for less than ten seconds before he felt that Ye Ming's approach was right and supported Ye Ming's statement.

Therefore, Fa Ge directly called Li Yu and told Ye Ming what he said, and then said that the box office in the Mainland was still relatively important and hoped that he would think more about it. Ye Ming was determined anyway. To prevent Lust, Caution from being made into a short movie.

Wu Huishan was standing by now, and she probably heard what Fa Ge meant when he called.

Therefore, at this time, Wu Huishan said unhappily: "Why? Ye Ming actually has no control over how we want to shoot the movie. Why does he do that?"

In fact, in such a situation, Li Yu thought about it and said: "Why?

Because he is Ye Ming, and with his influence in the entertainment industry, in the Asia-Pacific, and even in Hollywood in Europe and the United States, this is enough to make people fearful.

This guy, when I first cooperated with him, I knew that this kind of person was the least likely to be messed with.

It's definitely not something that belongs in the pool, but I definitely didn't expect that this guy would develop to this point in just a few years.

It has developed to the point where I am even afraid of it.

If Ye Ming really blocks our movies, we will really find it very difficult to deal with such an issue.

We cannot afford to offend Huihuang.com alone.

Not to mention his other connections? This is indeed a difficult question. "
