Standing out from the ordinary people, relying on one after another word-of-mouth and box office works, created a good story in the film and television industry.
"Red Sorghum", "Raise the Red Lantern", "House of Flying Daggers", "Return", "Shadow", etc., have brought visual feasts to audiences who like his movies time and time again.
His success is not accidental, but because of the accumulation of life experience. A person who can achieve success must have an exceptionally exciting life with ups and downs.
The same is true for Zhang Yimou. When he was still in junior high school, his family composition made him the target of many naughty children bullying him. It happened to be a special period. At that time, he lived in fear almost every day.
But he did not admit defeat, but learned the most basic survival skills-to be a man with his tail between his legs.
It sounds like irony, but it is an extremely clever philosophy of life. After all, when there is no ability, people who choose to show their sharpness are idiots.
He lived a low-key life and desperately improved himself so that he could better integrate into the environment at that time.Practice writing and drawing without any training, and be able to be competent for big-character posters, big columns, and portraits of the chairman in the later stage.In the process of survival, I learned one skill after another and realized my own value.
After graduating from junior high school, Zhang Yimou went to the countryside to join the team and won the praise of the local villagers with his painting skills.His goal at the time was to become a tool needed by everyone and to be recognized by everyone.
In the end, relying on his own skills, he was recruited into the factory. Without his previous efforts, it was obviously impossible for him to enter the factory in terms of his family composition.
Being able to become a worker made him the pride of his family, but because of his family background, he was the only one who was not eligible to apply for a member.
He is still a lonely person, still maintains the style of being a man with his tail between his legs, and is humble, which also makes him win everyone's favor.
While working in the factory, Zhang Yimou's interest in painting has undergone a qualitative change, because he met people who graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts and began to learn painting from them. It was no longer for the purpose of being a tool that others could use, but to find a way to paint. I realized the beauty of art, and my painting level has also been greatly improved.
In the first few years in the factory, Zhang Yimou studied painting, and later studied photography. He had a cousin who was proficient in this field, and he found that photography is a very easy and enjoyable thing.
In the era when it was a problem to have enough to eat, Zhang Yimou was able to save money to buy a camera of his own. This incident caused a sensation in the whole factory at the time, but for a person with pursuit, it was worth it.
In the process of learning photography, in order to prevent the waste of film, precise composition has become one of his unique skills, and his novel shooting works have gradually attracted attention in the factory.
It is said that opportunities will be reserved for those who are prepared. In the year when the college entrance examination was resumed, Zhang Yimou successfully entered the Photography Department of Beijing Film Academy by virtue of his accumulated experience. In school, he still kept his tail between his legs. The relationship between classmates, I constantly improve myself, tutoring film knowledge.
In school, because of his age and background, he also endured the questioning eyes and words of his classmates. However, through his own efforts, Zhang Yimou graduated successfully and started his life journey to his own success.
In Zhang Yimou's life, being a man with his tail between his legs is a way of survival, and it is also an indispensable means of life for him to succeed.
From expecting to be accepted, to becoming a qualified photographer, and then to self-realization, he adopts the way of being a man with his tail between his legs at every stage, approaching his dream step by step until he realizes his dream.
When Yi Qing knew about Zhang Yimou for the first time in his previous life, this man from Northwest China was already an internationally renowned director. The first work he watched was "Red Sorghum". He was attracted, and after watching "Raise the Red Lantern", he was also full of red eyes. Since then, he has fallen in love with Zhang Yimou's works.
Although later, the box office reputation of Zhang Yimou's works became uneven, but it did not hinder Zhang Yimou's important position in the audience's mind.
People who like Zhang Yimou will sigh with emotion at his movies, "As expected of a great director, the movies he made are made with heart", while those who hate him will disdain "It's been decades, and he's not playing the same old way".
In fact, for a director, it is enough to have a work that really impresses people and leaves his name in the history of film.
For example, "Red Sorghum", perhaps when Zhang Yimou was preparing to make this movie, he never thought that he could become famous with this movie, but after the movie was released, he won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival in one fell swoop.
Just like now, Zhang Yimou was a little embarrassed when facing Yi Qing. He didn't know what the outcome of this trip would be. After all, Gong Li is currently filming "Peerless Twins", which is a co-produced by three TV stations in two places. Well, the production cost alone is probably several million, and this film and television city, to shoot a movie, even built a movie theater specially for this movie.
It's not like him, before the filming started, he used 5 yuan to trick the local people into planting sorghum, and only then did he have a satisfactory location.
According to later generations, compared to the two works, the funds are abundant. "Peerless Twins" with a lot of stars is rich and handsome, while "Red Sorghum" with tight funds and not even a well-known actor is poor and short.
Jiang Wen?
He is equally anonymous now.
Zhang Yimou was talking non-stop, talking about the play "Red Sorghum", talking about the image of Jiu'er in his mind, and his eyes were still looking at Gong Li who was sitting beside him from time to time.
Yi Qing watched, feeling a little helpless in his heart. He didn't expect to turn around, and finally turned back. He, a little butterfly, caused some changes, but he couldn't make some things deviate from the direction.
Really infatuated!
In fact, Yi Qing has already made a decision. If Gong Li plays such important roles as Tie Xinlan and Su Ying in this play, let alone Zhang Yimou come to the door in person, even the leaders of Xiying Studio will have no way.
But Gong Li was only playing Yaoyue, and Yi Qing felt a little guilty because he let him miss his famous work in his previous life. Now that he has turned back, he is also happy to be an adult.
It's just that I don't know, after taking a fork in the road, will these two people have any troubles as they did in the previous life.
In the previous life, Zhang Yimou and Gong Li fell in love on the set of "Red Sorghum". When the two met, Zhang Yimou was already married, fifteen years older than her, and had a lovely child, but she still fell in love desperately.
After filming "Red Sorghum", Zhang Yimou also fell into it.
Later, because he couldn't be with Gong Li, as a director, he participated in "The Love of Terracotta Warriors in Ancient and Modern Wars", just to spend more time together.
Although Gong Li had been a disgraceful third party, when the world looked back on this relationship later, they were mostly tolerant of them.
They are in love with each other, and the films they collaborated with, such as "To Live", "Ju Dou", "Raise the Red Lantern", "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit" and other films, have all received numerous praises, and won awards and soft hands.
Of course, it is these few films that make Gong Li's international influence grow day by day.
But even after becoming a movie queen, when facing Zhang Yimou, she was always the smiling little woman sitting beside him.
It's a pity that after the filming of "Shake Ah Shake, Shake to Grandma Bridge", this lover who had been together for 8 years still ended up breaking up.
It is reported that Zhang Yimou's daughter didn't like Gong Li, so he couldn't give her a marriage contract, so Gong Li left in despair, and had a flash marriage with someone else half a year later.
He divorced her, but he still couldn't give her a marriage contract, so she left. After Gong Li, Zhang Yimou never used the same lead actress in a movie again.
The more I thought about it, Yi Qing really felt that it was a pity that these two people could not be together. Although Zhang Guoshi's face matched with Emperor Gong, it seemed a bit violent, but he couldn't stand the fact that he was talented, and the appearance of men and women were the same. Very good match.
"Director Zhang!"
Yi Qing spoke suddenly, interrupting Zhang Yimou's eloquence.
Zhang Yimou was not unhappy because his speech was interrupted, but he was actually relieved. He had already said a lot, and he didn't know what to say any more.
"Yi Zhuan, please tell me."
Yi Qing smiled, and turned her head to look at Gong Li. This big sister Hu didn't seem to have any intention of falling in love with Zhang Guoshi at first sight. She gnawed on an apple while flipping through the script, but her trembling legs showed that she was at the moment My heart is not at peace.

Chapter 513 Adult Beauty
Probably because of preconceived ideas, even though he knew Zhang Yimou and Gong Li were meeting for the first time, Yi Qing just felt that there was something wrong with these two people, and kept looking back and forth between them. He also glanced at the other party, but there was no communication at all.
Even when Zhang Yimou praised how good Gong Li was, Gong Li's expression was calm, as if he was not talking about her at all, or the half-gnawed apple in his hand was more attractive than Zhang Yimou .
Looking at it, Yi Qing also felt that she was a little nervous. The two of them had nothing to do with each other. The reason why they could be together in the future was because they knew each other. One was attracted by the other's talent, and the other estimated It's just for sex.
It is pure nonsense to talk about love at first sight or something. Gong Li is indeed beautiful, and it is normal for Zhang Yimou to be attracted, but Gong Li fell in love with Zhang Yimou at first sight?
What a mess!
Just that rustic face, what capital does it have to make a beautiful girl fall in love at first sight.
Zhang Yimou is still waiting for Yi Qing's "instruction". His purpose of coming here this time is to make a profit. As for whether he can invite the heroine back, it all depends on Yi Qing's attitude.
