Entertainment: Starting from playing the role of the villain in the competition

Moreover, the quality of this script is still very high!

Rest assured, Jia Zhangke was impatient, and continued to read the script, wanting to see what kind of story Wu Zong, a genius, could show him.

Just like that, Jia Zhangke didn't come out of the room for a whole day, and he didn't even bother to eat lunch!

In the first half of the movie, various images of the main character "tree" are depicted, which makes Jia Zhangke breathless.

Those arms that were always half-raised and the fists that were always half-clenched made him feel like a stone was on his heart.

What made him feel even more depressing was that Wu Zong actually put this depressive and awkward atmosphere on the wedding of 'Tree', and carried out a concentrated explosion of emotions.

Marriage is originally one of the most important moments in a person's life, and it is a great joy in life.

However, Wu Zong chose this time to completely detonate this oppressive and dull atmosphere.

It also thoroughly exposed the darkest side of the task of 'tree' to the audience.

With the end of the episode that made Jia Zhangke waste half a pack of cigarettes, the movie entered the second half.

But in the second half, Jia Zhangke really called Wu Zong a genius!

After a very unhappy wedding, the tree seemed to be a different person, the light in his eyes completely dissipated, as if he had turned into a marionette, a sad walking dead.

However, the turning point happened precisely at this moment.

'Tree' seems to have a prophesied superpower.

And with the birth of this unimaginable ability, the tree that has always been unpopular in the village and regarded as a laughing stock has suddenly become a "half fairy" in the village and is respected by everyone.

This magical realism twist gave Jia Zhangke goosebumps all over his body.

This is so unbelievable.

What he was talking about was not the script, but Wu Zong!

Jia Zhangke never expected that Wu Zong was so bold that he used an absurd and magical technique beyond reality to endow the 'tree' with a seemingly 'new life' turning point!

It's amazing!

And this magical absurdity, until the end of the movie, Wu Zong did not give a final explanation.

Instead, it uses a blood red that contrasts extremely strongly with the snowy fields in the north as a filter, giving an open ending to a wild run in the field.

It seems that the 'tree' gained a 'new life' because of a sudden fable ability.

However, Jia Zhangke could tell from the tree's still-unrested hands and dull eyes that he had never been reborn.

After that wedding, the tree died.

Maybe he was really dead, maybe he was crazy, maybe he was blind.

After reading the whole script, Jia Zhangke felt that it is not so much that the "tree" "died" at a certain time period.

Rather, he never lived.

"call--"

Jia Zhangke, who had read the whole script, exhaled a long breath of dull air, and the depression in his heart could not be dispelled for a long time.

Turning around, the ashtray was already full.

Before he knew it, he had smoked two full packs of cigarettes from morning to night.

He also finally understood why the 'tree' in the script loved smoking so much.

Not because he likes to smoke, but because if he doesn't smoke, he doesn't know how to put his hands together.

But think about it, it's actually quite sad.

There is nowhere to put your hands, you can hold a cigarette.

But what if life has nowhere to rest?

After a full 10 minutes of delay, Jia Zhangke finally got out of the script and picked up the phone at hand to call Wang Ding.

"Hello, Mr. Wang."

"I've finished reading the script, when are you planning to start filming?"

"Oh, it doesn't matter about the remuneration, but this movie must be entrusted to me to shoot."

"It's not that I, Jia Zhangke, are talking big. No one else can make this film except me."

"Okay, then I will wait for the good news."

Here, Wang Ding, who was listening to the beeping busy tone on the phone, had a wonderful expression on his face.

After thinking for a long time, he still didn't understand why, so he simply called Wu Zong.

"Hello? Zong? What did you write in the script? Do you know what director Jia Zhangke said just now?"

"He actually said that the salary doesn't matter?!"

"Are you his lost son?".

Chapter 204

Wang Ding was surprised.

Very surprised!

Why!

People!The leader of the sixth generation of directors!Huaxia Literary Movie Master!International awards are soft!

Let me give you an artist who has been fledgling for less than a year, and his main job is still acting in movies, and his side job is singing and making movies!

Look at the reward!

He also said that this movie must be handed over to him!

You said that Wu Zong is Jia Zhangke's son, he would believe it!

"Are you a fucking sand sculpture!"

Wu Zong roared.

"Look, I look like him!"

"Then why did he say that! There must be a reason!"

Wang Ding still couldn't figure it out.

"The only thing I can think of is that you included a birth certificate and DNA test results in the script!"

"roll roll roll--"

Wu Zong is too lazy to be careless with Wang Ding here.

"Speaking of business, how much do you estimate in your heart?"

"I don't know, it's not jointly produced by us and Jiaxing. You can ask Jiaxing, we account for 20.00%, and they account for 40.00%. Just follow the ratio."

Wu Zong turned his head and looked at Yang Mi beside him.

Yang Mi shrugged in embarrassment.

"Don't look at me, I don't know either."

"This kind of super-first-line director usually quotes in the tens of millions, but a big director like them usually won't accept a movie because of the salary. Basically, they have their own production team, like you This situation is exceptional."

All three of them were embarrassed on the phone.

No one has ever encountered such a situation.

Because most of the time, such super-first-line directors are often priceless.

To put it bluntly, although the price is marked, people generally do not issue it.

Originally, I was counting on Jia Zhangke to make a price, but the only request was that the director of the film would give it to him. As for the money, it doesn't matter.

In fact, the more this is the case, the more difficult it is.

You make a price, and we can discuss it.

If you don’t ask me to give you a price, I’ll give you too much, it seems like I’m a fool, if I give you less, it’s like I look down on you.

In the end, the three discussed whether to ask Wang Ding to call Jia Zhangke, ask him about the expected price, and put the words on the table. The cooperation between the two parties is also comfortable.

"It looks like this is the only way to go."

Wang Ding shrugged, after all, they had no better solution.

And Jia Zhangke quickly responded.

"Since we have no dispute over the director, then there is no dispute over the whole movie. Let's go through a symbolic procedure for one dollar."

One dollar!

Now Wang Ding felt that there was a problem between Wu Zong and Jia Zhangke!

How did he know that the actual situation is that Jia Zhangke was moved by Wu Zong's script, and he just wanted to make such a movie with a bold conception, thinking and discussing the most essential problems of human existence.

Moreover, judging from Jia Zhangke's experience in participating in various film competitions over the years, Wu Zong's script is fully capable of participating in international film competitions, and may even win an award.

And what he is most worried about now is Wu Zong.

There is no doubt that this drama is starring Wu Zong.

For the image of 'tree', Jia Zhangke has a rough outline in mind.

And think about the roles that Wu Zong played before——

Zhao Tai, a psychopathic rich second generation.

Ding Xiu, a big brother who is both good and evil.

Azu, a crazy dude who behaved perversely and was wounded in his heart.

It can't be said that it's not very similar to the 'tree', it can be said that it has nothing to do with it, and it can't even rub a fart.

Although Wu Zong's acting skills are widely seen by the entire film and television industry, Jia Zhangke is still a little worried about whether he can successfully portray such a character that has nothing to do with his previous roles.

If Wu Zong can act well, then for him, it will be a "plastic surgery" proof of his acting skills.

But if he can't act well, then such a good script will be ruined.

That would be such a pity.

But soon, Jia Zhangke will get the answer.

Because the related scenes of "Return" have been set up, Wu Zong will immediately devote himself to "Hello!During the filming of Mr. Tree.

At that time, whether it is a mule or a horse, it can be pulled out for a stroll.

……

In Xiangjiang, the tribute movie "Return" directed by Zhong Xiaolu is under intense shooting.

Wu Zong, on the other hand, held a pen and a notebook, and followed closely behind Director Zhong Xiaolu, recording the relevant arrangements and shooting links, just like a student.

Of course, his future goals are not limited to screenwriting.

Being a director is the next step he has to take.

But now, the related skills of 'director' have not been unlocked yet, so Wu Zong had to prepare early.

He couldn't predict what the next unlocked skill would be.

What if you don't have the skill of 'director' in your own system?Then he doesn't do it?

Of course not.

Therefore, in order to prevent the emergence of such uncertain factors, Wu Zong decided to learn the skills and knowledge related to directing first.

In this way, even if his system does not unlock the 'director', he can still direct the film himself after studying for a few years.

And Wu Zong's attitude made Zhong Xiaolu very satisfied.

A supernova with a name resounding across the Taiwan Strait and three places has been studying by his side with a pen and paper like a primary school student. It is impossible for people to feel disgusted by this humble and studious attitude of the Central Plains.

Moreover, after some contact with Zhong Xiaolu, she found that not only did Wu Zong not have the slightest airs of a big star, but he was very down-to-earth.

On the scene, it seemed that we needed help in setting up the scene. He sent everyone a boxed lunch for takeaway, and even helped the actors who were acting with their words and water. He was willing to help, and he was always smiling, which made people feel very kind.
