to deep

These days he lived very comfortably, the ease and smoothness he had never experienced since the age of 20, immersed in the loss and recovery of love, he never thought about it, would he still want to act in the future?

He can live for a long time, but if he wants to act, he can't act for many years.

At first glance, it seems absurd, but it is not impossible to think about it: the reasons for his retirement 20 years ago no longer exist, so why doesn't he continue to act?

Maybe it's fear.

Now, he may no longer have the passion to devote himself to a role like he did back then.He doesn't have the ability to create a classic character, and acting is nothing but poisoning the audience.That being the case, is there any need for him to continue acting for his obsession?

On the plane back to Beijing, he suddenly asked Zhao Wenyan, "Why did you take a break back then?"

The doubts that have plagued his heart for more than ten years now finally have a suitable identity to ask: he was famous at that time, and it happened to be the golden age of creation, Xiying, is it really because he is afraid that he will not be able to surpass himself.

Next to him, Zhao Wenyan took off the blindfold and answered the question: "Do you still remember that I told you that I signed a contract for a new movie, and as soon as the additional conditions are met, the machine will be turned on immediately?"

It was about the premiere of New Moon.Shen Qiao caught his implication: "What are the additional conditions?"

"You are the leading actor." Zhao Wenyan said.

In 2010, he received a script that was passed on to him.The background of the story is China and France. The friend who gave him the script told him that the producer only considered him.

It was a great script, and the sheer desire to direct a great movie was enough to drive him to take it on, the only thing was that when he conceived the scene, he could only have the male lead in his mind.

"I'm for you. First I tried my best to prove it to you, but later I couldn't bear it no matter how well I did, you weren't by my side." He sighed softly, "After reading the script, I I negotiated the conditions with them, you act, I will direct. They agreed, and then waited for six years."

He looked at Shen Qiao with a smile on his lips, "Will you help us?"

"I might not be able to act well." After a moment of silence, Shen Qiao said.

This is his truth.Some people believed in him because of his past glory, but he didn't believe in himself.

"Why?" Zhao Wenyan asked.

"Acting is about putting yourself into a role, and you have to accept it without reservation." Shen Qiao organized her words, "I didn't doubt or be wary before, but it's different now."

"Then do you know how the director trains the actors?" Zhao Wenyan was unmoved when he heard the words, and there was an aggressive color in his Wen Ding eyes: that is his professional field, and he knows everything at his fingertips, so he wants to show this When everything is used to persuade others, the bright look cannot be imitated, "They need to understand actors, measure whether they have the potential to become roles, use appropriate methods to arrange and combine their personalities and experiences, and finally achieve what they want. Effect."

He took a deep breath and held Shen Qiao's hand. The certainty forced Shen Qiao to believe what he said next:

"Shen Qiao, if you don't know how to act, don't I know how to teach?"

After getting off the plane, Zhao Wenyan sent him the script he mentioned, "M.butterfly", "Mr. Butterfly".

This script has a lot of background. The author is the famous Chinese-American playwright David Hwang, who has won the Tony Award for Best Drama. In the 90s, a company wanted to put it on the screen, but it did not find a suitable actor.

"Mr. Butterfly" is adapted from a real spy war story, but the plot structure borrows a lot from the famous opera "Madame Butterfly". In ", the French diplomat who thinks he is the American officer Pinkerton is played and destroyed.

Nation and race, East and West, gender and politics, identity and identity, and even colonization and post-coloniality, these major cultural propositions are all hidden in bizarre plots.Zhao Wenyan said it was a good script, and according to his intuition, "Mr. Butterfly" does have the potential to become a masterpiece.

"If you want, I'll call the producer right away and start preparing for the start." Zhao Wenyan said, "For the past six years, I have been thinking about what I should do if I can really start filming one day. Believe me, just like before You trust the teacher as much as they do."

Some decisions are important, but they are only made in a flash.He put down the script and said with a light smile, "I believe in you, but you also have to believe in me."

They have to trust each other.Zhao Wenyan has to believe that he can achieve the performance he wants, and he also has to believe that Zhao Wenyan can train him to be what he needs.

After that, they fell into the usual sense of gathering less and leaving more: he decided to come back to acting, and he must withdraw from the political world. He had to sort out his grievances and grievances one by one, and it would take time for Zhao Wenyan to reassemble a film team.

The news of their comeback is still strictly kept secret, but Li Xiao hired a few well-known columnists, and started special topics in several domestic companies with equal emphasis on sales and popularity, which can be regarded as a warm-up in the early stage.As a master in this field, Li Xiao understands that the hype should not go too far. The filming of "Mr. Butterfly" is bound to rely on the quality and word of mouth. Although a lot of online marketing can increase the exposure rate, it is undoubtedly self-deprecating.

Huo Qiyuan later told him about Nie Liang, and the first trial was about to start. Even if the charge of buying murder could not be proven, what Nie Liang had done over the years was enough to be sentenced to death.

Hearing those two words, his eyelids twitched suddenly, a feeling of nothingness suddenly rose from the soles of his feet, and he was at a loss for a while.

The person who has been entangled with him for half his life and has a blood feud with him is going to die.

The most sacred and just judgment, an ending with no room for change.

Subconsciously, he thought that he and Nie Liang were still short of a confrontation that would settle all grievances, but that thought was just a flash: this meeting might be possible, but he would have to take a big risk. not see.

He thought so, but the fact was not what he wanted.

After waking up from the chaos, he raised his head subconsciously, but his eyes were completely dark.Someone lifted the black cloth blindfolded and looked at him quietly.

He immediately understood his situation.After a moment of fear, he looked directly at the person in front of him. In the past 20 years, he had never been so calm in front of Nie Liang like this moment:

"Are you here to say goodbye to me, or do you want to take me to be buried with you?"

The script and movie of "Mr. Butterfly" are real. It was directed by David Cronenberg in 1993, starring John Lone and Jeremy Irons. The big beauty hey (☆▽☆)y
