1573 ["Chongqing Forest" starts]
Just as the summer took over Yufeng Group, director Wang Jiawei also began filming "Chongqing Forest".
In addition to Lin Qingxia playing the killer, Liu Dehua also plays the pineapple-eating policeman He Zhiwu. Zhang Guorong plays the patrolman Liuliusan, and the candidate for playing the fast food store clerk A Fei was beyond Xia Tian's expectations.
Wang Jiawei actually chose Lan Jie's mother to play this role. The explanation he gave was that Lan Jie's mother had an ethereal and lonely temperament, which was very consistent with the modern human feeling in his eyes.
Xia Tian agrees with his statement very much. Among the many beauties in Hong Kong, Lan Jie is indeed a rare beauty with a fairy spirit.
Moreover, she didn't know that she was beautiful and had outstanding temperament, and what was even rarer was that her acting skills were equally excellent. Therefore, it was indeed very suitable to choose her to play A Fei.
Therefore, although Xia Tian didn't want Lan Jie's mother to be too hard, now she has a role that suits her. After weighing it over and over again, he still agreed.
Although the character "Afei" is a bit weird, she likes a boy but doesn't say it, but secretly goes to his house to help with housework. However, she is not as mentally ill as "Sister Ling" in "The Great Era". I believe that even if Lan Jiemiao plays it again, there will be no big problems.
In addition to being an actor and director, "Chongqing Forest" also has another important position, which is a photographer.
Wang Jiawei's movies rarely have a complete story, but only paragraphs. In the paragraphs, the relationship and state of the characters are what he wants to present to the audience. In order to present this paragraph perfectly to the audience, you must have a photographer with superb skills and unique style.
Du Kefeng is such a talented photographer. He is not a professional, and he was a sailor earlier. He only worked in photography since seven or eight years.
Because he is not a professional, Du Kefeng will not be bound by those rules and regulations, so he can easily establish his own style. Du Kefeng's style, one is to pay attention to the combination of light and shadow, and the other is to be good at taking photos with reality.
In "East Evil and West Poison", Murong Yan, played by Lin Qingxia, was walking around the room with a bird cage. The shadow of the cage passed by her face, just reflecting her mood at that time. In "Chongqing Forest", the large shaking scene at the beginning also gave the audience a strong sense of reality, as if she was in the scene.
These two movies are his masterpieces, and they are also filmed in collaboration with Wang Jiawei.
In their previous lives, they were already a good partner and worked together on "The Legend of A Fei", "Chongqing Forest", "East Evil and West Poison", "Fallen Angel", "Spring Light", "Flowing Years", etc.
It is said that the cooperation between Wang Jiawei and Du Kefeng has produced the effect of one plus one being greater than two.
Therefore, in this life, Xia Tian also recommended Du Kefeng to Wang Jiawei. In his previous life, Wang Jiawei collaborated with Du Kefeng for the first time when he was filming "The Legend of A Fei" in the 90s.
The cooperation in this life was two years ahead of schedule with the summer matchmaking.
...
"Chongqing Forest" did not hold any opening ceremony, but started filming quietly.
The reason for this is that many scenes of the drama "Chongqing Forest" have to be filmed outside.
Lin Qingxia, Liu Dehua, Zhang Guorong, and Lan Jiemu, these stars are already very eye-catching and are easily recognized when filming outside.
If you promote it again, then there will be fans gathering, so don’t shoot any drama. The optical drive to drive away those fans will be enough to make the crew members unable to do anything. Therefore, the summer strategy is to "come quietly into the village and shoot at the gun."
However, on the day of the filming, he still visited the crew.
First, he does not trust Wang Jiawei, the new director, and is worried that he may mess up the movie; second, Lin Qingxia and Lan Jiemu are all in this crew, so he must also visit.
"Mr. Xia, you are here." When Liu Dehua came to the crew, he saw Xia Tian with a sharp eyes and quickly smiled and greeted him.
"Andy Lau" Xia Tian nodded with a smile, and then praised, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and you're getting more and more handsome."
"Where is Mr. Xia who is really handsome?" Liu Dehua waved his hand and smiled when he heard him praise him.
Xia Tian smiled. In terms of handsomeness, he and Liu Dehua were really worth a lot of money, regardless of Xuan Ze. This was also one of his biggest surprises after traveling through time.
However, being handsome is just an external. If a man wants to be in a position, the key is to have inner self.
Just like Liu Dehua, the reason why he has been popular for so long is not simply because he is handsome, but because of decades of hard work, never being lazy and never retreating, which makes him always in the upstream entertainment industry where he is sailing against the current and retreats without advancing.
The negative example is Zheng Yijian. In the late 1990s, he became Liu Dehua's biggest competitor with the "Young and Dangerous" series and the "Storm and Cloud" series.
However, because others have a loose personality and no career aspirations, they would rather play games at home than get the opportunity to film, so their popularity gradually fades away, and they eventually fell from a first-line young actor to a position of unknown levels.
Xia Tian can clearly rely on her face to make a living, but she still builds a fortune by relying on her talent.
While chatting, Zhang Guorong also saw Xia Tian, ran over happily, hugged him, and smiled affectionately, "Boss Xia, you are here."
Xia Tian is Zhang Guorong's noble character. When Xia Tian invited Zhang Guorong to star in "The True Color of Heroes", he had not yet achieved success in the film industry.
But now, one movie "The True Color of Heroes", one movie "A Chinese Ghost Story", and one movie "Rouge Button", three well-known and popular blockbusters have established the position of a first-line star, and have also won the nomination for the Academy Awards many times.
Although he was unable to win the award in the end, he had already proved his strength. These three movies were written by Xia Tian, and they were arranged by Xia Tian to star in them. Therefore, in Zhang Guorong's opinion, Xia Tian is so cute.
"Leslie" Xia Tian also smiled and said, "It's really unfortunate that you didn't get the movie tycoon with "Rouge Button" this time, I feel sorry for you."
"I also feel sorry, but there is no way. Faza is too strong. I am not wronged to be defeated by him." Zhang Guorong said with a smile.
Zhou Runfa was shortlisted for the Academy Awards for three movies this time, which can be said to be an unprecedented feat. Losing to such a character is indeed not unfair.
"Yes, Fazi did exert his strength last year." Xia Tian nodded.
