Tokyo Literature and Art Times

Mr. Zhang is Zhang Guorong, he likes to drink coffee in Peninsula.

And it is not a coincidence that Takeshi Iwata met him by chance.

In short, it would be too much for him to keep his mouth shut in this encounter, right?

After all, Anita Mui and Leslie Cheung are very good friends.

Takeshi Iwata made it clear that this made Zhang Guorong very happy.

"Mr. Iwata is a real person, I like it very much."

Is this a promise?

But at this time, Sister Fang appeared.

"Then it's better, so be it."

ah?What's the meaning?

Iwata Takeshi couldn't help laughing.

"I plan to start filming next year, so leave your schedule to me."

Anita Mui and Zhang Guorong looked at each other and smiled.

"That `s a deal."

Takeshi Iwata's trip to Hong Kong was a great success.

Chapter 392 Find a guy who can shoot swords and halberds to teach me

Sister Fang is sure that it is the Mi family. Which role is Zhang Guorong suitable for?

Regarding this question, Takeshi Iwata soon had an answer.

It has to be said that Guorong is really handsome, and he really doesn't look old.

It seems that people have always been so young.

In addition, and the most critical point, Takeshi Iwata is very sure that Zhang Guorong has the feeling of a noble son.

This is not pretending, and it is difficult to pretend.

He just needs to be there, smile at you, and the feeling comes.

Of course, sometimes he will be funny and have other emotions, but more of this is the feeling of a nobleman.

In addition, the movie "Farewell My Concubine" actually gave Zhang Guorong another thing.

Fragile.

Cheng Dieyi, if you look closely, is not perfect. He is too persistent and crazy, and he can't tell whether he is on-screen or off-screen.

However, Cheng Dieyi's fragile feeling is also very obvious. He is like a crystal vase, which looks extremely hard, but it makes people worry that he will fall to the ground.

Ever since, such a role, Iwata Takeshi is very easy to arrange.

Prince Yan, Dan.

This is it, this one really suits him perfectly.

As the mastermind of the whole story of Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin, Prince Dan is definitely a complete loser.

In history, because of this incident, Prince Dan was finally killed by his father, and his head was dedicated to Qin Shihuang, in order to beg for the last way to stay in Yan.

From this point of view, this Prince Dan is indeed quite miserable.

In the original movie, Prince Dan and Ying Zheng are good friends, and of course, he is also good friends with that Zhao Ji.

But, even in Director Chen's movie, this guy is a fool.

Of course, in Director Chen's version, almost everyone is suffering from a serious illness, neurological.

As far as the actors are concerned, the one in that movie is Sun Zhou. In fact, he is also a well-known handsome guy in our mainland, and he also starred in "The Garland Under the Mountain".

It's a pity that the look that Director Chen gave made some people can't see the age of this Prince Dan.

Takeshi Iwata guessed that Director Chen wanted to design Sun Zhou to be the same year as Ying Zheng, so as to increase the bond between them.

However, historically, there is no record of the year Prince Dan was born, only the year of his death.

Moreover, Prince Dan was sent to Qin State as a hostage, and in Director Chen's movie, Ying Zheng, Zhao Ji, and Prince Dan were sent as children, which is not in line with history.

Even when Ying Zheng was in Zhao country with his father as a hostage, at most he was with Zhao Ji.

Therefore, from a historical point of view, it is roughly calculated that Prince Dan should be much younger than Ying Zheng, at least ten years old.

From this point of view, Jiang Wen and Zhang Guorong are really similar.

Of course, from the appearance point of view, the gap between the two is a bit too big than it really is.

I have to blame Jiang Wen for this matter, this stuff is still mentioned all the time.

When I was in school, because of the place of Zhongxi Opera, the neighbors were actually residents, and that area was not so rich or expensive back then.

Once you go there, you will know that it is an old alley. In the past, the Beiyang government had official residences, but they were all liberated later.

As a result, this guy followed this convenience and went out to fool people.

Pretend to be a leader.

Whoops, after a lot of fooling around, no one could see that this guy was just a student, and they all thought he was a great leader sent by his superiors.

This guy is proud of this matter, but on the other hand... some people don't seem to have a young age.

It's settled like this, Zhang Guorong is Prince Dan.

Takeshi Iwata intends to reshape this character. He doesn't want to follow the story of Director Chen. Of course, it's not good to completely follow the historical one.

It is mainly the Prince Dan in history, and the records are really not too many.

In "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin" in "Warring States Policy", Prince Dan is a timid and fearless person.

However, something that makes people question is that such a person has received Jing Ke's full help.

Naturally, judging from that era, Jing Ke must have his own limitations.

But if it is made into a movie like this, then the connotation is not rich enough.

Too complicated is not good, but it is too simple and too facial, and the audience will not like it.

Takeshi Iwata intends to add a little something.

Well, it's come to this point.

Jing Ke has it, Qin Shihuang has it, the queen has it, the little blind girl has it, the Prince Pill has it, Qin Wuyang has it, so who else is missing?

Fan Yuqi?

Yes, this is also an important role.

Lu Buwei?

In other words, maybe this role is not needed.

What about Chang Xinhou?

Where is the Queen Mother?

In the original version of "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin", there are all these characters.

But to be honest, Takeshi Iwata felt that the original failure was also a failure in this place.

Director Chen naively believed that there was something wrong with Qin Shihuang Yingzheng's lineage, and he believed in unofficial history, that is, according to legend, Yingzheng was Lu Buwei's son.

However, this possibility did not exist in the pre-Qin period, or in terms of court records throughout Chinese history.

There is one person to blame for the legend about Lu Buwei's son.

Tai Shigong.

That's right, it was he who said that, but many people later interpreted it that way.

However, there are other records in Tai Shigong's "Historical Records", that is...

Ying Zheng was born at full term.

Ancient people did not have genetic means, and indeed there was no way to test DNA.

However, don't think that ancient people are fools.

Full term, this is a very accurate identification standard.

To put it bluntly, if a prince is not full-term, then he is likely to lose the right of inheritance.

To put it simply, the possibility of a green hat is cut off from the root.

Therefore, Qin Shihuang Yingzheng is definitely the orthodox Qin Dynasty heir, and there is absolutely no problem.

As for the rumors about Lu Buwei's relationship with him.

That is also very simple, Ying Zheng is not without brothers.

Moreover, one thing to know is that this younger brother is still the prince of Chu State, and his backer is the nobles of Chu State.

In fact, the relationship between Chu State and Qin State is very, very good. The two parties have a history of intermarriage for more than 100 years.

We are familiar with Miyue, Mrs. Huayang, etc. In fact, many queens of King Qin are princesses of Chu.

In fact, during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, the upper-class nobles were intermarried, and the reason why many countries were not wiped out despite years of wars was because everyone was relatives.

This relationship is somewhat similar to that of Europe later, just like why the Second World War was fought so badly?

Because in the First World War, many European nobles were killed, they were no longer their own family members, and the chance of peace talks was almost zero.

Therefore, there is absolutely no problem with Ying Zheng's lineage.

Naturally, Takeshi Iwata would not shoot like Director Chen, as such shooting would make people who are familiar with history laugh out loud.

You know, this movie has the signboard of "Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin". If it is "Hero", then of course it can be shot in any way.

In this way, Takeshi Iwata has also confirmed that, of course, there is no drama about Qin Shihuang's lineage, but about the nobles of Chu and the rebellion of Lord Changping later, this...

Jingke's assassination of the King of Qin happened before Li Xin conquered Chu.

However, there should be connections between the stories.

Holding this idea, and the current staffing.

Takeshi Iwata felt that his script already had a rough shape.

Hmm, this time he had an idea before writing the script, and he had to polish the script slowly.

In Hong Kong, Takeyou Iwata chatted with Mr. He Guanchang, of course about film copyright.

Even when Mr. He Guanchang heard that Takeshi Iwata was planning to make a historical drama, he recommended the big brother Long to Takeshi Iwata.

this……

It's not that Takeshi Iwata is unaware of Big Brother Dragon's box office appeal, but wouldn't it be weird if Big Brother Dragon appeared in the movie "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin"?

It's fine if I don't protect Jing Ke's position.

But this assassination... Can Qin Shihuang escape the kung fu of his elder brother Long?

Even if Qin Palace is not IKEA, it is almost the same, right?

Forget it, we will cooperate again when we have a chance.

However, the appearance of elder brother Long's support was a wake-up call to Iwata Takeshi.

What are we going to do with the martial arts scenes in this movie?

It should be said that Takeshi Iwata liked the martial arts scenes in "Heroes" very much.

Really great list.

To put it bluntly, this is the pinnacle of martial arts movies, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Even, in the later Qin Palace, the martial arts scene in "Heroes" became a tourist project, with stuntmen performing live.

However, Takeshi Iwata still felt that he could not learn "Hero".

However, Takeshi Iwata also felt that there could be no martial arts scenes, that is, wonderful action scenes.

In this way, Takeshi Iwata returned to Japan contentedly.
