Since 1983

next morning.

In the conference room of Xijiao Hotel, the main creators sat in a room, with a large oval table in the center, Xu Fei, Han Sanping, Chen Kexin, Hong Kong Lu producer and main actors.

How was your rest yesterday?

It's okay, but the capital is a bit dry.

The weather in the north is like this... Let me introduce you first...

Xu Fei pointed at the two people and said, Our photographer Lu Le, whose works include To Live and Shake Ah Shake to Grandma Bridge, and the other is his assistant, Zhang Li.

Lu Le got up to signal, and Chen Kexin also stood up.

Although Shake Ah Shake to Grandma Bridge has a controversial reputation, its technical level is still very high, and it was nominated for an Oscar for Best Cinematography.

Zhang Li is the photographer and director. He has filmed Towards the Republic, which is still very young.

Boom!

Ten minutes into the meeting, there was a knock on the door, and the big eyes of the lack of energy poked at the door, and he smiled casually: Sorry, I slept too late last night.

Sit down, be punctual next time. Supervisor Lu said.

ha……

Da Yan Zhang found a seat and couldn't help yawning.

Teacher Xu turned a blind eye and said with a smile: Today's form is called a symposium in mainland China. Does Hong Kong have similar preparations?

There are very few focused discussions. It's all about the director talking to the actors individually.

Well, we mainly talk about the understanding of the character in the morning, each talking about his own. Let's study the character's heart and behavioral logic together to see if it makes sense.

Xu Fei was very polite, he didn't grab power or talk, and left it to Chen Kexin after speaking.

When the director just arrived, he also talked about doing as the Romans do, saying: All of you here are experienced actors, and I would like to hear it too. Let's start with Mr. Ge You.

Uncle Ge came back from the United States with a clean shaven beard and his hair growing back.

The original version was wearing a military uniform, but he wore a military uniform a bit funny, and ordered a few old suits from that era. Wang Zhiwen can pick up a stool and hit Zhang Hanyu, but he can't, his style has completely changed.

I'm playing Wang Tianxiang, the chief of the Secret Service of the Puppet Army. I want to show a feeling of a white-faced hell king with a superficial smile.

He is like a vulture that finds its prey. The vulture eats carrion, but what if the prey is not dead? He just stares at his prey, always observing and watching you from a corner, hoping you will die soon.

Ge You was proud of finding a wonderful metaphor, and said: Wang Tianxiang likes Gu Xiaomeng, throughout the whole process, he was worried about him, and he wanted to save him before his execution.

Even in the end, he most likely shot those two shots on purpose to fulfill Gu Xiaomeng. From this point of view, he has a very special place in his heart.

At the same time, I thought about it carefully, and found out... Do you think it is possible for him to use Takeda's power to kill the guy I usually dislike? For example, gold makes fire.

Why do you think so? Chen Kexin asked.

Jin Shenghuo was cowardly, afraid of being tortured and shot himself. But since he was cowardly, how dare he commit suicide? There must be a stronger conflict, such as a conflict with Wang Tianxiang, for fear of falling into his hands, he might as well commit suicide.

But Jin Shenghuo is related to the commander, Wang Tianxiang didn't have the guts to kill him on purpose, Fu Biao said.

It's not intentional death, it's enough to create some unfavorable situations appropriately. As a result, he didn't expect that Wutian was not authorized, and he became a scapegoat. Jiang Wen said.

...

Chen Kexin thought for a moment, and said: It is logical, you can add some details according to your own ideas.

Okay. Ge You nodded.

It's my turn. I don't know how to analyze it. Don't laugh at me.

Fu Biao also took out a small book, and said in a decent manner: Jin Shenghuo is the chief of the Military Aircraft Division of the Puppet Army's Bandit Suppression Corps, and he got in through his nepotism.

Cowardly and wimpy, he has no skills, only one thing. The script mentions that he is a master of calligraphy and can imitate other people's fonts.

I think that since I am a master of calligraphy, I must be a scholar. I don't study much, and I haven't done anything else in the past six months since I took the role. One is reading, and the other is practicing calligraphy.

Because of my appearance, I can be fierce sometimes. I'll try to be as calm as possible, and then add a small prop myself...

Fu Biao suddenly took out a pair of glasses, put them on and said, If you take care of your hair and makeup, I think you still have the temperament of a scholar.

Hahaha!

Like, quite like.

good!

Zhang Manyu and Liang Jiahui looked at each other, it turned out that mainland actors act like this. Wow, preparing half a year in advance is unimaginable in Hong Kong.

Following Xin Baiqing, he said tremblingly: I'm playing Bai Xiaonian, the commander's attendant, actually a male favourite, and a famous Kunqu opera singer in the past.

I have also learned Kunqu opera for several months, but I dare not say how it is, but I can barely listen to it.

I think this role is very complicated. He was introduced to the commander by Jin Shenghuo. He was unwilling in his heart, but in order to protect himself in troubled times, he had to commit himself to the commander.

It made him a bit extreme, fantasizing that he was innocent, but the reality was just the opposite. He was despised by the people around him, but he himself hated Jin Shenghuo, so he bit him first... Uh, I don't know if it's right.

Yes, yes, it works. Jiang Wen nodded instead of the director.

The script of the original The Wind is very complete, each has its own story line, and many have been deleted.

Xu Fei recreated it himself and added some.

For example, the close relationship between Gu Xiaomeng and Li Ningyu has been paved, instead of just saying I just think you are very close.

And on the first night of entering the castle, Jin Shenghuo knocked on Bai Xiaonian's door, trying to get an accomplice. As a result, Bai Xiaonian ignored his answers, and the two quarreled, showing his attitude towards Jin Shenghuo.

And after Gu Xiaomeng's death, how can he be sure that his body (underwear with information) can be sent out. Xu Fei added a sentence, to the effect that based on her family's background, even if her daughter was an underground party, at least a whole body could be collected.

Then it was Jiang Wen's turn, Old Jiang patted the table, hormones erupted:

I think Team Wu is too simple, it would be better if it was more complicated, and the whole story is too clear, and the context of the characters is too clear, if I direct...

You give me a rest!

Tell me.

Gong Li suppressed her joy, and said: Gu Xiaomeng's family background is very strong, he was a minister under Xu Shichang's command, and later went into business, and he is a brother of Wang Jingwei.

She lurks in the military headquarters, under the guise of being a social butterfly, she can tease anyone. After entering the castle, she also hooked Wang Tianxiang so that she could use it.

So there must be three levels, one is Gu Xiaomeng, who is arrogant and flamboyant, and even a bit dissolute; the other is a revolutionary who is courageous and resourceful, and has great faith; and, uh...

What's wrong? Xu Fei asked.

I didn't think much about it, so I won't talk about it.

Oh, Maggie's coming to you.

Zhang Manyu took a deep breath, feeling a little stressed, and said, To be honest, I seldom do this kind of group discussion about scripts. I just listened to it, and I feel that you are all involved with each other, only Li Ningyu is not.

I think that's what characterizes her.

She is a top student in an American university, and her parents are also professors. There is one kind, one kind, what do you say?

Intellectuals.

Yes, the temperament of an intellectual. The heart is proud and reserved, and the relationship is more traditional... By the way, I have never understood. What do the Japanese do to her? Does she have such a big reaction?

Takeda tested whether she was an underground party, and measured and analyzed her like a specimen. She is an intellectual, and she is very traditional. She is not only an insult to the body, but also a comprehensive psychological violation.

So Li Ningyu collapsed, which also shows that she is psychologically fragile.

It seems, I seem to understand a little bit. Zhang Manyu nodded.

Finally, Liang Jiahui talked about Takeda's family history. He was ridiculed by his colleagues because of his ancestors' cowardice.

In fact, he acted privately without authorization, so he was eager to solve this matter.

...

Chatting with each other like this, unconsciously, the understanding of the characters becomes deeper. Chen Kexin was also very excited and had a lot of ideas, and he found that this time might be a good job.

First of all, the crew is professional, and secondly, the actors are strong.

This kind of lineup is placed in Hong Kong, and it usually only appears in Wong Kar-wai's films, or in The Rich Family, A Happy Family, and The Seven Stars Announcement.

Soon at noon, everyone rested.

While eating lunch, Gong Li sneaked over and said in a low voice, The more I read the script, the more I think it's wrong.

What's wrong?

What kind of feelings does Gu Xiaomeng have for Li Ningyu?

Why is the old driver pretending to be tender? You Tianshan Child Elder played for nothing?

When mentioning Tianshan Child Elder, Gong Huang's head is full of black lines.

The guy continued to ask vigorously: Hey, how does it feel to fall in love with Lin Qingxia? You show your arms and she rests on your shoulders. Are you blushing and heart beating? You can't help it?

Has anyone ever told you that you are mean?

Yes, I often say it myself.

Xu Fei teased her a few words, and said with a smile: The third level of Gu Xiaomeng is the feelings for Li Ningyu. But you have to act like in the script, don't show it clearly, otherwise you won't pass the trial.

In the original movie, there was also a kissing scene between the young master and Li Lianhua, but unfortunately it was deleted, deleted, deleted...

(besides!)
