Chapter 28 Such a Good

Guo Baochang is a very unlucky director. Although he started his directorial career after graduating from the Beijing Film Academy in 1964 and got a ruthless job, he was not happy because those were not what he wanted to do. For those who were adopted in the Great Mansion at the age of two, his mind was filled with fascination with that era, so he started to create the novel "The Great Mansion at the age of thirteen. During the special period, more than a dozen boxes of information and manuscripts were destroyed twice. It can be said that he worked hard. These two blows almost cost him his life.

Helplessly, those stories were so charming, and those people seemed to be right in front of him. Anyone who had heard Lao Guo tell these stories personally advised him to bring this story to the big screen, but no one knew how great a catastrophe had been suffered by Lao Guo.

Finally, Guo Baochang started writing again. He declined all film contracts from the end of 1994. It was not until October of the golden autumn of 1995 that this manuscript had been continuously created for twenty years, but the entire creation cycle lasted for more than forty years.

The manuscript began to be widely praised as soon as it was released. The vivid characters completely conquered the hearts of readers, making everyone who has read this manuscript seem to have seen everything in the old age in the capital with their own eyes.

In January of the millennium, Guo Baochang finally waited for the platform he liked, and CCTV attached great importance to it as a key project of that year.

The news spread like wildfire, and major agency companies that smelled the smell began to run privately just to win a role for their artists in this drama. Huayi is the hardest one.

Everyone knows what it means to films listed as key projects by CCTV. With the high ratings, as long as the actors participating in the performance are not too bad, becoming popular has basically been determined.

"Xiao Shao, from now on, I won't bother you. Just concentrate on reading the script. After getting off the plane, we will stay in the hotel. You have to think about it carefully these two days. The night after tomorrow, I will take you to see Director Guo."

On the plane flying back to the capital of Huangpu, Zhang Wan handed Shao Yingxiong a manuscript. After contact with the crew of "Blade 1937", he knew that Shao Yingxiong was a bit evil, and maybe he could take down the role of Bai Jingqi like a blind cat who met a dead mouse.

Shao Yingxiong held the script and shook his head, looking at the script, said, "I want to go home."

...

Zhang Wan was so angry that he didn't understand why Shao Yingxiong was so mean. It took about an hour and a half from the airport to the house he rented. What's wrong with having this hour and a half? Isn't it okay to find a hotel to rest or study scripts to prepare for the day after tomorrow?

Shao Yingxiong ignored Zhang Wan in the car and sat alone in the back seat of the car sent by the company to read the script. This was the first time he enjoyed the treatment of first class and picking up the car in a private car. Even for this treatment, he had to take down the role of "The Mansion Gate".

Back at the rental house, Shao Yingxiong turned on the computer and found all the information about "The Mansion Gate". He spent the past four months studying Jiang Wen and Chen Daoming, but he didn't notice the popular drama "The Mansion Gate" that has been half the sky.

In any case, Shao Yingxiong never expected that "The Mansion Gate" could soar from 17.74% to 21%!

Yes, the ratings of "Conquer" are not low, and Beijing TV alone got 29%, but that is not the national ratings, but the local ratings of Beijing. "The Mansion" has become a hit all over the country.

When Shao Yingxiong looked at the text introduction on the computer, he also saw such a behind-the-scenes footage, which read the original words of director Guo Baochang: "These famous fifth-generation directors and big stars have no airs in my place. Apart from playing roles on camera, they are rushing to do everything. Once, I filmed a scene in the mall, Jiang Wen and Zhang Yimou at the same time. The three of us were playing, Tian Zhuangzhuang was the executive director, Hou Yong took the camera, and He Qun was the artist. People said that this scene was unprecedented."

Seeing this, Shao Yingxiong was completely worried. He checked the cast and crew list of "The Mansion Gate", Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Tian Zhuangzhuang, Jiang Wen, Siqin Gaowa, Liu Peiqi, Chen Baoguo... These are all characters who can play tricks. This person is more luxurious than the current "Blade 1937"!

If I had pulled the role of Bai Jingqi onto it...even if it was the young Bai Jingqi!

Shao Yingxiong immediately clicked on the TV series. When the player popped up, he never thought that this super drama would allow him to watch for one or two nights!!!

It is impossible to describe this drama if you are good-looking. The depth of this drama is definitely not fully expressed by the word "good-looking". Here, the good and evil of human nature, the rules of the house and the conflict between the times. This is a story that cannot be written without experiencing that era. Once written, it can instantly catch the eye.

This story is very real. Six generations of people, under the influence of family affection and money, have cooked a pot of porridge with the era when no one could compete with them.

None of them is noble, no one is extraordinary, and they are all vulgar. But when we open our eyes, we can find the true form around us immediately, because these people are still hiding around everyone until now, maybe friends, relatives, or lovers. In their personalities, we can more or less find the shadow of a certain character in the mansion.

The most important thing to take down the role of Bai Jingqi is to find the power of the old man in Beijing. In that chaotic era, there was the depression in the late Qing Dynasty, the panic of the emperor changing every day, the lack of food, trust, and purity. It is precisely because of so much that the people in Beijing have developed a special personality. It is a very difficult force. In today's words, even if a middle-level leader of a company was removed by the Human Resources Department, he had to break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, saying, "I don't want to do it anymore. Without you, maybe the old man is now worth over 100 million yuan." At the same time, he had to take out the phone and ask the family's "I have made the fried noodles."

If you want to get this energy well, you must not only have a life, but also have a kind of arrogance in your bones.

Shao Yingxiong didn't know that era. After watching the entire "The Mansion Gate", he was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, but he still couldn't find any feeling.

He wanted to sleep and rest, but when he thought of Zhang Wan, his eyes that had already started fighting were forced to widen.

There is still a daytime time, during this day, he must find a feeling.

Shao Yingxiong searched for era dramas related to the capital one by one in the huge database. Almost all of these dramas have similar prototypes, but these prototypes seem to be disadvantageous.

Just when Shao Yingxiong was about to smash the computer in a hurry, a TV series he clicked casually opened the door to hope for him.

This drama is somewhat related to "The Mansion Gate". It tells the story of the same era, where there is a down-and-out man. The name of the drama is "The Fragrance of May Lotus Flowers". In which Zhang Lin fully demonstrates Fan Wu's character, and the entire charm completely conforms to the character that Shao Yingxiong wants to find.

Seeing this, Shao Yingxiong entered a state of thinking. He wanted to be Bai Jingqi, and what should he do with such a great change in the times under such a personality?

The Jiang Wen Sect was used in the moment!

While browsing various era dramas, the lines in Shao Yingxiong's mind gradually became clear, and the structure, language structure and expression of the entire character were completely in line with each other. At that moment, a very magical thing was immediately revealed in front of him.

Shao Yingxiong saw another self under the reflection of the computer screen. That self, looking at the actor's acting skills on the screen, raised his eyebrows and half of his lips, and looked down on him. He sneered and wanted to pull him out of the computer screen and scold him... A sense of superiority, a very special sense of superiority appeared on him.

Bee, bee, bee.

The phone rang out inappropriately. It was already three in the afternoon when Shao Yingxiong picked up the phone. Just as he answered, Zhang Wan's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Young Master, how are you preparing? Get it clean up quickly. Let's go to Director Guo's house at 7 o'clock in the evening. Now I will read the script more than 100%..."

"I'm sleepy, so I'll have a sleep first."

"Hey...hey...how did I get such a thing as you..."

Dou...Dou...Dou.
