Does Ning Yuan regret not being able to direct a film like "Farewell My Concubine"?

I can only say a little bit.

But it's definitely not as exaggerated as he made it out to be.

After all, it's just a script.

Maybe even after filming, we don’t necessarily know how high this film will be.

I'm afraid the original creators didn't expect this film to have such great achievements and influence, right?

It's a pity, I guess I have to wait until the film's influence becomes apparent.

"Director Zhang?"

Zhang Yu looked at Zhang Hang with some surprise as he knocked on the door and entered.

"Director Zhang."

Ning Yuan greeted quickly.

"What are you doing? I can hear your voices outside the door." Zhang Hang said casually with a smile.

"He's complaining that I gave you the copy of Farewell My Concubine." Zhang Yu said with a smile, "He wants to steal Director Zhang's job!"

"It's nothing, don't talk nonsense, or I'll sue you for slander." Ning Yuan said quickly.

There are indeed complaints, but the matter of grabbing the script is absolutely groundless.

"Are you still absent from the filming?" Zhang Hang smiled and said to Ning Yuan, "Whatever you want to film, ask your boss to write it down! Why compete with a bad old man like me?"

"Director Zhang, don't listen to his nonsense." Ning Yuan said, "There may be complaints, but if you rob him, it is pure slander."

I really want to grab it, but the question is, can I win?

Even without Zhang Hang, I'm afraid the chance of getting this film is slim.

Maybe after some research and convincing my boss, it might still be possible.

"Director Zhang, can you understand if you complain about missing such a book?" Ning Yuan continued.

Zhang Hang smiled and nodded.

I can indeed understand.

If he missed it like Ning Yuan, he would probably complain even more.

"However, Director Zhang, what you just said reminded me." Ning Yuan then looked at Zhang Yu and said, "Boss, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" has basically come to an end. What will my next film be?"

"You should first think about what you want to take pictures of?" Zhang Yu shook his head and said.

"Then let me think about it first."

Ning Yuan smiled, then said hello to Zhang Hang and went out.

He was just doing this to leave space for Zhang Hang and Zhang Yu.

Zhang Hang came to the studio, obviously planning to discuss the movie "Farewell My Concubine" with Zhang Yu.

And this is also true.

Discussing a video?

Zhang Yu is naturally not afraid.

If he writes the script, then the script is his.

He can get all the information involved in it at his fingertips.

He obviously also has a deep understanding of this film.

What's more, he is now a master-level director.

Maybe he doesn't have much experience compared to Zhang Hang, but he can still handle it just by discussing the script.

Besides, he still has the original version as a reference.

After discussing it for several days, Zhang Hang was still unsatisfied.

"I'm afraid I need you to come forward for something," Zhang Hang said, "I would like to invite Mr. Ma to be the artistic consultant of this film."

Why did you ask him to come forward?

Zhang Yu naturally understands.

It's nothing more than trying to get rid of Yang Ruoxue's relationship.

"Director Zhang brought the script to the old man, and he probably wouldn't refuse." Zhang Yu said, "Why bother?"

"Aren't I afraid that the old man will reject me?" Zhang Hang said with a smile.

Even if Mr. Ma is just a name, his influence will probably be considerable.

If nothing else, even if people in the theater circle have any dissatisfaction with this film, I'm afraid they will show mercy.

At least I won't find fault.

"Now that opera is in decline, this movie will undoubtedly make more people pay attention to opera." Zhang Yu said, "How could the old man refuse? Director Zhang, how about this? I'll ask Ruoxue to talk to the old man first, and then you can lead the way.

Write a script and come to your door?"

"That's the best." Zhang Hang nodded.

If Zhang Yu is just asked to come forward, it will inevitably lack some sincerity.

Naturally, he, the director, also needs to come forward.

Mr. Ma heard that there was such a drama, and that it was directed by Zhang Hang, a great director. While he was happy, he was also a little worried.

I am worried about whether I am professional enough in opera.

Naturally, he did not refuse Zhang Hang's invitation.

And preparations for this film began immediately.

So how to choose actors becomes a big problem.

Especially the soul character of this movie: Cheng Dieyi.

"Me?" Zhang Yu shook his head quickly and said, "I can't play Cheng Dieyi."

Zhang Yu's acting skills are impressive, but her temperament doesn't match Cheng Dieyi's at all.

He is a martial arts practitioner, and his whole personality is full of masculinity.

Let such a person play Cheng Dieyi?

Nothing feels appropriate.

Besides, he really has no interest in this role.

"Where is Duan Xiaolou?" Zhang Hang asked next.

If Zhang Yu wants to play Cheng Dieyi, he probably has to lose some of his muscles now and then see if his temperament will change.

What's more, Zhang Yu is so tall

If he played Cheng Dieyi, it would be really difficult to find a "Duan Xiaolou" to play with him.

Apart from anything else, he must be a little taller anyway.

Otherwise, there would be no such thing as "Overlord" and "Yu Ji".

However, the role of Cheng Dieyi may be a bit far-fetched, but the role of Duan Xiaolou, the "overlord", should be no problem.

"Director Zhang, I don't have a schedule!" Zhang Yu shook his head.

To play Duan Xiaolou, I might as well play Cheng Dieyi.

In Zhang Yu's opinion, Cheng Dieyi is the soul of the film "Farewell My Concubine".

"Director Zhang, I think when choosing actors, we should give priority to actors with opera skills." Zhang Yu suggested.

"You are a music student, so you should have some opera skills, right?" Zhang Hang said with a smile, "Even if you don't, you should be able to learn it faster than the average person."

"Before the filming of the film begins, there will definitely be some relevant training." Zhang Hang continued.

"I'll forget it." Zhang Yu said, "Tell the truth to Director Zhang, I plan to make a movie myself this year."

Make one yourself?

"Huh?" Zhang Hang was stunned for a moment, then looked at Zhang Yu in shock and said, "You want to be a director?"

"That's right!" Zhang Yu smiled and said, "A singer who doesn't want to be a director is not a good actor."

What and what!

However, after Zhang Hang was surprised, he was relieved.

For a person like Zhang Yu, he will not limit himself to a certain range.

He will never be willing to just be a singer or actor.

This is also a common problem among geniuses.
