"Has he gone?" after Jia Yapeng left, a great beauty came out of Zhou Xingxing's room and said with some fear, "how can you invite him here at this time? What if he finds out the relationship between us?"
"You came to my house suddenly. I asked him out yesterday!" Zhou Xingxing fondly touched the woman's head.
"Did he ask you to make a movie? This is the script?" the great beauty picked up the script from Zhou Xingxing's hand and asked curiously, "how about this script?"
"I don't know, I haven't seen it yet!" Zhou Xingxing shook his head.
"Let me see first!" the great beauty opened the script directly, and then found that page 1 was actually the list of actors suggested by each role in the script.
The leading one is "Hero: Supreme treasure Monkey King, to invite Mr. Zhou Xingxing to play“
Then the second is "heroine: Zixia fairy, Ms. Zhu Yin is to be invited!"
"Oh, my God, the boss wrote my name on it. I'm the heroine. He wants to invite me to play the heroine. It's so interesting!!!" the great beauty looked at the script and couldn't help laughing.
You know, Zhu Yin is not a big star at this time. Her sense of existence in Hong Kong is a little low. She really didn't expect that Jia Yapeng would invite herself to play the heroine of the film, which made Zhu yinton feel very happy.
"Really? It's just your name. Did he find anything?" Zhou Xingxing's expression was also very surprised.
"You think too much. He is a mainlander. How can he know that we are together? Few people in Hong Kong know!" Zhu Yin said disapprovingly. "I think he just found my ability, so he invited me to play the heroine!"
"Hmm!" Zhou Xingxing nodded and then stopped talking. Zhu Yin began to read the script very carefully because she found that the heroine had invited herself to play.
"This script is so messy!"
"This story doesn't make sense. It actually changed the journey to the West like this!"
"God, it's not Tang monk who falls in love with spider spirit, but Sun Wukong!"
Looking at the script, Zhu Yin kept making bursts of surprised voices. Zhou Xingxing shook his head and thought that this script was probably like this. It was not a good script.
But unconsciously, Zhu Yin had no comment, but heard a trace of sobbing.
Zhou Xingxing was startled. He looked over and found that his woman had cried into tears.
"It's so touching! The story is so touching. Poor Zixia fairy, and you villain, why don't you wake up earlier!!" Zhu Yin suddenly hit Zhou Xingxing's chest with a small fist.
"Don't make trouble..." this time, Zhou Xingxing was a little surprised. Although Zhu Yin is a more emotional girl, he made Zhu Yin cry with only one script. Isn't this script a comedy, but a tragic film?
This suddenly attracted Zhou Xingxing's interest.
"Have you finished? Show me!" Zhou Xingxing took the script from Zhu Yin's hand and began to read it carefully. At this time, he saw that it was dark until more than eight o'clock in the evening. Zhou Xingxing suddenly woke up from the world of the script and found that Zhu Yin had prepared a table of rich dishes.
"How about this book?" Zhu Yin asked curiously when he saw his beloved man.
"What about you? Do you want to answer?" asked Zhou Xingxing.
"Hmm!" Zhu Yin nodded. "First of all, I like the script and Zixia fairy very much. Also, I want to be a heroine. I don't want to play a supporting role again!"
"It took me eight years to become the hero of the film. You're only two years. The speed is really fast enough!" Zhou Xingxing said with emotion.
"Do you take it or not?" Zhu Yin asked again.
"Take it!" Zhou Xingxing nodded. "Although the script is very messy, the story is also very messy, and the end is still a tragedy. But this is actually the story I want to play!"
As we all know, Zhou Xingxing is an outstanding comedian, but any actor doesn't like to be fixed in the same routine, so Zhou Xingxing also wants to find his own breakthrough. He wants to play a tragedy, a role somewhat different from the past, so that he can really break through himself.
But Zhou Xingxing is a little afraid. If he rashly changes people's settings, will his future just set sail be ruined.
The journey to the West perfectly meets Zhou Xingxing's needs in this regard. Before the final showdown, it was a standard nonsense comedy film, but until the end, the moment Zixia died, the sublimation of the whole story was completed in an instant and turned into an unbroken tragedy.
So in fact, this is a tragicomedy. Happy belly hurts and sad people break their intestines. Zhou Xingxing wants to challenge this film.
"Why do you want to play?" Zhu Yin asked curiously.
"Because when I was a child, I hated Tang monk!" Zhou Xingxing smiled "The Tang monk doesn't have any skills. He depends entirely on the monkey king to protect him. But he talks a lot and tortures the monkey king with all kinds of hoop spells, so I hate the Tang Monk very much. I often think that if I were the monkey king, I must find a chance to break his head with a golden cudgel while the Tang monk is sleeping, so that the whole world is quiet!"
"Oh, you're cruel!" Zhu Yin looked at Zhou Xingxing with some fear, and Zhou Xingxing patted her head and said, "well, it's all lying to you!"
"I'll discuss something with you. It's raining outside. Can I not go today?" Zhu Yin whispered.
"No, I'll see President Jia tomorrow!" Zhou Xingxing said dryly.
"Well, you has the final say!" Zhu sighed. He accompanied the Zhou star to a meal. He took a pair of sunglasses and masks, and secretly walked away from the back door of the villa, sitting in a car.
The next day, Jia Yapeng, who was still worried, received a call from Zhou Xingxing. Zhou Xingxing really invited Jia Yapeng to dinner in a tea restaurant.
After some courtesy, Zhou Xingxing said, "Mr. Jia, I don't know how much money you plan to invest in this film?"
"I don't know, because I haven't calculated the cost of the play, but I can give you eight words: keep improving, don't top it," Jia Yapeng said.
"OK, I see that almost all the actors you want to invite have been listed in your script, but the name in the director column has been painted out by you. I don't know who you plan to invite as the director?" Zhou Xingxing asked curiously.
"I was going to invite Liu Zhengwei, but he has refused me!" Jia Yapeng sighed. "I don't know if Xingye has any suggestions?"
"Let me recommend?" Zhou Xingxing was stunned, then shook his head and said, "I don't know. I'm only responsible for acting. I can't recommend anyone!"
"I don't know if Mr. Zhou is interested in directing and acting by himself?" President Jia asked again. This is Jia Yapeng's answer after thinking for a long time.
In fact, Zhou Xingxing is also an excellent director, which can be seen from his later directing skills. Therefore, when Liu Zhengwei is unwilling to direct, it seems that only Zhou Xingxing is the most suitable.
"I... forget it..." Zhou Xingxing hesitated for a moment and seemed to have some intention, but finally shook his head and said, "this can't work. I can't be a director. My ability is not enough."
"Then there's some trouble!" President Jia scratched his head. Can he still be trapped by a director?
"Mr. Jia, who is the screenwriter of this script?" Zhou Xingxing suddenly said. "In fact, I think the screenwriter who wrote this script is the best director of this film."
"Why do you say that?" President Jia was stunned. It seems that in the original history, Liu Zhengwei is a screenwriter and director.
"Because it doesn't look like a script written by a professional screenwriter, but like a script written by a director!" Zhou Xingxing said "In a normal script, there is only the switching between lines and scenes. However, the script is not professional. Not only the scenes and lines are written, but also how to use the lens, from which angle to shoot, how the characters' emotions and what actions to make are written in the script."
"I think the person who can write such a script must be an excellent director, because when he writes this script, he already has a complete film picture in his head. He just needs to shoot the picture in his mind. This is the best director, and there is no need to find others!" Zhou Xingxing said.
"What if the screenwriter is non professional and doesn't have any director experience?" Jia Yapeng couldn't help asking.
"Well..." Zhou Xingxing was stunned. He thought the screenwriter himself was a professional director.
"If so, you can ask an assistant director to help him. Ask a professional Deputy Director to be responsible for all the specific shooting and command work in the crew, and the director only needs to be responsible for the construction of pictures and actions. In this way, a layman can quickly adapt to the director's work. In fact, many directors come from laymen!" Zhou Xingxing said.
He was right. None of the directors in Hong Kong graduated from a college. They all studied on the set and became professional directors.
Some directors still rush to the shelves directly. After all, when Hong Kong and Hong Kong films were the most popular, there were more than 200 films released a year. This is a huge demand for directors. How can there be so many professional directors for them.
Hearing Zhou Xingxing's words, President Jia nodded thoughtfully. It seems that President Jia can develop a new professional ability again.
