Perfect Life
Vol 2 Chapter 21: Form a band?
Some things have to be said from the beginning. ⊙,
When Yu Bojun received the script for "Alive", it was just the beginning of spring this year.
At that time, he was just lazy enough. He created a new book with a few screenwriters, and asked Lao Cao to read it. He felt that there was no big problem. Although it was still a youth city theme, he miraculously added it to it. Some of the life thoughts that Lao Cao thinks are "bullshit" and "far-fetched", anyway outsiders seem to be a mess, but he himself thinks it's more cool. So, this is the proper lab team formed and ready to start.
When the script had just arrived, Yu Bojun was busy and in a good mood. When he received it, he looked at the cover and threw it in his work backpack. Although he didn't expect too much from Li Qian's script, Li Qian's actions and words all along made his words always carry a certain weight, and Yu Bojun didn't dare to think that he was joking.
Then, the crew of his new play was quickly pulled up, the actors were also in place one after another, and the filming started smoothly.
After worshiping God, the filming officially started. Of course, he had to eat and drink a lot to boost his morale. As the director, Yu Bojun was of course a talker. After that, when I had nothing to do and couldn't fall asleep, I remembered the script and read it.
At this point, he just hadn't slept all night.
So, as soon as the new drama started, he stared at the dark circles and yawned, and was forced to let the assistant director take over for a day, while he sat on the side and thought.
The story of "Alive" is not complicated.
It is about the last years of the Shun Dynasty. There was a rich second-generation named Fugui in the countryside of Shandong. As a landlord and young master, he was addicted to gambling and eventually lost all his family property, but instead it was a blessing in disguise. After the civil uprising army occupied the area at that time , escaped doom, but then. However, he was arrested by the Shun Dynasty government at that time and went to encircle and suppress the rebel army. During this period, his mother died, and his daughter became mute because of an illness. And he. At first it was an official army, but after being captured, it became an insurgent army. After many years of running around, the insurgent army was victorious. The Republic of China government was established, and he reluctantly returned to his hometown.
But from this time, tragedy began.
His wife, Jiazhen, was unable to do heavy work because of rickets, and the burden of the whole family was on him. Not to mention, a pair of children died one after another due to various helpless tragedies, and later even a lame son-in-law died. Leaving only a young grandson called Kugen, he followed Fugui back to the countryside. But life was very difficult at the time. Even beans are hard to eat. Fugui felt bad for his grandson, so he boiled beans for Kugen, but Kugen died from eating beans...
In short, every touch of warmth in life is finally torn apart by death again and again.
Almost all kinds of bitterness in life are fermented in such a life story, and whoever sees it is too bitter to speak.
simply put. Such a story, for any director who is a little bit chasing, feels like a gluttonous person seeing a delicious meal, and there is no ability to resist at all.
Of course, film is a comprehensive art of sound, light and shadow. But a good story is the starting point and ending point of everything. And a story like "Alive" is one in ten thousand.
After reading it for the first time, Yu Bojun was convinced that some of the things he had pursued in his life were here.
Even he thinks. Once you do this, you can retire!
Therefore, he fell in at once, and stared at it for three days before he recovered.
The moment he came to his senses, he almost decided to close the stall, stop and abolish all the filming of the play at hand, and then began to polish the book called "Alive" in his hand.
However, after thinking about it, in the end, he put away this obviously scolded idea, and while trying to figure out the story back and forth, he absently began to lead this story, which in his eyes was already "bullshit" and "far-fetched". urban romance.
But at the same time, he did two things.
The first thing, he asked his assistant for a one-dollar coin, which he put in his trouser pocket very solemnly, and he took it out every day to play with it for a while;
The second thing, he actually broke his living habit of having to have a woman every night, and drove away his girlfriend at the time. After copying the script, he sent someone to send his manuscript to Cao Zhan.
Three days later, Cao Zhan called, "Pull up Qian, let's do this for the three of us!"
So, Yu Bojun's heart has a bottom.
Next, when the restlessness in his heart gradually subsided, on the surface, he seemed to have suddenly regained his soul and began to clean up the work in front of him seriously, but deep down, a fire started to burn more and more vigorously.
This fire can be held in one breath for half a year, and finally, when the filming is over, Yu Bojun immediately kills him.
…………
In the villa, Chu Bingbing added another set of cups to Yu Bojun, and then they disappeared. Only the four of them were left in Cao Zhan's study. In fact, Wang Huaiyu didn't understand movies, so he sat smiling and didn't interrupt, just listened to the three of them fighting one another there.
"Good buddy, come on, pull my brother, or I'll take it out quickly, I don't even have the heart to pick up girls, you know?"
Li Qian shook his head.
"Bo Jun is nonsense, but it is true that he likes this story. I also like this story, and I will join in! Of course, I don't know the director, and I have never been an actor, so I can just remind Bo Jun by the side. What. Qian, come on, let the three of us make a big one together! Tell you, I have seen countless movies over the years, and I have written a dozen or two scripts, but I have read this book of yours. The top three of all this kind of things, that's true!"
Li Qian smiled and shook his head.
Cao Zhan stopped persuading and picked up his pipe.
Yu Bojun asked, "Why? Don't you want to film the story you wrote?"
Li Qian replied calmly: "I do. Of course I do! But the time is not up!"
Cao Zhan's eyes widened, Yu Bojun frowned.
Li Qian said slowly: "I'm only in my second year of college, and I haven't taken the camera seriously yet. Of course, Brother Cao is a screenwriter, and I wrote the story, so it's no problem for us to fight for you. It's your duty. But, you're not ready!"
Yu Bojun was stunned when he heard the words.
But after a while, Cao Zhan Meng took a few puffs of his pipe, but nodded unexpectedly.
"That's right. What Qian said makes sense, you... are indeed not ready! This film should not be so easy to shoot!"
Cao Zhan thought while talking, his speech rate was rarely extremely slow, "This film. If no one else mentions it, there is only one male lead, and there are only a handful of male actors who can eat in China. You, you, can't keep up at all! It's not that people are disobedient, or anything else, it's mainly your understanding of the film, and you may not be able to keep up with others. At that time, you will be a The director, but can't hold back the scene, it is very likely that the filming will jump!"
Yu Bojun finally calmed down, took up the teacup and drank it, tapped his fingers on the teacup, and asked, "Then what should I do?"
Cao Zhan thought for a while, sighed, and said, "First. Put aside your urban romance movies that cheat money, make some serious work, first shoot at least one or two literary and artistic things to practice your skills, and secondly I don't shoot other genres, so I just choose such books with a strong humanistic color and unprofitable books to shoot. When you are skilled and confident, it is estimated that Qian will graduate just in time. Let's do this again. book!"
Yu Bojun tapped the teacup again and thought for a moment. He turned to look at Li Qian.
What Cao Zhan said is of course correct.
Although Yu Bojun is rich in experience, he is only shooting that kind of monotonous pure commercial films, and he is also experienced in urban romance commercial films, but the literary and artistic films are at the level of "Alive", which is enough to show the great joy and sorrow of human beings, but it is not. He can play with this experience now!
You know, the original "Alive" is Zhang Guoshi's best work!
In 1994, this film won the Jury Prize at Cannes, and Uncle Ge also won the Best Actor!
In the entire Chinese film history, this film does not dare to be the first, at least the top three are stable!
Therefore, Cao Zhan's suggestion is actually exactly what Li Qian wanted to say.
Facing Yu Bojun's questioning gaze, he nodded slowly.
…………
Brothers have dinner tonight.
Great chat.
When the wine was half full, Li Qian mentioned that he was considering whether to officially debut and release an album recently. Cao Zhan, on a whim, ran over to hold a guitar and let Li Qian sing.
Although he drank a few ounces of wine, Li Qian's voice was still within his controllable range, a little abnormal, but it still sounded good.
After listening to it, several people agreed that, let's go out!
In Yu Bojun's words: Anyway, your whole family is making records, and your two women are not easy to worry about. Even if you hide, you won't be able to hide for a few days. Now that the media is becoming more and more developed, sooner or later, you will have nothing to hide. It is better to stand up by yourself, and the media will not hold you back.
Li Qian was still hesitating, but Wang Huaiyu suddenly said: "Speaking of which, coming to Shuntian Mansion, it was too much for me to hold back, Qian, if you really want to make your debut, if you look back, if you are missing a suona or a sheng, remember to say hello. I just volunteer to help."
After he finished speaking, before Li Qian nodded, Cao Zhan suddenly said, "I suddenly feel that the four of us have such a strong relationship, why don't we just form a band to play?"
With a swipe, it seemed that a white light suddenly passed through Li Qian's mind.
Wang Huaiyu was stunned for a moment. Although he was in a hurry to talk, he seemed to be woken up suddenly, and slapped his thigh with a look of surprise, and said, "Okay!"
Then the two turned to look at Li Qian together.
Li Qian's eyes were sparkling, excited and tentative, but asked uncertainly, "Form a band? Play... rock?"
Cao Zhan also slapped his thigh sharply, "Of course you play rock! Why don't you play rock and roll?"
While speaking, he looked up at Yu Bojun.
Yu Bojun was in a state of dementia, so he quickly raised his hands, "Don't count me, I'm not a music player. Besides, I have a few more dramas to work on next, it's not like you don't know!"
While talking, he pointed at Li Qian and Cao Zhan, "You two, we just agreed, I don't care what you want to play, in short, one person will help me get a book!"
When he said this, Cao Zhan suddenly burst out laughing.
Next, Wang Huaiyu, a good old man, also laughed along, and the two of them quickly laughed until they leaned back and forth.
Yu Bojun was stunned for a moment, and then his face was helpless, while Li Qian was a little stunned.
"What are you... laughing at?" he asked.
The two continued to laugh.
After a while, Wang Huaiyu suppressed his laughter and said with difficulty: "When I talk about Bo Jun playing music, I think... I think... Hahaha! Bo Jun..." Yu Bojun, "Who said you didn't play music, tell Qian yourself, what musical instrument have you learned?"
Cao Zhan's laughter had almost stopped, but when he heard the words, he laughed again, almost unable to stop.
Yu Bojun's face was full of embarrassment, and Li Qian became more and more confused.
So, he turned to look at Yu Bojun, "Brother Yu, what musical instrument have you learned? Why do they laugh like this?"
Yu Bojun reluctantly stretched out his hand to point at Cao Zhan and Wang Huaiyu, looking like he couldn't help but hate him, "You guys are really... oh hey, I've really convinced you two! Our buddies are over!"
Li Qian became more and more curious, and pushed his arm, "What's the matter, talk about it, both of them already know about it. If you don't talk about it, why don't I ask them the same way? Talk!"
Yu Bojun was a little embarrassed, as if he didn't want to talk about life or death.
Cao Zhan and Wang Huaiyu finally stopped laughing slowly, and Wang Huaiyu bowed at Yu Bojun very embarrassedly, "Brother, brother... I'm sorry, I'm sorry! It's my brother's fault, I punish myself for three cups, Three penalties!"
Li Qian picked up his shoulders and stopped talking.
Yu Bojun turned his head to glance at him, frowned helplessly, and reluctantly said: "That's the case, our family has a rule, regardless of boys and girls, from the age of six, you must choose a musical instrument. It is said that my great-grandfather decided this The rules are because I feel that music can cultivate people's sentiments, at least not to make their children and grandchildren completely waste, even if they are lavish, at least they can have a little taste, so of course, I have to choose a musical instrument to start learning from a young age. ."
Having said this, he paused, seeing Cao Zhan and Wang Huaiyu looking at him with wicked smiles, he couldn't help but say, "You two, get drunk~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Hurry up!" Then he turned to face each other. Li Qian, who was curious, continued: "At that time, I didn't understand anything, and my dad didn't care about my business. He was drinking and talking about business all day, and then...then...my third uncle, recommend it to me. I picked up a musical instrument and said that no one in our family has ever learned that one, so if you learn that one, designate something different."
"Then, I studied for a few years. It wasn't until I was fourteen years old that I finally understood what my third uncle asked me to learn that instrument..."
After listening to him talk for a long time, but he didn't get to the point, Li Qian couldn't help but ask: "Then what kind of musical instrument did you learn? As for making Brother Cao and Brother Wang laugh like that?"
Yu Bojun shrugged helplessly, lowered his head, and said, "Xiao."
"Xiao?"
Li Qian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst out laughing.
