Chapter 1,249 Shooting Location

Human beings, it is not difficult to do bad things. What is difficult is to work conscientiously all your life and do bad things without repentance.

Some things are destined to happen, maybe this is God's arrangement. For example, if Feng Xiaogang competes with himself, he must shoot 1942. Another artist who competes with him is Zhang Guoli, who can also be said to be a late-blooming actor.

His daughter-in-law Deng Jie is a well-known and well-known actress. At a time like this, with such a wife, one can imagine the pressure on a man.

Deng Jie is the actor who plays Wang Xifeng in Dream of Red Mansions. CCTV’s version of Dream of Red Mansions is an eternal classic. No matter what it is, in such a situation, the classic image of the TV series is arranged, Deng Jie’s Sister Feng, Liu Xiaolingtong’s Great Sage Wukong, this cannot be bypassed.

Therefore, Zhang Guoli worked hard to prove himself on such an issue. It was not until Prime Minister Liu Luoguo that he truly realized what it was like to be popular, and he really turned around. From then on, he was The Avenue of Stars is smooth.

Kangxi's private interviews in private pushed his career to a new climax.

And this time, what he wanted to film was "The Fragrance of Sophora Flowers in May". This is a TV series related to antiques, and it is also a very good TV series. It is a microcosm of life in old Beijing. Very well explained. At this moment, Zhang Guoli is planning to shoot this TV series, and it is the kind of TV series that he writes, directs and stars.

The people gathered at this time were also the Golden Triangle, Zhang Guoli, Zhang Tielin, and Wang Gang. When these three people got together, they basically didn't need to use a script, and they acted like a big drama. At this time, no matter how it is said, having these three people participating in the show can be said to be a guarantee of ratings.

After all, the acting skills of these three people are impossible to ignore. But there is also a problem at this time. This is a drama set in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. In today's terms, it can be regarded as a period drama.

At that time it could still be called a play of the Republic of China, but why it was changed, only the mysterious relevant departments can explain clearly. At this time, the shooting location is a problem.

The first person Zhang Guoli found was Feng Xiaogang. After all, Zhang Guoli's connections in the capital were not as extensive as those of Feng Xiaogang, so under such circumstances, Feng Xiaogang was also a target for her to seek advice.

Zhang Guoli came over and said: "Gangzi, you have to help me with this matter. I have no choice. If it's about filming, I have no problem, but this location is hard to find. If When I go to a movie and TV city, it’s all the same and doesn’t have the flavor of Beijing. At a time like this, that’s what I want. But whether I’m in a movie or TV city, it’s not easy to find this place. Do you think there is one in Beijing? A place like this.”

Feng Xiaogang hesitated for a moment and then said: "This is really difficult. In the small area of ​​the film studio, indoor scenes can still be done. If Dashilan is closed, it will not be easy if you close the filming. However, if you want to find this kind of building , I do have a person, Ye Ming, Ye Zi’s hobby is to collect courtyards, if you find him, there will be no problem. "

Ye Ming likes to collect courtyard houses, and almost all his friends in the circle know this. Zhang Guoli and Ye Ming have collaborated before, so on such a matter, they naturally know that Ye Ming has a courtyard house, but how many courtyard houses Ye Ming has, ordinary people just don't know. Feng Xiaogang's words made Zhang Guoli feel that Ye Ming's courtyard house was indispensable.

Therefore, he hesitated and said: "Gangzi, don't you mean that Ye Ming is not a Siheyuan?" Feng Xiaogang immediately said: "I dare not say anything else. Siheyuan, this guy has at least seven or eight. The problem is, this kid is a ghost, if you find him, there is absolutely nothing wrong with him."

Regarding feelings, this is really a good idea. Zhang Guoli hesitated and said, "Well, let's see if I contact him. If it doesn't work, how embarrassing would it be? How about you help me ask first? If it works, If so, then it won’t matter if I contact him again and change.”

How does friendship come about? Friendship is established as soon as we go back and forth. If you don't keep in touch with each other for a long time, then even if the friendship was very good in the past, will there still be friendship under such a situation? , this is difficult to explain clearly.

Therefore, in such a situation, contacting more is a good way to maintain friendship. Zhang Guoli and Ye Ming do have a friendship, but in such a situation, it is not a big friendship. Therefore, on such an issue, his own worries are definitely not unnecessary.

What if it doesn’t work out? How embarrassing would that be? Feng Xiaogang immediately said: "Don't worry about this. If Ye Ming really has such a place, even if you contact him, there will be absolutely no problem. If he doesn't have this place to solve the problem, it will be impossible. He must have For a place like this, I’d better call and ask.”

There are so many courtyard houses in Ye Ming, but Feng Xiaogang himself has seen more than one. Moreover, Feng Xiaogang also introduced to Ye Ming an outer residence of Prince Su of the Qing Dynasty. This is a rare courtyard house in the capital, and Ye Ming took it early. Got off. At this moment, Feng Xiaogang recognized that Ye Ming had this kind of thing even without calling.

Immediately he made a phone call and exchanged a few words of greeting first. This is actually a problem among old Beijing people. It is impossible to say something directly. At least he first exchanged a few words of greetings and said a few words that had nothing to do with the topic. What exactly is going on.

Feng Xiaogang said firmly: "Yi Zi, Guoli is going to shoot a TV series about the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. They said they want to find a filming location. They don't want to shoot in a cookie-cutter place like a film and television city. I thought, you have a lot of them." Is there a suitable courtyard for shooting? If so, can we get one?" Feng Xiaogang was not polite to Ye Ming and expressed his thoughts.

Ye Ming also said without thinking: "There is no problem with this, but I can't even remember my courtyards. What kind of courtyards does Teacher Guoli need? It's up to you to decide. How about you ask Brother Guoli to make one?" Time, I asked people from our company to accompany me.

Forget it, I don't have anything to do recently. When Teacher Guoli has time, I'll go with you and take a look. Whichever courtyard is more suitable will be used. "

This is really exciting, no ambiguity at all. After putting down the phone, Feng Xiaogang immediately said: "How about it? I'll tell you what, Ye Zi is a happy guy. As long as he can help, if his friends come to him, he will definitely help." .

He had just talked about something like this on the phone. He couldn't even remember the yard in his hand. It depends on you when you have time. I will accompany you to pick it up and see which one is suitable for you. . "

This is a great favor. At least someone who is willing to help you when you are in trouble is considered a true friend. Zhang Guoli immediately said: "I really didn't expect that Ye Zi is so interesting. No, I have to give it to him." Give me a call and thank you.”

Feng Xiaogang immediately said: "No, how did you do this? Why did you call me now? I asked Ye Zi because you asked me, but you asked now. When people think about it later, why did you If you don't call yourself, are you saying that I'm afraid you won't agree, so you asked Feng Xiaogang to call and ask for me?

What's wrong with this Chen? Come on, you didn't start shooting in one or two days anyway. When you go to see the yard tomorrow, you'll have a treat and everything. It's not a big deal, just remember it. "

Feng Xiaogang also knew that Ye Ming was not the kind of person who cared about everything. Therefore, in such a good situation, he didn't care about it at all. There were some scene-related things that had to be done.

At this moment, Zhang Guoli suddenly thought of something and said: "Tell me, Gangzi, just now Ye Ming said that he would accompany me to make the selection in person. I heard that he is going to Hollywood to film Spielberg's Cat and Mouse Game. Why do you have time now?" Stay with me."

Feng Xiaogang waved his hand and said, "Don't mention this. This matter made Ye Ming very angry. Spielberg was just making hype. In the end, the cat-and-mouse game was still starring Tom Hanks, and Ye Ming was very angry." Mingming had nothing to do, and it was precisely because of such a thing that under such a situation, he could be said to have free time.

What the Leafs have done the most recently is to ban the cat-and-mouse game. I heard that he has been to all three places on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, so I guarantee that Cat and Mouse Game will not be released in these three places. And Huihuang.com directly removed the poster of the cat-and-mouse game.

This is a comprehensive ban, so he has time now. It just means that you don’t have much time to pay attention to this matter, so you are saying that you don’t know about this problem. Now Ye Ming does say that he has a lot of time to play. . "

Zhang Guoli has been preparing for his own TV series recently, so he is still not very clear about what happened to the outside world. There is really no way to do this. He is a focused person, and he is not very clear about what happened. It is impossible for a person who concentrates to play with TV.

Therefore, in fact, if everyone wants to succeed, it is not a fluke. They must work hard wholeheartedly. Of course, if you can't do it despite your efforts, it's not nothing, but more. It can be said that you are out of luck.

Zhang Guoli thought of this and immediately realized that this was an opportunity. His eyes lit up and he said, "Gangzi, what do you think, if I pull Ye Zi over here and play a role in my TV series, then... There should be nothing wrong with such a thing, right?

In my TV series, the characters are not very complete. Let him act in it, which can be regarded as a promotion for my TV series. "

Feng Xiaogang thought for a while and said, "There should be no problem with this. Anyway, he is said to be idle now. Beating the child on a rainy day is also idle. It is not a problem to invite him to come and play a guest role."

Not to mention that a superstar like Luo Tian can't make a guest appearance, even a veteran superstar like Ge You is not impossible to make a guest appearance. This has nothing to do with fame, it's a matter of friendship.

If you can invite celebrities, it means that you have such a relationship, so they come to guest star to give you face, not for the money, but for friendship. Therefore, if you make a guest appearance in the circle, it is a matter of friendship, not fame.

For example, inside the mansion, Mr. Guo Baochang invited Zhang Yimou and Brother Chen Kai. Is that something money can do? According to the status of Lao Chen and Lao Zhang in the entertainment industry. Even if you pay them, they may not be able to agree to come over and make a guest appearance.

This is actually a matter of friendship. And now Zhang Guoli is thinking about how to bring Ye Ming over. In fact, it is also a matter of friendship. If it is about remuneration, it is not very suitable for such a thing.

At this time, Zhang Guoli also began to think about what kind of role he wanted to invite Ye Ming to play. Soba, this is a bit inappropriate. There are more scenes. Since he is invited to make a guest appearance, then There can't be too many scenes, or is it the wrestling big brother? This is also inappropriate. There are too few scenes to show the importance of Ye Ming.

Ye Ming's cameo is also a selling point, isn't it? If there are too few scenes, then not only would I be sorry for inviting Ye Ming, but the audience may not be satisfied if they watch it. Therefore, Zhang Guoli thought about it carefully and decided to ask Ye Ming to make a guest appearance from a gangster named Hua Zi.

This gangster has some grievances with Soba, and the amount of the role is appropriate. A guest appearance, just the right amount of role, can satisfy the audience's appetite.

Zhang Guoli did not wait until the next day. He contacted Ye Ming in the evening and said that he asked Feng Xiaogang if he had any good shooting locations, and Feng Xiaogang recommended Ye Ming. The two of them agreed on a time and went to see the venue together the next day to see which place was more suitable for shooting.

This is an authentic courtyard house with a very strong flavor of the capital. Therefore, Zhang Guoli himself has to be more cautious when it comes to such a question. Ye Ming gave him face like this and allowed himself to choose. Naturally, he said that he had to choose. A most suitable place.

Otherwise, I would be sorry for the favor of opening my mouth. In the evening, Zhang Guoli discussed this matter with his wife Deng Jie. Deng Jie had a very good impression of Ye Ming. Wasn't Zhang Mo brought back by Ye Ming's help?

As for this matter, the couple felt that it was better for them to go see Ye Ming in person, which would seem to take it more seriously. (To be continued)
