Chapter 1161 Coppola's Wine

Sofia Coppola's attention was caught by Yang Cheng's comments on the godfather. As the protagonist of tonight's party, she has been busy receiving guests, so she has time to eat and rest. Didn't she hear Yang Cheng just after she came back? He talked about it there, and what he was talking about was the work that his father was most proud of.

"In The Godfather 3, old Mike has gray hair and a thin face.

Al Pacino's performance reduces the dangerous elements of the characters, and what people see is a sense of powerlessness that is impossible to get rid of sin.

Through this third film, Al Pacino completed the image of Mike in a very deep way from beginning to end, and it was not until the end of the third film that the role of Mike became a classic and a textbook character.

At the end of the movie, the silent wail of his daughter after being killed by mistake is Al Pacino's perfect interpretation of Mike's fateful tragic life. "

Sofia Coppola couldn't hold back and said, "That's right, there is a kind of fascinating cruelty in the character of Mike, which is inseparable from Al Pacino himself who shaped this image.

His early life was very unfortunate. He was born in a poor and humble family. His parents divorced when he was young. He was brought up by his maternal grandparents. He was not allowed to go out until he was 6 years old.

Al avoided school and reading when he was young, but he was lucky enough to come into contact with acting. He had the opportunity to appear on stage when he was a teenager. Only he graduated from high school, which is a combination of misfortune and luck.

When he was about 26 years old, he was still working as a building security guard.

Still hitting walls in his 30s, 'how many miles does a boy have to walk to be a man', Al has had the same ups and downs as he made Mike, a man who has weathered, survived and succeeded, life has taught him how Acting, in a way, Al is Mike and Mike is Al. "

Yang Cheng turned around when she heard the sound, "Good evening Sophia, I haven't congratulated you yet." They met at a dinner party before.

Sophia stepped forward to hug Yang Cheng close to each other, and readily accepted Yang Cheng's thanks, "Thank you, I'm sorry I interrupted your performance."

"It's nothing, your supplement is just right."

Francis impatiently interrupted the greetings between the two, "Okay, let's talk about the movie."

Sophia smiled helplessly at Yang Cheng, took a step back, and returned the stage to Yang Cheng.

"The outside world's evaluation of "The Godfather 3" is not as good as the first two. There are many reasons, and I will not go into details one by one, but in my opinion, "The Godfather 3" is an inseparable part of the trilogy. .

In this one, the godfather listened to his son singing Sicilian ballads, and Mike, who was in his old age, took off his glasses and wiped the corners of his eyes, but I didn't see tears. Maybe this man will never let the tears flow, or he just Let the tears flow in my heart.

The smile of the girl who used to be his wife came to mind again, and it seemed like a moment in her life.

The girl who died unexpectedly made Mike unable to find peace and plainness. He was destined to walk on the path he hated before, and could only gaze at the tranquility on the other side occasionally in the smoky rivers and lakes.

Resist, compromise, control, just like his father, the apple falls...falls from the deck chair...the hero will also end.

This age, like his people, is cruel and charming.

He has tasted the beauty of the world, and with his father, brother, mother, sister, wife and children, and friends,

All he did was to protect his family like a father, but in the end everyone left him.

He has also been to hell, and left his family, trust, etc. there forever.

A hero who is a stranger and a beauty who is twilight, there is always something that makes people miserable and unbearable.

But Mike, the complete shredding and destruction is another kind of immortality.

In "The Godfather 3", Mike wanted his son Anthony to follow the path he had arranged, but Anthony refused. I don't know if Mike would remember the moment when he was ordered to die in the midst of the storm, would he remember that he shot and killed his opponent at the dining table? changed from then on.

The first-generation godfather and the third-generation godfather started their careers by shooting randomly in the parade, while the second-generation godfather also took the initiative to shoot, but it always makes people feel that he is helpless against fate.

Mike spent his whole life trying to legalize it, but, 'Every time I think I'm out, they pull me back in'.

But Mike, who uttered this classic line, also realized the toughness of fate. Calluses, no longer the luster of youth, he is old! "

Yang Cheng used the beauty of the language of country Z in this analysis, which was recognized by Francisco Coppola. He seemed a little moved. No one had ever described "The Godfather" in such a beautiful and vivid language.

Like the late Mike, Francis found a sense of confidant identity from this young man who could be his grandson.

Sophia even showed the sensibility of a woman, her eyes were reddish, like a dramatist, she took Yang Cheng's arm and said, "That's very good, I think this passage can be used as a classic film review of "The Godfather". This movie lives on.”

Yang Cheng sweated profusely, passed it, passed it, really passed it, "I can't afford it, this is just a feeling from the heart of a movie fan, it can't be great."

As expected of a great director, Francis calmed down quickly, but he personally poured a glass of red wine for Yang Cheng, "Have a drink, we need alcohol to regulate our emotions at this time."

Yang Cheng took it, and they clinked glasses, then instinctively put the mouth of the cup in front of their noses and sniffed it, took a small sip, and felt the taste of this red wine with the tip of their tongues.

I couldn't help frowning, "What brand of wine is this? I seem to be drinking it for the first time~"

If it was an ordinary red wine, he wouldn't ask too much. It was precisely because the quality of this wine was quite good, but it was an impression he had never had in his mind that made him so curious.

Coppola and his daughter smiled at each other, and Sophia asked, "Don't worry about the brand, let's give some comments first?"

Yang Cheng didn't know why, but he took a sip and savored the taste carefully, "If I'm not wrong, this wine should be produced in Napa Valley, because of the sunshine in California, the red wine produced in Napa Valley has a rich taste. , mature tannins, and the full-bodied structure and unrestrained style of the Cabernet Sauvignon wine itself all prove that this is an excellent wine.

Is this a new brand? "

When he said this, he took another sip, but then changed his tone, "No, such a strong taste is impossible without more than 15 years of aging, it doesn't look like a new brand."

Looking up at the playful smiles of Coppola's father and daughter, he couldn't help but smiled wryly, "OK, it's time to reveal the mystery."

Francis laughed, "I am so lucky today to meet such interesting young people. In fact, you are right. This is my own brand. Since the 1970s, I have started to acquire Napa Valley's The winery has been drinking within the family before, and it was only in recent years that it began to be sold on a small scale in the market."

Yang Cheng suddenly said, "That's no wonder, with the quality of this wine, as long as it is well promoted, it will sell well."

Sophia continued, "Father plans to recommend this wine to the Oscar dinner."

"This is a good idea. The Oscar awards ceremony is an excellent opportunity for brand promotion for wine merchants. However, this is a sweet pastry that can only be grabbed by big-name and powerful companies. If Mr. Coppola wants to compete, I am afraid it will take A small price to pay."

Yang Cheng is not exaggerating. Just last year, Snow White Champagne, one of the world's three major champagne brands, replaced Dilong Champagne as the special champagne for the opening ceremony of the Oscars, with a three-year contract.

Snow White champagne was once the favorite of Hollywood actress Marilyn Monroe. She once said: "I use Chanel No. 5 perfume and drink Snow White champagne."

As for the wine supplier, Yang Cheng remembers that it is also from the Sterling Winery in Napa Valley, USA. They have provided various wines for the Oscars for 12 consecutive years. No matter how influential Coppola is, he cannot block others. money.

However, since he came here today, he doesn't mind establishing a good relationship with this top family in Hollywood, so he took it as a good relationship, so he said, "Well, the Amman Hotel under my name can purchase a The aged wine from Picoppola Winery, as a welcome wine for the hotel, cannot be inferior to the one we are drinking now.”

Francis looked serious, "No problem, you can send someone to my winery to sign the contract at any time, and there is a batch of inventory in the wine cellar, which can be bottled and shipped to all parts of the world at any time."

After a pause, the "Godfather" of Hollywood said again, "As a thank you, I will take care of your family's wine from now on."

The principle of reciprocity is the principle of reciprocity, and the old beauty is also very slippery. Isn't the relationship thing that can only be formed by holding each other? So he didn't think about refusing at all, and accepted it happily.

Afterwards, Yang Cheng started a social trip, wandering around the party with Selena Gomez on her arm, saying hello to those who are famous and those who are not. After all, Yang Cheng and Coppola just chatted for so long. It also attracted the attention of some caring people. When they learned that Yang Cheng was still the famous young Chinese rich man, they became more interested in making friends.

After the party, Yang Cheng said very gentlemanly that he wanted to send Silly Face Na home, but the other party firmly said no.

Yang Cheng is not angry at all. He understands that this is the favorite routine of young American girls. With a passion for playing 4~1~9, but only this time, everyone is talking about passion, not emotion.

After returning to the manor, Yang Cheng called White and informed him that he would receive the red wine from Coppola Winery tomorrow. In addition, he called the Amman Hotel and asked them to draft a purchase contract, and immediately sent someone to Los Angeles to communicate with Coppola signed the contract and fulfilled his promise, then washed up and went to sleep, looking forward to the arrival of a new day.
