Chapter 734 "The King of Comedy"

Bright Entertainment Company.

In a small conference room.

At this time, two people were communicating about acting issues.

These two people are Ma Guoliang and Zhou Can.

The protagonist of Mr. Tan's next movie is himself, which is an important opportunity for him, but more importantly, Zhou Can does not want Mr. Tan to be disappointed with his performance.

During the original interview at Bright Entertainment Company, only Mr. Tan was interested in his acting style.

Zhou Can appears to be extremely serious, and he will carefully write down anything that is helpful to his performance in his notebook.

During this period of time, Zhou Can finally understood why so many people called Ma Guoliang a drama fanatic.

He asked many people for advice, and what he gained most was from Ma Guoliang.

Ma Guoliang pays more attention to real experience when acting. Just like when he played the barking dog in "Lotus Lantern", he observed the dog's every move every day.

"Thank you, Teacher Ma. I will go back today and absorb it well." Zhou Can said.

Ma Guoliang drank some water to moisten his throat and said, "Well, see you later."

Watching Zhou Can leave, Ma Guoliang fell into deep thought.

Zhou Can's current performance style can be said to be a bit exaggerated, but it is his performance style that is rare in the entire entertainment industry.

This also makes it difficult for Zhou Can to gain anything from the roles he takes.

However, after long-term contact, he found that this kind of performance is quite interesting.

If there is nothing wrong with the acting style, then the same movie is needed.

Since Mr. Tan plans to let Zhou Can play the protagonist of the next movie, it must be a movie style that is harmonious with Zhou Can's performance.

Ma Guoliang has been following Tan Yue for so long, and he knows clearly that Mr. Tan never fights an unprepared battle.

Ma Guoliang is also gradually looking forward to Mr. Tan's next movie, wondering whether it will surprise the audience again.

Zhou Can found an empty room and carefully studied some of the acting experiences Ma Guoliang told him.

He was very grateful to Ma Guoliang.

Although following Ma Guoliang was a task assigned to him by Tan Yue.

But after such a long time, he could feel that Ma Guoliang was very attentive and would impart all his useful experience to him.

Moreover, the movie "Garland Under the Mountain" starring Ma Guoliang has just set a new box office record in Chinese film history. His status and status are no longer comparable to those of ordinary actors.

In such an environment, Zhou Can can still take himself so seriously as an actor who is at the bottom of the list of second-tier public figures. Zhou Can respects him from the bottom of his heart.

Zhou Can looked at the contents of a notebook that were densely recorded. They were all things he had recorded during this period of time.

To him, this was wealth that money could not buy.

He once questioned his own performance method and tried to change it.

But other performance methods made him very uncomfortable.

But this time Mr. Tan said that what others needed was his kind of performance that others called exaggerated.

…

…

…

In Tan Yue's office.

Tan Yue sneezed, took out a tissue from the table, and wiped his nose. Tan Yue secretly thought, wondering who was talking about him at this time, maybe it was the crazy female fan mentioned at the front desk? Or maybe it's Momo or Chen Ziyu?

Tan Yue shook his head funnyly, how could he just think of lesbians? Maybe he promised to have a drink with him.

His mind was wandering for a while, which gave him some relaxation. He was really thinking about a lot of things in the past few days, and his mind was spinning so fast that he felt like he was overusing his brain.

"Garlands Under the Mountain" has come to an end, and he can start thinking about the next direction. The general direction has been set, which is to promote Zhou Can as a Stephen Chow-style comedy king.

What Tan Yue is hesitating about now is which of Stephen Chow's movies to shoot. As the king of comedy and a representative of Chinese films, Stephen Chow has starred in and directed too many movies, and the quality of each one is very high, including many. A large number of classics in Chinese-language films.

In particular, Tan Yue not only has to consider the audience and performance of the film in the previous life, but also considers that if the filming techniques and styles of the previous life are copied, then he must consider whether it can achieve great success in this world like the previous life? After all, the two worlds are very different.

The nonsensical style was accepted by many audiences in the previous life on Earth, but it does not mean that it will be accepted by the audience in this world. Moreover, even in the previous life, Stephen Chow was not popular from the beginning. His nonsensical style The style was only determined after it slowly became popular.

So what Tan Yue is thinking now is to choose a movie to shoot that is novel and unique but easy to be accepted by audiences around the world.

This requires choosing from Stephen Chow's many representative films.

In his previous life, Tan Yue was a fan of Stephen Chow. Among all the movies shot by Stephen Chow, Tan Yue has only one "The Wind Catcher" that he has not watched, and he has watched all the other movies.

Even Tan Yue now has to admit the excellence of Stephen Chow and his extremely high talent in comedy.

From a certain aspect, Zhou Xingchi is somewhat similar to Ma Guoliang in terms of personality. They are both obsessed with filming and ignore the sophistication of people.

Some people say that Stephen Chow has a best actor every year and Stephen Chow for a century. Although this may not be accurate, it just illustrates Stephen Chow's status in the hearts of movie fans.

Without Stephen Chow in comedy movies, the entire comedy movie genre would be eclipsed.

"Which movie should I choose?"

Tan Yue folded his arms across his chest, leaned back in his office chair, and thought slowly.

……

……

The next day.

Zhou Can separated from Ma Guoliang again, and on the way back, he thought about many things in his mind. During this period, he humbly asked many old actors and seniors in the company for advice, learning how to play a scene well and how to improve his acting skills faster. Among them, he spent the longest time learning from Ma Guoliang.

Zhou Can was grateful for the many things that Ma Guoliang had given him during this period. He knew that these were the advanced experiences summed up by Ma Guoliang himself. These were treasures that were priceless. Even if Zhou Can broke his head in other places, it would be difficult to learn. It was just that Ma Guoliang's character was not private, so he would generously give it to him.

Ma Guoliang has too many advantages, although he also has many disadvantages, such as speaking directly, being dull, not good at socializing, and easily offending people.

But the flaws do not cover up the merits, which cannot cover up his own advantages. In Zhou Can's view, there are too many things in Ma Guoliang that are worth learning, and he has also learned a lot from Ma Guoliang, which is of great benefit to him, and he can even use it in this life.

After returning to his office, Zhou Can sat behind his desk, thinking about his arrangements for the next period of time.

If it was a month ago, he really wouldn't think too much, because he had given up on himself a little. He never thought about it and would never think that one day he could be the protagonist in Mr. Tan's movie.

Some time ago, Tan Yue found him and said that the next movie to be filmed would be shot with him as the protagonist.

When Zhou Can heard the news, he was stunned. The first thing he felt was confusion, and the second was surprise. He really couldn't think of why Mr. Tan would ask him to be the protagonist, and what advantages did he have?

Especially during this period of time, studying with Teacher Ma Guoliang, Zhou Can became more and more aware of the huge gap between himself and Teacher Ma Guoliang. Teacher Ma Guoliang can be the protagonist in Mr. Tan's movie, what is his basis?

Zhou Can didn't have much contact with Ma Guoliang before, mainly because Ma Guoliang is relatively withdrawn and introverted. Except after drinking, he rarely talks to others.

In the past, I only knew that Ma Guoliang was very good and had great acting skills. Now, after a long time of contact, Zhou Can feels that Ma Guoliang is incredible. Now he can be said to be successful, but Ma Guoliang still works hard to practice his acting skills and basic skills.

"I really learned a lot of useful things from Teacher Ma Guoliang." Zhou Can was thinking about whether to find a time to invite Ma Guoliang to have a meal together to express his gratitude to him.

I just heard from some friends that Ma Guoliang will become another person after drinking, and his mouth will chatter non-stop, which is terrible.

This change of Ma Guoliang is very exciting to think about. Zhou Can is actually a little expectant and curious. Will such a dull person really become another person after drinking?

...

...

Two days later.

After repeated considerations over the past few days, Tan Yue finally decided to shoot "The King of Comedy".

Tan Yue stood up, walked to the window, put his hands in his trouser pockets, looked into the distance, and the general plot of "The King of Comedy" emerged in his mind.

In the past, some people believed that the film "The King of Comedy" tells the story of Yin Tianchou, who has a special liking for comedy, and the dancer Liu Piaopiao gradually develop feelings for each other. Later, with the help of Du Juaner, Yin Tianchou finally got the opportunity to play the leading role, but fell into the whirlpool of a love triangle with Liu Piaopiao and Du Juaner.

But Tan Yue felt that if it was just such a bloody love triangle story, "The King of Comedy" would not be so prominent, and this movie would not become the pinnacle of director Stephen Chow.

In addition to depicting the love between Liu Piaopiao and Yin Tianchou, the play "The King of Comedy" also has the main line of Yin Tianchou's pursuit of his dream. For this autobiographical film, Stephen Chow has made great efforts to show the hesitation and persistence of an unknown little man in his struggle.

"The King of Comedy" shows a very meticulous directorial style. In this film, even a small supporting role, and even the supporting role of the supporting role, are very colorful.

For example, in the movie, there is a child without pants in the neighborhood, a girl holding a doll, an old man singing Cantonese opera in English, and Mr. Hong's grandmother, etc.

In "The King of Comedy", Stephen Chow plays Yin Tianchou, a temporary actor who has experienced the bitterness of the world but is still obsessed with acting. Through the creation of this role, Stephen Chow showed the audience another side of his acting talent: it turns out that laughter can also bring tears.

After thinking about everything about "The King of Comedy", Tan Yue turned back to the back of his desk, opened the drawer, and took out the notebook he had prepared from the drawer. He now has two main ways to write scripts, one is to write on the computer, and the other is to write in a notebook.

But now more often, he is still used to combining these two methods, using computers to create in some places and notebooks to write in other places.

"The King of Comedy" can be said to be Stephen Chow's peak work. With this movie, Stephen Chow truly became the recognized "King of Comedy" and won many awards.

Tan Yue wrote the outline of "The King of Comedy" in a notebook in pencil so that he could change it at any time.

The details of the script were quickly typed on the word in the computer with the keyboard. Tan Yue wrote a little slowly, but this was the result he wanted. There was no need to write so fast and he was not in a hurry.

Zhou Can is now learning acting from Ma Guoliang, and he needs to give Zhou Can some time to practice slowly so that he can shoot better during the filming process.

While writing the script, Tan Yue recalled the general plot of the movie "The King of Comedy" in his mind, as well as the characters and environment in it.

The movie "The King of Comedy" can be said to have brought Stephen Chow's nonsensical style to the extreme. One of the reasons why Tan Yue took a fancy to Zhou Can at the beginning was because Zhou Can's performance style was similar to the nonsensical comedy style.

This way of acting is also very important. At least Tan Yue has come into contact with so many actors, and he has only seen it in Zhou Can.

It is also because of this that Tan Yue is not in a hurry. Zhou Can is not yet capable of taking on the burden of the protagonist and needs to practice more.

…

…

In the next few days, everything went on in an orderly manner. Tan Yue was writing a script in his office, and Zhou Can went to see Ma Guoliang every day. Strangely enough, Ma Guoliang was a loner, and people often came to see him, but he would hide far away for fear of disturbing himself. But when Zhou Can came to see him, he would accompany Zhou Can to practice acting, teaching by example.

This made Zhou Can learn a lot, and also made the relationship between the two people closer.

In the past, Ma Guoliang went to the cafeteria to eat alone, but now there are two people, and Zhou Can will accompany him to the cafeteria to eat.

Tan Yue occasionally saw this situation, and he was quite happy in his heart, because in an accidental idea before Tan Yue, he suddenly felt that he could make Ma Guoliang and Zhou Can a partner, just like Stephen Chow and Ng Man-tat in his previous life.

This pair is a golden pair, if Ma Guoliang and Zhou Can can be combined. This is not a matter of one plus one equals two.

Tan Yue was in a good mood, he did not expect that his accidental action could actually lead to the emergence of a golden pair.

During this period, Tan Yue was writing the script of "The King of Comedy" every day. After dealing with the company's affairs, he would devote all his energy to the creation of the script as soon as he had time. However, he could not stay in the company to write the script today because the symposium that Ye Wen had arranged with him was held today.
