Chapter 767 County Literature
After dinner, Fang Minghua was drunk and sat in Santana back to the county guest house. As soon as Zhang Jianguo left the door, Fang Minghua was about to go back to his room when he saw a white van driving into the yard.
A middle-aged man got out of the car, wearing sunglasses, a suit and a crew-neck shirt, with a golden necklace hanging around his neck that was particularly eye-catching.
Seeing Fang Minghua standing on the steps of the foyer, the man took off his sunglasses and showed a flattering smile on his face: "Are you Fang Minghua, vice chairman of the Qin Provincial Writers Association?"
"I am, you are?"
"Hello, hello, my name is Wang, Wang Dafa." The man shook hands warmly: I am the director of Shengli Coal Mine, and I brought the van to you. "
"Thank you, Boss Wang, I'd like to trouble you to make a trip in person." Fang Minghua said with a smile.
"You're welcome, how dare I neglect something arranged personally by Secretary Zhou and County Magistrate Li? Chairman Fang, are you making a movie? Great, I want to support you! I also have two BMW X7s, do you need them? I'll give them to you too. Come here, what are you doing, inspecting, it’s convenient.”
"No, no, I have my own car, thank you." Fang Minghua declined.
This boss Wang is so enthusiastic.
Of course, it was for the sake of the secretary and county magistrate.
After Boss Wang left, when Jia Zhangke and the others finished work at noon, Fang Minghua handed him the keys to the van, so that he could take back the off-road vehicle and wander around.
Fang Minghua planned to drive to the Wei Family Courtyard the next day, but unexpectedly, another group of people came. They were the deputy commissioner in charge of publicity in the city, the chairman of the Municipal Federation of Literary and Art Circles, and the chairman of the Writers Association. There was another guest-host meeting and banquet. In the evening Sing.
Later, Tian Dongzhao, vice chairman of the Jin Provincial Writers Association, brought several people from Taiyuan to meet with him. Some writers from Jin Province came here to meet him. Fang Minghua kept socializing in the past few days and got drunk one day.
Finally, a week later, Fang Minghua's world was clean.
This guy originally wanted to go out and relax, but he didn't expect that he would have more fun and debauchery than he did in Xijing City. It seems that he won't dare to run around in the future.
Fang Minghua was lying on the bed and thinking to himself.
"Xiao Wu" has been filming for more than a week, and Fang Minghua has never been to the filming location, so he decided to go and check it out today.
Today is a scene in the bathroom. If the male protagonist Wang Hongwei plays the role, and there is a scene with LUO, even though he is a male, the scene must be cleared. It turns out that the people in Fenyang who like to watch the excitement during the filming were driven away, so only The rest of the film crew.
Fang Minghua drove over and parked the car outside the bathroom. When he went in, he found that the filming had been finished. Wang Hongwei was covered in a coat, trembling all over and complaining that the water was too cold.
Fang Minghua didn't interrupt, just watched quietly.
He suddenly remembered that in later generations, "county literature" became popular in short videos and also penetrated into popular movies and TV shows.
Speaking of "county aesthetics", many people will point to Jia Zhangke's "Xiao Wu" and other works. He himself became the originator of "county literature".
However, those texts or videos of later generations are just a kind of nostalgia, and the aesthetic trend under the filter has a feeling of "forcing new words to express sorrow".
But Jia Zhangke truly reflects this era.
There is desire in confusion, but there is vitality in decline and backwardness.
Fang Minghua was having random thoughts, and the filming was paused at this time.
The prop master hurriedly arranged other props and environments. Jia Zhangke finally took a rest and sat silently on a small chair with a cigarette in his mouth.
Fang Minghua discovered something strange.
After being in contact with him for a while, I found out that Jia Zhangke is actually a person who can liven up the atmosphere. At night, I often hear the sounds of several men bragging and spanking coming from the room where he lives.
"Zhang Ke, what's wrong? The filming didn't go well?" Fang Minghua asked with concern.
Jia Zhangke shook his head, took out a document from his pocket and handed it to Fang Minghua: "Teacher Minghua, look, this is from my classmate from Yanjing."
Fang Minghua took it and looked at it. It was a copy. It was a red-headed document from the relevant department. The title of the document was very eye-catching: "Notice on not supporting or assisting Zhang Yuan and others in the filming and post-processing of film and television films."
The names of seven people are clearly written in the document:
Zhang Yuan, Wang Xiaoshuai, He Jianjun, Wu Wenguang, Shi Shi, Tian Zhuangzhuang and Ning Dai!
"Afraid?"
Fang Minghua asked.
Jia Zhangke nodded.
I was really scared.
This is not about banning a certain film, but directly banning a person!
Fang Minghua was not surprised, but said calmly: "Shengshi Film and Television has received this document a long time ago, and we have not cooperated with Wang Xiaoshuai since we made the movie "Extreme Cold"."
"But don't worry, feel free to shoot your movie." Fang Minghua patted his shoulder: "After the filming is completed, I will handle the application for the Dragon Award for you."
"Thank you, Teacher Minghua." Jia Zhangke looked grateful.
"You're welcome, I'm a producer, I have to play a role, right?" Fang Minghua said with a smile.
"Okay, go ahead and get busy. I won't disturb you anymore." Fang Minghua was about to leave after saying that, but when he saw the deputy director Zhang Xi hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words in Jia Zhangke's ear, Jia Zhangke's expression became serious again. He stood up, with a bit of anger in his eyes.
"What happened?" Fang Minghua stopped and asked.
"Director Zhang said that Zuo Wenlu will stop performing." Jia Zhangke replied.
"Stop? Why?" Fang Minghua was a little strange. He had a good impression of the girl who was half his hometown.
The family conditions are relatively good and things have always gone smoothly. However, the character Hu Meimei played this time is actually a young lady even though she is a singer. Zuo Wenlu was very attentive in playing this role that was very inconsistent with her own image.
"She felt that throughout the movie, her role as Hu Meimei was too inconspicuous, and she always felt a sense of loss," Zhang Xi explained. "And..."
"What else?" Fang Minghua asked.
"I feel like she is not satisfied with the remuneration and feels it is a bit low." Zhang Xi said.
"Zhang Ke, you signed remuneration contracts with all the actors, right?" Fang Minghua asked.
"That's for sure, but the remuneration is low. Zuo Wenlu is the highest, with 30,000 yuan. When we were young, each of us could only get 2,000 yuan in the end. She just came to help." Jia Zhangke explained.
Thirty thousand yuan is indeed not high.
After hearing this, Fang Minghua pondered for a moment and said: "Well, Director Zhang, please tell Zuo Wenlu that since you have signed the contract, you must strictly abide by the contract. If you want to increase the price, if you still want to act in the next film, you can It’s not too late! This is it, don’t you want to just pack up and leave?”
"If you feel dissatisfied with the script, Zhang Ke, please tell her more about the structure of the play, and explain the importance of this role from a feminist perspective. Anyway, I think this role is quite important, but she If you still don’t listen, let her go!”
"At worst, we will find new people and start filming again! Shengshi Film and Television will invest additional money! In a word, the rules cannot be broken!"
"Two people left in a row" shocked both Jia Zhangke and Zhang Xi.
Unexpectedly, Fang Minghua, who is usually very gentle, sometimes does things neatly and neatly, leaving no room for anything.
"Okay! Let's go talk!" The two said in unison.
"Okay, you guys are busy, I'm leaving." Fang Minghua turned around and walked out.
Jia Zhangke did not reveal the outcome of his conversation with Zuo Wenlu to Fang Minghua, but the girl continued filming with the crew and never heard anything else from her.
The crew had nothing to do, so Fang Minghua drove around and wandered around. He went to the Wei Family Courtyard, Wenfeng Pagoda, Wuyue Temple, and Xinghua Village. Where is it? The shepherd boy points to Xinghua Village in the distance."
While Fang Minghua was driving his car around the land of Shanxi Province, feeling at ease and at ease, Jeff Bezos, thousands of miles away in Seattle, was also very proud.
Because Amazon is finally going public.
