Zhao Yazhi has been feeling uneasy at home recently. Although she has no new dramas to prepare now, she doesn't have to worry about having no money to spend.
Wu Changyun offered her a good salary and she received a monthly salary.
It is precisely because of this that Zhao Yazhi, who is as idle as a rich lady every day, has recently become the subject of gossip.
The source of this gossip was one of her sisters. One day, this sister said to Zhao Yazhi: "Oh, you have a good life. You can make money without working."
Zhao Yazhi felt that their relationship was pretty good, so she treated it as a joke.
"Little sister, I think you should be careful. You should know that there is no such thing as a free meal in this world. Men always have ulterior motives. Even if they keep you at home, they have a purpose."
These words really made Zhao Yazhi feel a little uncomfortable.
"What do you mean? What other purpose could your man have in keeping you at home?"
"Hey, I'm talking about your business."
"What's wrong with me? You'd better mind your own business."
Zhao Yazhi dropped the broom in her hand and returned to her room from the garden, feeling inexplicably angry. On the one hand, she was definitely thinking about the gossiping sisters, but she also couldn't help but think of Wu Changyun, whom she hadn't contacted for a long time.
"What is this guy doing?"
Zhao Yazhi muttered to herself that the other party seemed to have no desire to come to her at all.
The more Zhao Yazhi thought about it, the more she felt that she should take the initiative to find Wu Changyun. She really didn't want to be like those traditional little girls who sulked on the road and felt more and more aggrieved the more she thought about it. Zhao Yazhi thought that what belonged to her should be taken back.
Wu Changyun is her man, so Zhao Yazhi can also take back Wu Changyun's film career.
On this day, Zhao Yazhi, who had made all the necessary preparations, came to find Wu Changyun, hoping that he could prepare a play for her. Similarly, she would also make a lot of money for Wu Changyun in the new play.
Wu Changyun looked at the confident Zhao Yazhi. Perhaps this is the pride of a genius of his generation?
"You know you can make money before the movie even starts. What if you're a box office poison?"
"Me? Not likely."
Zhao Yazhi said this very seriously.
It's no wonder she dares to be so self-righteous, because compared with the actresses in movies and TV, she is indeed not inferior to anyone, and even surpasses them.
"Don't you think you are wasting resources?" Zhao Yazhi covered her mouth and laughed.
"Well, but I'm preparing a movie now."
Seeing that Wu Changyun was about to refuse, Zhao Yazhi spoke out the lines she had prepared long ago.
"Other directors usually make seven or eight films a year, but you think two is too many. They always release a blockbuster movie right after they recruit new talent, but you sign me and then put me on ice for a year or two, right? You're going too far, Wu Changyun."
The lines Zhao Yazhi prepared were heart-wrenching.
Wu Changyun wanted to refute, but he really had no good reason.
After Zhao Yazhi joined the company, she was not very active at all. This guy was dating her at the time, and for some reason he was so enthusiastic that he wanted to make a movie.
There is a big difference in the way girls and boys think. When Zhao Yazhi first joined the company, she listened to Wu Changyun completely. Later, she lived a good life with her daily salary. This kind of life did not make Zhao Yazhi feel guilty.
"Okay, but given the current situation, I can let you go for a slightly sexier route."
"Ah? Really?"
Zhao Yazhi was afraid that she had heard it wrong, but she didn't expect Wu Changyun to agree so easily.
This was the first time that Wu Changyun went against history and planned to change Zhao Yazhi's style, because we were used to the image of chivalrous women and jade girls in traditional Hong Kong martial arts films, which were actually not very powerful.
When it comes to sexiness, South Korea seems to be very creative.
For the current Hong Kong market, if a movie about a love story between women comes out, it will probably cause a sensation in the entire market at once.
This is also the "Handmaiden" where Wu Changyun had planned to insert Yumi Takigawa, also known as "The Housemaid".
This film is quite amazing, it explores the dark side of sex among the nobility, bringing together a persecuted lady and a maid. The main plot is about the relationship between these two women, from ambiguity to adventure, and finally running to each other.
"The Handmaiden" is not only a romantic ethics film, it also contains suspense and surprising twists and turns, it is also a work that feels quite subversive after watching it.
Wu Changyun took a look at Zhao Yazhi's image. Wu Changyun's original intention was to give Zhao Yazhi the image of the young lady in the original work.
In the original work, the image of the young lady is a product raised by nobles and serving their sexual needs.
There is a classic scene in the original work, in which the young lady's mother is caught by a giant octopus in front of the nobles. Afterwards, the mother commits suicide. The young lady inherits her mother's job and recites pornographic books in front of the nobles.
An innocent noble lady is intertwined with the evil thoughts of middle-aged nobles, just like the decadent life of the rich is eroding young men and women in society.
When it comes to satire, Korean films and TV shows are quite good at it.
Wu Changyun briefly explained the script to Zhao Yazhi. To be honest, the script was quite challenging and involved some scenes that were a bit too explicit. If it were a professional actor, Wu Changyun would not be worried.
"Can you do it?"
"Okay, I want to give it a try." Zhao Yazhi ignored the difficulties in Wu Changyun's mind.
Wu Changyun always feels wrong. Those successful people often see difficulties as simple things. She is indeed a darling of heaven.
On the one hand, Wu Changyun admired Zhao Yazhi's talent and beauty, and said that old age had given this girl a lot.
On the other hand, he thought back to his life before he traveled through time. Was he not working hard enough? Did he have a direction to strive for? Wu Changyun rubbed his brow absentmindedly.
After finishing the conversation with Zhao Yazhi, Wu Changyun found a way to get Takigawa Yumi's contact information and was surprised to find that the other party was preparing for a large-scale concert.
It turns out that after returning to Japan, Yumi Takigawa has been developing well as a singer and is planning to hold a large-scale concert at the end of the year.
Yumi Takigawa was very grateful for Wu Changyun's invitation, but she really didn't have the time.
Wu Changyun was stunned. This was something he had not expected. He had always felt that he owed Takigawa Yumi everything. After all, he had spent a night in the hotel.
"Okay, then I have a new candidate."
When Wu Changyun was conceiving the script, he wanted Brigitte Lin to play the role of the young lady.
In Wu Changyun's mind, Brigitte Lin is ranked higher than Zhao Yazhi, but he is troubled by the fact that both Takigawa Yumi and Zhao Yazhi have some sweet attributes, and neither of them is the best candidate to play the role of a young lady, and both can play the role of a maid.
But Brigitte Lin is different. She is a woman with certain complete attributes.
Men are very aware of their own shortcomings. Every man has an image of a mature and intellectual opposite sex in his mind, a woman who can tolerate him in all aspects. Brigitte Lin possesses this all-round attribute, which makes people feel familiar and unattainable.
