Wu Changyun sat on the set in a daze. There was no need to look for the location for modern dramas. When Brigitte Lin saw Wu Changyun sitting alone on the steps, she took the initiative to come over and hand him a cup of hot tea.
This was the tea made by the old man in the later stage of the crew. The two of them sat on the cold steps holding the cups.
"To be honest, I didn't think you would agree to this."
The play "The Handmaiden" requires certain sacrifices from the actors, especially the role of the handmaiden.
He appears to be ignorant and lacks common sense of urban life, but he lives in the dark side of aristocratic society and is a very complex character.
"What's wrong? Didn't you promise me a few days ago that this movie would be a hit?" Brigitte Lin said with a smile.
She joined the cast partly because of the script and partly because of Wu Changyun's guarantee.
It would be fine if it were someone else, but Wu Changyun is the box office king.
"Your achievements are there, it's hard for people not to believe it. Okay, let's go." After saying this, Brigitte Lin went to pull Wu Changyun's arm.
During the period of conflict with Lin Han, Brigitte Lin suddenly felt that life was pretty good.
She could live well without Lin Han, and there were many men in the world who were better than him.
The four great talents that were once popular in Hong Kong now seem to have had a very narrow vision.
"Come on, why have I never seen you on TV?" Brigitte Lin was a little surprised. It was very common for celebrities nowadays to accept some interview programs or be special guests.
"Not interested."
Wu Changyun replied calmly.
This surprised Brigitte Lin. How could there be such a person who seemed to not care much about how to manage his or her fame?
"Why? Doesn't the director need to manage his own image?"
"Because some people will believe it." Wu Changyun replied.
He didn't want to dwell on the topic. Those who agreed were quick to understand, and Wu Changyun didn't want to argue with those who disagreed. Television shows don't have authenticity labels; if they did, they'd probably be fake.
Brigitte Lin does appear on TV shows frequently, and the staff behind the scenes have indeed arranged her lines and designed some stories for her.
But in Brigitte Lin's view, these are all necessary, and many times not for her own sake, but because of the atmosphere of the entire program.
"Okay, it's okay now."
Wu Changyun had a ulterior motive behind his words.
Because those who could appear on TV in the 1970s became big names, unlike in the 21st century when he lived, the threshold for appearing on TV is very low.
How can a person who has not yet established fame and status estimate the impact of what he says in front of the audience?
This is also the reason why Wu Changyun never watches variety shows.
I watched an interview with Chen Peisi before, in which Mr. Chen made such comments about similar programs.
"Good, really good. I saw those instructors turning around and acting really well. This is a great way to hone one's acting skills. Most people can't do it."
The script of "The Handmaiden" was adapted into a Chinese drama, so both Brigitte Lin and Zhao Yazhi wore ancient style clothes. I have to say, the picture of these two people dressed up is really beautiful.
Zhao Yazhi, who played the maid, deliberately put on a sweet and lovely face makeup, stayed with the young lady, and helped her comb her hair and dress up.
Wu Changyun was looking at the camera. In the picture, Brigitte Lin's profile was heroic, which was something that a weak girl didn't have. This might be the reason why she was able to play the role of Dongfang Bubai.
If Brigitte Lin had short hair, she would probably be a girl-harvester.
In the next shot, Brigitte Lin is wearing a backless bellyband and kneeling in a place that looks like a classroom.
A book filled with obscene words was opened in front of Brigitte Lin, and she had to retell the story according to the contents of the book. After a long period of practice, she was able to read the original story vividly.
This was arranged by the father of the young lady and is also one of the ways for nobles to communicate with each other.
On the other floor of the room was a stepped auditorium where people were all dressed in suits and enjoying a forbidden moment.
"Ka, very good."
Wu Changyun's camera was set up in the audience seats, and after filming Lin Qingxia's part, she could go aside to rest.
The assistant quickly came over to put clothes on Lin Qingqing. He had to do all the scenes himself and didn't use a body double.
Some of the people in the audience were just extras, so it was a feast for the eyes.
After finishing a day's filming, Wu Changyun came to the Pearl River and met Wang Tianlin.
Wang Tianlin was wearing a woolen coat and a hat that looked very artistic. He acted very familiar with Wu Changyun as soon as he saw him.
"Brother, long time no see, how are you doing recently?"
"It's okay, it's okay."
Speaking of the story of Wu Changyun and Wang Tianlin, it has to be the time when Wu Changyun cooperated with Mo Yuxuan to crack the hotel case. At that time, the witness was actually the victim girl who escaped from Li Yingquan, but with Wu Changyun's encouragement, the girl identified Li Yingquan.
Afterwards, Wang Tianlin became the vice president of the Hong Kong Film Association.
Don't underestimate this title, it does carry considerable power.
The film and television industry is actually very special. It is not like doing business with clear regulatory regulations. In this circle, you can name an actor a price at will, or make a bad movie and sell it to the audience, and you will not be caught for counterfeiting or selling fakes.
Therefore, no matter which region, there will be such an association or organization spontaneously formed by professionals to regulate the industry itself.
Just like Japan has the Film Ethics Committee, Hong Kong also has the Film Association, and the two are interconnected.
At that time, Japan was a major market for Hong Kong films, and Chen Gangsheng's appeal in Japan was extremely crazy.
"I heard you got into trouble recently."
"Me? How could I not know?"
"You kid." Wang Tianlin let out a sigh of disdain.
"My son is planning to become a director soon. He used to be a screenwriter like you. I hope he can have a good opportunity to gain experience."
Wu Changyun nodded, he knew Wang Jing's potential.
"I'm going to let him go to your place."
Wang Tianlin put it very bluntly.
"Don't you want Pearl River Cinema Line? I can help you think of a solution." Wang Tianlin said.
"That won't work."
Wu Changyun refused decisively. Regardless of the relationship between him and Yuan Aiga, he felt somewhat disgusted by the act of using trickery to seize and rob.
"Brother, have you figured it out? Now your creative content is being sold by others, and then they use the money to poach your customers. I know you have a good relationship with that girl from Changcheng, but kindness and righteousness are mutual."
Wang Tianlin said earnestly that young people are always very obsessed with the word "friend".
"I know, if you were to attack Jiahe, I would agree."
"Haha, you're crazy. How can I take action against Golden Harvest? Your annual box office sales are not even half of theirs. What should I do?" Wang Tianlin laughed.
