Burnt dry.

He and Chen Kaige are classmates. Chen Kaige calls Lin Chaoyang and his wife "uncle", so what should he do?

Lin Chaoyang noticed Zhang Yimou's dilemma and said with a kind smile: "It's okay, you can discuss it your own way."

Zhang Yimou called "Teacher Chaoyang" obediently, but Chen Kaige's face didn't look good.

What do you mean if I tell you not to? Take advantage of me, right?

"Come, sit down and talk, sit down and talk."

Lin Chaoyang moved several people to the sofa, prepared tea for them, and then sat next to Tao Yushu. "How are the preparations for Kege's movie?" Tao Yushu asked with a gentle smile.

"The script has been revised twice, and the ideas are basically finalized. It will be finalized soon."

Chen Kaige has been preparing for the film "King of Children" for more than two months. Tao Yushu asked some more details about the preparation of the film, and Chen Kaige answered them one by one.

He comes from a film family and studied film. Since graduation, he has experienced several films and his style has become more and more mature.

As long as you can suppress Xin Ma You Rein's performance, your level will still be very high.

Lin Chaoyang specifically reminded Tao Yushu of this issue. After chatting with Chen Kaige for a while, she turned her attention to Zhang Yimou.

Compared with Chen Kaige's natural appearance, he was much more nervous.

There are very few college students graduating these days who are not literary young people, and Zhang Yimou is no exception.

He had read countless works by Lin Chaoyang, and this was the first time he saw the author himself.

Not only that, but what impressed him even more was the adaptation of Lin Chaoyang's works. The script he wrote was better than that written by most professional screenwriters.

"The Truman Show" has just won the Jury Prize, Best Screenplay Award and Best Actor Award at the Cannes Film Festival. For academics like them, this is undoubtedly a coveted award.

Nowadays, the teaching methods of film majors in China are still based on the teaching methods of Europe, especially the Soviet Union, and they are completely dismissive of the Hollywood stuff.

So one can imagine the impact of winning "The Truman Show" on academics like Zhang Yimou and their admiration for Lin Chaoyang himself.

"This is Yimou's first time as a director. Do you have any thoughts?" After chatting for a while, Tao Yushu asked Zhang Yimou.

"I quite like some of Teacher Chaoyang's works." Zhang Yimou replied, observing the expressions of Lin Chaoyang and his wife, and said, "But this is my first time as a director, so I still lack experience."

They had not talked about movies before on the phone, and Tao Yushu understood that Zhang Yimou's words were actually a test.

She smiled and asked: "Which Chaoyang novel do you like?"

Zhang Yimou hesitated and said: "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit and Little Shoes are both very good."

"Hmm!" Tao Yushu pondered, "They are all early works."

Zhang Yimou said: "Teacher Chaoyang's early works were more realistic, so it was relatively difficult to adapt them."

Tao Yushu nodded lightly and said, "Chaoyang and I originally agreed on a novel for you. If you want to change these two novels, it's not impossible."

Zhang Yimou has a high emotional intelligence and knows that this is a polite way of saying it. He is an investor, so he has the final say on what to shoot.

He is a photographer by training, so it is not easy for someone to push him to be a director. He has no qualifications to pick and choose.

"With you two checking it, this novel is definitely suitable for adaptation. Which author is it?"

"Mo Yan, do you know?"

Zhang Yimou's eyes flashed when he heard the name, "The one who wrote "Red Sorghum"."

Tao Yushu's smile became softer when he heard this. He was able to read Mo Yan and "Red Sorghum" at once. It seemed that he must have read the novel.

She said: "Mo Yan's novel has caused quite a stir since it was published this year. The story is also good, and the imagery in it is very well expressed. It should be very interesting if it is put on camera."

"Red Sorghum" was published in "People's Literature" in March this year. It caused considerable repercussions in the domestic literary circle. According to incomplete statistics, nearly 30 reviews have appeared in the four months since the novel was published.

Newspaper.

At this time, Chen Kaige said: "Lin'er used to be the editor of "People's Literature". You were the one who discovered Mo Yan, right?"

The first half of his sentence was addressed to Zhang Yimou, and the second half was addressed to Tao Yushu.

Zhang Yimou's expression was filled with surprise. He didn't expect that Tao Yushu and "Red Sorghum" had such a connection.

Tao Yushu waved his hand modestly, indicating that he didn't need to worry about these details.

Zhang Yimou himself likes the novel "Red Sorghum", and now that the financial backer is so optimistic about it, he is naturally willing to take on this job.
