Li Yi had racked his brains for this not-so-romantic proposal.
However, for Mu Qing, her mood can be seen from the fact that she looks at the ring on her hand and giggles from time to time.
Li Yi finally settled a big matter.
As for the wedding, the two of them actually didn't have too many requirements.
Even at first, Li Yi and Mu Qing thought about traveling and getting married.
But parents on both sides disagree.
Therefore, the two simply ignored it and left it to their parents to discuss.
Not many people know about Li Yi's proposal to Mu Qing, but if they get married, with Li Yi's current popularity and status in the country, it will never be as peaceful as this time.
But these are all things for later. Li Yi is not a star anyway. He and Mu Qing are both directors. No matter how famous they are, they still work behind the scenes.
Fans know their works more than they know them personally.
Afterwards, Li Yi took Mu Qing to Hong Kong Island and took her to visit the place where Li Yi grew up.
Mu Qing also took Li Yi to visit the place where she grew up.
Although they didn't need to travel far, the two still traveled together for more than a month, putting aside all work and enjoying themselves.
"Is the movie you mentioned real? Does that line really exist?" Mu Qing finally couldn't help but ask this question.
"Well, what's wrong?" Li Yi asked doubtfully.
"When do you plan to make the movie?" Mu Qing asked again.
"You really want to see it?" Li Yi couldn't help but smile.
Mu Qing nodded: "I really want to know what kind of story it is. Why don't you tell me first?"
Li Yi told Mu Qing the story of "Journey to the West".
As a result, Mu Qing's eyes couldn't help but turn red as she listened.
"Westward Journey" is another world in Li Yi's memory, and it is definitely a very special movie.
When this movie was released, it was considered a failure and it could only be said that it was born at the wrong time. However, it later became a classic that must be mentioned by the generation born in the 1980s.
Many of the lines in it can indeed be regarded as classics for many people.
"The person I love is a great hero. One day he will come to marry me on the colorful clouds. I only guessed the first part, but I couldn't guess the ending..."
"Whether I understand it or not, I am no longer a god. I only understand one thing. Loving someone is so painful!"
"Since God arranged for him to pull out my purple-green sword, he must be an extraordinary person. There is no mistake! I know that one day he will appear in front of everyone's eyes, wearing golden armor and holy clothes, and stepping on colorful clouds to marry I!"
Wait, wait, it can be said to be the memories of a generation in another world.
Li Yi himself likes this movie very much.
Some people say that "Westward Journey" is actually similar to "The Legend of Wukong".
But in fact, in Li Yi's opinion, "Westward Journey" is actually more pure. What is really attractive about this story is that it is different from "The Legend of Wukong".
Because "Westward Journey" became a classic because of the poignant love story in it.
The beauty of this movie lies in the contradictions and conflicts between its plots. The Supreme Treasure later became Sun Wukong, which actually implies that a boy became an adult and a man. A young man, from ignorance to society and maturity. In the Supreme Treasure inside, he wants to save Zixia, but he must defeat the Bull Demon King. If he wants to defeat the Bull Demon King, he must become Sun Wukong. If he wants to become Sun Wukong, he must let go of Zixia and the seven emotions and six desires. This is The film is conflicting and confusing.
I definitely know how to shoot, and compared to movies like "Changjin Lake", "Westward Journey" is actually much easier to shoot, but Li Yi is a little lazy, mainly because, "Changjin Lake" Movies really cost him too much energy.
"Let's make this movie together, okay? Let's think of it as a wedding gift to ourselves." Mu Qing's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Wedding gift? Uh..." Li Yi didn't know what to say.
The main reason is that "Westward Journey" is really not a comedy, it is a complete tragedy movie. Taking this kind of unlovable movie as a wedding gift, Li Yi feels that he really doesn't understand women.
"Don't you like it?" Mu Qing looked at Li Yi and asked.
"It doesn't matter whether I like it or not, what's important is that you like it!" Li Yi said with a smile.
It is said that "Westward Journey" was originally conceived as a trilogy, but because the first two parts did not achieve the expected results, the last part was naturally aborted.
Later, "The Great Sage", which was said to be the third part of "Westward Journey", was actually another story.
Li Yi also likes "Westward Journey: The Moonlight Box" and "Westward Journey: The Marriage of the Monkey King"!
These two parts are actually the same story.
If we say the most subversive thing about Journey to the West, perhaps it’s the big talk.
Especially the subversion of Tang Seng can be said to be the most thorough.
Unlike "The Return of the Great Sage", which is considered a serious drama, "Westward Journey" is not a serious drama, but a nonsensical comedy.
For a movie like "Westward Journey", casting is the biggest test.
Because the overall style of this movie is nonsensical, naturally, the actors will also have requirements in this regard.
Hong Kong Island once had a style of nonsensical comedy that was popular, but now there are very few people who can truly master the style of nonsensical comedy.
At one time, the nonsensical style could be said to be one of the important labels of Hong Kong films.
Nowadays, if we want to find actors with this kind of style, it is easy to find old actors, but the key lies in young actors.
The male lead is better to say that the style of Zhou Xing who was discovered by Li Yi to star in "The King of Comedy" is more in line with Li Yi's requirements.
It’s easy to talk about other supporting roles, but the key lies in the several female characters.
If Li Yi wants to shoot "Westward Journey", it will definitely be two consecutive filmings. "Moonlight Box" and "The Marriage of the Monkey King" are actually one story when combined.
The heroines in "Westward Journey" are actually very crucial.
Spider Spirit, Bai Jingjing, and Zixia Fairy, these three characters are the biggest problems this movie will face.
Because actors can basically only be selected from mainland actresses, but there are probably not many actresses from the mainland who match the image. But the problem is that many mainland actresses may not be able to handle the nonsensical style. .
After all, nonsensical movies can now be said to have almost disappeared from the film industry.
"An actress with a nonsensical style? Um..."Westward Journey" is a nonsensical comedy?" Mu Qing was a little surprised when she heard what Li Yi said about her nonsensical acting style.
Because according to the story line of "Westward Journey" described by Li Yi, it was obviously a romantic and poignant tragedy. She never expected that Li Yi would actually want to use a nonsensical comedy mode to show it!
"The King of Comedy?" Mu Qing thought about Li Yi's only film with an obvious nonsensical style, and "The King of Comedy" happened to use the same nonsensical style to show a tragic life. drama movie.
PS: It’s the holidays and I’m very busy, so there are only two chapters today.
