(Click, reward, recommend, collect!!!!)
After a thrilling and heart-pounding battle, Song Tang hugged Angelina's seductive body, his hands constantly rubbing against her, feeling the warmth of her skin, and his heart couldn't help but swell with pride. This future Hollywood starlet, who had captivated countless men, was now quietly nestled in his arms, mastering the world with a flick of his wrist and sleeping on the knees of a beauty - perhaps this was every man's dream.
Angela, who was still in Song Tang's arms, kept drawing circles on his chest and murmured: "Dear, you're really crazy, I thought I was going to die just now!"
After listening to Angelina's words, Song Tang felt even more proud. Since his rebirth, perhaps due to the reason of his rebirth or perhaps because he often practiced the Huangdi Neijing, in short, Song Tang's skills in this aspect were different from ordinary people. Looking at Angelina's body in his arms, which still had the lingering effects of their recent intimate encounter, made her even more breathtakingly beautiful. If not for considering that Angelina's body couldn't handle it, Song Tang would have definitely done it again. However, he still couldn't resist the temptation and decided to take things slowly.
"Darling Angie, how did you manage to seduce me today?" Song Tang couldn't believe it. Angelina had specially come all the way to Los Angeles just to flirt with him!
"Hmph, what's with the seduction talk, it sounds so bad. I'm here in Los Angeles specifically for auditions." Angelina stopped Song Tang's mischievous hands and frowned as she said this.
"Oh, try the mirror, try what lens?" After hearing Angelina's words, Song Tang was puzzled in his heart. Was Angelina going to act in a movie? Thinking of this, Song Tang looked at Angelina in his arms with doubt.
Angela seemed to sense Song Tang's confusion, so she propped her head up with her arm and stayed in Song Tang's embrace in the most comfortable posture. With a hint of resentment, she said to Song Tang: "Of course, you don't keep your promises either. If I relied on what you say, I wouldn't know when I could enter the entertainment industry!"
"Starving!" Song Tang heard Angelina's words and suddenly smiled awkwardly. It seemed that he had promised to help her write a script, but due to his busy schedule, he had forgotten about it. Now that Angelina mentioned it, Song Tang felt a bit guilty. He thought for a moment and then apologized to Angelina in his arms: "Hehe, dear Angelina, this is indeed my fault. You know how busy I am every day! But don't worry, after I finish this busy period, I'll definitely help you write a script!"
"Never mind, I know too, so it's not that I'm blaming you, just remember and that's fine. I'm still looking forward to working with you, my little man!" Angelina smiled slightly as she listened to Song Tang's apologetic words, after all, she was just complaining a bit.
"Hmm, so that's it, dear. Can you tell me what movie this is?" Song Tang wrapped his arms around Angelina's body, letting her lean against him.
"A small film, e-2, directed by Michael Schroeder, you may not be familiar with it, after all, Michael Schroeder is not a well-known director, and the plot of the movie is not complicated either. It mainly tells the story of an American company that manufactures electronic people in 2074, inventing a group of mechanical humans that are almost indistinguishable from real humans. The female lead, Cash, is a trainer who designs a bomb called Silicon to be planted inside the electronic people. The purpose of the bomb is to use beauty to lure humans and try to infiltrate a Japanese company that produces competing electronic people. However, things take a turn when she falls in love with Colson Ricks, the martial arts instructor at the company, who also likes her. With the help of Mercy, they eventually escape from the company. The company sends out a mechanical tracker named Danny Bench to deal with them, and violent events begin to unfold... In the end, Ricks kills Bench, and with Mercy's help, they finally escape to a place where no one knows them and find happiness. And I play the role of Cash in this movie! Moreover, I have already passed the audition, dear, shouldn't you congratulate me?" Angelina leaned against Song Tang's chest, looking up at him with some pride, after all, this was her first real movie role, and she was even playing a female lead, although it wasn't a well-known film, but at least it was a good start, which made Angelina feel a little excited.
"Congratulations, Angie, but you can't really elope with someone else, or I'll be heartbroken!" Song Tang listened carefully to Angelina's introduction and offered his blessings, but still made a small joke with Angelina.
"Hehe, you're my man, how dare I without your consent? But darling, the way you're jealous is really cute!" Angelina looked at Song Tang's somewhat sour expression and suddenly burst out laughing. Then she held up Song Tang's face with both hands and kissed him once.
"Hmph, I'm just jealous, dear Angie, you should comfort me!" Song Tang's eyes were fixed on Luoluo's stunning figure outside, and he flipped over to press down on her. For a moment, the room was once again filled with the sound of passionate whispers.
The next day, Song Tang took the charming Angelina out of the hotel and first sent her to the filming location of "Electronic Man 2". After a screen test, Angelina also stayed with the crew. For the next period of time, Angelina would be staying in Los Angeles, which was absolutely good news for Song Tang.
With a satisfied smile, Song Tang did not go to the company directly, but drove alone to Los Angeles International Airport. Here, Song Tang will wait for a special person who is about to join Datang, but not as an actor, but as a director.
Wu Yusen, originally from Pingnan, Guangxi, was born on September 22, 1946 in Guangzhou. In 1951, he moved to Hong Kong with his parents. Due to his father's illness and inability to work, his mother shouldered the burden of supporting the family, leading a very frugal life. His father passed away shortly after Wu Yusen graduated from high school, leaving his mother to carry heavy loads on construction sites to support the family. He had to give up his dream of studying architecture or art in Taiwan. At that time, Wu Yusen attended a church school and read extensively on theology, history, philosophy, and art. During his high school years, Wu Yusen often sneaked out of class to watch movies at the cinema. His favorites were Hollywood gangster films, westerns, and musicals from the golden age. These films had one thing in common: dynamic visuals. Wu Yusen's most admired director was French violent film director Pierre Melville, whose works conveyed a strong sense of humanity amidst violence. However, the person who influenced him the most was Sam Peckinpah, who directed "The Wild Bunch". It can be said that Wu Yusen's use of slow-motion shots and his handling of characters fighting to the death in hymns were an extension of Peckinpah's film language.
In 1971, Ng Yu-Sen went to Shaw Brothers to work under Chang Cheh, the most famous action film director at that time. Later he moved to Golden Harvest and worked as a director for over ten years. In 1983, after moving from Golden Harvest to New Art City, his career hit rock bottom and he was sent to Taiwan where he stayed in seclusion for nearly three years. However, it was also during this period that he made many good friends in Taiwan and gained insight into the rich human emotions of the Taiwanese entertainment circle, which differed greatly from Hong Kong's. In 1985, after the box office failure of "The Seventh Curse", he returned to Hong Kong alone and joined Tsui Hark's "Film Workshop".
In 1986, with the help of Tsui Hark, he successfully directed "A Better Tomorrow", which established John Woo's violent aesthetic film style, and later "A Better Tomorrow II" (1987) and "The Killer" (1989) followed this style. "A Better Tomorrow" is not only a turning point in John Woo's life but also a milestone in Hong Kong cinema. When creating this film, John Woo was full of energy and the frustration and revenge that had been accumulating in the film industry for many years were fully revealed in every frame. The fine editing and smooth cutting are still flawless today. This high-quality work shocked all audiences and filmmakers.
This time, Song Tong brought Ng Yu-sen to the United States through Run Run Shaw, making Ng Yu-sen the fifth Chinese filmmaker to enter Hollywood after Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Andy Lau and Song Tong. The reason why Song Tong employed a Chinese director is that with the rapid development of Datang, if he relied solely on himself as a director, he would definitely be overwhelmed. Another reason is that in the future, Song Tong will shoot a large number of films related to Chinese culture and history, so he needs directors who are familiar with Chinese culture! And Ng Yu-sen is undoubtedly one of Song Tong's best choices!
John Woo is often referred to as the "master of violent aesthetics", but in fact, beneath the surface of violence in his films, he focuses on depicting the relationships between characters and the connection between people and their era, a sense of confusion about real society, but ultimately positive. He is skilled at using objects to express emotions, embedding emotions in objects, like the "white dove" and "church" that frequently appear in his films are symbols of goodness. If Song Tong hadn't appeared, John Woo would have been the only Chinese film director to leave his name on Hollywood's Walk of Fame, but now, with Song Tong's arrival, whether John Woo is still the first or only Chinese director to leave his name on Hollywood's Walk of Fame remains unknown!
After Song Tang arrived at the airport, he didn't wait for long before seeing Wu Yusen, dressed in a black suit, walking towards him with a person carrying a large black leather suitcase. Although Los Angeles International Airport often has Chinese people appearing, Song Tang had never seen Wu Yusen in person before, but he still recognized him at a glance.
"Haha, welcome Mr. Wu to the United States!" Song Tang saw Wu Yusen and walked towards him with a smile on his face, then shook hands with Wu Yusen.
Although Ng Yu-sen had not met Song Tang before, he was not unfamiliar with him. The person in front of him had caused a stir in the film industry over the past year, but when Ng Yu-sen saw Song Tang, he was still surprised by his youth.
"Haha, I really didn't expect it, Mr. Song, you came to pick me up yourself! How can this be good enough?" Wu Yusen was surprised but still very happy to shake hands with Song, then pointed to someone beside him and said: "This is my assistant, Li Qiang!"
