Chen Kaige has never made a film with such high evaluation and good quality as Farewell My Concubine. What is the reason?

The film Farewell My Concubine was directed by Chen Kaige and written by Reed. And their big brother, Wu.

Film is the art of cooperation, and the cooperation of these people has created the brilliance of China's films. Later, Wu's eldest brother left and the brothers dispersed. When we get together again, the eldest brother despises the younger brother's "blockbuster" and the younger brother no longer listens to him.

The reason why I can't make Farewell My Concubine anymore. For the following reasons.

Chen Kaige was born in an artistic family, and his father was a famous director Chen Huaiai. After graduating from junior high school, Chen Kaige went to Xishuangbanna Agricultural Reclamation Bureau as a worker and cut down trees for several years. Later, he was transferred to the army and worked in Beijing Film Printing Factory.

Chen Kaige's writing is excellent, and his composition is a must. Of course, he applied to the Chinese Department of Peking University. Sitting in the examination room, Chen Kaige was shocked when he saw the examination questions, only to know that writing a composition is not the same as taking an examination of Peking University.

I failed in Peking University, but accidentally entered the editorial department of Nortel. And Zhang Yimou, reed became classmates.

After graduation, Chen Kaige was in Beijing, but unlike Zhang Yimou, his factory in Guangxi was highly valued. There are many seniors in the factory, so it's not Chen Kaige's turn to play. Guangying cherishes talents, and spends four times his salary on seconding Chen Kaige from Beijing.

Wu, who is thirsty for talent, is chasing Guangying and handing over Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige.

For the first time, the forces that changed the film pattern in China gathered in Xiying.

Some people say that the glory of China's films began with 1983. Indeed, this year, Wu, the "godfather of the film", became the director, and Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige got together to shoot Yellow Land, which shocked the world.

Feng Hsu found Chen Kaige with Li Bihua's novel Farewell My Concubine and wanted him to remake it into a movie. Chen Kaige talks to Reid about the script.

The screenwriter and director make sure that the cast has enough budget to choose the best actors. Before the first draft of the script was completed, Chen Kaige and Leslie Cheung met in the coffee shop of Mandarin Hotel and told him the story.

Chen Kaige don't know how much Leslie Cheung can understand, just talking crazily. After that, Leslie Cheung stood up and shook hands with him and said, "Thank you for telling me this story. I am Cheng Dieyi. "

Chen Kaige recalled: "It was a creepy moment. This kind of experience is only this time. "

The film was filmed by Ge You, Gong Li and ZhangFeng yi, and was photographed by Gu Changwei. After filming, Reid came to Zhang Yimou. Zhang Yimou commented that this is the most similar film to Hollywood. At that time, Hollywood was a derogatory term, and Zhang Yimou's words made Reid and Chen Kaige very angry.

From 65438 to 0994, Farewell My Concubine won the Palme d 'Or at Cannes Film Festival.

After Farewell My Concubine, Chen Kaige invited Reed to be the screenwriter of the movie Romantic Moon. Reid checked the information and found that the story only originated from a few words in the workshop and had no real historical support. He said that a story without realism would not be wonderful, but Chen Kaige didn't believe him, and they broke up in discord. From here on, Chen Kaige's hobby stepped into the magical theme.

Besides, the death of "brother" Leslie Cheung is a classic of the past. High-rated film and television works like Farewell My Concubine will never appear again.
