"Have you ever seen Barfly, 'Some people never go crazy. What really horrible lives they live!'"
"You mean you're going crazy? Are you and I going crazy?"
"No, I mean we are going to be crazier tonight, hahaha!"
On the eastern highway of Kauai under the night sky, a black Mercedes-Benz SUV was driving quickly, its headlights illuminating the front. Anastasia in the passenger seat looked at the laughing Ye Wei and asked doubtfully: "What do you mean?"
"Where is the bar near here?" Ye Wei asked, tapping the steering wheel with both hands.
"You want to drink?" Anastasia was slightly surprised. She was 19 years old and he was 18 years old. They were not old enough to buy alcohol. Ye Wei shook his head: "No, I don't worship alcohol, nothing else. I want a remote, dark bar with a lot of rough drunkards."
She wasn't sure. The two of them searched around before arriving at this country bar called "Lazy House" on the southern outskirts of Kapa Town. It was around nine o'clock in the evening. Although there were not many customers in the simple bar, it was very noisy. , the conversation was very exciting.
Five heavy-bodied drunkards were shouting something at the bar. Then a "Hey!" came out. They turned around and immediately stopped talking, staring at the hot young beauty. She Their long legs in white shorts made their eyes look fascinated.
"Look." Ye Wei kissed Anastasia on the lips, walked towards the red-faced drunkards, and said in a mocking tone: "You want to fuck her? Haha, she got blisters from playing with me on the bed, you just have to Have a glass of beer, go home and vent your anger on your mother-in-law, and sleep with your daughter¡¯s beautiful classmates. Seriously, do you have a family, my friends!¡±
Suddenly, a bearded drunkard stood up suddenly and punched him with his fist, "You damn boy!!"
Anastasia screamed in shock, and her heart became tense. Ye Wei avoided it, raised his fist and fought back, and shouted: "Let us fight!!!"
"Hey, hey!" the middle-aged boss behind the bar also exclaimed: "Go out and fight! Go out and fight!"

Did viy make a good movie?
As "Soul Surfer" is approaching completion, the media and public are increasingly having this question, and there are too many gossips.
Bethenny and her family team were also confused. Hofstetter began to regret selling the project rights to Ye Wei, even though he was also a producer. Everyone has worries while looking forward to it. If Ye Wei tried his best and failed to take a good shot, that would be acceptable; if he failed to take a good shot and failed, no one would be disappointed.
This is also a question of the ss crew members. The old guys feel particularly strongly. Maybe they are used to viy before, but now he is always a little careless.
As a producer who has worked with him for the third time, Peter Heller is not sure about Ye Wei's condition. Only the director himself knows whether Ye Wei is good or not, or he himself doesn't know.
Life is personal, and the morale of the crew is still very good, because all aspects of work are going smoothly, it is not a regular work system but not particularly difficult, and there is good food and accommodation, high bonuses, and beautiful scenery in Hawaii, so there are no complaints online or offline.
Ye Wei became a playboy, but for so long, his woman visited the set only once, and Scarlett Johansson left quickly without affecting the work of the crew.
In this regard, Ye Wei¡¯s professionalism is praised by everyone. He does not behave stupidly and treats the set as his back garden. Even Anastasia Ashley has never visited the studio. There are no family members, no women, and no trouble. Viy does this better than most directors.
So Lionsgate couldn¡¯t find any faults. The filming progress was in line with expectations and budget, and there was no need to increase the cycle or funding. Ye Wei didn¡¯t mess this up.
??????????????? But it¡¯s also about getting the job done, and it¡¯s possible to make a good movie or a bad movie, and when is it not?
In Sean Maurer¡¯s view, Ye Wei is really much duller. Whether this is progress or regression, he doesn¡¯t know. To say that the director did not take the film seriously, he disagreed. At least at some moments, viy was still the same viy, even crazier.
This became more common after Gia left the crew.
¡°For example, we were filming a surfing scene that day. Everyone on the speedboat was filming, and Emma Roberts was surfing on the sea.
"Keep shooting!" Ye Wei suddenly shouted, pulled off the diving goggles on his forehead, jumped into the sea, and disappeared into the sea with a pop.
"Oh!?" Maurer and everyone exclaimed. They didn't know what happened to him, but they continued to shoot as he said. When the waves roared past, Emma yelled in panic after finishing the shot: "Wei jumped down. What¡¯s wrong with Wei?¡±
Just when everyone was in shock and doubt, they saw a figure rushing out of the sea in the distance, and the speedboat hurriedlyDriving past, he heard Ye Wei shouting: "God, this perspective is great!"
When viy got on the speedboat, her first words were: "Sean, we need to add more underwater shots."
At that time, at these moments, Maurer always felt inexplicably moved, and he believed that other old friends also felt this way. Such a talented director, such passion, that's why they follow him.
¡¡
"Hahahaha! My friends, go fuck the floor, you almost touch the earth."
On the floor beside the bar in a country bar, three drunkards were lying on their backs moaning in pain. The other two were still sitting at the bar and continued to drink, saying repeatedly with emotion: "You guys are so good!" and "Where did you get the kung fu boy from! ¡±, ¡°It¡¯s crazy!¡±
Anastasia was already stunned, and for some reason, there was a bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, Ye Wei still stood there clapping his hands, and the drunk men who beat him fell to the ground, viy was definitely Have you learned fighting? She went from screaming to cheering now.
"Remember what I said: if you have the heart to fight at any time, then you should have good skills. Why don't you want to learn?"
She walked quickly and couldn't help hugging him. At this moment, she really liked this kind of majesty that only men can have.
"Look at you! You are some kind of sincere people." Ye Wei said as he took out his wallet and took out a few hundred dollar bills and put them on the bar. "I'm going to treat you to this meal. I like you because you are angry. Take action, I dare say many people have never tasted this! Even if you give me the middle finger, many people have never.¡±
He put his arm around Anastasia's shoulders and walked out of the bar. The middle-aged boss said angrily: "Madman, madman, don't come again!"
¡°You¡¯re incredible,¡± Anastasia said in amusement, ¡°But will it make a fuss about the media?¡±
"I don't care, as long as I have no legal responsibility."
"If word gets out, they will definitely say that you don't do the right thing" Anastasia paused. In fact, dating her would already be within the scope of accusation.
Ye Wei laughed, walked towards the off-road vehicle parked on the side of the road, and said to her: "There are two sources of creation, just like light and darkness, two sides of the same coin, whatever."
"The first onehow to put it, when you are in the wonderful innocence, embracing love, kissing nature, the world is so lovely, you will laugh, laugh, and laugh.
Your youth, enthusiasm, passion, life, breathing, everything has meaning, everything is so good. Even if it's just the wind in your face and seeing the trees sprouting buds, oh my God, that's awesome. Inspiration will surge out, and you want to use the most beautiful poems to praise, express, defend, and love. "
The two returned to the off-road vehicle, Ye Wei started the vehicle and headed towards the Lihue Marriott Hotel.
"What about the other one?" Anastasia was a little intoxicated. Although she didn't quite understand what he said, she really admired him more and more.
"Another kind?" Ye Wei looked at the road ahead and said, "You know, Charles Bukowski? A great writer, avant-garde artist, and rebellious old man. In any case, someone asked him, 'What do you think of him? What advice do you have for young writers? 'He said, 'Drink more, smoke more, fuck more women.' And asked him, 'What advice do you have for old writers?' He said, 'If you are still alive, you don't need any advice.'"
Anastasia asked: "So?"
Ye Wei shrugged and said: "He is really a sensible person. I mean, if you are not in the first category and you have a beast in your heart, then you might as well be an unscrupulous bastard, go challenge, go fool around, and burn your Pain, pissing on the ruins of your collapsed world.
I don¡¯t like drinking and smoking, but I like fucking women. Fucking is an interesting thing, especially fucking driven by physical desire. The most obscene but also the most primitive pursuit is to fuck a woman! But you're not a primitive, and after you're done, those longings for light can make you fall into a void, very dark, and you're close.
You are not a poet or an artist, you are just a fly, a bastard!
You have a cold, void, death-like feeling. There is no tomorrow, no hope, and no bondage! That means you've arrived.
"Creation is a fucking bastard. At this time, you will also release yourself. Your nature, subconscious, and inspiration will be likefuck it, fuck it, fuck it!" You can choose to fall into the darkness, or you can strive towards the light, either way will make you explode, the same old story of good and evil. "
"Are youthe second type?" Anastasia asked, suddenly feeling that he was full of things and not just a playboy.
Ye Wei smiled, turned the steering wheel, and said without answering, "I understand now."??Some other creators are crazy, morally corrupt, and insane. Everyone has quirks, to put it mildly, personality, but in order to be normal people and live in the human world, most people restrain these quirks and abandon their talents. If a person wants to release his instincts and show off his quirks, he will become like a bird. "
"Were you the first type before?" She was still asking, very curious: "You were not like this before, and you still made good movies."
"Let's put it this way." Ye Wei pondered for a while, his eyes flashing with something, "The first type is something that can be encountered but not sought, and the second type is something that can be sought. Innocence and beauty are the rarest things in the world, it is impossible Everyone has a share, even children.¡±
He looked at her and asked with a smile: "What do you think is the greatest characteristic of a person?"
"I don't know." Anastasia shook his head.
"People are born lonely. Loneliness is not the greatest trait, but it is definitely one of the greatest traits. But the greatest instinct of human beings is to escape loneliness, find others, cry as soon as they are born, and want to attract other people's attention. We love freedom, but we love lack of freedom even more , the constraints come from your family, love and friendship, because you are no longer alone.
With those, you are no longer just a person who eats and poops, and you are no longer lonely. "
Ye Wei spoke softer and softer, "The first type is not lonely, the second type is lonely; the first type is in the sky, and the second type is on the ground."
"Then which one are you?" Anastasia continued to ask, insisting on finding out.
"Somewhere in between." Ye Wei reached out and grabbed her, "With your company, how can I be lonely?"
"Will it work?" Anastasia is also a fan of viy, "Between the two? Now?"
"Maybe, maybe not. Well, actually, these are all nonsense I'm talking about, just to make myself feel happier while playing, hahaha!"
Ye Wei laughed, stepped on the accelerator, and the off-road vehicle sped off.
¡ù¡ù
"I thought my resignation would arouse his vigilance. I didn't even want him to get better, just to be a little vigilant! But I heard that he is still the same, hanging out every night, not this woman, but that woman. Grandpa, you Can he make a good movie in his current state?"
"When we are young we all have periods when we go crazy. There are also those who have been addicted to women for a lifetime, such as Rose Meyer and Roger Vadim, but what they filmed is"
"I know! Those B-level erotic films about big-breasted women in "The Pussycat Dolls Road Adventure", viy filmed "Soul Surfer"! A sunny and inspiring story. If he films "How I Slept with Five Women", I Be his assistant director, that little bastard"
"I think Wei Ge's problem is not womanizing, he just behaves like that. He is going through changes in his life."
"Can life change like this? It's like an excuse to indulge yourself. He always has his reasons. He also said that he went on a date to create, and he said it all. You didn't see his appearance, which made me wonder. I feel like he is arrogant. If you tell him, he will tell you that he will never change his attitude.¡±
¡°Weige is a genius, but he is too young and still has a long way to go.¡±
"What I'm most afraid of is that he's not confused or has a problem, but that he really thinks he's worked hard and done well, but in fact he hasn't."
"That's also possible. Independent film creation is the director's personal responsibility. If he makes a mistake without realizing it, I've tried it too."
"You tell me a few words about him. He's crazy enough. It's time to go back. Just say, 'Listen to me, I'm the old man who made "Apocalypse Now"!'"
"Gia, no one can tell at this time."
"Alas! Then let him die, and let everyone watch him die."
¡ù¡ù
In the ocean-view deluxe suite of the Lihue Marriott Hotel, the king-size bed was shaking crazily, and the sounds of passion and women's moans and gasps echoed in the night wind.
Anastasia¡¯s tanned skin was covered in a thin layer of sweat. She lay on the bed with her head hanging, her brown hair swaying with the impact
"WaitI got it!"
The power behind him suddenly stopped, and Anastasia suddenly became more confused. He sat up and looked around, and saw Ye Wei excitedly moved to sit by the bed, took a pen and paper from the bedside table, and Write it down.
"Wei." She lay down helplessly, the flush on her face receding. Although this was not the first time, she felt depressed every time, "What are you thinking about again?"
"A little detail." Ye Wei wrote quickly. Anastasia looked at him sideways, caressed his back, and asked angrily: "What were you thinking about when you fucked me?"
¡°My brain is a multi-core CPU, and I think about many things at the same time.Passion, inspiration and orgasm alike, you really don't know when this bastard is going to come. "
"Okay" She couldn't wait any longer and her legs moved involuntarily, "Sometimes, you are so weird."
"Yes, you are the youngest Oscar nominee for Best Director." Ye Wei said and drew some more lens lines before putting the pen and paper back. He lay down on the bed and hugged her, continued to move, and shouted with a smile: "Let's-do-it!"
The sweet voice from before sounded again.
Ye Wei raised the corner of his mouth, Master Gia, I will prove that you are really wrong. I do not take movies seriously.
"Fuck women and create at the same time, this is called artistic life!"
