The two of them smiled bitterly and gave a thumbs up at the same time. "Awesome!"
However, Zhao Hongxiang still asked, "Director Yu, this monk … this master's final act of taking off his tattered kasaya and revealing his white monk robes was also designed by you? This design is too wonderful, it's really beautiful! At that moment, it was as if I saw Buddha! "
"Yeah, it's so beautiful! But Director Yu, you're stealing the show, "Hu Xiao said.
"This is indeed a bit of a show-stealer. If it were released according to what was filmed, I reckon everyone would only remember the monk and forget about Hua Mulan. But I really can't bear to cut such a good shot. As for the kasaya, I can only say that it was a coincidence, an unexpected gain. "Yu Guanze did not have the habit of flattering himself.
"Director Yu, what do you plan to do?" Hu Xiao asked.
Yu Guanze smiled bitterly and said, "Let me think about it. There are still a few scenes to come. I'll keep it for now … Even if I can't use it, I'll keep it. It's such a classic … "
Hu Xiao and Zhao Hongxiang shamelessly said, "Um, can you give us one as a souvenir?"
Yu Guanze immediately laughed. "Director Hu, Director Zhao, what do you want this for? He's not a veteran actor, nor did he graduate from a famous university. He's still young. As the saying goes, a young man can't be trusted … "
Yu Guanze's old faces immediately turned red, but they still shamelessly asked for it.
Yu Guanze laughed heartily and said, "Alright, don't worry, I will definitely give it to you."
Only then did the two of them laugh. Although it was a little embarrassing, it was still worth it to be able to collect such a classic film.
"Eh? Where's Venerable Fangzheng? Lin Dongshi, where's Venerable Fangzheng? Did you see that? "Yu Guanze jolted to his senses and surveyed his surroundings. When he realized that Fangzheng was gone, he immediately shouted.
Lin Dongshi immediately ran over. "Director, Venerable Fangzheng has returned to One Finger Monastery. The front door is closed. I knocked on the door, but he said he wanted some peace and quiet. Also, he said that he won't be filming the later scenes. "
"What? You're not filming anymore?! "Yu Guanze immediately panicked and shouted," You acted so well, and you're not acting anymore? What's going on? "
Hu Xiao said, "Are you trying to raise the price?"
"Raise my ass. He's just making a guest appearance out of friendship. He doesn't get paid," said Yu Guanze.
"That's it. If you don't pay, I won't act for you," Hu Xiao said.
"I'll go take a look." Yu Guanze could not be bothered to argue with this layman. He shook off the crowd and jogged to the entrance of the temple. As expected, the door was closed.
Yu Guanze knocked on the door and shouted, "Venerable Fangzheng, I'm Yu Guanze, Director Yu. Are you there? Can you hear me? "
"Patron, what's the matter?" The door opened as Fangzheng appeared.
Yu Guanze looked at the sorrowful Fangzheng and was immediately stunned. Following that, he came to a realization. Fangzheng had gotten too into character and was heartbroken! Yu Guanze asked, "Venerable Fangzheng, are you still upset over the plot in the movie?"
Fangzheng sighed. "That's indeed the case. Although it's just a show, there are too many things in it that can't be described with words." There were some emotions he had never experienced before, but he had suddenly experienced them today. It was so deep that he couldn't calm down for a long time.
"Venerable Fangzheng, you are getting into character. And to an actor, getting into character is the most basic skill. If they couldn't do it, it wouldn't be called acting, it would be called posing. But there are too few people who can get into character these days. You are the fastest person to get into character in all my years in the film industry. I just never expected you to get into character so deeply … That was an oversight on my part, "said Yu Guanze.
Fangzheng pressed his palms together and smiled. "Patron, there's no need to blame yourself. It was you who allowed This Penniless Monk to experience a second life. This is indeed a rare opportunity. "
"Venerable Fangzheng, then the rest of the show …" Yu Guanze seemed to see hope. Fangzheng's acting might not be the best, but to be able to get into character meant that he had the best and most natural acting skills! There was nothing better than that. He naturally wished that there would be such a person in his movies.
However Fangzheng shook his head. "Patron, This Penniless Monk's cultivation is lacking. It's not suitable for This Penniless Monk to continue acting. I'm very sorry. "
Fangzheng really did not wish to continue acting. This was because when he adjusted the corpse's clothes, he had not only come into contact with the Northern Wei soldiers, but also the Rouran soldiers. The Northern Wei soldiers were heroes, but what were the Rouran soldiers? Tigers, leopards, jackals, and wolves? Clearly not.
Those who killed were evil. If they did not kill, they would be killed. Then was killing right? Was it a sin to wage war for the prosperity of the country? Was it a sin to kill to protect the safety of the people?
Fangzheng believed that killing evil was not a sin, but certain words in the Buddhist scriptures made him feel conflicted. He was vexed, so how could he be in the mood to continue acting? All he wanted was to clear his head or he would not be able to continue his days. He had had enough of the Zen farming from before.
"Well, Venerable Fangzheng, let me put it this way. You did very well. It was very, very good. If it's possible, I really wish you could continue acting. This is a blockbuster movie. In the future, it will go global. When the time comes, you will promote the Buddhist Dharma. Your name and One Finger Monastery will become famous both overseas and overseas, "persuaded Yu Guanze.
Fangzheng was indeed a little tempted. However, Zen Master One Finger had said, "He indeed yearns for One Finger Monastery to become a top-notch monastery, but to have a huge monastery without the corresponding virtue is not merit but a sin. To build a monastery, one must first cultivate one's character. To cultivate one's character, one must first cultivate one's virtue. "
After his trip to Baiyun Monastery, Fangzheng had already realized that his Buddhist Dharma cultivation was lacking. There were few visitors now, but if there were more visitors in the future, how was he to handle them? It was impossible for the System to give him Lotus Flower Conveyance every day. Therefore, Fangzheng only wished to advance steadily bit by bit. He did not want to make a huge leap and end up falling to his death.
Therefore, Fangzheng said, "Amitabha. Patron, although This Penniless Monk wishes to promote the monastery, This Penniless Monk does not have enough virtue. This Penniless Monk might not be able to bear such a reputation. Patron, thank you for your kind intentions. This Penniless Monk really cannot continue acting. Besides, Patron Lin said that this is just an emergency. This Penniless Monk believes that the remaining matters will be the same without This Penniless Monk. "
Yu Guanze was taken aback when he heard that. He had seen countless monks but this was the first time he had seen such a humble monk. He did not have enough virtue to bear such a reputation? But how many famous people in the world had the virtue to match their status? It was common for people to not have enough virtue to match their status. It was just that people did not talk about it or face it.
Facing the young monk in front of him, Yu Guanze suddenly realized that as a great director, he was dwarfed by him. He was still pursuing fame and fortune, but the monk in front of him had really let go of it. With such a temperament at such a young age, he would definitely become a master in the future if nothing went wrong.
