Chapter 83 Internal Screening (3/3)
"Country Teacher" is really not suitable for being made into a movie...
It's too simple. The highly civilized aliens originally planned to destroy the earth's civilization. After examining several samples, they decided to give up because one of the children they sampled was a student of a rural teacher and happened to know Newton's three laws!
According to interstellar law, a civilization that understands Newton's three laws is called an intelligent civilization and must not be destroyed at will...
This story is also called Newton Saves the Earth!
Okay, let's turn it into a movie.
How to change it?
Shen Changlin thought for a while and said: "Either you make it a black humor story about aliens who want to establish diplomatic relations with the earth... Because he accidentally landed in China, he met a monkey charmer, and a series of stories happened, and in the end he was beaten by the protagonist. Liquor settled the matter of establishing diplomatic relations..."
"Aliens, monkey tricks?"
Shen Changlin rolled his eyes: "I would like to suggest that you go in the direction of "ET"...can you film it?"
"ET" is so cute and full of imagination...
"Crazy Alien" is full of confrontation!
Although Ning Hao's version of "Crazy Alien" is a comedy, it is a bit cruel at its core. Chi Guoguo reveals the almost cruel laws of nature - whoever has the upper hand in "violence" can not treat others as human beings .
Each character is selfish and tries to control those who are "lower" than him, but suffers the most when he meets someone who is "higher" than him.
It satirizes the bloody confrontation between different civilizations, an eternal topic of mankind.
There's nothing wrong with the core, but "Crazy Alien" is too sloppy - the core of the story lacks emotional resonance, and you can't see what the theme is, and all the exquisite designs just become clever.
Maybe it was for the Spring Festival release, so I made such an immature work.
"How to go in the direction of "ET"?"
"It's very simple. Aliens learn the earth's culture and gradually understand that human beings not only have bad qualities, but also have a great side..."
Hearing what Shen Changlin said, Ning Hao quickly waved his hand: "Forget it, I'm not interested! I still think the monkey trick setting is more interesting."
"Well, then just go in this direction. If the script is released, show it to me first!"
"good!"
…
Shen Changlin has entered the development stage of a new project, and the outside world is still discussing "Eight Hundred"...
There is no way, the domestic film protection month is also called the concentration camp of bad films. In the entire July and August of 2016, except for "The Gift of Room No. 7", no well-received works were released at all...
As of today, August 15, "The Eight Hundred" has been in theaters for 17 days, with a cumulative box office of 2.36 billion, surpassing "Monster Hunt" and temporarily ranking third in the history of domestic films.
At this point, the domestic film box office ranks among the top three, with Shen Changlin occupying two seats.
"The Eight Hundred" also broke the box office ceiling for domestic military war films...
By the way, the ticket price of "The Gift of Room 7" is 1.72 billion - I got the extension key, but the total box office is estimated to have only increased by about 10 million - the film schedule has been cut to less than 1%...
The audience is probably bored and has realized that the best way to deal with a bad movie is to turn a blind eye...
Yes, "To Youth 2", "Legend of the Gods", "Tomb Raiders Notes", "Xia You Qiao"...
Everyone is bad in their own way, and even if you want to complain, it’s hard to find new words!
Why not take a moment to praise "Eight Hundred"...
Therefore, opponents are really important.
Otherwise, how could a work like "Eight Hundred" with heavy themes take the market by storm?
On August 18, "White Snake Origin" will be released...
…
Amou came to the company and invited Shen Changlin to watch "Burning"...
Internal screening.
"Burning" is an award-winning drama starring Peng Yuchang and Zhang Xincheng.
The heroine is a newcomer named Huang Yao...
Shen Changlin wanted to object at first, but Ah Mou chose her.
Forget it, it’s better than Liu Haocun!
By the way, Huang Yao is the heroine of the original version of "Spring".
Ah Mou complained about how difficult it is to find young actors who can act: "If it hadn't been recommended by the company, I would have given up!"
"I think this is the case. Even for China's professional actors, their cultural education is very lacking. They started studying professional acting at the age of 18 or 20. At this age, they are basically not deeply involved in the world. They have not had much contact with the society. They are not familiar with other industries. If you don’t understand people of other identities, it will be difficult to get into the role, unless you are extremely talented!”
"right!"
"But fans and the praise from the industry can easily make them unable to recognize themselves! They feel that they are really awesome..."
After a pause, Shen Changlin asked Ah Mou: "How are they doing?"
"They're all good...where did you find them?"
"Zhao Shan found her. She has very strict criteria for selecting artists. Not only must they have good acting skills, but their character must also be acceptable. At least they must not be potential jail-related people..."
While walking and chatting, when we arrived at the company's screening room, a group of people were there, including Ning Hao, Yang Qing, Xue Xiaolu, Wen Muye...
Amou is a giant Buddha in the company!
"Burning" continues the lineup of screenwriter Shen Changlin and director A Mou. This time it also adds the gimmick of an adaptation of Haruki Murakami's original work. Of course everyone wants to watch the movie for the first time and learn...
After a brief greeting, a group of people watched the movie in silence...
The lens processing of "Burning" is clean and neat, whether it is the long follow-up shot at the beginning or the subsequent composition and space processing, it can be called a textbook level!
As for the story, how could the script written by Shen Changlin be bad?
Shen Changlin focused his attention on Huang Yao. This girl is very natural, without much trace of deliberate performance. She has the ability to lift her weight as lightly as thunder in a silent place. At the same time, she can be full of emotions when explosive power is needed. , what a good actor.
No wonder I can be noticed in the future with tons of traffic and idols.
He also has a good eye for selecting films, including "Spring", "The Silent Truth", "Mountains and Seas", including "The Rival"...
Of course, this is also related to her agency - Weilan Culture, which has four artists: Zhang Jiayi, Yan Ni, Huang Xuan and then Huang Yao!
However, in this time and space, she should sign to Amou Studio, but Amou Studio is not good at bringing artists, so she probably has to transfer it to Zhao Shan...
Gee, the competition is fierce now.
Rouba, Nazha, Chen Yao, Huang Yao, four actresses born in the 90s.
There are only so many good resources…
Forget it, let’s leave this thing to Zhao Shan’s headache.
Just as he was thinking about this, Lao Guo suddenly opened the door and kept his voice as low as possible, for fear of disturbing the moviegoers, and then quietly approached Shen Changlin: "Boss..."
"Shh!" Shen Changlin turned his head in displeasure: "We're watching a movie!"
"...Okay, then I'll let him wait!"
"…Um…"
Shen Changlin doesn't care who is waiting...
Love so and so.
Don’t wait until Ma Yun comes!
Guo Songjiang looked around the screening room, and then... he simply didn't go out. Of course, he wanted to preview Ah Mou's new work.
Chapter completed!
