Chapter 931 Two new works (13)

Contemporary Chinese cultural circles are very eager to be recognized by foreigners!

In fact, Lao Jia is not even one of the outstanding performers...

Those writers, good guys, really worked hard to become famous!

They are not as good at boxing!

It's just that other people's Seven Injury Fists are meant to hit others. She hit her own head directly with her opener, making her bloody and bloody for everyone to see and win applause.

If you observe life carefully, you will know one thing. There are two different groups of people: those who take action and those who use loudspeakers to publicize suffering.

Those so-called literati show the suffering of the people at the bottom, not to consider how to solve the suffering, but to earn profits and guide public opinion in line with their own interests through a kind of "ugliness".

It is this group of people who are the staunchest opponents when others really try to solve the root causes of suffering!

Why object?

If you've destroyed all the footage, how can I shoot it?

The key is, sometimes, they pretend to sympathize with the suffering and even move themselves!

This is just like how many film experts like to represent the audience!

In fact, they rarely have contact with the real audience, but they always refer to the audience when writing film reviews and creating works. In the end, the audience of their articles or works does not buy it, and they are still confused and cannot figure out the reason for this result.

The reason is really simple, that is, they are indeed not the public, and they cannot represent the audience at all. They are very enthusiastic in the small circle, but in fact they cannot affect the choices of the audience in reality at all.

Fumino was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Whatever genre the mainstream audience likes, which genre should we shoot?"

"...No, we have to make what we are interested in like mainstream audiences..."

Shen Changlin continued: "This is a matter of tandem. We will shoot whatever the audience likes. Then what do the audiences like? This is too difficult to guess!"

“…”

"I met a director at the Shanghai Film Festival a few years ago, Christian Mongiu."

"The director of "April, Three Weeks and Two Days"?"

"Yes!" Shen Changlin nodded. Then he said: "He said a lot of things to me. The first sentence was, 'I didn't expect that we have so many directors and theaters in China.' The second sentence was, 'Romania is much worse than your China.

, 90% are Hollywood.' And the third sentence is, 'How much money do art films need to make? Why do you Chinese regard art films as a social phenomenon? It still costs over 100 million. It's terrible.'"

…

Ning Hao...actually introduced two newcomers to Shen Changlin.

His Seventy-Two Changes of Bad Monkey project was launched, and he first found two new directors: Olympic bidder and Xu Lei...

Directed "The Beneficiary" and "Sherlock on the Plain" respectively...

Shen Changlin met him during his Olympic bid.

A very famous advertising director…

This person is a thief. When he was in his junior year when he was applying for the Olympics, he was trying to win sponsorship from the Youth Film Studio to shoot his graduation film. At that time, movies were generally shot on film, and the equipment was relatively expensive.

There were 19 students in that class, and there were only 4 spots. With the money, you could make a decent short film, which would serve as a stepping stone to becoming a director in the future, and it would be even better if you could win an award at a film festival.

Why do you call him a thief?

Because of the subject matter, the candidate for the Olympic Games said frankly: "I listed an option at the time and consciously combined Cui Jian's songs with elements that foreigners might be interested in - class, ethnicity, church, and wrote about a Korean man and two BJ youths.

story…”

Shen is of Korean ethnicity, and the filming location was in his hometown village of Yanbian.

This method allowed him to obtain sponsorship and gain recognition from film festivals.

By the way, this short film is "Helongchuangang"...it won the second prize in the student short film section of the St. Bastian Film Festival.

Wen Mino interjected: "That's amazing too!"

"I won the second prize. The first prize was a Brazilian movie about raising chickens. I didn't understand it..."

After a pause, the Olympic bid continued: "I really don't like film festivals. Even if all the exchanges seem to be enjoyable, do you understand me? Do you know what those delicate lines I wrote are saying?"

"So, I have to make commercial films!"

The script of "The Beneficiary" is based on a real case: a case of killing a wife and cheating on insurance occurred in Changzhou in 2013. To put it simply, two men killed a woman, one man was responsible for getting married and buying insurance for the woman, and the other man seduced her. The woman asked the woman out, but they fell into the river together. The woman couldn't swim and drowned, but the man could swim and survived. The security deposit was divided between the two men.

"How's the script?"

"It's okay, pretty smooth..."

Shen Changlin took the script from Ning Hao and looked through it...

Before the three minutes were up, he raised his head and said, "The hero should go find Bao Qiang!"

"Baoqiang?"

"What? You think he can't do it?"

Hesitating about the Olympic bid: "...Brother Baoqiang is of course fine, but will it be too expensive?"

Shen Changlin was speechless: "What does it have to do with you as a director whether it's expensive or not? This is the job of an investment company..."

Ning Hao interjected: "Just listen to Director Shen. When it comes to casting, no one knows better than him!"

The Olympic bid was a bit meaty: "Well...Director Shen, the heroine has also been solved by the way, right?"

Shen Changlin thought about it for a while, and then said: "Liu Yan...except for her, I can't think of anyone else who has climbed up from the bottom in the industry!"

"Well, it's really not easy for Liu Yan..."

A few people decide the hero and heroine of a play in a few words...

Not even an alternative...

Think about it, with Shen Changlin producing and Ning Hao supervising, who would refuse such resources?

…

"This is a script I made based on my father's personal experience..."

"Sherlock on the Plains"…

Shen Changlin knows this movie, Rural Detective Guide!

Chaoying, an old farmer in Hebei Plain, wanted to renovate his family's house, so he asked his good brothers Zhanyi and Shuhe to help. Shuhe went out shopping and was hit by a car, and the driver who caused the accident disappeared.

Shuhe was lying in the hospital and needed money.

While Chaoying was trying to find a way to raise money for Shuhe, he and Zhanyi started looking for the driver responsible for the accident.

The so-called "Sherlock" refers to the two "cool detectives" Chaoying and Zhanyi...

Shen Changlin simply read it and nodded immediately: "Only we Chinese can understand this script and are the most familiar with it!"

"...Xiao Xu wants to use their amateur actors..."

"Of course it's good to use amateur actors..."

Shen Changlin first affirmed, then shook his head: "But the market return may not be high..."

"Sherlock on the Plains" is not a literary film, it is a very traditional suspenseful black comedy with great dramatic effect...

From beginning to end, there is a human touch with Chinese characteristics - the two detectives look for the driver who caused the accident, all relying on connections...

Xu Lei hesitated for a moment, then expressed his concerns: "But I can't think of a suitable actor..."

Shen Changlin shook his head: "How could you not think of it? Ge You, Fan Wei, whoever you want, I can find it for you!"

"...Ge...Uncle Ge?"

"Isn't it appropriate?"

"Of course it's suitable...just...can he like this script?"

Shen Changlin smiled: "Then I'll ask him to come over for a meal and take a look at your script..."
Chapter completed!
