This director is very reliable

Chapter 359 Cooperation (14)

The city of Wuhan has hosted many firsts for Chinese films:
In 1905, BJ Fengtai Photo Studio shot China's first film "Dingjun Mountain". The first film actor in the history of Chinese film - Tan Xinpei, a famous Peking Opera veteran, was from Wuhan;

"Wuhan War", which was filmed in Wuhan in 1911 and reflected the Revolution of [-], was China's first news documentary;

Of course, for Shen Changlin, he is quite familiar with Wuhan, because of the movie road show, Wuhan is an inevitable battle!
Without him, one of the eight major ticket warehouses.

At this time, the National Day file is over, "The Year in a Hurry" won the National Day box office champion with a score of 3.8 million, and "Dragon King of the God Capital" ranked second with 2.2 million...

If the results before the National Day are included, "The Year in a Hurry" is 5.8 million, and "The Dragon King of God" is 3.06 million...

When Shen Changlin arrived in Wuhan, he was interviewed by the local media. The first thing he asked was "how do you think about the high box office phenomenon of "The Year in a Hurry". '

"I think it's quite normal. Now is the era of youth films, and our market lacks this type of film... The most important element of youth films is of course feelings and campus love that ends without a problem. Most of our audiences have experienced this kind of experience, so , everyone is willing to pay the bill!"

"However, Mr. Huang of Huayi said that 'a film market without the support of industrial production is absolutely impossible', do you think he is right?"

"That's right...the Chinese market is huge enough to accommodate the development of all types of films, so industrial production should also become the mainstream!"

"But now "Dragon King of God" has lost to "The Year in a Hurry" at the box office, how do you explain it?"

"The audience doesn't like it, how else can I explain it?"

"Many people say it's because of the audience's aesthetics, what do you think?"

"According to you, "The Fault in Our Stars" was a small production of 1800 million US dollars, sold 1.3 million in North America, and the global box office broke 3 million US dollars. The cost of "The Lone Ranger" was 1.5 million US dollars, and "Return to Earth" was [-] million US dollars. Cost, the box office failure of these two big industrial production movies, does it mean that audiences all over the world have problems? Special effects and industrial production are of course important, but the foundation of a movie is the story! This is the same as building a house without a foundation. Well done, what's the use of just thinking about the floor?"

"thanks…"

……

After accepting the interview, Shen Changlin immediately went back to the hotel, changed his clothes, and then attended the reception.

entertainment!

In fact, this year's Wuhan Golden Rooster Award is quite embarrassing, because on August 8, a notice was issued, asking to stop extravagant extravagance and promote thrift to hold evening parties...

Resolutely put an end to the unhealthy trend of indiscriminately hosting festival performances and indiscriminately hiring high-priced stars and big names.

What is required above must be followed.

Therefore, this year's Golden Rooster Awards will not invite big names to support the show, and will no longer give gifts. The budget for the opening ceremony alone has been reduced by 20 times, from the original 900 million to 30...

Of course, that doesn't mean the media won't come!

Because Shen Changlin and Ah Mou came.

At the reception, Shen Changlin followed Ah Mou to recognize his face...

To be honest, he didn't know any of the judges except Xi Meijuan, but they all had jobs...

But for Shen Changlin, seeing Xi Meijuan is enough!

He has several works that he wants to cooperate with Mr. Xi.

Because Teacher Xi Meijuan's appearance is not easy to provoke - well, it means very mean!
But if you let her play a person with a story, it will be very dramatic.

For example, comfort women.

Of course, Nanny Rong can also act, but she is not in good health, so it is better not to torment her.

After finally being free, Shen Changlin approached Xi Meijuan and proposed the idea of ​​finding her to star in a movie...

Oh, Xi Meijuan is the chairman of the jury for the Golden Rooster Awards, and a bunch of people are joining in the fun.

"Comfort women?"

"Yes...I want to make a movie about comfort women, not a purely original one..."

Shen Changlin roughly talked about the story of "I Can Tell", but the ending was changed to take off his clothes in front of the media at Shanghai Normal University-there is the only "comfort women" history museum in China!

Moreover, Professor Su Zhiliang of Shanghai Normal University has been engaged in research on the issue of comfort women for more than [-] years, and it is also through his efforts that this museum was built...

"This story is based on Ms. Luo Yufen from South Korea. She studied English hard in order to make her sufferings public and demand an apology from the Japanese government."

"...Okay, I agree to act!"

Shen Changlin hurriedly said: "Okay, then I will help you choose a director...The script will be sent to you next month!"

"...how did you come up with the idea to make such a movie?"

"Watching the news some time ago, it seems that the professor over there said, '99% of the comfort women in Japan are Japanese, what's the point of being so old and hypocritical in China and South Korea...' What I thought was, not even one of them would work! An apology must be made!"

"How did the professor over there say such a thing?"

"...Who knows...the minister over there even said, 'there are so many comfort women, they can be voluntary or forced'"

Xi Meijuan was speechless, and was about to say something when Master Huang walked over...

……

Speaking of Huang Jiaozhu, you really can't hack his behavior!

Let's put it this way, as long as he is nominated for domestic film festivals, no, even if it's just an award presenter, he will be there.

This kind of respect for the organizer is really admirable.

Many domestic award ceremonies are so overwhelmed that they can't even make headlines. When the leader Huang went, fans who follow him will also pay attention to this award.

Look at Zhang Ziyi, Fan Xiaopang, and even Deng Chao, they won’t come without nominations!

Zhang Ziyi was nominated this year, but she didn't come - she knew she couldn't win the award.

Gong Er of "The Great Master" lost to Song Jia's "Xiao Hong". By the way, Yan Bingyan's "Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart" also lost to "Xiao Hong"...

In Yuanshikong, Song Jia probably also felt embarrassed. In his acceptance speech, he said, "How could such a big pie fall on my head."I still think it was a mistake to throw this pie here, but since I threw it, I'm not polite! '

Speaking of which, it's not surprising that the leader appeared at this year's Golden Rooster Awards Cocktail Party...

"Chinese Partner" has been nominated for Best Actor, and he will definitely come over.

"Director Shen, Teacher Xi, what are you talking about?"

Shen Changlin didn't mean to hide it either: "...I'm going to ask Mr. Xi to make a movie."

Huang Jiaozhu's eyes lit up, and he answered immediately: "What movie? Can I act in it?"

Shen Changlin looked at him, and then said: "There is a role that is really suitable for you... But there is a lot of oral English training, can you accept it?"

"Of course, Cheng Dongqing from "Chinese Partner" gave a speech in English."

Shen Changlin looked at him, then at Xi Meijuan: "...Mr. Xi, what do you think?"

"I have no objection... You are the director, you have the final say!"

Shen Changlin quickly shook his head: "...I'm not a director, I'm just a producer. I've never made this type of film, and I can't guarantee what I'll make. I'm afraid I'll screw it up!"

When the leader heard it, he became more interested: "What type?"

"It's... a drama, your role is..."

Shen Changlin recounted the plot outline of "I Can Talk", and the leader Huang burst into tears: "I must play this role..."

"I believe you!"

Master Huang, it is generally accepted that the upper limit is high, but the lower limit is low enough for an actor...

People gave nicknames: Huang Wuwu Kai Xiaoming, if the actor in the play performed well, he can give a similar response. If the actor in the play pulls his hips, he will stretch his hips more than the other actor.

Having just said this, Zhao Bafei walked over with a wine glass.
