This director is very reliable

Chapter 36 The movie itself is about compromise

"Big Man" is just a gangster action movie...

Not so much deep meaning.

Shen Changlin chose this project, first because it is simple and easy to shoot, and second because he wants to make a good work...

If he completely followed his script, the box office would not be less than [-] million, and the word of mouth would not be bad!

The issue is…

Can not be done!
Guo Songjiang suggested: "Either, you add a line, add an anti-corruption line, any time you film anti-corruption, you are walking on the main road!"

By the way, for example: "The initial setting of "Eavesdropping" was a story about a few policemen who eavesdropped on financial intelligence and tainted the police, but none of the mainland investors dared to vote. Later, the ICAC line was added to the script. , and successfully changed the main theme to anti-T corruption, and then was able to successfully get investment and finally released!"

"Come on, I'm the police to catch bad guys, what's the point of adding a line? And if I add a line, do I have to go deeper? Once I go deeper, I still can't shoot!"

Put on the coat: "Let's go, let's go to Golden Shield Film and Television to try our luck!"

Just after getting in the car, Han Sanping's phone call came, so he changed direction and went to China Film Group.

……

Han Dong knew about the "Big Shot" being stuck in the first place.

Who is Shen Changlin?
He is definitely a leader among the young directors, and he is very likely to become a leading figure!

Can't let him lose confidence in the environment of domestic films.

Director Han personally read the script of "Big Man". The script is well written, but the scale is indeed a bit big!

Shen Changlin dared to write, but it was not just a simple confrontation between good and evil, it involved the transaction of power and money...

The big man is so powerful that he can see through every hole!

It feels like the whole Binhai is covered by the Zhao Group!
Here comes the problem, such a huge force, just because of the sentence, "What are you afraid of, there are people behind them, and there is a country behind us, check it out!" '

Just a turning point?

No, the script was explained later, and he was brought to justice...

In other words, the Zhao family has been noticed by anti-T and economic investigation operations...

Let's put it this way, the whole story seems to be due to Sun Dasheng, but it is not. The root cause is that the Zhao Group has accumulated too many evils, and it is time to be exiled!

That being the case, you don't want to directly shoot behind-the-scenes details.

Shen Changlin arrived at Director Han's office, and Director Han went straight to the point: "Your script can be completely changed. Look, the Zhao family here is obviously being targeted by the higher-ups. If you add an ending, the deputy mayor was also arrested in the end... Everyone is happy Well!"

"The high-level inaction has been changed to the fact that the top is to put a long line to catch big fish, so as not to let the male lead act rashly... so as not to startle the snake?"

Han Shanping called the secretary to serve two cups of tea, and asked, "...Have you thought about handling it this way?"

Shen Changlin took the tea, took a sip and said, "I wrote two editions!"

"...It seems that you have already considered the situation of not being able to go to trial!"

"But written in this way, the whole story is very flat... It can't highlight the strength of the villain!"

Han Shanping smiled and asked, "So, you submitted the first version confidently?"

"Well, I think it's more realistic and easier to be accepted by the audience..."

Director Han interrupted him: "Young man, let me tell you, film is a process of constant compromise, market, capital, technology, time, big-name actors and censors, no one can do whatever they want!"

Shen Changlin froze for a moment...

Suddenly thought of the movie that Han Sanping has always wanted to make, but has not been able to approve the project...

Even Han Shanping wanted to make a movie, but he couldn't figure it out. What are you, Shen Changlin?
"You can add a line and briefly introduce Zhao Tai's father. For example, he once rescued a bankrupt state-owned enterprise, and then made it big all the way. He successfully obtained the identity of a representative. As a representative, he exerted pressure and the high-level police officers ostensibly compromised. It’s actually a long line to catch big fish…”

……

Coming out of Zhongying, Shen Changlin didn't speak all the way.

I don't have the mind to go to Golden Shield Film and Television to hug my thigh...

The phrase 'Young man, I tell you, film is a process of constant compromise...'

It makes sense, even Ah Mou's "One Second" almost didn't pass the trial, even if it passed, it was changed beyond recognition...

I suddenly feel so bored...

Obviously can show better...

Seeing Shen Changlin's calm face, Guo Songjiang said cautiously: "Boss, I think we should just listen to Director Han..."

Shen Changlin ignored him...

Guo Songjiang continued: "Although there are some modifications and the scale has been reduced, the overall framework remains unchanged..."

"Wait a minute!" Shen Changlin said: "...I suddenly don't want to shoot "Big Shot"!"

"why?"

"Since this movie can't be done according to my intention, let's change the subject matter!"

"…you can not do that!"

Guo Songjiang was stunned for a moment: "Do you know that we have completed the preliminary research of this project? The preliminary preparation work is also in progress, and more than half of the preparation work has been done. Now you say that you want to terminate it? What about the light? What about China Film? What about the brand placement that has already been negotiated?"

"...No, I haven't even passed the trial. When did the preliminary preparations start?"

"Your movie is now a favorite, and this time it's a modern action movie. A couple of brands came to ask for cooperation..."

Guo Songjiang explained that it has probably been negotiated with more than a dozen brands, and there will be implantation, including sponsorship during later promotion...

"Ah, who told you to contact the brand?"

"You... didn't you say that the project can start at any time, start at any time, of course I have to prepare funds!"

"…how much is it?"

Guo Songjiang took out his mobile phone, looked at the list, and replied: "About 20 million!"

Shen Changlin took the mobile phone, turned to the page, and looked at it. Sure enough, there were drinks, mobile phones, TVs, snacks, portal websites and even toy brands...

"That is to say, I can't do it if I don't shoot now?"

Guo Songjiang sighed: "...boss, I know you are in a bad mood, but the rules are the rules, you can't give up just because of this, right? Don't you think it's smooth sailing when you're shooting? When something happens, don't you want to Disband the crew?"

"...I spoke in anger,"

Shen Changlin returned the phone to Guo Songjiang: "Well, you will send the script to Sun Honglei tomorrow..."

"Sun Honglei seems to be filming a TV series."

"...What about Mr. Hu?"

"Hu Jun also accepted a TV series..."

"Damn, according to what you mean, I still have to audition for the male lead?"

Guo Songjiang shook his head: "You tell me the exact start time, and I'll contact Sun Honglei!"

"Didn't you say he was filming a TV series?"

"...It's okay, I promise he will make time!"

Speaking of this, Guo Songjiang then asked: "Where are the other actors?"

"Anti-number one, I'm going to hire a newcomer, let's go to China Opera and Nortel to see if there are any good seedlings!"

Guo Songjiang laughed: "Hello newcomer, we will sign the newcomer directly..."
