This director is very reliable

Chapter 746 The Second Weekend (34)

Shen Changlin actually doesn't need a character.

But... who wouldn't want a better reputation?

Of course, don't overdo it - after all, Ya is a director!

It is mentioned that what he thinks of must be works, not famous quotes...

Like trousers, he is obviously a director. When mentioning him, the first thing to say is 'I'm so lonely and seek defeat' or 'I don't make movies, what do Chinese people watch? '

There is a limit here!

Shen Changlin's method is to reduce the sense of presence as much as possible. Except for the publicity period, he rarely expresses his opinions. Even if he posts a small composition on Weibo, it is aimed at the movie itself.

Never participate in the affairs of the industry.

Unless it involves him...

After returning the call, with Shen Changlin's slightly threatening words, the other end of the phone was obviously a little flustered, and then a man's voice came: "Director Shen, I'm Wang Han...We are recording "Mars Intelligence Agency"!"

"Brother Han...recording the show, right? I said how could Li Chun say such things, she is honest and honest in the crew, not such a brave person!"

"Does Director Shen know about the Mars Intelligence Agency?"

"Of course, Brother Li's show..."

The producer of "Mars Intelligence Agency" is Li Wei, the former deputy director of the office of Mango TV, and Wang Han is a colleague. This is why "Mars Intelligence Agency" continues to use the team of "Everyday Upward"...

"Director, what kind of person is Li Chun in your eyes?"

"A good actor can endure loneliness, and doesn't follow the crowd to gain so-called network resources. I like actors like this very much..."

"Will you cooperate in the future?"

"...should be," Shen Changlin smiled, and said: "The young actors nowadays either have no acting skills, no professional ethics, and more cases, neither of them. Young actors like Li Chun who are professional and hard-working There are fewer and fewer actresses, hold on, my little fellow!"

"Hometown?"

"She is like me, we are all AH people!"

After chatting for a few words, I hung up the phone - I didn't take the opportunity to invite him to record an issue of "Mars Intelligence Agency"...

Wang Han also knew that Shen Changlin seldom appeared in variety shows. Even if he was invited, Shen Changlin would definitely not come. If so, why ask for trouble?

However, he immediately asked Li Chun: "I heard that in the film industry, directors and actresses often fall in love with each other because of the drama, does Director Shen?"

Li Chun laughed: "I don't think it's possible. "Eight Hundred" is a war film, not to mention whether there are female characters in the film. Just thinking about the shooting every day almost exhausted his energy...During the filming, he only slept every day. Three to five hours, full of shooting, I don't think he has time to think about it!"

"And Director Shen usually chooses men's dramas..."

"In fact, the power of directors is not as great as everyone thinks. The media likes to find out actors and directors. In fact, many times, actors are selected by producers or sponsors. Poor acting skills can't be moved..."

"Is Director Shen the same?"

"He's an exception!" Li Chun interjected, "He never attends receptions, and he doesn't deal with those people in private. When casting, he can use whoever he wants, and don't worry about other people's opinions!"

……

Shen Changlin's casting is really not about using whoever he wants, nor is he choosing actors based on the role...

At least not early on.

In the past, he had to consider the actor's popularity when choosing a role.

Why is "Embroidered Spring Knife" Deng Chao?

Why is "Big Shot" Wu Jing?

"The Treasure Alliance", "The Thieves", "The Wrongdoer"...

It wasn't until "Eight Hundred" that I gradually only considered the suitability of the role!
By the way, consider the character of the actor or something.

All of this has to be added with a premise: it is one of our own.

He still has a respectful mentality for movies. Although he regards it as a career, he uses methods acceptable to the public...

He is the creator of the model of 'big IP + small fresh meat + traffic' - the release dates of "Left Ear" and "The Year in a Hurry" are even earlier than "Little Times"!

"Left Ear" took nearly 6 million box office, higher than "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" and "Dragon Gate Flying Armor";

"The Year in a Hurry" directly took 8 million at the box office, directly pushing Liu Shishi to the position of the highest-grossing actress in a single film;

But he didn't abuse...

After these two films, they immediately changed directions, and Changlin Film and Television only produced works with large investment...

Of course, Tianxia Entertainment has inherited this model, but Tianxia Entertainment and Changlin Film and Television share a screenwriting team, so the youth entertainment produced by Tianxia Entertainment, including works created by pan-IP, has a good reputation!
But the investment market does not recognize the script, especially after the influx of hot money, the information that many laymen get is different from the real professional market.

Still the same sentence: It takes at least two years for a film to be released from planning to final release. If you are an amateur, you are gambling. It is equivalent to judging whether a stock will rise or fall in two or many years.

There are also some 'professional' ones, they want to control the profit and loss-the standard of a literary and artistic work depends on the profession, but profession does not mean hit.

They would much rather simplify things to a formula like "1+1+1=3", ideally finding an X element...

The standard of a good movie is a good story + good acting skills + good production.

But in the market, most of the time, a good story + good acting skills + good production will usually sell well, but it will not become a blockbuster!
The Internet has changed this - big IP+traffic means hits!

The project "Tomb Raiders Notes" was created in this way - Lu Han + Jing Boran + "Tomb Raiders Notes" IP...

"Tomb Raider Notes" is a very serious production. From the project approval stage, it was decided to go to "grave robbery" and follow the route of idolization and selling corruption. it is good.

After all, tomb robbery is the original sin!

Since you are called "Tomb Raider Notes", it means that you have a sense of mystery of original sin...

Don't say something like, "In the original book, only the third uncle is considered a tomb robber, and Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling are not counted...", you are already called "Tomb Raiders Notes"!

So, it is very clever to set up a dialogue between a writer and Wu Xie: "You talk nonsense, what you said to the editor-in-chief last time is not like this."

"I have another story. In that story, our first adventure was in Qixing Lu Palace. Later, Aning died, Pan Zi died, Dakui died, third uncle and brother disappeared, and now I I'm going to find them.'

Directly turn the movie into a story!
The box office of "Tomb Raiders" on the first day was 1.54 million, plus the 3400 million in advance, it was 1.88 million, which exceeded the 1.22 million of "Eight Hundred"...

The next day's box office was 1.2 million, and "Eight Hundred" was 1.42 million...

That's right, it failed to beat "Yaobai" the next weekend-"Tomb Raiders Notes" had a box office of 4.02 million in the first weekend, and "Yaobai" had 4.4 million in the second weekend!
"Eight Hundred" was released for ten days, with a cumulative box office of 17.8 billion...

It's still a problem with this mode - see the little fresh meat, directly lose points and get fucked!
The Douban word-of-mouth score of "Tomb Raiders Notes" is only a poor 4.9 points. Well, the main reason is that what fans of "Tomb Raiders Notes" went to the cinema to see was not the "Tomb Raiders Notes" they wanted to see, but two old masters They sell rot!
By the way, in addition to "Tomb Raiders Notes", there is also "Xia Youqiaomu, Yawang Paradise" and "My Best Friend's Wedding" starring Shu Qi. The market performance is very impressive...

The box office of "Xia You Qiao Mu" was only 1.5 million in the original time and space, but this time it was even lower, even only 6800 million in the first weekend...

"Journey to the West: Volunteering Demons" only feels the chrysanthemum tighten...

Even on August 8th, a working day, "Yaobai" still received 8 million in a single day, nearly 7600 million more than "Tomb Raiders Notes". 2000 million, the cumulative box office exceeded 8 billion!
It became the fourth movie in film history to break 20 billion, and the third work this year to break 20 billion...
