What kind of bad thoughts can the director have?

Chapter 161 Mature and Suitable
"Heavenly Love Letter" was only released in Japan in early September, and the final box office was equivalent to more than 3000 million yuan.

However, this grand occasion did not extend to South Korea. The film is currently being screened there. Compared with Japan, the popularity is much lower, and the box office performance is also mediocre.

At that time, Yang Shu was filming the battle of the Han River, and there seemed to be some kind of different providence in the dark, and he was quite puzzled: "The previous filming of the Anti-Japanese War did not affect the Japanese box office. "

During a break between filming, he casually chatted with Ning Song: "It stands to reason that Bangzi cares more about things like innocence than devils. Could it be that something in our film doesn't suit their tastes, and there are cultural problems?"

The Battle of the Han River took place in winter, and it was filmed in the snow. It was cold and Ning Song put on a padded coat from the volunteer army. Hearing this, he laughed: "Culture is a fart, water and soil are a fart, I didn't expect you to have a lack of knowledge, who Did I tell you that Bangzi likes the nonsensical stuff like Pure Love Art?"

"You're so out of tune, aren't you? They've made a lot of romance dramas, and the heroes and heroines are as innocent as three-year-olds. In my impression, even a kiss on the mouth makes a fuss."

"That's just pretending. I'm afraid there is a huge misunderstanding in it, or some of us were deceived by the image deliberately created by others."

"Why do you say that, it sounds like you have done a lot of research."

"Of course, do you know what my ideal was a few years ago?"

"I think it should be three wives and four concubines who are all over the world?"

"That's my younger brother's ideal. My ideal is to write a book, a very academic book, called "The History of the Development of Sex in the World."

"Writing a book?"

"Yes, the title of the book has been written, and the title of each chapter has also been thought of."

"This is really a lofty ambition, the ideal of a sage," Yang Shu was a little surprised: "Did you see the theoretical height from watching the film?"

"Let's put it this way, if you read too much, you will naturally understand. The end of a sage is a wise man."

"As long as you insist on reading more and thinking more, an iron rod can be ground into a needle. It is a good thing to be determined to write a book."

"Ask you about the basic knowledge of pornography, which country is the world's largest pornographic country?"

"You've asked this question, so it must be a stick. I will deduct points if I answer devils. If I say something about Germany and the Netherlands, it may be too far away."

"The answer is accurate, plus [-] points. Speaking of the big country, many people inexplicably smiled knowingly, and then remembered the book. This is a shameful common sense mistake. It is a neglect of the proud Bangzi nation, and it can even be said to be contempt."

"I really don't know much about this. Although Bangzi is the number one in the universe, he can't understand the reputation and performance accumulated by the devils for decades. You have to show some face, right?"

"It's not a robbery this time. We have to respect the facts. Bangzi's sex industry is indeed better, far surpassing Little Japan."

"For such a serious academic issue, you have to have figures to support the conclusion."

"Now you are asking about my strengths. I have been collecting information." Ning Song checked the files on his phone and found them in a short while: "Let me read to you: In 2014, the "Japan Times" investigation It shows that the per capita consumption of South Korean men in the sex industry is 527 US dollars, surpassing the 370 US dollars of Japanese men, ranking first in Asia and even the world, and number one in the world, with an annual sex transaction of 14 trillion won."

"Isn't it a bit unconvinced that Japanese newspapers went to South Korea to investigate?"

"Of course I feel uncomfortable being robbed of the first place. I have calculated that 13 trillion won is almost equivalent to 750 billion yuan. You can buy two Nimitz aircraft carriers."

"What I just said is that per capita consumption ranks first. In addition, the Korean Criminology Association released a set of data two years ago. Among the [-] Korean men surveyed, more than half of them have had sex. This is also the world's No. [-]. One, far ahead.

You have to know that the French men who claim to be romantic, the Italian men who love to flirt, and the Spanish men who can’t control themselves, only 30.00% of them have bought the spring. "

"The Light of Asia."

"What's more, one out of every five males over the age of 20 in Korea buys sex at least once a week, which is also the number one in the world."

Yang Shu laughed: "Looking at your data, I can only say that Ouba's physical strength is really good. Although they are messing around, the main force of pure love movies is women. I still don't understand why you said you created an illusion."

"Actually, Ouba's physical strength is not enough. Some time ago, the research institute actually detected that Weige's ingredients exceeded the standard in the Han River. Can you imagine that the river water exceeds the standard? The per capita consumption of Weige is also the first in the world, and relevant news can be found online.”

"As for the innocent female audience of pure love movies you mentioned, I'm afraid there is really a shortage.

We all know that wherever the U.S. military is stationed, it must be an area where the sex industry is prosperous. This is the case for Benzi, the Philippines, and the Monster Country, and Korea is of course no exception.

According to a report by an investigative agency of the United Nations, more than half of the women near the US military bases stationed in South Korea admitted to having sex with American soldiers, and the number reached more than 30.

Can you imagine?More than half, what kind of concept is this? "

In fact, the correct statement may be that a large number of women gathered near these bases to provide services for the US military, with a cumulative number of as many as 30. It is not that more than half of the local women participated in business activities.

Yang Shu didn't realize it all at once: "It means that except for the elderly and children, basically everyone has joined the battle? What age data is this? I don't believe it, it's impossible."

"Believe it or not, in addition, there are more than one million women in Korea engaged in sex work, accounting for [-]% of the fertile population, and the income of sex work accounts for [-]% of the country's GDP."

"What is the concept of four percent?"

"The so-called three barrels of oil of Sinopec, PetroChina, and CNOOC account for 5.00% of GDP. You can compare it, it's so awesome."

"I remember that trading in Japan and South Korea is illegal, right?"

"Breaking the law, the penalty is heavier than ours. The evidence is solid and one year in prison, but it is not too serious."

"For example, at Bangzi, you only need to buy a bottle of wine from a girl and drink together, and sell meat to sell wine, but this is defined as an act of love in law, and you can catch it no matter what you do.

Devils are more artistic, usually selling a lollipop to the customer at a high price, and then it is legal. "

"No wonder there are so many photos and cartoons of girls holding lollipops in Japan, so it turns out to be so H."

"I'll go, you are also an old driver."

"Okay, I understand, so the devil has gained a false reputation in this regard. What he is really trying to play is the stick. In comparison, the devil is much more innocent."

"It should be said that the book is still a bit aesthetically pleasing, and the stick is much worse. Movies like "Love Letter from Heaven" are unlikely to be popular there."

"Let's be humble. These words are not logical. Don't say that the movie is not good enough because it's not pure enough. Maybe it's because of the difference in aesthetics."

"Anyway, that's the answer you asked me. It doesn't matter if I find the deep-seated reasons from the social structure."

In fact, there are some issues that cannot be generalized. Teacher Tan's music for "Love Letter from Heaven" is very successful, pure and flawless, sad but not sad, not only in Japan, but also in Korea.

Before the filming of "Warrior" started, Yang Shu had already started to think about what soundtrack to use.

Do you want to continue asking Mr. Tan to score this movie?

I'm afraid it won't work, even Jiang Shiyu said: "Teacher Tan only provides soundtracks for art films. Everyone knows this. Themes like "Warrior" don't suit his taste, so he won't agree."

Yang Shu thought so too, and Teacher Tan's music style didn't quite match the film.

Because of the group editing, most of the rough editing of the film has been completed, and the artists of the special effects company have been following the shooting work to model the scene, and the relevant special effects can also be completed in early March, so the most important thing next is the soundtrack.

After the wrap-up banquet, everyone got together to chat and talked about this issue. Although most people admitted that the soundtrack is very important, they also believed that the soundtrack of war movies is mainly to set off the atmosphere, and it may be more appropriate to find a soundtrack composer for a Hollywood blockbuster.

Brother Chao said: "An old song with a simple melody like "Playing My Beloved Earth Pipa" can be called a classic. A large part of the reason is the spotlight effect. There were too few movies back then, and one movie was watched for 30 years. , I am familiar with everything.

However, this is an episode of the film, not the theme soundtrack. Can you think of the soundtrack of "Railway Guerrilla"?
So the effect is the key. The domestic soundtrack is relatively weak, and it is still necessary to invite an internationally renowned team to do it. "

Before Yang Shu started filming "Warrior", he watched the old movie "Railway Guerrilla" more than once. In fact, it was still monophonic at that time, and there were very few soundtracks and ambient sounds.

International cooperation is the successful experience of Brother Chao. From "Assembly", we can see the advantages of international cooperation. This domestic war film, the producer and the blasting team are all Korean, and it almost copied "The Flag of Taiji".

He is also very familiar with Wu Jing, and told Yang Shu that the production of "Wolf Warrior 2" has been completed. The assistant director, soundtrack, post-production special effects, and even action design of this film are all hired by the Hollywood team: "This is the trend of blockbuster films in the future. .”

He filmed "Galaxy Tutorial" by himself, and he also used Hollywood soundtrack composers.

Niang Niang also suggested hiring a soundtrack artist with mature experience in the market: "If the soundtrack of "Bright Sword" can be made more refined and atmospheric, with enough nice episodes, it should also produce classics."

Her words were echoed by most people. Yang Shu would have forgotten that Sun Li played the wife of Political Commissar Zhao in this classic war drama. Now that I think about it seriously, the number of replays of "Bright Sword" is comparable to "Journey to the West". Except for the characters and the plot, nothing left an impression on the audience, which is a bit regrettable.

Everyone is right and professional, and they also introduce master figures such as John Williams, who composed the soundtracks of "Schindler's List", "Saving Private Ryan", "Star Wars" and other movies.

"As long as they can afford it, these people will cooperate."

Yang Shu also began to hesitate, whether to ask a Hollywood master to make a soundtrack as everyone suggested?
But there is a melody that lingers in his mind. After various soundtracks during this period, he has formed multiple styles. It feels not so mature and suitable, but it is difficult to let go.
