Is "The Truman Show" a literary film?

the answer is!

But is it an ordinary literary film?

Answer: No.

How special is it?

A masterpiece that can shatter the worldview after watching it.

After watching.

It will make people suspect that "I am the only one in the world".

It will make people foolishly ask why they are alive and why everyone around them is busy following the rules.

Wondering what the point is.

"Crying is not going to cry, but the psychological shadow should not escape."

To Zeng Jia's words, Lu Chen answered like this.

The national teacher is not the star master,

There are very few sentimental fans.

Countless Master Xing fans are waiting for Master Xing to come out, to put it bluntly.

If you can see Master Xing go into battle again.

Many people will buy tickets with their eyes closed.

Feeling fans are so devout.

That's what the industry says.

As long as the director is not filming, Master Xing's threat is reduced by half, or even half more.

This is one of the reasons why Lu Chen feels that it is not difficult to break the record set by "Kung Fu Panda".

Master Xing's "The Mermaid" won a box office of more than 30 billion without him personally performing it.

He performed "The Truman Show" himself, even though he wasn't the leading actor.

But so what?
As long as you can see Master Xing.

Coupled with the quality of "The Truman Show" and the appeal of Lu Chen and Tang Lei, there is basically no pressure to earn a domestic box office of 50 billion.

The remaining ten or two billion.

Hollywood can charge that much at will.

With the release of "Kung Fu Panda", their Jiaxing Media's reputation in Hollywood has been completely established.

Plus Lu Chen's influence.

All right.

Hearing what Lu Chen said, Zeng Jia instantly felt sorry for the national teacher again.

Really!

"Sometimes being too confident is not a good thing."

Lu Chen took a look at Zeng Jia and thought that this was really true.

This time the national teacher may really stumble.

And it was a big somersault, far bigger than "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins".

Meeting on a narrow road, the brave wins, does not exist here.

Even Lu Chen didn't care much.

Just play!
"Let's focus on foreign countries. If it's domestic, let it be."

On the domestic side, Lu Chen decided not to do anything and let nature take its course.

Things have developed to the point where Lu Chen has to doubt.

Could it be because he made a move at the beginning that caused the current situation.

simply put.

It is the national teacher who attributed most of the responsibility for the failure of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" to him.

It is believed that he led the audience to lead to the failure of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins".

Moreover, under his guidance.

"Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" also showed good box office competitiveness.

What does it mean?
It shows that the audience still loves to watch his movies.

therefore.

This time, Lu Chen decided to let nature take its course and try to let the audience step "The Great Wall" into the mud by themselves.

……

Compared to Lu Chen's side, he doesn't care.

Bad Monkey Media directly became an ant on the hot pot.

Director Ning scolded his mother directly.

"Facing Lu Chen, we are already under a lot of pressure. I didn't expect the national teacher to come to join in the fun."

Director Ning couldn't say "then fight", so he could only sigh helplessly.

Bad Monkey's Boss Wang also sighed helplessly: "Why don't we put it in the Spring Festival file. There are more people watching movies in the Spring Festival file, and it is more suitable for comedy films to make achievements."

"Can you guarantee that no one will participate in the Spring Festival? Not to mention anything else, just at the speed of Lu Chen's filming. Believe it or not, he is shooting now, and the Spring Festival can be released. There are also Director Feng, Director Chen, and Xu Zheng. ... They are all waiting eagerly. The National Teacher is most likely afraid of meeting these people during the Spring Festival, so they put "The Great Wall" on the National Day file. Compete with Lu Chen. It is not embarrassing to lose, and compete with others , It would be really embarrassing to lose, other people can't beat Lu Chen, but they have a lot of ideas about the position of the national teacher." Director Ning's mentality collapsed a little: "I made a comedy with a small cost film, what can I use to compete with these blockbuster films?"

Hearing this, Bad Monkey's Boss Wang was also depressed for a while.

He also felt that Director Ning was useless.

Although Lu Chen's "The Truman Show" is known as a literary film, have you ever seen a literary film with an investment of hundreds of millions?
Even if there is, can you guarantee that you can recover the cost?
Lu Chen can guarantee it.

Before Lu Chen failed, Lu Chen was still the undefeated god of war in the film industry.

For his films, the box office has to multiply the cost by five or six times.

This is still the least.

If the most.

Such as "Kung Fu Panda".

At least it has to be multiplied by twenty or thirty times.

What about literary films?
Isn't "Partner" a literary film, and hasn't it still earned more than one billion at the box office?
If you want to grab the box office in Lu Chen's hands, not everyone can do it.

As one of the top 10 domestic directors with the most box office appeal in the future.

It's not that Director Ning is afraid anymore, but he is not.

Of course, toughness is definitely not that tough.

"Old Wang, tell me, am I one-third as lucky as Old Xu?"

Boss Wang heard Director Ning's implication, frowned and said, "Old Ning, you don't want to fight, do you?"

Director Ning nodded: "That's right, not everyone belongs to Lu Chen. Old Xu can fight six at a time. I only need to defeat one of the three powerful ones. As long as there is one who is called my background board, I should be able to get on the board." It’s that position. Although it’s more likely to win “Fateful Encounter” on the Spring Festival file, the gold content is definitely not as good as this time frame, because there is Lu Chen in this time frame! This is why the National Teacher chose to put “The Great Wall” on this time. Due to the schedule, as long as he can withstand Lu Chen's pressure, he will be able to return to the altar."

Boss Wang thought about it for a long time, then nodded.

Director Ning's words convinced him.

Director Ning is only one step away from that position, but even though it is only one step away.

But it is not so easy to cross over.

This step cannot be crossed by relying on strength.

It also takes a little luck.

He thinks he doesn't have the luck that Xu Zheng has, but he doesn't need that much luck either.

It only takes a third.

Withstand the pressure of three powerful directors, or defeat one of them.

And the one he wants to beat.

There is no doubt that it is the national teacher.

If Lu Chen didn't show up,

It can be said that it is the dream of most directors in the entire director circle to be able to fight against the national teacher and win.

Even Director Chen and Director Feng regard the National Teacher as their only opponent.

but.

Although I wanted to compete with the previous game, I didn't have the chance for a long time.

Either the schedule was inappropriate, or one deliberately avoided the other.

unwilling to fight.

There is no winner or loser, so you can play as you want.

If there is a winner.

Then how can you blow it?
Being overwhelmed by someone for no reason is hard for anyone to accept.

therefore.

Even Director Feng and Director Chen wanted to compete with the National Teacher.

But under the influence of these factors, they all tacitly chose to let the audience judge for themselves.

Who doesn't have a few diehard fans?

"Then I'll start promoting it!"

"En." Director Ning nodded heavily, and then, looking up to see Boss Wang's still hesitant expression, he said again: "Don't worry, even if I lose, it won't affect me very much. I am Isn’t it normal for the weakest of them to lose? I chose this schedule because I want to gamble and catch a leak. I personally think there is a great chance of picking up this leak.”

Lu Chen is not the only one who knows the national teacher's script.

Director Ning must also know.

The national teacher is deeply involved without knowing it, and outsiders like Lu Chen basically have the same opinion.

Hearing this, Boss Wang didn't hesitate.

and so.

Director Ning is not very hypocritical.

The current film market is capable of supporting three blockbuster films.

of course,

The premise is not like Kung Fu Panda.

Otherwise, both are pretty good.

Following the announcement of the news, Director Ning dared to confront Lu Chen and the others head-on.

It directly surprised countless people in the industry.

……

Lu Chen also learned from Zeng Jia that "Desperate Encounters" did not plan to withdraw.

He was slightly stunned for a moment, and then he reacted.

The authorities are confused by the bystanders.

"Another powerful director in the entertainment industry is about to appear."

"Are you very optimistic about Director Ning's "Fatal Encounter"?" Zeng Jia was a little surprised by Lu Chen's reaction.

"You can think of it as a remake of "Lost in Thailand", but it's not made by Xu Zheng."

heard.

"So, there is a high probability that the National Teacher will become a stepping stone for Director Ning this time?"

Zeng Jia's expression was unusual.

Is it popular to use powerful directors as background boards now?

"The national teacher may be really difficult this time, and he has not much box office appeal left." Zeng Jia said quietly.

Anyone with eyes can see it.

The box office appeal of the National Teacher has been almost exhausted by now.

I want to arouse the upsurge of feelings like "The Mermaid".

The probability is basically zero.

do not know why,
Zeng Jia always felt that they underestimated the enemy, and reminded again: "Do you really think that a person can fall twice in the same pit?"

"Clam."

Having said so much, is it in vain?
"The problem is that people don't think it's a fall!"

"Isn't that a fall?"

"A box office of more than one billion, do you think it's a fall?" Lu Chen said speechlessly: "It's fine if they can make money, they will care what the audience thinks?"

"This……"

This time Zeng Jia finally understood.

It turns out that this is the core problem.

It is true that "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" was scolded, but did it affect people's money?

absolutely not!

So, is this the real fearlessness?
Does it have nothing to do with Lu Chen?

He is busy hiring people now!

……

Inside Uncle Ge's house.

This trip, Lu Chen originally thought that he had to spend some time.

who knows.

As soon as he explained his intention, Uncle Ge agreed without hesitation.

Such a result made Lu Chen a little dumbfounded.

Prepared for nothing?

In Uncle Ge's original words: "Do you still need to think about your script?"

This sentence was so powerful that it stunned Lu Chen.

After listening to Uncle Ge's explanation.

Lu Chen was stunned again.

The reason is very simple, that is the impact of Master Xing coming out again.

In the eyes of these big guys.

There is only one reason for Master Xing to come out again.

That's the script.

The script of "The Truman Show" was so good that Master Xing couldn't refuse.

Lu Chen knew this.

But the problem is that "Hello Capital" is not "The Truman Show".

However, although it is not, it is not as good as it is.

But Uncle Ge was still moved by the script of "Hello Capital".

Uncle Ge, the best actor in China, bar none!

This is Lu Chen's evaluation of Uncle Ge.

Uncle Ge, who has been active and productive in domestic films, can always incorporate his own unique charm within the framework of the characters themselves.

Whether it is serious literature or absurd comedy, his interpretation always makes you feel that this role is absolutely boring for others to play,
Therefore, Uncle Ge's irreplaceable status has been created.

Lu Chen can guarantee to finish filming "Hello Capital" in more than a month.

One of the most important reasons is here.

Work with a better actor!For the director, it is definitely the most worry-free thing.

cooperation between director and actor,

Basically can be divided into two stages.

The first stage is to start selecting actors.

This is the initial contact between the director and the actors.

The director should attach great importance to this stage of work, because the choice of actors is related to the success or failure of a film, and the director must not take it lightly.

The second stage is to start rehearsal and start shooting period.

At this stage, the director has to put a lot of energy into discussing and researching the characters with the actors, and instructing the actors on how to create vivid characters.

At this stage, sometimes the problem of switching actors also arises.

Through rehearsal and shooting, it may be found that a certain actor is not suitable for a certain role. If this happens, the director must make adjustments or exchange the actors.

This is also a helpless choice.

To choose other actors, not only Lu Chen had to spend more energy, but the actors also had to spend more energy.

If this role is replaced by someone else.

There must be someone who can act, but it is definitely not as easy as Uncle Ge.

Whether it is lines, facial expressions, or body language, Uncle Ge is delicate and accurate.

The point is that his whole performance is very loose, with a sense of ease.

Properly acted in his true colors.

Don't think it's easy to play these four characters with true colors.

In Lu Chen's view, these four words are the highest level of an actor.

After getting Uncle Ge done, the next step is to wait for the shooting.

the next day.

Lu Chen got in his assistant's car and went to the set of "Encounter".

Lu Chen on Jiang Yu's side was not very worried, but Lu Chen on Wu Ying and Yu Kui's side was still more worried.

Although both of them have taken the camera before, in Lu Chen's view, their previous level was a bit low. In order to avoid rework, Lu Chen decided to come and see for himself.

At the moment, the actors are working hard on filming.

He didn't notice Lu Chen's arrival.

What is being filmed now is the encounter scene on the two-person train.

In the previous life, Zhang Yi became a god because of this fragment.

On the bus, with tears in his eyes, the way he looked at his lover touched many people, so Zhang Yi's acting skills were also dubbed "acting skills that can't be covered by a mask" by everyone.

Compared with Zhang Yi, Wang Yi should be worse.

But if you grind it a few more times, it shouldn't be a big problem.

The atmosphere at the scene is not bad.

Everyone was talking and laughing during the filming process.

This may be Wu Ying's live style.

Because she is a female director, her affinity is much higher than that of Lu Chen.

It's easy to connect with actors.

Just that.

No one would associate her with Lu Chen.

Completely two extremes.

Lu Chen was serious and indifferent on the set, compared to Wu Ying.

completely opposite.

"Kah, take a break first."

During the break, someone finally saw Lu Chen.

About to speak.

Lu Chen waved his hand directly: "Don't worry about me, everyone, keep working."

At this moment, the assistant moved a chair for Lu Chen.

Wu Ying walked over.

Jokingly said: "Is Director Lu here to check the homework? Let me tell you, instead of coming to me, you might as well go to Yu Kui to see more. I have been with you for so long, and I still don't believe my strength? "

"Is there something in the words?"

Lu Chen said, "Why, are you treating Yu Kui as an opponent?"

Wu Ying smiled dumbly: "Director Lu, if you say I can't compare to her, will you lose face? After all, I have been with you for so long? If you can't compare to her, a newcomer, you will lose face .”

"So you guys are competing?"

"That's it."

"Then you're on your way."

In fact, Lu Chen also knew why the two were competing.

I just want to hold the mirror in advance!

In the eyes of both.

This time holding the mirror is Lu Chen's test for the two of them.

The winner becomes a full-time director and becomes Jiaxing Media's third independent director.

The loser continues to be his assistant director.

As for the deadline.

do not know!
However, this is entirely conjecture.

Lu Chen has never said such a thing, but although Lu Chen has never said it.

But also did not explain.

The competition between the two, in Lu Chen's view, has nothing to lose.

Only when there is competition will we work hard.

At this time, Duan Qiu and Wang Yi also came over, and they both greeted each other a little cautiously, and Lu Chen was a little bit dumbfounded at this: "You two's characters are really carved out of the same mold... Tsk tsk, how about you Let's get together."

Seeing the two of them, Lu Chen was out of breath.

Whether it was Wang Yi or Duan Qiu, both lacked some aggressiveness.

When an artist from another family was beaten to death, he had to fight for the first brother no matter what.

His Jiaxing Media!

Not for this one, not for that one.

If Wang Yi dares to fight Tang Lei.

Lu Chen might just hold it together.

Who said that a company can only have one brother?

As long as the resources are sufficient.

He can cultivate as many as he is willing to cultivate.

"Boss, stop joking..."

The two said honestly.

Wang Yi can be said to be the first actor to be trained by Lu Chen. It may be because he was a bit hard-trained at the beginning, which made this guy subconsciously nervous when he sees Lu Chen.

It stands to reason that this guy is the big brother of Jiaxing Media.

Tang Lei is an outsider.

If he wanted to compete with Tang Lei, Lu Chen would also be willing to support him.

Even if Lu Chen wanted to praise Tang Lei strongly, Zeng Jia would disagree.

After all, Wang Yi was the first brother of Jiaxing Media at that time.

Zeng Jia also saw Wang Yi's character.

Only then did he focus on Tang Lei and Yang Mi.

Who knows, the Yang Mi she brought out chose to leave.

Tang Lei who followed Lu Chen became the face of Jiaxing Media.

therefore.

In terms of judging people, Zeng Jia thought she couldn't compare to Lu Chen.

of course.

Compared to actors like Tang Lei, he actually prefers Wang Yi and Duan Qiu.

Really peace of mind.

Like Tang Lei, it is enough for a company to have a handle.

If there are too many, they will really fight.
