Chapter 465 Youth is like a flowing river (22)

Before the Spring Festival, we discussed the adaptation of "Big Buddha" for nearly two weeks, but in the end we still couldn't reach an agreement.

Similar to the situation in "The Tuner", Kong Yaojie found it difficult to accept Yang Yi's request that he write the script himself and that the film should be shot according to his model and not arbitrarily tamper with the script and shooting ideas he provided.

"Teacher Shi, it's okay. Cooperation cannot be done without mercy. Moreover, we, Director Yang, are still actors you have directed. We will definitely have opportunities to cooperate in the future."

When Le Zehan sent Shi Yanqiu to the airport, he was still saying polite words.

This time, Mr. Shi came to the capital specially to talk to Yang Yi sincerely about cooperating in the adaptation of "Big Buddha".

But Yang Yi didn't want this good movie to be changed beyond recognition by others, especially a director he didn't trust very much, so he still insisted on his own conditions.

"Yes, there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future. I actually feel sorry for Xiao Kong, he"

Shi Yanqiu hesitated to speak, and finally shook his head.

Shi Yanqiu actually wanted to agree to Yang Yi's conditions.

From his point of view, the movies and TV series produced by Yang Yi are better than those of Kong Yaojie in terms of commerciality, artistry and ideological depth.

Having Yang Yi write the script, draw storyboards for you, and guide you on how to shoot is equivalent to following Yang Yi and learning his ideas. When the time comes, the film director can also sign his own name. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Kong Yaojie. Only when your brain is showing off can you refuse.

Obviously, Kong Yaojie, who is over 40 years old, still fails to understand himself correctly. He stubbornly adheres to his own ideas and his so-called pride. He would rather not make "Big Buddha", a movie that he also likes very much. Willing to accept Yang Yi's script and guidance.

However, this is Kong Yaojie. If he could correct his mistakes and correct them, he would not have continued to decline after becoming famous at a young age.

And Shi Yanqiu can't blame Kong Yaojie, because he is also a stubborn person!From the perspective of a bystander, Shi Yanqiu could still clearly see the pros and cons, but if this matter had been him in Kong Yaojie's position and situation, he would definitely not be willing to agree to Yang Yi's "harsh" request.

Comparing oneself with others, as an award-winning director, it is normal for Kong Yaojie to be proud.

Shi Yanqiu has spared no effort to help Kong Yaojie in recent years. Is it not because Kong Yaojie has a similar personality to him?

At the same time, Shi Yanqiu saw Kong Yaojie's talent as a director, and he cherished his talent. Only after the "New Generation of Directors" program ended, did he sign Kong Yaojie to his own Zhiqiu Film and Television, and also found resources for him to make movies.

But now it seems that all his hard work has been in vain.

After returning to the Magic City, Shi Yanqiu rested for two days feeling exhausted both physically and mentally.

I accidentally picked up my phone to read the news, and suddenly realized that today's hot searches were occupied by Yang Yi again!

Moreover, these hot searches have little to do with the movie "Yangtze River No. 7" that Yang Yi is preparing to release.

"Short film?"

When Shi Yanqiu saw the word "short film", she thought it was their discussion with Mumu Film and Television that was reported to reporters, but upon closer inspection, she found out that they were actually talking about Yang Yixin's short film "Oldboy"!
"# Before the Spring Festival, Yang Yi reappeared in Wang Zha's short film, and Ma Shiqing cried out for all the old boys in a song."

"#ENSURING You have to watch Yang Yi, "Oldboy" made those born in the [-]s and [-]s cry like dogs."

“#Youth is like a flowing river, once it’s gone there’s no time to come back and say goodbye.”

"#Brothers sharing weal and woe, the original cast of "Space Exploration Editorial Department" reunited again in "Oldboy."

"# Reveal the story behind oldboys, Yuesi has released the behind-the-scenes special of "Oldboys" from "Yang Yi's Directing Lesson"." These hot searches made Shi Yanqiu have a great interest in Yang Yi's short film.

He searched online and quickly found the resources of the Yuesi platform.

It turns out that this short film was released yesterday!
Because it was filmed by Yang Yi, and at the same time, the original team of "Space Exploration Editorial Department" was used in the previous trailer to promote it, so "Oldboy" does not have to wait for word-of-mouth fermentation, and does not have to wait for netizens to spread it by word of mouth. Within half an hour it had millions of views.

Now is the second day. Countless netizens have watched the short film, the discussion is unprecedentedly heated, and naturally hot searches have also come up.

Shi Yanqiu lit a cigarette, opened the video and started watching.

It starts with a campus plot. Shi Yanqiu can tell from the lighting and color palette that Yang Yi is filming "memory", a campus story with a sense of the times.

However, there is a difference between years and years.

The era when Mr. Shi was studying was very different from the era when these "young people" on the mobile phone screen lived. The difference was not only the era, but also the century!
Shi Yanqiu didn't have much feelings about the memories that many netizens expressed with emotion. He just felt that these young people were very noisy and typically full of food.

When he was studying, he didn't even have enough to eat. The learning atmosphere on campus was very strong, and few people were willing to waste energy chasing and fighting!Moreover, at that time, boys and girls were required to keep a distance. Even the most naughty adolescent boys would not express their feelings of admiration in public.

Who dares to hold a guitar and run downstairs to the girls' dormitory to sing?

That's a hooligan!

Mr. Shi was somewhat distracted because he couldn't resonate with it. At this time, he noticed the time under the progress bar.

"How much? 36 minutes? Isn't this short film a bit long?"

Shi Yanqiu was a little confused.

The duration of micro-movies ranges from a few minutes to ten to ten minutes, but generally does not exceed three to ten minutes.

Why did Yang Yi make such a long short film?
Isn't he worried that the audience can't stand it?
Shi Yanqiu didn't know that when Yang Yi was filming and editing, he was already trying his best to adjust the rhythm and compress the duration. The original film of "Oldboy" is more than 40 minutes long. If you shoot a little longer, it can be broadcast in cinemas.

Yang Yi likes the story told in this film and the song "Oldboy" very much, but he cannot praise the film's directorial ability and editing level.

Therefore, he made a lot of adjustments, not only telling the story more concisely and smoothly, but also using a lot of camera language to replace the characters' lines - if the story can be told through the camera, don't use lines .

Therefore, the final film of "Oldboy" was compressed to 36 minutes.

He was reluctant to cut the remaining scenes because he wanted to ensure the integrity of the story and that the stories contributed by the brothers could be told within the frame.

But Shi Yanqiu still felt it was a bit long.

"Is it necessary to spend so much time telling these plots?"

Watching "Ma Dabao" self-righteously singing and acting cool on campus, not realizing that he is ugly, watching "Zhang Xiaoshuai" practicing dancing crazily but not being recognized by his classmates, calling him a sissy, watching "Zhang Xiaoshuai" Being bullied by the jealous "Ma Dabao", the two did not know each other until they started fighting, and became good friends and partners. Shi Yanqiu couldn't help but wonder, could all of this be deleted?

Mr. Shi roughly figured out the main plot of the short film from previous hot searches.

If it was about two middle-aged men who decided to compete in the competition and finally achieved "success", shouldn't more focus be placed on how failed they were in life?
