This director needs to apologize

Chapter 353 The Tower Near the Water
After asking several questions about "The Thirteenth Floor" but being ignored, Lan Yu finally gave up, knowing that Chen Yiming had made up his mind not to overwhelm the guest.

So Lan Yu circled back to Chen Yiming's new role, "Director Chen, you should like the position of producer very much. You have served as producer for directors Fu Ruixiang and Wang Wei. In the future, it is foreseeable that films directed by Tian Li and Li Zhun will also be produced. Will you be the producer? Will this be a fixed system for Platinum Jue? "

Chen Yiming said noncommittally, "We are a small company, and we often have to wear multiple hats. I am involved in project discussions, script creation and other aspects. In addition, I am also a judge during the project review, so it is smooth sailing as a nominal producer.

Mainly, just by putting my name on it, I can get an extra production fee, which is what I want. "

Of course, Lan Yu would not be fooled by Chen Yiming's laughter. She directly asked, "If Director Wang and you have a disagreement, whose opinion will prevail in the end?"

Chen Yiming did not beat around the bush, "Before the production was shut down, Director Wang must have had the final say. This is the same in Hollywood, which is a producer system. When I go to visit the studio, I will keep my mouth shut, mainly to pay for the treat."

After shutting down the phone, I will discuss it with Director Wang. Differences are inevitable, but I will try my best to convince him. "

Lan Yu smiled and said, "So has there ever been a situation where you couldn't be persuaded no matter what?"

Chen Yiming simply admitted it directly, "I can tell by your expression. You won't believe me when I say it never happened. Well, in rare cases I will make a decision directly. Director Wang is actually very reasonable, although he will inevitably be depressed for a while. ”

Lan Yu continued to gossip, "Then will you go and coax him?"

Chen Yiming's face was split. How on earth did this sister let her imagination run wild? The two big men were coaxing her back and forth, and the painting was so beautiful.

"Of course not. I'm not happy when he's depressed. If I coax him, who can coax me? Besides, the work pace is very tight during post-production, so I don't have any spare time to get sulky."

Lan Yu suddenly realized, "I don't know that Director Chen is quite hard-hearted. Is the same for Director Fu Ruixiang?"

Chen Yiming laughed and said, "I will be even more rude to Xiangrui, because she is easier to let go than Wang Wei. She will break away from the storyboard and do something else while filming. It is called inspiration."

Lan Yu smiled and asked, "What will you do then?"

Chen Yiming spread his hands and said, "What can I do? I am the director, not your marionette. The most I can do is let her shoot the storyboard draft no matter what. As for more inspiration, she can fly if she wants.

Anyway, I have the final say in editing. "

Lan Yu laughed loudly, "I can already imagine Director Fu's anger in the editing room. Despite this, you are still the producer of her new film. How did you convince her?"

Chen Yiming waved his hand and said, "No persuasion is needed. She is procrastinating in writing her own notebook, but she has no time to spare, so I will give her an idea and use my hand."

Lan Yu had been laying the groundwork for a long time and finally said, "One day in the future, if An Xixi directs her debut film, will you write the script for her and be the producer?"

Chen Yiming was speechless, and Lan Yu had also learned bad things. The fuse was actually so long, and they were waiting for her here together.

"She is mainly an actor now, and she has no plans to become a director. It is too early to talk about this."

Lan Yu nodded seriously, "It seems that you have indeed discussed similar plans, but they have been shelved for the time being. So when do you think it will be?"

Chen Yiming was speechless, what do you want to do with your tacit expression? It creates an established fact, right?

So he said, "In principle, I will not consider deeply involved in projects outside the company, and it is difficult to balance the energy. However, I am willing to communicate with colleagues in the industry at the creative level. During this period, I will talk about everything I know." , and I and Bo Jue promise not to charge copyright fees for this.”

As expected, Lan Yu's attention was taken away, and he opened his eyes wide and said, "Director Chen, do you mean that you are willing to write scripts for external teams?"

Chen Yiming nodded, "Why not? You must know that in this circle, the most indispensable thing is ideas, creativity and stories, even if the three characters Chen Yiming are prefixed, it will be the same."

Lan Yu shook his head repeatedly, "Director Chen, you are too arrogant to belittle yourself. Your screenwriting ability is undoubtedly the best in the industry. It is hard to imagine that there are filmmakers who are not interested in your story.

What made you make such a dramatic shift? Does the scale of Platinum Jue prevent you from unleashing your explosive talents?
My God, after this interview is broadcast, it will definitely cause a sensation in the industry. Are you ready to have the threshold crossed? "

Chen Yiming only thought that Lan Yu's exaggerations were just for the show's effect. He replied calmly, "No one has asked me before. It is true that some outside bosses have invited me to be a director, but no one has ever asked me to buy it." I don’t need to rush to promote myself. I really don’t need the screenwriting fee. When I first started working on "Holiday in Magic City", I really wanted to try my hand as a screenwriter and team member, but no one took it. Well, I can only do it myself.”

Chen Yiming's words were so Versailles that Lan Yu, who had made up his mind to become a fan girl today, was a little unsure.

As a result, her performance in the follow-up interview was a little distracted, and compared to her previous enthusiasm, it seemed to have ended hastily.

The following Monday, the movie channel's Lan Yu Living Room played Chen Yiming's video interview as scheduled. "The Usual Suspects" was the first of its promotional period as expected, and the effect was very loud!
What the industry is paying attention to is Chen Yiming's analysis and judgment on the development of the industry. Generally speaking, whether Zang Shao has more or less, after all, his statement slapped many people in the industry in the face, especially those who easily compare "unparalleled masterpieces" and "unparalleled masterpieces". Company bosses who talk about "industrialization".

Zhang Weiping, who had an old grudge against Chen Yiming, had the most unpleasant words. Zhang Dapao bluntly said that Chen Yiming was "arrogant and obsessed with superiority. He wanted to point out the country before his hair was even grown. It was disgusting that he was sober when everyone was drunk." "

Zhang Weiping also said that Chen Yiming's analysis is just nonsense that sounds correct. The fact is that every time slot throughout the year is now filled with domestic and foreign blockbusters. The ordinary movies that Chen Yiming talks about have never been the trend of the industry, but are just his own direction. Just a fig leaf for mediocrity.

Lao Zhang is worthy of being a cultural businessman. His eloquence and literary talent are above the standard. His words are straight to the point and catchy, which immediately spread the word.

Da Zhuang was quite surprised, so he asked a friend to find out the whole story. It stands to reason that Sun Wangquan will not have any movies to be released by the end of this year. Why did Zhang Dapao come to such a shameless place?

After asking around, no one could find out the reason. It can only be attributed to Zhang Weiping's displeasure with Chen Yiming.

In fact, there are many people who help Lao Zhang. These days, there are many people in the circle who don’t have a few close mouthpieces. As the saying goes, Chen Yiming has just been yin and yang, and people have already seen him. The booming trend has somewhat restrained itself.

It is not that there are no favorable opinions, but usually a tail is added at the end of the copy to indicate that Chen Yiming's view is too optimistic, and that Bo Jue has taken half a step more, and is very likely to become a lonely pioneer.

In such an atmosphere of public opinion, Platinum Jue has released two "ordinary movies" in a row at the end of this year and the beginning of next year. One is behind "Jaws" and "Transformers 4", and the other is in the Spring Festival period when there are many blockbusters. We can't blame the outside world for being generally negative.

At least many people in the industry should be happy to see "The Usual Suspects" suffer a box office failure.

Compared with the clamor in the industry, netizens were very happy to hear Chen Yiming's interview.

This guy really makes fans love and hate him. What I love is that the movies he creates are all very good, and every time he can find some fresh faces that are eye-catching. People who eat melons naturally like the new and hate the old. Chen Yiming likes it. Use the behavior of new people to naturally like them.

What I hate is that he cherishes his face like gold. It's not that he never shows his head when he announces his hair. Sometimes he doesn't even show his head when he announces his hair. I don't know if he is addicted to hide-and-seek.

Nowadays, it is rare for him to do a video interview, and it lasts quite a long time. With such a delicious food, fans will naturally zoom in frame by frame to have a full meal.

For example, his relationship with Wang Wei and Fu Ruixiang was parodied. "I have the final say in editing anyway" became a meme. Wang Wei couldn't be found for a while, so some media went to Qindao to visit him. Ask Xiangrui for confirmation.

Xiangrui does not need any additional explanation in this regard. The release of the director's cut of "Love Letter" confirmed Chen Yiming's domineering nature and added fire to the interview.

She didn't forget to blow the wind in Wang Wei's direction, revealing that in order to monopolize the final editing rights, Chen Yiming actually sent Wang Wei out of the editing room to take a bath, adding another joke to netizens.

An Xixi, who also lives in Qindao, is also the focus of attention. Lan Yu's quote about the relationship between the two was broadcast intact, and was regarded by fans as Chen Yiming's "acquiescence" to Chen Anlian.

Of course, An Xixi would not say anything about it. The two of them had already had a tacit understanding about this. The girl did not get such a high degree for nothing. She could stun reporters with half the skill of the essay. An Xixi didn't even talk about whether he would join Platinum Jue. Give half a sentence.

The two talked on the phone in the evening, and the girl was quite excited, saying that this kind of interview was much more exciting than the road show interview during "Love Letters".

To Lan Yu's surprise, the news that Chen Yiming supplied the script did not trigger much discussion, which was completely different from her previous assumptions.

Chen Yiming knows that this is normal. Screenwriters have never been a hot topic among netizens. As for his peers, who is really interested in it will raise his voice and spread it around. Of course, he will quietly go to the village to shoot.

Chen Yiming's personal phone calls were all inundated, and even Gu Yuehe came to ask him for the book, even if he was not the director but the starring role.

The magic city circle is not big, so Gu Yuehe has also heard the story that Chen Yiming tailor-made for Xiao Qi. Now that he knows that Chen Yiming has the idea of ​​​​big rewards, Lao Gu, as a good friend, naturally wants to be close to the water.
