China Entertainment: I am a big boss in the industry

Chapter 532 A master of arts is bold

The creative team only answered some superficial questions.

The kind that can be revealed.

Confidential privacy issues involving the script and subsequent filming will naturally not be disclosed to the public.

Reporters could only tease out details from their answers.

The press conference lasted a total of one hour and fifty-three minutes.

After finishing the questioning process with reporters, Lin Gao took out another 20 minutes and gave them to his fans, allowing them to ask as many questions as they wanted.

The fans' attitude was more friendly.

After finishing the interaction with fans, Lin Gao took the initiative to ask the staff to take out the gift bags sealed in brown paper bags and gave one to each person present.

Whether they are reporters, cameramen or fans.

The gift package is really big.

There are not only autographed photos, but also some things worth hundreds of dollars.

All in all, the value of each handbag is about one thousand yuan.

As soon as it was delivered, over a hundred copies were given away.

It's a big deal in another sense.

Such an operation undoubtedly touched everyone deeply.

After all, in other press conferences I attended before, no one was so thoughtful as to prepare gifts for them.

Not to mention that there was a long dining table next to the table, with small cakes, yogurt and other drinks on it.

It was specially prepared during the waiting stage to prevent them from getting hungry.

So thoughtful.

How can it not move people and warm their hearts?

After leaving the venue, everyone was still talking about their feelings.

"Lin Gao is really a good actor. His talent, looks, and personality are all top-notch."

"Who says it's not?"

"Hey, have you finished writing the manuscript? Let me take a look, brother. I'm still stuck here!"

"Huh? I showed you what I used to publish? Get out of here! Don't force me to beat you!"

The reporters were all busy going back to perfect their manuscripts and publish the news.

So they left while fighting.

The fans were provided with round-trip air tickets and two days of food and accommodation.

You can spend another two days in Shanghai.

Everyone left in batches.

Half an hour later, news about the "Matrix" press conference began to appear on the Internet.

#Work hard for the rise of Chinese films, Lin Gao is a role model in the film industry#
#Lin Gao invested 2 billion in "The Matrix", he is so brave and skilled! #
#The Godfather of Chinese Films - Lin Gao calls for films to improve their quality#
#Publicly accusing unscrupulous directors, Lin Gao predicts that Chinese films will eventually compete with Hollywood#
"."

Lin Gao had neither the mood nor the time to pay attention to the public opinion that had arisen on the Internet as a result of these news.

Because he has more important things to do.

The main creative team of "The Matrix" has assembled.

The film is about to start shooting.

Lin Gao is not a "Zhou Baopi" in the traditional sense, so after the press conference, the entire crew was given two days to play and pack their luggage.

After two days, personnel must join the team.

As for the director, there are still some issues that need to be resolved.

Although Lin Gao invited Nolan to direct.

But after all, it is a script jointly produced by China and foreign countries, so this proposal is highly valued by the higher-ups.

So I gave Lin Gao a few words.

We can invite domestic directors with similar styles to come and learn from them.

As for how to learn.

This was something that Lin Gao needed to consider. After careful consideration, Lin Gao invited Guo Fan to be the assistant director.

what?
Do you want to ask who Guo Fan is?
Ha——He’s also an old acquaintance of Lin Gao.

As for why Guo Fan was invited, it was naturally because of the style issue mentioned above.

Directors with similar styles.

So - who can be chosen as the director whose style fits that of "The Matrix" this time?
There are only a few directors in China who can direct science fiction films.

Without much thought, Lin Gao chose an old acquaintance director, Guo Fan, with whom he had worked once before.

The last time the two collaborated was in "The Wandering Earth".

That's right.

Guo Fan is the director of "The Wandering Earth".

This director, screenwriter and producer was born in Ji City.

It is worth mentioning that Guo Fan did not study directing and editing in an orthodox way. He attended Nanhai University, one of the 985 universities in China, and majored in law.

After studying for a degree, he worked as a producer in the national tourism program team.

Ten years later.

Guo Fan was admitted to the graduate school of management at Beijing Film Academy.

From then on, his career as a director began.

Two years later, his debut film won the Best Asian Film Award at the 16th Simida Fantastic Film Festival.

"The Wandering Earth", a collaboration with Lin Gao and Wu Jing, won more than a dozen awards.

That's why Lin Gao invited him to come as a Chinese director to collaborate with Nolan and co-direct this movie.

Guo Fan was deeply touched by such trust.

Lin Gao’s idea is also simple and clear.

If you want to make progress, you can't just talk about it or dream about it.

Then we need to learn and evolve systematically?
Now that Director Nolan is here, shouldn’t such a great learning opportunity be provided to our own people first?

Right?

Making a good movie is like cooking a good dish.

Even if you use mineral water that costs 500 yuan a bottle, Wagyu beef that is priced by weight, or expensive seasonings, what’s the use without a good chef?

The essence is that the chef still needs to be awesome.

Speaking of this, I have to bring up "Shanghai Fortress" again.

With so many top-notch plans and investments, and a full 300 million in start-up capital, they came up with something like this. Lin Gao didn't even want to admit that this was some crap that their Chinese directors could produce.

If you can't make a good movie with 300 million yuan, you'd better eat shit.

The art films that other people make with three million dollars have more substance than yours.

After making an appointment, Lin Gao took Guo Fan to meet Nolan in advance, which was considered as a formal introduction to director Nolan.

"Director Nolan, this is Director Guo Fan who will be working with you on this film in the next two months. Please don't hesitate to let him handle any complicated tasks."

Lin Gao and Guo Fan have a close relationship.

So he said with a smile.

Guo Fan couldn't help but twitching his lips, but because his idol was in front of him, he didn't bother to argue with others.

With a smile on his face, Guo Fan took two steps forward and extended his hand with a little excitement to introduce himself.

"Hello, I'm Guo Fan, and I've been your fan for many years."

"It's really an honor to be able to co-direct with my idol this time."

Director Nolan was also smiling. Lin Gao had told him about this matter before, and mentioned that the director he would be working with this time was the one who had filmed "The Wandering Earth".

Regardless of whether Director Nolan had any objections before, after hearing the words "The Wandering Earth", he no longer had any thoughts of objection.

I even look forward to meeting people early on.

He reached out and shook it back.

"Hello, your filming of The Wandering Earth is very good. Maybe we can discuss and exchange filming techniques sometime!"
