Started as an independent producer in 1988

Chapter 60 This is the level of a master!

In the summer night sky, the moon is big and round, illuminating the earth brightly.

It's a night like this that makes people don't want to go home. It would be great if they could go to play football.

Unfortunately, no one plays football during the school holidays, and even Yu Hua is anxious to go back to the small black room to continue writing his novel.

Most of the students in the literature class are trying to write novels, and some have already written novels.

Especially Chen Shiping, being a classmate with him is even more stressful. Yu Hua is only in his twenties and has his own arrogance in his heart.

"When I finish writing it, you make it into a movie for me. The kind that will win big awards. You and Mo Yan have both won awards. You can't forget about me." Yu Hua suddenly said to Chen Shiping.

Under the moonlight, Chen Shiping looked at Yu Hua's serious eyes hidden in the joke, nodded and said: "The novel you wrote will definitely win an award!!!"

If there is anyone in the world who believes in Yu Hua's talent the most, it must be Chen Shiping!

The two strolled for a while and then went back to their respective homes.

Chen Shiping had many things on his mind. When he returned to the dormitory and lay down, he was still thinking about how to finish the movie.

Films in the producer mode are the most difficult, but of course they are the easiest for directors and actors. They only need to worry about their own one-third of an acre.

Chen Shiping produced another literary script in the next few days, but he was not very satisfied with it no matter how he read it.

Finally, after thinking about it for a long time, I took the script to the Literature Department office to prepare for a script seminar.

The office of the Literature Department is on the third floor. Chen Shiping has not been there for a while since he was transferred to the one-bed center downstairs.

Now it's my homecoming, come back and see my old brothers.

Chen Shiping walked into the office of the Department of Literature and found that his position had been assigned to a newcomer.

The factory recruits many new people every year, including graduates from Tsinghua University, Peking University, Chinese Opera and Beidian.

The editing quality of the literature department is abysmal.

When they saw Chen Shiping come in, all the junior people in the office stood up and took the initiative to say hello.

Chen Shiping is no longer what he used to be. He may become a leader in the future. Everyone knows this.

"I haven't been back for a long time. I came to see everyone today."

Chen Shiping behaved very politely, then looked at Jiang Huayan who was there and said with a smile: "Teacher Jiang."

Jiang Huaiyan smiled and hummed. Thinking of yesterday's gossip, he asked curiously: "Are you preparing a new project?"

"Yes, this is not for everyone to see and optimize the script."

Chen Shiping pulled up a chair and sat down, looked at Wang Ruitao with a smile and shouted: "Teacher Wang."

People in the office were surprised when they heard that Chen Shiping came to them to study the script.

You have become a great writer, a great producer, and won a Cannes Grand Prix. How can your book be stuck in the factory?

"You are a great writer and you still need us to help you read the script."

"That's right, Producer Chen, you are too modest. You are from our literature department. Things are clear here."

"The books reviewed by the Literature Department are all handed in by ourselves. Producers like you don't need to get them from the Literature Department."

After everyone finished talking, Chen Shiping smiled and said: "This project requires a lot of investment. I want to be more rigorous, so I plan to hold a script seminar."

There is nothing wrong with the plot of Xiangjiang's movie, but many details are not very rigorous. Chen Shiping wants to continue to optimize it.

Once Upon a Time is definitely going to be made into a movie series, and Chen Shiping wants to do a better job than Mr. Xu!

You must be rigorous and strive for excellence!

After Chen Shiping explained a few words to them, he then looked at Wang Ruitao and said, "Teacher Wang, I wonder if we can make some arrangements. I'm going to invite some modern history professors from Beijing Normal University to hold a script seminar together."

"Of course, no problem. You can set the time. Where is the director? Have you chosen it?"

Wang Ruitao knew that this was a project that the factory director personally asked Chen Shiping to take charge of, so he naturally took it seriously.

"I haven't chosen yet. Let's finish the script first. I'm still looking for a director."

After Chen Shiping explained something, everyone in the office couldn't help but murmur in their hearts.

The directors in the factory are probably all competing for the lead. The last time Chen Shiping filmed Xu Sanguan, he had to find the director himself.

Now after winning the Palme d'Or, it's definitely the other way around and it's the director's turn to take the initiative.    The director is just a tool, and is not that important to Chen Shiping.

Domestic directors are all within the system. They are accustomed to making films, and they have no experience in commercial films.

Chen Shiping is preparing a high-budget film this time. Usually directors who can't handle the pressure will make something nondescript.

For example, papa-flavored chocolate.

Therefore, what Chen Shiping needs is a director who has solid basic skills and can shoot according to the shooting plan.

Give you a bottle of melted chocolate, all you need to do is pour it into the mold with a steady hand. Don't have any messy ideas, and you will definitely succeed!

After chatting in the literature department for a while, Chen Shiping left a copy of the script and went to report it to Song Tao.

How much money the factory still has and whether it can get full support are very important.

After Chen Shiping left, everyone in the literature department was curious about what script he had written this time, and they all gathered around to see if it was another work that was going to hit the big prize.

"Teacher Wang, what kind of script is this? Are you going to compete for awards again?"

"I heard that Shi Ping has published a new novel. Is it an adaptation?"

Wang Ruitao looked at the names on the cover of the script and handed it to them and said, "If you want to read it, take it and make a few copies."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone took the script to make copies.

Soon everyone in the office had a copy of the script, and the usual atmosphere of bragging and chatting disappeared.

Wang Ruitao was also reading the script. When he saw the title of the movie, he thought Chen Shiping was not up to standard, but after reading it, he changed his mind.

Criticize the evils of the times! Use the past to satirize the present! Feelings of family and country! National pride!

Wang Ruitao, who had studied Marxism-Leninism for several years, suddenly had many thoughts in his mind.

I am particularly touched by the character of Thirteenth Aunt, and I feel that this character is so cleverly designed.

After returning from studying abroad, Huang Feihong also taught Huang Feihong what feelings of family and country are, how to work hard and learn advanced knowledge.

Aren’t these the talents who returned to China to build their hometowns?

In the script, those foreigners tricked people into going to Jinshan to make a lot of money, and many people believed they wanted to go.

Ignorance and stupidity! I thought it was nice outside, but if I went there, I wouldn’t be working as a laborer!

If there was gold everywhere, it would be your turn to pick it up!

There are also those Shahe Gang who did evil things and finally knelt down and kowtowed and surrendered to the foreigners. Aren’t we talking about those who advocated for it! Advocate for foreigners!

Is Yan Zhendong, a martial arts master who has great martial arts skills but is dazzled by fame and fortune, the same as many people who study abroad but never come back?

Wang Ruitao suddenly thought that many actors would go abroad after becoming famous in China, and in the end they would end up washing dishes abroad.

You are still a movie actor at home, but abroad you are just a laborer washing dishes.

"Wonderful! These lines are well written!" Wang Ruitao suddenly said with emotion.

There is a line in the script where Huang Feihong asked Aunt Thirteen why he came back when it was so good abroad. Aunt Thirteen replied that there are things here that are not available abroad.

Huang Feihong asked again what it was, and Aunt Thirteen only answered one word.

Family.

The original line here is not Jia, it was changed by Chen Shiping himself.

In the original version, what is depicted here is Aunt Thirteen's feelings for Huang Feihong, and the answer is people.

Chen Shiping thought that was too stingy and made the role of Thirteenth Aunt fall into a cliché, so he changed it.

In the office of the Literature Department, there were either highly educated newcomers or veteran editors who had been dealing with scripts all their lives. They all saw the meaning of the script just like Wang Ruitao.

Everyone immediately applauded, this is a good genre film!

Chen Shiping is worthy of being a great director who can win the Palme d'Or, and he can also write such profound themes when writing genre film scripts!

The feelings of family and country and strong national pride in this script are incomparable to those current genre films that only emphasize the good and evil of human nature or the pursuit of novelty!

This is the level of a master!

Why didn’t I realize that Chen Shiping was so awesome before?

Many people in the Literature Department office thought that Chen Shiping suddenly became powerful after being kicked, and they couldn't help but touch their heads.

Why don't you do it for yourself?
