Chapter 149 Tragedy or Comedy (please vote)
With the anesthesia of alcohol, Li Xuexue felt much better.
After three days of filming, this scene was finally completed. Not only was Li Xuexue tortured, Qi Hao was also tortured.
"I fucked your uncle!"
Wang Zhiwen rushed over and caught Commander Zhang who was about to shoot him from behind.
At this point, Takeda and Commander Zhang need to arrange for someone to take the blame.
Who can be more suitable than Wang Tianxiang?
That's right, you are an old gun!
"Chang Takeda," he begged Qi Hao: "Chang Takeda, I have always been...you know very well about me!"
Qi Hao shot with a bang.
Then Wang Zhiwen stopped, this bitch was really annoying.
The character Wang Tianxiang he played was Takeda's dog, but in the end he became the scapegoat.
As for whether I have always had a soft spot for you... or something else, it doesn't matter anymore.
After Qi Hao finished filming this scene, it was completely finished.
A few days ago, he had actually filmed a scene where he was having fun. When he was about to return to Neon as a war criminal, his throat was secretly slit by Zhang Hanyu.
It’s also very satisfying.
Gao Qunshu also gave him a red envelope.
Generally, when actors have to play a dead person or enter a coffin or other scenes, the crew will give them red envelopes.
The discerning crew will also set off firecrackers after the performance. If there are no firecrackers, the assistant director or the extras leader will organize a few people to step on the red envelope.
The amount of the red envelope will not be too large. After all, acting as a dead person is a bad thing, so everyone is just looking for some comfort.
In addition, the red envelopes issued must be spent on the same day.
With the ten-dollar red envelope, Qi Hao went to make skewers that night.
His scenes were arranged in a relatively concentrated manner, from the time he joined the crew in February until mid-March.
After the film was completed, Qi Hao left the crew.
When he left, Li Xuexue didn't even have a good look towards him. It seemed that as soon as she saw him, she thought of the humiliation she had suffered.
This woman was a bit crazy. Qi Hao didn't want to repair the relationship, so he simply ran away.
Gao Qunshu originally planned to arrange a wedding banquet for him, but he declined.
Qi Hao returned to the company, and in front of him was the cut "Steel Piano".
This is his first film as a director.
There were Yang Liu, Gao Fei, Lao Tian, Zhang Nan, Shi Feng, and Zhanqi Leiden in the conference room.
"If there are no problems, just submit it for review." Qi Hao paused, then continued: "I want this movie to win an award. Do you have any suggestions?"
"I have confirmed with Mr. Zhang Meng, and his suggestion is to screen it at the Tokyo International Film Festival or Venice International Film Festival."
Yang Liu adjusted her glasses and reported her work.
She and Gao Fei are currently mainly following up on various projects, such as "The Piano", which is about to be submitted for review, "The Journey", which has been reviewed, and "Let's See", which is preparing to be released.
Even "A Little Thing About First Love" that is currently being prepared is all within their scope of work.
When the movie enters the promotion period, it falls within Shi Feng's scope of work.
"I remember one is in September and the other is in October. It's too late." Qi Hao was not satisfied.
"Yes, it's March now, and it's only half a year until September."
Yang Liu didn't understand why Qi Hao was so anxious. The film cycle often lasted more than one or two years.
Some directors are very grinding and it may take several years.
"It's too late. Is there anyone earlier?"
Qi Hao wants the movie to be released a little earlier.
This will give you a better chance of winning the Best New Director award.
Most importantly, he remembered that there was no such thing as a Newcomer Award at the Tokyo International Film Festival.
Although the Venice International Film Festival has the Best Newcomer/Debut Film Award, no Chinese has ever won this award since the ceremony was founded in 1932.
Qi Hao even dared to bet on the Golden Lion Award, after all, seven Chinese had already won it.
But he didn’t have the guts to bet on this newcomer award.
What if you can't get it?
It was already September at that time. Is it possible that I have to wait until the next year to get it?
According to Qi Hao's plan, he must complete the main mission before October 29 this year to facilitate the release of new missions by the system.
A thousand birds in the forest is worse than a bird in the hand!
Therefore, when chasing awards for this movie, don’t ask for cost-effectiveness. The most important thing is to get it quickly.
It is not easy to win the Best Newcomer Award at overseas film festivals.
Because the Best Newcomer Award is mostly a "consolation prize" used to encourage young local directors.
If you have the ability, they will give you a big prize.
Even if it's not the first prize, it can still be the Jury Prize or Best Director, Best Actor or Best Actress. If you don't have the ability, then just go for it. There's no need to arrange a so-called consolation prize for you.
People won't tolerate you either.
In order to win the award, Qi Hao's request for "The Piano of Steel" is to release it as soon as possible.
It will definitely be too late for the Beijing University Student Film Festival. After it is submitted for review, it will have to go to theaters to schedule.
There is no Changchun Film Festival this year, but at the 12th Shanghai International Film Festival in June and the 18th China Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival in September, as long as one of them can win the Best New Director, Qi Hao will have accomplished his mission.
Of course, if you can get the New Music Award, that’s fine too.
The 16th Oriental Billboard held in Shanghai in March had a Newcomer Award, and it was divided into gold, silver and bronze awards for newcomers.
If you can get this award, then the mission will be guaranteed. "If you want to release it earlier, then release it in June, and "We'll See" in May, so that there is no conflict between the two."
Yang Liu and Gao Fei looked at each other.
Obviously, although Gao Fei is the boss of Feiyang Media, the person who really calls the shots is Qi Hao.
It was impossible for Gao Fei to veto Qi Hao over such a trivial matter.
"Do you mean to premiere at the Shanghai International Film Festival?" Qi Hao remembered that June was the Shanghai International Film Festival.
Putting aside those pheasant awards, there are not many awards that can be arranged in the country.
"I don't recommend it...this will cause the film's announcement to be affected by too many film festivals. Even if it does not premiere at a film festival, it will not affect the awards." Yang Liu shook his head and said.
"The Shanghai International Film Festival just doesn't care about foreign films. It's impossible for them to give you an award, but it's possible for them to win the Film Channel Media Award for their second-tier unit."
James Lydon was not polite at all, he almost said that Shanghai International Film Co., Ltd. was flirtatious.
"This kind of stupid thing that the country doesn't understand yet and just wants to play with the international market will not be able to develop in another ten years."
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
This time, Lao Tian agreed with James Layden’s words.
He didn't understand why Qi Hao wanted to win an award for "The Piano of Steel". In the past, Qi Hao was not very enthusiastic about winning awards.
There is a high probability that he will get sick again.
"That's it, it will be released in early June, win domestic awards first, and then go to the Tokyo International Film Festival or other international awards to try."
Qi Hao combined everyone's opinions and made a final decision.
"The other is "A Little Thing About First Love". The planned start date is April, but there is a big problem with the script."
Yang Liu reported the second thing, Gao Fei had already begun to take a nap next to her.
No way, this time should be boss Xiao Gao's nap time. Qi Hao came to meet with someone after having a full meal, disturbing his rest.
"What's the problem?" Qi Hao read the script.
He feels that this script is very mature and is a rare good script.
Even if they don't make much money from the auction, given Qi Hao and An Feng's national standards, they will most likely not lose money.
Well, even if you lose money, you won’t lose much.
After all, Anfeng will bear half of the cost.
"The screenwriter team we hired adapted the script to a certain extent in a localized way, but they thought the ending of the movie was a bit cliché."
Yang Liu is currently studying and working at the same time.
However, her academic qualifications are not very good, there are too many things to learn, and she does not understand many things.
Fortunately, her work attitude was very good. She recorded all the suggestions from the screenwriter team and showed them directly to Qi Hao.
“The whole movie is very cliché, and it’s not just the ending that is cliché.”
Qi Hao laughed, took it and looked at the suggestions from the screenwriting team, and then he frowned.
The screenwriters found in China think:
In a sense, the reason why first love is worth remembering is because we cannot love it, and it is because of regret.
The best time in love is when it's ambiguous.
When we are truly together, many feelings will disappear.
Sometimes, the meeting and falling in love between two people may not necessarily have a happy ending. Sometimes, missing it may be their best choice.
Therefore, the screenwriters suggested that the final ending of the movie, in which Xiao Shui and A Liang reunite and finally get together, would destroy the beauty of the movie.
Tragedy is often more powerful than comedy, and it can penetrate the delusion of the soul and make people reflect on themselves.
Just like the death of Fairy Zixia at the end of "Journey to the West: The Marriage of the Monkey King", it is precisely because of this tragedy and imperfection that people can cherish the existing beauty and think about the direction that life should take.
Human suffering is absolute, but happiness is relative.
"What do you think?" Qi Hao looked at it and continued to solicit everyone's opinions.
As far as he is concerned, it doesn't matter whether it ends in comedy or tragedy.
Anyway, his mission as the male lead has been completed.
The current expectation for this movie is to help him consolidate his fans, so as not to be frustrated by his behavior of acting ugly and playing a villain.
If you abuse fans, you will abuse fans, and occasionally give you a piece of candy.
"Tengu", "The Wind" and "We'll See" are examples of abusive fans, while "Sword of Sword 3" and "A Little Thing About First Love" are considered solid fans.
As for "People on the Road", Qi Hao couldn't figure out what it was.
"I...I don't know either." Yang Liu told the truth.
"Of course I like a happy ending. Those screenwriters are too young, so the audience will definitely like a happy ending."
Gao Fei is in high spirits, she doesn't like to watch tragedies.
After seeing the tragedy, she always wanted to catch the director and bury him.
"I think it's better to look at the overall style of the script. If it suits a happy ending, it should have a happy ending. There is no need to have a tragic ending. If tragedy is better, there is no need to keep them together."
Shi Feng, who is responsible for company operations and movie marketing, also expressed his opinions.
"In fact, many good endings do not make it obvious whether they are tragedies or comedies. They just feel that things can only be like this. This is the most satisfactory and comfortable ending. Some characters can only die, such as "The Killer Isn't Too Cold" "; Some things can only disappear, such as "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest," but some things can actually be put to death, such as "The Shawshank Redemption."
Lao Tian has been in the industry for many years and has his own ideas about movies.
"Like the Forest of Fireflies, Jin disappeared, but it gave people a very complete and comfortable feeling."
Jenky Leyden surprisingly didn't mock anything.
"If you said it, you didn't say it..."
