Chapter 978: Can I accept it? Is it suitable?
"The imported science fiction blockbuster "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice", produced by Warner Pictures, held its Asian premiere ceremony in Beijing this morning;< br>
Director Zack Snyder appeared in the capital with Batman Ben Affleck, Superman Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Amy Adams and other Hollywood celebrities
Many domestic filmmakers, actors, stars, and media people attended the premiere ceremony; the scale of the red carpet was comparable to the film festival awards ceremony..."
Like the previous "Interstellar", Warner will The Asian premiere of "Batman v Superman" was also the only premiere promotion in Asia and was held in China.
Even if Warner arranged this deliberately and wanted to please the domestic media, market and audience, it still has to praise: others have a correct attitude.
In contrast, it is not like some groups who always spoil the pot, gossip, and sit on the wall... I am not talking about the small areas in Hong Kong and Taiwan. Well, they are all traitors!
Director Lin Da was not prepared to go there because he was addicted to sleeping in. He also told Yue Jun yesterday that he would attend the event on behalf of Lin Nan himself and the company;
Waiting for Lin Nan slept until he woke up naturally. When he got up to check the news, he was shocked to find that, my goodness, the Asian premiere of the movie was really being held as a small awards ceremony!
Because many female celebrities walk on the red carpet wearing dresses, it can be said that they have good intentions.
Well, that includes Jing Tian. After all, she will join the crew of "Pacific Rim 2" later, so it is necessary to have a good relationship with Warner.
"Starring Nicholas Tse, Tang Yan, Zheng Yonghe, and Bai Bing, with a friendly appearance by Ge You! Investment of 300 million Hong Kong dollars, "The Battle of the God of Cookery"?"
Lin Nan saw the movie on Hong Kong Island News, Ying Huang is praising his son Nicholas Tse again.
"Is it turned on? Tangtang mentioned this movie to me yesterday morning. She flew to Hong Kong Island yesterday afternoon."
Liu Yifei walked from the kitchen carrying hot milk It turns out that her microwave oven is very good - in other words, her cooking skills have basically not improved over the years.
"Well, we just started shooting this morning, in Guangzhou. The producer Huo Wenxi was interviewed by the media and said that he would fly to Europe and Australia for filming later.
I really can't understand them. It's so difficult to make such a movie. How sure are you of getting back your money and making a profit? "Do you really think it's Zhou Xingchi's "The God of Cookery"!"
It's not Lin Nan complaining, but Nicholas Tse has already told the film industry with facts that he really can't afford the box office. ; Acting cool and doing food variety shows are okay, but forget about the box office.
"You are really worried about Yinghuang's director Yang being willing to invest in the production. You must be mentally prepared. Come on, this is yours. Drink more and supplement protein..."
< br>Liu Yifei smiled and handed a large glass of milk to Lin Nan, while keeping the missing glass for herself.
Since Liu Xiaoli returned to her hometown years ago, Liu Yifei and Lin Nan's breakfast time has become more and more casual; no, they don't start eating breakfast until after nine o'clock or almost ten o'clock!
Director Lin Da glanced at Liu Qianqian who was looking at him with a smile. He always felt that there was a trace of evil intention on her delicate face. What could she do to make up for it?
......
The audition and casting scene for "The Founding of an Army" is not a big one; but when the scene is big, some things are not easy to keep secret.
As noon approached, rumors began to spread around the industry that a certain idol artist had caused a dispute between the director, producer and others at the audition in the morning.
Liu Weiqiang wanted to appoint someone on the spot, but Huang Jianxin strongly opposed it. The two even went to tit-for-tat and refused to give in, leaving many staff members in a dead silence and not daring to interrupt;
In the end, Liu Weiqiang, as the director, directly drove himself power, he did not hesitate to offend the producer Huang Jianxin, so that he could retain the artists who auditioned.
And Ou Hao, an idol star who debuted in the talent show, got the core role - Ye Ting amidst the "dissatisfaction" of many professional actors!
For the first time, he entered the vision of the upper echelons of the film industry - he was ambitious.
“Lao Han didn’t go there this morning and complained to me, saying: Let them go. To put it bluntly, he is just a chief planner and art director, and his work has been done. Finished.
Listen, has Lao Han given up? I heard him say that when we were discussing the casting of idol stars as leading actors at China Film Group that day, Uncle La also implicitly mentioned him and me, Uncle Jian Xin... Uncle La supported director Liu Weiqiang. "
"What did you order? What did you order? "Lin Nan asked curiously.
"The meaning of that sentence seems to be: He is the chairman of China Film Group Corporation? ! "Han Jianu spread her hands, and then she couldn't hold back her laughter.
Well, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei couldn't help laughing too.
Sometimes people in power are like this. It doesn't matter whether he is right or wrong, what matters most is that what he said works.
"Okay, let's talk about your business. You invited us out for coffee out of nowhere?"
Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at Han Jianu and urged with a smile.
“We haven’t seen each other since years ago. Let’s get together with you two.
Hmm, okay, it’s a little something...”
< br>Well, the first sentence is still a tough talk, but the second sentence is soft.
I saw Han Jia Nu looking at Lin Nan: "Brother Lin, as you know, I am from the directing department, and I just audited the literature department. It is my first time to write a more delicate and serious script, and I am a little stuck in some places. Got it..."
"Tell me, what problem are you stuck on?" Lin Nan was amused. This is a sign of inexperience.
“I really want to write about that particularly heavy, sad, suffocating, struggling, depressing feeling and human nature, but I always feel that I can’t find the focus, and I can’t keep exerting my strength... Well, I just can’t sustain it. Use force and raise the atmosphere..."
Liu Yifei bumped Lin Nan with her elbow and teased: "It's up to you." Director Lin immediately understood the problem. He looked at classmate Xiao Han, who looked eager to learn, and said:
"My first script, when I look back on it now, is also very clumsy.
The weakness of a novice is like this, you can't cut it, you are too straightforward. If you are writing about suffering, For a drama like this, the story should start from the simplest and smallest things; don’t think about how to pile up rhetoric or directly talk about the heavy and depressing environment and fate. This kind of thinking is wrong, or it is half the result with twice the result. .
You have to change your perspective: Ordinaryness is the most real. The fate of each little person, the difficult and depressing things, you only need to describe these 'small things' truly and simply. Just tell it, show it, and accumulate it. The atmosphere and weight of the entire script will naturally add up and change.
I suggest you go back and watch the award-winning movie "On the Beach" several times. Manchester", for reference... This movie is like this. It does not directly describe despair, but the despair is there, making people depressed to the point of suffocation... If a few times are not enough, then dozens of times..."
"I don't even want to watch it a second time. How many times or dozens of times do you want her to watch it? If she is depressed, Director Han must not fight against you?"
Liu Yifei punched Lin Nan and made everyone laugh in anger.
"That seems to be the reason."
Lin Nan held Liu Yifei's hand and smiled belatedly, "Manchester by the Sea" is really not suitable to watch too much.
But at this moment, Han Jia Nu had a "taught" expression. She seemed to be really inspired by Lin Nan and stared at Lin Nan and Liu Yifei excitedly:
"Brother Lin, I am very sure at this moment that the advice you gave me is absolutely correct. I just need to focus on the details and tell the stories of individual characters, and be sincere.
Because I remembered the report that Lao Han wrote at home before, the Chinese Dream is the gathering, sublimation and qualitative transformation of the 'small dreams' of all individual masses into the 'big dream'. Only in this way can... the great rejuvenation..."
At this moment, both Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were confused. Good guy, he is indeed from a family within the system. Can these things be linked together?
"At the earliest, June, before the end of summer vacation at the latest. I will definitely be able to polish the script..."
After a long time, Han Jianu vowed to leave a sentence to Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, and then without waiting for their reaction, she picked up her bag and ran " "...the voice came from far away. She wanted to go home to correct the manuscript and rewrite it.
"Sissi, she, she hasn't paid the bill yet, has she? "Lin Nan asked with confirmation.
"It seems that I didn't buy it!"
Liu Yifei looked at the coffee, cakes and desserts on the table and smiled silently, "This guy is obviously her treat."
... ...
"According to information on the official website of the Film Bureau: After five years of polishing, the script of the costume, suspense, and fantasy film "The Legend of the Demon Cat", adapted from "Kukai the Great Tang Ghost Banquet", has officially passed the review... Producers can obtain a filming permit with a red-headed document..."
"Shengkai Pictures and producer Chen Hong announced that the film "The Legend of the Demon Cat" will start auditions for the film and television industry from now on; audition channels For: invitation system, recommendation system. ”
"According to insiders in the industry: The film "The Legend of the Demon Cat" is produced by many Chinese and foreign film and television giants such as Xinli, Shengkai Pictures, Yinghuang Film, Kadokawa Pictures Co., Ltd., and has confirmed overseas distribution..."
"Xiangyang Tangcheng Film and Television Base officially issued an announcement: Tangcheng Film and Television Base has been waiting for director Chen Kaige and the crew of "The Legend of the Demon Cat" for 6 years. We look forward to smooth preparations for the film and starting production as soon as possible..."
Early on the 16th, Countless actors and entertainers in the entire film and television industry were all attracted by the online movie information about "The Legend of the Demon Cat".
Director Chen Da has been preparing a huge movie for several years, and he attaches great importance to it, and the producer lineup is also very strong... There is no doubt that this is another top-notch cake;
But the casting seems to be different. It is very strict and there are only two channels: invitation and recommendation.
While countless actors in the industry have green eyes and are eagerly preparing to "compete", Liu Yifei and Lin Nan are not idle either.
People from Shengkai Pictures sent the script over early in the morning, along with Chen Hong’s instructions for Lin Nan to give her opinions.
"Give me advice? Do you mean it as if Director Chen can listen to me if I give advice?
He is exactly the same as Jiang Wen, except that one is so reserved and arrogant that he never accepts it. The opinions of outsiders; and the other is stubborn and arrogant!"
Hearing Lin Nan say this, Liu Yifei's yawning expression turned into a smile.
"Look, the news reports outside are still inaccurate! There is only one screenwriter mentioned in the news reports, and it is Wang Huiling who participated in the screenwriting work of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Lust, Caution", "Red Cliff", and "Tai Ping Wheel" . But the screenwriter column on the script also has Director Chen’s name!”
Lin Nan pointed at Chen Kaige’s name and complained to Liu Yifei. Chen Kaige is proud. He will never put his name to work that he has not done.
Chen Hong seemed to have said before that a professional team was working on the script, but looking at the situation now, there is a high probability that Director Chen couldn't hold back and got involved;
But the main body of the script should be It was Wang Huiling who did it, because Chen Kaige’s name was signed at the end!
“Producer Chen said, I can choose whatever I want. But the important roles are only those two... Let’s read the script first.”
Liu Yifei said quite seriously, she had to take someone's kind invitation seriously, right?
"Let's read it first. After reading it, we'll talk about it later. Whether you can take it, whether it's suitable..."
Lin Nan nodded. If a script is shot by different directors, the finished film will be completely different. He is also very interested in the script of "The Legend of the Demon Cat".
Moreover, no one can guarantee whether Director Chen will change the script later while filming. Therefore, the draft that has just been reviewed is very "precious" .
