In a lecture hall of 400 people at Beijing University of Communication and Communication, students from various colleges and majors sat almost all of the 400 seats at 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
Today, the crew of "Frequency of Life and Death" will come to Communication University and have a meeting.
Although Communication University is mainly in the field of information and communication, many students here are engaged in film and television work every year.
Similarly, Communication University also has acting and directing majors.
"Frequency of Life and Death", as the biggest dark horse of the year and one of the most watched movies this year, came to the school to participate in the event, and the students were still very excited.
"Alas, why haven't you come yet, it's almost time. β
"Why are so many people coming? I don't know this formation, I still think Liu Dehua is here. β
"I don't know if Li Qian is really handsome, is there one meter eight. β
"What is so good about Li Qian, which of our brothers is not more handsome than him!"
"Cut, handsome and so on, men's talent is the most important. β
"That's right, people made such a good movie as "Frequency of Life and Death" at the age of 23, and the family affection in the movie is so touching!"
"I think Zhang Hanyu is handsome, is it too warm, it seems that there is such an uncle who spoils me!"
"What kind of vision do you have, "Frequency of Life and Death" is much worse than "Butterfly Effect" of the same type, it is just an ordinary commercial movie, and adding a little sensational stuff will fool you. β
"You're sour, if you have the ability, you can shoot one too?"
......
As one of the best art schools in the country, although there are many well-known alumni, there are also many celebrities who come to the school to give speeches or something.
However, the film and television industry is an industry closer to them after all, and every time there is a big star or director, they are always so enthusiastic.
"The Frequency of Life and Death" won nearly 100 million box office, and the quality and reputation of the movie itself are very good, and most of the students on the scene have seen it, so they are all very excited.
What's more, Li Qian, the director, is only 24 years old, and he is the same age as them, and there is no generation gap.
When it comes to peers who have achieved great success, there are usually two types of perceptions.
Either envy, adoration, or jealousy.
Soon the host of the school radio station took to the stage.
"It's coming, it's coming. β
"I've been waiting for a long time, and I knew it would be late. β
"I want to see how powerful this Li Qian is, and how long he can last on the stage of the middle transmission!"
"Yes, we can't lose the tradition of the Middle Legacy. β
.......
casually said a few opening remarks, and the host introduced Li Qian and others to the entrance.
"Let's welcome Li Qian, the director of the movie "Frequency of Life and Death", and several actors!"
"Bang Bang Bang ....."
Accompanied by the applause of the students, Li Qian took Zhang Hanyu and them to the stage.
"Hello students, I'm Li Qian. β
Looking at these young faces who were about the same age as himself in the audience, Li Qian actually felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy.
They are all the same age, and they are all close to each other.
"Hello everyone, I am actor Zhang Hanyu, and I am also the father in the movie "Frequency of Life and Death". β
"Hello everyone, I'm Deng Chao, playing my son in "Frequency of Life and Death". β
"I'm Yuan Quan...."
"I'm Wang Qianyuan..."
Today, Li Qian brought the four of them here, and they are also the leading actors in the movie.
After saying hello, the hosts exchanged a wave of business as usual.
Although he is only a college student, the art of broadcasting and hosting is the trump card major of China Transmission, and he has produced many CCTV hosts, and this student's hosting skills are no longer inferior to the hosts of ordinary provincial TV stations.
Li Qian also praised the Communication University, but the time was limited, so he got to the point.
"Director Li, as a peer of the same age as you, in fact, we are all very curious, what can we do to be like you, you have achieved such a great success at the age of 24, your movie has won more than 80 million box office for the first time on the big screen, and it may break through the 100 million yuan mark. β
Sure enough, any young person, when listening to the speeches of celebrities and rich people, most wants to listen to their experiences and ways of success, hoping to learn something from them to help them succeed.
Li Qian thought for a while and said, "Actually, it's very simple to say, as soon as I graduated from university, I opened a photography studio in Donghua City, and I was lucky enough to make some money, and then I took these tens of thousands of dollars to shoot the first "Sniper Phone Booth" of the Internet University. β
"I was also lucky that the box office was not bad, and then I filmed the second "Jaws", relying on the accumulation of two Internet universities, I began to try to hit the big screen, and there was this "Frequency of Life and Death", thanks to everyone's love, I have today's results. β
Other people's speeches talk about chicken soup, but Li Qian doesn't talk about chicken soup, which tells them the specific methods of success, and it is accurate to the specific steps.
However, if you have the method, how can you do it.....
"Pretend!"
The students in the audience secretly scolded themselves, I still want you to say, I even know how to build a nuclear bomb, but you can make me a look!
Li Qian smiled and said, "Of course, in this process, there is much more to be done. β
"Personally, I like to set a goal, and a big goal is not easy to accomplish, so I divide it into small goals and solve them one by one. β
"For example, if I plan to make a theatrical movie, but I'm a newcomer who has just left school, even if I take the script and go to the film and television company, 99% of the time I will be rejected. β
"So, without any external force to help, I want to earn the cost of a movie on my own. β
At that time, the Internet University had just become popular, and I had tens of thousands of yuan in my hands, so I thought about filming the Internet University to see if I could make some money and earn the cost of making cinema movies. β
"Making theatrical movies is a big goal, and making a big movie is a small goal leading to a big goal, and this small goal is to make at least 3 million through the Internet, and the production cost of a small-budget movie. β
Earn three million through the Internet, and the goal is small....
It's not nonsense, what's the difference from what I just said, when three million is so easy to earn.
"Then Director Li, how can I make three million dollars through a network?"
was interrupted, Li Qian was not angry, and continued, "If the small target is dismantled again, what does the network need if it wants to sell for money?"
Good ideas, excellent actors, platform promotion, and a qualified behind-the-scenes team are needed. β
"Therefore, I wrote the script of "Sniper Phone Booth", and found Lei Jiayin from the Modu Drama Art Center to play the leading role, the photographer in the behind-the-scenes team is from Jiangsu and Zhejiang Film Studio, and my executive director and assistant director are also professionals, and when negotiating with the platform, I also won the highest level of A signing share, the higher the signing level, the more attention the platform will pay attention to and give better promotion resources. β
"Writing scripts, finding actors, finding behind-the-scenes teams, and striving for the promotion of the platform are all phased goals, and these problems are overcome one by one. β
"If a small problem is overcome, it is equivalent to achieving a small goal, and when a small goal is solved, the big goal is naturally in front of you. β
"So how do you write a good script, and how do you ensure that the script will sell well?"
"This can also be dismantled into small problems, what type of Internet University is more popular and has a wide audience, choose a type from it, add some creativity, and a good Internet University script will come out, and good creativity depends on whether you have a good brain. β
This.....
There was no silence below.
Is it difficult to ask again how to have a good brain?
Who's going to admit it, I can't do it.
Backwards, they all have a good brain, and a good brain can write a good script.
There are good actors in various troupes, and there are a lot of qualified behind-the-scenes teams in Hengdian, so that good movies can be made.
If you have a good movie, you can get better promotion resources.
Good movies + better promotion resources can be a big hit at the box office.
If the box office is a big hit, there will be money to make theatrical movies.
Hey?
It's really that simple, just have a good brain!
The students in the audience thought about it back and forth twice, and it was really like this, it was as simple as that.
But something seems to be wrong?
Looking at some of the students in the audience who were in thought, Li Qian nodded with satisfaction.
However, the four actors next to them couldn't help laughing, and even wanted to laugh.
If you say that, then any industry can be pushed like this, and success is too simple.
However, most people are not so easily fooled.
I just didn't think about how to ask for a while.
There are two major traditions in the transmission, one of which is the coaxing of the stage.
There is a saying among the colleges and universities in Beijing: If you can stand on the stage of the small hall of the Chinese transmission for one minute, then you can stand in the Great Hall of the People for an hour!
Although it is a bit exaggerated, the poisonous tongue of the students in the middle transmission can be seen, and people with average psychological quality are easily made unable to get off the stage by them on stage.
There was a campus singer competition, there was a neon international student participating in the competition, at the beginning a few people in the audience sang "the big knife to the devil's head", sang a few words and found that there were too few people, and finally almost the audience stood up and sang the national anthem, drowning out the voice of the international student.
There was a little girl who sang "I'm going to marry you tomorrow", and as a result, everyone at the bottom sang loudly in the tune of the wedding march "Silly B, get married, one person makes money and two people spend ....."
The tradition can't be lost, and soon, another boy looked at Li Qian with some admiration.
"Hello Director Li, we all like your previous three movies. β
Li Qian nodded and smiled, "Thank you." β
However, a group of people in the audience shouted, "You really believe it!"
What the hell am I ......
"Hello Director Li, I think the plot of "Frequency of Life and Death" is too clichΓ©, and the ending also makes the whole movie a mediocre work, completely wasting this theme, losing the meaning of discussing life and destiny, and completely becoming a fantasy taken for granted, too idealistic. β
Li Qian nodded, "This classmate is right. β
The students in the audience were a little surprised, Li Qian was so humble, so easy to admit his shortcomings.
It seems that the news really can't be believed, if you don't see me very much, you really think it's the kind of person who is arrogant.
Sure enough, people are as their name suggests, modest.
However, Li Qian continued, ""The Frequency of Life and Death" is actually a gimmick that connects time and space, telling a clichΓ© story of family affection, and I don't talk about life and destiny in this movie. β
"What I want to show is the relationship between father and son, and the idea of changing oneself and the future of one's family through struggle and hard work, although in reality hard work may not be rewarding. β
.....
I said that my movie was very clichΓ©, which made my classmates not know how to take it.
Now which director doesn't open his mouth and close his mouth to talk about art, even if Ma Xiaogang used to shoot those Chinese New Year comedies, he would say that it was to show the joys, sorrows and sorrows of some little people and people on the edge of the city, and reflect the living situation of ordinary people.
Anyway, the old paper is also about art and pursuit.
When I came to Li Qian, I didn't talk about art, and I didn't talk about the deeper meaning of the movie.
"Don't Director Li feel that he is too utilitarian? ClichΓ© movies have no cultural connotation!"
"I just want to shoot stories that most viewers like to see, and family reunion against all odds is one of them. β
Li Qian smiled and said, "If this is utilitarian, then someone asked me just now, how can I make 3 million through an online university, and I want to earn millions when I open my mouth, is it considered utilitarian for you, why doesn't anyone ask me how to make a movie with more connotation?"
......
It's quite interesting to chat with these peers, anyway, Li Qian neither sets up an archway, nor does he want to maintain the image of a successful person and a senior.
If it weren't for Li Qian on stage, they would not be so peaceful in their words, then Li Qian would have scolded people.
It's rare to have such a relaxed activity, these people are much more difficult to deal with than the audience during the roadshow, those movie lovers have read countless films, and the amount of knowledge is still rich, and even sometimes there are some big guys hidden, and sometimes it is difficult to parry and can only deal with it casually.
And when he left, many people still had some regrets, so Li Qian just retreated from the auditorium of the middle transmission.
However, there were still many students who came to ask for autographs, and then the crew also took photos with them.
In the following time, Li Qian took the crew to participate in an interview with Xinlang, which basically ended the promotion of "Frequency of Life and Death".
And the screening of the film has also come to an end.
On January 28, in the past week, "Frequency of Life and Death" got 8.5 million box office, and the total box office in 29 days of release was as high as 96.1 million.
On February 5th, in the past eight days, "Frequency of Life and Death" will get 4 million box office, with a total box office of 100.1 million yuan, officially breaking through the 100 million yuan mark.
After 37 days of release, spanning 12, 1, and 2 March, "Frequency of Life and Death" finally broke 100 million.
And Li Qian was also successfully promoted to the director of the 100 million yuan club!
