"What, aren't you optimistic?"

Zhou Mu's subtle demeanor made Cui Ji notice, and he was puzzled: "This IP should have the value of in-depth mining." ”

"Ahem!"

Zhou Mu hesitated: "How are you going to dig?"

"Of course it'......"

Cui Ji pondered seriously, "Strengthen the background design of teachers and children, engage in more interaction, and render the difficulties of the rural teaching environment." On the other hand, the interstellar war between silicon-based life and carbon-based life can also be choreographed. ”

"All in all, the two lines cross and weave. ”

Cui Ji compared, "Eventually, they converged to form the climax of the film, highlighting the greatness of the profession of rural teachers." ”

“......”

Zhou Mu was not confident, "Are you sure there is really a market for shooting like this?"

"Why not?" said Cui Ji, "the short film is such a tone, and everyone has received rave reviews." ”

"You don't think, it's because of ......"

Zhou Mu raised his eyebrows and said: "Watch the short film casually, doesn't it cost money?"

No matter what the world, the White Female Voter will always be in the majority.

"Huh?"

Cui Ji was stunned, "What the hell, are you so unconfident in this story?"

"Yes. ”

Zhou Mu nodded and admitted, "This story is only suitable for short films, not for feature films." You must know that a movie must have at least 90 minutes in weight, and the story of a rural teacher has so much content, it is difficult to irrigate. ”

"What watering. ”

Cui Ji said angrily: "Didn't I just say, you can work on the two lines and pave the way a little......"

"It's useless. ”

Yu Nian spoke, "Everyone knows the climax and ending of the story. No matter how the increased plot length is laid, it is inseparable from this big framework. If this is suspense, the biggest selling point is to give it a spoiler and lose its value. ”

"What a suspense. ”

Cui Ji emphasized, "The selling point of this movie is that it is a gorgeous and exciting big scene, a grand interstellar war, destroying galaxies to create a separation zone, what a great idea." In it, interspersed with the hard work of rural teachers, the difficulty of teaching is explained. ”

"Under the life and death, there is warmth and human care. ”

Cui Ji sighed and said as if intoxicated: "Don't you think that this is a story that can touch the soul?"

"What about balance?"

Yu Nian was very cold, "How do you control the weight of the two lines, so that they become balanced without deviating from the main line." ”

"You must know that if there is no unified style in the multi-line narrative mode, it is easy for the audience to have a sense of separation and go directly to the play. ”

Yu Nian nodded: "The cool interstellar wars and the ordinary life of the rural teacher, no matter how you look at it, how are you going to shoot it?"

"Of course it'......"

Cui Ji suddenly fell silent.

He just wanted to say, just like the short film, let's have a memory kill. But he woke up in time, and the memories of the short film were only two or three minutes, which was easy to control.

But in the movie, you can't remember an hour.

Time does not allow it and does not say, purely from the lens language of the movie, such a shooting method is undoubtedly very low-end.

If it is a normal narrative, then the rural teacher and the interstellar war are really incompatible.

The style of painting is completely different.

How can you guarantee that everyone won't be able to watch the play?

After thinking for a moment, he wilted and frowned, "It's a pity that such a good story is not made into a movie." ”

This sentence was uttered by another person shortly after.

Hotel, suite, living room.

Zhou Mu and the others came back and didn't sit down.

There was a doorbell outside, and everyone thought it was room service. A man walked over, opened the door and said, "Thank you, we don't ...... Ahh

The crowd listened and looked back.

At this time, a group of people stood at the door, smiling.

"Ahh

Zhou Mu was stunned, and recognized the middle-aged man who was the one who congratulated him backstage at the MG Award. It was only a few hours apart, and I came to the door in the middle of the night.

Can't wait?

"Excuse me!"

The middle-aged man stood at the door and said with a smile: "There is something to discuss, I want to discuss it with a few people, I wonder if you are free?"

The official boss came to the door, even if he was not available, he didn't dare to refuse. Zhou Mu and Yu Nian glanced at each other, and immediately put on a posture to welcome guests.

Boil water and make tea, a busy time.

The middle-aged man sat on the sofa with a very straight waist.

He said meaningfully: "By the way, congratulations again on your award. As a filmmaker, there should be more such meaningful short films. ”

“...... Thank you!"

Zhou Mu's inspiration flashed, and he suddenly had a little understanding. He suspects that the reason why this award was not hacked by Yang Fan may be because it is supported by the government. The official statement can naturally easily crush the influence of an industry tycoon like Yang Fan.

"This is a good theme, are you interested in turning it into a movie?" the middle-aged man continued: "It's a pity that such a good story is not made into a movie." ”

"Huh!"

Everyone was stunned and looked at Cui Ji.

Is it easy to understand the heart?

Cui Ji was very encouraged and said with some excitement: "Look at it, I just said, this short film will be made into a movie, and there must be a market." ”

Zhou Mu and Yu Nian did not move.

There is a market, there must be a market, but how big the market is is is worth speculating.

If the film is required by the special effects standard of a short film, then the cost of the film will definitely cost hundreds of millions of dollars. With so much money, if there is only a few hundred million box office, wouldn't it be a loss?

The risk is too great to be worth it.

The middle-aged man was interested, "Screenwriter Cui, do you have any ideas?"

"Yes. ”

Cui Ji immediately said: "I thought about expanding the short film, but the two of them were not optimistic. ”

"Huh?"

The middle-aged man was stunned, "Why?"

"The style doesn't match, it's not easy to force integration. ”

Zhou Mu explained seriously, "In the short film, the teacher's role is only two or three minutes, and the children's emotions can be conveyed in the form of memories. Let everyone see the heartwarming and moving. ”

"But in a feature film, this line has to be at least fifty minutes long. ”

Zhou Mu spread his hands and said helplessly: "If you don't have enough materials, if you fill it hard, it will look fake." If you shoot more interstellar and less teacher plots, the plot will be thin again. ”

"So these two lines, taken out separately, can make a movie. It's just put together, but it's not easy to arrange. ”

Zhou Mu smiled bitterly: "That's why I made a short film." ”

“...... Can't you do both?"

The middle-aged man did not give up, "I think this theme is very positive." If it is made into a movie and released, it will definitely touch more people. ”

Short films are far less influential than feature films. Many classic short films are also only paid attention to by a small number of people, and most people choose to ignore them.

"Country Teacher" can be popular, in addition to the wonderful content, to a large extent, it also borrows Zhou Mu's big star halo.

The star's own traffic led to the short film, which attracted strong attention.

"Difficult!"

Zhou Mu shook his head, "The risk is too great." ”

“......”

The middle-aged man was silent for a moment before he spoke: "What if...... I said that if "The Country Teacher" is adapted into a movie, it can be promoted as a tribute film...... Do you still think this project will fail?"

"Ah???h

Everyone was taken aback and quite surprised.

Cui Ji was even more upright, and said in surprise: "No, a few months have passed, and the matter of the gift film has not been implemented?"

"Wait, no......"

Cui Ji blinked, "The National Day has passed, I remember that two tribute films were released at that time, and I also bought tickets to watch it, the plot is good." ”

Zhou Mu and Yu Nian nodded unconsciously.

So they just wondered why the middle-aged man came to the door again.

The middle-aged man was stunned, and then smiled, "Maybe I didn't make it clear, so you have a misunderstanding, the gift film I am talking about is not a National Day gift film." ”

"It's not a National Day, what else can it ......"

At this moment, it was the turn of others to be confused and inexplicable.

The middle-aged man said softly: "The centennial celebration of the alliance, everyone is celebrating activities, and our film industry can't lag behind." ”

“！！！”

In an instant, Zhou Mu and the others suddenly realized. It's no wonder that their Zhengzhi sensitivity is too low, the main thing is that there is no rumor about this matter at all.

In other words, the insiders are playing dumb and covering the news tightly. If it weren't for the middle-aged people, it is estimated that it would be a long time before they could receive the news.

"So during this time, we have been searching for themes and looking for directors. ”

The middle-aged man said that he didn't mind explaining in more detail, "But many directors have provided us with a plan...... Passable. ”

Or rather, the plan they gave, that's the standard essay answer. ”

The middle-aged man shook his head slightly, "We have filmed a lot of this fixed answer before, but unfortunately there is little response and there is no meaning." ”

"So...... I think we should change. But some people's minds are more ...... Conservative, didn't understand my thoughts. ”

He sighed and smiled, "But I understand them, after all, some people are content with the status quo and feel that it is risky to change. ”

"Of course, there is another possibility, that is, some people have solidified their thinking, lost the ability to innovate, dare not face risks, and just want to get by. ”

The middle-aged man's gaze swept over Zhou Mu and Yu Nian, "Unlike young people, they are active in thinking and more creative." ”

Hiss!

Zhou Mu's heart moved, he thought of the news revealed by the head of the department when he was in Beijing Film, Yang Fan wanted to make a tribute film, but he fell out with the relevant departments.

Is this really a fallout?

In fact, it is not a falling out, but a unilateral refusal of the relevant departments?

Thinking about it again, Yang Fan got He Ying's script, and he hasn't heard of the news of the start of filming until now. Does this mean that Yang Fan has not completely given up on this gift film project......

Maybe it's not just Yang Fan.

There are also other insiders who are eyeing the project.

After all, this project is too tempting. The National Day gift film can mobilize a lot of resources, not to mention the alliance gift film.

Take control of this project, and you don't have to expect it.

But the benefits of participating and getting part of the right to speak are immeasurable.
