Chapter 230: Confirm the Director (4200+ Chapters, Ask for Subscription~)

In the evening, Grange Zhuang took his script and found Wu Jianye.

"This is the script I wrote, you can help me read it first!"

Wu Jianye didn't say anything, took the script of Grangezhuang, and handed a copy of the script of "The Red Lantern Hangs High" to Grangezhuang.

The two didn't have much conversation, and in Wu Jianye's room, there was smoke, and occasionally there was the sound of flipping books, so it could be seen that both of them were looking at each other's scripts very seriously.

The script of Grange tells the story of several young people during the great change, the choices of each youth during the great change, and the choice after the end of the change.

The whole script revolves around choices, including forced and helpless choices, as well as intrigue choices, but all choices are based on choices in the broader context.

For example, at the beginning of the film, there was a young man who did not respond to the call, no matter who mobilized, he just didn't go, he was in a hurry, and he had to sleep after taking off his clothes.

Or after the great change, some people hurriedly returned to their original city, and left the big pigtailed girl on the wheat stack at that time, he once said that he would take care of it for the rest of his life.

Soon, Grange Zhuang also finished reading Wu Jianye's script.

"Your book is not easy to shoot, although the whole story takes place in a compound, but the compound is society, and each character in it represents a group, and you want to show such a huge system in a small space, it's difficult!"

"You think it's easy for you, according to what you wrote in your script, four or five young people, different cities, different backgrounds, each character you want to express your own feelings, so it's easy for the audience to be unable to distinguish between priorities and priorities, and the portrayal of the characters in your script is too heavy, but the storyline is a little thin, it's not so easy to support these characters!" Wu Jianye was not polite and said his thoughts.

"The characters are the soul of the whole movie, all the storylines are set for the characters, I don't think there's anything wrong with me doing this!" Grange Zhuang is very confident in his script.

"Characters without a story to support it, even if there is a soul, it is a broken soul, which can only make the audience see in the clouds, in the final analysis, you make a movie, it is for the audience, it is too sunny and snowy, and it can't resonate with the audience, then this movie can only become a movie with your distinctive personal characteristics, but it is useless in the eyes of outsiders!" Wu Jianye did not take into account the friendship between his classmates at this time, and bluntly said the shortcomings in the script of Grange Zhuangzhuang.

Grange Zhuang kept his neck and said: "Why is it snowing, besides, the movie itself is a way for a director to tell the world his thoughts, my film will never deliberately meet the so-called audience, only for those who understand the meaning!"

"Film is a collective work of art, it is not only the work of the director, but also the work of actors, all the people behind the scenes, and even the task of the studio.

Soon the argument between the two attracted the attention of others, Zhang Huijun, Mu Deyuan and others lived next door to Wu Jianye, and ran over when they heard the movement.

"What are you two arguing about?" Zhang Huijun looked at the tense appearance of Wu Jianye and Tianzhuang Zhuangzhuang, and immediately asked nervously.

"That's it, everyone is classmates, and the students living upstairs are all students of this year's class, you two are like this, what do those students think?" Mu Deyuan also said hurriedly.

Wu Jianye and Tianzhuang glanced at Zhang Huijun and Mu Deyuan in confusion, and asked, "Who said that the two of me quarreled?"

Zhang Huijun and Mu Deyuan glanced at each other, then pointed at them and said, "You are both like this, aren't you quarreling?"

Wu Jianye smiled: "Of course not, we just have some different views on the movie." ”

Tian Zhuangzhuang also smiled lazily: "If you are louder, you are quarrelling, in that case, wouldn't I be arguing with those students every day!"

After listening to Wu Jianye and Tianzhuangzhuang's words, Zhang Huijun and Mu Deyuan were obviously relieved, and said with a smile: "I thought you two were quarrelling!"

"Just kidding! If you two quarrel, neither of us will either!" Wu Jianye glanced at them.

Then soon Zhang Huijun and Mu Deyuan also joined the discussion of the two films, everyone had their own ideas, expressed their opinions, and sometimes they would blush and slam the door, but soon this discussion will continue.

Since I had to wait for other people's scripts, in late November, the leaders of the school and the experimental studio finally decided to use Wu Jianye's script after several meetings!

This made the Grange a little disappointed.

"The academy and the experimental studio have already held a meeting to approve the use of your script, but if you want to become the director of this film, you still have some work to do, and when you go back, write out the shooting ideas of this movie, and we will have a meeting to study it!" said director Cheng Yin.

Wu Jianye also knew that whether it was the school or the youth factory, he must still have some disbelief in a newcomer, even if he had already served as the assistant director of two films, but in the eyes of some people, he was still too young and not qualified enough.

"Okay, Dean, I know how to do it!" Wu Jianye nodded, but he was also very confident in his heart, in this era, no one knew the movie "Hang the Red Lantern High" better than him.

"By the way, aren't you good at drawing storyboards, draw storyboards well!" Cheng Yin nodded.

"Thank you, Dean!" Wu Jianye immediately said with a comprehension.

Drawing storyboards is much more tiring than writing scripts, but fortunately, the pictures in the movie are firmly in Wu Jianye's mind, the neat Qiao family compound, the distinctive wife's room, Wu Jianye painted them one by one.......

Youth Film Studios!

Inside the conference room!

Most of the conference rooms during this period consisted of a few tables and chairs, and Wu Jianye sat there, opposite the leaders of the academy and the studio.

"Xiao Wu, after the study of the conference, we are very satisfied with your script and storyboard, but we all know that you are from the art design class of the academy, and we don't know your directing ability, and you also know that this movie will be the most important drama in our factory next year, so we still want to hear your own thoughts on this play!" The leader of the experimental studio looked at Wu Jianye with a solemn expression.

In fact, when he came to the experimental studio, Cheng Yin had already told Wu Jianye that the experimental studio was more inclined to let an experienced director or a student from the directing department direct this movie, and Wu Jianye could continue to serve as the assistant director of this film.

Wu Jianye naturally couldn't accept this, but he also knew that he couldn't refuse so bluntly, otherwise he would be cut off from Chinese movies.

Many times in this era, seniority and rules are more important than others, just like the rules of the Chen Mansion in the movie "The Red Lantern Hangs High.......

However, later Dean Cheng Yin also cherished talents, and asked for this interview opportunity for Wu Jianye.

After sorting out his mood and considering the language, Wu Jianye spoke: "This movie itself is depressing, the entire Chen Mansion looks like an ordinary mansion, but it is full of feudal dogmas inside, and the heroine in the play, Song Lian, is a college student, and her arrival makes everything look so normal......"

"Xiao Wu, we heard the dean say that you have a lot of confidence in this movie, thinking that he can go abroad and receive attention from abroad?" someone asked.

This is another reason why others agreed to Wu Jianye's participation in this inquiry meeting, when Wu Jianye told Cheng Yin that he was confident to lead the film out of the country, and now the whole country is in dire need of foreign exchange, and last year's foreign exchange reserves in the country were only a little more than 2.7 billion US dollars, if this film can bring foreign exchange to the youth studio, then the significance will be greater than the success of the film itself.

Wu Jianye immediately said: "Yes, now with the advent of China's reform and opening up, not only are we looking at the world, the world is also watching our China, in my opinion, movies are a good communication medium, we can let the world understand the history of China through the world of light and shadow!"

"Xiao Wu, you have to know that this kind of thing can't be a joke!" continued, the leader of the experimental studio.

"Yes, our factory's annual production index is lower than that of other factories, if you just talk about it, you will suffer in the end!"

"Leaders, I can make a military order, and I have the confidence to let him go abroad and go to the world in this movie!" Wu Jianye said categorically.

The leaders on the opposite side looked at each other, and finally said, "Okay, you go back and wait for the notice first!"

"Xiao Wu, you are still a little impulsive, your talent is undoubted, even if you can't become a director in this movie now, but as long as you stay up for another year or two, you can officially become a director, and now that your military order is established, there is no way back!"

The day after returning to the academy, Dean Cheng Yin found Wu Jianye and said earnestly.

Wu Jianye looked indifferent, and said with a smile: "Dean, didn't you always teach us before, young people should have a momentum!"

"You!" Cheng Yin glanced at Wu Jianye with a smile, and then said solemnly: "After a meeting between the academy and the studio, the final decision is that you will be the director of this film, and you will be responsible for the production team and actors!"

"Thank you, Dean!" Wu Jianye sincerely thanked, he knew that without Cheng Yin's help, he would not have been able to direct a film independently in less than a year after graduation.

This is not the next generation, no matter what you do, as long as you are supported by the capital of the future, you will be able to be a director and make movies, the most important thing in this era is qualifications, and it is impossible to be a director at the age of Wu Jianye without qualifications.

The background is as strong as Chen Kaige, and the Grange has to stay up for two years to have this opportunity.

Soon this matter spread all over the academy, and then it was Wu Jianye's classmates in Class 78, and finally it was the various film studios, everyone knew that the experimental studio promoted Wu Jianye exceptionally and let him serve as the director of a movie, which is the first time in the domestic film industry.

For a while, all kinds of criticisms were endless, and the major studios did not deny Wu Jianye's talent, but everyone valued his acting and script-writing talent more, although he also served as the assistant director of two films, but it was still not enough.

"Did you really make a military order?"

In the courtyard, Zhu Xuan looked at Wu Jianye with a worried face, she had heard the news that Wu Jianye was going to be a director in Yanying Studio, and even knew about his military order.

Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Yes, if you don't make a military order, they can't let me be a director!"

"Isn't it a little too risky?" Zhu Yan was still a little uneasy.

"Don't worry, when have I ever done something I'm not sure of, you just wait for your man to become an internationally renowned director in the future!" Wu Jianye teased.

"I hate it, when is it, you still say this, so do you have a specific idea now?" Zhu Yan asked.

Wu Jianye just wanted to answer, but there were a lot of people in the courtyard, and they were basically classmates who stayed in Yanjing.

Zhang Huijun, Mu Deyuan, Tianzhuangzhuang, Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaoning, Xie Xiaojing, Fang Shu and others, a group of people, the entire courtyard was lively for a while.

When Chen Kaige saw Wu Jianye, he also had mixed feelings in his heart, he was proud, he always thought that he was the most capable among his classmates, but now Wu Jianye has become a director one step ahead of him, this is not an experimental work shot in school, but a serious film work.

However, at this time, Chen Kaige still sent his blessings, and said, if Wu Jianye needs any help, just ask.

After Fang Shu graduated, she was assigned to Yanying Studio, and chatted with Zhu Yan and the two girls.

Wu Jianye naturally expressed his gratitude for everyone's arrival, he knew that these classmates came here because they cared about themselves, one was to congratulate themselves, and the other was to see if they could help themselves.

Wu Jianye suggested that everyone stay in the courtyard at night, and he asked Wu Shuangqing and Zhao Xiaoyan to buy food.

Even though Yanjing in November is already very cold, there are many people, and everyone is not so cold when they chat.

"Lao Wu, this time you are fighting for our students in class 78, everyone is still in the studio, you can direct movies independently!" Feng Xiaoning said enviously.

"I'm just catching up!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.

"It's still your outstanding ability, when I went to school, I knew that Lao Wu you would definitely be able to succeed!" Fang Shu said with a smile on the side.

"Haha, it's too late for Fang Shu to say this now, who made you fall in love with Lao Chen in the first place!" Zhang Huijun quipped.

Among the couples in class 78, Fang Shu and Chen Guoxing are a couple, and the two even entered the palace of wedding, but unfortunately, the wedding of the two did not come to an end, and finally ended in divorce.

Fang Shu and Tu Honggang got together after the divorce, but in the end, the sister-brother relationship still did not come to an end.......

"Who made that old Wu's eyes full of sorrow!" Fang Shu joked.

Zhu Yan was beside him, his face was slightly ruddy.

"By the way, Lao Wu, does your movie have any melancholy roles?" Fang Shu asked curiously.

Wu Jianye smiled: "There is no melancholy role, but there is a role that is very suitable for you, are you interested?"
