[The script is the source of a movie.] Without a script, no matter how large and professional a filmmaking team is, it will be lost. 】

[Writing a script is hard work, and for any writer, the most basic thing is to endure the boredom of writing only one word at a time. You can't think about writing the script all at once, it's almost enough to write two or three pages a day, stick to it, and you'll have hundreds of pages. 】

[If you want to be a director, you must first write a script and understand the structure and essence of the movie. Then keep seeking the advice of others and listen to your inner voice to polish it. If you don't even have the patience to write a script, then what else is possible to be a director?]

[A film can originate from a meaningless detail, such as the feeling of a color, the recollection of a look, the lingering nostalgia for a melody that hovers in your ears all day long. 】

[The reason why I wanted to write a story like "Time and Space Traveler" was originally just a question that arose when I was chatting with my friends: how to confirm whether I really like someone?]

[In the end, we made the assumption that if our lives can be repeated with memories, we can avoid many traps in life, and we can also take many detours, but the price of taking shortcuts is to miss that person, and at this time, if we are still willing to meet that person at the same time and in the same place, then I think this is really liking. 】

[Want to know my choice? Go to the movie, I put my choice in the movie. 】

【......】

In the first episode of the "Director's Notes" series of videos, Han Jue talked about his understanding of movies and scripts from the perspective of a veteran film and television practitioner.

In the video, Han Jue is always busy writing.

On the plane, at the dining table, at the desk, and even before singing on stage, he suddenly thought of a wonderful line, he immediately took out a piece of paper and wrote it down, and after writing, he looked at the paper with a smile and was satisfied, and went on stage to sing. In the next scene, Han Jue came back after singing, picked up the piece of paper on which he had written his lines before, frowned and looked at it with disgust, "What a thing!", crumpled it up a few times, threw it away, pursed his lips and began to think of new lines.

Xiao Zhou, who holds the camera in hand, sometimes asks Han Jue about some problems that he will encounter in the process of writing the script. After the script is written, there are those that need attention.

Han Jue briefly talked about how he solved it, and he seemed to be very experienced.

Nowadays, most people recognize Han Jue's talent in music, and their brains make up for how Han Jue learned from his pain and calmed down to study music production hard during the five years when he was silent and hidden. But everyone didn't expect that in those five years, Han Jue seemed to learn to write scripts and make movies in addition to learning music production.

Let's not talk about the movie for the time being, but that posture is quite professional.

This made people who ridiculed Han Jue a few months ago for making movies as playing tickets and making money, and felt a slight pain in their faces.

"It's too fake, it's too fake!" So some people suspected Han Jue, saying that this video was a show, and the dialogue in the video was also memorized, "This is a character design!"

History is always strikingly similar, and when Han Jue wrote a masterpiece of music, it was also such waves of doubts.

But now Han Jue is also a person with fans and fans, and he smiled and persuaded the people who were black Han Jue over there not to talk too much, you must know that the Internet has a memory.

I really hesitated over there, and now I haven't seen the final movie, and all the depreciation is an attic in the air, and it can't stand. So they decided to wait for the premiere to end, and it was not too late for the first batch of word-of-mouth to come out.

People on both sides are very confident.

Seeing that the Chinese Valentine's Day is coming, more and more people are paying attention to the [Zhumen Film Festival].

......

......

For the natives of China, the scenery of Chang'an has its own uniqueness under the addition of history, but the strong Chinese atmosphere is nothing unusual, but everything here is really rare for Han Jue.

A group of them got off the plane and took a bus to the hotel where they stayed, and Han Jue looked at the scenery outside the window all the way, dizzying.

Han Jue came over with Xia Yuan, Pei Qing, and Song Yin's team of producers. Tomorrow is the premiere of the movie, and they will only meet in the magic capital at noon.

Han Jue's record recording in the United States was in the final stage, and he really couldn't leave. Otherwise, Han Jue also wanted to arrive in Chang'an early with Jarrens, and then watch movies, eat, and visit the ancient city all day long.

On the bus, there were no outsiders, and everyone chatted freely about the content of "Time and Space Love Traveler", and the atmosphere was unprecedentedly warm.

In the entire production team, only Xia Yuan, Jalens, Pei Qing and Han Jue have watched the final version of the finished film, although the others have also read the script and know the plot, but they have almost forgotten about it today, and they deliberately didn't watch it during the internal test screening, and specially left it until the premiere of the [Zhumen Film Festival] to watch it with the audience.

Pei Qing turned back from the front row and asked Han Jue, "What about Valentine's Day?"

Pei Qing's words sounded very ambiguous, which made the other people laugh when they heard it.

Han Jue looked out the window and didn't reply: "The cat is in my studio partner." ”

Pei Qing said with a smile: "I'm asking you how you plan to spend Qixi Festival." ”

Han Jue rolled his eyes: "I'm not a single girl, what kind of Qixi Festival do I have." ”

Valentine's Day in China is the Shangyuan Festival, the Shangyuan Festival where "everyone looks for him thousands of times, and suddenly looks back, but the person is in the lamplight". However, as society develops so far, consumerism has the power to redefine all festivals. Its ultimate goal is only one - consumption, so that all modern festivals serve shopping.

Qixi Festival has been a festival for single girls since ancient times, and it is a serious "Girl's Day", but because it has a legend of the Cowherd and Weaver Girl, with a bit of romance, so under the marketing of merchants, the Qixi Festival has gradually changed to Valentine's Day - after all, the consumption power between couples is stronger.

Han Jue didn't love all kinds of festivals in his previous life, and he didn't like to consume during festivals. Because every festival, when you go out on the street, there are a lot of people, there is a long queue for dinner, and the seats for watching movies are very marginal. You don't get to know the joy of the festival at all.

In his opinion, the biggest role of the festival is to give some cowards a reason to talk or meet with people they usually dare not find.

"It's a bit like Girls' Day now," Xia Yuan, who was sitting next to Han Jue, turned his head and asked Han Jue, "Our movie has become a thug of the traditional festival of consumerism and alienation, aren't you angry?"

"Movies have inherently commodity attributes, and marketing commodities is the right means to do so, so what's there to be angry about. Han Jue seemed very indifferent: "Besides, I will only be responsible for the creation of the film, and the subsequent handling of the work is the work of you producers, and we will not interfere with each other." ”

When Han Jue was creating, Xia Yuan really never interfered with him. Now that the movie has been filmed and cut, it is really all handed over to Xia Yuan to deal with. And if he handed over the movie to Xia Yuan to deal with, he would not have the slightest worry.

Xia Yuan asked, "Did you give the ticket to your friend?"

"Given," Han Jue nodded, "Come on." ”

"At least there will be a little bit of starlight at the premiere. ”

"The critics?"

"Looked for some, others uninvited. Xia Yuan said.

Originally, the movie premiere was going to call some film critics to watch it. Film critics are the vane of the audience's viewing of movies, and a good film review can sometimes save a movie. Xia Yuan didn't know any film critics, so even if they paid money, they had to invite some less strict film critics to watch the movie. But before Xia Yuan used up this part of the budget, some film critics of all sizes posted photos on Weite, saying that they had bought tickets for "Time and Space Traveler". Among them, there are some film critics with harsh eyes and poisonous mouths.

Xia Yuan knew that someone had spent money to fix them.

"Who?" Pei Qing asked.

Xia Yuan reported a few names.

Pei Qing knew that one or two of them were for people who wrote film reviews in well-known newspapers, and some people often described them as "particularly difficult", and I don't know how they were moved this time.

However, Pei Qing was not too flustered: "Don't be afraid, good works always talk to themselves, and it's useless for them to bring rhythm." ”

"Hey, the visitor is a guest, let's be hospitable. Han Jue waved his hand.

After all, the movie has been made, and everything that can be understood or misunderstood is there. As a creator, in the face of thousands of people's various critical voices, Han Jue was already used to it in his previous life. And some criticisms can indeed point out the shortcomings, don't take yourself too seriously and you can put your mentality right.

"Tut-tut, hypocrisy," Pei Qing shook his head, "Sure enough, you people in the entertainment industry are the best at making friends." ”

Song Yin on the side snorted and said that he was really temperamental.

Xia Yuan asked, "What about your good friend who went to Qiong Province with you?"

As soon as this question came out, everyone in the whole car [Oh Oh~] coaxed, and they all knew who that good friend was referring to.

"She said she would be there tomorrow. Han Jue also laughed when he said this.

On the phone last week, Zhang Yiman watched the trailer of "Time and Space Traveler", and after hearing that "Time and Space Traveler" was scheduled to be released on Qixi Festival, he smartly guessed that this movie was a romance movie. This movie is probably the anniversary gift that Han Jue said, and it is also the content of Gu Fan's words on the phone.

After Zhang Yiman guessed it, she tried her best to hide that she didn't see through the surprise, and whenever Han Jue wanted to talk about the movie, she forcibly changed the topic "empatheticly". This is not self-confessing, Han Jue is also willing to cooperate with her, and only tells her that she remembers to come on the day of the premiere, and there are good things. Zhang Yiman on the other end of the phone couldn't help but smile and responded.

After Han Jue and his group arrived, it was almost evening after the hotel and Jalens and them converged.

Jalens ran over excitedly and invited everyone to listen to his acceptance speech. It can be seen that after staying in [Zhumen] for a few days, Jalens drew his sword and looked around in a daze, and he was already quite inflated.

Since there is business tomorrow, everyone eats this dinner with restraint.

The next day, Han Jue got up early as usual, exercised in the hotel's gym for a while, and then had breakfast in the restaurant with his friends who appeared one after another.

The table was very lively, and everyone was as excited as the elementary school students before the spring outing.

The premiere is at half past nine in the morning.

At half-past seven, a group of people set out in a majestic manner.

The main creator sits in one, and the producer sits in one.

......

......

Since 7 o'clock in the morning, the security guards on the side of Cinema 7 have been in place early, and there are a large number of spectators waiting to enter the door.

The premiere of "Time and Space Traveler" has been long-awaited by many people, and it is the number one traffic of [Zhumen] this year, and [Zhumen] has also correspondingly paid the greatest attention, made a red carpet, and also sent a special host.

At 8:40, the vehicles loaded with the crew of "Time and Space Traveler" arrived at the door of the theater one after another, attracting cheers from the audience.

"Now Han Jue, they're here!" Koike grabbed a good position early and pointed the camera at the door of the car. And Qianqian and Xiao Xia concentrated on shouting Han Jue's name on the side.

Han Jue was the first to come out, and as soon as the opening scene began, the audience was in a commotion, and the shutter of the reporter's camera kept pressing.

There were Asians and Europeans in the audience. When Han Jue came out, Chinese and English with various accents were mixed together to welcome him.

Han Jue found Xiao Chi and them, and after saying hello, he signed the autograph board and went in first.

Then came Jack, and they appeared one by one. When Jack and the foreigners appeared, all the foreigners in the room shouted their names in unison:

"Jack, Jack, Jack!"

"Jennifer, Jennifer, Jennifer!"

Jack waved his hands vigorously at his compatriots and fellow countrymen, almost bursting into tears.

Later, every main creator, whether it is Chinese or American, whether famous or unknown, good-looking or not-looking, received a lot of applause and shouts when they came out.

After the main creator left, it was the stars who came to support.

There are Gu Fan, Zhang Zishang, Xiao Fan, and some celebrity friends invited by Xia Yuan and Song Yin.

Everyone signed and took photos, and then entered the theater.

Then the theater opened, and the audience appeared with tickets.

After a while, the screening room was full.

When it's full, the movie doesn't start right away – when the main creative staff is on stage, there has to be a short interview.

Han Jue was on the stage, and he had a panoramic view of the 600 people in the audience. He saw some film critics with serious expressions, saw the people on the side of [Zhumen], and also saw Gu Fan sitting in the second row waving to him, saw Xiao Fan, saw Zhang Zishang, saw Xiao Chi, and saw many, many fans, including his and Zhang Yiman's.

Han Jue even saw [. N.5] Han Jue smiled and waved at them again, which still caused them to respond excitedly.

But Han Jue only didn't see the person he wanted to see the most today.

There was a spot on Xia Yuan's side that was vacant - her fans came, but she didn't.

The host said: "Let's first ask Han Jue, the director of "Time and Space Traveler", to say a few words. ”

Han Jue's name immediately sounded at the scene:

"Han Jue! Han Jue!

Some of these viewers are fans of Han Jue, and some are fans of Han Jue. Some of them are not from Chang'an, and the reason why they came to Chang'an thousands of miles away is to give Han Jue support.

"Please don't shout, I'm a little unused to it," Han Jue put aside the thoughts in his head, suppressed the call with gestures, and joked, "I'm not used to having more than four hundred people shouting my name together." ”

Everyone in the audience laughed.

As soon as the momentum dissipated, he really didn't shout.

"Now that you're in the cinema, I want you to forget about my previous image in reality TV, and put aside what I got in music, and just watch this movie for more than two hours. Of course, after watching the movie, you still have to remember what you should remember and pick up what you should pick up. ”

Han Jue held the microphone and stood tall next to a few Americans, wearing a suit but not abrupt at all. The people in the audience saw too much of Han Jue's appearance in a suit, and even felt that those foreigners were wearing suits very discordantly and were fake foreigners.

"Other things related to the movie, we'll discuss it after you finish watching the movie," and then Han Jue didn't wait for the host to continue to ask anything, so he introduced Jack who was standing next to him: "This one is our actor, Di Jack." ”

After pushing Jack out, although Han Jue was smiling, his eyes were always looking for something in the audience.

Jack picked up the microphone and greeted everyone with a smile, one over Chinese and one in English.

Looking at the strange or playful eyes in the audience, Jack said: "Like everyone, I have a doubt in my heart - why Director Han doesn't look for Chinese people and celebrities, but instead finds me, an American nobody, to be the actor." Later, I risked losing my job to ask Director Han, and Director Han told me that film and television dramas don't need stars, and the important thing in film and television dramas is the characters, characters, and whether they can make people empathize. ”

"I like to raise the bar, and I then asked, there are so many good actors who are not stars, why are they still looking for me. Director Han was impatient, and he said, "Jack paused, imitating Han Jue's frowning expression and flat voice, and said, "[Do you have to say that I chose you because of the fact that you are cheaper?]"

The audience laughed. Because of Han Jue's words, and because Jack imitated Han Jue vividly in a few moments, he showed his skills.

Then it was Jennifer's turn to speak.

In the past, Jennifer said the most in high spirits on this occasion, after nearly two years of sinking, she held the microphone and thanked Han Jue for a while: "After two years of absence from the screen, standing here on the other side of the ocean today, I have a lot to say, but in the end I just want to thank Director Han ......"

Han Jue smiled and patted her on the shoulder: "Save these words for later, let's talk about winning the grand prize later." ”

"Finally, let's talk about it with our producers. The host said.

Jalens patted the microphone twice with the palm of his hand, then put it to his lips, ready to say something.

The audience's eyes focused on the long-haired freak wearing sunglasses in the theater, and found that Jalens had not spoken for a long time.

The scene was quite quiet for a while.

Just as the host was about to answer the round, Jalens said, "I've been standing in this place for five years. At a time when no one in the world believed that I could make a movie, only eleven people believed in me. Xia Yuan, Song Yin, Pei Qing, Li Chengjing...... Han Jue. This is our film, and everyone is welcome to watch our film...... I hope you enjoy it. ”

It was just half past nine.

In the warm applause, Han Jue and the others came down from the stage to the first row and sat down, waiting for the film to be screened.

The movie is about to start, and the audience consciously puts their phones on silent, adjusts their sitting positions, and waits for the screen to light up.

After Han Jue sat in his position, he still didn't give up searching for the target, and kept looking back. When he makes eye contact with fans, he smiles. But Xia Yuan knew that Han Jue was not as calm as he looked.

Xia Yuan squatted next to Han Jue and asked, "Did she send you a message?"

Han Jue shook his head: "I don't know, my phone is not on me." ”

"Do you remember her number?" asked Natsuhara, "try it on my phone." ”

Han Jue remembered Zhang Yiman's number. However, he used Xia Yuan's mobile phone to send a text message, but there was no response.

Han Jue held his phone and took a deep breath.

However, until the lights in the screening room were completely dimmed and the screen was lit up, Zhang Yiman did not appear.

The logo of Jalens Productions slowly lit up on the screen.

Jalens smugly looked left and right, but couldn't see anything clearly because he was wearing sunglasses.

The feature film has already begun, but Han Jue has no heart to watch it at all.

[Will you get lost?]

[Still blocked by fans?]

[Could it be that something happened on the road?......]

Bad scenes flashed in Han Jue's mind, and the whole person couldn't sit still.

Han Jue was about to ask Jalens beside him for leave and leave the table to find Zhang Yiman, when suddenly, a soft body arched and crashed into his arms.

Han Jue subconsciously wanted to fall down the thing that suddenly appeared, but the second subconsciously came first, and he hugged the person in his arms tightly to prevent her from slipping.

"Ha, ha, ha......" A slightly panting voice sounded in his ears: "Uncle! I, I'm coming~"

"Whew~" Han Jue smelled the familiar smell, he hugged the person in his arms tightly, tilted his head, and exhaled a long breath.
