Section 478:
A phone call broke Song Mingyang's thinking.
This made Song Mingyang frown.
It's late now, and I really don't know who will call at this point. And when he took the phone, he saw the name on the caller ID and looked stunned.
It's his editor.
"Hey. ”
Song Mingyang connected the phone, and the other party's voice immediately came over through the radio waves.
"Teacher Song, I'm sorry to bother you so late. ”
Song Mingyang said: "It's okay, I just didn't sleep." ”
The other party asked, "Did you just finish watching today's "Avatar"?"
Song Mingyang snorted.
The other party said again: "It's just right, now that I'm calling here, it's also related to this matter." Here's the thing, Mr. Song, I hope that when you write "Avatar", try to write on the good side. ”
Song Mingyang raised his eyebrows, pondered for a while, and said: "I like this movie very much, and it is very well shot." ”
When the other party heard this, he hurriedly said, "That's good, then it's good, then it's troublesome Teacher Song." It's not too early, so I won't disturb Mr. Song's rest, good night. Then he hung up.
After putting down the phone, Song Mingyang silently thought for a while.
It's not the first time he's encountered this kind of thing, generally speaking, it's the producer or distributor who is contributing, but this time he is really not sure if this is the two parties of "Avatar" who are contributing - maybe there are theaters in it this time.
In the face of this kind of milestone movie, as long as the distributor takes the initiative to link up a little, the theater chain may be able to take advantage of the trend and half-sell and half-send to contribute.
He even has an absurd idea, that is, the theater party that carries dry food and does it on their own may have it. After all, in the current market environment, this movie is of great significance to the theater chain, especially those large theater chains that have laid out early and are willing to pay for it.
This is what those large cinema chains that have been laid out early have been waiting for.
After thinking about it for a long time, Song Mingyang shook his head, stopped thinking about these things that had nothing to do with him, and returned his attention to the computer in front of him.
He closed the page of Time.com, opened a forum called "Platform 7", and entered the movie section inside.
It's a very niche forum, and niche, a lot of times, also means elitist.
Platform 7 is one such forum, and most people are unaware that there is such a forum on the Internet.
This is a professional forum that focuses on film content, mainly for directors, screenwriters, photographers and other crews, as well as some professional film critics, and the daily content of the forum mainly includes recruitment, application, technical discussions, film discussions, etc. And this small forum is also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and from time to time some industry predators will come forward, either recruiting people, or blowing water and chatting for project marketing.
After entering the movie section, Song Mingyang roughly browsed and found that except for a few posts at the top, the posts on the first page are basically around "Avatar", which shows that this movie is indeed the most popular work in China at the moment.
He clicked into a post titled "Chinese movies that are both happy and sad", which has become popular - Piaohong, indicating that the popularity of this post is very high.
Then he looked at the user's ID and saw that it was a post from a user called "Gone with the Wind".
This one passed away with the wind and was not active in the forum, but Song Mingyang just caught up with his post. He also vaguely remembered that in this post that disappeared with the wind at that time, some people said that he was the photographer Chen Mingu who won the Huabiao Award, but he did not get a response, but he left an impression on Song Mingyang.
Song Mingyang also knows some people in the industry, but he really doesn't know this Chen Mingu, so he doesn't know if it's true or not.
But he thought about it for a moment, and turned his attention to the body of the post.
"I went to watch "Avatar" with a few friends today, and after reading it, I feel that I have a lot of things to say in my heart, so I will write it here, so let's take a look at it. ”
"I won't go into details about the whole movie, but I'm sure many people have seen it, so I'll talk about what happened when I watched the movie. ”
"In the process of watching the movie, a few of us said very little, and after the movie was over, there was a collective silence, and finally Director Pan spoke first. Not long after this sentence, I still remember it very clearly, he said, when will our country reach this level?"
This sentence is heavy, it can be said to be pessimistic, even hopeless. ”
Then Ning took on a sentence from him, basically saying that half of this movie was originally our country, and if you really want to talk about it from capital, it can be said that it is all Chinese. What Ning said makes sense, but we all understand that he is looking for face in the end. This movie, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the big technologies are all from Hollywood, which really makes us see the overall gap, which is a sad place. ”
Later, we discussed it for a while, and Ning Bian said half and half, but he found some truth again, after all, the director of this movie is Shen Huan. Hollywood's technology is there, why don't they toss out such a movie, and don't get it out until Shen Huan passes? It can be seen that Shen Huan's contribution is not small, this young director is too surprising, and it also makes people want to get to know him, but unfortunately I haven't known him, only Director Pan has had contact with him among the few of us. He also wrote songs for Director Pan's movies at the beginning, and he is really versatile, but this kind of person is better to concentrate on making movies. ”
"After that, we also talked about the cooperation model of the film, and then we talked about the details, and the more we talked about it, the better it became. I also knew about this aspect before, and I didn't think it was like it at the time, but now that the final picture of this movie has come out, I feel that it is good, and for the future development of Chinese films, this is even more meaningful than the movie itself. The more my friends talked, the more excited they became, as if they had found their younger selves, and they were very passionate, which was good. These are the happy places. ”
"Speaking of which, I've said pretty much what I want to say, and finally thanks to this young man for teaching us old guys a lesson, great movies. ”
Looking at the content, it seems that this one has gone with the wind, and it seems that it is really possible that it is that Chen Mingu. The Pan Dao inside, as well as Ning Bian, and Song Mingyang almost guessed who it was.
And in the comments on the following post, there are also some users who are making guesses and asking for a reply, some are friendly, and some are yin and yang.
"Director Pan is Director Pan Chenjun, right? Three hours is not short, Director Pan is old, it is really not easy to hold on. ”
"The landlord is Chen Min, Mr. Chen, right? You are my idol. ”
"Teacher Chen also plays the forum, I only found out today. ”
"When did Ning Bian come out?" Teacher Chen told him that he had to be careful next time. ”
……
After browsing for a while, Song Mingyang withdrew from this post, and looked at a few more posts about "Avatar", which specifically discussed the use of lenses in "Avatar", discussed the introduction of this 3D technology and the possibility of specific expression, discussed structural aesthetics and practical effects, and so on.
Platform 7 only has post replies, and there is no such thing as a movie rating, so I can't find a specific rating, but from browsing these posts, you can see that these people on the forum are extremely respectful of this movie. And from browsing these posts, Song Mingyang also feels that he has grown a lot of knowledge. Although he can't write it in his own film reviews, this knowledge has made his understanding of this movie a step further, which is undoubtedly beneficial to the writing of the overall article, and can make his writing more meaningful and solid.
After browsing for a long time, the time had already passed twelve o'clock.
According to Song Mingyang's normal routine, he was already asleep at this time, but now his mind was full of thoughts, and he couldn't sleep at all, so he simply opened the document, lit a cigarette, and began to write after smoking.
And on this night, at this point, there are still many people like Song Mingyang who are still working.
