Chapter 243: Everyone Has Their Own Troubles!—2/5
That's right, Shen Ming was scolded...
Shen Ming enthusiastically told several screenwriters of the company about his thoughts about "Protecting the Flag", and by the way, he said his shooting ideas: "... Paris, London, Los Angeles, Berlin... All overseas Chinese are sincerely proud!
“… Then why don't they go back home?"
"The ending is too nonsense, overseas Chinese talk about patriotism?"
"That is, if you really want to be patriotic, why don't you come back? If you really want to be patriotic, why send your son abroad? Although my son is an American citizen, it does not affect my love for my motherland?!"
"Who are you talking about?"
"A certain host!"
"Didn't people say that the reason why the child became an American citizen is because she wants him to receive a better education, which does not conflict with her patriotic complex..."
“… Come on, while talking about patriotism, you let your family become American citizens, love your country, love your grandmother!"
The masses are very distrustful of the so-called elites!
They feel that once the country is invaded by foreign enemies, the first batch of obedient people must be those rich people, and the ones who really insist on resisting must be those so-called people who do not enter the stream...
That's why there is a saying that every righteous slaughter of dogs, and the negative heart is mostly a reader!
"What have you done for the country?"
"I pay taxes and contribute to the construction of the country, how can I contribute less than overseas Chinese?"
"Stop!"
Where did all this horse go?
Shen Ming knocked on the table: "So, the ending has to be revised?"
"Of course it has to be modified... Serving the motherland is the only way out for overseas Chinese!"
“… What else?"
Yu Liang, the head of Minghui's second group of screenwriting, glanced at Shen Ming: "Mr. Shen, I always feel that your book is a bit like a documentary..."
"Yes, it's too peaceful, no orgasm!"
“… Why is there no climax? A few protagonists go out on the street and see five-star red flags everywhere, isn't this a climax?"
"Is there any difference between your so-called climax and a TV series or documentary?"
"That's right, watching the documentary, we can also bring tears to our eyes!"
“… If your story is written according to the most conventional script, it should belong to the 'Golden Fleece' genre, the male protagonist should have growth, and the success of the story is not the events themselves, but the protagonist's self-understanding from those events!"
The 'Golden Fleece type' is a film genre proposed by Save the Cat, which is suitable for road movies and civilian hero films: the protagonist "goes on the road" in search of something, and finally discovers something else - himself.
The key to writing a good script of this genre is not the distance traveled, but the way the protagonist changes as he advances, and the screenwriter's job is to make those turning points closely related to the protagonist. Everything that the protagonist goes through throughout the journey must contribute to the turning point in the protagonist's growth, and must have some kind of connection and influence on the protagonist.
"Protecting the Flag", why do you want to protect the flag?
What did the actor look like in the beginning?
What does it end up looking like?
can't be a strong patriot from the beginning, so that the audience can't substitute, and he has to go through a series of events to stimulate his hidden feelings for his family and country!
"However, your selection of materials is very good, the 2008 Olympic Games suffered almost the biggest political crisis in the history of the Olympic Games, and the collective opposition of the West..."
Shen Ming's face was very ugly: "Really?"
"Of course, the original intention of the birth of the Olympic Games was for politics, and in the '08 Olympics, the ZD forces repeatedly attacked the flame, and the banner of boycotting the Beijing Olympics was transmitted throughout the Western world... Next year is the 70th anniversary, and there will definitely be a lot of viewers willing to buy tickets to support!"
"Brother Ming, if you want to sell at the box office, of course this book can, but if you want to make a good movie, it's far from enough!"
“… Okay, you change it, and give me the script in two days!"
There is a specialization in the art industry...
Shen Ming knows how many pounds and taels he has, maybe he is more powerful in the crew and can mobilize the entire shooting team, but when he was writing the script, he didn't think very much...
After all, not a professional screenwriter...
He also didn't have time to do that much detailed investigation.
Let's hand over the script to the project team to polish...
……
“… Huabiao Award?"
"Got it, I'm definitely there!"
"Hmm!"
Hanging up the phone, Shen Ming smiled.
It seems that the people from the Film Bureau are going to show their swords this time!
Didn't you say that there are many people involved in a certain horse award, Lao Tzu invited everyone this time...
Three generations of old, middle-aged and young:
Wang Jiawei, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige;
Zhou Xingchi, Big Brother Cheng, Uncle Ge, Chen Daoming...
Four major flows, three small ones, all for you!
Huabiao Award, Political Axe Award!
Who will not see the king with you?
Roll your name and you're gott!
The original Huabiao Award, Sidan Shuangbing appeared at the same time!
It's a pity that so many people gather together to make an Oscar?
……
After getting into the car, Shen Ming called Peng Peng: "Where are you?"
“… At the door of the play?"
"Do you know that it takes more than an hour to drive from me to Pudong?
“… Schoolgirl..."
"Okay, I'll be there soon, you keep staring at the younger sister!"
Unproductive guys...
That's right, Peng Peng wants to fall in love, he wants to learn from Shen Ming, find a beautiful newcomer who was not famous at first, and grow up with her little by little, which is very fulfilling!
Brother Ming raised his hands and feet in favor...
It's better than looking for an aunt's sister!
Of course, Peng Peng is not the kind of person who is particularly profligate, he himself said that if he falls in love, he will definitely rush to get married...
Some people want to wave, but they can't get up;
Some people have that condition, but they don't want to waste...
During this time, Peng Peng was very low-key, and it was almost difficult to see him on Weibo, of course, he was not idle, after filming "Once Upon a Time in the Tropics", he was about to join the group "Tennis Boy"...
Shen Ming sometimes envied him.
He thinks that an actor should be like Peng Peng...
You don't have to think about it so much, you just need to act in the works you like, unlike him, you have to worry about a lot of things...
Now, there are too many people eating with Shen Ming...
It's no longer possible to do whatever you want and write on INS as you used to be...
In fact, the best state of an actor is to have enough life, maintain enough mystery, try to reject the media, and don't let yourself become a talking point...
The face is the material of the actor, and if you usually use too much, you are dissolving yourself.
Only by hiding in the role can you feel safe, at ease, the best actor, willing to sacrifice your pain, your joy, your whole life, and unswerving...
What is sold on the table should be the work, as for the actors themselves, it is better not to sell them.
It's a pity that such actors don't exist in this era!
Even if there is, as soon as the media is exposed, the public's interest in you will burn what you want to hide, and then you can't wait to close the coffin and say, 'So that's the kind of person he is!'
Shen Ming can be very comfortable in such an era, which is his luck and misfortune!
But he didn't know that Peng Peng was very envious of him...
