Chapter 424: Either Business or Art

Maybe in the eyes of some people, business and art can be balanced, but Lin Xiao doesn't know so much, in his eyes, there should be only two kinds of movies, either business or art.

It's not that commerce and art can't coexist, but, at least in his opinion, movies where commerce and art coexist must not be able to achieve the ultimate in commerce.

So it's sometimes difficult for Lin Xiao to understand why those big directors carry private goods in commercial films, but the results are nondescript, or he hasn't reached that height.

Therefore, although he welcomes Nanke's initiative to join, he still has doubts.

"Nan Dao, do you think it is possible for business and art to coexist?" Lin Xiao asked.

"I used to think that business and art are not impossible to coexist, and even if you can achieve a balance between business and art, then it is a classic. But after "A Thousand Machines", I found that maybe business and art can coexist perfectly, but at least at present, I don't have that ability. Nan Ke said with a wry smile.

"So next, does Director Nan want to direct business or art?" Lin Xiao asked again.

"Although I don't want to admit it, I still have some unsure of my pulse in commercial films, and Mr. Lin, your two films have been commercially successful, so I said bluntly, the reason why I want to join your company is mainly because of the idea of stealing teachers. Nan Ke didn't hide it, but said directly.

"For movies, my understanding is actually very shallow, but I have also summed up some things, art films, I don't understand, and I don't have a deep involvement, but commercial films, I have watched a lot, because commercial films, the pursuit is the recognition of the audience, and after watching so many successful commercial films, I found that often successful commercial films, the story of the movie is always very simple. ”

"Because most of the audience, when they go to the movies, they don't have a brain, they are more willing to relax under the pressure of work and life, so the plot doesn't need to be too complicated, what they need is the kind of well-organized story line, which can be understood at once. ”

"On the other hand, those failed commercial films, many times, the story is not told well, or there are a lot of obscure things......"

"Generally speaking, one of the most obvious characteristics of successful commercial films is that they are vulgar, vulgar, vulgar, because most moviegoers are ordinary people themselves. ”

......

"However, in my opinion, if Nandao completely gives up art films and focuses on commercial films, it will really be more than worth the loss. After Lin Xiao said a lot, he suddenly changed his words and said.

A stunned expression appeared on Nan Ke's face, and he didn't understand what Lin Xiao wanted to express.

"Let's put it this way, in my opinion, Nandao's biggest advantage is actually your achievements in art films, although art and business are somewhat contradictory, but many times, they are on the same path, and the ultimate in art can actually evolve into business. ”

"If you can reach a high level in art, then it will naturally feed back into the commercial category. To put it bluntly, it's a name. ”

"I once heard a story here, to be honest, I personally felt very shocked after listening to it, but I am a layman, so I can only feel shocked, and Nandao you are an expert in this area, maybe, you will like this story. Lin Xiao said with a smile again.

"Oh, I am a little curious about the story that can shock Mr. Lin. Nan Ke understood what Lin Xiao meant.

And what Lin Xiao said before, he also understood it quite well.

In fact, it means that he directly transformed into a commercial film, and he was a bit sacrificing.

What is his advantage? lies in his achievements in art films, but in this regard, he has not yet been able to become a pivotal existence, or has not yet achieved the extreme, so he cannot be transformed into something commercial.

But if he can achieve the ultimate in art films, even if he makes commercial films with some private goods, with his name, he may not be able to make a difference.

Nan Ke, who has experienced failure, is no longer as stubborn as in the past.

On the contrary, it was Lin Xiao who said the story that made him feel very shocked when he listened to it, which made him curious.

In fact, compared with commercial films, art films, many times, the script is more important, because an ordinary script may be able to make a blockbuster movie in the hands of a commercial director, but if an ordinary script and an ordinary story want to achieve something artistically, it is almost impossible.

The reason why Lin Xiao suddenly thought of telling a story to Nan Ke was mainly because when he exchanged the script, he actually saw a script in the system with an evaluation of over five stars.

When Lin Xiao exchanged it, after reading it, the whole person was not good.

In this script, the story is actually very simple, but it made Lin Xiao read it, and he didn't slow down for a long time.

"Fugui was originally a landlord young master, but he was addicted to gambling, and finally lost his family business, became destitute, and Fugui in poverty went to seek medical treatment because of his mother's illness, but he didn't expect to be caught by the people's army at that time on the way, and then captured by the People's Liberation Army.

When he returned to his hometown, he learned that his mother had passed away, and his wife Jiazhen had worked hard to raise a pair of children, but his daughter unfortunately became mute due to an illness. ”

"His wife Jiazhen can't do heavy work because of hypochondriasis, and the burden of the whole family is on him alone; Originally, he still had a lively and clever son, but his son died because he had the same blood type as the county magistrate's wife, and he drew too much blood to save the county magistrate's wife; his daughter Fengxia tied the knot with the second joy in the city introduced by the captain, and after giving birth to a baby boy, he died on the operating table due to heavy bleeding; and three months after Feng Xia's death, Jiazhen also died one after another; son-in-law Erxi was a porter, and was caught between two rows of cement slabs because of a mistake in the crane......

"Fugui became a loner, fortunately, his son-in-law and daughter also left him one, the lively and lovely grandson Kugen, the grandson Kugen returned to the countryside with Fugui, but life was very difficult, even the beans were difficult to eat, Fugui felt sorry for his grandson, so he boiled beans for the bitter root to eat, but the bitter root died because of eating beans......"

After listening to this, Nan Ke was silent for a long time, and after a long time, he let out a long breath.

The story that Lin Xiao said, although it is very simple, is indeed very shocking.

In this story, every touch of warmth in life is directly torn apart by death again and again.

Almost all kinds of bitterness in life are fermented in such a life story, who looks, who is so bitter that he can't speak.

In Nan Ke's eyes, this story can not be described with just two words: shock?
