Chapter 191: A world where two heroes confront each other, I'm not black, you're not white!
PS: Ask for a recommended ticket, ask for a monthly pass!
"Rustling ......"
Wu Xiaozu held the drawing board, and the sketch pen "carved" the characters on the white paper word by word.
Tens of millions of investment, this is a new challenge for Wu Xiaozu.
Since "The Butcher on a Rainy Night", "The Birth of a Word", and "Crazy Boy", every movie has witnessed his growth, and with the improvement of his understanding of movies, there will be a stage of self-improvement every time.
From the sword going sideways, to slowly getting better, and then to the new insight.
Step by step, Wu Xiaozu is accustomed to using his own understanding to interpret the characters and stories under his lens. Every shot condenses his sweat and dedication.
He writes scripts, finalizes film scripts, sketches stories, scouts locations, sets up shots, lighting, and even post-production editing. The effort and hard work paid, how can outsiders pay attention?
Wu Xiaozu's low level in the entertainment industry, coupled with his reputation for being good at "uniting" his peers, makes him a notorious-stirring stick and mad dog in the entertainment industry. The reputation is not much stronger than that of the wheat party in the previous two years. At least the foundation of Mai Dangxiong is better than that behind him, and the relationship with Jiahe is better than him.
Copy?
Cheat?
Copy?
In fact, since the first "Butcher on a Rainy Night", Wu Xiaozu has mixed a lot of his own ideas and styles in addition to his business sense. After three films, he found an opportunity to take charge of big casts and big productions.
Directing is a profession that requires a special sense of the times and life experience.
We often find that some amazing directors will always be mediocre over time. This in itself is the inaccuracy of the self's sense of smell of the times and the limitation of life experience.
Directing a film is a very simple job, so simple that as long as you can shout "action", you can play the role.
At the same time, directing is an extremely demanding job that requires awe, and this profession requires you to have strong coordination skills, rational judgment, sufficient life experience, meticulous observation and irreproducible artistic creativity.
If a director wants not to be abandoned by the times, he must sink his heart to experience, explore, and observe this era with a cold eye.
Wu Xiaozu's biggest cheating is not the vague memory in his head. His biggest golden finger is that his sense of the times is not limited to the 80s and 90s, and he has a wider grasp of the pulse of the times than others...... Accumulate deeper.
On the drawing board, white doves spread their wings, choirs are singing, and men with black stick figures are dancing openly, and the whole painting is full of pomp and paradox.
Next to this portrait, the pencil outlines infinite shadows, and a stick figure man emerges from the darkness, staring at him with a pair of abrupt eyes behind him, a metaphor for responsibility and responsibility.
A giant "X" separates the two paintings, creating a unique balance.
Below, a vampire-like man holds a gorgeous pistol and confronts a handsome man with a heavy face. Side eyes, one unscrupulous, one heavy sorrow.
This simple painting, Wu Xiaozu painted for six hours. At his feet, countless paper balls were spread all over the ground, and half-length pencils were scattered all over the ground.
“……”
Liang Jiahui walked into the room, the manuscript paper all over the floor made it difficult for him to get off his feet, and he proudly picked up a paper ball, and two men sat there and stood there in the folded white paper, looking at each other.
The man sitting there was star-eyed, handcuffed and shackled.
The man standing was holding a bouquet of flowers, the corners of his mouth were raised, and his legs were twisted in a t-shape.
Behind one back was painted with pencil shadows, and behind the other was an iron fence, and a beam of light was struggling to get in.
This painting makes Liang Jiahui's heart tighten, and the strong contrast between the two people in the painting constitutes a strange balance. Losing any of them, the painting will appear unbalanced and abrupt.
"Huh, what's the point?"
A smile sounded in Liang Jiahui's ears, and the drawing paper in his hand was suddenly withdrawn, and then he came back to his senses.
"This is the story of the duel between the two heroes you told?" Liang Jiahui scattered a cigarette and handed it to Wu Xiaozu, but he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Wu Xiaozu hand him a few pages of dense information.
"Character background information, you take it to perfect. Wu Xiaozu said.
"So good to me?
"Your opponent should be Zhou Yanfa. ”
Wu Xiaozu staggered over and patted his friend's shoulder.
Liang Jiahui turned his head over, looked at Wu Xiaozu's eyes, smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth, and raised the information in his hand, "How much time do I have to prepare?"
"A month ......," Wu Xiaozu added, "I need to determine the filming location and communicate with the crew and actors. ”
Liang Jiahui tightened the information and nodded with a bright smile.
A good actor must have strong self-confidence and pride.
Recently, the media have all been one-sided with Xiao Ma Ge who holds fairy hair is the best candidate for the 6th Best Actor. As everyone knows, Liang Jiahui also dedicated a "Lin Guoyun" that far surpassed "Xianfeng".
If you talk about the excitement of the role, Lin Guoyun is not inferior to Brother Pony!
"By the way, the room is in trouble for you. Wu Xiaozu, who walked out of the door, suddenly turned around, pointed to the mess in the room and said to himself, "I don't know if Sister Jiahua will come back and see you tossing the room like this......" Speaking of this, she threw a self-seeking look at Liang Jiahui to give encouragement.
“??”
Liang Jiahui looked at the messy room, thinking about how quietly he took the other party to his house to create, this rushed to eat him, slept with him, and framed him before leaving......
Liang Xiaoyan couldn't wait to carry a knife to hack this one to death.
In the past few days, in order to "recuperate" and improve the new play, Wu Xiaozu deliberately went to Liang Jiahui's side to hide in Qingjing.
Jiang Jiahua led Su Liyao to look for an office building during this time.
1024 Locomotive Film Studio was originally located in a tea restaurant, but now it is naturally not suitable.
Whether it's a film company, or any other type of company, as it grows, the corporate framework needs to be really built.
The grass stage team of 1024 Locomotive Film Studio naturally cannot be regarded as a formal enterprise.
Taking the accounting of the box office in the local and foreign cities as an example, this work requires special financial personnel to be responsible. Publicity, finance, and production are all the most basic departments in themselves, but before that, the corporate nature of 1024 Locomotive Studios will not be much more advanced than that of the street food stalls!
In addition, now that there are two new popular stars under its umbrella, Luo Yijian and Zhou Huimin, it is inconvenient for Wu Xiaozu to continue to nest in the tea restaurant at 1024.
Wang Xianxian, who is bent on coming up with an album, has a very loud voice every time he practices in bed at night.
You can't rent a clock hotel every day, right?
Therefore, with a selfless wave of his hand, Grand Duke Wu Xiaozu approved the 1024 locomotive to move out of the Longcheng Ice Room.
Wu Xiaozu determined that the theme of the new play is the "double hero" type.
The film setting of the confrontation between the two heroes belongs to an immortal monument in the history of Hong Kong films! This setting has made great contributions to many mainstream commercial films in later generations.
Every film director will have their own unique film style and philosophy.
Wu's personal style of space, positioning, camera, and aesthetics of violence is evident in all three films. Even if he transforms into "Crazy Boy", you can vaguely see this kind of shadow.
Therefore, Wu Xiaozu simply returned to this kind of black humor movie that he was good at handling and played a violent confrontation with a big cast.
Any director will have his own areas that he is good at and what he is not good at.
A person like Wu Xiaozu who is so rational that he is cold-blooded can't really derive that kind of nonsensical comedy.
The accuracy of self-perception is also one of the points that Wu Xiaozu surpasses others.
……
Daiei Films.
Workers removed the "Daiei" signboard and reinstalled a plaque called "Shadow Jie Film Company". The golden company sign is particularly dazzling.
The front desk is still the front desk, and the boss is still the boss.
Boss Deng framed Wu Xiaozu but failed, and stopped for a while. This month, I ran back and forth in Wanwan and Aomen. "Crazy Boy" is down, and he has just returned to Hong Kong.
The first thing he did when he came back was to cancel the "Daiei Film Company" and re-register a film company called "Shadow Jie".
The signboard of "Da Rong" stinks on the street, and when everyone mentions Da Rong Film Company, they can't help but think of "Brother Salty and Wet".
Luo Liang and "Shengbao" relied on the gimmick of "salty and wet homo", and they really circled a lot of "fandom".
In order to avoid trouble and eliminate the impact, Boss Deng also changed his vest and reopened this "Shadow Masterpiece Film Company".
With his past connections in the entertainment industry, he has made a lot of investments in Wanwan and Omenla, and now he is a lonely young woman who wants a child......
In the office, Hou Xiaoyuan, who had lost a circle, stood on the sofa money, holding a storyboard in his hand, and turning the pages of the speech-
"Under the rapidly changing urban wave, family, friendship, and love have confused moral judgments, and the crazy pursuit of material things continues to subvert ethical standards.
The grievances of family, underworld, and school collide with each other, resulting in confusing entanglements. These are all the youth and memories that belong to young people. ”
Hou Xiaoran gushed about his creative intentions, when he showed that he was the main creator of "Crazy Boy", and at the same time filmed a film about the theme of urban youth and youth, and the play also involved underworld elements, Deng Guangrong waved his hand to invest without thinking about it.
Nowadays, who doesn't know that "Crazy Boy" is a gold mine to be developed, as he knows, many independent film companies have already approved no less than a dozen films about the "Crazy Boy theme".
This tide is as turbulent as the tide of zombies, gunfights, and strange cases!
He has heard the name of Hou Xiaoamath in Wanwan, and he is one of the new generation of directors in Wanwan. At the same time, this guy is also the executive producer of "Crazy Boy". With this kind of qualification, it is worth Deng Guangrong's investment.
"My movie is the same as "Crazy Boy", there are also comic ......" Hou Xiaoyuan remembered that Wu Xiaozu told him to speak honestly, and hurriedly said, "My story was born from the Japanese comic "Daughter of the Nile" ......"
"Director Hou, investment is absolutely fine. You can make a number-" Deng Guangrong's heart was overjoyed, and he looked at Hou Xiaoamaranth as if he had seen a peerless treasure. This is clearly its own cornucopia and cash cow!
Hou Xiaoamaran sighed in his heart.
Really!
Hong Kong Island filmmakers are truly passionate about movies!
Wu Xiaozu is a frank gentleman and does not deceive me.
Deng Guangrong has a vision, but it may be that he has been an actor for too long, and he observes a film habitually from the perspective of a filmmaker.
Looking at the problem from this angle, where will there be problems with Hou Xiaoyuan's script? Behind him is Zhu Tianwen, a gold-medal screenwriter. It's better than Wang sunglasses, right?
