Li Qian said a little messy, and even later, his tone was a little excited, but it didn't matter, whether it was Lu Lingxi or Chen Kefang, they were all interested in movies since they were children, and then they started their professional studies at the age of ten or twenty, and since then they have been engaged in related education work, about movies, the history of films, The current situation and future development have their own thinking and judgment, so it doesn't matter what Li Qian said, if it is important, one or two sentences are enough, and the important ideas are actually only in that direction. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

For an expert-level practitioner like the two of them, it is not a lie.

In fact, what Li Qian said may not be all correct, his assertion that films must be based on market demand is also a topic that will often be discussed and mentioned in the domestic film industry in the past two years - with the fact that the market has been declining for two consecutive years, it is better than all eloquence, and even now, even if there are still many people who do not agree with this point of view, even if they are in their hearts, it is difficult to reject the commercialization, marketization and entertainment of films.

However, at least at the moment, in the present, whether it is Chen Kefang or Lu Lingxi, it is the first time they have heard such a description from a person's mouth-

The domestic market is huge! The future will be even bigger!

We should not only consider our own one-third of an acre, but from now on, we should consider taking down the markets of Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia in the future!

This assertion is not surprising, but at least until now, no one has dared to say it!

At the end of last year, at a high-end tea party within the film industry, the great director Qin Wei was very pessimistic that this big decline in the domestic film market is estimated to take at least 15 to 20 years to recover, that is, he judged that it will not be until 2012 or even 2017 that the domestic film market may break through the 8 billion box office mark again and return to the level of 1997.

It should be based on this assertion that Qin Wei's new film is said to have received funding from some Hollywood studios, and it is rumored in the industry that his new film plans to test the waters of international distribution, hoping to get a piece of the pie from the larger English-speaking market in his eyes.

What is even more pessimistic than his assertion is that in recent years, several major countries in Southeast Asia have been tightening the opening up of Chinese-language literary and artistic works in unison, and have instead given this opening to English-language works that are obviously of higher quality and are not likely to have too much impact on their own countries because of their geographical proximity and cultural similarity. Among them, Hollywood movies overwhelmed the declining Chinese films in one fell swoop, which is a very important piece.

For example, the latest policy from November 1998 allowed Singapore to import 20 foreign-language films for public screening in Singapore each year, but the quota for Chinese-language films was only five to eight.

However, in a country where Chinese account for nearly 70% of the country's total population, the official language is English. Therefore, English-speaking Hollywood movies are not subject to this limit.

Chinese movies, internal worries, external difficulties, wind and rain.

Against this backdrop, it's really hard for anyone to say something like that with enough confidence.

What's more, Li Qian hasn't even had a movie work until now.

…………

Li Qian said at length that the two teachers sat quietly, listening and thinking at the same time.

But in fact, there are still many emotions that Li Qian can't say, and they are destined to only be suppressed in their hearts for the rest of their lives, which they can't know.

For example, domestic movies in another time and space, such as regrettable Hong Kong movies.

At that time, Hong Kong films reached great prosperity in the 80s, at that time, Hong Kong films were marketed in South Korea, Wanwan, and even Southeast Asia were the backyards of Hong Kong films and Hong Kong entertainment culture.

However, the local box office base that a population of 6 million can have makes Hong Kong films greatly affected by the external market, and once the external market changes, it loses its foundation in an instant.

Instead, Hollywood blockbusters represented by "Jurassic Park" and "Titanic" swept Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia.

For all those who have understood and studied this period of film history in later generations, this is a story full of helplessness, and as for domestic films, it is even more ......

Of course, the domestic films in this time and space, whether it is the market base or the industrial base, are much stronger than the 2000 years in the other time and space, but in the face of Hollywood, which has completely completed the integration of resources at this time, and its production capacity and overall industrial capacity have been significantly ahead of the whole world, the gap between the two time and space seems a little insignificant.

…………

"This current trend of domestic films must be broken!"

"It is better for Hollywood movies to break it completely, than for us to break it ourselves in China!"

"If it's possible, I'm willing to work hard for it!"

…………

Unconsciously, Lu Lingxi held his cheek with one hand and looked at Li Qian fixedly. Between the eyebrows and eyes, there is a trace of appreciation that is not easy to be noticed.

…………

Talking and talking, it has changed from a lecture to a discussion.

Chen Kefang has been teaching for many years, although she is definitely not too old and her qualifications are not too old, but the fact that she can stay in the film school to teach already shows that she is by no means an ordinary movie lover.

So, her question was sharp-

"What do you mean by breaking, what is breaking, what is broken, and what is broken?"

"A lot of things, to break. Our country has a vast territory and a large population, and there are certain differences in accents and cultures in various places, so now in China, the phenomenon of regionalized movies is too common. A large local cinema chain, just two or three million to find a director to dare to make a film, and many of them are the kind of films with strong regionality, this kind of film is filmed, they don't expect to take out, they just show it in their own theater for a long time, sooner or later, they can always return to the cost, but this kind of film, the production is crude, and many of them contain a lot of erotic content, in the next market reshuffle, this pattern of shooting things everywhere for the locals to see, must be broken!"

"Of course, this kind of regional culture film is not without value, we can even encourage it to be made in the future, but it should not be this kind of shoddy production, this kind of film, in the face of the next inevitable Hollywood film industry crushing, will have no resistance, can only waste resources in vain. ”

"Zhao Meicheng's movies and Liu Chengzhang's movies actually have a certain degree of regional attributes, but the aesthetics in their movies are national, so Zhao Meicheng filmed the story of the north and Liu Chengzhang filmed the style of the south, but they both became big directors and sold well all over the country! This proves that movies of regional culture can be sold all over the country, for example, Zhao Meicheng can sell the official dialect of Shuntianfu to Guangzhou Mansion, and the people of Guangzhou Mansion can accept a lot of stalks, Zhao Meicheng likes to add some Wu Nong's soft language Suzhou Pingdan, and the people of Shenyang Mansion can also appreciate its beautiful beauty, so what about Sichuan, Henan dialect, or Cantonese, they are all good works!"

"Second, we have also made commercial films in China before, but what are our commercial films? It is a police film, an urban comedy, and those cheap martial arts, but anyone who is careful can notice that in recent years, Hollywood has mainly relied on to conquer the global market?

"I set up a special effects studio, the level in China, it's okay, "The Legend of the New White Lady" was filmed to advertise my special effects department, but compared with the level of Hollywood, it is still too far behind. Except for my special effects studio, there is no better special effects company in the domestic film industry at present! In addition, our digital photography technology is very weak, and we have to go to Japan to do the printing and copying, because the quality of the pictures made in China is not good. In short, film as an industry, our domestic foundation is too poor. ”

"Therefore, in my opinion, it is necessary to break the current market atmosphere in China that does not dare to make blockbusters and only thinks about investing in small money at the box office! Only when everyone invests in the feasibility of large returns can we really drive the development of the domestic film industry. ”

"Third, the theater chain is aging, and now the theater chain in many places is even backward enough to play movies on a loudspeaker, and there is not even the most basic stereo sound. You must know that many high-end theaters in the United States have been equipped with audio equipment with channels, and this avalanche of the film market seems to me to be an opportunity, just to save the good!"

…………

The three of them probably didn't expect that Li Qian's knock on the door would eventually turn into a nearly two-hour discussion--in fact, these thoughts in Li Qian's heart were gradually formed in the past few years of observation and understanding, but he himself felt that it was not complete, and then he was going to think while doing it, and he was ready to tell others these thoughts after a few years.

But in the end, I don't know what the reason is, he said his observations and thoughts on current domestic films in the past few years without reservation.

In the middle of the discussion, no one coincidentally interrupted, and the filming crew led by Sun Yuting over there didn't know when they had left.

Seeing that it was noon, Chen Kefang was talking about it, but Li Qian felt that after saying a lot of thoughts in his heart, the pressure on the whole person was a lot lighter, and his mood became very good, so when Chen Kefang proposed, "Let's go, let's find a place to eat, and then chat!" Li Qian, you are a rich man, you have a treat!", Li Qian responded without hesitation: "Okay, I'm in for a treat!"

So I ate, after eating, I changed to a café, and one person asked for a cup of coffee, and then chatted.

But chatting and chatting, Li Qian still didn't forget the original intention of his trip, so he reminded again and again: "Mr. Chen, you have been teaching screenwriting in the film academy for so many years, and there are countless good students and good seedlings that you have mastered, and we have been chatting for so long, you basically know what I plan, so you can help me check and pick a few good seedlings, right?"

There is no doubt that what Li Qian needs is the kind of screenwriter who has a solid foundation and excellent talent, but is not obsessed with a certain type or type of screenwriter.

They need to have the ability to create independently, and after a certain amount of tempering, they must have the ability to come up with works full of personal characteristics and thinking on their own, but they must also be able to adapt to the process of script production and writing, and the ability to contribute a certain aspect or some details to a script at any time.

This kind of talent is not easy to come across for screenwriters from Yeluzi, but it is not difficult to find for the screenwriting department of Suncheon Film Academy, which specializes in training screenwriters.

So Chen Kefang responded with a mouthful.

Then, she counted the wonderful students she had taught over the years.

is too good, especially those who have graduated for several years, basically have found suitable positions and jobs, or have joined large companies in the industry as contract screenwriters, or entered TV stations as directors, and even some have begun to run to attract investment and prepare to shoot their own movies, which is of course not easy to woo.

And the mediocre ones don't even take too long, three or five years is enough to eliminate them from the film and television circle. Don't say you can't find it, if you can find it, Li Qian won't ask for it.

But there are talents, but they are still in their arms, or they have not had time to shine in good seedlings, there are always some - two or three minutes of effort, starting from the 91 years when Chen Kefang began to teach, to the batch of freshmen who just entered in 99, there are already as many as a dozen names popping out of Chen Kefang's mouth.

Li Qian hurriedly asked the waiter for a pen and paper, and asked each person's name, class, personality, and specialties in detail, and if they had graduated for many years, they also asked them about their previous experiences in detail.

For any company that plans to make a difference in film and television, the script, and the screenwriter, are extremely important steps.

For Li Qian, there is no shortage of good stories and good ideas in his mind, but he doesn't have so much time to slowly create each work, and, to be honest, he is neither anything, nor does he carry a big hard drive with him, he watched a TV series with dozens of episodes many years ago, no matter how good he is, he can't remember all the stories. So for him, putting forward the synopsis of the story, and then throwing it to a group of reliable screenwriters to create collectively, and then taking it back for some revision, is a long-term feasible solution.

After all, in his plan, after accumulating experience, human resources and market credibility, the future of Minghu Culture will have a large number of works to shoot every year.

Therefore, in the future, only some scripts that he values very much, he will create them himself, and the rest will be entrusted to the screenwriters who signed into the company.

Therefore, if there is no accident, these people, Li Qian is going to find them in person, and then talk to them one by one.

The position is a contracted screenwriter of the Minghu Culture Film and Television Department, and the treatment is a high-tech and future box office bonus in the industry.

…………

From the time when Li Qian knocked on the office door a few hours ago and finally formed a big discussion, until now, Lu Lingxi has rarely spoken.

She was always listening, and thinking.

Except for occasionally turning her head to look at Chen Kefang, most of the time, she either looked at Li Qian or stared at the cup in her hand.

At this time, I can't help but look at Li Qian's words.

And it's a lot of interest to watch.

Li Qian's words are not too good-looking, before and after the two lives, his words can only be regarded as not ugly, after coming to this time and space, the traditional Chinese characters quickly adapted, there is no problem, but at this time, in order to quickly write down a large amount of content, the more sloppy the font is, the more it is naturally not seen.

After the two of them talked and wrote, Li Qian sorted out several pieces of paper and wrote down about a dozen names, and the "elite list" in Chen Kefang's hand was almost empty.

So Li Qian tidied up, holding a few pieces of paper full of scribbled fonts in his hand, his face was full of irrepressible excitement, and he took the opportunity to say: "Teacher Chen, there are a few senior brothers, I have to ask you to help me speak in advance!"

Chen Kefang replied with a smile: "No problem!"

So Li Qian showed a satisfied smile, took a deep breath, folded the paper in half, and put it in his pocket.

Finally, Lu Lingxi couldn't help but ask him, "Is this your dream?"

"Huh?" Li Qian was a little confused.

When he reacted, he subconsciously wanted to reach out and take out the information he had just recorded, but Lu Lingxi hurriedly waved his hand, "It has nothing to do with that, I mean, you two have been talking about those things for so long, you have to break a lot, you have to build a lot...... I mean, I mean, are those your dreams?"

Li Qian thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Yes." ”

Lu Lingxi nodded, her face was calm, and after a while, she showed a little smile, looked at Li Qian, and said, "Your dream is very good." (To be continued.) )
