Chapter 172 Unanimous opposition

Although several senior executives of Chang'an Film Studio felt incredible when they just saw the new script that Peng Yichen came up with.

They can't imagine and can't accept that a serious anti-war anti-war movie should be shot in a light-hearted and humorous comedy movie mode.

But when they patiently saw the ending of the script, the strong contrast and the profound display of the pursuit of happiness and beauty in human nature made them all speechless.

At this time, they finally understood why Wu Tianliang had to invite Peng Yichen to shoot this movie.

This young man's brain is full of wonderful imagination of movies, and his level is no longer beyond the reach of ordinary filmmakers.

Soon, the entire Chang'an Film Studio was up and running.

The old factory director fell ill on the set, the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Chinese army, and the Chinese audience's long-term disgust and rejection of the main theme movie.

The combination of various factors made the people in Chang'an Film Studio hold back their strength, and they must shoot the book written by Peng Yichen.

Because this movie means so many things to them.

In order to cooperate with the early publicity of this film, Peng Yichen also accepted an exclusive interview with the reporter of "Chinese Filmmaker Weekly" on the day of the film's launch conference.

And very cooperatively, I took several sets of photos in the studio of Chang'an Film Studio.

One photograph of him in a black suit and smiling next to the camera became the cover of the latest issue of "Chinese Filmmakers Weekly".

"The Future of Chinese Films!?", this is the title of Peng Yichen's interview.

The entire interview explores Peng Yichen's success, his mindset towards success, and his views on the future of cinema and the film industry.

"In the future, the threshold for Chinese film shooting will be higher and higher on the one hand, and lower and lower on the other. ”

Peng Yichen answered the reporter's question from the "Huaxia Filmmaker Weekly", he explained.

"The threshold for making movies is getting lower and lower because since the advent of DV cameras, mobile phones, and other very convenient and accessible tools for making movies, everyone has been given the opportunity to become a director; What's even more exciting is that in the past, a movie had to go through review, publicity, distribution channels, theaters, etc., before it could be actually released, but now with video websites and Weibo, movies shot by everyone, as long as they go through a simple review of the website, can be directly through the Internet for all audiences.

It is said that the threshold for making movies is getting higher and higher because with the improvement of film special effects technology such as imax technology and 3D, the production cost of commercial blockbusters will inevitably become more expensive. If the development of the quality of Chinese films itself cannot catch up with the expansion of the film market demand, then it may be occupied by Hollywood's special effects blockbusters. ”

In this interview, there is also some information about Peng Yichen's private life, and he also exposed for the first time his experience of running away from home and going to Wuzhou Film and Television Base to pursue his dream of being an actor after graduating from college.

However, what is more interesting in the interview is the information about his cooperation with Chang'an Studios again this time to shoot an anti-war film with the main theme.

Peng Yichen actually told reporters: "There are no large-scale war scenes in this movie, so the shooting speed is very fast, and it is expected to meet Chinese audiences at the end of August." And the film will be a comedy anti-war movie with happiness and joy as the main tone. ”

After this interview was published, fans throughout China were boiling.

On the day of the publication of Chen's interview, Jing Studio confirmed the matter on their newly established official website, Peng Yichen will cooperate with Chang'an Film Studio to shoot a comedy anti-war movie.

"When Peng Yichen announced that he was going to make an anti-war movie with the main theme, I was actually very happy in my heart. Because in my opinion, those terrible, cookie-cutter main theme movies in Huaxia in the past few years have made me start to dislike them. If Peng Yichen, a screenwriter who always surprises me, can create another classic anti-war movie, it will definitely be very exciting. But now that I've switched sides, this young man seems to be a little hot-headed, and he must be crazy to turn a serious, pathetic anti-war film into a comedy? ”

Fu Jiesi, a film critic for "Huaxia Film Times", shouted at Peng Yichen on his Weibo in an angry tone.

As a "die-hard fan" of Peng Yichen, Fu Jiesi has been supporting Peng Yichen since the release of "Twelve Warriors". But this time, it is obvious that he is not optimistic about Peng Yichen's choice.

Fu Jiesi's "mutiny" represents the attitude of almost all film critics and the media.

First, they questioned Peng Yichen's age, can a young man who is only 22 years old make the depth and deep understanding of human nature required to make anti-war films?

Second, an anti-war movie was actually filmed in a comedic way, and everyone thought it was just a hype method for sensationalism.

Only a few media outlets that have a good relationship with Huimin Film and Television have expressed their expectations for Peng Yichen's new film.

The reaction of the fans was even stronger, and Peng Yichen's loyal fans resolutely supported him, and they believed that Peng Yichen would surprise them again.

Wang Jiating, a female fan who has always been obsessed with his performance, left a message on Peng Yichen's Weibo: "When Peng Yichen's golden jade was released last year, everyone said that he was crazy and released a comedy movie in the Chinese New Year, but that movie is now the box office champion in China." This summer, when Peng Yichen's "One Man, Martial Arts" was released, some people said that an old-fashioned kung fu movie must not be as good as a Hollywood blockbuster, and now the box office of this kung fu movie and three Hollywood movies is almost tied. I believe that Peng Yichen's love for movies, his films will definitely not be just grandiose farces, he will definitely dedicate us to a classic anti-war movie. ”

Of course, there are also many fans who agree with the opinion of film critic Fu Jiesi: "Peng Yichen himself is just a child, how deep his understanding of the war is, not to mention that he is still making an anti-war movie shot in a comedic way." It seems that Peng Yichen was really carried away by the victories of the previous movies. ”

Whether these fans are optimistic about Peng Yichen's next movie or not, the attention and expectations for this movie are rising day by day.

Every day, a large number of reporters gather around the Chang'an Film Studio, hoping to get more information about this anti-war film.

This made Chang'an Film Studio, which had never experienced such a high level of attention, a little at a loss for a while.

Fortunately, Peng Yichen is also experienced in these matters.

He arranged a few strong field workers early to stand at the door of the studio every day to prevent these reporters from disturbing the normal shooting of the film.

And he himself didn't pay attention to these doubts from the outside world, he knew that whether a movie can succeed or not depends on the quality of the movie.

Only one film does its best in all aspects of shooting, editing, post-production, and publicity operations.

In the end, a classic movie can be achieved.
