Chapter 414: Let Them Say Go

Filming is very hard, this is something that everyone with shooting experience knows, this industry looks very beautiful, but there is also countless sweat behind the scenery, especially those who take movies seriously, the drama is bigger than the sky, and you can't do this business if you can't endure hardship.

The interesting things that happened in the crew are full of fun under Huang Bo's description, this is Huang Bo's strength, his mouth is very slippery, his brain turns quickly, and his language is humorous, so he made Li Xiang and Teacher He laugh at the hosts, not to mention the audience below.

Zhou Bai also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it is definitely the right thing to take Huang Bo to a variety show, he is naturally suitable for this stage, even if the typhoon is still a little green now, he also performs remarkably, and every time he speaks, it can be hilarious.

"Director Zhou, we want to know what you think of Yuanyuan's performance, Yuanyuan told her that she was under a lot of pressure when she first joined the group, and she didn't want to talk to you?" asked Li Xiang.

"To be honest, I am very satisfied with Yuanyuan's performance, and I can say that she is on the right path. When she debuted, she was completely relying on her talent in acting, the performance was not honed enough, and the foundation was not solid enough, when I asked her to shoot "My Sassy Girlfriend", she had already made three movies and two TV series, and after different crews, she had accumulated a lot of experience, I just need proper guidance and let her play what she has learned. Zhou Bai said with a smile.

"Could it be that you are too strict, although you are not an actor this time, but you are an actor, even being a director will cause a lot of pressure on actors, Mr. He, you are right. Xie Na said, and Teacher He couldn't help but nod in agreement with Xie Na's statement after listening to it.

"It's really not that I'm strict, I'm very gentle when I talk to her in the crew, I'm afraid I'll break her down. In fact, everyone has pressure, you can ask Huang Bo, he also has pressure, but each actor has a different way of relieving pressure, like Yuanyuan, she entered the state a little later, so the early stage of filming must have been tormented, and when she enters the state, this kind of pressure is nothing. Zhou Bai explained, God is pitiful, when he was guiding Gao Yuanyuan to film, he really didn't dare to use a rough style.

"This is true, obviously sometimes Brother Bai is very angry, but he takes two deep breaths, and then squeezes out a little smile to talk to me, NG has not scolded me countless times, can you imagine, he is very angry, his breathing is very heavy, and he is forced to control it, in fact, I saw the twitching expression on his face at that time, and I was afraid that he would explode at any time, but fortunately, I have not been scolded very badly, I am really grateful to Brother Bai for this. Gao Yuanyuan said.

She was still happy while talking, learning Zhou Baidan's expression, her eyes were about to burst into flames and she was still in control, this Gao Yuanyuan's movements were learned, how cute she looked, and it also made the audience crazy.

"Wait, I don't know, I think I'm like this in your heart? I thought I had spoken to you very gently, and when it was over, my image was shattered. After Zhou Bai finished speaking, he covered his face and smiled bitterly.

"You don't call it gentle, in fact, it looks terrible, although handsome, but also scary, it's better to be a simple person like me, how safe. Huang Bo spread his hands and said, squeezing his eyebrows at Gao Yuanyuan.

"Hahahaha!"

"Zhou Bai, why do you want to be a director? How did you think of making such a romantic comedy movie in the first place?" asked Teacher He.

"Actually, there was nothing to do for a while.,I just had this book on hand.,I feel like the style isn't right for me to act by myself.,My friends around me told me that you should be the director yourself.,And then I became a director in a daze.。 ”

"As for why you shoot a romantic comedy, the main reason is that this type of movie is not difficult, in fact, strictly speaking, this is a youth romance film, in terms of lens application and picture selection, you can follow the production rules of commercial films, so it is a book that is more suitable for practice. Zhou Bai told the truth, he didn't say that he was lofty, and he chose this movie because it was suitable for practice.

Filming "My Sassy Girlfriend", Zhou Baizheng didn't have any so-called artistic ambitions, nor did he think about making any breakthroughs in audiovisual language that no one had done before, he just wanted to tell a good story in a down-to-earth manner and shoot a movie with the rules of commercial films, that's all.

"When you say this, we feel that you are picking a topic that is not very difficult when you are choosing your homework, can you understand it in this way?" said Teacher He.

"That's right, I know how much I have the ability to make a very difficult art film, if I want to make any breakthroughs in audiovisual language and film structure, I don't have this artistic accumulation, I can make a genre film well, I am very satisfied, at present, I think that making commercial films to the level it should be is worthy of the audience. Zhou Bai admitted frankly that he couldn't control art films in terms of directing skills.

"Then aren't you afraid that some people will say that you are willing to fall?" asked Li Xiang.

"Let them go, I don't think there's anything wrong with telling the story well, in fact, I think that at present, our domestic films, art films are undoubtedly going fast, whether it is in color, structure, audio-visual language, these film language discussions, there are very good performances, but in genre films, it is really difficult to find a few directors who can tell a story smoothly, so if this kind of pragmatism is a self-depravity in the eyes of others, then I really have nothing to say, let them say go. Zhou Bai shrugged indifferently and said lightly.

Since the mid-80s, in terms of art films, China has undoubtedly advanced by leaps and bounds, Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou, Xie Fei, Jiang Wen, Zhang Yuan, Tian Zhuangzhuang, these masters or once approached the master level, not to mention, in recent years, Wang Xiaoshuai, Zhang Yang, Gu Changwei, Jia Zhangke, Lou Ye, these people, none of them are very outstanding art film directors.

But in terms of genre films, the domestic film industry looked around for a week, and I really couldn't find a few with my fingers, and it can even be said that except for Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang, I haven't seen a few people who can drum up and understand commercial films, compared with art film directors, genre film directors are undoubtedly more scarce.

"I have always felt that the pursuit of art is of course a glorious and great thing, but the soil for the survival of art must not be ignored, we are precisely a large number of filmmakers who have neglected to cultivate the market, which has caused the domestic film market to become more and more deformed, it is time to put our eyes back on the market and shoot more excellent commercial films, this is the top priority. Zhou Bai sighed and said helplessly.
