Chapter 410: Hero Huo Yuanjia
The next day, Yang Ming called to communicate with Zheng Wen and learned that the uncle was still in retreat to work on the script, which made him feel painful.
It's been a long time, and the script hasn't been all out yet, and it's still being revised.
Zheng Wen wants to make this movie, Yang Ming has seen the script of this movie before, it is a pure art film, without a trace of the connotation of a commercial film, according to Zheng Wen's consistent bird nature, it must make the vast majority of the audience fall asleep when it is filmed.
Therefore, at that time, Yang Ming proposed to Zheng Wen to revise it, and it was a big change, he did not necessarily ask Zheng Wen to add elements of commercial films, but it must be understood by the audience!
Audiences come to the cinema for relaxation and entertainment, not to listen to your preaching.
The current situation of Chinese films is similar to that of the previous life, either they are shoddy money-making movies, or they don't know the so-called art films, they are completely two extremes, even if there are some movies in between, most of them are nondescript, and painting tigers is not anti-dogs!
On the contrary, the response of some urban comedy films is not bad, but this type of movie, although it is full of praise among the public, but in the eyes of those film professionals, it is not on the stage, this kind of urban comedy type of film, even if the box office is good, will not be favored by those movie awards.
This situation has made many movies feel sad.
But the vast majority of the movies that satisfy the judges of those film awards are disliked or even disgusted by the audience, and in the eyes of the audience, these movies are simply incomprehensible.
What lens language, what picture meaning, for them, there is no need at all, there is no meaning at all.
A movie that you can't understand, a movie that makes you feel sleepy, will win a big prize.
This is really incredible for countless viewers
Now, Yang Ming requires Zheng Wen to make a movie that the audience can understand, at least when the movie is over, they know what the movie is about.
Since Zheng Wen followed Yang Ming to shoot two popular idol TV series, the principles he has always adhered to, although he has not wavered, his views have changed.
He still remembers that Yang Ming once said to him: judging the quality of a movie, what the judges say doesn't count, what the audience says.
The ultimate purpose of a film is to enter the market for the audience to see, not for the judges to appreciate the so-called artistic value that the public does not understand.
Therefore, now Zheng Wen is thinking about the script of the movie he is going to make now, and after being rejected by Yang Ming last time, he revised it more carefully, and he was not anxious about how much time he had.
Anyway, he has been waiting for so many years, and he still cares about this time.
So, he has been working on this script alone, trying to revise it to perfection.
Yang Ming called to ask Zheng Wen for a while, and he was relieved, to be honest, he was still looking forward to Zheng Wen's movie, after all, he won the Golden Dragon Award for Best Director, and Yang Ming did not steal from Zheng Wen in the two TV series that he cooperated with.
Zheng Wen's control of the camera is absolutely masterful, no worse than any well-known director in the current entertainment industry, if it weren't for the previous obsession with art and misunderstanding, he would definitely not be so miserable.
Through the call, Yang Ming is now relieved, looking forward to what kind of script Zheng Wen came up with in the end?
Since it has been decided to film "My Sassy Girlfriend", and the male and female protagonists have been 'decided', the next thing is much easier, and the crew has arranged for Yang Ming to arrange others to do it.
Originally, the assistant director was going to choose Lao Chai, but now that Lao Chai's daughter is sick, it is estimated that she will have surgery, and because the company has been banned by the TV station during this time, the company's recruitment work has not been smooth.
Yang Ming thought about it and asked Mo Xiaohua if he was interested in being the assistant director of his movie.
As soon as Mo Xiaohua heard Yang Ming's construction, he immediately jumped up excitedly, patted his chest and shouted loudly, which startled Yang Ming, you must know that being an assistant director is not a good job.
Basically, all the chores, hard work, and tiring work are all done by the assistant director, and in the end, the film was shot and succeeded, but the applause and flowers all belonged to the director.
And Mo Xiaohuatong guò has two idol TV series that are popular all over the country in succession, and he is already a well-known new and well-known director in the film and television industry, and even some entertainment companies outside have contacted him and want to spend a lot of money to poach him.
But he didn't agree, and now he is willing to give Yang Ming as an assistant director, which surprises Liu Xinsheng and Sister Zhu and the rest of the company, which is a bit of a self-defeating identity.
Others don't understand, but Yang Ming can still guess a little.
To be honest, the reason why Mo Xiaohua has his current achievements and status is inseparable from his own efforts and talents, but the script that Yang Ming gave him and the platform provided by the company are a large part of the factors.
In the entertainment industry, aren't there many talented and hard-working rookie directors?
It can be said that everyone in the entertainment industry knows that the director is the most difficult to get to the position, and there is no one.
A rookie director with no qualifications wants to get investment and make a film, just such a small progress, how difficult it is for a rookie director.
For this opportunity, countless new directors have worked hard for decades before they get the opportunity to hold the camera many years later.
Wasn't Mo Xiaohua the same before?
In the entertainment industry, the pressure of competition is too great, and he gives up the opportunity to take charge of the microphone and goes to advertise.
If it weren't for the script given by Yang Ming, and the very bold delegation of power to let him be the main crew, how could Mo Xiaohua rise to prominence in the entertainment industry so quickly and make himself famous.
Sometimes, the platform that can give new directors autonomy is more important than the opportunity, and of course, Yang Ming provides a script that is destined to succeed.
Now, Yang Ming mentions Mo Xiaohua as his assistant director, for Mo Xiaohua, this is not only an opportunity to 'repay his kindness', but also an opportunity for him to step into the big screen in the future.
Needless to say, Mo Xiaohua's gratitude to Yang Ming in his heart is naturally needless to say, and he also sees an infinitely bright future in Oriental DreamWorks, here, he can get the biggest platform to show himself, and the company is also stingy with resources cultivation for him, with such a good environment, how could he choose to jump ship to other film and television companies?
Other film and television companies can give sky-high salaries and certain shooting funds, but they can't give classic scripts and the right to completely control the crew.
Therefore, Mo Xiaohua never thought about leaving Oriental DreamWorks in his heart, and now that Yang Ming asked him to become an assistant director again and further contact with the opportunity to a bigger stage, how could he give up!
Besides, Yang Ming is Mo Xiaohua's Bole!
The director of "My Sassy Girlfriend" is Yang Ming himself, and the assistant director is Mo Xiaohua, but Yang Ming still feels a little uneasy when he thinks about it, he and Mo Xiaohua both have experience in running the microphone, but that is relative to the TV screen and the movie circle, they are still novices.
Yang Ming felt unsafe, so he asked Liu Xinsheng and Sister Zhu to find another assistant director, an assistant director with experience in film shooting.
The following is the problem of crew preparation and casting of other character actors, but these problems are not big, as long as the director and the leading actor are decided, there will be no big problem with this movie.
After all, this movie is a small-budget movie, and the scenes and technologies involved in it are not big problems.
After a busy day in the company, Yang Ming didn't return to the students, so he drove back to the yard, and the company was too busy in the past two days to catch the wind and wash the dust for the master and the two senior brothers.
But today, the senior brother Fang Zhengming also came to Yanjing.
"Hey, senior brother, when did you come to Yanjing!" As soon as Yang Ming entered the gate, he saw that Senior Brother Fang Zhengming was talking with his master.
"Hehe, junior brother, I haven't seen you for a long time!" Fang Zhengming said with a smile on his face when he saw Yang Ming, and then he directly said the purpose of coming to Huaxia this time, "I came to Huaxia this time to open the Wuji Martial Arts Gym!"
"This is a good thing!" Yang Ming's spirit was shocked, he had been busy recently, and because he was entangled in a lawsuit some time ago, he almost forgot about this matter, so he hurriedly asked.
Fang Zhengming also told Yang Ming in detail about the process of setting up the Wuji Martial Arts Gym in Spain during this time, according to Yang Ming's previous plan, the Wuji Huaxia Martial Arts Gym launched its own martial arts hierarchy system, as well as the same costume and ritual packaging to improve the image of Chinese martial arts.
As soon as it was launched in Spain, it was an immediate success.
Of course, this is also inseparable from the fact that the Wuji Martial Arts Gym itself has a certain history in the local area, and the black senior brother contributed to it, and the black police senior brother asked all his police officers to go to the Wuji Martial Arts Gym to learn martial arts, and it happened that during this period, he encountered a case of street robbery.
The police officers under the black brother used the newly learned Chinese tricks to capture the enemy, just in time for a reporter to film it and be broadcast on TV, attracting countless followers.
At this time, the black brother faced an interview with reporters and told the news that their police force participated in the Wuji Martial Arts Hall to learn martial arts.
As a result, the Wuji Martial Arts Gym has become completely popular in Spain, and now three martial arts halls have been opened, and the progress of the shape shì is very gratifying.
Therefore, when Spain had certain achievements, the elder brother Fang Zhengming couldn't wait to return to Huaxia and discuss the opening of the museum in Huaxia with the master and Yang Ming.
After all, a martial arts gym that teaches Chinese martial arts, if there is no martial arts hall in Huaxia, it is really unreasonable.
In addition, Fang Zhengming also asked Yang Ming for the next promotion plan, and before, Yang Ming's various plans and methods formulated in the Spanish Martial Arts Hall have proved that this approach is completely correct.
"Zhengming, this matter is not in a hurry, Huaxia is not as good as foreign countries, and opening an apprenticeship in Huaxia is not such a simple matter as renting a place to get a signboard. Yang Hua touched the beard on his chin and said slowly.
"That's what Master said. Fang Zhengming nodded yes, although he has been staying abroad, he is no stranger to the domestic martial arts community.
If you want to open a museum in Huaxia to teach apprentices, you must go to the local museum in the traditional way first, so that people can admire your strength before you can open the museum, otherwise you will wait for others to kick the museum endlessly.
Yang Ming also knew this kind of inside story, but according to his original plan, he first wanted to promote the name of their Wuji Martial Arts Gym through a TV series or movie, and then open the museum after having a name.
But recently, he was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, so he forgot about it.
Even, he remembered the abbot of Shaolin Temple who often called him some time ago, and kept reminding him not to forget to help promote the Shaolin Temple.
"Senior brother, why don't you wait, wait until I get a TV series or movie that promotes our Wuji origin?" Yang Ming couldn't help but say when he thought of this.
"Oh, let's hear it. Fang Zhengming was interested, and Yang Hua's eyes lit up, staring at Yang Ming.
Although Yang Hua and Fang Zhengming have not been in contact with the entertainment industry, Yang Ming's identity and his ability to turn stones into gold in the film and television industry have been heard of, and this plan has been mentioned by Yang Ming once before.
So, Yang Ming said the plan in his mind, won the approval of the master and the senior brother, agreed to Yang Ming's plan, postponed the opening plan of the martial arts hall, and waited for Yang Ming to get out this film promoting the ideology and culture of Wuji martial arts, and then consider opening the museum.
After a while, when Xiang Jin and Liang Zhidan came back, after hearing that Yang Ming was going to make a film with the theme of their Wuji, Xiang Jin was okay, he was not very interested in the film and television industry.
However, Liang Zhidan is not good.
filmed a "Smiling Proud Jianghu" with Yang Ming, in which he got a supporting role with few lines, plus served as a martial arts instructor for a period of time, Liang Zhidan's yearning for the entertainment industry became stronger and stronger.
Therefore, when Liang Zhidan heard that his junior brother was going to make a martial arts movie about his own martial arts hall, he immediately entangled Yang Ming and wanted to play an important role in it.
When Yang Ming saw this scene, he felt funny in his heart, but he didn't say it in his mouth, he asked Liang Zhidan not to worry, and wait for the script to come out.
Hearing this, although Liang Zhidan settled down, at the next dinner table, he still looked at Yang Ming with resentment from time to time, which made several other people laugh.
After dinner, Yang Ming returned to the study and began to think about what kind of film to make in order to achieve the purpose of promoting Wuji culture.
For a while, he couldn't think of any clue, Yang Ming couldn't help but light a cigarette and began to slowly sort out his thoughts.
The culture of Wuji martial arts, he knows very well, is boundless and endless!
However, this connotation is very empty if expressed through the guò picture, and it may not be liked by the audience.
What is the biggest purpose for the audience to choose to watch kung fu movies? It is definitely for the sake of having a good fight! Not to listen to what martial arts culture and purpose you have to talk about.
In the previous life, there were many big directors who wanted to make art martial arts movies, and they wanted to embody the Confucianism contained in Chinese martial arts, but they were all failures, and the audience watched it and scolded more than once.
With such a bloody lesson, Yang Ming certainly couldn't try to take this path again.
Otherwise, he would be the same as the "Wuji" in his previous life, a bloody case caused by a steamed bun.
Since we don't talk about martial arts culture directly, how can we arouse the audience's interest and make them resonate after watching the film?
Yang Ming frowned, and couldn't help but start thinking about it in his mind, he couldn't help but recall those classic martial arts films in his previous life, and thought of those classic films that were more enjoyable to watch and could make people's blood boil.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he thought of a classic film, oh, or the classic TV series "Hero Huo Yuanjia"!
After this classic TV series was introduced to the mainland, in addition to the relatively 'pleasing to the eye' martial arts design at the time, what resonated most with mainland audiences was the national hatred and family hatred contained in it.
Although Huo Yuanjia was finally killed by the Japanese, it also scandalized the Japanese in another aspect, and also made the audience feel indignant and completely attracted by this TV series.
However, because of the great changes in history, since the beginning of the Xin Chou year, the founding great man overthrew the Qing Dynasty in one fell swoop, established a new country, taught the Japanese a hard lesson, and severely overshadowed the Japanese during World War II, until now the Japanese are in the hands of Huaxia.
The tragedies and misery brought to China by Japan in the past life have not been staged in this life.
Therefore, the hatred of the Chinese people for Japan in this world is not as strong as in the previous life, if this TV series is filmed, I don't know if it can reach the kind of Cheng dù that resonated with countless people in the previous life.
After all, the history and environment of this life are completely different from those of previous lives.
Yang Ming's head was big, and in his upset, he couldn't help but look at the webpage and look at the news.
"The Japanese Prime Minister will visit China in the near future, and I heard that he will discuss the garrison with my country!"
There is nothing new in this news, Japan was completely controlled by China after World War II, and naturally the Japanese garrison monitored the country's every move, but after decades, a country was garrisoned by others, and no one could stand it, so over the years, Japan has been seeking to let China withdraw its troops.
Of course, this attitude is very humble.
This kind of thing is not impossible to consider for Huaxia, after all, it costs a lot of military spending to garrison troops in Japan every year, but Japan's position is too important, and Japan has been hooking up with the United States in the past few years, and they have forgotten who is the master.
Therefore, the Huaxia military has always been unwilling to let go of the matter of withdrawing the garrison, and the Japanese side has figured out that the Guò government has opened up contact with the Huaxia military.
There is this news.
Yang Ming didn't pay attention to this news at first, but when he saw the comments under this news, after watching it for a while, he paid attention to it in his heart, and filmed this "Hero Huo Yuanjia".
Because of the comments below, he felt that the people had not forgotten the shadow of the naval battle because of the shame of the Qing Dynasty's Xin Chou year.
"Nima, little Japan is starting to be restless again, I want to teach you a lesson!"
"Yes, the original lesson is not enough, the scars are good and the pain is forgotten!"
"The Treaty of Xinchou, shame, although this treaty was annulled by the great man, it is still a shame......!"
Most of the comments under this news are not in favor of the military withdrawal, because of the humiliation brought about by the "Xinchou Treaty" signed by Japan and the Qing Dynasty a hundred years ago, and the impact is too strong.
It is because of this treaty that the founding greats will choose to rise up and overthrow the Qing Dynasty!
Although Japan has now completely surrendered to China, most people still feel uneasy, and in recent times, Japan has hooked up with the United States, which has made the Chinese people feel disgusted.
Seeing this, Yang Ming decided to shoot this "Hero Huo Yuanjia"!
