Section 375: Negotiation (II)

After Du An saw his words, the smile on Zhou Xingchi's face gradually relaxed, and the smile in his eyes gradually disappeared. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because of Zhou Xingchi's consistent work style, such an additional contract can be said to be very rude to him, and the reason why he hasn't left is also because after a series of foreshadowing, his acceptance of Duane is already very high at the moment, if Duane makes such a request at the beginning, I'm afraid he will leave immediately.

Because he didn't have to talk about it, he had to have a say in Zhou Xingchi's movie.

In the eyes of people who hate Zhou Xingchi, he is domineering and unreasonable, after all, there are many big names in the entertainment industry, but everyone is a job that abides by their duties, and it is really the only one who interferes with him to this extent and arouses many people in the circle;

But in Duane's opinion, he was just insecure.

The insecurity here is not to the extent that the crowd is prevalent, but it is a higher level. If the general quantification of the insecurity of social groups is 5, then the degree of Zhou Xingchi's insecurity is 20, or even higher, which is already pathological from a psychological point of view.

From the perspective of psychology, a person from a poor family without a stable living environment and a person who grew up happily in a wealthy and stable family have a large difference in the ratio of their demand for a sense of security when they grow up.

Zhou Xingchi's strong need for a sense of security is caused by his unstable living environment since childhood, especially the divorce of his parents, which aggravates his thirst for security, which leads to his need to intervene in the production of movies and see the movies develop in the best direction he wants, which can make him feel safe. Especially Zhou Xingchi has actually started doing this kind of thing since he was a small person - of course, not as exaggerated as it is now - and his genius has made his ideas and opinions really have an effect and help make the movie better, and he has tasted the sweetness more dependent on this model, and his intervention has indeed made the movie better, so it keeps snowballing, which will lead to today's situation.

And Duane must stop this snowball today.

"I disagree. ”

After the silence, this sentence came out of Zhou Xingchi's mouth, but Du An's did not produce the slightest frustration - Zhou Xingchi immediately said "I agree" Then there is a ghost.

And instead of being frustrated, his heart began to jump unconsciously.

He had experienced many negotiations, but this was the first time in a particular case like this one.

He is now facing a person who has difficulty in negotiation because of psychological problems, for such a negotiation object, he must not only think from the perspective of negotiation, but also from the perspective of psychological medicine, and the combination of two factors may be able to win the other party, which is exactly in line with his professional background - graduated from medical school with a major in management.

Since graduation, it is the first time he has encountered such a case that is completely aligned with his major, and he can't help but have a kind of psychology of "finally being able to show what he has learned", no wonder he is secretly excited.

It's like a peerless master who puts the opponent down every time he makes two random moves, and he is still happy once or twice, but after a long time, he will inevitably be lonely and bored. Then he finally encountered a hard bone that required him to use all his skills and didn't know if he could win it, so he was finally excited.

Then he spoke, and his words came out unexpectedly.

"If you don't agree, forget it. ”

After Du An's words came out, Mr. Zhou's eyes were obviously stunned, obviously he didn't expect that he would say such a thing.

He probably thought he was going to chase him and try to convince him, right?

Du An's didn't seem to care if Zhou Xingchi would join their crew, and after the communication was fruitless, he gave up directly and changed the topic: "I've been fascinated by Mr. Zhou for a long time, it's rare to see you this time, I have too much to say to you, I don't know if Mr. Zhou minds chatting for a while?"

When Zhou Xingchi heard this, he had no choice but to say, "No problem." ”

Du An immediately said: "To say something offensive, in fact, I grew up watching your movies, from "The Saint of Gambling", "The Gambler", to "Wu Zhuangyuan Su Qier", "Jigong" ......"

Du An's performance at the moment is completely like a fanatical fan, eagerly confiding in his idol his love for each other, this fan is still a heavyweight who has won the Huabiao Award for Best Director and has just broken the box office record, this strange feeling is probably only experienced by Zhou Xingchi himself.

“…… What I admire the most is your attitude towards making movies, although I haven't worked with you, but it is not difficult to see from the movies that you are very serious about making these movies and telling these stories, your exaggerated expression is just your appearance, seriousness is the real core of your comedy, and I think this is also the most essential difference between your comedy and other people's comedy - others are funny for the sake of being funny, you don't want to be funny, you just seriously want to tell a good story, this is really funny. ”

As the topic gradually shifted to the professional field, Du An's eyes saw that the impatience in Zhou Xingchi's eyes gradually decreased, and his body gradually sat upright, especially after his words just came out, he was even more attentive, and even finally asked: "Why?"

It's really not easy to wait for him to speak, no wonder all reporters are afraid to interview him, it's true that three sticks can't beat a stuffy fart, which can make people collapse, but fortunately, Duane has a good psychological quality.

Du An did not answer Zhou Xingchi's question, but asked him: "Why do people laugh?"

Zhou Xingchi was stunned for a moment, obviously unable to keep up with Du An's brain circuit, so he thought about it seriously, and then said: "Because I saw others doing some idiotic things." ”

"Mr. Zhou, you're right. ”

"Many people have made their explanations for this problem, and I accept two kinds, one, when people encounter an unexpected situation, they will laugh, and then when they find that the situation is safe, they will laugh, the simplest example is when you throw a child into the sky, he will not laugh, and when you catch him, he will laugh; When you catch a cockroach and cry as exaggeratedly as if you were a dead relative, the audience will laugh because they think your behavior is mentally retarded, and they have a psychological sense of superiority, so they laugh. ”

Zhou Xingchi nodded slowly thoughtfully: "Oh......"

"A lot of people make comedy just to grasp the second point, they think that just doing something idiotic is enough, is this comedy? Yes, this is comedy, but it's not enough, because the audience doesn't get nervous, and the two-point complete comedy effect will undoubtedly go to the next level. And how does the nervousness come from? There are many ways, and one of the ways is that you shoot the story seriously, shoot it seriously with the attitude of shooting a drama, and go to the idiot ...... seriously."

As Du An spoke, he saw Zhou Xingchi's expression becoming more and more focused, which was exactly what Du An's wanted.

To put it bluntly, in fact, Du An's really thinks that Zhou Xingchi is a genius, he may not know a lot of theoretical knowledge, even in the process of work, he has been exposed to some theoretical knowledge, but in general, his comprehensive system theoretical knowledge is probably not as strong as that of a Chinese opera director graduate, but he can rely on his own talent to shoot the desired results - this is like he knows that 1+1 is equal to 2, but he doesn't know why it is equal to 2, he is a pragmatist.

Of course, at this moment, in Zhou Xingchi's heart, he may probably think that he is a genius, right?

After all, it's so professional, and it's also a practical theory, and it's hard to grasp both hands.

As Du An spoke, Zhou Xingchi finally couldn't help but join the discussion.

"What do you think of The King of Comedy?"

"From a comedy point of view, "The King of Comedy" is actually OK, but a movie is not enough with jokes, it is a sketch, not a movie. "The King of Comedy" is not commercial enough in the main line, and the overall context is like a calm lake, almost filming a commercial comedy with the rhythm of a literary film......"

"Do you have any tips for breaking records in Liberation Day?"

"The trick is of course, the first is to make movies with heart, and the second is marketing, which can't be ignored now. If Mr. Zhou had handed over "Kung Fu" to me two years earlier, maybe it would have been able to break the record......"

……

The step-by-step pre-measures prevented Zhou Xingchi from leaving immediately after he raised a dispute, and the subsequent conversation implanted his professional image into Zhou Xingchi's impression - this kind of major is not the kind that the academic school just talks about but does not practice, but a real and practical major that has been tested by the market in both commercial and artistic aspects, and it is more convincing.

These are all things that Duane did.

For Zhou Xingchi, he does not lack the ability to operate the movie, what he lacks is a theoretical explanation, he is like rushing forward with instinct on a correct road full of fog, the direction is correct, but because he can't see the road clearly, he is inevitably afraid. He also tried to enter the academy to study, and did learn something, but the poor cultural foundation coupled with the shackles of age and work made it difficult for him to understand some deep theories, what he could do was to make this layer of fog as thin as possible, and Duane helped him completely clear this layer of fog and help him see what he wanted to see.

In Zhou Xingchi's heart, his professional image of Duane is probably gradually firm.

While the two chatted, Du An finally heard the sentence he wanted to hear the most from Zhou Xingchi's mouth.

"Artistic Depth...... What is it?"

Duane's expression did not change in the slightest, but the left and right feet under the table were intertwined from separate and juxtaposed, and the right foot was placed on top of the left foot.

Zhou Xingchi's question may be described in another way - how to win the Huabiao Award?

This is the question that Duane has been waiting for. (To be continued.) )
