For the issue of "Interview with Yang Yan" that Shen Lin participated in, the audience and the Internet have very good evaluations. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The TV is still broadcasting, and Shen Lin is still in an interview.

"I've always wondered, what the hell do you think, why did you suddenly run to make music when you're writing nearly five million words?"

Yang Yan's question is exactly what many people who really care about Shen Lin want to understand.

"Words are a kind of carrier, expressing the author's emotions, and so is music, the two have a lot in common, and I felt that my musical literacy was okay, and I could wear many hats, so I signed up for Happy Boys. ”

Shen Lin's explanation is a bit far-fetched, but it is also acceptable.

"Well, but you haven't released any new songs in Tianyu for three years, I'm talking about the songs sung, what is the reason for this?"

Yang Yan's question felt more and more acute.

"Let's put it this way, I signed a contract with Tianyu after I participated in the competition, and the company promised me that I would help me release two albums, and then for some reason, we broke up unhappily, so I went to the United States..."

"Can you ask what's going on?"

"In many ways, because I've always insisted on taking the original route, and the company gave me an original singer, but they wanted me to be good at singing and dancing, which was too much for me because I didn't like dancing. In addition, I was a little young and vigorous at the time, and the songs I wrote contradicted their line, and after arguing with the supervisor a few times, I was slowly left out in the cold, which can also be said to be hidden!"

"Snow hidden?"

"It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that it is hidden, but I did not receive any requests for music in months. ”

"So you went to the United States? Did you go to the United States to relax?"

"It wasn't entirely distraction, but I wrote a few novels according to Western reading habits, and I had to find someone to translate them into English, and I had to negotiate with the publisher about publishing. ”

"Novel?

"The Hunger Games and Dark Fairy Tales"

"I heard that both of these books have been adapted into movies?"

"That's right, I wrote these two novels in the direction of adapting movies, which can be regarded as satisfying my own ideas. ”

"What about Lionsgate? I heard you're still a shareholder of Lionsgate?"

Yang Yan asked with a smile.

When she received these news, she was shocked and a little excited at the same time, this is all selling point!

Lionsgate has always wanted to make blockbuster movies, and they took a fancy to my The Hunger Games, so I offered an equity exchange, and they didn't agree at first, and I helped them write two more TV series, and they agreed. ”

"I'm impressed by your talent, aren't you?"

"Hehe, you can say the same!"

"Can you ask about those two TV series?"

It seems that Yang Yan's understanding is not very comprehensive.

"'Madmen' and 'BreakingBad' and 'TheWalkingDead' that I've been writing recently"

""Madmen" and "BreakingBad" were written by you? Wow! You are so powerful! You may not know that "Madmen" translated into Chinese is Mad Men, as for BreakingBad, Breaking Bad, it is the top ten American dramas in the United States!"

"It was all luck, Lionsgate wanted to work with AMC at the time, and I happened to have a work on it, so it was a natural fit. ”

"Then it's not easy for you, you must know that the United States is a very exclusive country, and you can actually break into the top 10 production companies in Hollywood! At least I can't do it!"

"Hehe, let's talk about the rest. ”

By this time, the discussion on the Internet had spread to the major forums.

Many media also changed the instant news to "Shocking, the screenwriter of the American drama is actually Chinese"

"Has anyone watched Breaking Bad? I've been following the show!"

"I didn't expect our Linzi to be so powerful, so much so that we all thought that he Jiang Lang was finished!"

"Is this a Raptors crossing the river?"

"Optimistic about Linzi sweeping the Oscars!"

"The stupid upstairs doesn't explain, the Oscars are movie awards!"

"I'll go, let's linzi, is this the rhythm that wants to dominate the world?"

"This is the protagonist mode, Scarlett Johansson, Angelina Jolie are waiting for Linzi's favor!"

"I don't understand what is being said upstairs, I'm still young!"

Well, the building is crooked again.

Back to TV.

"Let's go back to the movie itself, as you can see from the trailer just now, are you very strict in terms of lines?"

"Well, there are requirements for this, but I don't deliberately say that there must be golden sentences or anything like that, because I deal with words myself, and I hate water words. ”

"Water words?"

"It's some unrelated subject descriptions, such as 'looking up at the starry sky at a 45-degree angle' and the like, my dad said when he taught me to write essays since I was a child, and the essay must have something to say!"

"Hehe, you seem to be deliberately hinting at someone just now!"

"No! Alas, you know that if you say too much, you will lose!"

"Then why did you choose a commercial film? According to our understanding, you are a writer, and you should take the route of literary films!"

"First of all, the investor of this film is not me, it is Guangguang Media, and I must ensure that the investor's money is not spent in vain! Second, I don't particularly appreciate literary films. What our generation accepts is the success or failure of the box office, no matter how profound your work is, if it can't be sold for money, then I can't accept it!"

I once interviewed Wang Xiaoshuai, and he said that the most important thing in making a movie is to be sensitive. No matter what happens on the outside, the heart must be fragile and soft. There must be a strong sense of anxiety!"

Yang Yan didn't seem to agree with Shen Lin's view.

This is also a common problem of their generation, they like to talk about their feelings, and they like to shoot some events that expose the bottom of society.

"How can I say it, I am first and foremost a best-selling author, how can I ensure that every book is a bestseller? I must study the psychology of book lovers, I wrote "Those Years" and "The Best of Us" to go to the youth market, and later wrote "Notes on Tomb Robbery" because I think we lack adventure novels; directors, especially the current Chinese film directors, must be down-to-earth, the so-called down-to-earth is to understand the audience's thoughts, since your film has entered the theater and sold for money, it must conform to the public aesthetics!"

Shen Lin's answer was very rational.

"But aesthetics is not necessarily fashionable is beauty, this is all for a while, and in the end, the aesthetics that can really stay are always pure, very rational, and elegant, rather than just temporary high-tech or things like killing Matt. ”

Yang still insists on his own point of view.

"I agree with you, but I reserve my opinion. When a director makes a movie, the first thing to consider is the cost, if you can't even make back the investor's money, then you must be a failed director!"

"Then you mean to say that the works of Xiao Shuai and their generation are all failures?"

"No, Sister Yan, don't confuse the concept, a failed director and a failed work are two different concepts. ”
