Chapter 439: Face Life
readx;? After "A Sigh" was released, Feng Xiaogang relaxed and wanted to rest for a while. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
This does not mean that he will stay at home to rest at 13 and stop working in the company, but it means that he is mentally relaxed, he doesn't have to think about so many things every day, and he has time to chat and chat.
Family problems cannot be solved overnight, but slowly.
Feng Xiaogang is an idle person with a lot of interesting ideas in his head, and he chats with the creative staff in the company to turn these ideas into stories.
These stories may one day be made into a movie.
As the leader of Good Dreams, Feng Xiaogang is quite concerned about the development of the company.
On the project "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", both Han Sanping and Wang Zhongjun felt that Lin Zixuan was too big and too risky.
But there are no different voices within the company, first of all, everyone communicates well.
When he first started writing "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Lin Zixuan told Feng Xiaogang and Ge You about the overall plan, and at that time they felt similar to Han Sanping, thinking that this step was too risky.
Lin Zixuan said Let's come step by step, and we'll see it when the time comes, which makes them mentally prepared.
In the past few years, from martial arts novels to TV series, and then to using "Spring in a Small Town" to make Yu Feihong well-known in the European film industry, and negotiated with Li Yu about filming, the whole plan went on step by step.
So far, everything has gone quite smoothly and is in line with their expectations.
It is the only way for Haomeng to develop and grow, take the international route, and shoot commercial blockbusters.
This investment of 25 million to participate in the production of a blockbuster film is a valuable experience, whether it succeeds or fails.
Secondly, Lin Zixuan's past success gave them confidence, although it cannot be said that they blindly believe in Lin Zixuan, but before Lin Zixuan failed, they had no reason to doubt.
In the end, the three of them have been friends for many years and know each other well, and this trust is still there.
Besides, Lin Zixuan is worth a lot of money, as a best-selling author, he earned tens of millions of royalties last year alone.
According to rough estimates, Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan's total assets exceed 20 million, not including the courtyard house they live in, the restaurant they invest in, and other intangible assets.
For example, the signboard of "Shanshan Interview" is worth five million.
Although Ge You is a top actor in China, with a high income from filming and advertising, his output is not high, he does not know how to invest and manage money, and it is estimated that he only has tens of millions of assets.
Feng Xiaogang's income source is mainly movies, in addition to the director's salary and the share of the movie box office.
In the box office of 25 million in "A Sigh", Good Dream Company can get 8 million, and Feng Xiaogang gets 1 million.
Through the film and the company's dividends, Feng Xiaogang's total income over the years should be more than 7 million.
It can be said that all three of them are middle-class, and basically they don't worry about money.
Even if "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" really loses, it can't shake their foundation, so compared to Han Sanping and Wang Zhongjun, the leadership of Haomeng Company is quite calm.
As for Yu Dong, he is excited to be part of this international collaboration.
Now that Lin Zixuan has made the decision to shoot "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", he just needs to seriously implement this plan, every film project has risks, and no one knows if he will lose money until the end.
"Titanic" was not optimistic at the beginning, and even the film company was ready to go bankrupt, but what about the result.
Let's just say that anything is possible.
In the past two days, Feng Xiaogang went to the crew of "Going Home", and according to him, it was to see how literary films were filmed.
As a halfway director, Feng Xiaogang's directing techniques were half learned in the crew, and half were figured out by himself.
From TV series to movies, he has integrated a set of his own things, which have been successful in making entertainment films, but he does not have a deep understanding of literary films.
"A Sigh" is more devoted to his own experience, so the shooting is vivid and vivid.
Zhang Guoli said that Feng Xiaogang couldn't make a literary film but Zhang Yimou, which is very true.
After the Chinese New Year, Lin Xiaoling filmed the 1997 scene in "Going Home" almost completely.
The prisoner Taulan's return to the house causes new family conflicts.
Seventeen years have passed, and the family still has not escaped the effects of the events of that year, and none of them have come out of the shadow of the past.
All these years the stepfather wanted to move out before Tao Lan returned, and the mother wanted her daughter to come home on the one hand, but on the other hand, she didn't know how to face her daughter when she returned home.
It is not only Taulan who is in prison that has been left behind by this era, but also her parents outside the prison.
Tao Lan's return to the home breaks the fragile balance of the family, and the three of them are in conflict and embarrassment, not knowing how to get along.
The appearance of the policewoman resolved this embarrassment, and in order to thank the policewoman for sending Taolan home, the mother Zhang arranged dinner and maintained the normal operation of the family.
It seems that only by getting busy can life move forward without stagnation.
This scene in a closed space is the most testing of the actors' acting skills, and the state between Tao Lan and her parents is both tense and subtle, and there is a lot of room to play.
The female policeman played by Xu Jinglei acts as an outsider, playing the role of mediation and lubrication.
This is the key to the whole drama, and only when it is filmed well can it infect the audience, otherwise it will be a failure.
Lin Xiaoling still adopts a calm and objective shooting method, as if she is standing on the sidelines and watching what is happening in this family, without any subjective color, and does not participate in it.
The camera only plays the role of recording, and the cold lens reflects real life.
Feng Xiaogang watched from the sidelines, and could feel that this was different from his way of shooting, he liked to add laughter, anger, and personal feelings to the film, and really immersed himself, and his film director was very involved.
Zhang Yimou's literary films will not be filmed like this, in the fifth generation of directors, Zhang Yimou is a person who pursues romance and passion, he will not be so realistic, and there will still be some dramatic things.
Lin Xiaoling's shooting method is a technique commonly used by the sixth generation of directors, facing life and watching calmly.
If Feng Xiaogang came to film this scene, he would arrange some coincidences to resolve the family's conflicts.
For example, the stepfather found out that he had wronged Tao Lan at the beginning, and the five yuan was not stolen by Tao Lan, but stolen by his own daughter, which made the stepfather feel guilty and forgive Tao Lan.
If it is Zhang Yimou, he will set off everyone's heart through the colors of the room decoration, and his camera is not to watch, but to shoot the inner world of the actor.
In Lin Xiaoling's story, Tao Lan finally knelt in front of her stepfather and admitted that she had stolen the five yuan.
In order to let her stepfather let go of the burden of the past and untie the knot, she is willing to keep this secret for Yu Xiaoqin.
After seventeen years in prison, it doesn't matter who gets the five dollars, what matters is that the family needs to start living again, and they still have a long way to go in the future. (To be continued.) )
