Chapter 424: Ratification

Lin Xiaoling's application to make a film in a women's prison was approved, with several conditions attached. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Scenes that damage the image of the prison must not be filmed, plots that smear prison guards must not be filmed, normal order of the prison must not be affected, and prison guards and prisoners must not be used as extras.

During the filming, you need to cooperate with the supervision of the prison staff and obey the arrangements of the prison.

If the film violates the above conditions, the film will be banned from being released and distributed in China, and the director of the film and the film company involved will be punished accordingly according to the severity of the situation.

These conditions are fairly normal.

Lin Xiaoling was not surprised, she did not intend to smear the image of the prison, just to make the film more realistic.

In Hollywood or Xiangjiang, prison-themed film and television dramas are quite common, basically reflecting the dark side of prisons.

Either the prisoners are treated unfairly, or the prison guards are corrupt and bribery, or the violence in the prison is displayed, or the highly intelligent prisoners are plotting to escape, and so on.

As a place where criminals are imprisoned, a place that everyone is not familiar with, this kind of subject matter is easy to arouse the interest of the audience.

Come to think of it, so many criminals who are involved in the criminal department are very prone to conflicts when they stay together.

This is the reason why Hollywood likes to make this kind of film and television series, violence and crime can make the audience feel nervous and exciting.

But in China, don't even think about it, this kind of theme is a forbidden area.

This time, the General Administration allowed Lin Xiaoling to enter the prison for on-site shooting, one is that the script is good and the story is quite positive.

There are also public service announcements that play a big role, and the General Administration feels that this film can promote the policy of treating prisoners in domestic prisons, so that prisoners who behave well on parole can get the opportunity to go home and reunite with their families, which is a kind of human touch in itself.

After the film is made, it can be shown to the inmates in the prison to play a role in ideological education.

With the permission of the higher authorities, Lin Xiaoling immediately formed a crew, auditioned for actors, and prepared to direct her second film.

There are not many main actors in "Going Home", there are only five roles, the female prisoner Tao Lan, the female police officer Chen Jie, father Yu Zhenggao, mother Tao Airong, and one character is the dead Yu Xiaoqin.

The names of real people will not be used in the movie, and family relationships will be adjusted accordingly, but the story is similar.

Xu Jinglei and Liu Lin play prisoners and police officers respectively, and the father and mother are looking for two veteran actors around forty years old.

As for the character of Yu Xiaoqin, there are not many scenes, just find a student who studies acting in an art school.

Judging from the script, the first 30 minutes of the film tell the story of 1980, focusing on the contradictions and conflicts of this remarried family and explaining what happened.

Therefore, it is necessary to reproduce some scenes of social life in the capital in the early eighties, which is where the crew mainly spends money.

After these thirty minutes, the plot of the next hour is all a story from 1997, and live shooting is fine.

Lin Zixuan, who served as the producer of the film and controlled the financial expenditure of the crew, was worried that Lin Xiaoling was inexperienced.

An investment of two million is not much, but it can't stand spending indiscriminately.

The problem of novice directors is that they want to shoot everything well, but they overspend, so they can only stop filming and look for funds everywhere, and the shooting plan is disrupted, making a mess and difficult to end.

Jiang Wen's filming of "Sunny Day" is the best example of the opposite.

Lin Xiaoling has filmed "The Two of Us", but the film with an investment of only 300,000 yuan does not prove that she has the ability to control the crew.

Lin Zixuan personally sat in charge to ensure the smooth progress of the film, and the crew members did not dare to make trouble in front of him.

That's why new directors often look for a strong producer or executive producer who can ensure the quality of the film on the one hand, and on the other hand, these people can control the scene.

In the film "Going Home", Xu Jinglei's salary is 100,000 yuan, Liu Lin's salary is 80,000 yuan, and the salary of his father and mother is 50,000 yuan, which is the price of making literary films.

If it is an entertainment film with an investment of more than five million, the actor's salary will be higher.

Before filming, Xu Jinglei and Liu Lin had to enter the women's prison to experience life and come into contact with prison guards and inmates.

This needs to be accompanied by prison officers, for half a month, mainly to feel the atmosphere, this film does not have many scenes in prison.

Xu Jinglei finished filming "Love to the End", and this 20-episode TV series is confirmed to be broadcast on Huaguo TV next year.

This drama can be broadcast on Huaguo TV, not only because of the good cooperative relationship between Lin Zixuan and Huaguo TV, but also because of what the drama itself shows.

This is not a simple youth idol drama, it fits the dilemma faced by college students in this era.

It puts forward such as the employment difficulties of college students, the psychological quality education of college students, the confusion and confusion of life, the pursuit of love and youthfulness, and the struggle and struggle in the career.

It shows the work and life of young people in an all-round way.

The actors in the play are basically acting in their true colors, and their performances are slightly immature, which is why they can resonate more with young people.

Huaguo TV values the positive spirit of hard work, and each character can return to the right path of life after some struggle and make their own contributions to the society.

Compared with "Love to the End", "Latent" is not so lucky.

Huaguo TV has concerns about the broadcast of "Latent", they have to consider the impact of this TV series, as a national TV station, the first thing to think about is to be stable and not make mistakes, rather than pursuing novelty and adventure.

This has always been the policy of Huaguo Television.

The drama "Latent" will premiere on Jinmen TV next year, and several TV stations in the south have purchased the broadcast rights.

The reason why Jinmen TV is willing to take over "Latent" is because this TV series tells the story that takes place in Jinmen.

Due to the high investment, "Latent" has not yet paid for itself.

Lin Zixuan is not in a hurry, and after the first round of broadcasts, I believe that more TV stations will come to the door.

At this time, Lin Xiaoling found Lin Zixuan and put forward the idea of changing the script.

"I wanted to change the script and put the time for the prisoners to go home during the Chinese New Year, which is a day for family reunions, and it is more meaningful for the prisoners to go home at this time. Lin Xiaoling proposed.

1997 is almost over, and in a month it will be Chinese New Year's Eve.

Lin Xiaoling felt that filming a prisoner's way home in the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year would have a different meaning.

"Isn't that deliberate? Lin Zixuan pondered.

"Yes, but the effect should be better, and it will easily resonate with the audience. Lin Xiaoling explained, "In particular, the lively atmosphere of the Chinese New Year can be in stark contrast to the situation encountered by the prisoners after they are released from prison." ā€

"Well, this is your movie, you make a decision. Lin Zixuan responded. (To be continued.) )
