The most important element of Oldboy's success is truth, not the truth of the story, but the truth of the emotions. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The high school days described in the original version, although many of the plots are seriously exaggerated, distorted and abstracted, but that feeling, that feeling is real. And the reality of real life in the second half of the story gives the story the power to move people's hearts.

Therefore, when Lin Yi is preparing to shoot "Old Boy", he must retain these advantages to the greatest extent, and then modify and supplement some regrets and omissions in the original work, so as to create a better work.

After careful consideration, Lin Yi revised two aspects of the original script, on the one hand, the production level, to use a professional team, using high-definition cameras to shoot, in order to change the original overly grassroots production level - grassroots is not equal to low-end, even if you want to be grassroots, you must also be ginseng roots!

The second aspect is to replace the actors. The original version is that the chopsticks duo starred in all the plots including the high school days and later, but the poor old faces, where is there a little bit of youth and vitality in the student days? Not to mention that the acting skills of these two guys are really problematic, and they are not cheap enough, but they make people laugh when they play deeply.

However, considering that these two have a good advantage, that is, they are old enough to be grassroots enough, and Lin Yi's impression in his previous life, Lin Yi decided to let them continue to play Xiao Dabao and Wang Xiaoshuai as adults, and let them sing the theme song. The actors in high school are all young people for a new interpretation.

This time in Beijing, Lin Yi's important goal was to find those two chopsticks!

Although the two chopsticks are not famous at this time, they are not pink newcomers. As early as two years ago, the two began to get involved in the shooting of online short films, but they were both created in the form of music videos, music is their focus, and short films are MVs with plots and no lines. The two music short films that have been created so far have also caused a little bit of a stir.

Therefore, Lin Yi easily found the contact information of Xiao Yang and Wang Dali through the oil depot.

"You two are my predecessors, I have seen your "Male Geisha" and "Where Are You", and I personally like "Male Geisha", hehe. ”

In a café in the South Third Ring Road of Beijing, Lin Yi met these two uncle-level Internet rookies.

"You are too polite, our film can't compare with your filming of "Never Expected". Xiao Yang smiled, "Wan Wan is the most hilarious online short film I have ever seen. ”

"Hehe, let's stop flattering each other. Lin Yi smiled, "I'm young and don't like to be polite, so I'll get straight to the point." Today, about two of you, I would like to invite you to participate in a new film that I am working on. ”

"Oh, isn't it 'Never Expected'?" Xiao Yang said.

"No, your style doesn't quite match "Wan Wan", and most importantly, as far as I know, the chopsticks group is a musical group, and "Wan Wan" does not have musical elements. Lin Yi said with a smile, "What I am preparing is a micro-film, which is expected to last about 50 minutes, interspersed with several songs, which can be regarded as a short music film." ”

Xiao Yang and Wang Dali glanced at each other, and their eyes lit up.

Xiao Yang and Wang Dali themselves position themselves as musicians, not actors. The purpose of making short films is more to promote their music. Now that someone invites them to participate in the production of musicals, of course they are happy, which is a recognition of their musicianship.

"Here's the outline of the script, you can take a look at it first. Lin Yi said and took out two script outlines and handed them to the two of them.

The outline is very simple, just listing the main story line, but it indicates the location of many pieces of music in the whole play, and additionally indicates the content style of the music to match the storyline.

"Are these songs ready?" asked Xiao Yang.

"The theme song is ready," Lin Yi smiled and took out two sheet music, "However, the theme song is my adaptation of the Hijima song, and the refilled lyrics have not yet been authorized by the original author......

At present, the domestic copyright awareness is not strong enough, not to mention the copyright issues involved in refilling the lyrics of foreign songs, even if the songs of domestic singers are covered, no one has ever cared, Xiao Yang and Wang Dali don't care, they just pick up the song sheet and read it.

However, Lin Yi knew that this song written by them became popular all over the country overnight, but it could not be used in any commercial performances due to composition copyright issues, and finally had to be put into the cold palace.

Lin Yike doesn't want to end up like this, after all, although this song uses the original song, the content and artistic conception of the lyrics are completely different from the original song, what really makes this song popular is that the lyrics of the new score occupy a larger proportion. Therefore, Lin Yi hopes to win the Chinese adaptation rights of this song in advance, anyway, the adaptation rights will not cost a few dollars, but if the chopsticks duo perform commercially with this song in the future, they will make a lot of money!

"This, this...... This song is really great!" Xiao Yang shouted, and the slightly introverted Wang Dali was also excited, and his fingers kept beating on the table, and he couldn't wait to sing it aloud immediately.

"Who wrote these lyrics?

"Hehe, just write nonsense. Lin Yi took a sip of coffee and smiled shamelessly.

"What you wrote is so powerful, no wonder you can shoot such a popular online drama as "Never Expected", what a talent!" Xiao Yang shouted.

"It's over, hehe," Lin Yidao, "According to the script, there will be at least three title songs in this film, that is, the three songs sung by the two protagonists when they participate in the talent competition." In addition, there are several interludes to prepare. However, the interlude does not have to be original, and you two experts can help recommend a few when the time comes. Let's talk about these three original songs first, and I hope to leave them to the two of them to sing. ”

"Let's sing?" Xiao Yang and Wang Dali were excited.

"Yes," Lin Yi said with a smile, "In addition, the roles of the two protagonists when they become adults are also played by the two of you, is there a problem?"

"This, this ......" Xiao Yang and Wang Dali looked at each other excitedly, not knowing how to answer, although they were both sure that the other party wanted to agree to the project.

"Well, you don't have to answer in a hurry, you can go back and think about it first. Lin Yi said, "This time I will stay in the capital for three days, and you can give me an answer before I leave." By the way, if the two of you are willing to perform this micro-film, you will also have to sign a brokerage contract with our company, and the specific salary and contract treatment, let's go back and talk about it in detail......"
