Chapter 157: The Problem of Idols

There are many rumors about this youth idol director in the industry, one of which is about Xu Xinlei's seriousness. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It is said that Xu Xinlei is very serious whether she takes the movie or makes the movie herself.

When she takes over the film, she must first familiarize herself with the script, if she is absolutely not satisfied with the script, she will never take on such a role, once she takes it, she will understand the role very seriously, and then according to her own understanding, she will discuss with the screenwriter and director to revise the script very seriously, until the script completely meets her opinion, or the director convinces her, she will not start acting.

Therefore, the directors love and hate Xu Xinlei. What I love is that every role she plays is indeed very successful, and can often add a lot of color to a movie or TV series, and what I hate is that she is very serious about the script, and if she is not satisfied with it at all, she will argue with the editor and the director. Therefore, the script of the role she plays often has to be revised many times, which makes the screenwriter and director very headaches.

After she became her own director, she took her seriousness to the extreme, whether it was the script or the actors, she would personally ask about many details, and she would only start filming after she fully met her requirements, and before the start of filming, the script would be revised again and again, even if she was not satisfied with the plot, even if she would exceed the budget, she would abandon the unsatisfactory part and reshoot the script.

This is the reason why Xu Xinlei only directs one movie a year - because she is too serious.

Hua Ming saw Xu Xinlei's seriousness this time.

In order to meet this newcomer who has not yet confirmed the role, Xu Xinlei's whole day was arranged for Hua Ming, she said that every actor in the movie she made needs to be carefully understood.

Xu Xinlei began to communicate with Hua Ming.

She's really, really serious. Her words do not have the shelf of a big-name star or a big-name director, and she will not give people a sense of domineering, but she will not give people a feeling of enthusiasm.

Her words are like a pool of clear water, very plain, even a little boring, but also very gentle, just like her clear and elegant temperament. Hua Ming felt that even if he was crazy, he couldn't go crazy in front of Xu Xinlei.

"Hua Ming, I have watched your videos and blogs, your appearance and talent are very good, I called you over this time just to get to know you better, so as to arrange a suitable role for you." Xu Xinlei's words are very straightforward.

"Okay, director, what do you want to know?" In front of Xu Xinlei, Hua Ming's tone turned out to be calm, and he felt like he had been brought into that atmosphere by her.

"You are younger than me, just call me Sister Xu. What are your thoughts on basketball-themed movies? Xu Xinlei first asked Hua Ming to call her Sister Xu directly in an unquestionable tone, and then avoided Hua Ming's question and asked him directly.

Hua Ming hesitated. He always felt that his thinking was enough to jump out, but he didn't expect Xu Xinlei's jump to be no weaker than him, and he didn't even say a few words after meeting, so he asked such a big question, how can Hua Ming answer it?

You must know that Hua Ming is now a newcomer and knows almost nothing about movies, and he feels that this movie may be a huge opportunity for him, and he really doesn't want to miss it.

How do you answer that?

Hua Ming is also keenly aware that in front of Xu Xinlei, according to her serious character, maybe those polite and ambiguous slippery words seem to have no effect, and the effect may be just the opposite.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Hua Ming spoke: "In my opinion, if this movie is purely based on basketball, it may be relatively niche, and the market will not be very large." ”

There is a reason why Hua Ming dares to say this. In his previous life, there were also some inspirational sports movies, but these movies, no matter how hot the concept was, always ended dismal at the box office.

"Oh, why do you say that?" After Hua Ming said that, Xu Xinlei's interest seemed to be aroused, and her tone didn't seem to be so flat.

"Let me give you a simple example. I just played in our school's Freshman Cup basketball tournament. It stands to reason that most of our classmates should be present to watch such a formal competition, but in fact, if it is not organized by someone, basically no one will watch it. This is because, although basketball is a popular sport, the proportion of people who really like basketball among students is not high, and even fewer people are obsessed, and girls are almost even rarer. Hua Ming directly expressed his own personal experience.

"Oh, that's right." After listening to Hua Ming's words, Xu Xinlei pondered.

Hua Ming sat quietly, Xu Xinlei didn't speak, and he didn't bother her.

After half a ring, Xu Xinlei asked again: "Then according to you, how should this basketball-themed movie be made?" ”

This was a bigger question, Hua Ming couldn't help but lift his head and fall into thought.

This time, it was time for Xu Xinlei to sit quietly and wait for him.

"In my opinion, Sister Xu, since you are famous for youth-themed movies, the theme of this movie might as well be based on the theme of youth love, but it would be good to lean part of the content to basketball." After a while, Hua Ming spoke tentatively.

"Oh, doesn't that greatly dilute the theme of basketball?" Xu Xinlei asked.

"How to say it, it's like forcing a child to go to an interest class that he doesn't like, forcing it has no effect, and if you don't like it, you don't like it. But if you say that you are taking him to play, in the process of playing, you will be exposed to a little bit of interest in the content, so that subtly, it will achieve more ideal results. After thinking for a moment, Hua Ming used another example to explain his opinion.

Xu Xinlei thought for a moment, suddenly patted the arm of the chair, and said loudly: "Okay, this idea is good, just do it." Let's go, I'll invite you to dinner, and we'll talk while we eat. ”

It seems that Hua Ming's words woke up the person in the dream, Xu Xinlei's appearance at this time actually revealed an excited expression, and her tone was no longer flat, and she seemed a little enthusiastic.

Xu Xinlei's attitude towards Hua Ming really seems to have changed her attitude, and when she was eating, she was much more enthusiastic and took the initiative to talk to Hua Ming about this movie.

Only then did Hua Ming know that his somewhat risky opinions really helped Xu Xinlei solve a big problem unintentionally, making her jump out of the strange area of the stereotype.

Obviously, Xu Xinlei's attitude towards Hua Ming at this time is no longer to treat a newcomer who comes to audition.

Is this a bigger opportunity for Hua Ming?
