Chapter 101: Youth Film
"Yes! Comedy, martial arts, action! But you're out of the way! Ning Hao shrugged his shoulders and said innocently.
Comedy has a broad mass base, and the cost is relatively small, so it is easy to make a big deal with a small one. Ning Hao's "Crazy Stone" is a very good example. Martial arts films and action movies are the representatives of domestic films, and they are also the two types of domestic films that are extremely outstanding in the world. The former is unique in China and can reflect the unique Chinese ideology and art. The latter is the result of the efforts of many filmmakers in Xiangjiang, even if special effects are prevalent now, but the action director still has to look at Xiangjiang.
To felt that the challenge was too great.
Movies are nothing more than a few categories, there is no technical basis for making science fiction films, and horror films are definitely rejected.
Romance films?
Nima, Zhang Zhao has already said that you can't hold hands or kiss. Can a romance film without holding hands, kissing and hugging still be called a romance movie?
"Du Shao, who is asking so much? It's almost impossible! ”
"Liu Wenqi! This movie is for Liu Wenqi. ”
"Oh~" Ning Hao suddenly laughed meaningfully, "I see! ”
"Laugh what a laugh! Not what you think. ”
"Isn't it?" Ning Hao smiled cheaply, "You are not allowed to hold hands, you are not allowed to hug, there are no kisses, what else can it be if it is not that kind of relationship." ”
Ning Hao mistakenly thought that Du Jiayi wanted to give Liu Wenqi a movie, and ate those jealousy, so he set so many requirements.
Du Jiayi glared at Ning Hao: "I'm not kidding you, I'm still far from Liu Wenqi's background, don't make people angry, otherwise you won't have a place to cry." ”
Du Jiayi mainly refers to the existence of Zhang Zhao. In two days, I have to show the script to Zhang Zhao, and when Ning Hao says something that shouldn't be said to make this master angry, Du Jiayi doesn't think he can stop Zhang Zhao.
What the hell is being filmed?
Du Jiayi kept recalling the movies he had seen in another world in his mind, actively shielded them from the subject matter, and selected the rest, and finally had a goal.
Liu Wenqi began acting in TV dramas at the age of sixteen, and was admitted to the Beijing Drama Academy at the age of seventeen.
The reason why she is a little goddess and not a goddess is only because of her age. After four years of college, she is only in her early twenties, which happens to be the best youth. Many well-known actors are still playing tricks and accumulating experience at her age. And Liu Wenqi was already famous in her early twenties and won a lot of attention.
"The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years"
This movie was flipped out by Du Jiayi.
It has driven the trend of movies in another world, and has made the category of youth films independent. This movie, which integrates memories and youthful love, has become an indelible piece in many people's memories. Of course, this is also a not very good start, no matter who it is, what profession, as long as it is a celebrity, they will start to be directors and make youth movies.
"Youth films?" Ning Hao didn't know what Du Jiayi said.
At this time, domestic youth films were a very unfamiliar word, and almost all the popular directors were of the older generation, they either took the literary route, or mainstream movies, praising the beautiful and great motherland, or war films. They will not touch on the topic of youth, because their youth is used in the upper, mountainous, lower, and rural areas, which means that when it comes to that time, it will definitely not pass the review, and it will be in vain.
Youth movies are particularly popular abroad, especially in the United States. But youth in America and youth in China are two different concepts. People's youth is wanton, basketball, football, pickles, sex, abortion/abortion, and even some young and frivolous illegal behaviors.
People are so strict, if you dare to pull in the kind of youth movies in the United States, you will definitely not be able to get by.
"Those Years" is a movie over there, with a large scale and a lot of sexual innuendo, which cannot be censored in China. Du Jiayi naturally would not be stupid enough to copy the original version.
In addition to this youth film in those years, there are many movies that can be used for reference, such as the movie "Youth Pie", which is closer to domestic students. This movie is more in line with domestic students than many youth films, learning is the main body, not playing music and dancing. Of course, the male protagonist's super high IQ and the school are too bullish are also a bit out of reality.
An ordinary school can get one-third of the first class, which is already a key class and an experimental class, and in the youth movie, the first can be more than half, and the entrance examination to the National People's Congress, Fudan University, Tsinghua University, and Peking University abounds, which is simply pulling hatred!
A hint of evil taste rose on Du Jiayi's face.
"Let's make a Chinese/characteristic youth film with no abortion, fetus, no dead people, no dog blood leukemia, youth, blood, dreams, and college entrance examinations that we have to talk about!"
Ning Hao seriously memorized Du Jiayi's adjectives.
"Seems to be quite difficult, huh?"
Du Jiayi glanced at Ning Hao: "Why did I recruit you if there was no difficulty?" ”
"This movie is going to be made for Liu Wenqi, and there is no cap on investment!" Du Jiayi squeezed his brows at Ning Hao, "How is it, are you interested?" ”
"No cap ?!!"
Sure enough, as soon as he heard about the big investment, Ning Hao's eyes were about to glow.
No matter how much "Crazy Stone" is promoted, it can't get rid of the label of a small-budget black comedy, and many critics are questioning Ning Hao's directing ability, especially his control over commercial blockbusters. Although a youth film is not yet a commercial blockbuster, the meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be taken step by step. Ning Hao really doesn't dislike the size of the investment, as long as he expands the investment a little bit every time and makes a few films, Ning Hao can also enter the top domestic director!
mobilized Ning Hao's enthusiasm, but Du Jiayi fell into contemplation again.
It was very contradictory to the protagonist of the youth faction in those years, Ke Jingteng was definitely a scumbag, if it weren't for Shen Jiayi's help and supervision, he would definitely not be admitted to university. And the young actor is actually a sixteen-year-old genius, because he took the risk to go out to see his girlfriend, broke his tail bone, and repeated it after the college entrance examination was abnormal, and then it was a process of bloody struggle, during which there were feelings, incentives and confusion, and finally gave up the original idea and went to the National People's Congress.
The span of those years was very large, the sense of time was very strong, and the youth faction was only two years, and a lot of it was the regret and youthfulness of youth.
It is a very brain-burning thing to want to combine two movies.
Wait a minute!
Du Jiayi suddenly thought of the most important thing, the real center of this movie should be the heroine, if the image of the heroine cannot be highlighted, Liu Wenqi will not participate.
The heroine of the youth school is subdivided a lot less, and the task image created is much weaker, and it is okay to change the person to act, and there is no specific temperament requirement. In those years, it was different, the heroine's role was very heavy, and she was more full in the shaping of the characters. If Liu Wenqi can play the heroine, then the title of the national little goddess will soon become a national goddess!
Based on the story outline of those years, some plots that do not conform to the domestic scale are replaced with plots in the youth faction.
"At the beginning of the story, the male protagonist attends the wedding of the female protagonist, and sits with several brothers from the original high school, laughing at each other about the troubles of the year. The male protagonist agreed that when the groom appeared on the stage, he must be embarrassed to punish him for chasing the female protagonist who was almost everyone's goddess back then!
When the heroine comes out, she is brilliant, pure and beautiful, like an angel! Time slowly rewinds back to the sunny high school days.
The male protagonist is a bad student.,Punished by the teacher for excessive pranks.,Sit in front of the good student female owner.,Monitored by her.,Under the supervision and encouragement of the female owner.,The male owner's grades are like sesame seeds blooming and rising.,Gradually,He also fell in love with Shen Jiayi, who had an elegant temperament.。
But the heroine didn't dare to confess to the girl she loved, because the heroine, who was liked by almost all boys, had an aversion to the boys who pursued her, and she just wanted to study hard and didn't want others to interfere in her life.
The heroine, who has never worked hard, has launched an unspoken pursuit of her. He accompanies the heroine to stay in school at night, and the two study together, progress together, and compete with each other. ”
As he spoke, Du Jiayi suddenly stopped.
"Later, you can write on regret."
"Hey~ This idea is very good, why don't you say it."
Du Jiayi shook his hand: "I have so much ability to make up stories, you have to write the rest of the things in the next two days, use it urgently!" ”
Telling all the stories actually destroys Ning Hao's recreation. With a new entrant, it is very difficult to combine the situation of the world.
In order to prevent the final script from being seriously out of reality, Du Jiayi just got up, and Ning Hao was responsible for filling the rest.
"As long as you grasp the theme of youth films, you can depict the regrets of youth, youthful feelings, efforts for love, and the ending that you can see."
"Give a first draft first, and the rest can be revised slowly." Du Jiayi said.
Ning Hao calculated the time it would take in his heart. A movie script can't just come out when it's spoken, and it definitely needs a lot of people to help fill in the lines and scenes. With a general idea, it should be possible to find some familiar professionals.
"Then I have to go to the capital, there are many people in the film academy who can help."
Ning Hao didn't have a lot of connections in the magic capital, and there was no one who could help. If it weren't for the fact that Yijia Pictures was in the magic capital, Ning Hao would not be willing to stay in the magic capital.
"One more thing."
"Yijia Pictures can't always be a shell company, you go back to the capital to find out if there are any talents in this area, and get the company's framework up in a short period of time. Otherwise, it would be too troublesome to coordinate what kind of movie to make. ”
Film and television media has a very bright way to make money, and erecting the company as soon as possible will be of great benefit to the future layout.
"I'll ask when I get back."
