If you count the time to chat with Wang Rong, it is not impossible to chat for a day and a night, as long as the two are not tired, Wang Rong is a talkative person, Lin Feihong thinks he is also a talkative person, now it seems that he is really a little self-righteous, and a person who can't answer a simple question can still be linked to talkative? It's an insult to the word talkative.

"And what kind of person do you want him to be?" There was a scorching light in Wang Rong's eyes, but Lin Feihong couldn't accept this kind of light, he was only silent.

Wang Rong is not such a vexatious person, seeing that Lin Feihong did not have any voice and was not disappointed, he touched his belly and said happily: "I hope he will be a great person, a great director, a great husband, and a great man in charge like you in the future." ”

"Well, am I that great?"

"Yes."

Time always flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, seven days have passed, and the National Day holiday has come to an end. The first week box office of "The Shawshank Redemption" was also released, with an attendance rate of 100, 1,300 screens, and a weekly box office of 250 million, which was higher than the box office of "The Gift of Room No. 7" in the first week, becoming the champion of all films released on the National Day.

"The Shawshank Redemption" is inevitable that it will win the next week's box office championship so easily in the first week, regardless of the level of strength, judging by the release time, it was released at least three days earlier than other big directors' movies, like Lu Lijun's "Metamorphosis" is three days later than "The Shawshank Redemption", Zhang Yimu's "Spring of 1942" was only released on October 4, and Tsui Hark's "Heroes Without Tears" was only released on the last day of the National Day holiday, so no matter what, "The Shawshank Redemption" is the first week box office champion, Because there is no comparison.

Several other foreign films released at the same time as "The Shawshank Redemption" did not perform very well, the top five did not rank, and the best one was still ranked sixth, which was "Transformers Season 1" from Hollywood.

But every year, a large number of Hollywood blockbusters still squeeze in, and no matter how hard the Chinese market hits the streets, it can still get a piece of the pie, but it is a matter of more and less.

In second place is "Metamorphosis", the director of this sci-fi film, Lu Lijun's strength is really extraordinary, and the high-achieving students who came back from studying in the United States are different, which has actually proved to be the case, since he entered China to develop, he has almost been on par with Lin Feihong, as for Zhang Yimu, Feng Xiaogang, Xu Ke, Chen Kaige, etc., who originally enjoyed a great reputation in China, were directly left behind by him, and with his attack, other Chinese directors could only avoid, except for director Lin Feihong, who was born out of nowhere. Although the current film market is the world of Lu Lijun and Lin Feihong, there will always be a day when the division of countries will merge and stand together, and the Chinese film industry will eventually belong to the world of one person.

This statement immediately attracted the opposition of many people, who believe that the film is not a country, it is unstable, the country will have a unified day, and it is basically impossible for the film industry to become a one-man world, at least for now.

"Metamorphosis" had an attendance rate of 100 in the first week of release, 1,250 screens, and the box office reached 137 million in four days of release.

In third place is Xu Ke's "Heroes Without Tears", with 1,150 screens, 100 attendance, and a weekly box office of 126 million.

The current ranking is not absolutely fair, the time is not the same, and there is no comparison under different conditions.

As in the past, media coverage of the weekly box office is not very attractive to Lin Feihong, and it has become commonplace, and whenever the movie release boom begins, the media will inevitably track the box office, as if it is a routine to eat every day.

After a few days off during the National Day holiday, I started to get busy again, and after eating, I went into the study, took the script of "Paradise Cinema" to study and meditate.

Lin Feihong wanted to redesign the concept of this movie, if it weren't for Wang Rong accidentally asking about the character of the protagonist of "Paradise Cinema", I'm afraid he wouldn't have this idea now, because he never thought much about what flaws there were in this classic "Paradise Cinema" in his previous life, maybe he was confused by the word classic, and only saw the specific world's evaluation good, but he didn't really think about it.

A large part of the reason why a movie becomes a classic movie is that its theme is clear and thought-provoking, resonant, or reflects social reality, deeply touches the hearts of the audience, and meets the audience's appetite, so the group praises it, so classic movies are produced.

But classic works are by no means perfect, there are always flaws, many people don't find out that it is because the audience, film critics have a high evaluation of it, which makes people feel awe, will not easily doubt, easy to pick, and will not easily look for shortcomings, so people only praise the classics, and the classics are perfect.

Classics have become a perfect spokesperson in people's hearts, and unless someone finds the flaws of this classic in their eyes, it is enough to make everyone disgusted and resonate. In fact, as long as you think about it carefully, you will often find problems, no matter how perfect things are, there are flaws, and there are no absolutely perfect things in the world!

Cinema Paradiso isn't perfect!

The protagonist of "Cinema Paradiso" loves movies and fights for his career, there is nothing wrong with this, men should have ideals and ambitions, but he believes in the words of the projectionist Everdo too much, and he really doesn't come back after leaving his hometown, and only comes back when the projectionist Everdo is about to die, and he has never seen his mother during this period, because Everdo told him not to come back, not to return to his hometown, although he has sent some money to his mother, but there is basically no real concern.

People like Duoduo must be complained about in reality, saying that it sounds good is for the career, and if it is unpleasant, it is indifferent, hard-hearted people, this kind of unloving person is difficult to get people's love, except in movies, because movies can be made.

This is a kind of negative energy, which is not advisable! If you teach bad people who don't have the ability to discriminate, you will become the first person hated by your parents in the world, and if you teach your own children badly, it will really be even more sad.

You can't be like Duoduo, you have to respect and love your parents. It's not easy to be a parent, give birth to children and raise daughters for a lifetime, your mind is full of children's crying and laughter, and you give everything to your children, just for that greeting, but how many people often care about their parents in reality? They have firewood, rice, oil and salt for a lifetime, and in a blink of an eye, only the wrinkles on their faces remain, they are old before they feel young, and they spend their eyes before they look at you well.

It must be changed, such a character cannot appear in his own works, and the Duoduo in his mind should be a caring, loving person, not an indifferent loner, and a person without love is just a walking dead even if he is hidden.

The theme remains the same, and what Everdo in the original book is now renamed Lin Qichao to Duoduo has not changed, and his intention to pin his unrealizable dreams on Duoduo is still the same as in the original book, what needs to be adjusted here is that Duoduo has to come back to visit his parents often on the way to pursue his dreams, and he can't only come back once in thirty years like in the original book.

The plot of visiting parents can be interspersed at any time, and it can flash in the form of a quick shot like the process of being a soldier, as long as it can reflect the process.

Quickly put pen to paper and wrote down Duoduo's characteristics: caring, optimistic and positive, often going back to visit his mother and Lin Qichao.

This is more perfect, at least less melancholy than in the original book.

Now that Feng Qingyang has already found a lot of suitable candidates and filming locations in his childhood, as long as he confirms whether it is feasible or not, he can prepare to start filming.

After making a plan, Lin Feihong picked up his mobile phone and dialed the windy call.

"Happy National Day, how's it going, how did you have a good day?" Listening to the sound of the wind, he should have a good time on National Day.

"What else, it's not like I'm at home all day, and I haven't gone anywhere to play, so I went to the Old Summer Palace, what about you, where did you go?"

"I went to Lijiang, Yunnan, and I haven't been anywhere else." Feng Qingyang replied.

"If you've played it, you should take it back now"

"You're not going to start making new movies right now, are you?" Before he finished speaking, Feng Qingyang immediately guessed the meaning of what Lin Feihong said in surprise.

Lin Feihong smiled and said, "You're right, you're going to get ready to start now, tomorrow you will take me to see the filming location you said, and then call some of the suitable candidates you chose to audition, and when these two are confirmed, the filming will start, and you can call the crew members back now." ”

"You're too fast, "The Shawshank Redemption" has only been released for a week, can't you be idle for a while?"

"Boy, the years are not forgiving, take advantage of the young and struggle more, when you are old, it is estimated that it will be too late for anything, don't talk nonsense, so it was decided, tomorrow you come to pick me up at the door of the villa, I won't drive myself."

didn't give Feng Qingyang a chance to refute and hung up the phone, sat on the chair and shook half a circle and picked up the mobile phone again, and called Leslie Cheung, Su Yawen, Fan Binbin, Liu Dehua, Xu Zhen, Wang Baoqiang, Ah Long, A Xing, Li Lianjie and others one by one.

Feng Qingyang found the filming location in a small town in G City, Zhongyang Town, this town has a population of almost 1,000 households, there are also a few decent streets, there is a large square in the center of the town, and this square is the entertainment center of the whole town, every night, almost all the people in the town gather here to chat, watch movies, next to this square is a movie theater, the only movie theater in Zhongyang Town, and the only place where the whole town people can be entertained.

After traveling all over Zhongyang Town, especially when he came to the main square and saw the "Zhongyang Cinema" by the square, Lin Feihong felt that this Zhongyang Town was specially built for him, especially for himself to shoot "Paradise Cinema".

"Qingyang, the filming location was chosen in this town, have you talked to the mayor?" patted Feng Qingyang's shoulder approvingly, patted Feng Qingyang a little flattered, Lin Feihong would not praise himself so easily.

Feng Qingyang smiled and said, "I'll help you find the town, you can talk about it yourself." ”

Lin Feihong glanced at Feng Qingyang, did not argue with Feng Qingyang, glanced at the Zhongyang Cinema with satisfaction, looked around at the wide square, and said to Feng Qingyang: "Let's go, let's go to the mayor to negotiate, you should have checked the details of this mayor, tell me his information." ”

Feng Qingyang raised his face very proudly, and said: "This town mayor is nicknamed the peerless scholar, in fact, he is a college student village official, after graduating from a famous university, he started from the village chief, and now he has stepped into the position of the town mayor, to be honest, it is not easy, eight years, eight years to become the position of the town mayor, he often tells the town that his talents should be better developed and applied, but when he can't meet Bole, he has been squatting in this town as a town mayor, complaining is his daily convenience."

He was nicknamed by the townspeople in many complaints: the peerless scholar. ”

"Peerless scholar, a very meaningful nickname, these people really know how to name it, don't complain about the king, complain man, but give him a nickname of a peerless scholar with a deep meaning, it seems that these people in the town still respect this peerless scholar."

"No, he's a famous college graduate, who doesn't respect scholars, not to mention that after he came, a large square and a cinema were built for people to entertain, and of course people will love him. Hey, it's here. ”

Following the direction pointed by the wind, there was a white building at the end of the alley, with a few big characters written on it: Zhongyang Town Government.

It's only ten o'clock in the morning, and the mayor of the town after the National Day should be at work, not at home.

"Who are you and what are you here for?" Before he could step through the gate, a doorman blocked the way.

Feng Qingyang immediately stepped forward and said politely: "We are here to find the mayor, we have important matters to discuss with the mayor, it is related to business." ”

"Have you made an appointment?"

"Nope!"

"Then you won't be allowed in."

"Then please help us to announce that there is a great director who wants to see the mayor of the town."

The doorman glanced at Feng Qingyang up and down, his brows furrowed slightly, why haven't I seen this director, I'm afraid it's a small director, hum, and he also calls himself a big director, and he picked up the phone impatiently and with a glance.

"Xiao Zhang, there are two people outside who want to see the mayor of the town, saying what kind of big director they are, but I don't feel like it, I haven't seen it before, the one with his head down is probably this subordinate who claims to be a big director, you better ask the mayor to come out and have a look, don't ask so much."

The peerless scholar came out in the end, Lin Feihong felt that he was very consistent with this nickname when he saw him at first sight, black-framed glasses, flat head, plain dress, and the whole person seemed to give people a sense of politeness, which could also be reflected in the tone of his speech.

"You're looking for me? I don't know what the two of you are here for. ”

Feng Qingyang pointed to Lin Feihong, who was one meter away, and said to the peerless scholar: "Our great director wants to discuss a matter with you. ”

Lin Feihong walked over, smiled at the peerless scholar and said hello politely, this peerless scholar seemed to be very impolite, frowned when he saw Lin Feihong, and then dragged his eyes to Lin Feihong's side, so that Lin Feihong could only retreat.

"What are you the one who, remembered, the big director named Lin Feihong?"

The surprised expression of the peerless scholar was expected, Lin Feihong didn't say anything, just smiled and nodded to prove his identity, there was no disguise to discuss the filming location, there was no need at all, and there are probably not many fans here.

But now Lin Feihong suddenly found that he was wrong, there are still many fans of his own here, this peerless scholar is one of them, it can be seen from the ecstasy in his eyes that he really supports himself, at least the movies he screened in his newly built cinema are basically the movies he shot before.

The mayor of the town was so crazy about himself, not to mention those people in the town, when the doorman and Xiao Zhang heard their mayor say that the person standing farther away was a famous director, they enthusiastically ran to Lin Feihong's side and wanted to say something but didn't know what to say, and just kept repeating "Great, great." ”

The two of them were still separated by peerless scholars, and they were too bold, and they were taken the limelight by your subordinates before they could say a few words to the big director, which was too unusual.

So the peerless scholar monopolized Lin Feihong alone, and Feng Qingyang was dragged by Xiao Zhang, the person who can do things next to the big director must be not small, and he must pat himself on the back. The doorman was the most pitiful, and he could only watch his idol gradually disappear from sight.

The peerless scholar was very enthusiastic, and after making a cup of strong tea for Lin Feihong and Feng Qingyang, he looked Lin Feihong up and down again, and then shook his head and said, "It's a pity that it's not as handsome as on TV." ”

Lin Feihong just laughed.

"This time, the big director came all the way to our Zhongyang Town, I don't know what to do?" The peerless scholar finally began to cut to the point, the mayor of the town is the mayor of the town, everything is on the topic, and when he gets serious, he comes out like an official.

Lin Feihong put down the teacup, looked at the peerless scholar and said seriously: "I am now going to make the movie "Paradise Cinema", I need to find one"

"Director, you're going to start filming "Cinema Paradiso", I've been waiting for you for this movie for a long time, if you need anything, just say it, I will definitely do my best to help the director." As soon as he said the words 'Paradise Cinema', the peerless scholar excitedly interrupted Lin Feihong's words.

Lin Feihong nodded and said, "The filming location has not been determined now, I just walked around your town, and I feel that this town is very suitable for the filming location in my mind, so I want to discuss cooperation with you."
