Chapter 161: Finalizing the Chinese Style
"Hahahaha, that's so interesting!" Gao Yan finally stopped smiling. "This idea and this idea are good, it's really hard for you, what do you think! To be honest, I've watched a lot of comedies, but this is not only funny, but there is no nonsense and a lot of stories, but I have never seen it! ”
In fact, the film's clever comedic story design is one of the reasons for the film's success. The film is unique in the setting of the storyline and the design of the relationship between the characters, which makes the whole absurd story look complete, meticulous, interlocking, and full of ups and downs, and many plots can't help but be amazing.
The focus on the reality of the grassroots survival of the little people is another factor in the success of this comedy. From the ringtone of mobile phones to the song and dance performance of the fake "Guanyin with a Thousand Hands", from "The First Snow in 2002" to the workers with a monthly salary of only 800 yuan but no work, from the humble Luohan Temple to the "Bangbang" who sells coolies, every detail and joke in the movie come from the life scenes that the audience is accustomed to.
"This idea is very good, I was still thinking about what to shoot, but now I have the answer, and it really depends on you!" Gao Yan said with a smile.
Wang Zhengfei said with a smile: "The story is good, but it has to be filmed a lot, if the speed is faster, there is no problem at all to get on the file during the Spring Festival!" ”
"Well, according to your expectations, how long will it take to shoot such a story?" Gao Yan asked.
"It won't be enough for more than a month, two months at most, and the total cost can be controlled at about five million!" Wang Zhengfei thought for a while and said. "No problem at all, we can shoot it completely!"
"Are you going to be a director this time?" Gao Yan asked.
"No, if it's going to be released before the Spring Festival, it's going to start soon, and I'm going to be busy with the album next, obviously I don't have this time!" Wang Zhengfei said, although Wang Zhengfei is not interested in directing this "Crazy Stone", but he also knows that it depends on the time, and now that he wants to release an album, he will definitely not have time to shoot, and after the album is released, he has to be responsible for publicity, this is not an online album, but a physical album, whether it can sell a good result at that time, publicity is also very important, and Wang Zhengfei will not be able to let it go at that time.
"Do you have anyone you can recommend?" Gao Yan asked.
"If you recommend it, I recommend it, it's good to have a director now, Ning Hao, it's very good among the new generation of directors now, if he is to direct, it should be fine!" Wang Zhengfei directly recommended the original director Ning Hao, as a leading figure among the new generation of directors, Ning Hao is naturally talented, it can be said that he is talented.
"In terms of actors, I recommend Guo Tao and Liu Ye and a few of them, and I will draw up a list for you when the time comes, you just follow it and find it, and then I will take out the script as soon as possible!" Wang Zhengfei said with a smile. "So you can start preparing now!"
"I see!" Gao Yan knows that he is a layman in this regard, he can only grasp the general direction, as for the specifics, it depends on Wang Zhengfei, Wang Zhengfei knows much more than he knows in this regard, the so-called art industry has a specialty, at least Wang Zhengfei is stronger than him, this is enough.
"By the way, isn't Super Girl in full swing right now? Didn't you say that you should pick two good seedlings among them? Do you have a goal? Wang Zhengfei asked.
"Well, this year's super girl is generally not too good, they are all average, but I still have an eye, there is a little girl who is good, although she is a little younger, but she looks good and has potential!" Gao Yan said.
"Who?" Wang Zhengfei really doesn't remember anyone in this session who is in line with Gao Yan's statement.
"I'm still looking at it, I haven't decided to sign it yet, it seems to be a little girl from Hangzhou, if you bring it in when the time comes, you, who are senior brothers, will definitely have to help a little!" Gao Yan said.
"Understand, the first leads the last!" Wang Zhengfei said with a smile, he has seen too much of this advanced and backward model, and the one who likes this model the most is Singapore's Sea Butterfly Company, and the most famous pair is Lin Junjie and Jin Sha, the two brothers and sisters.
"The first leads the last? That's a good statement, hahaha! Gao Yan said with a smile. Okay, then I'll go back and prepare first, you hurry up and hand over the script! ”
"Got it!"
After Gao Yan left, Wang Zhengfei returned to his room and began to choose songs for the new album.
Now that the main style has been decided, that is, Chinese style, the following is which songs to choose.
Wang Zhengfei took out a piece of paper from the desk and wrote the words "Fireworks Are Easy to Cold" on the paper, this is the first song to be determined, but Wang Zhengfei does not plan to use "Fireworks Are Easy to Cold" as the title song, after all, this song is too hurtful, so sad that it makes people tangled when they listen to it, and although Wang Zhengfei intends to use Chinese style as the main theme of this album, and Chinese style is also more sad style, but this song Wang Zhengfei still feels too sad.
Wang Zhengfei's screening is very strict, and it definitely wants a Chinese flavor, not the kind of casual addition of Peking Opera that dares to claim that it is Chinese style.
After thinking about it for a while, Wang Zhengfei found that there were too many songs in this regard, and suddenly realized that the Chinese style had spread to this point.
Wang Zhengfei turned his mind slightly, and wrote the three big characters of "Blue and White Porcelain" on the white paper, "Blue and White Porcelain" as the premier song in the Chinese style of Dong Chou, until Wang Zhengfei's later generations still sang non-stop, naturally there is a reason, the lyrics of this kind of sorrow and farewell are described more tactfully and delicately, hidden more and more subtle and charming, as if the green olive is in the mouth, you can slowly reminisce, like a hazy Jiangnan ink landscape, between the sprouts of water and clouds, you can vaguely see the Yiren white clothes and skirts, which can be described as extremely beautiful.
Soon Wang Zhengfei's third song was determined, singer Xu Song's "Smoke and Sand in the Half City", this song with a strong Chinese style, was once the theme song of the online game "Dragon Babu 2", Wang Zhengfei himself still likes it very much, loose Chinese style.
The fourth song, Wang Zhengfei chose Lin Junjie's "Cao Ying", the song Cao Ying is also Lin Junjie's masterpiece, and it belongs to the work that has been sung countless times.
The fifth song is Hu Yanbing's "Moonlight" (ps: Say a little more, time really flies so fast, when Hu Yanbing first debuted, Xiaochen was only in elementary school, wool, and graduated from college in a blink of an eye), this song inherits Hu Yanbing's consistent style with great personal characteristics, and it is also the theme song of "Qin Shi Mingyue", and it is also a sad style.
Wang Zhengfei looked back at the five songs he chose, how they were all sad songs, he didn't want to portray himself as a sad prince or something like that.
The sixth song, Wang Zhengfei chose Hetu's "Like a Flower", which is also Hetu's own masterpiece, although the name is easy to think of a famous character in Hong Kong, but in fact it is not a spoof song, "Like a Flower" is a story that often appears in ancient Chinese stories, a beautiful girl like a flower accompanied her sweetheart to study at night, and later her sweetheart was admitted to the champion, the title of the gold list, but he did not turn back to the sad story of marrying her according to the promise, but although the story is very sad, But the genre is on the light side.
The seventh song still chose Hetu's song, called "Zichuan Lu", which is a song written for the book "Zichuan", the style of the song is brisk, and Jin Ge Iron Horse jumps up. (ps: Choose this song, I am selfish, "Zichuan", resentment, as deep as the Pacific Ocean, there is wood!) But it's really good! The eighth song is a duet song sung by men and women, selected from Dong Zhenmm's "Love Drunk", this song is the theme song of another book "Zhu Xian", the style is melodious and tactful, and it is very moving.
The ninth song is a song by Dong Chou that describes the Chinese style of the Three Kingdoms, "Dancing Spring and Autumn".
The tenth song is another Chinese-style song "Farewell Poem" by Hu Yanbing.
After all ten songs are chosen, the shelf of the album is set up, and then all that's left is to put this part up.
The songs of this Chinese-style album do not want to completely establish Wang Zhengfei's future style, that is, every album must have a Chinese-style song and a song sung by men and women.
After selecting all ten songs, Wang Zhengfei sandwiched the snow-white paper into the book, for him, the most difficult thing is to choose the beginning of the selection, the rest is to write the lyrics and tunes, it is not so simple, and it can't be completed for a while, so Wang Zhengfei is not in a hurry.
Wang Zhengfei, who originally felt that there was a lot of time, suddenly felt that there was very little time, and the script of "Qin Shi Mingyue" could be delayed, it didn't matter at all, anyway, it wouldn't be filmed in a short time, but now the script of "Crazy Stone" is facing a situation where it is about to be delivered, and in order to be on file before the Spring Festival, it must be prepared now.
There is also the preparation of his first physical album, according to the contract with Huayan International, the first album will be on sale at Christmas, so there are not a few months left now, and there is not much time, so you must prepare well, but these take time, the same way, naturally there is no problem, but FAW is very entangled.
No matter, let's eat first!
Wang Zhengfei sighed and said.
