Chapter 111: The unique delicacy of a female director
The screen is very empty.,Nothing.,Suddenly, the screen in front of me flashed like a black cloth.,It's like someone buttoned open the cover of the DV.,Under the overexposure of a wisp that can flash the entire screen, people can see that this is the picture that the sun has just shone.,It's like an otaku who hasn't walked out of the house for a long time will feel that the sun is a little dazzling when he goes downstairs.,The world is a little white.。
When the sunlight gradually converged, and the characters and scenery in front of the camera were slowly revealed, Xu Jinglei sat next to the flower bed in a community in a white dress, stroked the hair on the sideburns of her ears with her hand and said, "Chen Yang, don't make trouble." ”
The camera is dark again, and this time the darkness is not empty at all, because Xu Jinglei's voice appeared, and she actually started the narration from her own angle.
"Memory is like an old garment in the depths of your closet, on the one hand you don't want to wear it because it's too old; On the other hand, there are some regrets for the money that was spent. Until one day you accidentally dig out the dress, which has grown too tall and looks too small, so you throw it away with peace of mind. ”
is just a shot, just glanced at Xu Jinglei in the camera, Shao Yingying felt that he was too correct to choose Xu Jinglei as the director of "Hippie Smiley", this sentence instantly summed up the relationship between Chen Yang and Lanzi in "Hippie Smiley", of course, this is from Lanzi's perspective.
The whole story of "Hippie Smiley" begins with a phone call from Lanzi to Chen Yang, if it weren't for Lanzi accidentally remembering his old clothes, how could the couple after the breakup make this call? If Lanzi really didn't care about Chen Yang, how could he reply to Chen Yang on the forum? Lanzi still cares. It's like caring about the clothes in the closet, you won't feel distressed if you throw them away, and you won't be an eyesore when you put them there. Perhaps only when I remembered the beauty of the dress I had worn did, I took it out again, and at this moment, the size no longer matched the figure.
The camera changed again, this time on a single-plank bridge, with a turbulent river on either side of the bridge. Xu Jinglei stood there with an incorrect face, without any tenderness on her face, and said the same thing with the most righteous attitude: "Chen Yang." Don't make a fuss! ”
This should be what Lanzi said to Chen Yang after Chen Yang and Lanzi failed to reunite, this sentence should not be in the novel, but these two scenes use the same lines to show different mentalities and different Lanzi.
The lens has changed again. It's still dark. But this time the darkness made Shao Yingying look forward to it, he looked forward to seeing more different things, a female director's delicacy is something that men can never compare, just like a female director can't make a movie as atmospheric as "Sparta", but this kind of movie, they can use their tentacles that can't be touched by the naked eye to make you feel every joy and every pain, so that the audience can't hide.
"I didn't make a fuss."
In the lens, it is Wen Chang holding DV. He held the DV with a smile on his face, and while laughing, he stretched out his index finger and hooked it back and said, "Niu." Give Uncle Le one. ”
Hippie smiley.
Chen Yang's appearance instantly points to the topic!
This shot doesn't need to be explained at all, and you can't even think about it.
When the camera went dark, Wen Zhang's voice appeared, and he hesitated a little unwilling to tell: "Uh...... In fact, life is like first love, we don't care when we have it, and we regret it when we lose it, but this is not necessarily a bad thing......"
Before he finished speaking, on the other side of the single-plank bridge, Wen Zhang stood there again, his mouth slightly open, and he looked at the other side with a little bit of an explanation, his eyes were dull and numb: "I didn't make trouble." ”
His voice was very lost, and the whole person seemed to be exhausted by tossing, but this sentence of 'I didn't make trouble' completely broke all the relationship between him and Lanzi.
"It's not necessarily a bad thing...... moment the camera went black, Wen Zhang's voice appeared again: "Because only if you have lost, you know how to cherish it." ”
In the novel, Chen Yang lost Lanzi and Weiwei, Weiwei is a very perfect girl, she is beautiful and lively, and when you are happy, she will accompany you to go crazy and make trouble together, and bear B together; She can also be quiet, intellectual, and gentle, just like the wife version of "Changing Stars", she can always appear in any image in a novel made of words, which always makes you like.
"I love you."
On the screen, it was still Wen Zhang, only Wen Zhang's mouth was in the camera, and he couldn't see where the scene was, but this voice, he definitely didn't say it to Lanzi......
Sure enough, when the screen went dark, another girl's voice came: "When a woman hears this, she should feel happy, but when I hear this sentence, it seems that my man has compensated himself for what he should have said to other women, I know that he will cherish it, but I, awkward." ”
Shao Yingying heard it, this girl is Yao Di!
Backbite!
Shao Yingying's phone rang, and Wang Zhongjun came.
"Xiao Shao, have you watched the trailer?"
Shao Yingying stared at the blackened screen again, and he didn't expect this thing to be the trailer of "Hippie Smiley": "Mr. Wang, what are you kidding?" ”
"Oh, blame me, blame me, I didn't make this clear, you, a professional, must be able to see that there is no grain of film on that screen, this film was shot in DV, what's going on? Didn't Xu Jinglei become the director of "Hippie Smiley"? When I was selecting the scene, I took the main creator Wen Zhang and Yao Di together, and a few people took the DV to record a piece of something, and when they cut it out, they showed it to me, saying that they had selected the scenery and let me see it. I'll take a look, this is just the scene, there is no problem with this thing as a trailer, I plan to discuss it with you, let's have a trailer for "Hippie Smiley" according to this model, how about it? ”
Hearing Wang Zhongjun's words, Shao Yingying was relieved a lot, the story in the picture just now is indeed somewhat attractive, if all the emotions in the whole movie are pursued by a 'true' word, then Shao Yingying feels that there is no problem with using the previous clip as a promotional film, if the whole movie pursues 'forgetting youth', then this thing is a bit of a problem, first of all, people who have not read the novel must not know the relationship between the characters here, you can't ask that 2005's "Hippie Smiling Face" has the popularity of any of Jin Yong's works; Secondly, Xu Jinglei, Wen Zhang, and Yao Di, who has never shown their faces, can indeed attract the box office with the popularity of "The Age of Naked Marriage", but if even the trailer is incomprehensible, it is a cocoon, after all, not everyone has read this novel during this time period; In the end, Shao Yingying felt that the role of the trailer was to tell the audience what kind of movie this was, and this point did not come out, so what is the use of the trailer?
"Mr. Wang, let's let Lao Xu Ding do this kind of thing, Mr. Wang, you think, when we chose the director, we called her and Teng Huatao together, and the hero and heroine didn't leave her any autonomy, so I finally found a female supporting actress by myself, and I have to find Yao Di in order to cooperate with the publicity, who made Wen Zhang and Yao Di's "Naked Marriage Era" popular enough? If we don't give people some autonomy in this trailer, it will be a bit of a bully, or a bully to a woman. ”
Wang Zhongjun couldn't stop listening to Shao Yingying's words, and waited for Shao Yingying to finish before responding: "That's right." Xiao Shao, you can call Xu Jinglei in a while, although this drama is a small investment, it has to be filmed finely. ”
"I understand."
Wang Zhongjun hung up the phone, Shao Yingying dialed Xu Jinglei's phone number, and it was now nine o'clock in the evening......
"Shh......h Shh......h ”
"Boss Shao, I'm Xu Jinglei."
Shao Yingying pursed the corners of his lips in the hotel room and said: "Lao Xu, I have seen the scene you chose, and it is also very interesting to play with some small things cut out, it's time to build a group, right?" ”
"Well, now Shi Lei and the third master Niu Pengwei haven't found a suitable candidate yet, as long as these two people are selected, they will be able to start filming immediately...... It's just that these two people are a bit hard to find, and you also know that Wen Zhang has a baby face, and he wants to match him with two classmates, especially the type of third master, I really can't think of it for a while. ”
Shao Yingying didn't say much, the third master is indeed not very easy to choose, even Shi Lei is a problem, but this time the conversation is not to determine the actors: "That's the case, I don't have any opinion on the selection of scenes, the main reason for calling you today is, Lao Xu, can you try to impact the domestic film awards?" ”
This is not what Wang Zhongjun meant, Wang Zhongjun's so-called fine shooting is for the box office, Shao Yingying wants Xu Jinglei to use this romance film to impact domestic awards such as Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers.
As long as this kind of movie is made with care, it can generally get an award, if the shooting is more beautiful, it is not a problem to please both sides, after all, "Hippie Smiling Face" is not very commercial, even if it uses famous characters, it can still shoot a small and fresh effect.
"Director Shao, you still ask for the box office, I can't get the award."
"Don't be pressured, I mean I'll let you try it and rest early."
Shao Yingying hung up the phone, "Wang Gui and Anna" has been filmed for nearly half of the time, and he doesn't have an accurate score in his heart whether "Embroidered Spring Knife" can win the award, if the company doesn't have a movie dedicated to the award, maybe Huayi's impact on the award in the film market this year will be disappointed, which is definitely not good news for Huayi.
Thinking of this, Shao Yingying picked up the phone and called Wang Zhongjun again: "Mr. Wang, report "Embroidered Spring Knife" to Cannes, and report it after the filming of "Hippie Smiling Face". Shao Yingying can only cast a wide net now, he is not obsessed with awards, but he can win an award in his first year at the helm of Huayi, which is an encouragement for Huayi.
As the night deepened, dark clouds drifted in the sky, and the raindrops fell with a ferocity, knocking desperately on the glass of the window.
In this night, which should have been very literary, Shao Yingying gradually fell asleep...... (To be continued......)
