As the "head teacher" of this director's training class, Liu Zhen certainly couldn't have been unaware of Sun Peng's existence.

In fact, this class had already closed when Sun Peng signed up before, but after knowing his identity, he opened the net and added a number. After all, in addition to being a graduate of the film school, Sun Peng is also a well-known writer, screenwriter and songwriter, and it is impossible for the school not to consider the benefits brought by this.

"To be honest, I was a little surprised."

After everyone got acquainted with it, Liu Zhen said with a smile: "I really didn't expect you to suddenly want to learn to be a director...... Do you want to shoot your own martial arts films? I watched your "Battle of the Warehouses", and I have to say that it is really a genius idea, and it is wonderful and breathtaking! It's just that there are still slight flaws inside, and the use of light and lenses is not very mature. ”

"Hehe, that's why I'm coming to my alma mater for further study."

said with a smile, Sun Peng indirectly answered Liu Zhen's question.

Having the original version as a reference does not mean that Sun Peng can copy it perfectly. The movie is not, just copy it word for word, and the difference in lens, lighting, etc. will cause a difference, and Sun Peng, who has no experience in this, naturally can't do better than Lao Xu, otherwise why does he need to go to school again?

"So ......"

With a slight raising of his eyebrows, Liu Zhen continued to ask with a smile in the corners of his eyes: "Have you ever considered using a martial arts short film as your final work?" As a martial arts fan, just a "Battle of the Warehouse" is not enjoyable! ”

"Oh? Teacher Liu also watches martial arts? ”

After hearing these words, Sun Peng's eyes suddenly widened.

"Of course, my favorite is "Smiling Proud Jianghu"!"

Speaking of his students, Liu Zhen immediately became gushing: "But "Tianlong Babu" and "The Legend of Deer and Ding" are also good, especially Xiao Feng in Tianlong, I just like it too much......"

“……”

Scratching his head, Sun Peng's face was shy.

Liu Zhen, who is in his early forties, also likes to watch martial arts? What a surprise.

After chattering about martial arts for a while, Liu Zhen asked with a smile: "Since you have filmed "The Battle of the Warehouse" and come to study directing, you must be planning to make martial arts movies in the future, right?" ”

"Well, almost."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Sun Peng smiled and nodded.

This kind of obvious answer, there is really nothing to hide, but Sun Peng changed the topic, and then smiled: "But Mr. Liu, although I do plan to make a film, I haven't thought about making another martial arts short film!" ”

"Uh...... So what do you want to shoot? ”

Slightly stunned, Liu Zhen asked with some surprise.

"Hehe, I want to make a movie!"

With a sigh of relief, Sun Peng said with a smile: "A real martial arts movie, so I plan to spend a year learning something, and at the same time start preparing for this martial arts movie, if everything goes well, it will be great if filming starts next spring." ”

"Martial arts movies?!"

Hearing this answer, Liu Zhen was stunned.

Of course, the so-called stunned is just a polite statement, from the eyes of this teacher Liu, Sun Peng can easily see that in addition to being surprised, there is a trace of amusement that is very obvious but quickly disappears!

Is it really that easy to make a movie?

"Yes, make a martial arts movie!"

As if he didn't notice Liu Zhen's contempt, Sun Peng smiled and said: "A martial arts movie that I have a good look in my heart, so I have to work hard to learn to be a director in this year's time, so please ask you, Mr. Liu......"

……

"Wow! Are you really going to make a movie?! “

After listening to Sun Peng's decision, Lin Lin suddenly shouted: "Xiaopeng, you have nothing wrong with your brain, right?" Do you know how complicated it is to make a movie? Did you know that being able to write a good script doesn't mean being able to make a good movie? You know ......."

"Shut up!"

Glaring at him, Sun Peng shouted impatiently: "Do you still want to be the heroine?" Do you want to? If you don't want to, just keep talking! “

Like a zipper on her mouth, Lin Lin was instantly silenced.

However, Lin Lin didn't dare to say anything for the heroine's position, but Sun Ya frowned and asked, "Xiaopeng, have you really thought about it?" The investment in a movie is not low, and it will start at tens of millions, but you ......"

"I know, I'm a layman!"

Shrugging his shoulders, Sun Peng smiled lightly: "Don't worry, sister, I'm not a fool, I naturally understand the difference between making a short film on the Internet and making a movie that goes into the theater, and I also understand that there is only one year, and it is impossible for me to have the ability to control a movie, I understand all this!" “

"That'...... What exactly do you mean? ”

His brows furrowed even deeper, and Sun Ya asked puzzled.

Web shorts and movies, and even TV series and movies are two different concepts. Lin Lin, who is filming a TV series, knows this, and Sun Ya, who has made up for a period of knowledge after becoming an agent, also knows that of course Sun Peng will not understand. For example, he knows that even TV drama stars and movie stars are very different, and the requirements for acting skills on the big screen are higher, and the advantages and disadvantages of appearance and figure will also be magnified, so actors who can succeed in movies are generally higher than TV drama actors.

And if you want to do a good job, there are too many requirements in all aspects.

It is not enough to know what kind of story to shoot and how to arrange the shots, but also to be responsible for the performance of the actors, props, costumes and scene arrangements, etc., which needs to reflect the comprehensive ability of a director. With Sun Peng's current level of absolute whiteness, even after a year of hard work, he can even find a few crews to learn from?

Not to mention that Liu Zhen thinks it's funny, Sun Peng also thinks it's a joke to make a good movie purely on his own!

But......

"Sister, I didn't say I shot it all by myself!"

Blinking his eyes, Sun Peng said with a smile: "Since I know that my level is not good and my experience is seriously insufficient, why do I have to make a movie completely on my own?" So I'm telling you this now, I want you to help me do some of the preparation work while I'm learning how to be a director! ”

"Preparation? You mean......"

"First of all, we need to find a film company to work with!"

After taking a deep breath, Sun Peng said seriously: "What I want to shoot is a costume martial arts film, so after the script is written, I need your help to find an experienced film company to help form the crew; Also, I need a really capable director – mind you, I'm not talking about an assistant director, I'm talking about a real director! ”

"Uh......"

Hearing her brother say this, Sun Ya suddenly understood, and said with a smile: "What do you mean is that you write the script, the film company helps build the crew, and then finds a director to shoot for you...... Isn't that still a screenwriter? What's the difference with the three movies in "Hurricane Rescue"? ”

"Hehe, of course it's different!"

With a smile, Sun Peng squeezed his eyes and said, "Although I don't have the ability to make a movie on my own, I can tell the director what kind of effect I want to make!" And when it's really time to shoot action scenes, do you think there is any director who can be stronger than me, Ye Xing, and Liao Chen? ”

“……”

Seeing her younger brother's confident expression, Sun Ya was speechless for a moment.

Shooting a movie is definitely not easy.

From the very beginning, Sun Peng corrected his mentality, that is, studying this director training class is not to make a movie himself, but to be able to assist another director to make a good movie.

To put it simply, it is to put yourself in the position of assistant director.

"So, the director is the key!"

After explaining to the second sister, Sun Peng emphasized: "The strength of the film company does not have to be particularly strong, because the first martial arts film I made was not a big production, the cost was not high, and a large number of newcomers were used......"

"Hey, I'm not new!"

Ignoring Lin Lin's shouting beside him, Sun Peng continued: "So even if I invest and bear all of it myself, it's no problem, but the director must find an experienced one who is willing to shoot martial arts movies at the same time...... Ahem, to put it simply, it's the kind that can listen to me when it matters!

"Okay, I see."

After listening to Sun Peng's words, Sun Ya completely understood.

Of course, this condition can't be considered good, especially for an experienced director, it is not easy to listen to the opinions of a hairy boy. But Sun Ya believes that there are two-legged directors everywhere in these years, and they will definitely not be unable to find them, and as soon as they heard that Sun Peng was even willing to take money to make films by himself, it would be even less difficult to find a film company to cooperate.

So after thinking about it for a while, Sun Ya asked, "Then when will your script be written?" What is the name of the movie? “

"If it's a script, give me a month!"

After pondering for a while, Sun Peng smiled slightly: "As for the name of the movie, it's called "Dragon Gate Inn"!" “
