Chapter 633 is a movie, but also a task
Internet thinking has officially invaded the film and television industry, which can be seen from several forum themes of this year's film festival.
"The New Normal of Film: Internet+ and Industrial Upgrading"
"Big Data Promotes Big Movies: Take You to Play and Take You to Fly"
"New Blueprint for Internet Movies"
"Internet Movie Shanghai Summit"
Internet Literature, Film and Television Drama Scripts, New Screenwriter Talents
This year, there are only a dozen forums in the Shanghai Film Festival, and the Internet theme accounts for less than half.
Liu Yifei doesn't understand Internet thinking, although she doesn't want to participate in these forums, but there are some things that are not easy to refuse, she still went to the "New Blueprint for Internet Movies" forum.
She originally wanted to sit there and be a mascot, so she prepared a few clichΓ©s copied on the Internet to deal with it.
But one of Ahri's executives made violent comments one after another, which made Liu Yifei a little unable to suppress her temper.
"The Internet will disrupt the entire film and television industry!"
"Our interest is not in making films, but in changing the relationship between production, supply and marketing of films."
"The subject of Internet + movies is movies, and we want to bring new value to the industry."
"In five years, the shape of cinema will change. Within ten years, the ontology of cinema will change. β
The point is, he began his speech by saying that he was "an Internet person, and it was the first time to participate in a film festival".
Do you know that you are a layman and still make such a violent statement?
Liu Yifei's good cultivation does not allow her to scare people in public, but she is a good hand in yin and yang.
When it was her turn to speak, she said straight to the point: "Actually, I don't know much about the Internet, and I don't even know how to change the address book of my mobile phone guide." β
The audience laughed, all as if she was telling a joke to liven up the atmosphere, not seriously.
She continued: "I'm an actor, and I didn't really understand what Mr. Zhang said just now, hehe." I think whether it's the Internet or anything else, when you enter the film and television industry, you will definitely show your work to the audience in the end. I'm looking forward to seeing Zhang's films at the cinema. In the end, I still hope that the Internet will come in and not let me lose my job. β
Liu Yifei also told a joke at the end.
Many people on the forum heard what Liu Yifei meant: "Don't talk about subversion and change, talk about the works of the film industry, and take out the film and talk about it." β
In fact, not only Liu Yifei, but also other guests in the industry at the forum did not understand what he just said.
Why did you come in and subvert the production, supply and marketing system?
It's been more than 100 years since the birth of movies, why do you want to subvert us as soon as you come?
If you're not interested in making movies, why are you here?
Judging from the current situation, the industry has a conservative attitude towards Internet + movies, and feels that in addition to bringing a sum of hot money in, it is not clear that Internet companies can change the film and television industry.
And for money, the industry is warmly welcome.
The coal bosses who are only rich and don't understand movies were slaughtered by them, and now the Internet companies are like the coal bosses of a few years ago in their eyes.
Ahri's point of view was not agreed by most of the guests, and everyone tacitly held together and declared the rules of the industry to the layman who wanted to enter the industry - he loved to brag B to play marketing and finance, and to speak about the works of the film industry.
Ahri was bored today, but they didn't seem to care about the opinions of the film and television industry, and they had a domineering and confident attitude of "I subvert you, what do you have to do with you".
The Shanghai Film Festival is almost the most important social venue in the film and television industry, even if Liu Yifei does not participate in the competition or releases the film, she has been actively brushing her face with various activities of the film festival in the past few days.
When asked what she has been busy with recently, Liu Yifei finally revealed the news: "I am preparing a new film, and it will be launched in a few months." β
"What kind of film is that, can you tell us a little bit about it?"
"It's a movie about a woman's married life." Liu Yifei only said so much.
It was also after this interview that Liu Yifei's agent officially replied to the relevant person in charge of Ahri that Liu Yifei's schedule this year is not suitable and she can't take "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms".
Liu Yifei's last event at the Shanghai Film Festival was the premiere of the upcoming "Kill the Wolf 2" in the magic capital.
Wu Jing fired domestic youth romance films at the scene: "Now our Chinese movies and Hollywood PK are all youth romance films, with a little 'YW' feeling, "Kill the Wolf 2", as a straight male cancer movie, can also attract female audiences. β
Liu Yifei expressed her desire for action movies: ""Looking for the Dragon" is not very enjoyable, and I really want to make action movies again...... I'm good at fighting. β
Liu Yifei left the magic capital the next day and returned to the capital to continue to promote "Wang Xiaofang born in 82".
On the weekend when I returned to the capital, the crew of "Chinese Widow" contacted Liu Yifei to ask about the schedule.
Liu Yifei's staff said that this year's schedule was all out of the book, and then asked the other director if he was willing to revise the script.
The filmmaker was vague about this issue, only saying that the crew wanted Liu Yifei to spend 3-5 months after the end of next year.
Liu Yifei will have time next year, but "Chinese Widow" is obviously not the answer.
The salary was not said, and the script was not said whether it could be revised, so I made an appointment directly when I came up.
This made Liu Yifei's staff realize that something was wrong.
"The schedule is not busy at first, we still hope that the script can be revised and the play is good, so that we can continue to talk."
Of course, Liu Yifei is not the only choice for the crew, and few crews will identify an actor from beginning to end.
But Liu Yifei is an actor with her own hot spots, and she can help the crew save a publicity fee.
Of course, Liu Yifei's salary is not so friendly.
The salary of literary films is not high, and even if Liu Yifei gives a friendship price, it is a little higher than that of other actors, unless you promise to let her take a share.
The crew of "Chinese Widow" verbally agreed to Liu Yifei, but turned around and contacted the alternative actors.
This is also normal.
Liu Yifei can actually see that the crew of "Chinese Widow" is not so sincere, and it can be seen that they are actually unwilling to change the script.
After the script is written, who wants to change it.
If you say that it does not conform to the Chinese Chinese language habits, it does not conform to it?
Liu Yifei told her husband about "The Chinese Widow", and Zhang Yuanjun laughed after listening to it: "My stupid wife, what script do you change." β
Zhang Yuanjun sometimes really doubts that his wife is a congenital bad film holy body, how can the transformation be successful, or these films come to the door.
"If you don't change it, you can't do it, its lines really don't conform to the language habits of Chinese people." Liu Yifei has always looked at the script from a creative point of view.
Zhang Yuanjun said: "I'm the crew producer, and I'll feel that you're looking for something to do." β
Seeing that Liu Yifei was still puzzled, he said: "Who is the investor of this project?" β
"Zhejiang Provincial Propaganda Department."
"That's right," Zhang Yuanjun said, "you treat it as a movie, it's a creation, and people take it as a propaganda task." To put it mildly, this kind of film does not pursue either box office or awards. β
"And what does he want?"
"This film is filmed, that's it." This kind of mission film doesn't even need to be released in theaters, just sell it to movie channels at all levels after filming.
"Then wouldn't it be better for him to hire a director as big as Billy August?"
Zhang Yuanjun said: "That has to be a bit of a gimmick, otherwise it will make people feel that they don't pay attention to this movie."
"Don't think about this movie, August won't change the script for you."
Liu Yifei was mentally prepared: "Tsk, it's a pity, director of the double Palme d'Or, I still want to meet it." β
"I'm still young, and any director will have a chance in the future." Zhang Yuanjun comforted.
