Chapter 281: College Student Film Festival
After signing Zhang Xiaofei, Lin Yu led her to get to know a few people in the dormitory, including Xu Zheng and others, and then took Zhang Xiaofei to the team of Happy Twist and met some comedy dramas.
"Our film is a comedy, you haven't made it before, the drama is not the same as the movie, and the comedy is different from the traditional theme."
"Before the movie starts, you will study here first, and then Mr. Zhang will take you."
"Mr. Zhang, it's troublesome, this is our first signed artist, and we are going to make a comedy movie soon, and we will have to draw a few people from your team at that time, as for her, it will be arranged for you these days, please take her with you."
"Okay, definitely, we have to rehearse the drama every day here."
"Hello, Mr. Zhang." Zhang Chen stretched out a hand to Zhang Xiaofei, and his tone was a lot more polite, no way, the big boss is rich now, he didn't think there was anything before, and now that "Encounter in the Cemetery" is released, the May 1st file has gone all the way to the fourth place, and now the total box office is about to be one billion, he sees it in his eyes.
And I heard that this is still a movie owned by the young man in front of him, one person swallows all the profits, just this movie, the profits are hundreds of millions!
With this kind of boss, Happy Twist is still afraid that there will be no money??
"Hello, Mr. Zhang, hello." Zhang Xiaofei was suddenly a little flattered.
"Xiaofei, don't look at this as just a drama team, but they are the only team in the country that does comedy dramas, and dramas are also very testing, the performance of comedy movies is different from serious themes, it is between realism and exaggeration."
"I want you to grasp this level."
Zhang Xiaofei immediately nodded solemnly, next to him, Zhang Chen couldn't help but glance at Lin Yu, he is a content person, a screenwriter, of course he heard Lin Yu this sentence and caught the pain point of comedy.
A fusion of pompousness and realism.
Going deeper, there is also the integration of baggage and plot.
Hello Li Huanying is a typical burden and the plot are poorly integrated, and the burden is noisy, making the plot hollow.
The plot is obscure and complex, making it difficult to arrange the baggage, and the jokes are mediocre.
No wonder at such a young age, the talent of directing is so high......
Zhang Chen shouted silently in his heart.
"Come on, come on, classmate Zhang, please inside."
Regardless of how Zhang Xiaofei was with Mary and Shen, Lin Yu walked out of the office building of Happy Twist, thought about it, and took out his mobile phone.
is still three years ago, in front of the crew of Xiaoao Jianghu, the contact information of the one Lin Yu added, except for the New Year's holiday, Lin Yu won awards, Liu Yifei was on fire, and these special nodes, the two hardly had any additional communication.
Thinking of this, Lin Yu sent a message to the past, "(smiley), are you busy?" ”
There was no criticism and waiting for others to return, Lin Yu immediately said the right thing, "I have a script here, and I plan to make a comedy, but I lack a female number one, I don't know if you are free or not." ”
The news was sent, and seeing that there was no movement over there, Lin Yu shrugged his shoulders and left it alone.
When it was time for dinner, Concubine Liu sent a message.
"(Happy), find me to be the first woman, ouch yo big director, you finally thought of me, I thought you didn't like me for a small role like you."
Looking at the mobile phone, Lin Yu smiled awkwardly, Liu Yifei is the kind of character who does not eat fireworks in the world on TV, but in reality she is a silly musician, more straightforward, and generous.
She complained very much about the setting of "not eating fireworks in the world".
"How dare you, I didn't have any money before, so I can't afford to dig it."
"Yo, boss, what are you doing, which girl are you talking to?" In the university cafeteria, the second child was holding the barbecue rice, watching the forest fish pressing his mobile phone there, and hurriedly poked his head over.
"Don't talk nonsense, work." Lin Yu quietly tilted his phone.
The phone vibrated again, and Lin Yu picked it up and looked at it.
"I'm filming in other places, and there is no schedule for half a year, if you're not in a hurry, you can send the script to my agent."
"If the brokerage company allows, I will shoot yours after the filming of this TV series in my hand."
Half a year.
Lin Yu sighed and put away his mobile phone, how could he wait for half a year like this, it was inevitably too long, Liu Yifei had no schedule, this would be troublesome.
Bai Yueguang's appearance must be overpowered by Zhang Xiaofei.
Go to the original owner Wang Zhilai?
To be honest, Charlotte's troubles raised Ms. Wang's evaluation, just like Zhuge Dali's character, the overall is still a little not big enough, and Bai Yueguang's school flower feels a little unsupported.
Liu Yifei is supposed to be the most incomprehensible student era, but the charm after that is still a little difficult to solve, but it doesn't matter.
Who said you have to go the sexy route according to the original book? Then doesn't Concubine Liu have the dress of an urban beauty?
The aura of a vivid and cold urban female beauty, why doesn't it work, right?
This is a very good candidate, but unfortunately, the schedule is conflicting.
Lin Yu began to feel the pain of Liu Weiqiang's casting, how can there be so many roles that fit the characters appropriately, and even in most cases, they don't match.
"Let's audition!"
Liu Yifei is in the soup, the casting situation is there, and only the heroine is stuck, and Lin Yu only has one last way left, the audition.
Or choose a suitable role from a well-known female artist.
Halfway through the audition, the female number one has no clue, mainly because ......there is some trouble, although Lin Yu has the name of a billion box office director, but Lin Yu is too tender after all, a college student, naturally not trusted.
Although there are many actresses who submit information, there are not many pure campus styles, and a few are occasionally called, and their acting skills are all stretched.
With Lin Yu's current pickiness, the acting skills of idlers are not eye-catching at all.
In late September, "Graveyard Encounter" finally grinded down, and the box office broke one billion, and the single-day box office was almost cleared, Lin Yu was satisfied and removed "Graveyard Encounter"
On the wave network, it was announced that "Graveyard Encounter" has set several records.
First, the national supernatural theme, the highest box office!
Second, the only one in the country, with a supernatural theme, broke the box office of one billion.
Third, college students directed movies, with the highest box office record.
……
All kinds of gossip and small news have all raged on the Internet, and with the removal of the cemetery encounter, the big brother mainstream video media station began to contact Lin Yu and wanted to sign the online version of the cemetery encounter.
The contract given is about 73 with a high share ratio of 3 million guarantees.
Or 10 million, buyout.
After negotiating with these platforms, Lin Yu finally sold it to Rotten Tomatoes at a buyout price of 10 million, and the income from the cemetery encounter was almost completely cut off.
"Boss, you can't waste an IP encounter in this cemetery." Guo Hao also began to call Shunkou, chattering crookedly.
"Shooting Cemetery Encounter 2, the box office starts with 500 million, and this money is simply picked up for nothing."
"Hey, there's not enough manpower." Lin Yu sighed, "You have to go with me to shoot Charlotte's troubles, and Zhou Ye has to go with Xu Zheng to shoot the ghost record 4."
Encountering this IP in the cemetery is making money, but the forest fish will be too busy for a while, and the small workshop is like this.
"yes." Guo Hao scratched his head, thought for a while, and said, "Why don't you go to Huace and rent a director here?" ”
"Let's write the script and provide actors, just find a director to shoot, 2 million, definitely enough to rent a good director."
"Let's get back to it." Lin Yu pondered for a moment, "Even if we shoot it, we still have to go back to supervise the production, it's better to stay and cultivate other people, this IP is stored there, go back and call Xu Zheng or Zhou Ye to shoot." ”
At the end of the month, the National College Student Film Festival began.
The college student film festival was held in the magic capital, but it was a little famous in the circle, and the influence was not very large, mainly concentrated in a few universities, and there were very few college students who could produce college students in the past, and this niche film festival also played a role in encouragement.
But this year, after the implementation of various policies, in just one year, the output of college student films has doubled compared to last year, and this is just the beginning.
There is no doubt that the festival will get bigger and bigger as time goes on.
In order to show their concern and attention to young people, the radio and television leaders of Modu will attend the film, deliver speeches, and present awards.
"Brother, will we be too dimensional-reducing and attacking?" On the way to the magic capital, Guo Hao couldn't help but complain a little, "This college student film festival is at best a DV short story, or some graduation works, I feel that my "Wednesday and Thursday" can win awards if you take it." ”
"You take your graveyard encounter to report ......"
Let's put it this way, most of the entire college student film festival can't even make up a movie that is often an hour and a half long.
"Some children's awards, will it be too bullying?"
Guo Hao's vision is a little high now, what college student film festival? It's just a play house!
"But I'm also a college student, right?" Lin Yu said simply.
"Those people are just a DV work."
"Am I not a DV work?"
I'm rubbing, if you want to say that, it seems to have some sense.
What do you say about this broken film festival? It can only be said that there is no one who can fight, Lin Yu is too much beyond these people, and there are several awards at this college student film festival, "Best Feature Film, Best Documentary, Best Experimental Film"
There are three Excellence Awards under each best.
Then there is the best director, the best actor, the best actress, horizontal and vertical together, more than a dozen awards.
This year's College Student Film Festival bumped into Lin Yu, a trickster, which can only be said to have fallen into blood mold.
The awards ceremony was in a very serious hall, yes ......, a hall was round, and there were plastic chairs, a podium, and a projector underneath, and this was all there was to the main home of the University Student Film Festival.
Seven or eight staff members, all teachers from major universities, more than a dozen volunteers, and more than a dozen media outlets.
There are even people from the TV station, with long guns and short cannons, and there are live TV instruments in the corner.
There were more than 200 seats under the stage, all of them were students from the directing departments of colleges and universities from all over the country who were invited to this year, from freshman to senior, for a while, the hall was chaotic, and many people hung their own school's sign around their necks, cramped to find students from the same school to sit together.
Some people who know each other are talking to each other in the audience.
"The King's Bureau." At the corner of the hall, the person in charge of the venue was making an introduction, "Today, the media in the city are here, and you will come to the stage to make a ten-minute speech, and then present awards to these students." ”
"Well, it's all the flowers of the motherland." The man who was called Wang Ju looked at the list in his hand, and his expression was slightly weird, "This ......, the cemetery encounter, how can you apply for the college student film festival?" ”
This name, in these literate, niche, and generally only twenty-minute DV short films, can be called a weird variety.
The weirdest thing is not this, but last Saturday, he went to the cinema with his wife and daughter to watch this movie, how to say, a very mature commercial film.
On another occasion, it is not surprising that he sees this film at any film festival and which nomination it describes.
But look at what it is.
College Student Film Festival, except for you, there is no real movie!
"Leadership." The man next to him nodded and hurriedly explained, he thought that Wang Ju didn't know anything about this movie, "The director of this movie is called Lin Yu, and he is a junior student at Qinzhou Chinese Opera Film Academy. ”
"College students??" Wang Ju's voice suddenly raised an octave.
"Yes, yes." The man rubbed his hands and said with a sneer, "So, when he first pitched this movie, we hesitated for a long time, but they are completely qualified, and they are more in line with the theme of the film festival, ......."
"We think that with the development of entertainment in our magic capital, I am afraid that there will be more and more serious movies at the film festivals of college students in the future."
"We want to set a precedent."
"Hmm." Wang Ju thought for a while and nodded, "Your idea is good, but you can't look down on others just because others are movies, school, it is the last pure land outside the society, and you must take advantage of the wind of capital to blow in, and engage in fairness and justice." ”
"Only look at the content, don't look at the box office, you have to remember the ......, the six relatives don't recognize, only the works; The wind comes from all directions, and he is at the helm. ”
"Yes, yes." The person in charge on the side hurriedly took out a notebook from his pocket, took out a pen, and began to remember it in public.
The conference will also start, and some media have already "clicked" and are trying to capture some footage.
Some people who had nothing to do off the field naturally began to whisper.
"Have you read the list, "Graveyard Encounter" is also in it, is this science? That makes sense. In one corner, a senior in the drama director department whispered in a sad and angry tone, "Isn't this a lie?" ”
Everyone else's expressions are tense, as if graduate students are still following their supervisors to study topics, and they are not even very skilled at "catching dead rabbits".
At the graduate defense, there was a big participant in the Solvay Conference on Physics.
Who can withstand this?
"He's a college student, and no one says he can't come." A senior in the directing department, said quietly, as soon as the words fell, the man's chin was raised, and he went in that direction, "Look, he's coming. . . ”
