rising director

The draft was very long. It can be said that from the fifth-generation director to the first-generation director, Wan Xiaohu and "My Sassy Girl" were affirmed at the end.Xie Jin is the country's number one director, and has made a generation of films that have been set up by propaganda outlets.He is a representative figure of the Chinese government in the field of film.

To receive such praise from Xie Jin, Wan Xiaohu really felt terrified.

"Thank you teacher..."

"Don't thank me. This is the face you earned yourself. Originally, I didn't need to praise you like this. You young people go to heaven without boasting. But some old guys don't respect the old. For their own selfish desires , just reverse black and white, I don't want all filmmakers in China to become this kind of virtue."

"Anyway, I want to thank the teacher."

"You really have to thank me. Next year, strive to make a wonderful film as your graduation project. This is the greatest gratitude."

"I will!" Wan Xiaohu nodded, "Infernal Affairs" has already been prepared.

"Okay, let's go to the auditorium to discuss with the students. You are a successful director now, you can't hide your secrets, and you have to pass on your experience to the students."

Arrived at the auditorium.

Wan Xiaohu is still very excited, everyone hopes to be affirmed by others.Being chased and scolded by old filmmakers, even though Wan Xiaohu said he didn't care, he still felt bad in his heart, as if you had clearly done a good deed.But being scolded by others for meddling in your own business, you will inevitably feel upset.

At this time, someone will come to comfort you and tell you that you are doing the right thing, and you will feel relieved.

Therefore, Wan Xiaohu originally planned to be at this exchange meeting.Criticize some people for relying on the old to sell the old, and vent your anger.Now I just want to exchange movies with my classmates quietly, and don't care about gossip anymore.

Clap la la la.

Two hours passed in a flash, and the film screening ended.

The staff handed over a few microphones to Wan Xiaohu and the others. Wan Xiaohu spoke first and cleared his throat: "Before I came, I was quite uneasy. I am also a student of Nortel. Stay everyone. Did you give me a positive signal to bluff you?"

"Cut!" The students rolled their eyes in unison.

Li Xia said with a smile, "Whether or not it is fooled is secondary. The key is whether everyone thinks the movie is good or not. From a purely market perspective, do you think it is a successful movie?"

"It must be." Many students replied.

Zhang Yang with his fat belly straightened out, and said frightenedly: "I saw many classmates crying during the part of "I-beleve". I think the success of the movie is largely due to the soundtrack."

Chen Chong disdained: "What credit do you have, you just deal with the soundtrack, many of the music is ready-made. The lyrics of "I-beleve" were written by Tiger, and the tune was also hummed by Tiger, and then hired someone to write it. Your credit is the least .”

"You don't have much credit, Inspector Lu Le is the real photographer."

"Hey, hey, those who are here to promote the movie today, don't kill each other." Wan Xiaohu quickly stopped the two of them arguing, "Actually, there is no need to argue about who deserves the most credit for a movie. Of course, I, the director, deserve the most credit." .”

"Cut!" Li Xia, Chen Chong, and Zhang Yang all rolled their eyes.

"Okay, let's stop joking around here. I have attended many press conferences about movies, and I have said too much, so I don't know how to say it. All of you here are classmates, and many of you know me. Whatever you want to talk about, just open your mouth, I will tell you everything when I go back to school today."

"Senior Wan, I have a question." A female student stood up, and Wan Xiaohu saw that she was still familiar, as if she was Dong Xuan, one of the four young female roles in the future.

"It's not popular in our school to stand up and talk, sit down and talk."

Dong Xuan smiled embarrassedly, sat down and asked: "Senior, I almost cried just now, but I have actually watched it twice in the cinema. I have too many questions about the movie, but I'm afraid it will waste everyone's time , I’ll just ask the one I’m most concerned about, senior, have you ever been in love?”

"Ah." Wan Xiaohu was speechless, "You said you had too many questions about movies, but in the end, you only asked one question that had nothing to do with movies, junior girl, I'm convinced. I can only answer this question in this way, Young is too good, there are many women around me, and there are many good conditions, so after so many years of hesitation, I still haven't made a good choice..."

0149【In-depth communication】Ask for a monthly ticket

Wan Xiaohu was quite comfortable with the communication in Nortel. After all, he is a student of Nortel, and it is no different from returning to his own home.

After Dong Xuan asked a question about love, she was teased by Wan Xiaohu, covered her mouth and giggled, and then asked: "Brother, "My Sassy Girl" has many details, which are particularly touching. I'm just curious, you How can you create such a sweet and romantic love story if you haven’t been in love before? I don’t think people who have been in love can’t imagine many details.”

Of course I talked about it, but I won't tell you!

Wan Xiaohu laughed loudly: "It's called talent. Some people are born to pick up girls, such as me, who is very attractive. But some people are more dull and can't get girlfriends, such as the few around me."

"Except for me, I have a girlfriend, and I'm about to get a certificate to live together legally." Ning Hao hurriedly separated himself. His girlfriend, Xing Aina, was a film and television screenwriter, so it can be said that they are a husband and wife team.

Li Xia also raised his hand: "Except for me, I have a hook-up." His hook-up is Li Yumin.

Chen Chong raised his hands sullenly: "Hehe, many of you here know my girlfriend." Xu Ying has officially dated him.

Zhang Yang thought for a while, and raised his hand: "Actually, recently, a girl kept writing love letters to me."

Cheng Er blew his hair: "I won't talk about it, you can inquire about it."

Wan Xiaohu was stunned for a moment: "Do you still understand what cooperation is?"

Haha, the students below were amused by these boring people, and Dong Xuan laughed even more.

After a pause, Wan Xiaohu put away his jokes, and said solemnly: "Actually, the details you mentioned, junior sister, are not made up because I have been in a relationship, or I haven't been in a relationship, but I deliberately set it up. These details are used to fill in the gaps in the plot. You have seen it just now. You also know that this is a two-hour movie."

"If you just talk about Song Mingxi and Qiangniu for two hours, no matter how funny, funny or touching what you say, the audience will find it annoying. At this time, you need to talk about it without affecting the main story. , to use some small details to distract the audience's attention. Let him maintain a constant sense of freshness during the movie-watching journey."

"There used to be an American who preached the science of success everywhere. His name was Norman Center Peale, and he had served as an advisor to several presidents. I even went to find out the video tapes of his speeches. There are two sentences that I particularly like I like it. The first sentence is 'Empty pockets don't stop you from doing anything, only an empty head will stop you from accomplishing anything', and the second sentence is 'Attitude determines everything, and details determine success or failure'. Today, everyone communicated with each other, I will tell my secret."

"To make a movie, what you need is not a full purse. You need a head full of whimsy. Without this head, you can't write a good story, and even if you have a good book, you can't visualize it. And the directing students here, or the brothers who are committed to directing work, must have a head full of whimsy. In the next step, what you need is attitude and details."

"First of all, I also have a good head." Wan Xiaohu smiled and pointed to his head, but no, there are countless good movies in it, "I made three movies last year. In the golden age of Hong Kong movies, this speed is not enough. It’s nothing, but it’s different here and now.”

"A lot of friends ask me. Why do you shoot so fast, and you can still shoot well? If you are an old director, you may tell you very well: 'There is no one else, only the hand is familiar with you.' I don't say that , I said, I use my attitude to make decisions, and the details determine the outcome. The movies I make must first of all impress me. I don’t make movies that pretend to be artistic, I just shoot what the audience has fantasized about. expected content."

"Brother, I'm also a student of the directing department. I want to ask, how can we determine the content of the audience's fantasy? We all know that we must cater to the taste of the audience. How can we do it?"

Wan Xiaohu stretched out his hand and nodded: "Your question is deeper than that asked by that beauty just now."

Dong Xuan protested below: "Brother, you don't want to belittle people like that."

Wan Xiaohu ignored Dong Xuan's protest and said: "Actually, this question is very simple. You can ask a passer-by. He may not be able to tell you exactly what he wants to see. But I think eight out of ten people will say, I am I want to watch some light-hearted movies, with big scenes and big productions, but without preaching. And this is precisely the movie that we can’t do well at the moment. I say this, and I’m limited to this exchange.”

"I don't like many films that have won awards internationally. They are too deep, too esoteric, and too artistic. It seems that they are specially used to win awards, not for audiences to watch. I like Feng Xiaogang's films, which are humorous and revealing. A philistine of the petty bourgeoisie, but just for fun. Movies are art, but first of all, movies are just a spice of life. We are very tired of life now, and you are still tossing some black and gray ones. Play today It's not interesting for the dead to force people to die tomorrow, right?"

"In the commercial market, if you really want to make a movie with such a deep theme, you can actually make it cool and dazzling. You need a lot of content to package it, instead of using a long shot to say Slow story. Don’t be too cruel, too entangled. If you are entangled, the audience will be even more entangled. This is a little bit of my experience in making movies.”

"After listening to the words of the senior brother, it is better than studying for ten years." A student raised his hand, and as soon as the words came out, he was flattering.

"Keep a low profile, year is good, year is compulsory education, ten years will be charged." Wan Xiaohu waved his hand to signal everyone to keep a low profile.

The student was embarrassed for a moment, and then said: "Brother, I have watched all three of your movies many times, and I have watched "Waiting Alone" no less than [-] times. I really like it. The lines in it are superb, and the acting It’s very vivid, and I can see your directing skills from the movie, brother, you were not as proficient as "My Sassy Girl" at that time, it is very useful for reference, among these three movies, which one are you most satisfied with?"

"You asked this question. Now is the promotion period of "My Sassy Girl". Of course, I am most satisfied with "My Sassy Girl." Wan Xiaohu raised his legs, "Actually, I think that your research is wrong. I Three films. The least commercial is "Waiting Alone". It was filmed to sell to CCTV at the beginning, in the style of a TV movie. The real commercial films are "Butterfly Effect" and "My Sassy Girl". Especially "The Butterfly Effect", you should study it carefully. The era of computer CG special effects has arrived, and future commercial films will still have to rely on science fiction and fantasy."

As someone who has experienced it, Wan Xiaohu is well aware of the future development of the film industry, the four themes of comedy, animation, magic, and science fiction.It is the mainstream of business, and if you want to grab money, you have to shoot under this framework.

Since he is willing to communicate, Wan Xiaohu will not hide it. This is the temple of Chinese movies, and the rise of Chinese movies in the future will not be possible without the efforts of this group of people.If the exchange today.Wan Xiaohu is also honored to be able to promote the rise of tomorrow's batch of directors.

The exchange meeting was extremely lively. After the jerky was thrown out at the beginning, there were many kinds of questions. Even individuals on the stage communicated with a group of people at the same time, as chaotic as a vegetable market.

But obviously.Most of the people who asked Wan Xiaohu were young girls.
