rising director

"When I was very young, my parents worked in the textile factory in the town. In the courtyard of the textile factory, there was a very old old pine tree. When I was about eight years old, a bird's nest was built on the tree. Inside There lived a nest of gray magpies. At that time, there were many children in our compound, and they all wanted to dig out the eggs."

"However, there is an old man who guards the gate of the textile factory, who has been stopping us from climbing trees to dig out bird eggs. The old man has very good reasons. One is that the gray magpie eats insects and needs to be protected, and the other is that the pine tree climbs straight up. It was very dangerous. But it didn’t convince us, one day a few of us got together, took advantage of the old man’s afternoon nap, and ran to climb a tree to dig out a bird’s nest.”

This is a very plain story, and Wan Xiaohu told it very calmly.Not at all the passion that a speech should have, but with a touch of sadness: "I won't talk about the process of how to climb a tree. The result is that we overestimated our ability, and the branches supporting the bird's nest broke, and people fell down." Come down. The eggs are broken too. Luckily, I'm the lookout."

Someone below laughed.

Wan Xiaohu didn't pay attention, but asked with a smile, "What do you think of this story?"

At the beginning, no one answered, and after more than ten seconds, someone whispered: "It's deafening."

Then all kinds of flattery.

"Sobering."

"It's so touching and affectionate!"

"I was so moved that I was about to cry."

After a short laugh, someone finally told the truth: "Eh, it seems that I didn't understand the connotation."

Wan Xiaohu waved his hand and smiled: "This is a very poor story. The reason I mentioned it is because it touched me a lot. It was just a bird's nest with a few eggs. If it is broken, it will be broken, and no one cares. Until the next afternoon after school, I went back to the compound and found two gray magpies, chirping incessantly on the pine tree, and flying around the pine tree from time to time. This situation has continued for three days."

"So. I realized the truth that I didn't understand before, that is, the bird also has feelings. It is not a toy for us to play with, nor is it explained in the book like the ranking of beneficial birds and harmful birds. It is a life. Since then .I no longer go up the tree to dig out bird eggs, nor bully the neighbor's pug, nor throw the tabby cat upstairs into the pool."

"I began to try to re-experience the world. This world is far greater than we imagined. I learned to be in awe of life and to see everything with emotion. After I decided to be a director, I began to put this awe, Bring it into my script. At this point, you should almost understand what the most important details of the story I said before are."

"The detail is that even if it's just a bird that has nothing to do with you, it has its own life. You can't make it a symbol just because it's not important. We see many domestic movies now, villains and decent The image is too stereotyped, the supporting role has only one face, and the whole story is absolutely split, telling stories for the sake of telling stories."

"You have to know that the story is not unique. The story is intercepted from a period of time in your life. During this period of time, not only you are performing the story, but other people are also performing the story. The fusion of these stories is the A wonderful play. But it is impossible for a movie to tell all the stories. At this time, the secondary stories have turned into details in every aspect."

"Details determine success or failure. How to choose a degree for details is the key to measuring whether a director is qualified or not. Remember, the movie is a bridge between the director and the audience. The details that the audience needs are the details you need. Don't always think So, I want to make my own movies, there are no directors’ own movies in the world, and some are movies that the audience needs.”

At this moment, Wan Xiaohu's mind was running fast, and he wanted to pour out all the feelings he had made in the past ten years of filming.

A small manpower, united will is a city.

What Chinese films need is not one or two famous international directors, but a group of directors who can carry their own market.Wan Xiaohu didn't want that every time someone talked about Chinese movies, there would be no one worthy of praise except him, Wan Xiaohu.

He didn't know how many students listened to his eloquent talk, but he did it according to his own ideas. If someone listened to it and learned it, then it was this person's gain, and it was also Wan Xiaohu's gain.If you didn't listen to it and didn't learn any knowledge, then there is no loss to Wan Xiaohu, at most it will be a waste of saliva.

Time passed by bit by bit.

Wan Xiaohu's speech was fragmented, rambling about here and there, but every sentence was a talk from experience.

"Learning is the most important thing. Whether it is art or technology, it is necessary to accumulate enough quantity to cause qualitative change."

"I think movies are movies. Games are games. The narratives and storytelling methods of the two media are different, and their most basic aspects are also different. Don't treat movies as games. Movies, just need You tell a good story."

"I want to be a director. You have to remember three things."

"Curiosity, that's the most important thing you have."

"Imagination, this is your most important power to create reality."

"Respect for the team, that's a more important law than any other law in the world."

……

Wan Xiaohu's speech appeared on the headlines of major media the next day, and some students recorded the entire speech with their mobile phones.

Naturally, it caused a heated discussion.Many filmmakers, experts, and artists expressed their views on Wan Xiaohu's speech.There are a lot of praises and a lot of contempt, but what can't be changed is that there are many students who aspire to be directors.Watch this talk over and over again.

Then I began to think about my own path as a director, the pursuit of ideals, and my understanding of reality!

After the speech, Wan Xiaohu immediately tore off his noble mask, and accompanied by Li Xia and other friends, he found many new female stars, such as Yang Ying, Liu Shishi, Yang Shoujiao, Zhenshuang and others.Eat, drink and sing together.Leave your contact information and wait for opportunities in the future.

After being so happy for a few days, he flew to Hollywood to continue filming his two films.

The story version of "Frozen" has been finalized, and the rest is water grinding, coloring and lighting.

'Gravity' filming continues for Sandra Bullock.

Time flies.
