Chapter 137 Tangtang wanted to act in an idol drama, so I wrote a script (3/5)
"Day Fireworks" plummeted 65% on its first working day, and closed 10.5 million in a single day...
It set the highest decline in Lu Xiaoran's movies.
There is no need to say anything about the outside world. The movie invested less than 8 million yuan, and won the Berlin Golden Bear and the best actor Silver Bear. The box office was also very gratifying.
Although the reputation is polarized, some film critics even said, "Lu Xiaoran doesn't understand black movies at all!"
In the auditorium of Fudan University, Lu Xiaoran said frankly, "Of course I can read movie reviews, but our country lacks powerful movie critics. I used to hear that Teacher Dai Jinghua is very prestigious, so I watched her lecture. That episode happened to be about movie noir. I agreed with what she said at the beginning, until she gave an example of movie noir and said "Rocky". She said "Rocky" is a very typical movie noir, which immediately broke my cognition...'
"The so-called noir movie has a dark tone, a pessimistic mood, and a film style that expresses cynicism and human crisis. It is converted from black literature and black humor!"
"Rocky is a very typical inspirational film. The script creation follows all the patterns of inspirational films. Anyone who understands movies should not summarize "Rocky" as a movie noir!"
"Since then, I've stopped reading any so-called authoritative film critics' reviews..."
A movie expert on the stage was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Many people reported that Wu Zizhen, played by Yuan Quan, was not expressive enough and did not have the feeling of a femto-scorpion woman."
"I am a movie from a male perspective, and I didn't want to lean on the classic plot mode of black films. It's just that the detective falls in love with the femto-scorpion girl. I think the girl is not necessarily a femto-scorpion girl, maybe she is powerless..."
"But this setting makes the sense of power lose."
"But if she is a femto-scorpion woman, why should the detective fall in love with her? I don't like this!"
Lu Xiaoran continued: "Many people asked me what I wanted to express in "Day Fireworks". My answer was that I didn't want to express anything, just wanted to make a movie that I wanted that suits my understanding of crime movies! The absurdity of life is not its extreme reality, but that the reality itself has no value. The same is true for movies, especially author-type movies!"
...
After the event, Lu Xiaoran politely declined the request for dinner together and returned to the hotel.
Speaking of which, after the company went public, Lu Xiaoran wrote on Weibo that he would donate it to Beijing Film Academy's three sets of drama rehearsal halls and photography equipment worth 20 million yuan - why not donate money directly?
hehe…
What do you think?
It also donated a library at Shaanxi Normal University...
Why donate it to Shaanxi Normal University?
Because Lu Mingzhe is an associate professor at Shaanxi Normal University, oh, after donating, he became a full professor...
All major universities welcome Lu Xiaoran.
This time, Lu Xiaoran only attended Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen for three places - it was too busy.
The main propaganda tasks are all handed over to Liao Fan!
Liao Fan is really a praising Lu Xiaoran in various ways, and by the way, he revealed the news about Lu Xiaoran's new work:
"After reading the script of "Day Fireworks", I was very excited. Halfway through the script, I would be creepy. In a certain scene or a certain clip. This kind of opportunity is very rare for actors. They may only be just one or two times on the acting career, so I told the director that I must act in this play!"
"Director Lu always says that he is not good at controlling actors, which is really a modest statement. He is the Venetian actor himself and he is very experienced in controlling actors!"
"For example, the restrictions on actors are very small, and it is very relaxed to make you do whatever you want. Moreover, he has already communicated with the actors in a complete manner before filming, in order to save time for communication on the spot."
"Before filming "Day Fireworks", he made a complete script reading with us, allowing us to find the relationship between the characters and the characters ourselves..."
"I don't know how to be a director... I'm not talented enough, especially compared to Director Lu. I especially like his few paragraphs in this film, his personal expression of emotions, and his special poetry and painting."
"Will you cooperate in the future?"
"He has sent me a script, which is a commercial film called "Treasure Hunt Alliance", which is a big production, with actors from China, Japan and South Korea participating in the performance..."
...
"Treasure Hunt Alliance" has not yet been launched!
Lu Xiaoran is not prepared to shoot in the mainland this time - he always feels that the mainland has nothing to do with treasure hunting.
The cast is still in the process of planning, but Liao Fan will definitely participate. There is no need to give up the Berlin actor whom he has picked up with his own hands!
Moreover, Liao Fan is an actor who is both good and evil, and can play the right and villain, and it is versatile!
He is now discussing the "Star You" with Zhong Lifang.
“…Now many people ask me if you are crazy!”
"How to say it?"
"Win the Golden Bear Award, and then started filming an idol drama!"
"…What's wrong with the idol drama? I'm sure to make it into a fine product and even export it to Southeast Asia!"
"You have the ability to export to South Korea!"
"…What's the matter? "Shock Heart" can be sold to Korea!"
""Sharp Heart" is a Qing palace drama, with an export advantage!"
Lu Xiaoran was very unhappy: "What do you think are the TV series we export to the outside world? "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and "Scarlet Heart" are all braided dramas. Foreigners thought we were living in the Qing Dynasty, so what did they think?"
“…Ahem…”
Lu Xiaoran: "This is what Tangtang said. She had long said she wanted to play the leading actress in the idol drama, so I wrote "You from the Star" to her!"
"You really should see what your fans say!"
"…I saw it, and I was yelling to quit my fans..."
"Just you know!"
"…Sister Zhong, "Star You" invested 200 million yuan, and the advertising sponsorship we received was 180 million yuan. Beijing TV, Oriental TV, Mango TV and even CCTV have quoted... This project is definitely profitable!"
"Whatever you want, you are the boss anyway, just play whatever you want... By the way, Lao Mouzi signed a director contract. When will we hold a press conference?"
"So quickly? How much is the signing fee?"
“16 million…”
“…so cheap?”
"He is a director, not a capitalist like you, he has a pursuit!"
"Okay, you go and prepare and hold a press conference to welcome the arrival of the national tutor!"
"You have to come too!"
"…Of course, I will definitely be there!"
...
Weibo's recent daily active users have risen to 30 million!
The entertainment industry is really where accidents happen!
Think about it, even when the epidemic broke out, there was an idol shouting "Come on Wuhan" but selling masks behind his back - the idol Huang Moumou who came out of "In the Name of the Group"...
The absurdity of life is far more than the fiction of online writing!
Whether it is Zhao Wenzhuo, the Donnie Yen Bulletin incident or the knife-teaching, they all regard Weibo as the first base!
Chapter completed!
