1339. Comedy, Thriller, Crime

While looking at the materials Dai Xinyue handed over, Wang Yifan couldn't help but glance at Dai Xinyue more.

Although there were only three people on the list, it had to be said that Dai Xinyue definitely put her heart into it this time.

Because, as we all know, if a director wants to be successful, especially at the beginning, he must not be too wild.

Although, when it comes to Chen Hang, Wang Yifan and other great directors at this level, they can no longer be limited to a certain theme.

But for directors who have not really achieved success, a bird in hand is not as good as a thousand birds in the forest!

And the three candidates given by Dai Xinyue.

Fu Rong, who is good at comedy movies, has had good results in the past.

And they're all low-budget movies with a small fortune!

Although there are no big hits, in general, Fu Rong's label is very obvious, that is, this is a comedy director!

Great directors, great directors, although the top box office in China has risen to more than 5 billion and close to 6 billion.

But most of the time, the threshold for a big director recognized by everyone is still 2 billion at the box office!

In fact, at present, there are only a few domestic movies with more than 2 billion yuan.

And it can almost be said that most of them were shot by those big directors that everyone is familiar with.

And a movie with a box office of 2 billion yuan can drive the industrial chain at least several times.

The influence of such a movie is not comparable to a movie with a box office of 2 billion yuan.

This is why great directors have become a scarce resource that major giants are vying for.

After all, there are only a few people in total, and if there is one more or one less, the difference will be huge.

Closer to home, the second candidate, Fang Xiongfei, was born in "bad domestic horror films".

In fact, don't underestimate these Fang Xiongfeis, because these directors, although they don't have any outstanding achievements.

But in fact, they are the ones who know how to control costs best, and they are better at playing routines than anyone else!

Generally speaking, bad domestic thriller movies, this kind of movies, are usually tricks.

And this kind of movie usually needs to strictly control the cost.

First of all, for this type of movie, the box office ceiling is very limited.

Therefore, if Fang Xiongfei wants to continue filming, he must maintain a profit, because there are too many directors of this type!

If he can't do it, he will be competed by others.

Therefore, cost control is the first thing they have to do.

Secondly, these kinds of movies are actually playing tricks.

Such as swimming pool series, beach series, bathroom series and so on.

It can be said to be the favorite series of domestic "horror blockbuster" directors.

Why?

First of all, most of the domestic thrillers are tricks, but you can't really not give some benefits.

But it can't really be made into a restricted-rated movie on Hong Kong Island.

Then this scale needs to be well controlled.

It is necessary to allow LSPs to eat ice cream and feast their eyes, but it must not be too explicit.

Swimming pools, beaches, bathrooms, etc. are the simplest reasons, because in these occasions, you can sell meat and balls openly.

But it will be relatively reasonable!

For a director like Fang Xiongfei, it can be said that to a certain extent, he is good at more things!

Of course, the layout will definitely be relatively small, because there are so many films of this kind, so it is obvious that thinking will be restricted most of the time.

However, this did not hinder Wang Yifan's admiration for Dai Xinyue's vision in choosing people.

Yes, this Fang Xiongfei looks inconspicuous, but in fact, this kind of director is the most worry-free.

For this kind of director, it may be difficult for him to really become a great director, but it is very suitable to plant the flag in domestic genre films.

For the last one, Mi Huayuan, Wang Yifan couldn't help laughing.

This is an old acquaintance.

Mi Huayuan, as a director who has been in Hollywood for many years, to be honest, Wang Yifan is also a little strange, why Mi Huayuan is in China, and the opening story is Wang Zha, but in the end, he took a path that he can't understand.

Everyone knows that directors on computer screens yearn for the small screen, and directors on the small screen yearn for the big screen.

This can be said to be a chain of contempt.

Big screen movie directors are at the top, followed by television directors.

Then came the directors of major online movies and online dramas.

As a result, Mi Huayuan continued to cultivate deeply in online dramas.

Since he failed a big screen work, he actually directly took root in the online drama market.

"How does Director Wang feel?" Dai Xinyue looked at Wang Yifan and asked.

These three candidates were carefully selected by her.

Fu Rong doesn't need to say much, this is the direct director of Times Light and Shadow.

Moreover, Fu Rong is good at comedy movies. With the arrival of the post-Lin Tao era, domestic comedy movies can really be said to be in short supply.

Yes, unlike the previous life, in this world, comedy film directors are really scarce.

And the market definitely needs comedy, and comedy movies are also one of the best choices for small and big.

Then there is Fang Xiongfei, although this is an old fritter, but Fang Xiongfei has served Times Light and Shadow for many years. It can be said that no one has dug him, but he has never moved the hole, and his own characteristics are quite obvious.

Of course, in fact, Fang Xiongfei is the one who is really accompanying him, because the genre that Fang Xiongfei is good at is precisely the most difficult subject matter in China.

The last one was Mi Huayuan. Thinking of Mi Huayuan, Dai Xinyue also shook her head. To be honest, Mi Huayuan could be said to be the most promising person to become a great director.

Because he has a very high starting point. Although he was not well-known in Hollywood, after returning to China, his first online drama ushered in the era of high-quality online dramas.

It's just a pity that I don't know what Mi Huayuan thought. In fact, after his movie failed, Times Light and Shadow, or other film companies, gave him other opportunities.

But he refused, and instead devoted himself to online dramas, out of control.

This makes people extremely puzzled.

"Great director of comedy movies, why does Mr. Dai want this Fu Rong to follow Lin Tao's path?" Wang Yifan asked with a smile.

Dai Xinyue nodded with a smile and shook her head again: "Lin Tao's comedy is Lin Tao's, and others can't imitate it, but the audience definitely has a great demand for comedy movies, and at present, with all kinds of blockbusters coming out one after another , On the contrary, it is a comedy movie, which has been ignored. I think comedy movies still have great potential!"

Wang Yifan nodded.

In fact, it is true. Even in the previous life, comedy movies can be said to be the first to explode, but later, with the emergence of blockbuster movies of various themes, comedy movies have become much less.

"Then what about Fang Xiongfei? What does Mr. Dai think?" Wang Yifan was quite curious.

As we all know, even in Hollywood, to be honest, thrillers belong to a certain niche theme movies.

For this type of movie, the ceiling is visible. Although the profit can be expected, and the return on investment is also very good, it is difficult for this type of film to produce a great director.

Especially in an environment like this in China!
