Chapter 436, "I'm Not the God of Medicine"
Even if Li Yun said "I'm Not the God of Medicine" is a commercial work, not many people would believe it.
After all, from the perspective of subject matter, commercial works are not like this.
"Have you lost your forge ahead and started making niche literary films?"
At this time, Wang Chen sneered and laughed out loud at the so-called "I am not the God of Medicine"
The name and subject matter are some unknown movie works. At first glance, it is impossible to tell the audience. As for the so-called "Three-Body" TV series, it is even less heavyweight.
There is "Stranger Things" in Europe and America.
Hollywood has "Psychedelic".
Even Bangzi Country has a film "My Love from the Star" with a clear audience in preparation for filming.
This "Three-Body".
What the hell does the title mean?
The title of the script makes me feel like I don’t know what it’s called.
"Xie Qingya, Xie Qingya, the person you are looking for seems to be on the verge of running out of talents."
Wang Chen squinted his eyes. At this moment, his cell phone rang. Looking at the name of the caller, it was Zhang Mouzi.
Or because of "The Great Wall".
Sino-US co-production, with Hollywood's technical and personnel support, is a devastating blow to domestic products.
The movie, a Sino-US co-production, is incomparable.
"The Three-Body Problem? What does it mean?"
Liu Shanhe was also confused after learning about the TV plan given by Li Yun.
It’s not an IP adaptation. At first glance, you’d know it’s a science fiction TV series.
The name is filled with an unknown feeling.
At this time, Liu Shanhe also found the team for the "Wesley" series. The front-line team of Bayi Film Studio, plus Zhang Dahu, Yu Mingsheng, and Li Liguo, gathered here to discuss the script.
Starting with "Blue Bloods".
The narrative structure and rhythm are a bit like Luo Jialiang's Wesley, focusing on filming chapters that are different from those of the previous works.
Originally, none of the three directors were too keen on this - after all, the three of them are all directors who dominate one area. If they want to work together, how can they distinguish priorities? There is a high probability that no one will obey anyone.
However, after knowing whether the subject of the filming was science fiction or "Wesley", the three began to discuss it.
Ni Kuang, as a writer as famous as Mr. Jin in the last century, has an influence that is not inferior to anyone else.
Not only are these three directors his fans, at least they all grew up watching his works.
There is also a filter for Mr. Ni Kuang.
They who originally thought science fiction works were uninteresting now have some interest in them, after going back and forth.
So they joined the crew. The three of them were equally famous, and each was responsible for the part he was good at.
Characters, scenes, storyboards.
Everyone is responsible for the parts they are good at and complementing these parts. Coupled with the excellent script, what is interesting is that this TV series seems to be really interesting.
"No matter what The Three-Body Problem means, I believe that with Xiao Li's character, it will never be aimless." Zhang Dabeard teased: "Maybe it is really a work that can give a little surprise?"
From the furnace.
Then let the bullets fly.
It can be seen that Li Yun's ability in writing and directing is pretty good.
And this so-called Three-Body Problem and I are not the gods of medicine. It seems that the ones reported are self-written, directed and acted.
"I don't think Xiao Li can do the subsidy cheating thing. He still has his own pursuit of art." Yu Mingsheng also agrees with this statement.
"I discovered a very strange thing. The three of us obviously have nothing in common. If there is a cause and effect that can be connected, I am afraid that we have all cooperated with Xiao Li."
Li Liguo told the connection between several people with great interest.
The causal relationship between them is probably that they all have cooperated with Li Yun.
Everyone has a different experience.
This is really a somewhat emotional thing.
Whether it's someone as outstanding as Li Yun, or the interesting thing of working with Li Yun, it makes people think a lot.
He was clearly just a young actor under his control back then, but now he has grown step by step to where he is now.
I can only lament the ruthless changes of time.
One can also lament that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead.
but.
After all, he is just a young man.
Now in this sci-fi Chongyun Project, the Bayi Factory represented by the three of them should still have an advantage over Li Yun.
We have an excellent old IP.
A whole generation of fans has accumulated.
Moreover, the three directors Zhang Bearded, Li Liguo and Yu Mingsheng are also quite powerful gimmicks.
All three have their own fans.
They all have their own box office ratings appeal.
They are all well-known strong men in their respective fields.
At least in this science fiction subsidy, the three of them attracted enough attention.
Reboot Wesley.
Among the science fiction works this time, he is undoubtedly the best.
Many well-known actors also came to support the show.
Among them was a person who surprised everyone.
Chow Yun-fat Fat Brother.
This superstar from Hong Kong took the initiative to play the role of Wesley.
In addition to his love for Wesley's themes, he also wanted to get out of his comfort zone and try science fiction themes, otherwise Wang Jing would always ask him to go back and play the God of Gamblers.
He didn't want to continue being a gambler unless there was no money in his pocket.
All sorts of attitudes.
But some people still ridiculed Wesley.
For example, Wang Chen found it a little ridiculous. The reason why domestic science fiction needs subsidies is to stop people in the industry from chewing on antiques. As a result, domestic TV dramas still choose to chew on antiques.
No progress is seen.
ridiculous.
It's just a work plan that's so old that it's half buried in the ground. They are all works with themes from the last century.
They are nothing but withered bones in the grave.
It's still an antique thing.
It's just an old thing that's nothing to worry about.
And it's such an old thing who doesn't have to worry about it. He's already acting like a leader just after the project was established. How about such a science fiction project?
How is it not funny?
How can we defeat Western science fiction, which is forge ahead and constantly explores the unknown upper limit?
no way.
It can't be done.
But if you think about it carefully, your mood is indeed different. How many years did it take for China to have enough to eat? The United States had already landed on the moon.
Native Chinese themes.
It's better to adapt the history and romance of those old antiques.
Science fiction is not a field that people in China should get involved in.
"A science fiction work, and a modern literary and artistic theme. Every time he chooses the subject, it is impressive."
Liu Lili heard about the themes Li Yun worked on and was very impressed.
It can even be said to be a bit unexpected.
Science fiction has the Chongyun Project, which is subsidized. Although the name Three-Body Problem is a bit unclear, from the perspective of receiving subsidies, it is not too difficult for people to accept this matter.
And since I'm not the god of medicine, it's a bit confusing.
this subject matter.
It's just weird.
Sounds like you're following a literary path?
To be honest, it is indeed good for a director's ability to shine in literary and artistic films, but the core attribute of a film is actually a commodity.
This is actually why Liu Lili doesn't think highly of those domestic circles.
Directors of niche literary films, with few box-office hits, complain about nothing, and then compliment each other.
Three or two people gather to form the core layer of a circle.
Then it became a stinking place.
It's closed and dark. If the box office is not satisfactory, you will feel that this is the fault of the audience who don't understand the appreciation.
This is the current situation in the domestic circle.
A place that can definitely be called unknown.
In fact, Liu Lili is particularly disgusted with the attribute of literary films.
I am proud of the low box office, I am proud that others cannot understand it, and I say it is for winning awards, but in fact it is because the threshold for watching movies is so high that I don’t want others to understand it.
Art that is superior to others is not called art.
How can something be called art if it cannot be appreciated by others?
Today, Li Yun chooses to go into such a field.
It seems like I have exhausted my talents a bit.
At least that's what Liu Lili's intuition told her.
"I want to participate in Brother Li's Three-Body Problem, and I'm not the god of medicine." Liu Qianqian said frankly at this time.
Next, I accepted my own film appointments.
A work that seems to have no idea what it is called.
There is also a science fiction project that seems to be a subsidy-based project.
There aren't many good reviews.
If it were Liu Lili in the past, she would give a clear negative response.
But it's different now
She felt that how could she take a clear-cut stand against someone who had already achieved results?
Maybe as her ex-husband said, she should give her daughter some respect.
She is an adult and has the right to make her own decisions.
In other words, you have the right to make your own decisions.
For better or worse.
My own daughter has the awareness to bear it.
At this time, Liu Lili suddenly felt that her daughter might have really grown up.
Feeling happy and disappointed at the same time.
This feeling.
It’s really amazing.
"Well, I believe in Brother Li, and I am also working hard to catch up with him." Liu Qianqian said with clear eyes.
It’s Li Yun’s people who trust him, not just his script.
Frankly speaking, Liu Qianqian often couldn't tell whether Li Yun's scripts were good or bad - but she knew that the person she trusted was Li Yun.
Because I have a feeling of trust in Li Yun, I am now involved in Li Yun's script.
"When will you turn it on?"
"Well, "I'm Not the God of Medicine" should be turned on first."
"Well I wish you good luck."
This time, Liu Lili’s blessing is sincere
At this time, Li Yun was preparing to start filming "I'm Not the God of Medicine" at home.
"The Three-Body Problem" is produced by CCTV and requires an official team to produce it.
"I'm Not the God of Medicine" is a purely private project with a budget of about 100 million. The money earned from the previous "Let the Bullets Fly" was invested here again.
At this time, Li Yun also pulled together his own professional team.
Liu Qianqian plays the police officer - Detective Cao. As the sister of the protagonist's ex-wife, she takes the place of Yiwei Yi.
It's not like Li Yun didn't look for Yiwei Yi, but it seems that there is no "Brother Jiaqian" in the entertainment industry.
Liu Qianqian focuses on the path of a career woman, so it is good for her to play the police officer who investigates the "counterfeit drug case".
Lu Yiyi is played by Wang Chuanjun, the Wang Chuanjun in Love Apartment. This casting has left many people scratching their heads. Of course, the project itself is a bit confusing, and this puzzling casting also seems not to be very confusing. What a surprise.
At this time, Huang Mao's actor Li Yun really didn't expect it.
The person who came to contact me was Peng Yuyan, who came to contact him in the name of an individual actor.
I don’t belong to any company, come to contact Li Yun
In Peng Yuyan's words, it probably means that if he comes in the name of the company, he probably won't be allowed to come into contact with this script that seems a bit "unknown"...
And just right, if it's appropriate.
He also acted in "The Three-Body Problem" and "I'm Not the God of Medicine".
TV series and movies followed.
Li Yun once thought that the Huabiao Award could attract some actors of his generation, but what he didn't expect was that it could actually attract Peng Yuyan.
"Is that possible? You can't have even one of your eight-pack abs."
"good."
Peng Yuyan said calmly: "If you can do it, I can also do it."
What Li Yun saw in Peng Yuyan's eyes was the blazing flames of war.
He said that he came with the mentality of treating himself as an opponent - as an actor.
It doesn't matter.
Li Yun smiled slightly.
"We're waiting for you at the start-up site."
At this point, the team of "I'm Not the God of Medicine" has gathered together
Peng Yuyan, the protagonist's girlfriend, came to act as a supporting character.
Li Yun plays the protagonist ‘Cheng Yong’, a ‘medicine god’ who is also a ‘patient’.
Only by suffering first can one become a god.
How can one become a god in the world without experiencing human suffering?
Become the god of medicine.
This film seems to have not been very popular since it was first picked up.
Li Yun has also heard the comments of many people in the industry - there is hope for winning prizes, but business is doomed.
DC has the human god Superman.
Marvel has Loki, the God of Thunder.
Where did your ‘medicine god’ come from?
Commercial films seem to follow this logic. Under the same conditions, why should I choose you as my movie-watching object?
They are all ‘gods’, and I have more attractive ‘gods’ to watch movies with.
This is the logic of the market.
At this moment.
Li Yun started preparing for the start-up of I am not the God of Medicine.
This mortal.
Not as good as Thor's sledgehammer, not as good as the evil god Loki.
In this day and age where the Avengers are everywhere.
The movie "The God of Medicine" is a song that is very suitable for future generations.
A song called The Lonely Warrior.
The lonely brave man.
Move forward with loneliness.
Burn yourself in the eyes of others who don't understand.
Of course.
Li Yun would definitely not do something stupid like burning himself.
Because burning yourself to become a lone warrior is not something a smart person would do.
"I like your movie very much. If it is released, I will definitely watch it. But how can I put it, I still think this subject matter is a bit ahead of its time. It seems to reveal a kind of sadness. Can this feeling of being loved be filmed? , or in other words, being able to be empathized by the public is the key to having a box office.”
Lu Zhengguang is worthy of being an art connoisseur of the older generation.
He saw the problem in Li Yun's script at a glance.
From a rough script, this doesn't seem that positive.
"Whether it can produce the effect is my problem. If it can't be produced, then even if the movie is released again, I will accept it."
In fact, I am not a medicine god.
Li Yun knew what the most important factor of this movie was.
Is an actor.
It's acting.
Make the actor's character bring out the feeling of the character.
That's what makes this movie.
Wang Chuanjun.
He once starred in a TV series called Love Apartment.
As a TV star, his status in the industry is not that high.
Not to mention movie actors.
Even normal TV drama actors have a higher status than him, because what he plays is a sitcom, not even a drama.
The status of TV actors is also second-rate.
Unless, like Zeng Xiaoxian, there is a chance for him to escape from the prison of sitcoms.
He suddenly became a drama star.
Otherwise, his status is only a little higher than that of a variety show actor.
Oh no, in the eyes of many people, sitcom actors are just a type of variety show actor.
There doesn't seem to be much difference.
It doesn't seem to have much status.
Originally, he was prepared to sit on the sidelines in the industry and train himself to look for opportunities. After all, in the entertainment industry where every inch of land is precious, an opportunity is absolutely precious.
But now.
However, he was approached by the outstanding director of the Huabiao Award, the genius Li Yun.
That's right, he is a genius.
Among the younger generation of actors entering the industry, there may not be many people who don’t know Li Yun. In fact, Li Yun is already the idol of the younger generation of actors.
At least I know the legend in this circle.
Yes, maybe for big shots, Li Yun can only be considered a good person, and can only be called a wild horse that breaks in unexpectedly.
However, that also entered the vision of the big shot.
Most people are not qualified to enter the vision of big shots.
In other words, it takes a lot of money to enter the vision of big people.
And what about Li Yun?
He doesn't mix in any circles - he just chose the legendary difficulty to start.
But there are legends about him in every circle.
Every circle has his traces.
In the eyes of young people and the new generation of actors, he is very powerful.
At this moment.
Peng Yuyan looked at Wang Chuanjun in front of him. He didn't know how this guy, who was ordinary in both status and appearance, joined the crew.
But since it was Li Yun who chose him.
He must have made his choice.
What Peng Yuyan wanted to do was to compete with Li Yun on the same stage.
As an actor.
He had been holding back since the Legend of Sword and Fairy.
"Hello." Wang Chuanjun looked at Peng Yuyan somewhat flattered.
"Don't be so reserved. We will be partners in acting together for the next six months."
Peng Yuyan waved her hand.
"Okay."
"What are the arrangements for our director, producer, screenwriter and leading actor next?"
Peng Yuyan felt a little funny when she said it all in one breath.
This title is a bit too much.
In fact, Li Yun did make some arrangements. Just like the previous life of "Dying to Survive", there should be a link to go to the hospital to observe patients.
But after contacting the hospital, this thing can't be done.
