Chapter 374: Talking About Film Creation

Seeing that Yang Lingyue was unwilling to talk more about his affairs, Jiang Wen did not force it. He came to express his gratitude. He and the screenwriters were quite satisfied with the plot synopsis of "The Thief of Officials" that Yang Lingyue sent him before the accident.

Shu Ping, in particular, spoke highly of it, and many parts coincided with each other. Now, based on this, we have begun to modify and add content.

The topic was brought to Ning Hao, and he didn't hide his clumsiness. He pondered for a while and then started to talk.

"During the time after you returned to China, Nana, I, and a few friends went to Tibetan areas to collect wind. We saw local herdsmen offering sacrifices to the sky by feeding the falcons with the feces of some animals.

I talked a lot with them, and one thing is that they said that the wealthy people in the Middle East like to raise these things, and there are many poachers who have learned their method of offering sacrifices to the sky to lure these falcons into smuggling and selling.

I had some ideas at that time, and I also thought that before filming "Green Grass", I stayed on the Sino-Mongolian border for a while to get a feel for it.

The place was desolate and inhabited. It could be said that it was far away from the crowd and modern civilization, and it had discovered some changes of its own.

On the one hand, my vision and hearing began to improve, and my awareness of the natural environment became stronger;

On the other hand, my communication skills are getting weaker, mainly because it is no longer necessary.

Shortly after returning to society, the changes came back, and those changes left their mark then.

As soon as the two were connected, I thought of making a film about human nature. It’s what happens when human animality and sociality collide. "

"Interesting, animal nature is the innate instinct of egoism, and social nature is the altruism of acquired education."

Jiang Wen was a little surprised. This was the first time he heard this from Ning Hao, a new-generation director. He really had something to say, and his works had good reputation and box office. This was also the reason why he wanted to make "The Thief of Officials". Men can really make money too.

Jiang Wen once said after filming "Looking for a Gun":

“I don’t think being a director is such a profound thing. Many people do it too easily. They can just stand back and no one else can see whether it’s good or bad.

After you actually do it, you will find that many people are just shit and nothing!

If you take him somewhere else, others will immediately see that he is nothing. But if he becomes a director, you can hide him for more than ten years and you won't be able to tell.

Because I do find that many people just come out and put it in the sun and see that it is nothing. "

Ning Hao scratched his head and said with a smile. "Director Jiang summed it up well."

Yang Lingyue was thinking about what Ning Hao said about his experience at the Sino-Mongolian border, which was very similar to when he was in a coma...

Marco slapped his forehead and suddenly realized: "This can be made into a road movie."

Xing Aina stroked her hands and smiled and said, "Yes, that's what we thought. The script was also written according to a road movie."

"I'm telling you, big boss, tell me what you think. I can count on the investment you promised."

Seeing Ning Hao's somewhat proud eyes, Yang Lingyue came back to his senses and was about to speak when he heard Ma Ke say:

"Half of it when we meet."

"Easy to say, easy to say. "The Thief of Officials" also adds two to one to make five."

After Yang Lingyue said something perfunctory to Ma Ke, he continued: "Haozi, me and, well, a senior once said, don't be too profound. Of course, your balance in this aspect is not bad, at least it is much better than mine. I What I want to tell you is: Don’t be too arrogant, be positive.”

Jiang Wen felt that Yang Lingyue was criticizing Sang and Huai, and he had evidence.

"Put it down, it seems like your movie promotes positive energy." Ning Hao complained with a sideways glance.

Marco retorted with a smile: "You see, the photos taken by Human Soul Yue are not all positive energy. It's a good word, and it means a lot."

Only then did a few people realize that it was indeed a good word and quite general.

Ever since, it was nonsense again.

During this period, Jiang Wen did not mention "The Thief of Officials" at all, but Ma Ke mentioned the investment.

"The original plan is very happy, half the proportion of the Emperor's family. If you want to vote, how much will it cost?"

"It's the same. The two major families must pay as much as I pay."

Yang Lingyue made a fist-clenching gesture and laughed after speaking.

"Haha, the more you pay, the more you earn." Jiang Wen agreed and laughed.

The other three people looked confused as to what was going on.

However, neither of them gave an explanation. It was just that the investment ratio had been temporarily decided. The script was already completed and it was early, so the specific investment amount could not be determined.

Then they talked about "The Wind". After all, Jiang Wen and Ning Hao more or less talked about their own movies.

When talking about why Hanamaki’s TV series and movies started filming almost at the same time were all about espionage, Yang Lingyue said:

"It's a 60th anniversary gift. I don't have the ability to shoot big scenes, so I can't bring Director Zhang over to be the assistant director. The spy war genre is different. It tests the screenwriting ability more, which happens to be what we are good at. That’s it.”

Marco said rather sadly:

"You don't have to shoot big scenes, you can also shoot some specific small-scale battles. There are many veteran soldiers who have very exciting experiences. For example, "Lu Bu in the Army" Lu Junsheng, who is 1.92cm tall, fought in a hand-to-hand combat and killed 27 Japanese soldiers in a row.

His deeds in other aspects are also shocking. He was named a national combat hero at the National Heroes Conference and won "first-class military merit" eight times in his life. I have mentioned this before, but the official opinion is that it cannot be filmed. "

"It's not typical. Others can't learn from it. It has no promotional significance."

The more Yang Ling understands the official’s thinking, we are always reserved. If we were in Bangzi Country or Asan Country next door, we would want to film such deeds every year.

"Not only that, many viewers will think that this is a magical drama, a compilation. The scene of the ambush of the observation group in "Bright Sword" was just a battle fought by the brigade commander, but it was still filmed, and it was said to be fake. It's awesome." Xing Aina agreed.

Yang Lingyue thought to himself, what does this mean? In "Wolf Warrior", the military deeds of Wu Jing loading one hand and trapping cannonballs with wires, which have been broadcast countless times on military channels, can be criticized as "magic dramas", let alone those.

Oh, by the way, there are also kelp-trapped submarines and smog-proof lasers that have been taken out of context and ridiculed...

Jiang Wen said with a smile: "Cognition is curved. This is normal. It's not good to blame the audience for it. You always have to experience something before you can choose to believe it. When I filmed "Beijingers in New York", I was very interested in going abroad. At the peak, there was a story about living in a basement in New York. At that time, some people said it was deliberately smearing the United States."

“Our country’s guidance in this area is particularly poor. I think we still need to accelerate this development curve. In this process, there will always be some talents who will be subtly influenced and run away. These are the capitalist roaders in the new era. ”

Yang Lingyue said this thoughtfully.
