Chapter 113 New Movies and Casting

The battle with Zhao Gege ended with Jiang Pei'an's complete victory.

As for what happened to Zhao Gege, Jiang Pei'an did not go into it in depth.

He is now famous in the country.

Today, China still has a more respectful attitude towards famous foreign directors.

Foreign monks are good at chanting scriptures, and in this era it is basically suitable for all walks of life.

This is probably how mainland directors developed, with the fifth generation rising in the mid-to-late 1980s.

The 1990s were their peak and the peak of Chinese art films.

The sixth generation, represented by Lao Jia, rose in the late 1990s, and the 2000s was their peak.

However, Chinese movies are seriously dying, and there is no imagined generation that is stronger than the next.

On the contrary, the overall performance of the sixth generation is relatively poor.

Compared with the fifth generation, the sixth generation is more impetuous.

This has a lot to do with their academy.

At first, there was no complete film teaching system in China.

So major universities began to piece together and absorb nutrients from abroad.

What was taught in China at the beginning?

Performance teaches Stanislavsky, director teaches Soviet epic films.

How about "Battleship Possibly"?

It's so awesome! It can be called the top 100 film history.

But in fact, except for students studying film-related majors, who can insist on watching it?

Later, I gradually went abroad to communicate with the West. Everyone saw:

Alas, European modernist art films are awesome.

Going abroad is indeed beneficial, and I have learned real things again!

Then European realism is popular in various film and television universities in the country.

Learning from the east and learning from the west is the key to most people who have not yet understood the essence.

After all, when learning this thing depends on your personal understanding, the master leads you to the door, and practicing depends on your individual.

Some people get crooked as they walk...

So the sixth generation of directors was formed in such an environment.

Compared with the previous generations, they pay more attention to personal expression.

Add personalized elements to the movie, stylized things.

This is also art, but the key is who likes to watch it?

Just pull out a sixth-generation director and put their works on the big screen.

Within forty minutes, sleepiness swept over my head.

They disdain the incomplete artistic expression and commercial nature.

So I don’t know who became famous and went abroad to win prizes and gain fame.

The direction is tilted...

By the early 2000s, the form changed again.

People gradually discovered that art movies seem to be less popular than before.

Everyone began to value box office and liked the Hollywood style.

But at this time, major universities are busy expressing themselves, delving into art, and then studying Hollywood?

Is it just to make money when making movies?

Vulgar!

But something good is not enough to eat!

So some people proposed to combine art and business.

I want both box office and art.

Are there any such movies? There are, but not many.

Then learn, learn Hollywood at the box office, and art is used to express oneself.

Cameron's "Titanic" lets everyone see the dawn.

Love can still be photographed like this, and so many people still watch it!

Under such circumstances, famous foreign directors became the learning targets for everyone.

...

Jiang Pei'an's current identity is also considered a famous director in China...at least his value has been proved in terms of business.

But the embarrassing thing is that there is not a single movie he can watch in the country.

If it weren't for the Zhao Ge Ge incident, he would probably have been silent for a while.

There is no representative work that is famous, but it is a bit like Fan Xiaopang.

But at least Fan Xiaopang also has "Return of the Pearl" and "Apple".

What about him, nothing!

So, the next movie is very important...

At this time, he was sitting in Han Shanping's office.

Han Shanping is holding the script and movie storyboard written by Jiang Pei'an over the past few days.

He started to read the script with the script, and he looked very carefully, and his eyes became brighter.

The script is actually a very boring thing, it is different from the novel and the story.

The language is plain and the goal is to be accurate. Adjectives and rhetorical techniques are rarely used.

But Han Shanping still read it with relish until he was over forty points and put down the script without feeling satisfied.

"I'm Ge, I'll fight all the way. I'll kill you during this period, otherwise I wouldn't have given me such a script."

He was talking about the incident that Jiang Pei'an had been in a big splash recently.

Jiang Pei'an took a sip of tea and joked:

"Dr. Han, we have a good relationship, but don't reflect reality."

"Hahaha, you guys have a lot of ideas."

Han Shanping beat him up, Jiang Pei'an put down the teacup and asked;

"This movie is an action movie, but the plot is very compact. How does Dong Han think it is? Are you still satisfied?"

Han Shanping picked up the script and flipped it out again, his face full of smiles and said:

"Satisfied, very satisfied! The name "Hurricane Rescue" is also well-known and has a sense of urgency."

But he changed his mind and said:

"It's just that there are many scenarios involved. Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, and Europe have almost fought all over, and the front line will be very long!"

Jiang Pei'an nodded and said:

“It will be long, but worth it.”

Han Shanping nodded and asked:

"You probably have a budget in your mind, right?"

Jiang Pei'an stretched out three fingers and said calmly:

"Thirty million!"

"It shouldn't be enough?"

“Excluding actor fees.”

Han Shanping twitched the corners of his mouth.

The actor fee is still calculated, so the point here is a big deal.

However... Han Shanping's hand rubbed the four big words "Hurricane Rescue" in the script.
