For example, Zhang Wanting is good at the gentle and delicate technique, while Xu Ke is good at the clean, bright and concise technique. As for Lin Lingdong, it is a very cruel realistic technique. They are different, but each has its own style. There is no difference.
It is an exaggeration to say that as long as Xiao Ran can learn the abilities of one of them, it will be enough to become a good director.
Besides, he now consults famous directors when he meets them. However, he believes that all good directors have one thing in common - obscurity. That is to say, what they want to talk about, such as the relationship between men and women, is not very straightforward.
Instead of describing it, it is written through other dialogues and other aspects.
In fact, directors are very particular about their skills. Whoever stands where, what props are placed at what angles will have different effects. These are scene arrangements that are very particular about on-site performance. This is like "Comedy"
The director's manipulation of the white pigeons in "The King" and the appropriate placement of props can enhance the mood of the film.
Artistic conception is the essence of a film, and it is one of the labels for whether a director is excellent. Artistic conception is not only the atmosphere of the film, but also the things brewing in it that can only be understood and cannot be expressed. If Xiao Ran wants to become a good director, artistic conception is what he needs
mastered.
After all, the dream was to write movie text. In this regard, Xiao Ran was indeed unambiguous at all, and he quickly understood the challenges he needed to face. After passing this threshold, he would be able to truly become an outstanding director. If he could not
, then just work honestly as a screenwriter, or continue to start a business.
A few days later, the big day for fishing came. When Xiao Ran and Lin Qingxia arrived at the pier, they saw Brother Fa with a very familiar face and his future sister-in-law. Xiao Ran smiled slightly, and what was supposed to come finally came.
.
Silently, he allowed the smiling Fa Ge to introduce the capable man with a familiar face: "This is Xiang Qiang, you may not know him, he is also the boss of the film company! Well, this is Brother Qiang, I don't think so.
An introduction is needed.”
"Don't you dare not recognize me, the boss of Phantom Company, the number one screenwriter in Hong Kong!" Xiang Qiang laughed and stretched out his hand to Xiao Ran and Lin Qingxia, shook it and then said with a smile: "I can meet you and the most beautiful Chinese woman here.
It feels a little strange!”
"Nice to meet you. Brother Fa has mentioned you to me before and I have wanted to meet you for a long time." Xiao Ran smiled heartily and said to Xiang Qiang and Brother Fa: "I guess Brother Fa did this on purpose this time!"
After chatting and laughing for a while, Xiao Ran remembered something. Seeing that Xiang Qiang had a big brother, he borrowed it and made a phone call back to the company. He asked Wei Dongling to find Zhang Min as soon as possible and asked him to tell Zhang Min to come immediately.
"What's the big deal? You actually bothered Boss Xiao to call him personally on a day off?" With the relationship between Brother Yifa and Xiao Ran, naturally they can tease at will: "You can get on the ship now, it's getting late!"
"Wait a minute, by the way, you haven't introduced me to this one yet!" Xiao Ran looked at Chen Huilian, who had been leaning against Fa Ge, with a strange smile, and then pretended to be serious and said: "Fairy hair, don't hide it in a golden house.
Jiao, otherwise I would stab the newspaper office!"
Fa Ge chuckled. Who didn't know that Chen Huilian was his girlfriend? Xiao Ran said this just to make fun of them. Lin Qingxia couldn't help laughing. Xiang Qiang also looked at Fa Ge and the yet-to-be Fa Ge with a melancholy expression.
Sister-in-law's hair sister-in-law.
Fa Ge looked at Xiao Ran and Lin Qingxia, and was about to use them to fight back, but suddenly thought of Fang Ruoxin, the fatal obstacle, and shook his head and said nothing. However, he couldn't help but sigh for Lin Qingxia in his heart.
After waiting for a short time, the plump Zhang Min came. Xiang Qiang's eyes immediately lit up when he saw it. Xiao Ran introduced them to them, and then he drove the boat and left. Looking at the rippling blue water, Xiao Ran lay on his back.
On the deck, I looked up to the sky and couldn't help but sigh in my heart: This is the life I want.
Not long after the boat sailed out, Zhang Min and Xiang Qiang slipped to the stern of the boat, naturally to fall in love. Sooner or later, they would get together, and Xiao Ran was just adding fuel to the fire. Of course, it must be admitted that he
Ju also wanted to take the opportunity to build a good relationship with Xiang Qiang.
A close relationship is a must, but try not to get involved with Yongsheng in company affairs. Xiao Ran doesn't want Yongsheng to launder money and involve Phantom. Bah, bah, bah! Xiao Ran wants to slap himself hard. He is here to rest now.
Yeah, not here to work.
But he also didn't expect that after working for a long time, this habit became natural. Even if he didn't need to handle the specific affairs of the company, he still needed to formulate specific directions and strategies. Under such circumstances, he naturally didn't
Reason to relax.
Sunshine, blue sky, sea water, beauties... With all these things, Xiao Ran certainly hopes that he can have a good time. First, he and Lin Qingxia put on their swimsuits and jumped into the water to cool down, and then came up to bask in the sun. It felt great!
Lin Qingxia and Chen Huilian were talking about something together, while Xiao Ran and Fa Ge were sitting on the guardrail of the bow, chatting and laughing. Such a peaceful and peaceful day is indeed what everyone dreams of. Fa Ge looked at the depths of the sea and couldn't help but sigh: "
If you can do this every day, it will be a great joy in life.”
"In novels, there is always sadness before there is joy, and frustration before there is victory. It always requires a contrasting force to experience happiness more deeply!" Xiao Ran suddenly felt that all this was like a dream, a wonderful dream.
What he fears most now is that he wakes up from this dream and finds out that everything is false.
"I've always wondered why you want to be a film company?" Fa Ge put his hands on the guardrail and stared at Xiao Ran. He couldn't help but ask the question he had been holding back for a long time: "In fact, with your talent, you can definitely
You are prosperous, so you don’t need to work yourself out like this!”
Xiao Ran sighed deeply. How could he expect to work so hard in life? In the dream, he wandered around just to be free and close to nature. However, if he gave up on such an excellent opportunity to realize his dream, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
extremely.
He took a deep breath of the fresh sea breeze, and then answered solemnly: "Xinyi City's interests are unfairly distributed and will fall apart sooner or later. Lei Kaitai may want to be long-term, but his main business is not in movies, so the loss will not be big.
Pan Disheng has enough financial resources to acquire Shaw Brothers Cinemas or other cinema chains. But he has not made any long-term decisions, which only proves that he is just playing short-term in the film industry!"
"Shaw Brothers has ceased production. It may be possible to come out again in the future, but no matter how much money is invested, it is impossible to turn around. As for Jiahe, the family is big and has a big business. It is also the only local company with European and American distribution networks. It has to be
Said it has great potential." Xiao Ran talked eloquently, completely forgetting that he was on vacation: "It's just that it's bad, but it's a big business at home. If the market goes bad, Jiahe will definitely shrink its business and focus on other aspects besides production.
"
Xiao Ran's voice got louder and louder, and both Lin Qingxia and Chen Huilian who were not far away heard it. Listening to Xiao Ran's situation analysis, Lin Qingxia's eyes flashed with excitement, and her beautiful eyes turned to Xiao Ran again and again.
Fa Ge couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes and said with a tongue-tied mouth: "It's not as bad as you said. At least Hong Kong films are still booming. The three major companies are still very powerful. Besides, the market in front of us is
It’s so good, it’s very unlikely that it will go down! But you still haven’t said why you want to be a film company!”
Xiao Ran subconsciously shook his head slightly, looking into the distance with misty eyes, and spoke in a calm tone, but did not directly answer Brother Fa's question: "Everyone says that Hong Kong is the Hollywood of the East, but from my point of view, no one in Hong Kong knows that Hollywood is
How it works. Their movies are just like coming off an assembly line, being continuously distributed to the world through a distribution network that is dispersed around the world."
"Now the world has long been accustomed to accepting Hollywood movies, and this concept is deeply ingrained. Now that the North American market has completely collapsed, they can still make profits through the cultivated overseas markets."
Speaking of this, Xiao Ran couldn't help but sneer, which made Fa Ge, who was used to seeing his hearty smile, feel awkward: "Hong Kong movies lack such advantages. In the local market, major companies are doing their own things, and there is no perfect system. If
If the foreign market collapses, the local market will not be able to support it at all."
"But Hong Kong is Hong Kong, and Hollywood is Hollywood. Some things cannot be copied." Fa Ge was gradually led to think deeply by Xiao Ran's words: "In Hong Kong, there are Hong Kong rules, and it is useless to apply Hollywood rules! Besides, the Southeast Asian market
It is prosperous now, how can it collapse all of a sudden?"
"That's right!" Xiao Ran suddenly understood and slapped his thigh hard. Brother Defa reminded him, and he immediately thought of the crux of the problem: "The problem lies in the rules of the game. When we promote our movies, we only care about the small money and forget to
Instill the rules of the game into Southeast Asia and let them play by our rules!"
"It's like watching a movie. We can't let the audience choose which movie to watch!" Xiao Ran thought of the early years of the 21st century. Ever since "A Man and a Widow" became popular, urban comedies flooded the Hong Kong film market.
The movie company also claims that the audience needs light-hearted comedy and love to adjust their mood. This is really nonsense.
No matter at any moment, as long as movies still exist, they will definitely face various choices. There may be situations where a certain subject matter will be more popular for a while, but the audience will never reject other subjects.
"What film companies should do is not to blindly cater to the audience, but to make appropriate adjustments at the appropriate time to indirectly affect the audience's taste. At least in the mainstream market, they must ensure that this is done, otherwise chaos will definitely occur."
"Why can't foreign markets be lost? If they have their own film system and talents, they can still produce equally wonderful films." The more Xiao Ran said, the more he sneered. If it weren't for the vast majority of useless people in the Hong Kong film industry,
How could Hong Kong films fall into the situation they did later: "By then, Hong Kong films will be just like Hollywood's current inability to achieve success in Hong Kong!"
"If the quality of the films sold to them is low and the film producers cannot make money, the requirements will become more and more stringent until one day they are no longer profitable. By then, Hong Kong films will be... dead!" Xiao Ran's tone was different from that of others.
It's sad to say it's more sarcastic. It's sarcastic that none of the currently shrewd film businessmen can see this imminent crisis.
Within a month after the release of "Kung Fu" in 2004, not a single new movie was released in Hong Kong. From mid-May to mid-June 2005, not a single movie was released, not even a super bad movie. If we talk about Hong Kong movies,
Wanting to die is not necessarily an alarmist statement.
The more Lin Qingxia and Brother Fa listened, the more frightened they became, and the more they listened, the more their expressions changed. When they heard the last sentence, their hearts jumped suddenly. As soon as they looked at Xiao Ran with shocked expressions, they heard Chen Huilian curious.
He stared at a yacht not far away on the starboard side and shouted: "Hey, that person looks familiar!"
When Xiao Ran heard this, he turned his head and looked at it. He was surprised at first, and then suddenly became angry...
