What kind of bad thoughts can the director have?

Chapter 113

Ning Song is not only a fan of Japanese national quintessence and has collected dozens of small hard disk movies, but also a fan of serious Hollywood movies.

When talking about the musician Tan Dun, he quoted the classic lines of Vito Don Corleone in "The Godfather": "He who spends a second to see the essence of things is the same as he who spends half his life unable to see the essence of things." , is destined to be a completely different fate."

Yang Shu understood what he meant. A person's success is inseparable from profound insight. Only when he sees the essence of the problem clearly can he make the right choice when encountering a problem.

For example, Tan Dun chose to compose "Heavenly Love Letter" this time, because he has a discerning eye to recognize talents, and his courage is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

For a composer who won the Academy Award for Best Original Score in 2001, to compose a new composition for a newcomer requires insight and courage.

When talking about things with Luo Xue that day, she said that some things are innate, such as temperament is mainly determined by genetics, which cannot be changed at birth.

This Yang Shu doesn't understand it very well, but he does know that the current psychology field generally believes that human temperament can be divided into four types: choleric, sanguine, phlegmatic and melancholic. Is it really unchangeable?

Is this conclusion too arbitrary? Some talented actors in the film and television industry have a variety of images and can play people with different temperaments.

But he has also seen a large number of excellent actors who can only play roles with a certain image, and it is not impossible to play other roles, but they are just not good, and it doesn't look like that.

In fact, he believes that temperament is not an innate thing, it can be changed through exercise like muscles, and it is directly or indirectly related to a person's living environment, education, and experience.

The so-called Tibetan ink on the chest is as empty as a grain, and the stomach is full of poetry and calligraphy, isn't that the case?
It is difficult for a person who has no knowledge and experience to have a noble temperament at all.

However, Luo Xue said that those are appearances, but what can be changed is the appearance rather than the essence, and even used Yang Shu's work "Beauty Tax" as a metaphor, the standard of beauty and ugliness can also be changed, and there is a poetic spirit in his belly The standard is also set by people.

Regardless of whether what she said was right or wrong, she did her homework seriously before meeting Yang Shu, and she is worthy of being a top student.

Teacher Tan obviously also has the ability to see the essence through phenomena. According to the godfather, this ability is also innate to a certain extent, otherwise it cannot explain why only a very small number of people can always make correct judgments and develop exceptionally outstandingly.

Anyway, Mr. Tan is a genius if he is willing to cooperate, and Yang Shu is willing to give money to say a few good things about him.

However, after careful analysis, it will be found that the three films that Mr. Tan composed before, that is, his martial arts trilogy, although the directors are all famous artists with different styles, the works themselves still have common characteristics. "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "The Banquet", although there are many fight scenes, they all have a lot of literary style in their bones.

Yang Shu is confident that "Love Letter from the Kingdom of Heaven" has achieved full literary style, and will even lead the way in the field of domestic romance films.

Teacher Tan's insight is reflected here.

Although the parts shot in August and September had already been cut, it took another week to cut all the poplar trees, and the previous work was also filtered to ensure completeness.

The length of the film is 115 minutes, and it is exactly 120 minutes and two hours with subtitles added in the later stage, which cannot be shortened any more.

On November 11st, the third day after Yang Shu led the team to Northeast China, Tan Dun returned to his alma mater, the Central Conservatory of Music, to accept the "Outstanding Alumni Award". He had contacted Yang Shu in the capital, but unfortunately missed the opportunity to meet and communicate. .

Then he has been helping student Jane Zhang hold the "Jane Zhang and Her Friends Concert" until the end of mid-November, and the next half month is relatively free, and has been composing "Love Letters from Heaven" wholeheartedly.

At that time, he said to Yang Shu: "I can write it in about a month. If you finish the filming first, you can dub the work first, and the sound effects should be done first. Finally, I will personally arrange the music and direct the band to perform."

This is his working style. Many composers only compose for movies, and writing a few or more than a dozen works will be considered as completing the task by handing over to the producer.

The composition work is relatively low-end and complicated. It is based on the original song and the content of the film, and the music is matched piece by piece, which requires a lot of cutting and editing work.

Everyone in the industry knows that Tan Dun, like many outstanding artists, is very picky about his work, just like the Yangshu film has to be edited by himself, and the arrangement is also done by himself.

He did it very finely, a certain syllable had to match a certain picture in the film, and even which high pitch was synchronized with a certain expression of a character in the play, he was very careful to make sure that there was no difference.

So just based on this point, it shows that success must not only depend on natural ability, but acquired hard work and seriousness also play a key role. Without the accumulation of these quantities, no matter how good the essence is, it will be wasted.

Tan Dun's work schedule is relatively full. Next, on January 2016, 1, he will conduct the National Symphony Orchestra to perform his works "Whispers of Wind and Birds", "Resurrection" and "Long Li Gelong" in the Great Hall. Rehearsals have to start a week in advance, so there will definitely be no time after New Year's Day.

Yang Shu notified him immediately after the editing was completed on December 12th. After two days of coordination with the National Symphony Orchestra, it was finally agreed that he would arrive in Beijing on December 7th to start the composition work.

According to Teacher Tan's arrangement, on the 15th he started to watch the film and arrange the music. After the compilation, the National Symphony Orchestra will rehearse and perform, and complete all the work within half a month. In this way, it will be connected with his subsequent performance work.

He also sent the four pieces of music that he had already made to Yang Shu. Jiang Shiyu played them on the electronic piano. Can mobilize emotions.

Liu Man asked Yang Shu: "Teacher Tan will hold a special session in the auditorium next month, should we buy tickets to join us?"

Naturally, I have to go. Not only will I have to work with Teacher Tan for half a month, but I will also have to deal with the National Symphony Orchestra for half a month. Knowing that there is a performance, how can I not go.

Not only will I go by myself, but I will also buy more tickets and catch a few stars who will be in Beijing to go together. All things in the show business circle are mutually accomplished. I believe that if Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang are in the capital at that time, they will also join in the show.

However, Mr. Tan is a representative figure of post-modern music in mainland China. His music and film music are two different things. Things that are too avant-garde are usually not easy to accept and digest.

Yang Shu heard it before, but was at a loss, and paraphrased Li An's words: "I don't understand, but I was shocked."

He couldn't understand it at all, and felt baffled.

Although the filming and production of "Love Letter from Heaven" is busy, it is impossible for Yang Shu to forget that the studio's cash cow "World Wonderful Events" is still on the air.

When the film editing was completed, the series had been broadcast for more than half a month, and the total number of effective hits had exceeded the first season, reaching more than 4000 million.

At this time last year, Yang Shu, Liu Man, and Jiang Shiyu had just returned to the capital from part-time jobs in The Legend of Miyue, and he only had more than 1 yuan saved from part-time work.

At that time, he was living in a youth hostel, and specially designed a little trick that is a bit embarrassing now that he thinks about it, to ask Ruhe for money, for fear that the other party will deliberately delay the payment and delay the time.

And Liu Man and Jiang Shiyu looked for cheap and convenient rental houses everywhere, and planned to set up a wonderful studio.

Thinking about it, it seems like a lifetime ago. In just one year, "Wonderful Events in the World" has been broadcast for two seasons, and the revenue will exceed [-] million yuan. At the same time, it has bought a house and finished filming a movie.

This development is not just a well-off life. We should be grateful to the relevant departments for sending him here.

On the day when the editing of "Love Letter from the Kingdom of Heaven" was finished, Liu Man took the initiative to hug Yang Shu: "In the past two days, I often think that all this seems to be arranged in the dark."

She just lamented the unpredictability of fate, and she might not really understand what she was talking about.

Yang Shu hugged her soft body, and it was rare that he didn't have any distracting thoughts: "Yes, there are arrangements in the dark."
