What kind of bad thoughts can the director have?

On September 9, Yang Shu and his team returned to the capital with great reputation.

Three days have passed, "Peach" has a cumulative box office of 900 million, with a Douban score of 9.3 points, and a good reputation at the box office.

Yang Shu began to accept various interviews from the airport, and he was really overwhelmed.

After arriving home at noon, I couldn't rest at all, so I held a press conference in the evening to relieve the pressure of the interview.

A lot of media came, dozens of companies, big and small, and more than a dozen cameras were set up, which crowded the large conference room temporarily rented by Junqi Feiyang.

Both Yang Shu and the main creators participated. Liu Man won the award and was asked some questions. Sister Tao, Brother Hu, and Brother Chao also shared a lot of questions, but most of the questions were directed to Yang Shu.

In his previous life, he learned from the experience of his predecessors and stayed away from the media, which was relatively relaxed.

Regardless of business or life, public opinion plays the role of advertising and evaluation, and it is not irreplaceable. Advertising can be done with money, and evaluation can be accumulated based on strength. You just need to keep a low profile and patience enough, and you will eventually get what you deserve.

It is obviously not working now. Poplar has received attention in another evaluation system, so he must accept the rules of the game and continue to be judged and weighed by the media. If he does not cooperate, he is asking for trouble.

The reporters are obviously not Yang Shu's brothers and sisters, and entertainment journalists with pursuits are not satisfied with mindless flattery.

Therefore, after the regular questions such as the feeling of winning the award, the original intention and purpose of the creation were asked, some reporters began to ask more pointed questions to add drama to the press meeting.

"The three-day box office of "Peach" has reached [-] million. If this trend continues, it is likely to exceed [-] million, which will exceed the [-] million of the previous love movie box office champion "Peking Meets Seattle". What do you think of this?" trend?"

Yang Shu is more modest: ""Peking Meets Seattle" is an excellent love movie with a very good box office. The box office of [-] million is more than two years ago. If inflation is included, I don't think the box office of [-] million is the same. over it."

This is more true. The box office results should indeed take into account the inflation factor, and it is not authentic to only compare the data.

"Are you confident in surpassing "Peking Meets Seattle"?"

"I have confidence in the audience."

The answer was slick, but the report turned out to be: Yang Shu told the audience to work harder than "Peking Meets Seattle".

A reporter asked: "I noticed that many netizens think that "Peach" is not a love movie, or even an anti-love movie. The movie is full of ridicule and distrust of love. What do you think of this?"

""Peach" is a light comedy. Everyone may have different understandings of some plots. For a woman like the heroine Tao Zi who burns herself without hesitation, the feelings she gives cannot be said to be love."

"But as a choreographer, you arranged for her to die tragically. Isn't this a mockery of love?"

"Perhaps we can understand that Taozi loves others selflessly, but at the same time she should learn to love herself."

"Is this your view of love? You must love yourself before giving love?"

"Giving must be based on self-esteem and self-improvement, and love equally."

"And what about your own practice, which starts with loving yourself?"

This is obviously digging into a dead end, Yang Shu made a joke to resolve it: "If you love yourself too much, you should be considered gay, just be self-respecting and self-improving."

As a result, the report became: Yang Shu said that narcissism is homosexuality.

It is not surprising that the concept is changed secretly. Many reporters are so pissed, and everyone is under pressure from performance.

Since then, many topics have pitfalls, even if Yang Shu knows it well, he can't guard against it. No matter how he answers the reporter, he can push him into the trap.

The future creation plan is a key issue. A reporter asked: "Many directors seem to have the curse of winning. Once the work is recognized by the award, the creation will be in trouble. Do you have any worries about this?"

Yang Shu did not agree with the reporter's statement, otherwise it would be tantamount to agreeing that some directors who won awards before Jiang Lang had exhausted their talents.

This is a deadly pit, and it is easy for everyone to list names to check in.

"I don't think there is a so-called award-winning curse. Most of the award-winning directors I know have always insisted on creating works and trying different styles of works. We can't judge whether they will win awards in the future."

"Director Yang, I noticed that Xia Yu is the youngest film winner in Venice. He was 17 years old when he won the award. Fortunately, you are the youngest winner of the Golden Lion Award. You are only 22 years old. It can be said that there is still a long way to go in the future.

We all know that you are also quite creative in horror and fantasy, and you have made great achievements in songwriting. What are your next creative plans? Do you plan to continue to shoot romantic movies? "

That's a good question, and it's broad.

Yang Shu is indeed young, God knows how long his creative journey will be, this kind of uncertainty can easily cause people to worry about being short-lived.

Although he answered everything just now and denied the curse of awarding, in fact, many award-winning directors and actors were short-lived, and their subsequent creations were mediocre.

"Thriller and fantasy works will continue to be created, and the fifth season of "World Wonderful Events" has been planned, and the third season will be broadcast at the end of the year.

In addition, following "The Hidden Corner", we will still launch a series of works, which are already under planning. "

Such a good opportunity cannot be wasted, and Yang Shu took the opportunity to advertise.

"As for the songs, I will continue to sing and create. The new song written for Zhuang Zhuqing has been produced and will be released in the near future. Jiang Shiyu will also release new songs later."

As the leading promotional song of "Peach", "Butterfly" duet by Yang Shu and Sister Tao was very popular after its release, and it only started to decline after occupying the top spot for two weeks.

As a difficult song for chorus, this result is quite good.

However, the decline is temporary. After the news came back that "Peach" won the Venice Golden Lion Award, it rushed to the top of the championship again. It is still strong and fits well with the film's release.

Sister Qin said that Yang Shu is the only singer who has won the Venice Golden Lion Award, and is also the best singer and songwriter among the Venice Award directors.

So at present, the price of his singing on stage has risen to 190 million, which is slightly higher than the 170 million of Sister Tao and Jiang Shiyu, and 200 million is just around the corner.

Zhuang Zhuqing's "Learning to Meow" was completed last month, and it was originally planned to be distributed at the beginning of September.

Yang Shu expected that once the film "Butterfly" won the championship, he postponed it, so as not to rush together to affect the results. Now it seems that the decision is completely correct.

As for Jiang Shiyu's new song, it is indeed planned, and it won't be too late to release it at the end of the year.

The follow-up film plan that reporters are concerned about is not easy to answer.

Of course, the plan has been in place for a long time. Both "Warrior" and "Mulan" are big projects, but they will not be released until the next year at the earliest. "Mulan" may be later, so there is nothing to talk about now.

In particular, "Mulan" is quite special. It must find a way to enter the international market, and it cannot be released without any preparation.

In Venice, everyone chatted and compared "Peach" and "Lust, Caution", and the two award-winning works were even more evenly matched.

After returning to China, it changed. No reporter mentioned "Lust, Caution", and they were more concerned that "Peach" would break the box office record of Chinese romance movies, and they were all focused on making money.

This is also normal. The mainland film market has just surpassed Japan to become the second largest in the world. Everyone pays special attention to the box office results, and interest in the so-called European awards is fading.

Yang Shu was also a little unexpected in this situation, after all, the situation was completely different from the previous life.

In his previous life, he directly set a record of more than 12 billion with "Love Letter from the Kingdom of Heaven" and "Love Letter from No Two" in the same period, and no one will be able to break it for many years to come.

Now the time is more than half a year earlier. If the current record of [-] million is broken, it will not last long, and it will be refreshed in a few months.

The things he has experienced are very clear in his mind. The filming of "A Love Letter" and "A Love Letter from Heaven" both started in October this year, that is, next month.

At present, he has not heard any news about "Fu Er Love Letter". If there is no accident, the box office record of "Peach" can only be maintained until May next year, when the box office of "Fu Er Love Letter" will exceed one billion.

The glory is fleeting, and no one will remember the second child by then.

Because of this, Yang Shu had a new idea, and suddenly he was eager to win.

It's not 22 years old if you don't have the heart to win.

"Since "Mulan" is taking the first chance, we might as well grab another one."

He hopes that his works can maintain a Chinese record for a long time, and he also likes the title of pure love film master. Anyway, if he has time, why not spend three or four months filming "Love Letter from Heaven"?

Ready-made scripts, ready-made storyboards, plans, and ready-made resources.

And now is a very good time to announce, after all, everyone is making love letters, and if the announcement is late, it will become like following others' buttocks.

The decision was a bit hasty, but with confidence.

Yang Shu looked at Sister Tao and Liu Man beside him, and said abruptly: "As for the future filming plans, there are several, and they are already on the agenda. The next thing I will start to do is also a love movie called "" Love Letter from Heaven."

""Love Letter from Heaven"? What kind of movie is this?"

"The film with a different style from "Peach" will still be completed by the original crew, and the specific content is temporarily inconvenient to disclose."

The announcement was too sudden. Sister Tao, Liu Man and others had never heard him mention this work, and they all looked at him and smiled.

Will the new film be completed by the original cast?
But none of the original team knew that the lunatic and the genius were really one step away.
