Huayu since 1980

Chapter 940 Three Golden Chapters ([-] daily updates, please subscribe~)

The light rain, like broken beads, hit the bluestone street and the woman's oil-paper umbrella.

A raindrop turns into several raindrops.
Pedestrians on the street hurried past, and the two stood looking at each other.

The woman is naturally the female lead played by Yu Feihong.

The eyes of the two are like forever
"What are you going to do?" Principal Gu looked at Yu Feihong and asked.

"Kill you!"

"why?"

"Because you are a child of the night!"

"What is a child of the night?"

"The messenger who brought darkness to this world."

"But I didn't do anything!"

"I know."

"Then can you not kill me?"

"can!"

The two had questions and answers, like a pair of friends who haven't seen each other for many years.

"That's good, I'll deliver the food first!" Principal Gu said with a smile.

Since then, there has been a woman in fluttering white clothes next to Principal Gu.

"I finally know why Lao Wu's movie was made in two parts!" Zhang Yimou said seriously.

Chen Kaige also nodded, "Old Wu, this is a film based on a character's growth experience."

Tian Zhuangzhuang also said: "This kind of movie is not easy to make. If it is done well, it will be an epic masterpiece. If it is not done well, it will become a long and boring movie!"

All three of them are the most discerning directors in China now, and the film has only passed 30 minutes, and they still can't tell whether the film is good or bad, but in the current domestic film storytelling environment Next, the three of them are still interested in continuing to read.

Instead, it was Zhang Jianya on the side, with a playful smile on his face.

Chen Kaige asked curiously: "What are you laughing at, kid?"

Zhang Jianya said: "I have to admit, the three of you are the top directors in the country in terms of honor, but you have overlooked one thing!"

Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou, and Tian Zhuangzhuang were stunned and asked, "What is it?"

Zhang Jianya said: "In my opinion, Lao Wu has no idea of ​​making an epic movie at all, and this movie cannot become the kind of successful movie you mentioned."

All three were taken aback, no one thought that Zhang Jianya would say that.

Zhang Jianya didn't wait for them to continue asking, and said directly: "Epic movies will certainly become famous movies in the history of movies, but this movie may not be worse than the traces left by an epic movie in China!"

"How to say?" Zhang Yimou asked.

Zhang Jianya pouted at the audience behind and said, "Look at their reactions!"

The three of them subconsciously turned around and took a look, and found that the audience in the theater was watching the movie seriously, but is there anything strange about this?
Zhang Jianya explained: "Let me ask you, from the beginning of the movie to now, how many times have you heard the exclamation?"

The three of them recalled for a while, and there were indeed multiple exclamations in the middle.

"Think about it again, where did most of the audience exclaim?"

Among the three, Zhang Yimou was the first to react and said, "I know what you mean!"

Zhang Jianya smiled.

Chen Kaige and Tian Zhuangzhuang showed puzzled expressions.

This time it was Zhang Yimou who explained to them: "We all miscalculated Lao Wu's thoughts on this movie, and we did not see this movie as an ordinary movie fan. Wu should be making that kind of epic movie, but from the beginning of this movie, it is not these things that attract the audience."

Chen Kaige and Tian Zhuangzhuang also showed stunned expressions.

Indeed, at the beginning of this movie, the situation in Liangren County was used to quickly substitute the audience into the story, and then various special effects of the movie appeared, and then the audience at the scene, I was quickly attracted by the special effects of the movie.

Chen Kaige once even studied in Hollywood for a period of time, and said: "Isn't Lao Wu a bit out of character?"

So is Grange.

"The most attractive part of the movie should be his story itself, rather than relying on those gorgeous special effects to let the audience enter the movie theater, isn't Lao Wu just messing around!"

Although there is no such thing as a popcorn movie nowadays, after Zhang Jianya's explanation, they also understand that Wu Jianye is shooting such a movie.

Zhang Jianya said indifferently: "If you want to talk about you guys, I have known Lao Wu for so long, why have you never guessed what Lao Wu really thinks, especially Lao Mouzi, this movie is still an art consultant , when you were on the set, you never talked to Lao Wu?"

Zhang Yimou asked subconsciously: "What is Lao Wu's real thinking?"

Zhang Jianya said: "I remember when we were still in school, Old Wu said that as a director, you must first be responsible to the audience, secondly be responsible for your own investment, and finally be responsible for your own ideas!"

The three nodded, and said: "That's right, Lao Wu did say that, it's just that Lao Wu's current status, shouldn't he return to his roots more, his previous movies have depth, Isn’t it good if it has a box office? Why do you want to make such a movie now?”

Zhang Jian nodded and said, "His previous films were indeed very successful, but don't forget, how many directors can make such a top-notch film?"

"I talked to Lao Wu before. Although he is the boss of Tangting Culture, he doesn't need to be responsible for investors. In fact, everyone knows Lao Wu's character. You don’t have to be responsible for the audience, you just need to be happy.”

"I believe that such an old Wu will definitely be able to make films that are at the top of the art film pyramid."

"But you have all forgotten something that Lao Wu also said, that is, the development of the domestic film industry. Nowadays, the best film industry in the world is Hollywood, but it is not their art that really makes Hollywood films spread across the world. Movies, but those so-called blockbusters, these blockbusters help Hollywood movies to charge forward."

"My own idea is that Lao Wu will use the simplest method to tell domestic filmmakers what kind of movies can sell money."

"A movie that attracts the audience's attention is a movie that sells money!"

"The current "Eternal Night" may not show the depth of the story well in the future, but I believe that it is definitely a real feast in terms of film vision."

If Wu Jianye was there, he would definitely clink glasses with Zhang Jianya.

The fifth and sixth generation directors in China, even the later directors, actually have few who can make their films go outside of China.

For those foreign filmmakers and audiences, Huaxia films will never become mainstream films, and can only be disseminated in a small range.

In fact, they have never really watched domestic movies seriously.

At the beginning of the 21st century, the Chinese film industry started to take off, and the number of theaters began to increase. Foreign filmmakers also began to pay attention to Chinese films. At that time, if you asked foreign filmmakers which Chinese filmmaker they most wanted to cooperate with, everyone would say Said it was Zhang Yimou!
In the era when Wu Jianye was reborn, some reporters asked Hollywood superstars, such as Vin Diesel in "Fast and Furious", or Dwayne Johnson, who they most wanted to work with, and they would say Wu Yu.

It's not that they've actually seen these guys' movies, or enjoyed their movies.

It's just that at that time, they were the most popular filmmakers in the country, so saying that was nothing more than showing that they knew more about Chinese movies and pleasing Chinese movie audiences.

Ordinary Chinese movie fans can name at least a few or even a dozen Hollywood stars, as well as their masterpieces.

But if you ask overseas audiences, they know a few Chinese movie stars, except Cheng Long, Li Lianjie and others of the older generation.

How many more can you name?
Still the same sentence, Huaxia Film wants to go out, if it only shoots those so-called art films step by step, it should never think about going out.

The first impression that a movie gives the audience is the overall visual effect. After ordinary audiences are visually attracted, they will enter the story.

It's like writing online novels in later generations.

Ordinary readers have very low patience with newcomers, and basically judge in the first three chapters whether they will continue to read this novel.

So for new writers, there is the so-called golden three chapters.

But in fact, those masters of internet literature don't have that much recognition for the so-called three golden chapters!
In fact, no one is wrong. Newcomer authors need to quickly make readers like their novels, and most readers are more tolerant of great authors, so great authors can better prepare their own stories. I was worried that the beginning would be too dull to persuade readers away.

Wu Jianye is now shooting the movie "Eternal Night" to give domestic filmmakers a choice.

If you really want to use movies to make money, if you can’t make a good story, then you can make money by finishing the screen and special effects of the movie first.

At this time, domestic movies are like those who get up early in the online literature world. Don’t worry about how many classics can be produced, but use the amount first to cultivate the audience. Online articles can be read, everyone is reading, that is the best!

As if to verify Zhang Jianya's words, the development behind the movie "Eternal Night" is impeccable in terms of graphics and special effects. Coupled with the tense and compact story content, the audience has no thought to think about the depth of the story. .

In the middle part of the movie, it mainly focuses on telling the principal Gu, getting along with the eight monsters in Liangren County, and knowing some of their past stories.

How did the two of them, He Yan and Jiang Yu, settle down and become friends through a short story.

A glance with Yu Feihong is an eternal love story.

In fact, these are the three most important emotions in the movie.

The relationship between Principal Gu and the Eight Monsters is a metaphor for family affection.

He talked about friendship with He Yan and Jiang Yu.

And Yu Feihong is naturally love!
At the same time, it also explained the reasons for the emergence of Liangren County, the relationship between the Eight Monsters and Liangren County, and naturally there is also a bridge of Principal Gu's cultivation.

Especially in the part of Principal Gu's practice, Wu Jianye used the special effects of movies to the extreme of this era. All kinds of fantastic fairy-tale special effects made the audience's eyes glued to them.

What caught their attention the most was that Principal Gu was sent to a valley full of ferocious beasts, where there were all kinds of ferocious beasts from the Classic of Mountains and Seas. When those real ferocious beasts appeared in front of their eyes, they were so shocked , is difficult to express in the story itself.

When entering the second half, the appearance of Liu Yijun also represents the appearance of the villain in the movie.

At the same time, the film also explained the background of Emperor Ming behind Liu Yijun. Emperor Ming is the ruler of this country and the existence closest to the gods.

Emperor Ming was not a bad guy in the traditional sense, and was even called the Lord Ming by the people.

But Emperor Ming also has his own principles, that is, no one can break the existing rules of this country, and at the same time, the identity of Principal Gu is revealed little by little.

It turned out that through Emperor Ming's calculations, the character Gu Principal was sent by God to descend into the eternal night. After the eternal night descends, the world will be plunged into darkness, and it will take thousands of years for such darkness to return to light!
Thousands of years are enough to kill 99% of the humans in this world!
So Emperor Ming wanted to get rid of Principal Gu.

And Liu Yijun is the one who made the move!

"We won't help you in this matter. If we act, Emperor Ming will lead his army to attack Liangren County, and Liangren County will cease to exist at that time," Chen Wei said.

The eight monsters don't have deep feelings for the people in Liangren County, they just like the feeling of living here.

So in the first movie of "Eternal Night", Liu Yijun is actually the real anti-number one!
Thunder roars!

Liu Yijun rode a black snake and finally came to Liangren County.

"Come out and die!" Liu Yijun's voice covered the entire Liangren County.

Principal Gu, holding a long sword, soared into the air, facing Liu Yijun.

The fighting process between the two is full of various movie special effects, flying swords, spears, reflecting each other, mountains, and seas rising out of thin air.

This kind of picture, coupled with the intense soundtrack, makes the audience addicted to it. This is a movie picture that has never appeared in a Chinese movie.

As Zhang Jianya said, even if the story of this movie is a bit weak, the picture of the whole movie is enough to make this movie leave a strong mark in the history of Chinese movies.

In the end, of course, Principal Gu defeated Liu Yijun.

"The Son of the Night is a bad luck brought down to destroy the common people. Killing you alone can save the common people. I will not give up!" Liu Yijun roared angrily.

Principal Gu: "Even though I am in Liangren County, I have never killed a single person. How can you say that I will destroy the common people?"

After the final collision between the two, Liu Yijun fell into the sky.

Principal Gu returned to Liangren County, but at this time, everyone in Liangren County no longer looked at him the same way as before.

And as the screen turned, Emperor Ming also opened his eyes on the top of the mountain: It seems that he has to go there himself!

The movie screen came here, and the screen stopped abruptly
The movie is over, so stay tuned for the second part of "Eternal Night"!
ps: The description of the movie will definitely make some friends not very satisfied with this story. Huangshan first said sorry. After all, if the whole story is told, it is estimated to be a novel of 500 million words. I hope to write this story in the future present to everyone!
