China Entertainment: The happiness of being a director is as simple as that

Chapter 95 093 Watts: This time, I will.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Lu Ping'an Road Airport sent Guorong off.

After the two agreed to meet in Bashu a few days later, Guorong entered the pass.

After leaving the airport, I signed autographs for a few movie fans who had the courage to come forward to ask for autographs.

Lu Pingan started the New Year's greetings trip with a good mood.

The main task in the first few days of the new year is to bring down a few relatives.

Now Lu Ping'an is also a big celebrity, and he can attract crowds wherever he goes.

When it was Chaoyang, a group of neighbors from the uncle's house had a heated chat with Lu Pingan.

The neighbors regard Lu Pingan as their own child.

While chatting, I scolded Lao Mouzi, saying that the movie was not good, and that it made our road too safe.

After scolding, he turned around and offered advice to Lu Pingan.

"Safe, next time you take a more joyful photo, and our whole family will go and have fun."

"How can a comedy movie be shot just as it is? Ping An's film is sci-fi, and he is a great director of sci-fi."

"The science fiction can't laugh? It's a comedy movie if you laugh, right?"

"Don't listen to her in Ping An, just shoot what you are good at, when the time comes, the whole street will join us!"

"..."

The aunts of the neighborhood committee who were chirping and blah blah made the uncle's house very lively.

Everyone left after eating.

Uncle also mentioned the movie at this time.

His proposal has a lot of reference meaning:

"Now that you have such a high-grossing movie in your hand, and you are still so young, the next one will do something that you are not very good at. The outside world will be more tolerant of you. Anyway, if you can't do it, you can go back to being good at it." Yes."

Lu Pingan wanted to say that he was actually "good at" everything, but he still accepted it humbly: "I know."

"Well, I think you can try to rely on our Chinese culture. The Chinese culture is so broad, so try it if you have the ability, carry it forward, and export it to foreigners."

That's really good advice.

Lu Pingan thought so too.

What is the film for.

Winning awards and box office are just one aspect, and making cultural output advantages is the most important goal in the future.

Otherwise, why did he spend so much effort on "Kung Fu Panda".

It's just that "Kung Fu Panda" will take many years to complete. Lu Pingan thinks that he can try to do it first in the next commercial film.

"I'll think about it."

"Well, I won't say much, I don't understand your business, but there is one thing that is correct in what you do, that is, don't stray too far from your roots at any time, so that you won't mess around Floating, can't find direction."

"It's very profound, I will try to understand it."

"Practice and understand at the same time, don't worry, you are only 21 years old, there is still a long way to go."

As the uncle said, he took out the red envelope, "Here."

"It's unnecessary."

"Wait until when you get married to say this, take it."

"Oh, this...Okay, okay...hahaha..."

From the first to the fourth day of junior high school, Lu Pingan has been paying New Year greetings to relatives.

This is the third year he has traveled through time.

In the past two years, he escaped because of the Berlin Film Festival.

There is no suitable reason this year, so naturally I have to bow down.

The first and second grades belong to the father's side, and the third and fourth grades belong to the mother's side.

After "Source", Lu Pingan became a "big director". It's not just that he wants to deny it. Everyone thinks you are, and you are.

So along the way, I met countless people, signed countless autographs, and took countless photos.

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, Lu Pingan began to visit elders who were not relatives.

Uncle Liao, Secretary Dong, Hu Qingquan, Han Sanpin and so on.

After a circle of worship, there was only Jiang Wen missing, but Jiang Wen went to another place, so Lu Ping'an's New Year's greeting trip ended.

Next, someone else gave him New Year greetings.

The first is Miss Hua.

Sister Hua is really good at what she does as a manager. Apart from greetings, some small gifts are never left behind during the holidays.

The New Year's greetings are really just New Year's greetings, and they didn't ask about any projects. With such a manager, the general director would give her more opportunities.

Lu Ping'an couldn't avoid being vulgar, at least the next time he was looking for an actor, if she came to the door again, he would definitely leave a less important one.

Liu Qianqian's mother and daughter also came to pay New Year's greetings. It's been a long time since they saw each other. Liu Qianqian seems to have grown taller.

"Brother Ping An!"

Liu Qianqian is still full of energy.

Lu Pingan asked: "Is Tianlong finished filming?"

"It was filmed on Lunar New Year's Eve."

"After filming, you have to go to class well. I heard that people in school didn't see you very much. It would be so embarrassing to say it in the future."

"Talk about me, aren't you the same?"

"I'm a director, so it's enough to use my results to speak."

"Okay, you are amazing."

"Hey, who did you learn this speaking style from? It's quite a rascal."

"How is it, is it all right?"

"Ha, little brat."

"I'm already 16!"

"Okay, you are amazing."

"Wow, you learned from me."

The mother and daughter left after eating.

He didn't mention the project either, Lu Ping'an could tell that Liu Xiaoli actually knew quite well.

Then there are Deng Chao, Li Bo and others. These are not friends like Zhang Songwen, but they have a good relationship. It is actually very happy for them to sit down and talk and laugh together.

The rest were because they were not that close, or they were simply thin-skinned, and they didn't dare to come over because they just texted or called to say New Year greetings.

Lu Ping'an actually thinks, I'm not afraid of you coming to pay New Year's greetings, it's auspicious, but what I'm afraid of is that you'll come and talk about what you have and what you don't have, so it's better not to come.

When it was the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, Lu Ping'an closed the door to thank guests, and he was about to go to Bashu.

As a result, Jiang Wen called at this time: "I'm back, it's time for you to come to pay New Year's greetings!"

Still so rude.

But Lu Pingan liked it.

If you are too polite, you will be rusty.

Lu Pingan said into the microphone: "I'll come here now."

As a result, Jiang Wen replied: "I'll come to you."

"How can a teacher give New Year's greetings to students first?"

"Who told you that I came to pay New Year's greetings?"

"Then who are you?"

"I'm here to collect the debt!"

safe trip:"..."

He knew that Jiang Wen wanted a script.

This has to be given, it has been agreed a long time ago, and there is no time to talk.

It's just the New Year's Eve to collect debts.

To bury him, or put him in jail?

hang up the phone.

Lu Ping'an walked to the study.

He took out the two scripts that had been prepared in the drawer, and decided to hand over Jiang Wen's fate to the coin.

As he spoke, he took out a one-yuan coin and tossed it up.

"Oh, it's in jail."

. . . . . . .

Two hours later, in the courtyard, Jiang Wen sat on the sofa and read the script intently.

After reading it once, Jiang Wen nodded repeatedly.

In his opinion, this film is very worthy of an award!
The script Lu Pingan produced this time is called "The Hunger Platform".

This is a movie that is more stark than the class issues discussed in "Parasite."

It is about a magical prison where food is transported down from the top floor in the form of an elevator.

Each prisoner will be randomly assigned to a prison floor once a month.

If you are lucky enough to go to the upper floors, the food is the most abundant, and you can eat whatever you want, but the lower you go, it will be miserable, and you have to extravagantly ask the upper-level people to keep some, otherwise you will have to eat people or be eaten.

The huge prison in this film is the real society, and the feast is limited social resources. The upper class eats and drinks enough, the middle class barely maintains a decent face, and the lower class can't lick their bones. All the evils of human nature are inspired and can only be eaten by humans. people.

The managers on the 0th floor look from top to bottom, and they can’t see how many floors there are in hell. Everyone on the upper floor as far as they can see is living a good life, so they are quite satisfied with their work, and even full of pride.

In the end, the people at the bottom use their lives to send the signal, but the people outside the upper class can't get the real meaning at all.

This film is actually very suitable for hitting awards.

In fact, Lu Pingan also thought about producing "Parasite", but in comparison, "The Hunger Platform" can break away from "locality".

The world of "The Hunger Platform" can better imply the overall human society, and "Parasite" also has this meaning, but the connection with the social background is deeper.

To put it simply, watching "The Hunger Platform", you will not think of the country where the film was produced, but watching "Parasite", you will feel that South Korea is like this.

This will also save Lu Pingan from being labeled as "the scar of the mother country".

Of course, there must be some one-sidedness in saying this.

However, from other perspectives, such as cost, shooting difficulty, etc., "Hunger Platform" is obviously more suitable.

After reading it for a long time, Jiang Wen closed the script, closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows, and asked Lu Pingan after a long time: "Your brain..."

"It's that long!"

Lu Pingan answered directly.

He has heard this kind of words too many times, and he is tired of it.

Jiang Wen also shook his head and laughed, then asked, "When will we shoot?"

"You can get ready first."

"Can I be the protagonist?"

"Do you think it will work?"

The protagonist in the film is a frail scholar, Jiang Wen thought for a while and said, "I can try."

Then he added: "Or you can change it again?"

Lu Pingan smiled and shook his head: "No change."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Wen felt a little regretful, but he heard Lu Pingan say, "But if it's really inappropriate, you can be my assistant director."

Jiang Wen brushed his spirits up: "Really?!"

"The premise is that you can't name it. You know the reason. And most importantly, the theme and script structure of the film cannot be changed. You can play the acting and lines. Let's discuss it."

"no problem!"

Jiang Wen was happy.

Lu Pingan was also happy.

When adapting foreign films, one of the difficulties is to localize the lines, especially this kind of literary films.

As for changing the plot, the structure of the script, etc., he has not been able to get involved in this step for the time being, and he will take his time later.

And if you want to restore it well, or even look at "beyond", you must introduce a big cow.

Jiang Wen is very suitable, he also has a successful experience.

Of course, the premise is still the same sentence, the theme and script structure cannot be changed.

Now it seems that the combination of Lu Pingan and Jiang Wen is actually very suitable.

Because his movies, themes and creativity are really his strengths, and it is not easy to change.

Of course, there are some things that need to be changed, such as making the film not like the original film, then R-rating, reducing bloody scenes, or changing the way of expression to make it more in line with the three major European films.

The lines are the same, but this is Lu Ping'an's weakness, and it's just right for Jiang Wen to play well.

After the matter was finalized, Jiang Wen stuffed Lu Pingan with a red envelope, saying that it was given as a teacher, and then left with the script.

Lu Pingan opened the red envelope, 20 yuan.

He suddenly felt that his student was so cheap
Forget it, the red envelope is the heart, don't care about it.

The award-winning film is done, and the next commercial film is next.

Regarding the choice of commercial films, Lu Pingan already had an idea.

First of all, the box office potential must be high. In the current environment, anyone who comes will die, and the crushing ability will explode.

Secondly, it must be the same as what the uncle said.

To have Chinese cultural symbols, you must have your own roots, and if you don't have them, you have to add a little bit.

It is best to bring some comedy elements to increase the popularity of moviegoers.

Of course, it is better to have a small space and special effects can be used, so that the cost will not be high.

If possible, there is room for some modification.

Counting with his fingers like this, Lu Pingan soon had a goal.

This is a story about security
It's it!
After confirming the project, Hu Qingquan called:

Shortlisted!
