Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 775 This is too straightforward, not good

In its previous life, "Wushuang" left a blank space at the end of the movie.

What is the relationship between Ruan Van and Li Wen? Is Ruan Van a painter?

The movie does not give any particularly clear instructions for this information.

However, in the new "Dynasty Warriors", the answer to this question is already very clear.

Regardless of whether Ruan Wen is a "painter" or not, she is definitely not as simple as she appears to be. She must have a relationship with the "painter".

As for why we do this, the reason is very simple.

Good for box office.

The plot of "Wushuang" is directly presented in the movie. The triple identity of "painter" is far better than showing the "double" identity of painter. The visual effect of the third blank space is much stronger.

Da Tiantian clapped and said in surprise: "I haven't seen this last part in the script."

Sometimes, being the boss is not a good thing.

Because she had already watched many movies before the project was launched and knew the main plot of the script.

This way, there is no suspense.

In addition, she is also a family member of Zhou Mo, so she is the first to know about Zhou Mo’s revisions, so she can’t avoid some new ideas.

This kind of distress often accompanies Da Tiantian, and it can be considered a happy distress.

But this time, the results of "Wushuang" obviously exceeded her expectations.

Zhou Mo asked her: "So what do you think of this result?"

"It's pretty good. It's a very pleasant surprise. I thought the climax was over, but I didn't expect there would be another fluctuation."

"That's fine." Zhou Mo nodded.

Now that Da Tiantian said so, this change is basically settled.

Da Tiantian reacted: "Why, did you tell Director Zhuang about this touching story?"

"It's not really a statement. I just mentioned it to him and asked him to see if he could be more straightforward and not give too many hints and hidden clues. He then changed the result to this," Zhou Mo explained.

"That's pretty good. This movie is actually one of the top three best Hong Kong-style movies I've seen in recent years."

Zhou Mo was stunned.

The first three.

He thought he was already number one.

He wasn't talking nonsense.

Ten years later, considering the decline of Hong Kong films, the quality of "Wushuang" can indeed be regarded as the best.

Even in the glorious era of Hong Kong films in the last century, this movie should have been on the list even if it didn't rank in the top few.

"What are the other two movies?"

Da Tiantian glanced at Zhou Mo sideways and said, "You are just pretending to be stupid here, right? You want me to praise you, right? Okay, then I'll tell you, the other two movies are of course your New World and the new version of Police Stories."

Zhou Mo: ...

Suddenly I felt a little embarrassed.

Forgot about himself.

He coughed lightly and said, "Tiantian, you know I usually don't participate in this kind of ranking because it's too bullying."

"cut."

On the other side, after the movie ended.

The main creators of "Wushuang" came on stage to be interviewed.

Zhou Mo didn't follow him this time.

It's not that he is low-key.

But he really didn't contribute much this time.

In other movies in the past, he at least served as a screenwriter and was considered one of the main creators of the crew.

But this time, he even gave the screenwriting job to Zhuang Wenqiang, letting him research it himself. So, this time he just watched the performances of the people above.

At the same time, the selection of actors was being discussed on the stage.

The host asked about his evaluation and selection of the actors.

"Director Zhuang, why didn't you choose actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan to star in this movie, but chose actors from the mainland instead?"

This issue would have been quite acute a few years ago.

But with the changes in the market over the years, and Zhou Mo's occasional assistance to the film and television markets in both places, no one thinks there is anything wrong with this issue anymore.

The same goes for Zhuang Wenqiang.

As soon as the host asked, he said without hesitation: "Because there are far more actors to choose from in the mainland than in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and much more.

In fact, there has been a lack of new actors in Hong Kong over the years. Friends who often watch movies should know that Hong Kong movies, especially commercial films, have the same faces ten years ago and the same faces ten years later, without any change at all.

If we want our films to be seen by more people and gain more exposure, we must be closer to the mainland market, use mainland actors, and write lines that mainland audiences are more familiar with. This is a well-known fact and there is nothing that cannot be said. "

Even though the gap between the two places is now well known to everyone, Zhuang Wenqiang's straightforwardness still shocked many people.

But soon, these people reacted.

Which company produced the movie "Wushuang"?
Shanhe Company.

Who did Zhuang Wenqiang follow many years ago?

Zhou Mo.

Considering the combination of Zhou Mo and Shanhe Company, it is not surprising that Zhuang Wenqiang said such things.

There are also some people who were a little dissatisfied when Zhuang Wenqiang said that there is a "generation gap in Hong Kong actors", but after thinking about it, they found that there is nothing they can do about it.

Because the person who said this, Zhuang Wenqiang, is one of the more prominent representatives among Hong Kong directors.

Since the leader had said so, the others had no chance to defend themselves.

On stage, the host continued to ask: "How does Director Zhuang evaluate the actors' performances this time?"

Zhuang Wenqiang said again without any hesitation:
"I give everyone a nine out of ten."

"It's so high." The host was surprised for a moment, then smiled and said, "Then can I know where the one point is missing?"

Zhuang Wenqiang: "The reason why my directorial ability is not up to Director Zhou's level is that we cannot bring out the full potential of the actors. If Director Zhou were in charge of this film, it would definitely be a step up."

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Mo felt many eyes staring at him from all directions.

Even Da Tiantian looked at Zhou Mo with an extremely complicated look.

"That shouldn't be the case, Zhou Mo. You've already started asking people to praise you at other movie premieres. That's too blunt and not polite at all."

Zhou Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"If I say I didn't do that, would you believe me?"

"I believe it, but others may not." Da Tiantian raised her chin and looked around.

Zhou Mo let out a long sigh.

This Zhuang Wenqiang.

You are so old, why are you so disrespectful?

How can you say such rude words in public!

Can't we go somewhere where he's not?!

On the other side, the host turned his attention to Zhou Mo.

"It just so happens that our director Zhou Mo is here today. Let's hear what he thinks of the actors' acting skills."

Facing the camera, Zhou Mo instantly regained his smile.

He immediately pointed with his fingers.
