Chapter 618 Director Zhao Wei's Conditions

The Golden Rooster controversy has lasted for a long time. It was an entertainment event that was more lively than Huang Yi Huo Siyan's scolding battle and Yang Mi's love scandal in October. The low-key He Mu and the arrogant Feng Xiaogang were also shot while lying down. They became representatives of the media and netizens criticizing the Golden Rooster Awards. Anyway, Feng Xiaogang has criticized the Golden Horse Award before, and it is no big deal to criticize the Golden Rooster again, but He Mu is an innocent disaster. He is a pure and good boy with no criminal record.

However, after the incident, He Mu did not issue a statement to explain. To be honest, he really has a lot of opinions on the Golden Rooster Awards, which are becoming less and less energetic and more and more decadent. Although the media is unscrupulous, they speak out on his behalf He said what was in his heart, so he was silent at this time.

Nowadays, the mainland is the absolute center of Chinese-language movies. Both Hong Kong and Taiwan have been reduced to the back garden of Hollywood. Local movies lack vitality. Only the mainland relies on some protection policies and a group of filmmakers with aspirations, ideals and ambitions. It can barely compete with Hollywood blockbusters, so the importance of mainland movies is far more than Taiwan and Hong Kong movies. However, the Golden Rooster Award, which represents the highest achievement of mainland movies, is far inferior to the Golden Horse and Golden Statue. Every time it is held, it will bring countless awards. Criticism, especially in this year's 28th Golden Rooster Awards, the four very face-to-face films have driven movie lovers crazy. If the Golden Rooster does not want to change and make progress, then mainland filmmakers may really consider re-establishing a Chinese-language film. The signboard of the grand prize.

Because of these controversies, Zhao Wei was even alarmed. She is the image ambassador of this year's Golden Rooster Awards. She specially called He Mu, hoping that He Mu could rest assured, and comforted He Mu, saying that the Golden Rooster is like this, and it is popular this year.Next year, next year's award winners may all be blockbuster films. I would like to give her auspicious words, hoping that the judges will consider the feelings of the general public while sticking to their artistic stance.

The calls between He Mu and Zhao Wei are usually to exchange parenting experience.Their children are all daughters, and they are of the same age. We can exchange experience with each other in this regard, but this time, in addition to the bad deeds of Chen Xiaosiyue and Xiao Bayi, the two also mentioned the directorial debut.

Of course, they're talking about Sister Wei's directorial debut.As a big problem for the director department of Beijing Film Academy, Zhao Wei and her teacher hope that she can successfully obtain a master's degree, but Zhao Wei is giving birth and making movies at the same time.I have never had the time and energy to direct her graduation work.

Now, the opportunity has come, Xiao Siyue can already leave her mother's care, and all the planned film appointments have been completed.Zhao Wei already has a preliminary director plan.

"I have taken a fancy to a novel. I want to adapt it into a movie, but this novel is in the hands of your Mizuki." Zhao Wei said bluntly.

"Oh, which one?"

"It was recommended to me by a friend. I think it's well written, but it needs some major surgery to make it more suitable for the big screen."

"What's the detour, just say it."

"To Our Dying Youth, what do you think?"

"This novel is very famous, and it is the most popular novel in Xinyiwu. The characters are full and interesting. Xinyiwu and Tiandi Media cooperate closely. Basically, the following novels are operated by Tiandi Media, but my favorite is this one. "To Youth", you have a good eye."

Zhao Wei smiled "hehe", "Then, sister Chengquan, how about transferring the copyright of the novel to me? I can pay a high price."

"Don't talk about money, it's so vulgar, sister, you haven't found an investor yet, why don't you be the host, this movie Mizuki invested in." He Mu thought, Mizuki doesn't have a director suitable for the type of "To Youth" for the time being , it might as well be directed by Zhao Wei and invested by Mizuki. As a youthful memory of a generation, Zhao Wei is too suitable to direct this kind of movie.

"You trust me so much. It's my first time directing a movie. Are you afraid of losing money?" To be honest, Zhao Wei is not that confident. Not just any actor can become He Mu. He Mu's talent and hard work are well-known in the circle. And he has the entire Shuimu Forest as his backing, so he can shoot the shocking "Zi Bu Yu", but can he do it himself?

"There's nothing to be afraid of losing money, as long as the graduation work is beautifully shot, you don't need to consider the box office." He Mu said sincerely, of course, if the box office can pass, then of course it would be the best.

Although many film companies have talked with Zhao Wei, as long as she wants to be a director, she will definitely vote for her film, and the conditions are up to her, including big companies such as Huayi and Guangguang, and even Han Sanye of China Film Group has also followed up with her. She talked about this topic, but everyone's expectations for the box office of director Zhao Wei's works are not too high. The reason why they still cooperate with Zhao Wei is because of her status as one of the top actresses in China. Sometimes, some roles can only be played by her. Or if people like Zhou Xun and Li Bingbing come to act, the younger Xiaohua will not be able to make it at all.

After shopping around, the partner that Zhao Wei really thinks is a suitable partner is probably Shuimu Forest. The copyright of "To Youth" is only a small factor in Mizuki's hands. Zhao Wei doesn't believe that if she insists on buying it, He Mu will hold it to death. If they don't let go, their relationship will never be inferior to a novel.

In addition, Mizuki Forest has developed very strongly in recent years. Its publicity and distribution methods have their merits. There are frequent cases of small and large, and it is rare to lose money. If her directorial debut is handed over to Mizuki to operate, at least Don't worry about the box office being too bad.

A more important factor is He Mu. Although He Mu directed "Zi Bu Yu" which is excellent in every aspect, he is also an actor with outstanding charisma and amazing acting skills. He is Chen Xiaozheng's ideal in her mind. The best candidate, Zhao Youting, a young boy from Taiwan that she met in "love" before, is also good, but he is from Taiwan after all, I'm afraid he can't play the feeling of Ah Zheng, let alone the box office appeal. up.

In order to pull He Mu into her own boat, Zhao Wei took the step of retreating, "Mr. Wang who can shine and Mr. Yu from Bona both want to invest in my graduation work, and they promised me not to act. director."

If you direct and act by yourself, it will definitely add a lot of points to an actor, just like He Mu's "Zi Bu Yu" and Zhou Xingchi's "Kung Fu", etc., all of a sudden bring out the director's all-round talent, and add more points to attract audiences into the cinema. A lot of help, if it was just a director, it would definitely be inferior, but Zhao Wei insisted that she would be a pure director this time, and would never participate in any acting.

He Mu thought for a while, "That's no problem, I actually don't like acting while directing, it's too troublesome."

Zhao smiled and said again, "What about the male actor? I don't act myself, and the heroine hopes to choose a newcomer, so the male actor must have weight. Who do you think is more suitable?"

Zhao Wei had already met her, He Muyan could not understand what she meant, but at this moment he hesitated... (to be continued...)
