Highlight the changes in the times of local cities, but certainly not turning the cart before the horse.
The main thing is to have a good story, even if it is a movie that is fully sponsored by the local government, but they definitely want more people to see it, otherwise they can only entertain themselves. Then make such a movie. It's just a waste.
After all, like Haixi City, there is no shortage of money at all. What is lacking is a city business card, or it may not be a lack of city business cards. I just want to create more business cards that can be used in film and television.
Why is Wang Yifan so enthusiastic?
Are you purely helping Li Mingjuan? surely not!
It's that things are readily available, and he is just a small effort, followed by interests, reputation, and a good relationship with the authorities in Fujian Province.
At the same time, he was helping Li Mingjuan.
Li Mingjuan was lost in thought, Yang Qingqing was a bit confused. He hadn't watched the movie "Grateful Heart", and naturally he didn't know what it was about.
But Li Mingjuan is quite clear.
"Director Wang is telling the first story?" Li Mingjuan raised his head and asked.
Wang Yifan smiled and nodded.
"The background is changed to Haixi City. Through the growth and experience of two generations, it is natural to show that the development of a city is different from the two eras." Wang Yifan said with a smile.
"Of course, the story must be changed. After all, the first story of "Grateful Heart" is relatively simple. It is difficult to make a movie." Wang Yifan added.
Li Mingjuan smiled and told Yang Ming, who was a little confused, the outline of the "Grateful Heart". Yang Ming understood it, but still frowned, because it was a little different from what he expected.
Moreover, in Yang Ming's view, is this Wang Yifan a bit misleading? In his view, this kind of story is really not that good.
He felt that when such a movie was made, it didn't seem to be much different from the movies they had previously custom sponsored.
"Well, you should think about it first. I'm still busy here. You think about it, let's talk more about it, okay?" Wang Yifan glanced at Yang Ming, not caring, and said lightly.
Li Mingjuan sighed, knowing that Wang Yifan also had a temper, and Yang Ming's performance was too obvious.
Yes, Yang Ming represents Haixi City, but Wang Yifan is not a small director like Li Mingjuan. Yang Ming showed such an expression, although it is nothing, but Wang Yifan is obviously not used to him.
Another thing like this can't be discussed once. Whether Haixi City is Wang Yifan's hometown, and they don't have such deep friendship, so he is willing to say these things for Li Mingjuan's sake.
Naturally, Li Mingjuan won't continue to struggle, she needs to communicate with Yang Ming.
Out of the crew, Yang Ming frowned and said, "Director Li, is the story you told is too simple? Moreover, even if it is modified, it is still only a small cost, and it is difficult to meet our requirements. what."
Li Mingjuan sighed and said: "Director Yang, Director Wang Yifan is not an ordinary director. Not only is he a billionaire director, but he is also a shareholder of Huaxin, and he is not a minority shareholder. He is willing to say that. Moreover, in terms of movies, Director Yang, with all due respect, he is the real expert."
"Director Yang thinks the story of "Grateful Heart" is not good enough?" Li Mingjuan asked again.
In fact, Yang Ming felt a little uncomfortable. Although Li Mingjuan said it euphemistically, he didn't say anything about him directly, and didn't understand movies at all.
Hearing what Li Mingjuan said, Yang Ming was taken aback and said, "It's not that the story is not good enough, but hasn't this kind of story been filmed? And it seems that it is difficult to highlight the local characteristics of Haixi?"
Li Mingjuan shook his head and said, "But does Director Yang know how much the box office of "Grateful Heart" is?"
Yang Ming was stunned. He didn't really care about this before, but when he heard Li Mingjuan's words, he was stunned.
Yes, the box office of Wang Yifan's movie seems to be no less than 100 million, except at the beginning.
The box office was 100 million, and it was over 100 million a few years ago.
It is ridiculous that he himself felt that the story was too simple, that Wang Yifan was not worthy of the truth.
"Director Li, I’m sorry, I did have some Meng Lang just now, but Director Li thinks, is this kind of story really okay? You should know that once the project is completed, the leader will definitely ask questions. By then, I want to It’s hard to convince them.
Yang Ming’s attitude has obviously changed a lot, but he insisted.
Li Mingjuan smiled.
"Director Yang, what Director Wang said is not for us to use that story directly, but just as a reference."
"Moreover, Director Yang probably doesn't know that Wang Yifan is directed by Wang Yifan, but he is called the director of the music department. His movies are usually accompanied by good songs. The two complement each other. They use songs to tell the story behind the songs and movies. Therefore, Since he has said so much, he must have an idea in his heart, but..." Li Mingjuan stopped here.
"It's just what?" Yang Ming asked curiously.
"It's just that, Director Yang, you need to think carefully, what exactly do you want?" Li Mingjuan glanced at Yang Ming and said.
"What on earth do you want?" Yang Ming repeated this sentence and nodded.
In fact, local sponsors want to use the film as a carrier to create a city's name card, but what is the best way to do it?
Who can make it clear?
Although Haixi City says it’s not bad for money, it’s relatively speaking. After spending money, it’s a good value for money, but if you spend money, but you don’t see any splashes, what is it? Prodigal?
Putting it on ordinary businessmen, the loss is only some money, but when it is put on a local government, it will be unfavorable and have to bear the responsibility. Therefore, they will be so cautious and pay attention to it.
For Yang Ming, this is a major task at hand. If it is done well, it will naturally have a boundless future. If it is not done well, it will be a big stain for him.
In officialdom, no one would say that it is not your fault if you do not do this well, it is your fault if you do not do it well, it is not too!
For Wang Yifan, this is just a small episode. His mind has not been divided too much, and he is still shooting methodically.
The filming went well. Li Junsheng is also a veteran actor, and his characteristic is stability. Although it is difficult to have a big outbreak, once he enters the state, he is very stable and his acting skills are always online.
In fact, this actor is Wang Yifan’s favorite. Perhaps some directors of literary and artistic films will like some nerve-knife actors and actors with explosive acting skills, but for commercial film directors, such actors are really not needed. On the contrary, Li Junsheng is the favorite of Wang Yifan and other commercial film directors.
