Their worries are not unreasonable. Wang Yifan remembers that in the previous life, "I am not a medicine god" was also a three-time draft, and it was finally reviewed.
Yang Long smiled and said, "You don't need to worry about this. First of all, since Yifan dared to write that, then surely, this medicine is now covered by medical insurance, right?"
Speaking, Yang Long looked at Wang Yifan.
Wang Yifan nodded and said, "Yes, and the patent period of this medicine expired a few years ago. There have been other generic drugs of this medicine, and the price has been reduced several times compared with the original."
Yang Long nodded and said, "Then it's okay. However, it's better to get a few people to communicate with them and say hello. This story, I believe, Yifan, you handled it like that at the end, and you also considered this. Factor?"
Wang Yifan nodded, he knew what Yang Long was referring to.
He also learned from the previous life "I am not a medicine god", and at the end described in words that the medicine has been included in medical insurance.
"In this case, there is no problem, the group will fully support you!" Lin Husheng was also relieved.
Although "I'm not the God of Medicine" is indeed a bit sensitive, it really does not involve any major issues, and it is a problem that has already been resolved, so, as Yang Long said, such a script, if Wang Yifan draws a few A director with a heavier weight, say hello, it won't be a big problem.
"But..." Yang Long hesitated.
"Director Yang, what?" Lin Husheng asked.
"This film will be released in half a year. It seems a bit difficult, right?" Yang Long looked at Wang Yifan.
He is also a director himself. He also likes this script very much. Therefore, he is a little worried. If Wang Yifan is in a hurry to shoot this film, will it lead to a reduction in the quality of the film? That would be a pity.
"This is also what I am worried about. After all, although this is a feature film, to be honest, the actors involved in it require a lot of professional actors, which are not capable of ordinary dragon suits. Another need to go abroad for filming. It's also a problem." Wang Yifan nodded.
"Is there a way to solve this problem?" Lin Husheng frowned. The company's listing plan was set long ago, and it can be said that it affects the whole body. Therefore, it is not advisable to postpone the listing.
"Ahem, it's actually not an unsolved solution." Before Wang Yifan spoke, Yang Long suddenly coughed twice.
"Director Yang, you said." Lin Husheng said to Yang Long with his eyes lit up.
"Yi Fan, how about co-directing?" Yang Long said with a guilty conscience.
Wang Yifan was startled for a moment and couldn't help but smile, but he didn't expect Yang Long to say this way.
Co-directing is indeed a solution to the problem. At that time, it can blossom in many places, such as Wang Yifan shooting in China, Yang Long going abroad to shoot, and multiple lines at the same time. In that case, it can save a lot of time.
Of course, in fact, it doesn't need to be so troublesome, just find a few trusted executive directors, and the same can be done.
However, this requires a capable and competent director. For Wang Yifan, this is really not a problem.
Why does Yang Long feel guilty? Naturally, it was because he was happy to see Lie, he also liked this script very much, and wanted to intervene.
But co-directing has the same problem, that is, the problem of style.
For example, Wang Yifan and Yang Long are co-directed. They both have their own styles. What should I do? Who will listen to?
Movies don’t mean that the better you make, the better. The unity of style is equally important. Otherwise, you’re shooting a realistic style in the front, but it becomes another style in the back, so that the original movie will be separated.
The reason is very simple. The picture taken by one director is 6 points, and the other director is 8 points. The final result will not be 7 points, but 5 points or even lower. What should I do?
Wang Yifan looked at Yang Long with a smile, without speaking.
Yang Long was even more guilty when he was seen by Wang Yifan and said: "Ahem, okay, I admit that I am a little bit happy with the hunt, but, eh, forget it, when I didn't say it."
He was a little panicked, actually because he had a good relationship with Wang Yifan, otherwise, his words would offend people a bit.
why?
Which director would like to be criticized for making movies?
Especially for a director at the level of Wang Yifan, the weight is not lower than Yang Long, and the script is Wang Yifan, and the movie is his. At this time, you suddenly want to get a share, what is it?
"Never mind co-directing, the style is not uniform, for the film, it will be a disaster." Wang Yifan said, shaking his head.
Yang Long nodded. Although he felt a little pity in his heart, he didn't say anything.
Lin Husheng looked at Wang Yifan and then at Yang Long, but he was not surprised and rejoiced. When would a director at the level of Yang Long be so concerned about a play? Even said the words of co-directing, what does this show? It is clear that he is also very optimistic about this film.
"I'll find more executive directors. This problem has been solved, but it is not easy to choose the actors." Wang Yifan frowned again.
"Director Yang, do you have a suitable recommendation for the role of Cheng Yong?" Wang Yifan looked at Yang Long and asked.
Cheng Yong's role was played by bald Xu in his previous life. This role is really not so easy to find an actor.
First of all, Cheng Yong's character setting is very complicated.
This role needs a Mesozoic acting squad to perform. This alone is not enough, because the film not only has tears but also laughs.
So you need an actor who can laugh, cry, be lively, humorous, and be serious. At the same time, you can't look too handsome in this role, but rather frustrate.
Because the first Cheng Yong was a troubled middle-aged male health care product vendor.
It's a decadent LOSER!
He took the risk because of his dismal business and became the exclusive agent of the Indian generic drug "Glenin". He was dubbed "The God of Medicine" by his patients. He has no ambitions, he just wants to make some money, keep the custody of his children, and open his own sacred oil shop. When Cheng Yong truly entered the group of leukemia patients, his transformation and growth were amazing. Even if he was in prison for this, he must do his best to help every patient.
This play has very high requirements for the actors' acting skills. The bald Xu from the previous life played very well, the middle-aged greasy man in the early stage, the failed LOSER, the nouveau riche in the middle stage, and the "God of Medicine" in the later stage!
Etc., etc.
This makes this role even more difficult!
Yang Long also has some headaches. He is an expert and naturally knows the importance and difficulty of this role.
The average Mesozoic actor is really difficult to control.
For example, Chen Dahua, his acting skills are recognized as good, but he is not suitable for such a role. The same should be Li Junsheng and Chen Bu. If they talk about acting skills, they are all competent, but they all lack a sense of the market. .
