Chapter 713: ."Dear"

Let's look at realistic themes again, looking at those successful realistic movies.
What actors are used?
Take "I'm Not the God of Medicine" as an example. For this kind of film, new directors and tool people may not be able to shoot well.
Because there are many things involved, it will be out of control for a while.
And in terms of actors, which of the actors Wang Yifan used can be managed by the new director?
Wang Yifan is also considering that real-life movies, to be honest, are not suitable for launching too many movies at once, unlike other movies.
This is because realistic-themed movies focus on reality. The production cycle of this kind of movies is not short, mainly in the preliminary preparations.
For example, Wang Yifan has scripts on anti-trafficking themes, but "Dear" is very good. It can be regarded as the outstanding domestic film in the past life among the anti-trafficking movies.
And the reputation is also very good.
But this movie does not mean that there is a script, a story, and the actors can make it if you find the right director.
It's not that simple.
First of all, both the director and the actors need a long time to prepare. For the director, it is a test of the director's ability to control the scale and plot of the movie.
Realistic themes must take into account the authenticity of reality, while ensuring the tension of the film and the conflict of the plot.
At the same time, we must also consider the differences between the previous life and this world, which need to be avoided.
As for the actors, who are the actors in the previous life of this movie? People like Huang Bo and Zhao Wei said bluntly that among the actors in China, even if these people are not the best in acting, they are definitely the top-notch group.
Even if this is the case, they also need to experience, feel, investigate and so on.
As for the director, it is certainly impossible to actually shoot according to the script. The biggest difference between reality-themed movies and other movies is that when making other movies, the director can be a tool man, and the script can be shot as much as possible.
But reality movies are really not good!
"Do you have any suggestions?" Wang Yifan still asked.
Chen Hanming pondered for a moment and said: "First of all, I want to know, this time, do you plan to come up with the story yourself, and then choose the director, or let the director bring his own project?"
Wang Yifan frowned, and asked, "How about my own story? How about the director's own project?"
"If you make your own story script, it is of course much simpler. Just choose the right director. In fact, this is no different from the previous new star guidance plan. The only difference is probably the people who screened, from newcomers to all. Director. If you let the director bring your own project, then there is another problem involved, that is, the prospect of the project. After all, now everyone knows that your project is the best quality, and it may not be the case for others. "Chen Hanming smiled and flattered.
"Let's do both!" Wang Yifan thought for a while and said.
"Alright, how do you plan to announce this?" Chen Hanming asked.
"This time just treat it as a supplement to the Rising Stars Project. Don't hold any more press conferences. It won't be too late to wait for the film to start and then select it." Wang Yifan thought for a while. To tell the truth, many realistic movies are It is more sensitive and not suitable for excessive publicity like other movies.
For example, for a movie like "Dear", it is not easy to do too much publicity in the early stage. At most, it is to explain why such a movie is made.
Because this subject matter itself is relatively heavy.
After returning, Wang Yifan originally thought he could write "Dear" quickly, but soon he discovered that the story is simple, but many details are difficult.
Moreover, movies with the theme of "Dear" and movies with realistic themes are not suitable for filling in with the screenwriter team as before.
Because this is a realistic movie, many things are not suitable for commercial dialogue.
In the dead of night, Wang Yifan stopped his work. He wrote the outline of the "Dear" story script, but in terms of details, although he had seen this movie in his previous life, and when he watched it, his heart was heavy, but now He thinks about the details, but he doesn't think about it well, or reluctantly writes it out, he finds it difficult to feel like a previous life.
Some things, only experienced, and only those who have experienced it personally can give people that sense of reality.
"Dear" is a story about abduction, but in fact, there have been a lot of themes of abduction and loneliness in the previous life, but why is "Dear" the highest achievement?
Because this story is not just a story of abduction.
In the past, Wang Yifan remembered that the script of "Dear" was adapted by the screenwriter based on a CCTV's early "anti-trafficking" news. It tells a couple because their relationship is not harmonious, and their son becomes their only connection, but one day, the child is inexplicable Lost.
In fact, there is not much difference between the previous and many anti-abduction movies and stories, except that the child is lost.
The following story is that the husband and wife worked hard to find their own children. They met many parents who looked for children like themselves, and many shocking things happened.
Although many of these are shocking and real, what it feels like to lose a child, think about it, anyone who is a parent is reluctant to experience it, but this story shows them all.
But purely speaking from movies, this kind of plot is not uncommon.
And the most special thing about "Dear" is that it changes the traditional drama structure. The first half of the script tells a story of finding a lost child, but the key lies in the second half of the script, because the plot of the second half is not simply It tells the story of finding a child lost and found, but changing to another perspective, tells a story of finding and recovering.
Thus, a controversy was triggered.
Because of the second half of the story, the kidnapped child and the trafficker’s wife were raised as their own sons. She fulfilled the responsibility of a mother to the child and gave him enough maternal love.
But always the child belongs to someone else, and she is the trafficker's wife.
Therefore, a contradiction and controversy has formed.
This is also the most unforgettable reason for this story.
It is not uncommon to see simple stories of loss and recovery, but this kind of recovery from loss to gain and loss, coupled with the special identity, creates contradictions.
This is the most exciting and heaviest part of this story.
In fact, in reality, there are relatively few examples of this kind, and most of them are ordinary families, families that buy children from outside.
They show great care for their children, but the fact is that they can also be regarded as accomplices of human traffickers, so there is no harm if there is no business.
This is what happens most in reality.
This kind of contradiction, this kind of conflict, on the contrary, brings more thought to people than those simple injuries!
