Moreover, for the time being, even if there is "I am not the God of Medicine" as the bottom line, the subsequent reality-themed movies that followed the trend have turned into a scourge.
After all, for most people, reality-themed movies, "I'm Not the God of Medicine" is just an example.
Therefore, reality-themed movies have not been particularly popular.
Speaking of this, some people might think, is it because there is no good script?
Really not, because most of the scripts of realistic movies are derived from reality, and there is really no shortage of excellent literary works in this area.
Although Wang Yifan has no plans to shoot "Dear" by himself for the time being, he is already automatically searching for actors in this world suitable for "Dear".
But it was probably the actors from the previous life "Dear" that impressed Wang Yifan too deeply, making him feel that he had no choice for a while.
The first is Wang Yifan's number one queen actor, Li Junsheng.
Acting skills, Li Junsheng should be enough. After all, he has played so many plays for so many years, but his image is not suitable.
The role of the male protagonist Tian Wenjun in "Dear" is actually a bit like Cheng Yong in "I'm Not the God of Medicine" to some extent.
However, the difference is that the role of Tian Wenjun in "Dear" has too many emotional dramas, which is more troublesome than Cheng Yong in "I'm Not the God of Medicine".
Because of this role, he is a father who lost his child.
Li Junsheng is old enough, but he is too handsome, and... well, this is not a big problem, but Wang Yifan thinks that Li Junsheng will probably like this character very much, but He felt that something was missing.
Chen Bu is more suitable than Li Junsheng, but Chen Bu...
Ge Jun...
Wang Yifan thought about it a few times, and finally shook his head. It was not that it was not suitable, but that he always felt that something was a little too difficult to grasp.
That feeling made him a little crazy.
At this time, a pair of hands appeared on his forehead and rubbed gently.
"What do you want to look so tired?" Zhang Zirong asked while rubbing Wang Yifan gently.
"I wrote a story, but although this story is fictitious, I hope that the details in it are true, so I can't write it." Wang Yifan smiled bitterly.
"Let the screenwriters do it. Didn't you always do this before?" Zhang Zirong asked suspiciously.
"This book is different from the previous ones, eh, the screenwriter is suitable for the script filling of commercial films, but this story, it... needs a sense of reality." Wang Yifan shook his head.
"Or, find an experienced screenwriter who is good at realistic themes to make the script?" Zhang Zirong suggested.
Wang Yifan thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "There are not many realistic-themed films. There are so many screenwriters who are good at reality-themed ones."
"Do you want to be the director of this movie by yourself?" Zhang Zirong asked in surprise.
Wang Yifan shook his head and said, "I still have "Monkey King" on hand. Although there are a lot of preparations, I don't need me to run, but there is no way to open another movie, and this is still a realistic movie. , If I want to shoot, I have to visit the site, I don’t have enough time."
"Isn't that enough? Just come out the literary script outline, and then you let the actors and directors visit and perfect the script, isn't it all right?" Zhang Zirong said with a smile.
When Wang Yifan heard the words, his eyes lit up and said, "This is a good way."
The previous life "Dear" itself is also a novel adapted from news that happened in reality, and it was later adapted into a movie. There are original works and prototype characters for reference.
But in this world, there is no original character for reference.
Of course, I just said that there is no prototype character like the story of "Dear". In fact, there are too many families who have lost their children.
As for the actors who want to perform well, in Wang Yifan's view, they must go to the field to visit, and even walk with those parents who are looking for children.
At that time, they can indeed improve some of the details of the script based on their own experience and seeing.
...
An unfinished script, take it out to find the director, if it is someone else, no one will take it seriously.
But this person is Wang Yifan, it is completely different.
However, Wang Yifan has very high requirements for "Dear", if he can't find a suitable director, he would rather let it go.
In fact, Ma Qingshan is quite suitable, but Lao Ma definitely has no time during this period of time to run the "alive" thing.
Basically flying around the world.
Wang Yifan did not inform others about this matter, but instead followed his own ideas. Find someone directly.
The first thing he thought of was Wu Tianxiong. Although Wu Tianxiong's development over the years seems not to be very good, Wang Yifan has seen some of his films. In fact, he is still quite good in terms of strength. It is a pity that he has been in bad luck and seems to have never met. What good books have you been to?
Another is Wu Han, which is also a candidate.
After thinking about it, Wang Yifan first contacted Wu Tianxiong.
Although Wu Tianxiong is in China, Wang Yifan is not anxious about fame and status, but he is also considered a famous director.
It's just that this famous director is a little bit motivated. After all, Wu Tianxiong doesn't follow the line of literary and artistic movies, so he doesn't have any big prizes. In terms of business, his best box office is only a few hundred million.
In the past, it was a first-class director, but now, it really can only be regarded as a well-known director.
Wu Tianxiong looked very surprised when he received a call from Wang Yifan, and also quite pleasantly surprised.
"Director Wang, have something to do with me?" Wu Tianxiong's heart is actually quite complicated. He can be said to have watched Wang Yifan walk step by step until now.
The inconspicuous little director back then has now become the top director in China.
More than that, Wang Yifan himself is also a wealthy man. The two can be said to be somewhat like the gap between him and the fledgling Wang Yifan, but the other way around.
"I have a notebook in my hand. I wonder if Director Wu is interested?" Wang Yifan said directly.
"Oh? Doesn't Director Wang direct himself?" Wu Tianxiong was a little surprised.
"I'm not busy with "The Monkey King", if Director Wu is interested, you can meet and chat." Wang Yifan said with a smile.
"Your Wang Yifan's script, that is a golden sign. Of course I am interested. Okay, meet and chat." Wu Tianxiong smiled.
After arranging the time and place, he hung up the phone, Wu Tianxiong sighed, people really can't compare with people.
However, he was really tempted by Wang Yifan's script. Well, as he said before, who looked at the directors of China, who would be indifferent to Wang Yifan's script?
Wang Yifan doesn’t even know it. The most famous one in the circle is actually not the films he directed, but his script, his vision!
