Although it is incomparable with Wang Yifan, Chen Hang, and Wu Han, he is still a well-known director in China.
Wu Tianxiong has no shortage of appointments, but Wang Yifan's appointments are different.
Who doesn't know that Wang Yifan's movies, even literary and artistic movies, can be played with flowers.
For example, Ma Qingshan's "To Live" is said to be a movie that makes Yang Long and Ma Qingshan almost fight.
Ma Qingshan made this film for two years, not because of how complicated the film is, but because, for some directors, it may only be once in a lifetime, so it becomes more and more terrifying.
The place where Wang Yifan and Wu Tianxiong met was a private club run by Lin Husheng.
"Director Wu, long time no see!" Wang Yifan stood at the door to greet Wu Tianxiong. In any case, the visitor was a guest, and Wang Yifan was also "instructed" by Wu Tianxiong in his early years.
"Yes, long time no see!" Wu Tianxiong smiled and shook hands with Wang Yifan.
After entering a tea room, Wang Yifan started to make tea for Wu Tianxiong. After all, he was the host.
After three rounds of tea, Wang Yifan took out a literary script outline of "Dear", or a summary.
Put it in front of Wu Tianxiong.
"Some time ago..." Wang Yifan recounted the incident when he encountered traffickers abducting children.
"That's why I have this idea. Director Wu can take a look first." Wang Yifan pointed to the one-page script.
Wu Tianxiong picked up the script of "Dear" and read it.
It's just that the more you look at it, the deeper Wu Tianxiong's brows frown. Although there is only a short page, Wu Tianxiong has looked at it for a long time.
My heart is mixed.
"Good!" Wu Tianxiong put down this page of script and said.
However, he sighed and said: "Actually, I have considered movies with abduction themes."
Wang Yifan was a little surprised when he heard this.
Wu Tianxiong took a sip of tea, and then fell into a memory.
"I remember at that time, I was still preparing for my first movie. At that time, I met such a person. It was an old lady with gray hair who sold pancakes with whole grains. However, in the stall car, he kept There is a missing person notice posted. Every time someone buys pancakes, she will give an egg, then take the photo and ask others, have you seen my grandson? If you do, you must contact her."
"At first, everyone thought it was weird. Later, I heard that the old man had been looking for a grandson for several years, and his son and daughter-in-law were busy with work, so she took her grandson. As a result, one day he took his grandson to buy vegetables. In a blink of an eye, her grandson disappeared. She searched everywhere like crazy and never found her son and daughter-in-law, so she was divorced. She blamed herself. At first she walked around and searched everywhere, but there was no news. When all her savings were spent, she set up a pancake stall and kept looking for her grandson while setting up the stall. She would stay there for a while..."
Wu Tianxiong's eyes turned red as he spoke.
"At that time, I was still young, dreaming of a big director's dream, and I didn't think there was anything when I saw it. In those years, there were many things looking for children on the Internet, so I didn't care too much.
"Later, when I got married by myself, and after having children, every time I think of that thing, I feel very unhappy in my heart."
"I went to her later and wanted to give her a little help, but when I found her news, I realized that when she mistakenly thought she saw her grandson and madly chased after him, she had a car accident and passed away. It is said that she was still holding a missing person notice tightly in her hand before she died." Wu Tianxiong said, tears burst into her eyes.
"Later, I also thought about making a movie about abduction, but...hey, it's hard to tell in one word." Wu Tianxiong said.
"Director Wang, I want this script. I will definitely use my heart, force, and do everything to shoot him!" Wu Tianxiong said with excitement.
"Tell me what you think!" Although Wang Yifan was a little surprised, Wu Tianxiong still had such an experience, but he didn't respond immediately.
Wu Tianxiong also knows the weight of the script, so he pondered for a long time before he said: "First of all, the script is incomplete and needs to be improved. When I first went to find the old man, I had contact with a family seeking mutual aid association. A mutual aid organization established by some parents whose children were abducted..."
"I want to improve the script, maybe I need to talk to them, listen to their stories and experiences, and then I can make the script more real... However, I need to find someone who is good at this type of theme. The screenwriter will do it," Wu Tianxiong said.
Wang Yifan nodded and said, "I am also afraid that the content filled by the screenwriter will be disconnected from reality. Although the story of "Dear" is made up by me, I hope that this film can produce something real. So, your idea is good. I thought about finding a writer or screenwriter who is good at realistic themes to perfect this script, but I don’t have any suitable candidates in my mind."
Wu Tianxiong said, "I have a personal choice. The family seeking mutual aid association was actually initiated by an enthusiastic reporter at the beginning, and he helped those people find their children throughout the whole process. Related articles and news are published in the media. Although they are not professional screenwriters, they are also pens. The key is that he should have a lot of this kind of information in his hands."
When Wang Yifan heard Wu Tianxiong’s words, his eyes lit up and said: "This is good. In this way, it can save a lot of things, and the key is that he personally followed those parents who were looking for their children, so I believe I can definitely write something more real."
Wu Tianxiong nodded and said: "I believe this matter. He must be very happy to help. He can always follow this special group to help them. I believe he will definitely hope that the "trafficking" matter will be taken seriously by more people. , And if "Dear" is filmed, I believe it will have a certain impact on the society and attract more people's attention."
"As for the actors, what do Director Wu think?" Wang Yifan has basically determined that Wu Tianxiong can direct the film "Dear", so naturally the choice of actors needs to be communicated with him.
"Tian Wenjun, I think Ge Jun is very suitable. He has appeared in "I'm Not the God of Medicine" before. Director Wang should know him better, right?" Wu Tianxiong directly clicked on Ge Jun's name.
Wang Yifan thought for a while and said, "You can let him try!"
"Ge Jun himself has children, and he has a ‘earth taste’ in him, so I think he should be competent in the role of Tian Wenjun."
