Supervise the division of the film into parts. Leave the rest to you. "
Tao Mu said: "These are all easy to handle. But one thing, when handing over the script to Optoelectronics, we have to save a meal..."
Tao Mu didn't go further, but Xu Musen understood. Immediately interface: "Should I acquit myself with a drink? Hey!"
Xu Musen sighed and laughed at himself: "Don’t tell me, my brother, I’m really out of trouble. As long as the review issue can be resolved as soon as possible, so that "Black and White" can be released on schedule in the Mainland. Not to mention that I am asking me to sing alcohol to make amends. I am willing to drink until I vomit blood in my stomach."
Chapter 233:
Tao Mu has always been vigorous and resolute in doing things. Now that he has decided to be the producer of the mainland remake of "Black and White", that evening director Xu Musen brought the screenwriter of "Black and White" to Beijing to meet. Tao Mu also invited Zhou Hong, the director of "The Great Wall of Blood", and the screenwriter team to serve as consultants.
Sure enough, the efficiency of professionals is different. Under the supervision of director Zhou Hong and screenwriter Fan, Tao Mu combined with various professional film reviews that he had seen in his previous life to give suggestions for general revisions. The script of "Black and White" was revised in only a week. Fan screenwriter is best at adapting anti-Japanese drama. The classic anti-Japanese drama is characterized by its ups and downs. The original script of "Black and White" pays more attention to the description of people. Whether it's the plot or the lines, the whole story is full of concise but thought-provoking fatalism. Nowadays, there is a strong alliance, and the revised script not only echoes the main theme and values, but also has more sophisticated lines.
A week later, Tao Mu took the modified script to visit the leader of Optoelectronics. Tao Mu is good at dancing with long sleeves and exquisite all sides. He always likes to be kind to others, and he pays great attention to maintaining a network of relationships. When it is used, it will not give people a tendency to "employ people forward and not backward". Coupled with the previous Lingxiao Award ceremony, Tao Mu left a good impression on the leaders of Optoelectronics. Therefore, after this meeting, Tao Mu took the initiative to propose the review of the mainland remake of "Black and White". The attitude of the leaders of Optoelectronics was not too tough.
It's just that Tao Mu inevitably also murmured.
"... Don't you know how difficult those Xiangcheng people are. They have eyes and noses on their foreheads, and they will make a few movies and they will be despised. I look down on mainland movies and think that our mainland cultural system is useless. We spent a lot of money. The price is to ask the Xiangcheng production team to co-produce the movie. Isn't it because the Xiangcheng film is well developed, so do you want to use the money to exchange resources for them to support mainland movies? What did they do in the end?"
"While despising us, at the same time I want to come to the mainland to make money. The same crew must be specialized. Even an unknown third-rate celebrity who came from Xiangcheng would want to stay in a five-star hotel when he came to make a movie. Look down on mainland actors, It is said that mainland actors are not good at acting in movies and TV dramas. It is said that it is a co-production, but the leading actors and actresses have to use them to save people. Only the corner roles are left to us."
As a result, it was not enough for the mainland to retreat to this point. The Xiangcheng people could still come up with all kinds of moths: "... They often unite to repel and bully our mainland actors. The most overwhelming thing is that they can even separate the box lunch. ."
So later, Optoelectronics issued a written document. It is clearly pointed out that in the co-production of Xiangchengwan Province and the mainland, mainland actors must play the main role. And many other clauses. The main purpose is also to protect mainland actors from being bullied by the Xiangcheng crew.
When it comes to script review, the leaders of Optoelectronics are even more angry: "...it is clearly something that cannot be reviewed. Not to mention their Xiangcheng movies, even if it is a Hollywood blockbuster, our Optoelectronics treats the same. If we can't pass it, we can't pass it. We can't pass it. Isn’t it the same process for making movies in the mainland? Why are they so noble from Xiangcheng? Asking them to change the book is full of complaints, yelling that we don’t understand the art of filming blindly. At the end, a bunch of messy things are perfunctory. Released. After that, the response was not good, so I threw the pot to us again."
"Our Optoelectronics is almost becoming a back-to-back man!"
"When their Xiangcheng people want to enter Hollywood, how can they take into account the different aesthetics and cultural differences of foreign devils? When their movies are not popular in Europe, why don't they say that Europeans do not understand movies? Art? Co-authoring is that we inland people don’t understand movies, right? Can audiences all over the world be divided
Up? The Chinese currency is not worth m yuan and euros, right? "
"I think they are admiring foreigners. They are bullying. They are just looking down on us!"
The leader of Optoelectronics was filled with indignation: "We don't need him to look down on it! Our mainland market is so big, and our China Consumer Market has become the world's largest consumer market. In the world, people from any country who want to come to China to make money must abide by our rules. Go to the countryside and follow the customs. It's all right and right."
Tao Mu's ability to produce such good TV series "The Great Wall of Flesh" and "Fashion" at the age of nineteen is enough to prove Tao Mu's ability. After all, the profession of a producer is not the same as an actor. Relatively speaking, actors have only a single skill, and they only need to show their best side in front of the camera. Therefore, some actors who "God Enjoy Meal" can make their debut from child stars, and their talent alone can compare with the hard work of many people for more than ten years. Under normal circumstances, actors do not need to consider too much teamwork issues. The biggest difficulty they face in teamwork is probably playing against their opponents. As for other times, others cooperate with them. In terms of teamwork, actors are relatively the most passive profession. Even if you say a word in front of the media, you have to consider the opinions of the copywriter. This has also led to the fact that even the most glamorous star actor in front of the stage may not have the right to speak in the industry as a director who looks ordinary but has a solid foundation.
But the producer is different. Producers need to coordinate the overall situation. A competent producer needs to consider the budget of the crew and all aspects of the entire crew. It is also necessary to take into account the artistic and commercial value of movies. It's not a job that can be done well with talent.
If Tao Mu did not have more than ten years of work experience in his previous life, he would not be able to play the role of producer. But others didn't know Tao Mu's adventures, they only saw Tao Mu's success.
What does a 19-year-old successful producer mean for a film market that is just starting out? At least in the eyes of the leader of Optoelectronics, Tao Mu is definitely a young man worth training. This can be seen from the awards ceremony of the Lingxiao Award, "The Great Wall of Flesh" and even Tao Mu himself became the biggest winner. The leader of Optoelectronics definitely had high hopes for Tao Mu.
Since ancient times, China has a tradition of "heroes come out of youth". Even the most stubborn old antique will maintain a tolerant heart when facing young talents. What's more, Tao Mu is young but not energetic. Although he is energetic, he is not arrogant and talented. Being a person and doing things is remarkable and makes people comfortable. Optoelectronics leaders are also happy to train young people like Tao Mu.
They firmly believe that if there are more filmmakers like Tao Mu who promote the main theme and promote positive energy, why not worry about the development of the mainland film market
"This time you can accept the supervisory work of the mainland remake of "Black and White". It is also a good thing. You have to do it well, and do it seriously, so that those Xiangcheng people can see the capabilities of our mainland filmmakers. Although our mainland film market has started Late, but we mainland filmmakers can also make good movies. Their Xiangcheng people can't make good movies in the mainland, not all because of the limitations of the mainland cultural system, but they also don’t care about it, and they have not considered it. The problem of going to the village as the custom is."
"We in China have a vast territory. Even people from the South may become unaccustomed to the situation in the North. What's more, cultural thoughts?" said the leader of Optoelectronics: "If a mature filmmaker, he will only shoot those prohibited themes. Without these vulgar gangs, gun battles, pornography, gambling, and drugs, no good works can be made. Then how can we admit that he is a good filmmaker?"
The thinking mode of photoelectric leadership is very simple. Our Chinese imperial examination system for thousands of years can write so many colorful articles. Even the standard eight-part essay has a classic inheritance
