As for Qin Baizhou? Did he pay attention to it? No.
Xia Siyu was originally his girlfriend and his wife, but now the two of them have taken the most important step. Qin Baizhou? He didn't even hold Xia Siyu's hand, he didn't take her seriously!
But he didn't value Qin Baizhou, but Qin Baizhou valued him very much. A group of actors were discussing the plot, but Qin Baizhou suddenly said: "The script is so detailed, what if there are temporary changes? This is Director Sun's first time directing. I want to know how much control Director Yu will have in it." Power? Director Sun, I know that he studied photography, and he can shoot beautiful shots with a photography background, but this is a movie after all, not a landscape album. Has Director Sun ever thought about how to grasp the plot and characters? After all, for movies, the plot is Clues, characters are souls. Other artistry is incidental. Also, in Director Sun's script, I saw a lot of critical things. Not to mention that it is inconvenient for this thing to pass the review. Movies are art, not It’s for criticism, not to expose some reality. Maybe that’s incidental, but more importantly, it’s a way of expression. I wonder if Director Sun will put too much emphasis on criticism and ideology, and instead lose the original intention of telling stories?”
Qin Baizhou's words actually hit part of the current situation.
Many filmmakers just want to shoot the bizarre scenes in their minds for the first time, without looking at the final film or whether the audience will understand it.
Of course, he admitted that there are indeed some really talented new directors who shoot very imaginatively. But most of them use stream-of-consciousness montage and various editing methods to show off their skills in one shot. In the end, they can’t even tell a complete story.
The audience watched the film with a low score and a poor box office. The filmmakers also blamed the audience, saying that "this generation's audience is not good". You don’t even look at what you’re photographing. If you don’t understand it yourself, why do you blame others for not appreciating it
Xia Siyu received such a low salary and spent six months working on a movie. Of course, he was worried. If there is no box office, no box office, and even bad reputation in the end, can the producer afford to pay compensation
The provocation Bo Yan just made did make Qin Baizhou a little uncomfortable. Sun Wujiu was recommended by Bo Yan, and his movie was planned and filmed with Bo Yan's help, and he also tricked Xia Siyu into coming. Most of the time, the director ruined a drama by playing haphazardly. Since you are going there for reputation and awards, then do it exactly according to that configuration. He almost wouldn't be satisfied.
Xia Siyu is easy to talk to, but he is not, so he naturally has to help Xia Siyu check things out.
The director does have a lot of power, but it also depends on the situation. For example, Wang Ju or Yu Fenfei, not only the actors must listen to him, but also the investors must give him some respect and cannot just add people to the crew.
However, a new director like Sun Wujiu faces a big shot like Bo Yan and Xia Siyu, and it is obvious that he has the right to speak. Maybe, everyone in the crew would listen to Bo Yan.
Qin Baizhou is known as the "Smiling Tiger" and is quite aggressive when fighting for the interests of artists. But when it has nothing to do with interests, he is always generous.
But this time, he lost control slightly because of Bo Yan.
Bo Yan's words of "I'll wait for you at home tonight" are simply an empty punishment for him!
