Butao was very confident.
Not to mention that he just made a movie that ranks 11th in film history, he is still very famous among second-tier film directors.
Such a person is definitely more than enough to film a TV series.
However, Shen Huan shook his head and laughed: "Director Bu, you are a few days late. Someone has already picked up this TV series."
"Ah!?" Bu Tao was stunned, "Who is it?"
"Director Li Zhuo." Shen Huan said, "Lao Xin came to see him a few days ago. We talked and felt that his style is very suitable for "Prison", so we decided on it. Now he has started to prepare for the production. Team.”
"Li Zhuo!"
After Bu Tao heard this, he sighed and said, "He is quite suitable!"
The style of "Yue Yu" is a bit similar to Butao's, but it is definitely not the most suitable, so he hesitated for a long time before.
As a result, now that he heard that Li Zhuo had taken over the second season of "Prison", he subconsciously felt that Li Zhuo was a very suitable candidate.
However, in this case, his idea came to nothing.
It's inevitable to become depressed.
Shen Huan also understood Bu Tao's loss.
In fact, it is common for film directors to make TV series.
In another world, didn't Fatty Wang also make a high-quality TV series "Across the World" for ATV in 1999
And that pair of weird directors who were first brothers, then siblings, and finally sisters. After such a classic movie as "The Matrix", didn't they also direct the TV series "Sense Hunt" for Netflix
There is also the more famous director David Fincher, who also made the famous "House of Cards" with the Oscar-winning actor under the money magic of Netflix's father.
Therefore, there is nothing shameful about movie superstars and movie directors going to film TV series.
What's more, Bu Tao deliberately chose such a TV series with a similar style in order to break through himself.
Thoughts flashed through.
Shen Huan then asked him, "Director Bu, with all due respect, what movie do you think your style is most suitable for?"
"my style?"
"Yeah, you're here anyway, why don't we chat about it." Shen Huan said harmoniously, "I know a lot about movies and TV series. Teacher Chu often discusses plots and categories with me. Maybe I can By saying this, can it be more inspiring for you on the road ahead?"
"That's fine!"
Butao nodded.
Shen Huan is a person in the entertainment industry and a genius. If we talk about it, we might come up with some new ideas.
"I am, in Mr. Hao's words, a director who is proficient in everything, but unable to achieve perfection in anything." Bu Tao laughed at himself, "You said I make movies, which type of movie have I not tried? Have you ever made movies that are blockbuster or not, action movies, romance movies, comedy movies, horror movies, suspense movies... I have made them all, but very few of them are impressive.
Take this year's "Stand-Up" as an example. I obviously made a lot of preparations, including storyboards, communication with Sun Dahe, the use of montage shots, continuous intercuts and memories, and various static I have carefully done the contrast with dynamics.
But what about the movie? Everyone said that Sun Daha acted well, and the suspenseful atmosphere was perfectly enhanced by his acting skills! well! It’s not that I’m dissatisfied with Teacher Sun, it’s just that I’ve obviously made efforts, but they just can’t see it! "
"It's not because you can't see it, but because you haven't been recognized, right?" Shen Huan added.
"You can also say that." Bu Tao said, "That's why I wanted to do a good job on "Yue Yu", let go of my hands and feet, and try to hone this dark style better! But I didn't expect that Li But I got one first."
"Actually, I've watched several of your movies. What's outstanding about you is exactly what you just mentioned, the dual-clue narrative mode, and then constantly interspersed with various scenes." Shen Huan said, "If you meet a good If the script just suits your way, it will definitely be performed to the fullest."
"Yes, that's what I thought too." Butao smiled bitterly, "But I don't have the talent to write scripts, so I wrote a few and filmed them myself. The best one was just a breakeven."
"A good director does not necessarily need to be able to write scripts, as long as he can identify what is the most suitable script for him." Shen Huan mused, "There are so many screenwriters in the industry, why don't you ask them to tailor one for you? ?”
"Who said I haven't looked for it? I spent a lot of money to find someone to write it." But Tao shook his head and said, "But my model is too abstract and too difficult to express in words, so what they wrote was unsatisfactory and was in vain. It’s a waste of other people’s hard work.”
As he spoke, he stood up and said, "Okay, after talking like this, I finally feel a little more comfortable. If it weren't for your good character, Teacher Lu, and you and Amei are good friends, I wouldn't dare Say these offending things."
Shen Huan smiled slightly.
Sun Daha's status in the film industry is very high. If you talk about him behind his back, it will definitely be bad.
But Butao's depression is understandable.
If it were Shen Huan, he would be annoyed if he made a movie that grossed 480 million yuan and ranked 11th among the highest grossing films of all time, but was ignored.
This is just like the directors of Master Xing. Except for Fatty Wang who can be remembered, everyone will only remember that this is Master Xing's work. As for who the director is... I'm sorry, I'm not interested.
Well, the same is true for Brother Long.
In this world, even the top six directors are often ignored, let alone Butao.
Seeing Bu Tao about to leave, Shen Huan stopped him, "Director Bu, I haven't finished speaking yet, don't panic."
"Um?"
Buto Tao looked at Shen Huan doubtfully.
"Actually, besides "Prison", I have seen another movie script that is very suitable for you. It can be said that it fits your style inexplicably." Shen Huan said calmly.
"Ah? What script? Have I read it?" Bu Tao perked up.
"It's called "Infernal Affairs". You haven't seen it. Only Teacher Chu Liuxiang and I have seen it." Shen Huan said with a smile, "I saw this script when I went to Teacher Chu's study."
While envious that Shen Huan could enter and exit Chu Liuxiang's study at will, Butao quickly asked: "What is it about? Isn't Infernal Affairs the most miserable level in hell? Is it a drama about suffering?"
"It tells the story of two men who have no control over their destiny and struggle desperately." Shen Huan's voice was a little soft, and it was obvious that he was also entering memories.
He thought of a world he could never return to.
But after a moment, Shen Huan smiled brightly.
Compared with the world that you can't go back to, the place you are in now is the most cherished.
The current life is the most important thing to live every day in a down-to-earth manner!
