Chapter 32 Recording "Ask the Director for Advice" ([-])

"Welcome everyone to the program recording of the 2016 film and television director competition reality show "Please Advise the Director" created by the Penguin platform. I am the host Lan Ke..."

On the TV screen, Lan Ke was presiding over the opening, and the audience applauded enthusiastically. The actors and representatives were all well-dressed, and they did not forget to greet the audience when the camera swept over them.The professional appraisers are all sitting upright, most of them are professors from major film and television colleges, or well-known producers and producers in the market.The film critics are all stern, as if the whole world owes them money. They are such a group of critics, they make a living from this, and they are also the eternal enemies of directors and screenwriters.

After introducing the four producers, Lan Ke began to introduce the competition rules of this screening.

"Four producers divided sixteen directors into eight groups, and the directors in the same group taught each other through the public screening of their works. There were 200 public moviegoers and 50 professional movie appraisers. During the screening, everyone You can choose whether to press the leave button in your hand. When the total number of votes is less than 120, the film will stop broadcasting.

Directors with higher votes in each group will have the opportunity to cooperate with their favorite producers, and directors with lower votes will enter the waiting area. Four producers share two comeback cards at this stage, and at least three people are required to use the comeback card If the comeback is successful, the director with the lower number of votes will have the opportunity to cooperate with the director he likes, and the director with the higher number of votes will enter the waiting area. "

This is the rule of the first stage. Of course, Lan Ke didn't finish everything. What the director of the waiting area will do will wait until the final eight teams are duel.

But it was enough, Lin Hong already knew what Huang Li's schadenfreude meant yesterday.

The first 35 minutes of "Don't Stop the Camera" will be as bad as it can be. This is what Lin Hong knows, so there is a high probability that it will be forced to stop the broadcast. How would the other three producers comment, they would definitely criticize or even scold.After the work is finally screened in other forms, those criticisms and curses will turn into loud slaps and slaps back.

Well, since Huang Li didn't say what to do if he was eliminated, he must have the ability to save himself. Lin Hong still believes in Huang Li.

Soon the first group of two people who went out of the No. [-] studio to the examination room were Xiang Qiang and Bao Guangliang. Coincidentally, their films were all related to Nezha, as if they were a fateful duel.

In the picture, Bao Guangliang is as humble and lovable as ever, while Xiang Qiang is full of confidence, no matter who he is fighting against.

The works of the two are not long. After the screening, the actor representatives, expert film reviewers, and film critics all made comments. The producer also pointed out that there was a problem with Xiang Qiang's shooting techniques. This immediately aroused the rebuttal of Professor Meng Zhong, a teacher at Xiang Qiang's alma mater.

In fact, Lin Hong felt that the producer He Lei was right. Xiang Qiang's films were indeed more in form than in content. Although he was Lin Hong's senior, he stood by He Lei this time.

The final result was within Lin Hong's expectations. Bao Guangliang outperformed Xiang Qiang with a better score of 88% for the public and 82% for the professional audience, with a total score of 215.In the process of choosing a producer, Bao Guangliang chose Cheng Xi, an old acquaintance, while Xiang Qiang could only sit on the undecided sofa.

The two directors in the second group are Lin Hong is more interested in, one is the very individual rock director Liang Meigui, and the other is the history record holder of Doubanjiang Buffet.Although no one said it out loud, many people labeled this group "pecking each other" in their hearts.

The first screening was "Alien" by Liang Meigui. He used black and white images to tell the story of a minority group who were discriminated against and isolated, and finally followed their own self to find the same kind. Unfortunately, when the movie was about to end, the screen suddenly went black, and at the same time, the ear-piercing siren sounded , his film was suspended.

Lin Hong couldn't figure out why, this is obviously a very good work, very cutting-edge, full of ideas, it is the prototype of a rare experimental film in the Chinese film industry, why was it suspended.

There are quite a few professionals who think like Lin Hong, but the other half clearly express their dislike and discomfort. These two extremes have also created the first huge controversy today.

Liang Meigui didn't give any further explanations. Facing the audience's inquiries, he directly refused to answer on the grounds that it was inconvenient to explain because the movie was not finished. This is very rose and rock.

The key word that Buffet chose at the time was "remake". I was curious about which classic he would choose to remake, but he didn't expect that in the end he chose "Spring in a Small Town", which was extremely difficult and had extremely high requirements for acting and directing. Fortunately, it was not suspended, but his work was more controversial than Liang Meigui's "Alien".

Almost none of the professionals gave good reviews, saying that he was destroying classics.Later, everyone shifted the topic to the comparison and difference between Eastern aesthetics and Western aesthetics. Some experts directly characterized Buffet's works as "beautiful and elegant".However, Buffet wanted to argue vigorously, but in the end he seemed ignorant of a lot of professional knowledge, which made him a highly educated director.

Chen Ru, who came out to comment at the end, directly denied that this was Buffet's work, because this is not a remake, but copying homework.As soon as this statement was outstanding, everyone was in an uproar. This logic seemed to be correct. Some audience members who had not pressed the leave button before even tried to press it again to see if there was any response.

Seeing all this, Buffett burst into tears on the spot.

Comparing the two, Bi Fei's score was more than 80 votes higher than Liang Meigui, who was off the air, which means that Bi Fei, who was criticized as worthless, actually won.At this time, the two female producers wanted to use the comeback card, but Wang Pangzhi and Huang Li successively stated that they would not make a comeback.

However, although Buffet, who won, chose Huang Li, Huang Li did not choose him. In the end, both directors sat on the waiting sofa.

Two consecutive groups of directors played four works on stage, and the director announced a break of 10 minutes.Lin Hong was so nervous that he went to the toilet twice within 10 minutes. As a result, he couldn't urinate a drop like a prostatitis patient.

The reason why I was so nervous was because the next group was that he and Director Zheng Zhen would be on stage.

In fact, it is normal to record continuously for three or four hours. Everyone is not doing physical work. It's a little long.Of course, it is also possible that the program group wants everyone to rest enough to criticize Lin Hong and his works, and then slap, slap, slap...

Twenty minutes passed quickly, and the recording of the show resumed. Lin Hong appeared in front of everyone in Hall 10 wearing a well-fitting suit.

Meng Zhong felt proud when he saw Lin Hong coming in. He had participated in the screening of Lin Hong's "Three Monks" and he recognized Lin Hong's talent very much. He felt that Lin Hong would definitely be able to make amazing short films. Then he Besides, Lin Hong is a student of Jingying. What's wrong with his camera and shooting techniques?

"Maybe everyone is unfamiliar with Director Lin Hong, that's because Director Lin Hong is still a director who has not graduated, and there is only one graduation work "Three Monks". This time the program team invited Director Lin Hong to show that the art school For the cultivation of directors, let us give encouragement with applause."

The audience cooperated with the host Lan Ke very much, but it was obvious that the applause was a little perfunctory. After all, it is difficult for the audience to respond enthusiastically to a director they have never heard of.

Compared with Lin Hong, the introduction of director Zheng Zhen is completely different, because Zheng Zhen not only has masterpieces, but also won the best director of the film festival, and is also known as the new generation of Chinese female directors.The audience's applause said it all, they liked Zheng Zhen.

The first screening was Zheng Zhen's movie "Let's Watch a Movie". In all fairness, it was a very thoughtful and wonderful short film. At the end of the screening, Lin Hong also gave his own applause. He thought the movie was worth it.

It is rare for film critics to have many people praise each other. Cheng Xi even cried and confessed to Zheng Zhen because of this film, expressing that she must cooperate with her.

The most surprising thing is that Chen Ru also praised Zheng Zhen's good filming, and the movie was a success.

In the end, Zheng Zhen got 93% of public attendance, 98% of professional attendance, and 234 total votes.

At this moment, almost everyone judged Lin Hong out in their hearts, because it was too difficult for a student director to make a film of the level of "Let's Watch a Movie".

It was the turn of Lin Hong's works to be screened, but Lan Ke uncharacteristically gave a second interview.

"The key words selected by director Lin Hong are 'horror' and 'reversal'. I am looking forward to what kind of story this will be. I heard that you only spent a little over 85 to make the movie this time. , is the one that spends the least amount of money among all directors."

To make things happen, Lin Hong has already felt that the program team is digging holes, but now he is also happy to give praise to the program team. Anyway, after his film is finished, it will definitely be seen by the public. What do you like to do with the rest? How to play, man continue.

"Yes, it's a pity that there are still more than 14 yuan to spend. If I knew it, I would have ordered a more expensive box lunch!"

Lin Hong's humor aroused the applause at the scene, even louder than when he was introduced at the beginning.

"The public audience may not know that Director Lin Hong failed to invite any actors in the previous part of inviting actors, and he didn't think about what script to shoot at that time. Is this the case?"

Hey, you know quite a lot. This guy Xiao Liu has talked a lot. It’s okay. My buddies will give you more fire to make this show more popular.

"Actually, it is, and it can be said that it is not."

Lan Ke was taken aback. This is not a normal script. Doesn't it mean that Lin Hong didn't have a script at the time, why does he have one now?

"At that time, if I chose to make a short film, I had several scripts that met the requirements, but I wanted to make a feature film, so I decided to give myself one night to write a script that met the requirements. I failed to convince the actors to wait for my script, so I had to find actors outside."

In fact, Lin Hong could bring some actors from the crew to record the show, but unfortunately everyone had something to do, so Lin Hong didn't bring anyone. Until now, only Huang Li knew that Lin Hong invited those actors.

"Wow, feature film, director Lin Hong, are you sure you're right?"

As far as you are acting, you are not professional at all.

"Yes, I make feature-length films."

"You said you made a feature film in ten days and 85 yuan?"

"Yes, that's right."

This time Lan Ke was really surprised. Although she knew the answer a long time ago, she was still shocked when she heard Lin Hong say it with her own ears.

Not only Lan Ke, but everyone except Huang Li was full of disbelief.The mass audience may not know the concept of ten days and 85 shooting feature films, but their professionals know it, and they are too clear.

In an instant, Lin Hong and his short films were pre-qualified as: rubbish!

Although the film has not yet started screening.
