After getting Shidi at the start

Chapter 235 Happy Filmmaker

Now that the main creators have come to the scene, it is naturally impossible to just show the movie and say a few words before leaving.

The interactive question-and-answer session is definitely indispensable at this time. Even if the students have no questions, there will be someone who has been arranged in advance to ask them.

"I want to ask the senior, do you think the protagonist... such a choice, right?"

As a result, when the first question came up, it was a bit sharp.

Of course not for the director, but for the protagonist in the film.

The starting point of the tragic fate of the three protagonist brothers lies in the greed of the protagonist at the beginning.

Greedy is greedy, but not bold enough, if he really killed Wei Zhongxian together, maybe there will not be so many things.

Even if Zhao Zhongyi wants to punish them, as long as they grasp it by themselves, it will not be so easy.

This is actually a very controversial topic, because this story is obviously, without the choice of the protagonist, it will be difficult to proceed later, but the consequences of the choice of the protagonist are indeed uncomfortable to watch.

At least from the perspective of the audience who watched it for the first time, even if they rationally want to understand, they are not quite able to accept it, and they always wonder if there is a better way.

Lu Xing already had an answer to this kind of question, so he said without thinking: "About this, if I say it is necessary for the plot, you will definitely be dissatisfied.

"Of course, the plot needs to be true, and the character, background, and experience of the characters determine their choices. I don't know about others, but when I write the script, I first determine the respective settings of the characters. , Let’s push the story again.

"Of course, there will be a general story framework first, but if I feel that this framework does not conform to the character's personality, then I will definitely change it.

"And as I said, in this story, the protagonist will make such a choice, and at that moment, it is the most correct for him, because he desperately needs this at that time.

"It's like I'm asking you now, if the protagonist doesn't make such a choice, but chooses to complete the task, and then doesn't take money or kill people, do you think the result will be better than now?"

The student thought for a while, then shook his head, and the other students also shook their heads.

Obviously, it has been shown in the video just now that Zhao Zhongyi has never planned to let them go. From the very beginning of choosing them, he has the intention of killing them later.

And being chosen by him can't be said to be the fault of the three protagonists, right?

And if there is no money, the three brothers will face more urgent troubles, and they don't need Zhao Zhongyi to take action, and they may already be in a mess.

It can only be said that this is the tragedy of the involuntary little people in this era.

In fact, not to mention that era, even now, don't small people usually encounter many big and small ones, and they can't help but choose?
Especially if it is related to money, it needs money to solve it.

As the saying goes, poverty is the biggest disease.

And facing powerful people like Zhao Zhongyi staring at them, the situation of the protagonist's three brothers will be even more troublesome.

He could make them face a desperate situation by using any means at will.

You can dodge it once, but it is impossible to dodge it again and again.

And this also has the effect of the protagonist's halo, otherwise they would die first several times in the movie.

So it's kind of like, it's kind of incomprehensible.

After the junior sat down, but before the next question, Lu Xing suddenly pointed at Li Mingji and smiled: "Actually, when it comes to changing the script, I have one more thing to say—a statement in advance, this is not What deliberately engages in propaganda is a matter of seeking truth from facts.

"Mr. Mingji gave me a lot of advice during the process of finalizing the script. His agent and our producer, Mr. Wang, are very clear about it. The rest of the crew also knows a little bit. Anyone who is 'interested' can go to verify it.

"To be honest, I chose Mr. Mingji as the male lead at first, on the one hand, it was for the purpose of 'cheat' investment (laughs), after all, everyone knows that he was so popular in the past, right, he must be very rich, The company must have made a lot of money, so it's not a big problem to take more money to 'support' our small crew, right?
"On the other hand, I just wanted to rub off on his popularity. Of course, at that time I didn't know that he would be so popular after taking over the filming of 'Bodyguard', so I really made money..."

"Hahaha……"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help laughing.

Among them, there are actually many people who have changed their opinion of Li Mingji slightly because of the "bodyguard", and then just watched a good movie starring him, so now they have a good impression of Li Mingji, and Lu Xing said Anything they would like to believe.

Of course, there was really no need for Lu Xing to lie to them about this.

On the contrary, if they don't talk about some things, the media will write about them in this way, and express them directly, so that if a reporter asks a question later, they will deliberately make trouble about why he chose Li Mingji.

After everyone finished laughing, Lu Xing continued: "A lot of people will probably think after listening to me, why don't you, a director, be responsible for your own work at all, and just focus on the traffic, just to promote the quality of the movie? Have you given up?
"That's really not the case. At least I didn't make up my mind at that time. And everyone knows what kind of person Mingji Teacher is in the media. How could he fall in love with us who are not well-known and seem to have no prospects? What about the director and crew?"

This is a bit sad to say, after all, he is a senior, and there are still some juniors who know about his previous situation, but seeing his embarrassing expression clearly saying "he just fell in love with it", I feel a little like laughing .

Sure enough, Lu Xing immediately said: "Then everyone saw it, hey (emphasis), he really fell in love with my...script. Not only did he agree to invest, but we also met for the first time (raise index finger), go to Producer Wang and I had a treat at the restaurant, and we chatted about the script after dinner.

"The script at that time was not what you see now. In the original setting, the protagonist was a licking dog - I didn't know this word well at the time - it felt like a young man's word.

"I asked him at the time, what I said was 'licking a dog', and he said, 'It's called licking a dog like you who took the initiative to post it to me for no reason'. I said oh, I understand, it's simple and clear... "

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The laughter became louder now, and even some reporters and teacher leaders couldn't help laughing.

For the teachers and leaders of the school, it is of course gratifying to see the outstanding performance of the students.

And those who engage in art, don't let him be more wild. If there are too many rules, won't it suppress the spirituality instead?

Previously, even the leaders were reluctant to give up their speeches, and this is even more of a problem.

Li Mingji was also laughing, as for the conversation that Lu Xing made up, there was no need to clarify anything.

To put it bluntly, you don’t know whether the jokes from many celebrity interviews are real or made up. Even if they are made up, they are said many times. Anyway, only the parties themselves know, and it will gradually become "true". up.

What's more, this is just a small matter, to adjust the atmosphere, and besides, he is still bragging about himself in general.

"Of course, the changes are not limited to the character design of the protagonist, the heroine... I originally set it as a love triangle, that is, the Mr. Zhang who was killed by him. I originally set it as the lover of the heroine, so the protagonist is the heroine. Lick the dog.

"But Teacher Mingji told me at that time, he asked me if you have ever been in love? I said I have children, and he said 'oh, that means you have never been in love'..."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Clap clap clap clap!
First there was laughter, then applause. It seemed that everyone liked his speaking style very much.

Li Mingji knew before that this director is very good at talking, and only now did he know that he had a talent for cross talk.

The emotions in the audience were all mobilized by him, and every three sentences were a burden, which made people feel a little "can't stop".

And he seemed to be addicted, and continued to talk: "Mr. Mingji saw that I was not convinced, so he told me, if this movie is a bloody youth romance movie, then don't talk about love triangles, square loves , Wujiaolian...the Eight Diagrams array is all right..."

"God damn gossip array..."

"Hahaha, it's so interesting..."

The students in the audience have already reached the point where they laughed and complained and discussed a little when they heard what he said. It is rare that they are so happy.

If there were crews to promote before, and the purpose of promotion was, then they felt that it was more about bringing them happiness.

Although the movie just now was still depressing, unpleasant, and somewhat regrettable, it was still a HE after all.

"I understood at the time, oh, that's right, I was shooting a martial arts film, why should a martial arts film have protagonists such as mistresses, love triangles, etc. Why can't the protagonists be sweet and sweet? Yes, isn't it good to have a good relationship?

"And I don't need this kind of setting to promote the plot, right? That's something that people who can't think of how to arrange the plot routine will do it. So I changed it and directly changed it to their double arrows. The hero and heroine are the supporting characters. With one face, the supporting role is also matched with one face (the third brother and the daughter of the hospital)..."

As soon as he said this, everyone immediately thought of the current TV drama market, not to mention martial arts dramas, workplace dramas, fairy tales, fantasy, history, etc., as long as there are men and women, they must fall in love. Falling in love is not counted, but sadomasochism has to be deep and desperate.

As for those promotional videos about the flow of people under the banner of nostalgia for youth, let alone.

Do audiences really enjoy watching this?
This is not necessarily true. To put it bluntly, it is not because of the good-looking parents and the good marketing, but some fools are rushing to be deceived by others.

And most of the audience are just "victims" who follow the crowd.

Moreover, leeks are often in the same batch, but the sickle for cutting leeks can be changed batch by batch. The same type, or even the same plot routine, except for the name of the hero and heroine, is basically carved out of the same mold, which is not as good as copying and pasting. Not much.

And that's it, there are still fools who are willing to be fooled, and spend time, affection, and money for this, chasing dramas and stars.

simply……

It is true that the capital and the production of bad dramas that like to be lazy are the root of all evil, but do these stupid audiences and fans who are so easy to be cheated and fooled and feel very happy should take some responsibility for this deformed market?

It's no wonder that some directors say things like "this is the worst audience I've ever seen". The words are a bit one-sided, and his starting point may not be innocent, but sometimes it is really applicable.

At this time, Director Lu continued: "There are still some small details, I won't explain them one by one. What I want to say is too time-consuming. Besides, Mr. Ming Li is not a greedy person. After all, if it wasn't for me He will never mention this matter here, and everyone will never know about it.

"Of course, when I mention this to everyone, I mainly want to tell everyone that you should not watch this movie with prejudice against Mr. Ming Li. If you must have problems, then I will recommend you to watch "Bodyguard" first... "

"Hahaha……"

This is the first time I have seen this kind of operation of promoting a TV series starring in the premiere of my own movie.

Of course, with the current popularity of "Bodyguards", it's hard to say who will favor whom.

As Director Lu himself said before, after the "bodyguard" became popular, they really made money by inviting Li Mingji.

Then I ordered another school girl, "Hello, senior, I would like to ask, what do you think of Teacher Li Mingji's performance in it? If you can give it a score, how much would you like to give it?"

"About this question..." Lu Xing thought for a while, then pointed at Li Mingji and smiled, "I think it's better for Teacher Mingji to talk about it in person."

"Ah?" Li Ming was stunned. It's none of his business. What he was asking was your evaluation.

But I can't refuse at this time, so I can only bite the bullet and say: "It's a difficult situation for me to evaluate myself. But the director, the most authoritative person in the crew, I'm afraid that if I don't answer well, in case If there is a sequel, what if he won't let me make it?"

This "in case there is a sequel" made the audience boil, and this is the first time he has officially mentioned this in public.

Lu Xing was also surprised, but soon calmed down. After all, what Li Mingji said was relatively conservative, and if something went wrong with what he said, he would be slapped in the face.

Well, it's that true.

At this time, Li Mingji pretended to be embarrassed and said: "It would be too cheeky to say that I am great, and it would appear that I have no self-knowledge..."

This "self-knowledge" is used well, and everyone who understands it laughs on the spot.

Li Mingji also smiled and continued: "But I still choose to be shameless. I think I am great because I am very self-aware. In fact, if I want to be shameless, how can the rest of the crew do it?"

"What... what do you mean by that?"

"It should be said that he is the most handsome..."

"Fuck, I'm not convinced by other words, but I'm really convinced by this face."

"I don't think he's very handsome, I think he's not as handsome as a senior..."

"When did you become blind?"

"This actually means that I don't care about my own image when I shoot this movie, isn't it another meaning of being shameless?"

"It seems to be true. It's a pun, but I think it's true. When I was in "Bodyguard", I turned him black, and this movie seems to be turning fans."
