Courtyard: My wife is Wen Li

Chapter 320 Those who don’t understand still don’t understand

The first part of "The Golden Guard" was well shot by Old Monster Xu. After watching it, He Yuzhu and Wen Ziren both felt good about it.

Among them, the Feiyu Suit and Xiuchundao are very distinctive, and Wuhan University has the style of Xu Laoguai. He Yuzhu is very satisfied. At least this is a very successful commercial movie.

"Very good, we can arrange a global release." He Yuzhu said after watching, "You can start preparations for the next one."

Old Monster Xu breathed a sigh of relief. He was under a lot of pressure. After all, this was a global release. If the box office did not do well, then there would probably be no chance of cooperation in the future.

At the same time, his company is also an investor. It is rare that any boss is willing to give up a certain share. You must know that this is a global release, and the box office in mainland China, Hong Kong Island and even Asia can make a fortune.

His directing fee is not high. After all, he is only a well-known director in Hong Kong. Facing Boss He, if he cannot make money based on the price, he still has to rely on his investment share.

"Thank you, Boss He, for giving me the opportunity. I will try my best to film the next two movies." Mr. Xu said.

"You don't need to feel any psychological pressure to maintain this style. The story must be told clearly and clearly. This is the most basic thing." He Yuzhu said: "I always believe that movies are about telling stories. On the basis of telling the story clearly, everything else will Something suitable for icing on the cake.”

“Engage the audience by slowly letting it blossom without compromising the integrity of the story.”

James Wan listened on the sidelines and nodded in agreement, "Indeed, the boss's movies all have very complete stories and logic. In this way, coupled with Hollywood's industrialization process, there will basically be no problems."

"Okay, you two, let's talk. I don't understand anything too professional." He Yuzhu left this place to them. They were both directors, so naturally what he was talking about was not something He Yuzhu could figure out.

He Yuzhu has always watched movies from the perspective of the audience. After all, he doesn't understand professional issues, and he is just an ordinary audience.

If most people can't understand a movie, then it must be a failure. Don't talk about being ahead of its time. A movie that was incomprehensible ten years ago will be understandable by ordinary viewers ten years later?

Nonsense!

It was like watching Mr. Xing's "Big Story" in his previous life. He found it interesting after watching it, but what did he understand?

have no idea!

In his previous life, in the 1990s, he watched "Big Story" in a cinema. Yes, he watched it in a cinema, but the tickets were issued by his father's employer, and he did not owe Xingye movie tickets.

But he was only in junior high school at that time, and it was quite interesting after watching it. As for the core of the movie, he didn't understand it.

When he grew up, he read it several times on the Internet, but he still felt the same. Do you understand?

I don’t understand!

He doesn't quite understand what classics are being talked about on the Internet. He is just an ordinary viewer.

According to He Yuzhu, why should ordinary viewers understand the so-called core?

You should laugh when you watch a comedy, cry when you watch a tragedy, and enjoy the special effects and kung fu. If you fail to achieve these, you will be a failure. This is the most basic need of ordinary audiences.

Regardless of how he reviewed the script and completed the film, part of it was based on the memories of his previous life, and the other part was viewed from the perspective of an ordinary audience.

He is not a producer, director, or actor. He has no so-called professional perspective. He is just the perspective of an ordinary audience.

It turns out it’s such a simple thing, but most professionals don’t seem to understand it, or maybe they don’t want to understand it?

Professional review must be highbrow, so do practitioners need to be different?

He Yuzhu doesn't understand their psychology, but he understands the thoughts of ordinary viewers. As a boss, he wants to make money, so who will pay for the movie?

Audience!

If you stand from the standpoint of the majority, you will definitely succeed. In the film industry, the majority is the truth!

He Yuzhu is unwilling to participate in the award because the winning film may not be liked by the audience. Why should I spend money to film it knowing that the public will not like it?

What does it have to do with me, the boss, to win awards for directors and actors?

Here, he looks like a capitalist!

In fact, James Wan saw it very clearly. He had been signing for a long time, and he was one of the first directors to sign with a management company affiliated with the Lion King Group. He discovered the boss's habits.

And I also discovered the secret of the boss's success, which is really unfriendly to directors and actors. After all, there are no awards to prove themselves, but they can be proved by the box office.

Just like myself now, "Chainsaw" and "The Legend of Yue Fei" add up to a total of nine movies. Although there are still two movies that have not been released, the combined global box office will exceed 2 billion US dollars.

This proves that he is not bad and is successful in commercial films. At the same time, because of the learning during filming, he has a better understanding of Eastern culture.

He found that Western culture is very exclusive, while Eastern culture is inclusive.

This will be very helpful for him when making movies in the future!

Director Zhang's "The Golden Jacket" was released. He Yuzhu didn't go to see it, but his family went to see it. They all said they didn't feel good when they came back. Director Zhang still had the same problem and couldn't tell the story clearly.

He Yuzhu had seen it in his previous life. After reading it, he really didn't know what he was talking about. The most beautiful thing was the military formations, costumes and armor.

By the way, there is another movie this year called "The Night Banquet". This is a movie directed by Feng. It is also a bad movie, but the actors performed well.

Just like what He Yuzhu said, people who don’t understand can’t understand now or in the future. Ordinary viewers won’t understand the movie in depth, and these viewers will always be the majority. People who don’t understand don’t care. I can't understand it at any time.

This will not change as time goes by. Of course, if there are more and more bad movies in the future, and they get worse and worse, then looking back, maybe everyone will suddenly discover that you are not that bad after all!

The film industry can't always rely on its peers to support itself. Will it still develop in that way?

He Yuzhu is unwilling to participate in the mainland entertainment industry because this group of people is as stable as ever and stands out for their thoroughness.

Domestic directors have the final say, and of course this refers to big directors. Hollywood also has bad films, but Hollywood can steadily produce good films, and Hollywood has a mechanism to make good films available.

However, there are no big directors or big stars in China who have huge privileges. For example, the movies made by Director Zhang just don’t lose money. What can you do?

Fortunately, after Director Feng failed, he turned back to filming "Assembly".

The consecutive blockbusters had a bad reputation, and Mr. Han was anxious again. Now that "Red Cliff" was about to start filming, he came to He Yuzhu again.
