Chapter 248 Closing Ceremony (34)
Chapter 248 Closing Ceremony (34)
For Shen Xudong, no big or small director can compare to a director who is willing to cooperate with him!
Of course Du Qifeng is no exception...
Du Qifeng's romance films are actually a must!
There is an episode of "The Tenth Screening Room" that complains about domestic romance films, talking about "why do romance films all over the world always have a market, and it will always be the same story but never go out of date?" '
Because, in any era, any young people will experience love, and at the same time, everyone’s expectations for romance films are also the lowest. The purpose of watching romance films is really too simple: just need the director to tell them that although life is very trivial, every day Repeating from nine to five, experiencing several separate relationships, and no longer dare to touch the things and people around us wholeheartedly, but we still feel that love is a very beautiful thing in our hearts. At this time, you just need to shoot It is enough to produce a movie to tell us that love is the most anticipated and most beautiful thing.
Why are domestic romance films so low?
Now most directors don't even believe in love, but they go to make romance films.
You said that you want to shoot something that you don't even believe in yourself to convince everyone?
is it possible?
Du Qifeng should still believe in love...
"Lonely Man and Widow", "Slimming Men and Women", Johnnie To's script and team spirit are very stable. Almost every love scene can be repeated with a different lead actor, but his values do not change much.
His romance films are the same as Jin Yong's. Generally, girls like the male protagonist first, but they are not conservative. They will enhance the atmosphere and poetic romance, as well as a little humor that fits the situation.
Love light comedy!
Why did Shen Xudong encourage Du Qifeng to make a romance film?
Because...he really has several love scripts in his hand!
Love must be positive, bright, and warm like a spring breeze.
Even if it ends in tragedy, it is sweet and beautiful because of love.
For example, "Break Up Men and Women", "Male Talent and Female Appearance" and so on...
Of course, it's not because these scripts are classic enough, but they are suitable for Du Qifeng to shoot - after all, he has masterpieces such as "Lonely Men and Widows" and "Slimming Men and Women".
If he comes to shoot these works, even if the box office can't exceed 4000 million, it is still foreseeable that it will exceed [-] million!
Of course, Shen Xudong would not give him the script rashly. What if he takes the script and shoots it himself, what can Shen Xudong do?
Sue him?
He is a great director!
So, after returning to China, I have to find my senior...
Contact via Chen Hao…

Distinguished Citizens Receives Invitation to Closing Ceremony…
In fact, it was predictable, because before the closing ceremony, "Outstanding Citizen" won several off-site awards, such as the Most Innovative Film Award, the Film Future Award for Best Film, the Catholic Culture Award, the International Film Press Association Award, the Passine The Tee Awards for Best Picture and Best Actor and things like that...
Not only Shen Xudong didn't know what these things were, even Wang Qingqiang didn't quite understand...
There are dozens of similar awards during the film festival, and everyone is too lazy to care about so many, just accept the award.
Although the off-site awards have little to do with the awards in the main competition unit, winning more off-site awards shows that the quality of the film is reliable, and the hope of winning the main competition award is definitely greater than that of films that do not win awards.
And these awards are presented at receptions, the kind where you can eat and drink!
The crew did not fall behind...
By the way, the party still hasn’t been held—it’s too expensive. For any party, the venue usage fee starts at 20 euros a night. You can’t just use the venue, you have to prepare drinks, food, etc. Let alone [-] euros!
Forget it, it's fine as it is.
It is officially provided by a hotel where several people stay, and the hotel comes with two meals—it’s just not very delicious!
So, a group of people didn't actually cost much.
When I arrived at the closing ceremony, I was actually in the movie palace - there was no red carpet for the closing ceremony this year...
——In order to prevent terrorist attacks, this year's Venice Film Festival canceled the event of stars walking on the red carpet, and announced the list of winners in the deserted.
It wasn't deserted, there were quite a lot of people at the closing ceremony.
When Chen Daoming saw Shen Xudong, he immediately asked him, "Where have you been these few days?"
Shen Xudong hurriedly explained: "I'm talking about the script with Du Qifeng and Chen Kexin..."
"You...how did you meet them?"
"...I just met and chatted..."
Before Chen Daoming opened his mouth, Liu Bei hurriedly asked, "... What script are we talking about?"
"Romance movie script..."
"Romance movie?"
Shen Xudong nodded: "Hong Kong directors go north to film, romance movies are the best option..."
"Why do you say that?"
"Other types are easy to hit the wall..."
"Have you discussed the script?"
"I have a good idea of the script. In the next few days, we will mainly analyze the themes and genres that may sell well in the Mainland, and then discuss the scale and the like..."
Chen Daoming suddenly said: "Don't you feel that they look down on the mainland?"
"I don't care if he likes it or not. Anyway, if they want to survive, they have to go north to make films. In the end, the market will teach them how to face the mainland!"
"...Are you so confident?"
"Of course, the mainland market has huge potential. Just think about the movie "Shaolin Temple" that broke the one-billion moviegoing audience. What kind of concept is this..."
10 billion movie viewers, based on the current ticket price of 20 yuan, that is 200 billion...
Of course, Shen Xudong also knows that the number of viewers cannot grow indefinitely. "Wolf Warrior" is so fierce, the number of viewers still stays at 1.6 million...
But the market is here!
Shen Xudong suddenly pointed at Guan Hu: "Why doesn't the director speak?"
Liu Bei interjected: "...he's nervous!"
Cao Xiwen approached Shen Xudong's ear: "I saw the director reciting his acceptance speech yesterday!"
Shen Xudong beckoned Cao Xiwen to come over. The latter didn't understand why, and then asked Shen Xudong to say loudly: "...You can speak freely!"
Although I was very frustrated, otherwise, I would not have filmed "Eight Hundred" - after filming in 19, Director Guan Hu ran to take a photo with Qin Han during the sensitive period.
Mr. Qin Han is not only a descendant of Sun Yuanliang, he is also a bigwig in the Taiwanese film industry, and has considerable influence in the selection of the Golden Horse Awards...
It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven. No one thought that the 19 Golden Horse Awards would involve politically sensitive events...
Now that "Outstanding Citizen" is so popular, there are all kinds of heated discussions in the media, especially after arriving at the scene, a bunch of people wished it well, making it look like you...
Moreover, it was already the scheduled time, but the closing ceremony had not yet started. It was said that the jury had just left the hotel, so there was no choice but to postpone it.
While waiting, Xu Shi's atmosphere at the scene was too solemn, which made everyone's mood rise unconsciously.
Guan Hu's nervous hands were shaking...
Chen Daoming couldn't stand it anymore: "Don't think about winning the prize now, the gains and losses are already doomed..."
Guan Fu smiled wryly: "I understand...but I can't control it!"
"Look at Xudong, how calm he is!"
Guan Hu looked at Shen Xudong, who took out two pieces of chocolate from his pocket, and just noticed that Guan Hu was looking at him, so he handed one over: "... want to eat?"
