Moreover, the reputation of the movie is very strong, and there is no sign of a decline in fans' enthusiasm for watching movies, exceeding 500 million, and there is no problem at all.

The movies are selling well, and the status of all the main creators has risen.

Yang Qing is likely to become the director with the highest single-study performance in Chinese films with "Big Man"...

The last wave of Beijing Station officially ended, and Yang Qing accepted an exclusive interview with "Southern Weekend".

...

In this exclusive interview, "Southern Weekend" attached great importance to it and specially sent ace editor Yuan Lei.

She is known as the "Southern Yuan, Northern Meng" of domestic entertainment journalists, as well as Meng Jing, a reporter from Sanlian Life Weekly.

Wang Xiaofeng, the chief editor of Sanlian Life Weekly, once wrote in his blog post "Southern Yuan and Bei Meng", "If Yuan Lei can come to work in Sanlian, then the entertainment of Sanlian will be like a tiger. I think that Nanyuan and Bei Meng were Yuan Shu and Cao Mengde back then, and now Yuan Lei and Meng Jing, how much change is. These two people can get half of the entertainment reports, and both have both, and they are invincible."

Later, Yuanlei's focus of work shifted from paper media to video. Zhejiang Satellite TV's prime seasonal program "Same Class" on the weekend, she is the chief producer and chief screenwriter.

She has a status in the world, and Yang Qing respects her very much.

The two of them greeted briefly and then started the Q&A.

"Two years later than the previous work "Nightclub", what have you been doing in the past two years?"

"Actually, I didn't do anything! After "Nightclub", Xiaoran gave me a direction and made a movie with a bit warmth, but I went to write it in seclusion for a month and found that this thing was not what I wanted. It just so happened that Brother Jiong was preparing for "Lost in the Road", so I went to help, and it took half a year to do it..."

""Lost in the Road"?"

"Yes! My first movie "Nightclub", Brother Jiong was the first well-known actor to say to me, "I played this drama, I played this drama, you don't find anyone else'. That happened to be the first time Brother Jiong was filming a movie, and I could help, so I went to help."

"How did you find you with the script of "Big Man"?"

"It's just that Xiaoran has a mature idea. I asked me if I would like to direct it. I was quite interested. Then I took over the job and took the initiative. It took six months to polish the script. When the script is fully mature, it will be very fast to promote it. Our company has very professional producers..."

“What is the most difficult thing to polish the script?”

"It's just a lot of interesting points that you can't use. For example, my initial setting was because Sun Dasheng's investigation brought about a series of problems, and then relevant departments intervened, but I was killed by this method because it's easy to touch sensitive points when you write like this;"

"Did you make up the jokes in "The Big Man" yourself?"

"You mean entertainment attributes?"

"right."

"It's true. It's mainly because Xiaoran has the credit of another screenwriter Guo Shubo. We lay the general framework and then fill in some places the jokes, because this is a commercial film. Looking at the commercial film, you must have laughter and make the audience happy. Otherwise, it will be difficult to get a high box office!"

"Are you satisfied with this movie? Compared with the previous work, what breakthroughs are there or what I am particularly satisfied with."

"The entire production process of this movie is a process of re-education for me. I gradually discovered my deeper understanding of the movie. With my current aesthetics and perception of the movie, I have tried my best to make it what I am now.

Perhaps before filming "The Big Man", I may have paid more attention to the weaving of scripts, and perhaps more attention to the drama, plot, and logic.

While I was filming this movie, I actually gradually had a huge interest in performance and characters. Compared with my previous work, "Big Man" has greatly improved performance because I have this awareness and have moved my energy more consciously to the performance, communicate more with the actors, and finally serve the creation of roles."

"Evaluate Lu Xiaoran."

"He is the person I have ever met who understands movies the most. He is very professional and has endless creative inspiration. When he finishes his scene, he will make a science fiction movie. When it is released, you will definitely be shocked!"

"How did you know him?"

"I was his assistant director when filming "Border Storm".

"Do you have any impression of the first meeting?"

"To be honest, I didn't like him much when I met for the first time. I felt that I was just a young man who had lost his luck. Later, in the creative conference, seven or eight of us gathered together every day and gradually got to know him. When you understand, you will know that there are really geniuses in movies in this world!"

“What about personality?”

"At first, I thought he was very good at doing things and knew a lot of people. Later, after I got to know him, I realized that he was very proud. Ordinary people really ignored him. You rarely see him attending dinner parties or drinking parties. If you have time, you will have dinner with a few friends. He often teaches me a lesson not to interact with people with different values."

"Then are you grateful to him?"

"Of course, he invested independently in "Nightclub", and thanks to him for never asking me to do anything. After "Nightclub" was released, I attended several so-called gatherings in the circle. Many people in the circle told you, Yang Qing, I tell you what kind of movies you should shoot, what path you should take next, you should be like director XX… I was very distressed, Xiaoran said to me, 'What do they know, why don't they do that themselves?"

"He really respects the director very much and always shows the characters according to the director's intentions. Even if there is anything he doesn't agree with, he will contact me in private."

"Not only the director, he believes that everyone in this industry, from top to bottom, should be given enough respect. He told me: It is hard to expect disrespect to someone, but he gives you valuable things."

"I'm very curious that he provided the script idea of ​​"Big Man". Why didn't he be the director?"

"Maybe he is not sure about it himself, and he really has no time. Even this promotion, he only gave 7 days. There is no way, it's too popular... His schedule is full."

"Back to "Big Man", this movie has achieved very good market results at present. Have you expected it before?"

"I really didn't think about this. In fact, what we thought was to recover the cost. If we could make a small profit, we didn't expect to be so popular!"

"In the end, what do you think of his acting skills?"

"…At least, no one can match his performance in "Big Man", he is the best actor in my mind!"
