Chapter 314 That’s it?(24)

Shen Xudong is writing at his desk:

"I've always been interested in horror movies."

"Horror movies have become popular in Asia in recent years. Japan has "Midnight Bell" and "The Grudge", South Korea has "Rose Flowers" and "Ghost Story" series, and Thailand has "Ghost Shadow" and "Ghost Wife". 》...Hong Kong film industry, not to mention, "Mr. Zombie", "Three Updates" and the like, are only missing from mainland China..."

"Of course everyone knows the reason, but I still think this vacancy is quite embarrassing!"

"I decided to try writing a few movies. As the saying goes, a country's soil and water nurture its people. Horror movies from different countries, different ethnic groups, and different regional styles are all mirrors that reflect regional reality and cultural precipitation.

Compared with Western horror movies that are bloody, exaggerated, and full of visual stimulation, Eastern horror movies are more restrained and restrained.

This is also closely related to the longer-standing mysterious culture, so what should a Chinese horror film look like?"

"I have always felt that there are two main essences of horror movies, one is terror, and the other is content. As for ghosts, it should never be the focus, because human fear comes from the unknown, and ghosts are just a type of unknown."

“After thinking about it, I think it should be combined with folk customs!”

"Actually, I wrote "The Legend of the Xing'anling Hunter" first, and then "Sanxian Village·Underground Palace Beauty" and "Mountain Village Fox Wife". When I submitted the final manuscript, I kept "Sanxian Village·Underground Palace Beauty" , because this script can be shot with tens of millions of dollars and it will not produce any effect. It is adapted from the murder case of the Dry Jing Yin Man in the last century. Any investors who are interested can take a look at the script from my side;"

"The reason why "The Village Fox Wife" was released first is simpler, because the scenes of this film are simple, it is easy to shoot, and the post-production is also very simple."

"Actually, when it comes to Chinese horror films, I personally feel that they either tell about folk culture, or about the harm that feudal superstition brings to individuals and families!"

"I will explore this general direction first, and latecomers can continue to move forward along this path. How far can they go, and can they produce an outstanding work that is enough to represent Chinese horror films? I don't know, but I know , it’s better to have hope than nothing. Complaining constantly can’t solve the real problem!”

"Let's encourage you together."

After writing this, I clicked to publish, turned around and looked at the big bed, and the senior sister was still sleeping...

It feels like...it's easy to gain artistic satisfaction.

It was good. Shen Xudong happened to be a little tired, so he took off his shoes and went to bed...

…

At nine o'clock, Shen Xudong woke up and subconsciously touched the pillow...

Zeng Li is indeed gone!

I still can’t. If I changed my mind, I would definitely wake him up...

Get up from the bed, go directly to the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, turn on the shower head, pee, wash your face, brush your teeth, wash your hair, all at the same time...

Five minutes later, I came out of the bathroom, found a hair dryer and blew my hair.

He changed into a clean white T-shirt and wore black jeans. He opened the closet and took out a black woolen coat.

I'm going on a promotional tour, so I have to dress nice.

Although he doesn't expect to look good, but he can dress up to look good, so why not do it?

After struggling for ten minutes, he opened the bedroom door and was about to go downstairs to have something to eat. Then he was surprised to see Zeng Li sitting cross-legged on the sofa watching TV quietly...

Seeing him coming out, he quickly stood up: "...You're up, I'll have breakfast...do you want to go out dressed so handsome?"

"...No, I'm going downstairs to eat...Why didn't you go to the set to film?"

Zeng Li explained: "I don't have any scenes during the day today, and I have to shoot a night scene at night..."

"...It was hard work shooting night scenes..."

Shen Xudong walked to the table, sat down, and started eating breakfast, but his mind was thinking about how to deal with her later...

The artistic experience is pretty good.

Although the degree of fit is not high, the degree of wetting is better. Given time and a few more runs, you will definitely be able to get it right!

Let's see what conditions she puts forward.

If it's easy to do, we'll help!

Then from beginning to end, Zeng Li didn't mention a word about whom he wanted to introduce to him...

This made Shen Xudong even more flustered.

If you don’t care about these things, do you care about other people?

That won't work, he still wants to make broken shoes... No, he wants to make art!

After eating, Zeng Li packed up the trash, washed her hands, then came back and said, "I'm very curious, how did you write a horror movie?"

“…what happened to horror movies?”

"I just feel that horror movies don't have much artistic content, and it's not like what you are... the screenwriter is willing to write."

Shen Xudong shook his head: "I... am very vulgar and never pursue any artistic taste or artistic value. Besides, horror movies also have great artistic value, such as "The Shining", "Psycho", "Strange Tales", " "Rosemary's Baby" are classics!"

"Then you are going in the direction of creating classics?"

"No, I'm just here to earn a salary! Screenwriters accept films and don't care too much about the genre..."

"Then if I ask you to write a cyan film, will you accept it?"

Shen Xudong shook his head and explained by the way: "...Cyan films cannot be released."

“…”

One sentence can stop Zeng Li...

Shen Xudong continued: "In the past, the film and television industry was called literary work and propaganda front. Now... it is mainly about entertaining the public. Whether it is behind the scenes or in front of the screen, your mentality must change... don't take yourself too seriously."

"Well, I understand..."

Zeng Li nodded, and then seemed to remember something: "Xudong, there's something I need to do, you have to help me!"

I'm coming!

finally come!

Shen Xudong sighed deeply and pretended not to care on the surface: "What's the matter?"

"I don't have an agency yet. Does your company sign actors?"

That's it?

Shen Xudong nodded immediately: "...Of course I sign, I will call Gao Fenfen now..."

Zeng Li stretched out her hand to stop her and bit her lip: "I'll fight later."

Wait a minute?

Shen Xudong looked at her expression and instantly understood that this was a signal...

…

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Xudong took senior Zeng Li to meet with Gao Fenfen and told her about the company she wanted to sign.

Of course Gao Fenfen warmly welcomes you.

In addition to Chen Hao, the company's actor department only has three actors - Huang Bo, Chen Xi, Chen Hao...

And Chen Xi’s main job is still producing...

Tong Yali still needs to go to school, and she is not allowed to sign with a company before she graduates.

Zeng Li... has a standard classical beauty appearance and decent acting skills. Even if she is not a first-tier actress, there is no problem at all in being a second-tier or third-tier actress.

The heroine Huang Yiyi of "The Conspiracy" is very suitable!

Gao Fenfen took Zeng Li to find Chen Xi, and the two discussed arranging a role for Zeng Li.

Zeng Li was a little confused, but she also saw the power of Tianmei Media. In half an hour, they named at least ten TV series...

Of course, the company does not invest in every film, but it can indeed build a relationship, such as "Young General Yang", "Red Ink Shop", "Emerald on the Roof"...

Although they are not the king of dramas, but... these are relatively well-known dramas in the industry.

"Young Yang General", produced by Tang Ren;

"Red Ink Shop", directed by Zhang Shaolin and invested by Zhang Guoli's Taihe People;

"Emerald on the Roof" is an idol drama co-produced by Haiyan's company and Taiwan...

They all have business dealings with Tianmei Company...

Anyway, Zeng Li was listening the whole process.

By the way, Shen Xudong has left. "The Village Fox Wife" has been released today, but the promotion will not start until tomorrow. The first stop is Shanghai. After all, this film was produced with the support of Shanghai United Cinemas.
