0377 Attitude and choice
An excellent premiere. When people are pursuing various shooting arts and film depth, a truck driver who has nothing to do with art told people that there is a kind of movie that has little to do with art, but is more important than art movies.
Attract people's attention.
Lynch did not leave immediately after the premiere. Fox and his son found him some well-known documentary directors and screenwriters in the industry. They wanted to sit down and talk. What Lynch didn't expect was that James would also come.
.
James was a little embarrassed when he saw Lynch. He opened his mouth to speak, then looked at the Foxes and his son not far away, and finally called "Mr. Lynch" instead of "Boss".
A simple title can actually allow Lynch to distinguish the current situation of James. He did not call Lynch boss, which means that he and Lynch no longer have a direct subordinate relationship at work.
"I didn't know you resigned, Cook didn't tell me." Lynch didn't have much idea, "Are you working at Fox Films now?"
James' embarrassment gradually subsided, and Lynch's indifference made some of what he thought was the betrayal easier. He nodded, "Yes, I'm sorry..."
He resigned from Cook's retreat and joined Fox Pictures. On the one hand, he has a very special talent in scripts. He is not a very rigid academic and always wants to show the depth of the film through some details.
Truckers don't have much depth, and if they do, it's the depth of road girls, not theirs.
Several scripts written by James have a very strong personal style, but the reputation of the film was not particularly good after it was shot. This may have something to do with the director and editor.
As we all know, there are thousands of good stories, but there are only so many good directors in the entire federation. Directors have a higher status than screenwriters, and so do editors.
In order to find new breakthroughs, James began to learn how to be an excellent director, which also left him little time to participate in the work of the transportation team. In addition, the Fox father and son hoped that he could jump to Fox Pictures to help them. In the end, James
After talking to Cook twice, I ended my work with the team.
Of course, he also has some ideas of his own. After all, as a truck driver, no matter how good he is, in the end he will be like Cook, the management of the team, and spend his life with a salary that may not be as good as that of a truck driver.
This is not what he wants, he wants to turn his fantastic ideas into reality, he wants to make more money so that his mother can live in a big house, then he must make more money,
Make more money faster.
Joining Fox Pictures is a very good choice. Fox and his son have just started and are still building their team. If you join at this time, you can become a veteran, and the resources will be tilted towards him, so there is a high possibility of success.
The only thing that made him feel a little embarrassed was that he felt a little sorry for Lynch. He felt that this might be a kind of betrayal.
However, Lynch seemed unconcerned. He patted James on the arm and said, "I am also the majority shareholder of Fox Pictures. In fact, I am still your boss. Don't think that you can get rid of me by changing your job!"
He spoke in a completely joking tone, which relieved James' nervousness and embarrassment very well, "Sorry, boss, you know..."
Lynch didn't let him continue, "People always have ideals, James. I'm glad that the people around me can find their own ideals and then find the right direction for their efforts. When you have the ability to direct alone, you also need support from others."
When you are ready, you can call me."
James was very moved. Although Fox Pictures is not yet a big company, some phenomena of power struggle have gradually emerged, and most of this is reflected in project establishment.
Screenwriters and directors in the company are all competing for how much investment a project can get and how much attention it can receive. If Lynch can stand up for him, his future development in the company will definitely be smooth sailing.
While they were talking, the Fox father and son and two slovenly middle-aged men wearing baseball caps and bearded faces walked in.
In recent years, in the film and television circles of Laldisme, a brown beard has almost become a standard feature for directors. Without a beard, you will lose points when negotiating cooperation, which has also led to everyone starting to grow a beard.
.
"This is the chief director of "Minority"..." Mr. Fox first introduced Lynch to the first bearded director, a very famous but also somewhat controversial director.
"Minority" is one of the most influential documentaries in the Federation in recent years. It directly uncovers the hypocrisy of the Federation people. This documentary uses the most detailed content to expose the lives of immigrants and indigenous people to the public eye.
.
It is precisely because of this documentary that the federation realizes how "ugly" and "evil" they are. Except for a few wealthy investment immigrants and scientific researchers, labor immigrants and indigenous people in the federation are facing a certain desperate environment.
Discrimination, humiliation, indifference, violence, crime, almost all negative social problems have occurred in this group, giving a severe slap to the Federation, which claims to be a free country where everyone is equal.
It is said that some people smashed the director's car and sent him bullets.
But no matter what, he became famous. After those disturbing days, he became quite famous, but what is a bit ridiculous is that so far, he has not received any new work.
When Mr. Fox was talking in a small circle about the need for a documentary director, the man who had heard the news from somewhere called him that night and asked Mr. Fox to consider him.
Another bearded man is also relatively famous. His fame is different from the previous bearded man. He is good at showing the good side of the Federation, and he shoots social documentaries that everyone likes, such as "Federation Family".

I thought he was filming a TV series, but it was indeed a documentary.
In addition, there are several screenwriters. Mr. Fox just mentioned some of their names casually, not even their masterpieces.
The status of screenwriters is indeed not high in this circle, unless they are very famous screenwriters and original screenwriters, but even then, the status of screenwriters is still not high enough.
Each production company receives thousands of scripts every year, and there are many excellent scripts among them. Once a big company takes a fancy to it, they will buy out the filming rights of the script at a very low price.
So even if the screenwriter has a great masterpiece, it has nothing to do with them. At most, they can give a few more when writing sequels. Do you want to share the money or copyright?
That's a joke!
After introducing a few people, everyone sat together, and Lynch talked about his thoughts, "I plan to raise funds to shoot a documentary about the federal people in Nagaril, which will reflect the federal people's struggle overseas from many aspects.
The difficulty and process, and the final reward.”
This was the keynote. Everyone nodded, and they wrote down this element in their notebooks, overseas, and struggle.
However, some people also put forward some ideas, "Mr. Lynch, why is it in Nagaril and not in a place like Gevra?"
The person who asked the question was the documentary director who slapped the entire federation in the face. His question was very realistic and tricky. "If it weren't for some of your experiences and recent events, people might not pay attention to the Nagaril incident in their lifetime."
place."
"Please forgive my presumption, I don't even know where this country is on the map, but I believe that the federal people, at least most of the federal people, are very interested in Gefra."
"Cultural, economic, military, political and social aspects are all attracting the people of the Federation. If the photos were taken of the people of the Federation in Gefra, it may have a great impact!"
What the director said is actually correct, but Lynch does not intend to encourage federal people to make a living in Gefra, and they cannot provide convenience to Lynch there.
Of course, he couldn't directly express what he was thinking. He could only express it in another way, "We can put this in the future. At this stage, we have very frequent contact with Nagaril. Secondly, once we
After the establishment of bilateral diplomatic relations, considerable capital will flow into Nagaril and their local authorities to jointly develop the entire country."
"People know nothing about it, so we need to let them have some understanding. This can also help us find some paths in the coming great era."
After hearing this, Mr. Fox couldn't help but exclaimed, "Great sentiment, friend Lynch!"
Lynch smiled, nodded and replied, "Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Fox."
The few people did not continue to ask questions, but Lynch continued to talk about some of his ideas. It must be said that these people have high reputations in the industry for a reason, and they soon summarized some practical content.
For example, what angles should this documentary be shot from? One thing that Lynch is very interested in is the progressive visual angle of "illegal" → "legal" → "above the law".
The person who proposed this idea was naturally the first director to slap the entire federation in the face. In his original words, if people want to understand Nagaril, they want to understand a real Nagaril.
Going to this place that I have never heard of before to develop, work hard, and struggle is definitely not for some great ideals and sentiments. He made a small sarcasm about the mutual praise between Lynch and Fox just now, but both of them were
As if nothing was found.
He believes that if you really want people to watch the documentary, put on your backpack and buy a boat ticket to Nagaril. The best way is to restore a real "profiteering society" and tell them what to do in those places.
Only in this way can they make money, money that they cannot make in the federation.
Even this is not a documentary about the lives and work of federal people in Nagali, this is a documentary about how to make money quickly in Nagali.
This guy is really a genius!
