Chapter 1,220 The baby on the ground misses her mother
Li Yi and Mu Qing actually understood Guo Tongsheng's thoughts.
With Guo Tongsheng's current net worth, it is actually not difficult to invest in such a low-cost film.
He himself said that he could invest by himself, but as he said, even if it was not for making money, but for his genius student, he would never want his story to be lost to the public.
The threshold for movies is indeed not high, but sometimes it is very high.
In fact, Guo Tongsheng's story is still relatively weak.
Or lack something core.
His story is just that of a genius boy who had a tragic life. No one thought that kid was a genius, only he, the teacher, thought he was a genius.
Although he later proved that this child was indeed a genius, it was too late.
Mu Qing was moved by this story. It wasn't bad, but the story line was too weak.
There is a big difference between movies and simple movies.
For Guo Tongsheng, if Li Yi or Mu Qing like his story and are willing to adapt it into a movie, then it will naturally be much better than those directors he has access to.
This is also the reason why he took the initiative to come to the door this time.
In itself, it would be very difficult for him to get in touch with Li Yi or Mu Qing.
Li Yi's company receives countless scripts every year, but how many of them are seen by Li Yi or Mu Qing?
As for Guo Tongsheng's story, although he thinks it is unforgettable, it may not have any advantage over other people's stories.
And the key point is that the subject matter of his story is not pleasant. It is a children's subject matter. Even if such a story is made into a movie, how big a ripple can it make?
There are so many movies made in China every year, but how many are remembered?
Not to mention the ones that are remembered, how many of them can be seen in theaters?
"Duk duk duk!" Li Yi tapped his fingers on the table.
The movie he was thinking of was called "Lu Binghua". To be honest, works from different eras have the characteristics of their eras.
"Lu Binghua" was once a smash hit in that era, and it spread all over the country because of the Spring Festival Gala. However, it is undeniable that in this era, can such a story still have as much repercussions as it did back then?
"Mom Love Me Again" is also a story and work of that era. In the world in memory, this movie was once popular all over the country at that time. However, after Li Yi filmed it, the movie "Mom Love Me Again"
Although the movie has achieved good results, in fact, it is still far behind the glorious influence it once had.
This is the limitation of the times.
Because in those days, the film and television works that people could see were limited, no, it should be said to be very limited.
Although "Mom Love Me Again" can be said to be a blockbuster tear-jerker even now, this does not mean that it will be recognized by the market.
"Lu Binghua" is actually famous for the song of the same name, which became so popular because it was sung on the Spring Festival Gala.
As for the video itself, in fact, many people who have listened to the song may not know what the story behind it is.
"Mom Love Me Again" and "Lu Binghua" are actually somewhat similar to a certain extent.
The former has a song "Only Mom is Good" that has been sung for many years, and the latter also has a song "Lu Binghua", but the two are completely different.
"Mom Love Me Again" tells the story of mother-child affection, and although the song "Lu Binghua" sings about maternal love, the movie does not tell the story of maternal love.
At the same time, because of the background of the story, it will be easier to adapt "Mom Love Me Again", but "Lu Binghua" will be more troublesome.
Because this movie actually contains a lot of things.
Guo Tongsheng was a little worried. He had actually met with many directors and screenwriters to discuss the possibility and prospects of adapting his story.
But the results are not good.
Of course, because of this, although he had such an idea and had the funds, he was never able to make it happen.
Otherwise, even if there are not many directors in Baodao who are still active, it will not be impossible to find suitable directors.
The main reason lies in Guo Tongsheng's obsession.
Although his students were born in humble beginnings, they once ranked first in the world.
If his story is adapted into a movie and put on the big screen, but is lost to the public without making a splash, then Guo Tongsheng will definitely not accept it.
If that's the case, he'd rather never have it.
"Teacher Guo, to be honest, if your story is adapted into a movie, the story will be very weak and it will be difficult to achieve much." Li Yi pondered for a moment and said.
Mu Qing on the side also nodded.
Although for Guo Tongsheng, this experience was something he would never forget, and it was also a regret that he could never make up for in his life.
But for others who have no personal experience, the story alone may be quite touching, but that's just it.
In this world, something is happening every moment, and many stories are equally touching, but what is the result?
Guo Tongsheng's eyes couldn't help but darken. If even Li Yi, a great director who can be said to be famous throughout the country and a well-known director and screenwriter with a vicious vision, thinks so, then...
"Eh!" Guo Tongsheng sighed.
"However, it is not without hope." Just when Guo Tongsheng was about to give up, Li Yi suddenly said.
Guo Tongsheng suddenly raised his head in surprise and looked at Li Yi hopefully.
Mu Qing also looked at Li Yi with curiosity on her face.
"The so-called art comes from life, but it is higher than life. Therefore, if you want to adapt it, you must do some additions and subtractions." Li Yi said.
"What does Director Li mean?" Guo Tongsheng looked at Li Yi doubtfully.
"The Amin in your story has not had a mother since he was a child, but the story does not show much about this. Does he miss his mother? What is the motivation in his creative process? Just
Want to highlight his genius? To highlight that if he gets timely treatment, it will not lead to tragedy?" Li Yi asked with a smile.
"This..." Guo Tongsheng suddenly became speechless.
"In fact, I rarely heard him mention his mother..."
This is actually not surprising. According to the story, Guo Tongsheng taught there for a very short time.
He pays more attention to children’s nature and their genius ideas and talents.
This is understandable. Although he also knew that A Ming's family was poor, he had tried to help him as much as he could, but that was all.
"So, if it is modified, there will inevitably be some deviations..." Li Yi said.
