I don’t know if I know something or if it’s better to say goodbye than a wedding.
Anyway, after Li Yi and Mu Qing met, Director Mu almost did everything he could to make Li Yi live a happy life.
Hmm, it’s just a bit expensive!
However, the two of them talked more about movies.
"I always feel that the ending is a bit unsatisfying..."
After the battle between a man and a woman, Mu Qing lay on Li Yi's chest and suddenly raised her head and said.
"How do you say it?" Li Yi asked curiously.
The script Li Yi gave to Mu Qing was "Dear"!
In Li Yi's memory, this movie is considered to be the best domestic movie about anti-trafficking in another world.
Of course, the best thing here does not mean that this movie is really flawless. In fact, on the contrary, this movie is actually quite controversial.
The reason why this film has the highest evaluation among many anti-trafficking films is that thanks to this film, it is not just a film about the pain of parents of missing children or promoting anti-trafficking. The director's standpoint should be on ethics.
conflicts with the law.
But this is where the controversy lies.
Li Yi is self-aware and he can make changes, but in fact, he does not think that after making changes, he can surpass the original work.
So in the end, Li Yi simply didn't change it, because since the movie was handed over to Mu Qing, it would naturally be her movie.
"The character Li Hongqin..." Mu Qing hesitated.
"What?" Li Yi asked.
"Although my original thought was that the reason why Li Hongqin was alone in the corner of the corridor in pain at the end was because after learning that she was pregnant, she understood that her husband had been cheating on her for many years. So in the end, Li Hongqin squatted in the corridor and cried bitterly." Mu Qing.
said.
"So what's the problem? What are you struggling with?" Li Yi asked again.
"I don't know, I just feel like I don't like the ending very much." Mu Qing shook her head.
"This is your movie, it doesn't have to be made exactly according to the script I gave you!" Li Yi said.
"Yeah! Let me think about it again." Mu Qing nodded.
In fact, the production of the movie "Dear" has been basically completed.
But situations like Mu Qing's doubts about the ending actually happen to many directors.
Her approach is actually quite good. Some directors may have new inspiration after the film is finished shooting and the post-editing is almost complete, and then they can find actors to reshoot some plots and scenes.
...
However, what surprised Li Yi was that when she saw the finished film, she was surprised to find that the ending had not been changed, but she added a section where Tian Peng spoke Jianghuai Mandarin and restarted his life.
picture.
Li Yi didn't ask why, because he had said before that this was already Mu Qing's movie.
Regarding the promotion of "Dear", there is actually nothing special. This kind of movie itself is not suitable for entertainment promotion like other commercial movies.
"As for publicity, there is a plan that will definitely be very effective, but it is a bit sensitive, so I hope you can give me some advice." Mu Qing hesitated and said.
"Tell me about it." Li Yi nodded.
"Actually, the original intention of making this movie, as you know, is that Mr. Sun Bin has not found his child yet. It's not just him, there are many, many people. After they discussed it, they made a request to me!" Mu Mu
Qing's expression was a little complicated.
"Oh? What request?" Li Yi was a little confused.
"They really did not care about anything in order to find their children. They told me if I could help them find their children on TV. For this reason, they were even willing to show up and talk about their own experiences of finding their children. At the same time, they could
Help us promote the movie." Mu Qing replied.
Li Yi was silent for a moment.
He can actually understand these people, because they have been looking for their abducted children for too long. It can be said that they are willing to do anything that helps them find their children.
Li Yi could also understand Mu Qing's hesitation.
Because doing this is certainly requested by these people themselves, and it will definitely be of great help to the promotion of the movie.
But this is very sensitive, why do you say that?
Because movies will always make a profit, will this kind of promotion be interpreted as eating steamed buns made of human blood?
"Are you worried about the pressure from public opinion?" Li Yi asked.
Mu Qing nodded and said, "Not bad! What do you think?"
"This is indeed a problem." Li Yi nodded.
In fact, this is also the difficult part of sensitive, realistic films such as anti-trafficking films.
Li Yi remembered that when a movie about anti-trafficking was released, it was scolded by countless audiences.
He remembered that although the film also told the story of a father whose child was abducted and his journey to find his son, he didn't know what the director was thinking. The details of the film were not in place, and it was almost completely misaligned with reality, which left many people disappointed after watching it.
, they all cursed endlessly.
The most troublesome thing about realistic themes is that you can't completely follow reality, but you can't deviate from reality.
Especially movies with anti-trafficking themes are the most likely to touch the fragile hearts of many victims.
Not to mention, using real parents who lost their children to promote the movie will definitely cause great controversy.
"The solution to the problem is actually very simple. You didn't make this movie for profit, so just donate money to public welfare foundations such as anti-trafficking and child-finding. In this way, I think the problem you are worried about will not be
It's a problem." Li Yi said calmly.
Mu Qing's eyes lit up when she heard this.
In fact, directors at her and Li Yi's level are really not short of money.
At the beginning, Mu Qing actually didn't think about how much box office the movie "Dear" could earn.
Once the worries are resolved, naturally, the previous relatively sensitive publicity plan will no longer be sensitive.
Because in this way, it can be said that "Dear" has changed from an ordinary commercial film to a public welfare film.
Donate, since you want to donate, there is nothing to hesitate about. Li Yi in "I'm Not the God of Medicine" also donated directly without saying a word.
This time, the same is true.
The movie "Dear" has been completed and the schedule has been set quickly.
Instead of choosing a summer release date, we chose to release it on Children’s Day.
So the publicity started quickly.
In fact, the starting point of the movie "Dear" is much higher than that of many anti-trafficking-themed movies.
If nothing else, the screenwriter of this movie has Li Yi's name on it.
Moreover, the cast of the movie is equally luxurious, and many of them are old acquaintances of Li Yi.
Many actors from "Wreaths Under the Mountain" appeared in the movie "Dear"!
The first stop for publicity was Jingnan TV Station, which has a lot of cooperation with it. Mu Qing will take the crew members and Sun Bin and others to appear on Jingnan TV's "Movie Things" program.
