"There are two main opinions above. The first is that historical nihilism is not advisable in major events, and the other is that the matter has not been completely concluded. The leaders of the Propaganda Department and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have rejected this script."
In a certain club, Lai Peikang informed Li Qian of his superior's opinions on "Flight of Destiny".
After completely recounting the attitudes of the two departments towards the script, Lai Peikang also asked Li Qian with some confusion, "It's so good, why are you filming this subject?"
"It's nothing. When I first heard the news, there were many compatriots on the plane, and I was heartbroken. There were more than 150 people and hundreds of families involved. The fate of these families has all been changed.
I just thought, if this thing hadn't happened, they would have landed at the airport smoothly, and their future life would be a different story. And those who haven't found it yet, at least they haven't found the plane wreckage yet. If it's like many supernatural incidents,
, what is their life like if they survive."
Li Qian shook his head, "At that time, I saw many similar suspenseful incidents on the Internet. In 1990, a passenger plane from New York to Florida in 1955 appeared at Caraga Airport in Venezuela. It was deemed to have crashed as early as 1955.
But he suddenly appeared again 35 years later. Everyone on the plane had the same appearance, and they didn't know they had traveled 35 years."
"???" Lai Peikang's forehead was full of question marks.
"Of course, this rumor is false." Li Qian added.
"This rumor gave me an inspiration. The "dead people" who had disappeared for 35 years suddenly appeared and how they and their families continued their lives. It was a very interesting story. However, 35 years was too long, so I changed it to five years in the script."
"Just because I read a rumor during the Air M incident, it will be made into a movie?" Lai Peikang also can't understand Li Qian's brain circuit. Just search the top ten unsolved mysteries on Baidu for similar things.
Keywords will bring out a lot of them.
Li Qian smiled and said, "That's not entirely true. In fact, I have checked a lot of supernatural flight times. Some are true and some are false. They are all very interesting, and they are all related to traveling through time and space. Plus, I didn't have any good ideas at the time, so I gave it a try.
I wrote a notebook."
There are quite a few such stories, and some of them are true and false, and it is impossible to find out whether they are true or not on the Internet.
In 1994, an Italian flight disappeared from the radar for 20 minutes. However, when the plane landed, no one on the plane had any reaction. They all thought that the plane was flying normally and landed, but after landing, the plane
The time on everyone's watches is 20 minutes slow.
Something like this is true, and it's not as bizarre as the one that disappeared for 35 years. Many people still believe it.
However, the problem now is that the script has been returned and this problem must be solved.
Li Qian immediately said, "These two opinions from superiors, the Civil Aviation Administration of Malaysia announced that the plane crashed and the passengers were killed, and they also deduced the approximate scope of the crash. This is already qualitative."
Lai Peikang said, "It doesn't count. According to the above, it will only count if the Malaysian side announces the final report on the incident and seals the coffin."
Li Qian was also speechless, "Malaysia already characterized the incident last year. Why do we have to dwell on this?"
"You don't know that the central leadership expressed great importance to the incident not long ago and allocated a sum of money to support investigation and search and rescue." Lai Peikang explained.
Come on, Li Qian understands.
"Then what is historical nihilism about this major event? It seems to have nothing to do with it."
"It is the result of a major historical event that cannot be changed. Air M has been confirmed to have crashed and the passengers were killed. This is the result." Lai Peikang explained patiently.
Li Qian didn't say that what he was photographing was not M Airlines. It looked too similar at this time, but he didn't understand. "Didn't I just say that the matter has not been finalized yet? How come he was killed? Since there is no final conclusion, it means that there is no conclusion yet."
There are various possibilities, and one of them in my movie, even if it is one in a trillion, is not historical nonsense, and it has nothing to do with history."
"Director Li, please stop making excuses with me. It's useless to talk to me." Lai Peikang didn't listen to Li Qian's reasoning.
Okay, Li Qian understood again, that is to say, the result of Air M has been determined, but the conclusion has not been finalized yet.
Both statements are reasonable.
What about historical nihilism? Those anti-war dramas are not all made up, but countless times traveled through history at singular points and changed history. That is the real historical nihilism.
"Actually, Director Li, if you insist on filming, you can change the script. If the plane is changed to a train, there should be no problem." Lai Peikang gave a suggestion.
"That's not possible. The train is running on the ground and you can see the whole journey. It is different from an airplane. An airplane flies at an invisible high altitude. It is precisely because it is invisible that it can leave the audience with endless reveries." Li Qian shook his head, he also
I haven't thought of referring to Zheng Yuanjie's fairy tale "Train No. 7801".
Moreover, a train can often carry two to three thousand people, while a large passenger plane can only carry two to three hundred people. There is a huge difference in body size and passengers.
"There's nothing we can do about it. It probably won't pass the trial in a short time. After all, this is an international incident that attracts the attention of the whole world. Let's wait until the matter calms down after a while," Lai Peikang said.
"Then it's troublesome for Mr. Lai."
There was no way, he had to accept it even if he didn't accept it, so Li Qian could only wait.
That’s good, there’s no rush for storyboards and storyboards, there’s plenty of time to prepare and rest.
However, maybe I can write another script and submit it for review as required. After the movie is finished and the matter has calmed down, there won't be so many rules.
It’s common to kill first and tell later. Li Qian started to think about it.
Just when Li Qian was planning to write another script to fool him, someone unexpectedly broke the news on the Internet that the script for his new film had been rejected after review.
"Exclusive news: Li Qian's script was submitted for review and was rejected, and his new film may be cut in half!"
The words "Dou Da", "killed" and "cut in half" are prominently displayed on the home page of a certain forum.
Although there is not much text in the leaked post and the name of the script is not mentioned, it has attracted the attention of many netizens.
Li Qian's movies have already attracted much attention, and the fact that they failed to pass the review is even more big news. After all, all of his movies are positive and uplifting.
"Holy shit, is it true or not, Li Qian's script didn't pass the review?"
"It's fake, there's no reason for such a positive director like Li Qian."
"I'm going to rewrite it. The author has lost his salary today. Except for the title, what you wrote is not surprising at all."
"By the way, Li Qian is a quick shooter. Logically, the filming of his new movie should have started now, but there is still no news. Could it be that it really hasn't passed the review?"
"It's really possible. There hasn't been any movement for so long. It's unreasonable."
"It can't be similar to "I'm Not the God of Medicine," right? When I first watched that movie, I was surprised it wasn't banned."
"Could it be that the script of the new film was really rejected? With Li Qian's reputation, what kind of script would fail the review?"
"It must be a realistic theme, but I don't know what it is about."
"It can't be to expose the shady story of the real estate industry. Now that the GDP of all parts of the country is driven by real estate, it is normal for this subject to be suppressed."
Li Qian, who is known for his high efficiency, has had no news about a new film for a long time. Such an abnormal move, when the script was suddenly revealed and was rejected, coupled with the fact that netizens continued to reprint and discuss it, it is difficult not to make people curious.
As a result, various speculations began on the Internet.
Not only netizens, but also the industry was shocked by this sudden news. Will Li Qian, a positive commercial film director, sometimes fail to review his script?
People in the industry began to inquire about various connections, but there were only about ten people who had handled Li Qian's script from top to bottom, so ordinary people couldn't find out anything at all.
But some people with great powers, such as Yu Dong who came out of the system and a few others, actually found out something.
"I didn't expect that Li Qian would have such a day!"
Huang Zhongjun, who had just received the news from a deputy director of the Film Bureau, could no longer suppress his smile.
"It's confirmed. Li Qian submitted a script before, but it was rejected by the Propaganda Department and the Foreign Teachers Department."
"Ha ha"
Huang Zhonglei was also very happy, "Let me tell you, why haven't you heard any news about his new movie for so long? What kind of shady themes are you working on? By the way, brother, what kind of movie was he rejected?"
"I don't know about that. I asked Director Hu and he didn't tell me, but it shouldn't be an ordinary subject." Huang Zhongjun shook his head.
"So mysterious?"
Huang Zhonglei was slightly surprised, but it didn't matter, "Whatever, I guess it's because of the continuous success that I'm drifting away. I'm suffering from a youthful illness. I want to shoot something different."
Huang Zhongjun thought about it. Ma Xiaogang also went through this period. Instead of making comedies, he would pursue some useless things.
"But this is a good thing. It would be great if he plunged in and couldn't get out. The film market can only return to normal without him, Li Qian!"
No matter what, everyone who has heard about it is very happy that Li Qian's script has been rejected. The industry really wants to live without Li Qian.
The fact that Li Qian's script was killed is still being circulated in the industry on a small scale, and online viewers can only discuss and speculate, but there is no definite news.
Li Qian did not explain anything here, but on November 1st, the Lunar New Year holiday was coming, and there were still 40 days before the release of "The Flowers of the Heart", and he announced that audience meetings would be held across the country in ten days.
The show will also be screened, and will be screened on a large scale half a month in advance. At the same time, exclusive online ticket pre-sales will be launched on the Future Movies APP.
The unilateral announcement of "Beautiful Heart" ignited the Lunar New Year war, catching the entire industry off guard.
Especially the opponents in the Lunar New Year stalls were immediately shocked.
Large-scale pre-sale + exclusive online ticket agent seems to be a familiar routine.
It has been used in two movies, including "Thailand" and "Rejuvenation", and both of them were box office hits, crushing all the movies in the same period.
This trick has not been used even in "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and "Detective Chinatown", which shows Li Qian's absolute confidence in "Beautiful Heart".
Major companies that have new films released during the Lunar New Year period are suddenly facing a formidable enemy.
Especially the investors of two other popular movies, "Lao Pao Er" and "Ip Man 3", suddenly became nervous.
The Huang brothers, who were still happy that Li Qian's script was released just now, now had most of the smiles on their faces faded.
"Love" will be released on the 10th, "Lao Pao Er" will be released on the 17th, "Ip Man 3" will be released on the 24th, and "The Breakup Master" will be released on the 31st. There are four popular movies, one per week, and there is also "Wonderful" in the middle.
"Think of It" is a movie that cannot be ignored.
After all, Dapeng's previous "Pancake Man" has sold over one billion yuan, and the series of short films produced by the creators of "Wan Wan Wan Wan Fang" are not much worse than Dapeng's previous "Diaosi Man", and they also have a huge popularity on the Internet.
Reputation.
Taking a lesson from the past, the box office estimate of "Unexpectedly" is expected to skyrocket like a rocket.
Moreover, this is the theme of Journey to the West. The little-known animated film "Journey to the West: Return of the Great Sage" released in the summer also sold nearly 1 billion.
Although it cannot be compared with these four movies, it is still the backbone of the Lunar New Year movie.
The competition is very strong, and "Beautiful Heart" has been released again, so the Huang brothers can't help but feel nervous.
As the face of "Lao Pao'er" and the main target of publicity, Ma Xiaogang was very disdainful of the aggressive attitude of "Love in the Heart".
"I don't know what the air is about!"
He also learned from Huang Zhongjun that Li Qian's script was indeed killed, but he was happy for several days.
As for Ning Hao's "Beautiful Heart", Ma Xiaogang is not very shy. Although "Detective Chinatown" was a big hit, Li Qian's name is still in the screenwriter column. Although it is not ranked first, at least the concept of this film is
It should have been given by Li Qian.
Looking at Ning Hao's previous films, the Crazy Series was okay, but the standard of "Golden Heist" dropped sharply. Even if Xu Zheng and Huang Bo were brought in, Ma Xiaogang was very good at "Old Paoer" starring himself.
confidence.
The great director Ma Xiaogang personally stars in the film, which is a big gimmick in itself.
The whole process of the movie is controlled by myself, and the quality is impeccable. There is also Wu Yifan, a fan with hundreds of millions of fans, who can vote for each person.
That "I Am a Witness" had a box office of 200 million only because of the little hottie who returned to China with Wu Yifan.
Besides, there are two little fresh meats, "Lao Pao'er", and three other little dolls that are relatively popular on the Internet. They have many fans. I heard that there are some mothers who are fans.
However, time passed day by day. When Ning Hao and his trio held the first round of audience meeting in Beijing on November 10th, facing the media and the audience, Xu Zheng said, "The three of us are the best in the mainland."
After "Comedy Group", a reporter asked about Ma Xiaogang, the master of comedy.
Xu Zheng said that he is a little worse than Ma Xiaogang as a director and actor, but when the three of them are put together, it's hard to say.
Xu Zheng is still very modest. Otherwise, according to what he told Li Qian, he, a latecomer in the field of comedy, would have beaten Ma Xiaogang to death on the beach.
These modest words turned sour in the media's writing, and they began to stir up trouble.
Ning Hao has just experienced the big hit of "Detective Chinatown", and "囧" starring Xu Zheng and Huang Bo has also become a big hit. These two comedies between the three of them have directly established their position in the hearts of the audience.
At least in the field of comedy, directors Ning Hao and Xu Zheng are no worse than Ma Xiaogang in the hearts of the audience, especially Ma Xiaogang's last comedy "Private Customization" which received a lot of criticism.
Reporters are stirring up trouble, and fans are echoing, saying that Ning Hao and Xu Zheng's comedies are already better than Ma Xiaogang's.
Ma Xiaogang saw these words and didn't pay attention at first, minding his own business in the creation of his new film "I'm Not Pan Jinlian".
However, online movie fans came to criticize him more and more to praise Ning Hao and Xu Zheng, and the comments became more and more unpleasant. Ma Xiaogang couldn't help it anymore.
When he was on the show with the crew, Ma Xiaogang said something directly.
"Comedy is not that simple. I advise young people to take care of themselves and spend more time studying."
