Chapter 466: It's Difficult to Make Movies

On the afternoon of April 8, Lin Jianguo returned from Xiangjiang. He brought something not very good from Huanya. Huanya was not very interested in Yunshi's plan to create a series of movies for Yuan Xiaotian.

For Huanya, what they only value Du Xinghe Yunshi's talent and attainments in music, not movies.

Yuan Xiaotian is a new star that Huanya Entertainment is going to focus on cultivating. They don’t want to take Yuan Xiaotian some movies that may destroy Yuan Xiaotian’s image, especially movies created by novices like Du Xinghe. They really can’t see what the future is.

Even if there is investment in Yun World to shoot, Huanya still has to consider what negative impact these movies will have on Yuan Xiaotian. After all, Yuan Xiaotian is not the kind of little star who can't get a movie if there is a movie. Huanya has already formulated a careful development plan for Yuan Xiaotian, and Yuan Xiaotian will not have to worry about not having a movie.

However, Huanya didn't say anything. The final reply they brought to Lin Jianguo was that if Yunshi wanted to get involved in the film industry and was willing to invest in making movies, Huanya Entertainment was willing to cooperate with Yunshi. But first look at what kind of movie Yunshi wanted to make, Huanya then helped Yunshi match a professional team and choose actors to star in it.

Lin Jianguo felt that this result was acceptable. After all, making movies is not a joke. He has already inquired about the market in Xiangjiang. Any decent movie, the highlights produced by a company of Huanya, will cost more than 100 million yuan, and the most time will cost tens of millions of yuan.

While chatting with Huanya’s friends, Lin Jianguo bragged that Yunshi could spend so much money to make movies. But in fact, he knew very well that Yunshi is now difficult to spend 20 million and can’t make movies.

Huanya is not very fond of Du Xinghe's plan to make a series of movies, but Lin Jianguo felt relieved. Yunshi had just gotten on the right track with a few excellent records. If he entered the more competitive film industry now, there would be a great risk of being killed without leaving any films. So when Lin Jianguo came back, the first thing Lin Jianguo did to look for Du Xinghe was to advise Du Xinghe not to make a rash move in the film market.

Lin Jianguo told Du Xinghe about some of the things and risks in the film industry that he learned from Xiangjiang, and advised Du Xinghe to take the idea of ​​making movies first and wait for the cloud world to accumulate rich costs and use over 100 million yuan of funds at will. It is not too late for them to enter the film industry.

A few days before Lin Jianguo came back, when Du Xinghe went to Fang Yajun's house to discuss the new album with Fang Yajun, he also talked with Fang Yajun about making movies.

Fang Yajun has studied in the film industry before, so she knows more about all aspects of filming than Du Xinghe. After chatting with semi-professionals like Fang Yajun, she realized that it is indeed not easy to arrange the stories in her mind into a real movie.

Making movies is much more complicated than music. Editing, directing, acting, shooting, recording, beauty, costumes, craftsmanship, Taoism... including the special effects, flushing, promotion, distribution, is much more complicated than simply making a record.

Although the screenwriter is the most difficult thing in making a movie, he is competent, as well as movie music, which is his profession, but the remaining links and cooperation between multiple departments are not within his ability.

Although he had finished shots and pictures in his mind, he could draw these shots in a hurry, but how to take these shots is actually not as simple as he thought.

Film and television pictures are not a simple copy of reality, but an artistic symbol. They are both records of reality and transcendence of reality, and are reality that is given meaning. This purposeful reconstruction is the understanding, understanding and interpretation of reality made by film and television producers or creators based on their own understanding of the world, life, and art.

Just like making music, you need to use notes to convey various emotions. When making movies, the director also needs to use his lens language to describe many connotations.

Even if Du Xinghe had these shots in his mind, if he didn't understand why the director took them like this, it would be difficult for him to copy these shots well. After all, this is not his profession, and even he cannot even recognize the meaning of the shots, such as the distance, long view (large long view), panoramic view, medium view, close-up, and close-up (large close-up).

The movement of the lens - push, pull, shake, move, and follow; the angle of the lens - look straight, look down, look up; the director's composition, type, and principle of the picture composition; the quality of the picture exposure, whether it is soft or hard light; the direction of the exposure is front light, side light, back light, bottom light or top light; whether the light intensity is strong or weak, the light tone is super high or low-key; the matching relationship between the proportions, positions and areas of different colors in the picture creates different visual feelings such as thick and light, light and dark, warm and cold, rich and simple; and the color effect created by the combination and changes of colors in the picture by the inner connection between color and people's emotions; the way in which each part of the color processing is dominated by the overall design of the tone... and so on, these are not professionals, and they cannot interpret and copy them perfectly like music.

It’s okay to say that pure commercial films do not pay much attention to artistry, but movies with real connotations need to understand more things. Even if they have watched movies, it is difficult to recreate things in the movies. After all, there are many factors in the movies, such as what actors act, how to act, and what kind of directors they need to teach and tutor. These are not something he can do.

Fang Yajun was frightened by the complexity of movies that were several times more than music, so she did not cross-border movies. Now that Du Xinghe wants to make movies, she taught her some of the difficulties she had in organizing filming to Du Xinghe from the perspective of a musician.

Du Xinghe also had a headache after hearing this. Only then did he realize that copy movies are much more complicated than copy music and novels, which is really not something they are not able to handle.

However, he already has a movie in his mind, which is still his greatest advantage over and ahead of ordinary people. In the film industry, the most talented directors recognized as the most talented director can usually organize the shots and stories to be shot in their minds before the start of filming. Before the start of filming, they have the movie that should be filmed after the final shot. This is also a kind of highest level for film directors. Even if ordinary people have received the most professional director education and training, it is difficult for them to do this. Unless they are the top genius directors, they have this ability.

Fang Yajun has read Du Xinghe's storyboard script. Although the notes on those shots are not so professional, and do not indicate some scheduling and more professional auxiliary prompts during shooting, they can arrange a story into a well-divided shot, and even the length of the shot time is clearly something that only a director with the highest level and talent can do. So she is very optimistic about Du Xinghe's filming movies. She believes that Du Xinghe's talent in the film field should be much the same as his writing songs.

After Du Xinghe realized how difficult it was to make a movie, he didn't want to shoot at this stage because he realized that it was a time-consuming and energy-consuming thing, so he left it to more professionals to do it. He only provided script creativity, and what he could do depends on the skills of a more professional director.

Originally, he wanted to go to the set to shoot with the director, looking at the camera to help the director correct some details, in order to capture the feelings in his mind. But after hearing some of the professional terms Fang Yajun said, his head became big. In front of professionals in the film industry, even in front of semi-professional Fang Yajun, he was like a naughty man and didn't know anything. How could he go to the set to give suggestions and opinions to the real director? I guess someone would be fooled by a professional vocabulary, just like a non-professional musician giving him advice. He would definitely be disdainful from the bottom of his heart, so he should not humiliate himself.

Huanya was not very interested in his proposal to make a series of movies, and Du Xinghe had to give up. As for the Cantonese version of "Little Bird", Lin Jianguo's friends were quite helpful and were still willing to do it. Even if Du Xinghe did not make an album for Yuan Xiaotian, they were willing to help with it. After all, this is a profitable thing. The Mandarin version of "Little Bird" created history gave Huanya Music confidence. They firmly believed that making the Cantonese version of "Little Bird" could make a fortune.

In the absence of recording the new album "Madness for Love", Xu Nuo recorded the Cantonese version of "Little Bird" - "Daydream" written by Fang Yajun. When he was in school, Huayi strengthened Cantonese practice for students in the music department and the performance department, so the young students sang Cantonese songs very accurately and basically did not use corrections. Just reorganize their feelings and it would be fine.

Roland stayed with Wang De and Yan Ruisha for a week, and thought for a week. Duan Xiaoxuan persuaded him for a week, and finally compromised with Yun World. She decided to sign a new contract with Yun World, form the "King of Yan Luo" group with Yan Ruisha and Wang De, and fight in the music industry again.

The biggest reason why Roland compromised in the end was that she saw Yan Ruisha and Wang De study and training hard every day. In them, she saw something called "hope", which were not found in her two teammates.

In the eyes of Wang De and Yan Ruisha, she saw a kind of confidence to win. This confidence inspired her and encouraged her! Together with the two girls, she wanted to make a name for the mixed-race boys! Conquer a big world! (To be continued...)
