Chapter 1504: Shooting Starts
"This story is good!" The political commissar sighed after reading it, no doubt he was moved by "The Garland Under the Mountain", his eyes were a little red, "tell me where you collected these materials of?"
Shen Long talked about what he saw and heard on the front line, and talked about his exchanges with Hao Shuwen, Chen Can, and the heads of the military region after he came back, "It can be said that except for the part of the red flag that will not fall, everything else can be done. Find archetypes in reality."
"It's nothing like that. Literary works, it's not shameful to completely copy reality. With such a modification, the whole theme has been sublimated and can give people a stronger impact." The political commissar is not an amateur, and has no objection to such a treatment.
"I'll take a closer look and discuss it with the group leader. If there's no problem, I'll send it to my friends in the film studio tomorrow. Your manuscript is better than the ones they received before!" Political commissar received Starting from the manuscript, he said that he also read a little script received by the film studio.
Those scripts are also based on real events, but there are more or less problems with the flatness and simplification of the characters, which are far less flesh and blood than Shen Long's work.
Of course, good literary works don’t have to worry about being buried. Shortly after the political commissar delivered the manuscript, he immediately received a call from Shanghai, “Old Yu, you’ve helped us a lot this time. He is full of praise, he plans to put down the work at hand and make this movie first."
"The factory is also very supportive of Director Xie's decision. Whether it is the machine or the personnel, we must use the best. We must make this movie in the shortest possible time and show it to audiences across the country! By the way, the original author Liu Feng Is it convenient for comrades to come to Magic? If it’s troublesome, Director Xie can go there, just to take a look at the front line, experience the atmosphere of the battlefield, choose a suitable shooting location, and communicate with the local garrison to work together.”
"It would be great if Director Xie could come over. After all, Liu Feng still has tasks on his shoulders." The political commissar responded with a smile. Now Shen Long has the final say in the art troupe, and now the art troupe is shouldering the responsibility of going to the front line to offer condolences Given the heavy responsibility of acting, it was inappropriate for him to leave Quemodu suddenly.
After a few days, Director Xie hurried over, got off the train and went straight to the art troupe, and found Shen Long. Director Xie is a famous director in China, and the whole art troupe was alarmed when he came. Everyone asked again, it turned out that It was Liu Feng who wrote a movie that Director Xie took a fancy to and planned to make a movie.
"I knew it must be head Liu who made a name for it. Hey, do you think we have a chance to play a role in a movie?" Hao Shuwen began to look forward to it, that girl didn't want to become a star like Chen Chong.
"Suizi, Suizi, you have been helping the group leader sort out the materials these days. You must know what he wrote, right? Tell me, do we have a chance?" Hao Shuwen asked Suizi Xiao,
Lin Dingding next to her also pricked up her ears, she naturally wanted to go to the movies too.
"It's really possible. The head of the troupe wrote about our art troupe going to the front line to show condolences, and the scene where the parentheses went to the front line. If the director needs it, it is definitely more suitable for us to act directly than other people." Xiao Suizi thought want to say.
This is also one of the revisions made by Shen Long. Since he belongs to an art troupe, it is inappropriate that there is no art troupe there at all, and they have indeed contributed to this war. As for the issue of brackets, it is natural to want to encourage The spirit of self-improvement of more disabled soldiers also made the common people understand their difficulties.
When Hao Shuwen and the others were excited, Shen Long was chatting happily with Director Xie in the office, "Director Xie, I grew up watching your movies, we all like "Red Detachment of Women" and "Women's Basketball No. 5" look."
I heard that Director Xie temporarily stopped other plans and started preparing for this movie, but I don’t know which one he stopped. According to the time, "Ah, Cradle" should have been filmed, and the next step is probably "Legend of Tianyun Mountain" and "Wrangler", right? Zhu Shimao's thick eyebrows and big eyes are the protagonist at first glance!
"Thank you Comrade Xiao Liu for providing us with a good story. I wanted to make this story as soon as I saw it, so I came here to discuss with you how to make a movie." For more than twenty years, calling Shen Long Xiao Liu is completely fine.
"It's really great that you are willing to direct this movie. If we need our cooperation, we will do our best to do it." Shen Long is very assured of Director Xie's ability.
Director Xie is an outstanding director of this generation. He is able to tell a complete story from beginning to end quite freely, is good at grasping the psychology of the audience, and pursues a popular narrative; Movies are not only deeply loved by audiences, but also have high artistic value.
The past few years from now are the peak period of his creation, and he has created a large number of artistic masterpieces such as "Legend of Tianyun Mountain" and "Furong Town", and of course "Wreath under the Mountain". It was filmed, but Shen Long took out this work a few years in advance.
If Xie Jin could keep making movies, Chinese movies might not have experienced the cold winter of the 1990s. Unfortunately, he was scolded by Zhu Dake in an article in 1986, which caused Chinese movies to take a detour. The next generation of directors Ignoring the preferences of ordinary people and blindly shooting high-profile literary and artistic works almost killed Chinese movies completely.
"First of all, we have to adapt it into a script, and then find a suitable shooting location, as well as the cooperation of the local garrison..." Director Xie was not polite, and directly stated the problems we are facing now.
"Actually, I'm already revising the script. Please take a look at the revised part first." I'm also familiar with this job. I've written scripts for Brother Kai and Lao Mouzi, and I've also written for Hepburn. There is no problem at all. have.
"As for other problems, I can also solve them. I have been to many places when I was on the front line, and I can help you find a suitable shooting location; our army will definitely welcome you to shoot such a movie, and we will definitely cooperate with you as much as possible." Shen Long also agrees with this point The superior leaders have communicated, and they all agree.
Whether they need people or weapons, they are willing to cooperate as long as it does not affect the battle, and they can even call in veterans who are resting to help, so that they can show their energy.
Director Xie stayed here with Shen Long for a while, made all the preparations, and then the filming officially started.
