Chapter 129 Since then, I have left a literary film ptsd
The premiere of "Miguo" arrived as scheduled.
What the organizer gave Ye Qin and the others was only a small screening hall that could accommodate dozens of people.
Obviously, not very optimistic.
"There are not many people."
As the film was approaching, Ye Qin scanned around. There were only a dozen or so people seated, not even the first two rows.
"This is the result of recommending everywhere before and after a few days of running, otherwise no one would know."
Zhang Yibai said helplessly: "Those broken posters are for hammers!"
"Director Zhang, it's fine for someone to watch."
Ye Qin comforted him, turned his head frequently, and looked towards the door.
Zhang Yibai shook his head and sighed, as if acquiescing to this embarrassing situation. "Yeah, someone makes money by looking at it, at least it's not self-admiration."
Ye Qin is helpless, Zhang Yibai is actually worse than Jia Zhangke in the 90s.
At that time, the film system under the planning system of theaters, film studios, etc. collapsed, and caught up with the TV frenzy. "Longing", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Journey to the West", and a large number of TVB Hong Kong dramas, "Shanghai Beach", etc., some of them evaded censorship , and some were forced to leave overseas.
Although the box office is not good and the perspective is wrong, but in the era when Western awards are proud of around the millennium, it is tantamount to going overseas to get a golden body.
Like him, he doesn't touch anything, no money, no reputation, no prizes.
Suddenly, there was movement at the door.
Ye Qin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the voice, and she really came to join in the show.
Although Li Meiqi is not ranked high in the United States, he is at least a second-rate and third-rate star, but he still has a certain base of fans.
He stood up from the back row, "Quick, come to the door to meet him."
"Who?" Zhang Yibai asked confusedly.
"maggie q."
Zhang Yibai blushed with excitement and said, "Qin Zi, you have contacts in Hollywood, why didn't you tell me earlier!"
Ye Qin rolled his eyes, and whispered: "What are you thinking, I met by chance, and it took me a lot of effort to get into sleep!"
"Pajamas?" Zhang Yibai's eyes widened.
"A slip of the tongue is persuasion."
Ye Qin's heart skipped a beat, and he hastily explained that it was a moment of quick talk, mother, after watching "Donkey Gets Water" the catchphrase developed, he always referred to "persuasion" as "sleeping clothes".
Zhang Yibai's face was full of emotion, "I understand, I understand, no wonder you are still sleeping every morning, recharging your energy. Qin Zi, if this movie wins, you will get half of the military medal."
Ye Qin: 0.0.
Look at my broken mouth!
………………
Because of the presence of celebrities, the effect was outstanding, and the deserted screening room finally got three-fifths of the pass line.
In the front row, film critics, reporters, and even filmmakers.
"Your director is weird."
Li Meiqi didn't come to rub the red carpet, but she also wore a bold and sexy black V-shaped dress with long hair and a shawl.
Sitting next to Ye Qin, he didn't care about the two meats on his chest being exposed in his sight, and whispered in his ear, "keep looking at us."
"Cough cough."
Ye Qin cleared his throat, and gave Zhang Yibai a look, only to see Zhang Yibai turned his head away knowingly, and chatted with the film dealer on the other side.
"He was just surprised that Maggie Q would be there. In fact, I was also surprised. I just mentioned it, but I didn't expect it. Thank you big star for the honor."
"I'm only a small role in Hollywood, but I haven't thanked you for the news yet."
Li Meiqi smiled and said, "My agent said that the producer and director of "Nikita" had seen my performance in "The Naked Agent" and felt that it fits the image of the female lead very well, and the audition success rate is very high."
"Yes, I haven't asked you yet, how did you know the news?"
There was heat coming from his ears, and Ye Qin was shocked: "The show has started."
As soon as the voice fell, the lights dimmed and the screen turned on.
It is estimated that only Zhang Yibai had seen the finished film of "Mi Fruit", Ye Qin calmed down and focused on the film.
At the beginning, Xiao Chuan, played by Ye Qin, and Duan Bowen, who played Huang Mao in "The Murder Chaser", appeared from the Fly Restaurant.
At the beginning, he was full of enthusiasm, and for the first time, he screened a movie starring himself at a foreign film festival.
However, a surge of enthusiasm was instantly quenched by cold water.
After 10 minutes of the screening, he was still in the ice cellar, and immediately understood why the distributor gave up the treatment, because there was really no cure.
A movie edited so that even the lead actor couldn't understand it.
Xiao Yi played by God E, why would someone come to collect debts, why all the 2 yuan given to Mrs. Jiang was in coins, he drove a high-end car, but a Hong Kong businessman!
Similar questions emerge one after another, like strands of messy hair curled into a ball of puzzles inexplicably.
A suspense movie, pay attention to foreshadowing, foreshadowing, development, turning point, outbreak, and ending.
However, seeing now, he only feels that the whole movie is a fragmented picture, full of storylines.
Each paragraph is either broken, without end, or the middle process is vague.
Ye Qin felt scalp numb when watching "The Invisible Guest", nm, and also felt scalp numb when watching "Miguo".
What did you shoot!
"Director Zhang, I don't seem to understand."
Zhang Yibai adjusted his glasses and showed a mysterious smile:
"Before shooting My Shore, I watched a drama in Yanjing, Jean-Claude Carrière's "Memorandum". I think the narrative can be taken to the extreme."
"It can make the film more uncertain, everything is impossible, and everything is possible."
Hey, if you ask me that, I can't solve any mysteries.
Ye Qin curled his lips, he really couldn't stand what these six generations of art directors thought, maybe because of his level, he was only suitable for making commercial films at present.
Humanistic cultivation can't keep up, especially the "Memorandum" that made Cary.
"Then Xiao Chuan's father is dead or not?" Ye Qin suddenly suspected that he didn't understand the script.
"To die, or not to die, is a mystery."
Zhang Yibai said politely, "I don't know what happened next. At the end, I deconstructed everything before."
Ye Qin sighed, he didn't have any hopes for this movie at all.
As long as your acting skills are worthy of the role, you will be successful!
The scene was extremely dull, none of the foreigners made a sound, and there was only the sound of the screen in the auditorium:
"And Dazhi, for Qingqing?"
Ye Qin kept silent, sitting quietly on the toilet seat in the bathroom.
Leaning on crutches, Mo Wenwei reached out to take off his diving mask, but Ye Qin turned his head away childishly, as if angry.
"I don't like men fighting over women."
"Are you really young? Didn't your father teach you to chase girls?"
The self in the picture is silent, his fists are slightly clenched, and the accumulated flames are getting stronger and stronger, almost filling his chest, and his chest is heaving up and down.
"What's their relationship?" Li Meiqi blinked. "Siblings?"
"No, they seem to be siblings, but in fact, they are father's lover and father's son."
The reason why "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is popular in the West is that it is wrapped in the skin of martial arts, and the core is the intricate relationship between Li Mubai, Yu Xiulian, and Yu Jiaolong.
Li An understands Western aesthetics very well, and loves all kinds of "triangular" deformity and hazy relationships between men and women, and "Brokeback Mountain" is the smoothest.
"So it's this relationship!"
Li Meiqi admired: "The next thing should be the hero and heroine's emotional explosion, PG rating, or PG-13?"
Hehe, grade G, clear soup with little water.
Ye Qin didn't know what to say, and a Cantonese sentence suddenly came out of Zhang Yibai's mouth: "The fusion of spirit and flesh, the flesh is only inferior, it must be consciously ambiguous, impulsive, and wild."
"..."
Ye Qin raised his forehead, I don't read much, so don't lie to me!
Don't talk about the deconstruction of families in modern society, foreigners can't understand the "high aesthetics", people are leaving almost all the time, halfway through the broadcast, the audience is almost gone, only the reporters and film critics who were deceived by Li Meiqi are left insisting .
What was surprising was that Zhang Yibai had a heated chat with a film producer from Northern Europe.
Chirping, I vaguely heard a string of numbers.
It seems that he has to prove that the films he made can sell more.
Talking about business before a literary film is very magical and realistic. Ye Qin seems to have a better understanding of literary films.
When Ye Qin on the screen got his nose bruised and his face swollen because of fighting with Lu's buddies, Mo Wenwei was gently compressing his face with a hot towel by Mo Wenwei.
Every time the hot towel touched the bruised and swollen lips, the audience's heartstrings were slightly plucked.
The eyes of the film critics are angry, and finally the main event is coming, and Xiao Chuan, who has been wronged, is also angry in his eyes.
Finally, full of anger broke out, he stood up suddenly, and roughly pushed her to the ground.
"Ah, my legs!"
Ye Qin was like a wild animal that had just grown up and just came out of the cage, with his hands straight on the left and right sides of Mo Wenwei, the ground thumped!
There was nowhere to escape when she was trapped, her eyes flashed aggressively, and the ambiguous atmosphere rose rapidly.
The eyes of the movie fans flickered, waiting for the next step between Xiao Chuan and Sudan, they froze for 4 seconds, and then everything on the screen was gone.
"Shh!"
The expected value is full, and this is the result?
Accompanied by bursts of boos, the rest of the audience left one after another, and one or two film critics couldn't hold back their poisonous points and left midway.
Ye Qin felt chilled in his heart, this is his real debut work, he deserves a sense of accomplishment, like being pregnant in October, hoping to have a healthy baby, no one expected, the doctor who delivered the baby did all kinds of tricks— —
Disabled?
…………
Sure enough, Ye Qin's first male lead movie ended in a dismal situation.
It's lonely to participate in the awards ceremony. Among the 20 films shortlisted for "World Feature Films", "Miguo" has the lowest score.
There is no best newcomer award in the selection awards. Ye Qin's greatest achievement these days is actually getting to know Li Meiqi.
Besides, in a feast full of movie people, almost no one paid attention to it, not even a Neon man's face could be found.
It seemed so out of place.
Zhang Yibai, on the other hand, was very happy. He drank to his heart's content at the closing banquet and at the palm tree reception.
Because "Music Fruit" was sold at a higher price than at the Xiangjiang International Film Festival, Xinghao Film Company took the initiative to contact him.
"Qin Zi, I want to thank you." His drunken eyes were dim, with hot tears in his eyes. "Without the reinforcements you invited, my movie would not be what it is now!"
"Director Zhang, don't say that."
Ye Qin really wanted to vent his anger on Zhang Yibai, for his first trip to North America to win awards, he was inexplicably aggrieved.
But seeing his pain in the hotel in the past few days, if he looked deformed and crooked like a crying child, he would simply cry "the child is gone".
"Qin Zi, if there is a next movie, I will definitely ask you to cooperate."
Ye Qin comforted: "Director Zhang, there will be a chance."
My heart is full of slander, but I can pull it down, after this experience, I now have a shadow on literary films!
For a layman like me, let's make commercial films.
Zhang Yibai hiccupped and said, "I figured it out. Movies are not as simple as directing, but also operate. I plan to study an EMBA."
"What emba?" Ye Qin was stunned.
"I made a movie in one or two years and it was gone. It's no good to give so much hard work to a group of people who are completely irresponsible and don't understand your work!"
Zhang Yibai's eyes were full of anger: "The fate of my work must be in my own hands."
"My movie is marketed by myself!"
On this day, Ye Qin witnessed with his own eyes the fall of a sixth generation whose heart was devoted to literature and art, and the rise of a sixth generation whose heart was devoted to capital.
Since then, a marketing dog has devoured the world in the film industry.
This led to the theme song of the same name of "The Year in a Hurry" sung by Wang Hao, which hit the social network. The "cold start method of the theme song" was once regarded as a classic by marketing companies in the industry.
Indigenously concocted the routines of Xiangjiang's supervision, and taught himself to be a supervisor for young directors such as Xu Cainv in the Beijing circle.
After the marketing of Xu Cainv's "Du Lala's Promotion", the box office exceeded 10 million, and Liu Ruoying's "Later Us" even exceeded [-] billion.
As for Ye Qin, whenever it appears in the future, "Ye Qin the producer", "Zhang Yibai the producer", and "Ye Qin the lead actor", the trinity, the capital dad is like a dog, waving money and begging for investment shares.
Zhang Yibai thus secured the top spot as "Film Product Marketing Manager".
