Chapter 3 The first time
"A new direction for comedy films?"
Xiaobai is really not pretending, he really doesn't know that he has such a title.
Generally, I am so awesome and directional!
"It's like this. If we look at the development of domestic comedy, the 1920s and 1930s were the earliest comedy... For example, "Labor Love"..."
“(′??_??)”
Xiaobai was a little confused. What are you talking about?
In the 1920s and 1930s?
Brother, that seems to be the time when Chaplin was popular all over the world?
Also, I haven't heard of "Labor Love"...
“…It can be seen that as early as the early stages of Chinese films, comedy has become a mainstream genre…”
The reporter seemed to want to show off his profound knowledge and seemed to trace the development history of domestic comedy. Xiaobai couldn't help it: "No, can we just say something?"
"Uh, many people think that your comedy first has jokes, and then adds the plot to the jokes..."
Damn, who said it?
It’s obvious that there is a main plot first, and then stuff it into it!
This is how all movies do it!
Especially comedy, "Lost in Thailand", "The Road to Flowers", and when Xiaobai was "writing" the script "Knocking on the Door of Heaven", many of the baggages were found online.
“…It is thanks to the era of fragmented reading that your comedy is accepted, and many people think this direction of the comedy development…”
"Stop!"
Xiaobai finally said his heart: "I don't study much academic aspects, especially comedy. I always think that a good movie must first be a good story. As for jokes, baggages, etc., it's all a story!"
"Actually, the script structure of most Hollywood blockbusters is very simple, they are all old jokes about superheroes saving the world. Why do the audience like to watch it? I don't mention the special effects, I think it's because the director can tell stories!"
"They are indeed better than us! The movie "Inception" directed by Nolan, the movie follows layers of dreams, and the storyline is extremely complex, but Nolan's shooting is orderly and progresses step by step, from shallow to deep, so that most viewers can understand what's going on. Even if they don't understand, they will understand after watching the film review."
"Compare, our great director made a work, which was obviously a very simple story of a liar. He had to make it extremely complicated, with a messy narrative and wild imagination. He was so excited that most viewers were confused after watching it. Even after reading the film reviews, they found that the statements and explanations of each film review were different, and they were even more confused. The investment of 300 million yuan was just for self-interest? Such a thing could only happen in our Chinese film circle!"
“…Are you talking about “One Step Away”?”
"…You said it, I didn't say it!"
...
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Sun Xiaoxiao had already arrived in Xihong City.
To be precise, it is the southern suburbs of Xihong City.
This is the filming site of "Wulin Waizai", and it is also a film and television base built by the Xihong Municipal Government in cooperation with Chen's real estate...
It covers a lot of land, but unfortunately, there is only one building, just a broken mountain, and several things that can be called ancient buildings were built on it.
To be honest, Sun Xiaoxiao doesn’t understand why she didn’t shoot in Hengguo.
As far as she knows, "Wulin Waizhuan" is not short of money.
Yongsheng directly allocated 40 million yuan, Xihong TV Station also wanted to invest, and Bai Xiaofei Studio also invested 10 million yuan...
Anyway, according to the words of the director-general Chen Baolian, "Can you spend so much money?"
Well, the crew is very rich!
But Yongsheng wanted to play the entire film and television base, and "Wulin Waichuan" as a drama that he invested in, of course he had to act as the first shot.
"Wulin Waizai" will officially start filming on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and the filming of his first work is about to begin. Sun Xiaoxiao is a little excited!
...
Question, what is the daily life of popular artists?
Work, work non-stop!
The kind that can't rest during the New Year.
After five days, I received two exclusive interviews and participated in five social events. I still have to participate in the same kind of people. The other party is the financial supporter!
After finally getting enough time to get some rest, Xiaobai is ready to sleep for a long time!
After ten o'clock, I was still lying on the bed...
"Ding Dong..."
Someone rang the doorbell!
Xiaobai got up from the bed a little annoyed.
"Who?"
When the door opened, it was Sun Xiaoxiao, and the girl was still holding something in her hand!
"Happy New Year, Boss!"
The girl looked sunny and didn't mean to disturb the other person at all...
"…Please come in, sit around, I'll wash my face..."
After yawning, Xiaobai walked into the bathroom barefoot.
"oh!"
The girl nodded and saw Bai Xiaofei reaching the second floor. She began to look at the layout of the house.
That's right. Bai Lang is busier than his son these days, and it's normal for him to not go home at night. Now, there is only Xiaobai in the huge room. By the way, there is also the white Xiaobai.
It seemed that he noticed that a new sister was coming, and the little white dog ran over with a sob.
"Yo, what a cute dog!"
Only then did Xiaoxiao notice the cute creature in the room, picked up Xiaobai, and started the exchange between the two species...
After brushing his teeth, Bai Xiaofei washed his face. When he came out, he happened to see Xiaobai put his front paws on the softness of Miss Sun's chest. The dog's face actually showed an expression of enjoyment...
Damn, didn’t you say that you would not be allowed to become a spirit after the founding of the country?
"boss…"
"Um,"
Nodded, saying hello, opened the refrigerator, wanted to find something to eat, but had no appetite...
There is no desire to do it yourself...
Suddenly, he thought that he was not the only one in the room, so he turned his head and said, "Xiaoxiao?"
"What's wrong?"
"Do you know how to cook?"
“…I only know how to put instant noodles…”
Sun Xiaoxiao regretted it a little, why didn’t you learn more skills at the beginning?
"It just so happens that I like instant noodles, remember to add two eggs..."
...
Five minutes, the instant noodles will be ready.
"…The taste is good, but the cooking time is a little longer! Pay more attention next time!"
Xiaobai finished eating quickly and gave a brief comment...
“…Director, do you live alone?”
Sun Xiaoxiao ignored him and asked another question instead.
"I'm basically the only one, what's wrong?"
"Don't you have a girlfriend?"
"She...why are you asking this?"
Xiaobai asked back with a little curious question.
"Care for it!"
I don’t know what the girl was thinking. Anyway, seeing Bai Xiaofei hesitate a little, her expression became much more cheerful.
"This is the dried fruit I brought from my home. I can't buy it on the market. Do you want to try it?"
"How can your family make this?"
Xiaoxiao opened the packaging box and a sweet and sour smell plunged into her nostrils. It should be persimmon cakes, dried apricots, black dates, and something mixed together.
