~: Five hundred and ninety-six - "Don't remember this paragraph!"

"Director Greenberg, what's the difference between the Hollywood film model and ours, can you talk about that?"

After the old-fashioned boy with small eyes sat down, Wayne casually tapped a boy in the front row who raised his hand again. This question is relatively normal, but this kind of relatively normal question is precisely the hardest to answer. It was wrong, and it was very likely that all the goodwill he had gained today would disappear.

There were not only students and teachers in the school, but also those media reporters and photographers. Everyone knows that every word he said here today will be reported in the plenary session without a word.

It's okay to talk about your views on the movie, even if it causes some controversy, it is at most a discussion about movie cognition. But serious topics can easily lead to some unnecessary misunderstandings.

Therefore, Wayne thought about it for a while, and then said, "Although I am very interested in the culture here, I don't know much about the film industry, so I can only talk about Hollywood, there are some in the middle. What is the difference, you can compare yourself."

"First of all, it's the production model of the movie." He first automatically blocked sensitive aspects, saying that he only talked about the Hollywood model. "In Hollywood, a movie may come from an idea of ​​the producer, or it may come from the hard work of the screenwriters for several years, but in the past two years, more of it comes from literary works, comics and other adaptations.

No matter what the script is for, a producer is usually needed. He will do in-depth market research in the early stage based on the script or idea in hand, and then make a report with detailed data, high feasibility, and Project plan with strict market planning. The producer will hold the project proposal, and finally go to the film company to pull investment.

If the project proposal is approved by the film company, the producer and the film company will jointly set up a production office. There will be a production manager in this office, and he will recruit with the investment of the film company. The people who work behind the scenes, of course, this position will most likely be filled by the producer who provides the project.

Behind the scenes is the recruitment of behind-the-scenes workers, those who are directors, cameramen, crew coordinators, etc. Then, under the leadership of the producer, these people will start the preparatory work before filming, including recruiting actors, making movie props, special effects, building photo studio.

When this preparatory work is ready, it will be the director's turn to organize the shooting. It should be noted that in most Hollywood movie modes, although the director presides over the shooting of the footage, he does not have the right to decide which footage to use. It's going to involve post-work.

Usually the post-production work is carried out under the auspices of the producer, and most directors will also be excluded from this work, because the project is initiated by the producer, who is also the one who knows the effect of the finished film and the market demand best. . When the post-production work is finished, it is the distribution of the film, such as entering the theater, or directly releasing the videotape. "

What Wayne said is common sense, and some people in the auditorium have heard of it more or less, but although the exchanges between the two sides of the Pacific are relatively frequent, these common sense things are still very unfamiliar to most students.

The most surprising thing for most people here is undoubtedly the restriction on the director's rights by the crew, and what is even more unexpected is that the director will be excluded from the post-production work.

"Okay, what I'm talking about is just the most common and most basic process for the birth of a film." After Wayne briefly described the entire process, the expression on his face began to become serious, and he looked at the audience and looked at himself. With countless eyes, he stretched out a finger and said:

"It's good for everyone to have a basic concept of this process. Except for those very few independent films, most of Hollywood's films were born based on this model. As for the differences you want to know, I can only Give some data for your reference.

First, there is the issue of project funding. I can't remember the exact figures, but for the movies released this summer, the average production cost of each Hollywood movie is definitely more than 60 million US dollars. The high production cost also puts a lot of pressure on the film company, so they will be cautious and cautious about every film that may be officially shot. "

Speaking of this, he ignored the surprised open-mouthed people under the stage, and extended a finger to the audience again. "Second, the technology issue, which I prefer to call the film industry."

When the reporters started talking about this topic from Wayne, they all took out their pencils and began to write frantically in the notebook. These things are very valuable to them. This nation is never afraid of falling behind, and they need it. Clearly see the gap between the two sides, and then use strong execution to catch up with each other.

"If I want to make a sci-fi movie, the first year in my mind is to contact Industrial Light and Magic, which is the top special effects company in the industry. Basically, as long as the crew pays the money, they can create it for you. A dream world, and this is part of the so-called film industry.

Of course, the film industry involves all aspects, but no matter which aspect, there are rigorous technology behind it to promote development, and behind the rapid development of the film industry is technology, which should apply to the film market of any country.

Third, and this is the most important point in my opinion, the talent issue. Speaking of this, Wayne paused deliberately, raised his finger to everyone in the venue, and shrugged. "Maybe some of you will have the opportunity to join this circle in the future. Hollywood is all over the world." Look for "Best Director", "Best Actor" and more.

With the continuous influx of these talents, while bringing a steady stream of ideas, a kind of "strong alliance" has also been formed, just like my film "Batman: Time for War", which has a large number of talents from Xiangjiang Provide help, and they are also active in this "Batman: The Dark Knight" action guidance team. I will only say so much. If you want to talk about this question, even if you sit down and talk for a day and a night, you can’t finish it. These are all based on my personal understanding and feelings. I hope it can be of some help to the students. "

There was sparse applause at the beginning, and then it gradually became more enthusiastic. Many people felt that these things said by the man on the stage were all from the heart and objectively, and there was no falsification to deal with it.

"This guy shouldn't be lying. He's just a China expert. These things are very useful to us, at least we can see where the distance is." A media reporter applauded and sighed at the same time. .

"You said, is it possible to invite him to do an exclusive interview?" A reporter beside him looked at what he had recorded and muttered to himself in a low voice to the colleague who had just spoken.

"It's hard, don't be fooled by his approachable appearance now!"

A reporter on the other side turned his head and said in a low voice: "I was in charge of overseas news before, and I know more or less about this big Hollywood director. He is not an easy person to contact, and the North American media is very fond of him. There are also many disputes. Behind this person's sunny and tough face is a capitalist with a conservative estimate of more than one billion US dollars, and it is said that his private life is very chaotic. Sleeping female stars are like new ones every night."

His words caused a few people around him to look at him for a while, but they thought it was right, how could a rich man with a net worth of more than one billion US dollars be so harmless and easy to touch on the surface, and then think about the rumors in the North American entertainment industry , I believe at least 90% of the words of my peers.

"Okay, due to time constraints, we finally invited a classmate to ask questions." On the stage, Wayne saw Nina pointing her watch with her finger, nodded slightly, and said into the microphone: "The one in the middle of the fourth row The girl, yes, the one with the ponytail."

"Uh"

The girl was suddenly called, with a look of surprise on her face. She only raised her hand with everyone and stood up, only to realize that she didn't know what to ask, but this opportunity was obviously very rare, and she instantly put down all hesitations , asked into the microphone:

"Director Greenberg, as a top Hollywood director, I believe you have also gained a lot of money and fame and fortune from it. In this process, how did you maintain your pursuit and keep creating more excellent works?"

"whispering sound"

"Hey"

Hearing this question, many people at the scene sighed together in a low voice. What a great opportunity to ask such a question.

"Because I clearly know that the fame and fortune I get, women, big houses, luxury cars, and respected status in the circle all come from the movies that are constantly successful in my hands, so, from another perspective~www.novelhall.com ~Fame and fortune are also driving me, and if I don't want to lose everything it brings, I must continue to succeed."

For this question, Wayne did not hide the slightest bit, and directly expressed the purest thoughts in his heart. Now, perhaps because of the relationship between the Internet, there is not much news about him, but with his trip to the East, overseas information It will spread here sooner or later.

With his news, there is never a shortage of women, rights and other controversies, especially those entertainment media, who can even make up an epic R-rated story for him and every woman.

Such a person who has a chaotic private life and has never lacked all kinds of arguments, now pretending to be sane and giving a hypocrite-like answer, it is no different from having an aura of mental retardation, so he chooses to tell the truth. .

But to be honest, it is usually the worst thing to say. After his answer was over, there were various whispered discussions on the scene again, and many people's impression of him was greatly reduced. Especially those media reporters, the leaders' eyes changed immediately, and they solemnly instructed the reporters around them: "Don't remember this paragraph!"

This kind of value is definitely not suitable for dissemination in the media, and the reporters also know that even if they write this answer into a manuscript, there is no platform to publish it.

The activities of the Beijing Film Academy lasted for about two hours and ended. Most of the students started lining up to leave the venue at the moment when the host announced the end, but there was a special girl among them who kept her eyes open. The man on the stage sat motionless.
