After hearing Yue Guan's words, Zhang Yimou's mind was also agitated.
One said that he really liked the play "shadow", especially the plot calculation in the play. It was very enjoyable and his IQ was very online.
But he is also a senior director, and his level has been improving.
After listening to Yue Guan's words, he immediately realized his mistake: the script of "shadow" is really online, but it's too mean.
If he wants to make a small pattern of small historical film, there is nothing to say, it is definitely a good film.
But what he wanted to shoot was the Warring States period.
It's about winning the world.
That's just conspiracy calculation, which is not worthy of this background.
There are two ways to solve this contradiction:
first, change the background;
Second, change the person and plot.
Of course, Zhang Yimou chose the second one.
Because he knows very well that if he really makes those little people's historical films of small pattern, he will become a literary film again.
And there is no box office for art films.
He wants the box office.
So, he can't be willful.
Moreover, he knew in his heart that after being named by Yue Guan, he would modify it according to the direction given by Yue Guan, which would definitely be more in line with the interests of ordinary audiences.
"Yueguan, you are not authentic." Zhang Yimou pointed to yueguan and said with a smile, "you are not authentic."
Yue Guan??? How come I'm not authentic? "
In order to revise the script of shadow for you, I always thought of three o'clock in the morning yesterday.
Do you really think you can figure it out with a shot in the head?
I can't bear to say I'm not authentic.
Zhang Yimou explained: "you knew there were so many problems in shadow, why didn't you point them out early? Isn't this script yours? "
Yueguan: Director Zhang, the script of "shadow" is not mine. It's a script submitted by our company. In terms of the quality of the script itself, it's really excellent. In fact, my targeted adaptation does not improve the quality of the script itself, but the changes made to the audience. In short, my adapted plot will improve the box office of the play, which really does not necessarily improve the reputation of the play. "
Take Tian Zhan as an example, leaving blank is far better than making it clear in the eyes of many audiences who like to pretend.
There is also the ending. The blank space in the original script leaves a variety of divergent thinking possibilities, but after Yue Guan changed it, the ending is basically fixed, which is reduced in many big V's eyes.
Including improving the structure of a play, no longer let "shadow" see the big from the small, but really tell a grand story and proposition, in fact, they can't be loved by film critics.
Otherwise, Zhang Yimou would not like the tone of shadow.
But what Yue Guan can confirm is that after his change, the audience will definitely like it more.
Because, as Yue Guan has always said, it's relaxing for the audience to go to the movies, not to move their heads. For historical movies, when the audience goes to the cinema, they certainly don't just want to see shadows, assassinations, love jade, tear X
But it seems that our country's big directors can only see these. It is clear that there are so many magnificent stories in our history, but they aim at such things as conspiracy, love, jade, assassination, tearing X that can't be on the stage.
If the hero is a story about the king of Qin sweeping Liuhe, isn't it more interesting than shooting a few assassins?
If the story of demon cat is about the coming of all countries in the Tang Dynasty, isn't it more attractive to the audience than the story of Yang Guifei?
Wuji, yeyan
A good historical classification of the film, the result left the audience only endless slot.
In fact, it can be made better. If the audience watching historical movies still see love and intrigue, isn't it good to go to see urban movies? Go to see the police. Isn't the bandit movie good? Why look at history?
Zhang Yimou has been a director for decades, so he can understand Yue Guan's words clearly.
He nodded: "indeed, as you said, this change will be more straightforward, and the word of mouth will not necessarily be better."
Deng Chao couldn't help but put in a word: "director Zhang, I think the box office is more important, and there are many kinds of word-of-mouth. In fact, it doesn't matter whether the experts' word-of-mouth is heard or not, just like the audience."
He gave ten thousand supports to Yue Guan's proposal.
Because yueguan is an example of the governor of Dadu, Ziyu.
He plays Ziyu.
Originally, he played two roles. Most of them were in charge of Ziyu and Ziyu's shadow double Jingzhou, and Jingzhou's role was to crush Ziyu.
From the perspective of high light level, Jingzhou also crushed Ziyu.
After he was defeated by Yang Cang, Ziyu was trapped in a cave. He was skinny and thought only of revenge. Knowing that his wife and shadow double had got together, he only dared to look out of the window.
If such a character can suck powder, it's strange.Originally, Deng Chao didn't think it was anything. After all, he still had the role of Jingzhou, which was still very high.
But after hearing what Yue Guan said, he thought it was reasonable.
As an idol of all the people in peiguo, Duzi Yu is a hero with both civil and military abilities. How can he be just like this?
Jingzhou is really high light.
But if Ziyu could be more brilliant, why not?
Deng Chao is not stupid. It is obvious that he is good for himself. He will definitely support it.
When Deng Chao opened his mouth, Wang Qianyuan also said, "director Zhang, I think what Mr. Yue said is reasonable. Although the script of "shadow" is exquisite, the pattern is really smaller. "
He plays a lot of Tian Zhan in secret. In fact, he can't see anything on the surface
If the audience is too lazy to think after watching it, his character Tian Zhan is probably a passer-by general.
Of course, Wang Qianyuan also wanted to highlight his sense of existence.
If it is revised according to Yue Guan's suggestion, his role will definitely be set up with more parts and people.
Therefore, Wang Qianyuan is also a strong supporter of yueguan.
Of course, some people support it, while others certainly oppose it.
Because according to Yue Guan's amendment, some people's roles must be cut.
It's even going to be deleted.
Because if the style of the whole play is changed, the existence of some characters is out of place.
However, even if they have ideas, they dare not openly oppose Yue Guan. After all, they have no brain problems. They can only place their hopes on Zhang Yimou. They hope Zhang Yimou can show his domineering spirit as a big director and severely refuse Yue Guan's proposal.
Zhang Yimou let them down.
Because Zhang Yimou's brain has no problem, he also thinks that according to Yue Guan's change, it will definitely be better for the box office.
"Yueguan, how do you think it should be changed?" Zhang Yimou asked.
Yue Guan hesitated.
Seeing Yue Guan's worries, Zhang Yimou waved his hand casually: "don't worry, just say it. This is my play. Even if the actors' plot is affected by the deletion and modification of the script, I will be responsible for it, and I will naturally introduce other resources to them in the future. "
As a national teacher, I am qualified to say this.
And even if he doesn't say that, if he really wants to force the deletion, there's nothing other actors can do.
In the face of big directors, actors themselves are weak.
In addition, yueguan's capital is even more vulnerable.
so this matter is indeed yueguan and Zhang Yimou has the final say, but two people are not the kind of bully people, if it really affects the interests of actors, they are still willing to compensate them.
Seeing Zhang Yimou say so, Yue Guan also nodded: "affected actors can also come to me, our company has a lot of plays, and will try to compensate some resources for you."
Zhang Yimou stopped Yue Guan: "shadow is a play I want to shoot. I'm the director in the crew, and you're also invited by me. I'm sure you can't carry the pot for me. Don't worry, although the resources in my hand are not as good as you, the actors who have suffered losses can still make up for it. And if this movie doesn't work, I won't retire next time. "
Zhang Yimou said that for his part. Of course, Yue Guan could not say anything more.
In fact, normally speaking, Zhang Yimou should make up for the consequences himself. Yueguan's changing the script is to help him, but it's not very profitable for yueguan himself.
Zhang Yimou obviously knows this, so he is very good.
Naturally, yueguan won't rush to be the chief culprit.
Even so, Yue Guan didn't say who would be cut off directly. He started with Pei Wang, who he played, and Yu, the governor of Dadu, who Deng Chao played.
"Ziyu was the governor of Pei state and the first person under Pei king. He made great contributions to Pei state. However, since Pei Wang was brilliant and ambitious, he could not break his arm. Therefore, Wang Pei and Ziyu need a reason that they must live and die together, otherwise they will become very petty. "
If it's the Taiping era, let alone the internal struggle.
In the era of war, the king of a country was at odds with the most powerful minister under his command. Is that a desire to subjugate the country?
This kind of setting reveals a sense of fatigued monarch, but Pei Wang is not fatuous, which is very contradictory.
Therefore, King Pei and Ziyu must have a reason to be enemies.
Zhang Yimou also quickly figured out this point and looked at yueguan with burning eyes: "what's the better reason?"
Yue Guan had already thought about it before he came, and said decisively: "naturally, it is to seek the country and usurp the throne. The throne inherited by King Pei belongs to his elder brother, who already has a son. There's no need to set it too detailed, just need to explain the background a little. After Pei Wang came to power, his brother's only son died of illness. In this way, Ziyu and Peiwang had a reason to be enemies, and this did not affect that they also had the world in mind. The governor, Ziyu, is not a traitor, but he is not loyal to the king. "Deng Chao patted his thigh: "wonderful."
In this way, Ziyu's people stood.
Of course, Yue Guan will not deliberately discredit his role. He is not ill.
In the era of war, there were many wars. A young monarch and a talented and ambitious younger brother, Peiliang, both for his own selfish desire and for Pei's country, thought that he was duty bound.
This idea is reasonable, but there are not many problems.
So Tian Zhan is still loyal to Pei Wang.
Of course, Ziyu's loyalty to the former king made him even better.
No one was wrong, and the pattern improved instantly.
Deng Chao said "wonderful", which attracted Yue Guan's attention.
Yue Guan put his eyes on Deng Chao and then on Sun Li.
"Super brother, is it cool to add drama?" Yue Guan asked.
Deng Chao was embarrassed to smile.
He's really cool.
Jingzhou already has the most scenes.
After Yue Guan's adaptation, Ziyu's plot has become both fanciful and important.
Of course, he has 10000 supporters.
But a movie is that long.
If you add a play to him, the play of others will be reduced.
"I'm worthy of you, brother Chao. I'm sorry for Sister Li." Yue Guan gives Sun Li a sorry look: "in the new script, Ziyu wants to be portrayed as a perfect commander, so Xiao AI's plot needs to be deleted, because in the original script, Xiao AI is basically a blot on Ziyu."
In front of Ziyu, Xiao AI and his stand in Jingzhou cuddle and even contact each other at a distance. This kind of play has to express some metaphor To put it bluntly, isn't it cheating the box office?
What are you talking about?
There are many ways to express metaphors, and chicken love opera is the best one.
Yue Guan doesn't reject chicken love drama, but the problem is that his revised script really has no place for Xiao AI.
In the original script, Yang Cang's Sabre technique is the best in the world, and Xiao AI is the one who breaks Yang Cang's Sabre technique.
The solution is to conquer Yang with Yin.
This is out of place in Yue Guan's new play.
On the battlefield, Yin conquers Yang
That's not the way to look for death.
Moreover, Xiao AI, a puppet, an ancient woman who could not control her own fate, cracked the world's first sword technique
We have to pay attention to the basic law.
This is really illogical.
In fact, after hearing Yue Guan say that she wanted to revise the script for heroes and heroines, Sun Li realized that she was psychologically prepared that her part might be greatly cut. However, when she was called by Yue Guan, she felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
But she soon came back to herself and said with a forced smile, "how much do you want to delete? Yueguan, you can watch it."
Yue Guan hesitated for a moment, and said, "in fact, deleting it doesn't affect the plot."
Let Ziyu have a direct dialogue with Jingzhou.
Don't coerce innocent women in the history of jingo TieMa.
Sun Li
She thought that her plot would be deleted a lot, but she never thought that Yue Guan wanted to delete it all.
Not only she but also Zhang Yimou was surprised.
"Yueguan, delete it all?"
"Director Zhang, I just casually said that it was you who made up your mind." Yueguan passenger airway.
Anyway, if you don't follow me, I'll just run.
"It's not just Sister Li." Yue Guan turned his eyes to Guan Xiaotong and Wu Sanshi.
There was a foreboding in both men.
Unfortunately, the hunch is right.
"The roles of Xiaotong and Sanshi can also be deleted completely."
Yue Guan opened his mouth and sentenced two people to death.
"There are many stories to tell in the age of great struggle and war. The roles and parts of Xiaotong and Sanshi are very weak for the whole plot. It's better to delete their plot and enrich the characters of Peiwang and Yang Cang. "
Hu Jun really wants to praise yueguan.
He plays Yang Cang.
But he put up with it.
After all, Wu Sanshi is still here.
But Hu Jun still in heart praise: "Yue Guan is Yue Guan, too vision, I think Yang Cang play less."
In the script of shadow, Yang Cang has the best martial arts in the world, is the supreme commander of the enemy, and the archetype of the character is Guan Yu.
Then, in the original script, Yang Cang, the invincible character in the world, is broken by Xiao AI played by Sun Li.
First of all, I declare that there is no discrimination and I don't want to attract any boxers. Just from this description, Yang Cang has become a low figure.
Xiao AI's hanging is also inexplicable.
A woman who has never been to the battlefield has come up with a way to crack the martial arts of the invincible general.
Other famous generals in the world can kill themselves by wiping their necks.The weapon to defeat Yang Cang, umbrella knife, is known as the most Yin weapon in the world.
How to say, Yue Guan saw the film "shadow" in his previous life.
There is a saying that the picture of umbrella knife is really beautiful.
There's nothing wrong with the logic of Yin conquering Yang.
The problem is that Ziyu and Yang Cang are fighting on the battlefield.
What the battlefield needs is iron blood, extermination and brutality.
It's not artistic beauty.
The battlefield of shadow is very artistic and beautiful.
It's Yin and Yang.
But the battlefield has nothing to do with Yin and Yang.
A group of elite soldiers use the most Yin weapons in the world to fight. The fighting moves are like women dancing
Or that sentence, it's beautiful from the picture.
But it's not a battlefield.
Since Yue Guan wants to change the plot, he is ready to change all these.
There is no doubt about Zhang Yimou's ability of scheduling big scenes. In the process of shooting shadow, he gave up his ability of scheduling big scenes and devoted himself to pursuing his own aesthetics.
The key point for Yue is that Zhang Yimou can shoot his ability of scheduling big scenes.
It's a good match on the battlefield. There's no need to indoctrinate the audience with the profound truth of yin and Yang, and the audience doesn't need to know it.
Therefore, there is no need for Xiao AI to exist.
In fact, the princess qingpingchang played by Guan Xiaotong and Yang Ping, the son of Yang Cang played by Wu Sanshi, have become less important.
"Director Zhang, what do you think is the significance of Princess qingpingchang and Yang Ping for the play" shadow "
Zhang Yimou thought about it, and then said nothing.
The real situation is that these two roles are specially reserved for young stars, to be exact, for traffic.
Expect them to bring in the box office.
But does Zhang Yimou's film still need actors to bring in the box office?
Even if it is needed, Yue Guan is here, and Deng Chao is here, it's not Guan Xiaotong and Wu Sanshi's turn.
To delete their plays and leave the saved parts to Pei Wang and Yang Cang is naturally more abundant for the overall structure of a play.
Zhang Yimou soon realized this.
So he kept silent.
Silence itself is an answer.
Guan Xiaotong and Wu Sanshi are both child stars. They know more about the entertainment industry than many adult stars and dare not struggle more.
Although they still want to brush the coffee position in Zhang Yimou's movie, Yue Guan and Zhang Yimou both choose to give them up, so they can only accept their fate.
In fact, yueguan is not aimed at them, but their roles really don't need to exist. In addition, the movie they saw in yueguan didn't become a bonus item.
On the contrary, the score has been reduced, especially Yang Ping, who is played by Wu Sanshi. His acting skills and lines have been exploded by Guan Xiaotong
Among the young stars, the so-called acting school is so watery that it scares people to death.
After finishing Guan Xiaotong and Wu Sanshi, Zhang Yimou rearranged the script and found a problem:
"Yue Guan, in this case, there will be no female characters in the whole play?" Zhang Yimou frowned.
Yue Guan asked: "if you don't arrange female roles, is it suspected of female discrimination?"
Zhang Yimou: "certainly not suspected."
"Will it attract boxers?"
"If they don't portray female characters, they won't insult them. Naturally, boxers won't be attracted."
"So why does it have to be female?" Yue Guan said seriously: "the soldier assault also has no female role, which does not prevent it from becoming a recognized classic. The film itself is not suitable for female characters. "
Of course, Yue Guan doesn't hate women. He likes beautiful ladies best. The number of empresses and palaces can testify.
However, it is clear that there is no suitable female role, so we have to force one. That is not to respect the female group, but to make the female group more responsive.
Because people don't think you're a good photographer, uglifying female images.
In theory, the background and story involved in the film can have beauties, but it should be that kind of gorgeous beauties, such as Diao Chan and Zhen MI.
But the main structure of the movie is war and seizing the city, so the beauty is meaningless.
On the contrary, it will reduce the style of the whole play.
Zhang Yimou was convinced.
Deng Chao whispered a warning: "if there is really no arrangement for a female role, the boxer is likely to fight, saying that our play discriminates against actresses and does not give them opportunities."
Yue Guan It's something a boxer can do.
"Then let Sister Li take a dip."
Yueguan doesn't want to get into trouble either.
However, Zhang Yimou was very bold at this time: "no, according to your idea. If we make a historical drama of androgen explosion, it should be more attractive to the audience. And this can also be used as a selling point for propaganda. At the beginning, soldier assault should have done so, attracting a lot of people. "That's true.
Yue Guan knows many little sisters. If they can't portray the female role well in a play, they would rather not have the female role.
If the role destined to be meaningless only plays the role of vase or decoration, the removal of it will not affect the box office, or even make it higher.
Since Zhang Yimou has the courage, Yue Guan certainly won't stop him.
"In fact, in this way, it becomes very simple." Yue Guan sorted out the specific points to be changed: "in short, it's the characters of Fengman governor Ziyu, Pei Wang Peiliang and the world's First Military General Yang Cang. When these three characters stand, the play will stand. "
"In what direction should we go?" Zhang Yimou asked.
"It's even simpler. Governor Ziyu, both civil and martial arts, brother Chao, you play in the aspect of Confucianism and Shuai, don't change. Is there a problem with your performance in the aspect of posture?"
Deng Chao immediately replied, "absolutely no problem."
"Yang Cang's words, Mr. Hu, you will play in the direction of great hero and hero. You can be proud, but you should be invincible enough. Is there a problem?"
Hu Jun laughed: "what I'm good at is playing this kind of role."
"I have confidence in Mr. Hu, too."
If Hu Jun's hero can't play well, there are few actors who can play heroism well in the domestic entertainment circle.
"As for Pei Wang, it's also very simple. It's good to set up a single family that can kill anyone and do anything."
Yue Guan didn't want to play a good man.
Emperors, especially emperors in the war years, are so kind that they are irresponsible to the country and the people.
In the original version, Pei Wang's personal design is relatively good. If you enrich the image of the emperor, you can play less fool and more decisive. If you add some stories, a three-dimensional image of the emperor will come out.
Ziyu Jingzhou, Peiwang, Yang Cang
As long as these four roles stand, the film will stand completely.
In the world of great struggle, heroes come forth in large numbers.
The governor is both civil and military.
It's time to move.
Yang Cang is invincible.
Pei Wang is a man of many faces.
The story between these four men is enough to make a wonderful historical play.
