Chapter 701: What kind of gathering for the elderly?(1/2)

Therefore, he chose to make a suspense movie, and claimed that he wanted to make a real suspense movie instead of a suture monster. It can be said that the pressure on Zhang Feng's shoulders is very heavy.

At the same time, she is also very courageous.

She is willing to do this kind of thing that is obviously thankless and may bring down all her previous achievements. Isn't this enough to show Zhang Feng's courage?

Standing with Zhang Feng is of course her best friend, Ms. Mi Li.

The lady was originally a lawyer, specializing in marriage and family cases. Of course, in her own words, although she did an outstanding job in this category and had extremely high achievements, as time went by, in fact, Mi Li

I'm getting tired of it.

Lost motivation for career development.

Many people have the misconception that marriage and family cases mainly focus on the filial piety of parents, which is a very boring category of cases.

But in fact, the number of these cases is extremely huge, and the lawyers who can make a name for themselves in this field are also very good.

However, correspondingly, there are too many lawsuits of this type, and the side effects are very obvious. You know, if you can go to the stage of prosecution, there will be no sweet and beautiful love stories.

Some of them are all kinds of weirdos, with their weird and weird stories, all of which are poured into Mi Li's mind.

This makes Mi Li, who still had great longings for love and marriage after graduation, no longer have any good impressions of this form.

It can be said that the more we work in this field, the lower our expectations for marriage and love become. Now we are a group without desires.

I also have a deep understanding of why the elders always say that marriage is the tomb of love. I used to think that they were too pretentious, but as a marriage and family lawyer, Mi Li has a real feeling.

This is really a tomb, the kind with grass growing on top of it.

So, with Zhang Feng's encouragement, Mi Li also started a new attempt. She made full use of her own experience and jointly wrote a story with Zhang Feng.

If this step works, then Mi Li might also be able to make a gorgeous transformation and become a screenwriter.

You know, if she can really take charge of the situation and write a good story, she will definitely be a sought-after screenwriter in the industry.

Nowadays, there is not a lack of screenwriters in the industry who can write silky suspense stories, it can be said to be a scarcity.

real.

If you count it on your fingers, you can't even use up five fingers.

The current situation is so bleak. Many screenwriters have no practical experience in writing suspense scripts and have switched careers from feature films or other types of films. To be honest, their level is really not to be praised.

If Mi Li can really perform well, then her path in the industry should be opened up quickly.

However, working with Mi Li is a bit risky for Zhang Feng.

Mi Li is holding a stack of paper, which is the half-written script.

"Xiao Feng, if you want to film the script I wrote, it must be about women. Do you think this is feasible?"

Mi Li would say this because he was seriously considering Zhang Feng as a friend.

Female-themed movies, in this market, belong to the type that are popular but not popular. It should be noted here that the female-themed movies we emphasize are different from traditional romance movies, especially youth movies.

Romance films and youth films generally write stories around women as the core, but they have a traditional audience.

And these audiences are generally young people who like to watch romance movies, and they are mainly women.

So, what kind of female-themed movies are Mi Li talking about?

Movies of this type often no longer focus on sweet or sad love stories. To be honest, in Mi Li’s words, according to her experience, many women, especially those who enter marriage, have a difficult time in their lives.

Most of the tragedies stem from the marriage itself, especially the partner who is either shrewd and calculating or extremely vicious.

In the face of the profound suffering of these women, it is a very disrespectful attitude to talk about love blindly.

Could it be that those women who have been devastated by time and cruel family life once did not believe in love?

It can be said that the more deeply injured a woman is and cannot extricate herself, the more she trusts and longs for love before marriage.

If you are getting married just for money and to find a long-term meal ticket for yourself, then there is no need to be emotional. Even if you seem to be emotional, it is just pretending.

They are not true feelings at all. Once they break up, they can settle their accounts openly and there will be no obstacles at all.

Mi Li has seen a lot of people like this.

But, to be honest, in contemporary marriage and family relationships, most of the losers are women.

Well, since it is a female subject, this kind of film focuses on women's suffering, women's various entangled emotions and life experiences.

Even though it is cloaked in suspense, the core of the story still focuses on vulnerable female groups.

To be honest, if the quality of this type of film is good, it will be the focus of the film festival and it will be easy to get praise from professional film critics.

However, just like many movie fans often shout, why don’t we have a certain type of movie, domestic entertainment movie pills and other slogans.

Although they call for more movies with certain themes, of course, female themes are among them, but when you actually make it, they generally won't support it.

Won't even look at it.

Authenticity pays lip service but doesn’t deliver.

Films about women often face this kind of situation in the film market. Although everyone calls for attention and production, films of this type often fall into sentimentalism and have a very sad core.

Because it takes sympathy and concern as the perspective, the final narrative perspective is often quite dogmatic and has a certain didactic nature.

For moviegoers who just want to have fun and relax in the theater, this type of movie will naturally make them frown.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Not to mention that the target audience for watching movies is relatively narrow.

Think about it, would male audiences like to watch this type of movie?

No, they don't pay much attention to the plight of women on a daily basis, let alone expect them to go to the cinema to support it.

So, what about women who are fellow compatriots?

Sorry, the results may not be satisfactory.

Many female viewers are also insensitive to such a movie, so it can be said that perhaps this movie has lost about two-thirds of its target audience before it was officially released.

This is not thankless, what is?

Of course, Mi Li supports Zhang Feng’s shooting ideas. The two of them conceived the story together, and half of it is now written.

However, if this movie was to be put on the market and tested, she would really be worried about Zhang Feng.

Is she really okay?

There is no problem with the suspense theme, but the problem is that the screenwriter Zhang Feng is looking for is Mi Li.

Mi Li is a lawyer, and she has a steady stream of various legal cases with a wide range of subjects. However, there are also limitations.

The lawsuits that Mi Li has fought are basically focused on marriage and family, which makes her naturally inclined to this subject when writing scripts.

However, such an attempt may not necessarily be a good thing for Zhang Feng.

After all, her last movie was the box office champion and she is a rising star in the commercial film industry.

And now, she actually wants to switch to the field of female-themed suspense films. This genre is very likely to have little box office success. She has not yet gained a solid position as a commercial film director, and it is very likely that she will be questioned for this.

Why bother?

In fact, Mi Li has discussed this issue with Zhang Feng a long time ago. Since her goal is to become a successful commercial film director, there is no need to change in such a hurry.

Wouldn't it be nice to make one or two more commercial films with outstanding results and pile up the cumulative box office results?

If this movie doesn't go well, or the results are poor, how does Zhang Feng plan to end it?

Of course, Mi Li seriously mentioned these concerns to Zhang Feng before officially starting to write the script.

At that time, Zhang Feng didn't take it seriously.

And now, Zhang Feng also didn't listen to a word.

"Mi Li, you used to be a capable person, but now you are becoming more and more verbose."

"I'm not thinking about you. I'm afraid you'll fall, but you still dare to laugh at me." Mi Li pouted, feeling particularly unconvinced.

Of course Zhang Feng knew that she meant well, but wasn't that what trying meant?

If you just stick to the field that you are good at, what is the point of trying? It is just repeating it again and again.

To break through, you must be prepared to make sacrifices.

Actually, this is nothing.

She, Zhang Feng, still has the capital.

"Mi Li, I've told you a long time ago that I chose this subject, not because I chose to cooperate with you. Why don't you understand?"

He is a very smart person, but he also gives people a lot of headaches at critical moments.

"I understand, and I also understand your thoughts. I just think that doing this is a bit risky. Are you sure you can take the photo?"

In fact, the core of this matter has always been here.

Movies are also an art for the masses. No matter how hard the director works, as long as his work is not accepted by the audience, he feels that no matter how talented he is, no matter how hard he shoots, no matter how high the quality of the work is, it will be of no use.

On the contrary, as long as the director's work can resonate with the audience and like it loyally, then no matter what the subject matter is, whether it is unpopular or popular, it can achieve good results.

Maybe it really won't be a hit, but it's not a big problem. Maybe it can win some good awards.

Maybe, you can also change your destiny at the box office?
