Chapter 286 Appreciation

"Director Zhang, hello!" In the company's reception room, Liu Yufan and Li Yi met the well-known director Lao Touzi.w w w..com//"Advertisement full text txt download. After the latter entered the door, he quickly stretched out his hands and smiled at the other party. Although Li Yi represents a company, facing such a god-level director, he did not dare to show the arrogance of his boss at all.

"Hello, Mr. Li." Seeing Li Yi coming over, Director Zhang also got up from the sofa and shook hands with him. However, there was no smile on his thin face, and there was a sense of seriousness.

Being serious is a major feature of this director. He always has such a serious face no matter what occasions appear on any occasion or even some major awards ceremony. This also makes his staff and actors awe. He is a well-known Chinese director and the first generation of Chinese directors. He has come from a famous family and has won awards internationally many times. This time he was invited to direct such an MV that is less than five minutes long, which shows that Times Records has put in a lot of effort.

Just now, Li Yi revealed to Liu Yufan in private that the company paid a "price" of more than one million just to invite him. You should know that this was at the end of the 20th century. More than one million at this time was much more valuable than the money in later generations.

Such a large formation made Liu Yufan feel a little nervous while being excited.

After a brief chat with Li Yi, Director Zhang also noticed Liu Yufan who had been standing behind Li Yi. Since he had already watched the live performance video of him in Sankesong Gymnasium before, Director Zhang was no stranger to him.

"Liu Yufan, hello, I am Zhang Yimou, the director of your mv." Director Zhang said, extending his hand to Liu Yufan.

After shook hands with the legendary director, Liu Yufan felt quite flattered. He has been reborn until now, and this is his contact with the highest-level celebrity in the entertainment industry. Although he rarely appears on screen, not many Chinese people have ever seen the movies directed by him. However, few of the actresses who have appeared in his movies are not very popular, so people jokingly call the heroine who has appeared in his movies "Mou Girl". Being a "Mou Girl" is the dream of every female movie actor.

"I wonder if my MV will make me a 'Mindie Man'," Liu Yufan thought with some amusement in his heart.

Listening to Director Zhang's self-introduction, Liu Yufan also quickly introduced himself.

"Hello, Director Zhang, I am Liu Yufan. I am honored to be able to cooperate with you. Please give me some advice!" Liu Yufan and Director Zhang shook hands and said humbly.w w w..com/《》Advertisement full text  word

"Haha, Yufan, Director Zhang is the most well-known director in our industry. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the number one director in China. If you can invite him this time, it will be difficult for your MV to be popular." Li Yi joked next to him at the right time.

"Mr. Li is polite. I can only say that I can try to shoot the MV well. As for whether it is popular or not, it depends on the audience's response." Zhang Yimou said modestly.

"Director Zhang, you are too modest. The entire domestic entertainment industry knows that your name is the guarantee of box office." Li Yi quipped.

After saying a few words to Li Yi, Director Zhang nodded at him and said, "Mr. Li, I want to talk to Yufan alone. Is it convenient for you to see?"

"Ah, it's convenient and convenient. Where to talk? Why don't you go to my office? The conditions here are too simple." Li Yi said hurriedly.

"No, it's very good here. We won't take up too long." Zhang Yimou said to Li Yi.

"It doesn't matter. It's okay, it's okay to talk for as long as I'll let the work outside pay attention and I will never let others disturb you. Those two people are talking here, so I'll go out first." Li Yi said, then looked at Liu Yufan and said, "Yufan, please ask Director Zhang for advice. If you can get his guidance, it will be enough for you to benefit for a lifetime."

"I know Mr. Li, I will." Liu Yufan nodded at Li Yi with a smile, but then he felt a little funny. Li Yi had never seen before. His flattery skills are getting more and more powerful. Such talents should be involved in administration.

Seeing Li Yi walk out of the reception room and close the door again, Director Zhang then signaled Liu Yufan to sit down opposite him.

"Yufan, you don't have to be nervous. It is my work habit to communicate with the main actors before filming the film. Let's just chat." Zhang Yimou nodded at Liu Yufan and said. Although he said not to make the other party nervous, just for his tight poker face, I'm afraid that few actors will not be nervous.

"Okay, Director Zhang, please ask." Liu Yufan pointed at Director Zhang and said seriously.

"Well, it's okay, relax, let's just talk. Yufan, how did you think of creating this song, or what was your motivation for creating it?" Zhang Yimou asked straight to the point. Understanding the creator's ideas in depth will help him better grasp the connotation of this work and thus arrange the most reasonable expression methods.

Listening to Director Zhang's words, Liu Yufan thought for a while before saying, "Actually, creating this song is a product of passion. Occasionally, once you go out to sea on a boat, you feel the magnificence of the sea. Suddenly, a few melodies appeared in your mind, and then you came up with this song." Liu Yufan talked casually. In fact, his statement was half true and half false. Of course, he plagiarized the song from the melody of later generations, but the scene he described was also very consistent with the artistic conception of the song.

Sure enough, after hearing Liu Yufan's words, Zhang Yimou did not doubt anything else. Composer compositions often have no reason. Just like when he made a movie, there was time for an inspiration to appear without any reason. Seeing a scene, hearing a sentence, smelling a smell can all become an inspiration. In his opinion, the process of the inspiration that Liu Yufan mentioned was normal.

"So, what kind of artistic conception does your music describe? What kind of emotions do you want to express? To be honest, I like the music very much, but I don't understand the name very much. he's a pirat "" is 'it is pirate', right? Why is such a piano piece full of heroism such a somewhat evil name?" Zhang Yimou asked. This is also something he has been confused in the past two days. Out of his dedication, he would watch the CDs sent to him by the record company when he was fine these two days. The style of this song is also very suitable for his appetite. After listening to it a few times, he fell in love with it, but he never understood what was going on with this name.

When Liu Yufan heard Zhang Yimou ask about this, he immediately laughed. I guess everyone who has heard this song will have this doubt. Unless he traveled through time like himself and watched the series of movies "Pirates of the Caribbean", it would probably be difficult to understand the meaning of the song's name.

"Director Zhang, in fact, this name is not without reason. I just read some Western novels some time ago, which describe the situation of pirate fighting inspired me. The image of pirates I want to create is not evil, but a fighter who pursues free thoughts to resist the system of the time, or a pioneer of thought. He does not bow to the powerful and decadent ruling forces, drives his own warships, and fights bravely with them. He is smart and brave, fearless and powerful, and also has some humor. He is a pirate and he is also a hero. Well, basically, this is what I think in my heart." Liu Yufan combined the movie and explained some of his understanding of this song in his heart. After saying that, he looked at Zhang Yimou with some anxiety, for fear that he would have any unhappy reaction. You know, it is bizarre that he just said, and most people really can't accept these things.

Unexpectedly, after listening to Liu Yufan's story, Zhang Yimou showed some curiosity. Looking at Liu Yufan, he asked with some praise: "A very good idea, yes, a fighter who has some evil factors, but in essence, is a fighter who pursues justice and desires freedom. Such an artistic image is really fresh. Unlike the previous ones, such a somewhat alternative image makes it look more flesh and blood fuller! Not bad, Yufan, I have to say that you are indeed very talented in creativity. Just by your idea, you shouldn't learn to play the piano, but learn to write novels or make movies, and there is definitely a bright future." Zhang Yimou praised.

Liu Yufan felt a little embarrassed when he heard Zhang Yimou give such a high evaluation. After all, many of the things in it were collected from the movie, not his true thoughts. Now that Zhang Yimou praised him, he felt a little guilty.

Zhang Yimou was a little excited. After learning about the image of this song, he had already begun to outline the plot of MV in his heart.

"Yufan, we don't rush to shoot this MV for now. I'll be quiet for two days and think about the plot of the whole work. In addition, you have to work hard and try to reproduce some concrete props according to your ideas, such as the character image, the appearance of the pirate ship, etc. After all, you are the original author and you should have your own unique understanding of these things. By the way, how are you painting?" Zhang Yimou asked.

When he heard Zhang Yimou ask about painting, Liu Yufan shook his head embarrassedly, saying that he could still play music, but he was a rolling pin to blow fire. He knew nothing about it.

"It's okay, I'll transfer an artist to you from the crew. If you have any ideas, tell him, let him draw according to your wishes, and modify it if you don't draw it correctly. If you are satisfied, give it to me. Yufan, I want to be careful. This is very important for shooting." Zhang Yimou looked at Liu Yufan and said.

"Okay Director Zhang, I will think about it seriously." Liu Yufan had nothing to worry about about this question. After all, he had watched the movies, and he still had a general impression of the appearance of the "Black Pearl". As for the protagonist Jack Sparrow, his classic mustache and big eyes, Liu Yufan could even remember it with his eyes closed, but it was a bit unrealistic to find the original actor now.

"Well, Yufan, I have a temper for shooting things. Otherwise, I won't take pictures. You should prepare first. We will meet again in two days. Then we will set some shooting details when we are ready, and we will start!" Zhang Yimou said, stood up and stretched out his hand to Liu Yufan, and said sincerely: "Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!" Liu Yufan smiled and stretched out his hand, holding it with the legendary director.
