Chapter 415 Either Business or Art
Perhaps in some people's eyes, business and art can be balanced, but Lin Xiao doesn't know that much. In his eyes, there should be only two kinds of movies, either business or art.

It’s not that commerce and art cannot coexist, but, at least in his opinion, a movie that coexists with commerce and art must not be able to achieve the ultimate in commerce. Similarly, since art is advertised that only a minority can understand it , then it has compromised to the business itself, and it is not so pure.

So sometimes it is difficult for Lin Xiao to understand those big directors, why they want to include private goods in commercial films, but the results are neither fish nor fowl, or he has not reached that level.

So although he welcomes Nan Ke's initiative to join, he still has doubts.

"Director Nan, do you think it is possible for commerce and art to coexist?" Lin Xiao asked.

"I used to think that commerce and art were not impossible to coexist, and even if the balance between commerce and art could be achieved, then it would be a classic. But after "A Thousand Machines", I discovered that perhaps commerce and art can coexist perfectly , but at least the current me doesn’t have that ability.” Nan Ke said with a wry smile.

"Then, does Director Nan want to direct business or art?" Lin Xiao asked again.

"Although I don't want to admit it, when it comes to commercial films, I'm still a bit uncertain. Mr. Lin, both of your films have been commercially successful, so I'll be honest, the reason why I want to join Your company mainly wants to steal the teacher." Nan Ke didn't hide it, but said directly.

"As for movies, my understanding is actually very shallow, but I have also summed up some things. I don't understand art movies, and I don't have much experience in them. However, I have watched a lot of commercial movies, because commercial movies are after the audience. After watching so many successful commercial films, I found that the stories of successful commercial films are always very simple.”

"Because most of the audience go to the movies. To put it bluntly, they are actually ignorant. They prefer to relax under the pressure of work and life. Therefore, the plot does not need to be too complicated. What they need It is the kind of clear story line that can be understood at once."

"In contrast to those failed commercial films, many times, the story is not told well, or there are many obscure things."

"In general, one of the most obvious characteristics of a successful commercial film is that it is vulgar! Ordinary people, ordinary things, because most movie viewers are ordinary people themselves."

"However, in my opinion, if Director Nan completely abandons art films and focuses on commercial films, the loss outweighs the gain." After Lin Xiao said a lot, he suddenly changed the subject.

A look of astonishment appeared on Nan Ke's face, he didn't understand what Lin Xiao wanted to express.

"Let's put it this way, in my opinion, Director Nan, your greatest advantage is actually your achievements in art films. Although art and business are somewhat contradictory, in many cases, they lead to the same goal. The ultimate in art can actually evolve. for business."

"If Nan Dao can reach a high level in art, then it will naturally feed back the commercial field. To put it bluntly, it is a name."

"I once heard a story here. To be honest, I personally felt very shocked after hearing it, but I am a layman, so I can only feel shocked. Director Nan, you are an expert in this field. Maybe, you Maybe you will like this story." Lin Xiao said with a smile again.

"Oh? I'm a little curious about a story that can shock even Mr. Lin." Nan Ke understood what Lin Xiao meant.

And he also understood what Lin Xiao said before.

In fact, it means that he directly transformed into a commercial film, and he was a little bit desperate.

Where is his advantage?It lies in his achievements in art films, but in this regard, he has not yet become a pivotal existence, or has not yet achieved the ultimate, so it cannot be transformed into commercial things.

But if he can achieve the ultimate in art films, even if he shoots commercial films with some private goods, with his name, he may not be unable to make a difference.

Nan Ke, who has experienced failure, is no longer as stubborn as before.

On the contrary, it was Lin Xiao who told the story, which shocked him even after hearing it, and made him curious.

In fact, compared with commercial films, art films, in many cases, the script is more important, because an ordinary script may be able to make a blockbuster movie in the hands of a major commercial director, but if an ordinary script , an ordinary story, it is almost impossible to achieve something artistically.

The reason why Lin Xiao suddenly thought of telling Nan Ke a story was mainly because when he exchanged the script, he actually saw a script in the system with a rating of over five stars.

After Lin Xiao exchanged it, after reading it, he was in a bad mood.

This script, the story is actually very simple, but Lin Xiao read it, and he didn't slow down for a long time.

"Fugui was originally a young landlord, but he was addicted to gambling, and finally lost his family business and became impoverished. Fugui, who was in poverty, went to seek medical treatment because of his mother's illness. Captured the strong man, and was captured by the People's Liberation Army later,
When he returned to his hometown, he found out that his mother had passed away. His wife, Jiazhen, had worked so hard to bring up a pair of children, but unfortunately the daughter became dumb due to an illness. "

"My wife, Jiazhen, was unable to do heavy work because of schizophrenia, and the burden of the whole family was on him alone; originally he had a lively and clever son, but because the son had the same blood type as the county magistrate's wife, in order to save the county The eldest wife died of too much bleeding; her daughter Fengxia married Erxi, the city's first-timer introduced by the captain, and after giving birth to a baby boy, she died on the operating table due to hemorrhage; and Fengxia died at home three months after her death. Zhen also passed away one after another; son-in-law Erxi was a porter, and because the crane made a mistake, he was crushed to death by two rows of cement boards."

"Fugui became a loner. Fortunately, his son-in-law and daughter left him a lively and lovely grandson Kugen. The grandson Kugen followed Fugui back to the countryside, but life was very difficult. Even the beans were hard to come by. After eating, Fugui felt sorry for his grandson, so he boiled beans for Kugen, but Kugen died from eating beans..."

After Nan Ke listened, he remained silent for a long time. After a long time, he let out a long breath.

Although the story Lin Xiao told was very simple, it was indeed very shocking.

In this story, every touch of warmth in life was directly torn apart by death after death.

Almost all kinds of bitterness in life are fermented in such a life story, whoever sees it is too bitter to speak.

In Nan Ke's eyes, this story can be described by more than just shocking words?
