Chapter 473

"You know, Director Ouyang couldn't even find your Bole back then, and he couldn't change your luck, and even lost your last net worth. Do you think Lin Xiao's directing ability is better than Director Ouyang's?"

This itself is a trap question, no matter how Liang Shaoqing answers it will offend people.

However, Liang Shaoqing is not a newcomer. He faced similar doubts and difficulties at the beginning.

Liang Shaoqing said with a smile: "There are many factors in the success or failure of a movie. Director Ouyang's directing ability is naturally beyond doubt, but sometimes the script is also a key factor. My biggest shortcoming is that I can't read the script well, but this One point, Lin Xiao just complements me, I believe there is no doubt about his vision and ability in this regard, right?"

"The box office of the three films has exceeded 60 billion. I think looking at the entire film industry, no one dares to say that he has a better vision, right?"

"As for directing ability, I believe that since he dared to take over the director, it must not be a whim, so why should I not trust him?"

"But don't you think it's too risky?"

"Adventure? At the beginning I was the actor, but now, what do I have left? When I met him for the first time, he gave me a song. There is a song in it. If the heart is there, the dream is there. There is a line in the lyrics, look at success or failure, life is heroic, just start all over again. So, I have nothing to lose, so why not give it a go?"

"Actually, I don't understand why so many people see this movie badly. I can't guarantee other aspects, but in terms of acting skills, I believe that I can still play this role well. As for the script, the work written by Lin Xiao , I don’t think anyone is qualified to question it? It has a good story, good actors, and even though Director Lin is directing for the first time, he has an experienced assistant director and a mature team. Coupled with Lin Xiao’s popularity, I think I can't tell if there is any reason for this movie to be viewed badly."

"But you haven't proven yourself at the box office yet, and Lin Xiao also hasn't proven himself in directing ability."

"My friend from the media, are you just a reporter? Who hasn't done it for the first time? If you haven't proved yourself, is it a reason to question? If that's the case, then I have nothing to say."

And Lin Xiao's side was also not let go.

"Lin Xiao, the first time you directed a film was a big production with an investment of over [-] million yuan, and one of the leading actors was Liang Shaoqing who hadn't acted in many years. Many people thought you were too confident. What do you think?"

"Yes, this is my first time directing a film, but I have already made micro-films before, although this does not explain anything, but even if I lack directing experience, I will give this film with two I am an experienced assistant director, and I wrote the script myself. I think I have the most say in the plot, right? As for Liang Shaoqing, he hasn’t acted for many years. On the contrary, I think this is not a bad thing, but a good thing, because he will Appear in the movie with a brand new attitude and appear in front of everyone."

"As for acting, I think an actor is still an actor even if he hasn't acted for many years."

"So do you have any goals for the film's box office?"

"Let's set a small goal for myself first, after all, this is my first film directed, 10 billion!"

"Hiss! How dare you say it!"

"10 billion"

"Can we talk about this movie?"

"Simply put, the film tells a story that happened between a policeman and a thief within 72 hours!"

"Is it a movie similar to Infernal Affairs?"

""Dark War" and "Infernal Affairs" are completely two types of stories. This time, soldiers are soldiers, and thieves are thieves!"

10 billion at the box office, in Lin Xiao's opinion, he is already very conservative.

But when his words spread, countless people laughed at them.

"Lin Xiao threatened to direct the first film with a goal of 10 billion! Is it with confidence, or is it out of the mouth?"

"Lin Xiao's self-directed and self-acted "Dark War" is aimed at 10 billion box office. Is it another miracle, or is it broken? Let us wait and see."

"Existing actor + new director = 10 billion?"

Anyway, there is no need to pay taxes for bragging. Of course, Lin Xiao doesn’t think he is bragging. He even thinks that the goal of 10 billion is too low. .

However, the outside world has been harassing Lin Xiao so much that he has no intention of paying attention. To be honest, "Dark War" is not easy to shoot. Don't watch this movie, it actually doesn't have any big scenes, and in terms of connotation and depth, it is far inferior to "Infernal Affairs" ", but "Dark War" is a very special film.

The evaluation of this film in the system, the artistic star rating is only 2 stars, but the commercial star rating is as high as five stars.

It can be said that this is an out-and-out commercial film.

But for Lin Xiao, who is directing for the first time, it is still not so easy.

Although Lin Xiao found two assistant directors, one was Chen He, and the other was a senior assistant director Han Dong.

Speaking of Han Dong, many people in the outside world may not know him, but in the circle, Han Dong is quite famous, because he has worked as an assistant director for many big directors, and his experience in this field is definitely rich enough.

Logically speaking, people like Han Dong who have worked as assistant directors for many big directors already have the capital to direct independently, but sometimes people are so strange.

Han Dong also tried once before, independently directing a small-budget film, but it turned out to be a three-day trip to theaters.

Since then, Han Dong has given up the idea of ​​directing independently. According to what he said, that is, contentment is the most important thing in people.

Don't look at Han Dong as an assistant director, but in fact his salary is not low at all.

Because he has a lot of experience, he can manage the complicated things on the set in an orderly manner.

However, even though Han Dong was there to help with the planning, as a director, Lin Xiao was still very busy.

There is no time to pay attention to the disturbances from the outside world, and how to say it now, those who should question it will still question it. Anyway, no matter whether it is good or not, at least "Dark War" is very famous.

If the whole film of "Infernal Affairs" is whipping people's hearts from the depths of the soul, full of depression, helplessness and despair, then "Dark War" is a very warm police film.

In fact, there is a very interesting and crucial proposition in "Dark War", that is "what should a person do before he dies?"

In Lin Xiao's view, "Dark War" is a movie about a person who is about to die, and before he dies, he must prepare a perfect death ceremony for himself.

The hero only has 4 weeks to live, and his "72-hour game" was completed before he died.This is a commemoration of life, not only to avenge his father, but also to donate to children with cancer, and to meet an unexpected relationship.This is the "art" of a "perfect" death.
