my time as a director

"Could it be that Li Qian didn't know what to do and led people to build momentum?"

Some reporters even had this idea in their minds, but they felt it was ridiculous. This is going to fight again, so what's the use of being human.

Shaking off the weird thoughts in their heads, the reporters cheered up.

"Welcome everyone to come to the launch conference of my new movie I am not the God of Medicine. Once a year, I will meet you again."

After working for so long, it was finally time to start filming. Li Qian was still in a good mood, and greeted the reporters in the audience with a smile.

"We won't go through the process today. We have to catch Air China's [-]:[-] flight to India tonight. Let me briefly introduce the movie I'm Not the God of Medicine."

Go to India?

The reporters were a bit overwhelmed, but after thinking about it, there was a plot in the plot outline to go to India to buy generic drugs, so it's not surprising that they filmed scenes in India.

"As everyone reported on the Internet before, I'm not the God of Medicine, but what I'm talking about is a story about an ordinary person who went overseas to buy generic drugs for leukemia specific drugs, saved those patients who couldn't afford high-priced medicines, and finally became a "God of Medicine". Of course, there will be many twists and turns and difficulties, but there will also be help from many people."

"..."

Seeing Li Qian on the stage solemnly repeating the outline of the plot that countless media had reported countless times before, the reporters were full of black lines in their hearts.

I have to catch a plane, I don't have time, so why not talk nonsense?

"Director Li, if you put it this way, I'm not the God of Medicine. It's a critical art movie. Are you trying to use this movie to criticize the government's inaction in the pharmaceutical industry, as well as hospitals and drug manufacturers?"

The reporters who were not in a hurry waited for Li Qian to finish speaking, and immediately came to ask questions.

"of course not."

Li Qian shook his head, "First of all, although I am not the God of Medicine, it is a realistic movie, but it is also a purely commercial movie, just like the few movies I made before. The content of the movie is presented in a commercial way. The pain and heartache of leukemia patients is not only physical pain, but also the mental and psychological pressure brought about by leukemia.”,

Commercial film?

Now the reporters are stunned again, this subject matter can be made into a commercial film, so what kind of film will it be?

Before the reporters could react, Li Qian signaled the hotel staff to open the curtain behind the big screen, revealing a huge poster.

The reporters hurriedly took a look, picked up their cameras and snapped pictures.

On the poster, the background looks like a small shop. In the middle, Xu Zheng with messy mid-length hair is crossing his legs, holding a lighted cigarette in his hand, and Da Ma Jin Dao is sitting on a sofa chair.

this image?

Reporter Xu Zheng with hair is no stranger to him. He has long hair when he is on Journey, but why is this hairstyle so strange? .

Tan Zhuo was sitting on the armrest of the chair next to him, and the lining of his coat was leopard print.

Yang Xinmin, Hu Ge, and Huang Bo stood in a row behind them, and the three of them were dressed in the same...down-to-earth manner.

Huang Bo has yellow hair, the reporters are not surprised, but Hu Ge actually looks haggard, his body is thin, his hair is a little thinner, and there is some extreme trend. Definitely recognize it.

There is also one thing in common. The expressions of the five of them are all the same. They open their mouths and laugh. Even if it’s just a picture and no video, you can see that they are smiling very happily, very sincerely, from the heart, especially Contagious.

Is it possible that this is really a comedy?

The reporters recalled an unrealistic guess before, and immediately asked.

Li Qian shook his head, "I'm not the God of Medicine. It's a realistic drama with more or less comedy elements in it, but it's just an embellishment of the plot."

"I'm not the god of medicine, is it really not a comedy?" The reporter repeated.

"Of course not. Leukemia is a more serious topic, and a comedy theme is not suitable."

Even if Li Qian denies it, it is hard for the reporters not to think this way. Realistic medical movies are still commercial movies, and they must be chasing the box office. Comedy movies are the most popular movies, so they just laughed at the few people on the poster. It's so fun, it's hard to believe it's not a comedy.

Moreover, Li Qian also has a criminal record. The first two films were sci-fi films, but they turned out to be sci-fi films. This time, they may be film with realistic themes, but they are actually comedies?

However, based on their understanding of Li Qian, there must be nothing to ask, so they simply don't bother with this question.

"Director Li, I remember saying that the new film will hit Avatar's box office record. What do you think, as a realistic film, I'm not the god of medicine, so how can I get 13 billion at the box office?" The reporter continued to ask.

"Of course it's because I'm not the god of medicine that a good movie is a good movie. I always think that there are only bad movies, and there are no bad themes. A few years ago, no one believed that romance movies and action movies could sell well. Now romance movies, Action movies can also sell high box office, I think as long as you make a good movie that the audience likes, no matter what the subject matter, it has the potential to be a big hit, in the final analysis it depends on whether the audience is satisfied."

Chapter 294

After the press conference, Li Qian went to Huairou to have a look at the studio, and then he caught the Air China flight at [-]:[-]pm on Monday and took the crew to India.

The crew didn't have much time to prepare, only two months, and many places were not perfect, but step by step, basically no problem.

First, I went to Yindu to shoot the location. There was no special arrangement for the location. I finished shooting it in time for the upcoming rainy season, and then went to Jinling for the location. At the same time, I sent a group of people to Shanghai to shoot some background shots.

Finally, I went back to Huairou to shoot indoor scenes, but if the studio was arranged in advance, I would shoot indoor scenes first.

After all, actors also need to feel that when the characters first appear on the stage, and many key scenes are indoors, after shooting and experiencing it first, the feeling may come up, and it will be more handy later.

The three stages can basically be connected.

And when Li Qian stepped on the plane, dozens of media also reported on the I am not the God of Medicine press conference at the same time, without missing every detail.

Including I am not the god of medicine, it is not an art film, but a commercial film.

The movie also has comedy elements, and the main characters on the poster are smiling so happily that it can be seen, etc., which the audience did not expect before.

As soon as various media reports on the press conference came out, they immediately aroused extensive discussions. Since Li Qian announced the development conference in the morning, all movie fans have been looking forward to it.

"I'll go, read it right, I'm not the god of medicine, but it's a commercial movie?"

"Didn't you talk about art films before, why did it become a commercial film again?"

"There is not much difference between an art film and a commercial film. Li Qian is a director who pays attention to the story. He will definitely not make it so mysterious. It is not a problem to say that a commercial film is not a problem. After all, it is going to sell at the box office, and he even brags that he will break Avatar's box office record. "

"But what Li Qian said seems to be a purely commercial movie, how do you say that?"

"How should I put it, in fact, Zhang Yimou's hero, the golden armor in the city, and the ambush from all sides are not pure commercial films. The core of the bones is actually an art film. A truly pure commercial film should be a narrative flow, with a rich and complete story. Good feeling, rich core, suitable for all ages, both refined and popular."

"So, I'm not the god of medicine, what am I shooting for?"

"I see! It must be a crime drama. I checked before and found that generic drugs from Indo cannot be imported, so the drug bought by the protagonist must have been smuggled. There will definitely be a lot of action scenes, car chases, and police chases. Great shootout scene."

"I'm lost, I'm crazy, how is it possible!"

"Sand sculpture, even if it's such a plot, why would you ask Xu Zheng to play it, and you didn't read the poster? That sloppy appearance is a smuggler?"

"I still think it's a comedy, why don't you always look for Xu Zheng and Huang Bo, and the poster looks like a comedy, so happy to laugh."

"I guess it's a tragedy. Comedy is not something anyone can make. It needs talent. It must be a very touching tragedy."

"The possibility of tragedy is high. Judging by Hu Ge's appearance, I specially found a handsome guy to act ugly. It must be to highlight the tragedy!"
