Chapter 163 Zhou Ming is helpless
"The whole Mexican film and television industry is a problem. I wonder what Mr. Zhou Ming, what do you mean?" Guzman asked curiously.
In fact, not only Guzman, but everyone else has such questions, and they are even angry at Zhou Ming's actions.
After all, these people are not Guzman. For them, no matter how Guzman admits defeat to Zhou Ming, they still will not agree that Zhou Ming is a film and television artist. It is precisely because of this that when Zhou Ming criticized the overall atmosphere of the Mexican film and television industry, they felt angry. It was only because of Guzman's face that they dared not say anything openly, but muttering in a low voice is still indispensable.
"This Zhou Ming is so shameless. He just won director Guzman once by taking advantage of one trick, and he was going to push his tail to the sky? He even said bluntly about the problems of the entire Mexican film and television industry. Do you really think you are a character? Do you know the current situation of the film and television industry in Mexico and what are the components of the film and television industry? In this way, you will not be afraid of flashing your tongue when you speak loudly every day..."
If he competed with these little people every day, Zhou Ming would be exhausted, so he ignored the buzzing and screaming like flies.
"Why do you think classics will be famous for generations? What is the most important point?" Zhou Ming raised a question to Gusman.
This problem stumped Guzman and made everyone else confused, because Zhou Ming just said that there was something wrong with the entire Mexican film and television industry? Why did he suddenly jump to the famous works?
Despite his confusion, Guzman still answered honestly: "I think the reason why classics are famous for generations is probably because these works have very high literary value and amazing storylines. In addition, I think these works must have revealed some dark side or some social disadvantages of the social background at that time, and pointed directly at people's hearts."
"You have said too much, I will only ask you the most important point." Zhou Ming emphasized.
Guzman thought about it and replied: "I think these should be very important and are indispensable elements of classic works."
Zhou Ming shook his head, Guzman immediately asked Zhou Ming to correct him seriously, and then Zhou Ming told him: "Actually, what you said just now is right, but I think the most important thing for famous works to be remembered forever is that readers like it!"
"If a book does not have enough readers and audiences, then no matter how outstanding it is, it is just a self-entertainment in the literary circle, and it is meaningless; on the contrary, if a book has a very wide range of readers and audiences, then it has the basis to become a masterpiece. If it can stand the test of time, it can become a masterpiece. As for its connotation and other social significance, people will naturally add it to it."
Zhou Ming then said: "Then I believe that film and television should be the same, what do you think director Guzman?"
Guzman did not answer Zhou Ming, but the solemn thinking expression on his face was already a good answer. Zhou Ming continued to say: "Of course, film and television works should be like this, otherwise would you shoot a movie that you think is very good and accuse the audience of not being able to appreciate it? That's too shameless and ridiculous."
"And we just took out the Taiwanese script that we asked others to evaluate. Almost all directors and industry insiders chose you, but those who chose me were those staff and extras who were not so knowledgeable."
Zhou Ming paused and said, "Without explaining his identity, I believe their choice is fair, so this means that their vision is the same as that of director Guzman, and this can also show the atmosphere of the entire Mexican film and television industry, but this atmosphere seems to be very different from that of ordinary people."
"Yes, we are a little too self-centered, which leads to a disconnect between us and the audience as a whole." Guzman nodded and said, "Whether it is the camera language or other film and television technologies, they should serve the film and television dramas. As a result, we over-emphasize these technologies, which makes the film and television itself lighter."
"So how should I change the situation now?" Guzman asked.
"It's very simple. It's just to throw away the unnecessary film and television technology in your mind and shoot the film from the purest angle of an audience. I believe you will have a deeper understanding." Zhou Ming said.
Guzman said with emotion: "That's true. In the past, I always thought that I should use more advanced film and television technology to shoot more beautiful and profound film and television works. I think that is the art I pursue, but I forgot that any work is to be taken for the audience. Only works that most audiences recognize are good works, not merely recognized by myself."
Speaking of this, Guzman suddenly stood up and bowed to Zhou Ming and said, "Thank you very much Mr. Zhou Ming. I am very glad that I was able to take on such an advertisement at this time. I will follow Mr. Zhou Ming and I believe this is a work that will change my life."
The people around him took a breath, because Guzman could definitely be called the big brother in the Mexican film and television industry. It can be said that his works are at the peak of the Mexican film and television industry, but now he is such a person. He said he would shoot works according to an outsider's station, and he also said that this would be a great work that changed his life?
If this had been said half an hour ago, everyone would have thought it was a joke, but now they could not refute it at all. They could only say helplessly in their hearts: God! It’s not that I don’t understand, but that the world changes too quickly!
"You don't have to shoot exactly as I think. After all, I'm just some of the most basic ideas and outlines. The specific storyline and the storyboard scripts are all needed to be added by Director Guzman," Zhou Ming said to him.
Guzman nodded to show his understanding, and then he suddenly remembered something and asked: "Mr. Zhou Ming, I'm sorry, you said just now that you really produced a Hollywood movie, right?"
"Toy Story is a movie I produced last year." Zhou Ming replied.
Hearing this answer, Guzman was so surprised that he almost jumped up: "What? Is this movie called Toy Story actually produced by you, Mr. Zhou Ming? This is incredible. Mr. Zhou Ming, can you tell me what kind of idea it was that made you decide to produce and shoot an animated movie?"
Zhou Ming shook his head: "Shooting? I did not participate in the production of this movie. When I saw this movie, he had already been produced. He just couldn't find a distribution company. After watching it, I thought this movie could make money, so I helped him release it, and the box office was pretty good."
"How can the box office be said to be pretty good? It's just an explosion, okay? His global box office of more than 400 million US dollars has declared that he is the most profitable animated movie!" Guzman said.
Zhou Ming smiled and scratched his head: "This means I am lucky."
Is this a must for all film investors to vomit blood? Do you know how many movies there are in Hollywood that have a global box office of more than $400 million in a year? That is the result of spending a lot of money and spending a lot of effort on script set shooting skills and stars. But when you go to California, you just go to California and find such a movie. Isn’t this so popular that people are more popular?
But Guzman said: "Maybe Mr. Zhou Ming, you first encountered this movie because of luck, but you can discover the value of this movie and promote it and release it, which also shows that you have a unique vision."
This reminded the others, and then they suddenly realized that it was true. I heard that this cartoon was hidden for a while, so why can't others find it? This still shows Zhou Ming's ability. If it were another person, it would definitely not be the case!
This idea made everyone look at Zhou Ming full of respect, as if he was the God shining with holy light.
Faced with such a situation, even though Zhou Ming has experienced all kinds of storms since his rebirth, he was still a little uncomfortable, so he said to Guzman: "I believe that with your ability, as long as you highlight the product as much as possible and spit out the concept of free purchase of the contract machine, this advertisement will definitely be fine."
"Sir, don't worry, I will definitely take photos strictly according to your requirements!" Guzman said firmly.
Guzman accepted Zhou Ming's explanation and went to modify the script. When Zhou Ming thought he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw Anlina, who had not been moving, suddenly came over.
"Is there anything you have to do?" Zhou Ming asked in a daze.
"Mr. Zhou Ming, do you ask me what's wrong? Actually, I don't have anything to do. I just want to ask if you have any plans to produce a movie recently. I can play any role you need."
Anlina said as she deliberately put a very seductive and sexy pose in front of Zhou Ming: "Or what kind of role do you think I will be suitable for this?"
Anlina's sudden scene surprised the undispersed crowd again.
"My God, I'm not mistaken. Anlina, who has a Mexican star, actually took the initiative to ask others for roles? This is incredible, because generally, they are not investors and directors in various films go to her agency to ask her to participate in her own movies? Why did Mr. Zhou Ming be completely reversed? If I hadn't been sure, I really would have doubted whether it was Anlina..."
Listening to the discussion around, Zhou Ming frowned: "I'm sorry Miss Anlina, I'm not a professional film and television producer. If you really want to participate in a movie, please ask Gao Ming."
Leaving this sentence, Zhou Ming left the studio without caring about Anlina and others' surprise. When he walked out of the studio's door, he could hear the sudden burst behind him.
Zhou Ming sighed. He really couldn't accept Anlina because he knew how to observe words and expressions better than others. He knew that Anlina's teasing just now had a little seductive meaning. On the other hand, he really didn't understand any film and television art. Today, he was just relying on a little bit of what he wrote on the Internet in his previous life, and his eloquence was so scared. If you really want to play a card movie, then forget it!
Alas! I just want to shoot an advertisement, why did I encounter such a thing? It was the kneeling of a famous Mexican director, and the most popular actress posted it...
