Chapter 580: The Creativity Triggered

"Hey, is director Chen Kaige? I am Wang Meng." Wang Meng called Chen Kaige.

"Ah! It's Director Wang, I'm Director Chen's assistant. Please wait a moment, I'll call Director Chen." A girl came from the phone, probably Chen Kaige's assistant.

"Okay." Wang Meng said.

Contact Chen Kaige Wang Meng with a plan.

I remember that in 2012, Chen Kaige filmed a very sensational movie called "Search", starring Gao Yuanyuan, Zhao Youting, Yao Chen, Bai Baihe and others.

The film shows how five women with different ages, identities and statuses "grow up again" when facing adversity. The white-collar worker in the company played by Gao Yuanyuan triggered large-scale online violence like a butterfly effect because of the small matter of not giving up seats on the bus. The TV reporter played by Yao Chen strives to be objective and fair at work, but unexpectedly he is caught by his own journalistic ideals. The wife of a rich man played by Chen Hong encounters domestic violence when middle-aged, the new worker in the workplace played by Wang Luodan is excluded, and the boss secretary played by Chen Ran succeeds after a period of "workplace scheming".

Wang Meng remembers that the very educational nature of the media is that it is "the media's indiscriminate reports are too exaggerated, which should have been a very common event, because the so-called sympathy for the weak or macro-thinking ideas of the public makes the right person a rat crossing the street by calling people to beat people'.

At the same time, various violent "human flesh searches" caused the parties to be destroyed by both mental and physical destruction of a fatal nature.

This movie has high educational significance and value.

This is what the media is like today. For example, the white-collar worker who plays Gao Yuanyuan, who suffers from lymphatic cancer, takes the bus once and is really tired and wants to rest.

However, when I met the same old man who got on the bus.

It’s just because Gao Yuanyuan was very tired and did not give up her seat, which is not good.

After being reported, people called for someone to beat him, saying that this person had no conscience and morality and would not give up his seat to the elderly.

No elderly man is also a good bird. As an elderly person, he has no elderly cultivation and believes that all young people should give up their seats to themselves and respect themselves is correct. Otherwise, they will be morally corrupt, otherwise they will be uneducated.

This is actually a distorted value.

It is absolutely right for us to respect the elderly, and everyone has never denied it?

But? You have to look at the actual situation. The role played by Gao Yuanyuan is about to collapse due to illness, but because he did not give up his seat, it became an unforgivable mistake. This is wrong!

Everyone stands at the commanding heights and thinks that the elderly are the weak. This distorted attitude is not a social harmony?

So, Wang Meng took this opportunity to shoot such a work and tell the public that sometimes what he hears is not right.

It should not be manipulated by the media.

In this incident, there will be many people who are not sure about the truth and think that the hacker crew has unwritten rules and shady.

Anyway, they don’t care about the facts. They just want to scold them, they just want to show their greatness.

Of course, this is also an inevitable situation now. Everyone has not yet reflected on whether it is right to give up their seats?

Can the elderly understand that the pressure is so great now that young people are not only under the pressure of career and work, but also psychologically earn money, buy a house, buy a car, and find a wife?

Under normal circumstances, it would be certain that the elderly would give a seat.

But if you want to make the elderly regardless of whether they are good or bad, whether they are tired, whether they are crowded or not, or whether they are rushing to work, it would be bad if they are holding an elderly card that does not cost money and has to squeeze the bus and subway for 100 meters.

We respect the elderly, which is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. But? Should the elderly also understand the young people?

so……

Wang Meng thinks that this theory of sympathy for the weak who is wrongly understood is necessary, and that it should not be too blind. If you are the person involved, you will still scold you in a bold manner?

but……

Wang Meng knew that the original "Search" was only a bit sensational in China, and did not have good results in the world, and he did not pay much attention to it.

Wang Meng is different. This amazing mind instantly came up with a good idea.

What Wang Meng dreamed of was that there was a conflict between two plots, and in the end, the two "parties" encountered one inexplicably. Two women who were also misunderstood communicated with each other and talked to everyone to show everyone a story like this.

The form of the story told is like "The True Story of A Niu".

The first conflict in the plot is the Chinese version, and a female white-collar worker was inexplicably attacked and violent. She was searched for by everyone, causing the company to be fired and the family was broken. In short, it was a bit miserable.

The other happened in the United States, and this time the elderly were replaced by children.

A very bad child harassed a lady with a 'hooligan' nature, and the unbearable lady pushed the child to the point.

The parents happened to see it, and the parents, who were indiscriminate, began to stand on the commanding heights of righteousness and attack the lady, but were accidentally recorded by a photography enthusiast.

In this way, this American lady was attacked by public opinion and fired by the company. She despised her friends and wanted to commit suicide several times.

Later, it was involved in faith. After this lady talked to her godfather many times, the godfather used faith to resolve her idea of ​​committing suicide, and asked her to go out and take a look, go to a place closest to heaven, and feel that there is also a beautiful place in her heart.

In this way, the American came to Tibet, China, the place where the pilgrimage was closest to heaven.

And this person in China may only have family members who believe in her. Her wise old father let her disappear for a while and go on a trip. She also chose Tibet.

In this way, the two ‘victims’ met.

Different experiences and the same framed, the two of them became the direction for the story to unfold.

After all, the place in Tibet can indeed purify the mind. The pilgrimage to the Potala Palace with devout pilgrims is very shocking.

Maybe in such a place, I will not be able to express my destiny?

Wang Meng thought of these for the time being. I personally think that it is more involved in bloody palace fighting than the Chinese version, and it is more pure than the Chinese version. I will tell a outline and two stories, which are straightforward and clear.

Of course, the play will inevitably involve human nature, following the herd, blind, faith, etc.

The old Chinese father and the godfather of the United States should have a sense of Wang Meng.

Moreover, an elderly person and a child are all images of weak people in society and should be more touching to the heart.

So Wang Meng planned to contact Chen Kaige to see if he could take over? He was too busy and time would not allow it. If time allowed, Wang Meng wanted to do it himself.

(ps: This story is purely made up by Zuiyue himself. Don’t take it as a reference. Of course, everyone who has different ideas from me can just smile. Don’t take it seriously. After all, it’s fun to write it, please forgive me!).

...

After receiving Wang Meng's call, Chen Kaige was a little confused. When Wang Meng finished speaking, he was very happy to accept it when he heard it.

After all, it is not a science fiction movie. He will not try to change easily. Change is sometimes a difficult step.

"Your idea is very good, I feel good. I really didn't expect you to give me such a good script. To be honest, you know that I'm always plagued by scandals, especially when filming "The Promise", I was attacked by many media. I never said that I'm a good person and a saint, and I have bad things, but... some reports have really passed, and I feel like I'm worse than beasts. I accepted it. It happened that I didn't work during this period. I'll go to find you in a few days. Try to get the script out first and then slowly practice it."

Chen Kaige said.

Moreover, he personally empathized with it. After all... everyone knows that there are too many rumors and criticisms about this person!!

"That's good. Why do I do this? You will know in a few days. Sometimes it's a must!" Wang Meng said.

"Uh!" Chen Kaige was stunned, not sure why.

But it's very steady and because of my age, I'm not curious about it.

Besides, Wang Meng said that he will know in a few days, so let’s watch it again in a few days!

Then, the two hung up the phone.

Wang Meng walked around the office and found that he was well prepared, so he rushed to the hacker crew.
Chapter completed!
