271. The Possibility of Rebuilding
Fang Xiang looked embarrassed and ashamed.
The reason why "Kidnapping" cost more than 30 million is because he has made too many materials. The script has been modified several times alone, and he has shot two versions. The first version is the love version and the second version is the father-daughter version.
As a result, he didn't expect to be a mess.
Wang Yifan didn't know what to say.
How to do this?
It's better to just go back and rebuild it.
Of course, Wang Yifan is not the Holy Mother. He was not stupid enough to help the other party for no reason.
The reason why I agreed to see it was just because of Xu Cang's face. Wang Yifan and Fang Xiang had no friendship at all.
Of course, secondly, if there is still a way to save business, it means that it is profitable. Wang Yifan doesn't mind taking over this mess.
But judging from the current situation, to be honest, Wang Yifan is really too lazy to care about this matter.
A Dou can't help him, what can I do?
Fang's dream is dead, his final hope is shattered, his dream of film is shattered, and he has to face huge debts.
Xu Cang looked at Fang Xiang's desperate appearance and felt unbearable. He looked at Wang Yifan and said, "Director Wang, do you want to see another version?"
Wang Yifan originally wanted to refuse, but looked at Fang Xiang. At this moment, he was like a prisoner waiting for a sentence, and Xu Cang also looked begging, and he couldn't help but sigh.
"It's okay, I've come here. By the way, have you brought your storyboard script here?" Wang Yifan said.
Some people may ask, isn’t Fang Xiang a good TV series? How could such a director end up in this field?
At least he can find the publisher? Of course he can find it, but this movie costs 30 million yuan. Where can ordinary distribution companies operate?
Moreover, if the promotion and distribution are not done well, good movies can be smashed, not to mention that this "Kidnapping" itself is not favored.
This film cannot be said to be worthless. In fact, Fang Xiang’s experience and the cold treatment this film has great publicity value. If Wang Yifan can take over, then this is also a big gimmick, but it is definitely not enough to have these alone. You must pass the movie first.
Overall, it’s just that movies can save them.
But to be honest, Wang Yifan said that he really can't save him.
But if Wang Yifan refused on the spot, it would be a bit too cruel.
So Wang Yifan thought about it and then asked that sentence.
The director's storyboard script is the basis for shooting the entire movie. If you want to know which shot and what you are shooting, you need to have this storyboard script, and then select from the shots you are shooting for editing.
If Wang Yifan wants to re-edit, the role of storyboard scripts is like the blueprint of a building, which is the basis and blueprint for photographers to shoot and editors to conduct post-production. It is also the basis for actors and all creators to understand the director's intentions, understand the script content, and re-create.
Fang Xiang heard this and immediately replied: "Yes, I have brought them all."
He made a lot of preparations before, and the best possible thing is naturally that Wang Yifan is willing to help re-edit, so he brought all the storyboard scripts here.
Not only did he bring a copy of the first version of the video.
Wang Yifan didn't expect that Fang Xiang had prepared quite well.
Then start playing the first version, that is, the love version.
The male lead in "Kidnapping" was not changed, which made Wang Yifan feel very novel. The main reason is that this male actor is really good. Although the plot of this "Kidnapping" has been played badly, the acting skills of the male and female protagonists are definitely online, especially the male lead.
"Who is he?" Wang Yifan asked curiously.
"Feng Bin!" Fang Xiang said.
Feng Bin is the most unexpected thing for Wang Yifan to discover that he played the role of his father before, while in this version he played the role of his boyfriend, but he did not feel any distorted.
This time, the character of Feng Bin's role is different from before. Well, it's mainly a young and domineering president and an old father who is extremely successful in business. The two characters are of different ages and different ways of expressing their feelings, but Feng Bin both controls this very well. This is what surprised Wang Yifan.
In fact, the version of the domineering president saving his girlfriend is indeed better than the version of the father and daughter, but it is only relatively speaking.
Overall, you can't say that this movie is wrong, you can only say that it's too mediocre, but the key to the problem is that it's too mediocre. Why do you attract audiences to buy tickets to watch the movie?
Movie tickets are not cheap, and for distribution companies, there are no famous stars in this movie, and the plot of the movie is mediocre. How could they be willing to pay for promotion and promotion?
The plot this time is probably the cold war between the male and female protagonists, and then the female protagonist was angry and asked to break up with the male protagonist on the phone. Then she was kidnapped by kidnappers on the way back, using it to threaten the male protagonist to blackmail the male protagonist to extort a huge ransom.
Then, the male protagonist actually loves the female protagonist very much, and he started preparing for the ransom without saying a word. The subsequent plot is no different from the previous first part.
In general, it is... the script of this movie that Fang Xiang has a big problem.
In fact, looking at many bad movies, although the plot is bad, the key is that they have a bad level, so they often use a more special marketing method to publish, and the bad movies have good results.
Therefore, when a movie is difficult to find even the points that are criticized, this is the real sadness.
Obviously, Fang Xiang seemed to be because of the first movie, and he suppressed everything, so he retreated from the movie, filmed it in a regular manner, and edited it in a regular manner, but it turned out to be the most popular.
However, looking at the storyboard script, Wang Yifan scratched his head a little. Fang wanted to take too many materials.
Anyway, the storyboard scripts of Wang Yifan’s own movies are impossible to match Fang Yaobin. The materials he shoots are almost three times that of Wang Yifan’s usual movies.
When watching the storyboard script, the ones added later are almost the same as those in the previous ones. No wonder this movie cost more than 30 million, but there were no big-name stars who could show off. Their works were all really spent on production.
In fact, the movie has been played long ago, but Wang Yifan is still looking at Fang Xiang’s storyboard script.
But in my mind, I was thinking, thinking about whether there is any rescue in this movie.
Fang Xiang was restless, but he didn't dare to speak out, for fear of disturbing Wang Yifan, so Xu Cang gave Fang Xiang a look and told him to rest as he was a little restless.
But how could Fang Xiang really get quiet?
At this moment, Wang Yifan suddenly closed the thick storyboard script booklet, raised his head, looked at Fang Xiang with a smile, and said, "Does Director Fang want to cooperate or sell this project directly?"
