713. "Dear"

Let’s look at the realistic themes and look at those successful realistic theme movies.

What actors are used?

Take "I Am Not a God of Medicine" as an example. This kind of movie, a new director, and a tool-oriented person, may not be able to make good movies.

Because there are many things involved, they will be out of control for a while.

And in terms of actors, which actors Wang Yifan uses can be controlled by a new director?

Wang Yifan is also considering that realistic movies, to be honest, are not suitable for launching too many movies at once, like other movies.

Because movies with realistic themes focus on reality, the production cycle of such movies is not short, mainly due to preliminary preparations.

For example, Wang Yifan has anti-trafficking themes and scripts. "Dear" is very good, and it can be regarded as the best among the domestic movies in previous lives and the best among the anti-trafficking theme movies.

And the reputation is very good.

But this movie doesn't mean that there are scripts and stories, and you can find a suitable director and actors to shoot it.

Not that simple.

First of all, both directors and actors need a long time to prepare. For directors, it is a test of the director's ability to control the scale of the movie and the plot.

The realistic themes should take into account the authenticity of reality, and ensure the tension of the film and the conflicting plot.

At the same time, we must also consider that the differences between the previous life and this world need to be avoided.

As for the actors, who were the ones who played this movie in their previous lives? Huang Bo and Zhao Wei, to be honest, among the Chinese actors, even if these people are not the best in their acting skills, they are definitely the top-notch ones.

Even so, they need to experience, feel, investigate, etc. of the characters they want to play.

And the director is definitely not able to really shoot according to the script. The biggest difference between realistic movies and other movies is that when shooting other movies, the director can be a tool person and shoot the script as it writes.

But realistic movies are really not good!

"What suggestions do you have?" Wang Yifan asked.

Chen Hanming pondered for a moment and said, "First of all, I want to know, this time, are you going to come up with the story yourself, and then choose a director, or let the director bring his own project?"

Wang Yifan frowned and asked, "How about I come up with the story myself? So what about the director bringing his own project?"

"If you make your own story script, of course it's much simpler. Just choose the right director. In fact, this is no different from the previous new star director plan. The only difference is probably the person who screens out from new people to all directors. If the director is asked to bring his own project, then another problem is involved, that is, the prospects of the project. After all, now everyone knows that your project is the best quality, but others may not be the case." Chen Hanming smiled and flattered.

"Let's go in two ways!" Wang Yifan thought for a while and said.

"Okay, then how do you plan to announce this matter?" Chen Hanming asked.

"This time I will treat it as a supplement to the new star director's plan. Don't hold any press conferences. It's not too late to choose when the movie starts filming." Wang Yifan thought for a while. To be honest, many realistic movies are more sensitive and are not suitable for excessive publicity like other movies.

For example, movies like "Dear" are actually not easy to do much publicity in the early stage, and at most they can explain why they need to make such movies.

Because this subject itself is quite heavy.

After returning, Wang Yifan originally thought that he could write "Dear" quickly, but soon he found that writing the story was simple, but many details were difficult.

Moreover, movies with the theme of "Dear" and movies with the realistic theme are not suitable for finding a screenwriter team to fill in as before.

Because this is a movie with realistic themes, many things are not suitable for commercial dialogue.

It was late at night and Wang Yifan stopped his work. He wrote the outline of the story script of "Dear", but in terms of details, although he had watched this movie in his previous life, and when he watched it, he felt heavy, but now he was asked to think about those details, he couldn't think of them well, or he barely wrote them out, and he felt that it was difficult to have the feeling of his previous life.

Some things can only be experienced by people and experienced by themselves.

"Dear" is a story about anti-trafficking, but in fact, there have been many anti-trafficking themes and lost orphans in China in the past life. But why is "Dear" the most accomplished?

Because this story is not just a story about anti-trafficking.

In his previous life, Wang Yifan remembered that the script "Dear" was adapted by the screenwriter based on a "anti-trafficking" news from CCTV in his early years. It tells the story of a couple whose son became their only connection because of a bad relationship. However, one day, the child was inexplicably lost.

There is actually no big difference between the previous one and many anti-trafficking movies and stories, it is that the child is lost.

The story that follows is that the couple is trying hard to find their children. On the way, they meet many parents who look for their children like themselves, and many shocking things happen.

Although many of these are shocking and real, what it feels like to lose a child? I think no parent is willing to experience it, but this story shows all these.

But simply from the perspective of movies, such plots are not uncommon.

The most special thing about "Dear" is that it changes the traditional drama structure. The first half of the script tells a story of finding a child that is lost and regained, and the key lies in the second half of the script, because the plot in the second half does not simply tell the story of finding a child that is lost and regained, but changes to a different perspective and tells a story of gain and regained.

This has caused a controversy.

Because of the second half of the story, the abducted child and the trafficker's wife were raised as her biological son. She fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother to the child and gave him enough maternal love.

But the child is always someone else's, and she is the wife of a human trafficker.

Therefore, a contradiction and controversy have formed.

This is also the most unforgettable reason for this story.

Simply the story of losing and regaining again is not uncommon, but this kind of loss from losing and regaining again and again, coupled with the special identity, causes contradictions.

This is the most exciting and heaviest part of this story.

In fact, in reality, there are fewer such examples, more common families who buy children from outside.

They care for their children incredibly, but the fact is that they can also be regarded as accomplices of human traffickers. There is no harm without a business.

This is what happens most in reality.

This kind of contradiction and this kind of conflict brings more thought to people than those simple harms!
