Chapter 88 Style is very important (fourth more)
After Lin Yi listened to the old man's introduction, he asked Xue Cheng to ask him, what experience did he have?
The image of the other party is still in play.

However, Xue Cheng looked at the old man in front of him with some awe.

"Sir, shouldn't we have met?"

"Well, what? You've seen me perform..."

The old man squinted his eyes and rubbed his chin in thought.

"It's hard, I should have seen you on the set."

Xue Cheng remembered something, and immediately asked.

"Studios? I don't go there very often, and I'm not an old artist. I'm just a guy waiting to die."

The old man coughed, slapped his back and said, "You see, the old man has been standing for a long time and his back is not good. Why don't you ask me to carry a chair?"

Seeing this, Secretary Jin hurried up and handed him a chair for him to sit down.

The old man smiled and said thank you, then raised his head and said, "By the way, what kind of movie are you going to make?"

"Well, a drama that satirizes reality!"

Xue Cheng didn't want to tell the truth, he also wanted to save some face.

"A feature film? From that era? Contemporary, or modern!"

The old man squinted his eyes and looked at Xue Cheng, feeling that his words were not sincere.

"Is it nowadays? There will be some comedy, and maybe some exaggeration..."

Xue Cheng was about to make up a few high-sounding excuses, but he heard Lin Yi explain in the headset, "No, you tell him, we are going to make a pseudo-documentary. Yes, it is the kind of literary film similar to a documentary in foreign countries. Watch "The Big Short" Have you been? Talk about the CI loan crisis!"

Ji Dong's words reminded Xue Cheng, but how did he get in touch?

Therefore, the expression is a little distorted.

Before he could explain further, the old man waved his hand and said, "You should ask the boss behind you to come out and talk to me in person?"

He actually saw that there was another boss behind Xue Cheng who was monitoring the scene.

"This, isn't it convenient?"

"No, it's nothing inconvenient!"

Ji Dong's voice came from the door.

He opened the door and walked in.

Looking at the nitpicking old man in front of him, he smiled.

"Mr. Hu, you came really fast! Thank you for your hard work!"

Mr. Hu! ?

Secretary Jin and the others were a little surprised.

Xue Cheng seemed to remember it too.

The Fang family hired an art consultant, who is said to be an old professor from the Film Academy, but unfortunately he doesn't usually show up, and he hasn't seen him a few times.

It was him.

How did this happen?
The old man in front of him was exposed by Ji Dong, but he no longer pretended to be.

Instead, he stood up straight and looked at Ji Dong calmly.

"Very well, no wonder they said you are a bit unusual. You can see who I am so quickly?"

Then he sighed and said, "I won't talk nonsense. This time Fang Sheng asked me to help you, but I don't really want to come. Because I think you may be messing around!"

What he said was obviously about Lin Yi going to win an international award.

Was it just nonsense?
There's nothing wrong with that.

"Whether you're fooling around or not, you'll know after the filming. Mr. Hu, what else do you want to ask?"

Under Lin Yi's neither humble nor overbearing attitude, Mr. Hu said again: "Then tell me, what kind of story do you plan to film?"

Speaking of this, Xue Cheng was embarrassed.

I'm afraid that Mr. Hu will scold him to death if he wants to shoot something, right?

Shenhao's corrupt life?
A drunken life, a wine pool and a forest?
Are you thinking about farting!

However, Ji Dong was very calm and steady.

"I want to make one, similar to the story of the big short, about the disintegration of an empire. The story starts with a Shenhao who just inherited the family business and doesn't know anything..."

He started to paint big cakes, talking nonsense in a serious manner.

Only when people are driven to a dead end can they have motivation.

The appearance of Mr. Hu obviously stimulated Ji Yi.

I have to pursue something, I am really making a literary film.

When he was talking about a script that he didn't even believe in, Mr. Hu's eyes were actually shining.

Fake documentary!

plus sensitive subjects.

There is also a society that satirizes money worshipers.

Boy, you're pretty self-deprecating.

Hu Lao suddenly laughed.

"Do you dare to film it in black and white?"

He felt that the use of black and white films seemed to reveal more irony.

"Why not? We make most of the scenes black and white, but the pig's feet are in color, and there are certain scenes that suddenly have color, which is more ironic."

After watching movies for many years, don’t you know how to talk if you don’t understand?

Ji Dong couldn't stop anymore, and began to flicker endlessly.

From film narrative techniques, to montage techniques, and script deconstruction, it’s all about being fooled if you can, there’s nothing too strange about it.

Although Mr. Hu frowned from time to time, he seemed to feel Lin Yi's serious heart.

At least, he didn't want to make a lot of money and just leave.

But a man with ideas.

"So, your idea is the perfect combination of business and art, which can be understood and loved by the public, but not too vulgar and lose certain qualities."

The old man nodded, as if he meant what he said.

There used to be quite a few literary films in China, but they were too highbrow.

It has become divorced from the masses and is overly flattering the West.

What to do is to be close to the things of the new era.

Why do you have to kneel down to earn money, when you can earn money back standing up.

Ji Dong's self-confidence gave Mr. Hu some ideas.

Although it is not very optimistic, at least I can feel Ji Dong's momentum.

So, he wanted to stay and be an art consultant.

For example, to help the film grasp the general direction, even if the filming is not very good, it can also give it a certain style.

Ji Dong didn't say anything, it's always good to have an extra helper.

So, I shook hands with Mr. Hu and officially signed the old man.

The production crew conducted interviews in such a lively manner, and found another group of staff one after another.

At this time, they still lacked some film crews.

Although Xue Cheng is a pipe tool, he can also hold a mirror.

But he also needs professional equipment.

Lin Yi asked Secretary Jin how the things were prepared?

"Didn't the equipment be ordered a long time ago? They have all been delivered!"

"A batch came, but I returned it. The quality is not very good, and there is no state-of-the-art high-definition camera. I'm afraid it won't meet your requirements."

"No, I'll try the oldest film camera first."

Ji Dong wanted to create a heavy feeling in the shot, so he asked Xue Cheng to finish checking the equipment and start it first.

Facing my office and the office on the top floor, take a picture of the scene first.

I still use black and white film, let's see what effect it will have in this modern office building.

Ji Dong is not afraid of wasting film, the key is to experiment more.

He delegated power to two people, see what they can come up with?

After filming for a long time, I broadcast the recorded scenes to Lin Yi.

The black-and-white images, together with the silent film-like lens, make it boring to watch.

Such is the life of a day in the office.
