He Just Acted As A Dead Man, How Did He Become A Best Actor?

"Brother Han, what's the matter?" Lin Beifan said straight to the point.

The two have worked together many times and are very familiar with each other. They are still good friends in private, so Lin Beifan is not polite at all.

A hearty laugh came from the phone: "Brother, I heard that you are planning to make movies and TV series again. The entire entertainment industry has become a sensation. The film will definitely be a hit again. Congratulations in advance, brother!"

Lin Beifan said with a smile: "Everyone is cheering for us, everyone is adding fuel to the flames!"

"That's it...it's easier to travel when you have more friends! No, there's another task from above. We need to shoot 5 short films and combine them into one movie for release. Didn't I think of you? ?"

Lin Beifan was immediately speechless.

It turned out to be a political mission.

A bit thankless for him - OK.

The requirements are high and the work is hard, but the final benefit has nothing to do with him.

The only benefit may be to improve your political status and increase your popularity.

However, he no longer needs these things.

Lin Beifan politely refused: "Brother, I have a lot of dramas to shoot today and I can't spare the time..."

"Don't fool me, don't I know you?"

A disdainful voice came from the phone: "You provide a script, then choose a director and actors and then you can film it. It doesn't take anything at all. It's not a problem to have several crews at the same time!"

Lin Beifan: “…….

"In the final analysis, you are still lazy and don't want to work!"

Lin Beifan:

"Originally, I wanted to invite Mr. Sun, but now he is busy filming "The Wandering Earth" and can't get away! He has been making movies for most of his life, and now this is my only wish.

I can't disturb him, right?" 1

Lin Beifan nodded, expressing understanding.

"Mr. Sun can't come anymore. If you don't come again, I won't know what to do! The movie is not popular. If no one watches it, the higher-ups won't be satisfied! Brother, just do me a favor!"

Okay, that’s what it’s all about. Even if you don’t want to help, you have to help.

"Okay, I'll take this job. What kind of movie is it?"

Chairman Han Xiong said happily: "Thank you, brother! What we are planning to make is a movie about the feelings of family and country, that is, a patriotic movie! Tell patriotic stories through the perspective of ordinary people!"

"The movie is called "My Country and Me" and it is going to be released on National Day. It can be regarded as a gift to the country!"

Lin Beifan listened and secretly felt happy.

Fortunately, their "The Wandering Earth" has been filmed in advance and is ready to be released in the summer.

Otherwise, it will be a collision with this movie.

Although, he is very confident in his film.

But when it comes to national power, there is no use having confidence, and the box office will inevitably be affected.

"Okay, I understand!" Lin Beifan nodded.

"Brother, I'm just telling you in advance so that you can prepare in advance. The document hasn't been issued yet, so don't make any announcements yet! After the official document comes out, we will discuss it again, everyone!"

"Okay, I understand!" Lin Beifan nodded again.

After chatting for a few more words, both parties hung up the phone.

Lin Beifan couldn't help but fall into deep thought, what kind of movie is better.

First, the duration cannot exceed 40 minutes.

Second, we need to be down-to-earth and tell patriotic stories about ordinary people.

It seems that there are not many requirements, but in fact there are many restrictions.

The scene cannot exceed 40 minutes, which is too little time. Many stories cannot be developed and there is not enough foreshadowing.

It is not easy at all to bring everyone into the drama within 40 minutes.

Secondly, we need to shoot patriotic stories about ordinary people.

Everyone understands and knows how to be patriotic, but it’s hard to know how to measure it.

If you don't shoot it well, it will become very embarrassing and fake.

Finally, there is another potential requirement for movies, that is, the story must be novel.

After so many years of filming, patriotic movies have long been cliche movies, with similar cores and similar stories. Many people are tired of watching them and don’t want to watch them anymore.

Therefore, it is necessary to create new ideas in order to attract attention.

At this moment, a short film from a previous life came to mind.

"Escape from the British Museum"!

This is a short story, with a total of three episodes, each episode is only about 10 minutes.

It tells the story of a lovely overseas cultural relic who escaped back to his country with the help of a reporter.

Although the film is short, the story and angle are very novel. It is full of feelings about home and country, showing the patriotic enthusiasm of the younger generation.

At that time, Lin Beifan was moved when he saw it.

Now that I have the chance, I want to bring it to the big screen.

"Although this short film is good, the story line is too thin, and there are only two people going back and forth! It is not exciting enough, and the plot tension is not enough, so it must be changed!"

Thinking of this, Lin Beifan immediately changed his mind.

It retains the main line of the story, but makes the pace fast and exciting, making it full of movie texture.

After a week of this, the document that Chairman Han Xiong mentioned was finally issued, causing a sensation in the entire entertainment industry.

"There is another political movie, this time it is about patriotism, and it is going to be released on the National Day schedule!"

"It seems to be a big movie, I must support it!"

"Yes, there is no lack of box office and traffic for political movies. Whoever plays a popular movie will be considered a success if he shows his face!"

"I just want to know now, which lucky director was chosen?"

Everyone immediately turned to the back and saw five household names on the director list.

Among them, the three words "Lin Beifan" are prominently listed.

He is not the director, but he is the person in charge of one of the films.

Everyone was surprised and felt it was reasonable.

After all, Lin Beifan's abilities and achievements are obvious to all.

Last year, when I made my first political film, I created a classic movie "Country Teacher" and created an alien character who is popular all over the world.

How could Han Xiong leave him behind?

"I wasn't interested in this movie at first, but I became interested as soon as I saw my brother!"

"Yes, his movies are always highly anticipated!"

“Not only is the quality guaranteed, but the angle is so tricky that everyone watching it will be hooked!”

"I watched last year's "Country Teacher" a few more times, hehe!"

"I wonder how he plans to shoot this time this year?"

With everyone's attention, Xia Film Group held a briefing meeting and invited five film directors to participate.

The four great directors gathered here and Lin Beifan.

Director Ma Chunhua is also here.

Since she has made two blockbuster movies in a row and won the Best Director Award last year, she has been given the opportunity to make political films. This is the country's recognition of her.

So since entering the venue, I have been smiling from ear to ear.

…Please give me flowers…

After a while, Chairman Han Xiong came.

He glanced at everyone present and said with a smile: "We are all acquaintances, so I won't talk nonsense! The reason for holding this meeting is to let everyone know how to film the movie "My Country and Me". So beautiful!"

Then, Han Xiong stated the specific requirements of the film.

In fact, everyone has known about this situation for a long time, but we still have to go through a formality and make a record.

"The total funding for our film is the same as last year, about 100 million, and each director has 20 million! In the end, it depends on everyone's needs, and we will adjust to each other, and we will refund more and supplement less!"

"As for the chief director of the film, he is Director Tian Zhou!"

Having said this, Han Xiong turned to the gray-haired old man next to him and said politely: "This movie is very important. Please pay more attention to it!"

This old man is director Tian Zhou, who is of the same generation as Sun Shan.

Both in terms of qualifications and strength, they are among the top in the country.

It's just that because he is older, he does less filming, but no one dares to ignore him.

Director Tian Zhou nodded solemnly: "No problem!"

Finally, Han Xiong also emphasized.

"Our movie will be released during the National Day in October as a gift to the motherland! It is currently mid-February, and there are still 7 months before the National Day, so the time is still quite tight!"

"So, I hope you will start filming after you go back! The script will be submitted for review before the end of February, and filming will start in early March [it is best to hand over the film before September!"

"Actually, I don't think it's so troublesome!" An old voice interrupted.

Han Xiong looked over and said in confusion: "Director Tian, ​​why do you say that?"

Director Tian Zhou said with a smile: "I have just communicated with several other directors and found that everyone is already prepared and the script has been produced. Why not review it now to save time!"

"Really?" Han Xiong laughed.

Everyone smiled and nodded, very confident.

Han Xiong had no doubts at all, because he had already been angry with everyone.

Everyone has a week to prepare.

Each of them has a lot of resources behind them. They know dozens of screenwriters, and some of them can also write scripts. It is not difficult to come up with a script.

"In that case, let's start the trial now!"

Everyone handed over the script, and after making a dozen copies, they reviewed and read each other.

After Lin Beifan got the other four scripts, he read them carefully.

I have to say that the picture directors are all very capable.

He saw a script that told the story of an ordinary climber who wanted to climb Mount Everest and put a national flag sewn by his daughter on Mount Everest.

He also saw a script about an ordinary person who left his hometown to do business in Africa. As a result, he encountered a local rebellion and was saved because of the Chinese symbol on his body.

He also saw a script that told the story of a poverty alleviation worker who took root at the grassroots level and quietly contributed to the country.

Every story is unique and refreshing.

Although it hasn't been filmed yet, Gong is already thinking about it.

However, when Lin Beifan admired other directors, other directors also looked at him from time to time, their eyes full of surprise. .
