My movie scared the global audience to tears

Song Qi saw Masao Nome in the reception room. The man was flipping through the brochure of Miracle Films with great interest.

It was a booklet written by Xiao Ran to introduce Miracle Film and Television. It recorded the history of Miracle Film and Television from its establishment to the present, introduced Song Qi's history of struggle as the founder, and the current business scope of Miracle Film and Television.

Seeing Song Qi, Masao Nome stood up with a smile and bowed slightly: "Mr. Song, please excuse me."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Nome, there was something delayed on the way. I kept you waiting for a long time. Please take a seat!"

Song Qi smiled and stepped forward, shook hands with him, and invited him to sit down: "I didn't see you at the last industry meeting. I also said I would visit you when I was free, but I didn't expect you to come to me first."

"We are destined to come thousands of miles to meet you!"

Nome Masao smiled and said: "I have wanted to meet you for a long time. I happened to be in the capital this time for something, so I stopped by to see you and chat with you."

"Welcome! I have always wanted to learn from you!"

The assistant brought the tea to Song Qi. Song Qi was not thirsty, so he put it aside temporarily and asked with a smile: "Mr. Nome, your monster series is also a classic series of traditional horror movies. Why haven't you made another one in the past few years?"

?”

"For some special reasons."

Nome Masao did not explain too much, but brought the topic back to Song Qi: "Mr. Song, I have a question to ask."

"Don't be afraid to ask for advice, just ask! I will definitely tell you everything I know."

Song Qi nodded seriously.

Nome Masao looked a little more serious: "I want to ask, what do you think of the future of traditional horror movies?"

Song Qi was stunned, a little unsure of what he meant.

"What do you want to ask about?"

Song Qi asked back.

Nome Masao calmly added: "It is about the development of traditional horror movie themes. How to innovate based on the current situation? I want to hear your opinion."

Hearing this question, Song Qi pondered deeply and did not answer immediately.

Although this question is about film creation, it is actually about red lines in review.

It was the first time Masao Nome met him, so why did he ask such a question right away?

Considering that Masao Nome is a member of the Board of Directors of the Filmmakers Association, Song Qi thought for a while and replied seriously: "I think "Mr. Zombie" is an example of innovation in themes. Traditional horror movies do not need to be limited to horror and thriller.

If you are competing within the scope, you can try to integrate other elements and seek innovation and change.

Just like the comedy segment in "Mr. Zombie", the audience's acceptance is very high, which shows that this is a model that can be developed. I think that traditional horror movies can try to change in this direction, and there should be gains."

Masao Nome listened carefully, nodding from time to time, and after Song Qi finished speaking, he asked seriously: "In that case, will a horror movie that is no longer scary still be a horror movie?"

"..."

Song Qi thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Of course there are pure horror movies, but if you blindly pursue the taste of pure horror movies, then traditional horror movies will definitely be defeated by new horror movies."

"What if we use the core of traditional themes and combine it with a modern background?" Masao Nome showed a smile.

Song Qi was stunned for a moment and then became happy: "Are you trying to challenge the review red line?"

"Isn't it possible?"

Masao Nome looked serious: "The times are progressing, and no rules are dead. They all have to change with the times! Wasn't the film rating system only introduced more than ten years ago? Why are there review standards for horror movies?

, are you still stuck a few decades ago?”

Song Qi heard this and asked thoughtfully: "You mean, you want to abolish the censorship system for horror movies?"

"That's not true."

Nome Masao shook his head: "There are still necessary reviews, but the review standards can be relaxed a little."

"I agree with this."

Song Qi smiled and said: "You can propose this initiative at next year's industry conference, and I will definitely support you."

Nome Masao also smiled, but his smile was a little weird: "I may not have this chance."

"Why?"

Song Qi was puzzled: "Are you going to quit the council?"

Nome Masao opened his mouth, then suddenly his body trembled, and then he arched his back, his face turned pale, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.

"What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"

Song Qi saw that something was wrong with his appearance and asked doubtfully.

Masao Nome shook his head, with slightly trembling hands, he took out a medicine bottle from his arms, poured a few pills out of it, and drank it with the warm water in the cup.

Then, he sat on a chair, pressed his fist on the upper right side of his abdomen, and gritted his teeth to hold in his breath.

Song Qi looked at him in surprise, wondering what he was up to.

Is this Masao Nome a drug addict?

After about five minutes, Nome Masao slowly recovered.

"Sorry, did I scare you?"

Nome Masao twitched the corner of his mouth, showed an ugly smile, pointed to the medicine bottle in his hand and said: "Painkillers are used to relieve pain. I have liver cancer. It is in the advanced stage. There is no cure. I can only take medicine to relieve it."

"Advanced stage of liver cancer?"

Song Qi was surprised: "How could it be? This..."

He was a little confused. He never expected that the person sitting in front of him was actually a dying man.

Nome Masao recovered a lot, took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat, and explained with a smile: "I was diagnosed two years ago and had an operation. When I was examined again a few months ago, it recurred and the cancer cells had spread.

The doctor said I have at most one year to live."

"I see."

Song Qi looked at him with complicated eyes and asked, "Is it because you were sick that you didn't go to the industry meeting before?"

"yes."

Masao Nome admitted frankly.

"It's so unpredictable!"

Song Qi couldn't help but sigh, and then asked: "Is there no other way? Isn't chemotherapy also good?"

"My body can no longer withstand the chemotherapy."

Nome Masao smiled and shook his head: "And I don't want to spend the last period of my life torturing myself until I don't look like a human being or a ghost like a ghost."

After that, he looked at Song Qi and his expression became serious again: "Changing the horror movie review system has always been a wish of mine. Unfortunately, I may not be able to see that day coming, but you can. This is also my wish.

The main reason for coming to you."

"I?"

Song Qi was a little surprised.

"That's right."

Nome Masao sighed: "There are too few talents in the category of horror movies. Without good directors, there will be no good movies. Without good movies, there will be no audience. If they cannot sell the box office, good directors will not be willing to do it."

I came here and fell into an endless loop... But! There is no end to the road, and you showed up!"

He looked at Song Qi and his eyes brightened: "I have been following you since you were filming "Jaws". I watched you take off like a rocket and become a shining star in the industry.

Even if you gather the aura of an entire industry, you may not be able to cultivate a genius like you.

I had some doubts at first, but after watching "Mr. Zombie", I am finally convinced that you are the future of horror movies!"
