The Director of Music Department

In fact, there were a few of them in the previous life, which were regarded as ceiling movies of domestic thrillers.

For example, "Master of Hypnotism", but this movie is classified as a thriller, which is actually a bit far-fetched. Really, this movie should be classified as a suspenseful movie.

In fact, to a certain extent, the things used in "The Master of Hypnotism", to put it bluntly, are similar to those of Fang Xiongfei and others.

But it has technicalized the original supernatural elements.

Hypnosis, psychiatrists and other elements in this area are themselves mysterious things, especially for ordinary people.

But at the same time, these things can perfectly explain some abnormal phenomena.

For example, if a person does something that he would never do before, such as murder, crime, etc., in fact, it does not necessarily have to be explained by supernatural or supernatural phenomena. Hypnosis is actually a very good story logic technique.

Of course, "Master of Hypnotism" is not a perfect movie, and it can even be said that this movie can only be regarded as full of sincerity.

But for domestic films, sincerity is actually very rare.

In fact, "Master of Hypnotism" also has a lot of imitation marks. There have been many movies similar to "Master of Hypnotism" in Hollywood earlier.

The most classic is "Small Island", and later "Air Crash Passengers"!

Although "Master of Hypnotism" has traces of imitation, as far as domestic thrillers are concerned, it is actually considered a good movie.

As far as Fang Xiongfei is concerned, asking him to shoot "The Master of Hypnotism" is honest enough.

Because in fact, the core of "Master of Hypnotism" is suspense, not horror.

Moreover, "Master of Hypnotism" also has relatively high requirements for actors. Although Wang Yifan's fame does not worry about actors, Wang Yifan is a little worried that it will backfire.

So, after much deliberation, whether or not "Master of Hypnotism" was dropped in the end!

Fang Xiongfei was very anxious, Wang Yifan did not speak for a long time, which made him feel extremely tormented.

My mind is also in a mess, is it because I have acted too much just now?

Or what made Director Wang Yifan dissatisfied?

After a long time, Wang Yifan smiled and said, "Sorry, I was just thinking about the script."

Hearing Wang Yifan's words, Fang Xiongfei was very happy even if he was a young man.

"Has Director Fang ever made that kind of film, how should I say it? An infinite loop movie?" Wang Yifan asked with a smile.

Hearing the infinite loop, Fang Xiongfei was a little dazed.

He shook his head and smiled wryly: "Director Wang, you may not know our industry very well. The cost of each film is very limited for us, and the time is very tight. Most of the time, the scripts are not even ready-made. They are all produced on the spot. It is written on the spot and adjusted on the spot, so most of the time, the plots are the same..."

"However, I have seen infinitely looping movies, such as the more famous "One Day" in Hollywood. The one is a ghost, because of the tragic death, after she became a resentful soul, she gained the ability to let people go through the process of her being killed..."

Fang Xiongfei hurriedly continued, fearing that because he had never made such a movie, Wang Yifan would change his mind.

"Xu Mei is a single mother!" Wang Yifan actually thought of "Horror Cruise" just now, but the story and the movie were originally made abroad, so he had to make magic changes.

So, I thought about it for a while.

Fortunately, now he just needs to say a rough idea.

Fang Xiongfei listened carefully, although he was still confused at the moment.

Dai Xinyue also listened carefully from the side. In fact, Fang Xiongfei could be said to be the one who made up the numbers among the three.

Yes, from Dai Xinyue's point of view, it's just making up the numbers, because horror movies in China, to be honest, are really too difficult.

Moreover, there has never been any top blockbuster. For other small companies, it may be good for a small-budget film with a box office of several million or tens of millions.

But for Times Light and Shadow, what they lack is not this kind of movie, what they really lack is a big director who can take the lead.

As for why Fang Xiongfei was chosen, it was actually a reward.

Don't think that Fang Xiongfei may earn hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars when he makes a movie, but this is the output of a movie.

You must know that the sunk cost of operating theater chains is very high in many cases.

First of all, theater chains provide movie theaters with a fixed number of shows per day most of the time, and some of these film sources are big sellers, and some are not.

There is also free time, and popular time.

The prime time is naturally no problem, and its theaters can be used to the greatest extent.

But those non-prime hours are a waste.

For example, the midnight show, in fact, there are still quite a few people watching movies at midnight, but many movies are not suitable for the midnight show.

Therefore, directors like Fang Xiongfei and others are very important. Although their films have been complained about, they have gradually become synonymous with bad films.

And it is not accepted by the mainstream film industry, but the films made by them solve the biggest problem of the theater chain, not only can bring audiences to midnight shows, reduce operating cost pressure, but also bring profits.

Even if these profits may not be enough compared to the hundreds of millions that Wang Yifan can earn for a movie, they are still the way for theaters to survive.

But people go to high places and water flows to low places. Don’t look at these movies, it seems that the cost is not high. Maybe a movie costs hundreds of thousands, and it seems that they are all bad movies.

But it doesn't mean that bad movies don't pay attention. In fact, among these movies, there are good and bad, and the box office is also high and low.

At the same time, making a movie, whether you can control the cost well, and whether you can complete it on time, is also a big difference.

Fang Xiongfei is undoubtedly the best in this aspect, even if the movies he made are not good enough, but at least, compared to other movies of the same type, they are much better.

Moreover, many fringe directors like Fang Xiongfei actually have no expectations. Most of the time, such directors have the highest mobility.

Because, in fact, although these directors themselves make a lot of money, they don't have any professional expectations.

Even the status is not as good as that of the advertising director.

Therefore, those who are capable, most of the time, will leave quickly.

Therefore, if Fang Xiongfei can stand out, it can be regarded as pointing out a way, a broad way, for these fringe directors.

Of course, Dai Xinyue also knows that it is really impossible and too difficult for a director like Fang Xiongfei to become a great director.

But what if?

And even if you can't become a great director, even if you are a well-known director, that is a very good role model, isn't it?
