1342. To be grounded

To be honest, the film market in this world is very different from those in the previous life.

For example, comedy movies, the first movie that exceeded 1 billion in China in the previous life was a comedy movie, and later the endless comedy movies were rampant for a while.

But in this world, comedy movies have declined faster. In the past life, at least Stephen Chow's movies can occasionally extend their lives to comedy movies.

Although Mahua's comedies have not become the top movies, they are still considered hits.

However, in this world, because the top movies exploded faster and earlier, and the lack of iconic characters like Stephen Chow, comedy movies really declined.

Before, Lin Tao's Lin's comedy was supported, but after Lin Tao retired, the comedy movies that could be used on the market were really terrifying.

So Wang Yifan wanted to know if Fu Rong had any interesting ideas.

Fu Rong was obviously prepared for this.

Fu Rong pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, I think that when anything develops to a certain level, it will turn back, return to nature, or return to ordinary things!"

Wang Yifan refused to comment and signaled Fu Rong to continue.

Fu Rong thought for a while and said, "My idea is that online jokes, short videos, etc. can be said to have developed jokes to the fullest. It can be said that it is actually very difficult to innovate in a short period of time. This is also why comedy movies make the audience feel less and less funny."

"But these current online jokes or short videos actually have one characteristic, that is, they have a lot of brains, but in fact, they are not real! There is a lack of real atmosphere of life, and simply put, in fact, they are not down-to-earth!"

"Down-to-earth?" Wang Yifan looked at Fu Rong with interest.

Fu Rong nodded and said, "In fact, most of the comedy movies on the market are funny for the sake of being funny. In fact, in terms of the plot, there is a falsehood, which will cause the audience. This movie has no content at all, it is a collection of jokes. So, I think that if a comedy movie wants to make a breakthrough, it is best not to make a "acted" joke, but to integrate into life and into the plot!"

"Papapapapapapa!" Wang Yifan couldn't help but applaud.

Fu Rong's idea is still very interesting.

In fact, it is true. Of course, what he said is not the only way.

In fact, you can say that the way of expression of comedy has been used up, but as far as Wang Yifan knows, the Chaplin-style comedy in his previous life, the Stephen Chow-style comedy, etc. have not appeared in this world.

Of course, if you want to develop new comedy expressions, take nonsense as an example. In fact, there are also many expressions.

But it is definitely more difficult to develop new comedy performances and expression methods.

But similarly, the comedy that Fu Rong said about returning to nature and returning to nature, and the down-to-earth comedy are not so easy to develop.

The former requires comedy talent actors, while the latter script is the same key as the actors.

"Since you know and think that down-to-earth comedy will be the key to the next comedy movie, why didn't you try it?" Wang Yifan asked with a smile.

Fu Rong smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, everyone understands the truth, such as down-to-earth comedy, but such movies require suitable actors and a good script, because since you have to naturally incorporate funny points into the plot instead of making fun of it, the script is quite critical, but it is hard to cook without rice. At present, I have not found a suitable script for this kind of script!"

Wang Yifan couldn't help but smile.

"What about the schedule of comedy movies? When do you think the schedule of comedy movies is the best?" Wang Yifan asked with a smile again.

Fu Rong was stunned for a moment and then said, "Actually, there is no best schedule for comedy movies, because as long as they are popular schedules, comedy movies can have a place. Of course, it depends on the subject matter. If you insist on talking about the schedule that is most suitable for comedy movies, it must be the Spring Festival period. After all, the Spring Festival period is the most different for us in China."

Wang Yifan nodded.

This is true. Comedy movies are the least picky about schedules.

After all, movies are the product of entertainment, and are intended to entertain the public.

For some feature films, especially tragedies or tearjersey dramas, they usually do not choose schedules such as the Spring Festival or New Year holidays.

Because of the original prosperous and festive schedule, such movies will be out of place.

But on the contrary, comedy movies, at any time, aren't it bad to make you laugh, right?

"I have a story here, but this story will be more difficult to find actors in need!" Wang Yifan said with a smile.

Fu Rong's eyes suddenly lit up.

So, did you pass the assessment?

Dai Xinyue nodded with satisfaction.

Although the cooperation between Wang Yifan and Times Light and Shadow is the key to the negotiation content between the two parties, this kind of thing also depends on what Wang Yifan himself thinks.

If Wang Yifan doesn't like Fu Rong, or if Fu Rong cannot satisfy Wang Yifan, then it will probably take a long time to replace him.

After all, Wang Yifan is not a big idle person.

On the contrary, Wang Yifan also has the first superhero movie in the Marvel series to be filmed.

To be honest, whether Dai Xinyue or Fu Rong, they are full of confidence. There is no way, Wang Yifan has a reputation, so they are all made from movies.

In fact, everyone knows that compared to the movies directed by Wang Yifan, his screenwriter skills are more surprising.

After all, it would be nice to have one movie directed by Wang Yifan every year, but the scripts he published are the same with the best quality resources. Haven’t you seen that the new directors of Huaxin were all fed by Wang Yifan using the scripts?

"Can Director Wang ask you to tell this story?" Fu Rong said excitedly.

"Of course it's OK."

"The Spring Festival is approaching, and Li Chenggong, the boss of the toy group, is going back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year. At the same time, under the pressure of his lover Manni, he is preparing to divorce his wife after the New Year." Wang Yifan began to tell the story of "Lost in the Road".

"Lost in the Road" can be said to be the most down-to-earth film in the Hug series.

To be honest, in terms of completion, in Wang Yifan's opinion, "Lost in Thailand" is much higher than the later "Lost in Thailand" and "Lost in Hong Kong".

Of course, "Lost in the Road" is indeed too down-to-earth, and it appeared first and has not yet formed an IP, so the box office is not that exaggerated.

But among the few hinny series, Wang Yifan personally, his favorite is still the pioneering work of this "hinny" series.
