Back in the capital, Lin Zixuan received a call from Zhang Yimou, who told him that the script of "Living" had passed the review. △↗,.

In China, if you want to shoot a movie, you must first submit the script summary or complete script to the General Administration for filing. After review, the movie that agrees to be filmed will be issued with the "Film Script (Summary) Filing Receipt" and "Film Filmmaking License".

Only by having a license from the General Administration can you shoot a movie, otherwise it will be filmed in violation of regulations and will be treated as a banned film.

After the filming of the film is completed, the film must be submitted for review. Only when the film passes the final review can it be arranged to be screened in the theater.

This is the formal process that a movie needs to go through.

The script is relatively easy. The script is just a literal description and is far less intuitive than the image.

As long as you carefully avoid some sensitive areas, there is a great possibility of passing. Writers are good at playing word games. If the same thing is expressed in different ways, it will give people a completely different feeling.

However, once the script is shot into images, those word games will be useless.

Furthermore, some directors like to modify scripts during filming, and the final film may be very different from the original script, or even two stories with different meanings.

Therefore, the final review of the film is the key, and it will determine whether the film can be released.

No matter what, Lin Zixuan still admires Zhang Yimou. He has revised the script many times and is very clear about how difficult it is to make such a sensitive subject pass the review.

"Living" is adapted from a novel into a movie. There is no trick to use this. It does not mean that you can pass the script summary with a few thousand words. People from the General Administration know what kind of story "Living" is.

In other words, Zhang Yimou had to come up with a complete script and explain the script to convince those in the General Administration.

This is not only a matter of the script, but also involves whether you have the ability to make the General Administration compromise and concessions.

In China, perhaps only the great director Zhang Yimou can get a filming license for "Alive".

Taking Jiang Wen as an example, you can understand the hardships.

As soon as Jiang Wen returned to China, he was excited to prepare for his first movie. He was not Zhang Yimou, and if he couldn't say anything, he would attract a lot of investment. He wanted to try a regular path first.

In Beijing, the Beijing Film Studio specializes in filming feature films and is the boss of the Beijing film and television industry. When Lin Zixuan and Feng Xiaogang wrote the script of "The Great Saba", they asked someone to send the script to the Beijing Film Studio.

Jiang Wen is also a first-line male actor in China, and he knows many leaders of Beijing Film Studio.

He submitted the script of "Sunny Days". When people saw the background and rough story of the book, they returned it. They did not make such movies, and did not even mention the comments on the modification.

Jiang Wen wants to show the entire magnificent era through a growth story of adolescence.

His heart is too wild and manifested too clearly. Others can tell at a glance that if he just wrote a love story about adolescence, he might have tricked the investment first.

The main reason is that Jiang Wen was a little proud at this time and didn't want to play those tricks, so he could do whatever he wanted.

If this road cannot be done, then you can only invest and follow the path of co-production films.

This involves the China Film Cooperative Production Company, which is entrusted by the state film authority to be responsible for the management, coordination and service of Sino-foreign film production.

As long as overseas funds want to enter the domestic film market through formal channels, they need to contact this company.

They will contact overseas investment companies and recommend excellent domestic film projects to match the situation.

Jiang Wen submitted the script to the China Film Cooperative Production Company. After reading the script, he did not refuse, but asked to modify the script. Otherwise, it would be difficult to pass the review and obtain a filming license.

In Lin Zixuan's opinion, Jiang Wen was too sharp.

He was eager to express his thoughts, but he didn't know how to compromise, or he was unwilling to compromise, so he was so willful.

Zhang Yimou is also willful. "Living" is more sensitive than the theme of "Sunny Days". He still tried every means to shoot it. The only difference is that he knows how to adapt than Jiang Wen.

During this year, they were all willful in shooting the movies they wanted to shoot.

Zhang Yimou has obtained the filming permission, and Jiang Wen is still revising the script in pain.

"I used to think that those scripts were really not very good when I was filming. If I wrote them, it would be better than this. Now I finally know the reason. It's not that the scripts are not good, but that it would be strange if they can be modified like this." Jiang Wen complained.

"Where are you here? The "Big Saba" that is being screened now, Brother Feng and I have been revising it for two months. You either write a script synopsis first to fool it, or put away those unrealistic ideas." Lin Zixuan suggested.

"I'll think about it again." Jiang Wen said sadly.

It is difficult to convince a stubborn person, unless Lin Zixuan does not intend to pay attention to Jiang Wen for the time being after he hits a wall, and asks him to try it himself first and then talk about it after he figures it out.

In October, the movie "The Great Saba" starring Ge You was released.

Beijing Film Studio took advantage of the opportunity of Ge You winning the TV Oriole Award for Best Actor, which was first screened in the Beijing cinema, and then spread across the country.

Although it is just a niche art film, Ge You's box office appeal cannot be underestimated.

Most of the audience went for Ge You. The quality of the whole film is very high, and it can still be remembered after watching it. Both the audience and the media gave positive reviews.

To be honest, Ge You made little progress in this movie, and he still did not go out of his previous path, but he was more mature in his performance.

The surprise of "The Great Saba" is on Xu Fan. This actress who has just graduated from the Beijing Theatre Academy has contributed a very wonderful performance, which has interpreted the gentleness and tenacity of Chinese women quite delicately.

Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan took the time to watch the movie in the cinema.

"It's a pity to end, why can't the two of them be together?" Mu Shanshan said regretfully after the show ended.

"This will make the audience think and reminisce," Lin Zixuan explained. "The main thing is that the review cannot pass. If the two of them really want to be together, it will be a promotion of extramarital affair. Think about it, if those infatuated men and women who stay in the country follow the same thing, this society will not be in chaos."

"No matter how loyal love is, it cannot stand the test of time. It is really hard to explain the love affairs." Mu Shanshan sighed.

"Don't be sentimental. That's all someone else's business. It has nothing to do with us. Let's live our own life." Lin Zixuan joked, "Let's go quickly, it looks like it's going to rain."
