It wasn't Xu Nannan's fault, it was Li Yi who held her hand hand in hand. She was quite sweet at first.
Then, the pottery embryo that was originally in the shape of a bottle completely changed. Xu Nannan didn't pay much attention to it at first. She just thought that the work that was finally made was damaged by Li Yi.
But looking at the shape that Tao Fei was made into, even though they were an old couple, it still made Xu Nannan's neck turn red with embarrassment.
After all, there were not only the two of them here, but there were also several people nearby. At this time, all of them looked at them with complicated eyes. To be precise, they looked at the Tao embryos in the hands of Li Yi and Xu Nannan.
What the shape looks like is up to you.
The key is that because Li Yi was distracted, his hand firmly fixed Xu Nannan's hand. As a result, Tao Fei was spinning around, giving people the feeling that it was very...
Li Yi came back to his senses, looked down, and couldn't help but feel happy.
This is really art!
"Haha!" Li Yi couldn't help laughing.
Xu Nannan rolled her eyes charmingly and said angrily: "You are still laughing! Someone is watching!"
"Just watch it, this is art, right?" Li Yi said seriously.
In fact, it is not as exaggerated as Xu Nannan imagined. This is America, and people really have all kinds of hobbies.
The shape of the thing in their hands is like drizzle.
On the contrary, some people looked at the formed ceramic embryo in surprise, as if looking at a work of art.
Although Xu Nannan has been in North America for several years, she still has the unique restraint of the Chinese in her bones. Although she is still very open-minded at home, in private, and in front of Li Yi, there are outsiders here after all. Not to mention how embarrassing it would be to have something private appear openly under your hands.
In the end, despite Li Yi's insistence and cheating, Xu Nannan still shaped and dried the pottery embryo with a red face.
Then he hurriedly pulled Li Yi out of the pottery shop with a red face.
Looking at the extremely shy beauty, Li Yi couldn't help but want to laugh.
The movie that comes to mind, to be honest, in terms of plot, is not that unusual as a romance movie.
It's just wrapped in a supernatural guise, but I have to say that the music and classic images inside are indeed very touching.
Sometimes, a movie can become a classic not because of the plot of the movie, but because some of the scenes are too unforgettable.
For example, the song "Only Mom is Good in the World" in "Mom Love Me Again"!
For example, in "The Story of Hachiko the Loyal Dog", Hachi is lying on the flower bed watching over his master.
For example, the rooftop showdown in "Infernal Affairs".
For example, the bus romance in "Dark War"!
For example, the sitting posture in "Instinct"!
Etc., etc.
It can be said that you may not be able to remember the complete plot of many movies that are called classics, but there are always some scenes and fragments in them that can be remembered for countless years.
As for "The Love Between Ghosts and Humans", the most classic scene is none other than the pottery scene.
This may also be the charm of the movie.
A successful movie can often bring huge social impact, and may make a certain industry become temporarily popular.
Li Yi believes that if the movie "The Love of Ghosts" is made and released, these pottery shops will inevitably usher in a wave of craze.
"So, you have new inspiration because of this pottery art?" Xu Nannan felt that Li Yi was teasing her.
This is actually a bit outrageous.
"Don't you think it's very touching to see two people interlocking with each other and making pottery together?" Li Yi said with a smile.
Xu Nannan thought for a while. She was embarrassed when she patronized the pottery shop before, but she really didn't think much about it. But this time Li Yi mentioned it, and she thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it was really romantic and sweet.
"It seems indeed!" Xu Nannan nodded.
"Then tell me what kind of story it is?" Xu Nannan asked again with a curious look on her face.
Li Yi pondered for a moment and said: "Simply put, this is a story about "love even if you die"!"
Well, there’s nothing wrong with it, “The Love between Humans and Ghosts” can indeed be summed up as “I’ll love you even if I die!”
After all, you’ve become a piao, haven’t you?
"You want to love even if you die?" Xu Nannan was confused.
"Okay, I'm just teasing you!" Li Yi couldn't help but feel happy when he saw her confused look on her face.
"Hate! Tell me, tell me, what's the story?" Xu Nannan patted Li Yi angrily and asked.
"To put it simply, it is a story about a husband who died unexpectedly and learned that his death was arranged by someone to steal a huge sum of money from his bank. He turned into a ghost to protect his wife!"
"The Love Between Ghosts and Humans" can be summed up in these two sentences.
Of course, the charm of light and shadow will be fully reflected at this time.
It is obviously a very simple story, but through the lens and the rendering of various techniques, it can eventually turn this story into a memorable one.
Although "The Last Love" is a feature film, to be honest, this film is much more difficult than "The Sixth Sense" in terms of film techniques.
It can be said that montage is used vividly in this movie.
When Li Yi watched the original movie of "The Love of Ghosts" in his mind, he was conquered by the director's idea of this movie.
Various montage techniques and the ingenious transformation of time and space create a wonderful atmosphere for the film. The use of montage is just right, especially the switching of various time and space in the film, where humans and ghosts are in different time and space. This is a difficult point in the film processing. It is also the key part. The director used different perspectives, different sceneries, and made careful arrangements. In the end, the time and space transformation of the film became the most exciting part of the film.
Many times, a movie shows more than just a story, but also many things.
The plot is more often about creativity, and the director's shots are often about creativity as well.
In movies, everyone knows what montage is, but when you use montage in movies and you can use it just right, that's your real skill.
"When I finish writing the story script, you can take a look at it!" Li Yi didn't say much.
Xu Nannan was looking forward to it.
For the vast majority of men and women, women tend to prefer romance movies, which can be said to be true across the world.
After all, most of the time, women are much more emotional than men.
Therefore, romance films released in cinemas always target female audiences the most.
Of course, "The Last Love" is definitely not a perfect movie. In fact, there are still many flaws in the movie.
For example, ghosts cannot touch real objects, can pass through walls, but cannot pass through the ground, etc., etc.
Of course, these are not big problems.
In fact, any work related to supernatural beings will inevitably have problems that are difficult to explain logically. After all, Ah Piao is something that cannot be clearly explained by science.
Therefore, Li Yi didn't care too much.
In fact, "The Sixth Sense" also had such problems, but after the movie was released, except for a very small number of people, the vast majority of people chose to ignore these "harmless" problems.
After all, movies are the art of dreaming. Since it is a dream, it is different from reality. Naturally, it is impossible to explain everything using realistic cognition.
For a story, the screenwriter has a privilege. What privilege?
That is "God's privilege"!
Back to business.
As mentioned earlier, in fact, the story of the movie "The Last Love" is not complicated. What is really complicated is the use of filming techniques.
Therefore, Li Yi "reproduced" the story script very easily.
Xu Nannan became the first reader.
What catches the eye is a poem: "The farthest distance in the world is when I am by your side, but you can't see, touch or feel my existence!"
This is also the essence of this movie.
After all, as we all know, everyone will say: humans and ghosts have different paths!
Therefore, from the very beginning, the title of "The Love between Humans and Ghosts" establishes that this will be a sad story. No matter what the process is, the ending must be sad.
And this is the essence of romance movies.
Looking at the romance films that have left a mark on film history, which one is not a tragedy?
Only tragedy can make the audience remember it more deeply.
After Li Yi wrote the script for "The Love Between Humans and Ghosts," he immediately submitted it to the Screenwriters Guild for filing.
In fact, Li Yi still underestimated the influence of "The Sixth Sense" with a North American box office of over 600 million US dollars and a global box office of over 1 billion US dollars.
Major Hollywood film and television giants, including Dean Pictures, have sent people to keep an eye on it.
Not long after Li Yi's script was submitted for filing, they learned about the news.
Especially after seeing the title of "The Last Love", they became even more eager.
Without him, although they believe that successful people always succeed, if Li Yi comes up with a film of other types at this time, maybe they will not be so eager.
Of course, "The Love Between Humans and Ghosts" is a translated title. In fact, this movie also has translated titles such as "The Sixth Sense of Life and Death" and "The Sixth Sense of Life and Death".
Li Yi did not use the English title "Ghost" from the original movie, but used a title similar to "The Sixth Sense"!
In addition, the content also involves supernatural beings, ghosts, etc., so they immediately felt that this was a film of the same type as "The Sixth Sense".
With the success of "The Sixth Sense" ahead, and a movie of the same type written by director Li Yi, it can be said that the risk has been reduced to the extreme.
So, how could they not be in a hurry?
The most urgent one is James Dean from Dean Films.
He called Li Yi as soon as he got the news.
"Hi, Lee, I saw the new script you filed with the union. Dean Films is at your service at any time!" James Dean lowered his stance.
However, this is really not unusual in Hollywood.
In the past, CAA bosses were able to dance on the table for profit, and the new work of a great director like Li Yi who has proven his worth is naturally worthy of James Dean being so polite.
Li Yi couldn't help but laugh. He had one thing to say. Although in Hollywood, whether James Dean or several other giants, profit comes first.
As long as there is a benefit, they can endure many things that others may find unbearable.
Such is James Dean at this moment.
"The script has just been written. James, are you too impatient?" Li Yi said with a smile.
"No, no, no, I know very well, you are Li! I believe many people will be looking for you soon. Li, believe me, Dean Pictures is definitely your best choice!" James Dean Said very directly.
Of course, he was not anxious for Li Yi to make this movie, but was worried that Li Yi would be poached.
After all, who in Hollywood doesn't know the value of Li Yi?
It's quite interesting to say that Hollywood believes that successful people always succeed, which has also caused many tragedies.
In fact, many of those big productions that hit the market are projects launched by successful directors or gold medal producers, because just getting some results is not enough to make them blind like that.
But once you achieve great success, even if Hollywood has its own set of rules, people will often change the rules and break the rules.
But now Li Yi does have such qualifications.
Because his work on the movie "The Sixth Sense" brought enviable profits to Dean Films, and it was also a long-term meal ticket.
The more popular a movie is, the higher the revenue it can generate in the future.
Although Li Yi got a lot, for Dean Pictures and the others, Li Yi deserved it. In fact, in order for Li Yi to continue to cooperate, Dean Pictures settled a lot of the shares right away. .
You know, it involves hundreds of millions of dollars. If you hold it in your hands for one more day, you will get one more day of profit.
"We are very happy to cooperate. Of course, I give priority to Dean Pictures." Li Yi did not say anything. Anyway, before signing the contract, everything is still unknown.
Li Yi naturally wants to obtain enough benefits for himself.
In fact, Li Yi prefers to share the investment, because the more people join, the more weight he can gain.
So this time, we must change the gameplay.
It is not in Li Yi's interests that Dean Pictures wants to swallow it all.
"The Sixth Sense" has not encountered too many obstacles before. On the one hand, this is because it is a tacit understanding between the major Hollywood giants, and they generally do not do anything outside the rules for each other's movies.
Of course, even if this is the case, Dean Films also has competitors, but at the beginning, they also didn't care too much about a low-cost film like "The Sixth Sense".
After all, although Li Yi is somewhat famous here, he is really not as good as those big Hollywood directors.
Therefore, they had no plan to block it at the beginning, but with "The Sixth Sense" in front of them, if Dean Pictures still goes it alone, it will inevitably be blocked.
Although it doesn't matter to Li Yi, Dean Pictures is also not a mess, but if we can get a few allies and Fenrun takes the part that belongs to Dean Pictures, it can clear many obstacles. Li Yi Ziran prefers multi-party cooperation.
