Chapter 913 Spread Your Wings and Fly High
Fang Youwen and Yuan Xiao were being interviewed when they learned the news.
A reporter from a film weekly asked them questions in a temporarily rented reception room, asking "what is the red team's approach to the three keyword requirements for the seventh round of "Entertainment Intern"."
This is not a very friendly question.
"Scale Man" is not like "FROZEN". It is a Chinese-English bilingual version with a simple and easy-to-understand plot that is suitable for all ages. Without special introduction, you can see how well it fits the two concepts of "all ages" and "international". keywords.
Now the reporter is asking this question. Although it is not considered to be carrying a gun or a stick, it is definitely sharp. Once Fang Youwen does not answer well, the red group will be suspected of "answering the paper well but going off topic."
Looking at Yuan Xiao, Fang Youwen said calmly:
"This is what we think. The three requirements in the semi-propositional composition will inevitably have a focus when creating the work. The focus we chose is 'business' and 'international'."
If this were a review or mutual review session of "Entertainment Interns", Fang Youwen would naturally admit that their red team did not pay too much attention to the keyword "all ages" and only fulfilled the basic requirement of "non-grading", and It’s not a “family fun” like the blue group.
However, this is an interview with an "outsider", and some friends from the East and the West, who are fine with talking about it or not, choose not to talk about it.
He and Yuan Xiao had made plans before, and they could almost guess in what aspects they would be scrutinized.
Sure enough, the reporter’s smile did not change and he asked:
"'Commercial' is easy to understand. There are many fighting scenes in "Scale Man" and the special effects are very impressive. It is an excellent commercial blockbuster. It's just the key word 'international'... Can Director Fang be more detailed?"
Fang Youwen looked at Yuan Xiao and gestured to him to speak first.
“We understand everyone’s questions about the ‘international’ aspect.”
Yuan Xiao smiled and said, "Indeed, our creative team was hesitant at the beginning and didn't know what method to choose to reflect this feature. Later, when brainstorming with Director Fang, we both realized something at the same time. A very important thing, that is..."
He paused and said seriously:
“It’s national and it’s global.”
The expression of the reporter who wanted to trap the two of them changed slightly, and his back straightened unconsciously.
"Speaking of 'international', what is 'international'?" Yuan Xiao continued, "The answer is between various countries and related to all countries in the world. We all call it international."
"Then, the Dragon Kingdom is of course also a part of the International."
"That's right." Fang Youwen took up the topic with a smile, "After reaching a consensus on this point, editor Yuan and I suddenly became enlightened and decided to create a film with Chinese characteristics."
As he spoke, he turned slightly sideways and pointed to reporters and cameras. The new poster posted behind the two of them was the one featuring Rui and the Dragon God Panhong. The specific features were self-evident.
The reporter opened his mouth with a bright smile:
"Well, that's it...a very profound understanding..."
He originally wanted to use the keyword "international" to make things difficult for Fang Youwen, because before "Not Gray" was airborne, "Scaly Man" only had English subtitles and could barely relate to "international". This would undoubtedly make people feel that if there were no "Not Ash" and their song were a masterstroke. The red group failed in terms of keywords first.
And if Fang Youwen personally admits this and expresses his gratitude for the appearance of "Not Gray", it means that the red team's coming from behind depends on "luck" and "fate". With a little exaggeration, it can become "If you win, you will not win." Wu".
Of course the reporter has no grievances against Fang Youwen, Yuan Xiao and the entire red group, but he and the magazine behind him need a sharper and more distinct topic, so the questions have become sharper.
However, what he didn't expect was that Yuan Xiao's opening instantly elevated "Scale Man" to a level where the reporter had no position to refute, leaving him speechless.
Yes, who said that Dragon Kingdom is no longer an international country?
"International" and "foreign" are two words that cannot be easily confused or equated.
From the perspective of those foreign audiences, "The Scaled Man" is of course also an international blockbuster, an international blockbuster produced in the Dragon Kingdom.
The reporter was captured and became more honest. He secretly thought that the answers given by Fang and Yuan were "sharp and clear" in another sense. They could also be described in great detail, such as "national pride" and "cultural self-confidence". Waiting for the topic, he put on a smile and continued chatting in a friendly manner.
"Haha, yes, our inspiration came from the on-site special effects of Qinyi Technology during the seventh round of grouping... Yes, the flames and the dragon were really shocking. I couldn't help but think in this direction... "
"You are right, the quality of the soundtrack of "Scale Man" still has a lot of room for improvement. We are also very surprised by the appearance of "Not Gray"..."
"When it comes to the cultural core of the film, I personally think it is quite obvious. As we all know, attaching importance to the collective, attaching importance to unity, believing in the great power of the people at all times, etc., these are the unique ideological and culture of our country. In the design of " In the plot of "Scaleed Man", how to combine individual heroism with collective strength was a problem that we were very troubled about at the beginning..."
Without any deliberate guidance or making things difficult, the interview went smoothly.
Fang Youwen talks eloquently to the camera, and Yuan Xiao adds one or two words from time to time. Although they are still very young, their calmness, confidence, and confidence that matches their strength are enough to impress people, and they sigh that there are successors in the entertainment industry of Longguo.
"Today is already September 1st, and the results of the competition are being tallied. What do you two expect from this?"
While chatting, the reporter changed the topic and mentioned the competition between the red and blue groups.
"Whatever the outcome is, we are happy to accept it."
Fang Youwen smiled and said, "We have no regrets about being able to do our best to complete such a work in such a short period of time."
Not long after he finished speaking, there was a sound of breathing in the living room.
The reporter and Fang Yuan were stunned at the same time. Soon an assistant came over and handed over the mobile phone. The three of them looked down and their pupils were shaking.
At ten o'clock in the morning, each official account of "Entertainment Intern" released the final announcement extremely quickly. The first picture was the final results and the rewards for the first and second place. The following pictures were all statistics tables of various indicators, all-round The works of the red group and the blue group were evaluated.
The reporter can also spare some time to look at the reason why the red team won - they really won by a narrow margin. The scoring indicators of the two groups were high and low, and the converted component values were basically the same. The only thing that tilted the balance of victory was the red team's game last night. In the final minutes before the deadline, commercial revenue exceeded the blue group by a few tenths of a percentage point.
Fang Youwen and Yuan Xiao were completely stunned on the spot. The former grabbed the latter's wrist, and the latter made the former tremble physically.
[The winning work will be produced by this program group and will be formally submitted for review to ensure its global release in the near future. All process costs during this period will be fully borne by this program group. 】
"Am I blind?" Fang Youwen heard his own voice floating in the air.
"No, right." Yuan Xiao was still trembling.
Officially submitted for review...
Going through the movie release process...
Worldwide release...?
During the seventh round of grouping, they were still chuckling about how lucky they were to be able to have their film works partially screened in Shanghai just after graduation. However, they did not expect that the program team would make a huge, almost A miraculous surprise hit their heads.
The cost is all-inclusive, the process is arranged, and it will be released worldwide.
Fang Youwen's vision turned black, and he felt all the blood in his body surge up in an instant, making his head feel dizzy.
"What virtue can I have..." he murmured.
Every time he saw the temporary review label "Only spread within a small area" at the beginning of "Scale Man", Fang Youwen always thought that he must have the official label appear at the beginning of his movies in the future.
Now his dream has come true so quickly that he almost thought it was a deliberate prank by the reporter.
But the "V" mark of the "Entertainment Intern" certification cannot be faked, and everything you see is real.
A stinging pain came, and Fang Youwen came to his senses and found that there were many pinch marks on his arm, and he realized the pain.
He turned his head in a daze:?
Yuan Xiao: "Does it hurt?"
Fang Youwen: "...Shall I pinch you?"
Yuan Xiao: "Come?"
Fang Youwen really twisted it, Yuan Xiao jumped up from the stool with a "ouch", and then Fang Youwen also stood up. For a moment, the two of them could not say anything, and all they could see was the other's irrepressible giggle.
"Cow!"
Yuan Xiao opened his arms and hugged Fang Youwen hard.
"……Thanks for your hard work."
Fang Youwen hugged him back hard.
The photographer standing behind the reporter quickly took pictures with quick eyes and hands, recording the excited and touching reactions of the two people.
Immediately afterwards, a series of vibrating sounds sounded, which were their own mobile phones that Fang Youwen and Yuan Xiao had politely put aside before the interview began.
After exchanging glances with the reporter, Fang Youwen took the phone and unlocked it, and immediately smiled.
Voices and messages one after another came from family and friends, from peers in the red group, and from the entertainment class.
"Hello?... Well, Yuan Xiao and I are still in the interview. Okay, let's talk back!"
Fang Youwen couldn't stop laughing, his face was filled with joy, and there were faint tears in his eyes.
He replied to several voice messages sent by his ex-father. The voices of Nie Xingliang, Lin Rou, Su Su and others were all very recognizable. The reporter couldn't help but be secretly surprised. He didn't expect that "the red and blue groups have a good relationship" was not the case. Intentional marketing, this group of people are really good friends in private.
"Ahem. Congratulations to the red team for winning the "Entertainment Intern" competition!"
The reporter immediately changed the subject, applauded Fang Youwen and Yuan Xiao warmly, turned his head and winked at the assistant, asking her to quickly bring the bouquet over.
This bouquet of flowers was originally a polite blessing bouquet, convenient for magazine photos, but now it seamlessly became a flower of congratulations. Fang Youwen and Yuan Xiao didn't mind when they saw it, and they bowed to express their gratitude in cooperation, and both held the flowers and faced the camera. .
The atmosphere of the following interview changed dramatically and ended quickly in a peaceful atmosphere. When Fang Youwen and Yuan Xiao returned with bouquets in their arms, they still felt it was unreal.
"I seem to be dreaming." Fang Youwen looked down at the flowers.
"It's not your problem." Yuan Xiao also said, "Logically speaking, shouldn't we wait for the notification from the program team first, then return to the filming building, listen to the comments of the judges and teachers or exchange comments with the blue team, and then wait for the on-site scoring... …”
As he spoke, his voice gradually weakened, and he saw himself looking unreasonably sentimental in Fang Youwen's eyes.
It’s the fulfillment and sadness of hindsight.
Looking back at the past, everything is traceable.
Why was it that the sixth round was clearly just the semi-finals, but it ended with such grandeur, with ribbons and sequins falling like a waterfall, and host Lin Yuqin emotionally sending blessings to all the interns.
Why did the seventh round of grouping need to be recorded separately? The four judges made time to appear in the studio just to reveal the rules and keywords.
Why, this time there is no formal "graduation ceremony" and no review session.
The judges' comments? ——Dozens and hundreds of film reviews are hanging on various platforms on the Internet, which is the most direct response from the public.
The final score of the competition? ——The film reviews and word of mouth are all there, and the box office data is even more vivid.
Unconsciously, the four judges and the public judges who have been screened through layers of screening no longer need to give the results.
As early as the afternoon after the final grouping, they had already "turned from interns to full-time employees".
There was no sensational farewell, no hopeful message.
Everything is over, very early.
"Entertainment Intern" has come to an end before anyone noticed. The seventh round, although it is called the final, is actually their new starting point.
The predecessors spent several months honing these two teams, just like warm and generous hands holding two young eagles, raising their arms under the clear sky.
The eagle flapped its wings and flew away, soaring towards the endless sky and the future.
And those people, standing there, watched them fly farther and farther with satisfaction, until they broke through the clouds, and their increasingly strong and powerful backs left a small dot in the sky.
Then they smiled at each other and sighed:
"Look, our children are flying high."
