The Director of Music Department

For what Mi Huayuan said, to be honest, including Wang Yifan and Dai Xinyue were a little surprised.

Especially Wang Yifan. Although he has always felt that suspense element movies have a relatively low probability of breaking out, he never felt that suspense movies are niche movies.

But when I think about it carefully, Wang Yifan suddenly discovered that, in fact, suspense movies really rarely make a big hit.

Even in the previous life, in fact, there are two suspense films with more than 1 billion box office, "Detective Chinatown" series and "Wushuang"!

In fact, in terms of genre division, there are not many films that purely emphasize suspense genres.

Most of them are also suspenseful movies that tend to merge with multiple elements.

For example, "Chinatown Detective" and "Wushuang", and later "Assassination of Novelists" and other hit movies, in fact, can not be regarded as truly pure suspense genre films.

More suspenseful films still tend to integrate suspense elements with other types. For example, "Wu Shuang" incorporates a commercial type of criminal action in a suspenseful story, and the "Chinatown Detective" series is added on the basis of the reasoning for solving the case. The type of comedy!

The real ones can be counted as purely suspense-based films, probably including "Invisible Guest", "Master of Hypnotism", "Suspect X's Devotion", "Psychological Crimes" and so on.

In fact, the box office of these movies can only be regarded as a small hit at best, but the box office ceiling is very limited.

"More than that, in fact, there is another point, that is, pure suspense movies require very high scripts. After all, movie scripts with amazing plots like "The Devotion of Suspect X" are only a few, and, It also has a lot to do with web dramas, because in terms of web dramas, suspense crime web dramas can be said to have the best average data among web dramas. After the audience has been baptized by a large number of boutique web dramas, they are very interested in these kinds of movies. The requirements are naturally higher."

"Because, in fact, in many cases of fine online suspense crime dramas, most of the time they use the model of unit dramas, that is, one episode is one case, or two episodes are one. This kind of online drama, in fact, can already be said to be one. There is an alternative movie model, and a large number of potential audiences of this kind of movies are actually the same audiences of this kind of online dramas, and many of them are senior audiences. Therefore, their requirements for the script of the movie will change. Higher."

"In the past, some suspenseful genre films were released, and the netizens on the Internet often complained that it was not as good as a certain online drama!"

"As for suspense films that incorporate other elements, I have considered them, but on the one hand, I am not good at it. On the other hand, in fact, suspense films that incorporate other elements are riskier to some extent. For example, films with suspense + comedy elements. In fact, many directors in China have tried them for a long time, but the results are nondescript. When it should be funny, it is not funny, when it should not be funny, it is easy to destroy it. Create the atmosphere."

"In fact, at present, the most successful ones are the suspense elements + criminal action elements. However, this type of film faces another problem. On the one hand, the requirements for the script are very high, and on the other hand, the cost is It will also greatly increase."

Mi Huayuan obviously has done in-depth research on this.

Wang Yifan did not give any judgement on Mi Huayuan's view.

To be honest, Mi Huayuan said this, right?

This situation does exist, but there are exceptions to everything, and as long as there are exceptions, then such investigations are actually untenable.

Why do you say that?

In the past life, many people watched the sci-fi movies in China that were declining, saying that the sci-fi movies in China were almost a missing genre.

This point has been affirmed by countless people, but in fact?

Is it really?

Later, after science fiction movies such as "The Wandering Earth" appeared, didn't they break this statement?

Who can imagine that the "Detective Chinatown" series can get such a high box office?

So, everything to put it bluntly, it still lies in the story!

Because the market is always changing.

Mi Huayuan is right. For example, due to the influence of a large number of suspenseful boutique web dramas, it is true that audiences will definitely have higher requirements when benchmarking movies of the same kind.

But in fact, it is still a question of the director and the script.

"The Devotion of Suspect X" is considered to be a suspense genre, and it also emphasizes suspense elements.

The selling point is the same.

But as a result, this movie has won a high box office.

Therefore, Wang Yifan never treats it the same.

Of course, in fact, why Mi Huayuan has not been on the big screen, Wang Yifan is actually just curious, he still believes in Mi Huayuan's strength.

Then there is a reliable director, coupled with Wang Yifan's reliable script, is there any reason why you can't make a reliable movie?

As for Mi Huayuan's personal reasons, Wang Yifan didn't really care.

Dai Xinyue frowned slightly. To be honest, she herself was the most optimistic about Mi Huayuan.

Among the three directors, the real goal of the big director's plan is also Mi Huayuan.

Because "The Dedication of Suspect X" proves that the suspense film has a lot to do.

And Chen Shaojun, to be honest, Dai Xinyue doesn't think Chen Shaojun can be much stronger than Mi Hua. In her opinion, Chen Shaojun's advantage lies in the existence of a hairpin, Wang Yifan.

But after hearing Mi Huayuan's words, Dai Xinyue suddenly felt a little uneasy.

At this time, Wang Yifan smiled and said: "Actually, in my opinion, Mr. Mi should have said a little less, that is the domestic environmental problem, right?"

Yes, in fact, suspense films, many people in China will mention the issue of film review.

Mi Huayuan nodded and said: "It's true, because these kinds of films usually involve official law enforcement agencies."

"The suspense reasoning culture prevails in the island country. In fact, it has a lot to do with the local environment of the island country, and it also has a relationship with the audience's cognition."

"In island countries, people actually don’t have a very good perception of the police! Therefore, we often see that in island countries, in many novels or film and television works, the official law enforcement agencies often appear as clowns or supporting roles. General law enforcement personnel, and most of the time, the works of law enforcement personnel as the protagonist are almost weird!"

"But in China this is obviously not possible, especially when crimes occur, you can never leave the law enforcement agencies, and at the same time, in the setting of characters, China does not allow too much deviation in the setting of characters, especially those who pretend to be ugly. The role of law enforcement officers..."

Wang Yifan approves of this.

On the one hand, it is officially not allowed, but on the other hand, it is also because it does not conform to the facts!

For example, in island countries, because the image of law enforcement officers in the eyes of the public is not good, everyone will not be surprised if there are weird law enforcement officers.

In fact, in other words, the real detectives are all weird in the eyes of the people of the island countries, which also proves from the side that the people are generally dissatisfied with their law enforcement officers.

Obviously not at home!

Because the image of law enforcement officers in everyone's eyes is relatively positive.
