The Director of Music Department

At 9:30, the press conference for director Li Mingjuan's new movie officially started.

Li Mingjuan personally presided over the press conference.

In fact, it also means that Li Mingjuan has started to move from behind the scenes to the front stage.

Although the director is a behind-the-scenes job, but today, in fact, the director itself is also a brand, such as Wang Yifan, such as Chen Hang, such as Yang Long and so on.

The same is true for Li Mingjuan, and to a certain extent, Li Mingjuan's reputation is actually no worse than that of ordinary stars.

After all, since "Hitching the Wrong Car", she has been called the No. 1 box office female director in Hua Country, the No. 1 female director in Hua Country, and so on.

Moreover, the real results are there.

It's just that Li Mingjuan has always been relatively low-key in the past, but now it's different. She wants to carry the banner of female directors in Huaguo, so it's time to go to the front of the stage.

To put it bluntly, in fact, the bosses of those companies, the most famous being Jobs, have almost become a symbol, and even he himself has surpassed the scope of a professional manager or the boss of a company, becoming the pioneer of an era By.

Then there are those bosses in the country who also go into battle shirtless, letting their names and figures appear frequently in front of the public.

It can be said that the celebrity effect has been brought into full play in this era.

By promoting yourself, you can achieve the purpose of promoting your company and products.

Of course, Li Mingjuan can't reach this level, but it's clear that this is the path she will take next.

Of course, the premise is that you have to have a work, and the work must be successful, otherwise, this model will lose its most basic foundation.

Li Mingjuan is naturally confident. "Sunshine Sisters" can be said to be different from existing Chinese movies, and although this movie is a female movie and tells a story about a woman, the script and the movie are not Say, only for female audiences.

"Sunshine Sisters Amoy" is a light comedy female movie. At the same time, it is different from ordinary chick movies. This movie tells stories about women from beginning to end.

And what Li Mingjuan wants to do is to be an iconic figure of a female director. Of course, this also means that for a long time to come, her first choice for films will be women's films.

Of course, if it was just "Sunshine Sisters", Li Mingjuan might not be able to make up her mind. After all, the success of a film like this is actually very difficult to establish her as the number one female director, but If two female films succeed in succession, it will be completely different for Li Mingjuan.

And Wang Yifan's script for Li Mingjuan is not only "Sunshine Sisters", but also a script outline of "My Little Black Dress".

These two female films are enough to secure Li Mingjuan's position as the number one female director in China.

"Thank you, friends from the media, for coming to today's new movie conference." Li Mingjuan said with a smile while standing on the main stage.

"It's a great honor to stand here and meet you. After the release of "The Wrong Car", I have received countless film appointments, but I didn't accept them. Instead, I started a global movie tour. I went to Cannes, Went to Venice, went to Berlin, went to Hollywood, and I talked to a lot of female directors."

Li Mingjuan seemed to be lost in memory.

Back then, "Hit the Wrong Car" made Li Mingjuan's reputation reach a peak, but she is a very rational person, not confused, but she knows her strengths and weaknesses.

In fact, in terms of directing ability, artistic level, etc., she doesn't think she is much better than others, this is not her advantage.

Her advantage is that she succeeded. The box office of "Hitch the Wrong Car" exceeded one billion yuan, making her the number one female director in China. This is her advantage.

But how to ensure that she can always maintain this advantage?

So, she started a global tour, and she did go to major film festivals around the world to communicate with those foreign female directors.

The media reporters in the audience were also a little surprised by Li Mingjuan's choice.

Normally, once one becomes famous, it is natural to strike while the iron is hot in order to maximize profits.

You must know that after "Hitching the Wrong Car", Li Mingjuan's director's remuneration has risen to the top level, and the prices offered by many companies can be said to be sky-high. The share ratio is not low.

What are they drawing? Naturally, it is a picture of Li Mingjuan's fame after "Hitching the Wrong Car".

A great director often has a charisma that surpasses those big stars.

For example, in Wang Yifan's movies, he doesn't need any big-name stars at all, he is the biggest himself.

Of course, Li Mingjuan has not reached this level yet, but after all, she is a big director with a box office of over one billion, so she herself is a big name.

And the reason why Li Mingjuan didn't choose to rush to take the film for a high salary at that time was mainly because she knew that the film and television industry was after successful people, and she was successful so so many people were willing to invest huge sums of money to invest in her.

But in the same way, if the next movie fails to meet expectations, then for Li Mingjuan, her position, which is already not stable enough, will be greatly impacted immediately.

For this reason, Li Mingjuan chose to let herself cool down for a while.

"I had a conversation with Anna, the chairperson of this year's jury at the Cannes Film Festival, and we talked about women's films. Looking at the entire history of film, we found that women's films, whether commercial or artistic, have made great achievements. And less.

As for female directors in the film industry, they are also much less than male directors, and it can even be said that they are edgy.

So is it really the lack of ability of female directors? We don't think so, but the market.

We all know that movies are the art of light and shadow, audio-visual art, and movies also entrust some of the director's ideas, but mainstream movies are mainly male, and men obviously understand male movies better than women, so in turn , do female directors also understand women's films better than male directors?

In the market in recent years, there have actually been a lot of blockbuster movies for women. These movies are called chick movies, but the stories in many chick movies are still about love and still rely on men. , then I was thinking, why not try to make a story between women?

At the celebration banquet of "White Night Chasing the Murder", I shared my thoughts with Director Wang Yifan. Director Wang Yifan told me with a smile at the time, in fact, movies with themes of friendship between men and brothers, etc. are not uncommon. Then, on the other hand, naturally, stories such as friendship between women and girlfriends can also be told.

It dawned on me to tell the story of sisterhood between women from a woman's point of view.

Then there is the story of "Sunshine Sisters Amoy". By the way, this is the name of my new movie. It will be a story about the growth of a group of girls. "
