Chapter 26 Am I the Protagonist?

In fact, although the birth of "Reaper 2" caused some companies' performance to decline and their business to hit a new low, some companies' performance hit a record high, their products were out of stock, and the staff were extremely busy.

for example……

Tefal.

According to incomplete statistics, Tefal Motors sold more than 2,000 vehicles in just a few days in the world. The reason is that all the cars in the slow-moving series are also sold out...

Clearance!

Tefal looked at the performance sheet.

Ha ha!

The work that normally takes a quarter is completed in a few days, and the profit is far more than ten times the investment in movie advertising. Moreover, as long as "Reaper 2" continues to be broadcast, his sales will continue to go crazy rise.

After all, the advertising effect!

After all, everyone cherishes life, and "Reaper 2" indirectly blows up other people's Tesla cars.

In addition to Tefal making a fortune, the umbrella insurance company is full of people, and there is an endless stream of people who come to buy insurance.

Alvin's face was about to twitch with a smile.

After this wave, the umbrella company directly hoisted the travelers up and beat them, and the stock price rose to a peak!

This feeling of taking off is very cool!

"Longyuan must compensate for the losses of the United States! Compensation must be made!"

"Lu Yuan is a Chinese, he is a sinner!"

"I will sue Lu Yuan!"

"..."

The host Kvia is like an old troll every day in the media, trolling Lu Yuan and his "Reaper 2".

At first, there was a large group of people responding, but watching some high-level officials in the United States respond to this incident, there was nothing but thunder and rain. In addition, Kvia was swearing and scolding in the media, and the popularity was soaring. After doing nothing with the sense of existence, this group of people suddenly felt a chill in their hearts.

They realized they were shouting out their throats,

This loss has to be posted by yourself.

Will Lu Yuan lose money?

Can you sue Lu Yuan?

Can the lawsuit be won?

Even if the lawsuit really wins, even if Lu Yuan really wants to lose money, will the Motion Picture Association of America let it? Will the entire World Film Association let it?

We are all proud!

Who can not guarantee that his movie will become a hit and not affect reality?

If you lose money once you make a hit movie, who will make a movie...

It's not realistic at all!

so……

The group of unlucky bastards who followed Kvia and yelled at the platform suddenly realized that they had been fooled.

"We will build a limited edition "Reaper 2" movie commemorative car to celebrate "Reaper 2" breaking a new record for horror movies!"

At this time, the potbellied Tefal staggered to the front of the media, shamelessly slapped "Reaper 2" as a flattery, and by the way, made another wave of presence and popularity.

Tefal under the camera looks a little arrogant.

He seemed to tell the whole world that the advertisement for "Reaper 2" was sponsored by our company!

I had the foresight!

I am awesome.

Many companies have noticed that Tefal has made a lot of money in this wave, and they are overwhelmed.

Everyone was so sour, especially seeing Tefal's arrogant appearance, everyone wanted to slap him hard.

Envious?

Who is not envious!

So, what to do?

Find Lu Yuan with the money, and find a long-distance cooperation. Didn't "The Truman Show" make a big deal before?

Let Lu Yuan do another wave of "Reaper 3"!

………………………………………

"Reaper 2" is extremely popular, breaking through the global box office of 200 million U.S. dollars in just eight days.

This is an astonishing statistic.

At least……

In the field of horror films, "Reaper 2" is already invincible.

James didn't stop. After a week of rest, he immediately followed the team to ponder the script of "Reaper 3".

Of course, "Reaper" and "Reaper 2" basically have a complete script, but the script of "Reaper 3" is quite simple...

In fact, the script Lu Yuan gave James to "Reaper 3" is very simple!

There is only one sentence from beginning to end.

"This time it starts at the amusement park and ends at the subway station... the way of death can't be heavy, it can't make the audience feel aesthetically tired, and it must be close to reality. At the same time, the god of death can't appear frontally. Continue to use this tone and keep the suspenseful color. As for You can decide how much to invest..."

and then?

And then no more.

This sentence is like an exhortation, which is the script of "Reaper 3".

Well, if you really want to say it, the framework of the "Death is Coming" series has been outlined in the first part, and the ending of various dark lines has also been foreshadowed. The only thing that needs to be changed is the novelty and closeness. The realistic way of death, and the psychological changes of the structural characters...

Well, if these are completed, "Reaper 3" will be OK.

As for the sentence that you can do what you want to invest, this sentence undoubtedly directly gave James huge rights.

How much investment is appropriate?

At a loss!

So many advertisers approached "Reaper 3", all hoping to place an advertisement on "Reaper 3"...

The total adds up to far more than 200 million US dollars.

Ok!

no doubt……

"Reaper 3" is another movie that made money before it was released.

etc!

seem……

I don't know when the "remote" company has been able to make money by making movies with empty hands and white wolves with just a movie title?

Earn a fortune from the advertising fee first, and then earn another fortune from the release!

What the hell, double the happiness.

but……

After receiving a script like Lu Yuan's, James suddenly had an inexplicable bad taste in his heart when he was deep in thought.

Playground begins, subway ends?

The subway ends...

First it was aviation, then it was cars, now it's subways...

etc!

Has the boss fucked the transportation industry in the United States?

……………………………

March 2.

The sun was setting.

A young figure wearing a hat walked forward step by step in the desert. His lips looked extremely dry. At the same time, the sun above his head was very hot, which made him dehydrated all over his body. It seemed that every step forward was extremely strenuous. .

His throat moved, and he looked at the endless yellow sand in the distance, as if he could never see the edge, and he took a long breath.

He looked down at his kettle, and there was only one sip of water left in the kettle.

His throat trembled, he hesitated for a moment, and finally did not drink this sip of water but looked behind.

"Archie..."

"..."

"Archie?"

"..."

"exist……"

"Can you still go?"

"Brother, I'm so thirsty..."

"Hold on, it's almost here!"

"Brother, why don't we take a sip of the water here!"

"No, I have to go again... Wait for the next intersection, and I'll pour it for you again."

"Ok……"

And behind him, another young man also kept walking forward. The young man looked exhausted, but his eyes revealed a desire.

However, after looking at the young man in front of him and shaking his head, he could only grit his teeth and nod.

They continued to walk forward step by step.

At the beginning, there were about a hundred people who came together, but as the journey got longer and longer, these hundreds of people gradually left the team for various reasons. In the end, only the two of them were left with faith. youth.

This in itself is a very difficult journey.

However, a sandstorm caused all the water in the young man's kettle to be spilled and disappeared. He could only rely on the only pot of water left by his brother in front to continue his life.

but……

Dust filled the sky.

How long can this pot of water last?

time passed by...

The sun is still vicious.

The two walking figures gradually slowed down and began to struggle. At the same time, an oasis appeared in front of them. When the two brothers rushed to that place with all their strength, they realized that it was just a mirage.

"Brother, I might be dying...I can..."

"Then take a sip, I'll pour it for you..." The young man in front hesitated, then nodded.

"it is good!"

"Brother, have you had a drink?"

"Drink it, drink a lot."

"Oh, how much water do we have left?"

"There's still half a pot left!"

"Okay, half a pot, we should be enough."

"Yeah, that's enough!"

"..."

one hour later.

"Brother...can I have another sip?"

"it is good."

"..."

half an hour later.

"elder brother?"

"elder brother!"

"elder brother!"

"..."

under the setting sun.

The younger brother at the back looked blankly at the older brother who fell suddenly in front of him.

He screamed in shock, and when he came to his brother, he suddenly found that his whole body was dehydrated.

He quickly took out the pot beside his brother.

Then he found that there was no water in the jug...

There is no water at all!

From beginning to end, he drank the water.

"elder brother!"

He cried out heart-piercingly.

"Crack!"

After Xu Qifeng yelled a click, Lu Yuan, who was dehydrated and fell to the ground, moved his body and opened his eyes.

The medical team all ran over with various equipment and water and surrounded Lu Yuan tightly.

This is a scene from The Last Days on Earth.

but……

This scene made the whole crew tremble with fear, and Xu Qifeng's heart was in his throat!

This scene could have been shot in the desert without shooting, and everything can be solved with special effects simulation.

but……

In order to have a real effect, Lu Yuan must insist that everyone come to the desert to shoot, and it doesn’t count if you come to the desert to shoot. Lu Yuan suggested that you really need to maintain a state of dehydration, so as to have a sense of reality.

then……

There was such a heart-pounding scene...

This is too hard!

In fact, every second of filming such a plot is a kind of torture for Xu Qifeng.

Every line and every expression of Lu Yuan touched Xu Qifeng's soul.

He was really afraid that if something happened to Lu Yuan, then he would really be doomed, and if he didn't do it, he would have a bad reputation forever.

but……

Xu Qifeng breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Lu Yuan return to his normal expression after drinking the water...

The filming of the scene that tormented his heart is finally over!

What the hell!

Why did you write this desert scene when you wrote the script yourself?

Be sick!

Half an hour later, when he saw that Lu Yuan had completely returned to normal, he was relieved.

Later, when watching the replay, he couldn't help but be infected by Lu Yuan's expressiveness.

Boss Lu's acting ability is really terrifying. He actually took one shot of this episode to the end.

After watching it again, he suddenly found himself cruel.

This script...

Can't do this.

If this brother died like this, then...

not good!

He found that he was somewhat infected by the role played by Lu Yuan, as if he was alive.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally came to Lu Yuan's tent.

"Boss Lu..."

"What's wrong?"

"Why don't you stay for another day? I don't think you can die like this for this script...I want to change the script. What do you think?"

"Another day?"

"right!"

"you sure?"

"Ok……"

…………………………………

one day later...

"Boss Lu..."

"What's wrong?"

"or……"

"Another day?"

"Cough, cough, cough..."

"You added so many scenes to me, it almost overwhelmed the protagonist."

"Isn't this, your character is alive..."

"..."

……………………………

two days later...

"Boss Lu..."

"Another day?"

"Cough, cough, um, can I stay for two days this time? I suddenly have a new idea..."

"Tell me and listen!"

"it is good."

……………………………………

Day after day, day after day.

Originally planned to finish his plot and leave the crew of "The Last of Earth" on March 3rd.

but……

Until March 24th, Lu Yuan still hadn't left the "The Last of Earth" crew, and his "supporting role" plot was completely unfinished...

Xu Qifeng kept adding stories and scenes to Lu Yuan's character...

Then……

This "Last Day on Earth" seems to have become a drama with two protagonists.

Then, patting and patting again, the taste seemed wrong.

Liu Yukun, who was the leading actor, was at a loss.

He should be the main character, right?

He felt that he didn't know when he started to become a supporting role.

It seems, weird...

On March 26th...

Liu Yukun suddenly received a call from Xu Qifeng.

"Yukun."

"what?"

"Why don't we arrange a more heroic scene for you tomorrow?"

"What? Heroic?"

"Yeah, don't you feel that your character is a little more popular?"

"Ah? But, it's less than half of the filming now, and I'm heroic. I... Am I still the protagonist?"

"You are the protagonist!"

After seeing Xu Qifeng's serious expression, Liu Yukun, who was originally the protagonist, suddenly doubted his life.

Is there a main character who died halfway?
