Chapter 431 Mr. Forres, Your Movie Needs to Be Rectified!

Chapter 433 Mr. Forres, your movie needs to be rectified!

Since Huaxin Brothers' "The Man From Earth" became a hit, the following ones gradually fell into silence.

Fu Ruisi worked diligently to help Lu Yuan manage the company, and every other week would gather some recent developments and arrangements of the company.

For more than half a year, the company has basically represented some Chinese word-of-mouth literary films and some action films.

Although it did not perform well at the box office, it was basically able to maintain the level of making money.

In half a year, this company brought Lu Yuan more than two million dollars in revenue.

More than two million U.S. dollars, equivalent to more than ten million yuan, is already a very good level.

After watching the company gradually turn a profit and come back to life, Fu Ruisi's mind suddenly became active.

The director's fire was not completely extinguished because of the previous failure, but became more and more active.

These days, he has been reflecting on the reasons for his failure, and at the same time he has been observing the film market these days.

Hollywood blockbusters are emerging one after another, with newcomers rising and old ones surging.

In fact, there was a feeling of eagerness to try again in his heart.

In the past few months, in addition to acting as an agent for Huaxia Films and screenings, he has been thinking about a horror script called "Photography Ghost".

American horror films were popular a few years ago, but after the explosion of sci-fi blockbusters, the American horror film industry gradually stagnated. Although there were a few horror films released throughout the year, the box office was basically mediocre.

Even in the past two years, none of the horror films were screened in theaters, and even if they were released, they were taken down after a short time.

The box office was not ideal.

But Forrest doesn't think this is the reason for the market.

Forres thinks this is entirely due to the horror film itself.

Horror films need a new approach, not pure blood, pure screams...

so,

It is precisely because of this kind of thinking that he created a "Photography Ghost" script. After many efforts, he felt that if the film could be made, the box office would definitely not be too bad.

Although he was very satisfied with his script, when he called his boss, Forex was still feeling uneasy.

After all, I have a previous record of failure...

Will the boss give himself this chance?

Forex was very disturbed.

"Forrest... you pass the script over to me to have a look."

"Oh, okay, boss, can I send you an email?"

"Well, by the way, how much do you expect to invest?"

"Fifty...no, more than two hundred thousand!"

"An investment of more than two hundred thousand dollars?"

"Yes."

More than 200,000 U.S. dollars, equivalent to more than one million yuan.

If Lu Yuan did the math, he felt that the price was not expensive and acceptable.

However, after all, my own money does not come from a strong wind. No matter how small the investment is, I still have to read the script, right?

If the script was written in a mess, then Lu Yuan would definitely not be willing to invest in the filming.

After all, there are many blockbuster movies produced by Hollywood companies, but there are also many bad movies.

It's just that the survivor effect makes everyone think that Hollywood movies are all awesome.

Although Lu Yuan enjoyed watching "Killing Alien" before, but looking back now...

This movie is absolutely typical of bad Hollywood movies.

"Okay, send me the script, I'll take a look first."

"Okay, thank you boss!"

Fu Ruisi heard that his boss was not unhappy at all, but his voice was very gentle. Immediately after that, he was in a good mood. He quickly sent the script of tens of thousands of words to his boss's mailbox. After sending it, he nervously waited for his boss' review .

Lu Yuan opened the mailbox and read the script from the beginning silently after seeing the script called "Photography Ghost"...

Lu Yuan originally thought it was an English script, but Fu Ruisi was very careful and made a Chinese script for himself.

The Chinese script Lu Yuan seems to be unimpeded by then.

But when he saw half of it, Lu Yuan was stunned!

This "Photography Ghost" is very similar to "Ghost Story" that Lu Yuan watched a long time ago. Although the plot is slightly different, the techniques and ideas to be used in it are not far from "Ghost Story".

Of course, although the script is good, in Lu Yuan's opinion, it is still somewhat different from "Ghost Story".

It seems that there are many flaws, and there are many plots that Lu Yuan seems to be unnecessary...

After reading it, Lu Yuan shook his head, downloaded the script to the computer and opened it in Word, and modified it according to the description in "Ghost Story".

I don't know why, Lu Yuan's eyes were blurred when he was reading English before, but when Lu Yuan read the script revision, his brain is very easy to use, and he is not sleepy at the same time.

However, when thinking of some plots in "Ghost Shadows", Lu Yuan panicked, especially now in the middle of the night, when there are gusts of wind blowing from a distance from time to time, like some frightening scenes in the movie. sound.

In this world, it should be...

no ghosts?

Lu Yuan shivered, and when he revised the script, he found that he felt more and more.

At about three o'clock in the morning, Lu Yuan sent the revised script to Forex via email.

After posting, he stretched.

Then I looked at the time.

Fuck...

Are you staying up late again?

Lu Yuan was so scared that he lay down on the bed without saying a word.

However, when Lu Yuan was lying on the bed, he found that as soon as he closed his eyes, the plot in the script echoed in his mind.

Then……

He thought he might lose sleep.

…………………………………

Three o'clock in the morning in China time, eleven o'clock in the noon in the United States.

After lunch, Forex looked at the script sent by Lu Yuan.

"This, this... Oh my god, boss, you... have you changed all my scripts?"

When Forres opened the script, he froze for an instant.

The name of the script is still the same, but the content in the script has been completely changed by the boss.

Except for retaining some protagonist names and some general locations in his own script, the main story line has completely changed.

"What... are these things?"

After seeing the things marked on both sides of the script, Forrest was stunned.

He suddenly discovered that there were countless shooting techniques and precautions marked in the script. When it came to the key plot, his boss also specially marked some suggestions on framing in the script.

After reading it, Forres was surprised and speechless.

Then, when he looked back carefully, he found that the script he wrote was compared with the script of his boss...

It is completely two concepts.

It is completely incomparable with the revised script.

He was suddenly hit by Lu Yuan.

I have worked so hard to write a script for so long, and I think it is a good script.

But boss...

The boss just modified it casually, and it became another script completely.

This……

Am I really not suitable for writing scripts?

Even saying that I am really not suitable to be a director?

this moment……

Forrest found himself suddenly at a loss.

…………………………………

The next day, Lu Yuan really lost his energy.

After getting up, I basically yawned and walked towards the crew.

He didn't sleep all night. After being attracted by the "Photography Ghost", the horror movies in Lu Yuan's mind poured out like a tide...

For example, "The Shining", such as "The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village", such as "The Grudge Series"...

The psychological shadow of childhood seemed to have completely exploded, and Lu Yuan wrapped himself in a quilt to scare himself on a hot day.

When the sun rose, Lu Yuan felt a lot more comfortable.

He reminded himself that there are no ghosts in this world and it is impossible for ghosts to exist.

Of course, because of scaring himself last night, Lu Yuan always made many low-level mistakes when shooting, and even Lu Yuan couldn't stand it anymore.

But fortunately, today's filming plot itself is not the highlight, the highlight is Qin Ya and Xu Lu.

Lu Yuan was able to steal a moment of leisure, directly throwing all the work to Li Qi, and went back to the house early to catch up on sleep.

only……

It didn't take long for Lu Yuan to catch up on sleep before the phone rang again.

Fatty Wei opened the call this time.

Lu Yuan yawned and answered the phone.

"What's wrong?"

"Ah Yuan... The script of Qian Zhong and I's new movie has been finished and sent to your email, please take a look..."

"okay……"

"Ayuan...can you take a look at it earlier, I want to take a picture sooner."

"Row……"

Lu Yuan yawned in a daze and then looked at the script on the mailbox.

The name of this script is "You at the Same Table".

Lu Yuan was taken aback.

What the hell?

"You at the same table"?

Lu Yuan shook his head suddenly, wiped his eyes and took another look.

He thought he was wrong because he was too tired yesterday.

When watching it for the second time, Lu Yuan found that the name of the script was correct.

It's still "You at the Same Table"...

Lu Yuan subconsciously clicked to read the script...

After reading it.

Lu Yuan was a little taken aback. .

It's not because this script is very similar to the "You at the Same Table" in my memory, and it's not because of other reasons, but it's this script that makes Lu Yuan feel like he's back when he was a student.

To be honest, Lu Yuan felt that this script was actually better than the original "You at the Same Table"...

This script surprised Lu Yuan so much!

It seems that Qian Zhong is really talented!

"Hey……"

"Ayuan, how are you doing?"

"This script was figured out by the two of you?"

"Yeah, it was indeed figured out by the two of us, what do you think?"

"Really?" Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes.

"Cough, cough... Actually, it was Qian Zhong who figured it out. I... I'm only in charge of supervision... Well, yes, supervision... Uh, okay... This script was first thought out by Qian Zhong, but I found it again. An Hui, the great screenwriter on Taiwan Island, revised it..." On the other end of the phone, Fatty Wei replied in embarrassment as if he had been poked into his heart.

"How much did the modification cost?"

"No money...after all, my title of best director is quite bluffing...Miss An Hui is very happy to help us change the script..."

"Really?" The more Lu Yuan heard it, the more he didn't believe it.

"Okay...Actually...I spent a signed photo of yours to make some deals with An Hui, A Yuan...An Hui is your fan..."

"..." Lu Yuan didn't know what to say.

My autographed photo can now be used as a trading tool?

"Ayuan, although the process is a bit tortuous, the script is still good..."

"Okay, okay, how much do you want to invest?"

"Two million?" Fatty Wei asked tentatively.

"What? Two million!" Lu Yuan was stunned, two million can be photographed?

This is not The Man From Earth.

This blind shooting might ruin the script.

"Cough, cough...Actually, if you're tight, you can get it for 1.5 million..." Fatty Wei on the other end of the phone was stunned, and then his voice was weak.

He thought Lu Yuan was unwilling.

After all, Lu Yuan's movies have always been big box office with a small cost.

two million...

Make a teen movie.

seem……

Really high?

"I'll give you four million!"

"What? Four million? Ah Yuan, the sun came out in the west today? This... A Yuan, you are so picky...cough, cough..." Fatty Wei was not surprised when he heard four million. Instead, he was stupid.

"What do you mean?" Lu Yuan was in a good mood at first, but suddenly lost his mind.

"No, it's not interesting... By the way, besides this, can I make a small request?"

"any request?"

"Well... write a song for the movie..."

"..."
