Chapter 981 Preparation
Ruishan Community.
Chen Ziyu was lying on the sofa in the living room and applying a facial mask.
Tan Yue came out of the shower and said, "Ziyu, you watch TV in the living room. I'll go to the study."
"What's wrong?" Chen Ziyu put down his phone and asked with concern.
Tan Yue smiled and explained, "It's okay. I have some inspiration now. I'll go over and conceive a movie at this time."
"Don't be too late." Chen Ziyu knew that Tan Yue would easily forget the time once he started working.
"I know, it won't be too late. I'll remember a few places and go to bed in a while."
"Then I won't bother you. I'll go to bed after applying the facial mask."
Tan Yue said "um", went to the study, took out a pen and paper, sat down, and re-sorted the plot of "The Godfather" in his mind.
This movie carries a lot.
First of all, this is Tan Yue's third movie to be released simultaneously around the world. With the excellent box office results of the first two movies, both fans and people in the circle will pay attention to this movie.
Secondly, the Brilliant Entertainment Company has already begun to emerge in the international entertainment industry. If it wants to take a step forward and expand its influence, it depends on the box office and reputation of this movie.
The last point is to compete with "Black Fire".
No matter which point, this movie must be shot well.
Tan Yue yawned and looked at the time. It was almost eleven o'clock. There was not much written in the notebook. He recorded some details in the movie.
He got up and went back to his room, turned off the lights and lay on the bed to prepare for sleep. He thought he would fall asleep soon, but after lying down, he was no longer sleepy. His mind was full of movie clips from "The Godfather".
This gangster movie is a classic. Tan Yue doesn't remember how many times he has watched it. Now he still remembers it vividly.
He personally likes this movie very much, and he is particularly looking forward to this shooting, hoping to shoot the taste of this movie.
The influence of "The Godfather" on Earth is quite remarkable, and he naturally hopes to achieve good results in this world.
In the afternoon, Tan Yue searched for a lot of information about gangster movies on the Internet, which is similar to the development situation on Earth.
Gangster films have a long history in the history of film. They originated in the silent film era. Under the background of immigrant countries and historical background, small gangs with distinct ethnic characteristics were formed. Multi-ethnic immigrant groups created a situation where multiple gangs stood side by side. Once there is a conflict of interest, the loose small gangs will form a strict organization. After a long period of struggle and fighting, the small gangs gradually formed a gang organization.
Gangster films were truly formed in the 1930s, and the Great Depression and social instability prompted their further development.
When mentioning gangster films in China, we have to talk about Hong Kong films, which began to show signs in the 1960s and 1970s. With the development of the times, policies and other aspects, the number of gangster films in Hong Kong films has decreased year by year, and has gradually changed from "gangster films" to "police and gangster films."
There are also classic gangster films in this world, but none of them can be called a classic among classics, so Tan Yue is more confident in "The Godfather".
Tan Yue, lying on the bed, changed his sleeping posture and took a deep breath to adjust his state.
I don't know how long it has been, Tan Yue slowly fell asleep. Perhaps because I have been sorting out the plot of "The Godfather" today, I dreamed that I became the male protagonist in "The Godfather".
The next day.
Brilliant Entertainment Company, President's Office.
Tan Yue is processing the documents that have just been sent today. The video conference yesterday afternoon was a cooperation with a brand.
This morning, the other party sent the draft contract.
This cooperation is a live broadcast event organized by the new media department. After several years of development, five anchors with tens of millions of fans have been cultivated. In this era where anyone can broadcast live, industry involution is inevitable. Through this live broadcast, we want to attract traffic and let these five big anchors lead the company's small anchors, and the brand side is the sponsor.
Tan Yue carefully looked at each content of the draft contract, modified several unreasonable places, and then called Chen Ye to the office.
"There are several places in this contract that need to be modified. I have already made annotations on them. You can communicate with them."
"Okay, Mr. Tan." Chen Ye took the document out.
Tan Yue continued to process the document. After more than an hour, he finished the work in his hands. Without a moment's rest, he quickly opened the script of "The Godfather" on the computer and started typing on the keyboard.
Time is still quite tight, so we have to hurry up to finish the script and start the follow-up work as soon as possible.
There are still many things and work to prepare for the crew to start filming.
In the blink of an eye, nearly two hours passed. The office became quiet. Tan Yue rubbed his eyes to relieve his mental fatigue and began to check the content he wrote.
Typos are inevitable. After modifying several places and making sure there are no problems, Tan Yue sat on the sofa and drank tea to rest.
The spirit has been kept highly concentrated, and it is easier to make mistakes without a break.
Tan Yue put down the cup and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
Somehow he suddenly remembered the dream he had last night. He never thought that he would become the protagonist in the movie.
What you think about during the day, you will dream at night.
Yesterday, except for work, I basically spent all my time thinking about "The Godfather".
What's more, even before going to bed, the scenes in the movie are still floating in my mind.
But Tan Yue still found it interesting to think that he would become the protagonist in the movie.
Ever since he came into contact with TV series and movies, he has been thinking about how to shoot them well and what kind of actors are more suitable. This time, he experienced the feeling of being the male protagonist in his dream, and it was not bad, and it was a gangster movie.
After drinking a cup of tea, a few minutes passed.
Tan Yue returned to the computer with the cup and refocused on the script.
Or time.
He thought that "Black Fire" had entered the late stage of filming, and the time pressure was still very high.
If "Black Fire" had not blatantly imitated the plot of "Infernal Affairs", Tan Yue would not be so anxious to shoot "The Godfather".
If he didn't know, it would be fine. Now that he knows, he must teach the other party a painful lesson.
Of course, ensuring quality is the most important thing, and everything else can be compromised.
The sound of typing on the keyboard came again in the quiet study. The plot of "The Godfather" appeared on the computer screen in the form of text, and of course there would be some methods of how to use the lens during filming.
Half an hour passed like this.
Tan Yue was interrupted by a knock on the door, and Chen Ye came in with a document.
"Mr. Tan, I have contacted them, and they have readjusted the terms of cooperation. This is the latest one they sent. Please take a look."
"Okay." Tan Yue took the document and looked at it carefully.
Chen Ye did not leave.
Nothing in the contract can be sloppy, and Tan Yue still read it word by word from beginning to end.
"There is no problem with this contract." As he spoke, Tan Yue signed his name on the contract: "Send the document to the new media department, and ask them to come up with a plan for how to do this live broadcast, the sooner the better."
The new media department has also organized similar activities before, and there is still experience. Tan Yue does not want to delay too much time on the plan. The sooner it is out, the more time there will be for adjustment.
"I'll do it now." Chen Ye picked up the document, and the frequency of his steps was obviously faster than before.
Tan Yue wrote some scripts and was a little tired, but he didn't want to rest and waste time, so he opened the "Character Biography" document in the "Godfather" folder.
Change your mind and write a character biography as a break.
This time, due to time constraints, Tan Yue started writing directly from the script. The character biography has not been written yet, so he thought of writing it in the gap.
Character biographies help actors better understand the role, so it is necessary to write.
Tan Yue sorted out his thoughts and started writing:
Vito Don Corleone, the first godfather, has a gentlemanly demeanor and awe-inspiring majesty. When he was a teenager, he lived in Sicily and later fled to the United States to establish a mafia empire.
As the leader of the mafia, he often did illegal things. However, he is also the patron saint of many weak civilians and is deeply loved by people. He has a principle, which is never to sell drugs and harm people.
For this reason, he rejected the request of drug lord Sollasso, and thus intensified the conflict with several other mafia families in New York.
After completing the content of the first character biography, Tan Yue stopped and looked at it carefully for adjustment.
Character biography is different from writing a plot. This content writing requires a lot of thinking, including personality and psychological analysis. All of these depend on Tan Yue's personal feelings combined with the plot of the movie.
Moreover, Tan Yue would add a sentence in many places of the character biographies, "The above content is for reference only, please think in combination with the plot." He hopes that the actors will not be framed by some words, and everyone will have different feelings after reading it.
As long as the actors' suggestions make sense, Tan Yue seriously considers their suggestions.
Then he began to write the second character:
Michael Corleone, Vito's youngest son and the youngest child in the family, inherited his father's calm, calm, shrewd and strong character.
After assassinating Sollozzo and Mycoskie, he went to Sicily to hide, met a beautiful local girl and married her. When his wife was murdered, he returned to the United States to take over the family business, became the second-generation godfather, and cleared the family's traitors and enemies at one time.
There will be many characters in a movie, but for any important ones, Tan Yue will write the character biographies seriously, and try to let the actors read the character biographies as if they were reading a biography, so that they can have a comprehensive understanding of the characters.
The movie "The Godfather" is very exciting. In order to establish a position on earth, Tan Yue must handle every little detail in place.
Only by doing so can he live up to this movie.
Tan Yue devoted himself to writing.
Single City.
Gou Sang sat at the desk and looked through the materials needed for the civil service exam, but his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled into a "chuan" character, and his eyes drifted out the window from time to time.
This failure once again hit his spirit, and he could no longer sit down and study quietly like before the exam.
Now he can't even last half an hour, and he will inevitably be distracted.
And the daily study time plan is adjusted again and again, from more than ten hours a day to two hours.
He would be thankful if he could concentrate on preparing for the exam in these two hours.
"Alas"
Gou Sang sighed and threw the materials on the table. Thinking that he didn't learn anything, he couldn't help but feel very depressed.
He didn't know what was wrong with his recent state?
Gou Sang took a cigarette out of the box, took his lighter, went out to the tree at the door, sat on a mat and started smoking.
Looking at the eye circles coming out of his mouth, his face was filled with sadness.
Although he experienced failure again and again on the road test, this road was also his ideal in life, and he didn't want to give up just like that.
Practical issues are also an aspect that must be considered.
Neighbors' gossip, parents' urging, and difficulty finding a job.
Gou Sang was completely confused. The more he heard, the less he knew how to choose.
He looked at the cigarettes in his hand and scratched his head. This pack of cigarettes was taken from his father. Without a job, even if you want to smoke, you cannot achieve freedom.
Gou Sang thought about one annoying thing after another, his eyebrows had long been knitted together, and he lamented: "Why is my life so difficult?"
In such a state, a cigarette was quickly finished. As soon as he threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, he took out a cigarette from his ear and lit it again.
Perhaps he knew himself too well and knew that one cigarette was not enough in this state, so he had already put one in his ear.
Gou Sang took a deep breath and analyzed his current situation.
Although I once again experienced failure in my exam, I still insist on spending some time studying every day. Isn't it just that there is still a little bit of sustenance in my heart, thinking that one day I will go ashore.
"Take the test! Keep taking the test if necessary! You will definitely pass!"
Gou Sang suddenly figured it out.
He felt that if he just gave up, he would regret it in the future. Instead of regretting, he should continue to work hard so that he would not regret it.
He firmly believes that everything he encounters now is a test for himself, and as long as he persists in the past, he will successfully come ashore.
Gou Sang took out his mobile phone and opened Weibo. On it, he followed a blogger who took the public entrance examination and shared his learning results every day.
Others didn't know what to think after reading it, but Gou Sang felt that it helped him a lot.
Therefore, he will often click on it to see if the blogger has shared anything new.
"It hasn't been updated yet. It will probably have to wait until the evening." Gou Sang took another hard puff.
All that was left was the cigarette butts, which were thrown to the ground and then stamped out.
Out of habit, Gou Sang clicked on Tan Yue's Weibo in his watch list. The content was still the last update on the ratings of "The Long Season". There was no new content, so I didn’t waste any more time on it. I got up, took my phone, and went back to the house to continue studying.
Status is very affected by mood.
After thinking about it, Gou Sang was extra focused this time.

PS: After taking a break for a while, I will resume updating.
I apologize to my brothers and sisters for the previous interruption!
