I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 337 [Director Li who got stuck]

"let's break up."

When evening comes,
When Park Louis walked out of the cafe, he said abruptly, "I think we might not be suitable."

Next to him, the woman who had just entered the cafe on her arm had already let go of her hand and replied disdainfully, "This is a really bad excuse. Okay, let's break up."

She responded simply, without any hesitation or reluctance.

"...Have you got a new goal?"

And her straightforwardness obviously made Park Lui a little uncomfortable. He asked in a deep voice, "You won't cheat, will you?"

"It's cheating when you're married!"

The expression on the woman's face became even more disgusting. She stretched out her finger with red nail polish and poked his clothes, "And you were the one who proposed to break up. Why, you're such a bitch and you feel upset when you see me being so straightforward." Are you comfortable?"

"You don't think that I will fight you to death, do you? Sorry, I'm not one of those stupid women you found before. What kind of person are you? I don't know? Of course, if you really want to If so, it’s not like I can’t act.”

After Lu Zhengyi checked the film, he looked away from the monitor in front of him and said seriously to Bai Wei, "Don't blindly give people ideas and put pressure on them. If people want to make it public, they will make it public."

Before they met Fujiang, both of them were relatively sincere and conservative people when it came to emotions, but the two people in front of them didn't care about emotions at all.

He did not skimp on the methods he learned on the path of directing.

"Nowadays, few people can come up with truly new ideas. If you want to express these old ideas in a less boring way, you need some packaging, that is, process and foreshadowing."

Today’s shooting is the beginning of the second half.

It's like he once taught other directors how to make horror films, without any hesitation.

The two pairs of leading actors appearing in the film still have to be somewhat related.

"If we break up, our relationship cannot affect the friendship between my father and your father."

"After all, with the relationship between our two families, we can have fun together depending on the situation, but after the fun is over, we have to end it quickly so as not to affect the business, right?"

"I've known about this for a long time." Lu Zhengyi continued to stare at the clip he had just taken, and replied without turning his head, "The two of them have a good relationship, and it's not just a day or two. They are both talented and good-looking, and they are very good together. normal."

If we say, the emotion between Akita and Sanae is pure.

Of course, it is normal to have reservations because you are afraid that others will surpass you.

From what Lu Zhengyi heard, he knew that Bai Wei was a little regretful that he could not pass on this gossip. "It would be much better to make it public earlier than to be found out later, in terms of impact."

She seemed very skilled.

There are not many scenes, it just introduces the appearance of the two leading actors.

Watching this clip alone is like watching an idol drama.

"Sure enough, when I was watching it, it felt very boring."

There is no need. Even if they are not in the same country, if Ito can rely on the skills he has learned to create better works after returning, and make the entertainment atmosphere of Japan more biased towards 'horror' and 'thriller' themes, then for It is also helpful to develop your own career and promote your works.

"Oh..."

But Lu Zhengyi, he is not afraid.

Last time he returned to China, he heard Zhang Xueming mention it.

"Many interesting films are not new ideas, but just a change of routines. People have already studied these cultural and entertainment contents thoroughly over the years."

Lu Zhengyi thought for a moment and responded, "Actually, there are methods for these."

"But both of them are capable actors. Why don't they choose to make it public and instead plan to hide it? I don't quite understand."

"It's like the fashion circle. Sometimes long hair is popular, sometimes short hair is popular, as well as clothing, Internet slang..."

The King of the Sea and the Queen of the Sea are probably the same kind of characters.

"Xiao Ming, that guy, is hanging out with Lily." While the scene was almost done, Bai Wei came over mysteriously and gossiped with Lu Zhengyi, "They have made it public in the group, Director Lu, you Don’t you want to chat? Blessings and blessings.”

After all, Guangying is responsible for the company's operational work, so in terms of emotions, the agent has also been notified in advance.

"It's all their own decision."

And Lu Zhengyi always likes to stay in the crew and go back with the last group of people.

When night fell and the filming ended, other members of the crew were busy cleaning up the venue, and some people went back to the hotel to rest first.

The man slapped her hand away and straightened his suit, "There's no need for acting. You're right, it's easy to get together and relax."

But this was all other people's business, and Lu Zhengyi didn't ask any more questions.

Ito nodded thoughtfully.

"Li Zhiyun, do you need me to take you home?"

Although it was a breakup scene, there was no reluctance, reluctance, dissatisfaction, or reluctance like that seen in normal relationships. There was only dignity and decency.

It was as if the two of them had just played a game together. After it was over, they didn't care who lost or won, but they just made an appointment to play together.

"It's like a crime-fighting movie. The villain at the end is often by his side. The smiling person in the early stage is actually the biggest protective umbrella. These scenes are actually relatively common and nothing new."

The woman named Li Zhiyun waved her hand, "Sorry, I have my own car and driver."

"Although you already know that our method of filming this film is to first suppress and then enhance, but how to suppress it so that the audience can slowly immerse themselves in the plot and substitute the characters in the story, and how to raise it to point out the purpose of the film. The subject matter allows the audience to experience the emotions that a horror film or a thriller should have."

At the end of the shooting, Ito sat next to Masayoshi Lu and said softly, "But it will be much better if we connect the contents and read them later."

He also heard Zhang Xueming talk about it, and both of them disclosed this matter to their agents.

Although Zhang Yuming and Yu Li are both capable actors, they don't need to consider those with good looks.

But the situation of the two of them is actually not stable.

When young people fall in love, they may not necessarily end up in it, and they may not actually get married.

Now they are talking vigorously, but when the time comes to break up, it will be a shame for both of them. Those blessings and ambitious promises will only ruin their character.

So instead of causing some trouble, it's better to wait and then talk.

If the two of them are really suitable, it won't be too late to make it public.

And if it's not suitable and we break up, we can just deal with it calmly in the future.

This suggestion seems to have been made by Yu Li. After all, under normal circumstances, although Zhang Yuming is very good and a completely innocent boy, sometimes, he is not a reliable person.

From the things he did.

But on the way back, Lu Zhengyi took out his mobile phone.

He wanted to send a message to one person - Li Chuanxin.

There seems to be no news about Director Li's pen fairy until now.

Although the atmosphere of horror films in Tang Dynasty has gradually gained momentum, there are still relatively few directors and actors willing to devote energy, time, and money to filming.

Mainly, everyone is not sure that they can shoot well. Just like before, Xingyu Media saw Lu Zhengyi and others making a lot of money, so they quickly followed suit and started Terror in the Night.

As a result, the film was downloaded within a few days of its release.

The comment area is now like a ghost zone, not a single person has spoken. The last person to leave a message was a few months ago, a fan of Bai Shaoshang, the star of Terror at Night.

But now people seem to have turned from fans to fans. It seems that because something happened in Bai Shaoshang's private life was exposed, some people have turned away from fans and started to criticize him under his works.

Lu Zhengyi did not understand the specific incident. After all, he was not a particularly important person.

However, Bai Shaoshang's popularity is no longer what it was before.

The reason is probably that after starring in this film, his reputation dropped extremely sharply, and he directly said goodbye to the film industry. When he wanted to continue to make money in the film and television industry, he was exposed to a scandal.

The wall fell and everyone pushed against him, and now his reputation is ruined.

The film and the lead actors are all in shambles now.

That is to say, the director of "The Nightmare" is better, but mainly his original reputation is poor. He is called the king of bad movies. He makes seven movies in a year. One more movie is not too bad, and one less one is not too bad. .

But with this lesson learned, even if the horror and thriller movie market is booming, not many people are willing to follow suit.

Even if there are, some small-scale crews and unknown actors want to gamble their luck, but obviously, it is not easy to achieve high returns with a small investment.

Therefore, Lu Zhengyi is very careful about Li Chuanxin, a person who is willing to make movies, dares to make movies, and is willing to ask for advice.

Sitting in the car, he looked through the chat history with the other party.

The last time he sent a message was a few months ago. At that time, he had completed the rewriting of the script and drawn a new storyboard. But until now, several months have passed, and he has not heard anything about the movie starting. news.

"Are you still filming?"

Thinking about it, Lu Zhengyi sent a message.

Although the two of them didn't meet often, online, during the time when Bixian was writing the script, they still met quite frequently.

Although Li Chuanxin was a little older than him, he still kept asking for advice as a student, so the tone of his messages was relatively casual.

"Director Lu, I may have to live up to your expectations."

The news came back very quickly. Lu Zhengyi had already put down his phone. After all, it was quite late now.

But unexpectedly, Li Chuanxin replied instantly.

In terms of content...

"What happened?"

Lu Zhengyi replied hesitantly, there must be a reason why people spent several months just to improve the script and now they say they won’t film it.

At least this reason has nothing to do with his creative passion.

Maybe it's something about life, or maybe... finance.

"The screenwriter of the script did not agree with my changes."

This time, Li Chuanxin did not reply immediately, but waited for a while.

But with the message that he had replied instantly, it was obvious that it was not because he was busy or because he was delayed by something else.

Instead, I was thinking about whether to tell myself the situation.

It’s not funds?

Lu Zhengyi was a little surprised, but after thinking about the news, he quickly understood.

Although Pen Fairy is a psychic game, Li Chuanxin’s Pen Fairy has an original author.

An original author who created the script for the psychic game Bixian.

After all, most directors in the industry receive the script first and then make a shooting plan.

Very few people are like me.

"He said that the script I changed was no longer his work, so he rejected the proposal to film it."

"But we have signed a contract before. Even if the script we revised together is different from the original work, I can't go around him and treat it as a new work to shoot a movie, otherwise he will If it happens, the movie will be over."

"So I've been trying to get him to agree to the shoot."

"But it took too long, the capital chain was broken, and investors withdrew directly."

"The current situation is that I only have one script in hand, and it's signed by someone else's name. You said, if I had the idea of ​​making a horror film at that time, I would go directly to you. Now maybe the film will be finished and the post-production will be done. Okay, it’s ready for release.”

Li Chuanxin's words were full of regret.

At that time, he had finished revising the script and was very high-spirited. He also planned to find Yu Wenxiu to cooperate.

As a result, we are stuck at the screenwriting step!
He took the time to get the screenwriter's permission, only to have a fire in the backyard and a broken financial chain.

He had to hurry up to win back investors.

I have been busy for more than a year. The busier I am, the fewer chips I have in hand. What is this? Busy work!
"You can't say that. If you didn't have that script, you wouldn't have the idea of ​​making a horror movie, and you wouldn't come to me." Lu Zhengyi's thinking was still very clear. He didn't expect that Li Chuanxin didn't get the script Without authorization, the script was changed privately.

And there was a leak in the contract.

When I first obtained the authorization and signed the contract with Ito, I made it clear that the director would have the main say in the crew, and the screenwriter would only have the right to make suggestions.

With this in mind, even if Ito is no longer satisfied with his filming, he can only let the filming of the film end and be released, or at most he will complain on the public platform.

And Lu Zhengyi wants to satisfy him as the screenwriter, which is the icing on the cake.

As for Li Chuanxin...

He directly handed over half or one-third of the decision-making power to others. After all, there was an investor.

No, no, investment, director, screenwriter, and maybe a starring role.

Anyway, once the decision-making power is handed over, now a little wind leaks here, a little rain leaks there, and the house becomes more and more dilapidated as time goes by.

But it's no wonder, after all, Li Chuanxin is just a director, and he may not be familiar with these business matters.

"After all, the screenwriter has already passed the contract, so it probably hasn't been resolved. You can only get his consent."

Lu Zhengyi tapped his fingers on the screen of his mobile phone, "But in terms of funds, why do you want to consider regaining those investors? Since they have withdrawn their capital, you can just find another investor."

"For example, me."

"Of course, the premise is that you still plan to continue and have no intention of giving up."

On the phone, there was no message on the other side of the dialog box.

After a while, a call came directly.

The caller's note was none other than Director Li.
