Chapter 154: You can still salvage it

Under the gaze of Xu Qinglime and Yang Hong, Yu Nian walked over slowly in the corner, with a reluctant look, "I said, don't mention my name, I'm a dignified director, it's a shame to help you make this kind of low-end small movie." ”

Director Yu ...... How do you ......"

Yang Hong was surprised.

She doubted Zhou Mu, but she believed in Yu Nian's ability.

After all, Yu Nian has proven himself in the market, even if in public opinion now, the most anticipated young director in the industry is Mo Huaixuan, who won the Best Director Award.

But Yang Hong knows it in her heart, and investors are more willing to believe Yu Nian.

Because of the investment residue, the return is more generous.

It's just that the urban legend is drawn, and Yu Nian has been preparing to build his own studio, and there is no rumor of starting a new film.

Coupled with the current Yu Nian, the value is different from before.

I can't watch the youth film project at all.

What's more, in Yang Hong's view, this is a project she created, from investment to casting, it is all under her control, and the director is just a tool.

With the temperament of Yu Nian, it is impossible to be a tool man.

So Yang Hong was self-aware, and did not go to Yu Nian, but under the recommendation of some people, he found a director of an advertising film.

Unexpectedly, the director of this commercial film is actually a white-eyed wolf.

At the most critical moment, he ran away.

If that director appeared in front of her, Yang Hong swore that she would definitely eat the other party alive.

"Why are you here, you ask me?"

Yu Nian was angry, pointed at Zhou Mu and shouted: "Why don't you ask this bastard, who ran to my house last night, rudely pulled me out of the door, and then came here overnight, read the script all night, and study the ...... against the filmed materials."

"I drank dozens of pounds of coffee alone. ”

Yu Nian scolded angrily, "It's made me sleepy and tired now, but I can't sleep." Such a toss will cost you at least a few years. ”

“......”

Others were silent.

Is this complaining about turning the other cheek?

It doesn't feel like ......

Everyone's emotional intelligence is still online, and if Yu Nian is really angry, it won't be possible here at all. How could outsiders force him to do things he was not happy with.

Yang Hong's eyes flashed, and she thought deeper.

Yu Nian's complaint, didn't she remind her that she decided to come over to help clean up the mess because of whose face she was looking at.

Zhou Mu......

Yang Hong's heart fluctuated.

She didn't doubt that she personally came to the door last night to beg Yu Nian, and the other party might not be willing to wade into this troubled water. But Zhou Mu came out and brought people over directly.

Is the friendship between the two already so deep?

She settled down and asked, "What is the situation with the crew now?"

"It's normal. ”

Zhou Mu paused, and glanced away, "That's right, that's ...... He also ran away, he is the leading actor, without him, the movie would not be easy to shoot. ”

Yang Hong's face was expressionless, but his heart was not calm, "If you change him, this movie ...... Is there any salvation?"

Changing the angle means that all the shots taken before are invalid.

Find another actor and reshoot it. The cost of this is certainly not small, and it is an additional expense.

Investors, sponsors, must be holding back.

Maybe that's what they meant to be.

After all, the share of investment has been clearly allocated by everyone, and if the budget is increased, how to calculate this money will definitely be troublesome.

If you don't make a substitution......

The male lead actor was caught in a scandal, and many people were disgusted and spontaneously boycotted. At that time, the box office will not be successful, the investment will fail, and the problem will be more serious.

In fact, Yang Hong has accepted her failure and doesn't want to toss anymore.

She would rather cut through the mess quickly, solve this matter directly, and then help Xu Qingling stabilize the overall situation of the company behind the scenes and deal with the upcoming wind and rain.

"If you are not saved, you will die. ”

Yu Nian spoke, very direct, "The script of the movie itself is mediocre and has no bright spots. The ability of the main creator is also garbage ......"

"The actor is okay, on the passing line. But with their acting skills, they simply can't save this movie. ”

Yu Nian commented seriously.

A good actor can give a wonderful performance in a bad movie, and sometimes even make a mediocre film vivid.

Pity......

This is a youth film, and several of the leading actors are not very old, and they belong to their true colors.

The most outstanding is Ye Zijin, who has a bit of spirituality.

Others......

Yu Nian felt that it was difficult to say a word.

He shook his head and continued, "According to my opinion, there is no need for this project to go ahead. If you have to save ...... It can only be overhauled. If I had to do it, I'd have a major surgery on the structure of the film. Overturn everything and start anew. ”

"That's the equivalent of remaking a movie. ”

Yang Hong understood, and couldn't hide the disappointment in her heart. It's already come to this point, so why waste any more time and money.

Yu Nian pouted, "So Zhou Mu didn't listen to me, he had another idea." ”

"Huh?"

The others were stunned.

Xu Qinglime was pleasantly surprised, "What's the idea?"

"The main line of this movie should be adolescence, a hazy and youthful and beautiful first love. Zhou Mu talked eloquently, "That kind of emotional ...... that is if it is about to leave"

"But it's a bit bloody, it's actually a love triangle. ”

He wanted to complain.

Young men and women, where do they have such complicated feelings.

But movies, there must be conflicts.

Plot conflicts, character conflicts, ups and downs of fate. Great sorrows and joys, great ups and downs, make people worry about it and their emotions are mobilized.

If it is as plain as water and there is no change at all, it is estimated that the audience will feel bored after watching it, and simply sleep in the theater.

A love triangle is a love triangle. didn't make it into four or five people, you love me, I love him, he loves you, and he doesn't love him.

"Love triangle, there's a benefit. ”

Zhou Mu continued: "This means that there are two lines...... Then cutting one of them and adding another line will not hurt the original structure of the movie. ”

"Huh?"

Yang Hong was stunned and a little distracted, "What do you mean is to cut the line of the male protagonist and raise the line of the second male protagonist to the official match?"

"No, it's not. ”

Zhou Mu smiled, turned around and took the thick document, "This is the script that I and Director Yu revised overnight, although it is relatively rough, but the basic structure and context are quite complete, you can take a look and give some opinions." ”

"You changed it, I didn't have much of a hand in it. Yu Nian yawned, "No, I'm going to squint for a while, don't call me if you have something." ”

He turned and walked away, catching up on sleep.

Yang Hong couldn't take care of him anymore, so she hurriedly took over the new script and couldn't wait to read it.

Xu Qingling glanced twice, and his gaze naturally turned and fell on Zhou Mu. The thick dark circles under her eyes and her haggard appearance made her feel distressed, "You...... Why don't you go and rest? ”

"It doesn't matter. ”

Zhou Mu picked up the thermos cup and opened the lid, and the rich smell of wolfberries filled the air. He poured a sip of tea and smiled: "In the daytime, it's not easy to fall asleep, and I'll talk about it at night." ”

Xu Qingling frowned, "Xiangcheng start-up press conference ......"

"I told Hu Yingshang, either he directly changed the role, and I will pay liquidated damages. Either he waits for me for a month, and then I'll report for duty. ”

Zhou Mu said casually: "He decided to wait for me ......"

In fact, he is ready to be replaced. But unexpectedly, Hu Yingshang seemed to know some of the situation, and although he got angry on the phone and scolded him, he finally agreed to his request, but only gave him 20 days of vacation.

This also surprised Zhou Mu, but also warmed his heart a little.

“...... It's a human favor. ”

Xu Qinglime's eyes lit up, "I wrote it down, and the company will return it in the future." ”

It's better to say that it is the company, but not to say herself.

Zhou Mu doesn't fight with her for this. I'll talk about it later. The top priority is to help the company get through the difficulties.

When the two were chatting, Yang Hong also hurriedly flipped through the new script.

She was surprised to find that the new script had become completely different from the original script, and seemed to sublimate the main story.

The original script, as Yu Nian commented, was mediocre......

No, it's not mediocre, it's a decent youth film.

A male protagonist is a scumbag, and a female protagonist is a bully. The two were at the same table in the new semester, and in the contact with each other, there was a collision, friction, and finally a strange feeling.

Then the second male appeared, and because of an encounter, he suddenly fell in love with the female protagonist, so he pursued it fiercely. It was because of the "assist" of the second male protagonist that the male and female protagonists opened their minds and finally determined the relationship......
