"Brother Bo, yes, I'm Lu Ze, this is the case, I recently got a book, but I'm not very satisfied, do you see you have time recently? If you have time, you come over to help me change it, this thing has to be done by your major, I have a high school graduate, how can I change this thing? It has to be you big screenwriters, yes, because the work is a bit urgent, I want to find a few more people to help, no problem? That's great, then I'll wait for you in the magic capital, and when it's time to call my brother, I'll pick you up, okay, but it helped me a lot, haha, okay, let's have a good drink when it's time. ”

hung up Deng Bo's phone, although the results of "Wrong Love" were not as ideal as imagined, but this really has nothing to do with Deng Bo, it was purely written by Xiao Fengying himself, Deng Bo's screenwriting ability is still undoubted, so Lu Ze set several screenwriters who wrote commercial scripts very well, including him.

Lu Ze absolutely refuses bad movies, but since Li Shanjun said that he gave him the right to change the script, then to be honest, Bai Xiqun's rights have been robbed by Lu Ze, and now if the crew sets up a project and starts filming, then Lu Ze is the boss of the crew, so the temptation for Lu Ze is still very big.

It's not that Lu Ze wants to be this drama bully, but even the company's top management doesn't trust Bai Xiqun's ability, how can Lu Ze rest assured that he will hand over the "steering wheel" of the crew?

But it's too early to say this, if the script hasn't reached the point where Lu Ze likes it, then Lu Ze still won't shoot it, so he will help the company find someone and change the script, and he won't have anything to do.

Lu Ze still won't refuse this, the company hasn't signed a formal screenwriter yet, so the screenwriter's side doesn't have a lot of connections, if you purely take money to find someone, you will definitely spend more money than now, not to mention, and people may not put too much effort into it, after all, this is not a book they wrote themselves.

has to rely on relationships, invite a group of people over, rely on friendship and money, let them work harder, and change this script that doesn't belong to them, and Lu Ze has also filmed a lot of scenes, and he has made a lot of big screenwriters, and he happens to have this connection.

If Li Shanjun asked Lu Ze to shoot a script that he didn't like, then Lu Ze couldn't do it for 10,000, but if Li Shanjun asked Lu Ze to help find someone to handle the script, Lu Ze wouldn't mind helping.

The mobile phone turned around a few times in his hand and was thrown on the table casually, Lu Ze rubbed his face with both hands, let out a long breath, turned off the computer, drank the last sip of tea, put it in the dishwasher, returned to the bedroom and turned on the bedside lamp and read the book silently.

.......

Watching the plane land on the airport runway, Lu Ze put on his sunglasses and took Liu Bin into the airport, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, a middle-aged man with a fat, oily hair and a beard slowly walked towards Lu Ze with a suitcase, and waved his hand after seeing Lu Ze.

"Sixth brother, long time no see, long time no see, it's long enough, come and give me the luggage, this time it's really troublesome for you, come all the way from Shudu. ”

"I don't like to hear this, what's not troublesome, good brother don't talk about this, you Lu Ze asked me to come over and do a favor, can I still come?

"Haha, yes, let's go this way, I'll have a drink or two with you in a while, and I won't say anything hypocritical. ”

"That's pretty much it. ”

Liu Bin helped pull the suitcase, Lu Ze talked and laughed with this man, chatted very warmly, don't say his real name, just say pen name, Huang Liu, the top screenwriter in China, forty-four years old this year, he wrote the script of the most high-grossing domestic commercial film last year, which can be said to be a famous name in the industry, and Lu Ze got acquainted with him because of his other work.

"The King of Fighters".

An hour and a half later, the car stopped at the door of the hotel, it was now early two o'clock in the afternoon, and the meal had not yet arrived, after Lu Ze accompanied him to deliver the luggage, the three of them set off again and headed for Qianshijia.

As soon as the elevator door opened, Meng Nixin stood at the door, saw Lu Ze coming in with Huang Liu, and hurriedly ran over to say hello to Lu Ze, and then held Huang Liu's hand.

"Teacher Huang, I'm tired, please inside, this is my business card. ”

Of course, Lu Ze knows what this person is thinking, but if you want to pry Lu Ze's connections, you also have to see if people can look at you, people who write and beg for a living usually don't like to associate with business people, first, the circle is different, and secondly, these people also feel that they can't play with their hearts and eyes as business people, Huang Liu is obviously such a person.

After taking the business card, he just said a few words to Meng Nixin, and then put the topic on Lu Ze, until he pushed open the door of the conference room, he suddenly snorted and turned his head to look at Lu Ze.

Deng Bo, Li Congwen, Yu Tai, Qin Fei, these people are all Huang Liu's good friends, Lu Ze also knows in his heart, in a circle, there must be friends and enemies, and the people Lu Ze is looking for are very close to each other.

"What about so many people? I thought it was just one or two, Qin Fei, what are you doing here, you owe me a bottle of Martell and don't give it until now, are you embarrassed to appear in front of me? I've never seen you pick out like this, you have dragged me for three years for thousands of dollars, get out!"

A group of people are making trouble, the relationship between them is still very good, and they can drink together at night to catch up with the old days, for them, it is also a pleasant thing to cooperate with a book.

Lu Ze pulled out a stool and sat down, listening to their jokes, in fact, these screenwriters are not as literate as outsiders think, they look no different from ordinary people, only after picking up the pen, will they show their talents to the outside.

After a while, Bai Xiqun and Feng Changhao, Minister of Commerce, walked in, Feng Changhao was okay, Bai Xiqun was indeed obviously stunned, these five screenwriters are all big guys to him, they are the kind of people who can fly Huang Tengda if they ask for their books, but yesterday I received news that Lu Ze was in charge of the script, and it was not under his control.

There are usually only two people who can set the script, one is the producer, that is, the investment father, and the other is the director, I have never heard that the script of that play is set by the actors, but now the situation is like this, Bai Xiqun knows very well in his heart that he was seized by Lu Ze, and now he is just a puppet, maybe he still has to be commanded by Lu Ze in this play.

Whoever comes to this situation can't be happy, even if he has a very high opinion of Lu Ze, now he has been squandered, in the end, he just silently pulled out the chair, without saying a word, he had a hurdle in his heart, but he could only accept it.

"Okay, Lu Ze, everyone is here, right? Then show us the book, why don't you come here for afternoon tea? Hurry up. ”

seemed to be a little anxious by Huang Liu's loss, Qin Fei quickly diverted the topic and asked Lu Ze for the script, Lu Ze was amused by Qin Fei like this, shook his head, took out five scripts and put them in front of the screenwriters.

"Zhuoma, Xi Tibetan people, Sixth Brother, have you heard of this person?"

The original screenwriter's name was written on the cover of the script, and the five of them exchanged it, but they didn't remember who called this pen name in the circle, and finally determined that it was a stinky fish and rotten shrimp.

Lu Ze leaned on the back of the chair and watched the five screenwriters flip through the script, his brows became tighter and tighter, and his mouth made a smack from time to time, obviously it was the setting of the script that embarrassed them, and the speed of turning the pages became faster and faster, obviously impatient.

About an hour later, Deng Bo, who was good-tempered, just closed the script and threw it aside, away from himself, while Huang Liu, who was grumpy, was methodically tearing the script, tearing the paper into pieces, and then throwing it into the trash.

Yu Tai groaned, took a sip of tea, raised his head to look at Lu Ze, and gave his opinion.

"This notebook....... I suggest don't change it, it's not necessary, it's better to write another one with this effort, it is estimated that writing another one is faster than changing, and the level set is much higher than this. ”

"I also think,First of all, let's talk about the shortcomings of this book.,The framework of the story is not big.,An ordinary person meets a little monster.,For the little monster to finally defeat the big boss.,There are too many of these films.,There's no novelty.,And it's seriously unreasonable.,This kind of book may be popular in 2000....... The little monster is not as good as Huba. ”

Li Congwen gave a very objective opinion, to be honest, Lu Ze also feels that this book is very similar to "Monster Hunt", although it is not plagiarism, but it is basically a way, this kind of film wants to be popular in 2021, unless the people of the whole country are thrown into the mountains to work for a year, and after coming out, the entertainment spirit is empty, and there is the possibility of fire, and Lu Ze feels ...... Monster Hunt sucks enough.

"May I ask Minister Feng, what is your shooting budget? I have an idea, but it is very expensive, it is estimated that it will be very, very expensive, if your budget is not high, I will not say anything. ”

Hearing Huang Liu's question, Feng Changhao ...... "The budget should be about 300 million, but the company attaches great importance to this project, and if it is really needed, there is no problem with additional investment." ”

"Tell me then?"

"Absolutely. ”

"My idea is, this script is scrapped, don't want it, let's write a new one, if you have to shoot this theme, it's better to shoot an epic war, just like "The Lord of the Rings", according to ancient mythology, to add your own settings, to enrich the story, you don't need the series of mythological stories, just the image of the gods and monsters inside, I imagined that if it was written well, it would be possible to make a sequel. ”

This concept is a bit interesting, but it is still very hazy, which makes other screenwriters a little interested, but frowning, without a clue, Qin Fei knew that Huang Liu must have an idea, and involuntarily glanced at Huang Liu.

"Can you be specific?"

Seemingly proud of his brain, Huang Liu deliberately bought a pass, showed a lewd smile, took a sip of tea, lit a cigarette and deliberately stretched his arm.

"How about writing a story about an era when humans were the food of youkai, and people came together to survive and rebelled against youkai?"

"It's still a bit old-fashioned, the Internet is rotten, and if you want to be popular, you can only rely on special effects, but it's not interesting. ”

"And what if we add another subject setting?"

"What?"

Huang Liu took a cigarette in his mouth, exhaled a puff of smoke from his nose, and glanced at everyone.

"What if....... What if God is dead, how about being killed?"

“......”
