Chapter 8 Recruitment of Assistants
Li Wenqiang looked at Ye Bufan, who was staring straight at him, and asked embarrassedly.
At this time, Ye Bufan was thinking about a new question, so he automatically eliminated Li Wenqiang's doubts in his mind.
Anyway, a misunderstanding is a misunderstanding, and it's not a big deal.
Compared to this incident, the script that was first taken seriously by himself became a big problem, he had to choose the wrong direction, make the audience of the film smaller, and also make the company lose money smoothly, and not let the system and employees see it at a glance.
"It's very difficult......
Ye Bufan roughly thought about it.
The key is to choose the right subject matter.
Campus, science fiction, anti-Japanese themes, which have a large audience and are relatively easy to make money, he will not touch, these themes are all pits, and they are all big pits.
These themes are so popular in the current parallel world that even a pig may fly on the tuyere!
In this case, you can only make a fantasy film, and it is better to make an old-fashioned ** zombie film.
The current fantasy market is not as good as before, and the box office masterpieces used to support the scene are all old movies from decades ago, especially zombie films have been crowded into no market by various zombie films and horror films in China.
So shoot zombie movies steadily!
And it can also come out with a sequel and continue to lose money.
The more Ye Bufan thought about it, the more beautiful he became, and all aspects were taken into account.
In the end, I came to the conclusion: "Shoot! Give me a shot to the labor!"
The crew, venue, and actors are all ready, and the costumes can be customized immediately, and now the only problem left is to fool Li Wenqiang.
Of course, in fact, as long as the system agrees with him, it is okay if he does not fool the employees, what he says, what the employees do, as an investor and the president of the company, he still has this right.
But Li Wenqiang also invested in this movie, not to mention anything else, you have to give him some hope, right? He, Ye Bufan, is not an unreasonable person.
Moreover, if he didn't coax Li Wenqiang, he felt that his company had no future, so what should he do if he quit his work? Where did he go to find such a bad director and editor?
Ye Bufan looked at Li Wenqiang, who was full of lovelessness on the side, coughed lightly, stood up and looked at Li Wenqiang on the side: "The theme of our company's first film has been decided. ”
"It's a good thing! Is filming about to start? By the way, Wen Qiang, as a director, I should be able to read the script, right? Give me a look. ”
"There's no script yet, otherwise why do you think I'm calling you?"
"Ah, why? Shouldn't it be the screenwriter's business if the script isn't finished? What's my director's business?"
"I'll leave you with the position of screenwriter, and I'm not surprised? And we're going to start filming in three days, and we're going to work hard for the box office of this movie! I'm sure you can do both the director and the screenwriter well!"
"Huh?"
"Ah, what! Have faith in yourself, didn't you write novels before, and if you can write novels, why can't you write screenplays?"
"I'm just a street fighter, hey!"
"Rest assured that the salary is doubled, the theme of the movie is positioned as a zombie film, and the plot pays tribute to the previous ** zombie films, except for the two leading actors, the remaining supporting roles brought by the reliable ones can be changed if you think they are not suitable, go to Hengdian to pick a few satisfactory special actors, and find some actors who are not interested in the small roles to make do with it, okay, if there is no problem, the meeting will be dismissed, remember to start filming in three days. ”
......
It's more than 7 p.m.
Li Wenqiang stood at the door of the dormitory next door, holding a piece of ghost-like printing paper in his hand, which was densely filled with various patterns and words.
"Come in!"
"Pei, you agreed to my request! Are you really willing to be the editor of our crew?" Li Wenqiang looked at with joy on his face, and the young man in front of him was leaning on the bed and playing games lazily.
"Well, I agreed, is there a script?"
"Also...... No!" Li Wenqiang replied awkwardly.
"Hehe, as expected, is it going to make a zombie movie? And it's the same routine as the ** movie decades ago?"
"Can it work? Yang, filming will start on Thursday, and the time is a little tight. ”
"It's not the first time I've been a film editor, especially with such a simple script. ”
......
"Wen Qiang, I've almost revised your idea, you can come and take a look. Pei said.
Li Wenqiang hurriedly nodded: "Yang, you say." ”
Pei Weizhu pulled a chair from the side and began to tell Li Wenqiang his general idea.
"The general framework of your story is very good, but it is also very old-fashioned, I did not modify it according to the extraordinary requirements, but I added a little funny scene to it to arouse the audience's desire to watch, and produce a comedic effect, this movie is a low-budget fantasy comedy with a lot of zombie plots. ”
"So, if we want to make this film well, we have to make the best effect with the least amount of resources. ”
"I have roughly considered the following aspects, of course, you are the director to decide whether to adopt your own decision, roles, scenes, emotional scenes can be saved, especially emotional scenes can also be considered not to shoot if they can, to save time and resources, after all, good steel should be used on the blade, but special effects must be invested in money, not saved. ”
"Pei, why? If you don't make it clear, it's hard for me to explain, after all, we are making a film similar to the beautiful country web d
AMA's Micro Film ......"
"I can't tell, but my intuition and judgment tell me that this will be successful, and it will affect the success of the film and television industry in the future!"
"Of course, do you want to think about it, or the sentence just now, you are the director, and you can do it yourself. ”
"Pei ......" Li Wenqiang looked at Pei Wei, who had regained confidence in front of him, and silently drowned out the doubts that he was about to speak.
"Wen Qiang, what's wrong, is there a problem?"
"Oh? no, of course not, then I'm leaving, and don't forget that the movie is going to start shooting on Thursday. ”
"Well, I see, I'll go back then. ”
