Chapter 8: Black Will
"I convinced my mom...... So I came to Huaxia, I first went to Shangjing, oh, you know it's not easy to live there......"
"So I came to Tianhai again, and then signed a contract with Dusty ......"
"Oh, that supermarket is right in front of it, and that's where I bought my quilt, and it only cost fifty bucks......"
"By the way, where did I just go? yes, I'm thankful for my agent bangs, but I haven't been given a role in three months now......"
"Director Lin Ti, if, I mean if, your next play has a role suitable for me......"
"Please, give me a chance, just give me an audition. Will said with sincere anticipation.
He looked a little anxious.
Lin Ti turned to look at him, Will's eyes were pleading at this time, this man was carrying the scars that life had given him at the moment.
Being looked at by Lin Ti so seriously, Will looked a little at a loss, but then realized that this might be observing him, so he quickly stood up, nervously tidied up the corners of his clothes, and carefully smoothed out every wrinkle.
"Why did you come to Huaxia?" Lin Ti suddenly asked him.
"Uh...... I think there will be a lot of opportunities here, a few years ago Chinese films just entered the world, there will be a lot of actors here, different nationalities, different skin colors. Will racked his brains as he spoke, his hands swinging unconsciously and focused.
“...... The country is getting back to where it was, so I'm here. After Will finished speaking, he subconsciously licked his dry lips and looked at Lin Ti worriedly, obviously taller and stronger than Lin Ti, but at this time, in front of Lin Ti, he was weak like a dog beside his master, waiting for the bones that the master might give.
Lin Ti listened quietly, and after he finished speaking, he thought about it, suddenly smiled, stretched out his hand and said calmly: "Congratulations, buddy, you passed the interview, and I will add a role suitable for you in the script." ”
What is the script? It's a toy in his hand.
As long as he wants to, it's just a matter of adding a line, and it can also bring some international feel to the film and win over some black audiences.
What distribution, business, he is not good at, but in the world of cinema, he is the king.
Will subconsciously held Lin Ti's hand, and when he realized what was happening, tears fell suddenly, and he asked tremblingly, "Really?"
"Yes, of course, you made it man. Lin Ti smiled, people are as light as chrysanthemums, and at this moment he felt that bringing the taste of success to others was also a kind of happiness.
Life is full of flavors, and if you understand it carefully, there are deficiencies everywhere, and you can be fulfilled everywhere.
......
In the next two days, Lin Ti has been adapting the script and drawing the storyboard script in the system, the input method in the system can be used with ideas, it is convenient to modify anything, and the same is true for the storyboard, which can save a lot of time, in the past two days, he scrapped about 50,000 words of the script, three or four versions of the setting, and referred to "Rescue from the Center of the Earth", "Adventure in the Center of the Earth" and other movies, before finally determining the framework of the new script, and the next thing is to fill in.
On September 1st, at noon, Lin Ti opened his eyes from the sofa in the hall, smiled with relief, picked up his mobile phone, and sent a message to Li Lan on WeChat: "Aunt Lan, I'm ready here, let's find everyone for a meeting in the afternoon." ”
After a while, a message came from there: "Okay, the first meeting will be held at three o'clock in the afternoon, and you can just come to the company directly." ”
"Roger. Lin Ti responded with a smile, and an inexplicable brilliance appeared in his eyes.
Got to work.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Ti appeared in the conference room of the production department of the Chenguang Building with a stack of materials, as soon as he entered the door, he saw about a dozen people sitting in the conference room, Li Lan sat on the top, and got up with a smile when he saw him, and gently introduced him: "This is Lin Ti, the chief director of our project team, everyone is welcome." ”
"Papapa......" More than a dozen people clapped their hands neatly.
Lin Ti looked a little shy on this occasion, and bent down slightly to thank everyone embarrassed, looking embarrassed.
"Xiao Ti, you sit here, I'll introduce you. Li Lan controlled the audience, pointed to the position of his lower left hand and said, and then introduced him one by one: "This is the coordinator Jiang Tao." ”
"This is the coordinator Li Qiu. ”
"This is executive production supervisor Du Wei. ”
"It's a live production ......"
"It's a ...... of life filmmaking"
"This is the total photographic ......"
"This is the special effects directing ......"
As soon as he slipped down, it was all the bosses of the crew, assistant directors, actors, assistant directors, on-site directors, chief artists, etc., most of these people had a set of teams under their hands, Lin Ti Everyone would say hello, look carefully and then write down, this will be his first complete team in reality.
After these people were introduced, Li Lan smiled and said to Lin Ti gently: "Xiao Ti, you may be directing a crew of so many people for the first time, if you have anything to ask them, come to me if you have anything, I am the chief producer of this movie." ”
How many people were present? Li Lan had a toothache when they heard this, this was supporting the scene for this young director, yes, this is another young master, otherwise how could he become a director at such a young age? And how long has Li Lan not done the work of a producer?
But it doesn't matter to them, they just get paid and do their own thing.
Lin Ti smiled and nodded, with some gratitude in his eyes, and then turned around and said to the secretary in the conference room: "Please copy this information, one for each person, thank you." ”
When the secretary left with the thick materials in his hand, Lin Ti said to everyone again: "Everyone, please take a seat." ”
After everyone sat down, Lin Ti's face became more serious: "I don't know if everyone has read the script, but I have changed the script a little bit at home in the past few days, so I will tell you about it first." ”
When it comes to the professional aspect, Lin Ti naturally exudes the momentum of controlling the whole audience, and said without doubt: "The main changes are as follows. ”
"One: A new black character has been added, and there is an extra straight line, and the plot is too thin if there are only two heroes and heroines in the secret realm of the center of the earth. ”
No matter what everyone thought, they were listening carefully at the moment, someone raised his hand to signal that he had something to say, Lin Ti raised his hand and said, "If you have something to say, we will discuss it when the materials come, listen to me first." ”
The man put down his hand in a daze, but he didn't expect that the young man who looked like a good old man just now had such a strong aura.
After everyone quieted down, Lin Ti continued: "Second, the structure of the geocentric scene in the original script was too thin, so I added a few scenes, and there are storyboard scripts in the main scenes and other materials. ”
"Third, the emotional drama is too abrupt, just like in American blockbusters, we have to shoot our values. ”
"Fourth ......"
Li Lan looked at Lin Ti, who had a serious face and talked eloquently, a smile appeared on her face, and she was now more and more optimistic about this young man who suddenly appeared.
......
While chatting, the secretary pushed open the door, and two men entered the door with a lot of information in their hands, and then began to send information to everyone without saying a word.
Lin Ti was almost finished, so he said in a summary manner: "Give everyone half an hour to read the information, and after half an hour, it will be time to ask questions, start now." ”
