Chapter 9: Shrinking by Half...

There's a popular joke:

Wang hates beauty.

When I went to work, I saw the name of this self-employed person, and it was amazing. Everyone in the world loves beauty, and this person hates beauty. The so-called color is emptiness, and emptiness is color, how high does this need to be to comprehend? I didn't expect that there are such masters in our poor countryside.

One day I saw a real person, a very ordinary middle-aged man. I couldn't help but ask him, your father must have been a very learned man?

He replied, "My dad doesn't know a single word."

I'm shocked, so your name is so special?

He said, my father has a high political consciousness and resolutely opposes Soviet revisionism and American hegemonism, so my brother's name is Wang Anti-Soviet, and my name is Wang Hates the United States...

What about Hate Water?

He really liked the sentence in Li Yu's "Seeing Huan, Lin Hua Thanked Chunhong", "Since people grow and hate water and grow east"...

And Lu Xun...

All kinds of interpretations.

What do you say is there to interpret "From the Garden of Herbs to the Three Flavors Study"?

It's just Brother Xun's recollection of his private school career, anyway, when it comes to Lu Xun, it must be 'exposing, revealing, and satirizing the darkness of feudal society', and that's not all, a group of people have to use knives to carve a 'morning' on a good desk, and some even carve a typo 'drought'...

It's like sugar candy now...

She was chatting endlessly about her opinion of Mu Wanqiu.

“... Mu Wanqiu is the deepest lurking, and her identity is actually a spy from Stationmaster Wu who broke into our army!"

"Stop for a moment!"

Lu Xiaoran finally couldn't help it.

Tangtang looked at Lu Xiaoran: "... Am I wrong?"

"No, where did you see that?"

Is this still "Latent"?

Lu Xiaoran asked herself that she was also one of the screenwriters, the first to see the complete script, and the main line of the whole story was Yu Zecheng...

How did it get to Tangtang's mouth, and Mu Wanqiu became the protagonist?

What else is she the deepest lurking?

Why did Mu Wanqiu live next door to Yu Zecheng?

Because it's so easy to arrange the plot!

That's right, this is Chiguoguo's logic BUG, but in order to promote the plot better, many times, the small problems in logic can be forgiven!

After all, it's not a real spy war documentary...

"Then according to your analysis, it is also fake that you fell in love with Yu Zecheng in late autumn?

"Huh? I haven't figured it out yet..."

"When we talk about character analysis, we don't ask you to analyze the assumptions that don't exist in the script, everything you say is based on the premise that Mu Wanqiu is a scheming woman, but this does not exist, we created Mu Wanqiu, it was created according to the image of a poor woman during the Republic of China, and I didn't think so much!"

Flipping through the notebook, Lu Xiaoran frowned, this word is not very good-looking...

After trying to make out a few lines, he asked, "Have you read the original?"

"You mean the original book of Latent?"

"Yes. ”

"I read it, but it's the script..."

Lu Xiaoran interrupted her again and said, "You shouldn't watch it!"

After a pause, he continued: "If you need to use the original book to understand the plot and analyze the characters, I will tell you, I didn't let you read it, it means that there is no need to read the original book!"

The original work of "Latent" is a short story, less than 10,000 words, and there is no Mu Wanqiu in it at all...

Sugar Candy weakly explained: "I just think reading the original book helps to understand the script..."

"Forget it, it's not a problem to read it anyway, but you can't analyze Mu Wanqiu according to what you just thought, you have to remember that Mu Wanqiu loves Yu Zecheng!"

"Then why did she marry Xie Ruolin?"

"Didn't the script say it, Mu Liancheng ran away with his RB wife, and she has no source of livelihood..."

"At the end, the boss of the late autumn is called Akutagawa Yasusaku, a Japanese-Chinese, and the chairman of the Chinese Merchant Shipping Association, is it possible that this person is Mu Liancheng?"

“... Forget it, you can think whatever you want, let's go, I'll send you home!"

This girl's imagination is too strong, and she is simply the spokesperson of 'brain supplement'!

You can analyze anything...

......

When he returned to his home, Lu Xiaoran had just entered the door, and the auxiliary device shouted: "How is it, how is it?"

"How's that?"

"How's Sugar Candy?"

“... Her imagination is too strong, she actually thinks that Mu Wanqiu is the real protagonist!"

"Who asked you this? I asked, are you in love with her? Is it possible to use a weapon?"

Lu Xiaoran was speechless...

"I've only met her three times, with what weapon?"

“... Don't you covet her body?"

"My ambition is to find a soul mate and spend my life together!"

Love is willing to win the heart of one person, and the white head is not separated!

A lifetime of a couple!

It's just that it's like the person Cuicui has been waiting for in "Border City": he may come tomorrow or never.

“... Who told you to marry her? I just want you to shoot, don't be so plain, it's boring!"

Lu Xiaoran paused for a moment, and then asked rhetorically, "Didn't I go to the club yesterday?"

"Can that be the same?"

“... I won't quarrel with you, the call is coming!"

It's Ning Hao...

He told Lu Xiaoran that "Crazy Stone" won five Golden Horse nominations: Best Original Screenplay, Best Feature Film, Best Director, Best Editing and Best New Actor...

Lu Xiaoran is the nominee for Best New Actor!

Xiao Luzi was quite surprised, but he didn't expect the Golden Horse Awards to nominate him...

"Are you going or not?"

Lu Xiaoran thought for a while: "If you don't go, you don't have time..."

There is really no time, the filming cycle of "Latent" is 60 days, as the leading actor and co-director, he has to be there the whole time, in addition, the husky said, 'Don't think about the Golden Horse, the Golden Statue, it's useless!'

Anyway, the auxiliary device doesn't have a good impression of the golden horse and the golden statue, and describes it as a small circle game.

......

"Stone" was supposed to be released in Hong Kong in September, and the box office was dismal, with only 130,000 in the first week of release...

This is normal, the mainland taste of 'stone' is too strong, and the dialects in it that make mainland audiences unhappy are not understood by Hong Kong people at all, and they can't laugh at all.

The first week went straight down...

The lack of strength at the Hong Kong box office has directly affected copyright sales.

The distribution of South Korea and Japanese benzene, which was basically negotiated, is now no longer playing, and only sells the rights in four Southeast Asian countries, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and Malaysia...

After all, "Stone" does not have familiar actors, and there are no big scenes.

In recent years, except for established Hong Kong filmmakers, it has been difficult for ordinary Chinese-language films to open up sales in Southeast Asia.

As for the Taiwanese market, don't even think about it.

Nowadays, mainland films are subject to a quota of 10 films per year for release in Taiwan, and film distributors are required to submit applications to the relevant Taiwan authorities on a first-come, first-served basis.

This year's quota has already been decided, "Stone", what is that?

In other words, Lu Xiaoran's investment in "Stone" has shrunk by at least half of the money he made - overseas copyrights are all settled in US dollars.

Originally, it was estimated that I could earn at least more than one million, but now it is good to have 800,000...
