Chapter 49 Recognition
Gu Jun, who had been talking for more than an hour, only felt that his mouth was dry, picked up a glass of water, and drank it cleanly.
With a long sigh of relief, he asked, "How's it going?"
Chen Kaige, who was wiping his mouth after eating, asked, "It's good.... Especially this kumquat stuffy oxtail, the tendons of the oxtail and the sweetness and sourness of the kumquat are really... Gee. β
Chen Kaige, who smashed his mouth twice, had an endless aftertaste.
Gu Jun was in a hurry, Lao Tzu didn't even have to eat, so he told you for an hour here, and you told me that oxtail was delicious?
Believe it or not, Lao Tzu found a bull to beat you, and used a bullwhip as a leather whip to whip you.
Gu Jun's extremely sad expression was taken into Chen Kaige's eyes, and he patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, I listened to what you said." Aren't you afraid of offending people with this idea, especially in the media?"
"Don't be afraid, anyway, there is a tall top when the sky falls. That's you. β
"Get out. β
"Don't think I'm joking, I'm serious. You think, if you don't shoot well, the media and the audience will scold you. If you shoot well, at least there will be an audience standing on your side, and besides, who doesn't know what urine sex is in the media, if you have milk, you are a mother. β
Gu Jun, who explained seriously, was stared at by Chen Kaige, but he didn't panic, and the latter didn't speak.
Chen Kaige, who just shook his head, wiped his hands clean, and began to carefully read the script compiled by Gu Jun.
Chen Feihong is not idle, after all, he is the executive director of the crew, if Chen Kaige really plans to use this plan, then there is no problem for him to familiarize himself with it in advance.
The script is actually very simple, after all, five days is too short, and Gu Jun can only hand over a small part of the content.
What he just said was a relatively detailed framework that he had laid out over the course of two days.
After a long time, Chen Kaige finally put the script on the table, and it was obvious that he was a little moved.
Because he placed the script neatly and touched it with his hand.
He took off his eyes and rubbed his eyes, and said: "In the later plot, you can guarantee that it will be interesting to maintain this level without breaking the entire framework." β
"I want to try. β
"If there is anything you need help with, please ask for it. β
"There are too many cumbersome things, I can't be busy alone, can you assign me a life assistant?"
"Yes, I'll arrange one for you tomorrow. β
Pointing at Anxi, Gu Jun said, "No need to arrange, I just want her." β
"Me?" Anxi, who had shrunk his head like a quail all night, came to his senses and said angrily:
"Gu Jun, don't take such revenge. I'm an actor anyway, how can I be your assistant, or live. Impossible, absolutely impossible. β
"You are ungrateful. Gu Jun replied.
"It's about the dignity of an actor. β
"You're just ungrateful. β
"I'm a girl for you as a life assistant, I don't want to be innocent?"
"You're just ungrateful. β
"Can you change the word?"
"You will take revenge, cross the river and tear down the bridge, forget the classics, know the kindness and do not repay it, and repay the virtue with resentmentΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
The angry Anxi clenched his waist with both hands into fists, puffed out his cheeks like a frog, and stared at Gu Jun fiercely: "Uncle Gu, please shut up." I'm not going to listen to you. β
In this way, Gu Jun's first threshold passed, and he also received a position called Anxi's life assistant and temporary screenwriter of the crew.
ββββββββββ
In a certain room of the New Century Grand Hotel, Chen Kaige, who had made a pot of tea, sat in front of the window, looking at the twinkling galaxy in the sky.
In fact, his heart is not as calm as it is in the hotel lobby.
He read Gu Jun's script, and it seemed that it was just a discussion from the point of online violence to the bone marrow, but this was almost a point of view.
If he writes like this according to Gu Jun's ideas, then the expressiveness of many scenes in his own script is not enough to support such in-depth thinking.
What he remembered the most was not Gu Jun's eloquent talk, but his sentence: "They don't care whether it's right or wrong, whether it's right or wrong, they only eat human blood steamed buns." β
This reminded him of an online short film [A Bloody Case Caused by Steamed Buns] seven years ago.
At that time, if it wasn't for the dissuasion of the people around me, I was angry and really planned to sue Hu Ge, the director of this short story.
Think about it, my mood at that time should be the same as Ye Lanqiu, right?
No, it's not the same.
I'm just being spoofed and I'm angry like this.
Ye Lanqiu's experience is ridiculed by the whole people, passers-by, friends, bosses, teachers, classmates and lovers are all misunderstanding and even slandering her, and it is also the dignity and innocence that women value the most.
Think about it, in such a situation, how many people will go to eat, drink and have fun like a nobody, and in the end they will die with humiliation without even a word of defense?
To be honest, Gu Jun's sentence 'I have no heart' makes some sense.
The main reason is that even Chen Kaige is facing the problem of recovering the cost of the movie.
In 2008, "Mei Lanfang" had a total cost of 80 million and a box office of 110 million.
2010's "Zhao's Orphan" cost 100 million and had a box office of 190 million.
According to the domestic producer, 33% of the box office can be recovered, and it will definitely lose money in China.
Although it is possible to barely make up for the deficit with various sales abroad, it will take an extremely long time.
He is Chen Kaige, although he is not the No. 1 director in China, but no one has any objection to saying that he occupies a seat in the top three.
But he can't even recover the cost like this, which is simply embarrassing and conspicuous.
Why did the investors of their own movies change their stubble, and they all lost money.
This time, he plans to use "Search" to prove that his film can recover its cost.
So he just wants to tell a simple story, since Gu Jun can see that this story is too bland, then when it is released, such Gu Jun will definitely not be one or two.
Maybe when "Searching" is released, he will experience the feeling of grievance seven years ago againΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·
It's so hard.
Chen Hong, who didn't touch Chen Kaige, rubbed his eyes and woke up, and saw Chen Kaige sitting on the sofa by the window in the dark.
Getting up, she grabbed Chen Kaige's neck from behind: "Kaige, you've been sitting here for almost a night." What's bothering?"
"I think so. Chen Kaige, who moved down, continued: "Do you remember that kid named Gu Jun. β
"It's the stunned young man who said that you had no heart and was ashamed to comment on the script?"
"I was stunned, but I still had some ideas. Clicking on the script on the table, Chen Kaige continued: "This is the result of his five days. β
Chen Hong, who only glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze, said calmly: "Oh. Let's sleep. It's late. β
"You're not curious?"
