Chapter Seventy-Eight: Greed
After reading the synopsis, she skipped the preparation, investment, and publicity ideas on the previous pages, and began to read a more detailed story outline, as well as the script later.
This look, I was fascinated.
Han Shunzhang's mobile phone rang, he answered the phone, seemed to say something to Li Qian, and then said hello to himself, Lu Lingxi looked up blankly, didn't hear what he said clearly, just nodded subconsciously, and then immersed himself in the story again.
Han Shunzhang had something to do, so he got up and left.
Li Qian saw that she was fascinated, but he was not in a hurry, so he slowly drank tea and waited for her.
After more than half an hour, she finally put down the script in her hand, sighed, sighed, and said, "This story is really well written!"
Li Qian smiled and didn't answer.
"Autumn Fairy Tale" is certainly a good story!
The original version of this movie in another time and space, released in 1987, tells the story of a young girl who went to the United States to find her boyfriend who was studying abroad, only to learn that her boyfriend had empathized with her boyfriend, and she was depressed, and when she was stranded there, she gradually fell in love with a "rotten person" in the bits and pieces of life.
When this movie first appeared, it won the Sky Film Awards that year, so that "Fairy Hair" won the Golden Horse Actor and the like, not to mention, more importantly, a few years later, at the beginning of the 21st century in another time and space, Hong Kong people themselves selected the ten best movies in Hong Kong's history, "The True Color of Heroes" ranked first, which is expected, and "Autumn Fairy Tale" ranked second, which is almost indisputable- After years of precipitation, it is still recognized as the best romance movie in Hong Kong, and even surpasses countless Hong Kong classic movies, and has been lifted to a very high position, almost a god.
There are even many people who believe that this movie is not only the most outstanding love movie in the history of Hong Kong films, but also looks at the history of Chinese films, and even the history of global films, this love movie is an absolute classic among similar movies!
Some people say it's "spotless and pure", while others say it's "a beautiful love in the depths of heart-pounding years".
Such a love movie, Li Qian knows that Lu Lingxi will definitely like it.
And she really showed that she couldn't put it down.
But after sighing, Li Qian was waiting for her to say something, but instead of speaking, she didn't even raise her head, she opened the script of "Autumn Fairy Tale" again, and read it again.
Seeing this, Li Qian shook his head and smiled.
Anyway, his recent state is still on vacation and he hasn't come back, Lu Lingxi is fascinated, and he is drinking tea on the side, waiting for her in a daze.
By the time she finished reading it again, another half an hour had passed.
When he looked up at her occasionally, Li Qian noticed that this time she was looking very carefully and slowly, as if she was chewing the story bit by bit.
Moreover, when she finished reading the script again, Li Qian obviously noticed that when she closed the script and reached out to get the second script, her hand paused.
Then, she sighed and chose to give up.
Returning her gaze to the "Autumn Fairy Tale" in her hand, she sighed again and said, "This story is really good. ”
Then she finally looked up and said, "I love it." ”
Li Qian smiled and said, "It's good to like it." Then he asked, "Why don't you look at the second one?"
She laughed and shook her head, "Don't look at it." I'm afraid the second one is too good. ”
After a pause, she said a little embarrassedly: "I'm still quite greedy. So...... Well, I still don't watch it, but after watching it, in case I want both of them, I want to shoot them...... Alas...... It's better to be content, to be able to shoot this story and shoot it well, is the next most important thing. ”
Li Qian thought for a while and said, "Okay." ”
But at this time, Lu Lingxi couldn't help but say, "But...... Can you leave me with the second story? Don't give it to anyone else for now?"
Li Qian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then couldn't help laughing.
Still greedy!
Lu Lingxi was embarrassed and explained: "You don't know, since the filming of "Love to the End", I have been thinking that in the future, I must shoot a love story that is different from others, and shoot the kind of faint and timeless love story that is particularly flavorful and will make people occasionally think about it and remember it for a long time. It was also from that time that I was already thinking about how to write and conceive this story, and I also asked Lao Chen to help me think, but, two years have passed, Lao Chen has given me several love books, and I am also thinking about it, and I am looking for all kinds of love on the market, but I have never met one that can make my heart move. ”
Speaking of this, she patted the "Autumn Fairy Tale" in her hand and said, "Like this." Then he continued: "I don't dare to watch the second one now, but I know from this script that the second one will definitely be very good." You can always think of and write good stories that we can't think of, and you will especially have my appetite. So, please, leave me a moment, okay?"
Li Qian pretended to groan, but after a while, he still smiled and nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll keep it for you." When you're done filming this one, I'll give you a second one. ”
Lu Lingxi laughed obviously very happily and thanked him.
But in fact, it's a joke, there are as many as thirteen signed directors of Minghu Culture at present, but apart from Lu Lingxi, Li Qian really can't find anyone else who can make a movie of this way.
Don't think this kind of film is easy to shoot!
On the contrary, commercial films have mature routines, and great directors can shoot very beautiful and good-looking, but as long as they are strictly in accordance with the provisions of the script, plus the producer and producer, as long as they are qualified directors with basic director quality, they can also tell the story clearly and completely.
But if a love movie like "Autumn Fairy Tale" does not have a delicate heart, does not have an accurate grasp and understanding of details, and if the director's skills are not enough, it is easy to shoot it so bad that it cannot be watched - on the contrary, it is not as good as a commercial film of a slightly inferior standard.
It can be said that Lu Lingxi feels that she is really not good at and does not like to shoot the commercial productions of Minghu Culture in the past few years, so she is worried about whether she can get the opportunity to direct movies in Minghu Culture, but in fact, in Li Qian's view, directors like her are simply born for movies like "Autumn Fairy Tale" - this is exactly what is missing from Minghu Culture, which is almost invincible in the world in commercial production.
Therefore, Li Qian likes her greed.
At this time, Lu Lingxi reluctantly returned the second script that had not been opened, holding "Autumn Fairy Tale" in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Li Qian, you are really ...... Alas, I don't know what to say. How did you write a story like this, and how could you possibly write it?"
What an embarrassing question.
But since he came to this time and space, it has been more than nine years now, Li Qian has experienced countless such questions, so he now has a fixed answer routine.
He smiled faintly and said, "If you like it, it's fine." ”
Lu Lingxi nodded and said, "Of course I like it! This is the story I want!" Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Li Qian, "When I taught you, I felt that you were very different from other students, but I didn't think too much about it at the time, what was the difference." Later, I came into contact with you more and more, and I began to slowly understand that you have a very delicate heart. ”
She sat down emotionally and gestured softly, showing a far more than usual excitement, and said, "I know that many people will praise you for being a genius, for being able to do anything that no one else can do. But if you want me to say, the root is that you are very careful, and your heart is very delicate. ”
Li Qian laughed, "Thank you, Mr. Lu, you are the second person to praise me like this." Flattered!"
Lu Lingxi was surprised, "Before me, someone also said that about you?"
Li Qian thought about it, and there was a look of memory in his eyes, and then he was a little gloomy, but soon, he smiled and said, "Forget it, don't talk about her." ”
Then he said calmly: "I also wrote some of the planning of this movie." Of course, FYI, how to shoot depends on your own decision. If you need anything, report it to the company. ”
Lu Lingxi nodded and said, "Okay!"
She knew that Li Qian was very busy, and at this time she also understood that Li Qian's words had some meaning of rushing people, but she was about to get up, but she sat down again and asked, "Did the person who praised you so much last time tell you what your biggest flaw is?"
Li Qian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly became interested.
Since his debut, no matter what he does, Li Qian has left the impression that he has always been a genius and has always been omnipotent, especially these people around him, no matter men or women, no matter how big or small their abilities are, almost all of them are conquered by his talent, every time they talk about him, whether it is in front of him or between other people behind his back, almost every topic will revolve around "Li Qian is really amazing".
Talking about Li Qian's shortcomings in person, so far, there is really no one.
So Li Qian asked her, "What do you think?"
Lu Lingxi's eyes looked at him without blinking.
That gaze made Li Qian intuitively capture something - Lu Lingxi is recognized for his beauty, with high appearance and good figure, and the whole person's temperament is particularly stylish, graceful and simple, and calm and confident. And all this beauty, all this temperament, in fact, the most colorful place is her eyes.
It's so beautiful.
Like the autumn water, there is a god.
Especially at this moment, her eyes seem to tell something.
Li Qian looked at her.
After a while, she suddenly turned her eyes away with a little panic, and with a somewhat breathless look, she hurriedly stood up and got up to leave.
Li Qian stopped her, "You haven't said it yet, in your opinion, what is my biggest shortcoming?"
Lu Lingxi walked to the door with his head down, his hand had already fallen on the doorknob, and he turned around again, smiled, and said, "Greedy." ”
Li Qian pursed his lips.
Once again, the two looked at each other for a long time.
This time, I don't know how long it took, until the sudden sound of the handle turning, Lu Lingxi was suddenly awakened - but her own hand was not paying attention and pressed on the handle.
There was a little panic.
In the eye contact just now, she knew that she had released too much information that should not be transmitted, especially not to Li Qian, and on the contrary, she also received a lot of information.
So she lowered her head.
Li Qian suddenly sighed.
She looked up at him, standing in the doorway, and saw a wry smile on his face.
He said, "Yes, greed." ”
I panicked even more.
In a hurry, she didn't have time to think about it, and subconsciously said: "Actually, ......"
Li Qian looked up at her.
The eyes of the two met again.
Suddenly, he stood up - Lu Lingxi was startled, and subconsciously said, "Then I'll go first!"
Li Qian stopped.
She opened the door, a crack.
Then he said, "I'll figure out the script thoroughly when I go back, and I'll talk to you again." ”
Li Qian stood there, smiled, and nodded.
She turned around and walked out the door.
…………
Li Qian turned around and sat down.
The tea was already cold, but he picked up the cup and took a shallow sip.
The tea was swallowed and he let out a long sigh.
Calm down! Calm down!
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
"Enter!" Li Qian said.
Qin Nuo pushed the door in, with a little smile on his face, but he didn't speak.
Li Qian was surprised, "What's the matter?"
Qin Nuo glanced back at the door, then closed the door and whispered, "Boss, when the deer guide left just now, his face was very red, what are you doing?"
Li Qian was stunned for a moment, crying and laughing.
"What are we doing, can you ask?
Qin Nuo stuck out his tongue, "Oh! Then I won't inquire." After saying that, he turned around and wanted to go out.
Li Qian stopped her again, "We're just talking about the script! I said what's going on with you now? I shouldn't spoil you too much, right? My courage is getting fatter, my curiosity is getting bigger and bigger, and my people are getting more and more skinny. What do you think we can do?"
Qin Nuo pursed his lips, smiled secretly, spoke well-behaved and honestly, and said "oh" again, "I'm sorry boss, I was wrong." ”
Li Qian glanced at her helplessly - he is the kind of person who doesn't like to put up a fight against others, and as a plagiarist, no matter how others praise him, he has always asked himself to be modest and low-key, and he doesn't want others to praise him, so he really thinks that he is very awesome, so he puts his position very low, even if he treats an ordinary staff member, he will not put on a shelf. But in this way, the sequelae are not without it. Like Qin Nuo, who has been by his side for several years, he has become more and more aware of his temperament, and he also knows more and more about various things around him, so he has become more and more skinny.
So much so that in the past half a year, she has often dared to make a small joke about Li Qian, ** a few words or something.
Let's really clean her up, no, it's not a big deal.
And all along, Li Qian has been very satisfied with her work, thinking that she is really capable and clever, plus she has used it for all these years, she knows her ideas very well, and she is very easy to use, so Li Qian is even reluctant to let Qi Jie send her to other positions.
At this time, although he was obviously ridiculed, he just pretended to bluff his face, but in fact, he didn't really scare people, and then waved his hand, looking impatient, "Go out!
"Oh!" Qin Nuo pretended to lower his head, turned around to walk out, but stopped, turned around, and whispered: "Yesterday I heard Mr. Qi sigh in a low voice, saying, 'It's already seven'! Now it's estimated to be eight, right? Boss, I kindly reminded me, I don't mean anything else: pay attention to your body!"
Li Qian was stunned for a moment, and she quickly opened the door and went out.
After being stunned for a while, Li Qian said helplessly: "Stinky girl!"
But when he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but sigh when he remembered the eyes of Lu Lingxi just now, and the silent exchanges in those few eye contacts.
yes, greed!
He stood up and walked around his office a few times, still feeling uneasy, so he simply walked over to the cigar cabinet, took a cigar out, and lit it.
The aroma of eggplant is strong, but it is difficult to solve the annoyance.
However, this kind of entanglement and hesitation was not the first time for him, and when he was halfway through a cigar, his heart finally calmed down again.
I thought: restraint! restraint! restraint!
Vigorously extinguishing his cigar, he stood up, feeling much better, and then went back to his desk and sat down, opening the document he had just done.
Career greed is still needed for the time being.
…………
Nodding and saying hello to Qin Nuo at the door, she walked out quickly with her head down, and waited until she entered the elevator, she was the only one, she breathed a long sigh of relief, but she couldn't help but look up and touch her face - it was so hot!
Qin Nuo seemed to be staring at her face just now, and she didn't know if she saw something?
Well, the face is so red, unless she is blind, how can she not see the abnormality?
Alas!
It's over, it's over!
She couldn't help but complain to herself in her heart: How could it be? How could it be? Aren't you usually very good at restraint? Why can't you control it all of a sudden today?
He's such a greedy man, and you're a greedy man.
There are some exchanges that you can't have for the first time – that's what you've always known!
On second thought, she knew.
Because of this story in my own hands.
This story is so well written, and the wisps of emotion make people really can't help but be intoxicated, excited, excited, and even ...... Get out of hand.
She picked up the script, opened it, and saw those five words again.
Autumn stories.
Then he sighed and stepped out of the elevator.
