"I remember reading a poem that felt like the story, but I couldn't remember it for a while. Gu Zheng said, he couldn't remember where he had read it, and his memory was a little messy.

"This is one day I read "Elois to Abrad", it is based on a love tragedy in the 12th century, so on this basis developed a modern urban love story, of course, there are some fantasy settings, but I don't think it affects it. Zhou Bai explained.

In fact, the story Zhou Bai said is an American movie "Eternal Sunshine of a Beautiful Mind" in 04, and there is another name called "Containing Warm Warm Light", of course, he did some processing when telling it, changed the back to China, and the role was changed to Chinese, anyway, it is the main synopsis, too detailed can be slowly changed when the script is released.

The production cost of this film is 20 million US dollars, but if you deduct the actors' salaries, in fact, less than half of the funds actually spent on filming, think about the starring Jim Carrey, Kate Winslet and Kirsten Dunst, especially Jim Carrey, who is a member of the Hollywood 20 million club.

The film won the '05 Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay, and even Fei Wen was nominated for Best Actress, and of course a bunch of Golden Globe Awards, BAFTA Awards, French César Awards, etc.

"It's a good story, there's a philosophical deep thought behind the theme of love, and it's also touching and touching. They are like two sleepy hedgehogs, keeping each other warm, but they are pricked with each other, so they leave each other...... Over and over again, endlessly. However, it is not easy to shoot in this way, and there are many exterior locations, and the most important thing is that the shooting should be held in winter, and the cost is not low. Lou Ye was very interested, and this story happened to scratch the soft flesh in his heart, which made him very fascinated.

"Of course, the cost will not be too low, I thought about it, to complete the shooting, it will take at least five million funds to be possible, this is still not the case of calculating the salary, but five million is not impossible to get, "That Mountain, That Man and That Dog" If the overseas exhibition rights are sold, the cost should still be able to make some money, plus some other funds, the initial funds are still available. Zhou Bai took a sip of wine and said.

"The risk is still a bit big, the five million fund is only a preliminary investment, it is still too expensive, and this project is not easy to say, and the project will not be started until November and December. Lou Ye sighed, the story is very good, but if you want to shoot exquisitely, you still have to spend money.

"Didn't you say that there are three stories?" After listening to the first story told by Zhou Bai, Yuan Yu was very curious about what the other two stories were.

"Well, the second story is also urban love, but if it is made into a movie, the cost of the scene and some other things will be much smaller, and there are not so many exterior locations, this is a story about the New Year and loneliness. ”

"I called the story 'Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss and set it on New Year's Eve. ”

"On the eve of the new century, if you can share a midnight kiss with your loved ones, the loneliness and depression of the whole year will disappear, and the new year will be full of joy and hope. Li Mingyuan, who had just arrived in the capital, had a very bad life in the past year, with no house, no car, or even a work plan, lonely and helpless, living in the house of his friend Lao Jia. ”

"In the past year, his life has been particularly bad, without a girlfriend, without a job, and his inner desires have not been released. In order to help his friend relieve his loneliness, Li Mingyuan's good brother Jia Weisi encouraged him to post a friend recruitment post on a dating website. On the last day of the year, this advertisement allowed Li Tianming to meet Mao Weiwei, who was looking for true love......"

Zhou Bai said slowly, slowly telling a story about the search for a girlfriend at midnight on the New Year, and depicting the story of two lonely people meeting in one day, spying on each other and finally falling in love.

Li Mingyuan is a failed sling, no house, no car, no girlfriend, and even jerks off to the photos of his friend's girlfriend, he is simply a lonely, empty and pitiful worm that no one loves.

Mao Weiwei is a failed North Drifter actor, met a scumbag boyfriend, was split when she was pregnant, and lived in a basement for hundreds of yuan a month after beating off the child, just as pitiful.

But the loser also has a heart that wants to have love, she and Li Mingyuan are the same, they don't want to spend the New Year's Eve of the century alone, so they decided to go to the date after seeing Li Mingyuan's dating post on the Internet, but at the same time, they were afraid of meeting bad people, so they disguised themselves, and in the exchange with Li Mingyuan, the two of them sped on each other, eager to meet the same kind and afraid of being hurt at the same time.

When the bell rang on the night of the century, they took off their disguises, and then found that they were the same as each other, and finally the two slept together for the night, and after dawn they separated from each other, Li Mingyuan decided to start a new life, and Mao Weiwei returned to her hometown to meet the object introduced by her parents.

"Did they go to bed?" Lou Ye asked, this story was more sullen than the previous one, but the expression of loneliness was very vivid.

"Does it matter? I don't think so, if you go to bed, you lose your charm, and turn a good love story into a cliché drama on the Internet. Lao Jia said, of course, there is no one in Zhou Bai's description, even if the original version is there, but Zhou Bai thinks that it is Western, if it is replaced by a domestic one, it will be better to just hug each other and sleep all night, which is also very in line with reality.

"This story is similar to "Love Before Dawn", but it is much clearer in expression, and if it is filmed, it is not so cumbersome. Yu Feihong interjected and said, she likes this story very much, it is very resonant, and of course it is similar to her life abroad, it is so lonely.

Well, it should be said that it is the oriental version of "Love Before Dawn", which shows the love desire of urban youth and the loneliness of people's hearts. Zhou Bai said that in fact, this movie does borrow from "Love Before Dawn" in the form of a story.

"You actually thought of this story on New Year's Eve, amazing! After all, it's the turn of the century, and this story does qualify, I like it." Wang Hongwei said.

Zhou Bai smiled, of course he couldn't tell them that this was the information I got from the memory fragments, in fact, he called the actor's name Li Mingyuan, also to commemorate the deceased who had passed away.

The story Zhou Bai described to them is an American movie "Looking for Midnight Kiss" in 08, the cost is very small, and the difficulty of filming is even smaller, and it can even be filmed in the summer, but it takes some thought on the costumes and scenes.

"It's not a difficult story to shoot, it doesn't cost much, and there are very few exterior locations, so it's worth considering. Lao Jia said, then patted Lou Ye's shoulder and laughed.
