Chapter 128: Fifty First Loves

Unconsciously, it was late at night, and many guests in the barbecue stall had left, and Zhou Bai's table happened to have a strong atmosphere, Zhou Bai threw out the first two stories, which had shocked several people, including Lou Ye and Lao Jia, maybe these stories are not as profound as those bitter and bitter rural movies in terms of artistry, but in terms of story, it is definitely a good story.

The first movie is "The Eternal Sunshine of a Beautiful Heart", and the second movie is "Looking for the Midnight Kiss", but Zhou Bai changed time and space to the present, and changed the name to "Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss", and Zhou Bai's third story is still an American movie, a modern urban romantic comedy, "Fifty First Loves".

Xiao Lin was a veterinarian at a zoo, and because of a negligence in his work, a sick and precious animal could not be rescued in time and died, so he lost his job. Zhou Bai said, the beginning of the modification, the original protagonist from the aquarium veterinarian to the zoo veterinarian, in fact, the consideration behind the difficulty of shooting, this era wants to shoot the aquarium, there are some underwater shots, the cost is too expensive.

Although Xiao Bai is a veterinarian, he has been very fond of the ocean since he was a child, so after he was fired, he simply put on a backpack and traveled, he went to Sanya in the South China Sea, just to fulfill his dream, to find the legendary pink dolphin, for him, to meet the sea again, it is like going to heaven. Zhou Bai said slowly, first explain the background to the actor.

"Wait, according to your setting, when shooting, don't you have to go to the beach? Wang Hongwei said that as an actor, the movies he has filmed are all on a tight budget, and when I think about "Xiao Wu", I feel a little sad.

"Lao Wang, don't interrupt him yet, let's listen to the whole story first, and then think about this. Gu Zheng said that as a screenwriter and a screenwriter who graduated from Nortel's Department of Literature, he doesn't really care about the cost, he only cares about whether the story is attractive.

Just when Xiao Bai's dream was about to come true, an accident occurred, and the boat Xiao Bai was going to take was in distress during the journey, and in desperation, Xiao Lin came to a small resort fishing village. In the small fishing village of Sanya in the South China Sea, he saw Yuan Yuan who was having breakfast in a small restaurant, Xiao Bai smiled at her, but only received the girl's suspicious gaze. ”

"The boat that Xiao Bai is going to sit on is broken, if it is repaired, it will take fifty days, in desperation, Xiao Bai had to live in a small resort fishing village, the next day, when Xiao Bai came to the small restaurant again, Yuan Yuan was still sitting there, this mysterious girl has gradually attracted Xiao Bai's attention. Zhou Bai said the basic plot at the beginning.

"This story doesn't seem to be that good compared to the first two, and it doesn't seem to be any different from a normal love story. Gu Zheng thought in his heart, the first two stories are amazing, and there is no lack of space to express them, but this story doesn't seem to be so good.

Xiao Bai is actually a person who is afraid of responsibility in his heart, and he has been hurt because of love, so he has set a rule for himself, no matter which city he goes to, he will not find a local person to fall in love. Xiao Bai has always abided by this rule, so his previous girlfriends were all from other places, but this time when he met Yuan Yuan, he found that he was deeply attracted to this girl, so he broke this rule and asked Yuan Yuan to have breakfast together the next day. ”

When Xiao Bai found Yuan Yuan the next day, he wanted to continue the topic of the previous day, but Yuan Yuan ignored him, regarded Xiao Bai as a neurotic, and said that he didn't know Xiao Bai, which made him completely confused. Zhou Bai threw out suspense, this setting is actually the essence of the whole movie.

"It's a little interesting, this is different from the plot of ordinary cliché love movies, is this a story of falling in love with a mentally ill person?" Gu Zheng's eyes lit up, and he felt that it was completely possible.

Yuan Yuan's body seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious veil, just in the days when Xiao Bai stayed in the small fishing village, he found that Yuan Yuan was like this every day, and he couldn't remember what happened yesterday the next day, but she knew everyone in the small restaurant, except Xiao Bai. ”

During the time when Xiao Bai stayed in the small fishing village, Xiao Bai accidentally learned that Yuan Yuan actually suffered from transient amnesia because of a car accident, and the next day he would completely forget what happened the day before. It was also during this time that he fell in love with the girl, but the girl's transient amnesia was a huge problem, and in her life, there was no memory of Xiao Bai, and every next day, it would be reset. Zhou Bai revealed the mystery, and this story, flipped again, really has a soul.

"Xiao Bai realized that if he wants to be with Yuan Yuan, he can only meet and meet every day in the future, meet and fall in love with each other every day, day after ......day" Zhou Bai slowly finished the whole story, in this story, of course, there are Yuan Yuan's father, Xiao Bai's colleagues, the owner of the small restaurant, the guests, the people of the small fishing village, etc., but the center of the story will not change, it is still love.

"So it's a fairy tale?" Lao Jia complained, he didn't like this kind of happy ending, and the whole atmosphere of the story was very relaxed, even if the story was wonderful, it still didn't appeal to him.

"Isn't a fairy tale good? If this story is made into a movie, it must be made into an urban romantic comedy, to put it bluntly, just to win the box office. Zhou Bai said, even if this story is filmed, it will be 00 years later, and it is estimated that it will be released in 01 years, the cost is not too high, and the story is very exciting, it should be popular.

"You are too naïve, in the domestic film market, piracy and the audience does not like to watch movies, you invest millions into it, and if you want to return the cost, you need at least 10 million box office, which is not easy. "Lou Ye is not very optimistic, mainly because the domestic box office is too low now, and the movies are starving to death.

"I love this story, but it's quite risky to shoot, and audiences don't like to watch movies now. Yuan Yu said, this story is very sweet, if she can shoot with Zhou Bai, she is very happy, of course, she also thinks that Zhou Bai's idea of getting the box office back is unrealistic.

It's all mixed rice in the entertainment industry, either actors or directors, or screenwriters, everyone knows the situation in China, and now not to mention the issue of distribution, the entire market is shrinking very much, and it is too difficult to win the box office.

"I think it's not that the audience doesn't like to watch movies, but that there are very few really wonderful commercial movies, and this movie is made into a comedy romance, which may not have a box office. Zhou Bai smiled and said confidently.

Zhou Bai now has more than 1.2 million funds, he and Yuan Yang bought a house, but it has not been renovated yet, but the money to buy the house is only a down payment, and the rest are loans.

Every month, 306 restaurants plus another restaurant can provide Zhou Bai with a total profit of about 100,000 yuan, in addition to leaving part of it as the working capital of the store, and some of it is reserved for Liu Guoyang to open a branch.

If you shoot "Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss", the initial investment of 500,000 is OK, even if the entire shooting investment is 1 million, he can now afford it, and the restaurant is constantly providing him with funds.

As for "Fifty First Loves", the filming will be next year, and there is no problem with investing millions, Uncle Zhou Bai still has funds there, and the screening rights of "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog" and "Suzhou River" should be able to be sold, and it is no problem to recover millions.

This night, Zhou Bai and Zhou Gongzi, Yuan Feng and Lao Jia drank late, everyone was very excited, and finally agreed to put the movie "Chinese New Year's Eve Kiss" on the agenda and ready to shoot.
