Two days later, Henry found Liu Pian again.

He has been studying the script repeatedly these days, and he is more serious than reading books when he was a student. He felt that the script was much more interesting than the boring content in the textbook, and even if it was fictional, it was difficult to hide the charm behind it.

Jigsaw, what kind of person is he?

Henry thought about this question for a long time.

"He's an evil villain, he doesn't have the right to take someone else's life, it's a crime. In the dining room, Henry said to Liu Pian, "But he still retains a little principle, he will give the game participants the choice of life, even if it is cruel." ”

Liu Pian smiled, "Let's not talk about this for now, I want to see your performance." ”

Henry nodded, took a big sip from the water glass, then cleared his throat, changed his expressionless and indifferent face, and began the performance.

Liu Pian looked at it for a while, and nodded with satisfaction, "The voice can be calmer, you have to imagine yourself as a ruthless death god who takes people's lives." You don't have to be too evil, just be a spectator. ”

Henry nodded, nervously, "Then my audition..."

"Congratulations, passed. Liu Pian smiled.

Jigsaw, although he is only a supporting role, and he doesn't have many scenes, but he has made a lot of evils.

There are eight parts of the chainsaw series that Liu Pian knows, but no matter which one he is, he is not the protagonist.

The protagonist is the victim, not the villain boss.

The reason why the audience is only impressed by this character is because his methods of committing crimes are too cruel, the game he sets is too fantastic, the reversals are dazzling, and the ending is unexpected. Moreover, in many mainstream movies, the protagonist usually kills the villain, and the audience also substitutes for the protagonist, thinking about how to escape and how to destroy evil. But Chainsaw Horror, especially every part is won by the villain, and even if the old thing jigsaw is dead, the game he set up, the chess pieces left behind can still harm the world.

Among the many villains in film history, although the jigsaw is not ranked first, it can definitely leave a name.

"Thank you, thank you. Henry's eyes were red, and he hurriedly thanked.

"You should thank you for helping me finish the witch shoot in the first place. Liu Pian smiled.

At the beginning, Henry did give Liu Pian a lot of help in shooting, without him as a "local snake", the filming would not have gone so smoothly.

......

After the selection of jigsaws is decided, there are two male protagonists.

The two men were locked in a room with jigsaws, and they were played from head to tail, even if they finally sawed off their legs, it was still too late.

Secondly, there is also a supporting actress.

After experiencing the torture of the jigsaw, this woman actually agreed with the concept of the jigsaw and became his lackey, appearing several times in the later parts.

When Liu Pian found Steven and Derek, the two had not yet found a suitable candidate.

It stands to reason that there are many young actors in the acting department, and it is not difficult to find two suitable candidates, but when people heard that it was Steven's film about their brutal terrorist club, they all retreated, and none of them were willing to accept it.

"None of them are willing to participate?" In the bedroom, Liu Pian stared at the two in surprise.

Steven said embarrassedly, "Right now... That is true. ”

"Why?" Liu Pian asked curiously, "Is it because you are not satisfied with the salary? You can give a little more, it doesn't matter." ”

"It's not about pay. Derek shook his head, "It's our society's reputation that stinks, you know, not many people can accept our society's bloody movies." ”

Steven sighed, "Our club is so maverick, and the whole house knows that some students are especially disgusted with the brutal and bloody stuff. ”

Liu Pian said angrily, "You guys are fifty steps and a hundred steps of laughter, and you also say that I don't have a good reputation in Hollywood, and you are not much better." ”

Steven scratched his head, "Don't we smell like each other?"

Liu Pian was speechless: "....."

Can you change the word?

"I'll go to the Actors' Guild tomorrow and I should be able to find it. Steven said.

......

And then the next day...

Steven returned dejectedly, "Liu Pian, your reputation is really stinky in Hollywood, and many actors are reluctant to come when they hear that you are a director." ”

Liu Pian's eyelids twitched, "Is it so exaggerated..."

"Really, what am I lying to you for?" Steven said with a headache, "I used to tell your name, guess what people say?"

Is Liu Pian the director of the witch?

I said yes.

They turned me down. ”

Liu Pian wondered, "This shouldn't be, is there anyone who doesn't like beautiful knives?"

Steven rolled his eyes, you only have a total budget of two million, how high can the salary be?

"If you don't add a little more budget, I promise to spend money to get a few actors. ”

"There's no need. Liu Pian frowned.

It's not that he's short of money, he just doesn't think it's necessary. "SA" is awesome about the plot, and the gimmick is those bloody murder scenes, not the actors. This is completely the opposite compared to spending the budget on domestic traffic movies that invite stars.

Today's big stars, whether in China or Hollywood, have few original intentions to make such bloody cult films.

Since you can't invite big stars to earn traffic and gimmicks, why spend so much more money?

Actors have their own worth, and Liu Pian doesn't want to help those young actors who think highly of themselves to raise their value.

Look at Henry, the salary is $50,000 and it's done.

Seeing that several people were at a loss, Liu Pian thought about it and said ill-intentionedly, "I have a way." ”

"What?" Steven looked up.

"Or just the two of you, two male protagonists, one of you plays one, just right. Liu Pian smiled and said, "As for the supporting actress, don't you have a girl from medical school in your club? ”

Steven grew his mouth blankly and pointed to his nose, "I'm going to act?"

Derek was also stunned, "This is too economical." ”

"It's a little bit to be able to save a little. Liu Pian shrugged, "Big deal, I'll increase your box office dividend ratio?"

Speaking of money, this is more effective than any reason, Steven muttered, "Liu Pian, although the script is very good, but can "SA" make box office? Your budget of two million, plus publicity expenses, without a box office of eight million, you are losing money. ”

"Why not?"

Steven pointed at Liu Pian, "Don't you know what your image is in the hearts of American audiences? How many people will buy it then? I don't care, as long as I can get by." ”

Liu Pian had a toothache.

This looks a bit like a paradox, he plans to make a great movie in order to reverse his notoriety, and the audience may not buy it because of the notoriety, and if they don't go to the cinema to watch it at that time, it will be cool.

"It's okay, I'll figure this out. Liu Pian grabbed her chin and thought.

Big deal, then there will be another wave of marketing, hype and hype.

"The problem now is the actor's problem, do you play it or not?" asked Liu Pian.

Steven and Derek looked at each other, and finally nodded helplessly.

Perform!

Liu Pian clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Then it's decided, and a few leading actors will be determined." Other passerby characters, I'll figure it out again. ”

.......

Although Liu Pian's reputation is not very good, there are still a group of idle people in Hollywood who have nothing to do and see money. Even if it's not easy to find actors for bloody cult films, there are some people who are willing to shoot this type of movie in order to live in Los Angeles.

What is it to cut off a leg, what is it to disembowel, what is it to be covered in blood?

Besides, it's just acting, it's all fake.

As long as the money is in place, everything is easy to say.

For this reason, Liu Pian had to raise the budget to $250, which was still Steven and others participating in the performance, otherwise, the budget would have been increased even more.

Soon, "SA" officially declared the project, and Liu Pian also contacted Universal to discuss another wave of "embarrassment".

On the same day, Zhou Hao called Liu Pian and asked curiously, "Are you going to make a movie again?"

"Graduation project. Liu Pian explained.

Zhou Hao was speechless, aren't you from the Conservatory of Music, and there is a woolen relationship between Bi Shi and making movies?

"I still want to ask Universal to help with the distribution. Liu Pian touched his nose, he was not familiar with the other Hollywood giants at all. It is estimated that people will look down on him because of the witch.

"I'm not the only one in charge of the company, I have to watch your movie first. Zhou Hao said.

Movies that don't have value, they don't waste money on distribution.

The last witch, if they hadn't set up a scam in advance, they wouldn't have released it.

"Well, I'll come to you with a movie before the end of March. Liu Pian said.

It's almost the end of February, and there's just over a month left to complete the production.

"So fast?" Zhou Hao said in surprise, "Are you going to make a pseudo-documentary again?"

"You'll know when the time comes. Liu Pian smiled.

SA is a series, and it's worth much, much more than witches. This is enough to brag about half a lifetime of classics.
