Chapter 14 Conversation

Blake laughed, "You invite a junior high school student to drink, there is inevitably a possibility that you will not be rewarded or lost? Maybe her opinion is not professional?"

Mark said: "I have some questions to ask for, such as the rental of camera equipment and how to hire people, and what procedures and procedures should be done to invite people to the actors' union?"

Blake said: "Then your milk tea will not be in vain." ”

In fact, as soon as Mark heard her mention the word "Sandman", this movie, he immediately searched on the Internet, and got very little information, no box office, release records, no actor list and related introduction, it should be a big work, but the other party is a professional, listen to her opinion Yes, Mark's real purpose is to listen to the opinion of Blake's father Tom.

Mark now feels that his network resources are shallow, he wants to ask a question but no one asks, he plans not to go to formal high school anymore, and is ready to apply for acting or production schools, at least mixed with people in the circle, and he should know who to ask if he has questions, instead of going online to Baidu, many professional knowledge cannot be Baidu.

For example, in the past few days, he has been flipping through the two books "Actor's Self-cultivation" and "Movie Montage", but he has never gained anything, and it can be said that he has not been able to enter.

They went to the café together, Blake ordered a large cup of grass mold milk tea, Mark ordered a large glass of frozen cola and potato chips, he took out his notebook, pulled up the document, and said, "Can you help me see this plan?"

Blake readily agreed, and while drinking cold milk tea, while reviewing his documents, she was surprised: "The script is ready, the funds are in place, and the budget is 10,000 US dollars, how did you do it, you have saved so much private money?"

Mark said, "This is what I earned by writing books?"

Blake was startled again, and she said, "What other books have you written? What are you kidding, my God?"

Mark said: "As long as I leave this school, it will be the grassland where I gallop!"

Blake said, "It's incredible, are you kidding?"

Mark said, "When the book is printed, I can send you a stack." ”

Blake said: "What kind of book did you write?

"I can assure you that there are no erotic and violent depictions of love fantasy novels about humans and vampires," Mark said. ”

Blake laughed, "Wow!" She gestured and thought for a long time before she said, "It's amazing!"

"I'm a tortoise with flesh in my belly, and as one of the people who sarcastically mock me for having no brains, do you think you're blind?" he joked.

Blake said very seriously: "Yes, I apologize to you, you are a cool boy." ”

Seeing that she was serious, Mark also said seriously: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have made fun of your braces." ”

Blake said distressedly, "I'm dead to it, since I brought it, I can't stand in the front row of the choir, and the boys don't want to talk to me anymore." ”

Mark said: "You are six feet three (one meter seventy-three), it is normal that you can't stand in the front row, as for the boy, don't you have Mason?" he said quietly.

Blake said: "What's the matter with Mason, although he is very good, he is my brother!"

Mark's eyes flashed with joy, and some of his little restless heart pounded.

Blackch said, "Mark, why is your face red?"

Mark thought that his inner care had been seen through, so he touched his forehead to hide his embarrassment, and said, "The air conditioner is not powerful." ”

Blake said, "I can take this back to Tom, don't you mind?"

"It's best to have a professional to advise," Mark said. ”

Blake flipped through his storyboard and said, "Stickman, special codename, your art skills are very poor." ”

Mark had no choice but to say: "I can only try to make others understand, I can't draw the positions and scenes one by one, I found this method on the Internet." ”

Blake smiled: "You are very thoughtful, aggressive, and a doer, why don't you find a girlfriend?"

Mark said, "I'm not cool, so no girl likes it?"

Blake said: "You should be sunny, take the initiative, can you ask the girl to go to the movies and drink coffee or something?"

Mark said, "Can I date you? Anyway, you don't have a boy date right now?"

Blake protested, "Who said I didn't have a boy date? I'm a high-minded person, what are you asking me for? You don't like me." ”

"We're friends and we can talk to each other," Mark said. ”

Blake said, "Okay, for the sake of writing books, I think boys' brains are more important than muscles." ”

"I'm an all-rounder with both brains and muscles. ”

Blake said, "Are you sure you want to make this "This Man is from Earth"?"

Mark said, "Of course, I don't want to wait. ”

Blake said: "It's very difficult to make a movie, Tom has worked in more than ten departments and prepared for several years, but who knows that the results of "The Sandman" are not good, and no one asks him to make movies anymore, Tom is sad for a long time. ”

Mark said: "I like to do challenging things, except for reading, of course, I can ask Tom to shoot it, I am the investor, producer, and producer of "This Man is from Earth". ”

Blake said: "You're just a single commander, your film project is only you, do you know how much Tom earns for a month doing behind-the-scenes work?" Blake said proudly: "He earns 10,000 US dollars a month! The investment in your film is only 10,000 US dollars!"

Mark said: "But only I asked him to be the director, and he also has the right to edit the final edit, which is a very high courtesy?"

Blake laughed: "It's because you can't edit, I can convince Tom to read your script, as for whether you can impress him, it depends on your sincerity, but you can only say that we are classmates, just classmates, not friends?"

Mark shrugged questioningly.

Blake said, "My friends are on Tom and Mason's list of unwelcome as long as they are men!"

Mark understood, saying, "If anyone dares to hit Kayla's idea, I'll kill him!" and he whispered tentatively, "But we're friends, aren't we?"

Blake faced his somewhat burning gaze, lowered his head a little embarrassed, bit the straw and said, "Yes!"

Mark happily stretched out a scissor hand and said, "Do you want something to eat?

Blake was very moved and complained, "Mark, you can't seduce me, I was almost found out by my mother last time." ”

Mark said: "Two people eating a small portion of pizza should not be detected. ”

Blake said: "If I gain weight, I must settle accounts with you!"

Mark immediately went to order a small pizza and asked for two pairs of knives and forks, and they ate them together.

Blake was visibly pleased, her snow-white face was flushed, and she said, "Mark, your figure is very strong, with a bee waist, broad shoulders and long legs, why don't you go to model? You are a natural model!"

Mark said: "I'm a man, a cowboy by nature, not a sissy standing on the runway and being judged. ”

Blake patted his forehead and said, "The model is a very cool, very fashionable industry, he can wear the latest and greatest trends, he can fly around the catwalks in Milan and Paris, it's very fascinating." ”

"My ambition is to make superhero blockbusters in Hollywood, so that people all over the world can see my movies," Mark said. ”

Blake said, "Mark, I have a piece of advice, I don't know if you would like to hear it."

Mark said, "I'm willing to listen to my friends' advice. ”

Blake said: "I like acting since I was a child, determined to be an actor, at the age of eight I played a little tooth fairy in my father's movie, after my brothers and sisters became professional actors, my mother advised me not to worry, I should focus on my studies first, a person learns well and knows what to do, don't worry about no chance to get ahead, are you a little anxious, you should calm down, learn knowledge, and there will be opportunities in the future." ”

Mark said: "I don't want to wait, or I want to try, you haven't tried, how do you know how hard the job is and how deep the water is?"

Blake said: "I would recommend you to Tom, you better find a professional, or someone who is engaged in the film industry to guide or cooperate with you, even me, I also think that your production plan is full of loopholes, most of the money is spent, and the movie has not started yet." ”

Mark said: "There is no perfect and risk-free thing in this world, the film industry is a high-risk industry, at least half of the film companies are losing money, Hollywood every year hundreds of film companies go out of business, there are also hundreds of film companies open, I am not afraid of risks, I just want to join in and try this life, I don't want to wait in the classroom to die." ”

Blake said, "Anyway, I wish you success. ”

Mark said, "It's getting late, I'll send you home." ”

Blake blushed and said, "0K!"

The next morning, Mark got up early and rushed to school ten minutes early, Donald said, "Man, it's rare to see you so active, you finally found the joy of going to school?"

Mark didn't want to hide it from him, and said, "There's a girl I want to see ten minutes early." ”

Donald said, "So somebody's Napoleon cake doesn't eat it, just to please a certain girl, man, you're a lover." ”

Mark said: "I added her ICQ, and she said in the space that she wanted to eat Napoleon cake. ”

Donald said, "I'm going to give you an extra key, man, I have condoms in my car, a simple bed under the tail row, and if it's not romantic enough, there's red wine and scented candles in the trunk." ”

Mark said: "Not so fast. ”

Donald said, "If you need to notify me as soon as possible." They bumped fists and walked away.

Mark watched Blake, who was wearing a shawl, jeans and a white T-shirt, and carrying a school bag, come over, and before anyone arrived, the hearty and straightforward laughter came, and she smiled: "Good morning, Mark!"

Mark said, "Good morning, Blake, I treat you to breakfast." He held his beautiful Napoleon cake in both hands.

Blake was surprised, "So a coincidence?" She took out a beautiful transparent lunch box from her school bag, which contained four small cakes, they looked at each other and smiled, the morning sun was particularly bright and bright, and the air was particularly fresh.
