Li Dong thought of a movie "Heart Labyrinth" with distinctive characteristics in his previous life, directed by Xin Yukun, which was also his debut film.

The most prominent feature of the movie "Heart Labyrinth" is the structure, the script gives the audience a very fragmented standard plot line, this plot is pieced together, the ending is the beginning of all the stories, and the plot is constantly reversed, making the audience want to stop.

The director cleverly arranged a coffin, two lives, three nights and four days, five murderers, nine secrets and various coincidences through flashbacks, telling a story that "no one can tell". The story is not difficult to understand, but the way of telling the story is wonderful.

As a suspenseful movie, "brain-burning" must be a necessary condition for its success, the film revolves around a charred corpse, everyone has a ghost in their hearts about this corpse, and the desire of human nature is vividly displayed.

The film adopts a non-linear narrative, using flashbacks to integrate several online stories, coupled with novel editing methods, so that the story is peeled back layer by layer like an onion, reflecting the good and evil of everyone in the small village.

Moreover, in terms of form, it conforms to the narrative structure of suspense films, and also plays the concept of "brain-burning" very well in domestic films, quite some of the style elements of Nolan and Coen brothers' films.

As a rookie director, Xin Yukun has no network resources in the film industry, and the producer is also a novice and has no experience in attracting investment.

Therefore, this movie belongs to the "three nos" movie, that is, there are no stars, no big directors, no big productions, and the budget is only a pitiful more than one million, which is not even enough for a commercial blockbuster.

In order to save money, the filming location of the film is in the producer's hometown, there are five or six main characters, and there are more than a dozen actors in total, all of whom are local local drama and troupe actors found at the filming location.

Because the crew did not have enough funds, the pre-publicity of the film was not carried out at all, and it could only be screened in a few cities to accumulate popularity.

However, since the early test screening, the movie has received large-scale praise from industry insiders, film critics and media reporters, and its good reputation has exploded the circle of friends in the industry, and even the Douban score has reached 8.6.

Li Dong was infected by that literary girl back then, and this film was watched dozens of times, which left a deep impression on him, and the plot of the film is still vivid.

Thinking of this, Li Dong smiled and said, "Big brother, I really thought of a story a while ago, but this story only has a general framework......"

When Huang Peiren and Lao Lu heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up.

Lao Lu said with a face full of surprise: "Dongzi, hurry up and tell me about ......"

Lao Huang also couldn't wait to say: "Yes, yes...... Hurry up, you kid finally have a new idea. ”

Li Dong smiled bitterly, and then slowly narrated the plot of the movie "Heart Labyrinth" to the two of them, because the plot was too familiar, so Li Dong spoke very carefully, and many details were specially explained.

Such a film that emphasizes the narrative structure, if you change people, no matter how detailed Li Dong is, it will sound like a cloud and a mountain of fog, but who are Huang Peiren and Lao Lu, the two have been mixed in the film industry for most of their lives, and they only listened to it for a while.

Lao Lu also deliberately took out a pen and wrote it in the notebook while listening, and after Li Dong finished speaking, Lao Lu had already outlined the skeleton of the film and basically figured out the structure of the story.

Huang Peiren was also very surprised, rubbing his hands vigorously, and said excitedly: "Brother, this story is good, I really want to shoot ......"

Lao Lu shook his head after hearing this and said: "Crazy Stone is similar to the style of this drama, let's hand over this drama to someone else to film, but you can hang a producer in the crew, so there will be a publicity gimmick." ”

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and said to Li Dong again: "Dongzi, this story is up to me to perfect, don't you mind...... Don't worry, the originality of the script is still your ......"

Li Dong suddenly became excited when he heard this, of course Lao Tzu didn't mind.

In fact, Li Dong thinks so, he just copied his brain hole from his previous life, and the next thing is to be left to the professionals, he wants to get it, but the problem is that he doesn't know anything, or don't come out with that foreign appearance.

"Big brother, don't...... This script is simply created by the two of us, and in the future, our brothers will be invincible in the world......"

After listening to Li Dong's words, Lao Lu refused for a while, and then Lao Huang persuaded a few words, and he reluctantly agreed.

"Dongzi, then brother thank you, don't say anything else, we'll see you in the future......"

"Big brother, don't be polite to me, brother, except for shaking a little cleverness, in fact, I don't have any goods in my stomach, you are called a real skill. ”

"Brother,You're making fun of me.,Brother really wrote a few good books back then.,But I've been stuck in a creative bottleneck in the past few years.,Maybe I'm old.,Even the inspiration is gone.,Seriously,I read your books.,Alas...... My brother can't compare ...... you."

Lao Huang laughed when he heard this: "You two, don't be humble to each other, just like Dongzi said, what is it called...... That's right, a combination of two swords...... Haha......"

Because he has a good book again, Li Dong is finally down-to-earth in his heart, at least he is no longer as embarrassed as before.

Although the movie "Heart Labyrinth" did not achieve very good box office results in the previous life, it was not a problem with the book, it was mainly poor in money, constrained by the budget, at least the actors were poor, and it was still a little rough in many production links, plus there was no publicity and promotion in the early stage of the film at all, and the number of films scheduled was so small, which did not achieve the desired results.

But now these problems will not appear, there is an experienced Lao Lu to improve the script, and the company is not worried about funds at present, and with Lao Huang's network resources in the film industry, he can definitely make this play well.

And this drama is mainly better in structure and story, so the investment will not be too big, if it is operated well, it will definitely be able to achieve a good box office with a small size.

After all, the film company has just been established, and it can't be compared with those big film and television giants in terms of funds, although there were many excellent films in the previous life, most of them require very large production costs, so the company is still more suitable for this kind of script.

Because there was a new script, Huang Peiren was very excited, and he and Lao Lu pulled Li Dong to have a big drink at night, and did not let him leave until midnight.

Li Dong was a little drunk, he sat in the taxi and took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Tan Ru.

"Are you at home?"

"Ah, you're coming......"

"Hmm...... Miss you......"

"Huh...... Then come on......"
