Chapter 1028: Set Sail

This night, Cheng Xiaoyu slept very well, the Langhua Hotel is on the seaside, listening to the sound of the waves is a beautiful experience, for him, the future is only a ship that must go through wind and rain, but he has never worried, his heart will point out the direction for him, and all he has to do is set sail.

The next day, they went on a field trip with Yi Yunfei again, selected a location, and handed over the rest to Yi Yunfei and Eric Kenya, asking them to negotiate with the Monterey county government to buy as much land as possible near the bay.

Land in the United States is private property, including above-ground and underground resources belong to the owner, and can be bought and sold freely, it is actually very easy to buy land in the United States, and the price will not be very expensive, of course, this price also depends on the location.

Just because you buy a piece of land in the United States, it doesn't mean that you can control 100% of the land, because how you want to build it, you have to go to the city government to apply, and you can start building it if you pass it, and you must build it in strict accordance with the drawings.

IN ADDITION, THE CITY GOVERNMENT GENERALLY HAS A ZONING.PLAN, THAT IS, IF THE DISTRICT YOU BUY IS A COMMERCIAL AREA, YOU CAN'T USE IT FOR HOUSING, AND YOU CAN'T USE IT FOR BUSINESS, SO MANY DETAILS NEED TO BE NEGOTIATED WITH THE MONTEREY COUNTY GOVERNMENT.

Cheng Xiaoyu wants to build not only a set and a big ship moored on the coast, but also the famous big ship will be converted into a hotel in the future, he believes that in the future, it will become a pilgrimage place for countless couples, and in the future, there will be more amusement projects here as he shoots movies, and there will be more things to play.

This is a boost for Monterrey's most important tourism industry, and he is confident that the Monterrey County Government will not refuse such a large investment.

After demarcating the location, Cheng Xiaoyu put down his mundane affairs and accompanied Xia Shamo to the most famous "17 Miles" and the small town of Carmel on "Highway 1".

The temperature in Monterrey is very pleasant all year round, if Cheng Xiaoyu is to describe it, Monterrey belongs to a livable place where you can "face the sea and spring flowers" every day, the blue sky and blue sea gave the two of them a good feeling during the journey, and stayed in the literary and artistic Carmel town for one night, and the next day Cheng Xiaoyu and Xia Shamo set off to return to Los Angeles.

In fact, Xia Shamo still wants to go to San Francisco, which is close to Monterey, to have a look, because Cheng Xiaoyu grew up here, but Cheng Xiaoyu is reluctant to mention this place, let alone return to San Francisco, for him, where are the painful memories that he doesn't want to touch.

Cheng Xiaoyu returned to his home in Los Angeles and immediately began to prepare for his "pseudo-documentary", because of the limited time, he could not shoot a film that required too long a filming process, so Cheng Xiaoyu planned to rewrite a more thrilling story on the basis of "Smart - Ghost Shadow Record".

When it comes to creating the atmosphere of horror movies, Cheng Xiaoyu has always felt that Neon Man is really higher than more than one rank of Americans, Hollywood horror films emphasize visual stimulation, and when the movie ends, it is rare to remember the plot, mainly because their environments and the perverts in their environments and the environment we are in overlap very little, so it is difficult for the audience to bring themselves into their scenes.

Neon movies are in elevators, hospitals, classrooms, corridors and other places we often go to, causing our psychological resonance. These scenes are too similar to the environment of our daily life, such as inadvertently walking out of the hallway at night, or daily life, going to the bathroom at home in the middle of the night, going to the hospital at night, and even feeling uncomfortable if you are accompanied by scary music during the day.

Neon horror movies mostly stem from our fear of the unknown. The ghosts in neon horror movies like "The Grudge" and "Midnight Bell" don't know anything about their weaknesses, let alone overcome, we can only wait for death, not so much fear as despair.

European and American horror films, such as "Ghost Player" and "Ghost Street", the ghosts can at least be killed, although there is little hope, but there is still a glimmer of life, so there is no such strong sense of fear.

And it just so happens that whether it is "Blair the Witch" or "Ghost Shadow", the horror of the movie is not the demons and monsters we see, but the fear of the unknown in our hearts, so these two "pseudo-documentaries" actually follow the routine of neon horror films.

In fact, whether it is "Blair the Witch" or "Spirit-Ghost Shadow", most of the reasons for its success are the novel filming techniques of pseudo-documentaries, as well as successful publicity, and some luck.

As for the film itself, there is nothing worth saying about from the appearance to the editing, and there are even many logical inconsistencies.

And Cheng Xiaoyu has been honed by so many movies, of course, he can't be satisfied with just remaking a shoddy "pseudo-documentary", although he still has to rely on the memory in his mind to draw a storyboard script to make a film, but as he understands the movie more and more, he is fully able to shoot the story he wants to film.

At this time, he already understood that storyboard scripts are also a double-edged sword, although it can make film shooting easier, but it can also limit the director's creativity. With a storyboard script, the director just mechanically turns the content drawn on the paper into a shot, but when the story and actors come into contact with reality, there will be a lot of interesting and unpredictable collisions and pictures, and then the storyboard script becomes a stumbling block.

But at the moment, Cheng Xiaoyu does not plan to change his way of shooting, because with a detailed storyboard script, it can save him a lot of time, and his current purpose is to make money, not to pursue art.

But this movie, which is planned to be completed in a week, Cheng Xiaoyu plans to test his directing skills, and he plans to completely adapt "Agility - Ghost Shadow Record", because the shortcomings of this movie are too obvious, the plot drags on, the rhythm is slow, and the plot is deliberate, which makes people really a bit dramatic.

No matter what the emergency, the male protagonist can carry a camera around, which is very problematic in itself, which is more than a notch different from the reasonable handling in another memory pseudo-documentary "Death Video".

And then for the frightening part of the film, most of them are not scary, it's just that the hero and heroine are screaming by themselves, which is a bit stumbling compared to neon horror films.

After careful consideration, Cheng Xiaoyu plans to combine "Agility - Ghost Shadow" with the very famous "Midnight Bell" in his memory, he believes that this will be an extremely scary movie, Cheng Xiaoyu's neon horror movies are not seen much, because after watching "Midnight Bell", he will never dare to watch neon horror movies again.

However, Cheng Xiaoyu doesn't plan to make the plot too complicated, he plans to set the heroine as a horror movie lover, and accidentally borrows this horror movie video from Neon, and her boyfriend will be set as a reporter who believes in "atheism".

The plot of "Midnight Bell" is mainly self-rescue, because everyone who has watched the video will die within seven days, and in the process of self-rescue, the secrets in the video are discovered. And Cheng Xiaoyu plans to shoot according to the main plot of "Smart - Ghost Shadow Record", mainly in the process of discovering ghosts around him.

As for why there are ghosts in the tape, and why the heroine just borrowed the tape, that is a problem that the sequel needs to solve.

After clarifying his thoughts, Cheng Xiaoyu began to write a simple script, and more plots will be borrowed from the American version of "Midnight Bells......

After writing the script, Cheng Xiaoyu refreshed the "whisper" to see if Peter Copla responded to his challenge, Peter Copla's "whisper" has not moved in the past few days, and it is estimated that he still has some concerns about this matter, after all, whether he wins or loses, it is not necessarily a glorious thing for Peter Copla.

Cheng Xiaoyu didn't really expect Peter Kopla to agree, but as long as he responded, Cheng Xiaoyu was confident that he would make a comeback.

Cheng Xiaoyu opened his "whisper", although he has not posted a "whisper" for more than a year or nearly two years, but after the "Tokyo Hell Ten Days Case" and his own movie logged in China again, Cheng Xiaoyu's "whisper" fans have reached more than 60 million, although most of them are Chinese fans, but there are also many fans from the United States.

Because he didn't pay attention to Peter Copla, he searched for Peter Copla's name and clicked on the other party's "whisper", Peter Copla finally couldn't hold back and responded, of course he didn't accept Cheng Xiaoyu's challenge.

The reason given is that "a movie made in a week is disrespectful to the audience, and Cheng Xiaoyu can do such a shameless thing to consume attention, but he Peter Kopla can't do it, because he is a director with high professional ethics and integrity." ”

In addition, he also ridiculed Cheng Xiaoyu for having no pursuit of art except for relying on propaganda to cheat money to make some pure popcorn movies, and took the opportunity to promote a wave of literary films he had filmed, and then claimed that his investment in his next film would exceed 410 million.

Cheng Xiaoyu once again @Peter.Kopla, said: "Mr. Peter, you are just a LOSER, a coward who is trying his best to prove that he is not a LOSER, and all the pain you are feeling now is essentially anger at your own incompetence and jealousy of my success." But you don't want to face it, and instead look for the only comfort you have by dissolving the efforts of others...... But I'm sorry that I, Cheng Xiaoyu, am not a person like you, I am confident that I can make a good enough horror movie in a week....... Of course, this has to rely on the power of the majority of netizens!"

Then Cheng Xiaoyu released a jump of "whispers", buying all real supernatural videos and supernatural events at a high price, hoping that all people in the world who have experienced supernatural events will write down his story, or send the captured video to himself, if possible, he will put it on the big screen, even if it can't be adapted into a movie, as long as he thinks it's wonderful and really scary, he will forward it and pay for it.

Of course, sending this "whisper" is also part of Cheng Xiaoyu's publicity plan, the first thing he wants to create is that this movie is real..........
