Return? Zhou Xuan didn't think about it, but Nie Yuyan's American number was not opened, and he didn't know his domestic number, even if he returned to China, could he find someone? If Nie Yuyan avoids him and doesn't contact him when he returns to China, Zhou Xuan will definitely go crazy. It's not that I'm worried, but I've done "useless work", and I can't get over my face.

Men care about face, and the more successful they are, the more they care. Otherwise, Xiang Yu would not have killed himself because of "shameless to see Jiangdong's father"! Zhou Xuan has super self-esteem, otherwise he would not have beaten the college coach back then. Now, he doesn't want the whole world to know about his girlfriend and running back to China without saying hello.

He's a star, the best rookie, an assist king, an MVP, not a poor carver! He believes that there are men who have achieved nothing in their lives because they have spent their lives pleasing women.

So he decided to wait. If Nie Yuyan doesn't treat him as an outsider and tells him what happened, he will naturally help if he can help him, and if the other party even turns off the phone and disappears, then he will respond to all changes with the same.

He hates waiting, and he hates to put a hot face on a cold ass.

Arriving in Los Angeles in the morning, Zhou Xuan went directly to the hotel.

"Welcome, Mr. Zhou, this is your room key, this is the best penthouse balcony suite, and the neighbor is also a star ......" said the hotel lobby manager, showing a bunch of membership cards and handling it to get a discount.

Zhou Xuan shook his head and said, "I'm just here for a vacation, and I don't need so many cards." ”

The manager explained in detail, it was all free to handle, and he didn't even need to fill in the form, just need to sign it. Zhou Xuan's current value provides a lot of convenience. You can get any card without guarantee, no one doubts his spending power, and it's not polite that he can get a discount.

It's just that when he asked Mitchell to help book a room, he thought it was two people, but now he has become himself, is it still interesting to stay in a hotel?

Zhou Xuan went into the room to take a shower, and called the Olsen sisters and the "magic guide" Gilmour. The Olsen sisters have jobs, and Gilmour has recently entered a low ebb period, and she is trying to complain to Zhou Xuan.

It's been a long time since Gilmour has actually directed a film, and he's always busy developing this project, producing that plan, and executive producing countless films. When he left the position of director of "The Hobbit", many people couldn't help but wonder, is he still a director?

Many people speculate that his next film will be "Crazy Mountain", and he said in an interview with foreign media that he has already started work on the film, and revealed that he had a meeting with people from Universal Pictures and handed over some of his concept drawings and models and a finished script to the producers.

"Crazy Mountain" is based on the works of horror novelist Lovecraft. It's about a group of people who go on an expedition to Antarctica, discover a new city and some weird houses, and also encounter evil species.

After tossing for more than half a year, the cast and crew of the film have not yet been officially determined.

Gilmour said on the phone: "Bring your girlfriend to my house, you're very welcome." You should have called early and stayed with me directly, there was no need to book a hotel. ”

"My girlfriend has returned to China, and I'm alone now."

"Oh? Let's talk about it later. ”

Zhou Xuan immediately drove to Gilmour's estate.

Entering the living room, Gilmour leaned back on the sofa and smiled: "It's great that you're here, I've been busy lately, and I haven't watched your away finals." Now it's up to you to bring me some luck. If you make a bad joke, I'll feel better. ”

"How can I be lucky? My girlfriend doesn't turn on her mobile phone when she returns home, and she is going crazy if I can't contact her. Zhou Xuan sighed.

"Except for your girlfriend, I see that your luck is so good in other aspects, be content, she is not here, you may be able to take this opportunity to have something happen to other beauties." Gilmour laughed.

Zhou Xuan exhaled. "You're trying to kill me in the cold!"

After chatting for a while, the two went into the rain house to eat snacks, and Gilmour began to complain in the rainy night environment.

"I'm going to let James? Cameron acted as executive producer, so Tom? Cruise becomes the male lead. Everything went well, and the damn 'Universal' actually said that it couldn't be filmed because of budget overruns. Only 1. $500 million. ”

Zhou Xuan rolled his eyes. "That...... Dude, I heard that "The Battle of Los Angeles" was going to be fought from beginning to end, and it only cost 70 million. "Iron Man 2" has so much explosive investment, and it's the price you said. ”

Gilmour lazily said, "yes, it's very difficult for an R-rated film to recoup its costs, so I had to put the project on hold for the time being." Recently Travis gave me a new script, with Chinese elements. I originally wanted to put it on hold for two years, but "Crazy Mountain" can't be filmed, so I'll probably shoot this first, why don't you take a look at it and give some advice? ”

Travis, the screenwriter of "Murder in Wonderland," and Gilmour are old acquaintances, and the two often study movies together. Zhou Xuan has a super memory, and after this period of reading, he reads books and newspapers, and there is no problem in reading English.

"You look first, I'll go find some information, I'll see you later." Gilmour was worried that Zhou Xuan would be distracted from chatting and flashed.

Zhou Xuan began to read the script, the story is very simple, a movie with the theme of robots fighting monsters, called "Pacific Region", or "Pacific Rim".

The background is very peculiar, and monsters appear from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean and attack cities along the Pacific coast. At the beginning of the plot, the monsters destroyed Oakland and San Francisco, and the Warriors players hiccuped together, making Zhou Xuan sweat.

In order to fight monsters. Countries unite to research new weapons and their countermeasures, and the whole story is to fight monsters. Strangely, the weapons they are researching are not lethal missiles or nuclear bombs, but hand-to-hand combat between robots and monsters.

The protagonist began to drive a robot to be greedy for merit, made the mistake of left-leaning adventurism, his brother died in the mouth of a monster, the protagonist was stimulated, and had the idea of right-leaning capitulationism, and went into seclusion without officially resigning, becoming a migrant worker who moved bricks.

Five years later, the black general found the protagonist and said, "Dude, we can't stand it anymore, come with me to be the savior." Although the protagonist hasn't practiced and piloted robots for five years, he has also developed a good body by moving bricks, so he immediately agreed to drive the mecha hunter to fight monsters again.

It's a big span too.

Later, the more thunderous plot appeared, the heroine was actually a Japanese, obviously the place of battle was in Hong Kong, what happened to a Japanese, and I was not afraid of being shot to death by Chinese people who boycotted Japanese products and wanted to ******. The Japanese need mecha hunters to fight monsters, and there is Ultraman.

Later, there were a lot of thunder points, and the three brothers of the Chinese driver just had two lines and easily received the lunch. The Russian driver didn't even have a line to get the lunch, the protagonist and the Japanese actress hand-to-hand fight monster, only to know at the critical moment that Lu Dao turned out to be a weapon "chain sword" that was not used, and he held a container at the dock as a brick to shoot the monster to imply that the protagonist had been a migrant worker? What's even more exaggerated is that he also took a boat to use as a baseball bat......

Although it is a robot, will there be a swordsman who looks around in order to maintain a sense of mystery, picks up a mop and goes to fight with people? After the most lush, the protagonist's mecha blew itself up, blew up the wormhole, and won the battle, typical of American heroism. What the hell is going on with monsters, and nothing is explained for what they are attacking humans.

How to play a movie with this theme is the key, and the plot is secondary. Gilmour makes a film of complexity and depth, but this one doesn't need to. When the fat man came back, Zhou Xuan said some of his thoughts and complained wildly! I said everything that I thought was unreasonable and illogical.

What is the third arm of the Chinese mecha "Storm Red" for? It's too short to affect the balance and not hit the monster. Since there is such a high-tech thing as an ion cannon, why can't you build a melee weapon, wouldn't it be better to get a giant spear or something? The Russian broken mecha didn't even have a trick, so he went up to hammer people with his bare hands.

After complaining about the robot and spitting out real people, Zhou Xuan said: "The character creation is too simple, and it's very strange, since it's a Japanese woman, why will she be adopted by the black general?" Are the United States and Japan that close? Since it's in Hong Kong, why can't you use Chinese actors? Don't you want to have a little more Chinese elements? ”

"Then which Chinese actress do you think is suitable? Zhang Ziyi? Need to find a younger one. "Gilmour pressed one hand to his temple, in fact he didn't want to use a Chinese actress.

"No, I think this film can completely change the way of thinking, why does it have to be a Chinese actress and not a male actor? It is also possible to change the route in the setting. It's better not to use the Japanese, just as if the country doesn't exist. You should know what the relationship between China and Japan is, as long as the Japanese are the protagonists, the box office of this film in China will definitely decrease. And there are too few Chinese scenes, which will make Chinese audiences very unhappy. Zhou Xuan said with a smile.

Gilmour looked wistful. "Tell me about it."

"First of all, it's the setting of the male protagonist.,This person started to be very reckless.,After my brother died, I chose to escape.,Hide to be a construction worker.,The male protagonist of this setting looks like a coward." Zhou Xuan Zhengse said: "If you talk about the setting at the beginning, the drivers are almost all men, and it is easier for brothers to 'synaesthesia' to become hunters." And the protagonist is a beautiful sister, a very famous hunter. Then in one of the battles, my sister died. My younger sister retired from the army in order to take care of her sister's daughter, which would make her appear more humane and give up her career for the family. ”

Gilmour thought for a moment, then nodded, "Makes sense." And then what? ”

"Then it's the same as the script, the situation is very crisis, there are only four mecha left on the front in Hong Kong, and the military issued a notice to solicit people who will open three generations of mechas, but they are all dead, the heroine herself calculated that the monster attack time is shortening, hesitated again and again, in order to save mankind, she took the initiative to come back and contacted the general, and her niece wanted to be with her to meet the human crisis, so the two went to Hong Kong together."

"Very good, the inseparability of the apocalyptic complex does reflect human nature than the original script."

Zhou Xuan smiled and said: "Then the heroine encountered an embarrassing thing, synaesthesia entered the other party's brain, and now she has no sisters, and there is no female driver." So only the man is partnered with her, so that both parties must be secret and unreserved, and become intimate people. Here it is necessary to turn the Russian pair of drivers into men. ”

Gilmour nodded again. "There are more highlights than the original, and an ambiguous route is naturally introduced, and the relationship between the two in the original script is too abrupt."

Zhou Xuan then said some of his thoughts.

The heroine is a fighting genius, and she also taught in the martial arts hall during her retirement, and she found a partner in addition to looking at simulation data, but also played tricks with people. As a result, a group of men was no match for her. The young Chinese who had received her before came forward to defeat him. However, this Chinese young man has some shadows in his psychology and lacks confidence. The black general didn't want him to be a driver either.

Later, the two had synaesthesia, discovered each other's hearts, comforted each other, and untied the knot, the male protagonist had some feelings for the female protagonist, and learned from the female protagonist that the black general would die soon.

The male protagonist aspires to become a driver, and before the first battle, he called the adoptive father of the black general "Dad", and the black general shed tears, which made it more emotional.

Zhou Xuan said: "There is another suggestion, the male protagonist gave oxygen to the female protagonist and chose to control the mecha to self-detonate. In the last moment, a miracle popped up to survive.,The happy ending of the hero and heroine hugging each other is too vulgar.,I think it's better to let the male protagonist die.。 The adoptive father told him about the spirit of sacrifice before, he knew that the heroine still had a niece to take care of, and sacrifices had to be made at critical moments, and the tragic hero was more likely to be impressive, and the result was that the people in the base, the whole city was cheering, and the heroine was crying bitterly on the lifesaving cabin, which was in stark contrast. ”

Gilmour immediately remembered a famous director Christopher? Nolan, he likes to abuse the master very much when making films, and "The Dark Knight" made Batman take a lot of beatings, but won a good reputation. As for "Memory Fragments", the protagonist is even more abused to the point that he can't do it, and the tragedy is really impressive.

"It's so right to change it like this, it's really right to bring you in for a consultation, if this film sells well, I will definitely let people know that you have the credit for this." Gilmour laughed.

Zhou Xuanqi said: "You decided so quickly? ”

Gilmour shook his head. "Change the script first, wait to find an investor, find a film company, and negotiate it all early."
