At two o'clock in the afternoon, on the other side of the Atlantic, in the network office of the Los Angeles Writers Guild, media spokesman Mike Taylor had just finished answering a reporter's call, and he used his fingers to irritably sit on the table and take a cigarette from his mouth.

As a professional writer for the authoritative film publication "Film Weekly", he is worried about the content of his own column in this issue of "Film Weekly", originally Schwarzenegger's campaign for governor of California was his most haode subject, but this big movie star suddenly announced that he would abandon the selection, which made his interview a scrapped manuscript, and suddenly William, the website information staff in charge of review, knocked on the door and entered.

"Taylor, look at this post, Ridley Scott has been taught a lesson by a kid."

"What?"

McTaylor was a little discouraged, he didn't hear it too clearly, he just glanced at the laptop he handed over, saw the name of the gangster, and said to himself: "Scott, this old guy is fighting with the boys again?" Can't he let go of these new kids? ”

This British director often confronts others about his films on the association's website, and everyone in the association is already afraid of this thorny "gangster...... McTaylor also thought William's "lesson" was an irony.

"This time it's Ridley Scott who gets it fixed." William's acne-covered face had a very strange smile.

"Repaired?" McTyler, after figuring out what William meant, became intrigued and began to look at the post carefully, his dim eyes slowly brightening.

Fun, just so funny! A kid actually taught the invincible Ridley Scott. Can...... It's not just funny, this article ...... Well, "Save the Cat"? The more I look at it, the more I feel that this is simply a genius stroke! The more McTaylor watched it, the more excited he became, and his mind was filled with the magical taxonomy of this novel and sophisticated film analysis article.

William looked at his distracted boss, smiled and went out and closed the door casually, he didn't have the same reaction when he saw it at the time.

After watching it for an afternoon, McTyler suddenly twisted his sore neck, and couldn't wait to pick up the phone and shout: "Quick, quick, find out who this person is!" ”

The theme of this issue of "Film Weekly" can finally be chosen.

Early in the morning, Li Xiaole hurried to go out to the nearby decoration store to buy some putty powder, waterproof glue, brushes and other things, and rented a ladder. Today's task is to apply waterproof glue to the water seepage on the roof of the newly rented office and paint the dilapidated walls white!

According to the regulations of the Seoul Ministry of Industry and Commerce, there will be an examination after the application is obtained, and the owner must have a fixed place of business. After getting the business license, Li Xiaole found an office near the street nearby and rented it, and the aunt's landlord said that he could tinker with the office as much as he wanted, provided that he was not allowed to cook here. The landlord, who made her fortune selling pickles, is said to be frustrated by the smell of pickles in the air, which seems to affect the style of her Chanel perfume.

Anyway, Li Xiaole doesn't plan to fire here, he just wants to organize this room, which has some water seepage on the roof and has a small space, into a room that can accommodate some photographic equipment, a table and a computer to make others look like a production company, and the previous room is really inconvenient.

Although this neighborhood is relatively remote, the deposit for the rental room still costs less than half of the 6 million won in his hand (daomengren can see the fastest update). Fortunately, there is no need to worry about the follow-up problems for the time being, and he does not need to pay for the next plan, Ha Zhiyuan has not come yet, so Li Xiaole himself is painting the wall, and thinking about the next move by the way.

There are three main problems to be solved in the filming of "Color is Empty": actors, funds, equipment and venues.

Last night, he has received several emails from Los Angeles on the Internet, three of which are from a headhunting company in Los Angeles, hoping that he will join a local film review writing company, and want him to be a professional film critic, of course he can't agree due to identity issues, and two are invitations from magazines, including "Film Weekly" hoping to publish his invitation to save cats, because it is a school graduation thesis, involving copyright issues, he has handed over the contact information of Dankook University to the other party.

Three days ago, Ha Ji Won has submitted the thesis to the department for review, and he will defend it in two days, if he successfully passes, and "Film Weekly" can publish this paper, he can meet the hard indicator of "the paper is published in an authoritative academic journal in the United States", and the quota conditions for applying for "student film support" at Dankook University will be met.

Most of the filming locations of "Color is Empty" are on university campuses, and if you apply for the "Student Film Assistance" quota, the venue and equipment can naturally be provided by Dankook University.

Calculated and calculated, the cost is at least about 600,000 yuan, which is almost 100 million won (daomengren see the fastest update). This money is easy for any producer in Korea, but for a poor student, it is definitely a huge amount of money.

The key problem now is that the premise of wanting other investors to be willing to lend him money is that they need to have resources that convince the other party, and it is unrealistic to rely on a wonderful script to pull 100 million won, any investment company has professional risk assessment experts, as long as the risk coefficient is not up to standard, no one will be full and have nothing to do to take the money to take risks.

In the Korean industry, the value of an actor is the most important factor in measuring the investment of a film. If Zhang Dongjian is of this level, just by virtue of his name Zhang Dongjian, it is worth at least 5 billion won of investment, and those well-known directors can easily gain the trust of investors, and the most important thing is to invite these actors with market appeal.

But Li Xiaole can't even invite a third-rate Korean star, although he knows that Ha Ji Won is a superstar in the future, he can't hold the hand of the investor and say: "Boss, the box office of this actor will exceed 10 million in the future, you must be right to invest......"

So he can only find his own way to increase the popularity of Ha Ji Won itself in the short term. It's nerve-wracking, but he's already in the middle of it, and he's got a brilliant idea.

Thinking that everything was going smoothly as expected, sitting on the ladder to repair the corner of the roof seepage, Li Xiaole couldn't help but start humming a song, happily, the mobile phone rang suddenly, took out the mobile phone and saw that it was Ha Zhiyuan, so he answered the passage: "It's so early again?" ”

"I'm here to supervise you to see if you're lazy!"

Ha Ji Won's brisk voice came from the phone: "I'm at the corner of the street where you gave me the address right now, but I don't know how to walk in." ”

"Oh, you're waiting for me right there." Li Xiaole put away the thread, pulled his coat from the rotten sofa and put it on, and walked downstairs quickly.

Coming to the outside of the office, the sky was drifting with light snow, Ha Ji Won rubbed his hands and saw Li Xiaole coming out in the distance, smiling and waving, probably because she knew that she was going to help Li Xiaole paint the wall today, so she wore a jacket and jeans that looked very old.

Li Xiaole frowned slightly, because Ha Zhiyuan was also accompanied by a man and a woman in his twenties, tall, thin, handsome men, and the one next to him was a single-eyelid girl with a hot pear blossom head, and the two looked at this side coldly, obviously a little hostile.

"Li Xiaole-" The pear blossom-headed girl looked over, but her expression instantly changed to kind, and she greeted with a smile, and her high-pitched voice was like some kind of bird, a little harsh.

"Senior Sister Huang, why are you here?" Li Xiaole didn't want to deal with Huang Shumin, the stinky face senior sister of the acting department, but after all, she was Ha Ji Yuan's best friend and colleague, so she said hello anyway. These two little artists of Zhang's agency usually look at themselves in various unpleasant ways, could it be that they took the wrong medicine today?

"Li Xiaole, Zhao Xianzai and I are here to give you daoqian today." Huang Shumin was so polite, which made Li Xiaole even more surprised

“daoqian？ What do you mean? Li Xiaole pretended to be stupid.

"Actually, last time we were really wrong, and the one who scolded you in the company was sent by an authoritarian country to eat soft rice, this kind of thing is really too much......"

As the most famous school grass in Dankook University, Zhao Xianzai's angular face exuded a certain kind of arrogance of Lao Tzu's invincible handsomeness in the world, and he bent his tall body and said apologetically: "If President Zhang hadn't stopped him at that time, I wouldn't have been impulsive to do it with you at the moment, I'm really embarrassed." Saying that, there was no apology in his tone, and he didn't think he was wrong about the two of them arguing about the persecution of religious figures in China that day.

Li Xiaole had a little impression of that conflict, these two acting classmates were recommended by Ha Zhiyuan to sign under Zhang Damin, and they thought they could have a bright future in the film and drama industry, but they didn't expect that Zhang's agency was not doing well, and they didn't provide any opportunities in recent years.

It is estimated that he has been depressed and depressed in the company for a long time, and he is very unhappy when he sees himself next to Ha Ji Yuan, the former school flower, every day, and always thinks that he has lowered Ha Ji Yuan's popularity in school, and Ha Ji Yuan has also been squeezed out by his classmates, so he didn't give him a good look.

"Oh, senior sister, it's nothing, I don't remember if you don't say it." Of course, Li Xiaole will not worry about these young people, not to mention the little white face who is disliked, he did not have this blessing in his previous life.

"Okay, you're welcome, be careful that I'll deduct your wages again!" Ha Ji Won pretended to be angry and pushed the two helpers inside.

Li Xiaole led the way in front, Ha Jiwon followed behind, Huang Shumin and the two looked at the surrounding environment curiously all the way, and Zhao Xianzai said with disgust: "There is still an office in this district, isn't there a seafood market next to it?" It's all fish and shrimp smell, it smells so good that people want to vomit......" Before Zhao Xianzai finished speaking, Huang Shumin glared at him, before they came, they said that they were going to act in front of Ha Ji Won, don't show the stuffing before you start, Li Xiaole couldn't help but smile in his eyes, and suddenly smelled a strange smell, it seemed to be men's cologne.

Strange, it seems to have floated over from Huang Shumin, Li Xiaole quietly observed the hair on the back of her head, and inadvertently leaned over to Zhao Xianzai, smelling the same smell, and laughed dumbly.
