When Ning Hao entered the door, Du Jiayi was still browsing the entertainment news of the world on the computer. It may be that someone in history breathed a breath, and this world is very different from the original world. As far as entertainment is concerned, the development is very slow, and the popular star Du Jiayi only knows a few, but there are some whose names have changed, and their appearance is still the same as in their memory.

The backwardness of the Internet and mobile Internet is also lagging behind in terms of entertainment level. Domestic films are still in the era of lack of success, the older generation of directors are close to retiring, and the backbone wants to learn from Hollywood's big investment, big production and high box office, but the movies made have been complained by the audience.

Perhaps when the Internet develops further, some of the new generation of directors will be able to take advantage of this to set sail.

"I thought you weren't calling me!" Du Jiayi smiled and asked Ning Hao to sit down,

Ning Hao was still nervous in his heart, especially in the face of Du Jiayi, a big financier. Whether the movie can be made or not, that is, Du Jiayi's sentence, if he is still not satisfied with the script, the movie "Thief Among Thieves" will have a bumpy fate.

"One person doesn't have enough energy, and it's more time-consuming to revise." Ning Hao bowed and explained.

In fact, Du Jiayi doesn't understand script creation, especially in revising the budget and the content of the script, and in order to ensure the coherence of the script, it has to be revised before and after, so as to be consistent. However, Ning Hao will not explain clearly at this time, which will give Du Jiayi a feeling of strong words, and it will also lose Du Jiayi's face.

The name of the script is still a thief among thieves, and Du Jiayi feels strange when he looks at it. I know who proposed to change the name when I was in another world, but in this world, it must be Du Jiayi.

"First of all, the name, I want to change it." Du Jiayi muttered, "A thief among thieves, it feels like a police movie, and it is easy to cause unnecessary trouble." Moreover, the first thing everyone knows is the name of the movie, and it is difficult for the thief among thieves to attract the attention of the audience. ”

Ning Hao nodded: "I didn't think about it so much when I was creating it at that time, and now it's a bit inappropriate to make it into a movie." Du Shao, what do you think of the name? ”

Ning Hao was mentally prepared at a very early stage, as long as Du Jiayi was willing to invest in movies, let alone change the topic, even if it was a different protagonist.

"When I read the script before, all the plot threads revolved around the Emerald Gem."

"Why don't you change the title to "Crazy Stone"!"

Du Jiayi asked Ning Hao's opinion, after all, he is a director.

"Crazy stones?" Ning Hao silently recited it, "Madness not only points out the madness of wealth and silk, but also highlights the whole atmosphere of black humor. ”

"That's a good name!" Ning Hao swung his thighs excitedly, almost jumping up from the chair.

"If this movie is done well, it can be developed into a series in the future!" Du Jiayi said meaningfully. Ning Hao is behind the crazy stone, there is also a crazy racing car, and later there is a crazy year beast. However, among the young beasts, Ning Hao has evolved from a director to a producer.

To Jiayi opened the revised script with great anticipation, and if nothing else, this small-budget comedy film that pioneered China will be made according to this script.

After two days of sleepless revision of the script, Ning Hao felt that the script was close to perfection. But Du Jiayi's face did not have the same kindness as before, and the more he turned back, the more serious his expression became.

Du Jiayi didn't expect that his intervention would lead Ning Hao to a flashy fork in the road, which was committed by many eliminated directors.

The narrative structure of Crazy Stone is the same as Guy Ritchie's two large smoking guns, which is why it is often criticized. But it has its own characteristics. The film as a whole uses crossover montage to tell the story, the three clues are sometimes connected, sometimes disconnected, and a piece of time and space is divided into three angles, which greatly increases the capacity of the film and makes the details richer, especially in the second half of the film, the three clues continue to collide, and the camera is quickly cut between the three perspectives, making people dare not miss any detail.

Of course, the performances of the actors in the film are also very unique and distinctive, not to mention Xu Zheng and Huang Bo, who will become popular in the future, Guo Tao, Liu Hua and Squirrel Xun's acting skills are absolutely first-class.

The excellent narrative structure, the director's shooting techniques, and sincere acting skills are the reasons for the success of the whole movie.

After getting enough budget, Ning Hao's first thing he wanted was to do a big job, so when he revised the script and determined the actors, he added many scenes that were completely unnecessary.

"Do you want to invite the popular student to play Xie Xiaomeng in the movie?"

In the film, Xie Xiaomeng is the son of Director Xie, who is messing with flowers and grass under the guise of engaging in art, and in order to please women, he started the idea of jade gemstones. But I didn't expect to be kidnapped and tortured later.

Ning Hao explained: "Other characters need ordinary appearances, but this Xie Xiaomeng can be handsome." Nowadays, there are many star chasers, and we must also take into account the needs of young people. ”

Du Jiayi put down the script in his hand: "Then you gave the highest salary to the handsome idol guy who played Xie Xiaomeng?" ”

Faced with Du Jiayi's inquiry, Ning Hao didn't know where to start.

Inviting an idol male star to participate in the performance is completely in the psychology of catering to the market. In the current downturn in the film market, it is difficult to ensure profitability by relying on the film itself. The unprofitability of the movie will lead to the difficult birth of the next movie, Ning Hao wants to be a big director, and the first major movie must ensure profitability.

caters to the plot of the market, caters to the male stars of the market, and appropriately creates topics when the time comes, Ning Hao believes that this film with an investment of millions will definitely be able to recover the investment.

When Ning Hao was about to explain, Du Jiayi directly interrupted him.

"What exactly do you want to make a movie like?" Du Jiayi said in a deep voice, "The pursuit of gorgeous and huge scenes, handsome and beautiful actors, and the expression of profound thoughts......"

"You're not making a literary film now, this is a commercial low-budget comedy, is it necessary to make the scene look like a world war?"

Du Jiayi pointed out a plot in the script, in order to bring out the power of the international thief Ike, Ning Hao specially designed a plot for him to crawl on a skyscraper, and the budget for this scene will exceed 100,000. Du Jiayi has no clip in the original movie, it is completely added by Ning Hao now.
