"Jiang Lin, didn't you say before that your company would also make movies? This is the script I wrote, and I've revised it again in the past few days, do you think it's okay? ”

On Monday morning, as soon as Jiang Lin sat down in his seat, Xiao Wen couldn't wait to hand him a script. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Jiang Lin couldn't laugh or cry, he said that he would invest in filming movies in the future, but the future is the future, not now, not to mention anything else, funding is a big problem, unlike writing and painting, the production of movies requires high capital investment, without capital investment, everything is impossible.

"Okay, I'll take a look." With a helpless smile, Jiang Lin looked at the script in his hand, "Chunmei's Marriage", this is the title of the script, and it is obviously not famous from this name alone, and it is completely impossible to judge the type and theme of the movie.

After understanding this, Jiang Lin opened the script directly, his eyes fell on the specific content, and as the pages turned, he gradually had a general understanding of the storyline and ideological theme of "Chunmei's Marriage".

How so? Sure enough, it is very in line with the style that Xiao Wen has always advocated, this is a story based on reality and leading to thought, a story full of pathos and tears, the story tells the story of Zhu Chunmei, a good student with excellent character and learning, because of his bad gambling father, who had to end high school and marry the son of the village party secretary, Cui Dapeng, a famous ruffian in the whole Huangshi Town, gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses after marriage, the Cui family is the richest family in the village, although Cui Dapeng people are relatively muddy, but they really like Chunmei, although this is not the life that Chunmei likes, But life is undoubtedly relatively happy.

Who knew that after two years of marriage, the situation changed abruptly, first Cui Jiashu, who was the village party secretary, because of corruption. He was sentenced to eight years in prison for defeat, all the family's savings were confiscated, and Cui Dapeng was broken his right leg and left hand, becoming disabled, and then his mother-in-law couldn't stand the double blow and died of a violent illness, and for a while, the pressure of life was all pressed on Chunmei.

Seeing that the Cui family was ruined, Zhu's father, who had been receiving help from the Cui family, persuaded Chunmei to divorce and remarry, and Chunmei, who was dissatisfied with her marriage, naturally had the intention to divorce, but Cui Dapeng refused to let go and asked Chunmei to support him for life.

Chunmei's life suddenly became miserable, she not only had to support the disabled Cui Dapeng, her two children, and Zhu's father and mother, but also faced the greedy Zhu's father and Cui Dapeng, whose personality began to be distorted.

In the painful life, Chunmei met Dou Xiao, a college student village official sent down, Dou Xiao's humor and gentleness deeply attracted her, and then the two who had a good impression of each other fell in love, this is Chunmei's first love, and the wonderful feeling of love made her whole person come to life.

Dou Xiao didn't mind that Chunmei already had two children, but the twisted Cui Dapeng and the greedy Zhu's father made him tired of coping, coupled with the opposition of his family, he finally chose to end his relationship with Chunmei, and left the village and returned to the city.

The emotional blow made Chunmei collapse all of a sudden, she thought that her miserable life was all caused by Zhu's father and Cui Dapeng, and on a stormy night, she killed the two and committed suicide herself.

In the cynicism of the villagers, Zhu's mother, who couldn't stand the blow, went crazy all of a sudden.

At the end of the story, Dou Xiao, who was already married, adopted Chunmei's twin children and stood in front of Chunmei's grave for a long time.

couldn't even take care of class, Jiang Lin put all his mind on "Chunmei's Marriage", and after reading the script, he was also silent for a long time. Corruption, human greed and distortion...... "Chunmei's Marriage" involves too many thought-provoking things, which are then combined into Chunmei's tragic life.

But this is not the most shocking thing for Jiang Lin.

For a long time, for literary films, Jiang Lin has a kind of psychological behavior that immediately retreats when he sees the label of literary films, the reason is that in addition to his personal dislike of the tone of sadness and depression, but also because literary films are generally pretended to be profound, which is inexplicable to watch, he admires the easy-to-understand and touching nature of literary films, but it is obvious that together with the original time and space, there are very few literary films in the Chinese film industry that meet this requirement, and it is gratifying that there is now a film with that potential, yes, it is "Chunmei's Marriage".

Jiang Lin couldn't help but glance at Xiao Wen, who was listening attentively next to him, compared to himself, this is the real screenwriter genius, he has no doubt that the other party will continue to work hard and become a representative figure of literary film directors like Jia Zhangke and Lou Ye.

Specific to the script of "Chunmei's Marriage", everything else is good, the lines obviously need to be improved, and it should be changed to a pure dialect somewhere, after further improvement of this, as long as you do your best in production and shooting, it is entirely possible for the film to reach the artistic level of the original time and space "Tuya's Marriage" and "Blind Mountain".

It's just that.

"How?" As soon as it was time for the break from class, Xiao Wen immediately asked.

"Overall very good, just." Speaking of this, Jiang Lin paused, and his expression was quite embarrassed: "It's not so easy to pass the review of the Film Bureau, and the story is too sad, and it is difficult to guarantee the box office." ”

"I know." Xiao Wen suddenly became depressed, and the desire in his eyes was clearly visible: "Then are you willing to invest in shooting?" ”

"From the perspective of commercial investment, I will tell you that you must be cautious when investing in such a film, but also as a screenwriter, from my personal point of view, I think such a film should be made and should be seen by the public, but you also know that my current financial strength is limited and I can't afford huge losses at all." Jiang Lin said helplessly.

"I know, I know." Xiao Wen said depressedly.

"I haven't finished my sentence yet, I have an idea, I don't know if you want to?" The corners of Jiang Lin's mouth turned up.

"What thoughts?" Xiao Wen looked up at Jiang Lin.

"In this way, you let me take advantage of it and sell me this script, I will pay you a deposit of 50,000 yuan first, and after you further improve the script, I will pay you another 50,000, and then I hope you can do your best to improve your directing level, and then you will personally direct "Chunmei's Marriage", and when you have the ability to make a good movie, I believe that at that time, I also have the foundation to bear losses, and then we will join forces to shoot "Chunmei's Marriage" earth-shattering, do you think it is okay?" Jiang Lin said with a smile, if a potential stock like Xiao Wen is not won over in advance, it will be destroyed.

"Really?" Xiao Wen couldn't hide his excitement.

"Do you think I'm lying?" Jiang Lin spread his hands.

"Thank you Jiang Lin, I will definitely work hard." Xiao Wen said solemnly.

"I believe in you, and we're working together." Jiang Lin clenched his fists and cheered.

"Well, let's work together." Chauvin smiled.

Time came to noon in a blink of an eye, and after lunch, Jiang Lin dialed Su Xue's mobile phone number for the first time.

"What's the matter?" As soon as the phone was connected, a faint voice sounded on the phone, thousands of miles away, Su Xue frowned slightly, guessing the purpose of Jiang Lin's call.

"What do you think?" Jiang Lin joked noncommittally, he really wanted to sign Su Xue, but it didn't mean that he had to curry favor with the other party in a low voice, the system was in hand, I had it in the world, Su Xue didn't sign a contract with herself, it would only be her loss.

"Have you already written the script?" Su Xue had a surprised expression on her face, full of disbelief, how long has it been since "Young Bao Qingtian" announced the investment and filming, how could Jiang Lin write a movie script that can be recognized by himself in such a short time.

Well, it's not completely impossible, in the history of Chinese and foreign films, there are examples of classic movies written in just a few days, but they correspond to Jiang Lin very little.

"It's not really, but it's about the script." Jiang Lin pretended to be appetizing and did not continue.

In normal times, Su Xue must have hated this, but her attention is now completely occupied by the keyword of movie script.

"What's going on?" Su Xue asked subconsciously.

"Guess?" Jiang Lin said angrily.

Su Xue suddenly gritted her silver teeth, "Love to say it or not", almost said in a voice squeezed out between her teeth.

Jiang Lin had a smile in his eyes, not to mention, compared to Su Xue, who is usually unapproachable and unattainable, Su Xue, who is like a little daughter at this time, has a charm, at least he prefers the current other party.

"Don't be angry, women get angry and grow old quickly, and they will soon become yellow-faced women, how can I explain to Su Chang when the time comes, it's like this, I have a very good movie script at hand, the story is about Zhu Chunmei, a good student with excellent character and learning, who had to end high school because of his bad gambling father, and married the son of the village party secretary...... How about it, isn't it great, I have asked the screenwriter to start modifying the language of the lines to make it more vernacular, maybe it will be another literary masterpiece. Jiang Lin said with a smile.

"When does the movie start?" Su Xue couldn't wait to ask, after listening to the content of the story, she immediately fell in love with this tragic movie.

"In two or three years, I'm going to let the screenwriter direct it himself, and he needs a time to improve himself." Jiang Lin said casually.

Su Xue was depressed in her heart, and said angrily: "Then why are you calling me now?" ”

"Good news for you, don't you want to act?" Jiang Lin teased again.

This guy, Su Xue was extremely angry, the best response at this time was undoubtedly disdainful of "Chunmei's Marriage", but she obviously couldn't do it, if there was no problem with the rhythm of the story and the language of the lines, "Chunmei's Marriage" was undoubtedly a very good movie script, as an actor, an actor who was bent on making a difference on the big screen, it was difficult for her to refuse such a movie, so she could only remain silent.

"If you don't speak, it means that you have acquiesced, it seems that I can only find someone else, who is more suitable?" Jiang Lin said to himself.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?" Su Xue gritted her teeth and said.

"Ha, of course it's a sign, a long contract." Jiang Lin said proudly.

"Didn't we make an agreement that you would write a movie script that I approved before I signed the contract?" Su Xue said angrily.

"That's right, but isn't that a change in the situation? You hope to achieve outstanding performance in the field of film, "Chunmei's Marriage" is enough to prove the talent of the screenwriter, the other party will join my company later, with him, there will definitely be no shortage of good scripts, is this not enough for you to sign a contract, as for my screenwriting strength, you can rest assured.

If you have to insist on waiting for me to tailor a script for you before signing a contract, of course there is no problem, but I just signed two actors with extraordinary potential, a man and a woman, and you also know the female one, it is Shen Mengchen, as my own artist, I will definitely give priority to them as the protagonist to create the script, you can only wait for so long, are you willing to be suppressed by Shen Mengchen in the future, only if you also sign a contract, I can justifiably create an exclusive script for you. Jiang Lin Chengzhu said in his chest.

Su Xue bit her lip lightly, although she knew that Jiang Lin was fooling her into signing the contract, she had to admit that Jiang Lin's words were indeed directed at her vital point.

However.

"I understand what you mean, but it's still the same sentence, I will only sign with your company when I see the script you wrote." After just a little silence, Su Xue regained her usual composure, the so-called principle is based on absolute strength, she has full confidence in her own strength, she believes that Jiang Lin will not see the gap between herself and Shen Mengchen.

Ni Mei, this time it was Jiang Lin's turn to be depressed, he originally thought that he would persuade Su Xue to sign a contract, but it ended in failure, and it turned out that Su Xue's difficulty was still on top of his imagination.

But what is this, Jiang Lin quickly regained a confident smile, Su Xue, Su Xue, you will belong to me sooner or later, cough, artist. (To be continued.) )
