Chapter 134: He, calling himself Jiansaw

James rolled his eyes after hearing Li Zhenning's translation, this is a movie that teaches people to cherish life and be grateful for life?

The devil will believe it!

He himself is famous in the circle of special effects makeup artists for creating bloody atmosphere effects, and Lin Nan also said that the reason for looking for him was to make a thriller, which required his skills to make blood type effects.

The selling point of this kind of horror thriller has always been the flying flesh and blood, the blood everywhere, and even the violent scenes such as stumps and broken arms, these things have nothing to do with cherishing life at all, let alone the theme of thanksgiving life, this Lin Nan is obviously scolding himself!

"Lin, you can't lie to me like that, now that we're partners, if you don't tell me your true purpose and the theme of the movie, it will make my work more difficult!"

After establishing a cooperative relationship with Lin Nan, James's title for Lin Nan also changed from Mr. Lin to Lin, and he became much more affectionate.

For this somewhat self-cooked James, Lin Nan also slowly began to like it a little, Lin Nan was originally a very good person to get along with, and James was very similar to Zhou Ping's temperament in a sense, so although the language of the two people did not understand each other, the relationship between them progressed very quickly, but they pitied Li Zhenning, and they could only be sandwiched between these two men all day long as a pigeon.

"James, I swear I definitely didn't lie to you, this movie I'm going to shoot is definitely about cherishing life and thanking life!" Lin Nan raised his hand and was about to swear, he didn't care if James could understand it or not, anyway, how to make James understand what he meant Li Zhenning should think.

After Li Zhenning struggled to explain what Lin Nan meant, James first frowned and thought about it, and then pointed at Lin Nan with a big change in his face: "Lin, you won't let me dress up as a pregnant woman to film them giving birth!" Then I will never do it, it is an insult to my profession! ”

The corners of Lin Nan's mouth twitched: "James, you're thinking too much, this is a thriller movie, you just need to do your old job!" ”

Naturally, James knew what his old job was. But it also made him even more puzzled: "How can such gore express the theme of cherishing life?" ”

"This is the aesthetics of violence!"

……

After signing the contract with James, Lin Nan was not in a hurry to return to Huaxia, but continued to stay in the United States.

First, because James still has a lot of things to deal with, because this departure is a month, and he always has to explain to his friends and the current company;

The second is that although it is indeed the most important task to come to the United States to find a special effects makeup artist, it is not the only task, in addition to this, Lin Nan also has an important goal, that is, to choose a suitable partner for himself.

His next film will mainly face the European and American markets, and now it is extremely important to find a partner.

The next few days. Lin Nan met with the senior management of many world-class film giants such as Universal Pictures, Paramount, and Twentieth Century Fox. There is no talk of deep friendship or cooperation. It's just a familiar face, paving the way for the future.

This time was a week, and in late January, Lin Nan and the others finally returned to Huaxia, which had been away for a week and a half. And unlike when they went, when they came back, there were two more foreigners in their team, and these two foreigners were naturally special effects makeup artist James and his assistants!

Lin Nan arranged a residence and translation for James as soon as possible to ensure that James' living conditions would not be affected too much, and after settling James, Lin Nan didn't have time to rest, so he hurriedly convened a meeting of his think tank.

Soon, a think tank headed by Jiang Lin, who was paralyzed from facial paralysis, appeared in the conference room on the top floor of Nanshan Film and Television Company, and ten people looked around the round table at Lin Nan, who was sitting in the first place. Waiting for Lin Nan to speak.

"Your heads are about to rust during this time, and now you have a new life!" As soon as Lin Nan said this, several people in the think tank burst out laughing, and after they were established, they only revised "People in Embarrassment", and there has been nothing since then. It's really almost moldy, and now when I hear Lin Nan say that there is a job, everyone is gearing up to do a big job.

Waving his hand to signal the group of excited people to calm down, Lin Nancai continued: "This time our mission is a thriller! ”

Hearing Lin Nan say that he was going to shoot a thriller, several people in the think tank frowned, and one of them stood up after thinking about it for a while and said: "But thrillers have not always taken the mass route, the audience is relatively limited, and they are not favored by mainstream media awards, so it is difficult to really become popular!" ”

After this person finished speaking, even Jiang Lin, who had been silent, nodded in agreement, although there are not many people watching thriller and horror films, they have always been resisted by the mainstream, the reason is that most of these movies are filled with too much bloody violence, which many people can't bear.

The reaction of several people was expected by Lin Nan, a horror thriller is indeed not a good choice, especially for today's Nanshan Film and Television Company, but that refers to an ordinary horror thriller, not that he is about to say this horror thriller!

"I know your concerns, the reason why horror thrillers are not accepted by the public is that all the selling points are based on the exciting scenes of flesh and blood, except for this, there are basically no highlights, it can be said that most of them are venting!" After Lin Nan said this, he paused slightly, and after bringing up the curiosity of several people, he continued: "But the movie planned to be shot this time is different from ordinary thrillers, I want to add some deep thinking to it while maintaining the selling point of this horror thriller!" ”

"How do I join? If you don't get it right, the bull's head will not be right on the horse's mouth, and the whole thing will not be like four! Jiang Lin's questioning of Lin Nan has always been straightforward and very unkind, and Lin Nan doesn't care about it, he knows that this is not Jiang Lin kicking his nose in the face, but because Jiang Lin is this temper, and Lin Nan also likes this, he doesn't like to beat around the bush when he speaks, and he doesn't like others to beat around the bush when others talk to him.

So in fact, the people who Lin Nan reuses are like this, such as Wei Junbo, such as Jiang Lin.

"So, let me tell you about my general idea first!" After picking up the water on the table and taking a sip, Lin Nan began to tell the story in his mind to the ten people in the think tank.

An engineer in his wife's hospital saw that his wife had a redemptive belief in helping addicts who had fallen into drug addiction, but in the end she not only failed to save the addicts, but lost the child in her womb in an accident.

After a failed suicide, he began to realize the true meaning of life, and he decided to teach those who did not value their lives and were not grateful for their lives in their own way to redeem themselves and make up for the mistakes they made because they did not value life.

So, he began to create an opportunity for those who had wasted their time and wasted their years, to create an opportunity to die, to see if they could understand the preciousness of their lives when death was approaching, and to see if they could learn to cherish their lives in such a desperate situation.

He is a terminally ill patient who is dying, but there are still many people who obviously have a better chance to live but do not know the blessings in the blessings, since these people do not cherish, then he must teach these people to cherish their lives, this is his belief!

Although his actions are not understood by the world, and even regarded as a perverted murderer, he still insists on his ideas, he does not kill anyone, he leaves everyone a chance to live.

Life or death is a matter of choice for each individual.

He, the self-proclaimed saw!

When Lin Nan finished telling a complete and logical story, all ten people in the conference room, including Jiang Lin, froze.

"This ...... It's genius......" muttered one member, already deeply shocked by the story.

Chen Yang couldn't hold it at this time: "Brother Nan, you are too powerful, you can figure it out, this movie is not popular, it makes no sense!" ”

Lin Nan had full confidence in this movie, and when he saw everyone like this, a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and then he asked Jiang Lin, "What do you think?" ”

"Very ...... Very good story! Jiang Lin took a deep breath before saying: "If it is just such a novel idea, then this movie can only be said to be a better movie at best, but coupled with the plot line that is comparable to a suspense movie, this will definitely be a very good film!" ”

Although Jiang Lin was expressionless at this time, the shock in his heart was very huge, the story that Lin Nan told just now, even if it was filmed as a suspense film, it would definitely be a box office hit, and now with the thriller element in it, the perfect fit between the two makes this film instantly raise a notch!

"The whole story is complete, what do we need to do?" As the captain, Jiang Lin was naturally the most concerned about their tasks, so after being amazed, he began to ask.

Lin Nan shook his head and said: "What I want to shoot is a real masterpiece, what I just told you is just a plot line, and the specific details still need you to plump up, and you also have a task to find logical loopholes, patch it, and notify me in time if anyone has any good ideas, and make the finished product as soon as possible!" ”

"How much time do we have?" Chen Yang asked.

"Now there are five days left before the Chinese New Year, and before the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, I want to see the script of the first part that can be filmed directly!"

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

"By the way, boss, what's the name of this movie?"

"Name? Let's call it "Saw Horror"! ”
