Chapter 207 It's called "The Saint of Gambling"

"Have you watched God of Gamblers?"

Wong Kar-wai and Liu Zhenwei looked at each other and smiled, nodded and said, "Another masterpiece of Dongcheng Image, of course I saw it." [No pop-up novel network]"

"Oh? The two of you watched it together" Lu Yan smiled, in fact, as a Hong Kong filmmaker. I often go to the movies with my best friends, but more often I go to discover the highlights: "What do you think? ”

"The box office speaks for itself, even though the plot doesn't seem particularly stellar. But the main victory is in the focus of the story, making movies in the way of gambling, "God of Gamblers" deserves to create the trend of "gambling films". It is not difficult to imagine that there will definitely be a lot of gambling films in the coming period" Speaking of this, Liu Zhenwei smiled again: "Of course, the framing of the Lisboa Casino, as well as the boss's personal appearance, are eye-catching."

Wong Kar-wai likes to pay attention to some special shots: "The shooting of the God of Gamblers when he enters and exits the field, that feeling is very strong. Especially the whole moral of the story, which makes people reverie a lot. Although Gao Jin won the final gamble, he lost his brother and wife...... But in the end, Ann's ending made people feel more hopeful than disappointed."

"In fact, I'm trying to ignite the gambling craze." Saying that, Lu Yan looked at Liu Zhenwei and said, "My idea is still a gambling movie." How about the town viagra interested? ”

"Gambling films...... Liu Zhenwei muttered, but his mind was thinking quickly. Although it is said that the sequel cannot be surpassed by the first episode, the current Lu Yan is undoubtedly giving himself a chance. If you go to another company, I guess you will stay in the screenwriting department honestly. Even if you are given the opportunity to take charge of the guide tube, you will definitely be pressed by the producer.

But as Lu Yan said just now, the producer is Wang Jing. To put it mildly, a large part of the meaning is that Wang Jing just came to help shoot.

What's more, Dongcheng Image is very abundant in terms of funds. When it comes to filming, there are very few things to worry about outside of the movie. In this case, this is indeed a good opportunity.

Just as Liu Zhenwei was about to open his mouth to answer, Lu Yan smiled and said, "Of course, you don't have to worry about Zhen Viagra." In fact, my idea is not a sequel to "God of Gamblers". Of course, there is still a connection between the front and the back. If you understand that you are using "God of Gamblers" to make another profit, it's nothing. Now that the company is about to expand, I wonder if I should build a set......"

"Of course, if you hadn't come. This movie, perhaps, will be ready to be filmed in a while. Lu Yan fiddled with the script that had been preliminarily written, took it out and handed it over, and said, "Originally, I also thought about filming it myself, or letting Wang Jing shoot it." I've made several different types of films, so I wanted to challenge myself to write a comedy for you to watch......"

As he spoke, Lu Yan handed over the first draft in his hand and said, "This movie is about a few newcomers or unsatisfactory actors who want to promote new people who have joined the company. The male lead, I set Stephen Chow. You shouldn't have heard of this guy, he was admitted to the Tvb training class in the same class as Tony Leung. It's just that he works the night shift and keeps playing tricks. But I think this person is very shapely, so I gave him a chance. The supporting actors are Wu Mengda and Andy Lau. The heroine is also a newcomer, named Zhang Min. is the beauty who played Chow Yun-fat's girlfriend in "God of Gamblers"

"No wonder" Wong Kar-wai muttered in his heart as he listened to Lu Yan talk eloquently.

No wonder Lu Yan gave this script to Liu Zhenwei to shoot, it turned out that most of them were newcomers. This movie is also simply hoping to use "God of Gamblers" to make another gambling film to make them popular? However, muttering and muttering, Wong Kar-wai still has some understanding of Lu Yan's style.

Lu Yan has been in a lot of trouble since he left New Arts City, and then he became a well-known director in Hong Kong. Wong Kar-wai is naturally very concerned about Lu Yan. He knows very well that this director likes to use newcomers, or so-called temporarily unsatisfactory actors. But often the people who participated in the filming of his films naturally became popular. It's hard to say, this is Liu Zhenwei's chance

And Liu Zhenwei didn't think about it so much, and was looking at the script seriously. In his opinion, Lu Yanken was already very bold to give him this opportunity. In terms of actors, of course, it doesn't matter. As long as the script is good, it should be no problem for the actor to act attentively at that time. But as soon as he opened the script, he was immediately surprised.

"Boss, is this star boy capable of special functions?"

Although it is the first draft, many of the ideas and novel ideas in it are already clear at a glance.

"The star boy I arranged is to become a gambling saint and turn the tide, but Stephen Chow's dead look doesn't have Chow Yun-fat's style. When I heard that there was a hot topic about "special functions" in the mainland, I thought, 'How can a small person become a persuasive hero?' I think 'special functions' are the best way to escape from reality. Of course, this is only the first draft. There are a lot of things that are not yet perfected, and we can discuss and complete this script together. What do you think? "The movie "Gambling Saint" became popular with Stephen Chow all of a sudden, and he officially completed the jump from 'Xingzai' to 'Xingye' with this movie.

But although this script left a lot of deep impressions on Lu Yan, many details were not remembered so clearly. Therefore, Lu Yan was also filming "Rouge Buckle", while slowly writing "The Saint of Gambling". Unexpectedly, at such a time, Liu Zhenwei suddenly appeared in front of him.

This is undoubtedly to help Lu Yan better complete "The Saint of Gambling". Because of this, Lu Yan thought about it and simply took "The Saint of Gambling" as an opportunity for Liu Zhenwei to rise. Even if the current Liu Zhenwei may not be able to grasp the movie "The Saint of Gambling" so well, there should be no problem with Wang Jing as a producer. At that time, you can also visit the class often, and everyone can discuss filming together.

After carefully browsing the script, Liu Zhenwei handed the script to Wong Kar-wai and said: "Boss, many ideas in this script are very novel, especially some dialogues and ideas, which are too ingenious." This movie, I made"

"It's mostly comedy, so you can polish it up and add some funnier parts to it." Lu Yan still hopes that the movie "The Saint of Gambling" will have a better breakthrough, and everyone's ideas are different in each period. It's hard to know that Liu Zhenwei Huai is not talented now, and he will be more attentive if he has such an opportunity. "The Saint of Gambling" is bound to be another style

Liu Zhenwei nodded, the first draft of "The Saint of Gambling" does have a lot to polish. He has also made up his mind, and during this time, he will have more contact with Lu Yan to complete this script and say: "By the way, the full text ~ word } O~O, boss." When will your "Rouge Buckle" be completed? I've seen a report recently that it's almost finished, right? ”

"Well, it's going to be finished soon." Of course, Lu Yan knew what Liu Zhenwei meant, and said with a smile: "It's okay." Now there are only those scenes left in "Rouge Buckle". And most of them are night plays, you can always come to me to discuss the matter of "The Saint of Gambling". Except, of course, I'm shooting. Huh"

"Okay, then I have to nag the boss at that time."

Listening to the sound of the 'boss', when it came to this, Lu Yan finally understood why he always felt a little weird, and said: "Zhen viagra, you all call me Yan Zai." I'm really not used to your 'boss', everyone usually calls me Yanzai, you are welcome, everyone is harmonious, and it will be convenient to get along and work in the future. ”

"Hehe, then you're welcome." Liu Zhenwei smiled, and he was not used to calling Lu Yan 'boss' all the time, and said: "Yan Zai, in fact, the guard is also quite talented......

These two people really deserve to be brothers who see the truth in adversity. It's all Huai Cai, so they immediately sympathize with each other.

For Wong Kar-wai's talent, Lu Yan is still very sure. However, in addition to being the founder of Wong's aesthetic films, Wong Kar-wai has a name that makes investors afraid. That's the 'burning director' of his films, although each one is very classic. But often the drag scene is very powerful, and it can take several days to shoot a shot...... In terms of investment, it is very costly. But you can't deny that this director has such a talent that makes you willing to invest.

Other bosses may be afraid, but Lu Yan is not afraid that it doesn't matter if you drag the scene, it doesn't matter if you shoot slowly. Even if the funds are not recovered, it doesn't matter. If you Wong Kar-wai can make a good movie, then I will be willing to invest

In fact, using Wong Kar-wai is equivalent to adding a sense of heaviness to the film company for Dongcheng Images. Lu Yan positioned himself as not a film businessman. He wants to contribute to Hong Kong films, and he is eager to continue the legend of Hong Kong films. I can make money from other movies, but you Wong Kar-wai at least have to give me a guarantee, right?

Use commercial films to conquer the box office, and literary films to conquer word-of-mouth and professional judges.

This is Lu Yan's plan, a two-pronged approach. First of all, the quality control of Dongcheng Imaging's films was controlled, and even other film companies that fought with them had to spend time making equally good movies to compete with themselves

After all, veteran film companies like Golden Harvest and Xinyicheng don't want to be slapped in the face by Lu Yan, a fledgling young man, with a movie

"I heard that you used to be a screenwriter in Xinyi City, but you were fired by Brother Baiming?"

Lu Yan didn't expect that his question would make Wong Kar-wai blush
