"Lin, goodbye, I've been busy with movie promotion these days, let's get together another day." Stallone waved his hand with a smile on his face.

"Okay, when the crew of "The Expendables" gathers, let's all have fun together." Lin Yuquan also smiled and waved his hand.

decided on the title of the movie "The Expendables", and agreed on a preliminary budget of $80 million for the film, Stallone did not wait for dinner with Lin Yuquan, and then said goodbye and left, preparing to wait for the release of "First Blood 4" to start the script creation and start related preparations for "The Expendables".

"What should I do next?" After Stallone drove away, outside the business building where Summit Entertainment was located, Lin Yuquan looked at the street where the traffic was shuttling and thought thoughtfully, he left Summit Entertainment with Stallone, the company's slightly high-quality scripts, he went through them all over again, and there was nothing to do if he stayed in Summit Entertainment.

"I was going to see if there was a suitable script or to find some inspiration, but it turned out." Lin Yuquan shook his head, such a result was really not good for him, and after thinking about it for a long time, even if he had always been calm and calm, he would inevitably start to get upset, although there was only a trace of it, but his mood was really messed up.

Speaking of which, this is the first time he has encountered such a situation since he stepped into the road of directing, whether it is "Huo Yuanjia" or "Red Cliff", or "Painted Skin", "Wild Story", "Hurricane Rescue", he has achieved it overnight, but this time, he has no ideas.

Of course, it's all because he wants to find something new, it's not that there are no movies to make, there are so many movies he can make. And he has tried four genres of kung fu, epic war, fantasy, and action one after another. Because of the cultivator's memory. These four genres are what he is very good at, and if he wants to have a sense of freshness, he can only choose in comedy, drama, science fiction and other fields that have little advantage compared to other directors, which naturally increases the difficulty.

Perhaps he instinctively hopes that his films can be different, and his films can beat other directors, so in the face of genres that he is not very good at, he has both an uncontrollable eagerness to try and a faint subconscious resistance, and he naturally does not want himself to fail. No director wants to fail.

This is a particularly contradictory inner struggle, he can make many films that are destined to be successful, but he doesn't want to repeat them all the time, and every aspiring director is eager to conquer more film worlds.

Lin Yuquan was very confused, and he couldn't solve the trouble of the new film plan after a busy day, so he didn't want to go home like this, but for a while, he didn't find anything that strongly attracted him to do something, and after thinking about it, he shook his head and drove slowly on the street. The gaze searched around, trying to find something that interested him.

When the eye catches a glimpse of a theater. Lin Yuquan stopped the car, saying that he hadn't been in the theater to watch a movie for a long time, anyway, there was nothing to do, and it seemed good to watch the movie.

Putting on a cap and sunglasses, Lin Yuquan walked unhurriedly to the theater, today is Friday, and several new movies have landed on the screen this week today and a few days ago. Reiner's "Bucket List" tells the story of two patients with terminal cancer, Jack Lee. Nicholson and Morgan. Freeman decided to travel the world before he died, including "The Prayer of the Stupid Thief," produced by Sony Screen Jewel, about the hapless stupid thief duo, and "The Adventures of the Vegetable Pirates," which was brought back by the original cast of the 2002 blockbuster animated film "The Adventures of the Vegetable Baby"

Of course, it is naturally impossible for every theater to show these new films, and the not too large theater in front of him is not only showing "The Prayer of the Stupid Thief" tonight, but also "I Am Legend" and "Juno", of which "The Prayer of the Stupid Thief" is newly released today, and the other "I Am Legend" and "Juno" are movies that have been shown for several weeks.

Normally, people who go to the theater to watch movies will prefer new films, but Lin Yuquan just glanced at the poster of "The Stupid Thief's Prayer", and fell on "I Am Legend" and "Juno". Smith's doomsday one-man show, one of the top ten grossing movies of the year, can be called the most amazing box office dark horse of the year.

For "I Am Legend", Lin Yuquan is very interested. Smith is a Hollywood actor he has always liked, but he is more interested in "Juno", a romantic comedy movie that costs only $8 million, can achieve such a high box office, from the director's point of view, he is eager to know what kind of incredible charm this movie has.

And there is another reason that is not a reason, he watched the three amazing pregnancy-themed movies last year, "Hostess" and "One Night Big Belly", there is no reason not to watch "Juno"!

Without much hesitation, Lin Yuquan quickly made a decision and followed into the cinema.

Hearing is false, seeing is believing, people who have not watched the movie will never really know the real situation of the movie, no stars, no gorgeous special effects, no bloody fights, no sexy and sultry goddesses, no handsome and handsome male gods "Juno" is a downright small production zuò, but small production zuò never equals shoddy production, this is a sincere, good-looking and surprisingly good movie.

Different from the usual heavy pregnancy-themed movies, the whole movie of "Juno" is carried out in a very relaxed atmosphere, even Yan Sù's adoption, Yan Sù's divorce, Yan Sù's childbirth, and Yan Sù's process of finding a boyfriend are all resolved on Juno's playful little figure walking down the path.

And the most brilliant thing is that the film creates a unique, cool Juno, yes, cool, Lin Yuquan can't find a more suitable word to describe Juno's image, she is a precocious high school wild girl, fell into early love, at the age of 16, she took the initiative to have sex with her boyfriend at the age of 16 to lead to accidental early pregnancy, faced with the dilemma of abortion or continued pregnancy, she finally decided to give birth to a child, and then gave the child to a young couple who could not have children to raise, plus her body language in the film and the lines that make people laugh.

"I don't know yet, it'...... It's not time yet, ha, okay, it's a pink plus again, oh my God, it's unreasonable", "Dude, I'm pregnant", "All in all, I'm pregnant, and your contempt for me is outrageous", "I think, I should ...... You get the ...... Strangled it in swaddling clothes to prevent it from getting worse. In the physical health class, it was said that pregnancy often leads to a child", "Hey, hello, I want to make an appointment for a quick abortion...... What the? I'm sorry, but I'm using a hamburger phone, it's a bit of a bad thing, it's just a novelty, it's not very practical" Juno, like this, it's really cool and fascinating.

It's really exciting, in the theater, Lin Yuquan is smiling, like other fans in the deep theater, laughing out loud from time to time because of Juno's coolness.

After 96 minutes of watching the movie, Lin Yuquan slowly walked out of the theater, and his irritable mood became happy, maybe "Juno" could not achieve the box office of blockbusters such as "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Spider-Man", but this is indeed a good movie, a movie he likes.

A good movie is not completely measured by the box office, Lin Yuquan suddenly became enlightened, why is he entangled in his heart, he will worry that the box office of the movie he makes is not good, the box office, the box office, the box office is high, and it is naturally good, but does he need to care so much about the box office? Doesn't what he wants to do is to bring you more and better films? It's a very simple and pure reason, but it's actually enough.

Don't care about anything else, just make your favorite movie, Lin Yuquan really made a decision, and then drove back to Beverly Hills, but when he passed by a bookstore, he suddenly stopped, anyway, he didn't have a clear idea, maybe he could buy a few novels and go back to find inspiration.

After making up his mind, he got out of the car and went straight into the bookstore, speaking of which, this is the first time he has visited a bookstore in the real sense since he came to the United States.

As soon as he entered the bookstore, Lin Yuquan quickly found his "Wild Story" in the bookstore, because of the hot sale of "Wild Wild", it was in a very conspicuous position, and "Wild Wild" was also conspicuous as the "Twilight" series, "Harry Potter", "A Song of Ice and Fire" and other popular novels.

Lin Yuquan flipped through his "Wild Story", then put it down, came to the bookshelf on the side, and searched for the novels he was interested in, like the fantasy category, he almost passed by directly, it was impossible for him to shoot other people's fantasy stories, such stories, he had the memory of a cultivator, there were too many in his mind, and he was not ready to shoot this subject at this stage.

In the fairy tale category, Lin Yuquan also passed by, he has never been interested in shooting and producing animation themes, and his eyes focus on suspense, reasoning, youth and other genre novels.

"Julie Baker religiously believes in three things: that trees are holy (especially her favorite plane tree), that the eggs from the chickens she raises in her backyard are the most hygienic, and that one day she will kiss Brysrowski."

When the introduction jumped into Lin Yuquan's eyes, his originally casual eyes suddenly froze, and a smile appeared on his face, which seemed to be very interesting! So I kept looking.

"The moment she saw Bryce's blue eyes in second grade, Julie's heart was struck by him. Unfortunately, Bryce never felt for her. Moreover, he thinks Julie is a bit weird, how can anyone see raising chickens and sitting under a tree as fun? Unexpectedly, in eighth grade, Bryce began to find Julie's unusual interest and pride in her family make her attractive. Julie, on the other hand, began to think that Bryce's pretty blue eyes might be as empty as he was, after all, how could anyone not take other people's feelings about trees and chickens seriously? ”

At this point, Lin Yuquan suddenly had an urge to continue reading.

"Hello, sir, our bookstore is closing, if you have a book to buy, please check out."

When Lin Yuquan was about to read it, the voice of a female bookstore employee sounded in his ears.

"Oh, okay." Lin Yuquan closed the book, glanced at the cover, smiled slightly, and immediately held all the other five novels that he thought were good, and walked to the cash register. (To be continued......) R1292
