September 1st, after the rain.

In the deep courtyard of the ancient mansion of the Film Bureau, Lou Ye and Nai An were waiting stiffly in a room with dampness.

"Click!"

The footsteps were near, and Deputy Director Zhang pushed the door in with a piece of paper, and the two vermilion lacquered wooden doors creaked and shook a few times. He sat down around the desk before he spoke, "Old building! We're all acquaintances, and it's hard for me to do it today, so you have to understand us. ”

"We accept the organization's decision." Lou Ye's tone did not change in the slightest.

"Well, I'll start then."

The deputy bureau sighed, put on his glasses, held the document and said: "Notice on the Punishment of Lou Ye's Illegal Participation", on May 18, 2006, director Lou Ye participated in the competition unit of the Cannes Film Festival in France without passing the film review. This move violates Article 24 of the "Film Management Regulations": Films that have not been reviewed and approved by the film censorship body of the administrative department of radio, film and television shall not be distributed, screened, imported, or exported. In accordance with the relevant regulations, the Film Bureau's decision to prohibit Lou Ye from engaging in relevant film business for five years will take effect immediately. 1 September 2006. ”

“……”

Nai An's appearance was very calm, Lou Ye's body trembled, he thought of a certain consequence, but he didn't expect it to be so serious, and subconsciously asked, "Then what am I eating?" ”

The deputy bureau was also stunned, and then smiled: "Old Lou, we know that you can't go without food." ”

This ban means that he will not be able to find any mainland investment in five years, but the studio will have to run, the director will have to film, and his family will have to support......

After walking out of the door, Lou Ye didn't remember much, but he must have had a drink.

……

Jenny and Ann finally understand the sexuality of their new neighbor, and he tries his best to explain it. The second is that the black Allen never appeared again.

The girls are full of curiosity about him, as long as they don't go to class, they go to other people's houses properly, and they call it a beautiful name, rubbing rice. And after a period of time, the two girls were refreshed again and again. It seems that there is nothing that the person can't do except have children: housework, cooking, tea ceremony, playing chess, calligraphy, shoe repair, oh yes, he can act.

This surprised the girls. Although I haven't seen that person's work, I will search for it on the Internet, good guy! He is not just an actor, he is also a big one.

"Jane, that Robert is so annoying, I'm dying of headaches!"

In the evening, Ann got out of class and was going home with his girlfriend.

"He's pestering you again?"

Jenny opened the door to the apartment. Qi said: "Didn't you confess to him?" ”

"He doesn't believe it's you that I like, he just thinks it's an excuse." Ann was depressed.

"Haha. Then I'll go tell him, don't worry, baby. ”

The two girls lingered on the jogging platform for a few minutes, and then continued upstairs, and when they reached the third floor, they suddenly joined together.

"Is there a sound?" Ann wasn't so sure.

Jenny put her ear to the neighbor's door and whispered, "It looks like a quarrel." ”

Before Ann proposed. The girl had already knocked on the door, and after a while, Chu Qing poked at the door and said with a smile: "Hey, you guys are out of class?" ”

“YEAH。 I heard a loud voice inside, what happened? ”

"Oh, we're talking about the script."

Jenny's eyes lit up and she said, "Can we take a look, I promise it won't affect you." ”

"Okay, please come in."

After Alex agreed to someone's conditions, he felt that he had been pitted, because there were not three places to be modified, but more than a dozen:

For example, Wilson's white mother, who is now an adoptive mother, has solved the problem of his nationality by the way.

For example, if the plot of masturbation is deleted, the conflict points caused later should also be deleted, and a new contradiction will be rewritten.

For example, Vivian didn't say anything about her pregnancy until the next day, and now she has to be in advance, not like the thousand-year-old stalk of "Let's be worse than anyone" like "Notting Hill", but inadvertently mentioned "Please, I'm just a poor girl who found out that she was pregnant and found out that her boyfriend was splitting her legs, oh, this thing is so bad!" ”

A good script has to be hard, so the poor little director was ravaged by someone over and over again, and the other party's rich experience and keen sense of film made him unable to refute and faintly enjoyed it.

Of course, he won't admit it himself, it's all about the money! Half a million dollars is not a small amount, enough to replace a better machine and hire a reliable photographer and gaffer.

Long live the movie!

That's all Alex can shout......

And at this moment, he is poking on the floor of the living room to solve the last question with the guy: what kind of way do the heroes and heroines kiss?

"I think it's supposed to be in the car, the road is jammed, and there are shiny trees and balloons next to it."

"Why in the car?" Chu Qing was puzzled.

"Because the enclosed space is romantic and you can hear the radio."

"Countdown, you say?"

"Yes, or what else?"

Chu Qing turned his head and asked, "You used to listen to the countdown while preparing to kiss?" ”

“YEAH！”

"Isn't that weird?"

The two girls answered.

"Uh, you guys don't get bored, oh no, I mean, it looks very formal."

“……”

You look at me, and I look at you, and I don't know how to answer. Kissing on Chinese New Year's Eve is an American tradition, and no one asks why, and no one feels wrong.

"Chu, what do you want to say?" Alex frowned.

"SORRY, I DON'T MEAN ANYTHING SARCASTIC, I WANT TO SAY WILSON AND ANN ......"

He stamped in the room and exclaimed, "At the beginning of the story, they do look for a midnight kiss in order to give themselves some comfort. But at the end of the day, they don't care if they have a midnight kiss or not, they just want to kiss each other. So don't limit the occasion, the environment, the time, just have that kiss! ”

“……”

The three of them were silent again, and after a while, Alex said, "Sounds very good, can you make it more vivid?" ”

"In this way, we act...... Oh forget it, Ann, can you do me a favor? ”

He disliked the raunchy little director, ignored the other party's depression, and beckoned the girl to come over.

"What am I going to do?" She asked.

"I'm Wilson, you're Vivian, we're walking down the street, maybe midnight has passed, maybe midnight hasn't come yet, but we need an excuse to express our emotions, can you understand?"

“YEAH！” She nodded.

"OK, now we're face to face, you count down from 5 and take a step back with every word counted."

"Me, shall we begin?" The girl was a little nervous.

"Relax and relax, watch my gestures, get ready, snap!"

As soon as his palms closed, Ann took a small step back and said, "Five." ”

"Don't stiffen your hands, just make some movements!"

“Four。”

"Look at me and smile, don't blink!"

“Three。”

"Yes, that's it!"

“Two。”

"Stop!"

Chu Qing suddenly shouted: "Where are you standing, blink your eyes, and then pounce on me...... Wait, wait, I don't have to really pounce, I'm going to talk about this episode...... Alex, that's probably what it means, what do you think? ”

"Seriously!"

The buddy looked frustrated and said helplessly: "Haven't you really thought about changing careers, such as screenwriters or directors?" ”

"Ha, I'm self-aware, I can't write a complete story, at most I can comment on the details. If you're in favor of it, then we'll use the idea we just had, but you'll want to flesh it out. ”

He was busy for a long time before he sat down to rest. Ann also returned to Jenny's side, and her always pale face was actually flushed slightly.

"Hey, baby!" Jenny was a little jealous.

"SORRY, I'M JUST A LITTLE EXCITED."

……

Chu Qing worked hard for half a month, and finally completed all the formalities, the initial funds of 370,000 US dollars have been put in place, and the remaining 250,000 yuan is ready to be used, and the friend who co-founded the company with Alex served as the producer.

There are four main characters in the film, Wilson, Vivian, Jacob and his Asian girlfriend. Alex is still recruiting people on the website, and now that he has some money, he seems to have enough confidence, and he has selected more than two dozen candidates from them to prepare for interviews.

The list is particularly brilliant, what Natalie Portman, Anne Hathaway, Scarlett Johansson, Jessica Alba, Emma Watson, Rachel McAdams, Amanda Seyfried, Keira Knightley......

I can't afford all of this! (To be continued......)
