Chapter 181: I want to shoot!
"First of all, a formal professor in a university has an annual salary of about 120,000 yuan." Lin Xiao looked at the information and said, "Senior professors are about between 150,000 and 180,000, but I can only give you an annual salary of 120,000." β
He closed the information and said sincerely, "In China's education circles, this is ranked according to seniority, and the price of newcomers cannot be higher than that of old people, and several of my friends even get less than 100,000 yuan, I hope you can understand." β
Nolan waved his hand, "It's okay, you know I don't care about this." Hey, if there's nothing else, then there's no need to talk about it, I'm just a name anyway. β
Lin Xiao shook his head, "Mr. Nolan, in fact, I really want you to give a lecture. β
"I started a school to sow more advanced things, and other teachers are likely to stick to the rules when they come to teach, and your differences, you are different systems, which will bring fierce collisions. And only by colliding can sparks be sparked. β
Nolan thought for a moment and nodded, "It's okay, but I must say one thing first, and that is that my teaching style is likely to be different from others." β
"Nothing, brainstorming."
Lin Xiao simply didn't read it, anyway, everything else was similar to the contract, and he also had a headache when he read it.
He started to look at the screen, typing "Da Da Da" and said, "Mr. Nolan, let's have lunch later." β
"I'm just waiting for your words!" Unexpectedly, Nolan laughed "Lin! Do you know how much I miss you? You see I've lost weight this year, I shouldn't let you into Batman! β
Lin Xiao couldn't cry or laugh, and said with a wry smile, "It's almost noon, why don't you wait for me here Mr. Nolan?" Half an hour later, we went to dinner together. β
βOKγβ
Lin Xiao checked the script intently, and once he found anything that might be used, he immediately recorded it on the computer, and within a few minutes, he forgot about Nolan's existence.
This script is so appealing that even if you watch it in fragments, it is difficult not to be attracted by it. Cao Cao's treachery, Sun Quan's boldness, and Liu Bei's face are kind, through a small soldier, the side outline of each battle, but it is extremely plump!
Such a good script made him also lift the spirit of 120%, and carefully checked every detail.
Time passed minute by minute, and before he knew it, he saw that it was already twelve o'clock.
"Oops!" Only then did he remember that Nolan was still waiting for him here, and the other party was embarrassed to speak, and now he was probably hungry.
Before he could speak, an angry shout suddenly came from behind him, "Turn the page!" β
Immediately, a large hand quickly removed his hand from the mouse, followed by a "hula", and Nolan pounced in front of the screen like a wolf.
Lin Xiao looked at Nolan in amazement, the other party's expression was very serious, and even his eyes were glowing, that was the gaze of the treasure hunter when he saw Jin Shan!
Does he know Chinese? It took a long time for Lin Xiao to react to this question.
Thirty minutes later, the housekeeper came in once, probably to ask them to eat, Lin Xiao made a "shhhhhhh
Nolan is like a statue carved out of stone, just standing in front of the computer! The chair didn't react next to him!
Forty minutes...... An hour...... After a full hour and twenty minutes, Nolan turned his head with a blank look, looked at Lin Xiao, and then looked at the computer.
He raised a hand, pointed at Lin Xiao, and then pointed at the computer, and Lin Xiao couldn't tell what it was with the expression on his face.
"Ahem...... It's just written, ready to make a budget. β
"Just written?! You said it was just written?! How long have you been writing?! Ten years, right? Nolan's voice was so loud that it seemed like it was about to shatter glass, and he grabbed Lin Xiao's hand and said, "I know...... I knew it...... Here's your riposte to Warner! This is a monument we have built together! You're here for us, aren't you? β
Seeing Hunter Xinxi, what kind of vision he had, when he saw this script, he hadn't read it for long, and he immediately understood what this could bring him.
A good script is poison to the director, no wonder he lost his temper.
βSORRYγβ Lin Xiao restrained his smile and said seriously, "Director Nolan, this drama can't be filmed by foreigners." β
"Why?" Nolan's eyes widened and he looked at Lin Xiao in disbelief, "Why can't I shoot!" β
"Because this is the history of China!" Lin Xiao Zhengse said, "Director Nolan, the gap between Eastern and Western cultures, just like I won't try to tell Forrest Gump, you can't shoot this thing." Moreover, for many scenes in the play, you can experience it, but you can't shoot the essence of it! β
After saying this, Nolan stayed in front of the computer, Lin Xiao originally thought that he was going to give up, but unexpectedly, Nolan cleared his throat and said in Chinese, which is not too fluent, "Actually, I am Chinese." β
You've got enough! Lin Xiao was almost too lazy to spit on him, so he diverted the topic, "Mr. Nolan, how do you read this script?" β
"Oh, Lin, your skill at digressing is terrible." Nolan stroked his hair, like a balloon that had been blown to the extreme, suddenly let go, looked at the screen with nostalgia from the corner of his eye, and said lightly, "I don't know, don't ask me, I don't know if I can't shoot." β
Tsk, it also makes a small temperament, although he has already experienced Nolan's strange behavior style once, Lin Xiao can't help but twitch his mouth.
"And you just now?" He couldn't help but stab the other party.
"I just sat for too long and wanted to stand." Nolan said duplicityly.
He was embarrassed to say that he was also fascinated.
At first, he was just curious, seeing that Lin Xiao was doing a budget or something, he glanced at it with curiosity, saw some swords, ropes and other things, and thought to himself, this should be a costume film.
But one layer of curiosity passed, and the next layer of curiosity was immediately revealed.
Lin Xiao is also a little well-known in Hollywood now, what kind of film does he need to budget for himself?
He just glanced at the screen, and this one fell in.
With his level of Chinese, many places are incomprehensible, but even skipping these incomprehensible places, he has to admire that the person who wrote this script is a genius.
Lin Xiao's writing speed just caught up with the viewing speed of this foreigner, and the two of them watched it tacitly one after the other, and no one felt that there was anyone around them.
Until Lin Xiao stopped turning the page, he was in a hurry, and went up to turn the page in person, he must read this script!
"Lin, let me ask one last time, you really don't plan to shoot this film for me?" Just as he was about to go out, Nolan still asked without giving up.
Lin Xiao shook his head, "This part can only be played by Chinese, and filmed by Chinese." β
"Ouch......" Nolan shook his head in frustration, "Who said that when God closes a window, he opens another?" I felt like I was living in an iron house. β
"Alright, let's go eat!" Lin Xiao smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
After eating, Nolan took his leave in a state of interest. Lin Xiao sat down in front of the phone and dialed Qin Zhong's phone.
"Help me contact the honorary professor of Sunrise, I will go to Beijing the day after tomorrow, and we will meet you."
"You're done?" Qin Zhong's voice was a little worried, "They mean very clearly...... If the script is not good, they will not put a name on our school. And these old artists have very bad tastes, don't shoot bad ones, don't shoot commercial ones, sometimes I want to make film and television companies according to their tastes, can they survive. β
"It's already written, and after I show it to them, I'll report it to the Ministry of Broadcasting and Film, and they approve that we'll start starting this huge machine right away!"
"So confident?" Qin Zhong laughed, "Also, you haven't let us down yet. Why don't I find someone to show them, and you report to the Ministry of Film? β
"No, I have to meet the people on both sides in person."
In the afternoon of the next day, Lin Xiao took off from Nanjing and landed in Beijing.
When he stepped into the dawn, the employees would consciously greet him, and some of the younger employees would even show a look of adoration.
Every successful enterprise will have a spiritual pillar, and Lin Xiao is the spiritual pillar of Dawn!
It can be said that every blockbuster film of Dawn is indispensable to the other party.
After a day's rest, the next morning, he arrived at the agreed place ahead of schedule.
When it comes to his planned film and television reform, he has to be cautious, especially in the face of a group of veteran artists, he must show respect. Otherwise, he would be embarrassed to let a group of people who were two or three times his age wait for him.
Unexpectedly, someone arrived earlier than him.
Gao Lanchun rubbed two steel balls, sat on the sofa in the room, and looked at him with a smile.
"Teacher Gao, why did you arrive so early?" Lin Xiao looked at his watch, he was an hour in advance, but he didn't expect the other party to be earlier.
Gao Lanchun nodded with a smile, smiled and asked him to sit down, looking at him like an outstanding junior, "Xiaolin, when we first cooperated, it was in 2000, and in the blink of an eye, it has been six years." β
"When you come to meet us, I'm afraid you won't be convinced, because no one who comes can pay you more, or even only a tenth of yours. But you have to call them teachers. β
"Teacher Gao, I didn't think so." Lin Xiao said sincerely, "Those who come are all old Chinese artists, and they are evergreen trees in our country, and they should be respected." β
"If only you could think like that." Gao Lanchun nodded, stopped the steel ball in his hand, and stretched out his hand, "You show me the script first, I'll see if it can be more exciting." β
A burst of heat surged in Lin Xiao's heart.
He understood, when they asked these old artists to name themselves, they made it very clear that the script was not good, and they wouldn't be able to act at all, let alone name Sunrise.
Now that others are hanging in the three major schools, why should they come to hang you in a new school? The whole of China begged for someone else's name to go to sea. Their names aren't so cheap yet.
Gao Lanchun was afraid that Lin Xiao would play a big name today, so he specially reminded him earlier than him, and was ready to help him look at the script, for fear that Lin Xiao's script would not be good enough for these old artists to criticize.
After all, Lin Xiao was under his division.
Thinking about this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but think of the night on the grassland in Ulan Butong, and Gao Lanchun also taught Lin Xiao a serious lesson when he was still "worthless". His heart was hot, and he respectfully took out a stack of scripts from his bag and handed them over.
"Please ask Mr. Gao for advice."
