Chapter 509: Finalization of the Movie Script and Candidates for the Protagonist (Subscription Requested!) )
The wheels are rolling, the engines are roaring, and they are speeding away.
Xiaoqiang put the steering wheel, stepped on the accelerator, drove the car, and sped over the criss-crossed roads of the city, making a clanging sound when pressing over the manhole cover.
This feeling is a little strange for him.
Before, there was only a boundless yin aura in his world, full of cold and darkness, and if he wanted to improve his cultivation, he also needed to absorb the blood of others, so he couldn't avoid killing.
However, after he broke through the Flying Zombie Realm and successfully reached the level of the Drought Fish, after he opened his spiritual wisdom, he realized how ridiculous he was before.
After becoming a zombie, Xiaoqiang has always been in the company of darkness, falling into cold and bloodthirsty, and repeating the cycle, although it is said that zombies are jumping out of the Three Realms and not within the Five Elements, but this kind of unconscious immortality has also become a painful torture.
Now, he drives the car, through the mighty traffic, the hustle and bustle of the city, but full of life.
Through the cracks in the window, the tip of Xiaoqiang's nose moved, and he could smell the fragrance of the earth after the rain, which is the richness and tolerance of the "soil", and the color of the soil is earthy yellow.
On the People's Square, there are constantly water columns spewing out from the spring, splashing open, the moisture is diffused in the air, under the refraction of the sun, these water splashes are also blooming with crystal fine silver light, which is the flow of "water", showing a transparent bright silver.
In the bustling area of the city center, many people come and go, rubbing shoulders, laughing and talking, full of vigorous and vigorous breath of life, this is the existence of "qi", and qi is somewhat special compared to other elements, because he is colorless, formless and tasteless, but it is a real existence, a symbol of life.
In the summer season, the sun in the sky, like a golden wheel, spares no effort to pour its own light and heat into the city, the temperature rises, the heat effect is inducted, the whole city is like a furnace, people feel extremely hot and restless, and this is the "fire" of irritability, bright and unrestrained red is its symbol.
"It turns out that this is the embodiment of the four elements." After Xiaoqiang reached the existence of these elements, he couldn't help but sigh.
When Li Xiao saw Xiao Qiang's deep emotion, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Earth, water, air, and fire, these four attributes are not only the materials used in alchemy, but also the main elements of the world, in the future, you will have more insights about them!" ”
Before this, Xiaoqiang fell into darkness, and these elements were untouchable at all, but now, these elements are really like breathing and drinking, closely related to him, and he is truly integrated into this world at this time.
Xiao Qiang smelled the heaviness and fragrance of the soil, saw the wetness and selflessness of the water, experienced the vigor and vigor of the breath, and felt the fury and heat of the fire system vitality around him.
The corners of Xiao Qiang's stiff mouth, which had not changed for a hundred years, finally lifted a smile, and his cloudy and dim pupils also showed a hint of clarity at this moment.
……
……
Ten minutes later, Xiaoqiang drove to the agreed place, parked the car, and walked down from the car with Li Xiao.
Just as they were about to walk into the tea restaurant in front of them, there was a sudden exclamation from the bus stop not far away, from far to near.
"Thief, don't run...... Someone stole my wallet, catch the thief! ”
Li Xiao followed the voice and looked over, his brows furrowed, only to see a man with inverted triangular eyes, holding a black wallet under his arm, running quickly from the bus stop in this direction, and behind him, there was a white-collar woman in a black uniform suit and red high heels, desperately chasing.
It's just that because the woman is wearing high heels and is inconvenient to move, she is getting farther and farther away from the thief, and she is about to be unable to catch up.
"Give me back my wallet! There are ID cards and bank cards in it, which are my savings for more than ten years. In a hurry, the white-collar woman fell to the ground, watching the thief sweep away his savings for more than ten years and flee, and couldn't help crying bitterly.
"Hmph, why should I return the money I stole by my ability!" In the process of escaping, the thief did not forget to turn around, glared at the white-collar woman fiercely, and sneered.
When the thief turned his head again, he found that a tall and strong man in a black suit with sunglasses appeared at some point, completely blocking his way.
The thief had just stolen the money, and when he saw a powerful man blocking the front, he suddenly felt weak and shouted to Xiaoqiang: "Go away, don't get in my way." ”
The thief leaned forward and shook his body, ready to knock Xiaoqiang aside.
However, Xiao Qiang's legs were like steel stuck in the ground, and he naturally did not move, but Xiao Qiang was bounced away and staggered back a few steps.
Seeing that more and more people were surrounding him, it seemed that he wanted to act bravely, the thief's heart became even more panicked, his face showed a hideous face, and he shouted at Xiaoqiang: "Dare to stand in my way, I think you don't want to live anymore, look for death!" ”
The thief was vicious, his pupils shrank suddenly, his heart sank, and he quickly took out a thin and sharp folding knife from his arms, held it with his backhand, and stabbed it fiercely at Xiao Qiang's upper body at an angle that he was most sure of.
However, the folding knife did not pierce Xiaoqiang's body as the thief expected.
On the contrary, the folding knife that he had polished extremely sharply was like a stab on a steel plate, and its tip was against Xiao Qiang's body, not an inch in, and the blade was pressed into a twisted arc.
"Ding."
In the thief's extremely stunned eyes, the tip of the folding knife was directly broken and fell to the ground, and then looked at Xiaoqiang's body, there was no wound, and it was unscathed!
The thief had a constipated expression, his eyes glanced up, but he saw a pair of the most cold and terrifying, murderous eyes he had ever seen, the thief fell to the ground in fright, and even the leather bag tightly held under his armpits was thrown aside, his eyes were stunned with fright, his body trembled involuntarily, and the crotch of his pants was soaked with a fishy liquid.
The white-collar woman's purse was finally recovered, and the thief was caught by other brave passers-by and taken to the police station.
The white-collar woman held the lost wallet and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Thank you so much, good Samaritan...... Hey, what about people? When the white-collar woman came back to her senses, raised her head, and was about to thank her, she found that the person who had helped her just now was gone.
……
……
At this time, Xiao Qiang, who had just seen the righteousness and bravery, had already appeared at the door of a tea restaurant with Li Xiao, pushed open the revolving door, and the two walked in.
It's still morning, and there is still a period of time before the meal, so there are not many customers in the tea restaurant, Li Xiao's eyes swept lightly in the store, and he found Xu Yuan sitting in that quiet corner.
Li Xiao...... No, it should be called Mr. Li, since the movie theater parted that day, we haven't seen each other for a long time. ”
Seeing Li Xiao coming, Xu Yuan hurriedly got up and shook hands with Li Xiao, but his rolling eyes inadvertently fell on the supercar parked at the door.
Although Xu Yuan does not have rich assets, he has been in the entertainment industry for many years, and he has dealt with some celebrities and rich people, and his knowledge is naturally not low, and he recognized the supercar outside at a glance, which is worth as much as five million.
When he saw this scene, Xu Yuan's eyebrows trembled slightly, and even his breathing was a little short, with an unbelievable look in his eyes.
You must know that Li Xiao was just a trick in the film and television city, but he didn't expect that after just one year, Li Xiao turned out to be such a wealthy local tyrant, and the shock in his heart was also overflowing.
Xu Yuan's gaze passed through Li Xiao's ears again, and saw the bodyguard behind him, the bodyguard looked grim, full of alertness, and his burly body was like an iron tower, standing in the aisle of the tea restaurant, which was also eye-catching.
Xu Yuan, who has been in the film and television industry for many years, has seen a lot of special actors in martial arts, they all have a kind of martial arts momentum because of their long-term martial arts practice, but there has never been a bodyguard in front of him, just a simple look can give people the power of oppression, even Xu Yuan was glanced at by Xiaoqiang, and he felt a little nervous and breathless, with such a bodyguard, just one look can deter Xiao Xiao.
It is conceivable that if you want to hire such a top bodyguard, the price is definitely not expensive.
At this time, he was also more sure that Li Xiao asked him to cooperate in making a movie, but it was not a joke, although I don't know what Li Xiao has experienced in this year, but Xu Yuan can be sure that Li Xiao at this time does have strong capital to make movies.
Li Xiao nodded at Xu Yuan, said hello, pulled out a chair, and sat down opposite Xu Yuan.
Xu Yuan asked the waiter to serve two cups of coffee and some special delicate desserts.
"Mr. Li, I didn't expect that in a short period of time, your changes are really big." Xu Yuan said in amazement.
At the beginning, Xu Yuan just felt that the role played by Li Xiao was vivid, even if he played a supporting role, he also stole the limelight of the protagonist, which was quite noisy, so he also thought that Li Xiao was extremely talented in acting, but he didn't think that the other party not only had acting talent, but also could be so successful in business!
He thought that although he has been directing film and television for more than ten years, he is still high or low, and he has not won any major film awards.
Li Xiao waved his hand and said, "Where, it's just a small company." ”
The corners of Xu Yuan's mouth twitched, and he suddenly felt that the whole person was about to be bad.
Drive a five-million-dollar supercar, hire a top bodyguard who is worth a lot of money, and this is just a small company? Isn't the studio you opened by yourself a floating cloud, nothing? Xu Yuan suddenly felt that he had really lived to a dog in the past few decades.
Li Xiao drank some coffee, and after chatting with Xu Yuanyou, he returned to the topic and said, "Director Xu, how are you preparing for that movie?" ”
Xu Yuan calmed down his surprised mood, took out a stack of printed and sorted scripts from the handbag on the sofa, handed it to Li Xiao and said: "Regarding the movie, I have already screened some scripts to choose from according to your requirements, you can take a look at which script you like." ”
Li Xiao took the script and flipped through it in his hand.
These scripts were carefully selected by Xu Yuan, including horror films, science fiction films, and comedies, which contain a lot of themes and genres for Li Xiaolai to choose.
After Li Xiao initially read these scripts, he re-examined them.
He stretched out his hand and rubbed it on his chin, and after thinking about it, he finally pulled out a copy of the scripts, placed it on the table, and pointed with his hand: "What do you think of this script?" ”
Although Li Xiao had already made a decision in his heart, he was still going to ask the other party's opinion.
"It's Dragon Blade." Xu Yuan saw that there were two big characters written on the title page of the script, his eyes lit up, and he said: "This script is the theme of action military, although it is rare to say that there are few action military movies on the screen, but this is one of my favorite scripts." ”
"The story told by "Dragon Blade" is very simple, a trading ship was hijacked by an overseas terrorist ~ terrorist organization, and a special force called Dragon Blade urgently accepted the order issued by his superiors, broke through many dangers and obstacles, fought wits and courage with the terrorist ~ terrorist organization, and finally completed the rescue mission."
"Although the synopsis of this story is simple, the whole plot is interconnected and exciting, and there are many battle scenes that are very suitable for holographic image technology, and it is actively promoting the main theme."
Among them, the protagonist named Wang Jian, he is a new soldier who interprets the image of the "bad" boy next door, but at the same time he is also a professional top soldier, with one enemy and one hundred, flexible mind, iron-blooded spirit, the dragon blade out of the sheath, to defend the country! Such a vivid character image is also easy to resonate with people, and I once wanted to put this story on the screen, but I was forced to run aground because of investment problems. ”
Li Xiao said with a smile: "In fact, there are risks in making any movie, I believe that as long as this movie is shot wholeheartedly, created with all my heart, and can cater to the audience's tastes while promoting the main theme, it will be a good movie, okay, I decided on this one!" ”
In the end, Li Xiao made a decision.
"Well, I'm going to do my best to make this movie!" Xu Yuan clenched his fists, his face was excited, and even his breathing became a little short.
He has long wanted to make this movie script into a movie, but many investors are worried about the box office, so they are stranded, and at this time, because of Li Xiao, he finally has the opportunity to realize his dream.
"The protagonist is the core and key to the whole movie, and character creation is very important, so the leading actor must be well checked." Li Xiao knocked on the name of the protagonist on the script, and said earnestly.
"I've found a good fit." Xu Yuan said with a smile.
"Oh, who is it?" Li Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.
"That's him!" Xu Yuan pointed at Xiao Qiang behind Li Xiao, unable to suppress his excitement, and said loudly excitedly.
