Chapter Seventy-Two: Screaming and Laughing

On Christmas Day, Ye Wei took a plane early in the morning and left Las Vegas to return to Los Angeles.

Ye Haogen, Gu Qiao and Duoduo all came to pick up the heroes, and then the whole family went to the Disney orchestra again to play and spent a happy and unforgettable Christmas.

Ye Wei also told his parents that he was going to start re-editing "The Wedding Date is Coming", and now they have no objection, knowing that his son really has this ability, anyway, "The Wedding Date is Coming" is already a mess that is difficult to clean up, they don't know how to deal with it, so they will hand it over to their son, but it must not affect their studies!

The next day, Ye Wei immediately started work, first to see what materials were available, and how to achieve his editing positioning: spoof, inferior quality, funny.

Don't think about creating a little bit of meaning, how stupid you can come, but it's not really stupid, but the feeling of "Screaming", which is so stupid that it makes people laugh.

It's just that after all, the story material is those, and it is very difficult to achieve the goal, although he doesn't want to cut out any level of classics, it's very good to have B+.

After reading the material, he quickly had a few ideas, first, the length of the film is no longer set as 9o minutes for standard feature films, it is really not suitable for such a length, in order to be compact and powerful, 7o minutes must be accepted. Among them, some ng materials will be deliberately used, and some goofs will be deliberately highlighted.

Second, add one of the most important new characters, the voice-over "God of Weddings" voiced by him, which does not show his face but accompanies the whole film.

The "God of Weddings" will make fun of the actions and stories of the characters in the film like commenting on the audio, for example, when the heroine Kana is really annoying, the "God of Weddings" will jump out and say, "Damn it, this bitch better not get married, I'm fed up!"

He will also send down some punishments, give some help, and play a role in connecting the stories. This character will be a big selling point, responsible for detonating the laughter of the script, giving a new spoof atmosphere to the inferior images, so that certain boring scenes will also become funny, and the audience will expect the reaction of the "wedding god" and then laugh.

So it's not just a recut, it's also a re-creation of the script and the image, all through the narration.

It's the only way to remake the shot without spending money or time, and it's hard, but it's good that he's full of humor, and even his big toe can say a quip: "Hey, I'm a Japanese small-chicken-chicken." ”

It costs money to do professional editing and dubbing, but ...... With Darum, they helped each other and saved a sum of money, only for this holiday! Because "The Wedding is Coming" is a commercial movie, the holiday can take advantage of loopholes, and if they are caught and held accountable by the school, they will be in trouble.

Ye Wei knew this, he wouldn't harm them, hurry up during the winter vacation, and it would almost be completed.

So, he entered the life mode of the late production zuò, getting up early every day and going in and out of USCA in the dark......

Time passed day by day, and soon, January 1st arrived, and 2oo4 years came!

In the last two months of the past 2oo3 years, I really gave birth to a lot and changed a lot, Ye Wei took a little time, quite emotional, 2oo4 years, we must continue to work hard!

"Happy New Year!" On this day, the blessings from all walks of life are naturally endless, most of his friends are still on vacation around the world, Lily watched the grand scene of the big Apple crystal ball falling in New York Times Square, took some photos and sent it to him on the Internet, which is very good.

During the New Year's holiday, Ye Wei only gave herself one day off to accompany her family, especially the grumpy Duoduo!

"You can understand it as a honeymoon on a date, and one day, you will also be with a guy like this...... Oh my God, if that guy dares to bully you, I'll kill him!"

......

On the other hand, after the Christmas holiday, Willis talked about Ye Wei's new situation with his CAA agent Richard Lovett and company partner Arnold Rifkin, as well as his own ideas, and he was a little moved.

As soon as he heard this, Lovett almost yelled at his old friend and screen superstar, "Are you crazy?!" But of course he didn't dare to do this, he just asked in surprise: "Bruce, what's going on? How can you have this idea? What is this Ye Wei's ability?"

"A young Asian man who looks like he has a bright future. Willis commented.

When Lovett watched the short film "Dance of Angels", he was silent, and Arnold Rifkin, who also watched it, was silent.

"Where's the weird genius boy......", "I can't believe it. ”

The short film is great, but it's so weird that it makes their professional experience useless and they can't make an immediate and confident judgment.

Before they could discuss anything, within a few days, Lowett received a call from Focus Films, and after some discussion, he conveyed the company's meaning to Willis.

Focus is eager to co-produce "Little Sunshine Beauty" with Cheyenne Enterprises, the hot potato before, now it has really become a golden baby, once there is a superstar, everything is different.

If Willis is willing to star, the high-level bigwigs are willing to raise the budget for this project, as long as they have money, they can create an excellent online lineup, not to mention that the script may be good or bad, even if it is bad, it can be filmed well, as long as it is not filmed into a pile of garbage, there will be money to be made.

Therefore, if Willis starred, the salary and dividends are easy to say, and the focus is confident to bring the film to the Oscar stage!

"Bruce, they're planning to bring in first-line producers and directors to produce it, and as long as you star in it, that can be written into the contract......!

I don't deny that Ye Wei has a certain ability, and he may be one of the best in his age. But no matter what kind of genius he is, if he directs it, it will be his first time directing a feature film, and he may be able to shoot well, but it will never reach the height of the Oscar level!

But Stephen Dudley can, Sam Mendes can, Steven Soderbergh can!

The script of "Little Sunshine Beauty" really has the potential to impact the awards, this is a chance for you to be nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor! ...... even win an award? Bruce, the closest we have come to being nominated is "The Sixth Sense", but unfortunately those people in the academy just think you are not qualified enough, and now that the opportunity has come again, will you let it run away?

Don't forget my CAA resources, if it is directed by a big director, I can immediately assemble a wonderful cast, if it is directed by Ye Wei...... It's up to you. ”

Lovett's meaning is very clear, the biggest obstacle now is not anyone, it is Ye Wei, he is a damn stumbling block! He refuses to hand over the script for a day, and those beautiful blueprints will always be blueprints......

And Arnold Rifkin, for his part:

"Weiduo Image and Dream Chasing Alliance are just layman film companies, if we cooperate, we can not expect the other party to have any production capabilities, but ...... In terms of ability, the other party is zero, we are also zero, and the focus film is not zero, and they also have the ability to lobby for public relations during the awards season.

You should know that the same "Little Sunshine Beauty", the same 12o minutes, focus movie line, it can get multiple Oscar nominations, if we can, it is difficult to ...... So in any case, this project needs to be focused on. ”

After listening to their opinions, Willis was very silent, not knowing what to think, and finally made a decision: "We should give Ye Wei a meeting and give him a chance to convince us." ”

A meeting? Lowett didn't value it, but he didn't object to it, and Rifkin was interested, and nodded in agreement.

On the evening of January 2nd, so suddenly, Ye Wei received a call from Willis at home, early tomorrow morning, go to the corporate headquarters of Cheyenne and have a meeting!

The 3rd is a Saturday, but the film industry is like this, you can have a meeting if you want, and there is no fixed holiday to speak of. You must know that big people can be holidays at any time, and they can be jobs at any time, and it is not easy to gather a few big people for a meeting.

"Boy, you'd better get ready for this meeting, and we'll discuss the feasibility of working together, especially with you producing and directing it. I'm very interested in starring in "Little Sunshine Beauty", but we still have too many doubts, this is your chance, if you have any ability, just seize it. ”

"Yes, sir, yes, I'll be on time!"

"Focus Movies will also send people to participate, if this project is really made, we need their ability to act, I heard that you have a bit of a grudge, are you okay?"

"It's nothing, I know the big picture matters, I'm okay with them, hehe. ”

"Well, see you tomorrow morning. ”

After putting down the phone for a long time, Ye Wei was still excited, although he was very unhappy with the participation in the focus, but who cares, as long as he can produce and direct, the strong channel of the focus will only make him!

Soon, the tense night passed, and the early morning of the 3rd arrived.

Under the expectation and blessing of his family and friends, Ye Wei took the prepared box of things and went to Santa Monica alone, the target, Cheyenne corporate headquarters!
