Chapter 222: Gu You's Big Plan

"Hello everyone, I'm Gu You, Yunik Gu, and it's ...... time On March 3, 204, Los Angeles time, -: 6nm. ”

On the screen of the small silver-gray P camera Canon M7001, the image shook violently, and it was vaguely clear that it was in a boy's room, black slate, bookshelf, and mouth-, with the voice, the screen turned, and a young man's face appeared, he looked at the camera, and pointed it at the mobile phone screen in his hand, and clearly captured the time.

"From now on, I'm going to do a big thing, find a suitable script and buy it, and then within 2 days, use Panavisionson film cameras and lenses to make it, and a feature film will be heard clearly, only 2 days, no more than one day, no less, let's see if we can do it."

You know, I look a bit like that Ye Wei, I just filmed the remake of "The Wedding is Coming", and now I'm doing the "Little Beauty in the Sunshine" project, but I'm not him, say it again, my name is Yunik-Gu, just call me Yunik, or swim, don't yo thank you. ”

The camera turned again, he smiled, and said, "OK, to make a movie, we need to have a film company, because a lot of things have to be done in the name of the company...... Shhhhhhh ”

p was placed on the tripod, the image became steady, and the young man dialed a number with his mobile phone, sat down on the chair in front of the desk, and quickly said:

"Harrow, Greg Soldton, is it? I'm Gu You, haha, here's the thing, I'm going to register a new production company, which is wholly owned by me, well, it's still registered in ...... No, it's registered in Nevada, name......? Thinking of Yunik Love Nina, has a duplicate name? It seems that we have discovered a hobby of Cupid. It's called 'Cliff Movie,' so be it.

Lawyer, I want you to hurry up and hurry up, every millisecond we have now is very precious, like a 100-meter race. I also want you to be prepared, a small cost exploitation of the film new project of various contracts, pay attention to good confidentiality, a qiΔ“ confidentiality good, goodbye. ”

After putting down the phone, the boy looked at the camera, gave a thumbs up, and smiled happily: "Guys, we are going to have our own film company, cool then next, we have to think about the project, a qiΔ“ project all originates from an idea, a script."

I can write scripts, but writing a good enough feature film script in a short period of time is a bit like Superman doing it, I don't have superpowers, so I'm ready to buy a suitable ready-made script, waiting to be made into a movie There are too many good scripts, they just lack opportunities, that Ye Wei also found the little beauty of the sun in this way, we can also do it"

Suddenly, at this time, a little girl's joyful cry sounded from far and near: "Brother, brother, are you back?"

"Oooh......" The boy looked out of the door with a troubled expression, "My sister Rollo is back, I'll tease her first, and I'll continue later." ”

He got up and walked to the P camera, reached out and pressed it, and with a bang, the camera was turned off.

"We want cookiesβ€”"

"Hee-hee, Cookie Monster"

As soon as Ye Wei returned to Los Angeles today, he went directly from the airport to the DreamWorks headquarters for a meeting, and only returned home in the afternoon and gave Duoduo another surprise.

The meeting finally came to an end, and both Gonzman and Smyth agreed that as long as he did what he said, there was no need to say anything more and to use film instead.

However, things are not simple, now "Ye Wei" is not just himself, but is associated with "Little Beauty of the Daylight" and the dream lineup, his words and deeds will affect the reputation and operation of the project, and the outside world is staring at countless pairs of eyes

It's not trivial to suddenly do a new project, think about it, if this new project to prove his film ability goes wrong, or it turns into a bunch of, or some kind of trouble, ruining his genius image and damaging the audience expectations of "Little Beauty of Daylight", isn't everyone a stupid hat?

Especially low-cost exploitation films, they can make a very inferior garbage at any time, yes, exploitation films have produced a lot of miracles, but they are pearls in the sea of garbage, what is the most garbage in the ocean of garbage?

Therefore, many parties solemnly and clearly said that Ye Wei can do whatever he wants in private, but he can only do it privately, he can't be exposed, and he can't be informed by the outside world of the media about any information that "Ye Wei is making a new movie", nothing is okay, and any people and things related to the new project must be kept secret, and once it is leaked, it must be stopped immediately.

There is also the issue of the distribution of this film, of course, it can't be released randomly, no matter whether they think the film is good or bad in the end, he can't take it for distribution. Because Ye Wei's real feature film debut is Little Beauty, it can only be Little Beauty of Daylight", unless he gives up "Jimmy".

In view of these circumstances, Ye Wei proposed a plan, and received a unanimous agreement.

He will use the name and identity of Gu You to do new projects, and the producer, director and other participating positions will be signed by Yunik Gu, and there will be no letter viyr spoon. Even if it is to be released in the future, it will be like this, and the publisher will be required to keep it secret and not participate in any publicity, and all of Gu You's information will not be exposed.

Terrence Malick at least has a photo on the set wearing a cowboy hat, Gu You is even more ruthless than Malick, there is no one, and even the gender is a question mark.

Everyone likes this, and as for whether to issue it, how to release it, and when it will be released, depending on the situation when the time comes, the main premise is that it has nothing to do with "Ye Wei".

All parties should pay attention to all aspects, just like the producer of the project, the Dream Chaser Alliance can't be used, but the image can't be used, and Ye Wei doesn't want to use it, because it will involve the interests of other shareholders, just register a new company, Cliff Movie bhufffihm), taken from the place where he and Nina fell in love, buffe'pabuff also has a scary meaning, which is suitable for making zuΓ² exploitation films.

In fact, Ye Wei has no idea about the release for the time being, and now he wants to prove his film ability and make Nina happy. Didn't she want Yunik to make a movie, then let's shoot, didn't she want to act in Yunik's movie, then act, just pay attention to the role of a girl when looking for a script.

Although it's like playing tickets, he knows that it's not, and he is confident that he will shoot it well, so it will always be released, released, directly rented and sold discs, overseas, everything, no matter what, he has to earn back the cost.

What is the cost budget? Exploitation films don't need a lot, save money with cheap film (film head), buy things to use up within the return period, free amateur actors and scenes, etc., those 50,000 dollars can be done, his budget is 30,000-60,000 dollars, and the family can take it, no more, no less, enough.

Whether it is released or not is a matter for the future, and the most important thing is to make a good movie as scheduled

He had to finish the new project by mid-January next year, decide whether the film or the digital, make the final preparations for the shooting, and then start shooting. During this time, he still had to manage the LM, because the preliminary preparations for the LM continued, and no business would stop.

Counting the time really given to him, it will even be less than 20 days, and he will have to take more leave, but fortunately, the winter vacation is coming.

Faced with this kind of challenge, and responding with a movie, Ye Wei was very excited, oh no, what Gu You wanted to shoot, he already had a lot of ideas.

There are many categories of exploitation films, typical ones are cannibalism, sex, kung fu, samurai, frightening, gore, ...... If you want to shoot fast, you need to concentrate on the scene, and if "Saw Horror" was not concentrated in a secret room, without running around and wasting time on moving the set, it would not have been able to shoot so fast.

Horror movies can often be very concentrated, and just in the monster's lair is a horror movie, and the reason why he had this idea is because he is very interested in thinking of horror movies

After playing with Duoduo for half an hour, Ye Wei let her play with Toto by herself, she had something to do.

Walking back to the room quickly, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon, his eyes swept to the hill of Thanksgiving gifts stacked next to the bed, the top was a beautifully packaged light blue gift box, he retracted his gaze and walked towards the tripod, suddenly turned around and walked over, and removed the gift paper with a few hands and feet, only to see that it was Cook lens......

"Like it or not, I don't know if it's good or not, but I think you'll need it......"

"Lily..."Ye Wei remembered something, couldn't help but clench the gift box, and wanted to call her to tell her "I like it very much", but shook her head suddenly, and immediately took the box of things out of the room to the attic, put them on top of the two "tombstones", looked at it a few times, and wandered a little, "I really don't understand you." ”

"Go, go, go, man, hurry up"

He stroked the ni bracelet on his right wrist with his left hand, who cares viy I'm Yonick

With a bang, the P camera on the tripod began to take pictures again.

"Hello everyone, hello Nina. ”

Ye Wei smiled at the P camera, and was going to show Nina when he took the photo, picked up the P, and walked downstairs outside the room while filming himself, "We need a movie script, what, what, what? How to find it? There are many ways, like going to the screenwriters' union, to the brokerage company, to the production company, and 6a."

"Brother, what are you shooting?" When he came to the first floor, Duoduo jumped and followed behind.

Ignoring her, Ye Wei walked to the garage and continued: "And my company will also receive some script submissions, uh no, that's the viyr spoon company, in fact, we are friends." Since he became famous, his company has been receiving a lot of scripts, but because they didn't hire a dedicated script reviewer, they were piled up there.

He doesn't own them, he just has the opportunity to buy them. Reading scripts is a chore, but there is a saying that gold is under the yellow sand, and today, we have to read those scripts carefully to see if there is gold in them. ”

With a bang, the P image was turned off.

Wow, when the footage started recording again, the time on the screen was already different, 4:4hnm shooting in a small office with all kinds of organs.

"This is Santa Monica, the headquarters of the only image company, and I will tell you quietly, this is also the headquarters of the Dream Chaser Alliance company."

Ye Wei looked around, he really hadn't been here for a while, although he didn't come much, but a headquarters was needed, and he hired an employee to be responsible for sending and receiving documents, managing materials, maintaining the official website, replying to fan letters, and other work, he is Jay Chen, a young Chinese man in his early thirties, Chen Nuo's cousin

"Hey, Jay, long time no see"

Jay is an honest man who has been a nerd all his life, just like the adult version of Chen Nuo, who also wears glasses, he greeted the camera with a smile, and he didn't know what Ye Wei was going to do, only that the boss came to read the script.

"Jay is a very good person, and so is his cousin Noah, don't play Warcraft with them, you're going to lose badly"

Ye Wei said with a smile, while walking to a desk by the window in front of him, let out an exclamation, adjusted the focus of the P lens, and focused on the large number of scripts on the table in close view, "Look, that's it...... I probably counted, there should have been more than a hundred scripts, and yes, Jay said it was 17-.

Compared to the warehouses of unions and brokerage companies, this is a bit small, but in any case, thank them for their contributions, you must know that most of them will not get any answers in this way, and it takes courage for them to submit, and how to deliver the script is really a cosmic problem

We can feel that there are moving stories behind these scripts, and there are wonderful stories in these scripts, so let's get started

Jay, you leave work early today, call a woman on a date, I'll be there. ”

"Oh yes, Weige, I'm leaving?"

"Go on a date, don't go home and play games"

After Jay left, Ye Wei pointed the P camera at himself and said with a smile: "Haha, what did I say before?" I look a little similar to VIY, I really hope his girlfriends will also recognize me...... Just kidding, Nina...... Forget it, let's cut this one. ”

Wow, wow, the video started recording again, he sat down in a chair, put P in a suitable position on the table, turned the side angle to himself, closed his eyes, and touched the script pile a few times as if drawing a lottery: "Open the door Sesame, see what ...... we get"

Pulling out a script, he looked at the cover and said: ""Love Knows Endless", the screenwriter is Paul Reichel, Paul, such a name is really inconspicuous, maybe there is another "Love Without Ending" here, if it is called, well, "I don't understand you, but I love you", maybe better, eck, cut"

"Is there something wrong with you?" knocked on his head, and immediately deleted the paragraph just now, Ye Wei put aside the script of this romance film that did not meet the choice, "Sorry brother." ”

Continue recording: "Open the Sesame Door, See What We'll Get ...... "One Goal to Win," screenwriter Gison Randal Oh so sweet. He smiled at the camera, "I guess he knows I'm on the school football team, so try my luck, sorry dude, I want a horror story." ”

One script after another was looked at the name, category, and synopsis, and then put aside in a categorical manner, and before long, all the scare scripts were singled out, 2.

"Okay, let's start the feast. ”

Ye Wei looked at the stack of scripts on the table, his heart was excited, the order from top to bottom was the interest he had just after reading the synopsis, the first script was called "Home Murderer", he took it and watched it for a while, but he shook his head and put it down, and said in disappointment:

"It had a great idea, a murderer disguised as a good man, and after getting married, he wanted to change his ways, but married life brought pain, and finally found that the best way to solve the problem was to kill, he thought, and then he went on a killing spree, and his wife's birthday party turned into a bloody night.

There's a bit of Quentin Tarantino, but the first turning point isn't good, the transition from sweet to bitter isn't convincing, and if the problem is at the second turning point, I'll still think if I can make some changes, the first turning point? Forget it, after all, we still have so many scratch tickets."

As he spoke, he took the second-ranked "Deep Pool Water Monster" and opened it, "The synopsis of it is that five young people went camping by the lake, and they found the water monster, and they wanted to catch the water monster, and the result was ...... Isn't it a bit of "Blair the Witch" feeling when the young man is looking for death? There are monsters, there are escapes, there are deaths, maybe "Anaconda Disaster"? I hope we have good luck. ”

After reading for a while, Ye Wei sighed helplessly, and put down the script again, "Too many static dialogues, too few dynamic horror scenes, this story is not exciting, sorry." ”

That's it, I read one script after another, and I still didn't feel satisfied with the sixteenth, even if I had a good idea, it was all mediocre stories.

"Good fish always swim at the bottom, the seventeenth, let's see...... Oh, I remember the synopsis, the obvious shadow of The Exorcist and Blair the Witch. ”

Ye Wei shook the script in his hand at the P camera, name: "Cotton", screenwriters: Heck Portko, Andrew Grande
