Chapter 92. ["Saving the Female Soldier Rachel"]
Hollywood, USA, TOP Film Company, inside the boss's office.
Henry the elephant looked at Bill the rabbit who was following Yi Feiyang's buttocks, and his eyes looked like a big bad wolf inspecting whether the little rabbit should be stewed or boiled.
Rabbit Bill shrank a little, and kept hiding behind Yi Feiyang. After all, the shadow of the famous tree of people and the "murderous name" of Henry the elephant still make Bill the rabbit very timid.
Yi Feiyang couldn't help but kick Bill the rabbit underneath, making him stand up straight and not lie down.
"Boss, I thought about it for a while, although filming with your ass is very majestic, but I still like to go back to our own company as a cow and a horse...... Therefore, it is better to introduce me to be an assistant director, so forget it! Bill the Rabbit muttered quietly, ready to escape.
Yi Feiyang grabbed him by the placket and pulled him directly to the front.
"Mr. Henry, this is the assistant director I want to introduce to you, Mr. Bill, who is now well-known in Hollywood, and his thriller "Horror Cruise" is very good at the box office."
Rabbit Bill tried his best to make a "popular fried chicken" appearance, smiling and graceful, but he was grabbed by Yi Feiyang's neck, and it looked like a Peking duck hanging on a hook!
Henry the elephant gave Yi Feiyang a lot of face, looked at Bill the rabbit carefully, his eyes were confused, there was a trace of doubt mixed with hunger and thirst, and a trace of helplessness was mixed with doubt......
It's like an old prostitute waiting for a shot, and he has to find an old pearl woman to vent his anger.
The reason is, Mude chooses!
"Tell me, what do you think of the upcoming film?"
The questions began.
Billy the Rabbit hits a spirit, "Blockbuster." We're going to have to go the blockbuster route! ”
"Oh. For what? Henry the Elephant was very new to this argument.
Billy took a deep breath. Organize your emotions and state.
"Mr. Henry, as an old-timer in this industry and a big boss of the underground film market, you should know very well that from the 1920s to the 1950s, most erotic films were shot at 16 cm, and the length was about 10~12 minutes in a single roll, because a single roll of film was easier to steal. And it's almost all silent films. However, there may still be a lot of plot and dialogue, and the dialogue is presented in the form of subtitles. Therefore, almost all of the people who shoot this theme are some small underground film companies, with simple equipment, simple personnel, and no need for advertising, as long as there is a 16 cm camera! ”
But in 1976, the year of the explosion of American erotic films, due to the influence of the concept of freedom in the United States, many real film companies also began to make adult films. According to the Adult Film Association of America, in 1976 the revenue of erotic films was 16 percent of the total box office in the country, and more than 100 such films were produced that year......
Talking to Bill the Rabbit. Henry the elephant couldn't help but be "impressed" by the little rabbit.
I thought in my heart, and saw that he was right. Quite an expert style. No, I still have to test him, lest he just talk about it.
"So dear Mr. Bill, since you said that 1976 was the most prosperous year for this type of film, then I want to know which drama you remember is the most important?"
At this moment, it's like a teacher asking a question and answer question, if the "wonderful content" that Bill just mentioned is all memorized by rote based on the information; Then, this question of Henry the Elephant will definitely make him take a break.
Rabbit Bill was stunned for a moment, and said without hesitation: "Of course, it's Alice in Wonderland produced by BillOsco and directed by BudTownsend!" ”
"Oh yes? What do you know about the play? Henry the Elephant continued to take the school.
"Well, if I remember correctly, this play is supposed to be a rewrite of Louis Carroll's fairy tale, in which Alice is an innocent and innocent librarian who rejects her boyfriend's courtship because she is too conservative and repressed, but after a series of bizarre encounters in Wonderland, she begins to awaken to her body."
……
"Oh my God, it's a rare awesome cabaret movie in the history of American cinema! The songs and music are produced by famous artists, and the actors are all good at singing and dancing, which makes the whole film full of gorgeous dazzling and joyful and playful atmosphere......"
This time Henry the elephant was really stupid.
This rabbit is not simple, if I have twelve percent of my erotic skills, this guy is at least nine out of nine!
Well, it looks like dear Yi Feiyang didn't introduce the wrong person, this guy can be trained!
Bill the Rabbit didn't know that his impression had increased greatly, and he was about to continue spraying, but Henry the Elephant interrupted him and said, "Alright, man, you've proven yourself to be a researcher in these kinds of movies, yes, that's good!" You have a talent for this! However, the research and understanding of this knowledge does not mean that you will be able to see the future direction of shooting...... So I guess the blockbuster route you proposed earlier shouldn't be your own idea, right? ”
Henry's small eyes turned into a sharp light, making him, an elephant who originally looked fat to the point of being cute, immediately turn into a fierce lion.
Involuntarily, under such a sharp gaze, Rabbit Bill confessed, "Yes, dear Mr. Henry, nothing can escape your eyes, this is what Boss Yi taught me, yes, it was all his advice!" ”
Yi Feiyang, who has always acted as an audience or a bystander, didn't expect Rabbit Bill to be so low-level and directly sold himself.
"Ahem, I just reminded you a little, yes, a little ......"
"Hehe, dear Yi, don't be modest anymore, let's talk about it, what route should this drama take? I'm going to hear you tell me in great detail...... "Henry the Elephant seemed to be very happy when he caught a cheating child."
Seeing that he couldn't hide, Yi Feiyang "despised" the rabbit Bill, and Bill stuck out his tongue, looking innocent.
As Bill said, the development of erotic cinema has been accompanied by the emergence of DV cameras and home video cameras. The threshold for shooting is getting lower and lower. So you'll find out. Now filming this kind of scene will become more and more rough, more and more tasteless, and it will be farther away from the classics and art...... Therefore, we must change our thinking and take a route that is different from small-cost production, that is, to make the script in our hands bigger and stronger! For example, this year, the blockbuster "Saving Private Ryan", which is not a super blockbuster. TOP company can completely adapt the story, as long as it can avoid infringement, it can shoot an erotic version of "Saving the Female Soldier Rachel"! ”
"Saving the Female Soldier Rachel"?!
War films?
Erotica?!
Yi Feiyang's words made the elephant Henry scorched on the outside and tender on the inside, and made a super blockbuster into an erotic film, is this okay?!
"But dear Yi, ...... the content of this story"
"Oh, as for the content of the story, it's very simple, let's just say that this female soldier Rachel was originally a beautiful little girl, and she originally had three older brothers. All of them died on the battlefield, and my dad had fought before. But with a disability, in short, a loyal martyr, except for women, almost all men are dead...... At this time, the fascists came again, and her disabled father was re-drafted into the army, but our beautiful woman took the risk, cut her hair short, put on her military uniform, bid farewell to her hometown, took up her gun, and replaced her father in the army as a man, and became an American GI......"
There is no doubt that Yi Feiyang's joke about "serving in the army on behalf of his father" is based on the classic Chinese story "Mulan".
Henry the Elephant is not stupid, not to mention that Disney Studios happened to produce a blockbuster movie "Mulan" this year, and the box office results are still very good.
After hearing Yi Feiyang's story, Henry the Elephant immediately shouted: "Oh God, isn't this your Chinese 'Mulan'?" Yes, it must be, such a cute girl would rather go to the battlefield alone for the sake of her father! I adore her! ”
"But what about the storyline behind it? Could it be that a group of GIs went to save her, and then ...... in the trenches where the artillery was blazing, "Henry the elephant and Bill the rabbit brainstorm together, and all kinds of blood-boiling children should pour out."
"Oh my God, what a great idea! In order to repay the favor, or to survive in the war, the heroine 'rolled together' with the soldiers who came to save her...... What kind of realm is this? Bill the Rabbit praised without hesitation.
"Boss, I really admire you so much, and only you can come up with such a thrilling and glamorous plot!"
"This story of "Saving the Female Soldier Rachel" sounds really good!" Henry the Elephant clapped his hands and said, "I'm going to have people prepare this drama now, shit, I'm going to let those who laugh at me see, erotica, you can shoot like this!" ”
Yi Feiyang didn't expect that his casual idea would make the big guy in front of him so excited.
Yi Feiyang forgot that his "ghost idea" was beyond the cognition of the big guy Henry.
In previous lives, it was not uncommon for many excellent American blockbusters to be adapted into adult movies by unscrupulous businessmen, and the most memorable one was the "most expensive in history" "Ah Vanda"!
It is said that this "Ah Vanda" is a remake of the adult version of the blockbuster produced by the famous American adult film production company "Womanizer" for several months and with an investment of 1 million US dollars, known as "the most expensive adult film in history". Just after the 3D blockbuster "Avatar" swept the world, unscrupulous filmmakers immediately released the news that they wanted to remake the adult version, and in just three or four months, this "Avatar" was born.
In fact, it is not the first time that a blockbuster has been spoofed, "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Batman", which have a high status in American film history, have been so spoofed by adult film companies, among which the adult spoof version of "Pirates of the Caribbean" also won 29 awards at the American adult film festival, and was even used as a teaching material by some film professors.
It can be said that in terms of spoofing Hollywood super blockbusters and turning classics into salty and wet, there is only what you can't think of, and there is nothing they can't shoot.
But now it is 1998, many Chinese are still watching tertiary films in the video hall, many Hong Kong people are trying to shoot "Jade Futon", and Americans far away in the West have not yet shamelessly caught who to shoot whom, wantonly tampering with the transcendent realm of Hollywood blockbusters into salty wet films.
Yi Feiyang undoubtedly made a bad start...... Although his original intention was just to use Spielberg's play to produce an erotic classic.
Seeing that Henry the Elephant was about to prepare for the filming of "Saving the Female Soldier Rachel", Yi Feiyang was stunned.
"Ahem, don't be in such a hurry, take your time."
"No, I can't wait, this drama must be released at Christmas, ha, let's TOP also celebrate this splendid Christmas schedule!" Henry the elephant rubbed his fists and shook his fat with excitement. "I've even figured out the slogan, which is, 'This Christmas is a little sexy'!"
Yi Feiyang, speechless.
Seeing Yi Feiyang standing still, without the slightest excitement, Henry the Elephant couldn't help asking, "Could it be that dear Yi, you don't have confidence in the upcoming filming?" ”
yes, am I really not confident?!
Yi Feiyang asked himself.
But having said that, Yi Feiyang has not had any shooting plans in movies recently, the most important thing is that he is an idle person who likes to challenge himself and challenge various movie themes.
From the moment he promised Henry the Elephant to help TOP Company shoot a classic erotic film, Yi Feiyang's mind began to turn rapidly, and he habitually began to plan, otherwise when the other party asked him just now, Yi Feiyang would not have been able to say the script of the play "Saving the Female Soldier Rachel" in one bite.
Now, when people asked him if he had confidence, Yi Feiyang smiled.
yes, do you really have to throw off your arms and do a big job?!
Yi Feiyang asked himself inwardly.
He didn't know what to do, at this moment, he actually had an ambition in his heart, and worked hard to shoot a good erotic film, because in his previous life, he was a super fan of director Li Pressa, and he was also his classic "Lust. Loyal fans of Ring!
Who says can't make a good show?
Who says adult films can't make a good story?!
Who said that if you are a director, you have to make serious films?
Lao Tzu is not serious, what can you do to me?!
"Don't worry, since it is the movie that I Yi Feiyang promised to make, I will do it wholeheartedly! So, you don't have to doubt me, let alone my abilities! ”
"Understand, hehe, you are a master, otherwise I wouldn't have begged you for help in every possible way!" Henry the Elephant was cute, "But you are the director of this play, and shooting a movie with this theme may more or less affect your own reputation......"
Yi Feiyang certainly understands Henry the Elephant's words, if erotic films are not done well, they will become, and pornography is the biggest stain on a director.
Damn Hollywood people, it's all such a fucked up, they like to grab other people's pigtails, and then point at and scold you for being impure, not kind, too low-level and nasty......
"So, dear Yi, for the sake of your own reputation, do you want to take a pseudonym...... Like, Tom, Sam, Bloom and whatever, how? ”
"No need!" Yi Fei raised his eyebrows and said, "Since I take over the filming of this drama, I will not hide it, what an invisible person will be, the play is my choice, the road is my walk, my name Yi Feiyang will never change!" ”
Looking at Yi Feiyang's sworn appearance, Henry the Elephant suddenly appeared with a Chinese word -
Proud! (To be continued......)
