hung up Hong Bo's phone and looked at the time, it was already ten o'clock.

About one-third of the drama of "Undefeated in the East" is over, and it seems that even if you stay up late today, you won't be able to finish it.

Carefully save the progress, Lin Xin closed the computer, rubbed his sore arm, took a shower and went to bed.

Before going to bed, I turned on my mobile phone and swiped the news of the portal at random.

One of them is that "Fugitive Jurassic" was forced to be released.

In this era, the Internet is still in the era of forums. In terms of the quality of netizen users, it is relatively high. The news on the portal is also relatively more realistic, without distortion and malicious accusations.

But even so, the predecessor "Escape Jurassic" was unanimously boycotted by bad reviews on various website forums.

On a rating website similar to Douban, it got an ultra-low score of 2.8. Among them, more than 70% of netizens gave it one star.

It can be seen that it is really rotten.

The movie reviews are basically one-sided bad reviews, and you can't even see the posts of the water army.

Even with it, Lin Xin, the protagonist, was also scolded on the forum and received a comprehensive bad review.

In fact, in this world, with the rise of domestic science fiction movies in recent years, there have been several foreshadowing works in front of it, and China is still looking forward to "Fugitive Jurassic".

The investment of 200 million yuan is even the largest in China. finally came up with a bad movie with a score of 2.8, which naturally made many people incomprehensible.

Lin Xin relied on the memory in his mind to roughly have an understanding of the whole movie.

The benchmark is naturally an authentic dinosaur-themed sci-fi thriller, but in the end, what is presented to the audience on the screen is the main line of vulgar love.

Film is a commercial act, an act of investment.

In a way, it's an art of compromise.

The imaginative wings of the screenwriter and the story can fly high enough. However, when it comes to production, it will be constantly pressed to the ground by the effect of gravity. It's okay to fly over the ground, but if you just drop a dog and eat, it really makes people feel unreasonable.

Shoddy and bad money, give it a score of two or a few points, and then take a bite, and it will pass.

The key is that a good story theme in itself, has enough target audience, and is not bad for money to watch special effects, but in the end it makes a vulgar romance film, which is unacceptable!

Fans love and hate deeply. Therefore, the first to bear the brunt is not the director, but the predecessor who is from a traffic background and has no acting skills.

On what appears to be a well-known forum, one of the highlighted comments was a criticism of Lin Xin and the traffic he represents. is an article by a professor at a domestic film academy, with a stern tone, which naturally attracted the support of a group of netizens.

In this regard, Lin Xin didn't say anything.

He himself is also strongly opposed to the phenomenon of traffic.

As for the big mess left by the predecessor, I can only clean it up slowly by myself.

……

Nothing was said all night.

When he got up early the next morning, Lin Xin simply washed and then devoted himself to copying the script.

In the middle, Xu Han came once, saw that he was writing, and didn't bother much, went out to buy a few meals, and then left.

Lin Xin lay in front of the computer like this, crackling and typing for a whole day, feeling that the whole person had turned into an octopus and a tentacle monster, and finally finished writing the entire script at about six o'clock in the afternoon.

Call!

Relieved, he got up and stretched, then picked up the computer and walked around the room reading the script on it. After reading through it twice and correcting some mistakes, he sent the previous story synopsis and the first third of the script to Xu Han and Wei Yuan.

After all, there is still a question of copyright protection involved.

It takes at least a month to go to the Copyright Office to register the copyright, and there is no need for it now.

One-third of the script plus the outline is enough to protect Lin Xin's copyright, and it is enough for Wei Yuan and investors to understand the content of the entire script.

……

"Undefeated ...... East"

After Xu Han received Lin Xin's email, he opened it on the computer as soon as possible.

Looking at the story, it is roughly about a disciple of a sect who went down the mountain to practice, and then met a strange woman in the rivers and lakes, attracted by her appearance, and later because the other party colluded with the Japanese and killed his fellow brothers, he united with other masters of the rivers and lakes and finally killed this strange woman called Dongfang Undefeated.

Just looking at the synopsis, it's just a simple story, and the only highlight is that the villain in this martial arts story turned out to be a woman.

However, when she began to read the official script later, she found that it was not so simple.

The beginning is a somewhat cruel fight, one sword divides people into two, and one hand directly picks off people's heads, which makes Xu Han feel a little chilled.

Immediately afterwards, the protagonist Ling Hu rushed out of the scene, and wanted to go down the mountain with his brothers and sisters to run errands, and encountered the undefeated East on the way. Immediately afterwards, in the Miao people's wild store, there was a battle between the Miao people and the Japanese people.

That's the end of the script.

Looking at it as a whole, the background of the story and the details of the rivers and lakes are much better than Wei Yuan's original "Male and Female".

Moreover, the background of the entire rivers and lakes, the Huashan faction, the Sun and Moon Divine Cult, as well as the Miao people, the Japanese people, and the setting, are more novel than those novels of three heroes and five righteousness that are popular on the Internet now.

"Xinzi can really write martial arts novels?"

Xu Han was a little surprised.

She didn't expect that Lin Xin would be able to come up with such a script with such a high degree of completion.

Meanwhile.

Wei Yuan, who was continuing to interview actors in the hotel, also found a computer as soon as he received the email, downloaded it and read the script.

After reading it, there was some silence.

Judging from the synopsis of the whole script, the direction of the main line is somewhat similar to my original script, with two heroes and heroines, and then a line of revenge in the end.

It's just that the script sent by Lin Xin, looking at the first third, whether it is the setting or the dialogue, it has to go up to the next level, no, it is several levels.

As a director, he is naturally able to judge the quality of the script.

It seems that Jiaxing Entertainment should have found a professional, but I don't know which one of those awesome screenwriters it is.

"Isn't this a disease?"

Wei Yuan looked at the script in front of him and couldn't help but scold.

Some didn't understand what Jiaxing Entertainment thought.

With such a good script, at least you can make a theatrical film, right?

Make your own investment, choose a good role, find a famous director, how can you not lose money?

Just take it out and let Lin Xin come over and harm himself......

Sick isn't it?

……

Regarding the script written by Lin Xin, although several people I saw had their own thoughts, no one came out to oppose it.

In the afternoon of the same day, Lin Xin and Wei Yuan came to this son's big villa on the bank of the Nandu River.

"I've got no problem with the script here, but what about you?"

Pei Jiancong was wearing pajamas and was barefoot in the living room on the first floor.

Obviously, this is not a formal occasion for business discussions.

"No problem."

Wei Yuan glanced at Lin Xin next to him, "However, if you shoot according to the current script, you have to add money......"

"No problem, I'll invest another four million, a total of 10 million, can I shoot?"

Pei Jiancong waved his hand and said lightly.

Wei Yuan, who was next to him, stared at his pocket.

10 million ...... That's 10 million, so I voted directly...... Is your family's money made of paper?

A business is just negotiated in a few words.

When he came out of that big villa, let alone Wei Yuan, even Lin Xin himself suddenly felt a little uncertain.

In his previous life, he later became a director, even if he was already very well-known, when he pulled investment, he would still have all kinds of troubles.

And now, the investment of 10 million is just casually invested.

You know, this is an investment of 10 million at the economic level of the early millennium!

However, for Lin Xin, such an investment level is more able to have enough funds and energy to make a high-quality product, and it can help him fight a turnaround. has the foundation of the previous life Xu Lao Wei, this time it will definitely not be bad!

I believe that the obscene fat man next to him, as well as the rich smart young man, should also be looking forward to it!

……

In the living room, when Wei Yuan and Lin Xin left, Pei Jiancong made a phone call.

"Uncle Cheng, are you sure there is no problem with the script?"

"Young Master Cong, it's still good for the current one-third."

"Just good, isn't it?"

"Young Master Cong, you can ask him for a complete script, and we will evaluate it here. But I still say that whether a movie is successful or not is a short board effect, any board is prominent, and the other boards are not high, and the probability of failure is very high. ”

"Are there odds? But now it seems that there are several boards...... I heard the fat man say that Lin Xin's acting skills have improved a lot recently, and there is still investment...... Damn, if it weren't for the fact that I made four million from that previous investment, I wouldn't have taken it here to make up for the gap...... Cheng Bo, are you sure that such a project will definitely lose money now? ”

"Young Master Cong, I'm just giving you my current thoughts and judgments. The final decision-making power is yours. And you have to pay attention to the rules on the side of the general manager, you can't directly invest in projects and content that obviously lose money, and you can't deliberately complete the final 30 million quota by slowing down the pace of payment. ”

"Okay, I know, I'll think about ...... again"

On the sofa in the living room, Pei Jiancong was lying on the sofa with his head covered, full of anxiety. Under the pajamas that were lifted by Jiro's legs, a piece of snow-white skin was exposed.
