"When Mr. Christian received the public script of "Infernal Affairs", he was sure that the film would not be too popular in Europe and the United States......"

"Mr. Zheng Jun, who happened to watch "Infernal Affairs", also had the idea of remaking "The Departed", and tried to write an American version of the script of "Infernal Affairs".

"Later, I don't know what happened, on the one hand, he asked me to shoot "Lamb", and on the other hand, he took the "Lamb" crew and another group of people to follow Mr. Zheng Jun to shoot "The Departed......"

"So, how do I make 'The Lamb'?"

"I can't help it!"

Since "Chainsaw", the content in Christian's mouth is the word "commercial value", he thinks that the artistic value of "Lamb" will be very high if it is filmed, but it lacks commercial value, at least this movie is unlikely to become a hit movie......

“……”

Christian has been preparing for "The Lamb" for almost a decade.

originally thought that he would be very interested in this movie, and even treated this movie as his other half of life......

No matter how strict it is, it can be understood.

But the truth is......

Since Sky gradually emerged in Hollywood with the movie "Saw", he saw the hope of Sky's rise, Christian seems to have changed his whole person, not only does he not seem to be as religious to the movie as before, but he seems to be more inclined to the "commercial" goal of pushing Sky to Hollywood's ninth largest film company.

His inflated ambition made him not want to be just a respected director, but also to move in the direction of "capital......

So half of "Lamb" was filmed, leaving Roddy with a brain-sore mess!

in the office.

Roddy was heartbroken, and there was an indescribable sense of despair in his voice.

It's really a headache to meet such a director!

"He wasn't like that before!"

"Or rather, in the first half of last year, he was not like this......"

"It wasn't right until I met Olsen!"

“……”

Luo Di looked at Zhou Yang, as if he saw a savior, at that moment, Zhou Yang felt that the assistant director Luo Di was like an abandoned little daughter-in-law, and he could feel his resentment from a few meters away.

Zhou Yang listened, did not say anything, but glanced outside the house......

Outside the house was a group of noisy actors.

The actors were so angry that they felt they had been deceived, and they were going to tear down the entire office, and they had to get Christian to come out and give them an explanation.

How could Christian possibly come out?

Even at this moment, he may not be in Los Angeles......

Zhou Yang retracted his gaze and looked at the bitter Luo Di, who also showed a wry smile.

No one knew that for no reason, this would turn out like this......

Roddy pulled out a stack of materials from The Lamb.

Looking at this thick stack of information, Zhou Yang was a little daunted.

"This is a proposal taken by Mr. Christian, and it looks like a lot, but in fact, I read the proposal very carefully these days and found that the proposal is only half ...... He doesn't seem to have the idea of photographing his other half from the beginning, or...... He didn't have time to make a plan for his other half......"

"In fact, the script of "The Lamb" has been changing, changing over and over again, each time it has a different ending, I follow him, I don't know how many endings he has made!"

"Wait, it doesn't seem to have started with Saw Horror, it seems like last year, when April won the Palme d'Or, Mr. Christian started to get weird......"

Zhou Yang flipped through the thick shooting materials of "Lamb", especially when he turned to the shooting manual, he couldn't help but be shocked by the detailed shooting content in the manual.

It is accurate to the fact that every shooting line, every light, and every sentence has a detailed explanation, for fear that others will not understand it.

However, there is only half of the plot, and that half of the plot, Christian has completely finished filming.

Zhou Yang opened the script of "Lamb" again.

is different from the script of "Lamb" that I saw at the beginning, the plot has changed, from the original crime theme to become more artistic, and the whole vaguely began to carry some stream of consciousness that Zhou Yang couldn't understand, Zhou Yang looked down, but found that the script of "Lamb" had no ending.

"The ending of the original version was denied by Mr. Christian, well, it was the ending when Mr. Zhou Yang and Mr. Christian met for the first time......" After Luo Di saw Zhou Yang's stunned expression, he began to explain seriously.

"Mr. Roddy, so ...... What the hell is Mr. Christian going to do? Zhou Yang exhaled deeply and put the script aside, only to feel that his brain was messing around.

"When Mr. Christian was filming the movie "April in the World", two months after the filming, the editing felt wrong, and the actors were brought back, and all of them were re-filmed with a completely different ending...... At that time, he was opposed by investors, including everyone in the crew, and even some filmmakers got the news and began to have doubts, if it weren't for the almost sweeping award at Cannes, the movie "April on Earth" wouldn't even make much money......" Roddy hesitated for a while, and finally replied.

"Mr. Roddy, you go and calm the emotions of these actors first, and let me be alone for a while." Zhou Yang finally shook his head after hearing that it was getting more and more noisy outside the house.

"Okay, Mr. Zhou Yang."

About a few minutes after Roddy left the office, the noise outside the house finally stopped.

Zhou Yang silently took out "Lamb" and watched it again.

There will always be a lot of inexplicable bad things in this world.

Zhou Yang encountered a lot of ......

But this time the bad thing was very speechless.

Who would have thought that Christian, such a famous director in Europe and the United States, would have such an unreliable side?

He picked up the script of "The Lamb" again and read it.

The more he read the script of "Lamb", the more Zhou Yang felt pain in his brain, and after insisting on reading it for half an hour, he barely understood what kind of concept Christian wanted to express through "Lamb".

That's human nature......

The script of "The Lamb" is actually very good, and there are many thoughtful and terrifying episodes in it, but unfortunately there is no ending.

Zhou Yang remembered the scene when he first met Christian, when in Cannes, France, Christian told him a story about "The Lamb" and showed him the script of "The Lamb".

Carefully recalling the ending of "The Lamb", Zhou Yang suddenly felt very vague, and he couldn't even think of what the specific ending was.

He came to the computer, turned on the computer, and played the first half of the plot of "The Lamb", and after watching it for a long time, he had a wry smile on his face.

"Let me continue to shoot here, how the hell am I going to shoot?"

"Is it possible that Christian himself didn't know how to shoot it, so he just asked me to pick up the mess and carry this pot?"

After watching it several times, Zhou Yang only felt that his head was too big.

"Knock knock!"

There was a knock on the door of the office......

"Come in."

"Mr. Zhou Yang, can you shoot?"

"Can't shoot ......"

"Oh!" Roddy nodded, not disappointed.

The mess left by Christian is not to mention Zhou Yang, even if some famous Hollywood directors are allowed to come over to shoot, there is no way to shoot it.

After hesitating for a long time, he raised his head and looked at Zhou Yang with an inquiring gaze, his expression became a little embarrassed: "Mr. Zhou Yang, do you want to ...... Can you take the name of "The Lamb" and help remake a movie? No matter what kind of movie you make, as long as you can get back to your roots a little...... Otherwise, the salaries of dozens of actors in the crew add up to nearly $20 million......"

"How much? How much do you say? ”

"More than $20 million...... The investors all withdrew their capital when they saw Christian's appearance, so the investment in "Lamb" in addition to Mr. Christian's own pocket, there is also a part of Sky's working capital, and of course, my money, I mortgaged the villa, car and house, and invested all in "Lamb...... If "Lamb" can't be filmed, I'll lose a lot......" Luo Di looked at Zhou Yang, and the expression on his face became even more bitter.

A year ago, he was in high spirits and joined the "Lamb" movie with millions of dollars, thinking that "The Lamb" would make him a lot of money.

A year later, he felt like a dog......

Zhou Yang's expression was stunned, and then embarrassed, and finally sat on the chair, opened the investment schedule of "Lamb" on the information, and when he saw that all the working capital belonging to Christian of Sky Company was invested in this movie, Zhou Yang's mood was speechless and complicated.

However, Christian is still moral, and did not use the investment of 20% of the shares belonging to Zhou Yang.

But when he saw Roddy's aggrieved expression, he finally couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

This guy is really unlucky......

"I'll see if I can come up with a script, if I can come up with an outline of the script, I can try it......" Zhou Yang thought for a while, and finally responded when the name of a movie came to mind.

"Good!" Luo Di nodded hurriedly, and finally a little more smile appeared on his originally bitter expression.

Then, he saw Zhou Yang bow his head, take out a blank draft of the script, and after thinking for a while, he wrote a line of names on the script.

Clarice Starling.

Bison Bill.

Hannibal Lecter......

……………………

Chinese.

On the morning of August 18.

A new round of "Infernal Affairs" box office is out.

"Superman 2" 50 million.

"Infernal Affairs" grossed 13 million.

The huge disparity seems to tell all Chinese filmmakers about the dominance of Hollywood blockbusters......

After Django watched his "Night Stalker" box office of 15 million, which was 2 million higher than "Infernal Affairs", he did not have any happy emotions in his heart, and even had a sense of panic and insecurity from the heart.

It was a kind of weakness of heart, and at the same time a kind of shame.

He picked up his phone and finally made a call.

"Once some things start, there is no going back, rest assured, there will be no problems!"

The other party was comforting him.

He bowed his head.

"Knock knock!"

The knock on the office door startled him, and he jumped out of his chair almost instantly.

"Come in!"

When he saw that the person who came was his assistant, he was inexplicably relieved.

"Director Jiang, "The Departed" is popular in the United States!"

"Huh?"

"This is news from the United States...... It is estimated that there will be news here in Huaxia soon. ”

“……”

Django took his phone, and then, he saw a series of news.

["The Departed", the American version of "Infernal Affairs" exploded at the box office in Europe and the United States! ] 】
