Chapter 486: Want to Make a Movie?
"The Legend of Sword and Fairy", He Yun once had an idea, but in the end, he didn't "learn from it", but he didn't expect that his fifth sister would have such an idea.
Although He Yun doesn't know why she wants to create, it doesn't matter anymore, no matter what she thinks, He Yun will support it.
So, he smiled indifferently, looked at his fifth sister He Ying and said, "Girl, what about me, I support you spiritually, but I won't help you create, so don't give me any hope!" ”
His purpose in doing this is actually very simple, that is, to cultivate her creative ability.
Previously, he also cultivated Li Yan in this way.
This time, of course, will be no exception.
"Fourth brother, I understand, I will create seriously, but if ...... I mean, if it's done, can you give me a look and some comments? ”
"Absolutely!" He Yun immediately nodded, and then said.
"That's good! That's good! After He Ying heard He Yun's words, he was very happy and couldn't help but respond.
"That's it! All right! Fourth, you should be fine now! I'm going to cook first, and the fifth and sixth finally come to you, and you three brothers and sisters have a good chat. ”
After saying this, her mother Gong Yue turned around and went out.
And Gao Yunyan also hugged the child and left after him, leaving He Yun alone.
But after the remaining three people, the atmosphere became awkward.
Especially the sixth sister He Xiaolian, she couldn't help but smile, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Fourth brother, I'll go outside for a walk!" ”
As she spoke, she walked outside, and at this time, He Yun suddenly remembered something and immediately stopped her: "Wait a minute!" I'm not done yet. ”
"Fourth brother, what else do you have to do!"
"Don't go far, in the evening, the fourth brother will take you to watch a movie!"
"Watching a movie?"
As soon as she heard that she wanted to watch a movie, the sixth sister He Xiaolian's eyes immediately lit up: "Fourth brother, should we really go to the movie?" I haven't seen a movie in a movie theater since I'm so old, but I watched black and white movies when I was a kid, and I've heard that movies in movie theaters are all in color, right? ”
"Hmm...... It's really colorful! Alright, I'll take you there! So don't go far. He Yun nodded and admonished again.
"Okay! Fourth brother! I'm not going to run far! ”
With that, He Xiaolian walked away happily.
…………
In the evening, after dinner, He Yun led the two girls out of the door.
This time, instead of driving, he walked.
After all, the cinema is not far from the courtyard, just a few steps away.
No, about a quarter of an hour later, the three of them came to the cinema.
After He Yun bought three tickets, he led the two into the cinema.
For most of the movies released in 1993, He Yun has no impression, except for the phenomenal movie "Farewell My Concubine".
And it was this movie that He Yun took these two girls to watch today.
He thought that these two girls should not like to look at it.
After all, what "Farewell My Concubine" says is a bit profound, and ordinary people really can't understand deeper things.
But in the end, he found that the two girls watched it with relish.
It wasn't until after the movie that He Yun led the two of them out that they were all holding hands and chatting non-stop.
"Ahem...... Is this movie really so good? He Yun interjected and asked the two.
"Beautiful! Pretty! It's so pretty! Without waiting for He Ying to speak, He Xiaolian immediately responded.
"So what do you think is beautiful? Is it the plot, or is it the ......"
"Uh...... This one...... All in all, it's good-looking! Color movies are just good-looking, much better than black and white movies! He Xiaolian was stunned, but she said.
Obviously, she didn't judge whether this refusal was good-looking based on the plot or other factors, but based on whether it was colorful.
In other words, she actually thinks it looks good because it is the first time she has watched a color movie.
Thinking of this, He Yun couldn't cry or laugh a little.
But at this time, He Ying followed and said: "Fourth brother, I think the story told in this movie conveys the helplessness and indignation of the world in that era, especially ......"
Well, compared with her sixth sister He Xiaolian, her fifth sister He Ying is obviously much more mature, and she deserves to be an editor, and she is very professional in her storytelling of movies.
If it is put into the future, this is a proper film critic.
"Hmm...... Yingzi is right! It is precisely this aspect that the director of this film really wanted to express. He Yun nodded and said to He Ying.
Then, he smiled slightly and said to the two, "Okay! Let's go back! It's not too early. ”
"Fourth brother! I am hungry! At this moment, He Xiaolian covered her stomach and showed a pleading expression to He Yun.
"Hungry? It's only nine o'clock in the evening, and it's only been more than two hours since dinner, right? Why are you hungry? ”
"Wait...... I see, you haven't eaten enough at night, have you? Just ate a bowl of rice? ”
"Half a bowl!" He Xiaolian looked embarrassed and replied.
In the evening, He Xiaolian was in a hurry to go to the cinema, so she didn't eat much, no, she was hungry just after watching the movie.
He Yun pondered for a moment, looked left and right, and immediately said: "There are no shops open at night, it's better like this, after you go back, how about the fourth brother give you instant noodles to eat?" ”
"Instant noodles? Is it instant noodles? ”
"Yes!"
"It's wonderful! I ate it when I was in the country, and it was delicious! I'm going to eat three packs! ”
"Three packs? You're not afraid to hold on! ”
"Fourth brother!"
"No, it's not good for your health to eat so much at night!"
…………
Although He Yun strongly objected, the two girls still did not resist the temptation of instant noodles.
In the end, He Xiaolian ate three packets, and He Yingye ate two packets.
As for He Yun, he also ate two packets with him.
Not to mention, this instant noodle is really fragrant now.
He also bought some before, and was going to give it a try, but he didn't expect to be eaten up by these two girls in one go.
The next day, the weather was sunny and breezy.
He Yun didn't have classes today, so he didn't go to Kyoto Normal University, but accompanied Gao Yunyan to take care of the children.
In the afternoon, after lunch, he went into the study, turned on the computer, and continued to create "Bad People".
At about three o'clock, Wang Ruoyun called and asked him to go.
He Yun had no choice but to leave the study and go straight to another set of courtyards.
When he came to Wang Ruoyun, He Yun found that the atmosphere was a little solemn.
After He Yun pushed the door in, he looked at Wang Ruoyun and asked, "What's the matter?" What's wrong? ”
"He Yun, you're here!" Wang Ruoyun stood up, he pulled He Yun, walked out of the studio, and came outside.
"Just now, Jade Animation Design Company called and said that they will no longer provide computer animation technology support, for which they are willing to pay 100,000 yuan in liquidated damages."
"What? This...... Why? Did they take on a better animation project? He Yun asked in a low voice with a puzzled face.
"It's estimated to be about the same, otherwise they won't choose to default, after all, 100,000 is not a small amount, it is estimated that it is a large company in the country of Japan or the United States, such as Disney and the like." Wang Ruoyun smiled bitterly and said to He Yun.
"So what now? "The Origin of the White Snake" has now entered the original art design stage, right? He Yun looked at Wang Ruoyun and asked.
"I can only find another company to replace it, and there is no suitable company ...... at present"
"What about the Momiji animation? Have you looked for them? ”
"I looked for it, but they said that they had a project at hand now, so they didn't have time to cooperate with us." Wang Ruoyun shook his head and said.
"What about Mr. Zhou...... there?" He Yun said again.
"This ...... I haven't been notified yet! ”
"Then why don't you look for her first! Maybe she has a way" He Yun hesitated for a moment and said.
"That's fine! There's no other way to do it now. Wang Ruoyun sighed and said.
Indeed, the only way to do this is to ask for help.
…………
Zhou Fengying soon got the news.
She hesitated, then agreed to help.
However, she said she could only do her best.
In this regard, He Yun and Wang Ruoyun couldn't say anything, so they could only continue to design the original painting while waiting for her news.
…………
November.
Autumn is in full swing.
Railway station.
After He Yun saw He Xiaolian away, he returned to the courtyard.
The first 20,000 words of "Bad People" have been created.
Although this only completed one-third of the main plot, Wang Yongsheng couldn't wait, and after discussing with He Yun, he returned to the "Picture Book King" magazine with a manuscript of 20,000 words, and began to gather comic book writers to create this comic.
At this time, He Yun chatted with Zhang Lai about the filming process of the TV series "Qin Shi Mingyue".
"Mr. He, that's probably it, what do you think ......?"
"You mean, now that the TV show is halfway through? How could it be so fast? He Yun looked surprised.
He had been prepared for TVB's filming speed for a long time, but he still didn't expect it to be so fast, this TV series has only been filmed for a few months since it was prepared, and half of the filming has already been completed.
"Then did you go to the filming site to visit the class?" He Yun thought for a moment and asked Zhang Lai.
"I've been there, I've been there three times!" Zhang Lai nodded.
"When will I be able to get a sample?" He Yun asked again.
"It's coming! It is estimated that the end of the year will be almost there. He Yun's words fell, and Zhang Lai replied.
"At the end of the year?" He Yun muttered a sentence and said with satisfaction: "It's okay!" When the time comes, I want to take a look at the sample film, and you can talk to TVB about it. ”
"Okay!" Zhang Laidao.
"Mr. He, in fact, there is one more thing, I have to report it to you!"
"Say!" He Yun glanced at Zhang Lai and said immediately.
"That's right, now the company has no money!" At this time, Zhang Lai was very embarrassed.
"No money? Are you saying that even the basic operation of the company is not enough? He Yun couldn't help but say.
"Hmm...... Now there are only 3,000 yuan left in the books, and next month's salary ......"
"Don't say it, I'll inject 50,000 yuan into the company tomorrow." After He Yun finished speaking, he thought for a while and said again: "It seems that the source of income has been reduced." ”
"Mr. He, when it comes to opening up sources and reducing expenditure, I actually have an idea." Without waiting for He Yun to finish speaking, Zhang Lai immediately said.
"Tell me what you think!" He Yun looked at him.
Now Yunyi Film and Television only has the TV series project "Qin Shi Mingyue", but there are more than 20 employees, and in the short term, the company has no income, so why can't it just keep waiting.
We have to find a way to open up sources and reduce expenditure.
Otherwise, even if He Yun invests more money into it, it will be in vain.
"Mr. He, my idea is very simple! Let's cooperate with film studios to shoot movies, such as Mr. He's "Four Seas for Home", I think it's quite suitable for adaptation into a movie. ”
"Home to the Four Seas? Here's a short story of mine! I remember that it seemed to be created three years ago. ”
At that time, he remembered submitting it to "Story Club", which told the ordinary story of a waste picker.
It's about 8,000 words, and after it was voted out at that time, it was serialized at the story meeting, but it didn't cause any splash, and there weren't even a few letters from readers.
Even He Yun felt that this one was the most casual of the works he created.
But he didn't expect that Zhang Lai would say that this was very suitable for adaptation into a movie, which made him a little confused.
"Mr. He, although your film looks very ordinary, I have carefully studied it, whether it is the shooting cost or the values it conveys, it is very suitable for making a movie."
"For example, there are four characters involved in this movie, and the main line is also very clear, that is, the scavengers picked up a child, but the child was abandoned by his biological parents because of illness, and later because the child's uncle inherited an inheritance abroad, he came back to look for the child, from which, an important question was discussed, who is more important than parenting grace and money!"
"Wait...... I don't think I'm talking about this social issue, right? Where did you see that? He Yun didn't wait for Zhang Lai to finish speaking, and immediately asked.
In fact, he already understood what Zhang Lai meant, if this film is adapted into a movie, first, the shooting cost is low, the shooting is not difficult, the time will be relatively short, if it is released, it will not be a problem to recover the cost.
Of course, the most important thing is that this film seems ordinary, but it explores a current social issue, and it is expected to win awards.
But the problem is that he clearly remembers that he doesn't seem to have explored this issue in the movie, but another issue - the value of waste pickers in society.
That's right, his book naturally has a deep meaning, exploring the value of the lowest level of society to society.
As for what Zhang Lai said about the importance of money and the grace of nurturing, he didn't think about it so much at all.
"Ahem...... Mr. He, I know you haven't discussed this issue in it, but can we join in the discussion of this issue, if the movie is adapted like this, it can be ......"
"Wait...... Wait a minute! You mean, it's your own idea? He Yun asked.
"Uh...... Mr. He, I ...... It's just a fantasy! ”
"No, no, no...... Actually, you have a good idea, so be it! You should contact the film studio first, and it is best to talk to the screenwriter of their film studio, and then I will consider the transfer of adaptation rights! ”
"Okay! Mr. He! ”
