In other words, Gao Fei didn't go empty-handed to visit the class of "Sword and Smile".

After all, it is his own crew, and most of the employees are Zhou Yi's people, if he, the boss, is too picky, it will affect morale a little.

So at noon, I simply called a hotel dining car to come over, so that the crew could improve the food, and eat some fresh fruit by the way.

Only then did I earn two good words of "long live the boss".

Although he knew that they were sycophants, Goofy was still happy to hear it.

There was one thing that made him a little uncomfortable.

That is, Liu Yifei's eyes were a little strange when he looked at him, as if he ...... It's like a pig killer wondering where to put a knife.

was so frightened that Gao Fei didn't dare to delay any longer, and left the crew in a hurry after having some lunch.

……

Not to mention how Liu Yifei was tying the villain in her heart after Gao Fei left.

Goofy's side didn't sit idle after all.

After returning to Houhai No. 9 Courtyard, he wanted to take a leisurely moment for a while.

But I didn't expect that after a while, Ning Hao came to the door.

And it doesn't matter if he comes alone, the important thing is that he brought Chen Er with him.

Seeing this, Goofy knew that his leisurely time of walking fish and teasing birds was coming to an end.

Sure enough, as soon as Ning Hao entered the courtyard, he said to Gao Fei with a smile on his face:

"Boss, the book has been changed, you can start shooting at any time, just waiting for you!"

Hearing this, Gao Fei suddenly sighed helplessly:

"I knew it wouldn't be good to see you!"

However, seeing his disgusted face, Chen Er, who came to Courtyard No. 9 for the first time, was a little speechless.

Listen, what's that called?

Isn't the good thing of an actor that there is filming, how can it become a chore in his mouth!

However, when Chen Er saw the low-key and elegant and luxurious private gardens around him, this thought suddenly dissipated.

No way, isn't it a chore for such a rich master?

Besides, right now, he is still pointing to Zhou Yi to eat.

Therefore, in the face of Gao Fei, Chen Er, as a director, can't help but be a little restrained.

Seeing this situation, Gao Fei didn't care, but first picked up the script revised by Ning Hao and Chen Er and read it. After a moment, Fang nodded slightly.

I have to say that with Ning Hao's help, the story logic and plot transformation of this version of "Border Storm" are much smoother.

So the last bit of luck in Goofy's heart was completely broken.

"Alas~ I really can't hide from what should come!"

After a few words of helpless emotion, Gao Fei looked straight to the side of Chen Er and asked:

"Director Chen, have you chosen all the actors?"

Seeing Gao Fei say this, Ning Hao immediately walked aside with a smile and looked lively.

But then again, although Ning Hao is a little wilted, he is still very reliable at work.

He is also willing to help newcomer directors.

But who made Chen Er's temper too stubborn, young and vigorous, and didn't take certain rules very seriously.

So Ning Hao didn't say anything after two words of persuasion.

Because he believes that reality will teach him how to be a human being after all.

In the end, it didn't happen.

……

On the other side, when Goofy spoke, it was just a conversation.

But he didn't want Chen Er to listen to it, so he nodded seriously, and took out a list from his pocket on the spot, and introduced these actors to Gao Fei with great interest.

From the starring role to the supporting role, I talked about it for a while!

It wasn't until he stopped with a dry mouth that Gao Fei, who had been silent, said coldly:

"It seems...... You can't look down on our Zhou Yi people, Director Chen! ”

As soon as these words came out, Chen Er couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly explained:

"No, Mr. Gao...... No, that's not what I meant! ”

Chen Er is young and vigorous, but he can still hear good words.

Seeing this situation, Ning Hao, who was on the side, shook his head with emotion.

In fact, when Chen Er first wrote the list of actors, Ning Hao persuaded him not to be in such a hurry, Zhou Yi still has a lot of working space for the director, and rarely interferes with the director's decision.

I don't know if this sentence gave him an illusion, or if Chen Er misunderstood Ning Hao's meaning, but he wrote in more detail.

So now that it's down to this point, it's really no wonder that it's flying high.

After all, I can stop talking, but you can't really be a dead man, right?

Being good at talking doesn't mean being easy to bully, and respect is mutual.

While the producer respects the director's rights, the director should also respect the producer.

Because, the money is given by someone else.

And taking other people's money to realize one's own ideals naturally has to pay a certain price.

That's how it is sometimes.

You must know that there are many unreasonable people in this society, and it is already very good to meet a few people who are willing to be reasonable and follow the rules.

So the more this is the case, the more you can't give others a chance to find fault with them in the end.

Fortunately, Gao Fei didn't really want to do anything to Chen Er.

After saying a few words, Chen Er's face turned red, and then he gave Ning Hao, who was watching the excitement on the side, a look.

Seeing this situation, Ning Hao walked over to play a round with unfinished thinking, and then pulled Chen Er aside and said a few words of relief.

After some tossing, the three of them sat in the pavilion by the pool and officially talked about it.

And for the actor candidates listed by Chen Er, Gao Fei has not changed much.

In addition to changing the role of the policeman's sister to Mao Xiaotong, it is just that the heroine is replaced by Gui Lunmei.

(⊙o⊙)… What, he is definitely not an actor who changed because of his appearance.

It's just that I just think Gui Lunmei is more suitable than Bai Baihe!

Well, that's it!

……

The next day, when Goofy and Gui Lunmei meet again.

After she saw Gao Fei, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth.

So the iceberg beauty, who was still in the posture of "rejecting people thousands of miles away", melted the ice and snow in a blink of an eye, and turned into a human elf!

However, she didn't make any abrupt moves, just looked at Gao Fei with a smile and said softly:

"Thank you this time!"

Seeing this situation, Gao Fei naturally did not refuse, and immediately sat beside her, and joked with a smile:

"And how do you want to thank me? Pledge in person? ”

As soon as these words came out, Gui Lunmei couldn't help but glance at him helplessly, shook her head and said:

"Alas~ Can't you be serious for a while!"

But having said that, after a while, she and Goofy were still chatting and laughing.

And looking at the two people who were talking and laughing not far away, Ning Hao in front of the conference room didn't know what to say for a while.

To be honest, he really admired Goofy.

You must know that after Goofy appeared, Gui Lunmei was like a different person.

And even a fool can guess what is the cause of this change.

So Ning Hao really admires Gao Fei's skills.

If it weren't for his wife who also worked in Zhou Yi's screenwriting department, Ning Hao really wanted to learn two tricks from Gao Fei.

And just as Ning Hao was thinking about it, the main creators of "Border Storm" were almost all there.

But even if it's all there, there aren't many of them.

In addition to Gao Fei and Gui Lunmei, who played the protagonists, there are more scenes left by Mao Xiaotong, Yang Kun, Ni Dahong, Zhang Yi and others.

Therefore, this script reading only needs to be attended by a group of them.

By the way, there's a little bit of a hiccup here.

In fact, at the beginning, the first choice of the anti-narcotics police was not Zhang Yi, but Zhang Zuming, because Chen Er was taken care of by his father back then, so he wanted to repay one or two.

Goofy didn't pay much attention to this.

He understands Chen Er's behavior very well, and is willing to turn a blind eye.

After all, Huaxia has always been a humane society.

People who don't talk about people may be able to succeed for a while, but the ceiling will certainly not be too high.

People may appreciate this kind of personality, but they will never want to make friends with this kind of person.

It's just that I didn't expect Gao Fei to nod here, but this matter was stopped by Chen Zhixi.

This made Goofy very curious.

You must know that Chen Zhixi has been a producer for so long, and it is the first time that he has directly interfered with the director's casting work.

However, out of trust in Chen Zhixi's work ability, Gao Fei did not say anything, because he believed that Chen Zhixi would definitely have his own reasons for doing so.

Sure enough, in the face of Chen Er's rather dissatisfied eyes, I saw Chen Zhixi open his mouth unmoved:

"It's better not to use this person!"

"Especially, you can't let him play the role of an anti-narcotics policeman!"

"Because he's certainly not suitable!"

It is said that although Gao Fei is Chen Zhixi's boss, if he talks about some gossip news and gossip in the entertainment industry, then he is really not as clear as Chen Zhixi.

Because they deal with different people, Goofy knows that most of them are some high-level news.

It is precisely for this reason that Chen Zhixi has heard some "rumors".

For example, this Young Master Zhang is said to have a soft spot for certain "leaves".

You must know that although this thing is banned in the country, the entertainment industry, especially the underground music industry, almost does not take it seriously.

The special group of young people who have just entered the industry even use this kind of thing as a tool for pretending, but they can't get out if they don't want to step in!

I have to say that some people do die by themselves and can't complain about others.

Even if Chen Er wanted to repay the favor again, but after listening to Chen Zhixi's words, he was embarrassed to write Zhang Zu's name again, so Zhang Yi picked up a leak.

But it's a good thing for this movie.

Don't look at the two of them are surnamed Zhang, but compared with Zhang Yi, Zhang Zuming is really not enough in other aspects except that his father is stronger than others.

That is, at present, Zhang Yi mainly mixes in the TV drama circle, otherwise he will have a place in the film industry sooner or later with his acting skills.

This is also where Gao Fei envies Huayi the most.

Don't look at the Wang brothers who are floating now, but Huayi's background is really thick, and you can dig out a powerful actor with a few pulls in the corner.

And this kind of first-mover advantage is not the ability of a rising star like Zhou Yi to work hard, because Huayi eats the dividends of the times.

……

But then again, although many crews have gradually stopped reading the script.

But it is very necessary for the crew of "Border Storm".

Because Chen Er, like Ning Hao, is a die-hard fan of Quentin Tarantino.

Therefore, this film, like "Vulgar" and "Reservoir Dogs", adopts a non-linear narrative in the form of chapters.

To put it simply, it is to deliberately shuffle the normal chronological order of the development of the story, rearrange and combine them.

So in terms of character relationships and plot combing, if the creators don't sort it out well, it's really easy to misunderstand.

But the most troublesome thing is that Chen Er still plays minimalism in this film.

In short, "don't add entities if you don't have to."

Therefore, in the book of "Border Storm", not only the storyline is never muddy, but even the dialogue between the characters is pitiful.

Not even a single character name appears from beginning to end, and almost everyone is distinguished by their relationship and profession.

For example, Zhang Yi is an anti-narcotics policeman, so Mao Xiaotong's character is the policeman's sister, and most of the others are distinguished by one profession.

For example, Teacher Ni Dahong is a dentist, Gao Fei is a drug dealer, and Yang Kun's job is a killer...... None of them seem to deserve a name.

Therefore, when the reading meeting began, Mao Xiaotong raised his hand quite embarrassedly and asked:

"That...... Director, can I ask why everyone's characters don't have names? Does it have any special meaning? ”

Seeing her say this, the others immediately looked at Chen Er curiously.

Only Gui Lunmei is a slight exception.

Because the heroine she plays has a nickname called "Xiao An", as for the official name, there is still none.

It's just that Chen Eryan shrugged his shoulders unappetly when he heard this:

"It's not interesting."

"It's useless to have a name anyway, it's enough for us to read the story and the characters themselves."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was dumbfounded.

But then the actors didn't bother too much about it, after all, most of the directors have some quirks, and they have long been used to it.

So several people quickly discussed the plot.

In other words, this film actually tells two stories.

However, it can also be said that it is two lines of one story.

The main body of the movie is mainly the first story based on Goofy.

To put it simply, Gao Fei was discovered by the police when he was involved in a drug deal with his boss when he was young, and finally abducted the daughter of dentist Ni Dahong a few years old in the process of escaping, and later raised her.

Ten years later, the original Ma Tsai Goofy has become a big drug lord, and the dentist daughter Gui Lunmei has become his wife.

(⊙o⊙)… Well, if you want to summarize it briefly.

Then the first story is called "The Child Daughter-in-law and Her Drug Lord's Husband", which is actually not a problem.

As for the second story, it's a side story.

The main story is the story of the anti-narcotics policeman Zhang Yi and his unjust sister Mao Xiaotong.

However, at the end of the movie, like Ning Hao played in "Crazy Racing", these two story lines are tightly intertwined.

And this is also the reason why Ning Hao is willing to come over to be a producer.

Therefore, in the preparation process of "Border Storm", Ning Hao actually played a great role.

Because of the experience accumulated by the two movies in the Crazy Series, it is simply the official game guide for Chen Er.

So in the process of reading the script, in the face of one question after another raised by the actors, Chen Er almost discussed with Ning Hao to answer.

I have to say that Ning Hao, the producer, is really cost-effective!
