Chapter 9: 'The Chinese Dream, the American Dream'
Being called a teacher by Director Yang is quite literal, that is, he really has to take out something to teach him, and the three of them were obviously attracted by Li Suan, so they have to show some real kung fu at this time.
Li Shu used lipstick to write the male protagonist's design on the wall of the executive suite, and as soon as he put down the pen, Mr. Zhang over there reacted.
Mr. Zhang: "In the 08 subprime mortgage crisis in the United States, our male protagonist can use this time to return to China and then ......"
Li Suan directly interrupted: "No, the meaning of the pointing is too strong." We want black, but we want high-end black. Our male protagonist is a Loser in the United States, because he doesn't know who he is, he can have a Chinese mother, an American stepfather, and the stepfather often tells him, you are not an American, and you are not a Chinese. ”
"Two devils?" Brother Jiu interjected.
"Listen well." Director Yang was not happy.
"It's not a second devil, it's a person without roots, Chinese Americans can be our theme, but our hero will ...... when he comes back."
"Live in the alley!" Director Yang kept up with the rhythm.
"Yes, live in the alley!"
Li Suan added another stroke, "The audience thinks that this American will definitely be frightened by the prosperity and development of the motherland when he comes back, but no, he will feel that in the capital of a country, where can there be such a large area of slums." ”
"Our heroine should have appeared?" Teacher Zhang also followed.
"Yes, I work on the financial street, I also live in the alley, I live in a bungalow, our female protagonist tells the male protagonist, the place where you live is called the root of the imperial city, a place where people with status can live in the past!"
Brother Jiu is out of place: "Wait, the alley is so expensive, how can he live there?" ”
"Daddy's legacy." Director Yang looked at Brother Jiu with disdain.
"That's right, the next thing is the neighborhood, take our second generation of Chinese to feel the fireworks in the world. It's still our routine, he must feel that he came back from the United States and can do anything, but the reality tells him that there are smarter people in the world than you, but there is no more industrious nation than our Chinese. If you have any innovation, others will copy it quickly, and in the face of our group of kings of involution, this buddy will suffer......"
Teacher Zhang asked: "Involution?" Is it competition? ”
Li Suan also realized that he had used the words of the afterlife: "Yes." ”
Then he had a flash of inspiration: "By the way, the male protagonist should also have a half-sister, not the Uyghur kind, the Chinese-American mixed race is a little more obvious......"
"What do you want her to do?" Teacher Zhang asked.
"She is learning snow sports, preferably snowboarding, she fell in love with this land before the male protagonist, and then chose between snowboarding and study, at the end of the play, this sister is thinking about how to join the Chinese nationality, and in the Olympic Games, wearing the five-star red flag."
This person is Gu Ailing.
Li Suan just made a suggestion, whether to adopt it or not, it depends on Director Yang, to see how to find this Chinese man with an American face.
Waiting for the last stroke on the wall, looking at the main characters that had just come out, Director Yang fell into deep thought.
Li Suan looked at Director Yang's expression, knowing that it would not work, he would do it here, if Director Yang still felt that this was inappropriate, then he Li Suan would not be able to return to the sky.
There was an uncomfortable silence in the executive suite, and Li Suan sat on the sofa, looking at the lipstick that was almost all over the wall.
If you work hard to this extent, you should be able to do it, right?
He and Teacher Zhang are ordinary superiors and subordinates, although this ability comes from the other party's words and deeds, but to say that this master is as kind to him as a mountain, it would be too serious.
If there is really a Buddha in this world, then he was crazy on the verge of imprisonment, and it took a lot of fright to gather these people.
However, when things have developed to this point, Li Suan is a little reluctant.
This is a project with an investment of 120 million, the director is a famous director, the producer is a gold medal, Mr. Zhang's ability he knows, this is a girl who writes things and doesn't want to die, such a group of people get together, but the project is shelved in the end.
Li Shu returned from rebirth and pointed out the project problems, and the play had to be rewritten from beginning to end...... Now the test is whether Director Yang and Teacher Zhang's artistic pursuit is firm, and whether Brother Jiu can withstand all kinds of pressure and follow them to fight again.
But the question is, none of them are born again, will they gamble on their fame and future to gamble on this game?
Li Suan sat on the sofa, at this time he didn't think about the brick anymore, the battle in silence, one side is the capital of fame and interests, and the other side is the pursuit of art in his heart, and these are not available to Li Suan.
"Director?" Teacher Zhang suddenly opened his mouth.
"You say."
"In fact, the purpose of our play is not to sing the praises of virtue, nor to black anything, but to bring out a theme, the Chinese dream and the American dream are the same, the dream does not matter what you say in Chinese or English, and it doesn't matter what skin color you are, what country, because dreams do not distinguish between people."
Director Yang's eyes lit up.
Li Suan secretly admired, this woman who eats with her brains can't be hated. He looked at the amount of lipstick on his hand, stood up, and left the last words on the wall.
'A community with a shared future for mankind'
It's a slogan for the future, but it's the right time, when the red letters written on the wall are complete, and this slogan is the most important piece that makes the puzzle complete.
Director Yang's eyes are shining, no matter whether he is an old man who is not respectful and immortal, the hearts of the five generations of directors have the pursuit of art.
Mr. Zhang's face was flushed, obviously excited, no matter the initial purpose of entering this project, and no matter what kind of calculations he had before, the charm of art in his heart was infinite at this time.
Only Brother Jiu, he felt the feeling when Li Suan was typing as an assistant to Teacher Zhang, he was short of breath, and he just thought, these people are really bullish!
"That's it, change!"
Director Yang made a decision, he knew that this change was based on the fame he had struggled for many years, and he also knew that he had the habit of writing and shooting at the same time, and he would be famous in Kyoto from now on.
"You go and tell Qi Long, I'll go find Ziwen, and tell your little assistant to quickly sort out the content of the recording, and the first version of the outline can be published tomorrow? 5,000 words! ”
"Yes." Teacher Zhang nodded.
Director Yang looked at Brother Jiu: "Tell the whole crew, if anyone drops the chain for me in this scene, he will appear in the future, and besides, you are not allowed to eat a penny!" ”
Brother Jiu said: "I understand, you have to let me go to find tens of millions of investments...... Mr. Li, where are you going? ”
Brother Jiu set his sights on Li Suan, who wanted to slip away quietly, and did not intend to let him retire.
Li Shu casually said: "I'm hungry." ”
Brother Jiu came to the spirit: "Let's go, let's go to Kempinski to eat seafood." ”
"I just want to eat something simple."
"The roadside stall is also with you, you are the host and guest today, you have the final say!"
Li Suan looked helpless: "Brother Jiu, you just let me go, I can summarize this thing with everyone, but I can't write it, I really don't have that ability, this is all inspiration, swish, say no, it's gone, can you understand?" ”
"Yes, I know. You can do whatever you want, but don't open this door. ”
"Why?"
Brother Jiu looked embarrassed: "I brought someone here, you want to open the door, I'm afraid of hurting you." ”
Seeing Brother Jiu's serious face, Li Suan also came back to his senses, and his hand left the position of the doorknob.
