Chapter 90: The Silence of the Lambs

Wang Wei hung up the phone, and Lao Wang's complaint rang in his ears.

"Today's young people are bigger than the other. Villain as actor? If you spread this, will you be considered crazy? ”

There was some teasing in his words, but there was no trace of a smile on Wang Chuanqi's face.

In fact, the silence in the entire conference room had lasted for more than ten minutes.

Since they read Wang Wei's new script, Lao Wang frowned, and Zhou Lin and Xu Daoxing tightened their faces.

Because it was so unexpected!

The new title is "The Silence of the Lambs".

In the heroine column, the name of "Shen Zhenyi" is written;

The actor column is empty, but combined with the phone call just now, someone's mind is simply revealed.

Who here doesn't know Wang Wei's character?

Don't look at this guy being scolded, he usually doesn't respond immediately, but his back hand is black.

Didn't Song Zhicheng say that Ya is not artistic, and he feels very awesome? Even if he only won tens of millions of box office at most, is it still a big step better than Wang Wei, who won hundreds of millions of box office?

Okay, I won't beep any more, I'll find a way to get a prize and have fun with it, so that you so-called "art masters" can completely shut up!

The question is –

"Is there a precedent in the history of the Pegasus Awards for a thriller film to win a heavyweight award?" Zhou Lin asked in a deep voice.

"Not to mention the Pegasus Awards, even the older Oscars have no precedent for this. It's too difficult for a thriller to get recognized by the judges. ”

Xu Daoxing reminded him with a straight look, of course, in the end, he saved face for the big boss.

It's not just hard, it's probably not good at all.

Of course, it's not that the script sucks.

On the contrary, the story is a good story, isn't it?

Be.

- A young female detective must trust an incarcerated, manipulative killer and accept his help in catching another serial killer who skinned his victims.

Just by looking at the synopsis of one sentence, the story has a selling point.

But I don't feel suitable for Wang Weipai.

Because it is neither suitable for winning awards nor for exploding at the box office.

Although creative directors will not stick to a certain genre, they will transform and play from time to time, and many masterpieces are born in this way.

But......

"Your type of span is also too big, aren't you afraid of pulling eggs?"

Wang Chuanqi had a toothache on his face, as if he had been pulled by the egg.

"Big nephew, you are known as a genius of commercial films, what do you do to compete with the awards? If you want to say that it is for the box office, you have a proper restriction level, all minors are forbidden to watch, and it is naturally bad for the box office, okay? ”

There was one more point he didn't say.

Although there is a film classification system in China, the subject matter is theoretically completely liberalized; But we have our own national conditions here, and films with a large scale of bloody violence are tacitly restricted every year, so this has never been a hot topic.

Wang Wei just tapped his fingers lightly on the tabletop without saying a word.

Seeing this, Wang Chuanqi continued to persuade: "Why don't we still recognize the path of youth comedy and go on while the iron is hot?" ”

Regardless of whether it is "Peking Holiday", "Genius Gunman", or the unreleased "My Sassy Girlfriend", it is all sunny, and it can make money, and it can open another door for filmmakers, isn't it great?

"Or, if you want to transform, I think "Once Upon a Time" with only an outline is also very good. If you want to make a kung fu movie, I don't say a word, I raise my hands and feet in agreement. ”

Zhou Lin and Xu Daoxing nodded in unison.

Even if it was the first "Peking Holiday", they had never objected so neatly.

To put it bluntly, they don't believe that Wang Wei can win the award, let alone that Wang Wei can win the award with an unprecedented thriller.

Wang Wei squinted and smiled: "Really, I'm actually not used to seeing someone arrogant in front of me." Can bragging? I'm not convinced! Winning awards with themes that no one dares to think of, bragging, who wouldn't? ”

If Lao Wang met Wang Wei on the first day, they might have believed that he was bragging.

But now...... He was right to say it the other way around.

- Some people brag, but they only brag; I'm bragging, and I'm afraid it's really awesome in the end.

The others looked at each other.

Big brother, you don't have any difficulty, so you create difficulty for yourself.

They couldn't read it, but they were shocked.

Wang Wei saw the confusion in their eyes, but it was difficult for him to explain his confidence.

It is true that the original "The Silence of the Lambs" has created a miracle by winning the five most valuable awards at next year's Oscars with the theme of thrillers.

- Of course, now I don't even know where the butterfly went to the original novel of the same name.

But even if we do it all over again according to history, no one can guarantee a 100% replication of this miracle, because in addition to strength, it also takes a little bit of luck to win the prize.

Who can replicate luck?

Wang Wei can't, but doesn't he have a golden finger?

He "peeked" at the systemβ€”

[Temporary Mission: Battle for the Right Name.]

Mission: Shoot a feature film as a director and fight back against the media's gunman on behalf of the film.

Reward: Clip Aura (Beginner). 】

- "The temporary quest is complete, and the host gains the Clip Aura (Elementary)." ”

- "Editing Aura (Elementary): When the host is making a film as a director, wear this aura and master professional editing skills. ”

When the media collectively apologized and "Genius Gunman" promoted the implementation of education reform, this temporary task was quietly completed.

But that's not the point.

The focus is on the three treasure chests that drop.

Although "Genius Gunman" has not been completely removed from the shelves, it has entered the end of the box office, and the records that can be broken have been broken, and those that cannot be broken are basically hopeless.

Therefore, this time, there are only rewards for "the youngest billion director record", "the fastest box office record to break 200 million", and "box office record of youth film genre".

The chest has been opened - +2 Health Regeneration Aura, +1 Resonance Aura.

The latter is the source of confidence to ensure that "The Silence of the Lambs" will win the award.

The memory of his life tells Wang Wei that as long as there is a phenomenal influence, so that opponents don't even dare to fart, pure commercial films can still win awards!

Compared with honest literary films and honest public relations judges, Wang Wei still prefers this kind of "convincing people with reason".

As for how to create a phenomenal influence, Wang Wei, who has already used the big killer weapon of "Resonance Halo" once, has a conjecture, just waiting for "The Silence of the Lambs" to verify it.

The only headache is that unless Qiangang is arbitrary, he can't convince Lao Wang to them.

They don't have an aura to support them, and not strongly opposing them is already their limit, and it must be a dream to think about how supportive they are.

But Wang Wei has his own clever plan.

"Let's not talk about this for a while, turn on the TV, isn't Song Zhicheng's "Lower City" released today? It's said he's going to brag again......"

Turn on the TV, and sure enough-

Song Zhicheng, who was interviewed publicly at the premiere, was unsurprisingly asked by reporters, what do you think of "Shen Zhenyi and Wang Wei did not respond"?

He said confidently: "It's okay if you don't respond, I've already sent the script of the new film to Shen Zhenyi, and she has her own choice after watching it." I can let her take the road of powerful acting skills, not the path of some people who praise her as a national idol......"

"Smack."

Wang Wei fixed his proud face on the TV screen, patted the script of "The Silence of the Lambs" on the table, and chuckled: "Coincidentally, I also handed this script to Xiaozhen." ”

He then said to the three people who were out of their nostrils after watching the interview: "Then that's it, if Xiaozhen chooses "The Silence of the Lambs", then I can only shoot it myself, okay?" ”

The three of them looked at each other, and they wanted to ask - what if she didn't choose you?

But at this time, they were very desperate to remain silent.
