Chapter 13: Hoarding Scripts

"By the way, you have a good relationship with Shu Zhan?"

"At that time, Advocacy and I met in the crew of "The Family of Gold Powder", and we were very compatible."

……

I heard that Lin Nan joined the crew of "Baolian Lantern" as a director, and Miss Liu specially sent a message to her, and her mother would find out when she called.

The last time it was mixed up like that, Lin Nan said that he was very nice.

But recently I heard gossip again, which girl next door got involved with the teacher.

Lin Nan is not surprised, is it a big deal to get married, just like Senior Brother Huang, Teacher Huang, isn't it normal to have an abnormal relationship with students, and they are about to get their certificates.

……

can't be idle, Lin Nan began to prepare the second movie script.

I can't play a big-budget commercial film, and I don't have the confidence and grasp yet.

This time, it is either a literary film or a drama, and the cost is moderate anyway.

He began to search in his mind.

When it comes to movie scripts, some are adapted from novels, and some are original scripts.

Lin Nan knows a lot of movies, but he really doesn't pay much attention to which ones are novel adaptations, so he has to pay attention to this, but don't be accused of "plagiarism" at that time.

After thinking about it, I think that if a director wants to do well in this industry, your film must either win awards or sell well at the box office.

There are many high-grossing movies, especially comedies. Although Lin Nan's "Warm and Warm Light" is about love, there are also many funny elements in it.

And if a film wants to win awards, then I am afraid that the box office cannot be considered, either literary films or realistic themes, the latter is easier to win.

Finally, the key point is to choose the type of script, what is the mentality and purpose of making the second script?

Winning or box office?

The video in my memory flashed through my mind like turning a page.

"When I have time, Lao Tzu will write down all the high-quality scripts in these scripts, and then register and file them first", Lin Nan muttered.

There are a lot of European and American films in his mind, and Lin Nan has already made up his mind that the Laomei Screenwriters Association is a good organization.

"Social realities? It's not easy to get this, it's easy to be choked to death, Brother Li has been banned for five years, I can't go abroad to make five-year films like him."

Lin Nan finally decided to postpone the matter of rushing for the awards, and let's do it first with box office movies.

Lin Nan turned on the computer and began to write the script, "Return to Youth" (Return to Twenty Years Old).

……

"Yes, I want to drag you to help me find someone over there, what are you doing? Sign me up for the script."

Lin Nan found Shangying and asked him to find an intermediary channel, mainly to register the script for Lin Nan in the American Screenwriters Association without interruption, and the cost was of course borne by Lin Nan himself.

The other party was very surprised, thinking that Lin Nan was so ambitious and wanted to go there to develop, and persuaded him to stabilize for a few years.

"If you look down on me, just say it, what does it mean to stabilize for a few years."

Lin Nan's mouth was quite hard, but he knew that the other party was for his good.

After thinking about it for a long time, I decided on this "Return to Youth".

Just do it, before going to Jinma at the end of the year, Lin Nan is not ready to do anything else, so he writes the script, registers, writes the script all the time, and registers all the time......

Sooner or later, the Big Eight Hollywood or independent film companies will come to him.

"I don't believe it, hundreds of movie scripts can't make me a guest"?

Such a heartbreaking thing, Lin Nan was excited when he thought about it.

As for "Return to Youth", Lin Nan is ready to keep it secret first, and then look for investment when he comes out of the Baolian Lantern crew, this time he will be more refined and bigger.

took the time to watch the movie information, Hong Kong films can still struggle for a few years, and there are still many Chinese-language movies produced by Hollywood.

"Heroes of Heaven and Earth" is also ready to be released in August, starring the stubborn Jiang Wen, and Xu Cainu's "Me and Dad", but it will not impact the box office of "Mobile Phone".

There are a lot of movies that can't be shown in schools, Hong Kong Island, Europe and the United States, for the sake of teaching, and this is for good reason.

Uncle Long is still able to play, the high production period, "Rush Hour 2" more than a year ago is still fresh in my memory, this is not another "Flying Dragon Regeneration" is coming out, although it can't get in, but it is already in the students' menu.

"Lin Zi, what's wrong with you, your eyes are so dark", someone asked Lin Nan.

"Well, stay up late to write a script".

Lin Nan was very sleepy. I have been copying the script for the past two nights, and the inspiration in my head is constant, and the film is like playing in front of my eyes, and I can't stop.

The young body couldn't survive the third day, and he began to nap in the movie class.

It seems that after sleeping for five minutes, why did you get out of class, Lin Nan muttered.

I didn't eat, I went back to the dormitory in a depressed way, covered myself with a quilt and went to sleep, and I didn't think about whether I had classes in the afternoon.

Within two days, Shangying found the intermediary that Lin Nan needed, a well-known cultural broker in the United States.

Lin Nan also checked it specifically, he is a serious person, and his name is very easy to remember, Tom, a thirty-year-old man.

The rest is easy to do, sign the contract, spend money and do things one at a time, and establish a long-term connection.

That's the news of the recent movies, there are few domestic films, and the import card is strict.

On the contrary, there are many TV series, "Fairy Sword" officially announced that it is selecting actors, and the first game adaptation is not small. "Baolian Lantern" seems to have chosen the actors of the Three Virgins, and I heard that Erlang God helped.

Bu Jingyun is also going to shoot "One Meter of Sunshine" with the future Huanhuan.

Lin Nan also paid attention to Zhou Yi's drama, in the past few years, it has been really perverted, with a high production period, one or two films a year, "Xiao Shiyi Lang" premiered last year, and this year's "Water Moon Cave Sky" was broadcast "Young King" by the way.

Yin Tianxue is a pity, Bai Su is luckier than Tianxue.

chatting with Liu Yifei, I heard that the role of the male protagonist Li Xiaoyao has not yet been decided, and the Tang boss is pushing his newcomer, Daewoo is a little hesitant.

I thought that Liu Yifei was Zhao Linger in the past, but it turned out that it was the role of Anu for so long, and there was only a movement recently, and I wanted to change to the female one.

"Believe me, you will definitely be Zhao Ling'er", Lin Nan cheered her up.

"When filming starts, you come to visit my class, hehe."

Lin Nan thought for a while, "Maybe we can still work together."

"What do you mean"?

Lin Nan asked her to guess by herself, but she got angry, hung up the phone and didn't say anything, and asked Lin Nan to reflect on her attitude towards speaking.

""Baolian Lantern" is probably about the same time as your crew's start-up time, and they are all in Hengdian."

Lin Nan had to reply honestly.

"Really"? There is also a toothy emoji.

"Fake", Lin Nan replied.

"Hmph, I'll ask the advocacy myself", the avatar was gray.

The freshman year passed in such a hurry. Students from other schools may enjoy the summer, but not film and drama students.

The summer vacation is the time to find a crew, with the school's signboard, the starting point is much higher than those professional group performances, and the competitiveness is also strong.

Poor Lin Nan was left behind, and a theory class did not meet the score required by the teacher.

"Seventy-five points, I don't care about other students, you take the seventy-five exam, pass it out and let others say anything, you are also a director with a box office record......"

I didn't expect the teacher of the directing department to be so ruthless, and he caught Lin Nan for half an hour, and said that he had different requirements for outstanding students.

"It's for you, but you still have to take the make-up exam before the start of school, and I will inform the office, you must score 90."

"Okay, teacher, I'll work hard during the holidays."

Finally, it was over, Lin Nan was ready to leave, but was stopped by Director Tian who came in, and said a few words of encouragement before letting Lin Nan go.

"A good seedling is to be attentive, there are many good directors, but there are not many who can make a box office, this kid is not bad."

"What Director Tian said is that this kid is smart-witted, but he is too lazy, and he can pass the class and exam."

Director Tian smiled, the style of their generations of directors is mostly influenced by Europe, but film is both an art and a commodity, and the latter can drive the economy and stimulate the vigorous development of the industry.

Lin Nan left the teachers' office area, and then relaxed a little, "It's not easy to be a good student, don't let you mess around."

I hadn't walked a few steps before I was stopped by a shout, "Teacher Zhou, something"?

"The start of school is early, so you can go to the orientation together".

Lin Nan was stunned, I'm all from the director department, is it appropriate for you to call me like this?

"By the way, there are still a few Zhu Yawen, you crew have to come", said Teacher Zhou turned around and left.

Well, feelings are the reason.

Lin Nan is not going to go back to his hometown, and when he goes back, his father will ask if he has a girlfriend again?

You can't say that you have a crush on an underage girl.

I made a phone call and told my dad that he was preparing the script, and he was going to attend the awards ceremony after the school started, but he really didn't have time, and it was all scheduled for next year.

After appeasing his father, Lin Nan put his mind at ease.

I didn't plan to go out to wave for these two months, so I struck while the iron was hot, wrote down all the scripts in my head, and handed them to Tom to register.

After working hard for a while, I will be happy in the second half of my life.

I went to my small company to take a look at it first, and recently I shared accounts with Shangying and the cinema chain, all of which relied on two finances, and I was a bit of a shopkeeper.

Since you have decided to start a company, no matter how many people there are, you still have to go around from time to time.

After Lin Nan promised to double the bonus this year, he left, and he had to find a house.

Although he knew that buying a house here would definitely make money, Lin Nan was still not in a hurry, and he would earn more money next year and buy a big villa at one time.

As a native of the Northwest, he is not interested in living in a courtyard house, and the investment is okay.

Living in school during the summer vacation, he didn't have this mind, not far from the school, he rented a two-bedroom apartment nearby, and he took root here in the past two months.

In addition to sleeping, eating, and going to the toilet, Lin Nan spends the rest of his time in front of the computer.

Write during the day, write at night, write when you're sleepy, wake up, eat when you're hungry, and write again when you're full......

On this day, Lin Nan was sleeping when his mobile phone rang.

It took me a long time to close my eyes and touch it, "Hey, who's it"?

"Lin Nan"?

"It's me, Lao Zhu is you."

"It's time to start school, where did you go, welcome the new year, you forgot."

Zhu Yawen's roar made Lin Nan sober up a little, and looked at the computer, good guy August 29th, tomorrow will start the registration of new students.

I've been really confused in the past two months, but fortunately, I've had a lot of results.

Wash your face and brush your teeth, go out to eat and cut your hair.

By the way, I called the agent, there is still half a month of lease, let him come over to accept the rent refund, and he is leaving.

If you miss the welcome event, it is estimated that you will be sprayed to death by Teacher Zhou on the spot.

The intermediary is quite conscientious and clean, just to take a group photo.
