Chapter 17: Jiang Wu starred
Early the next morning, Jiang Wu came to the courtyard to find Qin Muchu.
Qin Muchu also finished washing up and was about to go to breakfast.
As soon as the two met, Jiang Wu grabbed Qin Muchu and patted him on the shoulder:
"You're a kid enough to be angry with me!"
Seeing Jiang Wu's attitude, Qin Muchu also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
At first, he was worried that his "second uncle" would be unhappy because of his "willfulness", after all, making a movie is not a trivial matter, involving nearly 10 million dollars.
And he, in the final analysis, is just Jiang Wen's godson.
"Second uncle, have you eaten? Let's go for a bite to eat? Qin Muchu asked.
This second uncle also shouted from the heart.
Others treat him as family, and he can't treat others as outsiders.
"Okay, let's go! We haven't eaten together yet. Jiang Wu agreed.
The place where the two of them ate was not far from the courtyard, just at the mouth of the alley, so they didn't drive, and walked there.
When I arrived at the place, it was an old restaurant with little decoration, and the owner was a middle-aged couple, and it looked like it should be a family business.
"Taste, this fried liver tastes right, come to a bowl in the morning, don't mention the taste!" Jiang Wu greeted enthusiastically.
It seems to be eaten regularly.
Qin Muchu naturally nodded yes.
He didn't spend much time with this second uncle.
Compared with Jiang Wen, Jiang Wu's appearance is more rugged.
When outsiders look at the past, they will feel that Jiang Wu should be more heroic and more Jianghu than his brother Jiang Wen.
In fact, quite the opposite.
There is a saying that Jiang Wen is not literate, and Jiang Wu is not martial.
Jiang Wen has been bold since he was a child and dares to do anything; Jiang Wu is more honest, not as skinny as Jiang Wen.
Therefore, the names of the two belong to what is lacking and what is supplemented, but unfortunately, the effect is not obvious.
"Second uncle, this is the script I wrote, you can take a look and give advice."
Qin Muchu saw that Jiang Wu had almost eaten, so he handed over the script he brought.
He knew that Jiang Wu should still be worried about making a movie this time, but Jiang Wen spoke, and he couldn't say anything.
So Qin Muchu deliberately came up with the script, so as to calm his heart first, and let him know that he was not fooling around.
In fact, it is.
Jiang Wu had already gone to bed when he received Jiang Wen's call last night, and after hearing what his brother had arranged for him, his first reaction was that his brother and his "godnephew" went crazy together.
But because he was beaten by his brother since he was a child, he is now middle-aged, and he is still afraid of his brother.
Growing up together, he also knew that no one could change what Jiang Wen decided, so he could only get up in the middle of the night and try his best.
……
Jiang Wu took the script handed by Qin Muchu and read it carefully.
In fact, he wanted to mention it for a long time, but he couldn't find a suitable reason, after all, the two said that they were uncles and nephews, but they had been together for a short time and were not familiar with each other.
Jiang Wu looked at the script, and at first he was still a little scrutinized, but he slowly integrated into it, and even forgot where he was.
……
After an hour......
"Good! Absolutely! ”
Jiang Wu suddenly slammed the table, so frightened that Qin Muchu, who was writing on the table, threw away his pen.
The people around who were eating breakfast also cast annoyed glances, if it weren't for Jiang Wu not looking like a good person, it is estimated that someone would have scolded the street.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, everyone!"
Jiang Wu also knew that he had committed public anger, so he got up and hugged his fists and apologized to the people around him.
He was also so happy to read this book.
"Young master, let me tell you, your book, good, great! We can do this! ”
Jiang Wu sat down, so excited that he didn't know where to put his hand, and his bearded face was full of smiles.
"Second uncle, if you can see it, let's go back and talk about other things." Qin Muchu looked very calm.
Jiang Wu also calmed down, and when he saw Qin Muchu's not arrogant or impatient appearance, he was even more appreciative in his heart.
Big brother, this godson, really recognizes it right!
Quadrangle.
"Have you decided which actors will play which roles?" Jiang Wu asked.
"Some ideas are still uncertain, and I need my father and second uncle to check them again."
Qin Muchu handed Jiang Wu a piece of paper with his initial thoughts on some characters.
There are only a few main characters in this play.
Li Wangping (mentally retarded dad):
Li Xiyue (young) (daughter):
Li Xiyue (adult): Yang Mi
Chief:
Several fellow inmates in prison:
Teacher:
Chief of Police:
Remaining Characters:
Jiang Wu looked at the paper in his hand and fell silent.
Ban Xiang said: "Young master, it's just a decision, so there's no need to write it on paper." ”
"Hey, hey." Qin Muchu scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
Suddenly, he looked at Jiang Wu, who had a speechless expression, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.
Jiang Wu also saw Qin Muchu's gaze at him, and just when he was a little uncomfortable by Qin Muchu, he finally heard Qin Muchu speak:
"Second uncle, why don't you play this Li Wangping!"
Qin Muchu was dark under the lamp.
Jiang Wu is also an actor with good acting skills and has won many awards.
And his own image is also suitable for Li Wangping, a mentally retarded father - there is a stupidity on his body.
Of course, he didn't say this, for fear of being beaten.
"Shall I act?"
Jiang Wu was taken aback, but after thinking about it, he really liked the story and the character.
"That's okay, I'll play it!"
He didn't hesitate and agreed.
"The remaining characters, the second uncle also bothered a lot, especially the role of the little girl, which is very important."
Qin Muchu simply entrusted everything directly to Jiang Wu.
"You kid......"
Jiang Wu also smiled, and pointed at Qin Muchu with his finger, but whoever let it be his nephew could only come down.
"You give me a copy of the script, and I have to send it for review." Jiang Wu said.
Qin Muchu agreed, but suddenly remembered that this script involved the police chief's personal vendetta for his dead daughter, and he couldn't help but be a little worried:
"Second uncle, do you say that this part of the book can pass the trial?"
Jiang Wu also frowned, "It shouldn't be a big problem, and it's not too much to smear ......"
As he spoke, he didn't have much confidence.
Their family has a criminal record.
At that time, Jiang Wen was banned for five years because the script was not reviewed, and he directly "got on the bus first, and then made up the ticket".
"Why don't you change the script, and don't put the background on the mainland, but on Hong Kong Island?"
The scripts that Qin Muchu showed others have all been revised and sinicized, after all, the original version is from the country of kimchi, and some names and the like have a strong taste of kimchi.
"But there is no death penalty on Hong Kong Island." Qin Muchu said.
Hong Kong Island, unlike the mainland, has long since abolished the death penalty.
And this movie tells the story of a mentally retarded father who was unjustly sentenced to death.
"Yes." Jiang Wu shook his head.
"Or is the story set in the Bay Province? Will it work? Qin Muchu asked.
There is a death penalty in Bay Province, and some of the styles are similar to those of Kimchi Country, so it is perfect to put the background there.
"Yes, yes, let it go!"
Jiang Wu clapped his hands and agreed.
Now that it was decided, Qin Muchu immediately revised the script.
In fact, nothing has changed, and even after the background is placed in the Bay Province, you can basically use the pickle version of the script directly.
Except for some small details, even the names of people can be used in the original.
After all, there are few people on the mainland who call "Li Longjiu", and there is a similar naming style in the Bay Province.
……
Jiang Wu took Qin Muchu's revised script and left, saying that there would be results in about ten days.
Of course, this is a relationship, otherwise ordinary people will have to go through the process for several months to review.
Qin Muchu retracted into his small room after Jiang Wu left.
I didn't read the script, and I didn't think about how the movie should be made.
He just lay on the bench and stared blankly at the ceiling.
"Qin Muchu, our first movie is about to start."
The sound was so small that it dissipated before it came out of the room, and there was only one person in the room, and no one responded.
