In the lounge, Zheng Yi looked at the message sent by Chen Yanan on his phone.

"Thank you for your great help!"

Zheng Yi scratched his head, what did I do?

I didn't do anything.

I've been blowing the air conditioner here and eating snacks, and I haven't touched it.

"Hey, my little author, your rich sister I helped you with the budget, come and kneel!"

The little rich woman in the magic capital sent a message at this time, Zheng Yi looked at it, but didn't understand.

"What?"

"You'll know in a while, write the script well, if the movie is not good, I won't give you a reward next time!"

Before Zheng Yi could figure it out, Chen Yanan pushed the door in, his face was like a peach blossom, and his momentum was like a spring breeze.

Obviously in a good mood.

"Zheng Yi, the budget is done, do you want to drink, have a drink at night?"

"No, it won't." Zheng Yi excused himself and thought to himself at the same time.

Could it be that this little rich woman in the magic capital is an old fairy?

Is this a blessing for me, or is she a prophet?

"Now that the budget has passed, let's look at Mr. Shuren's script."

"As soon as the script is approved, the project will start immediately, and I will do the preliminary preparations first."

Chen Yanan was very capable and immediately began to arrange work.

"Since it's okay, then I'll take my leave." Zheng Yi got up, the budget was ready, then he had to hurry back to write the script.

"Okay, it's going to be very busy, rest well, and get ready for battle."

Zheng Yi was just about to leave, but Zhang Yue ran over and pulled his arm.

"Don't forget to help me get Mr. Shuren's autograph."

"Okay." Zheng Yi thought to himself, he had to go back to practice first.

Not only should the signature not be too ugly, but it must also not be recognized as your own writing.

There should be a lot of signature requirements in the future, so you have to prepare in advance.

But these can be practiced slowly, and the top priority is still the script.

He took a ride and went back to school, ready to go to the library to continue the battle.

On the other hand, Chen Yanan was not idle, not long after she returned to the office, she contacted the assistant directors, lighting, and action directors who were filming "Psycho" before......

After arranging these, she thought for a while, then got up and went straight to the chairman's office.

"What do you say, Shuren wants to invest in this new film?" A few minutes later, the chairman learned the news from her.

"So he's very confident."

"That's right, otherwise I wouldn't have been so anxious to increase the budget just now, but I didn't expect this matter to be solved so easily."

The chairman almost died of laughter when he remembered this.

Ai Cai is not afraid of heaven and earth, he is not good at beauty, he is not good at gambling, he is not greedy for food and wine, and he has almost no weaknesses.

But only for his daughter, he is called a thousand obedient.

There was a talent show in the company before, and when her daughter watched the show, she just pointed to a trainee and said something.

"How can he sing and dance basketball?"

As a result, the next day, he "retired due to illness".

The chairman couldn't figure out how Shuren grasped Ai Cai's only weakness.

"Since he is so confident, the probability of making money in this film is still quite large."

"And now that the board of directors has approved a plan to increase the budget, there is no need for Shuren to invest."

Chen Yanan shook his head: "I think it's necessary." ”

"Huh?" The chairman was stunned: "Let's talk about it." ”

"It is precisely because Shuren is confident that this investment will most likely make money, so it is even more important for him to invest."

"It's about making him money!"

"Only by letting the tree man get a higher income, will he continue to cooperate with our black cat."

"In the short term, we will most likely give a film share."

"But in the long run, we'll get a very competitive script creator!"

"Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain."

"Those who do not seek eternity are not enough to seek a moment!"

"I think that having a tree man is equivalent to owning half of the Chinese horror film and television!"

Chen Yanan's eyes were firm and full of confidence.

……

At this time, half of the country was working hard in the library.

The story of "Here Comes the Grim Reaper" is not too complicated, but it is much more laborious to write than "Psycho".

There are more scenes, more characters, and more events.

Those who have watched this film know that one of the major features of "The Grim Reaper is Coming" is the variety of characters and the way of death with big brains.

Just describing these scenes and the details of the death is enough for Zheng Yi to drink a pot.

What's more, each character also has its own specific personality and character performance, which must be clearly written.

The script is much more detailed than the novel.

In fact, the story of "The Grim Reaper" was first the script material of the famous American drama "The X-Files", and was finally adapted by screenwriter and director Huang Yiyu into what it is today.

By the way, this Huang Yiyu is also the director of the famous American drama "American Horror Story" in the underworld, and he is an old master of horror themes.

There is an old saying in China, "The king of Hades wants you to die in the third watch, and will never leave you until the fifth watch."

And "The Grim Reaper is Coming" is about how a group of guys who violate the book of life and death will be harvested.

In each episode, the protagonist is able to escape a deadly catastrophe by predicting the prophet.

At this time, the Lord of Yama in the Netherworld Mansion looked at it: "Hey, why can't I match the account of this book of life and death?" ”

"Rub, someone gave me a whole job!"

"Hurry up and find a way to kill them, and the provincial ones will be known to deduct the bonus."

That's about it.

This is a typical fusion of Western and Eastern values, after all, Huang Yiyu is of Chinese descent and understands Eastern metaphysical culture.

At the same time, this film can be said to be full of all kinds of details, the numbers, music, scenes, and lines in the film all hint at the fate of each character.

This is also a characteristic of Asian culture, and Western people can't do this kind of delicate work.

But this sheer amount of detail also makes it more difficult to write.

Fortunately, the crossing comes with a memory buff, so that he can remember everything clearly.

Don't ask why you have a BUFF, ask is a certain feature.

He only wrote the script for "Psycho" for one day last time.

And this time "Death is Coming", he wrote it for a week!

Chen Yanan and Zhang Yue are in a hurry!

"Sister Nan, the tree man won't have a difficult birth, right?"

"You don't trust your idol so much?"

"It's not that I don't trust it, it's just that geniuses sometimes get deflated." Zhang Yuechou ate two more bowls of lunch.

"I think the tree man is going to have a difficult birth as you said."

"Either you're holding back your big move!"

Chen Yanan said lightly: "I prefer to believe that he is holding back his big move." ”

"So let's be calm now."

"Wait patiently for ......"

Wow......

"It's coming!"

When Chen Yanan saw the arrival of the new email, he opened the file excitedly, and the mouse almost flew off.

Zhang Yue: Didn't you say that you should be calm?

"It's coming, it's coming, it's coming."

"Satsuki, let's take a look."

"Okay!"

The only person Chen Yanan trusts 100% is Zhang Yue, and only the two of them can see confidential documents like Shuren's script.

When I opened the file, I found that the text of the script this time was more than five times the content of "Psycho".

"It seems that the content should be very rich."

At this time, Chen Yanan no longer had the apprehension when he first read the script of Shuren, but he was a little uneasy.

After all, an investment of 20 million+ is rare in the horror film industry.

And this movie is different from "Psycho", although it is still not a theatrical movie, but this new film will be charged!

Can the cost be recovered?

How much can I earn after recovering my costs?

These are the top priorities of this film, and they are also related to Black Cat Video's future investment in the fear channel.

After all, only when there is money to be made can we vigorously develop!

The two watched the story carefully in front of the computer.

"'The Grim Reaper is Coming.'"

"That's a straightforward name."

In Chen Yanan's imagination, this story should be a film with death as the protagonist and from his point of view.

But after watching it for ten minutes, she didn't notice the existence of the Grim Reaper.

But none of that matters.

Because this story has fascinated her deeply.

Both of them clasped their hands, and their nerves continued to tense as the plot progressed.

Stimulate!

Just looking at the text is exciting!

If it is made into a feature film, it will definitely make the audience addicted.

Chen Yanan thought secretly in his heart, and then was stunned.

Alas?

How could I describe a horror film as exciting, enjoyable?

But......

She looked at the script again, and the scenes depicted in words were inexplicably refreshing in addition to making people's scalps tingle.

In general, the dead in horror movies either click a knife or cut their throats and arms.

At most, it is eaten alive by demons.

But the character in "The Grim Reaper is Coming", the one who died is called a wonderful.

"This story is so powerful, the tree man teacher is awesome!" Zhang Yue looked fast, and was already biting his hand excitedly at this time.

"The fans who are the teachers of the tree man are so happy to be able to see such a good story!"

"Sister Nan, Sister Nan, I want to watch it again from the beginning."

As usual, Chen Yanan will never watch the script repeatedly.

She believes that in her eyes, whether it is good or not, she knows it once.

But today she didn't say a word, and started the second brush with Zhang Yue.

It's not that I don't understand.

I haven't seen enough!

Chen Yanan thought to himself, why don't I ask Zheng Yi to bring me a tree man's signature next time.

Because from today onwards, I'm also a fan of him!
