Chapter 198: Rebooting "Daughter Country"
"Falling Leaves Return to the Roots" was cut in its entirety for 115 minutes.
In fact, the plot of "Falling Leaves Return to the Roots" is quite simple.
It was the actor who came home with the body of his dead worker.
Along the way, I met some people and things to satirize and praise some things in contemporary Chinese society.
But when this film was sent, it still put forward revised comments on some sentence patterns and bridges.
Cai Cunyi revised it three more times after getting the opinion.
It wasn't until the 4th version that it was finalized, and the final release time was 115 minutes.
"This time, we can make our publicity bigger, send some invitations to some companies and artists who know each other in the circle, and see how many people can be invited to come over when the time comes!"
Song Ci's expectations for this "Falling Leaves Return to the Roots" are still quite high.
The tone of this film is actually more inclined to literary films, but its style of commercial films is also quite obvious.
So if it works well, it is still very promising to get a relatively high box office and make a big profit.
"Mr. Liu, as our absolute actor, is actually hard to say whether his box office appeal will work or not." Mimi said.
Cai Cunyi said: "So we have considered this matter before, every guest actor is well-known, and you are like our boss who also made a cameo appearance as a young cyclist!" ”
Song Ci laughed twice and said, "Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you to operate!" I'll just show my face at the premiere at the end. ”
held a nearly two-hour meeting with Cai Cunyi's team, and everyone gave the promotional materials of the entire film together, and Song Ci directly became a hands-off shopkeeper.
When I came home in the evening, I watched my dad and sister make the latest video together, and the food in this issue is quite simple, it is called mapo tofu.
But if you want to make tofu particularly delicious, it still takes some effort.
But fortunately, thanks to my father's many years of cooking, it is not a problem to win mapo tofu.
"Dad, your tofu is really good!" Song Ci rattled two bowls of rice and praised him with a thumbs up.
"Isn't it? Is this true or false! Dad said this, but with a smile on his face.
After eating with his family, Song Ci's phone rang again, and it was Mimi calling.
It is also an invitation to some TV series in the circle, first-class productions, and even the theme song of top S-level movies.
And this time, Mimi reported three projects to Song Ci.
"Let the other party send the script over first, I'll take a look, if there is inspiration to write it, write it, if you can't write it, forget it!"
Song Lanjun looked at Song Ci's serious arrangement of work, and said with emotion:
"It's really not easy to make a lot of money, there is no time to rest at all! It's almost 9:00 p.m., and the phone is ringing! ”
Song Ci put down his mobile phone and walked over, helping Song Lanjun adjust the position of the camera: "Who said it wasn't." ”
At this time, my mother brought a plate of fruit to a few people, then glanced at Song Ci, and mentioned intentionally or unintentionally:
"Some people, now that they are just making money, they don't want to let our old couple hold their grandchildren, right?"
Song Ci is also in his early 30s, and the boys and children in the village as big as him are already married.
Now there is only one Song Ci left.
Song Lanjun just pursed his lips and smiled when he heard this.
Dad was also seriously fiddling with his plate, and he didn't speak.
Song Ci scratched his head.
He originally wanted to say that he was also in a relationship now.
But suddenly a few pretty figures flashed in his mind, so he said haha: "Don't worry, there are a lot of people in our circle who are married at the age of forty or fifty!" ”
My mother suddenly glared at her eyes and said, "You fart, women in their forties and fifties are all menopausal, will they still be able to reproduce when the time comes?" ”
Song Ci: "......"
At night.
Song Ci sat in front of the computer and finally sorted out the full text of "Two Song Fengyun Seven", which can be regarded as a finalized draft.
On the second day, it was sent directly to Zhu Jia, the editor-in-chief of Chang'an Publishing House.
As soon as he received Song Ci's manuscript, Zhu Jia immediately arranged for several editors to start reviewing the manuscript overnight.
The original text of Song Ci's manuscript has been written perfectly.
The main thing that a few people are reviewing now is actually to see if there is any content in the text that is not suitable for publication, and to see if there is anything that needs to be revised.
A girl with thick lenses pushed the frame, and she had already watched almost 60% of the content of "Two Songs".
At this moment, he took a sip of the water cup and drank the water inside, and breathed a long sigh of relief, and then he talked with everyone with emotion:
"Sometimes the gap between people and people is really bigger than the difference between people and dogs, and our boss's article is simply godly!"
Another editor answered: "I really didn't expect that this time the protagonist was actually replaced by a woman." ”
The girl hiding behind the thick lenses suddenly stared at her, and she was not convinced:
"What did you not expect? When the two Song Fengyun wrote the 7th part, it was time for a woman to appear as the protagonist. ”
Zhu Jia was also on the side, and at this moment, in his mind, there were several top-level lyrics in "Two Song Fengyun Seven" hovering, wandering between his cerebral cortex, making him constantly secrete dopamine to enjoy literature.
He couldn't help but take out his Weibo and posted:
"Today, the boss sent the 7th part to our editorial office. I haven't eaten, I've watched almost 70%! Let me reveal it to you a little, it is still the same level as before, and there are very huge surprises! ”
This Weibo immediately attracted fans of Song Ci.
Usually Zhu Jia posts a Weibo comment and likes, adding up to dozens.
But now it has been hit by Song Ci's fans to more than a thousand.
The number of likes directly broke 10,000.
“!!!! Editor: Teacher, are you talking about Song Ci's "Two Song Fengyun Seven" has been written? ”
"Damn, let's see what I've found!"
"I'll go, the two Song Fengyunqi are finally coming out, in fact, I want to see the martial arts stories of Song Ci more than the two Song Fengyunqi!"
"I heard that Song Ci has a movie to shoot in the second half of this year, and I'm looking forward to it so much!"
Zhu Jia didn't expect Song Ci's fans to react so much.
Seeing that it was now hot, he was a little panicked in his heart, and quickly deleted this Weibo again.
He was afraid that Song Ci would have some publicity plan here, and he would expose it in advance when the time came.
After deleting it, his whole heart was still pounding.
chatted with his family, and the family was also comforting him.
Zhu Jia was even worried about whether Song Ci would blame him,
With such a mood, after being nervous for two days, Zhu Jia found that Song Ci didn't seem to care about this matter, or maybe even Song Ci didn't know that there was such a thing as him posting on Weibo, so he was completely relieved.
Soon, the two Song Fengyunqi sent it above.
In less than a week, the approved edition number was approved and it was ready for official publication.
So the publishing house and the printing house worked overtime to start the printing work.
On the other side, Song Ci flew to Shangjing City, ready to participate in the premiere of "Falling Leaves Return to the Roots".
This time, the premiere of "Falling Leaves Return to the Roots" in Shangjing City was considered by many parties.
One of the main reasons is that some artist friends have been invited, and if you look at everyone's itinerary, it is the most suitable for everyone's itinerary in Shangjing.
At present, there are more than 50 artists who have been scheduled to come to the scene.
Of course, these include Tang Shi, Song Hongdou and others who are familiar with Song Ci.
Li Siyu and Gu Jinghong are really incompatible because they have work, and they won't go to the scene.
Managers of major cinema chains were also invited.
In the drama "Falling Leaves Return to the Roots", Song Ci's company is of course the largest investor.
However, in order to get some cheap in terms of cinemas, two cinemas were also introduced as co-investors.
The largest of them is, of course, Yida Cinema.
The second is Qianxing Pictures.
This is the largest industry under the hands of Qianxing Entertainment Company, one of the top ten entertainment companies.
There are also some directors and producers who are familiar with Song Ci, and they are also present.
Song Ci and Cai Cunyi, as well as Liu Zhenfeng, the star of "Falling Leaves Return to the Roots", stood at the door of the theater together, greeting the guests.
At this time, Liao Jie ran over cautiously and said something in Song Ci's ear.
Song Ci nodded, and a look of understanding appeared on his face.
Cai Cunyi asked what the situation was.
Song Ci looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, it's just that the rules of the main competition of the King of Singers Contest have come out." ”
Liu Zhenfeng on the side raised his eyebrows and said, "What kind of rule?" ”
Liao Jie hurriedly explained to a few people.
It's the rules of the King's Tournament, and it's pretty simple.
Whoever draws the same theme is the opponent.
The winner advances, and the loser is eliminated.
Until the quarterfinals, we will hold the final finals together.
Naturally, the vote was cast by the audience in 13 states across the country.
The rules of the whole game are relatively simple, but the schedule is very long.
The competition starts in September, and the final finals will not be held until before the Chinese New Year.
After listening to the rules, Cai Cunyi said happily:
"Before, we were still worried that the schedule of the King of Singers Contest would affect our filming of "I Am Not the God of Medicine", but now I think it will not have much impact, and when the time comes, let's adjust our shooting time reasonably according to your competition schedule."
Song Ci also said: "This rule is simple, but it also increases the chance!" ”
A few people were chatting, and director Lu Song, who was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, walked over.
He smiled and hugged Song Ci, Cai Cunyi, and Liu Zhenfeng, and then said with emotion:
"I want to see how well your book is written today, and I was able to invite our teacher Liu out, followed you for a few months, and worked hard to make a film!"
Liu Zhenfeng straightened his chest slightly, and his old face showed a proud and complacent look:
"Director Lu, don't be unconvinced, Song Ci's script is awesome, don't you know, when I read this script for the first time, I was so moved that I wanted to cry!"
Lu Song said "oh" in surprise, looking forward to the movie "Falling Leaves Return to the Roots".
Suddenly, he thought of something, the smile on his face became a little bigger, and he said to Song Ci:
"In the past two years, the progress of domestic special effects has been quite good, and your fame is getting higher and higher, so the book "Daughter Country" you mentioned to me before, I think it can be put on the agenda!"
Song Ci didn't expect that after such a long time, Lu Song could still remember the first time he came to him, in fact, it was to promote the script of his daughter's country, and even the whole story of Journey to the West.
Cai Cunyi and Liu Zhenfeng looked at Song Ci and Lu Song very curiously, obviously not knowing that there was such a little story between the two of them.
Song Ci laughed and patted Lu Song's shoulder and said:
"Director Lu, you better go in first, let's talk about this story in detail!"
So Lu Song waved his hand at Song Ci and walked into the movie theater happily.
At this time, Cai Cunyi looked at Song Ci with bright eyes, and hurriedly asked:
"You've actually finished writing the script of your daughter's country, I don't know if you're honored to be able to take a look? Ha ha! ”
Although Liu Zhenfeng on the side did not speak, the excitement in his eyes was also overflowing.
Song Ci waved his hand lightly, and then asked Liu Zhenfeng: "Teacher Liu, do you actually know the story of your daughter's country?" ”
Liu Zhenfeng laughed: "I like the song "Acacia" very much! ”
Song Ci suddenly showed a clear look. At this time, it can be regarded as a coincidence, and Song Hongdou, the original singer of "Acacia", has just arrived.
She is wearing a pink dress with a ball head and a light makeup painted on her face today.
It looks like it's been well-dressed.
The whole person looks very cute and cute.
She stood in front of Song Ci with a face as delicate as a peach blossom, blinked her eyes and said, "I'm not late, am I?" ”
Song Ci smiled: "Of course it's not too late, we were just talking about the song "Acacia", isn't your original singer coming?" ”
Song Hongdou hadn't seen Song Ci for a while, and there was some vague longing in his eyes.
But at this occasion, she also knew that it was inconvenient to disturb Song Ci.
So after a few people exchanged a few words, she walked into the theater.
As soon as she sat down on the seat set for her, Director Lu Song walked over to her: "Hello Teacher Song Hongdou! ”
Suddenly called "teacher" by Lu Song, Song Hongdou was directly clever, quickly stood up, shook hands with the other party and said:
"Alas, Director Lu doesn't dare to let you call me teacher, just call me red bean!"
Lu Song laughed twice, and then said bluntly:
"There's something,...... I don't know if you're interested. I want to make a daughter country with Song Ci. Didn't you and Song Ci shoot the MV for the song "Acacia" before? In it, one of you is the king of the daughter country, and the other is Tang Seng, I think the image of the two of you is tailor-made for these two roles......"
Lu Song's words made Song Hongdou's eyes light up when he heard it: "No problem, no problem, I like it very much, it's my acting skills, ah, it's almost equal to no ......"
