After signing the contract, Lu Ping'an sat down and chatted with Bob Shayer, the screenwriter, and Krystac, the other protagonist of the movie.

The next thing is that Lu Ping'an adapts the script and then starts to prepare.

A month will be very hasty for other screenwriters, but it will not be a big problem for Lu Ping'an.

With the system, think about it carefully, and you can get it done in a few days.

In fact, he has now decided on the script structure, because he knows the script beforehand, and there are many movies to draw on.

For example, the big scenes of action scenes have been used for reference, and there are two big ones for reference.

There is also the Chinese "triad" in the film, this has to be changed, how to do it if you insult China.

In short, the overall script is already very similar, and the rest is to fill in the details.

This will be more with Cheng Long's team in the next month.

So the next thing is to wait a month and hand in the script.

"Lu, the production cost can still be saved this time, of course, the quality of the film still has to be guaranteed, you know what I mean."

Before it was over, Bob instructed Lu Ping'an.

It's understandable that people are the bosses.

If you were Lu Ping'an, I would think the same way.

"Don't worry, my sign, it works."

Doing big things at a small cost, that's the signboard.

But in practice, Lu Ping'an will naturally not save him money.

It's just that you don't overspend your best efforts.

After Bob finished speaking, Christak on the side spoke:

"Lu, do you have to make sure that I know my role, I'm the highest-paid actor."

The black buddy looked serious.

Speaking of this black buddy, Lu Ping'an's impression of him is that this is a typical black American.

Except for money, he doesn't recognize anything else, and he has a huge skin, even if he leaves the peak series, it is basically nothing.

This time he came to star in the movie, and Bob Chayer said that he gave "2+2", a very high price, and the crew had the highest salary.

Bob is also very helpless, if you don't look for him, you can't do it, a classic duo.

Lu Ping'an and Cheng Long don't care about this.

The two have already taken the distribution rights, which can already make up for a large part of the benefits.

Moreover, the original time-space movie could not be released in the mainland, but now that there is Lu Ping'an, it will naturally be different.

It's just on the bright side, it makes the black buddies feel that they are bulls and are the boss of the crew.

Lu Ping'an was not stunned by this at all, and he had a direct showdown: "Our interests are the same, my task is to let you and Jackie exchange opportunities again, it's good to have this attitude, if you get a high salary, I will fire you directly." ”

Everyone has box office dividends, although Lu Ping'an and Cheng Long's box office dividends are only 10%, but they do have the same interests.

The black buddy shook his head directly after hearing this, and then the characteristic accent popped out: "No, you won't do it, Jackie and I are friends, and you are only the director." ”

"I have project ownership, don't you know?"

"I don't know."

The black buddy looked at Bob Shaye for the first time.

Bob Shayer didn't speak, just nodded.

The black buddy said very interestingly on the spot: "Okay lu, I know you are very powerful, I like to watch your movies very much, I will fully cooperate with you, but you can't encroach on my rights, my role must be guaranteed." ”

This black buddy's habits are indeed a bit straight, and when it comes to the wind, it is unpleasant, but the principle is conservative and still resolute.

Lu Ping'an patted him on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, I will start adapting the script these days, your task is to exercise well, now you are a little fat, you have to practice a little, and then cooperate with the early publicity." ”

The black buddies were very happy after hearing this, and said very proudly: "Don't worry, I have left all this year for our movies." ”

Isn't it because you don't have a show to take?

Lu Ping'an didn't say anything, but simply expressed his gratitude.

Then he continued to discuss the pre-publicity with Bob Shayer.

The early publicity is also very simple, as I said before, that is, around the topic of "Cheng Long is old".

"List all the injuries that Cheng Long has suffered in his career, and the main thing is the word 'legend'."

"Play the emotional card and let the guys who always buy discs but don't contribute to the box office go into the cinema."

"Everyone owes Cheng Long a movie ticket, and if you don't watch it, you'll be old, yes, just follow this line of thought, lower expectations, play the emotional card, and then suppress it first and then raise it."

"Don't worry about whether it will be counterproductive, because age can't deceive people, sooner or later, and the movie scene, I already have an idea, it will definitely explode, let's talk about it after I sort it out."

"How to describe it? When the movie is about to be released, use this sentence: 'This time, I want to take Cheng Long and Kryžaker to play a death that I have to buy a ticket to watch it!' ’”

That's all it takes.

Bob Shayer's eyes lit up: "What is it like?" ”

Lu Ping'an said with a smile: "You'll know when the time comes." ”

Then he turned his head to the black buddy on the side and said, "Buy enough insurance." ”

The black buddy was stunned, and then hugged his head directly: NO!!

After a while, Cheng Long, who was far away in Xiangjiang, received a call from the black buddy, and then soon, Lu Ping'an received a call from Cheng Long: "Ping'an, you want to play us to death?" Hahaha."

"Brother Long, don't worry, it's just a propaganda method, and it won't really play with your life, it's the one I said before, used to scare the old black."

"That's exciting enough."

"yes, I've prepared at least two of these scenes."

"That's still playing with your life, hahaha."

"It's okay, it's not difficult to shoot, by the way, you communicate more with that black buddy these days, accumulate more of his way of speaking and jokes, and it will be useful when the time comes."

Cheng Long reacted quickly after hearing this: "Ready to change the personality? ”

"Right"

In the original "Spike 3", there is actually a certain gap between the performance of the two protagonists.

The character of the Chinese police detective played by Cheng Long has not developed at all compared to the past, and several fight scenes are tired.

And the black buddy MJ imitation show and song and dance performance, many raps, pickled girls are all laughs, in addition to kung fu, and he also has a brotherly righteousness.

It's hard for Krytark not to steal the show.

As for the reason, Lu Ping'an now feels that this is basically won by the black buddies themselves.

Just like the request he made with Lu Ping'an before.

And Cheng Long is obviously not the opponent of the black buddies in this regard, no matter how thick-skinned he is, no one else is thick.

This also once again confirms from one side that Cheng Long's development in Hollywood has indeed reached the twilight road.

Otherwise, the director wouldn't really play like this.

Having said that, since the personalities of the two are unbalanced, how can they be changed?

It's very simple, keep the original script "Brotherhood" unchanged, and change the character of "Chinese Police Detective" slightly.

After all, this is the third part, and many years have passed in the movie.

If it's still the same as the first two parts, one has a disgusting mouth, and the other has a rigid and serious face, this will have no growth.

Therefore, the black buddies do not need to change as the original script, and the Chinese police detectives have also become more flexible, can joke, and can learn that the black buddies will play mouth cannons, which is more naughty, but retains the seriousness of the Chinese police detectives, such as mouth cannons still can't beat black buddies.

At the same time, the character changes also involve the foreshadowing of the movie to increase the watchability.

In short, the two influence each other.

But in the final Gao Dynasty scene, one is still mainly responsible for magic output, and the other is mainly responsible for physical output, and the role is reversed a little in the middle, so that the "brotherhood" and "golden partner" are interpreted more reasonably.

After listening to this, Cheng Long directly agreed: "Yes, you can come according to your ideas, and I will cooperate." ”

"Okay, I'll show you the script after it is changed in a few days."

"OK, you're busy first"
