Chapter 109: Change the Script! Koi work!
Fang Yu escaped from Cai Zhuoyan's bombardment, and just got out of the bathroom, he saw screenwriters Yuan Jinlin and Chen Musheng walking in the corridor, listening to the ending of the script.
"Everyone must rejoice, even if it is a tragedy, it must be the death of all the wicked, and no one can be left." Yuan Jinlin expressed his thoughts.
In the play, several rich second generations led by Azu are all masters, and if these people are saved, then according to normal logic, their lives in prison will not be bad.
In this place of Xiangjiang, there is no death penalty.
If according to the director's current statement, let Chen Guorong, played by Chenglong, send these criminals to the prison cell, then the ending is too detached from reality.
Yuan Jinlin didn't want to output so many personal opinions, and he didn't want to consider whether the law was sound, but he also wanted to express the basic underlying logic clearly.
In the plot at the beginning of the film, he set up a poor man who took risks because of buying financial products, the current society was affected by the financial crisis, and many families were ruined, but those rich people at the top still lived a chic life, because they held power, connections, and everything in the world.
"Give ordinary people some hope! All criminals must die. ”
"Alright then!"
Chen Musheng just felt that the image of Azu could be left behind, leaving an introduction for the next part or something, Mrs. Fu likes to watch him act, if he dies
"Huh? Small side? Going to the bathroom? ”
"Uh-huh!"
Fang Yu greeted the two main creators of the movie awkwardly.
"Do you have any thoughts on the script, suggestions?" Chen Musheng asked.
"It's all good, but I feel that there are fewer comedy elements in the dragon style, and it's a bit bitter and hateful. Ah, fairy tales! Childlike words! Children are talking nonsense! ”
Fang Yu smiled awkwardly to cover up his statement, but this was also one of the reasons why the box office of the new police story was so popular with all he knew.
Although this film is starring Chenglong, the whole film is spent in a heavy sad tone, and it is very depressing to watch, and it is completely used as an ordinary actor by Chenglong.
And the action design is okay, there are two high-rise dangerous scenes, and there is a scene where the bus stops at high speed in the style of a dragon, but after watching the whole film, I always feel a little bland, maybe the dragon raises the audience's taste, and if you don't work hard, you feel a little too boiled water, and there is no taste at all.
Fang Yu's joking remark reminded the two main creators of the truth.
In fact, the starring candidate they proposed at the beginning was not Chenglong, but because the schedule was suitable and action scenes were involved, they considered Chenglong, but they didn't expect this police film to enter Chenglong's eyes, and they talked about it in a few simple sentences, and even specially rubbed the popularity of the IP of the police story, and gave it the name of "New Police Story".
At the end of the day, this film isn't a work in the same series as Police Stories.
In terms of the characteristics of the actors themselves, the main creator didn't think about how to design them, the original four, Chenglong was either the director, or he output many good ideas for the formation of the script, making the film a Chenglong-style movie, and this new police story, Chenglong is completely here to earn sky-high salaries, and basically didn't say much.
Not surprisingly, without Fang Yu's joining, this film can only be regarded as an ordinary police and bandit action movie.
If it weren't for Master Zhang's words, Fang Yu would be familiar.
But Master Zhang said that he was a koi
Fang Yu didn't even think about whether he could pull the box office to what height, at least he wanted to subtly put forward some opinions, so that they wouldn't take the old road of inevitably hitting the streets.
His joke made the two main creators break out in a cold sweat!
Truly! They didn't think that the starring role of this film was Chenglong!
They are just constantly improving the script, think about it carefully, this film doesn't match Chenglong at all!
No matter how you talk about dragon action comedy, there will always be some funny elements incorporated, and looking at the whole script, the whole movie is a tragic film with an action movie shell.
At the beginning, the protagonist was framed by his colleagues, and in the ten-person team of the Flying Tigers, only Chenglong survived.
Back at the police station, everyone across the board was alienated from Chenglong because of his dereliction of duty that led to the death of so many colleagues.
For a year, Chenglong, a policeman, drank heavily all day long, was robbed and beaten by thugs, and did not say a word.
In the end, my girlfriend was bombed and almost killed, and the final design ended in disfigurement.
After watching the whole play, this is completely different from the previous Chenglong comedies, originally Chenglong movies were all-age, but now they directly kill the young market.
If Fang Yu didn't have Master Zhang's words, no one would listen to his advice.
He only has supporting role experience in two movies, does he know six?
The problem lies with Master Zhang.
Koi, perhaps, is inadvertently spreading its good luck around.
If you catch that
"I think what he said is not unreasonable, we may really be too bitter and bitter, now this time period, everyone is having a very bad time, the property market has just recovered a little, we make such a depressing film" Yuan Jinlin, as a screenwriter, doesn't want to carry all the pots on his back, he thinks his idea is good, but now after being reminded, he also takes into account the feedback of reality.
The Red Chamber is good, but compared with Journey to the West, there are still more people who watch Journey to the West.
Literature aside, who wouldn't want to watch something lighthearted?
"I just feel it. After reading the script, I can't stand the face of Brother Chenglong, the character of Leslie Chan is a bit miserable haha! When I'm talking nonsense! When I'm talking nonsense! ”
"You're not talking nonsense, I think it's a little too painful, but I'm not embarrassed to mention it." In the bathroom, he walked out of the bathroom with his pants on, and it was the protagonist of this film, Chenglong.
He had been eavesdropping in the toilet for a long time, and he wanted to hide, but when he heard that Fang Yu's thoughts were the same as his own, he simply walked out.
At present, four police stories have been filmed, and each of these four has many witty and humorous points.
For example, the police chief played by Dong Biao who always likes to pit people, and the female advocate Manyu who has been pitted very badly in every film, but is also very funny.
Their role in the movie is like Zhu Bajie in Journey to the West, you take the dragon as a senior brother, you can go to the sky and enter the earth, you can go down to the five seas to catch turtles, and you can go to the underworld to change the book of life and death.
But Lingsun Monkey is good, but it's not as funny as Zhu Bajie.
The series of police stories has been filmed four times, and the new police story, as the fifth part of selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, has thrown away those funny elements and has become a revenge drama.
If the box office can be high, then it's hell!
"If you can. Director, can we think of more light-hearted elements to add to it! We can't waste our star, he's a dragon. It's okay to play a tragic policeman, but if the film is so depressing, it's a bit like Zhou Xingchi going to play a tragedy, which will be unacceptable! ”
"Of course. I think the current script is very good, but it's a bit of a waste of the myth of the movie Chenglong. ”
Hearing Fang Yu praise himself so sincerely, without even the slightest flattery on his face, Chenglong's eyes turned red when he heard it!
He knew that Fang Yu was his fan, but he didn't expect Fang Yu to call himself a movie myth
Also, Fang Yu, as a person in 2030, as a person who basically wanders on the edge of the industry, went to see Chenglong, he was already wearing a thick filter, and now he went back to 03 and looked at this middle-aged Chenglong who could still fight for a few more years, and he was full of emotion for a while, and the Oscar Lifetime Achievement Award is not something anyone can win.
A few years later, Chenglong couldn't move anymore and began to produce a large number of bad movies, and at that time there was nowhere to watch them if he wanted to, so he could only watch his classic old movies repeatedly.
"I don't dare to be a myth because you have been in the film industry for a few years earlier, I am very optimistic about you! In the future, domestic movies will be handed over to you young people! Chenglong patted Fang Yu's arm, no matter how he looked at Fang Yu now, he felt extremely kind, the koi character was still his own iron fan, if he didn't take care of it, then he had been doing it for nothing all these years.
Originally, they were going to start filming the movie, but because of Fang Yu's few words, the main creative team began to brainstorm, saying that they would have to rely on the film to ride the dragon again, in the final analysis, they can't afford the cost of 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and they must take everything into account.
According to the analysis of the original movie of Riding the Dragon on the Street, this person really can't make a tragedy, and he will lose money if he shoots.
The work of the whole group was put on hold, and the four police stories were turned out, watched collectively, and then collectively conceived and added funny elements and dragon riding elements, and moved the popular "New Police Story" to the "Police Story" series.
"Ahh I wonder if I should add a scene from Furniture City? Wasn't there a representative of IKEA at the wine table that day? I heard that it was because they asked for product placement for too long and didn't talk about it, so why don't we use IKEA Furniture City again if we want to ride a dragon-style movie? In this way, the implantation is also available, and the dilemma we are facing is also cleverly resolved, and there is more fun in the furniture city, so I want to think about it. ”
"Good! That's a great suggestion! ”
Chenglong was the first to stand up and shook Fang Yu's hand excitedly.
Fang Yu was stunned, he didn't expect Uncle Long to be so excited.
Azu on the side saw that Chenglong was making a look, and he also accosted: "Ah, I think this is reasonable!" ”
Fang Yu's suggestion, Cai Zhuoyan heard it and was also a strong cheer, "It's great, it's great", I don't know what she thinks.
Because of Fang Yu's words, the main creative team decided to go to the Furniture City that day, and Fang Yu had nothing to do, so he followed.
What he didn't expect was that Cai Zhuoyan also followed.
Fang Yu and Cai Zhuoyan sat in the same car, he was in the passenger seat, and Cai Zhuoyan was in the back.
"Hey, do you like to eat Rui Iodine meatballs?"
Fang Yu was still looking at the scenery, and Cai Zhuoyan pushed a passenger seat in the back row, and Fang Yu knew that he was asking himself.
"Huh? Tell me? ”
"Yes! Otherwise, I asked the driver? ”
"I haven't eaten it, I don't know." Fang Yu replied coldly.
"Oh, do you like mashed potatoes?"
"I prefer to eat Chinese food."
"Oooh. So do you like to eat tiramisu? ”
Fang Yu was a little helpless, and looked back at Cai Zhuoyan, "What do you want to do?" ”
"No, I'm just bored in the crew! The two of us have so many rival plays, don't we need to cultivate feelings? ”
"I'm a professional." Fang Yu turned around, and Yu Guang saw that Cai Zhuoyan's eyes in the central rearview mirror were red, and he reluctantly added, "Then let's accompany you to find a feeling."
Cai Zhuoyan's face changed instantly, "Okay! Then let's go straight to IKEA's meatballs! And mashed potatoes! And tiramisu! ”
Fang Yu didn't know what to say.
Cai Zhuoyan is even a year older than Fang Yu, but this woman always looks like a high school girl under the age of eighteen.
As for emotional issues, because she has received a Western-style education, her thoughts have been formed, and she does not have the kind of Chinese subtlety in her mind, and she has always boldly pursued love, so she was called the queen of scandal by the Hong Kong media tabloids, and her gossip has never been interrupted from beginning to end.
Today's play, if the driver's mouth is looser and explodes, Fang Yu may also be able to "dip into the light" and appear on the gossip cover of the tabloid with Cai Zhuoyan.
This woman will fall in love with whoever she is filming with.
fell in love with Zhang Weijian and Zhang Weijian, fell in love with Zheng Yijian with Zheng Yijian, fell in love with Xie Tingfeng with Xie Tingfeng, and fell in love with Zheng Chongji with Zheng Chongji.
There are too many to count
When he came to the IKEA restaurant, Cai Zhuoyan ordered the food with ease, "Do you have any taboos?" ”
"No, you can order whatever you want."
"Well, I've got this one out of place! That's all! She suddenly stopped talking, and she didn't know what to do.
The two took their seats, and Cai Zhuoyan found a topic.
"When I first arrived in Xiangjiang, the nanny of the family would always take the meatballs here to eat at noon, I once tasted them, and I thought they were delicious! Then I followed her and would come to eat once a day in the afternoon, but unfortunately now that I am busy, I rarely have the opportunity to come. ”
When she spoke, she lowered her sunglasses, exposed her eyes, and was still pouting intentionally, very few women, and very cute, but it was not ruled out that she was suspected of pretending to be cute.
"The stuff here should be cheap for you." Fang Yu looked at Cai Zhuoyan a little strangely.
"You don't understand! In those Michelin-starred restaurants, everything is a small portion! For the sake of image, I eat a little bit every time and say that I am full, but in fact, my stomach is empty at all! ”
"When you come here, you don't have to pay attention to their strange eyes~ Everyone is here to fill their stomachs, regardless of whether they are high or low~"
The first thing that came up was a meatball, Cai Zhuoyan asked for two forks and handed one to Fang Yu.
"Come on! Try it! ”
Fang Yu ate one, not to mention how good the taste is, at least the materials here are sufficient, after all, the price is here, it is not delicious, it is not too unpalatable, it is very mediocre.
Seeing that Fang Yu's interest was not high, Cai Zhuoyan stuck out his tongue, "Slightly! Don't be a picky eater! ”
She's a little familiar, as if she's known each other for a long time, as if they're a couple dating here.
Relive a life, live one more day to earn a day, Fang Yu doesn't have any worldly thoughts in his eyes, the main one is not active, and he doesn't refuse.
Anyway, he can't afford to lose anything.
Tiramisu quickly came up.
This time it's also a separate one.
Giving the small spoon to Fang Yu, Cai Zhuoyan blinked his eyes, flashing and flashing, looking forward to Fang Yu's evaluation.
Scoop out a small spoonful and put it in your mouth.
Sweet tooth drop!
"Hmmm! Delicious! Fang Yu said something against his will, and his expression couldn't tell that he didn't like to eat at all.
"Yes! I think too! She didn't dislike the part that Fang Yu had dug at all, and directly dug a spoonful and put it in her mouth, "It's delicious!" ”
