Chapter 85: [Trouble]

The village chief of Xiaxi Village accompanied him to the door of the studio, and then walked back happily.

Whether it was the expression on his face or the movements on his body, it clearly conveyed a signal to Lu Zhengyi and Bai Wei, and he believed it.

The old man believed the marketing rhetoric.

He also went to make it clear to the people in the village that it would definitely not affect Lu Zhengyi's filming and life in the village.

Normal people, who believes that there are ghosts in this world.

Even in these areas where the folk atmosphere is strong, it is only a matter of respecting beliefs and local culture.

After all, they have all seen the so-called 'please gods' of those beggars and fairy children, and even, as the relatively older elders of this village, the village chief has also been the leader of those beggars and fairies.

Those temple worship rituals, support the puppet, burn incense to invite God, and praise the three steps...... It's still what he taught.

Of course, the village chief just completely obeys what the previous generation taught him, and then passes it over to the next generation, that's all.

"Director Lu, you said that they clearly feel that there are no ghosts and gods in this world, why do they still follow these."

Entering the set, Bai Wei, the scene reporter, couldn't help but ask with some doubts, "This doesn't make sense." ”

Those of them who have seen the beauty of the Chu people naturally believe in this.

But those who have not seen it, and know very well that these wandering rituals are fake, why do they still insist on this.

"Where are so many meaningful things?"

Lu Zhengyi replied casually, "From generation to generation, it is just the transmission of a culture and beliefs. ”

"The history of the Tang Kingdom for so many years has not relied on these people to slowly present it either through words or through word of mouth."

"If you think about it, maybe a hundred years ago, maybe two hundred years ago, in a war-torn dynasty, people dressed in quaint costumes that were completely different from what they are now, where we are standing now, performed the same ritual of wandering the gods."

"Whether it's real or just a kind of sustenance god, he brings these war-torn people together and gives them hope of survival in another way."

"And this hope has been passed down from generation to generation and has been preserved to the present, do you think it makes sense?"

Bai Wei replied without hesitation, "It makes sense." ”

"I didn't expect that the ritual of wandering the gods in Xiaxi Village has such a strong historical origin."

"It's me who underestimated this."

Lu Zhengyi stopped, "No, I just made it up casually. ”

He found that Bai Wei was indeed very stupid.

"Huh?"

Bai Wei also stopped and looked at him blankly.

"I just want to say that since this ritual of wandering the gods has appeared, there will always be a reason for its appearance in history that we know or don't know." Lu Zhengyi replied helplessly, "Therefore, whether it is meaningful or meaningless should not be decided by us, but by time." ”

"Also, you just kept saying that this wandering ritual has no effect."

"Let me emphasize one more point, it is not necessarily useless, it may just be that there is a problem with the inheritance, or it may be that the person who uses it is not right."

Since the crew knew that Chu Renmei participated in the god ceremony in a certain village in Taicheng, she was not expelled or ...... After the hunt, they have always been skeptical of the local culture.

But this kind of thing can't be said too absolutely.

"Got it, Director Lu."

Bai Wei replied seriously.

In this kind of ghost and god matter, Lu Zhengyi's words are convincing.

"Director Lu, Director Lu!"

However, not long after they entered the set, Zhang Yu, who was packing up the film and television materials filmed in the morning, ran over with a straight face, "Why did you come back." ”

As he spoke, he pulled Lu Zhengyi aside and took out his mobile phone, "My phone is about to burst." ”

"They can't get through to your phone, they all call me, and I don't know where to get the contact information."

"It's about investment, it's about sponsorship."

The hot search entry of "The Old Corpse of the Mountain Village" brings in addition to the disadvantages.

Of course, there are benefits.

And the benefit, of course, is that the big cake of horror movies has been discovered.

It turns out that there are also people in Tang Guo who can make good horror movies.

It turns out that if a domestic horror movie is made well, there are people who are willing to watch it.

Originally...... It's money-making!

Compared to 'science fiction', 'love', and 'action'...... These tracks are already crowded and blocked.

There are not many drivers on the 'horror movie' track.

And Lu Zhengyi has become the most eye-catching one.

Before, even if he was backed by his father, a big director, he had to negotiate the investment himself.

But now, the old corpse in the mountain village is on fire, and all investors and sponsors smell it and take the initiative to find it.

As for the hell, what the hell is not a ghost, I haven't seen it with my own eyes, who cares, who believes it.

It's just a marketing ploy.

"Hey, I'm on airplane mode."

Lu Zhengyi laughed, took out his mobile phone and shook it.

"You blocked it yourself, so don't tell me sooner."

Zhang Yu touched the hot mobile phone on the back cover, "No, they can't contact you, the director, so they came over to contact me, the deputy." ”

"As soon as the phone is answered, people ask for one million or two million."

"What now? Pick it up? ”

Lu Zhengyi put the phone back in his trouser pocket, "Pick it up?" Why pick it up? ”

"We're not running out of money now."

"Besides, we have a small investment, and we can't even afford to pay for special effects horror films, how can we use so much money." Zhang Yu frowned, and said solemnly, "Director Lu, this kind of thing that only looks at immediate interests is not like your temperament. ”

"In the past, the horror film market was silent, so forget it, but now there is an opportunity to do it."

"You should be able to imagine what will happen if you don't."

Before the fire, what you want to shoot, who cares about you.

No one can do it, wasting time and energy to block you.

But now, there are signs of this market, and this fire is still lit by Lu Zhengyi.

Then if you don't have a little bit of eyes, divide this cake, and there will definitely be no less trouble.

"I ......"

Lu Zhengyi was about to say something when the phone rang as soon as he put it in his trouser pocket.

He turned on the airplane mode, the mobile phone card had no signal at all, and normal calls could not be called.

The only thing that can be called in is the WeChat phone under the wireless network.

"Old Lou."

Lu Zhengyi pointed to the caller's name.

However, he also saw that in the list, Zhang Xueming also made a WeChat call to himself.

It's just that he and Bai Wei went to order food just now, and there was no wireless network on the road, so there was no prompt.

"Brother Yong must have come to remind you of this."

Zhang Yu took back his mobile phone in a timely manner, "You can talk to him about it, although this matter is a good thing, it is also quite troublesome." ”

With that, he didn't bother Lu Zhengyi to answer the phone, and turned around to go to the others.

It's subtle.

It's on fire, someone invests, but it's in trouble.

There was no fire before, but he felt relaxed.

However, compared to Zhang Yu, who was waiting for the battle, Lu Zhengyi was much calmer and connected the phone.

Then, with a smile, he said, "Hey, old Lou." ”

"What's the matter, your son is out of breath, and he is finally willing to call to care about it?"

"I can tell you, I don't want you to rub this heat."

Lu Yiyong's tone was very serious, "Stinky boy, floating?" ”

"Rub the heat? I see that you are in great trouble, and you don't even know who the enemy is. ”

"That's not right...... Is your phone turned off? ”

Lu Zhengyi didn't care either, his disappointing words.

Since he was a child, this father has rarely praised himself seriously.

What he particularly likes is repressive education.

No matter how well he does, he often likes to hit himself in order to achieve the goal of not being proud.

But...... This type of education is definitely problematic.

At least, Lu Zhengyi didn't like this before, and often quarreled with him.

But now, he can face this type of education calmly.

"Yes, how can you answer so many calls." Lu Zhengyi casually pulled a chair on the set and sat down, "Who is the enemy?" Isn't it just a bunch of jackals, tigers and leopards that come over when they smell the smell of meat? ”

"Just put a hundred hearts, I know it."

"Although this step is indeed a bit big, one film is worth my plan for two or three films, but I have roughly arranged it."
