Chapter 20: Lei Datou and Master Huayuan's sci-fi dreams
"Have you eaten yet? Eat and I'll take you somewhere later! ”
"Where are you going?"
Yang Sisi wiped his mouth and asked a little embarrassed.
"You'll know when it's gone, give you half an hour to clean up, it's overdue!"
On the weekend, Yang Sisi smiled mysteriously and sold Guanzi.
"Ah, it's mysterious!"
Yang Sisi pursed her lips, but the woman's curiosity made her bow her head again, and she snorted, "I want to see what the hell you plan to do." ”
"See you downstairs in half an hour!"
After finishing speaking, he drove Yang Sisi back to his room on the weekend.
However, Yang Sisi only let the weekend wait for twenty-five minutes, and then he appeared in front of the weekend with a new look.
"How?"
Yang Sisi's state today is much better than when she saw her yesterday weekend, and she has returned to her former brightness and beauty.
"Why are you dressed so pretty? It's not about taking you on a date. ”
The weekend looked at Yang Sisi from beginning to end, frowned and said, "Forget it, it's almost too late, so be it!" ”
Yang Sisi gritted his teeth in place for a while, and Xiao Fan's fist creaked.
I wanted to be angry, but he praised himself again.
"Where we're going, you'd give me a look!"
Yang Sisi caught up and asked uncontrollably.
"Don't worry, you'll know when you get there."
smiled on the weekend, but didn't say the answer, and refused to say it until he got in the car, deliberately holding him back.
Yang Sisi had no choice but to twist his head to the side angrily.
Forty minutes later, the weekend car stopped in front of the Puhai Drama Academy.
"What are we doing here?"
Although Yang Sisi is a question sentence, she has probably guessed the intention of bringing her here on the weekend.
"Didn't you say that the directors we found in Yanjing were unwilling to shoot this drama, so we won't ask for someone and find someone to shoot it ourselves."
"I don't believe that without Butcher Zhang, I can't eat pigs with hair."
Although there are directing skills systematically drawn on the weekend, an assistant director is also needed to be his tool.
A director who is a little famous must be reluctant to give a start to the weekend, so he can only choose from the newcomers.
The directing department that Puhai drama students graduated from is also a bachelor's degree, so there is no problem in being a tool man.
"But...... Looking for a new director to shoot, can we shoot the effect we want? ”
Yang Sisi knew in her heart that the weekend was probably for her own good, and she didn't want her to hit a wall again.
But I'm more or less worried about the ability of a new director, after all, this is the first play in my studio.
"Don't worry, isn't there still me!"
He smiled at Yang Sisi on the weekend, looking confident.
"Okay, then listen to you!" Yang Sisi glanced at the weekend and nodded heavily.
As the original author of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" over the weekend, he must have hoped that this movie would be made better than himself, and since he dared to bet, Yang Sisi also let it go.
"Then let's go!"
After speaking, he casually pulled a student at the school gate on the weekend and asked, "Classmate, are you a student at the film school?" ”
"yes, what's wrong?"
Listening to this fluent Northeast accent, I noticed at the end of the week that the student I pulled casually looked quite honest, and in addition, there was another big feature, that is, a big head.
"Classmate, it's like this, we want to find someone to help us shoot something, to be professional, to be more technical, do you know such a person?"
On the weekend, I originally had the idea of a blind cat meeting a dead mouse, but I didn't expect this big-headed student to give him a little surprise.
"You're from the crew, right, you want to find an obedient director to film, right?" The big-headed student showed a wise look and said, "Coincidentally, I really know one." ”
"Classmate, you guessed it, do your parents often tell you that you are smart when you are young?"
I was amused on the weekend, and this big-headed student who pulled it casually was quite interesting, and he was a wonderful person.
"You...... How do you know? "It is probably the first time that the eldest student has seen someone praise him for being smart, and he immediately has a good impression of the weekend.
"In our Puhai Drama Academy, if you want to say that it is difficult to find anything else, but if you want to find someone to film, as long as you shout, a lot of people are willing to go with you, as long as you take care of two meals."
Puhai Drama Academy has countless students every year, who are unemployed as soon as they graduate, those who act cannot receive the play, and those who film cannot get investment, which is not uncommon in the drama academy.
When many crews can't find anyone, they will come to the school gate to recruit people, and the picture is cheap, and the graduates are cheaper than those in Hengdian.
"By the way, my name is Lei Jiayin, which crew are you from?"
After the eldest student finished speaking, he did not forget to introduce himself.
"Your name is Lei Jiayin?"
On the weekend, when I heard the self-introduction of the big student, I immediately looked at Lei Jiayin attentively.
Isn't it a parallel world, how can there be people with the same name and surname?
If you look closely, except that the long hair is a bit of a drama, it really looks like a copy of the actor of the same name on the earth.
"yes, do you want me to take out my ID card and show it to you?"
The Lei family was about to dig out their pockets on the spot to prove their identity.
"No need, I believe you are Lei Jiayin." Weekend hurriedly stopped him and got down to business: "Didn't you say, do you know a director, can you take us to see it?" ”
"Cheng, what's this, just my senior brother, can definitely meet your requirements, and he just graduated this year, and I'm worried that no one is looking for him to film."
The Lei family was very enthusiastic to take the two of them to find the senior brother in his mouth on the weekend, and along the way, the bottom of his senior brother was shaken out like beans poured into the bamboo tube.
A few minutes later, Lei Jiayin took the two to the door of the Puhai drama student's cafeteria, and saw a small supermarket owner talking to the door of the canteen.
"Boss, I'm going to make the best science fiction movie in China now, you can invest some money casually, and you can make several times in the future!"
"Let's go, do you have any serious illness, I have worked in the drama academy for so many years, and it is the first time I have seen someone come to me to open a supermarket to pull investment."
"Isn't it also to give back to my alma mater, if you believe me, you will definitely be able to earn in the future, more than if you open a supermarket."
Yang Sisi was dumbfounded next to him, are the current rookie directors so difficult to mix, and if they want to shoot something, they have been reduced to looking for a small supermarket owner to pull investment.
Is this reliable?
"Ghost Blowing the Lantern" is also a movie with a budget of 50 million, and when it is handed over to a rookie director, she always feels a little suspenseful in her heart.
"Senior brother...... Here's it! ”
Lei Jiayin shouted and beckoned to the man with a small beard at the door of the cafeteria.
"Big head, why are you here?"
Lei Jiayin's senior brother heard someone call him, and when he turned around and saw that it was Lei Jiayin, he walked over.
"Senior brother, didn't I come to introduce you to life?"
Lei Jiayin smiled at his senior brother, and then turned around to introduce him to Zhou Zhou and Yang Sisi: "This is my senior brother Guo Fan...... By the way, I don't know what your name is, which crew? ”
Guo Fan glanced at Lei Jiayin angrily, how could such a shrewd person know such a treasured guy as Lei Jiayin.
"My name is Weekend, hello." After finishing the weekend, he looked at Lei Jiayin's senior brother with interest and asked, "Your name is Guo Fan?" ”
This trip to the Drama Academy is really worth it, and I have been surprised again and again.
"That's right, my name is Guo Fan!" Guo Fan nodded, looked at the weekend and frowned and muttered, "Weekend? I don't think I've heard this name somewhere, so I can't remember it. ”
Guo Fan couldn't think of it, so he didn't bother to think about it anymore, and quickly asked, "By the way, you haven't said which crew it is, why do you want to find me?" ”
"You said that our crew has not been established yet."
As soon as the weekend's voice fell, Guo Fan's face suddenly collapsed, and he turned his head and prepared to leave.
"What do you mean, Nima, playing monkey?"
The Lei family's face turned dark and began to shout loudly.
"Don't worry, don't you want to know how much we plan to invest in the first place?" The weekend was not angry, and he said unhurriedly.
"How much?"
Lei Jiayin blurted out.
"The preliminary estimate is 50 million!"
The sound of the weekend was not loud, but it was enough for the two of them to hear clearly.
When Lei Jiayin heard this number, his eyes immediately widened, and his mouth was so surprised that he could stuff an egg.
Guo Fan, who had just walked not far, suddenly stumbled under his feet, almost didn't stand firm, and his body shook.
"How much do you say?"
"Fifty million!"
After Lei Jiayin confirmed with the weekend again, the whole person was shocked in place.
"What's the matter with you, big head, you don't know how to be polite to guests?"
Guo Fan immediately showed his unique Sichuan Opera Face Changing Technique, and turned around to greet him with a smile.
As soon as he opened his mouth, it was 50 million, this is a big fish, just scrape it off his body, it is enough to shoot his own drama.
What?
You say you don't bend your waist for five buckets of rice?
What are you kidding, don't talk about five buckets of rice, we will bend our waists with one bucket of rice.
"Can we talk now?"
Weekend looked at Guo Fan with a smile and said with a smile.
"Of course, I originally wanted to go back and change into a more formal set of clothes first, but I think my brother is also an informal person, so I don't have to pay attention to it!"
Guo Fan's skin is as thick as a city wall, and he doesn't even need to make a draft when he opens his eyes and talks nonsense.
"Okay, let's find a quiet place and sit down and talk."
I laughed in my heart on the weekend, if I believed him, I would have a ghost.
"No problem, I know there's a café nearby, and it's quiet, I'll take you there."
After Guo Fan finished speaking, he led the two of them to walk in front, and Lei Jiayin also followed behind.
The café Guo Fan said is in the Puhai Drama Academy, although the decoration is not gorgeous, but it is better to have a booth, and it is relatively quiet, suitable for talking about things.
"What do you want to drink, I've got this meal!"
Guo Fan said very arrogantly, in order to get wool, he can be regarded as having made a bloody investment.
After ordering, as soon as the waiter left, Guo Fan couldn't wait to take out a stack of thick scripts and handed them to the weekend.
"Mr. Zhou, I don't know what you think of Huaxia's science fiction movies?"
is worthy of being a person who will be nicknamed Master Huayuan in the future, as soon as he sat down, Guo Fan began to prepare to fool.
Weekend smiled, playing tricks in front of the flicker master, he was playing with a big knife in front of Guan Gong, and the class got an axe.
"I think that although China's science fiction movies started late and developed slowly, as long as we go step by step, sooner or later there will be our own science fiction movies in China."
"But compared to the technical things, the main thing is that there is still a lack of original and excellent science fiction works."
When I was writing "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" on the spot on the weekend, I found that there are fewer Chinese science fiction works on Blue Star than on Earth.
At least in China on the earth, there was once a big Liu, and there was a science fiction work like "The Three-Body Problem" that can be familiar to everyone.
"The reason for this mentioned by Brother Zhou does exist, but I think the most important reason is that the first person to eat crabs did not appear."
As Guo Fan spoke, he began to show his fox tail, and he tried his best to speak like a spring, and he was hinting at the weekend in and out of his words: "I don't know Brother Zhou, do you have any ideas, to be the first person to eat crabs?" ”
"What do you mean?"
The weekend laughs in my heart, flickering, and you flickering.
"I want to make a science fiction movie that will impress all Chinese people, and even the whole world?"
Although Guo Fan is suspected of fooling, his eyes, when he talks about the four words of science fiction movies, reveal a very sincere gaze, only at this time he should be the real him.
Immediately after, Guo Fan began to try to describe the science fiction blueprint in his mind to the weekend, and talked endlessly for more than half an hour.
Guo Fan thought that it would be boring to listen on the weekend, but what surprised him was that he not only listened very seriously on the weekend, but also occasionally put forward some opinions.
What's more, the opinions put forward on the weekend even sounded a little deafening to Guo Fan, what kind of two-way foil, the law of the universe and other terms, simply made him feel suddenly enlightened.
After some conversation, Guo Fan had a feeling of seeing each other late and finding a confidant.
"Let's cut a long story short, how much do you think it would cost to shoot like this?"
Zhou Zhou chuckled, looked at Guo Fan and asked.
"Maybe tens of millions!"
Guo Fan was not embarrassed at all, and said cheekily.
Even Yang Sisi couldn't help but widen his eyes, thinking that Guo Fan was probably a madman, and he dared to ask someone to invest tens of millions of dollars when they met for the first time.
However, what surprised Yang Sisi was that there seemed to be no accidents on the weekend, and he looked at Guo Fan with a very calm face.
"Well, if it's too much, 30 million is not impossible...... Twenty million, twenty million is the lowest! ”
Guo Fan saw that he hadn't spoken on the weekend, so he began to bargain step by step.
However, to Guo Fan's surprise, Zhou Zhou suddenly smiled, shook his head and said, "It's too little." ”
"What did you say?"
Guo Fan almost thought that he had misheard, and looked at the weekend in shock.
"I said that I want to make a Chinese science fiction film that can impress the world, this money is too little, I think it will cost at least 100 million, otherwise you won't be able to shoot the effect you want."
Although I didn't pay attention to the production cost of Guo Fan's "The Wandering Earth" in my previous life, tens of millions must be more than that.
"But ......"
Guo Fan paused when he heard the weekend, and his heart suddenly stuck in his throat again, and he hurriedly asked, "But what?" ”
"But I don't think it's time yet, with your current ability and experience, you can't shoot the effect you want for the time being."
"So, if you want, you can come to us first to accumulate some experience, although our drama is not a science fiction film, but it also uses a lot of special effects, just enough for you to learn from others."
Looking at the smile on the corner of his mouth on the weekend, Guo Fan frowned, he always felt that something was wrong, obviously he was the one who was fooled, why did he seem to have become the one who was fooled now?
