Chapter 115: Script Selection
SBS TV.
Li Tang sat at his desk and scribbled on the paper, not drawing the unlucky bear.
It was after determining which movie script should be chosen, and now after crossing out a few names, there were still four movie names left on the paper.
"My Sassy Girlfriend"
"If Love Has Providence"
The Eraser in My Mind
"I Love You"
Writing a script is not a problem for Li Tang, but choosing a script is.
Sometimes there are too many choices, and it's painful.
He wants everything, he wants everything.
But it's not realistic to shoot it all at once.
It's important which movie is the first one to shoot.
Just when Li Tang was making a difficult choice, the door of the office was pushed open.
"Li Tang, I heard that you are going to write a movie script, what should I do with my old partner, I haven't made a movie."
"Won't it be bad for me to shoot, the lens language is different, the time is not tight, and it is too late to learn now."
After Luo Changming pushed the door in, although his words were a little unconfident, the smile on his face was not less.
Movies, that's movies.
Regardless of whether it sells well or not, making a movie is still different for the director.
"Can you knock on the door and come back in later, and I'll intervene when you see something you shouldn't be looking."
The expression on Li Tang's face was vicious, and he stretched out two fingers with his right hand and gestured.
He was really taken aback, and now even Li Suyan and Shen Junxian would knock twice before coming in to make him mentally prepared.
"Isn't that in a hurry?" Luo Changming explained: "I now wonder if it's true that you are going to write a movie script. β
"I haven't started writing yet, but it's definitely not okay for you to be a director, you have no experience, and this movie is not for fun."
Li Tang refused verbally, he still has to take his work seriously, and a good movie can't be watched just because of shooting.
Although Luo Changming is very good at shooting TV series, he can't say that he has zero shooting movies, but he has never really filmed them.
In this case, let him shoot, the first point may be that there will be a movie with a long time, and he may want to express one thing that will follow the method of the TV series.
The second point may be that the plot will be sparse, and it will be difficult to cut in the later stage.
There is a third point, that is, the box office will definitely hit the streets.
Anyway, this is also the first movie of their crew, and it is a shame to hit the street.
"Ah, not just filming?"
"I heard Su Yeon's producer say that you only filmed when you watched the crew be bored, and this is not just filming and playing, testing the water."
Luo Changming heard a different answer, if he wanted to know that he was serious about making movies, he wouldn't have come to ask.
Even if he was asked to shoot him, he wouldn't dare, it didn't matter if he was filming and playing.
If he makes a movie seriously, he will really be so stressed that he will become bald, and he can't keep a single hair of his own.
"Of course not, let's spend whatever time we want."
"Su Yeon producer, she doesn't know the situation, I just met her, I see her so happy, there is no pressure at all, there are no dark circles under her eyes, it's not her style."
Luo Changming is very suspicious, normally speaking, Suyan's production should not be in this state, there is no pressure, and he is happy.
This is also his belief that this movie is filmed and played, otherwise he would not think about it in this regard.
Fortunately, they are all very familiar with each other, so they don't make jokes.
"Hmm...... You should know. β
Li Tang was also a little unsure, he did get a movie script because Li Suyan said next to him all day long that he was too idle, too idle.
But this ...... It shouldn't mean that it's just a casual pat, if she understands it so well, it must be a problem that she understands herself, and it has nothing to do with herself.
"I don't think she knows." Luo Changming looked serious.
"It's not a bad thing to know later."
"It's not a bad thing, really." Luo Changming agreed.
"It's time for you to come, I have a few ideas that I haven't decided yet, so I can come and give an opinion."
Li Tang handed over the paper with several movie names written on it.
"Are you asking me to choose the name directly?"
"What about the plot, what can you see by looking at the name!"
Luo Changming was speechless, he remembered that once he chose a TV series like this, he was only given his name, and he was asked to choose.
This time again.
"Listen to the general content, you may not be able to choose the right one, there is a lot of pressure when choosing, this time it is a love-themed movie, you can choose at will."
Luo Changming felt that there was some truth when he heard this.
But if you think about it carefully, there's a fart truth, isn't it just a random name?
It's a matter of luck, okay.
"Then this I love you, it sounds like the theme of love, is it a story of a pair of young people from meeting and acquaintance to getting married, such a script structure is also very good, not risky."
"I'm right."
Luo Changming tried to analyze the direction of the movie from the name, and he felt that his guess should be eight or nine and ten.
The very decent film structure completely tests the screenwriter's creative ability, and whether the sweet details of life can resonate with the audience.
As long as there is resonance, the film is considered a success.
"Hmm...... Not at all. β
"The protagonist is a love story of four people who are more than 200 years old together, and it is said to be a love story, but in fact, it is also a bit of a warm family story."
"Thinking about it this way, there are still some things that are not suitable, and the audience who watches movies now still likes younger things."
"Director Luo, thank you for helping me eliminate one."
After Li Tang listened to Luo Changming's conjecture, he crossed very decisively.
This story is indeed not the love of young people he thought, and it may be applauded when it is filmed now, but not too many people will watch it.
After five years and ten years, the audience is tired of watching young people's love movies, and when the time comes, it may be applauded and popular again.
"Am I helping you rule it out? That's the one I chose, and you'll be eliminated as soon as I choose it, right? β
"Okay, good, you're angry with me."
Luo Changming was not angry, but he was really angry.
"No, no, it's also your point that I narrowed it down."
"Don't be angry, choose another one and choose one of three for inspiration." Li Tang encouraged.
Luo Changming took a few deep breaths and calmed himself down.
"Since your name and content are so different from what normal people think, then I'll choose the eraser movie in my mind."
"This shouldn't be a love story for the elderly."
After Luo Changming finished speaking, he suddenly asked again.
"It's not, but it's ......"
The plot of "The Eraser in My Brain" seems clichΓ©, but in this standard cold-style tragedy, there is a lingering love that can crush people's hearts.
Whether it is the clean and ethereal background, or the MV-style fresh picture, as well as the personal charm of the actors, the audience is immersed in it, and they are moved to cry and laugh for a sadomasochistic love.
This movie is a good movie in every sense of the word.
However, not too many people knew about Alzheimer's disease in 99 years, and if this movie was released, the cost of explanation in the movie would be too high.
"But what!"
Luo Changming stared at Li Tang very seriously, he wanted to see what else Li Tang could say.
"Director Luo, don't be so excited, calm down."
"It's not that this movie is bad, but there is a disease in it, and there are many people who know it, but there are still many people who don't understand, especially the heroine who got this disease at such a young age, and many people may not be able to accept it for a while."
"When this disease is younger, the content of this movie will not be too troublesome."
Li Tang said as tactfully as possible.
Luo Changming didn't speak, he looked straight at Li Tang, he wanted to see if this person was playing tricks on himself.
"Director Luo, don't look at me like this, this excludes one that doesn't meet the answer, you see that there are two left."
"Think about it and choose the last time, I promise it's the last time."
After listening to this, Luo Changming stood up directly and strode to the door, with a hint of anger in his voice.
"I'm choosing this, I'm a dog."
He opened the door and walked away without looking back.
"It's really okay to choose again, I'm so old, and I'm still so angry."
"With such a big fluctuation in temper, it's no wonder that so much hair is lost."
Li Tang took the paper and thought about it seriously.
