You made me a superstar

Chapter 454 Fear
"The hero of a generation, Li Mubai, intends to withdraw from the arena, and entrusts his confidante, Yu Xiulian, to bring her Qingming Sword to the capital as a gift for Lord Belle to collect. Li Mubai's retreat from the arena has actually caused more grievances in the arena... ..."

in the conference room.

Shen Changwei carefully looked at the outline of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

The more you look at it, the more pleasantly surprised you become, and the more you look at it, the more transparent it becomes. In a trance, it's like being enlightened.

The failure of "Hero" in Berlin made him feel lost for a while.

After the loss, I once calmed down and thought about the reason for the failure of "Hero", but after thinking about it for a long time, I was stunned to understand the reason.

After all, he is an authentic Chinese. Although he has received a Western-style education and has been abroad for a long time, his cognition and education in his bones come from China. Although he tried his best to promote the film to the world when making movies, In a sense, it has the idea of ​​catering to the international community, but it is not complete.

The appearance of the outline of the movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" made Shen Changwei think clearly and the chaotic thinking began to become clear in an instant.

When he reviewed "Heroes" again, all the problems he had been unable to figure out suddenly became clear!
As some Berlin audiences commented, audiences don’t know the feelings of family and country, or martial arts. They only know that this movie is gorgeous and cool. Art, but not many people really go deep into art, talk about the core of this movie and the deep-level things they want to show the audience through this movie.

The main line of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is too straightforward, even the various cases and dialogues in the script outline are extremely straightforward.

It simply caught the eyes of Westerners firmly, as if the outline of this script was tailor-made for Westerners, with Platonic love, Shakespeare-style dialogues, and lofty humanistic realms, all of which are just right for those so-called Western intellectuals In addition to this, the entire outline of the movie is exaggerated with "freedom" and "revenge". "Dare to love, dare to hate" and "Extremely Straightforward Dialogue" stabbed the ordinary American people hard again, and really pulled out the outline, and found that one of the lines had a cool text similar to "The Count of Monte Cristo" template.

"Is this movie... still a Chinese martial arts movie? This is an art movie for foreigners to watch?"

After watching the movie, Shen Changwei fell into deep thought for a long time. When he figured out something again, he suddenly muttered to himself.

And Wang Shuai who was next to him also finished reading the script of "Infernal Affairs 2". After hearing Shen Changwei's muttering, he also picked up the script outline of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and read it.

After watching...

There was a flash of confusion on Wang Shuai's face, and then he compared the two notebooks a little bit, and after remembering the past movies that Zhou Yang had made, a wry smile appeared on his face.

"It's a monster!"

It stands to reason that for every screenwriter, no matter what themes are written, you can more or less find common points in these themes. This is the characteristic that every screenwriter has.

but……

Starting from "Mine Bottom", to "Infernal Affairs", and even to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

All written by the same person.

However, Wang Shuai found that each of these scripts seemed to be written by different people, and there was no trace of the same screenwriter at all.

How can one person write such a script?

Unless it's schizophrenia, or...

monster!

The meeting room fell silent again.

Because it is quiet, it is easier to hear the noise outside. Zhou Yang seems to be in contact with every new director.

Talk to them about the movies they have made, about their experiences, and about the future...

More than an hour later, Zhou Yang pushed the door open again and came in. Shen Changwei and Wang Shuai looked at Zhou Yang holding a stack of thick notebooks in his hands, and their eyes seemed to be thinking about something.

"Xiao Zhou, don't you want to wholesale scripts?" Wang Shuai teased Zhou Yang.

However, Zhou Yang didn't respond, he didn't even see the two of them, he just sat on the main seat, he didn't write like the outline of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", but tapped the computer keyboard on his own .

It's like when Zhou Yang was immersed in the character when he was filming "The Crow", he became another person.

The two looked at each other, but they didn't leave. Instead, they watched Zhou Yang's typing on the keyboard faster and faster, and even made afterimages of his fingers.

"Both directors, why don't you... do what you want first? Director Zhou is caught in the middle of creation, just like this..."

Outside, the door opened.

Xu Mei walked in, and after seeing Wang Shuai and Shen Changwei hesitated for a moment, she whispered this sentence to them.

Wang Shuai nodded, indicating to leave, and stood up to leave, but was stopped by Shen Changwei.

"I want to see what script he will write next..."

After Shen Changwei said these words softly, Wang Shuai also nodded, his eyes couldn't hide his curiosity, and he finally sat back on the chair.

"Then I'll prepare lunch for the two directors..."

Seeing that the two of them were fighting in this battle, Xu Mei nodded and didn't say anything, just turned and left.

After more than half an hour...

Xu Mei came to the meeting room with three boxed lunches. When the boxed lunches were placed next to Zhou Yang, Zhou Yang recovered from typing on the keyboard, but stared at the computer screen. The lunch box was put down, and some things were written by hand, and they were scribbling and changing.

Shen Changwei and Wang Shuai kept staring at Zhou Yang like this for five hours. When they were so uncomfortable sitting on their buttocks, they finally saw Zhou Yang let out a long sigh of relief and touched his eyes tiredly.

Then he looked at Shen Changwei and Wang Shuai in shock: "Director Shen, Director Wang, you... are you still here?"

"Xiao Zhou, you only gave me a script outline for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and you just want to send me away? Why don't you give me a slightly more detailed outline?"

Seeing Zhou Yang's shocked appearance, Shen Changwei couldn't laugh or cry.

"Ah... I forgot, Director Shen, the general outline of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" looks like this, but there are many details that need to be changed slightly... In this way, I will hand over the entire book outline to you in two days ?" After looking at Shen Changwei, Zhou Yang slapped his head suddenly, realizing suddenly, and then glanced at Shen Changwei embarrassedly.

"Hmm... besides "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Infernal Affairs 2", what other books have you written?"

"Well, there are only two notebooks for the time being, one is "Crazy Stone" and the other is "Eavesdropping". I have just finished writing the outlines of these two notebooks. Well, I have to talk to a few young directors outside the house for details. Judging by their shooting intentions, they are generally of these types, and they should not be wrong..."

"Xiao Zhou, you're crazy. Do you really intend to fight the Huaxia movie box office alone?" Wang Shuai was horrified when he saw Zhou Yang say this, and he stood up from his chair suddenly.

He finally realized what Zhou Yang was going to do when he suddenly called them to Huaxing today and gave them the script!

only……

The more I think about it, the more creepy I feel, and the more I think about it, the more incredible I feel.

When Zhou Yang saw Wang Shuai's horrified expression, he just showed a somewhat embarrassed smile: "I haven't thought about it that way, but I just want to make up for the 2 box office of other directors... If everything goes well, "The Grand Master", "Infernal Affairs [-]", "Eavesdropping", "Crazy Stone", should be enough..."

"Oh my God! Are you sure that the outlines of these scripts you wrote are all small blockbusters with a box office of over [-] million?"

Wang Shuai couldn't help but walked towards Zhou Yang's chair. When he saw the script outlines of "Eavesdropping" and "Crazy Stone", he thought it was nonsense at first, but the more he looked at it later, the more shocked he became.

Is this what the fuck can this guy write in hours?

"I don't know, what if I go? If it doesn't work, I still have a movie with only one actor. This movie is called "Sniper Phone Booth". Director Wang, are you interested? When I was filming "Infernal Affairs 2" , take a few days to get this movie out and try?"

"Are you crazy?"

When Wang Shuai saw that Zhou Yang was smiling but his eyes were glowing with blazing light, he suddenly lost his voice.

"Director Wang, I won't write the script for the time being. My head is a little dizzy. How about I talk to you about the plot of this solo movie?"

"..."

Wang Shuai has directed movies for so many years.

He has seen countless actors, screenwriters, and experienced countless storms, but looking at Zhou Yang at this moment, he still felt a little bit of chill.

The chill penetrated into the bone marrow and turned into an unknown sense of fear.

Zhou Yang's behavior was too abnormal and too crazy.

He was obviously standing here alone, but Wang Shuai actually felt that there were many mysterious people standing behind Zhou Yang.

His head went down, and then, his heart beat faster unconsciously.

But Zhou Yang didn't seem to notice his expression, and began to chat with him about the script of "Sniping the Phone Booth" on his own.

Zhou Yang looked tired.

His eyes were red.

But the light in the eyes is getting hotter and hotter. When talking about the script, the whole person is beaming, as if there are endless topics to talk about, even like an audience, watching "Sniper Phone Booth" is being filmed, even Can tell all the props that can be used for shooting...

Wang Shuai listened to the movie outline and story dully, the more he listened, the more horrified he became, the humming sound in his head, and finally he only heard Zhou Yang's mouth opening and closing, and he couldn't even hear what Zhou Yang was saying.

After a while, or after a long time...

"Awesome, this idea is great! God, what is hidden in your head, I want to pry it open to see! Xiao Wang, can you take pictures of this book, if you don't take pictures, let me take pictures?"

When Shen Changwei heard Wang Shuai standing up suddenly, his eyes were full of surprises!

He patted Wang Shuai on the shoulder.

Wang Shuai was sitting on the chair, just staring at the back of Zhou Yang. He didn't know if it was because he sat here for too long today, or what the reason was. He felt that the "mysterious people" standing behind Zhou Yang were getting more and more nervous. It's getting clearer...

　gone today
