Chapter 244

Everyone in the screening hall was still relaxing because Li Weijie was superior in the contest with the director. They were recalling the plot of the film while waiting for Li Weijie to turn himself in to "save his soul" as in previous films.

Sucha's body has been transferred from the grave to the police station by Li Weijie. Although it is not explicitly stated in the film, it can be guessed that this kind of simple feedback gives the audience a good sense of accomplishment.

The film stopped abruptly.

Li Weijie did not turn himself in in the end!
After confirming Xiao Xiaofeng's starring role, the main creators discussed the script with each other, and Li Che made such an arrangement.

However, in order to prevent the re-opening when the review fails, Qi Qingsong filmed both endings in advance.

The reason why he chose to submit the ending of not surrendering himself to the trial was mainly out of commercial considerations.

Li Che actually prefers the ending in which Li Weijie surrendered himself, because Li Weijie's characterization in that ending is more three-dimensional.

Li Weijie believes in Buddhism, not only loves his family, but also pursues inner peace.

After the tomb was dug up, the hideous bloodstains inside the coffin board hinted to the audience that Sucha was not actually dead when he was buried in the tomb, but was suffocated to death after being buried in the coffin.

The local people took advantage of Sucha's case to make their lives turbulent. In addition, his daughter learned to lie about her grades. Li Weijie, who consciously set a bad example, finally made up his mind to surrender.

This kind of development will make the whole film deeper, and can continue the film's already controversial foundation of conflict.

But the problem is that the audience will feel uncomfortable after watching it for the first time. The "justice" of most audiences is relatively simple. In their view, Sucha and the police chief are villains, and Li Weijie's family is decent. to defeat the villain.

In their view, Li Weijie's cover-up of the next murder crime is to enforce justice and to resist the power, and to surrender is to surrender to the power.

The various reasons why Li Weijie decided to surrender himself are not completely incomprehensible to most people, but everyone just wants to see him "get away with it" in the end.

Therefore, in this version of the non-surrender, the blood on the coffin board is deleted, so that the audience's repressed emotions in the film can be freely vented at the end.

All the people in the screening room began to applaud together after the unsatisfactory surprise.

This film is undoubtedly a high-quality commercial film, and everyone enjoyed it quite a lot.

"Huh~ this ending..."

A theater manager was both emotional and hesitant.

"This ending is quite controversial."

Another manager took over.

That's it, if the audience will complain if they turn themselves in, they are beyond reproach in terms of morality and law.

Although viewers who do not surrender themselves like to watch it, they themselves know that it is controversial.

"But it's such an excellent film that I want to see it a second time right now."

"The problem lies in the trial..."

"Look at the lead actor..."

"Okay, I remember that Li Che seemed to say that he was going to be on summer vacation?"

"Well, last year was the weakest summer file, and this year it will become the strongest summer file. However, among the few films currently scheduled, it's hard to say which one will top the box office, but my favorite is "Manslaughter."

"It's still a bit of a pity. If Li Che plays the leading role, we will promote "Manslaughter" in this summer. The quality of the film and Li Che's appeal, tsk tsk~"

"I think it's the best now. Li Che can guarantee the box office just by being a screenwriter. In addition, Xiao Xiaofeng, a leading actor who is not far behind the audience, will definitely explode. My only regret is that , Li Che's current movies are not family-friendly, and the box office ceiling is a bit low..."

"Is the upper limit of "Wu Shuang" low?"

"Haha! That's something you can't ask for..."

Li Che didn't specifically ask everyone what their evaluation was. Participating in this viewing was to show that he valued it. The staff in charge of communication and publicity in Qicheng would naturally collect and communicate these questions.

Judging from the surrounding reactions, "Manslaughter" should initially have met Li Che's expectations, giving himself a reassurance.

Next, Li Che will continue to follow up the announcement of "Manslaughter" and the follow-up work. The success of this film is crucial to the current start.

Qi Qingsong also seemed to be temporarily relieved.

After returning to China, he counted that he had filmed two TV dramas. Although they both achieved both word-of-mouth and popularity success, the shadows of Wang Changxing and Li Che in those two TV dramas were too obvious. This movie is the first time that almost Movies that only you control.

In this movie, from the initial entanglement to the final understanding of ideas, Qi Qingsong absorbed bit by bit the experience of these years, from compromise to persistence, no one values ​​"Manslaughter" more than him.

"Your next movie, I think you should like it?"

After the viewing session was over, Li Che and Qi Qingsong entered the office together, and threw the script to him without stopping.

The script of "Detective Chinatown" is actually not so good that there is no need to add it. The reason why I chose it is because it is a very standard commercial film, which has a larger audience than traditional suspense and reasoning films. It also has the potential to enter the Lunar New Year file.

This is the most critical point of this movie. It seems to have connotations but is not too deep. It can be played everywhere, and there is also a funny atmosphere that dilutes the seriousness.

I have been making traditional suspense films. Although it can maintain word of mouth, it will naturally have disadvantages in terms of commerciality.

Except for the films of Wang Changxing and Penliu Fund, Qi Cheng will focus on commercial films in the next one or two years. After so many projects every year, Li Che will be able to fully participate in very few projects.

Maintaining commercial success gives confidence to the financing side, and creating some branded film and television series to attract audiences. After Qicheng's strength is stabilized, it is time to pursue awards.

Li Che had such a plan, but he didn't know what Qi Qingsong was thinking.

Qi Qingsong flipped through it casually, and smiled after a while: "You won't let me keep filming this series."

"of course not."

"That's good, but next time, it's better to give me room to choose. You have so many scripts to shoot, there should be one I want to shoot the most."

Qi Qingsong also made comments.

"When this film is finished and you are preparing for the next film, it's fine if I choose all the scripts for Qi Cheng."

Li Che is actually not willing to give Qi Qingsong too much restraint, but if Qi Qingsong can fully grow up in Qicheng, the meaning is very important.

"How many scripts does Qicheng have now?"

"About dozens?"

"Short of money for departure?"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to spend it."

"Let's start formally preparing for this film tomorrow, and I hope to finish filming before May."

"……no problem."

 There is only one chapter today... I will make up the missing chapter next week.
