prodigal director

Chapter 238 It really hit the street 【Subscription】

Tomb-sweeping day, according to the words of the previous two years, Hao Huan did not have a holiday for this kind of holiday, but kept making movies.

But this time, he gave the crew a holiday.

At the same time, the company also had a three-day holiday.

Wang Lexin's crew was also forced to take three days off to rest.

The main reason is that Hao Huan has issued an order, and he can't do without a holiday.

Of course, the most important reason for Hao Huan to ask for a vacation is to take Wang Lexin to see "Zombie Boy". By the way, let's know what stage Wang Lexin's "Animal World" is in now?
Early in the morning.

Wang Lexin came to see Hao Huan with her makeup box.

She was going out to watch a movie today, so she had to put on some makeup for Hao Huan, so that she didn't have to wear a mask to go out, and it was easy to be recognized by others.

Now, Wang Lexin's makeup skills can be considered relatively good.Although she usually goes out without makeup and has basically never put on makeup, the way she puts on herself and Hao Huan now shows that she has learned a lot about the essence of makeup from the beauty sister in the makeup team.

Spot a mole, paste two pieces of beard stubble, and make the complexion a little darker.

Few people can recognize Hao Huan's mature and old-fashioned image!

Even if Hao Huan returns home, his parents probably won't recognize him for a while, let alone those passerby fans.

But Wang Lexin's makeup on herself was much more normal, and her eyebrows were drawn a little longer.

The complexion is powdered, white and tender.

There is an obvious beauty mole at the corner of the eye, and the bridge of the nose is drawn a little higher, which instantly gives the appearance of an internet celebrity face.

Many people like this kind of Internet celebrity makeup, but many people are also face blind, so her Internet celebrity makeup can easily cover up her original appearance and not be easily recognized by others.

Although Hao Huan disliked Wang Lexin for turning himself into an uncle every time, he disliked the pretty boy makeup even more, so he had no choice but to accept it happily.

And he had to praise: "Not bad! My makeup skills are much better!"

"whee……"

Wang Lexin smiled smugly, she can put makeup on the actors now!

And when the makeup team was too busy, she did work part-time as a makeup artist, so her makeup skills are really not bad now.

"Get the key!"

Hao Huan reminded him, straightened his collar, and walked out.

It's rare to go to the movies, so of course I have to eat breakfast outside.So this morning Wang Lexin didn't cook breakfast, but waited to go to the theater to eat delicious and sweet food generously!

Taking the key, Wang Lexin took her small pink backpack and quickly followed Hao Huan out.

Lock the door and enter the elevator.

Press the B1 key to go to the negative floor.

Wang Lexin was already familiar with these steps, without Hao Huan's instructions, she opened the car door, got in the car and was ready to drive away.

Hao Huan sat in the passenger seat and asked: "How long will it take for "Animal World" to be completed?"

Wang Lexin put down the handbrake and drove, "It would have been finished in three days! It would be great if we didn't have a holiday..."

Her tone was a bit disgusting!

Because it was Hao Huan who wanted to take a vacation, but she had no intention of taking a vacation. She planned to finish filming the movie in one go.

Hao Huan said: "Do you understand the combination of work and rest! Even if you can stand working every day, others can't stand it!
As a director, as a boss-level figure in the crew, the first thing you have to consider is not for yourself, but for the sake of the actors and employees! "

Wang Lexin pouted: "Didn't you ignore these holidays before..."

These words made Hao Huan speechless!
He coughed and said, "It was because I was inconsiderate of everyone before. Don't you see that I give everyone a holiday now? Even if they are crying and saying they don't want a holiday or want to work overtime, I don't care about them!"

"All right……"

Wang Lexin naively believed Hao Huan's nonsense.

She turned to ask: "Boss, what are you going to eat for breakfast?"

Hao Huan thought for a while and said, "I haven't eaten noodles for a long time, let's eat noodles this time!"

"Oh."

……

15 minute later.

The two of Wang Lexin and Wang Lexin arrived at the nearby Dynasty Plaza. She parked the car and said, "There are two noodle restaurants on the third floor. Let's go up to eat noodles, sit for half an hour and then go to the movie theater. The time is just right!"

"Well, just as you said!"

The two took the elevator in the underground parking lot and went to the third floor of Dynasty Plaza. This floor was full of food.

The theater is on the second floor. It is really convenient to go to the movies after breakfast.

If you have enough time, you can also visit the mall here to see if there is anything to buy.

Of course, Hao Huan has no desire to shop.

And Wang Lexin seems to be the same as him, she doesn't have any desire and passion for shopping, unlike other women, when they enter the mall, their minds are full of shopping!
In the noodle shop.

There were still quite a few people at nine o'clock in the morning. When Hao Huan and Wang Lexin came in, the young waitress came to entertain them, but they didn't recognize them.

On the contrary, after Wang Lexin sat down, she attracted the attention of some male customers. The main reason was that Wang Lexin's makeup looked like that of an Internet celebrity beauty, and she had a higher rate of turning heads.

"I want to order this!"

Wang Lexin pointed her finger, Hao Huan looked at the menu, lowered her voice slightly, and said, "Then let's have two servings of udon noodles! Oh, and a plate of peanuts too."

After randomly ordering two servings of noodles and a plate of peanuts, Hao Huan took out his phone and looked at the movie data of "Zombie Boy".

It's just after nine o'clock, and the first premiere starts at nine o'clock today, so there are no movie reviews yet, and there are no movie ratings.

But the box office has now exceeded 6000 million yuan. If the premiere is successful and the reputation is good, it can still easily exceed [-] million at the box office today!
However, according to the system's final score, Hao Huan felt that the box office would definitely hit the street with a movie with a score of 61!

After finishing the noodles, Hao Huan slowly ate the peanuts.

It's still early. The movie tickets they bought were for the 9:40 show. It's only 9:16 now. They can sit there for another 10 minutes and then go to the theater on the second floor. They won't have to wait in the theater later. With.

Wang Lexin was drinking the soup, but she didn't speak, mainly because their voices might reveal their secrets, so apart from asking for udon noodles, she has been so quiet since she sat down until now.

10 minute later.

After Hao Huan ate the last three peanuts, he said, "Go and pay!"

"alright."

Wang Lexin took the mobile phone, then went to the front desk to scan the QR code to pay. Finally, she came back and took the small backpack, carrying it on her back, and followed Hao Huan out of the noodle shop.

in the cinema.

There weren't many viewers this morning. Except for "Zombie Boy", which is popular and worth looking forward to, other movies released recently are very average. Movie theaters are not as popular.

Wang Lexin quickly went to get the tickets and came out, and this time she didn't buy popcorn, but bought two cups of Coke, and followed Hao Huan to check the tickets and enter the venue.

Cinema 3.

When Hao Huan and the others came in, they found that more than half of the seats were vacant, unlike when they were watching "Infernal Affairs" and "Mr. Zombie".

But this occupancy rate of over 30% is actually very high. Many movies that have a premiere of over 30 million cannot even achieve an occupancy rate of [-]% when the film schedule is relatively high.

As the movie "Zombie Boy" started playing, everyone in the theater fell silent.

Hao Huan also quietly watched this movie that he had been looking forward to for a long time. As a comedy, can Liang Gangren make this movie well?
The script of this movie is very good. As long as the movie is made well, Hao Huan thinks that the box office potential will not lose to "Mr. Zombie". .

But the director was replaced by Liang Gangren, and Hao Huan didn't know how the movie would turn out!
But soon, he will know!
The shots at the beginning of the movie were well shot.

This actually doesn't matter. The most important thing is that the actors' appearance and some of the action shots are too ordinary. Not to say it's terrible, but it just seems to lack the visual effects and viewing pleasure that it should have.

Hao Huan finally understood why the system's final score for this "Zombie Boy" was only 61 points!Because Liang Gangren's director level is indeed just passing!

Otherwise, many shots could be taken better and be more exciting and shocking!

The comedy sequences also failed to capture the comedy essence in the script.

Apart from the fact that the actors' acting skills are not in place, the most important point is the director's understanding of the comedy clips.

For example, "Happy Ghost", this movie is also a comedy movie, Hao Huan did not guide Wang Lexin on how to shoot these comedy clips, but Wang Lexin can make it so funny.

It shows that Wang Lexin's understanding of comedy scenes is obviously better than Liang Gangren's, and it is obviously more mainstream than the comedy scenes shot by Liang Gangren.

These details are enough to see the difference between the two!
If the leading actors in "Zombie Boy" were not a group of big stars, I am afraid that the final box office of this movie would not even reach [-] million!

Now that the production cost of "Zombie Boy" is [-] million, Hao Huan feels that it will be difficult to pay back the cost.

The box office needs to exceed 9 million at least to pay back the cost, but is it possible to exceed 9 million with this quality now?

Hao Huan felt overwhelmed!

He didn't hear many laughs throughout the entire movie, which is enough to prove that this comedy movie has been a bit of a failure.

But overall, it's not a bad movie!

It can only be said to be quite satisfactory, and it belongs to the kind of movie that can be watched or not, and tasteless.

After the movie finished, many viewers didn't even watch the easter eggs, because the movie let them down a bit!

"Hey, I thought the screenwriter was Hao Huan, and "Zombie Boy" should be good to watch, but the director is too useless, and the filming is too boring."

"It's okay, at least the plot is fine, it's just that the actors' acting skills and laughs are a bit lacking."

"The plot is okay because the screenwriter is Hao Huan! Otherwise, with the director's level, this movie will only be worse!"

……

Listening to the audience's complaints, Hao Huan did not rush out, but asked Wang Lexin: "How is it? Do you see any shortcomings in this movie?"

Wang Lexin glanced behind him and saw that the audience had basically left, so he shouted: "The acting skills of the actors can be better, and the processing of the camera is a bit ordinary in many places, so the quality of the movie is relatively average."

Hao Huan said, "What else?"

Wang Lexin looked at the screen and said: "The director didn't know how to make the audience laugh with the comedy clips, so several comedy clips were shot badly and were not funny at all."

"anything else?"

Hao Huan asked with some relief. Even a stupid pig like Wang Lexin could see the problem. This meant that her directorial ability and vision were much better than Liang Gangren. How could she doubt her own directorial ability? Woolen cloth?

It can only be said that she is stupid from the authorities!
Wang Lexin thought about it again, and said: "The costumes follow the trend of "Mr. Zombie", so there are no bright spots.

The layout of the scene is also very ordinary. It seems that the production cost is worth 3 million yuan at most, which is not worth [-] million yuan at all! "

Hao Huan stood up in satisfaction: "So, that's why I am relieved to let you make my movie, but not to let others do it!

Even you stupid pig can see so many problems, but these professional directors with professional backgrounds can't. What does this mean?
It means that compared to you, their directing ability is far inferior to yours!disappointment……"

Hao Huan shook his head and sighed: "Let's go, my scripts still cannot be easily filmed by others in the future, otherwise the word of mouth I have managed to accumulate will be destroyed by others!"

Wang Lexin put on her backpack, then hurriedly took the Coke she and Hao Huan hadn't finished and chased after Hao Huan.

She suddenly felt a little more confident. Does this mean that my directing ability is really good?
But she's still worried...

I'm worried that the box office reputation of "Animal World" after its release in two months will not be as good as that of "Zombie Boy"!

After leaving the theater, Hao Huan offered to drive.

Although he sighed and expressed disappointment, to him, this was exactly the perfect result he wanted to see!

So on such a day worth celebrating, how can we not go to the seafood market?

Wang Lexin saw that this was not the route back and asked, "Boss, where are you going?"

Hao Huan sighed: "Liang Gangren let me down too much! "Zombie Boy" is afraid that it won't even make money back, so I want to turn my grief and anger into appetite, and go to the seafood market to buy the most expensive shrimp and crab to eat back!"

"..."

Why didn't Wang Lexin see how sad and angry Hao Huan was?
Based on her understanding of Hao Huan, Hao Huan always cursed when he was sad and angry, okay?

However, the filming of "Zombie Boy" was average or even poor. It stands to reason that Hao Huan was really disappointed and sad, so she was not suspicious.

after an hour.

Wang Lexin carried two bags of seafood and followed the empty-handed Hao Huan out of the seafood market.

Along the way, Hao Huan was stared at by many men!Because this guy was ashamed to use his hands empty-handed, and let the beauty behind him, who looked a bit petite and looked good with makeup, carry seafood in big bags!

Excessive!

Is this guy still a man!

Hao Huan was used to it, so she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it, and Wang Lexin was also used to it, so she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it.

After all, assistants, don't they all have to do dirty work?If the boss is allowed to do it, why does the boss need her as an assistant!
After Hao Huan drove back, Wang Lexin was going to deal with seafood. Hao Huan bought a lot of seafood, so he had to eat all he could eat for lunch and dinner today.

While Wang Lexin was busy in the kitchen, Hao Huan looked at the ratings and movie reviews of "Zombie Boy".

7.4 points!
He laughed at first, and then mourned: "Sure enough, it's on the street! With such dismal ratings and movie reviews, my 3 million yuan and the script have been ruined like this!"

at the same time.

Liang Gangren, the director of "Zombie Boy", is starting to panic!
This score, this film review, this is the rhythm of rushing to the street!
it's over... it's over...

How can this be?

He can't figure it out!
