prodigal director

Chapter 3 Systematic Usury
"Substitute into the director's perspective, do you need to spend 1000 prodigal points per minute?"

Why didn't you say this at the beginning!
Hao Huan secretly scolded this cheating system in his heart, he finally knew why the system was called the prodigal director system!

I finally spent 800 million yuan to unlock "Chain Saw" with great difficulty. Now I went to the set to experience the filming process of the movie, but the system popped up such a prodigal prompt!

Enter the director's perspective and consume 1000 prodigal points every minute.In other words, one minute of substitution costs 1 yuan, one hour costs 1000 yuan, and one day costs 60000 million yuan!

Calculated based on the 18-day shooting time of "Saw", if it were from the director's perspective from beginning to end, he would have spent 2592 million yuan!

After such a calculation, Hao Huan almost vomited blood.

This system is really a prodigal toy!

The worst failure is that the system has launched a loan business out of mercy!
"It is detected that the balance of the host is insufficient, and the prodigal loan business is started. Currently, the maximum daily loan amount of the host is 1000 million prodigal value."

After understanding the loan business of the system.

Hao Huan couldn't help but cursed: "I'll lend you Ma Maipi!"

Black merchant!

This prodigal black business system!

The daily interest rate is as high as 20%. For a loan of 1000 million yuan, you have to repay 200 million yuan in interest per day. If the loan is not repaid for 5 days, it is equivalent to owing the system 2000 million yuan!

Who the hell can afford a loan?
Cherish life and stay away from usury!
Hao Huan felt that he had to be rational, otherwise his father's billions of assets were really not enough for him to lose.

After scolding the system, Hao Huan began to look around seriously.

A dim room with a light that is not bright...

The place where he is now is the dim bathroom shown at the beginning of the movie.

At his feet, lying there was the terrifying corpse that stood between Adam and Lawrence at the beginning.

Hao Huan, who was immersed in the scene, had to praise the director of "Saw" at this moment!

He had watched the entire movie before, and what impressed him the most was the scene cut at the beginning of the movie.

This is the bathroom scene from another perspective that he is witnessing now!

This kind of sharp opening was something Hao Huan never thought about when filming "Age of Fright".

I have to say that such an opening is really easy to catch people's attention, giving people a sense of fear that is very frank and direct but not too scary.

Moreover, from the beginning to the end of the movie story, in fact, they did not think about how to scare the audience, but pulled the audience in, thinking together with the characters, how to overcome fear and how to survive when facing death.

So it is not without reason that "Chain Saw" can stand out in the suspense and thriller category.

Most suspense and thriller movies only bring people a feeling of fear.

And "Chain Saw" has created an atmosphere of fear just right!He didn't frighten the audience too much when watching the movie, but used these seemingly horrifying plots to convey the meaning of the whole movie.

And this is where Hao Huan needs to reflect and learn.

Because the "Age of Fright" he filmed was the exact opposite of "The Chainsaw". He was just thinking about how to use the plot skillfully to keep the audience tensed with a nerve of fear and stimulation.Regardless of a movie, even if it is a suspense and thriller movie, it must convey a spirit to the audience or a meaning of watching a movie.

Therefore, this type of film cannot blindly pursue thrillers and excitement.Nor can we ignore the thoughtful humanistic spirit that a good movie should present to the audience in order to create an atmosphere of suspense and fear.

This is what Hao Huan realized after watching "Chain Saw".

Suspense movies are different from popular movies in that they are not palatable to people. As a result, many people basically dare not buy a ticket to watch it once they know that it is a suspense and thriller movie.

On the other hand, for those movies with popular themes, no matter how bad the plot is, as long as there are enough laughs and special effects, then basically the box office can make up for it.

This is where suspense films cannot be compared!

Hao Huan took notes seriously. He watched the filming process of "Saw" and watched the director and staff huddled in the small "bathroom" to start filming.

He really wanted to step into the director's perspective, to understand some of the director's thoughts when filming "Saw", and to learn from the other party's professional ability in directing and controlling the field.

But poverty limits him...

He almost couldn't hold back and borrowed usury from the system, but when he thought about the balance in his card, he suddenly lost the idea of ​​taking out a loan.

The 800 million yuan lost earlier was quite hurt to him.It will cost a lot of money to make a movie next time, and it is impossible for his father to give him any more money, so he has to save it.

Hao Huan moved to the director's side, and with the help of the dim light, he could see the director's appearance clearly.

I didn't expect the director who made "Saw" to be so young, he seemed to be almost the same age as himself.

Thinking about it, Hao Huan felt ashamed and ashamed in his heart!
He is also in his twenties, and someone else is already a big director with a box office of over [-] million, but the movie he made did not have a box office of over [-] million, and the production cost was [-] million!
Don’t be too worried!

Hao Huan walked around behind the director. He didn't have the money to step into the director's perspective, but standing behind him could give him a little more sense of immersion.

Overall, the filming process of "Saw" was not too complicated, the equipment and props were very ordinary, and there were very few staff on the set.

But under such conditions, movies with a box office of up to 7 million can be made, which shows that there must be something worth learning.

For example, from the simplest camera angle, Hao Huan learned some essence after observing it for just a moment.

In addition, the content of the script and the acting skills of the actors are the second guarantee of the box office.

Hao Huan silently jotted down the key points, hoping that when he remakes "Chain Saw" next time, he can simplify the complexity and strive for perfection.

……

Time just passed by day by day.

The filming of "Saw" took only 5 days to prepare, and the filming time of the movie only took 18 days!
For Hao Huan, this is already worth learning.

Because the longer the film is made, the more money it will cost.

This is also the reason why he spent [-] million on the production cost of "Age of Fright", which he filmed intermittently for nearly a year.

If all future movies can have the efficiency of "Saw", then a lot of money can be saved in production costs!

Of course, if the efficiency goes up, it's useless if the quality doesn't go up.

Hao Huan continued to watch...

Unconsciously, this was already his sixth day on the set of "Saw".

He did not rush out of the set experience, because once he quit, there would be no second chance to experience it.Moreover, the system also shows that the length of experience on the set will not affect the time in real life.

So even if he spent 6 days on the set of "Saw", in reality it was just a nap.

After the "long" 6-day observation, Hao Huan really benefited a lot.

The bathroom scene was filmed in less than 6 days. This efficiency fully proves the professionalism of the director and the actors.

If it was him and the lead actor of "Age of Scary", Hao Huan felt that the plot would take at least a month to complete.

At the same time, he also discovered many deleted plots.

Maybe it was because that world had stricter censorship of movies, so some of the more bloody and terrifying plots had to be deleted even though they were particularly exciting to film.

Of course, these are not the point.

After all, the deleted plot does not affect the direction of the whole movie.And Hao Huan can just refer to these deleted clips, so as to avoid some unnecessary shooting processes.

He pinched his earlobe a little harder, firmly memorized his homework, and enriched his knowledge in all aspects.

Before I knew it, 18 days had passed. "Chain Saw" finally came to an end, and Hao Huan woke up from his dream.

When he opened his eyes, it was no longer late at night outside, and the dazzling sunlight shone in through the window.

Hao Huan seemed to have slept for more than ten days, he took a look at his phone in a daze, and found that he had only slept for 9 hours!

Immediately afterwards, he saw several unread messages.

Sure enough, the expected bad news came...
