Desperately pretending to be O in front of his girlfriend [entertainment circle]

Even though he knew that making a movie was not a project that could be completed by just talking about it, Gu Qian's words undoubtedly gave Qi Yu the courage to try.She immediately contacted Jiang Mei who was still on the other side of the ocean by email. When Jiang Mei heard the news, she was naturally ecstatic. She immediately asked for leave from the school and decided to return to China in two days to discuss the script with Qi Yu face to face.

"Is latte okay?" Gu Qian thoughtfully asked Jiang Mei who was sitting on the sofa.

"Yeah, thank you for your hard work, senior sister Gu!" Jiang Mei nodded hurriedly, sitting upright like a primary school student who was taken to the office.

Although he used to be an alumnus, not to mention that Gu Qian is now a famous actress at home and abroad, and even Qi Yu has become one of the powerful actors of the new generation, so Jiang Mei, who is still a little transparent in the screenwriting circle, is very nervous .

"There's no ice at home, can I have a hot latte?" Gu Qian gracefully put the coffee in front of Jiang Mei with a cup and saucer, and asked apologetically.

"Yes, yes! Thank you for your hard work, senior! I like hot coffee very much." Jiang Mei was so excited that her tongue was almost tied up. She just stretched out her hand to touch the cup, but flinched when her finger touched the handle. return.

"What's wrong? It's too hot?" Gu Qian hurriedly asked worriedly.

Jiang Mei hesitated to speak and looked at Gu Qian and Qi Yu who were confused. After hesitating for a long time, she finally asked tentatively, "Well...can I post it on Moments?"

Gu Qian was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized, and nodded with a smile, "Of course."

After getting the approval, Jiang Mei excitedly took out her mobile phone, took a quick photo of the latte in front of her, and then happily posted a circle of friends: "[Picture]

Fortunately, Gu Yinghou made coffee with her own hands! [yeah] [yeah] [yeah]”

After Jiang Mei raised her head contentedly, she found that the two owners of the villa were looking at her with great interest. She immediately felt embarrassed, touched the tip of her nose with her fingers, and said in embarrassment: "Many of my classmates belong to Teacher Gu. Fans, so..."

"It's okay, it's my honor to be liked by you." Gu Qian said softly.

With this little episode, Jiang Mei, who was originally cautious, gradually let go, and seriously discussed the script with Gu Qian and Qi Yu.

"Actually, I'm not sure about a few points." Qi Yu frowned, "First, in your setting, what is the basis for the government's machine to judge whether a resident is a 'drug addict'?"

"The content of phenylethylamine in the body, we usually call it pea." Jiang Mei replied.

Qi Yu said: "Then the heroine, that is, the police officer who holds this machine, has never used "drugs" from the beginning to the end, and logically speaking, the content of pea in her body has not decreased. Why was it finally recognized by the machine as 'drug abuse'?" '? From the viewer's point of view, would this be a bug?"

Jiang Mei's expression became serious, "This is what I want to express. On the surface, the 'drug addicts' who use "drugs" no longer secrete pea in their bodies, and become people without emotions in the physical sense. In fact , People who use cold legal and technological means to suppress equal love are the real 'loveless people'."

Seeing that both Qi Yu and Gu Qian were listening to her carefully, Jiang Mei took a sip of coffee and continued: "As for the final ending of the heroine, there are actually many ways to understand it. It can be understood that the machine was in the hunt for the heroine before. If something goes wrong and the heroine is sentenced, then this is a simple ending of 'the evil will be rewarded with evil'. It can also be understood that the ruthlessness of the heart is more terrifying than the ruthlessness of the body, then this is a purely 'ironic' ending."

Qi Yu nodded thoughtfully, but his brows were still furrowed.Gu Qian glanced at Qi Yu calmly, and said to Jiang Mei: "I understand what you mean. But I must also tell you what difficulties we are about to face."

Jiang Mei stared nervously at Gu Qian, swallowed and said, "Go ahead."

"You know the domestic situation. Sci-fi movies have never been our strong point. Due to the development of science and technology in recent years, hard sci-fi has improved a little bit, but soft sci-fi is almost still standing still. What's more, your script is still dressed You can probably imagine how small the audience is for the sci-fi theme of equal rights for sexual minorities."

"I know. So when I first heard that you and Qi Yu appreciated my script, I was really happy like a dream." Jiang Mei smiled wryly.

"Sister...cough cough, Teacher Gu." Qi Yu changed his words embarrassingly, "Do you think this can be changed? Let Jiang Mei write more fighting scenes and chases when the protagonist hunts down the 'drug addict', trying to keep the core Add some commercial elements to the situation.”

"That's what I want to say." Gu Qian winked at Qi Yu, and then asked Jiang Mei seriously, "Would you like to change it like Xiao Yu said?"

"No problem! I can give it a try!" Jiang Mei's eyes lit up, and she responded immediately.

"No." Xu Man looked at Gu Qian and Qi Yu as if he was looking at a pair of psychopaths. "Whatever you like, I will invest in whatever. I am a charity, right?"

"The script is pretty good. Didn't you always want to produce an award-winning movie, so that Fenghua's position can be stabilized?" Gu Qian said persuasively.

"My Queen Gu Daying, you are too standing up and talking without pain in your back." Xu Man spread his hands helplessly, "I want to produce a good movie, but the problem is that if the box office overturns, the investment money will be in vain. , How can I explain to the board of directors? Now a group of old bones in the company are staring at me, hoping that something will happen to me."

"Don't worry, I won't let you lose money." Gu Qian looked directly at Xu Man, "Fenghua Films is only the producer, and I will contact other potential investors for the remaining funds. In addition, as long as it is a movie that I participate in, The basic box office can be guaranteed, what else do you have to worry about?"

Xu Man: "..."

The huge office fell into an eerie silence. Assistant Xu Man who was at the side watched the three confronting each other, not daring to speak out.

After a long time, Xu Man finally gave in. She said helplessly: "I can invest, but the problem is that movies can't be made without money. Have you contacted a professional producer? If there is no producer, where can I go?" Looking for directors and actors? Who will execute the filming and production? Who will take care of the distribution and publicity after the filming is finished?" Xu Man curled her lips, "Gu Qian, you are really creative. I have never seen an actor come to my office with a script It’s for investment. Let me tell you, if it were someone else today, I would have kicked him out long ago.”

"Who said there is no producer?" Gu Qian stood in front of Xu Man's desk, looked down at her with her arms folded, and raised her eyebrows.

Xu Man sneered, and she pretended to be listening, and teased: "Which big boss is it?"

"Qi Yu." Gu Qian shrugged, and raised her delicate chin to Qi Yu who was beside her.

Qi Yu: "???"

Qi Yu, who was suddenly caught by the cue, was stunned for a second, and then looked at Gu Qian with a horrified expression, not daring to say anything: "Me? I'm going to be the producer?"

Xu Man also frowned, and said in a slightly displeased tone: "Gu Qian, do you think that filming is just a joke? Qi Yu has not understood how to act, so she is a producer? What experience does she have? ?"

"First of all, Qi Yu's acting is very clear. In this regard, as the actress who won the Star Award, I should have more say than you." Gu Qian ignored Xu Man's displeased expression and continued, "Secondly, the novice Producers are not uncommon in the industry, and many even win awards for their first film."

"Okay, I finally understand what you mean." Xu Man sneered, "After tossing for a long time, it turns out that Gu Yinghou, you are doing this to 'make the beauty smile'?"

"If you insist on misinterpreting my meaning, I can't refute it." Gu Qian hooked her lips, "After all, people who have never been in a relationship have a sour perspective on thinking."

Xu Man: "..."

Xu Man's heart was very bitter. She thought that today she was here to discuss film investment, but she didn't expect the couple to show off their affection all morning in the name of negotiating, and in the end Gu Qian would stab her heart hard one knife.

"Okay, I'll invest, Fenghua can be the producer." Without waiting for Gu Qian to speak, Xu Man added, "But don't expect me to spend a lot of money on it, after all, it's such a niche subject matter, I don't want to be taken advantage of. "

After finishing Xu Man, Qi Yu should be in a happy mood at this time, but she was sad and bitter when she was driven off the shelves.

"Sister..." In the nanny's car, Qi Yu said depressedly, "I have never been a producer, what if I mess up this movie?"

"It's okay." Gu Qian said indifferently, "It's okay even if the box office doesn't meet expectations, don't listen to Xu Man's misfortune, she has plenty of money."

Qi Yu: "..."

In the following week, Qi Yu, who became a new producer, stayed up late at night to write the film plan, flew all over the world to meet with the director during the day, and had to do his own work in his spare time, so he was very busy.

What makes Qi Yu even more troublesome is that there are very few directors in China who have experience in shooting soft sci-fi literary films.Well-known big directors don't trust Qi Yu, a newcomer, while those young directors who don't have masterpieces are willing to accept it, but Qi Yu is not at ease.In the past half a month, there has been no progress in the selection of directors.

"I'm broken..." Qi Yu slumped on the sofa, and said in a drawn-out tone, "The great director doesn't care about me at all."

Qi Yu rolled on the bed like a salted fish, and complained: "The one who left me speechless the most is the director Bi, the one who directed "Chasing the Waves Swimming Circle". I said no, and he laughed at me for being 'simple', and I was really convinced." Qi Yu lay on the bed, and vindictively spoke ill of others behind his back, "Hey, tell me, do you think that Director Bi is Isn’t it just a vain name?”

Seeing Gu Qian standing in front of the mirror arranging his clothes, Qi Yu said boredly: "Why don't you find a professional..."

"Then who can I turn to? Which producer is willing to take the risk to accept a literary script written by a college student?" Gu Qian said lightly, "You can give up now, Xu Man must be very happy."

"I'll just say it casually..." Before the words finished, Qi Yu's eyes suddenly went dark. She tore it open and found that it was actually a pair of underwear.

"Put on your clothes and go out. I have an appointment." Gu Qian ordered while adjusting her earrings.

"Ah? I'm exhausted..." Qi Yu had no choice but to put on the bra with a face full of reluctance.

In the private room, Qi Yu sat with a bitter face that had experienced many vicissitudes, "Do you think I should invite a private doctor to come to my house next week to give me a recommendation..."

Before he finished speaking, the door of the box was opened.

"Sorry, I'm late."

"Wang, Director Wang!" The tired look on Qi Yu's face was swept away, and turned into shock and joy.

Qi Yu hasn't seen this great director much since he finished his first movie "The Alley" with Wang Du.When choosing the director of the new movie, Qi Yu also wanted to find Wang Du, but after contacting the other party's assistant, the assistant told him that Wang Du had gone abroad for vacation and would have to rest for half a year, so she reluctantly dismissed the idea.

"I've contacted you. As for whether you can persuade Director Wang to work for you, it's up to you." Gu Qian said slowly.

The author has something to say: Damn... I can't stop writing about movies. I don't know if everyone will feel bored.

The plot outline of the new movie is in Chapter 109, which can help you understand

Then I will introduce to you what the producer does. According to Baidu, it is "responsible for the overall planning, production, and financing of the entire film." In plain English, it means that the producer wants to make a movie. , He wants to raise money, then organize a filming team, manage everyone to finish the film together, and finally find a way to distribute and publicize the film. His work is not very detailed, but mainly depends on his vision and overall planning ability.

This article should be almost over, and my goal is to grasp the rhythm of each chapter.
