This star is from the earth

Cai Chusheng, a director in the period of the Republic of China, said: "A screenwriter and director should not just put a story on film and finish the work, but at least he should be a writer, a writer with a unique style and correct understanding that is owned by the public. "

Han Jueshen took it for granted, and before teaching Xiao Zhou the director's techniques, he first trained Xiao Zhou's text creation ability.

No matter what the field is, the opposition between Yeluzi and the academic school is always widespread. Han Jue was born in Yeluzi in his previous life, but he would not despise the academic school, he doesn't care about the school, he only cares about learning. So Han Jue also knocked on textbooks, referring to the courses of Hollywood script creation to train himself.

Han Jue used the academic approach to lay the foundation for Xiao Zhou. A lot of training.

Han Jue has no secrets, and teaches with all his money. Xiao Zhou is required to write dozens of pages every week, and Xiao Zhou is so busy that he has no time to shoot Han Jue's video.

After Xiao Zhou finished writing, Han Jue would ask the team members to read aloud and discuss, and at the same time he would also comment.

"There are too many clauses. How can anyone speak like this in life? Let the character spit out the stone in his mouth before speaking."

"Plain words don't mean vulgarity."

"Never waste pen and ink writing what the camera can't catch."

"Psychological description is unnecessary. The screenwriter should leave part of the role creation space to the actors, instead of using language to manipulate the actors."

Xiao Zhou has been with Han Jue for more than half a year, and has already figured out Han Jue's resolute and easy-going temperament in small matters. For Han Jue, he respects Han Jue, but he is not very afraid. But when Han Jue was teaching him, the bold Xiao Zhou didn't dare to joke at all. When Han Jue picked up his script, Xiao Zhou's heart was pounding with fear. Han Jue just frowned and flattened, looked up and down, these few small expressions made Xiao Zhou's heart fluctuate, and he felt like he had returned to his miserable childhood.

There is no limit to the types of homework assigned by Han Jue, and Xiao Zhou is asked to write stories that interest him. Xiao Zhou wrote about the collapse of social animals into killers, and also about the struggles of transgender groups, with a wide span. Correspondingly, it is necessary to read books in many fields, and continue to write after reading, and write every day.

Sometimes Xiao Zhou can even count his hair in front of the mirror in order not to put his hands on the keyboard to type. But under the persecution of Han Jue, Xiao Zhou had to continue writing.

"If a writer really wants to start writing, he must first abandon the naive idea of ​​enjoying writing. Enjoyment is something for the audience, and it is something after completion. There is no fun in writing, only after writing."

Making money is a boring thing, but Xiao Zhou thinks it is romantic.

Xiao Zhou experienced the pain of professionalism for the first time, and it was not easy to study after work. But no matter what, he gritted his teeth and refused to give up. He felt that if he gave up just here, he would lose many, many tangible and intangible things. Get over it, it's a bumper harvest.

"What are you guys talking about?" Jalens came in from the door with a bliss that couldn't be concealed by sunglasses, and flung a takeaway lunch bag in his hand. Guan Yi immediately went to pick it up.

"It's nothing, just an assignment." Han Jue said.

Xiao Zhou greeted Jalens with a sad face.

After lunch, Jalens walked around Han Jue's high-end apartment with a monthly rent of 50,000 yuan, and said, "This place is too broken!"

Han Jue didn't respond, he didn't expect Jarrence to say anything good when he came to his new home from the beginning.

"I'll buy you a villa!" Jarrence said.

"Forget it, I can't afford the maintenance and insurance." Han Jue took out his lunch and greeted everyone to eat lunch. "It's just a place to stay, not a permanent residence."

Jalens sat down while muttering that he didn't want some money.

"What's going on?" Han Jue asked.

"It went well," Jalens said with a smug face, and let out a strange smile like a night owl. "When they heard that it was our company, they welcomed it very much."

Jarrence followed Han Jue to the United States this time because of the film company. Their film production company, with Jarrence's financial resources and Xia Yuan's execution ability, immediately set up a framework. As for the filling of talents, although several newcomers in their industry have produced a very topical and seemingly good quality "Time and Space Traveler", it is still not attractive to talents.

Wang Zhi, one of the shareholders, said that it is cost-effective to go to the United States to find talents to fill the skeleton.

Han Juexia and Yuan Jalens agreed.

So there was Jarrence's homecoming, and he wanted to recruit talents.

The news even shocked American officials. In fact, there are a few films in [Glorious and American Co-production] every year, but people in the industry know that the cooperation is just a nice word. The so-called [Glorious and Beautiful Co-production] is just invested by local tyrants in the United States. Huaxia gives an insignificant character with only one or two lines of lines, and the cooperation is over. The production team of the film is still Chinese. With this kind of cooperation, even if a hundred movies are made, the American side can't learn any skills. In the end, they are still taking advantage of the money and being satisfied with the appearance of American faces in the movies.

In recent years, the most authentic [Gorgeous Co-production] movie, "Time and Space Traveler" is well-deserved.

Han Jue, an old friend of the American people, has a well-known reputation. In the extremely xenophobic Chinese film and television industry, he boldly uses American faces. There are many American figures in the main creative team. He is a director who truly treats Americans equally. And a very talented director.

Now that Han Jue has built a bridge like a party leading the way, how can they remain indifferent?

Those actors who want to be like Jack and Jennifer, looking forward to becoming famous overnight, are moved, filmmakers who want to go to China to learn advanced technology and then feed back to the motherland are moved, and those who have ambitions for China's film and television industry are also moved. Huaxia is even more excited when it comes to gold-plating to increase its value.

Jalens has recently become the new darling of the social scene in film and television. The official staff of the United States received Jalens cordially and invited Han Jue to come to the United States to shoot a movie next time. Those in the capital circle want to invest, and those in the film and television circle want to cooperate.

The team brought by Jalens followed the list provided by photographers Amanda and Jennifer to recruit film talents in front of and behind the stage. The process went smoothly and the other party was very interested.

Han Jue heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Jalens' results report.

On the one hand, I am happy for the company, and on the other hand, I am happy for myself.

Now he is backed by [Blue Whale] in China, and has official protection in the United States. From now on, if he turns on [Ai Du], he will no longer be restricted by [Ai Du] in his career.

"You can pull it up right after work. What do you want to shoot next?" Jarrence asked Han Jue with great interest. He is now waiting to watch Han Jue's movie.

Han Jue pawed at the rice and said vaguely, "I haven't figured it out yet."

"Why don't you shoot cops and gangsters?" Jalens cheered up, and he couldn't forget his gangster movies, "Just shoot "Modern Invincible Hot-blooded Police Detective"! You direct, I don't worry!"

Han Jue felt a headache.

"Has Director Sun signed?" Han Jue asked his assistant director.

"Signed."

"Let Director Sun lead a team to make a movie. It's a pity that he has been an assistant director with his ability."

"Xia Yuan said the same thing, but Director Sun said that he hasn't found the script he wants to make yet."

"What kind of movie does Director Sun want to make?"

"It's suspenseful. It's low-cost. I really don't know what you guys are being polite about. You all said that the company is not short of money." Jalens shook his head: "Xia Yuan went to ask some screenwriters for a copy, I read it Take a look, it's super boring, and the writing is worse than mine!"

"Xiao Zhou, take my notebook." Han Jue asked Xiao Zhou to bring over his notebook for recording inspiration. I flipped through it, turned to one of the pages, found a line of words, thought for a while, and said:

"The protagonist is an engineer. After his wife died, he raised his daughter alone, but he didn't have much communication with his daughter. One day his daughter suddenly disappeared. The police suspected that the daughter had run away from home. After filing the case, the protagonist told him to wait and see. The protagonist Unable to wait, he firmly believed that he was missing, so he launched an investigation on his own. He opened his daughter's laptop and searched for clues in social software and live broadcast software... Therefore, most of the plots are displayed through the computer page. The method is relatively new, and the market There hasn’t been a film of this kind yet, and it will be a dark horse. How do you feel?”

"It's okay, okay." Jalens nodded.

Han Jue turned a few more pages and found a line that said: "The protagonist's wife was killed, and he wanted revenge. But he suffers from [short-term memory loss] and can only remember what happened ten minutes ago. In order to To avenge the tragic death of his wife, the protagonist uses tattoos, notes, and snapshots to preserve memories, collect clues, and conduct investigations. ... How about this?"

"Not bad." Jalens nodded repeatedly.

Han Jue turned the pages again, and when he turned to reading, he read three or four stories in a row. Although there are only about twenty or thirty words in each story in the notebook, Han Jue read out hundreds of words. The characters in each story have personalities, motivations for doing things, suspense in the story, and a complete structure.

Xiao Zhou next to him was dumbfounded.

[This, this feeling... Could it be the feeling of Zhang Zishang learning music from the boss? ! 】

After listening to a few times, Jalens said with emotion: "Xia Yuan said that you can be worth ten screenwriters by yourself. It's true! I'll ask Director Sun to contact you when the time comes!"

"Okay." Han Jue put down his notebook and continued to eat.

Jalens suddenly thought of something, frowned and asked Han Jue: "Your book is all ideas? Every idea is a story?"

Han Jue nodded.

Jalens said "Oh", lowered his head and took two mouthfuls of rice, then suddenly raised his head and said viciously: "Then you still say you don't know what to shoot?! There are so many stories, just pick any one to shoot!"

"..." Han Jue held the notebook with an innocent expression on his face, "I don't know which one to take..."

That look was like standing in front of a closet full of clothes, picking them out and finally saying that he had nothing to wear.

Xiao Zhou vowed that he would never make fun of Zhang Zishang again.
