You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 90 Server-wide announcement, Dragon King... No, Director Wang is back! (2, 300 monthly tickets plus more updates)

When Dorothy called Wang Quan to come in, his first words were, "I'm going back to China at the weekend."

"Ah, are you coming back?" Dorothy's heart skipped a beat, fearing that Lao Wang would steal the man from her.

Wang Quan, "Of course I'm back. It's a movie awards ceremony where I will be a guest."

Originally, the other party wanted him to be a judge, but judging would take too long, and he wouldn't have the time, but he could still be a guest.

"What award? Golden Rooster? Huabiao? Didn't you even reject the Academy Award?"

"That's because I was filming at the time and there was really no schedule. I wasn't targeting the Academy Awards."

Wang Quan told her that this time he was approached by the Beijing College Student Film Festival. The organizer got his contact information directly from Nortel without going through an agent, and he didn't get much remuneration, but he was subsidized for transportation, food and accommodation.

"Are you still going?"

"You don't know, I participated in the International Film Festival when I was just in college, but as a volunteer. At that time, I was thinking, it would be great if I could get on the podium of the International Film Festival."

That year Wang Quan was 18, standing in the audience like a gangster. The highest achievement he could see at that time was the Grand Film Festival. As for the Golden Rooster Watch, no matter how high it was, he could only dream about it.

Directors are no better than actors. As long as actors have good roles, they can win awards at a young age. Directors have to endure. If you can direct for the first time at the age of 30, you are considered young and promising. If you can win awards at the age of 40, you are considered young.

The other party also promised to help Wang Quan promote his new film on the day of the closing ceremony. The other party already knew that "10 Cloverfield Lane" would be released in North America and the mainland at the same time.

As soon as Wang Qiankun returned to China, he accepted interviews from many media, including Sohu and Sina, and said excitedly, "I brought my son's works back!" Looking at his wet eyes and emotional look, those who didn't know thought he was bringing his posthumous works. Brought it back.

However, the publicity effect is still quite good. Wang Quan’s recent blog post about visiting DreamWorks all asked about this, which shows that netizens’ expectations are high.

Coming back to the issue of the script, Wang Quan said, "How about it? Which one should be filmed? I'll listen to you."

Dorothy scratched her head and felt very embarrassed, "Well, I want to read both scripts before making a decision. Since you are not leaving now, I will definitely give you an answer before you leave."

Wang Quan said, "Okay, then I'll go cut the trailer."

He wants to prepare a trailer for "10 Cloverfield Lane" for the major film festival. Because this is a movie that cannot be spoiled, this trailer is difficult to edit. The more the trailer reveals, the worse the viewing experience will be. The worse it gets.

Three days later, on the beach in Santa Monica, Gadot was happily surfing alone. Wang Quan returned to the shore after drinking enough sea water, and next to him was Dorothy, who was wearing a swimsuit and had a graceful figure.

Wang Quan took a sip of her juice to calm down his shock, "When you come out to play, come out to play. When you talk about work, talk about work. If you have to mix it up, tell me which one to shoot."

"I can see that you have invested more in script A, with richer details, denser laughs, and amazing echoes of script A. Just looking at the first part, I like script A better."

"Just say but."

Dorothy, "But at the end of the movie, Juno and Brick were not together, and Juno almost had a dystocia when she gave birth. She eventually had her uterus removed and could never have children again. In order to fulfill her obligations to Mark and Venisa, she Even though Juno finally made it to college and seemed to have a bright future, she could never have another child."

"A bit cruel?"

"It's too cruel. It's so sweet at the beginning but so bitter at the end. If we did a trial screening survey, I'm afraid it wouldn't get high marks from the audience. But the judges might like the cruel youth scene."

"So what's your answer, A or B?"

Dorothy was silent for a moment, "It's still A. Juno and Brick don't have to be together. What you wrote is very reasonable and more profound. It's more unexpected than the cliché family reunion. But in the end, the removal of the uterus must be changed. It was difficult to give birth and finally passed smoothly. OK."

She even used a pleading tone. During the period of creating "Juno", she saw the artist's persistence and stubbornness in Wang Quan.

But soon she realized that she might have been wrong. Wang Quan said, "Okay, I will correct it for you before returning to China."

Ah, why did you compromise so easily? No fight at all? What about your persistence as an artist?

Seeing the curve of Wang Quan's mouth after he put down his sunglasses, Dorothy suddenly realized that she must have let this guy deceive her. Did he never think about filming according to the ending of A?

Two days later, Wang Quan put the revised "Juno" script on Dorothy's desk, with a backpack on him, "I have to catch a plane, this script is what it is, no changes are allowed."

After saying that, he left. Dorothy hurriedly turned to the end. Well, yes, although Juno encountered dystocia, which made people feel heartbroken, she passed the test smoothly in the end and the mother and child were safe.

Later, Juno went to college and once met the child and his adoptive mother Venisa.

Wait, this paragraph didn't exist in the beginning, why did I add such a chance encounter?

Dorothy read it word by word. Suddenly, she turned to the front again and compared it with one of the passages. After reading it, she couldn't help but feel chills on her back.

"Well, King David, this ending is even darker!" Dorothy cursed, but she was smiling. However, most people couldn't see the real ending. It was enough to fool the ordinary audience, and she even thought about it herself. It's been a long time, and I'm still not sure if it's really what I think.

And when experienced judges see such an ending, they should find it as interesting as themselves.

That’s it, shoot it!

Dorothy has a feeling that time waits for no one, and she must have a place in next year's Oscars!

Now she can't wait to contact Anne and ask her to help find a suitable candidate for Juno, so that she can directly cast the role after King Quan returns.

At Los Angeles International Airport, Wang Quan actually arrived more than an hour early because he had to pick up someone first.

"Hey, senior sister!" After more than a month, Wang Quan met Yu Feihong again.

The two hugged each other, and Wang Quan said, "What a coincidence. I had to leave just as you arrived. You can only wait for me to come back before making an appointment."

Yu Feihong looked at Wang Quan and said, "Not bad, major film festivals have asked you to be a guest."

Wang Quan was modest, "It's just a false reputation. Are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry. I had a bowl of California beef noodles at the Capital Airport."

Wang Quan smiled, "Then you can eat it. You won't be able to eat California beef noodles when you get to California."

Yu Feihong was easily amused by him.

Just now Wang Quan received Yu Feihong, and now it is Yu Feihong's turn to send Wang Quan away.

Beijing, a certain villa.

Liu Xiaoli knocked on Liu Yifei's door, "Sissi, have you packed your luggage for returning to the United States?"

Liu Yifei opened the door, "Everything is ready, Mommy."

"Look at you, aren't you just able to meet Director Li Bian? You'll be so excited." Seeing her daughter's blushing face, Liu Xiaoli joked.

Just after Liu Xiaoli left, Liu Yifei received a call from class monitor Wang Jia, "Yifei, would you like to go to the awards ceremony of the Film Festival today? Our class has a lot of tickets."

"Ah, I'm not going to Sister Jia. I have to go abroad. Time is tight. Thank you."

"it's okay no problem."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Yifei came to the floor-length mirror and started the simulation for an unknown number of times, "Hello fellow student, let's get acquainted again. I am Liu Yifei. You can call me Sissy, or you can call me Honey. )...No, no, it's too greasy, come again..."

"Again!"

The plane bumps violently in the air. This feeling is too familiar. It was like this when Wang Quan took a plane to the United States, and then he had a "film and television library" in his head.

But unfortunately, this bump was just a pure bump, and there was nothing after it.

Oh, no, there was an extra piece of paper in his pocket, with a phone number and a lip print on it. Wang Quan looked up and saw a good-looking stewardess winking at him.

This is not the first time Wang Quan has encountered this kind of thing, and he accepts it with good intentions, but there should be something better waiting for him tonight.

After getting off the plane, we took a taxi back to Lazhu Hutong.

As soon as he got into the taxi, Wang Quan felt something was wrong, "Master, he looks a bit familiar."

"I still remember you, virgin!"

Fate, wonderful beyond words.

"You deceived me," the driver started chattering, "I thought you were really a pornographic film director, but it turns out you are a serious film director, and you have a rumored girlfriend who is a Hollywood star. You are really a Tesco!"

One day he read the entertainment news newspaper, and the front page headline said that a Chinese director had hooked up with a big star in the United States, and they were having fun with the big star in the car. When he saw it, wasn't this the virgin director that day?

Wang Quan hesitated and wanted to get off the car, but couldn't, so he could only change the subject, "Master, what kind of radio drama are you listening to?"

"The days of living with a stewardess have become very popular recently. It was adapted from a novel," the master added, "You don't need to change the subject, and I won't inquire about your privacy. I'm a celebrity, so I understand."

"Haha, thank you for understanding."

"Then why are you coming back this time? Are you coming back to celebrate May Day?"

Wang Quan, "Have you heard of the Beijing College Student Film Festival?"

The master shook his head, "It sounds like a campus award. It's a bit far from your level."

Then Wang Quan gave the driver some science knowledge about the origin of the Big Film Festival, which is sponsored by Beijing Normal University and Beijing Radio and Television, and co-organized by many departments or organizations such as Movie Channel, Beijing Radio, and China Film Foundation. A film festival featuring "Watch and Review by College Students".

It has been 13 years since the Grand Film Festival was founded, and its influence has grown. It can almost be said to be the fourth largest film event in the mainland after Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers.

After hearing this, the driver said "Oh" several times in succession, and then said, "I still don't understand why it is so important? After all, it is an award judged by college students, which is not authoritative."

Wang Quan thought for a while and replied, "Maybe it's because college students are the hope of the future, not masters. Can you please turn up the volume on the radio? It sounds exciting to me."

However, after a while, the radio drama ended, and the driver was helpless, "You can't listen to it until tomorrow, but I've heard it before, so why don't I tell you about it."

King Quan, "No, no, no, spoilers are pointless, and it's almost here."

The driver said, "Director Wang, I want to discuss something with you."

"You say."

"I've hooked you up again this time. I think we are particularly destined. Can I tell my colleagues the good news about your return to China?"

Wang Quan laughed, "What can't be said?"

"Hey, okay."

Putting Wang Quan at the entrance of the alley, the driver immediately used the intercom to announce the news to all the drivers on duty, "Hey, guess what, didn't I get the director named Wang last time? This time I got him again!"

Channel 1, "What, which Director Wang is this?"

"It's Director Wang who slept with big Hollywood stars!"

Channel 2, "Is that the exchange student director?"

Channel 3, "Is this Director Wang who fought against Liu Yifei?"

Channel 4, "Oh oh oh, I remember, was it in a Mazda car..."

Channel 5, "..."

For a time, all the drivers of the taxi company knew about it, and at the same time, their passengers also heard about it. Some did not know Wang Quan, some had heard of it, and some were even familiar with it.

Pushing the door open and walking into his home, there was no one at home, which was normal. Lao Wang must be very busy now, with theaters and movies to attend to.

He called his father, and Lao Wang said, "Okay, okay, I'll go back right away."

Wang Quan lay down for an unknown amount of time, then stood up after hearing the movement outside the door, and then saw Wang Qiankun in a suit and tie. He was tugging on his tie and slurping water, "I just came back from China Film Studio, and these people are so difficult to deal with. "

"What's wrong?"

Wang Qiankun said that as an imported film, China Film is responsible for distribution, and China Film is also responsible for publicity and copying. After all, their fees are much higher than those of foreign film studios.

Wang Qiankun felt that he was at a huge disadvantage, so he asked them to get more copies for him, and also provided a publicity plan, hoping to help his son make a big move.

But the other party is not happy. If you approve the film, you still want to get the treatment of a blockbuster movie, which is almost enough. The same is true for other approved films.

However, Wang Qiankun did know some brains at China Film, and the other party gave in. As the copyright owner of the film in the Mainland, Wang Qiankun could take 20% of the share, but he had to handle the publicity, distribution and copying himself.

In the end, Wang Qiankun brought up Wang Quan's uncle's name. When the other party heard this, he said, Oh, Mr. Mei, and then they talked about 25%~

It's a pity for Lao Wang that his son is Chinese, but his movies still don't get the treatment of domestic films. China Film Group doesn't have to do anything and just takes 10%.

Wang Quan is not surprising. He may have some fame in the film industry, but China Film belongs to the film industry and more importantly to national enterprises and institutions. His fame cannot change their rules.

Moreover, 25% has exceeded expectations, and the possibility of Lao Wang getting back his capital and making a small profit has once again increased.

But he still had to form a distribution team.

Yes, theaters, theaters, distribution, production, all working together!

Then Lao Wang talked about the theater chain again, and then Wang Quan's cell phone rang.

Wang Quan was a little surprised when he saw the name of the caller, "Hey, Jia Ni, yes, I just came back from the United States, how did you know..."

(Writing this chapter seems to be back to the starting point~)
