Chapter 236 Schedule the next work (34) (Happy New Year, good luck)
"Glory of the Tang Dynasty", a script that combines the stories of "The Last Transfer in Mobei of the Tang Dynasty" and "The Little Soldier"...
This story belongs to the classic script of friendship - "Save the Cat" ten movie genres...
In the beginning, the partners hated each other. How would the story develop if it wasn't like this?
But their shared experience underscores the fact that none of them could do without the other; indeed, they are all imperfect halves of a whole.
Shen Xudong continued: "...At the end of the movie, the refugee arrived in Xizhou with a purse on his back... He was greeted by white-haired soldiers all over the city... Just as he handed in the purse and was about to leave, the Tubo invaded..."
"So did he stay?"
"Sure..."
"Then is he dead or alive?"
"...definitely dead..."
After hearing this story, the scene was a bit solemn...
"is that true?"
"...The story is of course fictitious, but after the Anshi Rebellion, the Western Regions were cut off from Chang'an and lost all support. Guo Ziyi's nephew Guo Xin led the Anxi Army to guard the Western Regions for more than forty years..."
Huang Zhonglei was stunned for a while, and then said: "This story...is not a hit!"
Shen Xudong nodded: "So, I want to find Jackie Chan to play the soldier..."
"Jackie Chan as a soldier...is he good?"
Only then did Shen Xudong realize that Jackie Chan hadn't transformed at this time...
And before "Myth", he had never made a costume film!
"Jackie Chan doesn't seem to be planning to come to the mainland to develop?"
"He will definitely come to the mainland, Hong Kong is too small..."
"that is…"
“…Look at the box office for New Police Story…”
A few people chatted with Jackie Chan in one word, and around "New Police Story"...
As for "Glory of the Tang Dynasty"...
It's like being forgotten!
Also, the book "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" has a big problem - destroying national unity!
How could Huayi invest in such a film?
……
Shen Xudong took the glass, walked to the dining table, put down the wine glass, scooped up a plate of honey-juice plum meat, and prepared to eat something...
The scene is arranged as a buffet.
He is still quite hungry.
After taking a bite, Deng Jie came over: "Eat something?"
"...Well, Auntie, what's the matter?"
"Here is a red envelope for you!"
"Hey, there are red envelopes? Thank you, auntie!"
Shen Xudong didn't open it at all, and put the red package directly into his pocket...
It's quite thin, and it's estimated to be only a few hundred yuan!
Deng Jie's expression was a little strange: "Why don't you open it and have a look?"
"…Do it."
Shen Xudong waved his hand: "Auntie won't treat me badly anyway!"
"...Where are you going next?"
"Going to Venice..."
"Venice? Oh, Distinguished Citizen is in competition..."
Deng Jie nodded: "Eat first, I'll go greet the others!"
"Um…"
Shen Xudong watched her walk over, continued to eat, and then... a gust of fragrant wind blew over, he turned his head, it was Huo Shiyan...
It's normal for Huo Shiyan to appear on such an occasion, the Huang family brothers like to take her to participate in wine games...
"The big screenwriter is eating?"
"Um... what's wrong?"
Huo Shiyan rolled his eyes at him, and said coquettishly: "...Can't I chat with you if I have nothing to do?"
"…you say…"
"I heard them talking about Jackie Chan, do you have a new script?"
"...No, you're thinking too much, listening to them discussing the National Day schedule..."
"Oh... so do you have any new works?"
"I signed up for the sketch contest of Chinese opera, and I don't have time to write a new script for now..."
"Then if there is a new script in the future, think of me more!"
Shen Xudong said politely: "It must be..."
Huo Shiyan looked at him and frowned slightly: "Do you not like me?"
Shen Xudong was stunned for a moment: "...No."
"Then why don't you look at me?"
"Isn't that impolite... Aunt Xu Fan is looking for me, I'll go there first!"
Shen Xudong immediately put aside Huo Shiyan, turned around and walked towards Xu Fan...
How should I put it, Huo Shiyan made him feel uncomfortable...
Yes, he doesn't mind discussing art, but it's only limited to a certain group of people. A woman like Huo Shiyan, he can't hold it!
Well, to be honest, he felt that Huo Shiyan couldn't help him.
……
"Aunt Fan..."
Shen Xudong walked up to Xu Fan and greeted him, who smiled at him: "I heard you are going to Venice?"
"Well... the crew invited me."
"Tsk tsk, it's amazing, Venice Film Festival!"
Shen Xudong quickly explained: "...No, the movie is serious and hard to sell. We can only promote it through the film festival to see if we can sell overseas copyrights, and find a way to make up for it..."
"Then next time you have a script suitable for a film festival, remember to bring it to Director Feng..."
"it is good!"
Shen Xudong responded without saying anything like 'Feng Xiaogang is a commercial director'...
Feng Xiaogang is actually quite artistic
Unfortunately, there is no way out for literature and art.
Even though he succeeded in gaining a reputation in the Lunar New Year film, in the film industry, Feng Xiaogang, who was born on the fringes, did not occupy both ends.
He is neither a film aristocrat nor a professional graduate.
Even though some people think he is a genius, he is still regarded as "a person without talent" by mainstream film producers.
He needs a work of sufficient weight to add a deep and influential work or two to his résumé, preferably one of those epic…
Prove yourself!
Later, he made "1942"...
But at that time, he wanted both fame and box office...
I really don’t understand this thing, you said you were ready to lose money, why did you get wronged later?
Feng Xiaogang came over: "What are you talking about?"
Xu Fan smiled at him: "... make an appointment for you..."
Feng Xiaogang's eyes lit up: "Do you have a new work?"
Shen Xudong hurriedly shook his head: "...No, I followed you on a publicity campaign recently, and I didn't get enough sleep. How could I have the energy to think about new works?"
"...If you have new works, you must show me first!"
Shen Xudong nodded: "Well... definitely."
……
In fact, Shen Xudong made a mistake in his judgment. Feng Xiaogang did have a sense of inferiority, and he really wanted to add one or two profound and influential works to his resume, but... "Lonely" is already considered an influential work up!
Discussed by the whole people, the media praised Feng Xiaogang as "a director with a sense of social responsibility"...
These are all the treatment he didn't enjoy before, and these compliments he got when he confronted Ah Mou...
Undoubtedly, this compliment made him feel good...
Most importantly, "Lost Orphans" is also a big seller, allowing him and Zhang Guoli's company to start a happy business!
It was indeed a successful opening. Zhang Guoli's self-directed and acted "Scent of Sophora Blossoms in May" ranked first in ratings during the same period. It was sold to more than 100 TV stations across the country with a profit margin of at least [-]%. When it comes to movies, the profit margin is even higher!
At this time, Feng Xiaogang hasn't swelled up yet, so of course he knows that all of this is inseparable from Shen Xudong's script...
So, Shen Xudong received another red envelope...
