Chapter 279 "The Dark Side"

Throughout the New Year's Eve, sit on the Diaoyutai remotely, and watch the tigers fight from the mountain.

"It's enough for you to be an uncle at the racecourse." Chen Zhixi came to Cheng Yu'an.

At this time, Cheng Yu'an was holding the puppy that Liu Yifei was fostering at the racecourse and gently pawing.

"Ah? Do you need me?" Cheng Yu'an asked.

"You really have a bad memory." Chen Zhixi sat down, "A few days ago, I told Wan Qianyangxue that there was a show to find them, but now I forgot it in a blink of an eye? And that newcomer Tong Liya, good guy, once you said that there is something suitable for her She was so happy that she didn't sleep for two days."

"I gave the book to Han Yan, you can go to him directly."

Since "Young Babylon" hit the market in 06, Han Yan worked as an assistant director and producer for Cheng Yu'an for another 3 years.

Cheng Yu'an felt that his heart had sunk, so he gave him another notebook, and personally acted as the producer for him.

"Han Yan has stayed at home for the past few days and has not seen anyone. He has followed your notebook like a demon, revising and revising at home all day long."

"It's not a good book either, as for this."

"This is the first time he's been a director again after three years. If he's going to fail again, he really can't hold his head up in the company." After Chen Zhixi finished speaking, he took out another script from his bag and gave it to Cheng Yu'an, saying, "This Huayi is going public. In the future, he will be a bit arrogant in the circle, poaching people everywhere, and he has poached two screenwriting teams from our literature department."

Cheng Yu'an took the script and replied: "It's normal, we did this before."

In the film and television media industry, there is a lot of personnel turnover.

"This is a new road comedy film released by the company, take a look."

Generally speaking, new scripts from the screenwriting department will not be handed directly to Cheng Yu'an. The company has a complete script review mechanism within the company, and as long as it passes the review, the project can be approved for filming.

Chen Zhixi saw that Cheng Yu'an was too free and wanted to find him a job.

Cheng Yu'an asked Chen Zhixi while watching, "How is the company's audit going?"

"There is no problem with the review."

"If there is no problem, let's shoot." What Cheng Yu'an got was a script written by Shengtang Creation Studio, a screenwriting studio under the company.

It's called "People on the Journey", a road comedy about Spring Festival travel.

The beginning of the "囧" series.

"The polishing is okay, I have no problem, let's shoot."

"I want to find Ning Hao to make this movie." Chen Zhixi said.

"Go ahead and talk about it." Cheng Yu'an doesn't bother him much now, "If he wants to take it, let him take it."

Because "No Man's Land" was shot down, Ning Hao was in a bad mood and lived a leisurely life.

The two chatted while drinking tea. Within half an hour, Han Yan brought Yang Xue and Wan Qian over.

"Brother, this book is good." Han Yan was very happy and excited.

After the failure of "Young Babylon", he felt that it would be better for him not to touch literary films, and the script "The Dark Side" given to him by Cheng Yu'an was exactly what he wanted.

After he got the script, he spent three days perfecting it. The more he thought about it, the more beautiful he felt, but he still didn't forget to show Cheng Yu'an a look.

Immediately called Yang Xue and Wan Qian to the racecourse.

If Liu Yifei is the first sister of Yuanyuan, and "Inception" comes up, then Yang Xue will be after Liu Yifei.

Yang Xue has never played a supporting role in Yuan Yuan, her first role was the heroine of "The Eraser in My Mind", and even in "The Martian", the six astronauts also reserved a place for her.

The heroine of "The Dark Side", shoe designer Liu Jia, was assigned to Yang Xue from the very beginning.

After Cheng Yu'ang and Chen Zhixi finished talking about "On the Journey", they took over the script of "The Dark Side" perfected by Han Yan.

Although the time is not long, Han Yan's consideration of "The Dark Side" is very thorough.

Barely wrote two endings, one is the same as the original space-time version, Liu Jia locked Chen Lu (the barmaid, the hero's new lover) in a secret room, turned around and left, regardless of her life or death.

The second one is an addition to the first edition. After Chen Lu was detained for 3 days, Liu Jia surrendered and the police rescued Chen Lu.

Cheng Yu'an smiled: "Use the second one. The first one will definitely not pass the trial."

In terms of the rhythm of the story, the first ending is of course better, and the darkness will be dark to the end.

But no, you have to consider the audit issue.

Cheng Yu'an looked at Yang Xue and Wan Qian again: "There is a passionate scene in it, is it acceptable?"

"No problem!" The two promised, patting their chests.

In his "Dark Side", Han Yan has already dealt with the passion scene very vaguely.

But some necessary kissing scenes and nudity scenes (certainly not full nudity) are still preserved. I believe the General Administration will not hold on to this standard.

Cheng Yu'an looked at the script and found no major problems: "That's it, Axue will play Liu Jia, Wan Qian will play Chen Lu, Han Yan, you pull up the crew, whether you use company actors or find them from outside is up to you. Organize the actors to thoroughly understand the script before the year, and start work after the year."

Cheng Yu'an asked again: "What is Tangtang doing? The Li Feifei (the violinist who hooks up with the protagonist) can let her play it."

Chen Zhixi said: "Tangtang doesn't have time in the first half of next year, and the company has accepted two TV dramas for her. If you don't want anyone to play the role, let Yang Mi play this role, and she will have a month of free time next year."

"I'm afraid she won't want such a small role. Make up your mind, I won't interfere with your casting." As the company owner, Cheng Yu'an is really not suitable to directly intervene in the casting.

In this way, the people below are not only not able to get exercise, but they are also prone to complaints.

After everyone finished speaking, they got up to leave, but Cheng Yu'an stayed behind and said, "It's already noon, let's go after eating, so as not to say that I, the boss, can't bear to invite you for a meal."

"Okay, then we'll hang out with you today." Chen Zhixi would not be polite to him.

On the contrary, Wan Qian was a little uncomfortable. This was the first time she had eaten Cheng Yu'an's meal, and it was still at the racecourse.

"It's okay, since he said treat, you can eat freely." Chen Zhixi smiled, "Don't treat him as the boss."

"Where are the two grandpas?" Chen Zhixi also called grandpa because of Qin Ranqiu's relationship.

Cheng Yu'an said while cooking: "I went out, and I don't know who took it. The two old men fell in love with bathing. They take bathing as work. They go to the bathhouse by car at nine o'clock in the morning and come back after ten o'clock in the evening."

"I also met a bunch of old men and old ladies in the park. They played cards, danced and played chess with them every day. I was really afraid that they would bring my two grandmothers back one day."

Chen Zhixi smiled and said: "If you don't talk about old children and old children, the older you are, the harder it is to take care of them. After I gave birth to Chuanchuan, Ranqiu's father and my father did the same. The two brothers went fishing together every day, and they went out before dawn. , I don’t come back until eight or nine at night. I recently heard that I want to make an appointment with a group of old men to ride to XZ next year.”

"The two old men in your family have more fun." Cheng Yu'an laughed.

Cheng Yu'an and Chen Zhixi finished the meal and invited everyone to eat together:

"Eat something simple, don't be restrained."

After being seated, Chen Zhixi first said: "You really won't be filming next year?"

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Cheng Yu'an said, "I won't shoot for now, I will bring new people to the company next year, and I have something to do in the United States."

"What's going on in the United States?" Everyone was most curious about Cheng Yu'an's career in the United States, and they signed Cheng Yu'an because of Cheng Yu'an's ticket to Hollywood.

"Bob has been in poor health for the past six months, and he wants to retire early. There are a lot of things in the company waiting for me to deal with. And this year, the company has made two good films. If they want to win the Oscars, I have to be present at the PR session."

"Oscar can do public relations?" Han Yan said.

"Of course it can be public relations. The Oscars are not as sacred as you think, or do you think "Shakespeare in Love" can really do "Saving Private Ryan" and "Life is Beautiful"?"

"When the Oscars came out, Harvey and Gwyneth were scolded."

"Then how sure are you that you will win the prize?"

"Look at the public relations later. The problem is that I am Chinese, and the academy may not let me win the award. Anyway, I have prepared a public relations fee of 3000 million US dollars for the two films. If I buy them, I will also buy back the Oscar trophy."

Since the establishment of a big film company, it has won countless small awards, and no Oscar nominations. Bob wants to draw a perfect end to his career, and Cheng Yu'an must be a veteran who has fought for himself.
