Light and shadow player

Chapter 42
"Remote Media releases another new film, can sci-fi movies break the deadlock? "

"Expansion or Confidence?Cheng Yu'an points to the new field of science fiction! "

When the report came out the next day, it first caused an uproar in the circle.

The current consensus in the circle is that high-quality science fiction cannot be produced in the domestic environment.

Coupled with the landing of the "Matrix" series, domestic filmmakers feel that they cannot achieve the same level of technology.

The teacher Hou Keming called first: "Yu'an, should you think about it again, science fiction is not easy to do, the risk is too great."

"Teacher, the script has been finalized. Sister Fei and Huang Ke have already started to form a crew." Cheng Yu'an is determined to shoot "Butterfly Effect".

"This... In this way, I can't persuade the factory to invest in you." Although Hou Keming is the director of Qingying Film Factory, Qingying Film Factory is not his only one, and he also wants to persuade his subordinates to take out the money.

"It's okay, the money for "Sniper Phone Booth" and "Lian Lian Notebook" has not yet been settled. I know that the factory is difficult, so let's cooperate next time." Cheng Yu'an expressed his understanding.

Then there was a phone call from Secretary Han Sanping, Deputy Director of China Film Group: "Director Cheng, Director Han wants to see you."

"now?"

"Well, please bring the script of that sci-fi movie." The secretary said.

Cheng Yu'an only said that he wanted to make a science fiction film, but did not disclose the name of the film.

What kind of movies does Director Han like?
Big scenes, big productions, big stars, big movies that can pull KPIs.

So when he saw that Cheng Yu'an was going to do science fiction, he became interested.

It's not that he doesn't know that the current environment is extremely unfriendly to sci-fi movies, but he has to give it a try.

The popularity of "Hero" gave him a taste of the sweetness, and his courage to make movies became more and more bold.

Cheng Yuan drove his little Xiali to the China Film Office Building.

Nokia's familiar ringtone.

Cheng Yuan picked up his 7650: "Hello, who is it?"

"Director Cheng, it's me." A man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Cheng Yu'an picked up the phone and saw that it was Ren Zhonglun from Shanghai Film Group: "It's Mr. Ren, do you have anything to do with me?"

Ren Zhonglun said two good words: "Cheng Dao is so courageous, the new film is outstanding, Shanghai Film Group intends to help Cheng Dao, let's talk?" Ren Zhonglun spoke politely.

Cheng Yu'an smiled and said, "Thank you Mr. Ren for being considerate, but I just received a call from China Film Director Han, and I'm on my way to China Film now. Do you think we can talk again in the afternoon?"

Ren Zhonglun's dissatisfaction with China Film Group has accumulated to a level that is about to explode, but this kind of emotion cannot be expressed to Cheng Yu'an, so he can only smile: "That's fine, but I have to say one more thing, our Shanghai Film Group has a great deal this time. sincerity."

"Of course, I am very aware of the strength of Shanghai Film Group." After a few more words of flattery, the two sides hung up the phone.

When I came to the building of China Film Group, I told the doorman that Dong Han had invited me, and the doorman made a phone call to confirm before letting Cheng Yuan in.

"Director Cheng is here."

"Hey, here we come."

"Morning Director Cheng."

"morning."

Along the way, some people took the initiative to say hello to him, and Cheng Yu'an responded to them one by one with a smile.

Entering Han Sanping's office, Director Han was already waiting inside.

"Hello, Director Han."

"Come on, sit down."

As soon as Cheng Yuan sat down, Director Han first asked, "Are there any difficulties in the new film?"

He didn't ask Cheng Yu'an why he wanted to do sci-fi, nor did he persuade him to give up sci-fi and turn to market-pleasing suspense, but directly asked about the difficulties.

Cheng Yu'an shook his head: "There is no difficulty in shooting, but the investment is not very smooth, the company's funds cannot be transferred, and the Qingying Studio has no money."

"Hmm..." Han Sanping mused, he really wanted to invest, but China Film Group is too big. Although he is in charge of the production, it is very difficult to get money from the group, "I will read the script first, and I will fight for you at the meeting if the script is good. "

Cheng Yu'an handed over the script, Han Sanping took a sip of tea, picked it up and began to read.

"Butterfly Effect" is not the kind of sci-fi movie with big scenes and special effects, but a soft sci-fi movie that plays with the concept of time travel.

Cheng Yu'an is not stupid, he knows that the current conditions cannot support him to make great special effects science fiction.

Han Sanping quickly read the script: "Young people's brains are life, how did you come up with such a clever work. It's just this ending..."

The ending given by Cheng Yu'an is that the hero Li Aiwen strangled himself to death with the umbilical cord when his mother returned to give birth.

This is Cheng Yu'an's favorite ending, and it is also the most shocking way to end a sci-fi suspense movie.

"I've also thought about other endings, but none of them are as exciting as this one."

"Okay, the story is very exciting, you go back first, the group has a meeting to study it in the next two days." Han Sanping said.

"Okay, thank you Director Han."

Cheng Yu'an left China Film, and just started Xiao Xiali, when he received a call from Yinhuang and Yingyi Entertainment, all for the same purpose, to invite Cheng Yu'an to dinner and talk about cooperation in science fiction movies.

Cheng Yu'an agreed one by one. In the previous two films, the tripartite cooperation was very pleasant, and there was no reason not to continue the cooperation.

Cheng Yu'an's phone has never been disconnected in the car, but fortunately, Lingfeng has been taking care of the company's affairs, and most of the calls to him are from acquaintances.

An actor friend asked him what requirements he had for the roles in the new film; a fellow writer and director asked him if he needed any more people for the crew.

After finally dealing with the phone calls, Cheng Yu'an also arrived at the company.

"Director Cheng, come and take a look." The company girl shouted.

"what happened?"

"A lot of people came to our company early this morning, saying they were here to audition for a new film, and they couldn't be stopped."

"What about them?"

"I arranged it in the conference room."

Cheng Yu'an walked into the meeting room only now, and found that Wuyang Wuyang was full of people, both familiar and familiar.

"Yu'an." "Cheng Dao."

Those who know him call him Yu'an, and those who don't know him can only call him Dao Cheng.

"Brother Xiaoming, why are you here?" It was Huang Xiaoming who was sitting at the door.

"Come and see what kind of actor your Director Cheng wants, and see if I meet the requirements." The two knew each other well, and they had no scruples about speaking.

"Senior Sister Zeng Li, you are a rare visitor." Zeng Li also came.

"You still recognize me as a senior sister, why didn't you send me a copy of "Lianlian Notebook"? Do you still hate me for rejecting "Sniper Phone Booth"?" Zeng Li approached.

"No way," Cheng Yu'an laughed, "I didn't participate in the casting of "Lian Lian Notebook", it must be Guo Fei's fault."

Cheng Yu'an has always had a way of selling teammates.

In the crowd, someone who knew Zeng Li said bluntly, "You are from the Drama Academy, and Yu'an is from our Film Academy, what kind of senior sister are you?"

Cheng Yu'an looked at the speaker. It was Wen Zhenrong from the Acting Department of the 97th grade. This senior sister was known for her eloquence in school, but she was not bad-hearted and warm and generous.

Cheng Yu'an definitely couldn't let the two women quarrel in the company, so he hurriedly begged for forgiveness: "Everyone, please sit down. Everyone here may or may not know each other, but most of them are my senior brothers and sisters. Who told me that I am the youngest?" Thank you all for coming to my small temple with love.”

After saying a few good words, the scene stabilized.

Cheng Yu'an added: "My new film is called "Butterfly Effect". It's a science fiction film. It's my fault that I didn't mention it before. The main roles needed are three men and one woman, four young actors who are student-like, and two men and two women. A middle-aged actor in his 50s. I'm sorry for those who don't meet the age requirements."

After Cheng Yu'an finished speaking, several people left the company.
