From traffic to movie star

Chapter 375
The explosion of "Chain Saw" is largely due to its unimaginable, heavy-tasting and tortured plot.

Barbed wire escape is just one of them.

Also included is the 'Password Wall' game.

An unlucky ghost with the same fate as Adam woke up in a closed room.

He was injected with slow poison, and the antidote was locked in a safe.

To take out the antidote and survive, this unlucky ghost had to walk on the floor full of glass shards with a candle, take the surrounding walls to read the code, and try again and again, but he didn't know it was so simple, the murderer painted him with flammable substances, If you are not careful, you will be affected by the flame of the candle, and your whole body will be burnt.

But... In order to see the codes on the surrounding walls clearly, he had to walk around on the ground full of glass shards with his bare feet holding a candle.

The glass ball under his feet hurt more and more, and the password could not be opened again and again. The chronic poison made his consciousness weaker and weaker, but the pain made him more and more irritable... The last accident, the candle touched The inflammables on his body burned up, turning him into a charred corpse.

When everyone followed Wei Xun through one murder scene prop room after another, after listening to these heavy-duty stories described by Wei Xun, they all felt their faces turn pale.

"A perverted plot."

"I feel a little scalp numb now, how did I come up with this?"

"But it seems... that's what horror and bloody movies want. Anyway, this kind of movie can't be shown in China. It seems that our ideas can't be used as a reference. It's better to listen to Charles's ideas."

When Bao Qiang and Kang Cheng said this, they all looked at Charles.

The actor Bao Qiang invited from the actor's guild is the only American here.

After "Saw" is filmed, it will be released in the United States.

"I think... cool."

Charles’ eyes were very bright at the moment, he followed Wei Xun to visit several prop rooms, and after listening to the short story designed by Wei Xun, he said with a slightly excited expression: "Dude, you are simply a genius with heavy tastes, such a plot, in the United States There is definitely a large audience willing to pay for the R-rated film market, maybe you can really make a very good movie. I am a horror movie lover myself, and my feeling will definitely not go wrong!"

Looking at Charles with an excited expression, Bao Qiang and Kang Cheng looked at each other.

Then the hearts of the four directors began to beat faster.

They looked at Charles with a determined face, and then at Wei Xun, thinking in their hearts... maybe, maybe this "Chain Saw" might really open up the market in the United States?

After all, the cultures of regions around the world are different. For example, Chinese comedy films cannot achieve results in the Omi market because the jokes of the two countries are different.

But fear, blood, fear, these emotions are interlinked.

Perhaps this is why Wei Xun chose to use R-rated horror films in the United States as an entry point to open up the market.

However, seeing the somewhat excited faces of the Chinese people present, Charles poured cold water on them again.He frowned and said, "But with all due respect, you have a very fatal problem."

Very fatal problem?
Wei Xun raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and asked, "What's the problem?"

"He is a Chinese."

Charles pointed to Kang Cheng, and said regretfully, "If you can replace the leading actor Adam with an American, the film should have a good box office when it is released, because I have never seen a film with a Chinese as the leading actor." Movies can achieve success in Hollywood."

After he finished speaking, everyone at the scene fell silent.

Kang Cheng said hesitantly: "Or replace me, anyway, I just started filming now..."

"Why should you be replaced? There has never been a movie with a Chinese leading actor that can break through in Hollywood, so this movie we made is more meaningful, isn't it? It didn't before, it doesn't matter, but from us Start, and there will be."

Wei Xun interrupted him with a smile, and said, "To put it bluntly, Hollywood is just a gathering place for filmmakers. What we have to do now is to walk in and get an admission ticket."

It was obviously a very calm tone, but Wei Xun said these words, as if with a certain self-confidence that was almost arrogant.

Kang Cheng, Bao Qiang and others were all moved by his strength.

Who said that Chinese people can't make achievements in Hollywood, isn't everyone working hard to make a difference now?

There is also China's best young director like Wei Xun leading the team, so why bother!
It's done!
"I think Director Wei is right, aren't we shooting a movie right now?"

"Moreover, the horror plot of "Saw" has already moved Charles, and it may not move more Americans, or even people all over the world."

"If the five of us don't have the confidence to enter Hollywood, how can we expect young domestic filmmakers to go abroad."

After hearing Wei Xun's words, Bao Qiang and the others were full of energy.

Charles looked at the group of young Chinese directors who were bursting with confidence, and muttered hesitantly: "Damn it, I actually kind of believe that you guys will succeed. This simply broke my view of Chinese filmmakers."

"It's not that we believe we will succeed, it's that we must succeed."

Wei Xun smiled and said, "Okay, let's continue shooting. At night, you finish the barbed wire scene. Kang Cheng will be the director, and Bao Qiang and I will be in charge of editing the film."

This is how time is saved.

Editing while shooting, basically, the film can be cut out after the two-week shooting cycle is completed.

As for editing rooms, they can be rented in Hollywood.

In addition to Charles, the few roles needed in the film are also easy to rent suitable actors from the Screen Actors Guild.

With the encouragement of Wei Xun, Kang Cheng, Bao Qiang, Lin Fan and Xiao Xiaoyang's work enthusiasm is surprisingly high.

As the youngest and best young directors in Huaxia, everyone wants to work hard and make some achievements in Hollywood.

Therefore, Wei Xun and Kang Cheng took turns to shoot, and the rest of the time was used to edit the film and polish the lines. The shooting progress of "Chain Saw" is very gratifying. After only 12 days, it is almost finished.

And at this moment, on domestic forums, news suddenly broke out that Wei Xun, who was going to study in Hollywood in the United States, actually made a bet with Baldwin.

A gamble worth $1000 million.

Wei Xun intends to spend 20 days shooting a horror movie to challenge Baldwin's "Ghost Baby".

As soon as this news came out, it sparked a discussion on the domestic Internet.

20 days to make a movie, a bet of 1000 million US dollars, are you sure you are not joking?
