I just want to make idol dramas

Chapter 8 meet
Tianhai Films
Zhang Lin walked into Li Wenjun's office early in the morning. As Li Wenjun's official producer, Zhang Lin has followed him all over the country over the years. Basically, she is behind every movie, and she created it all by herself. Li Wenjun's current status in the arena.

Seeing Li Wenjun and Zhang Lin, she cut to the chase and said, "Wenjun, here's a book for you to read."

Although the news that Li Wenjun was going to make a new movie was not announced with great fanfare, he did not intend to hide it from insiders. In the past two days, a lot of notebooks have been handed in one after another, which may make Zhang Lin look for his script early in the morning. This is still the first.

Li Wenjun took the script and glanced at the cover——

"Crash"

Screenwriter: Jin Woo

He couldn't help frowning, and Zhang Lin explained: "Don't think about it, I'm a newcomer, but I read the book and it's not bad."

For his vision as a producer, Li Wenjun still believes that the projects she has produced over the years have never failed.

He calmed down and read carefully, combined with Xiao Yu's meticulously prepared sub-shots, a wonderful story unfolded before his eyes.

The screenplay prepared by Jin-Woo is "Crash", directed by Paul Haggis, which won Best Picture at the 78th Academy Awards.

The story of the film takes place in Los Angeles, a big city of all colors and classes, because of the discrimination caused by an ordinary car crash.

However, the misunderstandings and conflicts among different races, different classes, and different groups of people reflected in the film still exist in today's Jianguo.So Xiao Yu thinks that this is a film that Director Li Wenjun can make that can be understood by people in Jianguo and recognized by Hollywood, and even won an award after being operated by a Hollywood production company.

Beijing Film Academy
Xiao Yu, who had just finished a major class, was going to talk to Shen Xingyi. Although the TV series was written, the heroine couldn't be given to her, but before he could find Shen Xingyi, the phone rang first, and it was He Yuehua.

"Hello, Aunt Hua."

"Xiaoyu, do you have class in the afternoon?" He Yuehua's tone was a little anxious.

"No la."

"Okay, change into decent clothes and see you at the gate of your school in half an hour. Li Wenjun wants to see you."

Li Wenjun had thought about seeing himself, Xiao Yu, but he didn't expect it to be so fast. The notebook had just been handed in and he responded the next day. It seemed that his first step was more confident.

When Zhang Lin led Xiao Yu into the office, Li Wenjun couldn't believe it. When Zhang Lin said that the screenwriter was a newcomer, he thought it was just because he returned to China to write the script for the first time.

In his imagination, the screenwriter of this film should be a middle-aged man who has lived in Jianguo or even Hollywood for a period of time. He has encountered discrimination in the workplace and experienced world events to write such a profound sentiment.He should have a good literary quality, solid screenwriting and even directing skills, so that he can write a multi-line narrative so wonderfully and draw the sub-camera in such detail.

But what's the situation now?The person in front of him is so handsome despite his young age, if he hadn't made an appointment in the afternoon, he would have thought that this young man came to audition!
Xiao Yu had only met Li Wenjun on the news before, and when meeting him for the first time, he went up to say hello respectfully:
"Hi Director Li!"

"Sit down, Jin-Woo, have you ever studied script writing before?"

Xiao-Woo nodded: "I'm a third-year student at the Film Academy."

"Film Academy? I'm still my younger brother. If he's so handsome, he can go to the literature department."

"Director Li, I'm from the acting department."

"Oh?" Li Wenjun became even more curious after hearing this, "Why do the acting students remember to write scripts?"

Finally got to the real question, Jin-Woo has already made a plan for this question.

"I accidentally had a car accident a while ago, and I was lying in the hospital for two days. While lying in the hospital, I was thinking that physical collisions can hurt people, so what about ideological collisions? Cultural collisions? Just right In the past few days, the news was talking about the violent law enforcement by the Jianguo police, so I conceived such a story."

Li Wenjun was noncommittal, and continued to ask: "I see how you can write such a deep story at such a young age?"

Xiao-Woo knew that this was the most difficult point to explain, and it was also the most difficult step for him to pass.

"Because I have never lived in Jianguo, most of the stories in it come from the news I collected. The teacher said that life is the best screenwriter. I adapted these real events. Of course, these stories have some It’s too coincidental, and my description of the cultural conflicts in it is also stereotyped, it seems to criticize a lot but it doesn’t solve anything, the biggest problem is that it’s too politically correct.”

"Since you know there are these problems, why don't you modify them?" Li Wenjun was a little curious about his answer.

"Firstly, it is because my ability only supports me to write this far, and secondly, it is because of you."

"because I?"

"Yes, because you are from Huaguo, and Huaguo people want to film such a sensitive issue in the country. Political correctness is your best choice. Excessively in-depth discussion will make this film have a non-movie color."

Li Wenjun was silent, he thought carefully about Xiao Yu's words.Undoubtedly, this kid is well thought out. Having worked in Hollywood, he understands the rules of Hollywood. In Jianguo, the higher the class, the more serious the discrimination. There are many things that Jianguo people can shoot by themselves, but they certainly can’t. At present The scale of the script is actually just right.

After thinking for a long time, Li Wenjun said, "What price do you want for this script?"

Xiao Yu let out a long sigh of relief in his heart, it seems that this level has been passed.

"I don't want a penny."

"Don't want a penny?" Li Wenjun laughed immediately after hearing this, "Young man has a lot of appetite, tell me, what is your condition?"

Xiao Yu slowly pulled out another script from his backpack and placed it in front of Li Wenjun.

"Director Li, this is a TV series I wrote, and I hope it will be produced by Tianhai."

When He Yuehua took Xiao Yu away from Tianhai Film Group, he looked around, the lights outside were just on, and they chatted for an afternoon without knowing it, but at this moment, Xiao Yu felt very relaxed, because he knew that this first step was the right one !
"Have you decided to cooperate with Tianhai Film Industry?" He Yuehua asked him seriously.

Xiao Yu nodded: "Tianhai's reputation in the circle is not bad, and Li Wenjun is in charge. It's better to cooperate with them than me to fight alone. Since he has accepted the movie script, it's better to deepen the cooperation."

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

Xiao Yu thought about it for a while, and he wasn't hypocritical: "What Li Wenjun said just now is quite right. I can participate as a screenwriter for "Crash", but since "Classmates" is a cooperative project, I always have a grassroots team. I'm going to create my own I am not familiar with this company, Aunt Hua has friends in this area who can help me."

He Yuehua looked at Xiao Yu, and felt very familiar yet very strange. Xiao Yu had been by her side for a long time since she was a child, but she seemed to have just met him today.

"Okay, send me your two scripts, and Auntie will sponsor you."
