Failed to show off wealth, relying on talent to become popular in the entertainment industry

Chapter 257: Shall I take it off?
Er Director Chen Banbu and the others were slightly surprised when they heard Su Bai's words. If Su Bai made an ancient puppet, a modern drama or something, they thought it would be very easy, or even a big hit.

This is the current Su Bai effect.

The products produced by Su Bai must be high-quality.

But isn’t the drama a bit exaggerated? What does Su Bai, a careless bitch, know about drama?
Director Er: "Xiaobai, you want to make a serious drama? Is it the kind of serious drama that I understand?"

Su Bai curled his lips in disgust, "Otherwise, are there any less serious dramas?"

Chen Banbu: "Why do I think it's so weird? You kid can also make dramas? Did you receive the script?"

Su Bai: "I'll write it myself. Oh, it's still early. You'll know it by the end of the year. Next year, I'll let you know what a drama king is!"

The old monkey had a look of disdain on his face, "I believe you can make some flashy drama king, but you can make a serious drama? And you want to make the drama the king of drama? If you can really do it, I will call you master!"

Su Bai's eyes lit up, "Is this true?!"

Chen Banbu: "If you can't do it, bow 90 degrees and call me master when you see me next time!"

"It's a gamble! Director Er, Director Guo, and so many viewers can testify! Director Chen, don't regret it!"

Chen Banbu: "A gentleman's words."

Su Bai vomited in his heart, you are a gentleman with a hammer!Almost like a monkey
But in front of so many people, Old Monkey has such a good reputation that he is not afraid of cheating.

Later, Su Bai gave the last A card to Huang Mengying, and the entire crew was formed: Hu Xin'er, Ren Yan, Sun Yang, Liu Ruilin, Wang Zhi, and Huang Mengying.

If the first two stages were a fight between actors, then the last stage will be a duel between directors.

Each of the four directors will write and direct a script for their 6 actors to star in. In addition, Director Dapeng will select 3 of the remaining actors to star in the "surprise script", which will be directed by Dapeng himself. .

Four original or adapted scripts are filmed by the director himself. The filming equipment and venues are decided by the director, and the program team is responsible for providing them. An MVP will be selected from each of the last five films to compete for the final best actor.

If the directors in previous competitions could watch the show very calmly and happily and give pointers, then at this stage the directors will start to get anxious.

They are all well-known directors in the industry. If a bad film is made during a competition, it will have a huge impact on their reputation.

After all, you selected the actors yourself, and you directed the script and filming. Who can you rely on if you can't make it?
Even Su Bai was a little nervous. Su wanted to save face.

After the groups were determined, all the actors gathered in groups in each director's spacious lounge.

"Do you have any ideas or suggestions?"

Su Bai looked at the actors in his group.

The six people looked at each other, then didn't say anything, and looked at Su Bai silently.
"I understand, I can't count on you anymore, right?"

"We all follow Director Su's arrangements~"

Su Bai rubbed his eyebrows, "The most important thing for us now is to finalize the script first, because the entire filming team was only given a week, so our time is still very tight."

"I will get out the script tonight. We will gather at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning. You will familiarize yourself with the script first. We will spend one day doing a small script reading, and we will start shooting the day after tomorrow. We only have 5 days, and the last day will be used Edit.”

"So, your task tonight is to go back to sleep immediately. You must ensure that you are full of energy tomorrow! Get out of here."

The six of them said goodbye to Su Bai with smiles and went back to their rooms. No one would question Su Bai's ability, so they just had to follow the arrangements.

After Su Bai drove the people away, he immediately returned to the hotel room and began to conceive of the script.

The rules of the program team are to shoot a short film no longer than 15 minutes, but this short film cannot be a fragment of a movie or TV series like before, it must be a complete story.

A simpler approach is to compress a good movie plot and then compress it again, which is relatively easy.

If we were to find a screenwriter and go over the script now, it would definitely be too late.

As a new director with a box office of 50 billion, Director Su still has a bit of arrogance. Since he has come to participate in this show, he must win first place!

Although the actors' acting skills are ultimately judged, if the script is not exciting enough, it will be a failure for Su Bai!

短片
emmmm
Su Bai frowned slightly and lit a cigarette but did not smoke. The faint smoke spiraled up, just like Su Bai's thoughts at the moment.

Many movie scenes flashed through his mind, but Su Bai rejected them one by one.

When Su Bai first thought of the short film, the first thing he thought of was a zombie movie he had seen. It told a story about a father who was infected with a zombie virus but quickly thought of all kinds of ways to safely send his child to a safe camp.

But think about it carefully, if you want to film this, many settings may have to be changed. After all, China does not produce zombies, only zombies, and it will be a bit strange to make it into a movie.

And there aren’t enough roles for the six people. We can’t let Liu Ruilin play the baby, right?
Although among the six people, there must be some who have heavier roles and others who have lighter roles, we should try to be as even as possible.

After thinking for a long time, Su Bai suddenly thought of a French short film that had won the Oscar Short Film Award!
Later, it was adapted into a movie by Ah Sanguo, which received a lot of praise.

——"Invisible Melody", also called "Tuner".

The film tells the story of the male protagonist, a talented pianist who has been studying piano for 15 years. However, he failed in the coveted Bernstein Piano Competition and his life fell to the bottom.

After a period of adjustment, the male protagonist regained his strength and became a blind piano player.

In fact, he just wears contact lenses, which will make others think that his hearing is more acute, and thus get more sympathy and consumption, and even spy on other people's lives and privacy.

For example, a beautiful female customer even took off her clothes in front of him when she invited him to perform at her home.

To be honest, Su Bai was a little envious of this job. If he had the chance, he would also like to try it. This kind of real and hidden scene that would not be exposed.While playing in a restaurant, the male protagonist was spotted by a man and was invited to attend his wedding anniversary.

But the accident happened, and he witnessed the man's wife and her lover killing the man together.

This time it was really exciting!
If it weren't for the fact that the male protagonist has a very stable mentality, I would be scared to death.

The coolest thing about this short is that it has an open ending.

At the beginning, the male protagonist is sitting there playing the piano, and behind him stands the woman who has killed her husband. The woman is holding a murder weapon, a nail gun in her hand.

There is then a sound similar to that of a nail gun being fired, and the clip begins.

The end of the short film echoes the beginning, with the male protagonist still playing the piano, and the sound of the piano continues until the end of the movie.

Ah San's adapted version actually added a lot of plots, including adding a female protagonist and a plot in which the male protagonist almost had his kidneys ripped out, but Su Bai abandoned them here.

He mainly chose the original short film version, and made some modifications and additions to the characters to satisfy all six people.

Su Bai was so inspired by the excitement of this short film that he edited it until 2 a.m. before falling asleep.

"The script is not long, have you finished reading it?"

Su Bai took a sip of the American style in his hand. It was really bitter, but it was refreshing.
"Director Su, you wrote this on the spur of the moment last night???"

Ren Yan looked at Su Bai in shock and asked.

Su Bai nodded very calmly, "Of course!"

I'm not lying at all. I did write it on the spur of the moment last night. It's just that the content was copied.

"Director Su, you are so talented!"

"Director Su, I admire you more and more! This book is awesome!"

"I think you can expand this story into a complete movie later!"

Su Bai put down the coffee cup, "That means you all think the script is feasible?"

"Of course!"

"Excellent!"

"Okay, let's discuss the roles. Our team is relatively democratic. I won't go into details about the casting. It's just a suggestion."

"Who will play the male lead and who will play the lover, Sun Yang or Ruilin?"

The two young men looked at each other for a long time, and then Liu Ruilin said first: "Director Su, let me challenge my lover."

Su Bai nodded, "I also think this is more appropriate."

Then he looked at the four women and said, "Your characters include the murderous wife, the male protagonist's friend and manager, the fangirl client who has a crush on the male protagonist, and the customer who strips down to her underwear and dances in front of the male protagonist."

Hu Xin'er slapped the table and said, "I want to kill someone!"

Swish!
Everyone looked at her with horrified expressions.

Hu Xin'er quickly waved her hand, "I mean I want to play the murderous wife."

Su Bai breathed a sigh of relief: "Next time, please tell me everything, it's really scary."

Wang Zhi: "I'll be the agent."

Ren Yan: "My little fan girl!"

Huang Mengying:
Shall I take it off?
Su Bai was personally very satisfied with this choice, as it was consistent with his preset ideas.

Then he said to Huang Mengying: "It's not like you're stripping off, it's just like wearing a swimsuit. And when I shoot you dancing in underwear later, the camera will be blurred to a certain extent."

This plot is considered a laugh and a hit point, but if the actor doesn't want it, Su Bai can change it.

Huang Mengying bit her lip and glanced at Su Bai.

“Be conservative in your underwear!”

To be honest, Huang Mengying does have the best figure among these women. Su Bai was very greedy the last time she wore a cheongsam.

Now that this role has been cast, Su Bai is very happy.

"The First Cut of the Ban"

Hey hey.
The filming process was not particularly smooth. Compared with when Su Bai directed "Celebrating More Than Years" and "The God of Medicine", there is indeed a gap between these actors and the actors he found before.

Sun Yang was trained by Su Bai alone for an hour, and his "blind" state was finally recognized by Su Bai.

The actors also secretly admire Director Su's details. For example, when Sun Yang was playing a blind man, Su Bai would teach him that blind people should rely on their ears.

It will make him subconsciously turn his face to the speaker, and unlike people with normal eyes, his ears should also face the direction of the speaker.
