I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 5 [Truth]

"Good work? Huh..."

Seeing Lu Zhengyi's righteous words, Deputy Director Zhang twitched the corner of his mouth, a little disdainful, "If there is a good work, then I will definitely be willing to put more thought into it."

"But Director Lu, I really don't know. Are you too confident and don't know the heights of the sky and the earth; or are you too stupid... Your vision is too low, and you don't know what the definition of a good work is."

"To be honest, from the moment you took out this script like a baby, I kind of wanted to quit."

"It's just because of your father's face that I endured it and helped you finish the filming."

"Not to mention the old-fashioned plot of the ghost's revenge, but some clichéd love elements must be added. The only bright spot in the whole film is the incomprehension of the evil ghost Chu Renmei, which can give people some psychological oppression."

"For this notebook, where is your confidence? I'm really curious."

He didn't mean any personal emotion, just telling the truth.

After being scolded like this, he didn't pretend to be a grandson anymore.

Anyway, even if Lu Zhengyi cried in front of his father, it was reasonable for him, an elder who was almost two rounds older than him, to endure for so long!
"So this is how Assistant Director Zhang feels about this book?"

While stirring the noodles brought up by the waiter with chopsticks, Lu Zhengyi looked at Zhang Yu in front of him, without any angry expression on his face.

He was not surprised that Assistant Director Zhang belittled the book.

The reason why the movie "The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" became a classic in the previous life has become a childhood nightmare for many people.

The main reason is because of age.

When many people watch this film, they use picture tube TVs, plus old-fashioned discs such as VCDs and DVDs.

In that era when information transmission was underdeveloped, the horror atmosphere of films projected with this kind of equipment was directly doubled.

If it is placed in the later period of the information explosion, this film may not be so popular, but may be evaluated as a vulgar film.

It just so happens that the world is in a period of information explosion.

It has lost its main advantage.

"As far as the book in your hand is concerned, not to mention asking me to be an assistant director, but even giving me the position of director, and accepting me to be in charge of filming with full authority, I am not willing to accept this order."

Anyway, it's all been said, and Assistant Director Zhang didn't hide his thoughts anymore.

Putting his hands together on the seat, he assumed an educational posture and asked:

"Director Lu thinks, what conditions can we meet for success with this book in our hands?"

As he said that, he didn't wait for Lu Zhengyi to give an answer, so he snapped his fingers and asked himself to answer, "The script is like a dog-blood romance movie."

"Convincingly, in order to save money, Director Lu led the crew to run around to shoot real scenes. This aspect has done a good job."

"You don't know anything about the shooting technique. I don't boast about it. My evaluation of myself can only be regarded as quite satisfactory, and I haven't lost face."

"Sound effects, I haven't heard this aspect yet, so I won't mention it for now."

"Actor, Chang Zhengwei is an old actor who has played supporting roles for many years. It's really hard for him to play supporting roles for the first time; the lead actress Yu Li, although this little girl is a newcomer actress, she is from a professional class, she is also very beautiful, but she is not bad..."

He counted down one by one.

To sum it up, a group of mediocre people were gathered together by Lu Zhengyi, a director who knows nothing, with a bad script and made a bad movie.

As he spoke, Deputy Director Zhang himself laughed.

Absurd, never been so absurd in my life.

It is said that the dragon begets the dragon, and the phoenix begets the phoenix. This is Director Lu's son, so what?

It was really in vain that I was in a hurry to get here some time ago.

"Deputy Director Zhang's analysis is very comprehensive."

Lu Zhengyi sucked on the noodles and nodded in agreement, "There is really no advantage."

"As a horror film, as far as the current shooting content is concerned, it is very ordinary."

"Let's not talk about big fire and small fire. It's a mystery whether anyone can watch this film when it's released."

"No, at first some people should have watched it because of my father's name, but after the first wave of people watched the plot of catching a horse, they gave a lot of bad reviews, and then no one would be willing to be fooled again."

As a person who has worked in the entertainment industry for decades, although Zhang Yu is lustful, he is still very strong in work ability.

At least in terms of appreciation ability, not bad.

In the circle, directors with some qualifications don't need to wait for the finished film to come out. They may just read the script, or halfway through the filming, to roughly see the value of the film.

For the box office, you can also have an estimate, just like an exam score.

But for Lu Zhengyi's attitude, Assistant Director Zhang's smile stopped, his expression was a little subtle, and he asked hesitantly: "...Director Lu, don't you think that your work is actually very good, but it's just that I can't appreciate it, or that others can't appreciate it?"

Lu Zhengyi shook his head and replied calmly:
"How could I have such an idea."

"You have been with the crew for decades, and you have more film reading and shooting experience than me. Why should I question your vision?"

"This notebook is indeed very ordinary."

This made Deputy Director Zhang's face even more strange.

This Lu Zhengyi doesn't look like those people who don't know the heights of the heavens and the earth, and are self-confident about their talents.

But why?

He was a little confused, the kid in front of him was thinking.

Regardless of director Lu Yiyong's objection, this kid is not angry that the work he wanted to shoot was so belittled?
Don't say you're not angry, why did you agree to it?

Then this also understands the situation.

But suddenly, Assistant Director Zhang realized something, took a breath, "Hiss—"

"Director Lu, our movie is supposed to be for washing..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Zhengyi, who had been belittled for a long time and had a calm face, changed his face and interrupted him, "Wash what!"

"Be careful what you say!"

"Are you trying to kill me!"

Deputy Director Zhang, who always liked to rely on the old to sell the old, lowered his head and lowered his voice, "Yes, yes, yes."

He said yes, but he became more and more determined in his guess.

Could it be that he was really on a thief ship?
I know that my script is bad, so I dare to take it out as my first work?

"The movie isn't over yet!"

Lu Zhengyi put down his chopsticks and reminded Deputy Director Zhang, "What you said just now, the plot, shooting techniques, sound effects, and the conditions of persuasion are all correct."

"This horror film has to make the audience feel uncomfortable in terms of visual images, and it has to make the audience feel even more uncomfortable in terms of auditory and sound effects."

"A horror film can only be considered a success if it makes the audience restless for a quarter of an hour."

Assistant Director Zhang hesitated, "...then you are."

"But there is one point that Assistant Director Zhang has ignored from the beginning to the end."

Lu Zhengyi picked up the bowl, took a sip of the noodle soup, and wiped his mouth, "That's the truth."

Assistant Director Zhang frowned, "Really?"

"That's right, it's true."

Lu Zhengyi touched his stomach that was not even half full, and ordered a bowl of noodles, "The most uncomfortable thing about this horror movie is the truth."
