Entertainment: Stepmother’s daughter is actually a future queen

Chapter 281 College Student Film Festival
After signing Zhang Xiaofei, Lin Yu led her to get to know a few people in the dormitory, including Xu Zheng and others, and then took Zhang Xiaofei to the Happy Twist team to learn about some comedy dramas.

"Our movie is a comedy, which you have never made before. A drama is different from a movie, and a comedy is different from traditional themes."

"Before the filming of the movie starts, you will study here first, and then Mr. Zhang will take care of you."

"Mr. Zhang, please trouble me. This is our first signed artist. She will be filming a comedy movie soon. At that time, we will have to recruit a few people from your team. As for her, she will be arranged with you these days. Please Take her with you."

"Okay, sure, we have drama rehearsals here every day."

"Hello, classmate Zhang." Zhang Chen stretched out a hand to Zhang Xiaofei, and his tone was much more polite. He couldn't help it. The big boss is rich now. He didn't think it was anything before. Now "Encounter in the Cemetery" When it was released, it reached fourth place on May [-]st, and now the total box office is approaching one billion. He sees it.

And I heard that this was a movie solely owned by the young man in front of me, and he took all the profits. From this movie alone, the profits were worth hundreds of millions!
With a boss like this, are you worried about having no money if you are happy? ?

"Hello, Mr. Zhang." Zhang Xiaofei was suddenly flattered.

"Xiao Fei, don't think this is just a drama team, but they are the only comedy drama team in the country, and drama is also very challenging. The performance of comedy movies is different from serious themes. It has to be somewhere between realism and realism. And between grandiosity.”

"I hope you can grasp this level well."

Zhang Xiaofei immediately nodded seriously. Next to him, Zhang Chen couldn't help but glance at Lin Yu. He was a content man and a screenwriter. Of course he could hear Lin Yu's words immediately. He had caught the pain point of comedy in just one sentence. .

A fusion of exaggeration and realism.

Going a step further, there is also the fusion of baggage and plot.

Hello Li Huanying is a typical film in which the integration of baggage and plot is poor. The baggage dominates the scene and makes the plot hollow.

The plot is obscure and complicated, making it difficult to arrange, and the jokes are mediocre.

No wonder he has such a high talent for directing at such a young age...

Zhang Chen shouted silently in his heart.

"Come on, come on, classmate Zhang, please come inside."

Ignoring what Zhang Xiaofei was doing with Mary and Shen Tongchu, Lin Yu walked out of Happy Mahua's office building, thought about it, and took out his cell phone.

Three years ago, the contact information of the person Lin Yu added in front of the crew of The Swordsman was the same. Except for special occasions such as holidays, Lin Yu winning awards, and Liu Yifei becoming popular, the two had almost no additional communication. .

Thinking of this, Lin Yu sent a message, "(Smiley face), are you busy?"

When there was no Hanpi waiting for the family to return, Lin Yu immediately got down to business, "I have a script here and I plan to make a comedy film. I am short of a female lead. I don't know if you are free or not."

After sending the message, seeing no movement on the other side, Lin Yu shrugged and ignored it for now.

It was dinner time before Liu Yifei sent a message.

"(Happy), ask me to be the female lead. Ouch, great director, you finally thought of me. I thought you wouldn't be interested in a small role like me."

Looking at the phone, Lin Yu smiled awkwardly. On TV, Liu Yifei had an unworldly personality, but in reality she was a silly type of person who was straightforward and generous.

She complained very much about the setting of "unworldly fireworks".

"How dare you? I didn't have money before, so I couldn't afford it."

"Hey, boss, what are you doing? Which girl are you talking to?" In the university cafeteria, the second brother was eating barbecue rice and saw Lin Yu banging his cell phone, and he quickly poked his head over.

"Don't talk nonsense, work." Lin Yu turned his phone aside calmly.

The phone vibrated again, and Lin Yu picked it up and took a look.

"I'm filming in another place. I don't have any schedule for the past six months. If you're not in a hurry, you can send the script to my agent."

"If the agency allows it, after I finish filming this TV series, I will film yours."

Half a year.

Lin Yu sighed and put away his phone. How could he wait like this for half a year? It was too long. Liu Yifei was not scheduled, which would be troublesome.

Bai Yueguang's looks must be better than Zhang Xiaofei's.

Go find the original owner Wang Zhilai?
To be honest, Charlotte's Annoyance has raised Ms. Wang's evaluation. Like Zhuge Dali's character design, the overall character is still a bit not big enough. Bai Yueguang's school beauty feels a bit unsupported.

It stands to reason that Liu Yifei had the most unsolvable period during her student years, but her charm after that is still a bit difficult to solve, but that doesn't matter.

Who says you have to follow the original and take the sexy route?Then doesn’t Liu Yifei have the look of an urban beauty?
How come the lively and cold aura of an urban beauty doesn’t work, right?
This is a very good candidate, but unfortunately, there is a schedule conflict.

Lin Yu began to feel the pain of Liu Weiqiang's casting. How could there be so many characters that fit the character exactly? In most cases, they didn't fit the character.

"Let's audition!"

Liu Yifei was ruined, and the casting situation was limited to the heroine. Lin Yu had only the last option left, auditions.

Or choose a suitable role from a well-known female artist.

Halfway through the audition process, the female lead has no idea... Mainly because of some troubles. Although Lin Yu has a reputation as a billionaire box office director, Lin Yu is a bit too young after all. As a college student, naturally he can't Be trusted.

Although there were many actresses who submitted information, there were not many actresses with pure campus style. Occasionally, a few were called, and their acting skills were all poor.

With Lin Yu's current level of pickiness, the acting skills of others would simply not be pleasing to the eye.

In late September, "Encounter in the Graveyard" finally took its time and the box office exceeded [-] billion, and the single-day box office was almost cleared. Lin Yu was satisfied and removed "Encounter in the Graveyard" from the shelves.

On the Internet, it was announced that "Cemetery Encounter" had set several records.

[-]. Supernatural theme, highest box office in the country!
Second, the only one in the country with a supernatural theme that has exceeded [-] billion in box office.

[-]. A movie directed by a college student, with the highest box office record.

……

All kinds of gossip and small news are all going viral on the Internet. As Graveyard Encounter was removed from the shelves, Big Brother's mainstream video media station began to contact Lin Yu, wanting to sign the online version of Graveyard Encounter.

The contract given is a high share ratio of about 73, with a minimum guarantee of 300 million.

Or 1000 million, buyout.

After negotiating with these platforms, Lin Yu finally sold it to Rotten Tomatoes for a buyout price of 1000 million. The income from Graveyard Encounter has almost completely ended. "Boss, you can't waste your chance encounter with an IP in this cemetery." Guo Hao also started to speak smoothly, chattering there.

"To make Graveyard Encounter 2, the box office will start at [-] million yuan. This money is simply picked up for nothing."

"Hey, we don't have enough manpower." Lin Yu sighed, "You have to go with me to film Charlotte's Trouble, and Zhou Ye has to go with Xu Zheng to film Ghost Record 4."

Encountering this IP in the cemetery makes money. However, Lin Yu will be too busy for a while. This is how small workshops are.

"That's right." Guo Hao scratched his head, thought for a while and said, "How about going to Huace to rent a director?"

"We write the script, provide the actors, and just find a director to shoot it. 200 million is definitely enough to rent a good director."

"Let's talk about it later." Lin Yu pondered for a moment, "Even if we film, we still have to go back to supervise the production, why not stay and train other people, save this IP for that, and call Xu Zheng or Zhou Ye to film later."

At the end of the month, the National College Student Film Festival begins.

The College Student Film Festival is held in the Magic City. It is only slightly famous in the circle, but its influence is not very great. It is mainly concentrated in a few universities. In the past, there were only a few college student films produced by several universities. This Niche film festivals also mostly play an encouraging role.

But this year, after various policies were implemented, in just one year, the output of college student films doubled compared to last year, and this is just the beginning.

There is no doubt that as time goes by, this film festival will become more and more grand.

In order to show their concern and importance for young people, the leaders of radio and television in Shanghai will attend the film, deliver speeches, and present awards.

"Brother, are we going too far in dimensionality reduction?" On the way to the Magic City, Guo Hao couldn't help complaining, "This college student film festival is at best a short film on DVD or some graduation works. I feel like my "Wednesday and Thursday" 》Every time you take it, you will win an award.”

"You repay your encounter in the cemetery..."

Let's put it this way, in the entire college film festival, most of them can't even get together a movie that is often an hour and a half long.

"Are some of the prizes for children too bullying?"

Guo Hao's horizons are a bit high now. What kind of college student film festival?Just playing house!

"But I'm also a college student?" Lin Yu said simply.

"Those are just DVD works."

"Am I not a dv work?"

I guess, if you say that, it seems to make some sense.

What do you say about this broken film festival?It can only be said that there is no one who can beat them. There are too many people who are better than Lin Yu. There are several awards in this college film festival, "Best Feature Film, Best Documentary, and Best Experimental Film"

There are three excellence awards below each best.

Then there are Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Actress. Taken together, there are more than ten awards.

This year's College Student Film Festival encountered Lin Yu, a swindler. It can only be said to be bloody unlucky.

The award ceremony was held in a very serious hall, yes... it was a round hall, filled with plastic chairs, a podium, and a projector. This was the home of the College Student Film Festival.

There are seven or eight staff members, all teachers from major universities, a dozen volunteers, and a dozen media outlets.

There were even people from the TV station, with long guns and short cannons, and live TV equipment set up in the corner.

There were more than 200 seats in the audience, all of whom were invited directing students from various universities, ranging from freshmen to seniors. For a while, the hall was chaotic, and many people had their school's certificates hanging around their necks. He was looking for students from the same school to sit with him.

Some people I knew were whispering in the audience.

"Wang Bureau." At the corner of the hall, the person in charge of the venue was making an introduction. "All the media in the city are here today. You will go on stage to give a 10-minute speech and then give awards to these students."

"Well, they are all the flowers of the motherland." The man called Wang Ju looked at the list in his hand with a slightly strange expression, "This... Encounter in the Cemetery, how can you apply for the College Student Film Festival?"

This name, when placed in these young and niche dv short films, which are generally only 10 minutes long, can be called a strange species.

The weirdest thing is not this, but that last Saturday, he, his wife and daughter went to the cinema to watch this movie. How should I put it, it is a very mature commercial movie.

On another occasion, he would not be surprised to see this film nominated for a certain film festival.

But look at what this is.

Apart from you, there isn’t even a real movie in the College Student Film Festival!
"Leader." The man next to him nodded and hurriedly explained. He thought Wang Ju knew nothing about the movie. "The director of this movie is Lin Yu, a junior student at the Qinzhou Academy of Chinese Opera and Film. .”

"College student??" Wang Ju's voice suddenly raised an octave.

"Yes, yes." The man rubbed his hands and said with a sneer, "So, when he first submitted this movie, we hesitated for a long time, but he was completely qualified, and it was more in line with the theme of the film festival. Forehead……"

"We think that as the entertainment industry in our city continues to develop, there will probably be more and more serious films at college film festivals in the future."

"We want to set a precedent."

"Well." Wang Ju thought for a while and nodded, "Your idea is good, but you can't look down on others just because they are in movies. School is the last pure land outside society. We must take advantage of it. We need to be fair and just before the wind of capital blows in."

"Only look at the content, not the box office, and remember... you don't recognize your relatives, only your work; if the wind comes from all directions, you can steer the show yourself."

"Yes, yes." The person in charge on the side quickly took out a notebook from his pocket, took out a pen, and began to write down in public.

The conference is about to start, and some media are already "clicking" and trying hard to capture some shots.

Some people who were idle outside naturally began to whisper.

"Have you looked at the list? "Encounter in the Graveyard" is also on it. Is this scientific? Is this reasonable?" In a corner, a senior from the theater directing department whispered with sadness and anger, "Isn't this a shame? "

Everyone else's expressions were tense, as if they were graduate students who were still studying the topic with their tutor and were not yet very good at "catching rabbits to death".

During the graduate student defense, a famous participant of the Solvay Conference in Physics came.

Who can stand this.

"He was originally a college student, and no one said he couldn't come." A senior from the directing department said quietly. As soon as he finished speaking, the man raised his chin and pointed in that direction, "Look, he's here. .”
