Entertainment tycoon who started out as a director
Chapter 76 The Covenant
Chapter 76 The Covenant
"Oh oh oh!"
The crew members shouted one by one.
After Gu Ming announced the completion, he felt that the last bit of strength in his body had been drained out, so he found a chair and sat down.
These two months were really the most exhausting two months of shooting.
Not only the heart is tired, but the body is also tired.
Of course, Gu Ming is not the most tired.
Look at Gu Changwei and Cao Yu.
Cao Yu was better, after all, he was young and strong, but he walked a little weakly.
Gu Changwei simply limped over, holding his waist.
I found a chair and sat down on it.
While rubbing his waist and arms, he sighed.
"Gu Ming, Gu Ming, helping you make this movie will cost you at least five years of my life."
"I don't care! Have you finished writing the movie script about having a blind date with your husband?"
"I will definitely have to rest for a few days when I go back. I will finish writing it in these few days."
"There's no rush then. You have to rest for a few days. I'll have to rest for at least half a month when I go back. I also have to go for massage, acupuncture and so on." As he said that, Gu Changwei also hammered his waist.
"Is your waist bad?" Gu Ming teased.
"Bullshit, you're so strong!" Gu Changwei was about to stand up, but he lost his strength and sat back down.
I simply stopped being stubborn and just lay there.
Swing!
As long as I have thick skin, no one can hurt me with just words.
"In the future, we should look for young people for this kind of movies. Xiao Cao is very good. I am over 40 years old and I really can't do such strenuous work. I just managed to do it with one breath."
"It's okay, you are getting stronger with age and are better than young people."
"Pull it down quickly." Gu Changwei turned to the other side and stopped looking at Gu Ming.
"Ha ha!"
Gu Ming smiled and said no more.
Mainly action movies are the easiest to open overseas markets in this era.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have suffered like this.
If "Taken" is successful, there will definitely be fewer action movies like this in the future.
There are still so many films waiting for me to shoot.
How can you give up an entire forest for a big tree?
After the crew finished cleaning up the scene, Gu Ming took them to a hotel.
Then everyone had a meal together.
"Call me when you're dubbing. The filming was really fun this time. If we have a chance, we can work together again!"
After finishing the meal, Li Lianjie came over and gave Gu Ming a half-hug.
Everyone is leaving tomorrow.
But he had to leave London in the early morning.
His wife had just given birth to a baby, and he came over to shoot when she was just one month old. He had to go back and spend time with his wife and baby.
"There will be a chance."
"I'm just afraid that I won't be able to get paid in the future."
"Haha, the cost of filming your friendship is the price of breaking a bone if it's a literary film."
"Then it's settled!" Gu Ming smiled and sent Li Lianjie to the door of the hotel.
……
The next day.
The crew left London and returned to the capital together.
Say goodbye to everyone.
Gu Ming was too lazy to start editing immediately.
First, I put the shooting materials at China Film Studio, and then I returned home and started to recuperate.
rest for a day.
Feeling somewhat recovered.
Only then did he start writing the script "Tuya's Marriage" for Gu Changwei.
Cut off Hu Wangquan'an's hit work in advance.
Maybe it could change the outcome of him being chopped by his wife with a knife.
Just do good deeds.
Thinking about it this way, the extremely shameless Gu Ming felt no psychological pressure when writing.
In fact, the script of this story is not that difficult, and the plot is not very twisty.
It tells the story of Tuya, a stubborn woman on the grassland. Her husband is disabled and it is difficult for her to maintain the family by herself.
So she chose to divorce her husband.
But she is stubborn and will not just abandon her husband and children like others, or remarry with her children.
Instead, she decided to make a request that her new husband support her disabled ex-husband together.
A middle school classmate who made money proposed to Tuya and took Tuya and their children to live in the city, while her disabled ex-husband was placed in an orphanage.
The ex-husband missed his wife and children, committed suicide by cutting his wrists, and was revived.
Unable to bear it, Tuya took her children back to the ranch.
During a grazing trip, Tuya rescued Senger, who was drunk and freezing in the wilderness. If it weren't for Tuya, he would have died.
Senger is willing to marry Tuya and live on the ranch with Tuya's ex-husband and children.
Tuya accepted.
Unexpectedly, the ex-husband and Senger got into a fight at the wedding banquet.
When I went outside, my son was fighting with another child because the child called him two fathers.
Tuya, who has always been strong and stubborn, wore traditional wedding clothes on the grassland, hid in a yurt, covered her mouth and cried bitterly.
At this point, it’s the end of the story.
What does it look like in the end.
Whether Tuya lives with her ex-husband and Senger, or Senger divorced her, Tuya can only support her disabled husband and son with her own persistence.
Or maybe she abandoned her disabled husband.
No one can know.Gu Ming couldn't make a choice for him. Once he made a choice, it would lose its charm.
Because he had a clear story line in his mind, even the details, it took Gu Ming three days to write the script of "Tuya's Marriage".
Then he took the script to Gu Changwei's house.
This time it was still Jiang Wenli who opened the door.
He just rolled up his sleeves and looked like he was about to hit someone.
"Ah, haha." Realizing that Gu Ming was looking at her arms, Jiang Wenli smiled and put down her sleeves, "They are both regular guards. After coming back, they lie on the bed and let me massage him every day."
"After having massage for so many days in a row, I even hired a professional masseur to teach me. I almost became a professional massager."
"Maybe we can make a movie about masseuses in the future." As she said that, Jiang Wenli raised her hands and flexibly twirled them while asking, "By the way, what did you film? It's been five days, and it's still the same I can’t even walk normally!”
"Don't worry, I have a panacea here."
Gu Ming showed the script in his hand.
Just then, a little girl with a familiar face walked out of the second bedroom.
Jiang Wenli immediately called the little girl over, protected her by her side, and introduced her.
"My niece, Ma Sicun, Sicun, is called Uncle Gu."
"Uncle Gu."
"It's time to call me old. From now on, we can talk about our own affairs. You call me brother, and I call your aunt sister Wenli. How about that?"
"I understand, Gu, Uncle Gu." Ma Sicun nodded naively.
"Haha, my niece just looks silly." Jiang Wenli touched her niece's hair, "If there is a role for a little girl in the future, you can consider me as my niece!"
"That goes without saying, it should be!"
Gu Ming raised his chin at the young Ma Sicun and walked to the bedroom on his own.
Then he handed the script to Gu Changwei, who was still lying on his stomach.
"Lao Gu, the script of the story I told you."
"This is the first time I have handed over a script I wrote to someone else to film."
"You made a lot of money."
"It shouldn't be difficult for this film to win an award at the Berlin Film Festival."
If it weren't for this film not being suitable for Venice.
In addition, if he wins another Golden Bear, the possibility of completing the three majors can be directly judged to be almost zero. Gu Ming is reluctant to give the script of such a film that won the Golden Bear Award in his previous life to others.
"Then I'm quite honored!"
Gu Changwei took the script and turned it over immediately.
While watching, he murmured.
"If I can really win an award, whether it's Best Actress, Best Director or Grand Jury Prize, I'll leave it to you Daystar to make movies from now on. I'll just make movies, and it's up to you how to allocate the shares."
"Do you want to sign a film contract with your Venus?"
"That's unnecessary."
Gu Ming waved his hand.
Gu Changwei is also an old friend.
In addition, he was a former colleague of his father, as well as his background in Xiying Film Studio and his status as a fellow from Chang'an.
Really signing a film contract would seem too raw.
As long as there is no major conflict of interest, this favor is enough.
Besides, I believe that Gu Changwei will not fail to see the rising momentum of Daystar.
As long as he doesn't want to cut off his connections, he won't break up with each other.
"correct."
Gu Ming patted Gu Changwei's waist.
"Lao Gu, are you so cautious in your thoughts? Don't you even dare to think about the Golden Bear?"
"Silk……"
"lighter."
"Who wouldn't want to win the top prize?"
"It's just that the golden bear is not as good as you said."
Gu Changwei shook his head, "You just won the Golden Bear again, how could you give it to a Chinese film twice in a row! Unless a Chinese filmmaker is the chairman of the jury."
"It was only possible last year, but it's almost impossible this year."
"I even suspect that it will be several times more difficult to win a prize."
"Alright, let's work together as a husband and wife team. Let's have a good time shooting when the time comes. I'm still waiting for you to become our special director for Venus in the future." Gu Ming is still confident about this.
Gu Changwei didn't speak, but nodded slightly.
After watching for a while, he excitedly called his wife Jiang Wenli over.
"Wenli, Wenli!"
"Let's take a look at this script. I think you can go to the grassland to experience life first. If you perform well, it's not impossible to win a Best Actress Award."
"So excited, it seems like a good book!"
"Thank you!" Jiang Wenli walked in and nodded at Gu Ming.
"Look, is this out of the question? You and your wife should discuss the script together first. I'm going back first!"
Gu Ming waved goodbye and left Gu Changwei's home.
Then we gathered people and started editing "Hurricane Rescue".
The editors are their own, Gu Ming said this, they can do it in practice.
What matters is the soundtrack.
Over the years, Gu Ming has also learned some music.
But in fact there is still a big gap between him and these top composers.
In addition, it is impossible to reproduce all the original music.
Gu Ming found one of the top scorers in the country, Zhao Jiping, who had not yet joined the crew of "Emperor of Han Dynasty".
For most of the music, I tell myself what style I want, and he will provide the soundtrack, and whatever he thinks is appropriate is fine.
But well.
There were two songs from "The Bourne Supremacy" that he had watched in his previous life. Gu Ming still remembered them deeply. They were also suitable for "Hurricane Rescue", so Gu Ming decided to use them in advance.
