Chapter 512 "Five Lucky Stars" "Family Carnival"

Hong Jinbao stood up from his seat with a "whoosh", such a sudden action really surprised Huang Baiming, after all, the latter did not understand Hong Jinbao's character a little like Ye Jingcheng.

Moreover, as competitors, the two rarely had contact with each other, so Huang Baiming didn't understand. Although Ye Jingcheng's words were very attractive, why should Hong Jinbao be so surprised?
At this time, Hong Jinbao also realized his impoliteness, and he habitually touched the scar on his face before sitting down again.

Huang Baiming continued the interrupted topic, and said, "Ye Sheng, can you call a few people from the screenwriting department over? I'm afraid I just listen to your verbal description of the plot, and I won't even be able to express the meaning myself when I go back."

Compared with the carefree Hong Jinbao, Huang Baiming is indeed more thoughtful.

If Ye Jingcheng only passed word of mouth, and told the two of the ideas in his heart.The two of them may not be able to digest it immediately, and it is easy to listen to some of the content and not to listen to some.

There is another situation that is more specific to Hong Jinbao, which is his ability to understand and express words. Whether he can understand Ye Jingcheng's meaning is the second.

The main reason is that what he heard from Ye Jingcheng, if he goes back and expresses it to others, it may become another meaning.It means that he knows what to do, but he can't explain it to others.

Because Hong Jinbao hadn't read any books since he was a child, it's normal to have insufficient vocabulary. He didn't know how to express correctly and organize words that others could understand.

On the other hand, looking at Huang Baiming, you can tell from his frail appearance that this person has a lot of ink.Regarding the idea of ​​Ye Jingcheng's next talk, he dare not say that he can understand it on the spot, but at least he can probably come up with a plot after going back and sorting it out.

However, since he was promoted to the boss, the screenwriter's pen has not been touched for a long time.So he thought about borrowing two screenwriters from Ye Jingcheng, so that he could better organize Ye Jingcheng's opinions and avoid any omissions.

: "Yes, yes." Seeing this, Hong Jinbao secretly thought that was what he meant, and at the same time he did not forget to laugh at himself: "Ye Sheng, you know that I am not educated. If you say that I am good at eating, I am good at talking about scripts." It's really playing the piano to the cow."

"Yeah." Ye Jingcheng pondered for a while, and ordered Li Zhi to go to the screenwriting department to see who was currently in the company.

The screenwriting department is a special department in the company, and Ye Jingcheng usually manages them relatively loosely.Because the inspiration needed to write a script does not mean that you can have it sitting in an office.

In particular, Huang Bingyao, who is called "deadly scissors" by the department manager, would "itch his head" every time he wrote, scratching his head desperately while conceiving.Moreover, he is still very addicted to cigarettes. He needs at least three or four packs of cigarettes a day, which makes the department office full of smoke.

This is still the amount he smoked during working hours in the company, and he must have worked overtime when he returned home at night.Especially those who prefer a quiet environment, their thoughts will be much clearer at night than during the day.

Therefore, the screenwriting department can be said to be the only department in Qingdeng Entertainment that does not need to punch in to work. Naturally, they have the ability to match this kind of treatment.

Although Huang Bingyao became a monk halfway and changed his career from a teacher to a screenwriter, he is indeed good at writing scripts.For the few films released by the company before, Ye Jingcheng gave him an idea, and then Huang Bingyao perfected it himself.

Not to mention, he was the author of "Scary People" which was recently screened in Nanguo theaters. At that time, Hong Jinbao went to the company to ask him to write the script without any preparation at all, but only gave an extremely vague framework.

From Huang Bingyao's completion of the script to its subsequent release, the box office of more than 900 million is not too low, which is enough to prove that the script written by Huang Bingyao can fully express its meaning at least during filming.

A few minutes later, Huang Bingyao and Li Lichi arrived at Ye Jingcheng's office.

"Ye Sheng, is there something wrong?" Huang Bingyao came up with a chicken nest head on his head. The bags under his eyes were as big as his upper eyelids, making it look like he hadn't slept for a few days.

"Sit down. I'll talk about a few ideas, and you can jot them down," Ye Jingcheng said.

Knowing that there was something for them to do, the two nodded and sat down.

Huang Baiming and Hong Jinbao, who were originally sitting, took the initiative to give up the middle seat to them, and then started a discussion led by Ye Jingcheng.

In fact, the idea that Ye Jingcheng said has a prototype, and it is in line with the two types of movies of Hong Jinbao and Huang Baiming.They are "Five Lucky Stars" and "Family Carnival".

It's just that he didn't explain it to everyone in detail. On the one hand, he didn't have this leisurely mood.On the other hand, he is only responsible for guiding, allowing Hong Jinbao and Huang Baiming to choose their own development direction.

If he has already pointed out the road signs and still can't move the two of them, it can only mean that his vision is not good, or that the two of them are mud that can't support the wall.

"Five Lucky Stars" is naturally prepared for Hong Jinbao. According to personal preference, Ye Jingcheng thinks that the "Five Lucky Stars" series of movies can be regarded as Hong Jinbao's best masterpieces.

As for the first film "Five Lucky Stars", Ye Jingcheng remembered that its box office was close to 2000 million in 3000.Although "The True Colors of a Hero" and "Prison in Prison" have already broken through [-] million box office, the debut of this movie will not be said to be very bright, but it will definitely attract a lot of attention.

As for "Family Carnival" assigned to Huang Baiming, the genre of this film is actually very close to his future style, which is a family comedy plus a Chinese New Year movie.Ye Jingcheng intends to guide Huang Baiming to conceive a series of movies such as "A Happy Event" by himself.

As for this "Family Carnival", it is a blockbuster movie in itself, and it also has a box office of over 3000 million.

From such a comparison, it seems that Ye Jingcheng values ​​Huang Baiming more than Hong Jinbao, but it is not the case.

Although the box office of "Family Carnival" is higher than that of "Five Lucky Stars", there is a difference in the time of their release. The former was in 86, and the latter was in 83. The currency value is a problem.

More importantly, "Family Carnival" is just a single work, while "Five Lucky Stars" is not. I believe that after the success of the first film, Hong Jinbao will immediately think of a second film or even a series.

Because this movie is purely funny, its plot can't stand up to scrutiny, and the biggest selling point is that it falls on a few actors.As long as those actors can continue to play a funny spirit, and then play a little new meaning, it is already equivalent to the second part.

As for whether Huang Baiming can make a similar sequel through "Family Carnival" or continue to the "Happy Family" series, this is a test of Huang Baiming's own views and long-term vision.
