Him and their stars

After all, Yu Lianju had promised Feifei a long time ago that in order to support the girl's dream, he would write a script for her. Thus, there is the current trilogy of "Skull Squadron".

Like "The Green Star Princess and the Seven Little Starfish", it can be considered someone's "original" work.

The story is actually a very standard commercial narrative. It tells the story of a group of Alliance pilots who participated in the War of Independence as volunteers and fought side by side with the people of the Earth during the War of Independence.

This is indeed true history. During the Earth's Independence War, a group of Alliance pilots did join the Blue Star Independence Army as mercenaries. They and a group of young Earth elite pilots formed the so-called "Skeleton Squadron", which has always been active on the most dangerous front lines. They have experienced military exploits and become famous. For example, Yu Lian's old friend, the previous generation Marquis Odegar, was killed on the spot when his ship was sunk by the Skeleton Squadron.

Oh, yes, I almost forgot, there is no such thing as Marquis Odegaard.

In short, in the current environment, this kind of subject matter can be regarded as following the era of good neighborliness and friendship between the two countries, and it can be said to be the greatest political correctness.

In the movie, there are glory and dreams, growth and awakening, emotions and parting, and death where life blooms as brightly as a summer flower. Of course, more importantly, there are handsome guys and beauties in the movie, as well as gorgeous fighter planes and warships, so it has all the success factors for a commercial blockbuster.

A commercial script that requires scenes, passion and scenes, and a generally on-line story logic, as long as the level of promotion, production and director is above average, it is almost impossible to fail.

Of course, as a Death Star person who can't be yin and yang, Yu Lian is still very interested in adding a lot of personal stuff into his script. For example, these Alliance volunteer pilots in the Skull Squadron are said to be internationalist fighters and freedom knights fighting for the independence of the people of Earth, but their salaries are actually several times that of Earth pilots.

...After all, they are essentially mercenaries. Isn’t it common sense that mercenaries are much more expensive than regular conscripts?

For another example, in addition to several times their salary, alliance pilots also need special small stoves and so-called happy camps for officers and soldiers. Due to the harsh battlefield environment, these services are temporarily unable to be provided, and a mutiny almost occurred.

Of course, the masters of the alliance and the community are all kind-hearted and decent people, and they can't bear to see these dark histories that make everyone degrading. After all, commercial films are just commercial films, not to mention that the money for making the film was given by the white-furred fox. Then you can't be too naive.

Therefore, as the captain of the Skeleton Squadron, the alliance's famous flying hero Valerie Lang, who is also the protagonist of this film, must be a wild and hormonal charmer who is free and unrestrained and loves freedom, and at the same time, he must have a muddy and untainted side. .

When most of his comrades behave like typical mercenaries, he must be an upright, noble and compassionate sky knight. Only in this way can the absurdity brought by the black history be diluted, and can the master and the audience be impressed. Only when you are satisfied can it be considered to be in line with the logic of commercial films.

...To be honest, although it is a commercial film, if there is no acting skills, such a character full of contradictions really cannot stand up.

Fortunately, the league does not lack such outstanding actors who combine strength and commercial attributes, and Mr. Aisham is the top one.

Otherwise, how can we say that the alliance is the real number one in the universe if it is purely about the management and promotion of the modern pop culture industry and the means of turning it into soft power?

Even the traditional military aristocrats of the empire who have a long history of being arrogant and reserved, and who deeply believe that popular culture cannot reach the realm of elegance, must rely on the Ministry of Truth and the Tribunal to maintain their ideological (meow) state (woo) of the front.

However, Yu Lian soon knew that he had underestimated Mr. Asham.

The alliance's best actor frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "Actually, if you think about it carefully, although "Skull Squadron" is a typical commercial blockbuster, its internal logic actually has many similarities with "Green". The squadron leader and Imperial officers are all conscientious people, but one is a hero of the times, and the other is a villain who has deviated from the times. But I always feel that they all have the struggle of being trapped by the times in their hearts, so they have a sense of tragedy in their fate. General Yu, As expected of you! Although you are young, your wisdom and talent are already making the tree of life bloom with divine brilliance."

Yu Lian thought to himself, you should say, "As expected of me." I just casually wrote a commercial film, adding elements from "Brothers" and "Strong X" and so on, and added some personal work in a weird way. Why did Lao Shizi's "The Struggle of the Times" and "The Struggle of the Times" appear? Tragedy of fate”?

Now that the conversation has reached this point, Yu Lian couldn't help but said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Then let's make another appointment. I've really been a little distracted recently, so I started working on the outline of a movie trilogy."

"Oh?" The other party suddenly became really interested.

"It tells the story of a white-collar worker who graduated from a prestigious school. He has worked in a large company for half his life. When he was still looking forward to being promoted to a management position and moving up a level, the position he had already agreed on was airdropped back. He has an N-generation background. The high-achieving student who returned from overseas complained. He swallowed hard and thought about continuing to work hard, but after all, he was old and physically weak, and was eventually sent to society as a talent. At this time, there were still twenty years left on the mortgage in the big city. The child's The cost of education is getting higher year by year, and my medical insurance is also getting higher year by year, but it is almost impossible to find a job with the same income."

Mr. Asham and the two girls didn't have much reaction. After all, their lives were still far from ordinary social animals. On the other hand, the agent lady and the executive of Huanyu Group showed a look of sadness and even palpitations.

"He made a difficult decision to sell his house and car to pay off the debt, and returned to his hometown with his savings, preparing to become rich by operating farms, orchards and small food processing plants."

Aisham kept nodding his head enthusiastically, obviously full of interest in such a "local" subject matter.

Of course, his manager lady would really be unable to sit still, but she wanted to get up several times, and even wanted to interrupt Yu Lian, but was given a sideways glance by the purple-haired girl opposite, and she never dared to do so again. What to do.

As for Feifei, she is now just as interested in Yu Lian's story as Mr. Asham.

Yu Lian continued: "After going through many hardships, he finally succeeded in starting his own business. His family avoided the involution of big cities in his hometown, no longer worried, and became much healthier physically and mentally. People in his hometown also benefited. Happy reunion ending."

"Well, typical commercial inspirational themes, as a genre film, the market size is not very large, but the advantage is that the local themes seem to be quite novel, and the cost is controllable and the income is stable, many investors will like it. Of course, if you can If the original company that laid off his company is dealt with in the script, the audience's emotions can be further released. If you appreciate it, I will also be willing to invest in it when the time comes." Mr. Aisham said.

He showed some interest, but not as much interest as Skull Squadron and Green Star Princess.

As an actor with extremely high commercial appeal, of course he also has his own production company.

"But at the end of the first part and the second part, Nephi... ah, unknown multinational corporations, for the sake of their overall economic planning of the universe that they don't understand, they casually increased the price of fertilizers, and also... Congress was manipulated to increase the hygiene audits of food processing companies. As a result, the protagonist's career was hit hard and he was about to go bankrupt."

Feifei chuckled. Fleur was neither sad nor happy. The agent lady and Mr. Huanyu's executive over there felt a little uneasy for some reason. On the contrary, Mr. Aisham's interest became more obvious on his face.

"This kind of reversal is very much like an art film!" he laughed.

"He is still struggling to maintain his career, leading the elders in his hometown to help themselves through production, making fertilizers by himself, and even risking his life to go to some star areas where no one cares, selling convenience foods to pirates, and signing long-term agreements with warlords. The contract finally revived food factories and agricultural companies that were almost in dire straits."

"This is based on your deeds at Red Maple Factory. To be honest, I think your feats on Lumina planet even surpassed those of the God of War Festival." Aisham was in awe again. This time, his interest was really piqued.

Well, this one is indeed a true fan.

Yu Lian couldn't help but look at Feifei, who smiled and said, "Mr. Asham has also watched "The Revival of Red Maple Factory"."

"Didn't I downplay my presence in that documentary? Should I focus on the workers' self-awareness and struggle?"

"That's what I did, but if people want to know more details, I can't object."

"So Sister Fina has edited another film called "Captain in Lumina". It was secretly released on some niche websites and is not available on the market." The purple-haired girl added: "By the way, I also I've seen it. Hehehe, big brother is indeed more handsome than he was at the God of War Festival."

Yu Lian thought to himself that this was the first time I heard about this.

"You're the most talkative little girl. You've already learned how to fry sweet and oily fruits, but you still can't cover your little mouth? Do you have to tear it apart?"

"I hate it, Sister Fina. At your age, isn't it the right time to talk too much?"

The two beauties, one big and one small, laughed happily. No matter how you looked at it, it was a beautiful scene of sisterly love. However, Yu Lian always felt that there seemed to be many glints of swords and swords that were not real but must exist.

He felt that this was probably his illusion. Moreover, if a man pays too much attention to the friendship and interaction between the girls, he will appear too greasy. He then said to Mr. Asham: "Have you seen it too? What about "In Lumina"?"

"Actually, whether it's a documentary or a feature film, the director's private cut can best reflect her personal talents and ideas." Mr. Asham said seriously.

...Well, movie stars of this level tend to cherish their feathers. Since we are talking about cooperation, it is reasonable to find out about the director’s previous works.

Yu Lianyuan was happy, and finally a vicious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Let's talk about the third part. After the food factory and agricultural trading company finally gained some scale, the all-out galactic war between the big powers finally broke out. In order to determine its strategic and geographical advantage, a certain big country occupied the protagonist's family line, and also expropriated the protagonist's factory and the countryside of the villagers. At that time, the protagonist was already a grandfather, but as the saying goes, live to learn. Old man, he finally realized the reality of this world. He burned down the factory he had built with all his life's efforts, and led his young disciples to rise up in resistance."

Seeing the shocked expression of Mr. Esham opposite, Yu Lian smiled: "By the way, the protagonist is a human who grew up in the Fermo Star Territory. He grew up with the Onkoba Lion-faced Man and the Torran Ox Man. Big human.”

Although the Fermo Star Territory is the largest source of war in the entire galaxy, it is also one of the most important transportation hubs after all. Of course there are still many human settlements.

Mr. Aisham was stunned for nearly half a minute, and then he enthusiastically stretched out his hands to hold Yu Lian again, his eyes were bright, as if they were hiding two shining suns.

"General Yu, please leave the protagonist to me!"

Well, this project is really just a random rant on my part. Isn't this a typical example of a director and a script that doesn't have enough money? But you are a galaxy-level movie star, do you need to get on the pole and reach over?

Does this actor Mr. have any serious illness? Yu Lian couldn't help but glance at Feifei again.

The latter showed a bright smile: "Mr. Asham, you see, this time I finally did not waste your time, and my goal of inviting you to come has been exceeded."

"To be precise, I should be the one to thank you. At least my harvest has far exceeded my expectations." Mr. Asham stood up very solemnly and bowed slightly to the director, his eyes full of joy. Determined, as firm as a warrior with a will to die.

"Then, I would like to ask for your guidance for future cooperation."

The two shook hands tightly, their bodies filled with a sense of faith and mission. That scene certainly didn't look like the director and the lead actor were working on a project. It seemed like an unbreakable alliance.

The agent lady next to me and the executive from Huanyu looked at each other in confusion, as if they were completely confused about the situation. However, they instinctively felt a hint of danger, a hint of fear flashed in their eyes, and they hesitated to speak.

Yu Lian was also a little confused about the situation, but he just inexplicably felt that all kinds of evil things were starting to stir up.

Fleur clapped her hands with a smile: "This is great. Sister Fina, if you ask now, Mr. Yosham might agree to your other request."

"Another request?"

Feifei explained calmly: "Inviting Mr. Asham to be my leading role is indeed one of the purposes. The other one is, of course, public relations!"

"Public relations?"

"Mr. Asham is a member of the executive board of the Alliance Film and Television Arts Society, which means he is a judge of the Yagemi Awards." Fleur said with a smile.

...Although I know that any award that is open to the public must require public relations, but is it really okay to say it so directly? Yu Lian looked at Mr. Esham here again.

In other words, if I hadn't happened to show up, the main purpose of your dinner would have been for the public relations of the Yage Mi Awards, right?

The latter seemed a little embarrassed, but maybe it was because he had to tell everything in front of his idol. He added: "This is a university town. There are robot guards patrolling the island. Ordinary paparazzi can't get in. If you want to discuss If you do something, it will be quite safe here."

Yu Lian suddenly realized. This is probably why the new store was opened here.

For dignitaries, a safe zone where they can discuss matters is definitely a necessity. What's more, my uncle's craftsmanship is indeed impeccable. Whether it's really for dinner or a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking, the needs can be met, and the business will naturally increase.

"Brother, this is the most basic operation method in the high-end catering industry. I just did a little smile step by step. Please don't thank me." The little girl said with a genuine smile.

However, my uncle, a contemporary chef with "1500 years of heritage", shouldn't be too happy, right?

Yu Lian still remembers that his grandfather said a long time ago that what a chef pays attention to when cooking is a person who is born among the masses and grows up among the masses. However, when you are really put on the stage and treated as a "master" or "immortal" by big shots and the media, you are no different from a charlatan who reaps the IQ tax.

At this time, Fleur said again: "But don't worry, the lobby on the first and second floors are open 24 hours a day. White-collar workers working in the main city, engineers of the orbital elevator on the island next door, and college students are all very... I like this place. The land and buildings here are all ours, so there is a lot of cost left, and the price is very affordable. Of course, a real big shot will not lose the ability to taste real delicious food because of the affordable price. Yes. Mr. Aisham, do you think so?"

"I'm going to recommend this store to my friends. I mean it sincerely." Mr. Movie Emperor seemed to have thought of something, and said: "Wait a minute, invite me to come over and advertise this Ronghui Building. It belongs to you." The third purpose, right?”

"No, this is actually my little selfishness, a little selfishness full of fireworks. It is far different from Sister Fina and Mr. Asham's big vision of focusing on the destiny of civilization."

Yu Lian clicked his tongue in surprise. She used to think that this little girl was just a sharp-tongued snake loli who was as big as a kid. Now that she has grown from a lolita into a young girl, she seems to have the feeling of a little Yani again. .

However, when Mr. Isham, who was very pregnant, and the others were leaving, and Miss Frey was walking too cheerfully to catch up with the afternoon classes at Ocean University, Feifei said: "This girl is actually harder to deal with than a white-furred fox. "
