The best little cook

Zhang Ye's voice of surprise startles Shen Lu and Zhang Hua, but when they see his happy face, they know that today's event may be over.

"How's it going?"

"How was it written?"

They asked almost in unison.

"The play..." Zhang Ye smiles and says, "it's wonderful."

"Really? Husband, please show me. I also want to see what kind of screenplay it is, which can make you happy. " Shen Lu grabs the script and starts to read it carefully.

Next to him, Zhang Hua stares at Zhang Ye and says:

"then tell me what's wonderful."

This

Zhang Ye once again felt the feeling of being unable to laugh or cry. Maybe he was not even an amateur in the eyes of other professionals.

Fortunately, although he had never written a script, he had seen many films in college before, and often went to some film forums to participate in discussions. He still knew something about some film shooting and screenwriting.

He pondered for a moment and said, "this story is great. It can't be described as a stick. It's very epic. Zhang Hua, I don't think you wrote the script according to 100 minutes when you constructed it. "

"Well, I thought about that. Our Chinese myths and legends are extensive and profound. There are countless legends of various gods and ghosts, and the system is complex. It's impossible to write a script in 100 minutes. Let me make a rough estimate It should be a six hour movie. " Zhang Hua said.

Six hours

Although Zhang Ye had psychological preparation, he was shocked by Zhang Hua's words.

Not to mention that it is impossible to play a movie for six hours now, even the movie audience can not insist on six hours in the whole process of a movie without urine spots, which is impossible at all.

"Zhang Hua, have you ever thought that six hours is too unrealistic?" Zhang Ye asked.

"I know that it must be cut off. Although it's a pity, I can barely make it clear. But even so, it can't be less than four hours at least. Otherwise, the film will be beyond recognition and completely unknown." Zhang Hua said with a frown.

"You."

But Zhang Ye laughed and said faintly:

"do you always just want a movie to do our Chinese mythology? That's impossible."

"Well? What do you mean Zhang Hua asked in amazement.

"The whole play can be divided into three or even four. If the first one is well made, the second one will be planned and the script will be rewritten. In this way, the continuity of the script will be poor. But we're different. We've written scripts for four movies from the beginning. The consistency will be better, and the layout of the first movie can start in the second movie, or even end in the third movie or the fourth movie. Don't you think that's good? " Zhang Ye smiles to remind a way.

"Yes, I didn't think of it."

When Zhang Hua patted his thigh, his eyes were full of excitement. He wanted to write in accordance with this new idea immediately. He stood up and wanted to leave. He couldn't wait for a moment. Even a restaurant like a picnic was worthless in his eyes.

"I said you're in a hurry. It's really..."

Zhang Ye didn't know what to say. He looked at Zhang Hua speechless.

"I'm full of inspiration now. Of course, I need to write it down quickly. What else do you have?" Zhang Hua looks at Zhang Ye inexplicably, as if he is the eccentric person.

"At least think about some basic things." Zhang Ye looked at Zhang Hua and said, "for example, who is the director?"

"What does that have to do with me? I'm only responsible for writing the script. Who can I find to direct it? Isn't it up to you as a producer?" Zhang Hua looked at Zhang Ye strangely, with a puzzled face.

"Then tell me which director in China can produce such a play." Zhang Ye asked.

This

Zhang Hua was stunned and thought about it, but he found that it was really unexpected.

The key point is that the script is too troublesome. It's not only necessary to direct the epic grand momentum, but also to show all kinds of conspiracies and layouts inside. After all, the director is not only responsible for shooting, but also responsible for editing in the later stage. How to edit all kinds of scenes into a real movie is the most difficult part for the director.

"Then what? If no one can direct it, what am I going to do with it? " Zhang Hua was also hit speechless.

"It's easy." Zhang Ye is very relaxed to say, see Zhang Hua looked up at him, directly said: "this book you write, you direct."

Huh?

Zhang Hua is stupid. He didn't expect Zhang Ye to let him direct. It's incredible.

You know, just looking at the framework of this book, we can roughly estimate that the minimum investment of this book is more than one billion, because a lot of computer special effects are used, but the real funds are burning.

Such an important investment, but let him this has never been a director to operate, he is not crazy."Why, don't you believe that I will practice what I say, or don't you believe in your own ability?" Zhang Ye asked with a smile.

"No But I haven't made a movie. Aren't you afraid I'll screw it up? " Zhang Hua expressed his doubts.

"So you are worried about this. Well, I'll just take part in it and be a producer. The final editing right is up to me. When the film is made, you can edit it with me. That's all right." Zhang Ye asked with a smile.

"That's OK. Anyway, you're the boss. It's up to you. It doesn't matter to me if the film loses money. I've already said that in the front. I don't have any experience as a director." Zhang Hua shrugged and said.

"It doesn't matter. You just want to direct. Well, it's settled. If you write something by yourself and direct it by yourself, you must understand it more deeply and thoroughly than others. " With a smile, Zhang Ye said what he thought.

"You're right about that. OK, then I'll direct. Who hasn't had a first time?" Zhang Hua is also rare atmosphere said.

In fact, for him, he doesn't care whether he will lose money after the film is made. The most important thing is whether he has the ability to make it well. If he can't make the result he wants, he won't be satisfied with himself.

However, no matter what, this matter has been settled, and at this time, Shen Lu, who is next to him, has finished reading the script.

"It's really a good script. It's very clear. The plot is closely linked. There's not half a pee point. It's just too long." Shen Lu is a professional after all. She has played many good movies, but she has a good taste.

But she also had her own ideas. After a little thought, she said:

"but here's a question. Who are you going to direct?"
