Chapter 208 Retreat 【Please subscribe and ask for a monthly pass】

After dinner, Hao Fu came over for a surprise inspection to check on his son, then left after dinner.

Hao Huan felt a headache looking at the bowls and chopsticks, so he simply called Wang Lexin and said, "Come here to wash the dishes, and by the way, explain some things you need to pay attention to in your new movie!"

After finishing speaking, Hao Huan hung up the phone directly. Wang Lexin was a little embarrassed and nervous after receiving the call, but Hao Huan didn't give her a chance to respond, so she had to rush over nervously.

ding dong...

Not long after, the doorbell rang.

Hao Huan frowned and walked over. Could it be that his father turned around and made a surprise inspection again?

Convinced!

For such a father, Hao Huan also had nothing to say, but when he opened the door and found Wang Lexin standing at the door, he was even more speechless!
"Didn't I give you the key? What doorbell did you ring?"

Wang Lexin said nervously: "I... I forgot to bring it."

She was actually afraid that Hao Huan's father would misunderstand him again!How else to explain the fact that she has the key to this house?

Hao Huan naturally knew that Wang Lexin did not forget to bring the key, but he was too lazy to reveal it and said: "There are still chicken soup and hairy crabs left. After you finish eating, wash the dishes and chopsticks, and then come to the study to find me!"

"Oh……"

Wang Lexin walked in with her head poking around, Hao Huan looked at this guy with a guilty conscience, and patted her on the back of the head angrily.

"Be normal! My dad is gone!"

"All right……"

Wang Lexin breathed a sigh of relief. Now that he was gone, it would be easy. Otherwise, it would always feel like someone was holding a knife to his neck.

"Like a stupid pig!"

Hao Huan complained and walked into the study, turned on the computer and tapped on the keyboard, writing about the things that need to be paid attention to in the next filming of the movie "Death Comes", as well as the suggestions and requirements of the leading actors.

Wang Lexin didn't waste food, and she didn't have enough for dinner before, so now that there was no pressure at all, she launched the CD-ROM operation, ate all the food and soup, and then went to tidy up the kitchen with satisfaction, cleaning the dishes, chopsticks, pots and plates.

After finishing, she walked into the study, waiting for Hao Huan to explain the precautions for the new movie.

At this time, Hao Huan suddenly used a line from Police Officer Huang in "Infernal Affairs" and asked: "What do you think of me?"

"what?"

Wang Lexin became nervous inexplicably and stammered: "You... you are very... very good."

So, this is a good card?
Hao Huan sneered, not bothering to scare Wang Lexin anymore, and said formally: ""Death Is Coming", I will give you 3 million yuan as the production cost of this movie! The requirements are not high, as long as the global box office exceeds 20 billion! That's it! It can be regarded as the first truly international movie besides "Saw 2", so you have to control yourself!"

In fact, judging from the name of the character, Wang Lexin already knew after a quick glance that this is a movie aimed at the international market.

Because of the name of the character in this movie, Hao Huan was too lazy to come up with his own name and just used the name from the original work.

Wang Lexin read the script for an hour after returning, and she generally understood what kind of story the movie was about.

[Alex, a high school student, boarded a plane to the romantic city with his classmates, and all the passengers had boarded the plane and fastened their seat belts.The plane was about to take off, and Alex suddenly had a strong sense of foreboding. He seemed to see the plane explode in the air shortly after it took off, turning into a ball of fire.

So the terrified Alex yelled and made everyone leave the plane, which triggered a scuffle in the cabin.

In the end, seven passengers, including Alex, were kicked out of the cabin.

After returning to the airport, Alex was surrounded by six other passengers, including his friends Billy and Todd, a young woman named Claire, Carter and his girlfriend who had wrestled with Alex. Terry, and the female teacher Luton who voluntarily stayed to take care of Alex and other students.

Just when people were angry because they couldn't fly to the romantic city, Alex's terrible premonition was tragically confirmed!
The plane exploded violently in mid-air, and no one on board survived!Shocked, the survivors wanted to know how Alex had foreseen the tragedy.

Some people are very interested in his special function, but most people are very afraid.

The federal police also came to question Alex, but Alex felt extremely guilty and confused. He wanted to forget this tragedy and return to his normal life.

But what Alex saw was death that kept coming!

The survivors began to die one by one, with very strange causes.

Alex finally understands that the Grim Reaper cannot be cheated, and that he and his friends must unite together to change their destiny. 】

The above is the main plot of "Death is Coming" that Wang Lexin generally understands.

As Hao Huan said, this is the first film in her directorial career, apart from "Saw 2", that can be viewed internationally in a true sense!
Because the themes and styles of movies no longer cater to the domestic market, just like "Saw 2". In the market, the theme style and plot of "Saw 2" are particularly popular, and it has achieved a lot of box office results.

Wang Lexin asked expectantly but a little nervously: "Boss, do I want to find a foreigner as an actor?"

"No need!"

Hao Huan said: "Although the characters in the script have foreign names, they do not necessarily have to be played by foreigners! In addition, the script is dead, but the director is alive! The name is just a code name, whether it is Zhang San, Li Si or Wang Er Mazi , the character is the same anyway, the name cannot change him!
You can name these starring roles yourself when you go back. Anyway, the translation will be more suitable at that time, and it just sounds good to your ears. "

Wang Lexin asked: "Then is this movie a 3D movie or a 2D movie?"

"It's up to you, 3D or 2D, that's not the point. The point is that you have to remember how to shoot this movie and where to pay attention! And this is what I have to tell you, so you can take good care of yourself. Remember it!"

Hao Huan looked at his simple plan for the filming, and told Wang Lexin how to prepare for the filming of "Death Comes". This movie is a big test for Wang Lexin.

Therefore, Hao Huan's requirements are not high, the production cost is 3 million yuan, and the global box office only needs 20 billion yuan.

Because the more difficult the movie, the greater the risk. "The God of Death" is different from "Saw 2". This movie requires higher director ability. Wang Lexin's "Saw 2" actually still has a lot of problems, but they are just minor problems that are innocuous, so in "Saw 1" Based on the popularity of "Saw 2", "Saw 40" will be a hit at the North American box office and earn more than [-] billion in global box office.

But it's hard to say for "The Reaper Is Coming." If "Saw 2" is a movie that opens low and goes high, then "The Reaper Comes" is a high-risk movie that opens high but doesn't know whether it can go high.

Because the production cost is high, the shooting difficulty is high, and the director's directing ability is high, so the process is easy to overturn.

This is why many domestic movies with a production cost of only tens of millions of yuan can get hundreds of millions of yuan in box office, while many of those movies with a production cost of as much as 5 billion yuan cannot even reach 10 billion in box office. Blood loss in the street.

There are many problems. One is that the production level has improved, but the director’s level is not enough, so the filming is boring, or the cost is spent on the actors’ salary and scene props, which leads to the delay in post-production. Legs, the viewing experience is disgusting.

But these problems are all problems between the producer and the director!
If he were to shoot it himself, Hao Huan would be very confident in the movie "The God of Death". Not to mention that it would have a box office of tens of billions, but he was absolutely confident that the global box office would exceed 50 billion yuan.

Think about a movie with a production cost of 3 million yuan, but it has earned 50 billion at the box office. This money is earned so that the eyes of the peers are envious and jealous!
……

After a while, Wang Lexin listened carefully to Hao Huan's work and shooting suggestions, and felt even more pressure on the next movie.

But there is pressure to be motivated!

She is eager to try it now and wants to start filming the movie right away!
Half a year has passed, and she finally has a movie that she can let go and direct by herself. She is very excited now.

She had never felt this way before.

Since the first TV series "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" achieved good ratings, since her first film "Happy Ghost" has a production cost of less than 2000 million, it has earned as much as 11 billion yuan After winning the box office, she suddenly fell in love with the career of directing!
Perhaps, Hao Huan's mood is also the same?That's why he gave up inheriting billions of dollars and insisted on making movies.

After spending half an hour explaining all the points that Wang Lexin needed to pay attention to, Hao Huan then reminded one or two details that cannot be ignored, and stopped talking.

After all, no matter how much he talks, Wang Lexin’s pig brain won’t be able to digest it.

Moreover, it is impossible for him to feed Wang Lexin into a big fat pig all at once, so raising a pig must be patient, and one needs to put in "pig feed" day after day, allowing her to absorb and digest it slowly.

Hao Huan was not in a hurry. Thinking about his four years in college, the first movie he directed was not that good either!
Compared with the first film directed by Wang Lexin, he felt ashamed.

However, Wang Lexin's progress is inseparable from him. Wang Lexin's director experience and professional level were all trained by Hao Huan step by step. Moreover, Hao Huan did not hold back at all and poured all his experience into him as a director. The knowledge was given to Wang Lexin, so Wang Lexin has made great progress, except for the talent in this area, everything else is due to him!
This is an undisputed fact!

After listening to Hao Huan's instructions, Wang Lexin asked, "Boss, I'm going to make a new movie next time, what about you?"

Hao Huan raised his head at 45 degrees, and said in a deep voice, "I'm going to be busy with the next thing!"

Wang Lexin asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

Hao Huan chuckled: "What do you think?"

Wang Lexin guessed: "Is it the post-production of "I Have a Date with a Zombie"?"

Hao Huan shook his head: "Oh, what an important matter!"

"Is it about Good Luck Pictures?"

Wang Lexin heard Hao Huan's father tell Hao Huan about the development of Good Fortune Films, and asked Hao Huan how to operate and develop Good Fortune Films in the future.

But Hao Huan still shook his head and said, "Forget it, you can't guess it with a pig's brain! I'll tell you! I'm going to retreat for a while!"

"Shut up?"

Wang Lexin was dumbfounded. Why did this sound like cultivating immortals?
Is there really a cultivator in this world?
She inexplicably thought of such a stupid question, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Hao Huan suddenly became a little weird.

Hao Huan was staring at her unnaturally: "You're looking stupid again, aren't you! The retreat I'm talking about is not about cultivating immortality! It's about enriching the director's ability! Learn more about directing in retreat!"

Wang Lexin was dumbfounded again!
I didn't say anything, how did he know that I understood that he wanted to become an immortal?Does he still know how to read minds?

　I went out for surfing in the afternoon, today's update is late, and the next update will be updated after eleven o'clock.
