My singer girlfriend is super fierce

Chapter 1058 A movie with all the villains

For the first movie he participated in and directed, Ye Zhiqiu chose "No Man's Land", the work of Ning Hao, who was known as the "genius director" in his previous life.

The first thing to consider is the issue of cost. The cast and scenes of this movie are not complicated, and it falls into the category of mid- to low-cost movies. It is quite suitable for a "newcomer" director like him.

After all, it is impossible for him to create a super blockbuster with a production cost of hundreds of millions right off the bat. That would be unrealistic.

Although there is no shortage of scripts in his mind, knowing how to do it and being able to do it are often two different things, and they often require a process.

Ye Zhiqiu knew how much he weighed. With his current experience and level, he couldn't control big scenes such as wars where hundreds or even thousands of people often participated, so he had to do it step by step.

Secondly, the movie "No Man's Land" in the previous life received high ratings and reputation from online film critics such as Xinhua, and it was also a "small and big" movie at the box office.

At the same time, this kind of road movie with plot and crime themes is still relatively unpopular in China, and the competition from similar films will be much smaller. Even though several filming locations are concentrated in relatively remote areas in the northwest of the country, the conditions are still quite difficult. .

In the conference room, after Ye Zhiqiu took out the script, silence fell again.

In fact, after learning that this was a realistic film, Huahai Entertainment had sufficient internal confidence in the script, which was just a process.

After all, many successful works such as "Crazy Stone" and "I'm Not the God of Medicine" have proven Ye Zhiqiu's talent in creating this type of works.

On the side, assistant Xiaoru, who was free, was bored and secretly looked at the faces of everyone who was reading the script.

As a result, she found that everyone's expressions changed from doubts, to confusion, to solemnity and shock, which were extremely exciting.

Could it be that the script was poorly written? The little assistant was curious.

After a long time, Lu Ping, the head of the film and television department, took a long breath and asked a question.

"I want to know...who is the good guy in this story?"

Ye Zhiqiu shook his head, "No."

"Hiss..." Everyone took a breath and looked at each other.

It’s really just a story about “everyone is evil”! Everyone has read the script, and some of the scenes described in it are a little numb.

Lu Ping thought about it several times and hesitated: "Isn't this... not a bit in line with the current mainstream values?"

"Would it be better to slightly modify the character of the protagonist, or add one or two scenes where decent characters appear?"

Ye Zhiqiu refused without thinking, "No."

"The name 'No Man's Land' wants to show that this place is a gathering place of evil, a black hole of desire and greed. In it, everyone is infinitely magnifying their greed, anger and ignorance, and the protagonist is no exception. "

"Besides, who says the protagonist of a movie has to be a good guy?"

Everyone fell into silence, understanding that what Ye Zhiqiu said made sense.

Lu Ping smiled bitterly and said, "To be honest, I feel quite happy watching it."

"But to be honest, the scale of this story is quite large. If it is actually filmed, I don't know if there will be any problems in the review."

"That's no problem, shoot!" Li Wenrui immediately agreed, "Over there, invite them to dinner in advance to find out whether the rules are in compliance with the regulations!"

After the project was approved, the crew preparations for "No Man's Land" started quickly and are in full swing.

Regarding the first movie he is about to direct, Ye Zhiqiu is still relatively cautious in selecting actors.

First of all, he played the role of "Pan Xiao", a well-known but greedy black-hearted lawyer, and the boss of the poaching gang "Zhan Tiejun" was played by Huang Zhengmin.

Another important role is the "killer". For this role, Ye Zhiqiu has already had a target candidate in mind.

Shandong Province, Qingdao City,

"Hello? Zhiqiu?" Huang Bo was quite surprised when he received Ye Zhiqiu's call.

"The last drama has just been completed, and it is not available now, but I am considering the next crew..."

"Okay! If you're interested, of course you're interested! Just send it to me..."

Huang Bo put down his cell phone with an excited expression. On the side, his manager Cai Liang asked curiously: "Is it Ye Zhiqiu? What did he say when he called you specifically?"

"He is planning to make a new movie, a film he will direct and act in, and he invited me to play a role!" Huang Bo explained without taking his eyes off the phone screen.

The agent was stunned, and a flash of joy flashed across his face, and he quickly asked: "What role, and who is the male?"

Huang Bo pondered: "According to what he said, he should be the third male lead in the film."

"Third male..." The agent frowned, a little hesitant.

"You have three film appointments now. The last of them is also the second actor. One of them is the first actor and it is a blockbuster film... It is Ye Zhiqiu's first time as a director. It is probably a small one. This opportunity is not very suitable."

"How about we decline him politely?"

In the movie "Crazy Stone", Huang Bo made an impressive impression with his excellent performance. Later, his net worth also increased, and he continued to have film appointments.

Regarding the agent's proposal, Huang Bo shook his head and did not agree.

"Read the script first. If the script is good, having a male will not be a problem." Huang Bo said. From the corner of his eye, he noticed that Ye Zhiqiu seemed to have sent the document over WeChat, and his eyes lit up and he quickly opened it.

After watching this, another half hour passed, and I was completely absorbed in it.

On the side, the agent looked at Huang Bo's changing expression and murmured in his heart.

Is this good or bad?

However, the next second, Huang Bo suddenly slapped his thigh, his face extremely excited.

"That's it, I acted in it!"

The agent was shocked, quickly took the phone and looked at the document.

——"No Man's Land".
