ace screenwriter

Chapter 76 "Blossom"

Yuan Yuan is happy to hear about the box office results this time. He only received 300 million yuan in remuneration for this script. In addition, he still has 5% of the net profit share. He can get a share of about 750 million, and one movie is equivalent to writing two scripts for him.

Yuan Yuan lay on the bed, crossed his legs, checked the Maoyan box office with his mobile phone, and couldn't help being silly when he saw the gratifying data of "Mountain and Sea".Gu Yuren came back from the shower and wiped his hair with a towel: "Fool, are you looking at the box office again?"

Yuan Yuan put his legs down and lay on his side on the bed: "Haha, I'm counting money! Can you predict how much box office "Shan Hai" will have?"

Gu Yuren said: "One billion is not bad."

Yuan Yuan supported his head with his hands: "You are so conservative! I thought you had to say at least 15 billion."

"Now is the Lunar New Year holiday, and there are a lot of crowds. One billion is not bad, don't be too greedy." Gu Yuren threw the towel on top of Yuan Yuan's head.

Yuan Yuan took the towel away and threw it on the bedside table: "That's right. Junior brother, the investment in "Blossom" is also counted as my share, and I will invest all the money I earn this time."

Gu Yuren looked at him: "Sure. Let's invite a good director and a good film crew to make this movie well."

"Well, this is the business of both of us." Yuan Yuan felt relieved when he thought of this. He never thought that one day, he would have the money to invest in making movies.

Gu Yuren stretched out his hand and wrapped his arms around his neck: "I'll do it with you, and in the future, the two of us will make a big mark in the history of Chinese film and make a good story."

Yuan Yuan sketched out this blueprint in his mind, and couldn't help laughing, it's really a grand and beautiful wish.

Years ago, "Shan Hai" was due to be released, with a total box office of 14.9 billion, which was about the same as Yuan Yuan's estimate. After all, it still failed to break the domestic box office record, but it was already a very high box office.Yuan Yuan felt that if it could be screened for 60 days like a certain movie, the box office would definitely exceed 20 billion.But Yuan Yuan really made it this time, and he can get a share of 500 million yuan in revenue, that is to say, he earned almost 2000 million yuan from this movie, and he can even rank among the best in the domestic screenwriter income rankings.

Yuan Yuan was so happy that he took out 100 million cash from the bank, filled a bag full, carried it back and threw it to Gu Yuren: "This is my pocket money for you!"

The 100 million brand-new banknotes weighed about 22 catties, and Yuan Yuan had to carry them.Gu Yuren took the big bag inexplicably, and was so heavy that his waist was bent: "What is it?"

Yuan Yuan lay on the bed and laughed: "Brother, is the pocket money I gave you enough? I'll give it if it's not enough."

Gu Yuren opened the zipper and was blinded by a patch of pink. He couldn't laugh or cry. He couldn't believe that such a naive thing was done by his steady senior brother: "Senior brother, what are you doing? This is the era of electronic money , where did the bank find you so much cash?"

Yuan Yuan chuckled: "I'm also a senior VIP of the bank now, and I've saved so much money with them, what a trivial matter!"

Gu Yuren raised his forehead: "You really know how to mess around, hurry up and save it."

Yuan Yuan waved his hand gracefully: "What to save, the pocket money given to you, you can spend it as you like."

"Lord, I know you have money. It is impossible for me to pay the bills with so much cash. I will go back to my hometown in a few days to celebrate the New Year. I put this money at home and give red envelopes to thieves." Gu Yuren stretched out his hand and rubbed him. head.

Yuan Yuan blinked: "It's true. Then you can save it."

Gu Yuren slammed him under him: "You will make trouble for me, and I will punish you tonight!"

Yuan Yuan yelled "Aww", before he had time to resist, he was kissed completely by Gu Yuren's domineering kiss.

When Yuan Yuan and Gu Yuren went to Seda, Yuan's mother didn't want to stay in Beijing alone and proposed to go back to her hometown.Although Yuan Yuan intends to take his mother to travel, but he will stay in Seda for a few months, and the conditions there are really difficult.Gu Yuren came up with an idea and signed her up for a middle-aged and elderly luxury group, and asked her to travel with the group.After the tour, she returned to her hometown.

After they came back from Seda, it was the coldest season in Beijing, so they didn’t pick up the old man. Anyway, they will go out to film after the next year. The old man must not be used to being alone in Beijing, so they decided to go back to accompany the old man for the New Year. .

Gu Yuren deposited 80 yuan in cash Yuan Yuan gave him, leaving 20 yuan for flowers, of which [-] yuan was given to Yuan Ma.How could Yuan's mother want so much money, and she had never taken so much cash: "I don't want your money, I have a pension, enough for me to spend on my own. Take it and do things."

Gu Yuren said: "Mom, this is earned by my senior brother. You can take some money with you. We are both busy outside. When we need us, we may not be able to make it back in time. If you have money, ask someone to help you in case of emergency." That's good. I discussed it with my brother and I plan to hire you a nanny so that I can talk with you." The most important thing is that the old man is old and is alone at home. People can take care of it.

Yuan Ma quickly waved her hand: "I haven't hired a nanny yet, so there's no need."

Yuan Yuan also came to persuade: "Mom, I think it's okay to hire a nanny. If someone will accompany you, we can rest assured when we are outside. The expenses are paid by the younger brother, this is his filial piety."

Gu Yuren said: "Mom, please get one. You will send the nanny back when we come back, and send the nanny over when we are away, and I will pay her the salary."

Yuan Yuan added: "If you don't want to hire a nanny, then you can find a wife. We can rest assured that someone will accompany you."

Yuan Ma looked at her son speechlessly: "At this age, what kind of wife are you looking for? Then find a nanny."

Yuan Yuan was happy: "That's right. Mom, when we finish filming this movie and come back to take you on a trip to Europe, let's go out and see the world."

Yuan Ma's nose suddenly became a little sore: "Okay. It would be great if your father was still here, and he could enjoy the blessings too. It's a pity that he has such a broken body."

Yuan Yuan put his arms around his mother, not knowing what to say.

Mentioning Yuan's father, Gu Yuren felt a little uncomfortable. At that time, he was in a cold war with Yuan Yuan. When Yuan Yuan needed his company most, he was not by his side. This is a regret that he can't make up for in this life. With one arm around Yuan Yuan and Yuan's mother in the other: "Mom, senior brother, don't be sad. My dad must have left with peace of mind. You have taken care of him for so many years, and my senior brother is so promising now. He is also in the sky. Will be happy."

Yuan's mother sniffed: "That's right, there's nothing to be sad about. It's just that he's unlucky, and none of us owes him anything. Well, Mom is going to make soup dumplings for you. The noodles are ready."

Gu Yuren rolled up his sleeves: "Mom, let me help." Under the guidance of Yuan Ma and Yuan Yuan, Gu Yuren can now cook in the kitchen. Although the cooking is not very delicious, it is still edible .Occasionally, when Yuan Yuan was lazy, Gu Yuren would take the lead, which was quite fun.

This Spring Festival was very lively. The relatives of Yuan Yuan's family found out that the big star Gu Yuren was celebrating the New Year at Yuan Yuan's house. Came here to celebrate the New Year.Although Yuan Yuan only claimed to the public that Gu Yuren was his friend, Gu Yuren didn't care about it, he was indeed a friend, but one word was missing, he was a boyfriend.

On the contrary, Yuan Yuan's mother and son felt a little sorry for having wronged Gu Yuren.Gu Yuren said: "It doesn't matter, I don't feel wronged. I rarely spend such a lively Spring Festival, and I feel very happy!"

"If you like it, then come to our house more often for the holidays." Yuan Ma smiled kindly.

"Well, good." Gu Yuren agreed.

After the Chinese New Year, the long-prepared "Blossom" finally started.The director invited Hua Tai'an, a leading director in the director world. Director Hua has won numerous reputations and made countless classics. In recent years, he has seldom filmed movies. He is an honorary professor at the Film Academy.When he came to the school to give a speech, Gu Yuren took the initiative to get acquainted with each other. The old and the young chatted very well. Gu Yuren expressed his idea of ​​asking Hua Daoshan to make this movie. After Hua Taian read the script, Tong Yi also cooperated.

It's just that Hua Taian said: "I can make movies, but I don't guarantee the box office." Hua Taian is already 70 years old, and he has achieved success in this life. He made his debut early, and most of his movies are literary films, and he has almost never made commercial films.

Gu Yuren said with a smile: "We didn't even consider the box office, we just wanted to restore the story truthfully."

"That's fine. The screenwriter of the film should be over forty years old, oh no, probably not yet. Although the script is very old-fashioned, it still has a life force of forbearance. It's good, I like it." Hua Tai'an said.

Gu Yuren smiled: "Well, the movie was written by my brother, he is 34 this year."

Hua Tai'an said: "Okay, I'll see him later and chat with him about acting. The younger generation still has people who pursue art like you. It's really comforting and happy."

Although director Hua said he wanted to see Yuan Yuan, they didn't meet until the filming started. Although the old man doesn't film, he is still busy. He has been busy all his life. When he was young, he worked hard to achieve himself.When Yuan Yuan saw Director Hua, he felt like a spring breeze at first sight. This is a very wise and humorous old man, making people feel approachable.

The old man's style of handling things is slow and leisurely. Whether it is talking about plays or directing plays, he is very calm and steady. In such an era of quick effects, he can even be regarded as lukewarm.His catchphrase is: "Don't worry, take your time." As if it doesn't matter if the sky falls, the whole crew is slowed down by him.

The old man also likes to say: "If you experience it with your heart, you will have a different feeling."

Those who work with him are very easy to get into the state of the scene. Although it takes almost half the preparation time to shoot a scene compared to other directors, the efficiency is surprisingly high, and it is rare to ng countless times.Even rookie actors, under his guidance, can express the emotions of the characters appropriately.

Yuan Yuan admired Director Hua so much. No wonder some people said that it is not the actor himself but the director that determines the performance level of an actor. Some actors performed well in one play, but in another play , it completely becomes zero acting.The strength of the director can be seen.

Gu Yuren said: "My goal in this life is to be a Chinese director. If I can reach his level, my life will be considered complete!"

"Then you have to learn from him." Yuan Yuan said.

"Of course." Gu Yuren cherishes this kind of opportunity very much. After thinking about it for a few years, sometimes it's better to be told by others. The opportunities for Hua Tai'an to film are becoming less and less. It is a rare opportunity to cooperate with him once. How could he not cherish.
