rewrite life

The next day, after Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi finished recording the program "Qilu Talks Gossip", it was already past one in the afternoon.As the host, Qi Lu originally wanted to invite Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi to have lunch, but Tang Shi was thinking about Xu Hao and Zhang Ye who met last night, and Qi Lu himself was busy with work, so Tang Shi finally declined. Qi Lu's invitation, but he said that it would be nice to have supper together after work in the evening.

Qi Lu saw that Tang Shi's words were sincere and did not seem to be perfunctory, so he nodded in agreement.

Here, Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi rushed back to the hotel, called Xu Hao immediately, and asked the two to meet at the restaurant on the third floor of the hotel.Then Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi ordered two meals at the restaurant, but they didn't eat two bites. They saw Xu Hao and Zhang Ye rushing over in a hurry.

It turned out that after the two met Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi last night, they guessed that Tang Shi might be interested in the notebook in their hands, and they were so excited that they couldn't sleep for a while.Before five o'clock the next morning, I ran to the hotel gate and waited for the rabbit.Then they waited until Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi went out to record a program on the TV station, and returned to the hotel after recording the program.After hearing Tang Shi's call, the two rushed up.

Hearing what Xu Hao said, Tang Shi quickly asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

As soon as the words fell, Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi heard a belly groan.

Xu Hao and Zhang Ye looked at each other, and smiled embarrassedly at Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi.

Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi couldn't help but ask the waiter to order lunch for them.Everyone sat down to eat and chat.Because of the memory of his previous life, Tang Shi was very impressed with Xu Hao's script.This movie is called "The Lottery", although its main creator Xu Hao and screenwriter Zhang Ye have been titled "It is derived from the fact that the Sugar Juice Group bought a lottery ticket and won a prize of 500 million when they participated in "Dancing Miracle" Inspiration", but the specific content of the script has nothing to do with Tang Shi.

This is also the reason why Xu Hao and Zhang Ye found no one willing to invest in them after they fiddled with the book.For one thing, the story described in this script is too rustic, such as migrant workers, factory owners, thieves, village women... They are all a group of small people who are usually ignored by no one. Only the plot of a killer is quite eye-catching, but the last part of the story The ending is too bland, and it doesn't conform to the mainstream of the current movies "Happy Reunion" and "Gao Da Shang".Therefore, when facing Xu Hao and Zhang Ye, many investors demanded that if they invest, they must change the script, or even change the script to a true story of the sugar juice combination.Anyway, the current name of the Sugar Juice Group thinks so, and they will make a "documentary film" in their name, and many of their stupid fans will watch it.

But Xu Hao and Xu Hao couldn't accept the demands of these investors.Because if the changes are made according to the requirements of the investors, the final film will not be what they want.So they went around looking for no less than [-] investors, but in the end they failed to negotiate.Now the combination of sugar juice is their only hope.If the Sugar Juice Group is not optimistic about their film, then the two of them can only give up this book first, try to shoot commercials to make more money, and then earn money to make this film by themselves.

Xu Hao and Zhang Ye, who seemed to be fighting to the death, sat very nervously opposite Tang Shi, with their hands clasped tightly on their knees.Seeing Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi get together and carefully read the script, every star was in their throats.

On the other hand, Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi read the script very seriously.Especially Lu Hengzhi, he did not have Tang Shi's "foresight", and did not know the great achievements of this film after it was actually released.But when he looked at the film with the eyes of a film producer and thought about the effect of the film after its release, Lu Hengzhi found that he was very optimistic about the film.

At the same time, those bubble dramas that are often tall or full of idol plots are different.This film is about a group of migrant workers who go to the city to work. During the Chinese New Year, the factory owner can’t pay wages because of poor management, so he can only buy a lottery ticket for each of these migrant workers, expressly stating whether they can get compensation. The family's money depends on their luck.

Migrant workers who have worked hard for a year just to bring home some money for the Chinese New Year certainly do not agree with the factory boss's approach.So the big guys got together and went to the factory owner to discuss an explanation.Everyone blocked the factory boss who was about to sneak away at the gate of the train station, and there was a quarrel over this.As a result, during the dispute, a piece of newspaper was blown by the wind and stuck to his face, with the lottery number of this lottery written on it. The factory owner found that number very familiar. After careful recall, he found that he had bought this number, and have been distributed to these workers.

That is to say, one of these miserable migrant workers actually won 500 million yuan.The factory owner was pleasantly surprised and regretful at this time. He told everyone that if he had this 500 million, the wages of the big guys would be fully paid out, and the factory would not close down.

So everyone took out their pockets to find their own lottery tickets and checked them with the winning numbers. As a result, everyone's lottery tickets didn't match up.In the end, there is only one person left, Baodaner, one of the three leading actors in the film, but Baodaner said with a sad face that his lottery ticket could not be found, and it might have been stolen by a thief during the dispute.

So the big guys looked for thieves around the whole train station again.In the end, he ran into a killer from Hong Kong Island.It turns out that the head of the Li family, a well-known tycoon on Hong Kong Island, was seriously ill and was about to die. Before he died, he left a will to donate half of all his inheritance to his first love, Cui Niu.If Cui Niu is no longer here, the money will be given to her direct descendants.But after so many years, Patriarch Li couldn't remember what Cui Niu looked like.He only remembered the address of his first love, Cui Niu, when he was in his hometown.In order not to lose the property, the son of the owner of the Li family sent killers to assassinate Cui Niu and her descendants...

In the train station, the killer who just got off the plane bought a ticket to Cui Niu's hometown.Because of his professional habits, the killer is not willing to have contact with people around him. When waiting for the train, he always hides in various inconspicuous corners.

But because the killer's movements are "sneaky" and different from ordinary people, the factory boss and these migrant workers mistake him for a thief.But the real thief was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he also pretended to be a migrant worker who came to work in the city, and got together with the factory owner and his group.The thief and the thief followed everyone to track down the killer from Hong Kong Island...

The plot design of the whole script is very ingenious, and it cleverly connects the three groups of people who have nothing to do with each other.In the end, the unexpected but reasonable ending made everyone laugh out loud, and aroused audiences and film critics to think and discuss the truth, goodness and beauty of human nature.

So after discussing with Lu Hengzhi, Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi decided to spend 1000 million soft sister coins to invest in this movie.And Lu Hengzhi will still serve as the producer of this film.And the reaction of the two of them made Xu Hao and Zhang Ye's heart sink slightly.

However, after Tang Shi read the book carefully, he found that there are many details in it that are very different from the plot after the film was officially released.Tang Shi understands that this is a very normal thing in creation.Because the script is just a family opinion, but if you consider the process of submitting the film for review after filming, the market response after the release, the audience's reaction, etc., changes are inevitable.

However, Tang Shi was not willing to bother with the movie "Lottery" in his previous life, because investors were not optimistic about it, and the main creators had all kinds of troubles.So, picking up the deeper memories, I discussed with Xu Hao and Zhang Ye about the changes to the script.In particular, when one of them was submitted for review, the plot that did not pass the review was brought up, and Zhang Ye was asked to change the plot according to the impression of the movie.

What Tang Shi did was just to save trouble.But I didn't expect Xu Hao and Zhang Ye to be astonished.Although he knew Tang Shi's creative talent, he could write songs and tinker with scripts, and he even won the Best Screenplay Award at the Olek Awards.However, seeing Tang Shi's aura and unique insights in script creation with their own eyes, the two were still impressed by it.

Zhang Ye even begged Tang Shi to be the second screenwriter of this script, in order to use Tang Shi's fame to attract more audiences for this film.Secondly, I also hope that Tang Shi can help them revise the script better.As the so-called excellence, although Xu Hao and Zhang Ye are very confident in their own script, they think that after the film is made, it will definitely be a big hit.But they also hope that their first film can be like "A Wonderful Journey", which has a good reputation at the box office.

Tang Shi accepted the latter request from Xu Hao, because since he invested in this movie, he must hope that this movie can be better, and even surpass the achievements of his previous life.

However, Tang Shi declined Zhang Ye's previous request.

A person who really likes literary creation must respect all literary works.Also maintain the most basic respect for your own integrity.This has nothing to do with whether the work itself is excellent, but a person engaged in creation, respect for the independence and integrity of his own creation.

Tang Shi's changes to the script of "The Lottery" mostly borrowed from the plots that did not match the script after the movie "The Lottery" was released.There are also some unique insights and sharp comments from some film critics on the plot of the film after the film was released.To be honest, Tang Shi didn't have much of it.And this movie is not like "Wonderful Journey", because Evan doesn't know much about Eastern culture and Huaguo culture, so Tang Shi has to spend a lot of effort to change the script, and even rack his brains to design various ways that can make the West It is a romantic plot with oriental elements that people can understand and feel moved.

Since he didn't give more of himself in the creation of this script, Tang Shi also felt that he was not qualified to put his name on the script "Lottery".Although Tang Shi insisted, no one understood.

Seeing Zhang Ye's disappointed and slightly inferior expression after hearing his negative answer, Tang Shi said bluntly, "Not famous in the script, it's not that I look down on this book and think it's not good. .On the contrary, I think this book is cleverly conceived, and the plot arrangement is also very unique. It’s just that the ideas I’m putting forward now are based on the plot of the script itself. Not to mention, when you actually start filming, you will also consider these things. So... this is actually a reminder of experience, and has nothing to do with my own creation. What's more, we are now the investors of this film, Lu Hengzhi As the producer of the film, we should give suggestions on the script and the shooting of the film. Believe me, Zhang Ye, your book is well written, and after the film is released, you will definitely become famous overnight with this film."

The implication is that they don't want to covet Zhang Ye's chance to become famous.Acting so openly and aboveboard, Zhang Ye and Xu Hao became even more passionate.Can't help but ask: "Mr. Tang, is your studio still recruiting people?"

Tang Shi was taken aback when he heard the words, but he immediately realized, his eyes lit up, he looked at Zhang Ye and Xu Hao and asked, "Do you want to join my studio?"

Zhang Ye and Xu Hao nodded quickly. If they could follow such a talented, status-worthy, trustworthy character, and a strong background, what else would they consider.

And here, after hearing Zhang Ye and Xu Hao's words, Tang Shi also became excited immediately.Back then when he set up a studio in Bad Funwood, recruited Evan to the studio, and even Leon White took the initiative to vote, Tang Shi already felt that he was lucky.But he didn't expect such luck to follow after returning to China.

Could this be the halo of the domineering pig's feet leaking sideways, the tiger's body shaking, and the supporting role worshiping in the novel of rebirth time travel?

Tang Shi thought about things in his heart, but he accepted Xu Hao and Zhang Ye's request without hesitation on his face.In order to avoid having long nights and dreams, Tang Shi also asked Lu Hengzhi to call and invite the lawyer over. Although the domestic sugar juice studio has not yet been found, this does not prevent them from signing these two people first.

Tang Shi was also inspired by this, and planned to sign the young actor Li Bao who played the role of a migrant worker in the film "Lottery", Jin Zheng who played the role of the factory owner, and another Yan Hai who played the role of a thief.At that time, his studio has just been established, and he will have a gold medal director who has shot all the films worth over [-] million yuan, a gold medal screenwriter who has won awards for his scripts, and two film kings with strong box office appeal and superb acting skills and a Powerful actor.With this lineup, it is impossible for Tang Shi not to make money.

However, these thoughts are just Tang Shi's longing and fantasies about the future.The top priority, their main job is to contact these actors.

Fortunately, Tang Shi and Lu Hengzhi are now well-known, and these three actors are currently mediocre existence - a TV series with good ratings has only been filmed, but they have not been able to appear on the big screen. , one is still working as a singer, and the other is a character who spends all day squatting outside the Capital Film City waiting for a role.

So after learning of Xu Hao's invitation and the film's investors and producers, the three actors signed the film contract and the management contract of Sugar Juice Studio without hesitation.

At the same time, less than a month after returning to China, the news that the Sugar Juice Group bought a "small workshop" local movie book that almost no one in the industry was optimistic about was also reported by the media frantically. Everyone knows.
