billion box office tycoon
Chapter 50 Picking a Script
Xingyu Century's branch in the capital is not big, it only rents the top two floors of a commercial building in the central business district. Luo Mao's office is on the top floor, and Ye Weilin is taken up there as soon as he enters the door.
With Luo Mao's authority and his status as a dispatch from the company's headquarters, he should have an independent office. When Ye Weilin came, he was sitting on the sofa and making a phone call, and the papers on the desktop were scattered all over the place. Placed, look carefully, all of them are filled with various marks.
After Luo Mao hung up the phone, he walked to the desk, took out four file boxes from the overcrowded bookshelf, and placed them in front of Ye Weilin.
"The scripts are all here." He said, pointing to the label on the file box, "The materials of each movie are packed separately, and there are other information in it besides the script. If you can't finish reading, you can bring Go back and see."
"Okay, thank you." After Ye Weilin thanked, he set his sights on the four boxes.
The labels on these four file boxes are "Song Manting", "Wrong Body Holding Hands", "North and South", and "Man in the Mist". He has heard the names of "North and South".
After his rebirth, in order to confirm whether the historical trajectory of this world is the same as that of his previous life, he checked a lot of historical and humanistic materials. Among them, the history of the Republic of China is particularly interesting. In the history of Huahe Anti-Japanese War, however, it lost the traces of most of the famous people in that turbulent era, and replaced them with some people whose names he had never heard of, but they had familiarity with him in his previous life. Similar life trajectories of famous people in history.
Among them was a strange woman who caused a lot of controversy in later generations. Her name was Song Manting.
Her original name was Song Xiaoting, and she was the daughter of Song Jiamin, the last Han minister in the late Qing Dynasty. She was a concubine's daughter and ranked fourth among her sisters. Song Jiamin loves her the most, and even hired a foreign language teacher to teach her Western language and culture.
When Song Xiaoting was 15 years old, she was already a well-known talented woman in the upper circle of Kyoto. At that time, the Qing Dynasty had just collapsed and the Puppet Manchukuo was established, but the political territory was divided up by warlords from all over the country. , which contributed to the marriage between Song Xiaoting and the son of Wang Wenzhong, the head of the Secretariat of the Beiyang Warlord Government.
Wang Wenzhong had three sons, the youngest one was Wang Qinghan, who suffered from polio and was unable to walk. Song Xiaoting died less than a year after her marriage. She was childless and widowed, and she changed her name to Song Manting. Poetry clubs, piano rooms, theaters and other places to have fun, and soon met a man named Lu Wu, who was a member of a very famous theater troupe in Kyoto. In favor of him, he fell in love after going back and forth.
There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and soon, the news spread throughout the capital. After Wang Wenzhong sent people to shoot Lu Wu, Song Manting was sent back to her natal family under the name of "infidelity".
Song Manting was imprisoned when she returned to the Song family, but in the end Song Jiamin still couldn't bear the rumors from the world, so she was sent to Shanghai.
The more open and inclusive atmosphere in Shanghai than in Kyoto, and the luxury and luxury of the ten-mile foreign market all attracted the attention of Song Manting. After losing her lover, she devoted herself to writing poems and publishing them in newspapers, and soon became a social media in Shanghai. However, she attracted a Japanese military officer named Tatsuji Asano, and the two quickly met and fell in love until the Japanese invasion of China broke out, and the public's hatred for Japan was unprecedentedly high, and she felt panicked.
After their relationship was disclosed by the newspapers, Song Manting saw the news from Kyoto that she had separated from her father-daughter relationship. Unable to bear the blow, she fell ill. After the news of the landslide came, Asano also wanted to leave with the army, but the day before he left, he died strangely in his room. There were rumors that he was assassinated by a patriot, and there were also rumors that Song Manting killed him.
After the founding of New China, Song Manting was charged with traitor and adultery with the Japanese army and was about to be shot, but was saved by a man named Zhang Tai, who was a patriotic entrepreneur during the Anti-Japanese War and made great contributions to New China.But Zhang Tai has a family background, and the relationship between Song Manting and the other party was criticized by almost everyone. During the Cultural Revolution, Zhang Tai died of illness, and Song Manting, who lost her protection, was sent to the countryside. , She was plagued by many diseases, and lived in poverty in a brick house in the countryside, and finally died desolately at home.It is said that when it was discovered, Song Manting's posthumous works were depicted in every corner of the room. Several small books bound with straw paper were full of poems and essays, and a few landscape paintings were painted on the blank pages. There are traces of fonts on the floor and walls of the room, and there is a wooden block in the shape of a guqin in the room.
Song Manting's life was bumpy, but it was also full of legends. Her love history with many men was also written as a gimmick by later generations, but there was not a single movie about her biography that was put on the big screen.
The reason is very simple. This movie involves several sensitive contents. One is her emotional entanglement with the Japanese generals. If she can’t handle it well, she will bear the notoriety of having a bad view of the nation. The other involves politically sensitive subjects during the Cultural Revolution. It is usually difficult to pass the trial.
Fortunately, China's film and television industry has developed rapidly in recent years. Perhaps in consideration of keeping pace with the times, relevant departments have relaxed the threshold for some films with sensitive and fringe themes. I even heard that the radio and television industry has passed a proposal on opening up the release of same-sex themes. The department officially announced the news.
Ye Weilin doesn't care how Xingyu Century won the approval of this movie project, as long as it can be made.
He opened the box marked "Song Manting" with great interest, picked up the script and looked through it carefully. The content of the script was similar to the life of Song Manting he knew, but there was an extra character named Song Ting. The script arranged for him He is Song Manting's distant cousin. His parents died early, and he has taken refuge in Song Manting's house since he was a child. The two were childhood sweethearts. Later, Song Jiamin drove him away after discovering that they were in love with each other.
Ye Weilin silently read Song Ting's name a few times, and suddenly felt familiar, so he took out his mobile phone and checked, only to find that the character added in the original script was not fictional, and was mentioned in many poems and articles published by Song Manting. When it came to him, although he didn't explicitly mention the relationship between the two, the melancholy and nostalgic tone and the words "My name is Xiaoting, so I call him Dating" that was on his lips from time to time already revealed the unspeakable feeling. affection.
In Ye Weilin's view, the movie script of "Song Manting" is well-arranged. The well-known plots are weaved and divided into scenes and pictures, which are very consistent with his handling of the movie script. After reading the script, Ye Weilin even feels a little Unable to let go, the thought of "that's it" has already appeared in my heart.
It's just that no matter how much he likes it, Ye Weilin still has the rationality of a director, and he won't make a rash decision before watching the next few.
After opening the second box marked "Wrong Body and Holding Hands", he took out the top script and flipped through it.
This script is adapted from a novel. It is a hot IP sold last year. It belongs to the modern urban fantasy light comedy.The character setting is that the male protagonist is a young and handsome domineering president, and the female protagonist is a campus girl who has not yet graduated from university. The former was invited to attend a business conference, and the female protagonist applied for the staff in the exhibition hall of the conference. The two collided at the door of the bathroom , and had a quarrel, the hostess returned to the school dormitory angrily, but saw her boyfriend cheating on her roommate, and after the conflict, she accidentally went downstairs and passed out on the ground. When she woke up, she found that she was in a In an unfamiliar environment, when she saw her thick hands and 40-yard-long feet, she collapsed. At the same time, a bell rang in "her" pocket.
The ringtone of the mobile phone was of course from the male protagonist who transformed into a girl. After the two exchanged information, they immediately agreed on the meeting place. Who knows, what happened next was far more than that simple...
The script was written in a relatively simple and clear manner, with a clear story line, and Ye Weilin finished it quickly.
The theme of male and female transformation is quite novel at first glance, but in fact, it is not uncommon in today's film and television works. Less, but it is not blank, but as a pure love theme, it is refreshing, and the script is adapted from a popular IP, even if the film is not satisfactory, attention and original fans alone are enough to support it box office.
After putting the script back into the box, Ye Weilin next opened the box marked "From South to North".
He knew "Song Manting" because he had no intention of grasping information when he knew the historical process of this world.
But "traveling from south to north" is what he learned about when he was taking elective courses at Huaxia Academy of Drama.
"South to North" is also a novel, but it is different from the current fast-food online novels in that it is a serious literary work. Of course, it is actually somewhat inaccurate to say that it is serious. Its author is a well-known contemporary vanguard stream-of-consciousness writer named Huang Bo. His storylines are always absurd, and his writing is known for his sharpness. It was advanced and was not recognized by the literary world at the time, so it could not be called traditional serious literature, and it was even more inappropriate to describe it as serious.
It's a pity that the genius died young, and the collection of works he left behind is kept and organized by his wife. His wife cherishes Huang Bo's works very much and refuses to sell the copyright easily.
Among Huang Bo's series of works, "North and South" is already a relatively "normal" work. Although it tells the fringe theme of homosexuality, the plot and content are not so stream-of-consciousness. If it is shot as a movie, It is both artistic and watchable, but it is also very suitable for him.
It's just that, although this movie has been approved as a project, it is still unknown whether it will be released. Although there are rumors that the radio and television broadcasts will open to same-sex themes, no official notice has been issued, and Ye Weilin dare not take the risk.
But while thinking of giving up, he also felt embarrassing. After all, a good script is hard to come by, and it is his appetite. If he misses this time, he may lose the chance to direct this movie. Money, it doesn't matter to some directors whether the movie is released or not, and this movie should be used to hit various awards at home and abroad, not to be released to earn box office.
If there were no external factors, between "Song Manting" and "North and South", he would prefer the latter.
What Ye Weisheng said to him that day already showed that he was eager for the outstanding results brought by the box office. Presumably Ye Weisheng didn't read the relevant materials of these movies carefully. It's just that after the film project was approved, he couldn't find a suitable director for the time being. He showed it directly.
What's going on, let's talk about it after he finished reading all the scripts. Ye Weilin didn't worry about it when he thought about it, and directly opened the last file box marked "Man in the Mist".
"The Man in the Fog" is also a movie script adapted from a novel. It tells the story of a mysterious figure who always appeared in foggy weather during the War of Resistance Against Japan. Every time he appeared, he would kill a Japanese general. Or the notorious traitor, no one saw what he looked like, and he didn't know who he was, until one day, after he killed a very important figure in the Japanese army, the Japanese finally couldn't bear it and sent a professional investigation team The elite team began to compete with this mysterious "man in the fog".
With Luo Mao's authority and his status as a dispatch from the company's headquarters, he should have an independent office. When Ye Weilin came, he was sitting on the sofa and making a phone call, and the papers on the desktop were scattered all over the place. Placed, look carefully, all of them are filled with various marks.
