After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 204 The Adventures of Li Xianji
Guo Fan gritted his teeth and kicked all his roommates out. Then he took out his notebook, put it in front of Li Mingyang, and opened the rough cut of "One Punch Man" video.

What Li Mingyang gave Guo Fan was One Punch Man, Sensei Saitama.

Li Mingyang watched the beginning and felt it was pretty good, with fresh images.

Then things got chaotic... It was filmed as a fight between little hooligans, and the school beauty appeared.

As the plot speeds up, it turns into a youth romance movie, or a melodramatic micro-movie about a rogue student and a school beauty in the same class.

The final ending...the school beauty was hit and killed by a car.

And then left behind a daughter...On a rainy night, the hero cried and howled like a ghost!

Snapped!
Li Mingyang reached out and slapped his forehead hard. This feeling seemed familiar!
This level of melodrama is as high as Wu Zhikui's!

"Old Guo! I gave you 50,000 yuan, and you made such a crap movie?!" Li Mingyang was angry.

Feeling cheated!

"Li... Director Li, let me tell you the truth." Guo Fan stammered, "This is my first time shooting a micro-film. In order to... gather all the people, it took me more than a week... Then I was thinking while shooting. In order to... in order to get the desired scene, I climbed up a tree to shoot, and even broke a camera..."

Guo Fan took out a broken camera from the drawer.

"I only look at the results, don't tell me the process." Li Mingyang threw the camera into the trash can and said expressionlessly.

"Hey... Director Li, if you think there's something wrong, I can fix it! My greatest strength is that I listen to advice."

Guo Fan finally got in touch with Li Mingyang and he didn't want to be abandoned!

He had heard that Li Mingyang was streamlining the company and pursuing a high-quality approach, which had forced many people in the company to resign.

"Did you take all these photos by yourself?"

Guo Fan nodded, then shook his head.

“At first it was just me, but later I found a photographer and a lighting designer.”

Three people photographed like this...even worse.

But Guo Fan changed his career after all...

This was the only way Li Mingyang could comfort herself now. She opened Youku and showed Guo Fan the heroic micro-movies shot by others.

Guo Fan looked at it for a while, then suddenly frowned and said, "This is a copy of Marvel!"

"I didn't say you can't copy!"

"I understand, I understand!"

"Do you really understand?"

"Copying is not easy, I can definitely do it!" Guo Fan's stuttering also got better, and he patted his chest heavily.

"Will it work?" Li Mingyang frowned.

"Yes, of course! No, I'll jump out of this window."

"No one will die from jumping from the third floor."

I'm just saying...don't take it seriously!
"I'll give you one more chance, fifty thousand yuan. By this time next month, if you can't produce a heroic micro-film of this style, you can resign."

Guo Fan is also an employee of Mingyang Entertainment, a photographer with a basic salary who does not have to go to work.

"Director Li, I have a small request..."

"explain."

"Can I...can I join the company group? After all, I...I am also an employee of the company. I am made to feel like an extra staff member."

"You'd better not join the company group. I just forced a bunch of people to leave a while ago. If you don't have any achievements and suddenly join the company group, there will be a lot of gossip."

Li Mingyang sent Wu Zhikui's QQ to Guo Fan, "This is Wu Zhikui's QQ, if you have anything to ask, please contact him."

Guo Fan rubbed his nose. He felt sorry that he couldn't join the company group to find help and build connections, but having connections with superiors was better than having none at all.

Li Mingyang, he didn't dare to look for him, for fear of being exposed.

He has a dream of making movies, but he really doesn’t know how to make movies!

After Li Mingyang left, Guo Fan went to the bathroom first to wash off his panda eyes.

He learned from Zhang Xiaofei that Li Mingyang had come to Yanbei, so he specially put on panda eyes and waited for Li Mingyang.

After washing his face, Guo Fan sat down in front of his laptop, searched for his QQ number, and typed in 'Senior Brother Wu, I'm Guo Fan, Director Li asked me to add you.' and sent the verification message.

While waiting, information about Wu Zhikui flashed through Guo Fan's mind one by one.

Wu Zhikui is Director Li's top henchman, a top student in the photography department of Beijing Film Academy, and has been with Director Li all the way. He just doesn't like his fellow students from Beijing Film Academy.

He was the one who built the love scene that was like a bouquet of flowers, and in the end, almost all of it ran away...

"In fact, isn't this a form of self-protection? Almost all the people in Mingyang Entertainment are from Beijing Film Academy. He has such a high prestige, second only to the boss, it's easy for him to form cliques... This is the most annoying thing about being a boss."

Guo Fan cheered up and started chatting with Wu Zhikui.

"Brother Wu, I'm Guo Fan, from the Management Department of Beijing Film Academy. Director Li just watched the work I shot and was very dissatisfied...Brother, can you help me find a few people to help me?"

On the other side, Wu Zhikui, who was editing Far Cry with Dapeng, saw Guo Fan's message and replied casually: "Send the work to me."

Guo Fan was embarrassed and didn't want to send it, but Wu Zhikui urged him again.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and reply, "I'm compressing the video, brother, wait a moment."

Seeing that the video was almost compressed, Guo Fan couldn't think of any good excuse and had to send the video.

Wu Zhikui clicked on the video sent by Guo Fan. He didn't pay much attention to it at first, but gradually he became more and more addicted to it.

"It's just perfect. This guy is a talent! But... Li Mingyang doesn't like him." Wu Zhikui shook his head as he watched.

Dapeng, who was reading a script, heard it, looked over curiously for a while, then walked away with a look of disgust.

What's the point of young people being so desperate in love?

Who the hell is watching you crying? It's a different era now. What people like to watch is the ball! It's the legs!

After watching the video, Wu Zhikui discussed it with Guo Fan.

Guo Fan was embarrassed at first and tried to change the subject, but Wu Zhikui encouraged him and praised him for his good photos.

As we chatted, we got along more and more, and even felt like we had met too late.

"Brother, I have a friend who made a very popular cartoon last year called The Adventures of Li Xianji. He wants to adapt it into a movie. I read the script, and the hysterical style of sacrificing everything for love really touched me..."

"The Adventures of Li Xianji? Is it very popular?"

"It's still very popular. It was an animated film in 09 and won the Best Animation Award at the 2010 Tudou Film Festival."

"Oh, let me take a look."

The Adventures of Li Xianji is an animated film that is only twenty minutes long.

It was created in 2009, an era when domestic animation was still in its infancy and piracy was rampant.

In that year, "The Adventures of Li Xianji" used magical realism to express

It interprets the tragic love between Li Xianji and Wang Qian to the audience, and at the same time uses this tragic love to highlight an alternative and sci-fi romance.

No matter whether he had drained his body, spent all his wealth, experienced life and death, or traveled through one cycle of time and space after another, Li Xianji's longing for Wang Qian remained the same.

To some extent, "The Adventures of Li Xianji" is the Chinese version of "Time Traveler".

Twenty minutes later.

After reading The Adventures of Li Xianji, Wu Zhikui was moved by the tragic love between the male and female protagonists. The book also contains elements of time and space, giving it a sci-fi feel.

It just so happens that he has been fascinated by The Three-Body Problem recently.

He likes both sadomasochism and science fiction!
"Xiao Guo, I watched the animation, but it's not cruel enough, not sci-fi enough, and still far from what I want."

“The script is more sadistic and sci-fi, it’s great!”

"Really? Send it to me..."

The next moment, an electronic script arrived.

Wu Zhikui opened it and read it. The more he read it, the more interesting it became. The script was even better than the animation. The couple who both suffered from jet lag were portrayed vividly.
Wu Zhikui was deeply touched by the feeling of being incompatible with the world and sympathizing with each other.

The more Wu Zhikui watched, the more he was attracted to it. In the script, Li Xianji's obsession with love was portrayed more deeply and more crazily, and his relief at the end gave him a sense of detachment and relief.

So cool!
This is exactly the script I wanted.

Wu Zhikui took out his cell phone and called Li Mingyang. He didn't want to film any heroes, he wanted to film what he liked.
