The world of Chinese style creates a prosperous era for girl groups

The three stories in the "Tarot" movie are more about the exploration of human nature, rather than simply creating suspense for the sake of suspense. There are no ghosts or monsters, which meets the rigid standard that no spirits can be created after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

It is very appropriate to move the film to this time and space.

For the last one, Xia Haoyang chose the South Korean classic suspense film "Horror Live".

The general plot is: Comprehensive news anchor Yin Yinghua (male protagonist) was broadcasting when he suddenly received a call from an unidentified listener who claimed to detonate the Mapo Bridge on the Han River. The male protagonist initially thought it was just a prank, but who would have thought that the moment he put down the phone, he witnessed the explosion of the Mapo Bridge. This shocking scene made him decide to live broadcast the serial bombing for nearly 90 minutes.

However, during the entire reporting process, the situation continued, and the male protagonist had to bear unimaginable pressure, and even had to use his own life as a guarantee, putting himself in the most dangerous situation. The bomber demanded 21 billion yuan in compensation and an apology from the president. It was also full of meaning that the dangerous criminal behind the scenes chose the male protagonist to mediate, and the male protagonist finally achieved a reversal with his own wisdom, thus preventing the explosion and saving himself.

There is no need to say much about the wonderfulness of this movie. Xia Haoyang watched it over and over again back then, so the plot was written very smoothly.

Strictly speaking, Xia Haoyang only spent one day to write the five film synopses. He wrote one in the morning, two in the afternoon when he got off work, and all of them were completed by staying up late at night until the early hours of the morning. It took him only about three hours to write one on average.

He was very happy after completing the five films. He sent a text message to the boss of each company, asking them to arrange someone to pick up the scripts belonging to their company before the end of get off work the next day. He wrote four words in the text message: First come, first served!

The result? When Xia Haoyang came to work at 9 o'clock in the morning, the five companies arranged their people to come to Xia Haoyang's studio to pick up the script.

"I heard that Darabona Film and Television's headquarters is in Urumqi, right? I sent you a text message at one in the morning. Can you show up in my office at nine now?" Xia Haoyang was very curious when he saw the representative of Darabona Film and Television.

"Mr. Xia said it's first come, first served, so we must get up early. To be honest, I happen to be filming a play in Yancheng, so Mr. Dong asked me to come here as a company representative to learn about the content of the script." The person who represented Darabona Film and Television to Xia Haoyang's studio was a famous director under the company.

"So you're filming in Yancheng. No wonder you're here so early. It looks like you guys are about the same." Xia Haoyang looked at the other representatives.

Everyone smiled and nodded.

"No, I came here from Hong Kong on a private plane today." A Hong Kong director said in not very standard Mandarin.

"I'm sorry, thank you for your hard work. I'll treat you to lunch." Xia Haoyang scratched his head awkwardly.

"It doesn't matter, but it's worth it if you can read Mr. Xia's script as soon as possible." Director Xiang Jiang said sincerely.

Although he didn't understand Cantonese very well, Xia Haoyang could still roughly guess what it meant. However, all five representatives arrived before the company opened, so it was impossible to use the first-come, first-served method agreed upon before for everyone to choose the script. So Xia Haoyang chose the now popular blind box method.

"Originally it was first come, first served, but now all five representatives have arrived so early, so we can't do what we said before. How about this? I'll put the five scripts in a file bag, and everyone can pick one to understand the plot outline. If you are satisfied with the one in your hand, you can take it directly. If you are not satisfied, it's okay, return it to me, and I will write a new script for the company. Come back in five days. How about that?"

"But there is a condition. The plot outline of the movie you watched must not be leaked, and you cannot use the plots in it in your own movie. Otherwise, I, Xia Haoyang, will never cooperate with you again in the future." Xia Haoyang said with a smile.

"Of course, Mr. Xia, don't worry about that. We still have this quality." Everyone said that they would not do such plagiarism.

Xia Haoyang also trusted everyone. He printed out his five plot outlines, sealed them in a file bag, and placed them in front of everyone, "Please choose whatever you like."

The directors who were arranged by the five major film and television companies to select scripts all had a very high appreciation of scripts. So after each of them selected a plot outline, they opened the file bag, sat in Xia Haoyang's conference room, and began to read it.

The conference room was silent for a moment, and the expressions of several directors varied.

"No problem! Mr. Xia, I want this script! If there's nothing else, I'll leave first." The first person to speak was Director Zhang of Friendship Brothers Films. He became famous last year with the broadcast of the first season of "Squid Game". Although the second season has not been broadcast yet this year, it still created a sky-high price of 3 million per episode for the first broadcast on the Internet.

Director Zhang is also currently very popular thanks to the two TV series written by Xia Haoyang. He has unlimited trust in Xia Haoyang and thinks that as long as Xia Haoyang produces the work, it will definitely make money. So after quickly reading a little bit of the plot, he immediately stood up and wanted to take the script away.

The script he took away was "A Case of Miscarriage of Faith".

The first person to finish reading the script was the director of Dalabona Films. "Great, great, the design is so ingenious, it's like Rashomon again! Well done, you are worthy of being President Xia. I want this script and I want to shoot it myself. If I don't make this script a sensation across the country and it doesn't make 30 billion box office, I will never make a movie again!"

The popular Director Zhang left in a hurry, and another director made a boast in public. The other three directors were really panicked, and then continued to study the scripts in their hands.

"Okay, I don't know what kind of scripts other directors got, but I want to say that no matter what conditions are given to me, I will never be willing to trade. The suspense of Mr. Xia's script is simply amazing. Similarly, Mr. Xia, I'm not exaggerating, at least 3 billion! It can even go for 5 billion! This movie will be my comeback work!"

The director representing Qianda Film and Television also left early with full confidence. Xia Haoyang originally wanted to invite him to stay by inviting him to lunch, but the director had no intention of eating. He just wanted to take the script back to the company as soon as possible and then ask for investment, thinking about filming the script as soon as possible. What he got was the script of "The Tuner".

"OK, I like this script, but the scale of this script is a bit big. It may not be a problem in Hong Kong, but it may not be suitable for filming in mainland China."

Xia Haoyang glanced at the script in the hands of the Hong Kong director. It was "Tarot Cards", so Xia Haoyang smiled and said, "After the founding of the People's Republic of China, no spirits can be created. This film does not have these things at all. They are all psychological hints or explorations of human nature. As long as you pay attention to the scale when filming, or just shoot two versions, the mainland version can be a little less bloody and direct, just shoot it as suspense, it should not be difficult to pass the review. As for other parts, you can do it without cutting it, and it can still be a gimmick."

"I understand. Mr. Xia's suggestion is very correct. Let's do it." Director Xiang Jiang also left Fat Cat Studio with a happy face.
