Opponents become teammates [entertainment]

Lu Zhiyuan figured it out.

When he followed Ren Yuanyang back to the office, Cui Han and Xin Tian had already finished the interview, and the two stood dejectedly, obviously being hit hard.

But Lu Yiqian didn't care about it, put away the contract, and smiled politely at Wang Future: "Then trouble Director Wang, and I will take more care of these boys in the future."

"No trouble, no trouble." Wang Weiwei's attitude towards Ren Yuanyang is simply a warm breeze, as amiable as a Santa Claus: "Yuanyang, do you want to have dinner with me?"

"No need." Ren Yuanyang didn't accept his favor. He looked at Lu Zhiyuan, then at Cui Han and Xin Tian who looked gloomy. He was very unhappy with this strange old man who beat his little friend, so he refused without hesitation.

"Ah?" Wang Weiwei was surprised for a moment, then reacted, and laughed loudly: "Hahaha! Good boy! Well, if you don't go, don't go, see you on the set!" He said, accepting a contract Into the bag, a man laughed and left.

Lu Yiqian is still surprised, Lu Zhiyuan is no stranger to it, Wang Future is such a person, actors who admire him are as good as heaven, and actors who don't appreciate him, even if you kneel at his feet and hold gold bars to him, maybe he will Will not charge.

Some people praised him for his clear likes and dislikes and his personality, while others criticized him for choosing actors based on subjective emotions, but no matter what others said, Wang Weiwei still went his own way, and the actors who offended investors were kicked out of the mainstream film industry. Dead nature does not change.

To a certain extent, it is precisely because of Wang Future's willingness to die that they have the opportunity they have today. The movie "Dark Word Spiritualist", which has never appeared before, has the possibility of coming out. .

Will the movie brought about by the Butterfly Effect disappear, or will it soar into the sky?

Lu Zhiyuan didn't know that he didn't have such a keen market sense.

But he knew that he was ready to go all out.

■

A week later, Lu Zhiyuan got the script of "Dark Word Spiritualist".

He roughly read it, and the main storyline is about an ordinary college boy, Ren Xiao, who suddenly discovered that he has superpowers one day—he quarreled with his roommate, cursed him to die, and the other party really died.

Ren Xiao felt very panicked, but he didn't know who to tell his secret to. If he told this kind of thing, he would definitely be regarded as crazy.So, he had to keep the secret alone, more and more painful, and when he was about to collapse, he finally told another roommate about it.

But his roommate didn't understand him, and instead spread the word everywhere. Ren Xiao felt the anger of being betrayed, and for the first time, he wanted to kill his roommate with his words.On the night when he planned to commit the crime, suddenly a strange brother broke in, claiming to be his kind, and expressed his belief in what he said.

Ren Xiao received the comfort, his mentality returned to normal, and he restrained his murderous intentions.In the following days, he gradually became familiar with this senior brother, and gradually became relieved of his superpower.But the good times didn't last long, and Ren Xiao accidentally discovered that the senior brother approached him for a purpose, to absorb the spirit of speech from him to strengthen himself.Ren Xiao was so angry that he went mad, not only killed the senior brother with his words, but also killed the roommate who laughed at him before.

At this point, the story has come to an end, but since it is Wang Weiwei's drama, there must be some magic in the end - Ren Xiao suddenly saw the friend he killed in the first place in the middle of the night, realized his conscience, and committed suicide .

And the friend stood up and absorbed his energy.

Overall, the story is a bit of a cult, and it’s no wonder that other investors were reluctant to invest.After reading the script, Lu Zhiyuan even wondered why Lu Yiqian agreed with them to shoot.

Sure enough, his question was still circling in his mind, and he received a call from Ren Yuanyang. He said in a panic, "Zhiyuan, come here quickly! Brother Qian and that Wang Future are arguing!"

Lu Zhiyuan rushed over.When they arrived at the scene, they found that the two were arguing fiercely. Among them, Lu Yiqian was the most. He took the script, blushed and said to Wang Future, "Isn't it the campus ability that was promised at the beginning?! Why did the script come out in such a horrible way? This is not a campus power, this is a murder scene!"

Wang Weilai snorted coldly, and retorted confidently: "Campus superpowers? Do you think a group of brats standing there, adding a few glare special effects to punch and embroider their legs, is called campus supernatural powers? My script has words and campuses. Where is it considered a campus power?"

"Even if that's the case." Lu Yiqian pointed to the contract and showed him the contract, "Then what's the matter with the assignment of roles? I see that apart from Yuan Yang who runs through the entire drama, the others all died within a few episodes! Agreed All four of them have important roles?"

"They all have names and surnames, okay? Especially the role of senior brother Lu Zhiyuan, who can be regarded as the protagonist's life mentor." In this regard, Wang Future is a little bit wrong, and he just argues a few words, and simply stalks his neck, dead pig Don't be afraid of the boiling water: "I said Mr. Lu Yiqian, the contract has already been signed, do you still want to go back on your word?"

"You...you!" Lu Yiqian was so angry that he picked up the contract on the table and almost threw it at Wang Future. Fortunately, Cui Han went over to comfort him in time, and then he came back a little bit and stood up. Standing up, the tone was firm: "Director Wang, among other things, the three of them must play more roles, and this is not negotiable."

"What do you know? That's art. It's a complete storyline..." Seeing that Lu Yiqian's face was getting more and more gloomy, and the cooperation was in jeopardy, Lu Zhiyuan quickly interrupted him, and suggested: "Director Wang! I read it The story, I think it is very interesting to write, why not separate the story line for each character and analyze their respective psychology, what do you think?"

Wang Weiwei was stunned for a moment, this time he didn't refute anymore, Lu Zhiyuan saw that he was a little moved, and continued to analyze: "For example, when the role of my brother, when I approached Ren Xiao, was he moved by his dependence? , Did you struggle when you betrayed later, etc., if everyone analyzes it individually, the story should be more fleshed out."

Wang Weilai touched his chin, thought for a while, and nodded: "It's interesting. I'll go back and discuss with the screenwriter, and change the narrative rhythm again, adding a little more supporting roles."

This is what it means to be willing to compromise. Lu Zhiyuan heaved a sigh of relief, looked at Lu Yiqian, his face was still stinky, and said in a cold voice: "Two months. After the filming of this movie in two months, they all You are an artist on the rise, time is precious, you can't let me play tricks on you."

"Look at what you're saying. Could it be that my film wasn't made popular for them?" Wang Weilai muttered, but after all, he cannibalize people and take advantage of others. He took the investment and made another unpopular film. I was also a little guilty, and said sternly, "I don't know this movie is much better than those gaudy TV dramas", and left in despair with the script.

Lu Zhiyuan looked at his back, and suddenly felt that this director's way of dealing with the world has not been strangled to death by investors and actors, which is really one of the top ten miracles in the industry.

He was amused by his own thought, and turned his head a little funny, only to hear Lu Yiqian say a little tiredly: "This time I made a mistake in thinking, I only considered that Wang Future is talented, I didn't expect him to be so unreliable. You... ...just shoot first."

This means that I am completely disappointed in this show.The four nodded. Under his influence, their emotions were not very high.Lu Yiqian seemed to think that this was not good. Before leaving, he thought about it and encouraged Ren Yuanyang: "Yuanyang, don't be too discouraged. Director Wang admires you very much. Although his movies are not popular, sometimes he will be upset. Take the big prize."

Immediately, he also realized that his encouragement was not very friendly to the remaining three, so he tried his best to smile at them: "I'm sorry for you, I'll help you find it later to see if there are any suitable dramas, if If you are lucky then, you may have to trouble both of you to run away.”

His tone was a little stagnant, not like the strong command tone before.Listening to this, Lu Zhiyuan realized for the first time that his distant cousin was not a tyrannical tyrant, but just an ordinary workaholic.He usually evaluates the market calmly and objectively, so he is full of confidence and has a tough tone; but now he has made a mistake, made a mistake in judgment, and is somewhat discouraged, living up to the glory of the day.

He thought for a while, sorted out his words, and comforted him: "Brother Yiqian, the situation is actually not that bad. Although the films directed by Wang Future are remote, there are still audiences for him."

Lu Zhiyuan has a basis for saying this. Although the number of viewers who like Wang Future's films is small, the quality is very high. In his previous life, it was because one of the viewers who were studying abroad translated Ren Yuanyang's films into English, which is trustworthy and elegant. It has everything, caused a sensation abroad, and won the best foreign language film award at the film festival at once. Only those who became famous in the first battle have the legendary stories behind.This kind of opportunity does not exist in other commercial films.

Of course, Lu Zhiyuan didn't say the following words, and Lu Yiqian only regarded him as a simple and pale comfort, smiled at him, and said: "Understood, don't worry about comforting me, you can adjust your mood yourself. Wang In the future, the reputation of Hades on the set will not be built, and he will be scolded bloody when the time comes, so don’t blame me for not reminding you.”

"He... is really scary?" Xin Tian was a little curious, "But we are only supporting roles, or are we the kind of cannon fodder that dies in a few episodes, and the requirements are also very high?"

"Then you are too naive." Lu Yiqian sneered, "It is widely rumored in the circle that Wang Weilai will become an assistant director and scold and cry three times for the tricks of a crew."

Xin Tian was startled in a daze, he came to his senses, cried and complained: "Brother Qian, you still sent us to act! You are so cruel!"

Lu Yiqian smiled kindly: "Oh, Xin Tian, ​​you're talking like it's the first day you know me—the day when I was training didn't hurt you, when did I ever treat you kindly?"

Xin Tian wailed and threw himself into Ren Yuanyang's arms.
