Rebirth Bias

Lu Ne originally planned to rest for a while after the movie was over, and go back to Danshan Road Street, but the plan couldn't keep up with the change, "Kill · Caution" didn't pass the trial, which suddenly made him burnt out.

Lu Ne plunged into the editing room again.There are still rumors about Chen Shiyu outside, but Chen Shiyu seems to have disappeared. Soon, new topics broke out in the entertainment industry. A certain star cheated, a certain rock singer was arrested for taking drugs. In this circle, there will never be a shortage of new topics .For Chen Shiyu, Lu Ne was powerless. In the final analysis, Lu Ne was just a small director. Chen Shiyu's contract was in the hands of the brokerage company. Life and death were his thoughts, unless Chen Shiyu was willing to pay huge liquidated damages and get out of control. But it's only been a few days since Chen Shiyu became popular, how can he have any money?

I talked to Chen Shiyu several times on the phone, and he was in a good mood, and even talked about it with a bit of disinterestedness. Instead, he chatted with Lu Ne enthusiastically about other things, saying that the two of them went together the day before he left Danshan Road Street. About playing video games, he jokingly said: "If you really want to comfort me, why don't you take me to play again, anyway, I'm just like that, so I don't have to worry about damaging my image."

Lu Ne was silent for a while, and told him that "Killing Precept" hadn't passed the trial, "...it's been a busy time."

This was a disguised refusal, Chen Shiyu also fell silent, forced a smile, "I'm just saying that casually, don't worry about it." After a pause, he asked again, "Where is the problem? Is it because of me?"

"Don't think about it, it has nothing to do with you. It's just that the scale of the pornographic scenes is too large, the violent scenes are too bloody, the tone is not positive enough, and the bad guys have not received due legal sanctions..."

"What should I do?"

"What else can I do? The arms can't twist the thighs, so change it. Don't say I didn't pass it once, there are so many films that I didn't pass it twice or three times. I'm already ready for a protracted war."

"Kill · Caution" still failed to pass the trial for the second time, making Lu Ne in a manic state. At this moment, Lu Ne received a call from Yao Litian, the special planner of Xinxing, claiming that Han Lei wanted to see him.

To be honest, Lu Na was really a little guilty. At the beginning, he raised three major requirements without shame. Now, if the film cannot pass the review, it will not be released, and the new star will not be able to recover the cost.

Still in Han Lei's office, Han Lei didn't go around in circles with Lu Na, and said straight to the point: "I'm going to let "Killing and Caution" participate in the International Film Festival."

Lu Ne immediately thought of the three major international film festivals in Europe, Cannes, Venice, and Berlin, and the next second he thought it was a fantasy.It's not that Lu Ne is underestimating himself. Although "Killing · Caution" is good, even Lu Ne thinks it is the best film he has made so far, but if he really gets it to such an authoritative film festival in Europe, to be honest, Lu Ne is a little scared. According to Su Er's words, he still doesn't want to experience such a generous and embarrassing method.

Han Lei didn't know what Lu Ne was thinking, so he just continued on his own, "Tokyo first, then Busan, then Toronto, Rome...won't win an award is the second, and the key is to gain popularity, and at the same time, cooperate with domestic companies to increase their popularity." Propaganda, forming a kind of hunger marketing in China..."

Lu Na instantly understood what Han Lei was planning, and he had to say something sincerely—it really was Han Lei.Although the international films in Tokyo and Busan are not as influential as the three major European film festivals, they still have some weight in Asia, and "Killing · Caution" is indeed more in line with Asian aesthetics in terms of subject matter taste. It can also bring back a few awards, which will also help the film to pass the review in China, and it will be more conducive to foreign distribution.

The two talked about some details about the movie. Han Lei changed the subject and said, "I invite Director Lu to come over today, and there is one more thing. I wonder if Director Lu is interested in working with me for a long time?"

Lu Na was taken aback and asked, "Han always wants to recruit me as a new star?"

Han Lei laughed, and said, "After getting along with each other for this period of time, I believe more and more that Director Lu is a rare, courageous and talented talent. I sincerely invite you."

Lu Na smiled, "Mr. Han is flattering me too much. The future of "Killing Caution" is uncertain. Whether it is a dragon or a worm is still unknown."

Han Lei joked, "Haha, so we have to hold on to Director Lu before he really takes off." Then, his expression became serious, "That's how I am, for a truly capable person like Director Lu I have never been stingy with praise and generosity. I believe that no one in the whole country dares to offer me such a condition. Except for the high signing bonus and film remuneration, I may promise you no less than 2% of the box office dividend, and It has the right to select and hire actors and the final editing right of the movie."

After filming "The Book of Laughter and Forgetting", Lu Ne has received olive branches from many film giants, but no company has such generous conditions. Agreed, but hesitated.

Han Lei seemed to see Lu Ne's thoughts, and said with a smile, "Of course, I can understand that this kind of thing can't be decided on the fly. Director Lu can go back and think about it slowly. I know Director Lu and Second Young Master Su have a good relationship. The last movie Second Young Master Su Just donate generously to solve Director Lu's urgent needs, but let me tell you the truth, with Director Lu's current popularity, if you want to make a movie, as long as the project is attractive, many investors will rush to invest in you, but the movie is not It’s not that the more money the better, but it depends on the combination of resources. Just like Su Ershao, 2000 to [-] million is not a problem for him at all, but this money is “money of no value”, and we are new stars, we have Hong Kong And overseas resources, as well as theaters under its banner, if the partner of "Lover Vine" was a new star, then I can tell you that the box office will definitely exceed [-] million."

Lu Na stood up and shook hands with Han Lei, "I will seriously consider Mr. Han's proposal."

Han Lei nodded and smiled, "Then I'll wait for good news from Director Lu." As he said that, he personally sent Lu Ne to the door when he suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, I heard that Director Lu and Chen Shiyu are good friends?"

Lu Na was surprised that Han Lei would mention Chen Shiyu, and nodded, "Yes."

Han Lei had a slight smile on his face, "To be honest, I really admire this person. It's a waste of money to keep him cold. A star, no matter whether he praises or insults, as long as he is topical, he has infinite value. , such a person is talented and ambitious, although he is a bit disobedient, but as long as he is given a chance, he will definitely turn defeat into victory, I intend to recruit him, but I heard that he has some troubles with Second Young Master Su."

Lu Na was startled, "Where did Mr. Han hear about this?"

Han Lei smiled secretly, "Why didn't Director Lu know? As far as I know, Chen Shiyu's agency originally wanted to keep him in storage for a while as punishment for his outrageous behavior, at least not before his value was completely squeezed out." He will be thrown away casually, but it seems that Second Young Master Su has used some connections—in short, if Second Young Master Su hadn't suddenly shown kindness and stopped, Chen Shiyu probably would have ended up here."

Lu Ne frowned, "Is this the case?"

Han Lei shrugged, "I have dealt with First Young Master Su a few times, but I have only heard about this Second Young Master Su. It is rumored that this Second Young Master is a famous gangster. If possible, I don't want to confront him. Conflict, since Director Lu is a friend of the two, can you help me see if there is room for change."

Lu Ne sat on the driver's seat of the car with an unpredictable expression. After a while, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Su Er's number.It was a bit noisy on the other end of the phone, probably in a club or something.

Lu Ne asked him, "Where are you?"

Su Er's voice was lazy, "Oh, it's in Midu, just on the border of Tenghai, are you coming?"

"Ah."

The author has something to say: Su Er has never been a good person~ In this article, no one is perfect, and no one stands on the high ground of morality. Chen Shiyu has something wrong, and Su Er also has it. Of course, to prevent you from guessing, the plot To be clear, it wasn't him who broke the news.
