"Your creativity is integral to our film!"
The crew of the new movie "Interstellar Tracking" that is being filmed has a lot of trust in Su Tan, and the screenwriter is also paid generously. Su Tan calms down and thinks about the script in hand.
However, after carefully reading the script, he gradually discovered something surprising. Now the whole script in his hands has been polished for the most part, the storyboards are detailed and meticulous, and the scenes are scattered and orderly. No matter from the story itself or from the logic point of view, it is a well-written and perfect story with many highlights and ingeniousness. , there are no major flaws or problems, and the entire script creation is only the final finishing stage.
But obviously, the crew didn't expect him to make any breakthroughs in script writing, but warmly invited him to provide more ideas and highlights.
Such an approach made Su Tan a little puzzled. From a creative point of view, although a good script needs constant polishing, the main line and framework of the nearly completed script are almost determined, and any slight changes will affect the whole body, not to mention the creativity and thinking. Such a crucial thing. Move a little bit, it's almost like overthrowing and starting over.
Why did the other party go to all lengths and ask him to provide revision ideas when the script is close to completion and ready to shoot
Su Tan was puzzled, and simply put all the mysteries aside, Shen Xin focused on polishing the script, and seriously submitted the revised script to the crew.
Director Goff was full of enthusiasm, praised the newly revised script, patted him on the shoulder hard and smiled. "Good! The idea is ingenious!"
The other party was full of smiles, finally living up to everyone's expectations, Su Tan also heaved a sigh of relief, smiled and shook his head in response.
Handing over the revised script completely to the crew, even though Su Tan had come to an end in this screenwriting contact work, it still made him feel a little unsatisfied.
Su Tan sighed indescribably in his heart, and suddenly felt that this work was much simpler than he expected, and it was unbelievably smooth and easy. Even, compared to the generous reward he got, he couldn't help thinking that it was too generous. What he has done is far from worth such a generous price.
Could it be that the interstellar entertainment circle is throwing money like it's worthless
After much deliberation, Su Tan couldn't come up with a clue, and could only attribute it to the fact that the other party was not short of money. Unexpectedly, two weeks later, the crew of "Interstellar Tracking" will start filming, and all the main creative members will be interviewed by a media on the eve of the filming start, and the first announcement will be made exclusively.
The crew unexpectedly invited Su Tan to participate.
He was disrespectful, and he was invited to go, and the address happened to be the screenwriting studio he had been to last time. A small living room on the second floor was arranged as a temporary interview room, surrounded by numerous lights, boards, and cameras. Seeing that Director Goff was doing a personal interview and the room was full of people, Su Tan simply greeted the assistant director and walked to the screenwriting studio next door.
Although he has only worked with the crew for a short time, he is also very concerned about this script that he has spent his painstaking efforts and creativity on.
At this time, as soon as he entered the gate of the screenwriting studio, he looked up and saw a younger member of the screenwriting team inside alone, busy on the phone.
Su Tan couldn't help saying hello with a smile, turning his head to see a pile of bound scripts that were randomly spread on the table and ready to be distributed to the actors, and suddenly became curious. He smiled brightly and raised his voice to ask, "Can I see it?"
The young screenwriter was in a hurry to deal with an urgent job, and he was too busy right now, and he didn't have time to raise his head, so he hurriedly agreed: "What? Oh, okay."
Su Tan stopped disturbing the other party and opened the final version of the script with peace of mind, looking forward to it.
The positioning of this movie is obviously an action commercial blockbuster. When I first took over the task of screenwriting, the outline and framework of the whole movie had already been set up. After Su Tan thought carefully, without changing the overall framework, I tried my best to add a few explosive jokes and reverse interesting plots to the script, and tried my best to package this routine-style commercial film with an unusual anti-routine effect.
For this reason, during that time, Su Tan stayed up all night for several consecutive nights, pondering deeply, carefully planning, and finally came up with the most suitable innovation for the script itself after overthrowing countless unreasonable and incoherent ideas.
The difficulty of adapting and perfecting the script is even more difficult than getting him to rethink and write a new novel.
Su Tan has spent countless energy, and at this time he actually got the finalized script that is about to start shooting, and he couldn't help feeling a little excited.
He really wants to see his creativity displayed in the script, and finally put on the big screen by actors and directors, shining brightly.
This completely different experience filled Su Tan with a sense of anticipation like never before, and he carefully and quickly scanned the entire script from beginning to end.
However-
No!
Su Tan was slightly taken aback, and the hand holding the script paused for a second, feeling a little dumbfounded. He frowned, and patiently read the script from beginning to end for the second time, but he still didn't find any creative and revision suggestions that he carefully put forward. The script was still the version he saw at first, and he didn't leave any suggestions trace.
Only in the corner of a scene, he added a funny line full of jokes written by him, which added a funny and comic effect to the boring transitional plot.
besides-
Su Tan's heart sank slightly, he closed his eyes slightly, and closed the script in his hand.
— His role is almost zero.
When he opened his eyes again, there was no annoyance on Su Tan's face, but a calm smile on his face.
Seeing the young screenwriter finished the phone call and was turning around, his clean voice suddenly sounded in the screenwriting room. "Is this the final version of the script?"
The young screenwriter was taken aback, turned his head stiffly, met Su Tan's calm eyes, and immediately understood that he had already known the inside story of the script, and he couldn't help but stumbled, not knowing how to explain it.
"Yes, yes." The young screenwriter nodded hurriedly, lowered his head to avoid his eyes, and hurriedly took the script out of his hands. The whole stack of beautifully bound scripts was moved to a side cabinet and shelved.
Seeing his movements, Su Tan suddenly chuckled and asked, "Is this script already decided?"
None of his suggestions were adopted. It was obvious that the production team had their own ideas, grasped the big picture and details of the script, and would not let a random idea change the overall layout.
That being the case, why invite him to join the screenwriting team
Hearing his sharp question, the young screenwriter fell silent for a moment. He was sweating profusely. He never expected that Su Tan would see the script ahead of time because of his carelessness. He was afraid that he would offend him.
Right now, he could only try his best to explain: "No, the director has his own thoughts and ideas..." At the end, he stopped talking, and couldn't say any more.
Coincidentally, a staff member came in and called Su Tan to come over for an interview, and after calling him away, the young screenwriter was greatly relieved, and then he realized that he was covered in cold sweat and had lingering fears.
"Su Tan, come quickly!" The chief director of the film, Gao Fu, was full of spring breeze. Although his stretched face was not as handsome as a movie actor, the enthusiasm and vitality on his face added a radiant charm to him, making everyone in front of and behind the camera Countless people are born close.
Gao Fu had long heard about Su Tan's low profile, and had never shown his face in front of the camera. At this time, he had already considered it carefully. After discussing a word with the interview media, he asked the other party to turn off the camera lens, and only one interview reporter was left. Sitting in front of the two of them with a notebook, ready to record the conversation with a pen.
Such thoughtfulness, if it is applied to a new screenwriter who has just entered the entertainment industry, it will definitely make people deeply grateful, like a spring breeze.
But Su Tan just thanked him with a modest smile, and after sending a message in a low-key manner, he sat down beside the director.
Gao Fu laughed heartily and warmly embraced Su Tan's shoulders, and praised the interviewer without hesitation: "I don't need to introduce this one, Su Tan, the hottest best-selling author right now, his talent and strength are far ahead of his peers. They are all outstanding. We are also very honored to be invited to join our "Star Tracking" creative team this time."
The eager attitude, close hugs and high praise immediately attracted the great attention of the reporters. Although Su Tan is a newcomer in the film industry, his popularity has always remained high, making headlines many times.
Not to mention the popular movie "Explorer's Letters", which was adapted from his novel some time ago, just talking about the recent turmoil of cohabiting in a low-key manner with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Empire has aroused a huge amount of topics, and countless media are flocking to it.
Now, there is an opportunity to interview this rare author face to face, and the reporters present are eagerly looking, ready to show their talents, and seize this rare opportunity to ask a good question.
"Writer Su, does His Royal Highness know about your participation in the creation of the "Star Tracking" movie this time? He supports—"
But he never expected that Su Tan would suddenly and forcefully reject his question as soon as he raised it.
"Sorry." Su Tan said with a clear smile and sincere eyes, "Today's protagonist is the new film directed by Goff, so I won't overwhelm the audience and answer personal questions."
This resounding sentence immediately blocked all the questions that the reporter was eager to ask, and they could not ask any more questions.
The living room was silent for a moment, no one expected Su Tan's response to be so firm, neither humble nor overbearing.
Immediately, all the media and reporters present were dumbfounded, speechless for a moment, looked at Su Tan in surprise, and then at Director Gao Fu beside him.
Su Tan smiled lightly, took the initiative to take over the conversation, and said in a clear and clean voice, "Now let's talk about the new movie script."
The reporter was in a panic, and the stack of question books he had prepared suddenly became useless at this moment, and he was still thinking about the private daily relationship between Su Tan and His Royal Highness. Did not turn the corner.
Obviously, when the crew met them in advance, they defaulted to the promotion of Su Tan focusing on his huge popularity and his unique status as the lover of the crown prince. Why did the wind suddenly change in front of my eyes
Considering the interview mission this time, and the next first round of warm-up and publicity focus of the new movie "Interstellar Tracking", a considerable part of it is to take advantage of the heat on Su Tan, which has aroused the enthusiasm of fans and fans. Netizens' attention.
If there is no shocking news from today's interview, the publicity effect of all their work will be greatly reduced.
Realizing this, the reporter's heart suddenly cleared up. He took a deep breath, and quickly glanced at Director Goff at the side. Seeing that the other party's face was calm, without any intention of blocking or speaking, the reporter simply mustered up his courage and prepared to fight, trying to pry Su Tan's mouth open. , Come up with truly weighty privacy news.
However, just as he mustered up his courage, Shen Sheng was about to ask a question when his eyes suddenly met Su Tan's calm gaze that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and his heart skipped a beat.
Even though Su Tan's smile was clear and clean, without any lethality or resentment and intimidation, when the reporter saw Su Tan's bright smile with deep meaning, his mind was shocked, and he suddenly felt a huge pressure from it, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on the top. The general attack made him break out in a cold sweat.
The momentary hot-blooded mind suddenly figured out a crucial point.
Su Tan is indeed a newcomer in the entertainment and film circles, with huge topics and hot spots on his body, as long as he can dig deeper, he can dig out shocking news that can shake all the online media in the empire, making their website and magazine a well-deserved hit center.
but-
How did he forget who was the man standing side by side with Su Tan
That's Hayden Longman!
His Majesty the Crown Prince of the Empire, who can block the media's propaganda and reports in an instant, even if the film crew of "Interstellar Tracking" has already reached a tacit agreement with their magazine, tacitly preparing to take advantage of the popularity of Su Tan's topic, but this How can a move of chess be so easy
Suddenly, the reporter who was sitting across from Su Tan holding a notebook and preparing to interview felt a chill down his back, and his internal organs were seized by a huge chill.
Under Su Tan's gaze, the pen that fell on the paper couldn't write any more. The outline of the questions that he had prepared in advance had become a piece of waste paper, and every question that shocked the inside story was revealed on it. He was not ready to ask any more questions.
The reporter wiped the cold sweat from his palms, smiled with difficulty, and responded to Su Tan: "Okay, let's focus on the movie."
An interview was straightforward, and the reporter suddenly became uncharacteristically cautious, careful to avoid all sensitive areas, and just followed the usual practice to ask a few minor questions about script creation.
Su Tan answered one by one with a smile, but he was very cooperative in answering questions. Although his ideas and suggestions for revision were not adopted by the crew, he had just read the entire movie script, and he knew the key points of the explosion. Zhenxiang, speaking now, naturally and tacitly praised the good-looking and thoughtful script.
All the people present knew the scene of exchanging greetings and compliments like this. But looking at the huge treasure house of topic speed on the other party, but unable to dig it out, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious and disappointed for a while.
This scene was seen by Su Tan, as if he had never heard of it, he cooperated with the interview with a gurgling smile, shook hands with the reporter and director Gao Fu modestly, stood up and prepared to leave.
Director Goff couldn't get enough of it, with a warm smile on his face, he greeted enthusiastically: "Don't rush to leave, we will have a small party to celebrate the launch later, you can't miss it!"
His warm tone instantly heated up the somewhat too calm indoor atmosphere.
Many crews and magazines laughed cooperatively and said, "That's right! We finally met with the author of Su Da in person, and we have to have a good drink today."
"Writer Su, you are also a member of the screenwriting team, and you are also responsible for this upcoming movie script!"
"We were all busy in the preparatory stage, and we didn't have time to get to know each other well. Today is the best opportunity to exchange feelings."
…
The atmosphere at the scene was lively, and many people responded to stop him from leaving. The shooting of the film is about to start, and every powerful and famous actor, screenwriter, main creator, and director is like a weight to increase the weight of this film. Naturally, they must be firmly tied together to ensure that the film is sold well.
And Su Tan is a huge gimmick carefully selected by the film investment and production side. It doesn't matter what work he did in the film's preparation and shooting, and it doesn't matter whether he made any achievements. As long as his popularity and topicality can be firmly tied to the promotion of the film, attracting attention and attracting fans, then His value is already enough to match the high remuneration.
Director Goff embraced his shoulder affectionately, and encouraged him: "Don't rush to leave today, get together with the big guys, get acquainted with each other, and you will be considered an acquaintance in the circle in the future."
For the newcomers, this must be said to be heart-warming.
Being personally recommended by a well-known and capable director, and officially stepping into the film industry, this level of specification can be said to be the dream of every newcomer entering the entertainment industry.
But Su Tan shook his head and smiled when he heard this, and replied with a very regretful smile: "Sorry, someone downstairs has already come to pick me up."
He sent a message to the captain of the Royal Guard Olesen in advance, entrusting him to pick him up, just in case the crew would continue to tie up his popularity and love affairs and cause trouble for Hayden.
Therefore, Su Tan could only ask Olesen to pick him up and leave. He hoped that this identity and appearance would make the film crew and the interviewing media stop vigilantly. Enough is enough.
"Someone is coming to pick you up?" Hearing Su Tan's words, Director Gao Fu didn't take it seriously at first, and didn't care, and then continued, "Let him go back first. After the banquet, I will personally send someone to take you home safely. , don't worry!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his bold tone was still in his ears, when he was suddenly reminded in a low voice by a staff member who rushed over suddenly.
"Downstairs is the car of the Langman family... The royal guards came to greet them in person..."
It was difficult for the staff to utter the reminder. Although they tried their best to keep their voices down, several people nearby could hear them clearly. The expression on the face of the interviewing magazine reporter who was standing next to him suddenly changed, and he immediately became vigilant and low-key.
When Director Gao Fu heard this, his eyes were fixed for a second, and then he quickly returned to normal, his smile remained unchanged, and his tone of warmly and forcefully inviting Su Tan to the banquet finally eased.
"Since you still have something to do, it's time for another day." Gao Fu said regretfully, patted Su Tan on the shoulder, and never said anything about other things, but took the lead and insisted on sending him to the downstairs door.
Su Tan couldn't refuse with a smile, and was escorted downstairs by Director Goff, leading the crew and creators, to the gate of the studio.
In front of the door, there is a low-key and elegant car parked. The dark color and the streamlined sports car shape complement each other. The exterior of the car body is even more strikingly printed with the emblem of the Langman family, which makes everyone's gaze unstoppable. Gathered on the badge pattern with complicated and beautiful patterns.
Oleson stood tall and straight, his calm and majestic demeanor made everyone present not dare to underestimate him.
The car of the Langman family and the personal escort of the Royal Guards, such a big posture and pomp, made everyone who saw this scene moved, and the tacit understanding gave rise to a feeling of admiration in their hearts.
Even though Su Tan's initial impression in many people's eyes was just a talented and lucky newcomer author who unexpectedly won the favor of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he was still a blank slate who knew nothing about the film industry. Their experience is not comparable, and many people can't help feeling alienated and arrogant.
But when they saw the sky-high priced sports car and the royal staff waiting outside the studio, they really felt the difference between Su Tan and them, and it was hard to explain the soreness and astringency in their hearts.
For director Goff and the magazine interviewed today, such a pick-up is tantamount to a silent hint and warning.
Gao Fu stopped in time, and said to Su Tan with a smile on his face: "Go back quickly, you have worked hard these days, take a good rest. If there is a chance, let's meet again."
He has worked hard in the entertainment industry for many years, and he has already polished the skills of Circus to a natural degree, without leaking any water. At this time, he said these words very naturally, without the slightest abruptness or inappropriateness.
Su Tan responded with a knowing smile, and was about to walk towards the Langman family's car.
Unexpectedly, Olesen, who was waiting outside the car, stepped forward respectfully, and said in a respectful and calm tone in front of everyone: "His Royal Highness is here too, and he will come to take you home in person."
Hearing this unexpected news, Su Tan paused and looked up at the car in surprise.
All I saw was that the car window there was slowly lowered, and a handsome and straight face appeared in everyone's sight.
Hayden raised his eyes, his deep eyes were darkened, and he smiled lightly and raised his brows. "the job is done?"
Everyone present looked at this scene in astonishment, their eyes were shocked, and they lost their voices.
Even though they had never seen the real face of the Crown Prince of the Empire with their own eyes, the sneak photos of Su Tan and Hayden were widely exposed on the Internet not long ago, which attracted a lot of attention.
Oleson's words just now, and the noble car with the Langman family crest, have already revealed the identity of the man in the car.
Even Director Goff, who has always been enthusiastic and forthright, was stunned for a moment, staring at Hayden in disbelief, "His Royal Highness?"
Hayden nodded, his sharp eyes swept over Goff's face, and immediately made him feel a huge pressure.
If it is said that he had some thoughts of binding and using Su Tan before, now he is forced to dissipate completely under Hayden's sight.
He dared to invite Su Tan to his film screenwriting team in this way. It was nothing more than relying on his years of experience and pivotal position in the entertainment industry. Invincible.
For this method of using fame to tie up hype to create topics, he is naturally familiar with it, and he is familiar with it. It is often seen in the marketing methods of him and the current film and TV dramas, and it has already become a common practice in the circle.
Gao Fu was very self-reliant and secretly relied on, thinking that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not stand up for Su Tan in such trivial matters. After all, the remuneration he offered to Su Tan as a screenwriter was quite high, and he led Su Tan into the film industry with gentle words, which would only benefit Su Tan's future development.
Therefore, he is very confident.
But when he was really caught off guard and saw Hayden appearing in front of him, the film director Goff felt a chill in his heart for the first time. Under the calm gaze of the other party, the pressure all over his body was like a tide, almost overwhelming him. Drowning.
He was a little trembling and couldn't bear it, so he had to lower his posture for the first time, and said in a low trembling voice: "The work of the crew is over, don't worry."
This last sentence was almost uttered by him in a low hoarse voice, with a pun containing deep meanings that both of them knew well, completely declaring the surrender of his petty actions.
Hayden was noncommittal, raised the corners of his lips, and said succinctly, "Thanks for your hard work."
Goff's back shivered, and the chill hit his whole body, but he almost couldn't resist such a simple sentence. In an instant, he thought of the various methods of the royal family's secret and indifferent ways to deal with the enemy, and his psychological defense was completely defeated.
Overwhelmed by the tremendous pressure, he was eager to explain something, but suddenly he felt a calm and comfortable hand tap his shoulder twice, and Su Tan's clean voice with a smile sounded beside him.
"I bid farewell, see you another day."
All of a sudden, Su Tan turned against the guest and completely dominated the situation. He waved to Gao Fu and the crew with a smile, and left.
Until the car disappeared from everyone's sight, many people present still couldn't come to their senses, and stood there with complicated expressions.
"His Royal Highness?" Goff sighed, and laughed at himself, "Being able to see His Highness in person is already of extraordinary value."
Having said that, the rest of the people looked at each other in blank dismay, and looked at each other in a rare silence.
So what if you see it, who dares to expose it? After His Highness showed up in person, he still used Su Tan and himself to hype up, it was absolutely fatal! Who would dare to do this
The crew was silent for a while.
In the carriage of the Langman family, who were speeding calmly, there was also silence. Although Su Tan curled the corners of his lips and asked his eldest cousin beside him why he came in person, Hayden could see his depressed mood at a glance through his too calm and unwavering black eyes.
Even her fair and slender fingers unconsciously fell on the black and cold leather seat, curling up slightly in an arc.
Hayden sighed softly, suddenly stretched out his arms, embraced Su Tan, hugged him and sat on his lap, the boy's smooth black hair was tightly held in his warm and generous palm, and his downcast face was deeply buried. into his chest.
Through the shirt and fine workman's suit jacket, Su Tan pressed against Hayden's hot and powerful chest, and the steady heartbeat washed over his ears like waves, making him feel a sense of security involuntarily. and a sense of peace of mind.
Hearing the powerful heartbeats and feeling the warm and familiar embrace that cannot be separated, Su Tan couldn't help pressing against the big cousin's chest. After a long time, he apologized in a low voice. , "I'm sorry, I didn't intend to trouble you."
In his preconceived idea, it was enough to ask Olesen to come to the crew to warn the director and crew to stop hyping up his and Hayden's private affairs as a movie promotional gimmick.
He never expected that Hayden would waste time and energy to come in person, since the end of next year will be the busiest time for things.
"I should have guessed the answer."
Annoyed and guilty, Su Tan arched her head into the big cousin's arms, and stretched out her arms to hug the other party's handsome and tall body under the suit with great apology.
In Hayden's sight, Su Tan was hugging him tightly like a koala at this moment. For the first time, the usually firm and calm boy showed a confused expression like a small animal, which made Hayden bend over. lip corners.
The warm and wide palm suddenly raised his hand, rubbing the boy's soft black hair into a mess, Hayden asked with a low smile, "If you don't want to bother me, then who do you want to bother?"
"No matter who it is, I don't agree."
His relaxed and joking tone brought great comfort to Su Tan's depressed mood, and finally the head buried tightly in his chest couldn't help but look up.
Unexpectedly, a warm and comforting kiss greeted him with his head bowed, and it happened to land on his lips, comforting his mood silently and tenderly, making Su Tan indulge in it involuntarily.
Unknowingly, he didn't even realize that he had grasped Hayden's shirt tightly at some point, and pulled the other party closer to him, making that tender and tender kiss even closer.
It wasn't until his breathing was exhausted that Su Tan felt the end of the kiss, which made him feel reluctant to part with him suddenly, but the depression that filled his heart disappeared without knowing it, leaving only the warmth and throbbing of his heart.
Suddenly, Su Tan reached out and pulled Hayden's shirt closer, forcing him to lower his head, and took the initiative to kiss the big cousin hard on the lips.
His eyes were bright, he regained his vigor and vigor, stretched his brows and raised his voice and asked: "The next movie script, how about I write a commercial action movie?"
