November 17.
Pei Qian received a call from Huang Sibo and wanted to go to Feihuang Studio to finalize the script, and by the way, also confirm some other matters about the filming.
More than two weeks have passed since Pei Qian's script was written.
During the past two weeks, Zhu Xiaoce and the screenwriters of Feihuang Studio were constantly improving the script given by President Pei, and at the same time, they were also carrying out preliminary preparations.
Now that the script has been finalized, Pei Qian, as the film's sponsor, must still have to make a decision. This is a matter of attitude.
Of course, if Pei Qian finds that Zhu Xiaoce's changes to the script are too great, and the toxicity is seriously weakened, he must say something.
President Pei has become more and more Buddhist when it comes to ideas and decisions.
Because he found out, no matter how you choose, the backstab will come as promised!
When making "Fortress at Sea", Pei Qian just gave the general direction, and the details let employees play freely, and then the game became popular;
When working as "Game Producer", Pei Qian digs into the details word by word, making Lu Mingliang a tool man, but the game is still popular;
When investing in Ma Yang, Pei Qian did not have too many requirements on the direction of investment, and did not limit the performance of the old horse at all, however...
All in all, it's all tears.
Pei Qian found out that it seems that no matter how much he manages the project, the final result is the same.
If that's the case, why bother with that...
It would be too tiring to ask President Pei to pick out the words word by word like the original "Game Producer".
So Pei Qian planned to go to Feihuang Studio to take a look, walk through the motions, put forward a little "opinion" of his own as much as possible, and symbolically resist it and it's over.
The so-called man makes things happen, and things happen in heaven. This kind of thing cannot be forced.
Pei Qian came to the office of Feihuang Studio, and Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce welcomed him into the reception room.
After such a long period of development, Feihuang Studio's staffing has been quite complete, including director, screenwriter, set management, post-production, editing, special effects, etc. The entire office area looks quite lively, and they are all busy preparing for new dramas.
When he came to the reception room, Pei Qian took a sip of tea, and the first thing he did was tell Huang Sibo.
"Although Feihuang Studio is currently thriving, don't forget the spirit of Tenda. It's a good thing that everyone's enthusiasm for work is high, but you must not turn a blind eye to the problem of overtime, understand?"
Huang Sibo hurriedly nodded: "Mr. Pei, don't worry, all the rules, regulations and benefits of Feihuang Studio are in line with Tengda, how could you do such a rebellious thing."
Pei Qian nodded, very satisfied with Huang Sibo's statement.
Zhu Xiaoce handed over a thick stack of scripts: "Mr. Pei, this is the completed script, please take a look. If there is some content in it that is not in line with your original intention, please point it out, and we will revise it repeatedly."
Pei Qian took over the thick script and saw the name of the movie for the first time.
Before, Pei Qian just wrote a simple outline of the story and did not name the movie.
However, Zhu Xiaoce and the screenwriting team of Feihuang Studio not only completed the detailed content of the script, but also gave the movie a name.
"Better Tomorrow".
There is also an English name called "torro is beautiful".
Seeing this name, Pei Qian couldn't help but secretly gave a thumbs up.
it is good!
Nice job!
This is a script of the return of all poisons, and it is absolutely depressing after reading it.
And the name of this movie does not reflect the toxicity of the movie at all, but is highly deceptive.
"Better Tomorrow", the name sounds like a very warm literary film, it can definitely deceive a lot of people who don't know the truth, and maybe there are sweet couples.
Shouldn't this be called a dog? Word of mouth absolutely collapsed!
Pei Qian nodded slightly and continued to look down.
Seeing President Pei nodding, Zhu Xiaoce, who was sitting opposite, couldn't help but cheer up.
My script was approved by President Pei!
My interpretation of this script is absolutely correct!
Obviously, President Pei also understood the deep meaning of the name of the movie, and sure enough, there is such a sympathy between geniuses!
Pei Qian didn't know Zhu Xiaoce's excitement at this time. He casually flipped through the thick script and picked out a few episodes to focus on.
The original simple outline of the story has been expanded into very detailed, including the set, lines, actions, etc., so that people can roughly make up the picture of the movie.
Pei Qian has only one feeling: the poison is added to the poison!
Although the outline of the previous script was poisonous, it was only an outline after all, and the plot was very brief. But now, the dialogues, expressions, etc. of the heroine and the hero have been written in detail. If you think about the bgm at that time, this is toxic...
Simply bursting.
Pei Qian couldn't bear to read it, too bad!
After a cursory look, Pei Qian confirmed that Zhu Xiaoce and the screenwriting team did not make any changes to the outline of the story, but honestly refined the story and expanded it into a script.
The toxicity has not weakened at all, on the contrary, due to the increase in details, the toxicity has been greatly enhanced!
Seeing this, Pei Qian felt at ease.
If it is filmed honestly, it will definitely be a script for the return of all poisons!
"This script is perfect!"
"I am very satisfied."
Pei Qian highly praised the work of Zhu Xiaoce and the screenwriting team.
Zhu Xiaoce couldn't help but smile: "Where, it's President Pei's script well written, we just did some trivial work."
The two were chatting when Pei Qian's phone rang.
Pei Qian saw that it was Chang You who called.
"Hello? President Pei, I want to tell you that the preparatory work is almost completed, the office space is done, and my brothers have also joined the job."
"Today we want to determine the product form of the mobile phone a little bit, including some preliminary work task planning. If you have time, can you come and guide the work?"
Guiding work
This is a bit unfortunate.
Pei Qian still had to talk to Zhu Xiaoce and the others about the script at Feihuang Studio. I guess he didn't have time today.
Is it "guiding" the successful and experienced Feihuang Studio, or "guiding" the failed fantasy group
The choice is obvious.
Of course, Pei Qian can also ask Changyou and the others to meet again tomorrow, but after thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem to make sense to let everyone wait for a day because of this.
Pei Qian felt that he could not interfere in too many things about Otto Technology. On the one hand, it would easily affect the performance of Dream Sky Group; on the other hand, after taking the initiative to intervene, the mobile phone was broken, which means that President Pei helped Lin Wan share a part of the pot, which is not good for Lin. I figured it out late and went back to inherit the family business.
"Let's discuss it first, I still have something to do here, so I won't go over."
"You don't have to ask me for instructions on everything, just let it go."
Changyou: "Okay President Pei! Please rest assured, we will definitely complete the task!"
After hanging up, Pei Qian and Zhu Xiaoce continued to discuss the script.
Zhu Xiaoce hesitated: "Mr. Pei, there is still an undetermined question."
"You should have noticed that the names of the characters in this script have not yet been determined. This is because we can't make up our minds whether the protagonist of this story should be an Easterner or a Westerner?"
"In the outline of your story, it seems that this is a future world only vaguely mentioned, but there is no emphasis on information such as country."
Pei Qian nodded, um, this is indeed a problem.
"Since it's something that happens in the future world, the country factor must be blurred."
"Again, this kind of story can't happen in our country."
"The characters, sets, etc. in the play are all in English, and the lines are also in English."
"The main actor is also looking for foreigners. If you can't find a suitable one, you will find a Chinese actor who can speak English well. The identity in the play does not need to be stated clearly, and the audience will naturally understand that this is Chinese."
Pei Qian felt that foreign actors must be more expensive than domestic ones!
Since you can spend more money, you can't let it go.
Zhu Xiaoce nodded quickly: "Yes, President Pei, I think so too."
"However, there may be a problem, that is... It is difficult for us to be big-name actors abroad, even those with average reputations."
"After all, Feihuang Studio is the first time to make such a theatrical film. It is basically unknown in foreign countries. Even if you give money, it is difficult for those well-known actors to travel across the sea to Jingzhou..."
"So, it's easy to solve the problem of dragon tricks. It's these few leading actors, especially the male lead and this judge... It's not easy to handle."
"Because these two people have a lot of scenes, they also have relatively high requirements for acting."
"So you see, can these two actors be cast by domestic actors?"
Pei Qian thought for a while: "Okay."
"But... You can't invite famous foreign actors, so can domestic ones be able to?"
Zhu Xiaoce smiled helplessly: "It's not good either."
"But domestic actors, after all, it's easier to communicate, and they have a better chance of winning."
Pei Qian originally wanted to say that he could just find a few newcomers from the school to be the protagonists for a film, but then he thought about it, the newcomers were asking for too low a salary, and the remuneration wasn't much.
No matter what, you have to find one or two coffees with a higher position. Otherwise, the budget for the actor's salary is estimated to be inexhaustible.
But who to look for? This is another question.
Pei Qian suddenly thought of a candidate.
I know one of the domestic actors, and I have worked together before!
Fried pork trotters!
Zhang Zuting has been hacked a lot since his last endorsement of "Blood War Song", but he is a natural fan in the depths, which has brought him a lot of traffic, and even he himself does not reject the name "fried pig's trotter" anymore. .
Of course, Pei Qian still remembered this old friend.
Lao Zhang is Tengda's good friend, so he can't be treated badly. As the saying goes, fat and water don't flow to outsiders' fields. With such a high salary, he must be the first.
At that time, even if the show hits the streets and gets hacked, everyone who scolds it will definitely be the screenwriter.
As long as Lao Zhang's acting skills in the movie pass the test, the audience will never hate him.
Moreover, there is a character in the script that is very suitable for Lao Zhang, and that is this bad judge.
The more Pei Qian thought about it, the more suitable it was, and said, "I can also help with actors."
"I'll get in touch with Zhang Zuting in a while and ask him about the schedule. If possible, let him be the judge."
"As for the leading role... You look for it, I will look for it, and we will discuss if there is a suitable candidate."
Zhu Xiaoce was very pleasantly surprised: "Zhang Zuting? Of course he would be good if he could. He is an old actor, and his acting skills are definitely not to be picked! Moreover, his English is quite good, and he can speak English throughout the filming process."
"President Pei really has a wide range of contacts!"
