As if some magical power is driving it.
Sammy then asked specifically about the band.
Brother Kerry didn't understand what he was asking this for.
But it's not a secret. You two gave him a general description: "Hello Band, an old rock band, formed ten years ago, also has die-hard fans, and has also released records, I also participated in some tours, but at the same time, the bands all became popular, friends became stars, and they never became popular."
After saying this, Kerry remembered something and laughed again. He simply introduced Sammy about the current members of the band in a humorous tone: "Colin, the main construction worker, part-time singing; Jon , a fast-food restaurant chef and a part-time guitarist; Kahn, a taxi driver and a part-time bass player; Gaeling, a slaughterhouse pig butcher and a part-time drummer.”
"Ah? Wait!" Sammy was stunned.
He couldn't help but ask, "Aren't they a band? How come they still have a main job? The band is just a side business?"
Da Kerry, who has always been taciturn, couldn't help but laugh this time.
He rarely participated in this kind of small talk: "They don't want to starve to death, and they can't support themselves with a band."
Sammy is still confused: "Why is that? Their music is bad?"
The Kerry brothers showed embarrassed expressions: "How do you say this?"
In the end, it was Kerry who answered the question tangled: "Actually, we can't figure it out either."
"When they first debuted, they made classic albums. At that time, many people liked them. Even, some rock bands that appeared later developed gradually by imitating their style."
"The strange thing is that in the end, even the people who imitate them are getting more and more popular. They are the only ones who have been unknown for so many years. The records can't be sold, and the tours are losing money..."
"In the music circle, as long as they are mentioned, even if they are competitors, they will say with admiration that this is a predecessor; a band with a great musical style; a band that is enough to make a name in the history of rock and roll!"
"But it's useless to say so much. They are magically not popular, not popular, and not making money."
That being said, it's so interesting!
Sammy's mind suddenly flew to the magical Hello band, and, in the ensuing conversation with the Kerry brothers, his mind wandered again and again.
Finally, when Kerry once again mentioned whether to make a sequel to 'Snake Bane'...
He couldn't help but said: "Can you find someone to tell me about the Hello band!"
The Kerry brothers looked at each other.
Fortunately, this requirement was not difficult to meet, they made a direct phone call and called the manager of Hello Band.
When the manager heard that he was going to tell him about Hello, he almost cried, "It's really hard for them!"
The Clay brothers felt embarrassed.
But Sammy was more interested in the band.
As he heard more and more about the band from his manager, he couldn't help thinking: "I like the characters and I like the story."
So, when the manager finished talking about the band and left crying...
Sammy suggested to the Kerry brothers: "Why don't we make a movie based on this interesting band?"
The Kerry brothers were amazed: "What's so good about this?"
These two brothers are so boring, they're not good at digging out the good things in life at all.
Sammy couldn't make it clear to them.
Because their ideas are completely different, it is a collision of realism and idealism.
What the Kerry brothers wanted to hear was the promise of 'low cost, high profit, guaranteed money';
But what Sammy has in mind is 'a fun game that's fresh, new, and chasing dreams' and wants to play!
Fortunately, Sammy still has some credibility with the Kerry brothers because of "Snake Bane".
After thinking about it, the two brothers agreed.
They also promised to find a screenwriter to write the script as soon as possible.
Sammy then happily went home.
He also told Mickey in advance: "You have recently learned to sing. I plan to make a band movie, and you can play the lead singer."
Sing
Mai Qilong opened his eyes wide in surprise, patted his chest hard and assured: "Don't worry, I can do this! I have been a singer since I was a child!"
"So powerful?" Sammy was interested.
He suggested excitedly and expectantly: "Then you can sing to me."
Michaelon was not stage fright.
He immediately sank into his dantian, and suddenly opened his mouth with a roar.
That is by no means a human voice.
A roar roared out of his throat, like the low thunder of the sky rumbled.
Sammy rolled his eyes and fell back, stunned on the spot.
Michaelon was horrified.
He rushed over and cried.
Fortunately, less than half a minute.
Sammy woke up and responded, "Cool! What? I fainted? Oh, awake now! Keep playing!"
He didn't have the slightest bit of fear, and he didn't think it was a strange event. Instead, he thought that Mickey might be a gifted type, so maybe he shouldn't be an actor, but a singer. Therefore, I also warmly suggested: "You practice a lot, and don't worry about me. It was too loud just now. You can improve the volume in the future."
Mikey was so impressed!
In his opinion, the round-faced little human's smile at this moment is like a ray of sunshine, which instantly shines into his heart, sweetly: "Oh, my human being is too cute."
A week later,
The Kerry brothers sent their secretary to deliver the band script that Sammy wanted.
This speed is like riding a rocket!
Sammy never imagined that the script could be written so quickly.
Then he opened it and looked.
In the beginning, a rock band was formed.
This is correct.
The rock band went on tour.
This is also true.
In the same era, the career lines of large and small bands were basically similar.
In the early years when the Internet was underdeveloped, rock bands used to sing on tour all day long.
only,
Sammy frowned a little when he saw this: "The truth is the truth, but it's too uncharacteristic, isn't it?"
If we continue to talk like this...
You can guess the plot next time.
Sammy turned the page impatiently.
Unexpectedly, from here, the plot turned sharply!
The band tours a city and finds that there is no one alive in the city.
They were temporarily staying in an empty hotel, only to find in the middle of the night snakes crawling all over the bed, floor and ceiling!
… what the hell is this
Must escape the city or become food for snakes
Is it a familiar plot
Is it a familiar place
That's right!
The city they came to was the city occupied by snakes in "Snake Bane".
This operation... FUCK!
Sammy was very happy: "These bastards are wearing the skin of the Hello band, and they want to make "Snake Bane 2" out!"
Obviously, the Kerry brothers do want to work with Sammy.
But they are not stupid.
Come to think of it, Sammy is a monster movie hit.
But what band film is he going to make now
Although it is your freedom to shoot what you want.
But the question is, who can prove that a director who is good at making monster films can also make that band film
The Kerry brothers didn't want to agree at all, but they couldn't directly refute Sammy's meaning.
So, they came up with a script like this, hoping that after reading the script, Sammy would be able to 'return from the lost' and rediscover the beauty of monster movies, rather than obsessing about some boring band.
Sammy didn't want to argue with them.
He threw aside the disparate "Snake Bane 2" and went to outline the band's movie himself.
Before, the manager of Hello Band has talked a lot about the band.
He has been thinking about this for the past few days, so he easily pulled out a main thread.
Next, it's a matter of details.
Sammy simply ran to the Hello Band and asked in person.
Moreover, since this band was used as a prototype, I had to ask them for an authorization in advance.
Then,
At the construction site, he found the lead singer, Colin, who was moving bricks.
"I want to make a video of your band."
Sammy looked for it and came straight to the point.
The lead singer of Hello was surprised and asked, "Why?"
— I thought it was funny, for no particular reason, just wanted to shoot it.
—Then I must say, you are stupid.
Colin stood up straight with his tall and sturdy body, and looked down at the short, round-faced man in front of him condescendingly.
He said suspiciously and hilariously: "No one is interested in watching us, you know? We can't even sell records, we can only rely on our own production and sales. And, I know you, you are a director with a bright future. , talented. Why not take a picture of something that can make money? Take a boring little band like us... What can you picture?"
If Rossi, who is more communicative, is here, he should have a good talk with the lead singer about the future benefits, and how the publicity effect after being made into a movie will benefit the band. From the perspective, talk about cooperation.
But unfortunately, Sammy is not good at that.
He just insisted on the request stubbornly and earnestly, repeatedly requesting: "I just want to shoot, please allow me to shoot it."
Colin laughed again.
Maybe it's because Sammy's baby face is too small, he didn't take such childish words at all, and said casually: "In that case, I'm deeply honored."
A proverb!
He was truly honored afterwards.
