Another World Under My Pen

"To be honest, sometimes I really don't understand you!"

Looking at Sun Peng who was sitting leisurely watching the film, Wei Xiaolin couldn't help but shook his head and said: "The news about you has been so lively recently. I don't know how many people are waiting for you to come out and say a few words. After you came back, you just posted two Weibos, and then you just hid here...this heart is really big!"

"Haha, what can be more important than our movie?"

Glancing at Wei Xiaolin, Sun Peng waved his hand disapprovingly.

"...Well, you are great!"

Sun Peng took a sip of coffee as he turned his head. Wei Xiaolin found that he had no other way to express his admiration except for giving him a thumbs up.

Wei Xiaolin reminded himself once again, don't always use mortal thinking to reason about Sun Peng's reaction.

With an ordinary person...no, it should be said that from the perspective of an ordinary entertainment industry person, there is no doubt that Lao Bai should be the most active stage now. Spirited Away broke the record at the box office, Chen Feifei's album sold out, martial arts sealed the pen, and the slam dunk ended. In addition, the promotion of "Frozen" was in full swing, and Lao Bai himself made a big news in the Knicks...

Shouldn't this time be to show the limelight everywhere and maximize the benefits?

result……

"So, is strength fundamental?"

Looking at Sun Peng, who opened the trailer for the first version of "Kill Bill" again in a leisurely manner to check if there are any problems, Wei Xiaolin had a kind of understanding-if he could also write so many popular novels or comics, If you can make enough money, you can customize a movie for yourself. Just like Sun Peng, why bother to be an assistant director for others, or beg grandpa and grandma everywhere for investment...

"Oh, yes, old Wei."

Just when Wei Xiaolin was sighing, Sun Peng suddenly turned his head and smiled: "Remember that I once said that I want to create a script for you... ahem, do you remember this?"

"Nonsense, of course remember!"

Suddenly, his breathing became quicker, and Wei Xiaolin's heartbeat began to accelerate.

How could he forget?

Not only is to create a script for him, but Sun Peng also promised to fill up all the investment loopholes. In other words, no matter how much investment Wei Xiaolin can bring in, even if a penny cannot be brought in, Sun Peng will make up all the money and let Wei Xiaolin make the movie!

This is in return for his help with two consecutive movies, how can he forget it?

"Haha, then there are two options now."

After a moment of indulgence, Sun Peng raised his eyebrows and smiled: "One is an action movie that I write a story specifically for you, and the cost is not high... Hehe, too much investment may be a little difficult for you temporarily. And the other is a A sci-fi movie, big investment, big production, but you must co-direct with another director."

"Science fiction? Co-directed? Who?"

He didn't care about the first choice. After hearing the latter sentence, Wei Xiaolin frowned immediately. However, it was just a momentary effort, and Wei Xiaolin's eyes flashed a glint: "You don't mean that great director Chen Cheng? Are you really going to cooperate with him?"

The gossip about the cooperation between Chen Cheng and Lao Bai had been flying in the sky a long time ago.

Especially after the summer vacation "Eyes of Heaven" went viral, Sun Peng and Chen Cheng ate a meal in private, and later met twice. This kind of thing cannot be hidden from the pervasive reporters. And in their brainstorming "speculation", the key is that the two of them want to collaborate on a new movie-this news has caused quite a stir among science fiction fans. Some people look forward to Lao Bai's script, while others think of him. I have never written anything about science fiction, so I am not very optimistic.

Of course Wei Xiaolin had also heard of this news, so he guessed Sun Peng's thoughts at once.

"Yes, it's Chen Cheng."

Regarding Wei Xiaolin, Sun Peng had nothing to hide, and nodded: "My plan is to work with Americans. You and Wei Xiaolin will co-direct the lead role... At present, only one heroine has been identified, that is my cousin Lin Lin!"

"..."

Looking at Sun Peng with a smile on his face, Wei Xiaolin was also speechless.

This guy really spared no effort in order to promote his cousin to the top. But this kind of thing is not surprising in the entertainment industry, and Lin Lin's acting skills are still decent now, not to mention her looks and body are not picky, so Wei Xiaolin didn't care, and continued to ask: "Has the movie script been written? What is the approximate amount of investment? Has the US agreed to it? How big is the funding gap now?"

Wei Xiaolin was very concerned about a series of problems.

"There is a script, the investment is 80 million to 100 million... U.S. dollars!"

After thinking for a while, Sun Peng took a deep breath and said, "In addition, the American side is talking, and the success rate is more than 80%! Don't worry about the funding gap. Anyway, I promised you that I will make up for the shortfall!"

Sun Peng has quite a lot of confidence in The Matrix, so no matter what the final result is, it’s okay to let him spend the money to smash the movie out-of course it’s best to cooperate or cooperate, after all, this movie It wasn't the Dragon Gate or the killing of Bill, they couldn't do it alone.

Hearing what Sun Peng said, Wei Xiaolin suddenly felt relieved.

As one of Lao Bai’s closest comrades-in-arms, Wei Xiaolin knows exactly how much money the guy in front of him has made this year. The odds and ends of the money, such as writing songs for the basketball court, don’t need to say anything about writing songs for "Eye of Heaven" Yes, just the dividends from a few movie scripts, the royalties from novels, or the dividends from "Spirited Away: The Hidden Spirit" may be enough to invest in this movie by just picking up a part.

So for him, the key is how to choose?

Is it an independent directing or co-directing a super production?

That's right, in Wei Xiaolin's view, a science fiction film with an investment of nearly 100 million US dollars is a proper super production! You know, the huge costumes he used to be the deputy director, some of which claimed to be one billion Chinese coins, the actual investment is only five or six billion, and more than one billion is added to the publicity costs!

So now, with mixed thoughts in his mind, Wei Xiaolin began to feel a little bit of trouble.

For a director, independent directing is of course the best choice, especially for Wei Xiaolin. But he also knew that with his current ability, Sun Peng would definitely not invest too much in his new movie. A few tens of millions would be the same, and he would not dare to take it if there were more. But looking at the conditions for co-directing with Chen Cheng, Wei Xiaolin had to admit that he was really tempted!

Super production, even co-directing is a solid qualification!

But when Wei Xiaolin was tangled in his heart, Sun Peng patted him on the shoulder and said: "Come on, you will slowly consider this matter, anyway, you have to talk to them slowly... The first trailer for "Kill Bill" is done! I always think it's boring to take some great shots like this. What if we just pick out a piece?"

"Extract a paragraph, what do you mean?"

Wei Xiaolin asked subconsciously if his thoughts could not be earned back for a while.

"I mean, take out a wonderful section!"

After blinking his eyes, Sun Peng said happily: "For example, the section where Fujiwara brought a group of men into the restaurant, don't you think it is very interesting? How about taking it out directly?"

"Uh... you mean highlighting that song?"

This time, Wei Xiaolin finally understood what Sun Peng meant, and then asked somewhat dumbfounded.

Of course he knew that this piece of music was great, and the shots taken by Sun Peng really felt very good, otherwise he would not be selected as the background music of the trailer! And as the deputy director, Wei Xiaolin himself has watched this episode countless times, just to know what Sun Peng thought at the time.

but……

No matter how exciting, he can't make a trailer!

"Yeah, can't it?"

"This... doesn't seem to be suitable, right?"

After twitching the corners of his mouth for a few times, Wei Xiaolin smiled bitterly: "In the trailer, don't you take out the most exciting shots in the film and use them to attract the attention of the audience? You... just tens of seconds. I can't even listen to this tune. Does it make sense?"

In order to strengthen his tone, Wei Xiaolin even waved his hand vigorously!

However, in the blink of an eye, he persuaded with all his heart: "Xiao Peng, for any movie, the trailer is very important. Can we think about it a little bit? The movie is finally done, and it’s wonderful. There are so many shots..."

"Alright, alright, I see."

Rolling his eyes, Sun Peng said angrily, "You're right! But I still think this paragraph is very classic, so other places can be left alone, but how about using this in the beginning?"

"……Ok."

After thinking about it, Wei Xiaolin felt that it had little effect, and nodded and said, "Then use this lens at the beginning, and we will adjust it later..."
