Entertainment From Divorce
Chapter 973 Crafting the Script
USA.
Columbia Entertainment, Inc., President's Office.
As the president of the company, Robin Donahue is very busy every day and is currently sitting in front of the computer processing the company's documents.
Wearing a formal suit and combing his hair shiny, this is what he requires of himself. Whether he is working in the company or attending an event, he basically wears a suit and leather shoes.
Columbia Entertainment has a history of twenty years, and Robin Donahue, now forty-nine years old, has been president for seven years.
During the seven years he took over the management of the company, Columbia Entertainment had grown steadily and was soon becoming a second-tier international entertainment company.
Robin Donahue's goal is to develop the company into a world-class entertainment company, so he has been making various attempts in the film industry and invested a lot of energy and time in this aspect.
He is a person with strong execution ability and is very confident in completing the goals he has set.
‘Dong-dong-dong, dong-dong-dong. ’
"Come in." Robin Donahue put down his work.
"President, Director Russ sent us the footage of "Black Fire". Please take a look."
Robin Donahue took the tablet from his secretary and watched it carefully.
This is his request to the director of "Black Fire". He must send a shooting clip every day so that he can always understand the progress of the film's shooting.
The movie "Black Fire" was possible because of Robin Donahue's work.
"The Truman Show" and "Forrest Gump" made Tan Yue's name known to more and more people in the foreign entertainment industry. Because he was a Chinese director, he didn't know much about Tan Yue, so he started to look it up online. I checked the relevant information about Tan Yue.
As the saying goes, you won’t know if you don’t check, but you will be shocked if you check.
Tan Yue's achievements in the film industry make him, a CEO who has been working for many years, sigh. He wants to guarantee the box office results of every film, which is not something that any director can do casually.
Robin Donahue obtained all of Tan Yue's previous films through friends in China.
There are cultural differences. Among all the movies, the one he admires the most is "Infernal Affairs", and it was the kind of movie that left him unable to calm down for a long time after watching it.
This kind of movie is his favorite type of movie.
To be precise, what he likes is gangster movies. Later, with the development of the times, gangster movies changed their name to police and gangster movies.
Robin Donahue didn't expect that a Chinese could make a police movie so well, so he came up with the idea of "Infernal Affairs".
At the beginning, he also thought about purchasing the copyright of "Infernal Affairs" to remake it, but he thought that the other party was just an entertainment company in China and did not know much in the international entertainment circle. Moreover, the movie "Infernal Affairs" only had The Chinese know that with their own changes, not all of it has been plagiarized. For them, the audience, it is a brand new movie.
Hence Black Fire.
He summoned several screenwriters who were among the best in the company in terms of screenwriting ability and personally participated in creating the script of the movie.
After watching the video on the tablet, Robin Donahue frowned. Today's shooting did not achieve the desired effect.
Compared with "Infernal Affairs", the level of excitement is much worse.
Robin Donahue picked up the mobile phone beside him and dialed the director of "Black Fire".
The phone beeped twice and was connected.
"The clip you sent today is not very effective. Let's discuss it with the screenwriters to see how to adjust it."
In order to make this movie a success, Robin Donahue specifically asked the screenwriter to wait on set to deal with problems at any time.
"Okay, I'm going to have a meeting now to adjust the shooting content."
Robin Donahue reminded: "Remember to watch "Infernal Affairs" a few more times to learn how this movie tells the story. The crew's configuration is so much higher than that of the Chinese company. If the filming is not good, , don’t blame me.”
"Yes, yes." Director Ruth's voice was trembling.
Robin Donahue put down the phone and looked out the window, with a look of thought on his face, and thought to himself: Although you filmed it first, it must be "Black Fire" that became popular all over the world.
He firmly believes that as long as "Black Fire" becomes a hit, no one will care about plagiarism. Besides, many plot elements have been changed, so strictly speaking, it is not considered plagiarism.
Beijing.
Bright Entertainment Company, President's Office.
After Chen Ye took the document, Tan Yue didn't take a break and quickly took out the biography and started writing it.
The biographies of several main characters can be completed today, and the remaining characters can be added slowly. There is no need to set aside time to write biographies like now.
He went through the plot of the movie over and over again in his mind, hoping that he would not miss anything when writing the biographies of the characters.
After writing for more than an hour and making sure that there were no mistakes in what he wrote, Tan Yue got up and poured himself a glass of water.
I stood on the balcony with a glass of water and took a short rest, and then started writing biographies non-stop.
Not long after, Chen Ziyu came in carrying cut fruits.
"Tzuyu, please wait for me for a few minutes while I finish writing this place."
Chen Ziyu said "hmm" and sat on the sofa to taste the fruit.
It is still necessary to eat more fruits in summer. During this period, she bought some online every now and then.
After Tan Yue finished writing the introduction of a character, he did not continue writing. He stood up and sat next to Chen Ziyu, picked up a piece of dragon fruit and tasted it.
"What are you busy with? Work?"
Tan Yue explained: "Do you still remember the new movie I mentioned to you? I am currently writing a biography."
Chen Ziyu picked up a piece of small apple and put it into Tan Yue's mouth: "No wonder he is so busy."
She didn't think it was strange that the new movie was progressing so fast. It was like this every time anyway and she was already used to it.
"I'm always so busy that I don't know how to rest." Chen Ziyu pretended to be angry, but she felt helpless in her heart.
Compared to the past, she felt that Tan Yue was extra busy this time.
After usually finishing his busy work, Tan Yue would go shopping and sit down for a cup of tea. After getting home in the evening, he would also sit in the study for some time. What made Chen Ziyu even more distressed was that Tan Yue canceled his lunch break to use it to write scripts.
"More than ten minutes before you came in, I had already rested on the balcony." Tan Yue smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, I'm not stupid. As long as I'm tired, I will definitely take a rest even if you don't tell me. of."
"Come on, open your mouth and taste this dragon fruit."
Seeing Tan Yue's feeding, Chen Ziyu nodded. After finishing chewing, he asked: "Why do I feel that you are particularly busy writing the script this time?"
"Is there any?" Tan Yue felt that it was better not to tell Chen Ziyu about "Black Fire" for the time being. It was enough for him to worry about this kind of thing alone.
Chen Ziyu nodded and said "Yeah".
"You know that script writing is very important about an inspiration. This time I feel very good, so I should seize the time and write it out quickly. If I forget it, I will lose a lot."
"But."
Tan Yue interrupted: "I promise that I will take time to rest in the future."
"Okay." Chen Ziyu had no choice but to give up and did not continue to ask further questions.
The two chatted for a while, and Chen Ziyu's secretary came in: "Mr. Chen, the video conference will start in ten minutes. Some adjustments have been made to the meeting content. Please take a look."
"Send it to my office."
Tan Yue was still busy with the script, and Chen Ziyu didn't want to waste his time too much.
"OK."
"The meeting is about to start, I'll go and prepare first."
"Get to work quickly."
Chen Ziyu walked to the door, suddenly turned his head and warned: "Don't forget to eat the fruit."
Tan Yue returned to the computer with the fruit and continued writing biographies.
After writing a character, Tan Yue opened the script file and started thinking about it.
It is definitely not possible to film according to the original version of "The Godfather". Some content needs to be modified and translated into Chinese. Just like "The Truman Show" and "Forrest Gump", the most important thing is the identity of the protagonist.
If it were shot according to the original version, there would definitely be netizens who would come up with complaints.
Tan Yue first sorted out the plot, thought about it seriously, and decided to make the protagonist an immigrant.
This way, other parts of the movie only need to be slightly modified, rather than having to make major changes.
It is better if the movie is original. If there are too many modifications, it is better not to film it.
After making this decision, Tan Yue recorded some things in another document for easy use when writing the script.
Now that we have the story, we need to think about the actors.
The leading actor Mike Corleone is also a candidate for the new generation of godfather. Tan Yue’s first thought was Ma Guoliang.
Of course, there is nothing to say about his acting skills. It is recognized by everyone that he is "superb". No matter what occasion he attends, he has to be called "Teacher Ma" by everyone.
In addition, after experiencing "The Truman Show" and "Forrest Gump", Ma Guoliang is now somewhat famous abroad, which is more helpful for the promotion of the movie.
It can be said that Ma Guoliang's status in the industry has reached a new level. He can become popular in the world atmosphere, which few domestic stars can do.
Of course, the age is also more appropriate.
When making a movie, Tan Yue still hopes that the actors can fit in with the characters in the play as much as possible and interpret the characters more well.
Although Ma Guoliang's appearance is not very good, movies like "The Godfather" mainly interpret the character's personality charm. Mike Corleone went from being a person who didn't care about family affairs to becoming the boss in the end, which required the actor's inner charm. Tan Yue still has great confidence in him in this regard.
He played Chen Yongren in "Infernal Affairs".
Tan Yue is thinking about giving Ma Guoliang a makeover in terms of appearance, so as to give the audience a refreshing feeling when the movie is released.
The two movies, especially "Forrest Gump", which ranked first at the box office at the time, will definitely leave a deep impression on the audience.
A change is still necessary in the movie "The Godfather".
This can be regarded as letting audiences around the world know Ma Guoliang's plasticity and what he looks like in any role.
After many considerations, Tan Yue decided to let Ma Guoliang play Mike Corleone in the movie.
Then there is another important role, which is also the protagonist's role, the older generation godfather Vito Corleone, who is also the father of Mike Corleone.
At this time, Tan Yue was in trouble.
Needless to say, the charm of Vito Corleone is even more obvious. He fled to the United States when he was a boy and founded the Mafia Empire with his own hands. As the boss of the underworld, he needs a certain temperament.
When selecting actors, you need the actors themselves to have a stance, preferably one that is respectful and can make people feel scared inside.
But at the same time, the whole person must have the kind of aura that is not angry and self-defeating.
Tan Yue rubbed his temples, thinking about suitable candidates.
It's really hard to choose an actor who has excellent acting skills and aura.
After thinking for a few minutes, Tan Yue decided to give up for the time being and wait until the script is written later to consider the matter carefully.
Writing a script is also a process of understanding the character. If you think about it more, the actor you want may appear in your mind.
The most important task at the moment is to seize the time to complete the script and character biographies, and start the next task as soon as possible.
If the script comes out one day late, the filming will be postponed by one day. The filming of "Black Fire" is already in the advanced stage, and it may be completed and released when.
Tan Yue picked up the cup and took a sip of water, ready to start writing the script.
At this time there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
"Mr. Tan." Chen Ye came in and said, "This is a document sent by the new media department. Please take a look."
Tan Yue opened the file, and the content was exactly the large-scale live broadcast event planned by the new media department.
The time is set for next month, Saturday and Sunday, and the live broadcast content highlights a feature of "integration".
If you want to attract traffic to other anchors in the company, it is difficult to attract fans without some skills.
In terms of skills, the company has customized the skills according to the personal conditions of more than ten anchors. It is hoped that through this event, several more great anchors can be cultivated.
Although they are all in the same company, it is not easy to organize such an event, so the new media department also pays special attention to it.
Tan Yue looked at each item carefully, then took out a pen from the pen holder and began to make some modifications on it.
The main thing is to mark out some unreasonable places.
Especially when it comes to talent, "whole job" is indispensable, but you still have to have real skills, that is, what you rely on to attract fans.
There are more than 20 plans in one plan, and every process is very detailed.
After more than ten minutes, Tan Yue put down his pen and said: "Xiaoye, send the plan back to the new media department. I have marked the areas that need to be modified. Tell them to discuss these areas carefully. If it cannot be resolved, If so, come directly to me."
"In addition, I asked them to directly contact the public relations department regarding the publicity of this event. Once the specific implementation plan is available, they will be sent to me."
"OK."
Chen Ye took the document with both hands, closed the door and left, taking the elevator to the new media department.
