Entertainment: You Don't Want To Be A Big Brother, But A Director?

Chapter 84: The script of a literary film? Farewell My Concubine? Former members of the club, and some who can sing? 【Kneeling to subscribe!】

After finishing some things related to the movie.

Su Chen also returned home, ready to rest.

after returning home.

Su Chen opened the system panel, and as expected, a prompt sound came from the system.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the task and getting the reward. You can choose a script of a literary film!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for getting a random draw!"

Su Chen couldn't help being a little excited by the two prompts in succession.

Unexpectedly, there were two more rewards.

"Draw. 27

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for winning the lottery and getting a master-level makeup technique!"

Su Chen nodded in satisfaction.

The makeup skills provided by the system do not refer to girls' makeup.

It's the art that can really change a person's visual appearance!

Su Chen couldn't help but think of some classic movie characters in his previous life.

Like the Joker in Batman.

Originally wanted to create the makeup of a clown, but Su Chen definitely couldn't do it.

You also need to pay for a professional makeup artist.

But now with this skill, Su Chen can make a clown by himself!

And it will work better than the average makeup artist!

As for the other reward, it made Su Chen a little confused.

"An optional literary film script?"

Su Chen watched many literary films in his previous life.

For example, "The Piano of the Steel" and "Red Sorghum", these are all quite good.

But literary films all have a problem.

That is, no matter how many awards and praises you get, it will not change the fact.

The box office is too low!

That's right, the box office of literary and artistic films is generally not high!

Even for a film like "The Piano", which has won dozens of top film awards, the box office is only five million. "One Sixty"

It goes without saying how powerful this movie is.

Lian Longguo, the most prestigious Longguo Film Awards, named it the best director award!

But it just happened to be such an awesome movie.

The box office is only five million.

It can be seen from this that the box office of literary and artistic films is so hip.

Su Chen couldn't help thinking.

"I make movies just to make money, and now the entire literary film chooses its own script, which is a bit too much.

Su Chen never felt how noble he was, he considered himself a layman.

The purpose of making a movie is also very simple.

Just make money!

Make a lot of money!

Once you get the money, enjoy it!

Isn't it embarrassing for him to make literary films now?

At this moment, he suddenly thought of a movie.

Indeed, the box office of literary and artistic films is not very high.

But one movie is an exception!

This movie exploded in word-of-mouth in previous lives.

Even today, twenty or thirty years later, it is still well received.

Its director is a gold medal director who has won numerous awards, Director Chen!

Its actors are known as the outstanding actors of the Dragon Kingdom for a hundred years, big brother!

This movie is "Farewell My Concubine"!

The box office of literary films is generally not high.

But "Farewell My Concubine" has reached a box office of 30 million US dollars!

The box office of 30 million U.S. dollars in that era, converted to the current box office, is 3 billion dragons.

And don't forget.

At that time, the Dragon Kingdom was not developed enough.

The per capita income is very low, and watching movies is a luxury for many people.

But now it's different.

Who can afford to pay tens of dollars to watch a movie?

If "Farewell My Concubine" is played today, the box office will only be higher!

Thinking of this, Su Chen did not neglect.

Quickly open the reward.

Sure enough, he saw four words in the optional script.

"Farewell My Concubine"!

Without even thinking about it, he directly chose to redeem the script.

Then, a huge flood of memories flooded into Su Chen's mind.

After a while, he arrived at the complete script of "Farewell My Concubine".

And the considerate system also comes with two gifts.

One of them is the famous Peking Opera "Farewell My Concubine".

And the other is advanced drama ability.

have to say.

This Gou system is quite humane.

Comes with two freebies, which are very helpful for shooting movies.

Su Chen didn't waste time, went to the computer and began to write the movie script.

In his previous life, he was a big brother fan.

Now being able to shoot "Farewell My Concubine" is also a tribute to idols, right?

Su Chen was thinking wildly.

Started to get busy.

Over the next few days.

Su Chen finally finished the script.

"It's okay to talk about venue props, money can..."

"But in terms of actors, it's a bit difficult to deal with."

Think of the gang of brothers under him.

Even though they have been with me for so long, the acting skills of the brothers have also improved a lot.

But it was still a little difficult for them to play "Farewell My Concubine".

At most, they can play some important supporting roles or just play tricks!

As for the protagonist, it's a bit of a hassle.

Especially several important protagonists, Cheng Dieyi, Juxian, Duan Xiaolou and so on.

"Cheng Dieyi can be played by me, but supporting roles like Duan Xiaolou are really difficult."

Regarding venue props, Su Chen threw them directly to Shen Qingqing and asked her to help with them.

As for himself, he intends to solve the actor problem.

Early the next morning.

Su Chen came to the company and called all the brothers over.

First, I showed the simplified version of the script to everyone.

Wait for everyone to read.

For a moment, the brothers were a little surprised.

"Damn, "Farewell My Concubine"? What kind of movie is this, a drama?"

"You don't understand this, there are no dramas in the movie category, logically speaking, this should be a literary film.

"So we are going to make a literary film? How can a group of big bastards make a literary film? It's a bit difficult!"

"It's okay, I recognize Director Su's strength "He will definitely be able to draw well."

"Director Su is capable, but we don't know much about literary films, are you sure we can do this movie well?"

Everyone was discussing and full of doubts.

But it wasn't Su Chen who questioned.

After all, in the previous few films, Su Chen has proved his strength.

The point that everyone doubts is, is this movie sure to be made well?

No wonder they think so.

These guys are a bunch of big bastards!

Let them make a literary film, the difficulty is really not small!

Let's talk about Su Chen.

After everyone has read the simplified version of the script.

Then he opened his mouth and said, "Who among you knows opera, especially Peking opera?"

"Cheng Dieyi, the protagonist of the movie, I'm the only one to take on the role, but there are a few other roles, it's best to let someone who understands opera play."

"As for the rest of you, just play an important supporting role or play a secondary role."

Hearing what Su Chen said, everyone began to think about it.

Do you know more about drama?

Except for the elderly, who would like this thing?

All of them shook their heads.

Sun Jian took the lead and said, "Brother, we really don't understand this."

When the others heard the words, they echoed one after another.

Su Chen was helpless.

Why is there no one who fits this shit?

In the movie, roles such as Yuan Siye, Master Guan, and the owner of the theater all require a certain understanding of Peking Opera to be able to act.

Especially the group performances in the theater.

The ensemble performances in other places are not bad, it is easy to perform well.

But the ensemble performers in the theater sometimes even go up to sing.

This makes it more difficult.

Just when Su Chen was in trouble.

Uncle Wang, who had been silent all this time, spoke up.

"Director Su, I do know someone, and it's absolutely suitable for him to come!"

"And he also has a troupe under him, it seems to be called Linhai City Yixing Drama Troupe."

"Although he quit the society a few years ago, Boss Su was kind to him back then. If you went to find him, he would definitely be willing to come out to help!"

Hearing this, Su Chen immediately beamed with joy!

Has the society ever had such a role?

But think about it too.

When the association washed its hands of gold, although many loyal brothers stayed behind.

But some of the older ones chose to retire.

Roughly count.

The first person to hang out with Su's father is now in his sixties or seventies because of his age.

It's normal for them to retire, because people always have to retire when they get old.

"Who is this person, please introduce to me quickly."

Su Chen also took over the association some time ago, and he didn't know some old people well, so he asked.

"His surname is Lei. Mr. Lei was already in his thirties when he was with Boss Su. Like me, he was the first person to hang out with Boss Su. He should be in his sixties now."

Uncle Wang began to introduce Su Chen in detail.

Mr. Lei's full name is Lei Jiahua.

When I was young, I studied drama, but later I felt that I didn't have enough money, so I went to hang out with Su's father.

After retiring a few years ago, he used the savings accumulated over the years to set up a Yixing repertory theater troupe.

After getting a general understanding of Mr. Lei's experience.

Su Chen slapped his thigh.

study drama!

Still old!

It is absolutely suitable for him to play the role of Fourth Master Yuan in the movie!

Moreover, those who have studied drama have a certain foundation in acting, and they can act well in movies without too much guidance.

"Uncle Wang, where does Mr. Lei live, I'll go to him to discuss it......

Uncle Wang gave the address to Su Chen.

After getting the address, Su Chen had no time.

Driving the car, I was going to find Mr. Lei.

Two hours later.

Su Chen brought Sun Jian and Li Shuai to an ordinary residential building.

There is also a reason for bringing people along.

First of all, he is also the leader of the club, so it would be embarrassing for him to travel without a few younger brothers.

The second is that if you encounter paparazzi reporters, you can use them as a shield.

Follow the address.

Su Chen came to the eighth floor and knocked on the door of Room 801.

bang bang bang!

"Who is it?"

There was a shout from inside the door.

Although the voice is old, it is full of energy, as expected of someone who has studied opera!

After a while, the door was opened.

When the door opened, Mr. Lei was terrified.

Why do you say that?

think about it.

You see two vicious men standing outside your house, and there is a character with a deadpan expressionless face in between, are you afraid?

But be afraid.

At any rate, Mr. Lei had been in a gangster club when he was young.

Pretending to be calm, he asked, "What are you doing?"

"Is it wrong, I don't know

know you. "

With that said, close the door.

Seeing that he was about to close the door, Sun Jian hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, and then politely said with a friendly smile: "Mr. Lei, we are here to visit you, can we go in and have a chat?"

?"

Sun Jian thought that his smile was kind and friendly.

but......

As for his face, which has been in prison for ten years, no matter how friendly the smile is, it is still a threatening smile in the eyes of others.

This is not.

He smiled, but it made Mr. Lei tremble with fright.

I can't wait to close the door and call the police.

But Mr. Lei's strength as an old man, how can he compare with Sun Jian?

The two sides stood in front of the door, deadlocked.

Su Chen also said with a smile at this time: "Master Lei, we have something important to ask you, please come in and have a chat?"

Compared to the other two vicious men.

This young man who has been extremely calm from beginning to end is what Mr. Lei is most afraid of.

He was a gangster in the early years.

Know who you can afford and who you can't.

Like the kind of vicious-looking ones, if they are provoked, they will be provoked, and at worst they will be beaten!

But this young man in front of him is the scariest thing.

Although I can't see anything from him, I even feel that he is quite good.

But Mr. Lei can clearly feel that this young man is threatening!

certainly.

The most important thing is that Su Chen looks like a big brother.

The other two looked so vicious, but they were still willing to be younger brothers to young people.

What does this mean?

It shows that this young man is definitely not as simple as it seems!

Mr. Lei knows very well that two fists are no match for four hands.

In addition, he is a 2.5 old man, if he really fights, maybe someone else will burp him with two punches.

Only then did he choose to give up and let the other party enter his house.

to the house.

Mr. Lei kept thinking while looking at the three of Su Chen.

"They don't look like troupe members, but they know my name..."

"My relatives are almost dead, and it is said that Boss Su has already washed his hands, so it is impossible to send someone to find me."

"So, there is only one possibility!"

"They are former enemies!"

Mr. Lei hacked quite a few people when he was young.

There are too many people to offend!

Hence, he also logically mistook Su Chen for some former enemy.

Serious person who goes out with two younger brothers?

If this shit isn't dark, what else could it be?

Thinking of this, I shuddered.

"Which enemy is this, the Jiang family? Or the Lin family?"

Mr. Lei kept thinking.

With old steps, he went to the kitchen and hid a knife in his body.

I thought to myself that when I came out to hang out, you were still wearing crotch pants, at worst, let's fight to the death!

Let's talk about Su Chen.

No one spoke after entering the room.

In the end, it was Su Chen who broke the silence.

"Mr. Lei, it's like this, I"

Before Su Chen finished speaking.

Seeing that Mr. Lei was too quick to cover his ears, Tao Xiaokou.

Aimed at Su Chen, then shouted loudly.

"I don't care if you are the enemies I offended before, but if you want revenge, come here!"

"But let's say it first, the rules of the world, the family is not as bad as the family!"

"My grandson who is studying opera in the opera troupe, you can't move!".
