The reborn manotaku

Second, young people are more happy, and

second, literary youth are more likely to do stupid things.

When Li Huai rushed to the hospital, several people from the screenwriting team were gathering in the ward.

Zhang Yiming, a young man in a hutong in Beijing, was in a plaster cast on his right foot, and several others looked haggard, while the fat man Han Peng lay round on the hospital bed, humming like a pig waiting to be slaughtered.

“I said what are you doing?”

Li Huai was a little speechless, “As far as you five bodies are not diligent, the lord with weak limbs, what frontier do you run when you have nothing to learn?”

“To him, to him!” The

fat man who was originally like a dead man sat up all of a sudden, and said emotionally: “If you want to say that this script can’t work again, let’s completely break off diplomatic relations, and I won’t be used to you capitalists.”

Although he said it ruthlessly, his round face was full of arrogance.

Yang Hao took out a stack of manuscripts from his satchel with a solemn expression, “I kind of regret taking them, but fortunately nothing major happened.”

Li Huai took the manuscript, the ballpoint pen handwriting, it seems that before he had time to print, the fat man’s beautiful little block that seriously did not match the image was particularly neat.

Li Huai glanced at Yang Hao, and the few openings in his lips were still scabs, and his eyes were bloodshot.

This gang of two goods… It seems that it is really stimulated…

Li Huai’s expression also became solemn, found a chair to sit down, and looked at it seriously…

Script name: “Long Sky”

The beginning is very common, it is the setting of two double protagonists, and the respective backgrounds are introduced through the situation.

Lao Cai is a reporter for a TV station in Beijing, over 40 years old and has not mixed up any fame, his wife is suspected of having an affair, his son is rebellious and fighting, coupled with various difficulties in his career, a bit of a mid-life crisis.

Xiao Lin is a newcomer who has just entered the TV station for a few days, has no big skills, does not look good, always wants to come out and always hit nails, can’t afford to buy a house and can’t afford to fall in love, living thieves are suffocated, and thieves are confused.

The two did not have any deep friendship, Xiao Lin looked down on Lao Cai, an old gang who was messing around, and Lao Cai felt that Xiao Lin was a little stupid, and his head would be pinched to death by the door sooner or later.

As everyone knows, both of them are jokes in other people’s lives.

There are several scenes that are particularly interesting, such as Lao Cai overhearing a colleague summarizing the performance of a woman’s cheating, pretending to be calm, and coming to a backhand smoking…

For example, Xiao Lin talked about all kinds of room price information in the office, but he did not dare to go even with the invitation to learn the wedding, hiding alone in a small rental house to eat instant noodles and play games, and telling his best classmates that he was talking about projects…

Li Huai was interested, and in the various cold and humorous ironies at the beginning, it reflected the confusion of many people in today’s society, which was interesting and material.

These guys… There is growth…

Then there’s the story twist.

In order to celebrate the National Day, the TV station hatched a plan to interview people from all walks of life and make a collection.

Some of them were going to the most difficult frontier, pumping around, pumping Lao Cai and Xiao Lin, and the two embarked on a journey like this.

In fact, it is a routine story: the protagonist who is in trouble in life changes his attitude to life because of certain people and things.

Many movies play like this.

From the crowded city to the deserted plateau, the replacement scene will trigger contradictions at the same time, showing the contradictory views of two generations, and some confusion of modern people about the rapid development of society.

In the first half, at least a qualified road comedy, if the whole story is of this level, Li Huai does not mind investing in it.

Find two good actors and run them, maybe the box office is not bad.

However, immediately after, the painting suddenly changed.

In films like this, many people will fictionalize characters and events to baptize the protagonist’s ideas.

And these guys are absolutely remarkable, all of them introduce real people and real things.

Tajiks, eagles on the Pamirs, visitors from icebergs, Caucasian people who have guarded the frontier for generations, simple and simple patriots.

Salbulak steppe, 173 boundary monuments, Old man Wei from Shandong, when he was young, he participated in the construction corps to reclaim the border, and gradually everyone left, only he stayed firmly and stubbornly, measured the border with his feet every day, raised the national flag alone, and stayed for 40 years…

Real people and real stories are touching.

Cleverly, they do not dogmatically render patriotic feelings, but only put the confusion of modern people and the persistence of faith in the wasteland, allowing the audience to feel for themselves.

And this ending…

Li Huai’s breathing was a little short, and he held the script tightly.

He looked at several young faces in the room, took a deep breath, and gave a thumbs up.

“This movie, I definitely want to come out!”

……

“Brother Liu, look at this script.”

When Li Huai came to the company, Liu Zheng had just returned from Ji Province and was counting some reports.

“Oh, it’s rare that you are so attentive.” Liu Zheng took the script with a smile, “I have to take a good look.”

After speaking, leaned back in the chair and flipped through it carefully.

Li Huai did not bother, but sat on the opposite sofa, closed his eyes and began to recall the entire script.

This script is very flattering, with some Hollywood story style, but it tells and reflects Chinese stories.

There is also the black humor at the beginning, which actually has a hint of the style of Ning Hao’s later works.

At this time, most of the movies on the domestic big screen are mainly Hong Kong Island films, several major directors in the mainland Zhang Guoshi made “Ambush on Ten Sides”, Kaige filmed “Wuji”, and Feng Xiaogang was making “No Thief in the World”, and deliberately created misunderstandings to make the audience associate with modern martial arts…

There are almost no films of the same type, and I don’t know if the current audience will accept it.

But since you come across a script you like, try it anyway.

It’s just that who should the director and actor find suitable…

On the other side, Liu Zheng, who was reading the script, first showed a smile at the corner of his mouth, and then the smile converged, his brows became tighter and tighter, and he couldn’t help but light a cigarette and continue to read.

The time passed by 1 minute and 1 second, Liu Zheng flipped back and forth twice, and in the blink of an eye it was more than an hour.

Finally, I finally put down the script and didn’t know what I was pondering.

“How?” Li Huai asked with a smile.

Liu Zheng did not answer, but asked: “Those things on the frontier behind are all true?” Or is it a fabrication?

Li Huai nodded, “It’s all real people.”

At this time, the Internet information is not yet developed, people’s attention to hot spots is very single, and some things are rarely known, it is not surprising.

Just like later when “Rally” came out, some people began to understand the story of Chang Menglan’s old man.

Liu Zheng smoked again, pursed his lips and said: “This movie should be filmed!”

Finally, he muttered, “I’ll find a way to contact the troops to see if I can provide some help.”

“That’s good.”

Li Huai said with a smile: “The main reason is that it is too difficult to shoot on the plateau, and with the help of troops, various risks can be reduced.”

“Who should be working on this movie?” Liu Zheng asked next.

Li Huai made a difficult mistake at this time, he thought about it, but he couldn’t find a suitable one.

Big directors can’t be invited at all, everyone has their own team and company, a bunch of people rushing to send money, a bunch of projects in hand, and the shooting plan may be lined up for several years.

Ning Hao’s style is not mature now.

Lao Cao prefers crime themes.

Don’t think about the most familiar old ginger, technically absolutely no problem, but people are immediately facing the lifting of the ban, and now they are preparing “The Sun Also Rises”.

And Li Huai is also a little stunned, his small company can’t withstand the toss.

Other directors are also unfamiliar, and the sixth generation is too personal and stylized…

Seeing that Li Huai was in trouble, Liu Zheng also shook his head, “In this way, I will take the script to a few people to see if there is a suitable person to recommend.”

Li Huai nodded, it seemed that it could only be so.

However, just a few days after the start of school, a phone call from Liu Zheng thundered him enough.

“What, Lao Jiang read the script to direct and act himself?!”

No way!

Li Huai hurried to the company.

Lao Jiang was sitting in Liu Zheng’s office, and after seeing him, he smiled, “Boy, I read this script.”

“Brother Jiang… Uncle Jiang!

Li Huai smiled bitterly, “This is a commercial comedy, very tacky, you better do something inscrutable, go to the three major film festivals to win a few awards, how spiritual.”

“Hey…”

Jiang Mo frowned, “How can I ponder that you have something in this word, how can it not sound right.”

“Don’t care about these boring things…” Li Huai waved his hand and patiently analyzed:

“Look, this old Cai is a middle-aged dick, the whole person is a wister, you domineering and exposed, is it appropriate?”

“Also, after our company sets the script, it basically can’t be changed, and we will shoot it this year, and you won’t be able to make a film until next year, right?”

Jiang Wen sneered with a black face, “Are you questioning my acting skills?

“Where there is…”

Li Huai quickly denied it, “Your acting skills are absolutely top-notch.”

“Wouldn’t that be enough…”

This guy suddenly changed his face and smiled, “It’s no problem to be the star, as for the director, you can get it, I’ll assist from the side.”

“And here comes this set…”
