Chapter 4 Finding Gus Van Sant
After Weinstein left, his mother looked at Liu Yuntian with surprised eyes and said, "Xiaotian, can you write a movie script? You asked your father to ask for 2 million just for this movie?"
"Yes, Mom. I had an idea for it a long time ago, and I wrote it out of boredom while I was in the hospital. It seems that my writing is not bad, and Mr. Weinstein is very optimistic about my script." Liu Yuntian
He shrugged and said to his mother in a relaxed manner, but it looked like he was expecting praise from others.
"My son is really smart. He already knows how to write scripts. You must tell your father this good news. He will be very happy." The mother said proudly unconsciously.
Liu Yuntian smiled and said nothing. When his father found out that night, he was also very happy and said he had a smart son.

"Where should I find Gus Van Sant? He shouldn't be very famous at this time." A few days have passed since meeting Weinstein, and Liu Yuntian is thinking about how to find the original director of Good Will Hunting.
Gus Van Sant was troubled.
In fact, Liu Yuntian is not planning to make a major change for "Good Will Hunting" because he feels that the original plot is a classic and its portrayal of people's hearts is unparalleled. Naturally, Liu Yuntian does not need to change the historical trajectory of the movie. So.
The plan is to still use the director of Good Will Hunting in his previous life, the only difference is that he will be the screenwriter and director.
Picking up the phone, Liu Yuntian called Harvey Weinstein.
"Dear Weinstein, can you help me find a director? I hope he can direct the movie Good Will Hunting with me."
"Dear Liu, which director do you want to find?" Harvey was still very curious about the director Liu Yuntian wanted to work with. He wanted to know which director Liu Yuntian had his eye on.
"I hope you can help me find Gus Van Sant. I have watched "The Cowherd" and "Unruly Skies" that he has written and directed. I believe that his directorial ability and style will definitely bring "Good Will Hunting" to the forefront.
"The spirit to be expressed is perfectly interpreted." Liu Yuntian said in a serious tone.
"Gus Van Sant? I haven't heard of him. He shouldn't be very famous. Well, I'll look for him and see if he has time to shoot."
"Well, thank you." Liu Yuntian thanked him.
"Liu, I have put all my hopes for you this year. Don't let me down." Harvey said half-jokingly and half-seriously. It was obvious that he was also under a lot of pressure.
"Don't worry, I will do a good job in it. I also hope that "Good Will Hunting" can make me money," Liu Yuntian said confidently.
.....................................
Gus Van Sant is a director who is not very famous in Hollywood. Although he has directed a few movies and received some praise, there is still no movie that can really make him famous in Hollywood, so he has always been in Hollywood.
He is considered a second-rate director and is not known to the public.
Today, Sante is still the same as before, constantly selecting some scripts, hoping to find a good script to shoot. But one morning passed, and it was still the same as before, all of them were unsightly works with no shooting value at all.
Just when he was frustrated and irritable, his phone rang, which had not rang for a long time.
"Oh, shit, don't you know I'm at work? Who the hell is calling this?" Sante cursed in a low voice and picked up the phone. It was a strange number he had never seen before.
"Who are you? How do you know my phone number?" Sante said in a bad tone.
"Hello Mr. Sante, my name is Yuntian Liu. I have a script here that I hope you can read. I really hope you can direct this work. I promise, this is an excellent work." There was a burst of calls on the phone.
A very young male voice that sounds like a child's voice...
Gus Van Sant was in a daze when he heard the words on the phone.
"This guy asked me to direct a movie? Why does it sound like a child's voice?" Sant thought in his mind.
"So sir, what kind of script is this?" Maybe it's because Liu Yuntian took the initiative to ask him for filming, or maybe it's been too long since no movie script came to him, so Sangta still asked nicely and said
No immediate hang-ups due to lack of reading the script or childlike voice.
Liu Yuntian is still very satisfied with Gus Van Sant's attitude, and his impression of him is developing in a good direction.
"Yes, Mr. Sant, I'm looking for you to be the director. This script is specifically about an inspiring story of a lonely mathematical genius who breaks the shackles of his soul and obtains friendship and love with the help of others. You can find some time to talk to me.
Can I meet you? I'll show you the script, what do you think?" Liu Yuntian said sincerely.
"Okay then, let's meet at the tea garden in Chinatown at three o'clock this afternoon."
Gus was different from most Westerners in that he liked to drink Eastern tea, so he directly named the teahouse he frequented and arranged to meet there in the afternoon.
"Chinatown Tea Garden? Okay, Mr. Sante, we'll see you in the afternoon."
.................................................................
At three o'clock in the afternoon, when Liu Yuntian came to the tea garden with the script, Sante had already arrived.
"Hello, dear Mr. Sante, I am Yuntian Liu who spoke to you at noon today." Liu Yuntian stepped forward, politely introduced himself and stretched out his hand to shake his hand.
"Oh, hello, Mr. Liu, you are really young. I had no idea that such a young person would ask me to cooperate." Sante said jokingly, surprised by Liu Yuntian's age.
"I can't help it. I am indeed a bit young. I hope Mr. Sant will not neglect his cooperation with me because of my young age." Liu Yuntian said with a smile, feeling helpless about his age.
"No, Mr. Liu is young and promising." Sante complimented.
Liu Yuntian smiled, without interfering, but handed over the script in his hand and said, "Mr. Sant, please take a look at my script first before we discuss it."
Sante didn't waste any time and took it directly to read it.
…………………………………………..
Will Hunting, who grew up in the slums of Boston's South Side, is a very smart but rebellious young man. In addition to cleaning the building at MIT, he spends his days drinking and picking up girls with his friends.
, a whole bunch of smart kids from Harvard.
When he is alone, he can read all kinds of new knowledge in the humanities and sciences at a glance. One day, he casually solved a mathematical problem left by Professor Lan Bo of the Department of Mathematics, which immediately aroused the surprise of teachers and students in the school.
After fighting and causing trouble with others and being sentenced to a juvenile detention center, Professor Lambert took great pains to bail him out and required him to participate in mathematics seminars and receive psychological counseling. Professor Lambert hoped that Will would value and develop his talents. If you are gifted, you will no longer play pranks, act foolishly, brag and waste your life.
However, Will didn't care at all and often played tricks on the psychologists who came to counsel and treat him.
Professor Lanbo had no choice but to turn to his college friend Sean, who had a love-hate relationship with him, to enlighten and save Will, whose future was in jeopardy.
With the belief that "trust is the key to breaking through defensiveness, we cannot be honest with each other if we don't trust each other" and the mentality of "not as a teacher but as a friend", Sean listened to Will's questions about knowledge and interpersonal interactions. , intellectual questions and emotional catharsis such as love exploration, life beliefs, and family hurts.
With the contact between the two, Sean gradually comforted Will's traumatized heart, helped him regain his trust in people, and plucked up the courage to express his love to his girlfriend...
At the same time, Sean, who has never forgotten the pain of losing his wife, is impacted by Will's reckless vitality in the process of wrestling and interacting with Will. He gradually opens up the heart that has been closed due to the loss of his wife, and re-finds his emotional destination.
…………………………………………
Seeing Sant's increasingly focused expression and his constant good words, Liu Yuntian knew that this script had impressed him.
When Sante finished reading the script, Liu Yuntian said, "Mr. Sante, my script is okay."
"Yes, this script is great. It will definitely be liked by many people. Are you sure you want me to shoot such a good script?" Sante said excitedly.
"Yes, Mr. Sant, I came here to film with you. To be precise, you and I filmed together. Together we made this excellent movie." Liu Yuntian looked at him and said.
"You and I are filming together? Do you know how to shoot movies? Do you have directing experience?" Sante asked in surprise, looking at Liu Yuntian's immature face.
"I haven't shot a movie yet, but I wrote this script, so I know how to shoot it better. Of course, you are still responsible for the main shooting. I mainly participated in part of the shooting, which can be regarded as learning. Liu Yuntian said in explanation.
"This is a script you wrote? Oh, God, you are so talented." Sante exclaimed after hearing that the script was written by Liu Yuntian.
"Thank you for your compliment. Do you have anything else to ask about the director of the movie? Do you think you are willing to direct this movie?"
"Yes, of course, I am willing to be the director, and I hope we can have a happy cooperation." Sant knew that this opportunity was rare, and it would be his own loss to let such a good script pass, so he did not worry about Liu Yuntian's decision. When it comes to directing, after all, being able to write such a script at such an age is not an ordinary person by any means. At most, I can direct some scenes by myself and there will be no problems.
Looking at the extended hand, Liu Yuntian laughed happily. He knew that he was a big step closer to success because he had found the director of the movie.
"It's a pleasure to cooperate," Liu Yuntian also extended his hand and said happily.
