Chapter 122: Those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black

Chapter 122: Those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black
What Ning Hao submitted was also a script, a script that had never appeared in his previous life.

It mainly tells the story of a group of people of different identities who were trapped in a gas station near a scenic spot due to heavy snow, and a series of conflicts and contradictions that arose from this.

It can be seen that Ning Hao really likes multi-line narrative, and the same is true for this script.

A gas station employee, a family of three on vacation, a couple traveling on a budget, a bankrupt boss who was hiding from debt, two brothers who had committed a crime in their hometown and were trying to make a living...

A group of people with different identities and backgrounds and different life experiences spent a day and a night at this gas station...

Because of Lin Yicheng, Ning Hao does not know Yue Xiaojun at the moment.

This script was written entirely independently by Ning Hao, but from Lin Yicheng's perspective, it was very rough and had many loopholes.

But this is normal, Ning Hao is not a screenwriter. In his previous life, most of his works were based on him providing a general idea, and then professional screenwriters such as Yue Xiaojun would perfect and polish the script.

……

In the circle, it is extremely rare to find someone like Lin Yicheng who can direct, write and act in his own films.

Among the subjects in art schools, directing is basically the most difficult to learn because there are too many things to master or understand.

You need to understand photography, this is the basics.

You need to understand editing, the director is the center, and you have the final editing rights.

You may not be able to act yourself, but you can train actors and at least be able to express your ideas accurately.

In addition to these, you also need to have some understanding of lighting, props, recording, etc. Otherwise, you won’t be able to build the blueprint in your mind, and you may be fooled by other people in the crew.

In this case, it is really too much to ask the director to also be a screenwriter.

Of course, this was the case before and is the case now.

In a few years, directors will just shout “Action” and “Cut”, and everything else will be unimportant and unnecessary.

……

Lin Yicheng put the script aside and lit a cigarette.

This script does have some highlights, but it is not mature enough and its prospects are unclear. To Lin Yicheng, it is almost useless.

Instead of investing in such a project, it would be better to let Ning Hao shoot a successful and promising script, such as "Lost on Journey".

It's fair to take away his "Crazy Stone" and give him "Lost on Journey".

However, this depends on Ning Hao's own ideas. If he insists on filming his script, then forget it.

After making up his mind, Lin Yicheng asked Li Yuefang to come in, take the two scripts to find Zhou Chenggong, and convey Lin Yicheng's request.

If these two films go smoothly, Galaxy Pictures will have enough film projects this year.

……

What is lacking now is a TV series, so what else is there to say, summon Liu Kang!

After a while, Liu Kang knocked on the door and walked in.

Liu Mingjun is not in the company. He is negotiating the second and third round copyrights of "Snow Leopard" with some TV stations.

"Director Lin, do you have another script?" Liu Kang asked.

Since cooperating with Xinghe Film and Television Company and joining the company, Liu Kang's life can be described as a mixture of pain and happiness.

There are good scripts to shoot, funds in place, respect for the director, strong publicity, it can be sold after filming, and it will perform well when broadcast, with good benefits and high bonuses...

Liu Chang had never encountered such a thing before, and he had hardly heard of it. For a director, this was simply the most ideal company and boss. However, Liu Chang was somewhat helpless.

After finishing "The Good Times of Wife", the next one is "Snow Leopard". After finishing filming "Snow Leopard", I have another project today.

Yes, I am a worker, but workers also need to rest.

Even the donkeys in the production team can’t be used like this!
"Old Liu, you are aware of the company's current situation. The TV department is now relying on you."

Lin Yicheng pushed Liu Kang to sit on the sofa, lit a cigarette for him personally, and said sincerely: "I don't trust anyone else except you, so I have to trouble you."

"To be honest, it's difficult for me too. After the mess with Dongyang Qingyu, not only did our peers become wary of our company and refuse to cooperate with us. Even those directors were closely watched by their respective companies, fearing that they would be poached by us."

"I am now like Liu Bang who was surrounded in Baideng. I need you, the invincible Zhao Zilong, to lead me in and out seven times. Let's fight our way out of the encirclement together and create a glorious Tang Dynasty again!"

Liu Bang? Zhao Zilong? Tang Dynasty? These don't seem to be related! For a moment, Liu Kang was a little confused, and he forgot to take a puff of the cigarette in his mouth.

"Here, here's the script. The male lead is still Huang Haibo, and you can choose whoever you want as the female lead and the supporting actress."

Lin Yicheng handed the script to Liu Kang and gave him a look that every man could understand.

……

Liu Kang walked out of Lin Yicheng's office in a daze, still thinking about the relationship between Liu Bang, Zhao Zilong and the Tang Dynasty.

Director Lin is a writer by profession, so he would definitely not make such a low-level historical mistake. So what is his intention in saying this?

Director Lin is definitely referring to Liu Bang, who was Emperor Gaozu of Han who founded the Han Dynasty, which lasted for 400 years. Director Lin is using the past to illustrate the present, to express his ambition, and to create a great cause.

Zhao Zilong was talking about himself. Director Lin hoped that he would work hard and become a victorious general, and in the future he would be one of the company's Five Tiger Generals and a hero!

No, what about the Tang Dynasty? What does the glorious Tang Dynasty mean?
It was not until he arrived at his office that Liu Kang came to his senses and could not help but smile bitterly.

Lin Yicheng was just making it up, but he took it seriously.

This time I feel like I've been fooled, but the script is in my hands, so how can I refuse?
Liu Kang is an emotional person. Although he was a little famous at the beginning, there were many people in the circle who were as famous as him or even more famous than him.

It is precisely because of Lin Yicheng's trust in his employees that he has achieved his current success and fame.

He would not go so far as to die for his friend, but he could still do his job conscientiously and live up to Lin Yicheng's trust.

Thinking of this, Liu Kang lowered his head and began to read the script. The name alone attracted him - "The Unforgettable Number".

This watching lasted for more than half an hour. Liu Kang raised his head and twisted his sore neck.

Good script, good story, must be filmed!
……

Liu Kang was a little excited. As expected, what Director Lin took out was different!
Suddenly, Liu Kang thought of what Lin Yicheng had said just now. It seemed, probably, possibly, that Director Lin asked him to decide on the cast of the actresses?
This……

This is really great!

Liu Gang roughly counted and found that there were three most critical female characters. If he had to decide for them all, how should he allocate his time?
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and rest on Sunday?

No, Liu Kang, oh Liu Kang, how could you do this? It's so depraved!
How is this different from those directors you used to despise and look down upon?

At most, allocate it to one, three, and five days, and use the rest of the time for work.

After convincing himself, Liu Qiang felt that he had indeed made progress. As expected, following a good boss will have an impact on you.

This is what is called "birds of a feather flock together." No, it should be "birds of a feather flock together."
