"But...I don't plan to shoot now..." Lu Song said seriously.
Song Ci suddenly showed a disappointed expression.
Lu Song went on to explain: "Actually, if you hadn't written biographies of these masters and apprentices for me, I would have been more inclined to film them. But after I read their stories and understood the causes and consequences, I felt that "The Kingdom of Women" "Chapter of "Journey to the West" cannot be filmed so early. Especially it cannot be the first film in your entire "Journey to the West" series."
At this point, Song Ci probably understood: "Do you mean, or should "Havoc in Heaven" be filmed first in order?"
Lu Song nodded seriously: "This is the most profitable filming method. Unless you have this IP, you are only going to make one film. But I see that you are so serious about writing. This is not something that can be won by one or two films." .”
Lu Song's lips twisted into a smile.
Song Ci said: "What if we start filming "Havoc in Heaven" directly?"
Lu Song still shook his head: "Now we are limited by the special effects level of our domestic special effects film production... it is difficult to shoot. If you hire companies that specialize in special effects for Hollywood... In fact, there are no such companies in China. Few. But just a shot of dozens of frames can burn millions or tens of millions."
Lu Song's expression became quite solemn: "No investor is willing to take such a risk."
Song Ci sighed and said: "Based on your experience, how much money will be needed to film "Havoc in Heaven"?"
Lu Song directly stretched out his left hand and opened the entire palm, revealing five fingers: "This is just the pure production cost and does not include the actors' remuneration."
Lu Song picked up the coffee in front of him and motioned for Song Ci to take a sip: "Actually, there are many excellent screenwriters who have handed me scripts, and I like many of them. But more than 90% of the scripts are actually due to one or other reasons. In the end, Stillborn.”
Song Ci said: "What I understand is that I suddenly heard about the opportunity to cooperate with you, and I was a little excited, haha!"
Lu Song smiled and said: "I should be about the same age as your father. It doesn't matter. You still have a long time to live in the future. As for this book, my suggestion is to put it aside until the time is right before shooting. "
Song Ci took a deep breath, then stood up: "Okay, thank you Director Lu, then I won't disturb your work."
Lu Song said: "It's me who should be sorry. I didn't take pictures of your book, and I came here to talk to you. If we have a chance, we must cooperate once!"
After sending Song Ci away, Lu Song and his assistant smiled and said, "I think Song Ci is quite solid, and the writing in the book is also very unrestrained."
The assistant said: "Then you might as well invest in him directly and forget about it."
Lu Song waved his hand: "The risk is too great."
Assistant: "Of the twelve actors we auditioned today, which one do you want?"
The drama Lu Song is filming is called "Black and White".
The crew has been filming for more than two weeks, but Luo Shuang, the second male lead and a capable actor who plays the main villain, suddenly made a big splash in real life and has now been directly banned.
This caused a big trouble for Lu Song.
Now the crew is urgently filming other people's scenes first, and at the same time they are interviewing the new male lead.
Lu Song shook his head and sighed: "It's not like the perverted murderer I imagined. In fact, Song Ci's image is quite a bit of a gentle scum."
The assistant's eyes lit up and he said: "Then... how about we ask Song Ci to come over and give it a try?"
Lu Song was silent for a while: "I know that Song Ci has performed in many plays at the Xidu Repertory Theater... but his main job should be a singer, right?"
The assistant said: "I actually watched Song Ci perform once in person last year. The play was called "Small Town", and Song Ci played a mentally twisted pervert in it."
Lu Song's eyes lit up, he glanced at the assistant, and then said: "Call Song Ci and ask him to come over and give it a try!"
Song Ci received a call from Assistant Lu Song at the high-speed rail station.
He didn't expect that when he came this time, he didn't finish the script, but he got an audition opportunity.
So I quickly refunded my high-speed rail ticket and came back.
"Haha! Director Lu, if your call is half an hour later, I will be on the high-speed train!" Song Ci smiled and hugged Lu Song.
Lu Song's face was full of apologies: "I'm really sorry. You must know about the situation of our crew, right?"
Song Ci nodded.
Lu Song said: "Let me tell you briefly. If you look at the character you are missing now, in a nutshell, he is a perverted murderer. I won't give you specific situations and lines. You can rely on your own feelings and brew for ten minutes. I’ll take a look after that.”
Song Ci said: "I understand, let me ask one more question, why did this murderer kill?"
Lu Song said: "A person who has been suppressed for a long time takes action because of some interests. What this character needs is the madness in his bones."
Song Ci nodded slightly, raised his hand to touch his forehead, and then sat on the stool.
The sky outside is a bit gloomy.
After thinking for a moment, he walked to the window and closed the curtains, leaving only some gaps exposed.
Then he turned off the light again.
The whole room became a lot darker.
Lu Song and his assistant sat quietly aside.
Song Ci suddenly said: "Director Lu, do you have a cigarette?"
Lu Song was stunned for a moment and then said: "Yes."
Then he gave Song Ci a cigarette and handed him the lighter.
Song Ci lowered his head slightly and glanced at his assistant slightly.
The seemingly indifferent Gujing Wubo glanced at him, but the assistant suddenly had a cold war for no reason, and he felt goosebumps rising on his skin.
Song Ci's right thumb and index finger gently rubbed the cigarette.
Then he slowly removed the filter from the cigarette.
The whole person sucked the tail of the cigarette directly and lit the cigarette from where the filter was originally.
Then, take a deep breath.
This scene made Lu Song's eyes suddenly widen.
Taking advantage of the dim sky, Song Ci looked over again while holding a cigarette in his mouth.
The assistant immediately screamed and fell to the ground: "Oh my god!"
Song Ci smokes in reverse!
Lu Song was also surprised, and immediately a look of ecstasy appeared on his face!
This is what it feels like!
This is what he wants in this play!
Nest grass!
Luo Shuang did a great job overturning!
This reverse smoking operation is amazing!
Lu Song stood up directly, clapped involuntarily, and said, "I didn't expect it. I really didn't expect it. Your acting skills really exceeded my expectations."
Song Ci took out a breath and put a smile on his face, "Director Lu, what about this play?"
Lu Song laughed loudly: "This role is yours! Whoever comes from it can't be changed!"
