Yun Li, a poor working girl, spent money supporting a scumbag boyfriend through school and daily expenses, only to unexpectedly catch him cheating!
After feeling heartbroken and angry, she de...
Lin Shuyan nodded and said embarrassedly, "I majored in directing in college, and my grades have always been very good.
And "Crime and Disease" is the script I wrote.
I understand the feeling and atmosphere of the film better than any other director."
After saying this, he continued, "If...if you are willing to let me shoot the film, I can not take the director's share of the money."
In fact, when Lin Shuyan first wrote "Crime and Disease", he was thinking about filming it himself.
But he was a newcomer who just graduated last year, and he was writing a horror suspense movie which was in a very sluggish market, so he couldn't get any investment at all.
That's why he later focused on recommending his own scripts.
However, Yunli's appearance and her words have rekindled Lin Shuyan's dream of becoming a director.
After hearing his words, Yunli just looked at him.
He didn’t say yes or no, but just asked, “After the film ‘Crime and Disease’ is finished, I plan to try to release it in theaters.
Are you confident in your directing abilities?
Can we present a good viewing experience to the audience?"
In...in theaters?!
Lin Shuyan was really shocked when he heard Yunli's words.
Horror movies have been on the decline for a long time now.
The screening rates of those movies that are stubbornly released in theaters are shockingly low, and there is basically no difference between being released and not being released.
wrong.
There is still a difference.
The losses in theaters will be even greater.
Lin Shuyan originally just thought that it would be good enough if "Crime and Disease" could pass the review and be broadcast online smoothly.
As a result, the boss he met by chance said he wanted to release it in theaters?
thump!
Plop!!
Plop!!!
Lin Shuyan's heartbeat was getting faster and faster.
What screenwriter doesn’t want his or her script to be made into a movie and released in theaters?
Although he is not an orthodox screenwriter.
But "Crime and Disease" was the script he wrote. He also likes writing scripts and is determined to become a director who writes and directs his own works in the future.
So the scripts he wrote could be made into movies.
And the fact that the investors were planning to release it in theaters made him so happy that he almost exploded!
However, if a movie is to be released in theaters, the quality of the finished product must be much better than that of the online broadcast.
Compared with online movies, theater movies have higher requirements for directors.
Is he confident in his directing abilities?
Can it present a good viewing experience to the audience?
Lin Shuyan wanted to nod.
But when he thought about the fact that he had no experience in shooting a serious movie, he felt a little hesitant.
Seeing his troubled and nervous look, Yunli said calmly, "It seems you have no confidence.
That being the case, let's talk about the price of the script "Crime and Disease".
Just give me a number, and I’ll sign the contract if I think it’s suitable.”
Lin Shuyan heard her decisive words.
For some reason, he felt that if he missed this opportunity, he would never have such a good opportunity again.
"I..." Lin Shuyan clenched his fists and encouraged himself, "I can try.
I have shot short videos, long videos, short dramas and micro-movies.
I think I have no problem making movies!
right!
I think I can, please give me a chance to prove myself!"
Yunli raised his eyebrows and did not agree to him immediately.
Just when Lin Shuyan was getting restless, she spoke up: "What's your budget for this movie?"
The topic changed so quickly that Lin Shuyan was momentarily confused. "Huh? What budget?"
"The budget for the film." "Crime and Disease" was a good script, so Yunli was very patient. "How much investment do you need for "Crime and Disease"?"
Lin Shuyan was stunned for a moment, then became excited.
She has agreed to let him film "Crime and Disease"!
"Three...five million!" Lin Shuyan originally wanted to say three million.
But thinking that "Crime and Disease" would eventually be released in theaters, I added an extra two million to the budget.
But whether it was three million or five million, it was much lower than Yunli's imagined budget: "Five million, is that enough?"
"That's enough." Lin Shuyan hastily assured, "There aren't any big scenes in 'Crime and Disease'.
The entire plot of the movie basically takes place in the protagonist's home and the desolate cemetery behind his home.
And there aren't many characters.
The main characters are only the male protagonist, the woman he killed, and a doctor who only has a voice but no real image in the early stage.
You don’t even need to set up a film and television base as the shooting location, you can just rent a house in a village in the city.
And the actors can just wear their own costumes.
After all, the male protagonist is just an ordinary person.
And the woman he killed only had one set of clothes from beginning to end.
The props used in the movie are all common knives, axes, etc., and some simulated human limbs.
The most expensive things about "Crime and Disease" are the filming equipment and the actors' salaries.
So, five million is enough."
Yunli had read the script of Crime and Disease and knew that what Lin Shuyan said was true, so he didn't worry about the filming budget: "Have you decided who to hire as the actor?
"Crime and Disease" as a whole can be said to be a one-man show for the male protagonist.
This requires the actor who plays the male lead to have very good acting skills that can withstand the test of the big screen.
And for an actor with such acting skills, his pay should not be low.
