Chapter 284: The Director Thinks It's Rubbish
"This is the script written by Mr. Jia himself!" Liu Zhengwei asked in some surprise.
"Yes, I wrote it myself!" Jia Yapeng nodded, this was indeed written by him himself, and there was no problem.
"Mr. Jia is really amazing, not only is he successful in business, but he can also write a script, I really admire someone Liu!" Liu Zhengwei said with admiration, but in fact, he had already sentenced this script to death in his heart.
A businessman plays with tickets and writes a script, what can be in it? It's not even smooth to speak, this kind of script is that he looks at himself alone, and in the eyes of others, he is afraid that he will laugh to death.
Of course, such a script must not be a good movie, even if Liu Zhengwei personally modifies this script, the main line inside, the plot or something, it must be a mess, not to mention whether it can make money, whether it can not be made during filming, it is good if the crew is not disgusted to death during filming.
Although I was full of slander in my heart, our Director Liu still had a smile and expectation on his face, opened the script of the movie, and read the first few pages.
"What kind of mess?" After only reading the first few pages, what kind of bandit is again, what kind of spider spirit, and a few inexplicable masters are still in a desert.
The various opening plots directly made Liu Zhengwei a little unbearable, as he guessed, this is really a piece of garbage, and it is a super invincible giant garbage.
Our Director Liu couldn't have imagined that this script was actually a movie script that he personally compiled a year later, or a script that was reversely sorted out based on the movie he made himself.
When filming "Journey to the West", there was originally a script, but the script was completely different from the movie. Because since the start of filming, whether it is Xing Ye or Liu Zhengwei, there are a lot of new ideas and all kinds of nonsensical ghost ideas in their hearts.
So they simply threw the entire script aside and began to shoot while writing the script.
According to Liu Zhengwei's memories in the future, when filming at that time, the script of the day was often made up by him and Xing Ye the night before, and during the actual shooting, once the actor felt that a certain line was more flavorful and nonsensical, then he would temporarily modify the line, or even temporarily modify the script.
For example, the heroine was originally only Zixia Fairy, and Bai Jingjing was just secretly in love with the Supreme Treasure, just as a character who led to the plot of the story.
It was during the filming, Bai Jingjing's roles were filmed more and more, and the characters became more and more plump, so that in the end, Liu Zhengwei had to revise the script and divide the movie into two parts, and at the same time let Bai Jingjing be the heroine of the first movie.
So when Jia Yapeng put the script sorted out based on the actual movie in front of Liu Zhengwei, the author, the author himself felt messy and fragmented when he looked at the script, it was completely a nonsense script, and it was just a loss of money when it was filmed.
So, Director Liu quickly said in a slightly apologetic tone, "Mr. Jia, you don't have any script, it's really a perfect script." But this style is not suitable for me, and my schedule is full this year, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find time to go to Ningxia with you to make a movie, so you see if you want to invite another Gao Ming! ”
"Director Liu, you really don't make this movie?" Mr. Jia looked at Liu Zhengwei in disbelief.
"I'm sorry, this movie is not for me, I can't make this kind of taste, you better ask for another master!" Liu Zhengwei said sincerely.
"Are you sure this script isn't for you?" Our Mr. Jia is a little at a loss, Liu Zhengwei is not suitable for this script, so who is suitable and can make this movie?
Mr. Jia fell into deep contemplation.
——————————————
Our Jia always really didn't expect that Liu Zhengwei, as the original director, would directly refuse the director after seeing the script of "Journey to the West", obviously he copied the script according to the finished version of the finished effect!
However, Liu Zhengwei's refusal could not make our Mr. Jia give up "Journey to the West", not to mention that in fact, Mr. Jia's original purpose has been achieved, and Liu Zhengwei, who rejected the script of "Journey to the West", also made Mr. Jia completely free of any mental burden.
As for the question of directors, there are so many directors in the world, I'm afraid I can't find someone who is willing to be a director?
The key is Master Xing, if Master Xing is unwilling to make this movie, then Mr. Jia will really be helpless.
But no matter what, Mr. Jia still has to make an appointment to meet this star master.
However, Xing Ye is not easy to see, Zhou Xingxing at this time is in full swing, and a lot of people take money and want to find him to make movies, so even if Jia is always a local tyrant, if Xing Ye doesn't want to see him, Jia Yapeng can't see him.
But fortunately, Xing Ye seemed to be in a good mood, Zhu Qiushui made a phone call, and agreed on the time of meeting, which was set a day later.
Jia Yapeng didn't know that this was actually the credit of "Farewell My Concubine". Xing Ye himself secretly went to watch "Farewell My Concubine", and he went to watch it on the first day of release, because after he heard that Guorong played a comrade, he was very curious about what would happen to this movie.
Then Xing Ye was not in a good mood for a whole day, and the whole person often lost his temper for no reason.
However, when he heard that Jia Yapeng, the investor and producer of "Farewell My Concubine", wanted to visit him, he agreed without hesitation, and he had something to talk to Jia Yapeng.
"Can you shoot another ending so that Dieyi doesn't die?" This was the first sentence that Xing Ye said when he saw Jia Yapeng, so that Jia Yapeng didn't know what kind of expression to make.
"I have to ask Director Chen, there are other main actors, if they are willing to shoot another ending, I have no opinion!" Jia Yapeng said with a wry smile.
"I'm sorry Mr. Jia, I watched it too much, this is really a unique good movie!" Xing Ye sighed and said, in the movie, Xing Ye is a nonsensical funny expert, but all the actors who have gotten along with Xing Ye know that this Xing Ye is the most severe, cold, and impersonal guy.
In private, he is not funny at all, his funny is all faked.
The most outstanding comedian in China, his funny is actually pretended, which may seem a little unbelievable, but it is the truth.
In addition, Chaplin and Bean abroad are also extremely serious and old-fashioned in life, without a funny atmosphere, and they are extremely difficult people to get along with.
"I don't know what Mr. Jia is looking for me today, what's the matter?" Xing Ye sighed for a long time before he remembered the topic, and then asked.
"Make a movie!" Jia Yapeng said.
"What movie?"
"A tragicomedy related to Journey to the West!" Jia Yapeng pondered for a while, and then said.
"Is there a script?"
"The script is here!" Mr. Jia learned a lesson and no longer said that he wrote this script by himself, lest this star master not even have the interest to take a look.
"Okay, put it here, I'll watch it, after reading it, I'll ask Mr. Jia to have dinner together!" When Xing Ye said this, it could be regarded as a send-off. At this time, he didn't even read the script.
"It seems that even the leading actor is going to be changed!" When Jia Yapeng came out of Xing Ye's house, he said with a frown. If the director is changed, Mr. Jia still has the confidence to shoot "Journey to the West", then if Zhou Xingxing is replaced, the taste of "Journey to the West" will really change.
Mr. Jia, who has no last resort, can't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart.
