Disaster Artist

pat... pat... pat... pat... pat...

Irregular typing sounds surging in the quiet space, stirring up a circle of ripples, as if the light and shadow are slowly swaying and swaying, so that the flow of time also slows down, and a certain moment produces a kind of The illusion of being caught in a black hole of time and space, only your brain is turning.

When Ji Xu opened the door, this was what he saw. Lu Qian, who devoted himself to the creation of the script wholeheartedly, could catch clues from the beard and greasy hair of Lazha during the work process. Normal people.

If it was normal, Ji Xu would have turned around and left lightly, avoiding any rash actions that might disturb Lu Qian's work status.

But today is not the usual—

"Director Lu!"

Ji Xu's loud voice exploded like a thunderclap on the ground, but Lu Qian was unmoved at all, his hands still flying over the keyboard.

Ji Xu couldn't hold back, rolled his eyes, strode to the opposite side of Lu Qian's desk, squatted down silently, only a pair of eyes floated behind the computer screen, looking at Lu Qian silently like a ghost diving, and then a strange sound came out of his mouth.

"Woooooo... oh oh... look at me, look at me... A Qian..."

If there was a sound like nothing floated up, Lu Qian raised his hand and grabbed a book next to him and threw it over, so frightened that Ji Xu quickly shrank his neck and exclaimed.

"Aqian!"

Ji Xu angrily expressed a strong protest.

At this moment, Lu Qian finally raised his eyes.

"My inspiration has been interrupted, and the project may be interrupted. What do you say?"

This is of course a joke. The creative inspiration has already formed, and it will not disappear. After all, script writing and film shooting are long-term tasks, and it is impossible to rely on the inspiration of chicken blood. What is more important is a stable long-term way of creation.

Moreover, Lu Qian's script writing process today was not very smooth, and it was a little stumbling.

Since the meeting with Jiang Haowen, Lu Qian has entered a state of retreat work. He first created the script outline and transformed the main story line into text, but he has not yet extended the framework and branches, because he needs to complete it from a global perspective. layout--

The "Human Clearance Project" trilogy, the "Fast Pursuit" trilogy.

How should the trilogy arrange the staged tasks and endings, and how should the three stories be connected to form a huge pattern; more importantly, when it falls on each story, how should it grasp the core of the theme Let the story come together to form strength.

In fact, there are countless trilogy in the film industry, but the ones that can really be called classics are very limited. The reasons are complicated, but the main reason is the entire business model.

The ultimate goal of film companies shooting trilogy is to make money, so they often take one step at a time. If the first film makes money, they will continue to invest in the second and third films; or if the trilogy is still profitable, Then they will continue to extend to the fourth and fifth.

It is precisely because of this that creators are often **** when building a trilogy. Sometimes they don't know whether there will be a second part in the follow-up, and they dare not build the story frame easily; sometimes it is a trilogy. The stories are created separately and seem to be connected, but in fact each time is a new creation, and the inner context is separated.

For example, "The Hunger Games", because the box office was a big hit, the third part of the series learned the method of "Twilight", and it was divided into two episodes. As a result, the stories of the two episodes became empty and boring. With the finale, the box office can reach a new high, but it did not.

Another example is "The Divergent", because the results were not satisfactory, the fourth part of the series was cancelled directly, but the most absurd part is that the original book is actually a trilogy, and then the producer thought that the film would be successful, so he studied it like a gourd. "The Hunger Games", the third part is divided into two parts, and then the third part is the first episode, and the fourth part is the second episode.

Who knows, the third film was terrible at the box office, and the film company was unwilling to continue to put it on the screen, so they planned to shoot a TV movie and give an ending on the small TV screen. However, when the actors learned that the movie would not be released on the big screen, they refused to appear. As a result, the fourth episode was cut in half like this, which means that the series of movies has no ending.

It's also hilarious.

Seeing the micro-knowledge, because the film company's plan for the sequel may change all the time, it is naturally difficult for the creator to ensure the integrity and unity of the work.

Now Lu Qian wants to avoid such a problem.

Regardless of success or failure, the story of the trilogy must be a complete whole. Even if it fails, all three stories will be told. Even if it succeeds, there will be no sequel after the end of the trilogy. Only in this way can the quality be guaranteed. amount to ensure that the story of the trilogy is complete—

For Blue Whale Pictures, they are just starting out, profit is very important, and word of mouth is equally important.

After the creation of the context, Lu Qian officially entered the creation of the frame and structure, but today's work progressed smoothly, mainly because Lu Qian himself did not fully determine the development direction of the story.

Whether it's the "Human Removal Plan" or "Fast Pursuit", Lu Qian hopes to create a brand new series, which is different from the series he is familiar with in his own time and space, so the entire background structure, character settings, etc. need more pondering.

In particular, Lu Qian knows very well that these two films are commercial films, so it is very important to keep the rhythm clean and neat, which further highlights the importance of the frame template.

Lu Qian needs to sort out his thoughts.

Ji Xu was taken aback by Lu Qian, but after thinking about it for a moment, he came to his senses.

"You won't completely forget it, will you? Meeting with the director tonight?"

"I knew you were so engrossed in your work that you must have forgotten about it, so I came to you an hour and a half earlier, and you blamed me for interrupting your creative inspiration?"

"What to do? Tomatoes and cucumbers! What do you say!"

Ji Xu babbled a lot of ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ and then stepped back in a conditioned reflex, taking a defensive stance, as if Lu Qian would violently hit someone in the next second, the action was very funny.

Lu Qian couldn't help laughing, "Ah, ah, ah, I really forgot, Director Hou Xiaochuan, I'm going to wash up right away!"

While talking, Lu Qian stood up and hurriedly walked towards the bathroom.

"Don't worry, just give me fifteen minutes, I'll be fast."

There is indeed an appointment tonight. Lu Qian, the director that Lu Qian was looking for for the "Fast Pursuit" series, took a lot of effort to contact him to make an appointment for tonight's meeting. It is absolutely impossible to be late.

Fortunately, Ji Xu had foresight and came over in advance, otherwise Lu Qian, who was immersed in script work, would have really forgotten about it.
