Chapter 580 The most detailed script
Although she said she "didn't believe it", Chu Xiaoxiao still agreed to the project of Enron's film.
There's no other way. You've found everyone, you've got the script, and you've basically done most of the preparations. All that's left is to start filming.
It can be seen that An Ran is determined to make this movie, and it is useless to stop it.
Chu Xiaoxiao knows this brother very well. Since his father's death, he seems to have become a different person, with deep stubbornness engraved in his bones.
No one can take things back from what he decided, including her and Tang Ni.
Fortunately, at least until now, An Ran has not let her down.
Whether it's in pop music or variety shows, he can be proven right in the end.
So, why not let him be willful once?
If you win, it's a victory.
If he loses, it doesn't matter. An Ran is still young. This is his biggest capital and he can afford to wait.
She also believes that after An Ran loses once, she will understand more reasons.
Putting down the phone, Chu Xiaoxiao tapped the table lightly, doing cost accounting in her mind.
Not counting publicity, the production cost of this movie was almost 15 million. Hu Ge’s salary was the bulk of it, and as a director, Jiang Tao didn’t get much money. Adding in the filming cost, 5 million was enough.
Why not spend 15 million to let Enron learn?
If you only stay in this small area of the pop music world, even the little kings will have a hard time reaching the top, let alone the kings.
If film and television songs develop in all directions and their influence reaches beyond Xiazhou, then that is the king.
Chu Xiaoxiao picked up the phone and called Li Wenyuan first, asking him to bring over the script and read it.
Not long after the meeting, Li Wenyuan and Jiang Tao came over.
Li Wenyuan was speechless while holding the script.
He has just read the script, a simple but not simple script.
To be simple is to say that the story is simple.
The entire movie is one and a half hours long. It tells the story of the male protagonist who was trapped in a remote canyon by a falling rock during a hike and was unable to move.
Trapped and alone.
In the next five days, with great courage and extraordinary willpower, the male protagonist used the only tools around him and in his hands to cut off his arm that was pressed under the boulder, and climbed down from the cliff, and then
Walk to a place with people, get rescued, and survive successfully.
The story is a story of survival, and the entire film is of course indispensable without the male protagonist’s inner monologue and thoughts on life.
To put it bluntly, a person likes to think wildly.
This is all the content of the entire script, simple enough!
Chu Xiaoxiao has never seen the script, but she can also tell that the script is very simple.
It’s not easy because everything in the script is meticulously arranged.
Storyboarding, scene switching, emotional processing that needs to be expressed, and even light and shade are all taken into consideration.
This part of the content is more written than the content of the movie.
Chu Xiaoxiao read the script, and surprisingly she felt that the script was passable.
I don’t know if it’s her layman’s illusion.
She put down the script and asked: "Director Jiang, you are a professional in this. How confident are you in reading this script?"
Jiang Tao was silent for a moment, as if he was thinking about how to phrase his words.
After a while, he said: "Teacher An, you are the most talented screenwriter I have ever seen!"
Hmm?
Chu Xiaoxiao couldn't help showing an interested expression, and Li Wenyuan was also a little curious.
At least he didn't see how powerful it was, it was just a story of self-rescue, not that brilliant.
But Jiang Tao thinks so highly of it?
Chu Xiaoxiao leaned on the chair, "Tell me about it!"
Jiang Tao took the script and said: "This is the most detailed script I have ever seen. An Ran not only did the screenwriting, he also did the directing and camera work. Even the job of producer Li is written here."
It’s detailed inside!”
"As for an actor, if he wants to act, he will definitely be no worse than Hu Ge. The details of how to perform are written very carefully. As long as an actor has some skills, he will know how to write it at a glance!"
Is it so powerful?
In fact, Enron had no choice but to do this.
This movie was nominated for an Oscar for Best Picture on Earth. Although it ended up being a sideshow, this movie with only one character became the hottest topic at the time.
The actors' performances, the director's conception, and the structure of the script all aroused heated discussions.
Moreover, the movie's reputation is quite good, and the rate of return is also pretty good.
If An Ran wants to break into the film and television industry, this movie is just right. It has good reputation and box office, and will eventually win an award.
Therefore, there must be no flaws in this film.
In order for everyone to achieve that effect without going off track, he had to write in great detail.
It doesn’t matter if others see it.
At most I think the script is a bit detailed.
But Jiang Tao was dumbfounded when he saw it. This was too detailed.
This is just a movie shooting instruction manual.
How to do every step, how to act, how to shoot, everything is written accurately.
Others can't imagine it, but he can!
Can you imagine that this is a guy who can clearly describe the shooting scene just by imagining it?
If he were on set, Jiang Tao could also do it. After all, most directors can write to this level based on the actual situation.
But just thinking... let alone him, even those great directors can't reach this level!
Based on this script alone, he could conclude that An Ran's talent in movies was no less than his talent in singing.
Mudd, even a dog can make this movie.
Chu Xiaoxiao was a little surprised. She didn't think Jiang Tao was exaggerating. You should know that he was the final director of this drama. If the script is not good, he will also be affected.
It seems that this younger brother did not just have a sudden idea, but had a premeditated plan.
That’s fine too.
Chu Xiaoxiao nodded, "How much do you estimate the box office of this movie will be if it is made?"
This...
No one dares to say it.
There are too many reasons for uncertainty. There were many movies that were popular at the time. If you watch them ten years later, you will kneel down and say sorry. I was blind back then, but now they seem to be classics.
He thinks that if this movie is filmed, the box office will not be less than 60 million!
But what if the audience doesn’t buy it?
Jiang Tao hesitated and said: "I estimate it will not be less than 50 million!"
Chu Xiaoxiao nodded, it was better than she expected.
Even if it loses money, how much money can one person's movie lose?
Chu Xiaoxiao immediately arranged: "Mr. Li, please submit a cost budget immediately, and then discuss it with Director Jiang and prepare to start filming!"
"Okay, Mr. Chu!" Li Wenyuan thought for a moment and said: "Mr. Chu, I don't expect the cost to exceed 15 million, but what if we lose money?"
He is really not optimistic about this script!
Chu Xiaoxiao said domineeringly: "15 million, it doesn't matter if you let An Ran play..."
These words immediately left the two of them speechless.
Chapter completed!
