Entertainment: My house collapsed and I was forced to start making movies

Chapter 109 Jingtian’s Attitude
"No, he can pass Tongguan, why can't I, Jiang Wen?"

Looking at the script in front of him, Jiang Wen felt a headache.

Since the last time he participated in "Let the Bullets Fly", Jiang Wen has discovered a new way of thinking.

That is to shoot things with metaphors in the way of commercial films.

Coupled with some drama and comedy, it can completely fool the reviewers.

So Jiang Wen has been preparing his own script for most of the past six months.

Try to copy Tongguan's model.

Of course, just patterns.

The core is still the one that Jiang Wen is best at, not the one that he copied from Tong Guan.

But just when he confidently sent his carefully prepared script for review, the superiors called him back without hesitation.

Didn't even say where.

Jiang Wen found out after asking around with his own connections.

Failed all!
Jiang Wen was dumbfounded when he got the news.

What does it mean to fail at all?
It’s because the other party saw through his thoughts and wouldn’t let him take the picture!
This made Jiang Wen dissatisfied. Why could Tong Guan film it but Jiang Wen couldn't?
But now the fact is that Tong Guan not only filmed it, but also got high box office, while Jiang Wen couldn't even pass the script review.

The key point is that the fact that the script was not reviewed was not hidden.

Some investors who originally wanted to invest in Jiang Wen after watching the box office performance of "Let the Bullets Fly" started to wait and see again after learning that his script failed.

Obviously he is a little unfavorable to Jiang Wen.

This made Jiang Wen feel dizzy.

The script didn't pass the review, and the investors were on the sidelines. Wouldn't this cost him his life?

In desperation, Jiang Wen had to call Tong Guan to ask how he was doing.

"Hey, child guide, how are you doing lately? I have nothing to do, I just wanted to ask."

After listening to Jiang Wen's story, Tong Guan also fell silent.

In fact, this script was not passed at first.

It was later that Tong Guan asked other investors to help him intercede under the guise of cooperation, and then the superiors saw that he was a comedy producer, so they gave him the go-ahead.

Speaking of which, this is also luck.

He would definitely not be able to make it through now.

The above will not be fooled twice in the same place.

"Director Jiang, I really can't help you with this."

Hearing this, Jiang Wen also sighed.

"Oh~ Why is it so difficult to make a movie now? I'm so fucking convinced."

Tong Guan was also a little embarrassed to see Jiang Wen scolding his mother.

After all, Jiang Wen had helped him in his previous life, and the two had collaborated several times.

Jiang Wen still suffered his own loss this time. It would be a bit excessive if he didn't help him.
After thinking about it, Tong Guan said to Jiang Wen: "Director Jiang, why don't you send me the script?"

"Okay, child guide, please help me check."

Jiang Wen did not hesitate. Since Tong Guan said this, he obviously wanted to help him.

As for plagiarizing his script or something, Jiang Wen never thought about it.

Would Tong Guan, who could write so many good scripts, copy his scripts?
Jiang Wen was the first one not to believe it.

Not long after, Jiang Wen sent the script to Tong Guan's mailbox.

Tong Guan read it again and found that Jiang Wen had actually produced "The Evil Will Not Suppress the Righteous".

It's just that this version of "The Righteous One" is more comprehensive and not the heavily abridged version I saw in the cinema in my previous life.

In fact, Jiang Wen also suffered the consequences of "Let the Bullets Fly" in his previous life.

After this movie, Jiang Wen's script was not as difficult to review as usual, and the people above him were keeping an eye on him.

It's just that the drama "Let the Bullets Fly" is close to him, and many investors are helping Jiang Wen, so his script will not be completely rejected.

But directing and starring are two different things.

In this life, without this drama, Jiang Wen will naturally have no investors to speak for him, and it will be even more difficult to pass the review.

Tong Guan originally wanted to help Jiang Wen revise it, and then see if he could use his connections to help Jiang Wen.

But after reading the script, he gave up the idea.

Because the full version of "Evil Cannot Suppress Right" is really perfect.

Every action and every line in it has its own profound meaning.

It is more intoxicating than "Let the Bullets Fly".

Tong Guan can be sure that if this movie can be completely shot, the effect will definitely not be worse than "Let the Bullets Fly".

More importantly, in this drama, Jiang Wen added a lot of commercial elements, so even people who don't understand the connotation will not find it boring.

This determines that the box office will not be much worse than "Let the Bullets Fly" after its release.

Thinking of this, Tong Guan also called Jiang Wen again.

"Director Jiang, I can't change your script. It's indeed perfect."

"Perfect, right? I think it's perfect too, but the higher-ups didn't give it to me!"

"Director Jiang, I will recommend someone to you. How you communicate is your business. If you communicate well, this drama will pass."

"Real or false? Who is it?"

"The heroine of my new movie."

"The heroine of your new movie?" Jiang Wen repeated, and then suddenly thought of Jingtian.

"You mean Miss Jing? Can you help me? I don't know her."

"Miss Jing's family came to me before and said that as long as I make her famous, I can write any script. If you can impress Miss Jing, then you can pass."

Jiang Wen on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll ask the child guide to help me introduce him."

"Director Jiang, could you please come to my place some time?"

"Child Director, please let me know when the time comes. I can be there at any time."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Tong Guan called Jingtian again.

Tong Guan didn't say anything about asking her to help Jiang Wen's new movie. He just said that he wanted to introduce someone to her. He said that what the other person was best at was making women beautiful and attractive. There might be opportunities for cooperation between the two parties in the future.When Jingtian heard that there was such a person, he immediately expressed his willingness to get to know him.

The two parties briefly made an appointment and then hung up the phone.

When the phone hung up, Tong Guan sighed a little.

Thinking back to the first time she met Jingtian, she didn't even talk to herself at that time, and she only communicated with her through her agent.

At that time, Tong Guan thought that the other party had not seen much of the world and was a bit shy.

Now it seems that the other party simply looks down on himself.

It wasn't until when he was communicating with Jingtian about the script that Tong Guan discovered that this little girl actually had a sense of propriety in what she said and did, and was not a shy person at all.

"Miss Jing, it's our first time meeting you, so please take good care of me."

Jiang Wen extended his hand enthusiastically to Jingtian.

In his eyes, this person is his noble person. If he can convince this noble person today, then his future movies will be secured.

"Hello, Director Jiang."

Jingtian glanced at Jiang Wen a little surprised.

She didn't expect that Tong Guan would introduce a little-known director to her.

There are indeed many small directors in China these days who are capable, but have no resources, so they have been unable to get ahead.

Jingtian originally thought that this was the person Tong Guan introduced to her.

It turned out to be Jiang Wen.

Although Jiang Wen has not shot any particularly famous works in the industry in the past two years, he is still a famous director.

After all, not everyone dares to go against the will of their superiors and submit their works for awards before they have passed the review.

"Let's sit down and talk."

At this time, Tong Guan, as the intermediary, asked Jiang Wen and Jing Tian to sit down and chat first.

He sat in the middle, with Jingtian and Jiang Wen sitting on his left and right respectively.

After sitting down, Tong Guan also said: "Ms. Jing, maybe you don't know, Director Jiang was my assistant director during "Let the Bullets Fly". He shot many scenes in the movie, such as his wife blowing feathers. He was the one who took that shot.”

Hearing this, Jingtian glanced at Jiang Wen again.

She thought this scene was so beautiful when she was watching the movie. She thought it was shot by Tong Guan, but she didn't expect it was shot by Jiang Wenshang.

"Although Director Jiang has not filmed any outside-the-world works in the past two years, in terms of ability, I always feel that Director Jiang is in the first echelon of directors. It's just that he lacks some good scripts."

Speaking of this, Tong Guan looked at Jiang Wen.

Jiang Wen immediately understood what Tong Guan meant and began to communicate with Jing Tian.

"It's true. For directors like us, a good script is really important, so I have been studying new scripts for the past two years. But in addition to the script, actors are also a key part. A suitable actor, It can bring the finishing touch to the movie. The first time I met Ms. Jing, I felt that Ms. Jing is very suitable for my new movie script!"

If Jingtian didn't understand what the two of them meant at this time, then she would be a complete fool.

She glanced at Tong Guan with a half-smile, and then said to Jiang Wen: "Director Jiang, the script is actually a two-way choice. If you think I am suitable, I have to take a look."

Hearing this, Tong Guan and Jiang Wen glanced at each other subconsciously.

Both of them had the same meaning in their eyes.

There is a play!

"What a coincidence! I happened to bring it with me when I went out today, why don't Miss Jing take a look first?"

"Okay, let me take a look first."

Jingtian did not refuse.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Wen immediately took out the script and handed it to Jingtian.

Jingtian also checked it after taking it.

As she watched, her brows slowly wrinkled.

Jiang Wen panicked as soon as he saw this scene.

No, sister, don’t look down on me!
Fortunately, after reading the script, Jingtian said to the two of them: "I don't understand this script a little, but I understand it a little bit. Is it the same type as "Let the Bullets Fly"?"

"Ms. Jing has a great eye! It was after filming "Let the Bullets Fly" directed by Tong that I was so inspired that I wrote this script."

When Jiang Wen praised Jingtian, he did not forget to raise Tongguan. After all, without Tongguan, today's game would not be possible.

"I have to go back and see my agent about this. Director Jiang, do you mind if I take the script back?"

"I don't mind, of course I don't mind. Miss Jing is the number one choice for this role in my mind. The heroine will take the script back to read. What's the problem with this?"

"Okay, wait until my agent reads the script and gives Director Jiang a reply."

"okay!"

After talking about business, the three of them also started to eat.

During the meal, the three of them had a tacit understanding and stopped talking about the script.

Just before leaving, Tong Guan said something.

"Director Jiang is very talented, especially he is very good at photographing beautiful women. If Miss Jing cooperates with him, there may be unexpected results."

Hearing this, Jingtian also smiled at Tongguan.

"Don't worry, Director Tong, I will seriously consider it. However, if we cooperate, Director Tong's time will have to be arranged well, otherwise I won't be able to take the photo."

"It's okay, I can wait for Miss Jing. Anyway, the project hasn't been established yet, so it's still early."

Jiang Wen said from the side.

"Then I'll go back first."

"Miss Jing, walk slowly."

After seeing Jingtian off, Tong Guan handed Jiang Wen a cigarette, and the two of them stood at the door of the hotel and started smoking.

"Child Director, do you think this can be done?"

"I guess it's okay. I don't think Miss Jing has any objections. Besides, she took your script away and she probably liked it. I'm just not sure if her family has given it to me. I'll go back and ask for advice."

"Her family won't disagree, right?"

"Probably not, and not everyone has my level of box office appeal. The reputation of your new movie should be good, but the box office may not be so good."

"Yes, don't forget to praise yourself. You are worthy of being the director."

Tong Guan didn't speak, just smiled.
