In the imagination and understanding of a lot of people in this world, the financial industry and the securities industry are relatively mysterious. Practitioners are basically synonymous with high education and high IQ, and they are all high-level existences.

This is a cognitive deviation. According to those professional senior stock brokers, finance does not need to be very professional, but it needs to be very smart. If it is not used on the right path, it means that the rogues become financial elites. This is nothing special. Finance and securities are industries that are easy to go wrong.

The threshold for financial practitioners at the bottom of Wall Street is actually very low. The practitioners at the bottom of the school do physical work, and those who can do technical work are all elites at the top.

Just think about it and know what special technology is needed for a job like attracting customers? Every day, you just keep calling customers. The financial background is just to fool customers with some professional terms when attracting customers. It sounds more professional and easier to attract customers.

A reliable company will have a technical team to analyze it, and the buying and selling points are still well-founded. If an unreliable company, after attracting customers, you should buy and sell as much as possible and get the handling fee yourself. Of course, the more transactions, the better.

So don’t think that the financial industry is high-end, elite, especially account managers, who go from ordinary customers to account managers, that is, from fooling to big fooling.

In the 1970s and 1980s, due to the lack of supervision and scientific and technological restrictions in the government, Jordan Belford's situation was very common and was an absolute financial fraud, but the investigation was too difficult and the relevant laws and regulations were not perfect.

Just like Jordan Belford, how can we regulate communications and accounts and account assets in an era where even the main transactions are completed in banknotes and telephones?

However, since the mid-to-late 1990s, especially the rapid development of electronic computers since the new century, this method has completely become obsolete.

Especially the new high-frequency trading strategy, which uses the most cutting-edge computer to trade at one tenth, one percent, one thousandth, or even one millionth of a second, Jordan Belfort's fraud and trading methods have basically become history.

"Jordan Belfort intermediaries are not the most elite in the financial industry, because they are strictly just intermediaries, earning commissions for intermediaries."

After Gal Gadot read the script, Murphy said, "There is a saying that 'only people who are close to money can make money', so it is said that Wall Street makes the most money almost never will be such intermediaries, but they win in stability. Most of the owners are traders, managers of funds, private equity, and venture capital. However, overnight bankruptcy is also about this group of people. The real elites in the financial world are typical of making big money. A private equity firm with a scale of over 100 million US dollars, and even many practitioners have never heard of it."

Gal Gadot nodded and said, "I remember there was a saying in Jordan Belfort's original work, 'We will have no chance when big companies like Merrill Lynch enter."

"They can't compare with Merrill Lynch." Murphy wouldn't be stupid enough to think that this 'Wolf of Wall Street' would really be the master of Wall Street.

Although Jordan Belford has reached a considerable scale, the amount of fraud in the end is only more than 100 million US dollars. Even if inflation is considered, it will not exceed 500 million US dollars at most, which is still much worse than the real financial giants.

Finance is a kind of wealth redistribution, not wealth creation, it is a zero-sum game. To put it bluntly, it is how to stuff money into your own pockets from other people's pockets.

Murphy still remembers that when he was in college, the stock market and finance were three words high, big, and high.

An alumni who graduated before him could not find a suitable job in the film and television industry because of their school's average relationship. Later, his friend came to him and took him to a securities company to work as a broker.

The basic salary of 1,800rmb during the internship period was not given in the first three months. He worked for one year and nine months, earning 60,000 yuan in the most month. At the worst, he was chased by customers and didn’t dare to eat.

The man started his job as a phone call and made a call according to the list provided by the company. The list was bought from real estate companies in major first- and second-tier cities and 4S stores. After two months of call, he was transferred to be a customer service and was fooled by the penguin group.

There are a group of former traders like Jordan Belford who are given various awesome titles, and they are called mentors...

In some ways, Jordan Belfort's autobiography does not say anything wrong with gangsters, rogues, hooligans, thieves, liars...

In the words of the other side of the Pacific Ocean, fooling around has always been a very profitable skill.

Anyway, with the assistance of Wall Street professionals, Murphy and his screenwriter team successfully completed the scenes about finance and securities in the script.

Murphy also completely determined the tone of the future film a very wild and satirical black comedy.

In the following time, the hired screenwriters continued to fill in the outline framework he set, while Murphy modified the beginning of the script, changing the original sequential narrative into the flashback technique. It has to be admitted that such a biographical video is more suitable for narrative using flashbacks.

In general, the opening shots are about the beginning of the movie story, but just like the narrative narrative technique in literature has flashbacks, there are flashbacks in the opening shots of the movie.

Some films will deliberately intercept a certain segment of the middle stage of the story development and put it in the opening scene. As for the subsequent story, this slowly transitions to this segment, and explains the subsequent story of the segment, it has a meaning of winding paths.

The advantage of this technique is that it can enrich the story structure of the film and create more dramatic conflicts and tension. It is also conducive to mobilizing the audience's thinking so that the audience will not feel bored because the plot is simple and easy to understand.

At the same time, Murphy is also considering the actors. After several communications with Robert Downey Jr. and Jonah Hill, it is basically confirmed that these two people will play Jordan Belfort and his best friend Donnie Azov respectively.

However, the specific pay will have to wait for the project review of 20th Century Fox and then discuss it in detail after formally determining the investment amount of the film.

With the corresponding net worth of Robert Downey Jr. and Jonah Hill, the two of them have a combined salary of $20 million.

He was busy until mid-March, and the first draft of the script was announced. Since Murphy only provided an outline template, most of the actual content was the hired screenwriters were responsible for each. This assembly-based screenwriter creation can undoubtedly greatly improve efficiency and save time, but the final review must be checked by Murphy to find out the problems in time.

For scripts produced in assembly lines like this, the leader must check it by himself.

The first item of self-test is the protagonist. Murphy will check all the scenes in which the protagonist participates, and check whether the protagonist Jordan Belfort is proactive enough in the plot written by the screenwriters. The protagonist of a movie must firmly grasp control and never give up on struggle. A passive and passive protagonist can never attract the audience.

This can be said to be one of the foundations for shaping the role. Even Frodo Baggins, who was cheated by Gandalf, became an initiative at King Elron's meeting.

Not to mention Hollywood with extremely mature industrial chains, even the other side of the Pacific Ocean knows how to follow this basic principle. For example, in the famous "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", Big Big Wolf is very popular because he has the personality traits that a popular protagonist possesses: never give up, be proactive, always stick to his goals and never waver, that is, catch the sheep.

Even if you are hit, interrupted, or obstructed by various things, Big Big Wolf will not give up on the goal of catching sheep, so there will be a call in the market that you will marry Big Big Wolf when you get married, which is actually inseparable from his relatively successful character creation.

In the second aspect of self-test, Murphy wants to ensure that Jordan Belfort can always appear in the audience's sight. Even if he is not in some scenes, it still tells things related to him.

If the supporting characters and the audience meet more than the protagonist, then it is time to consider writing a script for the supporting characters alone, and this film may also fail.

Then there are the dialogues of all characters, that is, lines. Murphy asked each screenwriter to read the lines he was responsible for loudly, reading them to both him and themselves. If all the dialogues sound like one person talking, the script definitely needs to be overhauled and specially revised.

After seeing the protagonist, the supporting role cannot be ignored. This is also the link that Murphy focused on when setting the outline template. Even the supporting role must have a specific personality that attracts the audience, which will greatly improve the overall level of the script.

Finally, Murphy also asked lawyer Robert to review the script so that he could find out where the legal issues related to Jordan Belfort were touched.

In addition, it is to avoid some copyright conflicts.

Script writing itself is a commercial behavior. The writing process is not completely original, or clean, and the possibility of sparks of inspiration that belongs only to individuals is very small. Hollywood scripts are assembled, and the structure of most works is actually similar. For example, a very weak protagonist, after hard work, has obtained various opportunities and finally stands in the high-end field of society...

Its entire pattern and routine do not have new or old ones, only the differences in details, such as the protagonist's personality, behavior pattern, and opportunities encountered, in what way are presented to the audience bit by bit.

With Robert, an experienced lawyer in this regard, there will basically be no problems.
