Chapter 424: There is love without words, the silent battle flag (1)

Liu Jingting’s successful cooperation with WB is obvious to everyone. Now he suddenly visited Hollywood with a new project in a low-key manner, and avoided WB and asked other companies to discuss cooperation. It is impossible not to be suspicious. {

Therefore, Frank had such doubts, but for Liu Jingting, who had already planned, he was neither willing to disclose information about the other two movies nor wanted to make up any excuses. He had to stop negotiations and save their time. It was not entirely a game skill at the negotiating table.

Frank's main task this time was to take down Liu Jingting, a partner by playing hard to get. Unexpectedly, the other party did not play according to the common sense and left as he said, with a look of a momentum of many people queuing behind him.

"Mr. Frank?"

Liu Jingting did not sit down immediately and said in a slight tone of doubt.

Frank smiled helplessly and said, "Yes, please sit down, two of you."

Liu Jingting nodded to Yang Lilu, then sat back, paused, and said, "Mr. Frank, I understand your doubts. I have something to say, whether it is WB or PLM, my attitude towards cooperation is consistent, and there is no priority."

Liu Jingting suddenly laughed at himself and continued, "And I believe you have also participated in this year's Oscar."

Frank smiled and nodded, saying, "I understand."

"so……"

"Please tell me your story."

This time, Liu Jingting did not continue to make any reservations, and described the outline of "Shawshank" and emphasized the "institutionalization" of another core of the film.

"At first you hate the high walls around you, slowly, you get used to living in them; eventually you will find that you have to rely on it to survive. This is called 'institutionalization'."

This is an extremely profound metaphor. This passage and the story it represents lures the movie into another depth. "Institutionalization" on the surface says that prison actually covers all aspects of social life.

The rules that a person hates are often the last and most dependent backer.

Liu Jingting talked for about half an hour, and Frank listened very seriously, occasionally asking a few more targeted questions. Finally, Liu Jingting summarized again: "Most of the content of the movie is carried out in prison, but this time the prison is no longer filled with violent fighting as before. Instead, it is trying to build a narrowing society."

Frank pondered secretly, staring at the table, and after a minute, he reached out and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Liu Jingting, I apologize for my behavior just now. We'll take this movie."

It is basically the same as Liu Jingting expected, two or three scripts in one day, and all of them will be completed.

...

“I think you are scary sometimes.”

After Frank left, Yang Lilu looked at Liu Jingting and suddenly said something like this.

"How do you say this?"

"You can always figure out what others think. You are only in your twenties, so why do you look like an old wizard?"

"I am more than that old, and are you afraid that I will guess what you are thinking?"

"What am I afraid of? Just guess what I am thinking."

Liu Jingting reached out and held Yang Lilu's hand. He said, "I was not like this before. I read too much, and it became like this."

"It's the same thing again."

Liu Jingting nodded with a smile and said, "Not everyone has a sound cognitive system. Either you have rich life experiences or you have read a lot of books, otherwise it will be difficult to form an independent cognitive logic for yourself. Over time, you will easily become a parrot that follows the trend and follows the crowd."

Yang Lilu asked: "Then guess what I'm thinking now?"

Liu Jingting looked at Yang Lilu's eyes and suddenly smiled strangely, saying, "You're wondering why you didn't bring that glass jar with you."

Yang Lilu waved and hit her.

...

For a while, the two became more and more busy, and they had a long and continuous discussion and finalization of the script with three Hollywood professional teams. Due to Liu Jingting's proposition and persistence, the content of the script was almost determined by one story point and one story point, and the serious and persistent attitude left a deep impression on the partners.

As the script story of "Shawshank" gradually became richer and the professional attitude that Liu Jingting showed, Frank, who was responsible for contacting this matter, finally felt relieved - there was absolutely no trick here, and Liu Jingting brought a valuable work.

The complexity of the project volume was beyond Liu Jingting's previous expectations, and the energy consumption was not weaker than the original "Seven Opens".

Half a month passed, and only half of the three scripts were completed. With the premise that there was an outline of the script and most plot points, this speed was not fast. Moreover, due to Liu Jingting's strong insistence on the main line of the script, some people from the three teams left one after another.

This time, the work is to polish the details of the script. The main story is just nominally taken out and everyone discusses it. In fact, it is impossible, and there is no need to make unnecessary changes.

In any case, these differences more or less delayed the work time, or in other words, it was part of the work itself, and the price was that Liu Jingting was delayed again and again when he returned to China. In the end, he had to hand over the publishing of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to Chang Youdao and Wang Jianshan for processing, and at the same time invited his father to Jianghai to sign various contracts.

Fortunately, Liu's father was responsible for the cultural station for a long time and was very careful in his work. He would never yell at the editors of "The Boss and Heroes". This is also one of the reasons why Liu Jingting dared to bother his father.

The three scripts were revised for about 36 days. It was already April when Liu Jingting and Yang Lilu returned to China. At this time, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was already selling well nationwide. The listing of the whole book once again triggered a wave of Three Kingdoms craze. It was officially a university professor and informally ordinary netizens had related comments and articles.

The gathering place for literary youths - Douya Reading, gave "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" a high score of 9.5.

In addition, under Chang Youdao's operation, the free book gift activity has attracted more than 200,000 registered members for the "Huashan Forum", and the "Comment and Books" micro blog received more than 700,000 messages.

Five hundred thousand novels are completely sold out without any problem.

Liu Jingting and Yang Lilu returned to Jianghai in a hurry and received a good news. However, just as everyone was rushing to report on their work, Liu Jingting suddenly became dark in front of him and fell swaying on Xu Qing. The office suddenly became in chaos.

Xu Qing turned around and held Liu Jingting in her arms, shouting anxiously: "120! Quick!"

...

Overworked and the bumps of the plane for more than ten hours, then when I returned home, my nerves suddenly relaxed, causing me to faint.

In fact, before everyone arrived at the hospital, Liu Jingting woke up. Looking at the scene in front of him, he was confused at first, then understood and smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone, I'm fine."

Yang Lilu, who had been sitting next to Liu Jingting, holding his left hand in both hands, suddenly burst out with two tears in her eyes. She put Liu Jingting's hand on her face and said, "If you have something to do, I can't survive."

Su Jin, the girls of Green Pepper, had their eyes red in an instant. Kang Lingyue, who had been silent as if the rocks on the moon, also breathed a sigh of relief at this time, slowly letting go of her tightly clenched fists, and her palms were covered with sweat.
