0002 [Do it with me]
"Chen Wen, after two years of college, he withdrew and opened an antique shop "Xianrenju" with his friends, eating, drinking, having fun every day, or writing horror novels. I don't know when, my brothers got together and started to worry about helping him find a girlfriend. Especially after getting to know Liu Rong, Chen Wen's little thing became the key topic when my brothers got together..."
Wan Xiaohu found paper and pen, and listed a rough plot of the movie on the white paper.
Then he wrote the name of the movie - "Waiting Alone".
This is not a famous movie, but it is a rare classic independent and low-cost film among domestic movies. It is the debut work of Chinese American director Wu Shixian in 2005. It tells the love life of young urban men and women, about the misses and waiting for love. This is a youth comedy movie with humanistic care.
Wan Xiaohu didn't know if the movie was released in theaters at that time and how the box office was. He had watched this movie on the 6th Film Channel. He said that no matter whether the box office would fail in the end, at least the movie was successfully sold to the movie channel. It is said that the reputation and DVD sales at that time were very good, and he also won the Best debut award at the Beijing College Student Film Festival.
The movie is simple, has a good reputation, and is not difficult to shoot. It is simply a movie tailor-made for Wan Xiaohu.
As a graduate of the Director Department of Beijing Electric, he has been working in the young director industry for several years. In addition, he has watched the original movie, writing a script is very simple for Wan Xiaohu. Not only writing scripts, he can also write storyboard scripts, and his sketching is no worse than professional art students.
The shots of "Waiting Alone" are simple to use, but there are more dialogues. Wan Xiaohu only remembers a rough story and specific lines and scenes, so he has to add them one by one. After spending fourteen years on the previous track, I have watched countless movies, and experienced the ups and downs of life. It is not too easy to add some lines.
Bang!
Just as Wan Xiaohu was thinking about it, the dormitory door was kicked open.
Then two young men in fur coats came in. One of them was tall and thin, looking like a little girl more like a student. As soon as he entered the door, he started shouting: "Tiger, I made an appointment with Ma Xia. I will go to the Jieshigao Disco tonight. Will you go?"
Wan Xiaohu raised his head and looked at the little ** in front of him carefully, and was stunned for a moment.
He just thought about making a movie, but forgot that he had returned to 2,000 years and that the people he had known would continue to know again. In a blink of an eye, fourteen years were passing by, and there were so many things worthy of his gratitude.
"What's wrong, tiger, I have flowers on my face? Or do you finally realize that you are a homosexual? I don't know how to eat this!" Xiao ** reached out and waved in front of Wan Xiaohu's eyes.
This person is nicknamed "Adult" and his real name is Chen Chong.
Many memories of Chen Chong suddenly flashed in Wan Xiaohu's mind. He was a student in the 1998 photography department and also Wan Xiaohu's roommate. Because his name is quite interesting, he was called Brother Cheng Long's younger brother adult by his classmates! If history develops according to the original route, Chen Chong will go to Hengdian to develop after graduation.
In the first year or two, everyone had contacts in Beijing, Hengdian, one north and one south. Later, they all failed and they broke down. The friends who were so happy that they wore pairs of pants disappeared without a word.
Wan Xiaohu didn't know what he felt now, and never thought that he would meet Chen Chong again and see him in this way.
The one who came in with Chen Chong was Li Xia from the dormitory next door, nicknamed "Mash". He was thinner than Chen Chong's thin bamboo pole, and had a lot of pockmarks on his face. He was a student in the 1998-level director department, and he mainly studied film and television sales. Because he lives close to each other, he has a good relationship and often eats and drinks together.
However, like Chen Chong, Li Xia later went to Hengdian, and then there was no news.
"Adult, mahjong." As soon as Wan Xiaohu said that, he found that he was hoarse.
"Damn, don't, you kid, we can't bear it!" Ma Xia hurriedly hugged his arm and made a look of fear.
"Get out, I'm a comrade, and I won't like your thin bamboo pole. It's less than a hundred pounds. It's probably broken if I toss it for a few minutes." Wan Xiaohu grinned and laughed.
It's great to do it again.
Chen Chong blinked: "Tiger, what do you mean? You don't like Ma Shrimp, which means, are you interested in me?"
Wan Xiaohu rolled his eyes: "Get out!"
"Oh, that's right. Your tone makes me feel at ease." Chen Chong laughed, sat on the edge of the bed, and drew over the white paper written by Wan Xiaohu, ""Waiting Alone"? OK, Tiger, are you starting to write the script?"
Wan Xiaohu grabbed the paper and coughed: "I wrote it blindly."
"I'll read what script." Ma Xia also wants to read it.
"No, don't, listen to me. I thought about it and thought that we can't just live like this. My buddies are determined to make a living in the entertainment industry. Now they don't have heavy studies, and they only have those classes a week, and they are idle most of the time. They are idle and idle, so it's better to find something to do. Do you think so?"
A hero and three helpers. Wan Xiaohu looked at Chen Chong and Li Xia and immediately became scheming. They were all good buddies, and there was no reason to get rich and not help their brothers. Moreover, if you want to make a movie, you will definitely be helping them. Chen Chong studied photography, Li Xia studied distribution, and he also had many classmates, those who studied performance, music, and art, and could form a film crew.
He has no connections and no funds now, which means he wants to complete an independent movie. He can't afford to hire a big star or a good photographer or a prop teacher, so let the seniors who will become popular in the future of Beijing Electric to make up the numbers. Even if the classmates are not experienced enough, it doesn't matter. Anyway, he just wants to shoot a movie sold to the movie channel, and it's not about making classics, so it's all right.
Save money and exercise for students, killing multiple goals in one go!
After licking his lips, Wan Xiaohu said again: "I am now preparing to draft a script, and the idea is all in my mind. But you also know that to make a movie, it is not possible to get things done just by saying it. I have no money or anyone, and everything has to start from scratch. This is very difficult. Should you two consider it and do it with me?"
"Making a movie? Brother, you don't have any water in your mind, what are you using to make a movie? This is not a classmate's sketch, everyone is happy, and a show comes out." Ma Xia exclaimed.
"Tiger, your idea is too unrealistic." Chen Chong shook his head.
Wan Xiaohu realized the reaction of the two. Ordinary people may not know how difficult it is to make a movie, but they are students of Beijing Film Academy and they will have to make this job in the future. Naturally, they understand the difficulty of making movies. Wan Xiaohu fourteen years ago would never dare to think crazy that he could make movies.
However, Wan Xiaohu is now a person fourteen years later.
As a rebirth, he has the confidence and confidence that others do not have. Making movies is no longer far away for him.
Because he is not afraid of risks!
He won't make bad movies!
