Director’s Legend

In late March, life continued, and filmmaking continued.

"Scarlett, pay attention to your expression, you shouldn't be acting slutty now, unrestrained and slutty are not the same expression, okay?" Holding a loudspeaker, Shao Shuaijun scolded Scarlett mercilessly while looking at the monitor .Johnson.

Now he has regretted choosing Scarlett instead of Allen. Scarlett is indeed more suitable for the idol school than the acting school. The audition part was just a flash in the pan. Without Allen as a competitor, Scarlett's acting skills immediately degenerated to the vase stage.

"Slutty, you think my expression is slutty just now? What kind of eyes do you have? I clearly acted very pure, okay? I've lost a lot of weight now, why are you so picky!" Scarlett complained loudly , her weight loss is quite successful, at least she doesn't look as plump as before.

Coupled with the tailoring of the clothes, Scarlett looks a little thin, which is very in line with Shao Shuaijun's positioning of the heroine Summer, too spicy and not in line with the taste of small and fresh.

Shao Shuaijun scratched the eyebrows at the corners of his eyes with his little finger, ignored Scarlett's complaints, and said directly: "The lighting and props are all ready, the photographer pays attention, let's do it again. Gordon, wait a moment and guide Scarlett, don't The performance is like sex, you have to restrain yourself and have an explosion, and when you explode, you have to restrain yourself and withdraw a little."

"It's very difficult." Gordon lacked confidence.

"Try it first!"

Under Shao Shuaijun's powerful suppression, Scarlett had to re-enter the state. This section is the most emotional moment between the heroine Summer and the actor Tom. A slightly passionate scene on the bed. As a small novel, naturally there is no such sensual scene, the bottom line is to caress each other.

Before the performance was over, Shao Shuaijun yelled: "Cut!"

"What's the matter?" Scarlett complained.

Shao Shuaijun got up from behind the monitor, came to the bedside, held his chin in thought, looked at Gordon for a while, and Scarlett for a while. Sometimes serious, sometimes stretching his brows, and then said: "Gordon, I think there is a gap between you and Scarlett. You didn't show a deeper state. You know, Tom is a man who believes in love at first sight and destiny. Boys, love is hot and impulsive."

Then she said to Scarlett: "And Summer is a girl who is desperate for love. This is because her parents divorced. She no longer believes in love. She is with Tom with a playful attitude. But This doesn't mean Summer is a bitch, she's just naive. It's a feeling of confusion and self-abandonment."

Clapping his hands, Shao Shuaijun continued: "So, a different spark of love will be created between you. Tom loves unreservedly, but wants to get something in return. On the one hand, Summer likes this feeling, on the other hand, he also loves it. I always want to escape, but in the final analysis, this relationship is based on true love... Forget it, I can’t talk to you in words, Gordon, please pay attention to me, I will play a scene with Scarlett, from the beginning start."

Sometimes it is difficult to accurately describe the meaning to be expressed in words. Shao Shuaijun thinks that it is better to demonstrate by himself than dry-mouthed explanation.

"Scarlett, go to bed and lie down!"

"Oh, that's really good. I want to see how the great director can act." Scarlett lay on the bed with a smile on her face.

"Shut up, brew your emotions... 3, 2, 1, start!"

Shao Shuaijun slowly climbed onto the bed, put one hand on Scarlett's waist, and then lay on his side, staring at Scarlett's eyes, so close that he could feel each other's breath: "Honey, I I don't know what to tell you."

Scarlett blinked, her towering chest heaved and fell, according to the plot, she didn't speak.

Shao Shuaijun continued to make affectionate gestures: "But, there is a Chinese family in our bathroom."

Then the two slowly turned their heads to look in the direction of the bathroom. Of course, there are no Chinese families now, and later, a group of Chinese families will be filmed standing in the bathroom, looking at the hero and heroine depressedly. In fact, the place where the two of them are lying now is not their own bed at all, but a bed in a shopping mall, and they are all here to buy bedding...

Looking back, Shao Shuaijun whispered: "Now, laugh, don't laugh, maybe you can try to bite your own finger to strengthen the atmosphere at this time."

Scarlett complied, then read her lines: "This is so much fun, you're so much fun, thank you."

Then, there was the kissing scene. According to the plot, it was just lips touching lips.

But the situation came unexpectedly.

Scarlett suddenly hugged Shao Shuaijun's neck and kissed fiercely, startling Shao Shuaijun who was trying to express his thoughts on the spot. Then his mouth was knocked open, and he was forcibly kissed by Scarlett, and he even pestered him for a while without thinking.

A few seconds later, Shao Shuaijun suddenly came to his senses, and suddenly pushed Scarlet away, shouting, "What are you doing! You're playing hooligans!"

Scarlett laughed loudly: "Hahahahaha, it's really interesting, wow, the taste is wonderful."

The staff all laughed along.

Shao Shuaijun was speechless, everyone thought it was a joke, but he was really violated! Why is it like this, when a woman is kissed by force, everyone will blame the man. And when the elders are violated, everyone will laugh along with it?

Looking at Scarlett with a sullen expression on his face, Shao Shuaijun was really embarrassed to be really angry, besides, the feeling just now... Ahem, Shao Shuaijun sternly said: "You are all laughing, be serious, this is Working time! Gordon, did you see what I did just now? Just do it! And you, Scarlett, are you happy to be a female hooligan? If you don’t act well, you will work overtime tonight, and everyone will forget about it Let's go to the hotel to have fun! Don't blame me, blame Scarlett for being unprofessional!"

When they heard about working overtime, everyone stopped laughing and all looked at Scarlett.

The source is in her.

Scarlett tilted her head and said with a snort, "Isn't it just acting, let me show you the strength of the idol acting school!"

After the frolicking, the shooting finally entered the state, and it got stuck three times. Finally, this bed scene was resolved. Looking at the time, there was still a while before the end of get off work, Shao Shuaijun simply called off work early, and got a continuous stream of flattery from the employees. After tidying up the copies, Shao Shuaijun was about to go back when Scarlett walked over and said lightly, "How about going for a drink together, my treat?"

"No!" Shao Shuaijun immediately refused.

"You can't be so boring, Shao, you should choose an English name. Then we all go to the wine bar and drink together. I'm not alone, what are you afraid of?"

"I'm not afraid of anything, but I don't like to drink, and I don't like to soak in wine. Also. I don't want an English name. I just like to hear you call me by my name. It feels good. Also , I also want to remind you, don’t give me a hangover to act tomorrow. Otherwise, you will know how serious the consequences are if you offend a director!” Shao Shuaijun handed the backpack to the assistant and said with a smile.

"Aren't you still angry that I forced you to kiss me just now?" Scarlett stretched her arms exaggeratedly, "OK, I apologize to you, how about it?"

"Angry? Am I such a small-minded person?"

"Obviously."

"Oh, come on, everyone who knows me knows that I'm the most generous gentleman! Goodbye, see you tomorrow. Don't get hungover!" After finishing speaking, Shao Shuaijun strode out, got into the car, and disappeared without a trace.

Scarlett looked at the car going away, flattened her mouth: "It's just a kiss, I can't stand it, how petty. Fortunately, I still think that seeing his domineering as a director, Chinese people are very manly, shame!"

Not mentioning Scarlett's depression, Shao Shuaijun got into the car, and a flash of light came on, and asked his assistant, "What did I ask Scarlett to not want?"

The assistant thought for a while: "It seems that I don't want her to get a hangover."

"Yes, it's a hangover! Haha, I almost forgot, ok, don't go back, call Mitchell, let's go to the company, I have new ideas to tell him." Shao Shuaijun laughed.

When we arrived at Summit Entertainment's office, Mitchell immediately asked, "Shao, what are your thoughts?"

"Don't worry, is the company's investment plan tense recently?"

"There is no urgency, twitter is developing rapidly, and we have already started researching mobile phone application software according to your suggestion. As for the film company, "Dancing Out of My Life 2" and "Twilight Saga: New Moon" have already been produced. In the later stage, I started to arrange the schedule, and I also participated in the investment of several films, but it is not an independent production, so there is no financial pressure."

Shao Shuaijun nodded: "Very well, I have a new idea, an idea for a comedy film, you call the screenwriter, we will create this comedy film now, I call it "The Hangover."

Summit Entertainment also had several permanent screenwriting teams, who were quickly summoned. Shao Shuaijun is here, briefly telling the story of "The Hangover".

It's a comedy set in Las Vegas, where three groomsmen and a soon-to-be-wedding groom get drunk at a bachelorette party, only to wake up to find the groom is gone, and they must remember what happened last night. Everything that happens later can find the groom and hold the wedding smoothly.

In the last trajectory of life, "The Hangover" didn't have much nutrition, but as an R-rated comedy, it refreshed the box office data of this genre, and the sequels were also sold well. Besides, the cost was very low, so it can be said to be a big gold mine. Since his rebirth, Shao Shuaijun's memory is not so good. The movies he pondered about in his previous life are still fresh in his memory, but he doesn't pay attention to them. Sometimes he can't even remember the names, especially foreign movies.

Now he searches for some novels on Amazon, and compares his memory to see which one has been adapted into a movie, and the box office is not bad, and then buys it. Otherwise, memory alone is really useless. Even if you remember the name and don't know the plot, there is still nothing you can do. If it weren't for today, Shao Shuaijun would have almost forgotten the gold mine of "The Hangover". Fortunately, he has watched "The Hangover" and remembered the general plot, and the screenwriters can add others.

After dealing with "The Hangover", Shao Shuaijun was in a good mood. With "The Hangover", it was equivalent to adding hundreds of millions of dollars in banknotes. No one doesn't like a lot of money. Shao Shuaijun is now waiting for the good movies of the past two years to be finished and earn enough money, and then he will explore new works by himself.

After returning home, Shao Shuaijun took a shower and continued to study the copy. At his villa, the basement was converted to handle copies and cut shots. On the workbench, there was a big computer screen. Shao Shuaijun turned on the computer and directly logged into YY.

Time yy not only supports voice chat, but also adds a video call version. There is a ten-hour time difference between Los Angeles and Beijing. The night in Shao Shuaijun's side is the morning in China. Every day at this time, it was Li Xiuxiu's working time, and the two would meet and chat through YY.

The video was connected, and Li Xiuxiu appeared on the computer screen: "Ah Jun, work is over?"

"That's right. I finished work early today and went to discuss the new script with the screenwriters. Now I'm going to look at the copy and arrange tomorrow's reshoots."

"There's a new script? "500 Days with Summer" hasn't finished filming yet?"

"Suddenly I thought of an American humorous comedy film. I didn't intend to make it myself and hand it over to others. It's just a comedy film purely for passing the time. It has no nutrition and is mainly for making money. What's going on with you? Is it stable?"

"It's all very good, but the excitement of the employees has not passed yet. Now the company's market value is maintained at around 65 billion. As long as the employees get the options, they will become millionaires or multi-millionaires. How did you spend it?" Li Xiuxiu said with a smile.

"It's not good for a listed company. It's easy to cultivate too many nouveau riche. This kind of atmosphere has to be settled slowly." Shao Shuaijun said with a smile. This situation is only temporary. After a while, the employees will find out. Stocks and options are just stocks and options, and they are still different from cash.

Either give up the dominant stocks and choose to cash out, or obediently wait for the dividends at the end of the year, and it will take some time to worry about how to spend them.

After chatting for a while, Li Xiuxiu was going to a meeting, so Shao Shuaijun concentrated on looking at the copy.

It was after eleven o'clock at night that Shao Shuaijun stretched himself and got out of the copy. Remember the shots that will be retaken tomorrow, read the news online, and get ready to go to sleep. Habitually log into Amazon Bookstore to see if he can find some good novels. At this time, he found a novel called "The Hunger Games" from the shelf, and the author was Susan Collins.

The novel tells that after a disaster that swallowed up a large area of ​​land and population, Shi Huiguo was born from the ruins, and established 13 administrative districts, centered on the "capital" built in the Rocky Mountains to implement rule.

Shortly after the establishment of the State of Mercy, the 13 administrative districts responsible for supplying various natural resources and products to the capital rebelled, entering a "dark period" in the history of the State of Mercy. However, the rebellion was quickly quelled by the capital with high technology and superior military strength, and poison gas bombs were dropped to destroy the thirteenth district in order to make an example of others.

In order to punish the administrative districts that launched the rebellion, the capital requires all administrative districts to send a pair of teenagers and girls to the arena to participate in the "Hunger Games" every year. . There are no rules in the game, except that you cannot step out of place and cannibalism within 60 seconds after the start of the game, including killing is not restricted, and the last surviving tribute is the winner.

The novel begins with 16-year-old Katniss... (to be continued...)
