Disaster Artist

Chapter 253: grand blueprint

Ji Xu and Lu Qian have been thinking about the future plans of Blue Whale Pictures, and the appearance of Jiang Haowen has given Lu Qian inspiration.

One is the "Human Clearance Program" series.

One is the Hongjiaban series, built around Hongjiaban as the core, and Lu Qian also had two ideas.

The first is "The Raid 2".

In Lu Qian's time and space, "Raid" also filmed a sequel, but after the story of the sequel was more complex and grand, not only did the multi-line narrative fail to show a more profound reflection on the larger world, but it also dragged down the narrative rhythm of the movie and lost it. The advantages of the first part of the series.

So, is the second one good? It looks good, but it's not as stunning as the first one.

In Lu Qian's view, if the second part is filmed, there is no need to complicate things too much, because the keynote of the whole movie is fast, accurate, and ruthless fighting.

The three-act structure of the second script, then, could be simpler.

Before, Lu Qian had been thinking about the script of "Raid 2", but completely abandoned the original script in his own time and space and created a brand new story from scratch. Lu Qian still lacked some inspiration and did not start writing until now.

Maybe the story can unfold like this.

The first act is a continuation of the story of the first part. Artest returns to the police force to return to life, but the corrupt bosses in the team find that Ah He is not so easy to control, and Artest has also discovered their secret, so they decided to " Erasing" Artest's existence will not only eliminate hidden dangers, but also give Ah He a shock.

So, they sent Artest on a mortal mission.

In the second act, Artest performs the task, continuing the fighting style of the first part and stimulating adrenaline.

In the third act, Artest escaped from the dead, and then decided to fight back and wiped out all the rotten high-level officers of the police force.

The final battle is approaching, and all the carrion headed by Reza are finally wiped out, but Artest suddenly discovers that Hong Feng, who has always been considered innocent and incorrupt, seems to have come together with Ah He.

When Artest and Ah He meet again, they are no longer brothers after all, but stand on opposite ends of justice and evil.

Is this the beginning of another corruption, or a cycle of fate?

This is where the series of films comes to an end.

The whole story can be modified and polished, but Lu Qian believes that such a clean and concise story can give full play to the characteristics of "raid":

Artest represents pure cleanliness and justice, but real life is complicated, right and wrong have never been so simple.

This not only fits Guan Zhou's temperament and characteristics, but also maximizes the fighting style of real knife, real gun, punch to flesh, and on the basis of the first part, it further shows the complexity and richness of the real world.

The second is a brand new project, "Fast Pursuit".

In Lu Qian's time and space, "Fast Pursuit" can be said to be born out of nowhere, with a good reputation and box office, and it is very rare that the second and third parts of the series gradually show an underground world, surrounding the Intercontinental Hotel as a The core dark industry is presented to the audience, just like the dark web, mysterious and dangerous.

Keanu Reeves, who had been silent for many years, also turned over with this series, and his career glowed with a second spring.

But for Lu Qian, "Fast Pursuit" can be better, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

The biggest regret of "Fast Pursuit" is that Keanu's skills are not neat enough, and the editing is not able to help. Instead, the fight scenes with fists and flesh reveal many shortcomings, which also greatly affects the look and feel.

In addition, it can be seen that the main creative team did not expect such a sensational success of "Fast Pursuit", so the whole setting seemed a little rushed. The concept of "Intercontinental Hotel" was introduced in the second and third parts of the series. It was slowly revealed, but there were a lot of flaws, and there was a feeling of guilt the more I talked about it.

Switching to this time and space, with Lu Qian to start the project, the situation is naturally different.

Hong Jiaban is undoubtedly Lu Qian's greatest confidence, they can really create a feast of retro action movies with real swords and guns; and then perfect the concept of "Intercontinental Hotel" in the follow-up series, showing a mysterious and wonderful underground world , showing eighteen different fighting styles of martial arts.

Lu Qian believes that Guan Zhou and Hong Jiaban can inject unique vitality into the "Fast Pursuit" project.

At the beginning, Gate Pictures started with thriller/horror movies. One of the advantages is that the production cost is relatively controllable, which is very important for small companies that lack capital costs.

Now, Blue Whale Pictures hopes to open up the situation with action movies, and it also has such advantages. Whether it is the "Human Removal Plan" or "Quick Pursuit", these are works whose production cost can be controlled below 10 million yuan. ——There may be some floating deviations according to the abilities and preferences of different directors.

However, if Blue Whale Pictures can cooperate with Damen Pictures to develop two series, the risk can be further reduced, and it is ensured that Blue Whale Pictures can carry out multiple projects one after another in a short period of time, so that the company can really operate. It is a win-win cooperation.

Lu Qian believes that both Ji Xu and Xiu Zhong should be able to complete the task.

However, there is a problem -

Lu Qian, there is no clone.

As a director, Lu Qian has no way to continuously output creations like a perpetual motion machine; similarly, as a screenwriter, Lu Qian has no way to complete such a huge creative work.

Don't think that writing a script is very simple. In a mature film industry, script writing can be subdivided into three parts:

Frame creation, character creation, line creation.

The three parts are independent of each other and cooperate with each other, sometimes completed by three screenwriters alone, and sometimes by one screenwriter.

But the only certainty is that none of the three parts is easy. It is normal to create a script from three months to a year, and it may even take longer.

Lu Qian can complete the frame creation, but the trivial work of character creation and line creation needs to be done by someone. Otherwise, there are too many projects in the series of "Human Removal Plan", "Raid 2", and "Fast Pursuit", even if Lu Qian Incarnated as a spider, I am afraid that I can't accomplish so much work.

What's more, these are not works that Lu Qian wants to shoot as a director.

Therefore, Lu Qian needs to cooperate with screenwriters, and they will complete the work~www.novelmt.com~ But how can excellent screenwriters be so easy to find?

It is precisely because of this that Ji Xu needs to be busy. While negotiating with Damen Films, Blue Whale Films also needs to prepare by himself.

Moreover, don't forget, if Lu Qian is not in charge of the guide tube, who will?

Lu Qian played a crucial role in the success of "Unfriending" and "Raid". It can even be said that without Lu Qian, there would be no current situation, but now the director's position needs to find a successor. It is a crucial first step to opening the situation.

It is foreseeable that Ji Xu and Xiu Zhong will be very busy in the future, and everything should not be missed.

Therefore, Ji Xu just hung up the phone, and immediately got up and washed, and immediately got busy.

So, what about Lu Qian?
