Disaster Artist

The latest website: "Shi Wenxun hand-picked you."

Yu Shao used the most concise and direct words to complete the summary and stated the key points.

Lu Qian's eyebrows rose slightly.

"You mean, Streamer Pictures wants me to make superhero movies?"

"Haha why? Do they have any wrong understanding of superhero movies?"

Lu Qian smiled brightly and was very happy. In fact, the main colors of his three works so far are relatively dark, and the two commercial films both reveal a rough and dirty smell of blood, which is indeed very different from the style of superhero movies. Far.

Lu Qian couldn't imagine himself directing a superhero movie standing behind the camera.

But Yu Shao didn't think so.

"Under Shi Wenxun's leadership, they hope that superhero movies are not just popcorn to entertain the public, but to think behind stylized images, think about human nature, think about good and evil, think about philosophy, and so on."

"Obviously, Shi Wenxun sees such sharpness in your work."

Seriously think about it, it is true, it starts from the time of "unfriending".

"Shi Wenxun is the chief producer, but it is impossible for him to do all the filming of the film alone. He needs other directors to join in, so he has been selecting directors."

"He wants you to direct Cyborg or Aquaman one-man movies."

"Actually, it's not surprising that Cyborg is a personal tragedy, and Aquaman is burdened with hatred between different races. They have a lot of dark things to dig out of."

Lu Qian was very surprised. Even the goal of the one-man movie has already been conceived, which means that Shi Wenxun must have thought about it carefully.

but--

"Brother Yu, inside information, but you inquired so much?"

The market competition between Streamer Films and Magic Films has become intensified, and their every move may change the market structure, not only those in the industry, but also all other large film companies.

Naturally, inside information needs to be kept highly confidential, how can it be easily leaked?

Yu Shao's perspective is slightly different, "Some of them are from me; some of them are deliberately released by them, and they also want to test the reaction of the industry."

"On the one hand, they took the initiative to put aside their past grievances and grievances to find cooperation with you. They also definitely want to try to see the water temperature. If it is too shameful, they will directly deny the rumors.

"On the other hand is the reaction of people in the industry, see if there are more pros or cons, and how the superhero fanatics think about it, and try the market trend."

"Director, I can confirm that Shi Wenxun has indeed locked a list of directors, and there are ten candidates on it, including your name."

Lu Qian didn't answer, because the amount of information was a bit large, which was more impactful than Dong Ruixian's personal visit to the Windy City to wait for the rabbit.

Thoughts, in a circle in my mind, keenly grasped a key.

"Is this time point chosen because of the box office performance of 'Quick Hunt'?"

Yu Shao chuckled softly, "Director, if you are always so sharp, my work will be difficult to carry out."

This confirmed Lu Qian's conjecture.

"They've been discussing it for several months, but it's clear that Streamer Films still has opinions on you. Anyway, there are so many directors in Lanchuan, so it's not your fault."

"But Shi Wenxun is very insistent."

"You also know that after nearly two years of back-and-forth tug-of-war and discussions, the streamer film industry determined Shi Wenxun's position and gave him a lot of power. They really have high hopes for the entire superhero project, so they don't want to take it lightly. Change Shi Wenxun's choice."

"After a few months of tug of war, until now, a turning point has come."

Although Yu Shao said it lightly, Lu Qian was able to capture meaningful details from his words, grasped a possibility keenly in his mind, and blurted out:

"The 'Lu Qian content' they were talking about wasn't the one who was behind the scenes, right?"

Otherwise, how could the success of "Unfriend 2" and "Quick Pursuit" always be linked to him, the man behind the scenes?

People in the industry don't care, they have a scale in their hearts; but the general public really doesn't care who wrote the script and who the producer is.

Yu Shao was noncommittal and said with a smile, "Director, we don't need to pursue those details. All in all, the current situation is that Streamer Films has made an appointment to meet and see how things will develop."

"Or, director, do you want to refuse directly?"

Yu Shao was a little confused about Lu Qian's attitude.

From the agent's point of view, although there have been conflicts between Lu Qian and Liuguang Films, but now that Liuguang Films is willing to bow their heads and cooperate, the situation has been reversed, so there is absolutely no need to push out the door-to-door opportunity.

However, such a view is too rational and too objective, more or less with the mentality of the supremacy of interests, but does not take into account the feelings of the parties.

At the beginning, Lu Qian and Liuguang Films terminated the contract and swept out of the house directly; and they were suppressed and encircled for a long time. If it wasn't for "unfriending" and killing a **** path, I am afraid that there would be no Lu Qian now.

Yu Shao had never experienced it, so naturally he had no way of knowing what Lu Qian had experienced.

But if Yu Shao knew that the so-called "termination of the contract" was the result of Lu Qian's careful planning, I'm afraid he would be able to understand Lu Qian's mentality at this moment.

"Objectively speaking, I have no interest in superhero movies. It's not that I don't like superhero movies, but I know the difficulties of shooting and producing genre movies, and I don't think I'm suitable to be a director."

Yu Shao was very surprised, "Director, are you lacking confidence in yourself?"

Lu Qian laughed outright, "No, this is called positioning yourself accurately. Knowing your strengths, you must also know your weaknesses."

"However, I think that we can meet and talk about it, and there is no need to deny it before it happens."

"What's more, how could I easily miss the opportunity to humiliate the streamer film industry?"

Hearing Lu Qian's understated words, Yu Shao had goose bumps on his back, and he couldn't help shivering. Although he didn't speak, the brief silence already revealed his surprise.

"Hahaha."

Lu Qian's cheerful laughter came from the other side of the telephone receiver.

"Don't worry~www.novelmt.com~ Brother Yu, I don't eat people."

Yu Shao couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, "Director, I'm timid and can't stand being scared."

Lu Qian's mood rose, "Don't worry, the relationship between me and Liuguang Pictures is already tense, even if I really offend them, it will not be because of a meeting or a rejection."

"Obviously, our relationship has long since transcended these children's games."

Yu Shao swore that he heard a murderous look from Lu Qian's words, and he couldn't help shivering, but after hanging up the phone, he came back and scolded himself that he had never seen the world, even the director was not afraid. , why should he hold back——

Don't forget that when Yu Shao found Lu Qian three times in the cottage and recommended himself to be an agent, it was because he saw an opportunity in Lu Qian. He hoped that Lu Qian could be a turning point for him to open up a new situation in his career. Now that his wish has come true, he should seize the opportunity. Just stay.

Turning his head and looking out the window, the field of vision is vast, as if the entire sky has been opened.
