Chapter 193: Screenwriter's Dawn

It took 16 days for Huang Baiming to modify the script of "Owl and Dumbo" to Yin Jun's satisfaction. ?
This includes plot scripts and sub-screen scripts.
The plot script is relatively easy, but when it comes to the sub-scene script, Huang Baiming is a little uncomfortable.
For the filming of Xiangjiang people, they mostly like to let actors and directors freely swing. If they are restrained too much, they will feel awkward.
Huang Baiming also specifically asked Yin Jun why he should do this in a glance.
Yin Jun told him to make a good script. The split-screen script is to help the directors and actors better understand their roles and plots, not something that binds them. They can do it on the basis of not violating the center point. , But can not deviate from the main line.
Otherwise, the movie will look very chaotic, making it uninteresting to watch.
Whether a movie will look good or not, is actually driven by the storyline.
Once the plot is messy, all are random performances, then this movie will make many people look inexplicably, and then go out and feel that they are fooled.
This is how the Hong Kong movie flocked to Hong Kong after the box office market in the mainland surged 2o1o years ago.
If they take out the movies from the 8o-9o era, they will definitely sell very hot, but after two or thirty years, they still have n’t grown a little bit, but they have become more sincere, which makes people feel uncomfortable. .
Hard work, hard work, self-righteousness, boredom ... etc. Are all mature Mainland fans who have rated most Xiangjiang movies.
The deepest reason is that they don't have a good story at all, they just make a movie for granted, and of course they won't be bought.
A typical example is that Yin Juncai recruited Huang Baiming who helped write the script.
For a few years, he came to a Chinese New Year film of the same type every year. Not only did the audience in the mainland vomit, but the locals in Xiangjiang also shouted.
You must have sincerity in doing things. If there is no sincerity, it will naturally be abandoned by the market.
Now Yin Jun asked Huang Baiming to write the split-screen script of "Owl and Dumbo Elephant", just want him to understand the whole story, so that with a complete story system, no matter how the director and actors swing, they will not come out of the frame Will fall apart.
Huang Baiming listened to Yin Jun's explanation. Although he didn't say anything, Yin Jun knew that he thought it was too troublesome.
It's just that Huang Baiming is now following Yin Jun. He certainly won't disobey Yin Jun's meaning.
But Huang Baiming will definitely not know how powerful the subtle power is.
In the future, when countless scripts written by Yin Jun in Xiangjiang made the movie a big hit, he would learn Yin Jun and learn this successful experience.
After writing "Owl and Dumbo", Yin Jun turned to Huang Baiming for a summary of the script of "The Lost Family".
Huang Baiming is also a person who can endure hardships. There is no rest, so there is another script to fill in the expansion. He has no complaints, and took back to work.
Hong Jinbao, who had waited long enough to wear it, watched Yin Jun take the book over and looked at it for a day, and a cash check of 10 million was handed over by his hands. The formal contract says that Yin Jun can enjoy 1o% of the profit from Owl and Dumbo.
Of course, this 1% profit margin is limited to the part that Hong Jinbao can get.
Hong Jinbao's vision is very good. Although he also has his own limitations, his ability is definitely counted among the stars of the same era.
As the saying goes, it ’s time for heroes to reveal their true colors.
Hong Jinbao can also play a role on the screen in 2o2o, and his acting career has continued for nearly 5o years, which is a remarkable performance.
Therefore, as soon as he saw Yin Jun's script, he knew that it was very distinctive and very interesting.
It's like tailor-made for him and Mecca.
Urban stories are close to life.
The thief plot can't help but explore.
Suspense setting makes people want to think further.
The thrilling fight will make people see it heartily.
Love stories can also make people feel good.
Abandoning evil and doing good is in line with the eternal theme.
...
The addition of such links is not a random stuffing, but a reasonably arranged and brilliant arrangement. This is a test of the skill of a screenwriter.
Hong Jinbao pays for it. If he does it, he can at least make a difference in the funny aspect. In the plot arrangement, it must be done in general. Especially compared with Yin Jun's script, it is simply weak.
Even a person like Mecca who did not approve of buying high-priced scripts, after reading the script several times and splitting the screenplay repeatedly, couldn't help but say to Hong Jinbao, "If Jun can't come forward in the future, it's a godless eye. "
Hong Jinbao got the script here, and with their Xiangjiang people's work style, they must have prepared the crew in three to five days, and usually filmed the film in one month.
With Yin Jun's good script, Hong Jinbao and Mecca must be well polished, but it won't be released in two months at most.
Hong Jinbao was ready to make a movie with great fanfare, but Wu Siyuan never got the news from Yin Jun. While feeling a little panicked, he simply invited Yin Jun to attend a friend's party. By the way, he wanted to urge it.
Originally, Yin Jun did not like to participate in any dinner party, but Wu Siyuan pleaded, and Yin Jun couldn't get rid of it, so he arrived at the Hongde Restaurant where he had a good banquet according to the agreed time.
Before 37 years, most of the restaurants in Xiangjiang were migrated from eastern Guangdong. Later, as the anti-Japanese war progressed, many well-known restaurants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang came to the relatively stable Xiangjiang in order to escape the war.
Therefore, the restaurant of Xiangjiang is basically the same as that of Baodao, and many centuries-old shops have opened their branches here and gained a good reputation and wealth.
Hongde Restaurant is not well-known in eastern Guangdong, but their main Shunde dishes are still good, light and delicious, which has attracted many guests.
When Yin Jun arrived, he saw the man with a curly head and a thick beard on the square face at first glance. Holding his arm, he was a beautiful girl with a big mouth, but she was a little thin.
Next to him was a normal-looking spectacled man, about twenty years old.
"Come on, Jun Shao, let me introduce you." Wu Siyuan on the side stood up with them and said with a smile: "These two are Xu Ke and Shi Lansheng. Have you ever heard their names? Wei is also the screenwriter of Jia Shi, called Shu Qi! "
"Hello!"
Yin Jun reached out and shook hands with them. After everyone greeted each other enthusiastically, they sat down.
Originally Shu Qi was still a bit worried about Yin Jun's arrogance and rebelliousness, but he did not expect him to be such a gentle and even shy young man.
Shu Qi sighed in his heart. It was really unsightly. Who would know that such a 16-year-old boy had beaten the world invincible, making all the screenwriters of Xiangjiang fall in front of him?
However, everyone will thank Yin Jun somewhat.
Before Yin Jun, the screenwriter was worthless. The status of the screenwriter in the TV station was very low. Everyone thought that the TV drama's success was the credit of the producer and the credit of the protagonist. The script of the screenwriter is also the same thing.
The same is true for movies.
As a result, after Yin Jun turned out, Jia Shi was a crumbling TV station, which was really supported by his two scripts-"Bao Qingtian" and "Wulin Gaiden", sweeping all Asian TV stations, even in Japan. Han is highly sought after.
Others are more than that.
Before writing "Bao Qingtian" and "Wulin Gaiden", a "Revealing the Wrong Seven Days", let the former movie star once again shine, breaking the Xiangjiang box office record, not to mention, the box office in Asia also reached more than 6ooo million, Second only to Li Xiaolong, shocked all Xiangjiang filmmakers.
Immediately after this, Yin Jun adapted a "Chu Liuxiang" to Li's TV station, which was originally famous only on Baodao, after Yin Jun's polishing and screenwriting, and then through the interpretation of Zheng Shaoqiu and Zhao Yazhi. Zi created a crazy record that the average ratings of broadcast TV stations in Asia that neither "Bao Qingtian" and "Wulin Gaiden" can create have exceeded 8o%!
So that the original author of "Chu Liuxiang" Gu Long can't help saying that people only know that Chu Xiangshuai is not mentioned by Zheng Shaoqiu, and think that "Chu Liuxiang" is Yin Jun's work, which is really depressing.
Not only is the audience rating impressive, but Yin Jun ’s income is even more impressive.
In the past, when I made a TV drama movie, I only heard that it was done well, and the box office and ratings were high. The TV station gave red envelopes to actors and producers. I never heard of red envelopes for screenwriters.
The screenwriter not only earns very little income, but also has a very abnormal work schedule. If the task comes, usually the task must be completed, then it is not a night and night, but an all-nighter.
Everyone knows that staying up late is not good.
But for this job, which screenwriter dare to say that he did not stay overnight? Oh, I am afraid that only Yin Jun has not stayed up late to write.
With so much effort and so little income, screenwriters have always been very depressed.
But Yin Jun is different. He can earn hundreds of thousands or even millions in a single script. After a few TV series and movies, it seems to earn more than any star!
This has brought bright power to the writers, let everyone know, in fact, the screenwriter can be outstanding, can make a lot of money.
The suffering they are suffering now is only because they are not as good as Yin Jun. As long as they can learn from Yin Jun and continue to improve themselves, they will certainly be able to succeed!
Huang Baiming thought that way, so once he had the opportunity to accept Yin Jun's guidance, he said nothing and quit his job to follow Yin Jun.
Moreover, the benefits that Yin Jun brings to the writers are not only for them to see the bright future, but also substantial benefits.
For example, the three major TV stations gradually improved their treatment of screenwriters, and their average salary increase was above 3o%, hoping to find a person with strength close to Yin Jun among themselves, so that they can also do well. The script comes.
The same goes for film companies.
The company that Shao is so stingy is now also seeking good scripts everywhere at a high price, causing many talented editors to throw in the past.
Shu Qi is a screenwriter in Jiayi TV.
He has a good imagination. After several years of fighting with Jiashi, he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility this year. As the creator of "Celebrity History", he wrote this TV series that is of great significance to Jiashi.
What Jiashi thought at the time was whether he could fight a beautiful battle and rely on "Celebrity Love History" to pick up the girders.
Shu Qi and a group of friends are all furious, trying to save their TV station from crisis.
What I didn't expect was that I encountered the wireless annual drama "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji" as soon as I appeared, and the TV series performed by Zheng Shaoqiu, Wang Minquan, Zhao Yazhi and other superstars were chased and beat, and the ratings were almost invincible.
If it were n’t for Yin Jun ’s
Bao Qingtian
, the history of celebrity love would be the last column of shame, pinned on the record of Jiashi, a short-lived TV station.
At first Shu Qi was not convinced. He didn't think "Bao Qingtian" was so good.
But watching "Bao Qingtian" beat "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji" to the waist, and created such good ratings and copyright income in foreign ports, Shu Qi knew how big the gap between him and Yin Jun-Xiangjiang Blind people will not blind blind audiences in other countries that have affected hundreds of millions of people.
Then there is "Wulin Gaiden". Shu Qi is totally inattentive to such a playful TV drama series, and thinks that Yin Jun is completely nonsense and belongs to the person who is smug when he succeeds.
At first, the ratings of Jiashi seemed to confirm Shu Qi's view.
But what he did not expect was that within a week, "Wulin Gaiden" suddenly exploded, leaping forward all the way, beating the heroes at 7 o'clock in one breath, and getting a unique rating.
Similarly, in the ratings and buyouts of foreign ports, "Wulin Gaiden" is no less inferior to "Bao Qingtian", and even in the minds of young people, "Bao Qingtian" is not as good as "Wulin Gaiden"- This can be seen from the scenery of the stars in "Wulin Gaiden".
Whether it is Lao Bai, Tong Xiangyu, Xiucai, Guo Furong, Wushuang Shimei and Mo Damo, they are very popular with advertisers. Even the advertising cost of Zhu Wushuang, who is not the protagonist, is higher than Bao Qingtian. Dumbfounded!
And a large group of celebrities created through "Wulin Gaiden" also embarked on their own star journey, which made countless unsatisfactory actors have followed Yin Jun.
If it were n’t for Yin Jun being too hard to come by, and very low-key, he rarely attended any private dining room, maybe there would have been beautiful women willing to devote themselves, so as to gain the opportunity to make a place.
Through the success of Yin Jun these two times, Shu Qi was already convinced by Yin Jun.
As for the later "Chu Liuxiang" was amazing, Shu Qi was not surprised.
Even everyone thinks that Yin Jun's success is normal, and he is not normal unless he succeeds.
With such a change in thought, Shu Qi now admires Yin Jun very much. Today, a good friend Xu Ke said that he would have dinner with Yin Jun. He followed him with a shameless face and just wanted to meet Yin Jun.
Among the people present, Wu Siyuan is the boss of the film company, Xu Ke is the cutting-edge producer of the famous TV series, and Shi Lansheng is also the producer of "Millionaire", not to mention Yin Jun, a genius screenwriter.
There is only the remaining Shu Qi, who is very influential.
However, Yin Jun did not despise him for this. Instead, after sitting down, he exchanged some views on the form and method of the screenwriter, and explained some of Shu Qi's problems in detail.
Xu Ke was very satisfied when he looked at it. Yin Jun ’s approachable attitude shows that he is a gentle gentleman as rumored, and not as impetuous as ordinary Xiangjiang people.
Xu Ke came from Vietnam, and he did not have a deep sense of Xiangjiang. On the contrary, he felt more intimate towards people from the mainland.
Shi Lansheng looked at Yin Jun and Shu Qi with a smile. She had a good relationship with Yin Jun. She had discussed the production plan of "Millionaire" several times. She is also the person who knows Yin Jun best and knows the character of Yin Jun. That's good.
Wu Siyuan was anxious in his heart, because Yin Jun didn't talk to him about the latest developments in the script.
These people don't know. In fact, among them, the most unknown young man in glasses is the most famous person in academia.
He has served as the founder and principal of the Xiangjiang Golden Award, and the dean of the Academy of Film and Television of the Xiangjiang Academy of Performing Arts. His reputation in the Xiangjiang performing arts circle is very high.
If he wants to promote which actor, then in terms of human sentiment, he already has an advantage.
But from beginning to end, I have not heard of any acts of favoritism committed by the father of the Golden Award.
However, with the decline of the Xiangjiang movie, the Golden Award has become a tasteless taste. It is not as good as the Golden Horse Award of Treasure Island. This is probably the beginning of its establishment. Shu Qi never thought of it?
In history, Shu Qi will start the evaluation root of the Xiangjiang Golden Award next year-"Film Biweekly".
In another three years, the "Film Biweekly" will start to create the Xiangjiang Golden Award, and the first award will be given to ~ EbookFREE.me ~ In another year or two, with the continuous prosperity of Xiangjiang movies, the influence will continue With the expansion, the Xiangjiang Golden Image Award has continuously expanded its influence, and it has become the first award in the Chinese film industry.
It is a pity that the Xiangjiang Golden Award is too narrow, and the evaluation object of the award is placed in Xiangjiang, which has only a population of more than 50 million. What good and competitive works can appear in this way?
Only in the ten or so years when Xiangjiang ’s movies are abnormally prosperous, the Golden Awards have a little to watch. After that, Xiangjiang will have 20 or 30 movies released in a year, and the selected ones are all garbage. What else does the Golden Awards have? Look, what authority is there?
Although in the end, Xiangjiang's films were also invested in the mainland, but compared with hundreds of movies released in the mainland and hundreds of excellent works appearing in the mainland, the base of Xiangjiang's judgment is almost the same as that of children.
Yin Jun has clear steps for his future career plan.
Regarding this golden award, Yin Jun has long regarded it as something in his pocket.
Even if he couldn't keep up with the founding of "Film Biweekly", before 82 years, Yin Jun's influence will definitely allow him to give the golden prize to the income in advance.
The Shu Qi in front of him, in Yin Jun's heart, is actually the most trusted leader of the Golden Award.
However, it is said that Shu Qi is very stubborn and thinks that the Xiangjiang Awards should be Xiangjiang's films to be eligible to participate in the evaluation. This is also an important reason why the Xiangjiang Awards were later excluded from mainstream movies in China.
If this is the case, Yin Jun will not hesitate to let Shu Qi go away and choose a new manager for the gold award.
For example, that cute little fat man Wen Jun is a good candidate! (To be continued.)
