Chapter 83 "Love at First Sight" (1)

After deciding to make a commercial film, Xie Lansheng began to prepare the outline of "Love at First Sight".He had many stories in his mind, and finally chose "Love at First Sight".

Because the prototype of the story had already been formed, it took him almost two weeks to fill in all the information and go to the Film Bureau to apply for review. He was a little excited and a little nervous, always worried that it would need to be revised.

As a result, Lan Sheng didn't expect it at all, and he didn't hand over anything.

Someone from the Film Bureau told him: "Others only submit the outline of the plot, but you need to submit the full text of the script."

"???" Xie Lansheng asked the person who replied, "I...need to submit the full text of the script?"

"Yes, some people submit the full text of the script, and you are included, Director Xie." The other party said firmly, "Otherwise, they cannot be reviewed."

"........."

No way, write it.

Lan Sheng began to use the computer to write the full text with trepidation.He knows that other people's stories can be filmed only if there is no problem with the general content of the story. As for him, every sentence in the movie can be shot only if there is no problem. Naturally, the pressure is very great.

Finally, at the end of February, he handed in the full text of the script "Love at First Sight" with 2 words, and the long wait began.Xie Lansheng only felt that the process of waiting for the trial, the process of waiting for "qualification" was both gentle and cruel.Along the way, there are some romantic and some tragic.

While Xie Lansheng was anxiously waiting for the review results, Xin Ye's Deep Blue Films wanted to produce another film.

However, because I just bought a building of "Jiamei" in a certain plaza, there is only 3500 million left in Shenlan's account, and all of it was invested in a Lunar New Year comedy by a certain director. Don't want to miss out and don't have the funds.Xie Lansheng knew that Xin Ye was optimistic about this film.

Xie Lansheng originally thought that Xinye would invite someone to invest in the senior blue film industry, and exchange the shares of Deep Blue for money, or ask someone to inject part of the capital and pay for it himself-as the person next to his pillow, Xie Lansheng knew very well that Xinye was still a little rich.It's just that if this is the case, Xinye's shareholding in Deep Blue Films will be less.

However, Xin Ye actually took out a loan.It stands to reason that the commercial house that will open the theater has been mortgaged to the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. The Industrial and Commercial Bank of China agreed to provide a maximum mortgage of [-] million yuan. Before he said that he wanted to open a literary theater, the film king of Shenda didn't want to invest his funds in real estate and other things, and devoted himself to producing movies. The office space is rented, and there is no way to pledge it. Deep Blue should not be able to get the money. .

But who knew, Xinye was the first to borrow money from the bank for two movies that hadn't been made yet!

In Hollywood, the film needs to sell the copyright first, and then the film studio can apply for loans from various banks with the contract.Over there, the loan of the film and television company needs the guarantee provided by the insurance company, and the premise of the insurance company is to see the pre-sale contract.But now, Xinye has nothing and can borrow money from the bank.

By March 3th, although the loan had not yet been formally issued, the matter of Shenlan's loan of 14 million yuan had been finalized, and Shenlan and the private bank began to revise the cooperation agreement.In this way, after the two parties signed the agreement, Shenlan could use the agreement to sign a contract with the actors, etc., and the bank would formally lend money after the contract clearly indicated that the film would definitely be made.

This bank is a private bank, and its policies are not very strict. Because the Q2004 performance in 1 was not good, it decided to take this risk. After all, the movies produced by Deep Blue Films have not been compensated so far.

The big director of the new film has a bit of a big mouth.Everyone knows what he said before the private bank made a loan.

Everyone was stunned by Xinye's operation.

The two films that have not yet been filmed can be loaned out? !Such a fake thing can actually be borrowed? !

Everyone sighed, Deep Blue Pictures is too good at playing.

There is also an anecdote from a partner of Bank of China International: In 2000, when Xin Ye was still in the United States, the Internet bubble burst, IT companies went bankrupt, and the entire Silicon Valley was extremely depressed.At that time, a friend of Xinye owned a BtoB (business-to-business) company, and it seemed to be over. However, Xinye came up with a new trick for this friend: to launch a new plan that allows corporate customers to pay annually. At that time, all these online IT services were paid on a monthly basis.Because of the "annual payment" 9% discount and the reduction of accounts payable work, almost half of the companies switched to "annual payment". That friend's company suddenly became more abundant, so it survived the crisis. In 2001, in order to create a gimmick, he publicly said on many occasions: "This idea was given to me by the leading actor of the film "xx" shortlisted for the Academy Awards!"

As soon as the news came out, people in the film and television industry sighed again: You are too good at playing.

…………

By the end of March, the review results of Xie Lansheng's "Love at First Sight" came down.

When Lan Sheng saw the revised opinion, his mind buzzed.

Very very very bad.

There are so many things that need to be changed.

Moreover, the most serious thing is that the review by the Film Bureau believes that the core plot of "Love at First Sight" has problems and needs to be revised.

Xie Lansheng was stunned.

The core plot and climax of this movie need to be revised...?

But, there is no way to change it.

If these are removed, the movie will be completely different. In other words, if it is completely revised according to the opinions, the movie will no longer exist.

Lan Sheng remembered the time when Universal Pictures asked to change "Rooting".If Country Blood Night hadn't happened, "Rooting" would have been powerless.Now, "Love at First Sight" is the same, if not more serious.

Last time he was able to refuse, but this time, he was powerless.powerless.

What will he do next?

Xie Lansheng went home dejectedly with his notebook in hand.

It's evening rush hour on the road.There are more and more cars in Beijing, the whole city seems to be in a frenzy, and impatience is everywhere.The horn was louder than louder, so high-pitched, so sharp, it was disturbing.It seems that everyone has an important date waiting to catch up, can't wait, can't calm down, can't be late.

In this way, it was already 6:[-] when I got home.

After returning home, Xie Lansheng went into the bathroom to take a shower, feeling refreshed, tired and dusty all over his body.

Going downstairs again, Xie Lansheng was surprised to find that Xinye was already cooking.

"...Belle?" Xie Lansheng said, "Did you come back so early?"

"Well," Xin Ye was frying shrimp and eggs, a home-cooked dish, he put the food on the plate and said, "You went to the Film Bureau in the afternoon, and you didn't send a text message when you came out. I'm worried that the result is not good, so come back and have a look."

"..." Xie Lan let out a long sigh, and helped Xin Ye take the plate away, and when Xin Ye came over, he sat upright with his legs crossed, put his hands on his knees, and said, "According to the amendment made by the Film Bureau." , "Love at First Sight" is mediocre."

Xinye raised his eyebrows: "Tell me specifically?"

Xie Lansheng shared the feedback with Xin Yequan, and finally said: "The unique idea has been overthrown, and "Love at First Sight" is meaningless. The big beauty Lu Yiting fell in love with ordinary men at first sight, but she used her sister's name when dating. 'Yizhi'. In the end... If not for this, then what else?"

"Lansheng." Shen Ye was as calm as ever. He crossed his slender fingers without moving his chopsticks, and locked his eyes on Xie Lansheng, saying, "First of all, we need to fight hard. We can try to prove that "Love at First Sight" is good, It can be filmed, it is positive, and its script fully complies with the "Film Management Regulations."

His voice made Xie Lansheng unexpectedly calm.

Yes, Xie Lansheng knew that the leaders of the Film Bureau were not incapable of communication.He can explain and fight for it, but it doesn't necessarily mean he can't shoot it.

But why, when he was alone, he was very pessimistic about the result, but when Xinye was by his side, he saw hope again?

"Secondly, Lan Sheng." Xin Ye continued, "Xie Lansheng's next film must be screened publicly, right?"

Xie Lansheng nodded: "Yes."

"Okay," Xin Ye continued to guide, "Since we are so sure, then everything is relatively easy. There is nothing to be anxious about such a certain thing. Calm down, the situation may not be so bad, it is too early to worry We will do our best and listen to the fate, and strive to get a good result for this "Love at First Sight", at least an acceptable result. We can invite several scholars and even children's education experts to write some analysis and suggestions to prove that it will not affect the audience. , You can also submit similar domestic films, you can also use European and American films of the same type as examples, and you can also..." He said a lot of suggestions.

Regarding Xie Lansheng's matter, Xin Ye never said "you can", but always said "we can".

Then, Xin Ye said: "The worst thing is, let's change to another movie. I know, you have a lot of thoughts in your mind. Take your time, don't think too much, you and I both understand that your next movie will definitely be released in the end. "

"……Um."

After Xinye's analysis, Xie Lansheng really felt better.

Yes, Xie Lansheng thought, for a matter with a certain goal and a certain outcome, there is nothing to be anxious about, and there is nothing to think about too much, just try your best, and the intersection will make people feel confused and anxious.

His energy came back again.

He really likes Xinye.Xinye is rational with sensibility, and he himself is sensual with rationality. Every day in the past eight years has been so complementary and in harmony.

Seeing the change in Xie Lansheng's eyes, Xinye smiled slightly.Xie Lansheng scooped the pork rib soup into a bowl with a ceramic spoon, ate the soup with rice, and said to Xinye, "Xinye, thank you. Hey, I am always thanking you, every day."

"It's all what I should do." Xinye said, touching one of Xie Lansheng's earlobe with his right hand, rubbing, rubbing, his eyes dimmed, and said: "However, if I really thank you... I will be obedient tonight."

Xie Lansheng: "Huh?"

Xinye's gaze slowly fixed on Xie Lansheng's eyes, and he said again: "Because I have to submit the full text of the script... You have been busy for two weeks, and I have endured it for two weeks."

"Ah... ah." After understanding what Xin Ye meant, Xie Lansheng picked up the bowl again, covered his face completely, neither saying yes nor no.

…………

However, although he agreed very reluctantly, at night, Xie Lansheng found that he was still looking forward to it after taking a bath.

He longed for Xinye.

Xie Lansheng wrapped a white towel around his waist, walked out of the bathroom on the third floor, and when he opened the door, he saw Xin Ye waiting outside.Xinye washed in the master bedroom, and also wore a white bath towel around her waist.

Xin Ye smiled, turned Xie Lansheng's shoulders with both hands, pushed him back to the bathroom, and pushed him to a floor-to-ceiling mirror as big as the entire wall, holding Xie Lansheng's waist with both hands, bowed his head and kissed the top of his head. Tape said, "It's done, be good, huh?"

Xie Lansheng pressed Xinye's two hands with ten fingers: "Xinye, don't, don't move around."

"Ah."

Xinye's hand really didn't move, however, just as Xie Lansheng felt relieved, he felt something stuck between his two thighs...! !

He said: "Hey!!"

Xin Ye just stared at the mirror, and pinched Xie Lansheng's small pointed chin with his hand, letting him look at it too.

Because..., Xie Lansheng was gradually tempted.He only saw that the white towel around him was being lifted rhythmically.

Every time the other party made this movement, he felt that he was going to be lifted up, like an old witch riding a big broom in cartoons.After a while, Xie Lansheng instinctively stood on his toes, and Xin Ye put his arms around his waist and carried him.

Xinye's panting gradually became heavier, and then, with a sudden pull with his right hand, he threw Xie Lansheng's white towel into the corner.

"Hello!!" The visual impact became too strong, and Xie Lansheng instinctively closed his eyes, because he was being hugged around his waist and couldn't move.

Xin Ye pinched his chin again: "Be good, huh?"

"..."

Xie Lansheng thought, this is so fucking....

All he could see was that he himself had long been...but Xin Ye was completely covered behind him, only that...was faintly visible to him, he could be seen for a while, and then hid for a while.

After a while, Xinye seemed satisfied, and asked Xie Lansheng to stand up straight with his knees together. He didn't move any more, but his hand gently touched Xie Lansheng's... Seven or eight minutes later, Xie Lansheng's breath was short of breath, and he landed cleanly The mirror... was.

Xinye picked up Xie Lansheng again and walked to the master bedroom.

Xie Lansheng's skin was very fair, and on the black silk sheets, it was pure and gorgeous.

They also came back on the 10,000+ Daiwa massage chair.The massage chair has a vibrating function. After Xin Ye covered the opponent, he turned on the lowest gear, but Xie Lansheng's tune changed, and his crying voice was broken.

In the end, after tossing and tossing for a whole night, Xie Lansheng...five times, not counting the last time.

Xie Lansheng is more sensitive, maybe because of the growing environment where Xinye has many tricks, Xie Lansheng often feels ashamed, but after each round, Xinye will always hug him, gently kiss his eyebrows, nose bridge, and lips, I cherish it so much that Xie Lansheng feels it is the ultimate experience from body to heart.

…………

From the second day after receiving the censorship comments, Xie Lansheng concentrated on writing supplementary materials for the Film Bureau.During this process, Xin Ye gave a lot of advice.

"Love at First Sight" has love and suspense.

The movie heroine Lu Yiting fell in love with an ordinary man at first sight, but she used her twin sister's name when dating.

Xie Lansheng asked Professor Nortel to write some supporting materials, and also asked education experts to write some objective analysis, saying that this setting should have a positive effect on the audience, not a negative effect.

He also found two similar domestic films in the 90s, and also found Hollywood films of the same type, and printed out the audience's comments, media introductions, and film critics' analysis to explain to the film bureau that "Love at First Sight" is not true. questionable.

Finally, he went out to do a survey and asked parents to express their views. The DV was not edited for a second, it was original, and the parents generally felt that the content was good.

After all the materials were prepared, Xie Lansheng made an appointment for a face-to-face conversation with the Film Bureau, intending to work hard to get it.

He was very nervous again.

He is going to stand trial again, but everything is unpredictable.

The author has something to say:

Lou Ye said that a few years ago, others handed in the outline of the script, but they handed in the full text of the script... Now I don't know.

After checking, Huayi should be the first to get a loan for the movie that was not made.Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei are masters at playing capital.

Use your legs.
