Chapter 1126 "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard"

Yu Hai, a martial arts coach in the mainland, is not only very famous in the martial arts circle in the mainland, but also has a certain reputation in some overseas kung fu circles.

Because in the 1950s and 1960s, he led the team to visit many countries on behalf of the national martial arts team, and also accompanied the leaders of some countries to visit some countries.

This script was adapted by Li Lianjie based on some things he had experienced and some things he had heard.

"Ha, I didn't expect you to write a script!" Wu Cheng said with a smile while looking through the script.

Li Lianjie said awkwardly: "That, the person who wrote the writing is not me, the writer's name is on the script. I just tell him the stories that Coach Yu said when he was chatting with us, and then he will write and adapt it."

Wu Cheng nodded and looked at the author's name. Unfortunately, this was a very unfamiliar name to him and he never seemed to have an impression.

But this is normal. There are countless screenwriters in the mainland and Xiangjiang industry. Not every screenwriter can be famous, and it is normal not to know. However, he has no impression of a screenwriter who can be written by Li Lianjie, which surprised him a little.

But he didn't think much about it and continued to read the script. Not long after, he finished reading the script.

After thinking for a while, Wu Chengcai said, "The script is not good, but it cannot be said to be bad. It is obvious that the traces of forced integration are a bit obvious."

"He has never been a screenwriter before, he was written by the newspaper," Li Lianjie explained.

Wu Cheng nodded, no wonder he didn't feel familiar with the name at all.

Then, he said: "Although there are some big scenes involved, the plot involves some unfriendly aspects of our big brother next door. During this period, our relationship with them is relatively cold, but both sides are trying to ease the relationship..."

The background of this script is placed in the home of the big brother next door in the mainland, so he said so.

Li Lianjie opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, because he didn't expect this at all.

Wu Cheng said again: "And to be honest, the audience in North America may not be able to like it. What's more, the script was in the 1950s and 1960s. This era is too old. Although some people may be interested in this, I believe some young people will not be interested in this. If I were an audience, this kind of film would generally be skipped, especially when I took my girlfriend to date, I would definitely not choose this kind of film."

After hearing this, Li Lianjie opened his mouth again, and once again speechless.

"In addition, the script involves arms and poison. With the relationship between us and the other side, it is difficult to make scenes on the spot, which is also one of the problems."

Afterwards, Wu Cheng asked a few more questions, and then Li Lianjie's confidence was gone.

Seeing Li Lianjie's wry smile, Wu Cheng reached out and patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't be bitter. The story in this script is actually OK. Just change the era and country. However, I actually don't recommend that you make this movie because the scene scheduling involved requires a director who can control the big scenes. And such a big director is not easy to find. And the investment in this movie will definitely not be small, and the future box office prospects are difficult to estimate, and the risks are still relatively large."

"What if the scene is changed to a smaller size?" Li Lianjie asked.

Wu Cheng shook his head and said, "If there was no such big scene, as you said, it would seem too petty. After all, there are few emotional scenes involved, and basically they are fighting scenes."

After pausing, he continued: "In fact, this story can be changed. For example, the times can be placed in the modern era, the protagonist or the bodyguard type can be set as Zhongnanhai bodyguard, giving people a very mysterious and powerful feeling. The region can be placed in the Xiangjiang side, and the protected object can also be transformed from a national leader into a beauty. Do you think, if the audience sees this, will they think about whether this bodyguard and the protected object will have any feelings?"

That's right, the story Wu Cheng fooled is the plot in "The Bodyguard of Zhongnanhai".

When Li Lianjie heard this, he was shocked and said, "But in this way, the feeling seems to have changed all the time! Why does it sound a bit like an emotional drama, not an action drama!"

Wu Cheng laughed and said, "It's very simple. Because this kind of modification is low, the risk is not too much, and it is not difficult to recover the cost; the second is that shooting is easy, because the era is modern, so there is no need to go around to find special scenes or arrange any special venues; thirdly, although the story is simple, compared with the previous story, I think this story can attract young audiences more. You must know that young audiences are the main subjects of the movie."

Wu Cheng thought for a while and said, "Of course, you can also set the heroine as the daughter of the leader of a foreign country. The leader of that country went to China, but his daughter wanted to travel to Xiangjiang, and then as a bodyguard in Zhongnanhai, she was appointed by the senior management to accompany her to protect..."

"You think that China and the United States have established diplomatic relations. Last year, the president of the United States came to visit our country. Therefore, this heroine can be set as the daughter of a entourage member in the visiting group! I believe that such a story will be somewhat interested in the audience in the United States. Especially the conflict caused by the differences between the East and West between China and the United States will definitely have many comedic effects. At the same time, this is also a good way to show Westerners the Eastern and Western cultural thoughts. Don't you think this is very worth trying?"

This has already raised the level of thought, so Li Lianjie naturally will not regard this story as a simple emotional drama between men and women.

However, it is not an easy thing to express the conflict between the East and the West and then present the Eastern culture to foreign audiences.

Of course, compared with the script of "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard" in this place, he has changed it to a little beyond recognition by him.

Li Lianjie said embarrassedly: "I really hope Brother Cheng can direct this movie himself!"

He believed that if the movie was directed by Wu Cheng, another movie like "The Black Man" might be released. Moreover, if directed by him, the box office will be greater in Europe and the United States. Because he has such a box office appeal.

Wu Cheng waved his hand and said, "I can't do it, you know, I don't have that time."

Although I don’t know what kind of itinerary Wu Cheng will be in the future, no one will believe this, even if he is often lazy.

After pausing, he said again: "Actually, I have another story, which is about killers. If you are interested, you can also use this story to show the differences between Eastern and Western cultures."

Li Lianjie smiled and said, "Okay, Brother Cheng, I know there are many stories in your head, but don't tell them first. I haven't digested the story you just now. I'm afraid that after I listen to another story, I'll just spell the two stories. I'd better think about this story first, and then find someone to write the script before talking about it!"

Wu Cheng smiled and did not continue to fool him, but changed the topic, "I heard that your senior sister went to North America to study media management?"

Li Lianjie scratched his head again, smiled a little silly, and said, "She said that Sister Zhi told her that women must have their own career. So at Sister Zhi's suggestion, she went to study media management, saying that if I wanted to set up a company by myself in the future, I could come back to manage the company for me. Actually, I think it would be great now! There is no need to be so troublesome..."

Speaking of which, Li Lianjie, the original time and space, did not have any ambition at first, but was later scared of being deceived. First, it was Jiahe, and then Luo Dawei, the son of Luo Wei. Then, he was just "rescued" by his new economic man Cai Zhiming, who was a gangster, and Cai Zhiming was shot and killed.

It is precisely because of this that he has resentment towards this circle, and then simply set up a company by himself, become his own boss, and no longer sign contracts with those film companies.

However, now, he has not encountered any problems in Wu Cheng's agency. His agent will handle almost all the problems for him, whether it is a film contract or an advertising contract.

Moreover, Tiancheng's agency's commission for artists is also very low. With his current S-level contract, the commission is only 5% of which is an outrageously low among all brokerage companies. But this happened in Tiancheng's agency.

In addition to Wu Cheng and Li Lianjie, there is also Zhou Runfa. As for the women around Wu Cheng, because of their special identities, they are all S-level.

And like Shenglong and Hong Jinbao, they are all just A-level.

Although Shenglong and Huang Baiming have their own companies, their brokerage contracts are still placed in Tiancheng Brokerage Company. Most of their brokerage business is still managed by the brokers of Tiancheng Brokerage Company. Because Tiancheng Brokerage Company's business management mechanism is very complete, it is much better than finding someone to manage the businesses themselves.

Therefore, in Li Lianjie's view, there is no need to start a company at all.

"I heard that you are ready to talk about marriage?" Wu Cheng asked again.

Then Li Lianjie's face turned red and he looked shy.

To outsiders, his expression is probably hard to imagine.

Wu Cheng laughed and said, "Sister Zhi mentioned this matter to me, and asked me what gift I would give you. Then again, are your days settled?"

Li Lianjie coughed lightly and grinned, "I'm not ready to do it, just choose a day to register!"

From this smile, we can see that there is emotion between them in this time and space.
