She smiled at Qin Long and continued,""I'm fine. Okay, I'll go back immediately." After hanging up, she shook the phone in her hand and said,"Alright, I have to go home."
Qin Long looked at the sky. It was indeed quite late now. He nodded and said,"Okay, then let's split up."
"Little hooligan, do you have a phone? " This is my phone number, this is my Messenger number…" Ning Lin took out a piece of paper and a pen from her purse and quickly wrote down her phone number and Messenger number. Then, she pushed the pen and paper to Qin Long.
Qin Long couldn't help but roll his eyes. He didn't know who was the hooligan who had just teased his brother. "This is mine." Qin Long took the pen and paper and wrote his phone number and Messenger number on the blank space below the paper. Then, he tore the paper in half and pushed the pen and paper back."Alright."
Ning Lin looked at the number on the paper and put it back into her purse. She said happily,""If you need any help, look for me. Also, remember to tell me what movie you want to make. I really want to know how to make a movie with 50,000 yuan.”
"I know, I will." Wang Yang waved the paper in his hand.
"Then you have to take good care of it." Then, he hailed a taxi and left.
Qin Long watched the taxi leave before turning around to leave.
At night, when Qin Long was thinking about what movie he should shoot, he was stunned when he returned home.
It turned out that Liang Hui 'er had already prepared a meal and was waiting for him. Qin Long felt a wave of warmth in his heart when he felt the strong kinship.
"Long Er, why are you only back now?" Even though Liang Hui 'er's tone was dissatisfied, she could not hide the love and pride in her eyes.
"If you really want to get into the directing department, why don't you consider the music department?”Liang Hui 'er's voice was a little deep. She did not want Qin Long to waste her singing voice.
Qin Long really did not plan to learn music. He believed that he could spend money to learn and practice musical instruments. He could also learn vocal and performance techniques. With so many famous songs, coupled with his cheat,'Heavenly Sound,' he did not have to worry about becoming famous. However, it was different for directors. Although the Entertainment Superstar System had the option of being a director, he did not understand it. Moreover, it was difficult to get used to being a director without systematic training. Since he had decided to take this path, he had to find the most suitable path for himself.
"Mom, don't worry. I have my own plans.”Qin Long knew that Liang Hui 'er was concerned about him and knew that it would be useless to say anything, but he still said,"How about this? I will make great achievements in my four years of university. If it doesn't work, I will change my major to the music department.”
Liang Hui 'er felt helpless about Qin Long's firm stance. Forget it, let him do what he liked.
At this moment, the program on the television was broadcasting the annual graduation ceremony of St. Paolo High School. Ten minutes later, Qin Long appeared on the television.
Hehe, looks like I've become famous.
Qin Long stayed in his room and began to think about what movie he should shoot. What he needed was a low-budget movie. The lower the budget, the better! "Hey, Number One, do you have any good suggestions?”
Soon, a bunch of movies appeared in his mind. Most of them were comedies, but when he looked at the production costs, most of them were millions of dollars. Qin Long could not help but mutter,"Can you go lower, lower…"
As a result, a large number of movies disappeared, leaving only a few movies. He carefully checked them out, and two of them were most suitable for his current situation. The first was Brel the Witch, and the second was Paranormal Activity.
These two movies were both low-budget horror films. They were shot with DV cameras. They used a pseudo-documentary shooting method, which was technically not difficult at all. This method was also created by the movie," The Witch ".
" Breyer the Witch." The production cost of this film was only 60,000 dollars. It was about October 1994, when three film students came to Bull Town with DV cameras to investigate the local legend of the Bull Witch. In order to find the Breyer witches, they came to the Black Forest near the town, but they disappeared soon after.
Later, people and the American government searched for them, using helicopters and even satellites, but there was no trace of them at all. People had to give up the search.
A year later, a few students went to the Black Forest to explore. They found a package in a very hidden cabin in the forest. The package contained the diary of one of the missing students, Harci, and a copy of a movie that had been edited. It recorded all the horrible things that happened when Hazi and the other two went missing a year ago.
This was the story of " Breyer the Witch." When the film was being promoted, it was said that the film was based on the copy. It seemed to be a true story, but in fact, everything was just a movie.
This kind of publicity method and the film method of pseudo-documentaries had created a new situation. " Breyer the Witch " raked in 140 million dollars at the box office in North America. Including the 108 million dollars outside S Province, it had raked in 248 million dollars at the global box office! Looking at its production cost, it was 60,000 USD.
The other movie, Paranormal Activity, was about a young couple who had moved into a new house in the suburbs. However, there seemed to be something unclean in the house, and all kinds of supernatural phenomena and noises came from nowhere. The couple decided to use the camera to replace themselves in their sleep and see what was going on in the house. Therefore, they installed cameras in every corner of the house, hoping to capture the ghost. However, this brought them a terrible end.
The production cost of this movie, which was released in 2009, was even lower. It only cost 11,000 USD! As for the box office, it was 107 million in North America, 85 million overseas, and a terrifying 193 million worldwide.
Qin Long did not even need to think about it before choosing Blaire the Witch. There were a few reasons." Breyer the Witch " was originally made by a few students. It was a low-budget student film, and the scenes of the movie were not difficult. Of course, he could make it. Secondly, the purchasing power of 60,000 US dollars and 50,000 Chinese dollars was about the same, which was in line with his budget. As for the location, there were many deserted islands in Province X, which was perfect for filming.
Thinking of this, Qin Long waved his fist and shouted,""Just take it out!"
After confirming the movie he was going to shoot, Qin Long suddenly felt his blood boil. He was very excited and paced around the house. He really wanted to share this news with others! He thought of Ning Lin again, so he took out the piece of paper with her phone number and dialed it.
The call went through quickly. When he heard Ning Lin's voice," Hello," Wang Yang said immediately,""Ning Lin, it's me, Qin Long. Did I disturb you?"
"No, I didn't go to bed so early.”Ning Lin said angrily.
Qin Long didn't care about Ning Lin's complaints and said excitedly,""Haha, let me tell you a piece of good news. I've already decided on what movie to shoot! I also have an idea for the script."
"Oh, so fast? Can you tell me?" Ning Lin said excitedly.
" It's a horror movie. It's about three students who went to Breyer Town in the State of Pennsylvania to make a documentary about the legend of Breyer the Witch…" Qin Long told the story of Breyer the Witch and finally said,""The key is this 'pseudo-documentary' filming method. This will be a pioneering work!”
Ning Lin complained,"Stingy, it's night time now!" Are you trying to make me have nightmares?" " That sounds interesting," she said." Can I be the female lead in the movie?"”
"Of course, but we still need to find two people.”There were three actors for 'Blaire the Witch', and apart from Ning Lin, there were still two more.
"Isn't that simple? You can just post a recruitment on the art academy's forum.”
"Haha, you're right."
The two of them chatted for a while more, agreed on tomorrow's matters, and said goodnight to each other. Qin Long first logged into the forum of the Academy of Fine Arts in Province X and posted a recruitment post. Then, he took a shower, brushed his teeth, and fell asleep in his room. He was tired from the whole day and wanted to sleep a long time ago, so he fell asleep very quickly.
Lin Yuhong had been very frustrated recently. He wanted to apply for the Academy of Fine Arts in Province X, but he didn't know how to complete one of his works. He was an orphan and didn't have the money to plan a production. He was working with someone else, and his appearance was not outstanding. No one was willing to let him be the main character. Even the supporting roles were those handsome men. These idiots, did they really think that a good movie would be made based on the appearance of the characters? Although he hated this group of idiots, he felt helpless. Was he really going to give up on the art college entrance exam? However, she really loved acting.
Lin Yuhong decided to search online again. He would not give up until the end. However, he was soon disappointed, because all the actors and actresses had the condition of 'outstanding appearance' in their recruitment. Hehe, was he really destined not to become an actor? Lin Yuhong thought to himself. However, in an inconspicuous corner, an actor recruitment attracted Lin Yuhong's attention.
Wanted: Two male actors
[Requirements: Age: 20 years old, experience in acting, appearance: no requirements]
(Note: Less salary)
Lin Yuhong was very excited. He had finally found a film that didn't require looks. Although the salary was low, it didn't matter to Lin Yuhong. As long as he could have a film, it would be fine. Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Lin Yuhong quickly submitted his resume.
Similar scenes were happening elsewhere.
The next day, Qin Long arrived early at the place where the interview was held-a coffee shop. However, after waiting for a long time, there was still no one who came to apply for the job. Qin Long was a little anxious. Could it be that his address was wrong, or did others think that the salary was too low? Just as Qin Long was getting impatient, an actor who had come for the interview finally appeared.
