Chapter 8 Everything is ready, only money is owed
Chen Tian first wrote down the main line of burying alive, and then wrote the entire script based on this main line.
Before traveling through time, Chen Tian liked to think very much.
Thinking about what factors are needed to succeed in low-cost films, being extremely creative is the result of Chen Tian’s thinking.
Not only low-cost films pursue creativity, almost all films will pursue it. Low-cost films that cannot be compared with large productions cannot be used to use gorgeous props, and they cannot invite first-line superstars, and they cannot get a good distribution channel.
On this basis, if you want to succeed, you must rely on creativity to win, and this is how it is buried alive.
The original film takes place in the background of an Iraqi man who took the criminal path after losing his job due to an American company's expansion in Iraq.
In the eyes of this Iraqi civilian robber, all Americans are the same and rich.
Although it is not the background of the Iraq War, it was still substituted for people when it was released later. Now, more than 40 days after the United States announced the end of the Iraq War, the American people are still deeply influenced by the Iraq War.
So Chen Tian decided to continue to use this background setting. Chen Tian did not intend to make major changes to the background setting and the original story of the phone.
The most critical plot in the original film is that the FBI called the protagonist when the sand was about to fill the coffin and told him that they were about to find him and let him hold on.
This rekindled the hope of survival by the protagonist who had already decided to wait for death. This scene was also the beginning of the whole film. With the preparation of the previous one, the audience will also enter it and hope to see the protagonist survive.
The way the director of the original film was undoubtedly very good in Chen Tian's opinion. Just when everyone felt that the protagonist had hope of survival, the FBI actually made a mistake in the rescue object and found another one.
The screenwriter at that time left a suspense. Some people said that the FBI did not rescue him at all but played a recording, while others said that he went to save him but found the wrong one.
Chen Tian is also ready to retain such controversy, and controversy will undoubtedly bring better results for the film.
This almost teasing method completely killed the flame of survival in the hearts of the protagonist who was on the verge of dying. This way of handling further promotes the theme that the whole film wants to express - reflecting the loneliness and helplessness of individual survival in modern society.
Finally, he added what he thought about, wrote the main line and thought about the details, and Chen Tian quickly typed on the computer keyboard.
Chen Tian was completely integrated into the plot, so he forgot the time.
"Xiaotian."
Hearing Grandma Wang's voice coming from outside, Chen Tian raised his head and found that it was time to unknowingly he had written a script for almost four hours.
At this time, he had already written the script for the whole film, and the storyboard script was almost written. He clicked to save it and stretched: "What's wrong with grandma?"
"I think you're resting until now. What do you want to eat? Grandma cooks in person today."
Chen Tian stood up and opened the door: "Grandma, I'll do it, I've just had enough rest."
In the past, when Chen Tian was at home, he would mostly count on buying vegetables and cooking, and treating Grandma Wang like his own grandma.
Without saying anything, Chen Tian walked into the kitchen directly, and the simple two dishes and one soup was ready quickly.
After dinner and packing up his things, Chen Tian returned to the room and turned on the computer again to finish writing all the storyboard scripts.
The script and storyboard script will be his biggest helper to sponsor, otherwise it would be almost impossible to make the other party invest with verbal descriptions alone.
The storyboard script is enough to show what the film wants to describe, but Chen Tian knows that it is not easy to attract sponsorship, even if he has enough confidence in "Buried Live", especially he is still a yellow man who has no graduation and no popularity.
After checking the script, I confirmed that there was no problem, I sent the script to Wan Ziren and Scarlett Johnson in email.
At the end of the email sent to Wan Ziren, Chen Tian added a little bit of his opinion on "Saw", which was also his small way to win over Wan Ziren bit by bit.
"Baby, you're finally back." Melanie Sloan stretched out his hands.
Scarlett Johnson looked at her mother with a feeling of wanting to cry and hugged her mother: "Mommy, I miss you."
"Baby, what are you thinking? I heard that you are great this time and you will definitely succeed. Go and wash it quickly and have a good love meal I prepared for you. In order to wait for you, your two younger brothers have been holding back their stomachs for a long time."
Melanie Sloan patted Scarlett on the back and let go of Scarlett. She felt something abnormal, but she thought it was too much pressure at work and didn't think much about it.
"It's nothing, I'll clean it up first and get out immediately." Scarlett walked upstairs with her small suitcase, returned to her room and packed her clothes. After tidying up the clothes, the cut-off chang was lying at the bottom of the box.
After a moment of silence, he took it up with some self-deprecating helplessness and put it in the mezzanine of his wallet.
She didn't rush to go down, but turned on the computer first. She wanted to go online to see if there was any news about her. Of course, it was the incident last night and this morning. She didn't want this incident to be exposed.
She felt that it would not be exposed, but she knew even more how incredible the paparazzi were.
After searching for a while, she couldn't see the news on that aspect, which made her feel relieved.
Just as she was about to turn off the computer, she remembered what Chen Tian said, "How could that smelly man say so quickly for up to a week, how could he have it now?"
"I don't have to wait for his email when I go up and take a look. Yes, maybe someone else will send me an email."
Log in to the email address and a prompt for a new email appears immediately.
"It's not really that fast, right?" Scarlett Johnson muttered and opened his inbox. The first unread email was titled as a script.
"So fast." Move the mouse and open the email, and click Download.
"Buried alive? What a thriller?"
However, Scarlett had no good feelings for the title, but he still held a look at what kind of script the stinky man Chen Tian could write.
Soon Scarlett was shocked. An ordinary woman from Iraq was innocently involved in it. The whole script showed that it was just a small production.
In addition, she performed without pay, the cost of this movie will be so low that it can be handled with an estimated $100,000.
Although this is an ultra-low cost production, it tests her acting skills. With the excellent script, she doesn't want to miss this opportunity.
She decided to agree, even though the drama was even released in her opinion, it was a problem, and she even forgot to ask the opinions of her agent Rosie Andrea and gave Chen Tian an accurate reply.
"Stinky man, it seems quite talented." Scarlett turned off the computer.
Chen Tian, who is far away in Los Angeles, didn't know that Scarlett gave him a reply so soon, and at this moment he was considering how to attract funds tomorrow.
