Legendary Hollywood Director

Early the next morning, Lyman was awakened by the strong sunlight streaming in from the window.

Last night, after Ma Liu wrote the script outline, he was so sleepy that he got into bed in a daze, and even forgot to close the window that he had opened when he was walking last night.

He scratched his hair vigorously, although his brain was still a little awake, but Lyman didn't want to fall asleep.

With his misty eyes open, he kicked up his slippers and walked to the bathroom.

After a meal, personal hygiene is done, and the spirit is slightly lifted.

After changing his clothes and picking up the script outline, Lyman backhanded the door and went out.

Walking on a fairly tidy street, basking in the summer sun, the whole person is instantly awake.

Vehicles sped past, and pedestrians paced slowly. Dressed in a cool body, it was inevitable that he would start to sweat.

Lyman thought to himself: If I had known that Ryan had come to pick me up in the car, I wouldn't have made an appointment to meet at the studio.

But there is no way, it has become an established fact, and it is useless to think blindly.

Continue to walk along the street, the tall trees on both sides of the road can barely shade a lot of sunlight, so it will not be more uncomfortable.

Not far away, there is a breakfast shop. Laiman has eaten it a few times before, and the taste is okay. The most important thing is that it is close to his house, and it is also in the direction of the studio.

When I went in, I saw a large table inside the door with various food trays, and there were all kinds of bread choices, and there was a large iron bucket on the other side, which was filled with hot milk.

Lyman said, A croissant, a chocolate loaf, and a cold coffee.

The smiling fat boss, wearing a mask, heard this. He held a bread folder and took it out of the plate gently and quickly. With the other hand, he took out the plastic bag and skillfully placed it, lifted it, and pulled it. , two loaves are ready. He took out the packaged coffee from the counter at the back and handed it to Lehmann, A total of eight euros.

After collecting money, asking for money, and then smilingly saying, Welcome to come again next time. The fat boss went to meet the requirements of the next customer again.

Seeing this, you may find out why all foods are sweets. In fact, Lehmann doesn't understand. Maybe the French think that breakfast is the first meal to supplement the energy needed for the day, and the most needed thing is glucose.

I ate as I walked along the way, and when I was about to reach the studio, the breakfast had already been solved by Lehmann.

After drinking, the shriveled coffee bag and the plastic bag containing the bread were rolled into a ball and neatly thrown into a garbage bin on the street.

He took out the key, opened the door of the studio, and Leiman walked in in a blink of an eye.

This house is located on a facade on the outer street of Monica Community, which is about 2,000 meters away from Lehman's apartment.

The interior space is not large, only about 20 square meters, with a toilet, but no equipment required for bathing. Anyway, it's an empty shell, and Lyman, Ryan, and even Thomas don't live here.

Ryan lives in an apartment across the street from the center of Cannes, which his father bought for him, and he stopped living with his parents when he became an adult.

Thomas actually lived in the Monica community. It was the property of one of his uncles and was temporarily lent to him to live there.

Lehman took out the mop from the bathroom and mopped the ground while he was free.

I haven't been here for more than a week, and the ground is a little dusty.

Just as I was going to scrub the nameplate at the door, Ryan also arrived.

He drove over in the silver-white sedan of the DS.

Hey, man, you haven't come out these days, but you've missed a lot of things. Ryan pretended to regret as soon as he entered the door of the studio.

What did I miss? Lyman said cooperatively, helping him take over the question.

You missed it, we went to enjoy the beauty activities together. A few days ago,

I went to Martinez Beach with Thomas and at a glance, it was all bikinis, the temptation... zizizi. Ryan slapped his mouth, looking extra exaggerated.

Come on, I haven't been to that place before, is it necessary for you to do this? Seriously, let's get down to business first. Laiman looked puzzled.

I can't do it just by looking at it, and the behavior that has passed the eye addiction is what a silly child like Ryan likes to do, and he pretends to be a lover. He is a pure lover. Lyman said he saw through everything.

Do you have a new plan?

Hearing the business, Ryan's eyes became more active. The creative road of Buried Alive is still vivid in his mind, and the success has made him eager to make his next film project again.

Well, you have an idea, you first look at the outline of the story. Saying that, Lyman took out a stack of manuscript papers from the document bag on the table and handed it to Ryan.

With anticipation, Ryan took the manuscript and sat on a wooden bench to read it carefully.

Well, what is the name of Nima, Three Silly Trouble in Bollywood, I'm watching, shit, the plot design that happened in India, and then I read down, it's still the story of college students. After reading all the way, Ryan put away the mood that he had been looking forward to earlier, and many questions that he didn't understand piled up in his mind, so he had to spit it out.

I think we need to change the name first. Ryan began to express his opinion.

Taking advantage of the time he was reading the script just now, Lehman wiped the nameplate hanging outside the house. Hearing this, he said, What's the name?

Ryan said: I can't get out of it, how about it, express my heart and echo the ending.

Why don't you call the three fools? More direct and clearer. Lyman rolled his eyes and ignored them.

Ryan was obviously not reconciled, and he continued to express his views, Then why do you want to film Indian education, France, the United Kingdom, and the United States, these campus stories are definitely worth watching, why are you running so far?

I'm going to involve the caste system, do these countries have it? One sentence kowtowed Ryan.

He thought for a while, then continued: We make movies in India, will there be an audience?

As long as the story can be told well, non-English films will also have audience support. The art of film has no borders.

Lyman finally knew what Ryan was worried about? It is nothing more than seeing that the main creative place is in India, and the actors are also selected in India, I am afraid it is too risky.

These days, non-English films are indeed not very popular in the global market. Few of the market masterpieces are born. Most of them are well-received, but the box office results are not good.

Okay, since you've thought about it, I don't have any other questions. Ryan spread out the manuscript and asked, What do I need to do, and what are the creative ideas?

Do you know the caste system in India? Do you understand the entire education system? The general direction is to talk about these. I need you to write the background conditions clearly to make my shooting ideas clearer.

Oh, man, you have given me another problem, when will you be able to make a film with a French background? This Indian country, I can't understand it too deeply, not to mention the social system. , you really found something for me to do, and I have to refer to various literatures, and I may disturb my mentor again. Ryan is also convinced, why does this friend like to shoot this kind of background investigation? movie? The whole thing is simple, isn't it? It's really hard for me to be fat tiger.

Just say if you can do it. Lyman looked at Ryan and said, Finish the background, the way the characters speak, and the details of life everywhere. We have a big ticket this time.

Oh, by the way, I haven't asked you yet, this movie will cost a lot to see, do you have enough money to shoot it?

Don't worry, I have a plan. Lyman said confidently.

As soon as Ryan heard it, he didn't say anything. He took the file bag, sorted out the script outline, took it and left.

It is not an easy task to study the social background of India, and he is probably busy.

After watching Ryan leave, Lehman stood in the studio, and after careful consideration, he decided to do all the preparatory work first, and he could be more convincing to invest in Europa Films.

He called Thomas, and the two of them went to various unions to file the project together.

The first stop was the Screenwriters Guild. The procedures here are very simple. The general situation of editing a script and paying a small fee can be completed for the script of the new project.

France's copyright law is very complete, but Lehmann did not expect that the recordation of the screenwriters' union could play a crucial role. Film companies have always had no morals, and imitating creativity is more commonplace. Even if it does go to court, it is absolutely fine for this kind of lawsuit to drag on for a year or two. Liberal democracy, you know everything.

The role of the Screenwriters Guild is to add an insurance, not a guarantee that the creative copyright will not be infringed. No one would be foolish enough to think that if the script has been accepted by the Screenwriters Guild, everything will be safe. If this is the case, it would be great.

After getting the record document issued by the Screenwriters Guild, the two went to the Directors Guild non-stop.

The threshold for joining here is still very conditional, and Lehman also successfully joined in with the release of Buried Alive and his complete creative experience.

If you pay a membership fee every year, you can get the help of the union, such as putting pressure on the production company to get a suitable salary, and reasonably asking for a profit from the film. All these, the directors of the director union will try their best to join each of them. The director strives for the best conditions, and when Lehmann went to negotiate with Europa Films, he was a very strong reinforcement.

After dealing with a series of possible advantages to the negotiation, the next step, the two of them went to the photography union to go through the formalities for Thomas.

Since he wants to truly become a photographer in the circle, qualifications are essential. With the help of the union, the situation will be better.

There is also the budget statement for the shooting. Lehman also began to put his heart into writing it. It is also a time-consuming task to be well-founded and coherent.
