Chapter 639 Something Important(1/2)

"Um——It seems that your eldest uncle has high hopes for you, only strict teachers can produce high disciples."

Tao Yucheng was full of confidence when giving advice to the script and said that there was no big problem. Now that the script was beaten back, he felt his son's dissatisfaction, and he couldn't help but feel his face hot.

This is the biggest crisis that Professor Tao has encountered since his career!

After pondering for a while, Tao Yucheng felt that he still had to maintain his image in front of his son, "I'll read this script again and help you modify it."

Tao Xiwu general was skeptical, but now he can only make a living. He also doubted what the boss Tao Xiwen said to him before.

Seeing my eldest uncle like this doesn’t seem to be a test of them. He really demanded them with high standards. After sending Tao Xiwu away, Tao Yucheng looked through the script and looked at it. No matter how he read it, he thought it was written very well.

Chaoyang shouldn't have deliberately made things difficult for them, right? Tao Yucheng thought to himself.

Is it because the level gap is too big?

Thinking of this, Tao Yucheng couldn't help but feel guilty.

He is a casual person and never relies on his status as a superior person. He is especially impressed by his brother-in-law's creative talent.

After thinking about it, he felt that it would be better to ask his brother-in-law for a clear question.

My brother-in-law is a great writer. It is not embarrassing to ask for advice. You cannot lose face in front of your son.

After self-resolving, Tao Yucheng put the script in front of Lin Chaoyang without any psychological burden.

"This kid has gone to find you?" Lin Chaoyang looked at the script and said to Tao Yucheng with a smile.

"I helped to modify this script," said Tao Yucheng.

Lin Chaoyang's originally vivid expression froze there, and then he showed an apology smile, "Oh, look at this, brother-"

Tao Yucheng waved his hand, "Don't talk about the useless ones, tell me the problem."

"Blind, there is nothing wrong with it. I also saw that those children are malleable talents, and they raised some standards."

"You'll say politely. You can talk about the script first, so I can change it for them."

"Did you change?" Lin Chaoyang asked in surprise.

Tao Yucheng looked slightly embarrassed, "The guy who had asked me for advice before, and I promised it."

Lin Chaoyang was speechless, Tao Xiwu, you are a good kid!

Not only do you cheat me, but you also cheated me.

This matter is a mess!

Lin Chaoyang is now giving his opinions, and it is not right if he doesn’t give any opinions.

"If you want to talk about this problem, it's a bit too much. The narrative structure at the beginning was very loose and the rhythm was a bit unbalanced. The scenes of several supporting characters were obviously not very coordinated. After several changes, all these problems were removed.

But if you look at it carefully, there is still a lack of the causal chain of traditional dramas, conflict progression, emotional preparation and psychological motivation exploration.

For example, in the scene where Chen Weiguo called his wife, the family-style dialogue was too trivial and long, completely diluting the emotional impact that should have, and it took up a long time.

Of course, these issues are also related to the length, after all, there is only a script of more than 30 minutes——.”

Lin Chaoyang picked up the key questions of the script and told Tao Yucheng for a while. He heard him nodding frequently and asked: "

Then I'll change it as you said."

A father like Tao Yucheng looked a little unrestrained, but one advantage he had is that he never regarded himself as a superior authority. He was willing to bend down for his son, but Lin Chaoyang could not let him do so.

After all, he asked Tao Xiwu and the others to change the script, and the main purpose was to let this kid not take care of everything.

"Don't be so troublesome, just like this script. Just call Xiwu and I'll give him the sponsor."

Lin Chaoyang said.

"That won't work."

Tao Yucheng combined the script, and this matter involved his dignity as a professor of the Central Academy of Drama. If Lin Chaoyang let it go so gently, wouldn’t it mean to tell Tao Xiwu that the script was passed by relying on his favor to find Lin Chaoyang?

Professor Tao must never lose this face.

Lin Chaoyang smiled bitterly and said, "I'm just trying to give him a long memory. Now it's your life."

"He works for graduation, so I should be doing some effort."

Tao Yucheng's personality is not a fight or scramble, and he doesn't care whether his contributions and rewards are equal in this matter. This is also the reason why he has good popularity between school and friends. Tao Xiwu can also inherit his personality trait.

"Then, write down all the opinions I just said, and I will explain them to you in detail. You can hand over the script to Xiwu and let his classmates modify it themselves."

Tao Yucheng thought about it and felt that his brother-in-law was taking care of his face, so he agreed readily.

More than two hours later, Tao Yucheng only felt a numbness when he looked at the script that was commented and had many suggestions for revisions.

"Chaoyang, this thing has been modified. More than 30 scenes are probably not enough, right? Why do you feel like you are going to the feature film?"

These few times, Lin Chaoyang hugged Tao Xiwu and the others. The students had too many problems with the script. Today, they completely let go of all the flaws of the script, and felt a little happy.

"It's okay, let them change it. It's really done. I'll pay more for sponsorship and let them make feature films."

Tao Yucheng patted Lin Chaoyang on the shoulder gratefully and said nothing.

The next day, he handed the script to Tao Xiwu and said with a serious face: "This is the revision opinion that your father spent the whole night to help you with the revision, so that your classmates can go back and write the script carefully. Don't think about dealing with it, otherwise I would disagree with the sponsorship."

Tao Xiwu felt the rare solemn matter of his old father, and nodded seriously, "I understand."

"I understand, no! You, an assistant director, are you doing all these things on yourself?"

Tao Yucheng is a person who is willing to suffer losses. He can also accept his son's losses, but he cannot be a fool.

Tao Xiwu scratched his head, "I've told me all my uncle."

"I said you don't have a memory yet..." Tao Yucheng scolded his son.

Tao Xiwu gave up and said, "What should I do? Everyone is a classmate, and they all do their own jobs."

"What a nonsense job! Who can remember the 'assistant director'? When you go back and change the script with your classmates, you can also be considered a resume. My strength and your eldest uncle are not in vain."

"My eldest uncle helped me raise this opinion?" Tao Xiwu automatically filtered the previous words of his father and only focused on the last half of the sentence.

Realizing that he had missed his words, Tao Yuxing Ma asked for help, "Your uncle has read so many scripts for you. Is it a waste of time? If you become an assistant director, your family will have to pay and work. If you become a director,

Do we all have to sell blood?”

After being scolded for a few words, Tao Xiwu didn't care about the problem just now and ran away with his head shrank.

"I understand, I understand."

After scolding his son, Tao Yucheng felt relieved.

A guy, I just asked me some questions, but fortunately I was smart.

Two days later, Tao Yushu flew back to Xiangjiang first. The No. 67 Film Studio located in Tseung Kwan O Industrial Village will be auctioned for the first year. Lin's Film is determined to win this land.

The No. 67 Film Studio is not large, with an area of ​​523,000 square meters, with a total area of ​​less than 60,000 square meters. However, for Xiangjiang, a densely populated city, it is already a large plot of land.

Lin's Pictures has two competitors, one is Jiahe Pictures, and the other is a consortium of six film companies including Shaw Brothers and China Star.

Since Cheng Long left, Jiahe's situation has been deteriorating. The production volume in the past two years has fallen below 10. The box office revenue is also Wang Xiaoer's New Year holiday, which is worse than that of one year in the year when Xiangjiang movies are generally sluggish.

The 20-year lease period for the Jiahe studio is about to expire, and the Hong Kong government is about to take it back, so Zou Wenhuai has to bid for the Tseung Kwan O plot with all his might.

China Star is the original Yongsheng. Because of the ride-hailing of Lin's Pictures, China Star and Shaw's metropolis have developed smoothly in the past few years.

In the past two years, as Lin's Film Corporation's trend of dominating Xiangjiang has become more and more obvious, it has siphoned the resources of the entire Xiangjiang River.

Originally, many small and medium-sized companies around Lin's Pictures have begun to slowly or passively stay away from Lin's.

In this case, companies such as China Star and Shaw Brothers chose to join forces to keep warm. Several companies are of considerable size in Xiangjiang, but facing the giant Lin's Pictures, they can only unite.

Tao Yushu and Lin's Pictures don't feel anything about their rivals, just like an elephant doesn't care about the rabbits jumping and jumping beside them.

The land auction ended, and the result was not surprising. Lin's Film Studio won the No. 67 Film Studio plot for HK$102 million.

Tao Yushu, who had successfully bid, had a reserved smile on his face. He exchanged a few greetings with Ms. Peng, assistant director of the Land Affairs Department, and accepted congratulations from representatives from Shaw Brothers and China Star.

After the polite social interaction, Tao Yushu was about to leave, but someone shouted, "Lin Tai, stay."

Tao Yushu turned his head and found that it was Zou Wenhuai from Jiawei.

"Is there anything wrong with Zou Sheng?"

Zou Wenhuai nodded. Seeing that he looked solemn, Tao Yushu said, "Then Zou Sheng gets into my car."

Zou Wenhuai pondered for a moment, "Okay."

The car was driving smoothly on the road. Tseung Kwan O has been building for nearly ten years, and there are still many tower cranes on the roadside, and everything seems so vibrant.

Zou Wenhuai withdrew his gaze and said to Tao Yushu: "It's really a plentiful thing to do. The value of this land in Tseung Kwan O is at best 80 million."

Tao Yushu Shuheshou said, "It is indeed a little expensive, but there is no way. Jiawei and Shaw seem to be sure of this land, and we have to do our best."

The value of the film studio plot No. 67 should not be so high. After all, the auction is only the land, and the subsequent construction funds are the big ones.

It’s not that companies such as Jiahe and Shaw Brothers cannot afford the 100 million Hong Kong dollars, but that they have to consider the return on this investment and cost-effectiveness.

"Madam Lin is joking. Just 100 million Hong Kong dollars, how can I do my best for Lin?"

Tao Yushu knew that Zou Wenhuai came to find her on his own initiative, and it was definitely not for complimenting her.

The atmosphere in the car was silent for a moment. Seeing that Tao Yushu looked calm and had no intention of speaking actively, Zou Wenhuai could only speak again.
