MTL - Hollywood Lover-Chapter 6 don't be a dinosaur

   "Oh? It sounds like you are a little unhappy?" Victoria asked with her head tilted.

  Her fingers are exceptionally clean and slender, and she is also very good at using flower scissors. She is talking in her mouth and her hands are not stopping. Some messy branches and leaves gradually become more eye-catching under her pruning.

  Victoria had a crush on Zhang Dongcheng, an obviously shy oriental boy, and just about to speak, the flower scissors in her hand accidentally touched a pot of flowers on Zhang Dongcheng's side, knocking it to the ground!

   "Bang!" The flowerpot burst when it touched the ground!

   "Oh, God, my flowers!" Zhang Dongcheng screamed, looking at the messy flowers on the ground with broken branches and leaves without tears.

  Victoria was also taken aback, and said in a panic: "I'm really sorry, Zhang Smith, I didn't notice this flowerpot."

Distressed, he picked up the soil scattered on the ground, hurriedly put it back into the flower pot, and stuffed the dilapidated flower into it. Zhang Dongcheng said helplessly and despondently: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay. I can't blame you." .It's just that this flower is my cousin's favorite, and it was brought from China."

"Bring it from China! Isn't that very expensive...?" Victoria was a little embarrassed, as if wanting to make up for her mistakes, she found an old flowerpot by her side, ran into Zhang Dongcheng's garden quickly, and handed it over to Zhang Dongcheng. to him.

"It's not expensive, but it's just a nostalgia for my hometown." The flower pot was too broken, and he was completely unfit for his job. Zhang Dongcheng could only accept Victoria's kindness and moved the flowers over, but it was a bit broken The appearance of it makes it look as if it has just been crippled by a violent storm.

   "It's... so embarrassing."

"It's okay. I'll tell my cousin that I accidentally broke the flower. It's okay. Anyway, when my cousin yells at me, I will automatically become deaf." Zhang Dongcheng stood up, holding the flower in his hand. With that ridiculous flower.

"Hehe, you're so interesting." Victoria was amused, looked at Zhang Dongcheng with great interest, saw him lowering his head shyly, dodging his eyes, and said with great interest: "Look at your Age, are you still a student?"

   "Uh, yes, I'm in the Directing Department of the London Film Academy and I'm graduating soon." Zhang Dongcheng smiled.

   "Oh, film director?" Victoria's eyes lit up, "This is a great career, and I also like movies. So you will become a great director in the future?"

"Becoming a great director is not so easy. My dream is to be a director, make a movie that the whole world is crazy about, win the best director award at the Oscar, and let the world know that a Chinese can also It's always been a dream of mine to make a movie that's convincing and admirable!"

"Hehe, life is meaningful only when you have a dream. Like you, I am also advancing towards my dream. Emma and I both have the desire to become world pop idols. We stand out from thousands of people and form a group together. We rehearse every day, study every day, just want to be the first and most successful girl band in the world!"

  Talking about her dream, Victoria's eyes sparkled, her little fist was clenched, and she waved it excitedly.

"Haha, you are all on the way forward with your dreams, but mine has not yet started. As I said just now, if you want to be a great director, you can't get it by working hard. So many directors graduate every year. How many of our students can succeed?" Zhang Dongcheng knew that in the not-too-distant future, Victoria in front of him would become the favorite idol of young people in the UK, but he was stuck on the road to success. Some of them are gradually becoming dirty, and some of them feel sad.

Victoria was stunned, her beautiful big eyes flashed, and she asked tentatively: "I know that movies are far more complicated than making records. But if you have any thoughts and difficult choices, maybe, maybe you can tell them, and I will help you. Staff."

  Zhang Dongcheng looked at Victoria with a serious face, perhaps because a beautiful girl can always make boys confide in their hearts, he forgot that the girl in front of him was just meeting for the first time, but he chatted like an old friend.

"Film, in the simplest terms, is the art of light and shadow. It has always been at the forefront of world technology. To make a perfect movie, you must have a lot of capital investment. To be honest, even if it is a small-budget movie, hundreds of thousands or even several Ten thousand pounds is a drop in the bucket, not enough to watch!"

Zhang Dongcheng straightened his back, the future movies in his mind filled him with confidence, he patted his chest vigorously, and said firmly: "I have countless wonderful scripts in my mind, and every script can be Let me gain both fame and fortune, and make a lot of money."

"Are you sure your movie will be popular with the audience? I know that many movie companies are facing bankruptcy because a movie failed at the box office and lost all their money." Victoria opened her mouth slightly in surprise, very surprised by this shy boy When it comes to movies, he becomes sharp and confident

Zhang Dongcheng laughed, then sighed softly, changed the topic, and continued with a little sadness: "The topic of box office failure is still far away from me, because the ridiculous thing is that the five hundred pounds in my pocket Pounds, but it's impossible for me to make a single scene of any movie!"

   "Maybe, maybe you can seek the help of other people, such as animation film company to invest for you." Victoria quickly threw out a solution.

"How could those film companies invest in a movie for someone like me? Even if I finished writing the script and presented it to them, they would probably throw it into the wastebasket. Write a good script, and the film company will take a look at it." The story of a small person turning himself into a master can only exist in movies or novels." Zhang Dongcheng shook his head.

As long as you make the movies in your mind, you can sweep the box office all over the world. You can only talk to an ignorant girl like Victoria. If you really talk about these topics directly with the film company, it will only make people feel naive and arrogant. , I don't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth.

I have no contacts in the film industry at all. If I hand in a good script, even if those capitalists with dirty things seeping in their pores show kindness and don't directly steal or spend a few small money, it is absolutely impossible to hand over the directing rights of those films. For a recent graduate.

  The probability and hope of becoming famous by winning the script is as slim as winning a five million lottery jackpot. With future movies in his mind, Zhang Dongcheng doesn't want to waste his time waiting for the hope of showing kindness to others.

  My friend is a lesson from the past, Zhang Dongcheng doesn't want to be robbed of his hard work and beaten up.

Frowning her delicate eyebrows, Victoria unexpectedly did not continue this topic, but stretched out her arms, stretching out her slender waist that made people's eyes jump, and said with a coquettish smile: "Maybe we can change our way of thinking, how about I I like listening to jokes the most, if you tell me a joke, maybe it will inspire me."

   "Tell a joke?" Zhang Dongcheng was a little puzzled.

   "Yes. In fact, everyone's thinking and thinking may have some limitations, but I haven't noticed it. Come on, tell a joke." Victoria urged, pointing to the sky.

"Okay, let me try to talk about one." Zhang Dongcheng rubbed his head: "On a snow-white beach, two dinosaurs rushed here, sweating profusely as if they had traveled a long way. But they came When we got to the beach, there was no one there, only a boat was getting farther and farther away on the sea. The dinosaur stretched its neck angrily, roared angrily, and shouted at the boat: Noah, FUCKYOU!"

  Victoria was taken aback for a moment, then understood, laughed so hard that she coughed, had to sit up, and punched Zhang Dongcheng.

   "I thought you were a shy oriental boy, but I didn't expect you to be like that... The first joke you told me was swearing."

   "Hey, I can't help it, I have a black friend." Zhang Dongcheng smiled while rubbing his head.

   "Ha, actually, this joke of yours is the answer to your problem!" Victoria rolled her eyes and smiled.

   "What?" Monk Zhang Dongcheng was puzzled.

"Dinosaurs became extinct because they didn't catch up with Noah's Ark. In other words, if they set off as soon as possible, they could have avoided this happening. In more popular terms, if you want to survive, you must be ahead of others! Think To be successful, you must take the first step bravely before dawn, instead of just sitting around and dreaming!"

"You are right, but I..." Zhang Dongcheng suddenly pursed his lips tightly, his face showing incomparable determination: "You are right, no matter what difficulties there are, I will take that step. I Invest by yourself, shoot by yourself! I can’t be an actor, camera, lighting, props, I do all the work by myself to save the cost to the minimum. Now I don’t have to think so much. I want to make a movie and get it in Cannes, France Participating in international film festivals, as long as I can win awards, or even get great acclaim, and gain a certain reputation, my dream will be shortened a lot, and I will definitely become a great director!"

  I don’t know why, but under the guidance of Victoria, who has always been hesitant, seems to have found a breakthrough, and the irrepressible impulse erupts like a volcano.

   Yes, that's it! Instead of trying to make a blockbuster movie and getting stuck on that road while waiting for funds to be raised, it is better to try every means to save money, think of nothing, make the first movie, and don't do that to Noah, just feel sad and indignant A dinosaur that can say FUCKYOU!

  Zhang Dongcheng clenched his fists tightly, full of fighting spirit all over his body.

   "Hehe, it seems that you have really figured it out. Smith, as your neighbor, I support you!" Victoria was obviously in a good mood, and she was very proud of solving a boy's troubled mind with a few words.

  Listening to Victoria's words, Zhang Dongcheng stood up, kept thinking, walked up and down the lawn frowning, with a serious expression on his face.

"Also, you said that you only have 5,000 pounds, and you can't even shoot a movie clip. I think, your thinking is too paranoid, just like our record industry, do you have to have a dozen songs, enough Do we need to release an album to become a singer? We can release a single first, and after gaining public recognition and popularity, we can accumulate more and release a whole album!" Victoria's words seemed like lightning in the dark night , Instantly tearing apart the dark night, Zhang Dongcheng suddenly realized.

"You mean, I can shoot some very dramatic or shocking parts in the script, or condense the whole story, and only shoot a short film of ten minutes or even a few minutes?" Zhang Dongcheng patted Thigh, said excitedly.

  Victoria smiled, looking at Zhang Dongcheng's eyes with gentle watery eyes, but she didn't speak. A smart girl knows when to enlighten and when to let the men play by themselves.

Zhang Dongcheng's eyes are getting brighter and brighter. Victoria's idea gave him a shortcut to fulfill his responsibilities and dreams. If he was still hesitant because of ideological confinement before, then this moment is like enlightenment. Endless courage surged in my heart.

  Hundreds of future movies exist in his mind, but he inadvertently conceals the fact that there are short films in the movie category. Zhang Dongcheng can't help laughing at himself as a fan of the authorities.

   "I know what to do, thank you!" Zhang Dongcheng took a deep breath, and sincerely said to Victoria. At this time, even a thousand words cannot express his gratitude to this beautiful girl.

   "It can be regarded as helping you solve a problem, hey, come on, goodbye!" Helping people is always a happy thing, Victoria is also very happy, stood up, waved to Zhang Dongcheng, and returned to the opposite villa.

  Excited Zhang Dongcheng watched Victoria return home before throwing down the flower scissors in his hand, screaming strangely and rushing back to his room, turning on the TV set that entrusted his hopes and dreams.
