Disaster Artist

Chapter 33: standard outcome

When Ji Xu arrived at Lu Qian's apartment, this was what he saw.

The two tall adults were like children, sitting unsuspectingly on the roadside bench, the sun quietly falling on the slightly raised cheeks, passing between the thick eyelashes and the soft lips Jumping, steady breathing and drooping head can be seen, it should be sound asleep, it seems that after a while, you can see the saliva falling.

Ji Xu was walking in a hurry, and almost missed Lu Qian. Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw two tall figures on the bench by the roadside. He was muttering and complaining in his heart. He felt a little strange and couldn't help but read more Two eyes, and then?

Then he was taken aback.

Is Lu Qian living on the street?

But after being stunned for a moment, it was a little helpless and absurd, and he chuckled lightly—

This doesn't seem like something Lu Qian would do before, but now that Lu Qian dares to break the routine and show more "human beauty" truth, it's actually quite good.

Ji Xu thought for a while, and immediately took a photo with his mobile phone as evidence, showing a satisfied expression. If he encounters danger in the future, he can blackmail Lu Qian.

"Aqian?"

Ji Xu patted Lu Qian's shoulder and called out loudly, but Lu Qian didn't respond yet. Lin Hanzhou on the bench next door jumped up like a frightened bird. Ji Xu was taken aback.

Lu Qian was woken up after half a beat. In a daze, he saw Lin Hanzhou, who was all over vigilant. He waved his hand subconsciously and yawned, "Hanzhou, I'm sorry, I fell asleep."

Lin Hanzhou's eyes moved back and forth between Lu Qian and Ji Xu. Although he was still very tense, he did not flee in the end.

Ji Xu looked at Lu Qian, whose eyes were blurred. Here, the ants moved away without knowing it."

"Ha, it's estimated that there will be many, many ants. You say, is 100 million enough?" Lu Qian was still yawning, and he didn't know if his words were serious.

As a result, "Hahaha", Lin Hanzhou suddenly laughed, but just after laughing twice, he became shy again, stopped laughing again, and moved back slightly cautiously.

Lu Qian also showed a smile and said to Ji Xu, "You should learn from Hanzhou, why are you so serious?"

Ji Xu laughed dryly, "Ha. Ha."

Lu Qian didn't mind, he looked up and greeted Lin Hanzhou, "Hanzhou, I'm sorry, I need to go home. If you have time another day, come to my house and play. Let's take a camera and shoot something."

After a brief greeting, Lu Qian stood up, greeted Ji Xu, turned around and entered the apartment building.

Lin Hanzhou hesitated for a moment, but still followed Lu Qian into the apartment like a tail. Just around the corner, he jumped out in a flash, pattering footsteps echoed in the stairwell, grabbing Lu Qian and Ji Xuzhi. Qian returned to his home, but still secretly left a crack in the door, quietly observing the appearance of Lu Qian.

Step, step, step.

Lu Qian and Ji Xu came side by side.

Lu Qian seemed to have noticed Lin Hanzhou's small movements and blinked towards the crack of the door, but without further action, he and Ji Xu went straight into his apartment next door.

Lin Hanzhou stood there, and the smile on the corner of his mouth rose, but after a pause, he was stunned again, tilting his head, his eyes full of confusion.

In this room, Ji Xu entered Lu Qian's apartment and caught sight of the chaos in front of the wind crossing the border.

"...I thought I was used to it, but every time I come here, it's an eye-opener. It's a complete mess here." Ji Xu complained expressionlessly.

Lu Qian looked back at Ji Xu, followed his line of sight to look at his house, "Don't you know? Dirty is a new kind of cleanliness."

"Just now, you completely destroyed the definition of the word 'clean'." Ji Xu was heartbroken.

Lu Qian had already walked towards the bed, "Did you come here specially to discuss the definition of 'cleanliness' with me? I can't open my eyes now, you only have three minutes at most, otherwise I will faint. dead."

Ji Xu, "..."

"Don't die, don't faint." Ji Xu was also a little flustered, and blurted out nonsense, "What about the later stage? Is the later stage all finished?"

"Well, the whole film is eighty-one minutes, and if you add the opening and ending, it's estimated to be about eighty-three minutes, provided that a company is willing to add openings to the front." Lu Qian threw himself into the bed heavily, and the mattress was He sank deeply, like a black hole, absorbing all his energy into it.

In general, commercial films are 90 minutes, and for good reason, because this is the optimal length of time for the audience's attention to remain focused; it is also the most mature length of a three-act film - an average of thirty per act. minutes; in addition, it is also the best time for the cinema line to arrange films.

Once a movie exceeds two hours, audiences tend to get distracted.

However, now that the development of movies has entered a new stage, the regular length of popcorn commercial blockbusters has been increased from 90 minutes to 120 minutes, and movies of about two hours are becoming the mainstream.

"Unfriending" is only 81 minutes, which is actually a good thing, at least for theatrical arrangement, there are more screenings that can be arranged in 24 hours.

Ji Xu nodded lightly to express his satisfaction~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But seeing Lu Qian's closed eyes, she panicked again, "Hey, aren't you curious about the outcome of the meeting between me and the film company? This director, Don't you care about the life and death of movies?"

"It's not that I don't care, it's that I don't have the energy to care." Lu Qian muttered—

He hadn't slept well for more than two weeks. On average, he only slept for two hours and three hours a day. After finally finishing post-production, his tense nerves relaxed and he really needed a good rest.

But in fact, Lu Qian was still concerned about the situation of the movie, so he insisted on the last bit of energy, "So what? Are there any surprises at the result of the meeting?"

Although post-production has been going on, Ji Xu and Lu Qian both knew that Liuguang Pictures would not let this work come out easily, and they needed to be prepared to face difficulties.

So early on, Ji Xu took a 30-minute version of Lu Qian's rough cut and went to visit major film companies, hoping that the selection managers could see the highlights of this work.

"According to my guess, it should be all rejections, right?" Lu Qian opened his eyes slightly and looked at Ji Xu through a slit.

Then I saw Ji Xu's embarrassed expression.

Lu Qian glanced and pouted, "Looks like I guessed right."

"Aqian, you should have some confidence in yourself and me." Ji Xu was unhappy, and complained gloomily, "Do you just not believe in my ability?"

It's not that Lu Qian doesn't believe in Ji Xu's ability, but that Lu Qian believes in the ability of Liuguang Films, which can be seen from Qi Yunguang's attitude at the beginning.

But Lu Qian didn't say much, and asked directly, "So is it good news?"

Ji Xu, "..." was speechless.

It seems that it is still the standard ending.
