Global Movie Emperor

"The evil thoughts of minors are much more terrifying than those of adults. This kind of evil thoughts has no source. Perhaps just to express themselves, they radiate their malice without concealment. What is even more frightening is that they have no way to control it and cannot control it. Take responsibility for what you do.”

"What's even more ironic is that the law will protect these underage bastards and fuel their arrogance. Their personalities will become more violent and perverse, and they will become more undisciplined. When the law protects their personal rights, it never thinks of it. However, who will make up for the injuries suffered by the bullied? Who will tell their pain? Look at the suicides every year. How many people have a good childhood? Look at those serial murderers, their childhood will always be Along with violence at home, at school, and even sexual assault and abuse.”

"Don't tell me that good and evil will eventually be rewarded, that God will reincarnate, or that they are destined to repent for their evil deeds in childhood and will eventually be punished. It's just nonsense. A person's future is not determined by his upbringing. , but the tone is set by the wealth of the family.”

"Yes, many bullies become repairmen, low-level gang members, or even prisoners after leaving school. Their lives will not be good, but there are still a large number of bullies who will drive luxury cars after graduation. Famous watches, attending wealthy parties, traveling all over the world, sleeping with sexy girls one after another, what kind of retribution is this!"

"And what about the bullied? This will be a lifelong psychological shadow, and it will even affect him for the rest of his life. Lu Ze, look at me, I am mixed race, what they call yellow skin, so I am in high school. I have been isolated and bullied when I was young, and I know what it feels like. To this day, I still resent my cowardice at that time. If I had not chosen the path of film, I would probably have become a reckless man eager for revenge. Either stab them through with a knife, or simply become a murderer and clean up their house."

"But then I'm done. I can't realize my dreams, I can't realize my value. I'm no longer the director Mickey Taylor, but the serial murderer Mickey Taylor. I no longer enjoy the praise, but only the infamy. , becoming a cold-blooded killer recorded in British history."

"My original intention in making this film was just to show those bullies who have not yet completely formed their views on what heinous things they have done. I know that the eradication of school violence will never be complete, but it can make a small child It is enough if a few bullies who still have some conscience realize their cruelty and can change."

"In addition, I hope that those children who have experienced the same situation as me will not do stupid things. Life should be spent in a world with singing birds and fragrant flowers, not behind cold bars. Even if we have suffered a lot of injuries, it is also proof of growth. At the same time, I I hope the public will also pay attention to such incidents. Only by mobilizing the power of all sectors of society can the scope of campus bullying incidents be reduced to a minimum. It would be absolutely impossible for an individual or a small group to do so."

…

Lu Ze lowered his head and smoked a cigarette. The ashes were not flicked off. He stayed there for a long time. He listened to Mickey's tirade without interrupting. He seriously thought about whether this script would have a positive effect, rather than giving a message to those who have experienced it. Injured children bring secondary harm. After all, this movie may cause an even bigger disturbance than "Afterlife".

"The Past" easily resonates with adults, but adults' resonance is cheap. Social laws can be divided into three stages: learning the laws, adapting to the laws, and obeying the laws.

For adults who are in the stage of obeying the rules, as long as certain people control public opinion, they will not make any waves. It is also because of these people's deliberate suppression that "The Past" did not break out of the niche and became a phenomenon. The movie has a sensational response only in a few countries in Asia.

Campus bullying is different. It is outside the rules and is not recognized by people at any stage. Instead, it will be recognized and shared by all walks of life and all strata of society, causing a huge sensation.

Filming this script means that they will get into some trouble again. Whether it is good or bad, there will always be a huge public opinion storm centered on them.

He considered the gains and losses, the pros and cons, and had the intention of rejecting it, but after hearing Mickey's words, he couldn't say anything. His thoughts continued to spread and extend outward, until the tobacco burned his fingers, and then he suddenly stopped. Come to your senses.

Some things should not consider gains and losses or pursue benefits. They should originate from the inner kindness and be completed under the instructions of a kind heart. It should not care about the pros and cons, or gains and losses, but a sense of mission. You have to do it.

As for the good and bad sides of things, why bother thinking before doing them? Before the results come out, everything is meaningless. If you don't do it, the bad results may not befall you, but if you don't do it, the good side will never come. They have already become cruel to the situation. People who have been reduced to fuel in society have spoken out. How about speaking up for a group of children who need to be saved?

If he continued to care about gains and losses with a businessman's mentality, he would lose the foundation of his life. Lu Ze didn't want this, so he would not refuse Mickey's request this time.

Picking up the manuscript paper with dried handwriting, he read it carefully. Lu Ze frowned tightly. It took about ten minutes and after reading five pages of manuscript paper, he put the script back on the table. The two looked at each other, Lu Ze felt discouraged. He gave a wry smile, raised his hands and waved.

"It seems that I have no reason to refuse."

"You shouldn't have said no in the first place."

Mickey smiled, folded the manuscript paper on the table, put it aside, jumped on the table, and sat next to Lu Ze, holding a cup of coffee, swinging his feet in the air, looking out the window at the security guard standing guard at the door, and shook his long He took a sip of coffee.

"Okay, I will give you some reference for the parts of the script that need to be completed, but I don't know if it will work. After all, writing a script is still too difficult for me. If it doesn't work, you'd better find someone else. It’s a very important matter, so you must be careful and careful. After you finish writing these, leave the storyboarding part to me and I will handle it.”

"OK, then I will be responsible for the written script, and I can rest assured that the storyboarding part will be left to you. It will take two years for us to polish it, and there is enough time. I will study it slowly, but if it doesn't work, I will think of a way and tell Gambia Nuo Pictures will lend some screenwriters."

"It's just that your character setting is a bit too deceptive. How much weight should I lose this time? One hundred and twenty pounds?"

"That's about right. With your height, it's not realistic to lose less than a hundred pounds."

"You want my life, right?"

Lu Ze stood up, took a pot of water and put it on the microwave. He waited quietly for the water to boil. The hand-pour pot used to make Mickey's coffee had not yet been cleaned. Lu Ze didn't mind. He poured the filter paper into the trash can and replaced it with a new one. , pour the coffee powder on the surface, pick up the hot water, start from the center of the coffee powder, and slowly pour the boiling water clockwise.

"Dong dong dong..."

"Enter."

Lu Ze turned around and gave Mickey a look. Mickey reacted and quickly stuffed the script into the table hall before the door was opened. Then he sat back on the table again, with his feet on the stool and his eyes relaxed. He glanced at the person pushing the door open.

As expected, the visitors were none other than the Mao Zi brothers. The two brothers asked Lu Ze how he slept last night. After receiving a positive reply, they dropped the subject, pulled out the stools, sat down honestly, crossed their hands, and waited for everyone. The boss Mickey's words sounded like a bear performing in a circus.

"Want a cup of coffee?"

"No, thank you, Lu. I want to ask for your opinion. After all, the two actors sent by the sponsor are your compatriots. I think your arrangement of their roles is more suitable."

Raising his hand to shake the uncomfortable watch stuck on his wrist, Lu Ze picked up the cup, smelled it, blew on it, then took a sip, sat back in his seat, put the cup away, rubbed the thumb of his right hand and put it on the little finger of his left hand. He put on the ring, crossed his legs, raised his heels, and tapped his calf again and again, glanced at the two of them, and grinned.

"Ha... you don't have to consider my emotions. You can decide the casting yourself. Kesha, you are the director, so it is up to you to make the decision. When do you want them to report it?"

"It's best to leave tomorrow and the day after tomorrow and do training here. I can also see their level and set a shooting schedule. Didn't the contract have been negotiated before? I'll be on call at any time. They should be able to cooperate, right?"

"If you don't cooperate, go back to China and stay away for the rest of your life. If you want to enjoy happiness and be a big star, go somewhere else. You don't have to give them face just because they are my compatriots. Just do whatever you want. If you really don't obey me, just do it." If you go according to the contract, you should sue. If you want to make a living, you should first look at your ability and secondly your consciousness. If you want to make a name for yourself, I don’t have that much dignity.”

Lu Ze gave the two of them a reassurance, so as not to make them think that as a family with the same roots in China, Lu Ze would support his compatriots and put on the shoes of the two brothers.

This is something that cannot happen. In life, it is natural for compatriots to stick together. But at work, if you dare to behave like a compatriot and break the class just because you are a compatriot with Lu Ze, then don’t blame Lu Ze for telling the domestic language. Don’t say anything at that time. It may be a problem whether we can succeed abroad or at home.

Kesha breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to express his understanding. He thought of something else. He let out a sigh and asked, "Then when will the foreign aid you brought from China arrive?"

This was a good question. Lu Ze patted his head, glanced at the time, and thought to himself that he almost forgot. He picked up the car keys on the table and stood up to leave.

"What are you doing here?"

"Don't you talk about foreign aid? I almost forgot the time. He contacted me last night and said that the flight was at noon today and I had to pick him up. You can decide the rest of the things with Mickey, or you can wait until I come back after picking up the people. , Mickey, ask a clockmaker to come over. The pendulum of the standing clock in my office is broken. It only swings and makes no sound. Please fix it for me. That's it. Let's go now."
