Looking at the script in front of him, Yin Jun felt a little headache.

"Bad List".

Its appearance is a bit unexpected and reasonable.

Because this movie is Yu Yunkang's representative work, it is even more famous than "Mountain Dog".

There is also a beautiful side of human nature in "Mountain Dog" and a sense of justice for the father to avenge his daughter.

But "The Evil List" is different. It is full of darkness and destruction. It is a movie that is horrible for the sake of horror.

If you are a person who particularly likes watching this type of movie, you will definitely be willing to watch it, but most movie fans will not like this movie with a strong dark and destructive mood.

Therefore, the box office of "The Evil List" was not very satisfactory, with a total of more than 4 million, which seemed to have only barely recovered the cost.

This is also the disadvantage of horror films in China.

The United States has a unique market for plasma, Europe has a vampire hobby, and Japan has a tradition of loving zombies.

But the atmosphere and culture of Xiangjiang are still very traditional. Even if there are enthusiasts in horror movies, they will not be able to support this market because the base is too small and the number of people is too small.

If it is put in the mainland 40 years later, only one percent of the 1.5 billion people like it, it will be enough to make horror movies profitable and get good returns.

Seeing Yin Jun not speaking, Yu Yunkang was a little nervous.

He has liked the script of "The Evil List" for a long time and bought it a long time ago, but he has never had the chance to shoot it.

It was rare that Yin Jun made a promise to him and said he wanted to support his movie. He immediately took out the script from the safe, and then carefully modified it several times before handing it to Yin Jun.

Judging from what he looks like now, it seems...he doesn't like it?

"The Evil List" is full of suspense and horror, and ordinary people seem to have a headache.

But a genius screenwriter of Yin Jun’s level should not have such concerns. The screenwriter has considered and figured out what type of movie scripts he should have, but it is just what type of screenwriter likes the most and what type he is best at in the end.

Maybe Yin Jun is young and doesn’t like to touch these dark sides, so he doesn’t write such scripts.

"Young Master Jun, this script..." Yu Yunkang said dryly, "Isn't it good enough?"

"In terms of the level of thriller, it will definitely make people like Xiangjiang people, but Mr. Yu, have you ever considered the audience's issues?" Yin Jun asked him.

"You mean..." Yu Yunkang couldn't understand what Yin Jun said.

"The population of Xiangjiang is about 5.5 million, and by 1982, it should have exceeded 6 million." Yin Jun said, "Do you think there are 200,000 fans who like horror thrillers here?"

"No." Yu Yunkang said directly, "It would be amazing if there were 100,000 people."

"The current ticket price is about 10 yuan. If it is 100,000 people, even if it is a fan who occasionally watches horror thriller movies, we can calculate 200,000 yuan. The combined box office result is 2 million yuan." Yin Jun said, "Do you think the box office is a bit low?"

Yu Yunkang's face changed, and he said after a while, "There are also copyrights sold in other places... My "Mountain Dog" sold more than 10 million yuan in additional copyrights."

"Mountain Dog" did have an additional effect after winning the first Xiangjiang Film Awards. No one came to buy copyrights before, and they also bought additional purchases, which made a lot of money for the film company, but Yu Yunkang did not get a penny.

"Do you think the core content of "Mountain Dog" and "The Evil List" are the same?" Yin Jun smiled and analyzed it to you. People from Baodao and Singaporeans prefer gentler movies and don't like this kind of thriller category, so you won't have the copyrights of these two places. Thailand and Malaysia are also similar, which accounts for the majority."

"Japan and South Korea like it." Yu Yunkang said hard, his tone was already a little wrong.

"Yes, Japan and South Korea like it, they like heavy tastes, but are you sure they can understand this culture in China, what is a ghost elixir and how Taoist priests are?" Yin Jun said, "If they are separated from this cultural background, can they understand it? Will the box office be good?"

"Young Master..."

Yu Yunkang was silent for a while and looked up and said, "I am very grateful for your consideration, but I really want to do this movie. If you are unwilling to invest, then forget it... I won't bother you!"

Yin Jun laughed silently and raised his hand: "Sit down first... I told you, can I not invest?"

"You have made it so clear that you are still willing to invest?" Yu Yunkang said in surprise, "This is not something you can make money!"

"The movies don't make money, but that doesn't matter. I'm optimistic about you, the director." Yin Jun said, "I'm telling you this today. I'm not trying to make things difficult for you, but thinking about it. If your movies are too niche, will your future path become narrower and narrower, and in the end you have no way to go?"

This is how Yu Yunkang was in the history of his previous life.

After filming several thriller and horror films in a row, the box office performance was worse than that of the other one. In the end, he completely withdrew from the film industry in 1990 and went to do business.

The reason is that what Yin Jun just said is that the audience he set was too narrow and could not receive praise from the public at all.

The place in Xiangjiang is still too small to accommodate too many categories of movies.

Yu Yunkang nodded after hearing this, "I once thought... If no one really appreciates my movie, then forget it! I'll retire!"

"Is this attitude a little negative?" Yin Jun said lightly, "Why don't you think about how to satisfy your shooting ideas and make the audience like it? Which great film director, do they have to be out of place with the audience? You have a lot of talent but can't show it. Isn't this a pity?"

Yu Yunkang smiled bitterly, "What talent do I have..."

He knew from the beginning that his style was not mainstream.

But the problem is that he just likes to shoot movies like this, likes to explore the meaning between thriller and horror, and uses another way to explore and express human nature.

This style habit was formed when he was studying in the film department. If he asked him to change it, it would be better to let him retire directly.

When filming a movie cannot satisfy your creative ideas first, why is this kind of filming a movie?

"You are talented if you can make a movie like "Mountain Dog"," Yin Jun said seriously, "I will vote for you 2 million. You can choose the actors of Qilin Culture at will. This is the case with this "Black List". But after filming "Black List", you go to the United States and help me shoot a movie. Then you can see what is different from your movie!"

USA?

Yu Yunkang noticed this.

He knew that Yin Jun had acquired three companies in the United States, two of which were entertainment-related.

Especially Lianyi Film Company, which is one of the seven famous Hollywood giants, unexpectedly fell into Yin Jun's hands.

When he first heard the news, he was really excited.

Yin Jun is really bringing glory to us Xiangjiang people!

Unexpectedly, Yin Jun actually said that he would go to the United States to shoot movies, isn’t it just under Lianyi Film Company?

Will you be able to go to Hollywood to make a movie one day?

Yu Yunkang suddenly felt unreal.

He even stuttered and felt that his ability was not enough... I'm afraid he couldn't meet your expectations!"

"Does you have the ability not by saying it, but by doing it." Yin Jun said, "Aren't you graduated from the UCLA Film Department? You know the production process of the United States, so do it! I'll give you a notebook and a budget. Lianyi Film is responsible for recruiting actors for you, and then you are the only one responsible for shooting and editing."

"I……"

Yu Yunkang's chest kept rising and falling, and obviously his mood fluctuated greatly.

He gritted his teeth, breathed a sigh of relief, and then clenched his fists.

After a long time, he nodded heavily, "Mr. Jun, don't worry! I will make the movie even if I try my best!!"

As the saying goes, a man dies for his confidant.

Yin Jun gave him so much support without watching his movies, and even prepared a movie for him in Hollywood. How could this not touch Yu Yunkang?

Hollywood!

How many filmmakers are this dream?

Especially, how could a student like him, who graduated from the film department of a prestigious American university, not dreaming of his reputation in Hollywood one day!?

Now, Yin Jun has given him this opportunity, that is his mentor, and he has to sell his life for Yin Jun!

"Don't be so nervous, Brother Kang." Yin Jun changed his name without any trace. "My movie is very suitable for your characteristics. As long as you play it your best, you can shoot it well."

Yu Yunkang opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he endured it again.

He wanted to see the script, what kind of story it was? Did Yin Jun tailor it for himself?

But now he doesn't even have a contract, so how could he propose to read the script?

Yin Jun's scripts, especially those that can be filmed in Hollywood, start at least from HK$10 million. If they are leaked, who will bear the responsibility and losses?

Yu Yunkang thinks that his character is still very good, but why do you want others to believe in yourself?

If he were Yin Jun, would he trust this director who had little friendship with him so unconditionally?

Stop kidding!

But to his surprise, Yin Jun immediately opened the drawer, took out a file bag from it, and handed it to him.

Yu Yunkang was not a fool, and his mood suddenly surged to the highest point.

He took the document bag with some trembling trembling and saw four words written on it.
