There is no uncommon conflict between screenwriters and directors in Hollywood, and it also happens occasionally in projects that operate relativity entertainment, but it is basically controlled within the scope of crew debate and prevents the conflict from being expanded outside the crew.

Filming and production are never harmonious. Two people will have different opinions when they are together. Three people can make trouble until they have no water to drink. There are dozens or hundreds of people. If the relationship is not coordinated well, it is not exaggerating to say that the crew will explode at any time.

Not to mention anything else, a group of elementary school students stay together will make noise, let alone adults.

But contradictions and debates must be controlled within a reasonable range.

Relativity Entertainment has a good control over this.

Because of the film projects under Relativity Entertainment, the crew must maintain the first authority of the producer and the absolute authority of the director on the set.

If a screenwriter and director are out of control on the set, firing a screenwriter is always the first choice.

However, most screenwriters and directors have basically been in business. Screenwriters with clear minds know their position in the industry and will not be stupid enough to challenge the director's authority.

But there are always exceptions.

A screenwriter hired by Shahai Entertainment ran directly to Ronan when he went to the crew of the "Life and Death Fight" in preparation and said a lot of bad things about director Uvi Ball.

Since Uvi Ball also serves as the director and producer of the crew, Ronan specially found the producer manager who handled the daily affairs of the crew and asked roughly the situation.

"Mr. Belson has been targeting Director Ball for not once," said the producer. "Director Ball is generous in his work, but Mr. Belson has always believed that there are serious problems with Director Ball's preparations."

Ronan frowned and asked, "What problems do he think are there?"

The producer recalled it and said briefly: "He thought Director Ball's handling of the plot was too simplistic, even..." He touched his nose embarrassedly: "Even the brainless, we cannot highlight the theme of the script he created."

"What theme?" Ronan grasped the key.

The producer said: "Humanistic thinking."

Ronan said directly: "What kind of humanistic thinking is needed for such a game adaptation movie? I'll talk to Uvi Ball."

When he found Uvi Ball, who was busy auditioning for actors, Ronan asked: "A screenwriter named Paulson just came to me to complain about you, how did you think about it."

Uvi Ball touched his increasingly bald forehead and said, "I hired this screenwriter from outside. I think he is indeed talented, but I didn't expect he thought too much."

Ronan asked, “Is the script completed?”

"It's done," said Uvey Ball. "He wrote a good script except for something unrealistic."

Ronan looked at Uvi Ball, and thought of the screenwriter who could make Uvi Ball think that the screenwriter who wrote a good script was probably not very reliable.

Brother Bao is indeed outstanding in his ability, but his level of being a director is a shortcoming.

"The script is finished, pay him and let him leave the crew." Ronan had no hesitation when dealing with such a small matter: "You shoot according to your own ideas."

Uvi Ball thought for a while and said, "It's good."

Seeing that Ronan didn't like the screenwriter, Uvi Ball also made a decision and called the producer to inform the screenwriter Paulson to get out of here.

The crew signed a screenwriter contract with Paulson. As long as Uvy Ball thinks it is not necessary, Paulson has no reason to stay in the crew.

This is just a small episode. Uvi Ball accompanied Ronan into the studio. The crew was auditioning. Since most of the main characters were women, beautiful actresses could be seen everywhere.

Many of them are obviously model-born.

Most women who have experienced professional modeling training have obvious appearances.

"There is only one theme in this movie." Uvi Ball's idea was very simple: "Beauty plus cruel fight!"

Ronan asked, “Similar to Kill Bill?”

Uvi Ball denied: "No, not that." He explained: "The action scenes in "Kill Bill" are mixed with too many kung fu elements, which look flashy. What I want to adopt is the style of unlimited fighting, taking the realistic, cruel and bloody route."

If Paul Greengras said this, Ronan must be looking forward to it, but just listen to the realistic and cruel action film made by Brother Bao.

The biggest advantage of Uvi Ball is never discouraged by the outside world: "I invited two unlimited fighting coaches as the action guides of the crew, and invited Tris Stretus, known as the queen of wrestling, as the actor of the villain."

He smiled and said, "They are very interested in being able to participate in Hollywood film production, especially Tris Stretus, who regards Dwayne Johnson as his idol and believes that Dwayne Johnson's path is also suitable for her development."

Luo Nan nodded slightly. Apart from the director's talent and ability, Brother Bao did nothing else.

"Where is the heroine?" Ronan asked: "Is there a suitable candidate?"

Uvi Ball said: "For all the main female characters, I plan to use female models with a certain acting foundation, especially those who have participated in the Victoria's Secret show. Most of them are physically strong, and boxing is one of the commonly used fitness methods and has a certain foundation."

Ronan said: "It is difficult to invite Victoria's Secret Angels based on the crew's budget."

Uvi Ball smiled and said: "Most of the models participating in the Victoria's Secret show every year are not Victoria's Secret signing angels. Some of them should be interested in starring in movies. After all, many Hollywood movie stars have changed careers from models. As for the pay, I am confident that I can convince them."

Ronan said: "You are responsible for the crew, and you are fully responsible for it."

"I think the market prospects of this movie are OK, and with the reputation of relativity entertainment, it is not difficult to attract female models to participate." Uvey Ball still wants Ronan to check: "Ronan, is there a future for the combination of beauty and cruel and bloody fighting?"

Ronan thought for a while and said, "It should be OK. Wu Wei, the crew has used so many actresses, remember to make more fuss about feminism, especially the ending of men saving the world at the end of the film."

Uvi Ball was about to grasp Ronan's idea: "Don't worry, it must be a woman who will save the world."

His directing skills have not improved, but his understanding of the market environment is clearer: "Ronan, I have carefully watched all the female action movies in the past two years, and the female action characters in Hollywood are becoming more and more popular and bloody."

Ronan looked at Uvi Ball: "Tell me, look."

He has always had an idea that if the movies that Brother Bao filmed fail one day, he would not give up this talent, but instead let Brother Bao join the film production department related to Shahai Entertainment.

Such a talent who is more reliable in other aspects except for the director, can never be easily let go of it.

Of course, the director is also Bao Ge’s advantage now. How many directors dare to come out to challenge the critics on their fists?

In the past, no professional film critic has ever regarded himself as a guide to the industry? For any director or actor, he would criticize him as much as he wants, and scold him as much as he wants.

If the emergence of the Internet has broken the public opinion voice of film critics, then Brother Bao’s boxing match will shatter the final protective shell of film critics from reality.

Brother Bao’s iron fist is specialized in treating film critics’ dissatisfaction.

Uvee Ball did study it and said one by one: "The two female action films, "The Angel of Thunderbolt" and "The Tomb Raider", can be said to be the symbol of the rise of this theme. Both movies are very small in scale. Angelina Jolie is fine. Charlie's three angels are not fighting, they are dancing at all, so the audience is quickly tired of them, and the sequel is not successful."

Ronan was a little surprised, but he didn't interrupt.

"In comparison, large-scale female action movies have achieved good results in the past two years." Uvi Ball's speech was muffled, but it makes sense: "The scales of "The Legend of the Night" and "Resident Evil" are both very large, with plasma soaring, and Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill" has made this genre reach a small ** in the market."

He said seriously: "Now in Hollywood action movies, there will always be one or two female-beating characters appearing. Close-fitting fighting movies with direct personal injury may last for a long time in the future."

Ronan agreed: "What you said makes sense."

Uvi Ball said again: "I designed a selling point for the film. In addition to the cruel close-up fight, the camera will be aimed at the most attractive parts of the beautiful and sexy actresses, so that the hormones in the film will soar!"

This is a very low-level and clichéd shooting method, but it is also an effective means to attract audiences.

The most typical example is that in "Transformers" filmed by Michael Bay, the close-up of Meghan Focus repairing a car must have left a deep impression on countless people.

This is how Brother Bao is smart, knowing how to attract audiences.

Instead of being like some directors, they are just as capable as they are, but they still have to make the films in a foggy way, which is strange if the audience likes them.

Uvi Ball's intention is very obvious, which is to let the film's plasma and hormones fly together, and there are metaphors of sexual and violent everywhere.

Ronan finally emphasized one point: "Although it is a game adaptation, the character design must be well designed, close to the needs of real life and fighting. Go and don't make the shapes in the movie."

A real-life action movie that requires realistic style, makes the characters look like they are in the game, and they really make people die!

"I understand." Uvi Ball said with a smile: "This video, which is said to be a game adaptation, is actually more of a borrowing of the game's name."

In other words, it is also a tricking game fans into entering the theater at that time.
