Hollywood, USA, top movie company, in the boss's office.
Henry the Elephant looked at Bill the Rabbit following Yi Feiyang, his eyes were like a big bad wolf checking whether the little rabbit should be stewed or boiled.
Rabbit Bill shrank a little and couldn't help but hide behind Yi Feiyang. After all, the shadow of the famous tree and the "evil name" of Henry the Elephant still made Rabbit Bill timid.
Yi Feiyang couldn't help but kicked Rabbit Bill from below, telling him to stand up straight and not lie down.
"Boss, I thought about it for a moment. Although filming with you is very prestigious, I still like to go back to my own company and work as a coward... Therefore, why don't you introduce me as the assistant director? Let's just forget about it.
!" Rabbit Bill whispered, preparing to run away.
Yi Feiyang grabbed his collar and pulled him forward.
"Mr. Henry, this is Mr. Bill, the assistant director I want to introduce to you. He is now quite famous in Hollywood. The thriller "Terror Cruise" he shot was very good at the box office."
Rabbit Bill tried his best to look like a "popular fried chicken", with a bright smile and a graceful demeanor, but when Yi Feiyang grabbed his neck, he looked like a Peking duck hanging on a hook!
Henry the Elephant was very considerate of Yi Feiyang and looked at Rabbit Bill carefully, his eyes were fascinated, with hunger and thirst mixed with a trace of doubt, and doubt mixed with a trace of helplessness...
It's like an old prostitute who is waiting for sex and has to find an old and beautiful woman to vent his anger.
The reason is that you don’t have a choice!
"Tell me, what do you think of the upcoming movie?"
The questions began.
Billy Rabbit was excited and said, "Blockbuster. We must go the route of blockbuster!"
"Oh. Why?" Henry the Elephant felt very novel about this argument.
Billy took a deep breath to sort out his emotions and state.
"Mr. Henry, as a veteran in this industry and the big boss of the underground film market, you should know very well that from the 1920s to the 1950s, most adult films were shot in 16cm, and the length of a single reel was about 10~12cm.
Minutes, because a single roll of film is easier to hide. And almost all of them are silent films. But there may still be a lot of plots and dialogues, and the dialogues are presented in the form of subtitles. Therefore, almost all those who shoot this kind of subject are small underground film companies.
, the equipment is simple, the staff is simple, and there is no need for any advertising, just a 16 cm camera is enough!”
"But in 1976, this year was the year of the explosion of pornographic films in the United States. Due to the influence of the concept of freedom in the United States, many serious film companies also began to shoot adult films. According to statistics from the American Adult Film Association, in 1976**
The revenue of the movie is 16% of the total national movie box office? More than 100 such movies were produced that year..."
Faced with Bill Rabbit's talk, Henry the Elephant couldn't help but start to look at the little rabbit with admiration.
I thought to myself that he spoke clearly and eloquently, and that he looked like an expert. No, I had to give him a test to prevent him from just talking nonsense.
"So dear Mr. Bill, since you said that 1976 was the most prosperous year for this kind of movies, then I want to know, which movie is the most important in your impression?"
At this moment, it was like a teacher asking a question. If the "wonderful content" that Bill had just mentioned were all memorized by rote reading the information, then Henry the Elephant's question would definitely give him pause.
Rabbit Bill was startled for a moment and said without hesitation: "Of course it's the Alice in Wonderland film produced by Losco and directed by Budtown!"
"Oh, really? What do you know about this play?" Henry the Elephant continued to take the exam.
"Well, if I remember correctly, this play should be a retelling of Lewis Carroll's fairy tale. Alice in the film is an innocent and pure librarian who refuses her boyfriend's advances because she is too conservative and repressed. But in After a series of bizarre encounters in Dreamland, she began to awaken to her own body."
…
"God, it can be said that this is a rare and superb song-and-dance pornographic film in the history of American films! The songs and music are produced by famous artists, and the actors are all good at singing and dancing, making the whole film full of dazzling and joyful playfulness. atmosphere……"
This time Henry the elephant was really stupid.
This rabbit is not simple. If I have 120% pornographic skills, this guy has at least 99%!
Well, it seems that dear Yi Feiyang did not introduce the wrong person, this guy can be trained!
Rabbit Bill didn't know that his impression score had increased significantly, and he was about to continue his rant, but Henry the Elephant interrupted him and said: "Okay, man, you have proven your research on this type of movie. Yes, very good! You are very talented in this area! However, the research and understanding of this knowledge does not mean that you can clearly see the future direction of shooting... So I guess the route you proposed before to take the blockbuster route should not be Is it your own idea?"
Henry's little eyes flashed with sharp light, turning his elephant, which originally looked so fat and naive, into an extremely ferocious lion.
Involuntarily, under such sharp eyes, Rabbit Bill confessed, "Yes, dear Mr. Henry, nothing can escape your eyes. This is what Boss Yi taught me, and yes, it was all his suggestions." !”
Yi Feiyang, who had always been a listener or bystander, didn't expect Rabbit Bill to be so low-level and betray him directly.
"Ahem, I just reminded you a little bit, yes, a little bit..."
"Haha, dear Yi, don't be so modest anymore. Why don't you tell me, what route should this play take? I want to hear it from you, tell me in detail..." Henry the Elephant seemed to have caught him. The kid who cheated seemed particularly happy.
Seeing that he couldn't escape, Yi Feiyang gave Rabbit Bill a look of "contempt", and Bill stuck out his tongue, looking innocent.
"As Bill just said, with the development of ** movies, with the continuous emergence of DV cameras and home video cameras, the shooting threshold is getting lower and lower. So you will find that shooting this kind of scenes now will become more and more rough and increasingly rough. Without taste, it will be further away from classics and art... Therefore, we must change our thinking and take a route that is different from low-cost production, that is, make the scripts in our hands bigger and stronger! For example, this year, then The blockbuster "Saving Private Ryan" is not a super hit. Top Company can completely adapt the story, and as long as it can avoid infringement, it can produce a top-notch version of "Saving Rachel"!"
"Saving Rachel"?!
War Movies?
**piece?!
Yi Feiyang's words made Henry the Elephant burnt on the outside and tender on the inside. Is it possible to make a super blockbuster into a pornographic movie?
"But dear Yi, the content of this story..."
"Oh, as for the content of the story, it's very simple. It just says that the female soldier Rachel was originally a beautiful little girl. She originally had three brothers. All of them were killed on the battlefield. Her father had fought in the war before. But
Disabled, in short, a loyal family, except for women, almost all the men died... At this time, the fascists came again, and her disabled father was drafted into the army again, but our beautiful woman risked her life and cut her hair.
With short hair, he put on a military uniform, bid farewell to his hometown, picked up a gun, replaced his father in the army as a man, and became an American soldier..."
There is no doubt that Yi Feiyang's joke about "joining the army in place of his father" is based on the classic Chinese story "Mulan".
Henry the Elephant is not an idiot, not to mention that this year Disney Film Company happened to produce a major movie "Mulan", which did very well at the box office.
After hearing Yi Feiyang's story, Henry the Elephant immediately shouted: "Oh God, isn't this your Chinese 'Mulan'? Yes, it must be, such a cute girl, she would rather fight alone for her father.
Battlefield! I adore her!”
"But what about the plot behind it? Could it be that a group of soldiers went to rescue her, and then in the trench under fire..." Henry the Elephant and Bill the Rabbit brainstormed together, and all kinds of scenes that were boiling for children poured out.
.
"Oh God, this idea is so great! In order to repay her kindness, or to survive in the war, the heroine 'rolled into one' with the soldiers who came to save her. Just imagine, cannonballs exploded around you, and the soil was in front of you.
Splashing, but the beauty is gasping under him... What kind of state is this?" Rabbit Bill praised without hesitation.
"Boss, I admire you so much. Only you can come up with such a thrilling and exciting plot!"
"This story about "Saving Rachel, the Female Soldier" sounds really good!" Henry the Elephant said, "I'm going to have people prepare for this show right now. Shit, I'm going to make those people laugh at me."
Look, porn movies can be shot like this!"
Yi Feiyang didn't expect that his casual idea would make the boss in front of him so excited.
However, Yi Feiyang forgot that his "ghost idea" simply exceeded the cognition of the boss Henry.
In previous lives, it was not uncommon for many excellent American blockbusters to be adapted into adult films by unscrupulous businessmen. The most memorable one is "Avatar", which is known as "the most expensive in history"!
It is said that this "Avatar" is a remake of an adult blockbuster produced by the famous American adult film production company "Hustler" over several months with an investment of US$1 million. It is known as "the most expensive adult film in history". In the 3D blockbuster "Avatar"
"After" took the world by storm, unscrupulous film producers immediately announced that they would make an adult remake. In just three or four months, "Ah Fanta" was released.
In fact, this is not the first time that a blockbuster film has been parodied. "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Batman", both of which have great status in American film history, have been parodied by adult film companies. Among them, the adult parody version of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was still in the American Adult Film Festival.
It has won 29 awards and has even been used as a teaching material by some film professors. It is not a new thing for blockbuster movies to be parodied. Industry experts said that "if a movie is not a hit, film producers will still look down upon it."
It can be said that in terms of spoofing Hollywood super blockbusters and turning classics into salty and wet, there is nothing you can't think of, and there is nothing they can't shoot.
But it's only 1998 now. Many Chinese people are still watching Category III movies in video halls. Many Hong Kong people tried to shoot "Jade Futon" in the water. However, Americans far away in the West are not shameless enough to catch whoever is filming whomever they want.
The transcendent realm of tampering with Hollywood blockbusters into salty and wet films.
Yi Feiyang undoubtedly made a bad start... although his original intention was just to use Spielberg's drama to create a copycat classic.
Seeing that Henry the Elephant was about to prepare for the filming of "Saving Rachel the Female Soldier", Yi Feiyang was shocked.
"Ahem, don't be in such a hurry, take your time."
"No, I can't wait. This drama must be released on Christmas, haha, let us Top also celebrate this brilliant Christmas!" Henry the Elephant was gearing up, his body trembling with excitement.
"I've even thought of a promotional slogan, and it's called, 'This Christmas is a little bit colorful'!"
Yi Feiyang, speechless.
Seeing Yi Feiyang standing still without any excitement, Henry the Elephant couldn't help but asked: "Dear Yi, do you have no confidence in the upcoming filming of this drama?"
Yes, do I really have no confidence?!
Yi Feiyang asked himself.
But having said that, Yi Feiyang has no movie shooting plans recently. The most important thing is that he is a restless person and likes to challenge himself and various movie themes.
Ever since he agreed to Henry the Elephant to help Top Company shoot a classic pornographic film, Yi Feiyang's mind began to spin rapidly, and he habitually started planning. Otherwise, when the other party asked him just now, Yi Feiyang would not have been able to
He told the script of the play "Saving Rachel" in one breath.
Now, when people asked him if he had confidence, Yi Feiyang laughed.
Yes, do you really need to let go and have a big fight?!
Yi Feiyang asked himself in his heart.
Little did he know that deep down in his heart at this moment, he actually had an ambition to work hard to make a good adult film, because in his previous life, he was a super fan of director Li Yin, and even more so.
Loyal fans of the legendary classic "Lust, Caution"!
Who says porn can't be great?
Who says adult movies can’t make good stories?!
Who says that as a director you have to make serious movies?
I am not serious, what can you do to me?!
"Don't worry, since it's a movie that I, Yi Feiyang, agreed to shoot, I will do it with all my heart! So, you don't have to doubt me, let alone my ability!"
"I understand, haha, you are an expert, otherwise I wouldn't do everything possible to ask you for help!" Henry the Elephant was naive, "But as the director of this play, it is more or less possible to shoot a movie with this theme.
It will affect your personal reputation..."
Of course Yi Feiyang understood what Henry the Elephant said, pornographic films might turn into pornographic films, and pornographic films are the biggest stain on a director.
Damn Hollywood people are all so fucked up, they like to grab other people's pigtails, and then accuse you of being impure, not kind, and too vulgar...
"So, dear Yi, for the sake of your own reputation, how about you give me a pseudonym...for example, Tom, Sam, Bloom or something like that?"
"No need!" Yi Feiyang raised his eyebrows and said, "Since I took over the filming of this movie, I won't hide it and be an invisible person. I chose the movie and walked the road. I, Yi Feiyang, My name will never change!"
Looking at Yi Feiyang's vow, Henry the Elephant suddenly came up with a Chinese word---
So passionate! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better novels and faster updates!
