Lin Zixuan flipped through the outline of the script in his hand, which was only two or three pages, and the writing was quite brief.
The plot of this book called going home is not complicated.,There are two timelines.,One is 1980.,Explain the cause of the incident.,The other is 1997.,Tell the outcome of the matter.。
The cause and effect relationship is clear, forming a complete story chain.
From the current point of view, it is unlikely that such a fierce family conflict will occur for five yuan.
But in 1980, it was reasonable, when the salary of ordinary workers was only a few dozen yuan a month, and five yuan could play a big role in a family.
In addition, the background of this family is already complicated, it is a remarried family, and the relationship between family members is not stable.
Then the tragedy caused by a family conflict has a reasonable basis and can convince the audience.
Seventeen years later, Xiaohong leaves prison and is about to return home, what she will face and whether she can be accepted by society and her family is an important expression of this film.
In these seventeen years, society has undergone tremendous changes.
In 1980, the country had just reformed and opened up, and large-scale infrastructure construction had not yet begun, and now the capital is full of high-rise buildings, cars everywhere, television is no longer a rare thing, and mobile phones and computers are gradually becoming popular.
Xiaohong's seventeen years in prison have been out of touch with society, and she is facing a completely new world after she comes out.
Prison is not just about letting prisoners out, but also about helping them adapt to society and start a new life.
So there is the role of a female prison police officer, which represents the administrative organ, to teach Xiaohong how to live outside the prison, how to communicate with her family, and play the role of a bridge and guide.
The female police officer and Xiaohong support each other, so the structure of this film is relatively complete.
If Xiaohong is left alone to face a strange world, she will be panicked and overwhelmed, which may eventually lead to tragedy.
Of course, if you shoot it like this, it's another story, maybe more in-depth, but it's too dark to be censored.
Therefore, the role of female police officers is not only indispensable, but also very important.
"This book is very good.,It's just that it still needs to be improved.,Especially the details.。
Lin Zixuan commented, "How to take a different picture of this short journey home, you have to think carefully, for example, Xiaohong must be under unified management in prison, and there is something to report to the police officer, this habit cannot be changed for a while after being released from prison, whether it is eating or doing things, you will report it, you have to take a good picture of the interaction between her and the female police officer." ” "Got it, dude."
Lin Xiaoling nodded and said, "I will continue to collect information and write the script." ” This outline can be recognized by Lin Zixuan, and Lin Xiaoling is very happy.
Lin Zixuan is recognized as a gold medal screenwriter in the circle, he has won the Golden Horse Award, and a script sells for a high price of hundreds of thousands, and his words naturally carry weight, which shows that this script is really good.
Now, Lin Xiaoling is more confident.
"Okay, you start preparing, I'll invest in you."
Lin Zixuan should admit it.
According to Lin Zixuan's estimate, this homecoming is a small-budget literary film, the investment of two million is enough, the main actors are four or five people, the scene is not complicated, there are no big scenes, and post-production is not troublesome.
This is the good thing about documentary-style films, abandoning the pompous stage and high technology, returning to the film itself and facing life.
To put it bluntly, it's to save money.
This is actually a characteristic of the sixth generation of directors, who write their own scripts and film the current social life.
"I'll make the budget and submit it to the company."
Lin Xiaoling said seriously.
When she didn't graduate before, she probably thought it was nothing to use Lin Zixuan's money to make films, who let them be a family.
Now that she has stepped into society, she has to follow the rules, or formalize.
She has to make a complete shooting plan and budget, and write clearly how the film will make money, instead of taking money to make a movie in a daze, only to find that the film can't make money after filming.
Lin Xiaoling also has to form her own team and pull over the classmates who got along in the film school.
Every director has come over like this, from small to large, from scratch, one step at a time.
"Don't be so serious, even if you lose it, it's okay, I can afford to pay your brother, just shoot it well."
Lin Zixuan said with a smile, "If you have time to watch similar films, it should be inspiring." ” This is true, even if you don't use the funds of Good Dream Company, Lin Zixuan has no problem investing by himself.
His royalty income this year is not low, not to mention the living foreign royalties, Xiaoxue's adventure alone has millions of income in China, and the recent Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon TV series has become a big hit, and it has sold well with books.
By the end of the year, there will be at least eight million or so royalties.
Of course, even if he is rich, Lin Zixuan is not extravagant enough to take two million for his sister to play with.
He feels that this film will not necessarily lose money when he goes home, although this theme is a little heavy, it is full of positive energy, and the noble point is that it is full of the brilliance of human nature.
Giving help and care to the disadvantaged groups is in line with the country's general policy, and there is no problem for films to be screened in theaters through censorship.
Perhaps it can also get the support and promotion of the General Administration, which can be sought.
Moreover, films with this kind of theme have a natural advantage in winning awards, and the judges have a good impression of films that can show human nature.
After a comprehensive evaluation, Lin Zixuan felt that this theme had potential and was worth investing in.

Looking at the back of Lin Xiaoling's departure, Lin Zixuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion, his sister has grown up.
In October, the financial turmoil in Asia intensified.
At the same time, Baodao gave up the exchange rate of the Taiwan dollar, and the Taiwan dollar depreciated sharply, putting a lot of pressure on the Hong Kong stock market.
Xiangjiang's economy is facing a great test, and entrepreneurs in Xiangjiang have come out with money to save the market.
This is a big deal, and it has nothing to do with Lin Zixuan, he just asked Yu Dong to suspend contact with Xiangjiang Bank.
At such a time, banks will definitely shrink their business, and it is impossible to lend money to film and television companies to make films, and the film and television industry in Xiangjiang itself is in trouble and cannot extricate itself.
In this way, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon's financing work came to a halt and waited for the financial storm to stop.
This financial turmoil has a certain impact on the country, mainly in foreign trade, the film and television industry has not been affected much, except for a few co-produced films that have been suspended, everyone should basically do what they should do.
This year, the good dream company did not have a film to impact the New Year, and the second half of the year was quite easy, and the foreign daughter-in-law local lang mainly relied on Chen Changle's influence in Guangdong Province.
Lin Zixuan focused on the TV series and was lurking in the filming. t1706231537:
