Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2200 Shocking Hollywood

Lin Daoqiu plans to release "Human Purge Project" next month.

This movie can be said to be very controversial. Lin Daoqiu believes that some people who have watched this movie after the movie is released may find it unacceptable, but those who like this type of movie may appreciate this movie. add.

If Lin Daoqiu did not develop in Hollywood but stayed in Xiangjiang, then he would never put this kind of movie on the big screen, because this is completely contrary to the education Lin Daoqiu received before.

"Mr. Lin, I have to praise you. The script of "Human Purge Project" is really well written. I didn't think so at first, but I have been completely moved by your talent since I filmed it."

Oliver Stone's words sounded like he was flattering Lin Daoqiu, but anyone who knew him knew that Oliver Stone would not easily tell others that.

Since he praised Lin Daoqiu like this in front of everyone, it means that he really likes the script written by the other party.

"I am very happy to be praised by Oliver, but I have to do the editing of this play myself."

Lin Daoqiu could more or less guess the reason why Oliver Stone suddenly flattered him, that is, he probably wanted the editing rights of "Human Purge Project".

In Hollywood, many directors don't even have the right to edit a show after it's been filmed.

There are many reasons for this situation. Among them, producers and producers have the greatest say in the film. They decide the funding, script, actors, and how to shoot a film, and the director is even more powerful. Mostly just one of the members who came to perform the shooting task.

It is difficult for many directors to get the final editing rights throughout their lives, even some big-name directors are the same.

Although Oliver Stone knew that such a situation would happen, when Lin Daoqiu said something to him, Oliver Stone still had a regretful expression on his face.

"I understand, I can understand."

Although Oliver Stone was a little depressed, in fact, he never expected to get the final editing rights of the show from the beginning, so since he didn't place any hope at the beginning, he would naturally not be disappointed, but this is not the case. To say that Oliver Stone really can't participate in the editing of the movie.

He can still participate in the editing of the movie and can also cut the version he wants, but the version cut by the director will not be screened in theaters but will be made into video tapes for sale, which is more or less a kind of compensation for them Bar.

Lin Daoqiu doesn't take editing rights very seriously, but the premise is that the director must be someone he trusts, otherwise there is no way to cut a work that satisfies Lin Daoqiu.

From the current point of view, Oliver Stone still can't become Lin Daoqiu's trusted person, and this drama is quite special, so Lin Daoqiu plans to play in person.

What Oliver Stone didn't know was that Lin Daoqiu hadn't edited a film himself for a long time. When Richardson and Carls heard that Lin Daoqiu was going to edit a film for "Human Purge Project", their immediate reaction was Very surprised.

Because "Human Purge" doesn't look like a movie that will explode, and it is still a restricted-rated movie. At least it can't attract family audiences. There may be more sales of videotapes than the overall box office by then.

But it is such a movie that Lin Daoqiu can cut the film himself, which has to be said to be a bit unbelievable for them.

The filming of "Human Purge Project" was successfully completed a week later, and the next day, Lin Daoqiu brought a group of assistants to the Magic Studio's studio in LA.

As the person in charge here, Dykstra naturally had to put down the work at hand to accompany Lin Daoqiu to cut the film.

However, "Human Purge Project" is not a special effects movie, but an action movie, so Dykstra can't really help Lin Daoqiu in this regard.

"Is this movie...really going to be released?"

After Dykstra accompanied Lin Daoqiu to edit the film for two days, he had watched the film seven or eight times.

For this movie called "Human Purge Project", Dykstra had a very bad impression after watching it. He even didn't understand why Lin Daoqiu made such a movie.

"Do you feel bad?"

Lin Daoqiu turned to look at Dykstra and asked with a smile.

Dykstra nodded directly. If possible, he really didn't want the movie to be released by then, because it was too controversial.

"Movies are like this. Although it seems that the possibility of this kind of thing happening is zero now, anything can happen in the future world. I can't say anything. I just wrote one of the possibilities."

If you really want to ask Lin Daoqiu whether there will be a plot like "Human Purge Project" in the future world, then he can tell the other party with certainty that it will not.

But this only represents Lin Daoqiu's thoughts at this time. As for whether such a tragedy will occur in the future, only those in the future will know.

"I hope that the plot in "Human Purge" will never happen in the world, because it is too cruel."

Dykstra shook his head while talking, he didn't like this type of movie, even if he paid him to see it, he wouldn't go.

If it weren't for Lin Daoqiu editing the film here, it is estimated that Dykstra would not even think about watching this kind of film.

"I believe at least not while we are alive, but as for the future, it is better not to think about it."

After chatting with the other party for a while, Lin Daoqiu rejoined the ranks of film editing.

After Lin Daoqiu was busy for half a month, "Human Purge Project" finally finished all the post-production, and there was only less than a week left before the release.

In order to attract more audiences for this drama, MGM's publicity department has already started promoting it to the outside world a week after "Human Purge" entered the post-production company.

When the public saw that the producer and screenwriter of this drama was Lin Daoqiu, they subconsciously had huge expectations for this drama.

However, when these people came outside the theater and looked at the posters hanging on the wall, many viewers who originally planned to buy tickets to watch "Human Purge Project" had already started to retreat.

Because Lin Daoqiu asked someone to write a paragraph on the poster.

"Viewers with physical illnesses or poor tolerance should not watch."

When they saw the warning slogan on the poster, everyone realized that this drama might not be as simple as they thought.

And the news that Lin Daoqiu's new movie will be released soon spread among the media. The name of the movie "Human Purge Project" is already a very good gimmick, but as for what story this movie tells, that's the question. You can only know after entering the venue. Now everyone is just guessing, and they don't know who is telling the truth.
