    In Los Angeles, it was still early evening before get off work, at the Plystone headquarters.

    Hearing Ye Wei's startled cry, Gotzman breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Weige had a clear understanding of himself, which was good.  Because Tom had already made a move and was inclined to switch to film shooting, but as long as Wei Ge said no, it would be over.

    Without rushing to explain why, he said earnestly: "You wrote very well in your "The Death of Film" about the troubles caused by using film. I think when the first version of "Wedding Day is Coming" was shot, you  Have you seen it on set? Sometimes it makes people crazy."

    "Yeah, film is a naughty thing, but I'm not a film hater. It's troublesome but it can be better. I'm willing to go to the trouble, and I haven't tried it yet. What the hell is going on?"

    Ye Wei's words coming from the phone made Goetzman frown again. Wei Ge must not be tempted to say what he had already thought of: "They feel that with the current cast, they can get better results by shooting on film.  Big returns are a bit wasted using numbers, and poor imaging effects will affect the audience¡¯s senses.¡±

    It still means the same thing, but when you say it, it sounds like the distribution department of DreamWorks is very unprofessional, like a bunch of outsiders in the office who are keen on politics and fantasy, blindly directing the insiders on the set. This is a common thing, and it makes the directors extremely  What I hate is that the office and the set are always at odds.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off out

    "Haha, do they think the audience's eyes are electronic eyes? Come on, of course the digital image quality will be worse, but it is not worse than this. We are not shooting "Days of Heaven". Besides, instead of spending more money to shoot on film,  It¡¯s better to spend the money on post-processing for light and color adjustment. The difference may not be much, so why use film?¡±

    Feeling like a fish has been hooked, Goetzman smiled and said something to be careful about: "Another reason is that they believe that film movies are the orthodoxy, which is conducive to publicity and lobbying for the film's possible impact on awards."

    "Really?"

    Toronto, when Ye Wei heard this reason, he suddenly became energetic, and then thought, it was indeed his thoughts whirling in his mind as he turned the steering wheel of the car and drove towards the Cliffside community. The "Star Wars Episode II" series was shot digitally  All are subject to controversy, but the use of numbers in George Lucas's science fiction masterpiece "Little Miss Daylight" actually has one more disadvantage.

    "You can't give up doing your best just because of troubles and difficulties. That's not the way he makes movies."

    DreamWorks Distribution was right this time, but Gary didn't seem to want to switch to film.  He asked calmly: "Does Tom know?"

    Tom, Tom Hanks?  Nina looked at him. It was the first time she saw him dealing with work matters. She felt it was new and strange. Yunik seemed to be acting, but it happened to be real

    "Tom has no special ideas and prefers to use film. In my opinion, from a production point of view, digital shooting is the most suitable choice for you. We have also made a lot of preparations for this, and suddenly changed to film  , This will harm the preparation results and affect the quality of the film.¡±

    Ye Wei sighed after hearing the words. In fact, it can't be called sudden. There is enough time before the shooting period to make adjustments. There will be many problems, and the most practical one is the budget.

    He said: "It's not that serious. It's just that the current budget has been prepared and there is no money to spend on film, printing and other expenses. But if we increase the budget by one million US dollars, it will not be a problem. This money can be allocated to us according to shares.  The proportion is added together.¡±

    Hearing that people were asking for a million dollars, Nina slightly stuck out her tongue and looked out the window at the scenery.

    "Calm down, it can't be solved by adding more investment, don't be hot-headed." Goetzman's voice was a little anxious, "The shooting cycle is the biggest problem, nine weeks is not long."

    "That's why it costs so much one million. You know, most of this money is prepared to pay overtime. On certain days when conditions permit, we can work overtime, or use the French working system without lunch time, working for 2 hours continuously, at any time.  Eat), make up for the time wasted by taking the trouble to film, and just be more focused on your schedule.

    There are many big shots in our crew, as well as children, so we need to pay more attention when implementing it. I don¡¯t think it¡¯s a big problem, they are all so professional and dedicated.  "

    Ye Wei has already quickly made a preliminary plan. It¡¯s not just a hothead. He wants to solve the problem and make the film better. Why not?

    He was even more excited when he thought about it. Although film is naughty, no filmmaker would be uninterested in it. Film Ihm) is movie Ihm). Maybe after shooting a few times, he doesn't want to shoot film anymore, but now, he wants to shoot it.  , I want to take the best shot of "Little Miss Sunshine"

    "However, the plan you talk about is always easy. Have you ever thought that a film set is a completely different world. What problems arise, how to solve them, and whether they are solved well are all completely different. You have to wake up early every day  Have you ever thought about getting up and watching the samples for an hour?¡±

    "Just nowI think I may have been sleep deprived.  "Ye Weiran smiled. Gary was indeed an opponent. It's not hard to guess why he didn't have confidence in him.

    He said seriously: "Which studio will have no problems? Regardless of film or digital, there will be no problems? I have a professional team, I have the ability, and I have confidence."

    "Some things cannot be done with confidence" Goetzman's tone showed dissatisfaction, "We must consider aspects that are more practical and closer than box office and awards."

    Ye Wei pressed the earplugs and asked, "Then you have a clear attitude?"

    "Yes, boy, my attitude is very clear. I don't support switching to film. I tell Tom the same, and I tell everyone the same. Why bother playing it so big?"

    Ye Wei saw the red light on at the intersection in front of him and slowly stopped the car. Gary had never trusted him very much. From the time he first came into contact with Pretton until now, even if he surprises him many times, the temporary change seems to be unable to be eliminated.  Gary has a deep-rooted age prejudice in his heart. Whenever there is any difficulty, he always doesn't think he can do it well.

    If you don¡¯t believe in yourself, who will believe in you?  Ye Wei said neither humble nor arrogantly: "This matter must be resolved through a meeting. Gary, my attitude is also very clear. As long as it is beneficial to the film, I will face the difficulties."

    "Hey, you better think about it again. I will persuade others. This is really not a smart change."

    "I reserve my opinion."

    The conference call ended unhappily. Ye Wei took off his earplugs, looked at Nina looking from the passenger seat, shrugged and smiled: "An old stubbornness prevents me from becoming an old stubbornness."

    "Like a bad thing?" Nina said with interest, a little concerned, just a little bit, that's VIYR's business.

    When the traffic light turned green, Ye Wei continued to drive and replied: "The bad thing. The interesting thing is that he is not a bad person. Gary Goetzman, he just thinks that I am not good. Girl, don't look at me being called a genius by them.  If you are working on a 600,000 yuan project, you can do whatever you want and think well, as long as you continue to prove yourself and defend yourself, otherwise, if you are not careful, these guys will control you, and you still think they are right. "

    He narrowed his eyes and spoke softly: "Gary, the result of trying to control me is that you just opened the cage that locked the monster."

    This is the first time you see Yunik like this?  Manly, mature, and heart-warming, Nina thought, it was like this when he suddenly smashed the car that day. He was angry.

    She wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say. She really couldn't offer any professional advice or wise words, so she said from the bottom of her heart: "Since Little Miss Sunlight, right? It's your movie. It should be whatever you like."  Just do whatever you do, I support Yunik, so I support you too, VIY¡±

    "I don't have a split personality" Ye Wei was funny, but also heartwarming, "But you are so right, it's my movie, it's up to me to make the decision."

    "Coaxing." Nina rolled her eyes, but smiled.

    It was a really long day on the 2nd. There was jet lag that night. Ye Wei and Nina watched the premiere of "Samantha: An American Girl's Vacation" on TV together.

    The premiere of "Samantha" was very successful. A TV movie without a topic would not get much attention, and no film critics cared about it. However, it received high ratings from the audience, and it was given a high score of - on INDb. It sucks.  Tomato also has an audience love rating of 8, and AnnaSophia Robb's cuteness and stunning performance are naturally the main reason why the audience loves it.

    It can be predicted that when "It's All Daisy's Trouble" is released next February, Anna will have her shining moment.

    But now Anna is very happy, seeing herself on TV, being praised by the only A, Thanksgiving is coming, everything is fine.

    Ye Wei is not planning to go home for Thanksgiving this year, because there is no holiday in Canada for Thanksgiving in the United States. He has to go to school for two days this week, and he wants to go out with Nina on the weekend to stabilize his relationship. Anyway, Thanksgiving is at their house.  It's not the most important holiday. After the holiday, I have to go back for work, and I'll go home then.

    At noon on the 2nd, Ye Wei received an unexpected call from a number he had not called for a long time, Lily.

    Looking at the caller's name on the phone screen, his heart surged and sank again. It had been a while since he had texted again, but it was different when he heard the direct conversation. The last time he met was at the Getty Center, and recently.  He feltit was difficult for him and Lily to be friends.

    Not going to the cafeteria yet, he walked quickly outside the building away from the bustle, connected the phone, and said calmly: "Hello."

    "HPULH, Wei, I am Lily, happy Thanksgiving" Lily seemed a little nervous.

    "Happy Thanksgiving." Ye Wei replied, not quite understanding what she meant. Holiday greetings from ordinary friends?  All right.

    "So are you back in Los Angeles?" Her tone was calm, and there was no trace of nervousness.

    ¡°No, I¡¯m staying in Toronto this year.Passed.  "Ye Wei said, nodding and smiling at the students who passed by to greet him, "I'm still in school, where have you not traveled?  "He was a bit talkative because it didn't feel like her style. She went back to England last year, and then

    "No, I'm staying in Los Angeles, it's nothing I just have a Thanksgiving gift to give you." Lily laughed, "I'll give it to someone else.

    "Wow, thank you. I also prepared Thanksgiving gifts for everyone. I won't give them until I go back next week. The holidays are over, haha." Ye Weigang was about to walk out of the building and stopped again. Don't say any more. No matter what she meant, he just  One meaning: "You know, even though we've had some very unpleasant things, we're still friends, right, my friend?"

    "Yes, yesI think so too, those things are in the past."

    "Well Lily, I have to go to the cafeteria for lunch. If you go here late, you won't get anything good, so that's it for now? OK, bye."

    After ending the call, Ye Wei took a breath and turned around.

    "goodbye."

    Los Angeles, Brentwood, outside the Lemonade restaurant, a girl sat alone behind a small roadside table.

    She lowered her right hand holding the phone, took a long breath, and looked at the gift box on the small dining table, another model of Cook lens.

    "I don't want to be your friend"

    On Black Friday after Thanksgiving, there is a rush to buy every year, but this year there is no sign of the Ye family.

    This weekend, Ye Wei and Nina's family went to the LaaIn ski resort together. This sport is Nina's strength and Ye Wei's weakness. Not only is he weak, he is so ugly on the snow that she almost rolled with laughter.  , Fortunately, after her step-by-step teaching, he, a rookie, has grown up rapidly. He is no longer "walking like an old woman with a cane", but "about the same as when I was eight years old", her original words.

    Also this weekend, another member of the incredible lineup of "Little Miss Sunshine" was announced

    A character line is written below the "Uncle" Frank card: "I just want everyone here to know that I am the most outstanding Proust scholar in the United States." The actor's name above reads: Tim -  Ross

    He is not an ALt superstar, but it still makes fans very excited, and the media can't find any fault.

    Although Tim Roth's career in recent years has not lost the prestige of the 1930s, his roles as Mr. Orange in "Reservoir Dogs" and Archibald Cunningham in "Rob Roy" (Oscar nominee for Best Supporting Actor)  ), "The Pianist"'s 196all make the audience have endless aftertaste of this old man. He can still get supporting roles in projects with production fees of tens of millions, and the protagonists in projects worth millions.

    " To the outside world, Ross's joining is not surprising. He is an actor who loves literary films. Acting in literary films is common, but acting in commercial films is rare. It is a surprise that he does not join such a unique and unique literary project like LM.

    For Ye Wei, this was really a wish come true. How could he have imagined that his dream lineup would eventually become three out of four?

    After Roberts and Hanks joined, he knew there wouldn't be any big problems, because Tim Roth had enough schedules and had nothing to lose. The lineup of the "Big Three" was there, and he could be used to star in LM at any time.  He has swept away his bad luck in recent years and has a second spring on the silver screen.

    So from sending the invitation, reading the script, getting the intention to join, and negotiating the whole process went very smoothly, adding another dazzling light to the lineup.

    The dream lineup is short of De Niro, but Ye Wei has no regrets. Alan Hejin is the best. Ever since Ah Jin joined, the casting process has been full of surprises and luck. Now only "brother" Dihuai is left in the starring role.  The candidate for En has not yet been selected, and auditions are still going on.

    But there is a production problem these days, film?  number?  It still needs to be resolved through a meeting.

    In the new week, Ye Wei asked for leave from school and flew back to Los Angeles.
