I really don't want to be red

Chapter 181
An Ran hung up the phone, very happy.

I didn't expect things to go smoothly unexpectedly, and it would be much easier to have these two.

You can also find lesser-known ones for the rest.

An Ran started thinking about drawing circles again.

The phone rang again.

Ok?Who is this rushing to the door to fool you?

Jiang Tao?

Holding the phone, An Ran felt a little nervous, maybe Lao Jiangtou realized that I was fooling him.

Feeling apprehensive, An Ran picked up the phone.

"I forgot to tell you something!" Jiang Tao said with a smile: "I was too busy talking about the show with you, but I forgot to tell you about the business!"

Hearing this, An Ran breathed a sigh of relief.

Old Jiang, you are really a real person.

"What's the matter?" An Ran asked.

"There is an old friend here at the film and television base, Xu Haowen, do you know?"

An Ran recalled, "I know, what's wrong!"

Xu Haowen doesn't seem to be very proud these years, but he has made a few films, which have a bad reputation and a poor box office. He belongs to the middle and lower level directors in the circle.

If it continues like this, it is estimated that I will only be able to shoot online in the future.

But in his memory, it won't be long before this director Xu will become popular.

It should be at the end of the year, he took a small-cost phone call, and after its release, the box office earned [-] million.

Become a hot director.

"He has a notebook in his hand that has been photographed for more than ten days, but I read it. The concept of the notebook is very clever, but I always feel that it is not in place. If it is convenient, can you help him look?"

Xu Haowen?
An Ran frowned, it's not that she can't help with this matter, the key is that she is busy with variety shows now!
Huh?Seems like it can help!

An Ran immediately grasped the important point, went to have a look, maybe met a celebrity, and tricked him into participating in a variety show!

Hearing that An Ran didn't say anything for a while, Jiang Tao thought he was unwilling.

Just about to talk, An Ran said, "Okay, or at the film and television base? Then I'll go over tomorrow, it's a bit late today!"

"Okay, then it's settled!"

Jiang Tao hung up the phone happily, feeling a little moved.

Mr. Ren'an is such a busy person, and he still has to prepare a variety show. When he proposed it, he hesitated for a while, but he agreed later.

What does that mean?Explain that people give me this face.

Jiang Tao praised An Ran for a good meal in his heart, and he remembered this favor.

…………

Early the next morning, An Ran showed up at the gate of the film and television base early.

Jiang Tao was already there waiting for him, accompanied by a short-haired director who was about the same age as Jiang Tao. He looked quite strong, but his head was a bit bald.

Seeing him coming, the two rushed to meet him.

When Jiang Tao came over, he gave him a hug and introduced him, "This is Director Xu Haowen."

"This is Mr. An of Chuangyi Entertainment!"

Xu Haowen hurried over to shake hands, with a very low posture.

Whether it is asking An Ran to help read the script, or in terms of his own identity, he deserves such respect.

The three walked and chatted, and soon arrived at the shooting scene.

Xu Haowen called the screenwriter to bring the script to An Ran.

An Ran looked here and there twice, but she didn't see the actor, so she wasn't worried, since she was on the set anyway, so she would be watching sooner or later.

This crew is not suitable, so he finds the next crew to figure out who he is.

With such a huge film and television base, are you afraid that you can't find anyone?
After receiving the script, An Ran froze after reading a few pages.

Isn't this a rough version of "Crazy Stone"?

The general framework is basically the same, but the details and characters are a bit missing.

Although it is also a low-budget comedy film, without the black humor, it feels several grades lower.

If it was actually made according to this script, it would be a shoddy film with low ratings.

Seeing An Ran frowned, Xu Haowen didn't dare to say anything. As a director, he certainly knew the script's shortcomings.

But he hasn't made a film for more than half a year, and his reputation in the industry is not very good, so he is not qualified to choose a job.

But after reading the script, he felt that if he continued to shoot like this, he might fall into a vicious circle.

The less you live, the less you choose, and the less you choose, the less you live.

I had no choice but to ask Jiang Tao for help.

Jiang Tao took a look at the book, and felt that the idea was good, the plot was rubbish, and there were many places that were maliciously funny, and the jokes were under the hood, so it was not a good book.

But seeing Xu Haowen's dejected look, he couldn't bear it, so he called An Ran.

Wait until you finish reading the book.

Xu Haowen looked at him expectantly.

An Ran said: "The idea is good, but the details are not enough, and there are not enough laughs."

The two of them cheered up, and Jiang Tao said: "Can you change it?"

"can!"

Hearing this, Xu Haowen muttered for a long time before saying: "That Mr. An...our investment in this drama is small, only 300 million!"

The meaning in the words is that you can help to change it, but there is no money for you.

And don't change too much, you don't have extra money to hire big stars.

what!
Are you going to prostitute me for nothing?
An Ran was depressed, he planned to come to prostitute others for free, but he didn't think that he had already positioned him as someone who was prostituted for free.

But it doesn't matter, Jiang Tao's face must be given.

This helped, even if he realized that he was fooling, what else could Jiang Tao say?
"It's not about the money!" An Ran said, "There's no need to change the script too much, I'll just adjust it for you."

The screenwriter behind was stunned.

Is this person so awesome?A little modification can make the rubble shine, I really don't believe this evil.

Before Jiang Tao and Xu Haowen could say anything, he went to get a pen.

An Ran took the pen and began to revise the script.

After more than an hour passed, An Ran carefully read the revised script again.

That's what makes it interesting.

He handed the script to Xu Haowen and said, "Look!"

Xu Haowen was looking forward to it but also a little apprehensive, but he read the book.

After reading only two pages, my hands were shaking, and the screenwriter behind was breathing heavily, and their eyes were full of admiration and shock.

An Ran added two characters to the script, an international thief Mike, and an important character Heipi.

These two characters collide with each other, connecting several lines perfectly.

At the same time, the lines were standardized into dialects, and those malicious and funny lines were slightly modified by him, and they were immediately upgraded several grades.

The whole script is full of black humor from beginning to end.

What's even more admirable is that all of this is done on the basis of the original script, that is to say, there are only two more roles in the cost.

This means that the cost does not increase much.

After reading it for a while, Jiang Tao said seriously: "Old Xu, this time you have to thank Teacher An very much. This book was shot, and the box office is conservatively estimated to be 5000 million..."

Xu Haowen nodded repeatedly.

The box office of 5000 million is not worth mentioning to others, but his investment here is only 300 million, and the box office of 5000 million is excluding the share of theaters and other necessary expenses, making a net profit of 2500 million.

Eight times the cost of benefits!
This number alone can get him out of trouble, and it is not a problem to become a second-tier director!
