Chapter 89 I'm Still a Student

It is impossible for director Zeng to spend money like the top teams abroad, because the total budget is here, but he can learn from foreign teams and spend half of the funds on special effects.

But the 3000 million that Meng Ran said moved him.

Based on the current domestic film market, if you dare to spend 3000 million yuan for special effects, the total budget will be at least [-] million yuan. This is a relatively reliable crew.

Thinking about the effect that can be achieved, how can he not be moved?
It was like a piece of sweet cake was placed in front of him, its sweet aroma made him unable to take his eyes off for a long time, his intuition told him that if he missed this opportunity, he would definitely regret it in the future.

Just then the phone dinged.

Director Zeng subconsciously picked it up and took a look, but it was a message from Meng Ran.

He couldn't help but look at Meng Ran, not quite understanding what it meant.

Meng Randao,
"This cost list was sent to me by my friend. Although I really hope that you will invest most of the funds in special effects, so that the chance of this movie becoming a hit is greater, but it is your responsibility. Movies, I won’t make a decision hastily, there are three grades, it depends on which one you want to choose, Director Zeng.”

After Meng Ran finished speaking, she actually stood up,

"There's a high probability that we won't be able to finish talking today, and Zeng asked you to think about it."

Director Zeng really wanted to stop Meng Ran who had left, but after all, he still couldn't make up his mind to spend 500 million on special effects, and only used 500 million to make a movie, which was too compressed.

Meng Ran has confidence in him, but he has no confidence in himself.

Back at Mingyue Hotel, Shi Jiayue was preparing lessons. When she saw Meng Ran coming back, she quickly raised her head and asked nervously,
"Sister Meng, how is your talk with Director Zeng? Does he have any conditions for agreeing to you?"

Meng Ran smiled mysteriously,
"Don't worry, he will agree, but he still needs time to think about it."

"Oh."

Shi Jiayue responded,
"Then let's start class now."

The smile on Meng Ran's face collapsed in an instant, as if she and Shi Jiayue had switched roles at this moment.

She was still Shi Jiayue's boss before, and Shi Jiayue was just a small assistant, but the next moment she became a scumbag who made Shi Jiayue hate iron for steel.

Even her sweet appearance couldn't erase the teacher's oppressive feeling towards the scumbags.

Shi Jiayue chuckled.

Although she didn't get along with Meng Ran for a long time, she could also feel Meng Ran's rejection of learning.

A person who is obviously so good in other aspects, but every time he talks about study, the high spirits and the pointing Jiangshan are gone in an instant.

She felt very strange and couldn't help asking,

"Sister Meng, since you have no talent in this area, why do you still have to study hard? Grades are not everything. You can do other things if you don't get good grades. Your career is doing very well."

In addition to tutoring Meng Ran's homework these days, she also followed Meng Ran's accounts on various platforms.

Except for [Paparazzi Zhao in the entertainment circle] who can't see anyone, it can be said that he has watched all the videos shot by Meng Ran.

She thinks that Meng Ran is very good, whether she is an actor, a makeup artist, or a prop artist, the jewelry she makes are so beautiful.

You can support yourself with this alone, so why study hard?

Learning, of course, is important when they are a student.

But Sister Meng has stepped out of society.

Meng Ran put his hands on her shoulders, with a heavy voice,

"Because I'm still a student."

Shi Jiayue was very surprised.

But the two faced each other, and she saw the unshakable determination in Meng Ran's eyes, and she immediately believed in this reason that sounded like a perfunctory one.

I couldn't help feeling a little sympathy in my heart: Sister Meng is only 17 years old this year. According to her, she should be in the third year of high school, but in order to pay off her debts, she had to drop out of school and venture into the entertainment industry.

Unlike her, she was a carefree student at Sister Meng's age.

The only thing to worry about is the upcoming college entrance examination.

After that, I spent a very relaxed and happy four years in college.

She clenched her fists and said firmly,

"Sister Meng, don't worry, I will definitely teach you well. I will try to teach you all the courses in junior high school this year, and teach you high school next year. Then I will find a way to help you get a name in high school. By then, you will be able to compete with other students of the same age. Going to take the college entrance examination."

Meng Ran thought to herself: Thank you so much.

If Shi Jiayue can really teach herself in two years, then Meng Ran is willing to pay her one million tuition fees, and only hopes that she can always maintain such a firm belief.

Meng Ran choked up and said,

"Okay, let's work together."

At this time, Shi Jiayue didn't know what kind of scumbag student she was about to face.

You must know that she has been very successful in tutoring Meng Ran's homework these days, it is entirely because Meng Ran has learned these homework not long ago, and the month of recuperating in bed has not been idle.

Next, while they were waiting for director Zeng's reply, they made up lessons. At the same time, Meng Ran also took Shi Jiayue to teach her all kinds of acting. Now that they got the script, Meng Ran could definitely pull her to act in the opposite role.

It doesn't matter if her acting skills are young, this is a personality that is almost customized according to her own.

Meng Ran taught her how to act in her true colors in front of the camera.

She is highly accomplished.

He spends a lot of time on acting, but doesn't spend much time studying. Shi Jiayue hasn't discovered the fact that Meng Ran is a tragic scumbag.

From contacting Director Zeng to making a decision, it only took half a month.

On this day, Meng Ran and Shi Jiayue packed their bags, and they were about to rush to the set to officially start filming.

Almost all the shots of this movie were completed in the villa, and Director Zeng had already found a suitable villa in advance and rented it out.

This villa is not in the imperial capital, it is still a little far away, and it will take half a day for them to fly there.

It is worth mentioning that Director Zeng helped buy the plane tickets.

Sitting on the plane, Meng Ran felt a little excited.

She hasn't been on a plane yet.

Whether it was the previous life or this life, the most expensive means of transportation she has ever taken is probably the high-speed rail.

At this time, Shi Jiayue's identity had perfectly changed to that of a small assistant. She should have been on a plane before, and she took Meng Ran through all the formalities and found a seat with her familiarity.

The two of them are neighbors.

On the plane, Meng Ran also met director Zeng, the leading actor and a group of cannon fodder characters.

That's right, the key scenes of this movie are divided into female one, female second and male first, and there is no male second.

There is no male third either.

They are all cannon fodder, at best they are cannon fodder with more roles, and those with less roles, they will all be wiped out in the villa.

The male lead was quite unexpected to Meng Ran, he turned out to be Xu Lejin.

This is their second match.

It's just that in "Clear Water Falling into the Sky", the other party played the first male role, and she played the third female role. Unlike this time, they directly became the male and female protagonists.

Meng Ran noticed that there was no surprise on Xu Lejin's face, but triumphantly, she blinked at her.

Obviously, the other party knew about it. Is this a surprise for myself?
