If you are asked to make a graduation film, you will win the Golden Bear Award?

The Great Palace of the State

The little princess of the country, Vanna Varui, stood in the middle, while Lu Chen and Spielberg stood on both sides.

"Princess, that's it." The royal family's dedicated photographer took a dozen photos in a row.

"Okay, you can go down." Vanna Warui smiled at Lu Chen and said, "My dear, it's okay."

It’s good for a woman to be a great director.

This time, I also met the world-famous director Spielberg.

Originally, the two planned to meet in a hotel, but Vanna Varui arranged to meet at the Grand Palace of the State of China, which also showed that she attached great importance to Director Lu and Director Spielberg, both of whom are international celebrities.

"Director Lu, you are so lucky to have such a little beauty accompanying you in the country." Spielberg also admired Director Lu, and even the little princess of the country won.

Of course, to be precise, Director Lu was captured by the little princess of the country.

I came to the country to make movies, not to pick up girls.

But there is no reason to refuse what is being sent to you, let alone the Royal Family of the Emperor of China behind it. This is coming to your door with your own resources.

I got a lot of conveniences when filming "Manslaughter" and "Detective Chinatown" in the country, including the company's production of "The Journey to Thailand".

When Vanna Varui heard this, she was very happy and sat next to Lu Chen, looking like a little bird.

"Director Lu, "The Wandering Earth" has made your commercial value in the global film industry unmatched by anyone..." Spielberg gave a rainbow fart.

"Director Spielberg." Lu Chen interrupted, otherwise this flattery would become more and more unrealistic. He also said that if he had the status to elect the president of the United States, he would be able to elect the president. "If you have anything to say, just tell me. .”

Lu Chen never likes to beat around the bush, and Spielberg, as an international director, has never been so skilled at flattery.

"Director Lu, I think it's time for a sequel to "Transformers."" Spielberg flew here from the United States specifically to talk about this matter. "Fans of "Transformers" all over the world are waiting for your sequel, Director Lu. This Hasbro once said that if Lu Chen is willing, the movie rights of "Transformers" can be sold to Mars Film and Television for ten years."

Of course there are conditions.

There must be three movies related to "Transformers" in ten years, and they must be directed by director Lu Chen.

With the movie "Transformers", Hasbro has made a lot of money from the toys surrounding the movie. It hopes that Lu Chen will direct "Transformers" to create greater glory.

"Director Spielberg, let's talk about this later." Lu Chen picked up the wine glass and motioned for a drink. As for filming a sequel to the movie, he really had little interest.

Spielberg quickly drank it down and continued: "Director Lu, Hasbro is willing to increase the sales share of "Transformers" peripheral toys to 20.00%, and the "Transformers" movie can also be handed over to Mars Film and Television Global issued."

"Including the special effects of the movie, which can be completed by Mercury Special Effects, as well as the actors in the movie. As long as the main actor does not change, the other actors can be Chinese actors, as long as the number of Chinese actors does not exceed half."

Before coming, Spielberg also did enough homework.

Knowing what Lu Chen wants, including overseas distribution rights, cultivating Mars Film and Television (Overseas) Company and Mercury Special Effects, including using Mars-based artists, they can satisfy it, as long as Director Lu continues to direct.

Spielberg is so interested in it because he is also the DreamWorks live-action film studio and can get involved. He hopes to create another blockbuster film and make the DreamWorks live-action studio as famous as DreamWorks Animation.

After Lu Chen heard this, he touched his chin and thought about it. This condition was indeed very tempting.

"Director Lu, as long as you are willing, you can do it with whatever conditions you want." Spielberg also said that as long as he directs, he will get a 20.00% share of the box office.

There is also a directing fee of US$5000 million.

Of course, this belongs to the left hand and the right hand.

Mars Film and Television is also an investor in "Transformers". The money is invested and comes back immediately. Of course, it must be part of it. Lu Chen's high cost of directing is directly proportional to the high cost of the film.

The reason for making such a good offer is because he knows that both "Iron Man" and "Batman" are waiting for Lu Chen to direct the sequel. Director Lu has directed all the global movies that have become hits, and he will definitely continue to make them and continue to make money.

What's more, director Lu Chen pioneered 3D movies in the world and is now the most valuable golden brand in the global film industry.

"Director Spielberg, let me think about it." Lu Chen hasn't made a decision yet. He has to take another look. As for the other party's conditions, he is quite sincere.

"Director Lu, I'm waiting for your good news." Spielberg said another thing, "Director Lu, as well as the global fans who like "Kung Fu Panda", are also waiting for the sequel. You are in the movie, but The life experience of the protagonist 'A Bao' and 'A Bao's father were not explained."

"Movie fans around the world are strongly asking you to make a sequel. You see, this is an American movie review website. They conducted a survey and found that nearly 200 million people requested a sequel to "Kung Fu Panda"."

He said and took out a document.

"Kung Fu Panda" is the biggest purpose of Spielberg's trip.

I want DreamWorks to continue to cooperate with Mars Film and Television (Animation) and have Director Lu direct it. "Kung Fu Panda" is a big IP. If it continues to be directed by Director Lu, it will definitely make a lot of money.

Spielberg also felt that Director Lu should not make Chinese-language films, but should only make global films.

How much money can Chinese-language movies make?
Of course, except for "The Wandering Earth", this Chinese-language movie is an outlier.

For example, after Director Lu's "The Wandering Earth", "Manslaughter" was released globally, which means that the box office in the Chinese mainland was good, with 6000 million U.S. dollars, while the overseas box office was only 1.33 million U.S. dollars.

The total did not exceed US$[-] million.

If he were to make a global film, with Director Lu's ability, the profit would start at US$[-] million. Therefore, when Director Lu shoots a Chinese-language film, the effort and reward are completely out of proportion.

What's more, sequels to "Transformers", "Kung Fu Panda", "Iron Man", and "Batman: The Dark Knight" are all waiting for Director Lu.

The film company behind them is definitely not willing to change directors. The success of these films is inseparable from Director Lu, who takes at least half of the credit.

As for Lu Chen continuing to shoot Chinese-language films, he also wants to develop Chinese-language films and expand the Chinese-language film market. If the Chinese-language film market becomes bigger in the future, the biggest profiteer will be Mars Film and Television.

"Director Spielberg, this "Kung Fu Panda" is your real goal, right?" Lu Chen finally saw it, and it turned out to be waiting for him here.

Spielberg laughed and said, "Director Lu, "Kung Fu Panda" is a movie set in China. I think you prefer to shoot it."

It can be seen that Director Lu has been committed to promoting Chinese-language films to the world.

Otherwise, I would not have spent US$3 million to film "The Wandering Earth" before.

If he had known earlier, Spielberg would have tried his best to invest in "The Wandering Earth". "The Wandering Earth" cost US$3 million and has now made more than US$8 million.

There is also ongoing income, DVD copyright and other income. The final income must be three or four times the cost.

Director Lu's "The Wandering Earth" also made an industry popular. 3D glasses manufacturers said they were unable to take orders.

"You said it, I really want to make it." Lu Chen wants to make a sequel to "Kung Fu Panda" and is also cultivating Mars Film and Television (Animation).

"Director Lu, you can start preparing now. After you finish filming this movie." Spielberg said this and glanced at the little princess of the country next to Lu Chen. "After taking a rest for a while, you can shoot " "Kung Fu Panda" sequel."

Shooting "Kung Fu Panda" again will save a lot of costs.

The models of the protagonists of "Kung Fu Panda" are all ready-made, which will save a lot of time.

Lu Chen chatted with Spielberg some more about the movie, and then sent Spielberg away. He originally planned to return to the Mangu Hotel where the crew was staying.

But looking at the look in the eyes of the little princess of the country, Vanna Varui, I had no choice but to stay in the Grand Palace and reward her.

Vanna Varui agreed to seal the road for the crew. The main road outside the Grand Palace would be closed for the whole morning for the crew of "Detective Chinatown" to film.

This made Lu Chen think, if he was rewarded a few more times, he would have to use the Grand Palace to film for the crew.

Of course, this is definitely impossible. The Grand Palace of the State of Lu has a very high status in the State of Lu. It is already quite good to be able to close the road outside the Grand Palace for filming.

……

"Detective Chinatown" cast

"I'm so excited." Lu Chen tidied up his clothes. Normally, he wouldn't work on the set. Maybe he missed Xinxi cuisine after eating it for a long time.Tong Liyan, who was lying on the ground, rested for a while and stood up with a rosy face. She thought she had no chance to be with Director Lu in the country.

The main reason is that Director Lu belongs to the little princess of the country.

The soldiers and policemen of the Kingdom of Lu outside the crew were all called by the little princess of the Kingdom of Lu, and Tong Liyan did not dare to argue.

Unexpectedly, Tong Liyan was quite satisfied when she secretly had an opportunity on the set.

"Get it together quickly, we have to start filming later." Lu Chen didn't know if anyone outside the crew heard it, but they probably heard it, otherwise there would be no sound from anyone outside. They should have gone outside consciously.

"Hmm~" Tong Liyan tidied herself up, "Director Lu, I really want to appear in front of the camera like this later."

There is a vacuum now.

After waiting for the scene to be filmed, Director Lu asked himself to put on a vacuum top when he came out of the bathroom.

"It's okay, your top is dark and can't be seen." Lu Chen arranged this because Tong Liyan's figure is not like Liu Wei's. Only a vacuum top can show off her good figure when walking.

Tong Liyan was dealt with on the set.

This is also the reason.

I saw Tong Liyan walking over just now, and I was really interested.

"Oh~" Tong Liyan was still a little concerned, but she had no choice but to obey Director Lu's instructions. She also looked at her top, and it was indeed dark, so you couldn't tell.

But you can definitely see it when you walk.

"Let's go, don't keep everyone waiting." Lu Chen asked Tong Liyan to stop adjusting her top. It's not a V-neck, so there's no need to worry about being exposed.

"Hmm~" Tong Liyan stepped forward and followed.

"Director Lu!" The entire crew stood up and shouted when they saw Lu Chen coming out.

Wang Baoqiang and Zhang Ruoyun had put on their makeup early and were waiting.

"Let's shoot." Lu Chen came to sit on the director's chair, picked up the headphones and put them on, holding the walkie-talkie in his left hand.

The crew hurriedly prepared.

"action!"

The camera is turned on.

The camera was not on a tripod at this time, but was fixed on the photographer using a pan/tilt.

What follows is a long shot, shot to the end.

In the previous life, "Detective Chinatown", this shot was definitely not a one-shot shot. Lu Chen felt that this shot would be better if it was a one-shot shot.

'Qin Feng', played by Zhang Ruoyun, opens his eyes and looks at the surrounding environment. This scene in the movie follows 'Qin Feng' when he comes to the country of Lu, and his cousin 'Tang Ren' takes the wind and washes away the dust, and takes 'Qin Feng' with him. 'I went to a bar and ended up with drugs in my wine. I got so drunk that I didn't wake up until the next day.

Zhang Ruoyun got up from the bed and looked at the layout of 'Tang Ren's' room.

The cameraman kept moving back and forth, keeping Zhang Ruoyun in the center of the lens.

Zhang Ruoyun walked for a while, touched his chest, and felt uncomfortable. He immediately opened the door and trotted outside.

The camera quickly retreated, always following Zhang Ruoyun's pace.

Zhang Ruoyun went to the bathroom outside and started vomiting. Through the mirror, he saw his cousin lying on the wall and peeking at something.

At this time, the camera slowly turned around and filmed Wang Baoqiang, allowing Wang Baoqiang to occupy the center of the camera.

At this time, Wang Baoqiang squatted slightly and raised his buttocks, making him look a little enchanting.

At this time, the camera also zoomed in to take a close-up of Wang Baoqiang.

You can see Wang Baoqiang smiling very happily.

"Xiao Zhang, come into the camera." Lu Chen made arrangements with the walkie-talkie.

Zhang Ruoyun walked into the camera and came to Wang Baoqiang. He was particularly curious about what Wang Baoqiang was looking at. Finally, he pushed Wang Baoqiang away and lay on top to watch.

The next second there was the sound of splashing water inside.

Zhang Ruoyun also let out a scream and covered his right eye.

Wang Baoqiang looked around with a nervous look on his face, and he didn't really care what happened to Zhang Ruoyun's eyes.

"Tong Liyan, get ready, three, two, one, come in." Lu Chen controlled the rhythm of the movie.

Tong Liyan was wearing a loose top, with her long legs exposed to the air. She was holding a basin and towel given by the prop team. When she heard Lu Chen count to one, she immediately entered the movie character and walked into the camera.

The camera slowly moved from Wang Baoqiang and Zhang Ruoyun to the door.

Tong Liyan walked into the camera and threw the towel in her face angrily.

At this time, Tong Liyan looked like she had just taken a shower, her hair was wet, and there were still some water drops on her fair skin.

Of course, it was Tong Liyan who actually took a bath. Half an hour ago, she was with Director Lu, and she took a special bath afterward.

"How can you learn this kind of thing if you don't learn well at a young age." Wang Baoqiang said with a thick accent, turning into a righteous person.

Zhang Ruoyun, who was sitting on the ground with red eyes, said anxiously: "I didn't... didn't..."

Just now when the camera was pointed at Tong Liyan.

Zhang Ruoyun quickly came outside. The girls from the makeup team who were already waiting came forward to put makeup on Zhang Ruoyun's right eye. It looked like it had been burned by hot water.

The main thing is to take one shot to the end. When applying makeup, you must race against time. When the camera comes to Zhang Ruoyun, you must put it on so that Zhang Ruoyun can return to his original position.

"You didn't, you're nothing." Wang Baoqiang accused Zhang Ruoyun, "You didn't see enough, did you? Let me tell you, this time they poured hot water, next time it will be sulfuric acid."

"Who are you?" Tong Liyan looked at Zhang Ruoyun.

"I, I, I... am his cousin..." Zhang Ruoyun stuttered very much when he spoke. Of course, it was just like the lines in the movie.

"Cousin." Wang Baoqiang rushed to answer, "He is my cousin. Do you know who this beautiful, noble and kind-hearted person is, and you shamelessly peeked at her? She is my landlady, the number one in Chinatown. Great beauty, Ah Xiang~”

While Wang Baoqiang was talking, he came to Tong Liyan and finally gave a thumbs up, approving of the beauty of 'Axiang' played by Tong Liyan.

"Is this your cousin?" Tong Liyan looked at Wang Baoqiang with a look of disbelief.

Wang Baoqiang immediately smiled, came to Zhang Ruoyun who was sitting on the ground, hugged him enthusiastically, and looked at Tong Liyan in front of him: "He is as handsome as me, right?"

"Just as lustful." Tong Liyan threw the towel in front of the camera with an angry look on her face.

"Okay, click!" Lu Chen put down his headphones, "This one is passed, thank you for your hard work."

Why did it feel like Tong Liyan was talking about herself just now.

Tong Liyan quickly took the coat from the girl in the assistant team and put it on to prevent it from being exposed later. She quickly went to the dressing room to add the extra clothes.

Lu Chen got up and came over to tell Wang Baoqiang and Zhang Ruoyun about the next scene. (End of chapter)
