China Entertainment: I am a big boss in the industry

Chapter 860 New Challenges and Breakthroughs

"Director Lin, Chen Yifan has confirmed that he has free time."

“He was also very interested in the role.”

Hearing this, Lin Gao nodded slightly.

He had already been impressed by Chen Yifan's acting ability.

But this time, he had to confirm not only Chen Yifan's schedule and interests, but more importantly, whether the actor could truly interpret the role he envisioned.

"Let's arrange a meeting."

Lin Gao said.

"I want to talk to him in person and see how he understands and feels."

Wei Lianlian nodded quickly and began to arrange the time.

While waiting for the meeting, Lin Gao was not idle.

He continued to detail the backstories of the new characters.

"The growth of this character must be in sharp contrast to that of Zhizunbao."

"Their choices are different, and their destinies are different."

"But it is precisely because of this that the fates of the two are intertwined."

He picked up a pen and wrote down several new plot clues in the blank spaces of the script.

These clues not only make the story more compact, but also lay a reasonable background for the appearance of new characters.

A few hours later, Chen Yifan arrived at Lin Gao's office as scheduled.

He was dressed in casual clothes and looked calm, as if he had made sufficient preparations for this meeting.

"Director Lin, I have heard of your name for a long time. Today I finally have the opportunity to communicate with you face to face. It is such an honor."

Chen Yifan said politely with a faint smile on his face.

Lin Gao nodded and motioned for him to sit down.

After the two exchanged a few pleasantries, Lin Gao got straight to the point.

"You should already know that I want you to play a new role in the sequel to A Chinese Odyssey."

“This character is not just a supporting role, but one of the emotional cores of the entire film.”

Chen Yifan nodded slightly with a serious expression.

"Yes, I have read the first draft of the script."

“I was really interested in the complexity of the character.”

"He has both inner struggles and resistance to fate. Such a role is very challenging."

Lin Gao nodded with satisfaction.

"Yes, that's exactly what I wanted to say."

"This character not only has to carry emotional complexity, but also, through his existence, allow Zhizunbao to see the fear deep in his heart."

“The interaction between them is both confrontational and mutually illuminating.”

Chen Yifan pondered for a moment, then said: "I understand. To a certain extent, this character is like another side of Zhizunbao."

"His choice contrasts with that of Zhizunbao, but both are trapped in their respective destinies and cannot easily escape."

A gleam of appreciation flashed in Lin Gao's eyes.

Chen Yifan's understanding of the role coincides with his.

"very good."

"Your understanding is very accurate."

“I hope you can express this emotion through a delicate performance.”

"This character doesn't require too much external performance, but through the changes in his heart, let the audience feel his pain and struggle."

Chen Yifan nodded, revealing a determined expression.

"I will try my best to interpret this role."

The two went on to explore details about the character, including his personality transformation, his confrontation with Zhizunbao, and his ultimate fate.

Lin Gao was very satisfied with this exchange.

He knew that Chen Yifan had fully grasped the essence of the role, and all that was left was for the filming to be completed perfectly.

After seeing Chen Yifan off, Lin Gao returned to the table.

He felt particularly relieved. Finally, a suitable actor was found for an important role, which made him more confident in completing the sequel.

Wei Lianlian walked in again with a few new documents in his hands.

"Director Lin, we have to start preparing for some location shooting next."

“There are still some scenes that need to be built in advance.”

"Do you think we should arrange a location scouting team first?"

Lin Gao nodded.

“The location scouting thing is very important.”

“Especially the scenes where new characters appear, they must have enough visual impact.”

"We can choose some places with unique landforms, preferably ones that can give the audience a feeling that they are not part of reality."

Wei Lianlian quickly wrote down Lin Gao's request, and then asked, "We also need to arrange some prop designs related to the characters."

“The props and costumes for this new character need to highlight his special identity.”

Lin Gao thought for a moment and then said, "The prop design for this character must be simple, but have symbolic meaning."

"His weapons, clothing, and even accessories must convey his inner world."

“Especially in the showdown with Zhizunbao, these details will become an important part of the emotional expression.”

Wei nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.

She knew that Lin Gao was strict about every detail, but that was why his films were so successful.

A few days later, the location scouting team sent back photos of several filming locations.

Lin Gao looked at each photo carefully.

One remote desert scene caught his attention.

In the vast expanse of yellow sand, an isolated mountain stands tall in the sky.

In the sunlight, the desert landscape appears mysterious and lonely.

“This place is very nice.”

Lin Gao pointed at the solitary peak and said.

“The appearance of new characters can be placed here.”

“This sense of isolation fits his fate perfectly, symbolizing both his loneliness and his disconnection from the world.”

Wei Lianlian immediately said that he would arrange further on-site exploration.

As the preparations before filming gradually unfolded, Lin Gao's confidence in the film grew stronger.

Every detail was developing in the direction he expected.

At night, Lin Gao stayed alone in the office, continuing to perfect the final details of the script.

He hopes that this sequel will not only continue the glory of the first one, but also bring deeper thinking to the audience.

The story of Zhizunbao has been deeply rooted in people's hearts, but he believes that this new character will bring new impact to the entire movie.

"The growth of Zhizunbao will never stop."

“And this new role will be the key to pushing him to greater heights.”

As Lin Gao thought about it, he quickly wrote down his new inspiration in his notebook.

He knows that the world of movies is infinitely vast, and only by constant exploration can he create unforgettable classics.

As the night deepened, Lin Gao put down his pen.

He knows very well that the real challenge lies in the shooting and post-production stages.

But at this moment, he was full of confidence and expectation.

This film is not only his work, but also an emotional bridge between him and the audience.

“We will do our best.”

Lin Gao said softly, his eyes filled with determination.

Soon after, the filming of the movie officially started, and Lin Gao knew that every next step would be crucial.

Lin Gao remained highly focused during the filming of the movie.

He knew that the sequel not only had to continue the success of the previous work, but also had to make new breakthroughs.
