Entertainment: God-level director

After it was confirmed that Xiao Chengchen would play the role of Murphy’s boyhood, the mother and daughter of the Cheng family stayed for a few more minutes before saying goodbye and leaving.

“Brother Ran, thank you for giving the role to Chenchen.”

Not long after, Lin Ran received another thank you WeChat message from Cheng Xiao.

“You’re welcome. If you really want to thank me, please find an opportunity to treat me to a meal in the future. Lin

Ran replied with a smile.

“Mmm Good.”Cheng Xiao quickly agreed.

While chatting with Cheng Xiao, Lin Ran’s cell phone suddenly rang.

After taking a look at the caller ID, he had a bad feeling.

“Hello, Mr. Ren.”The caller was none other than Ren Zhonglun, the CEO of Shanghai Film Studio.

“Director Lin, have you rested? Didn’t I disturb you?”

Ren Zhonglun asked politely.

“There is no rest and it is still early. I wonder if there is something wrong with Mr. Ren calling me?”

“Haha, something really happened. Director Lin will be celebrating the 70th anniversary of the National Day next year. We at Shanghai Film Academy are planning to make a tribute film, and we would like to invite you to be the director.”

Ren Zhonglun invited with a smile.

As expected… this is a big pot.���Ran quickly made excuses to refuse

“Mr. Ren, I’m too young. I’m afraid it’s a bit difficult to master making a gift video.”

“Director Lin, the tribute film we shot this time is not the red theme in the past, the theme is mountaineering.

It mainly tells the story of my country’s two climbs of Mount Everest in the 1960s. There will be many big scenes in it, which is exactly what Director Lin is good at.”

Ren Zhonglun immediately told the general content of the story.

“The subject matter is quite good. It has the main theme and the audience likes it.

However, I am currently busy with the new film and I really don’t have time in my schedule.”

Lin Ran continued to refuse.

To be honest, the subject matter of”The Climber” is indeed very good. If you dare to film it according to the real deeds in history, it will be worth 5 billion!

Even if the most touching part is erased, it will be based on commercial It was made according to the requirements of a blockbuster, and when it was finished, it was a hit of 3 billion+.

Unfortunately, in the previous life, I neither dared to make it completely according to the real history, nor did I make it according to the logic of commercial blockbusters.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t be so crazy. There are several emotional scenes shot in a big way, and they are interspersed with the highest moments, which made the audience want to punch people.

No wonder some netizens complained that the movie should not be called”The Climber”, but”The Climber”. Everest love》

“Director Lin, your new film is a science fiction blockbuster. The preliminary preparations alone will take a long time, but I can set up a crew right away.

I have also revised several drafts of the script. As long as you are in place, you can start shooting soon.

As for the male and female protagonists, I plan to cast Wu Jing and Zhang Ziyi. I heard rumors in the industry that they will also star in your new film. What a coincidence.

After I finish filming this tribute film, I can just go on to film your science fiction film, so that neither side is delayed.”

Ren Zhonglun said with a smile.

Lin Ran secretly rolled his eyes. Ren Zhonglun’s thoughts were quite beautiful. He wanted to take the blame for himself.

Speaking of which, the biggest problem with”The Climber” in the previous life was the script.

《The announced screenwriter of”The Climber” is Alai. In fact, the script written by Alai was almost completely overturned.

In the version of the script written by Alai, the plot mainly focused on the mountain climbing plot, and the emotional scenes were just embellishments.

But Ren Zhonglun wanted Zhang Ziyi to play the heroine to attract the audience.

Zhang Ziyi has always been picky about scripts, so she naturally despised the original script which had few scenes and no room for development.

Therefore, in order to get Zhang Ziyi to agree to play the heroine, Ren Zhonglun overturned Alai’s version of the script and increased the heroine’s role.

But the heroine is not a mountaineer, so she cannot always appear in the mountaineering storyline, so we can only increase the emotional drama between the hero and heroine in the movie.

In the end, a script about the love affair on Mount Everest was created.

Essentially, it is still a matter of Ren Zhonglun’s own ability. His vision is still a few years ago.

I thought that as long as there were enough big-name stars joining the movie, I could get high box office, but little did I know that now the audience pays more attention to the quality of the movie.

As long as the plot content is good, even a newcomer can be a box office hit!

If instead of wanting Zhang Ziyi to play the role, we could find a capable actress who is not so famous, such as Tan Zhuo, Li Di, Wan Qian, etc. to play the heroine, and put the main plot on mountain climbing,”Climbing””The Box Office” will definitely be much better.

Next, Ren Zhonglun continued to persuade Lin Ran, but Lin Ran found various reasons to refuse.

Anyway, he is not willing to take the blame, otherwise it will become a stain on him

“Let’s continue to let Li Renggang take the blame. Director Xiangjiang is not good at filming this kind of subject anyway!”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Ran thought to himself.

Who would have known.

The next afternoon, when Lin Ran was talking to Wang Ziwen at the company, Ren Zhonglun called again.

And this time, it was first and later. He and his previous life wanted to invite Just like Zhang Ziyi joined, she also flew to the capital in person and wanted to have an interview with Lin Ran.

Ren Zhonglun is the CEO of Shanghai Film Studio. Unlike other CEOs of private companies, he can refuse directly. Lin Ran had to give this face, so he had to let Ren Zhonglun come to the company to talk.

“What’s wrong?”

Seeing Lin Ran’s depressed look after answering the phone, Wang Ziwen was full of doubts.

Lin Ran explained the matter roughly.

“It is indeed difficult to make a gift film. Even if you are a great director, you cannot just make whatever you want.”

Wang Ziwen nodded after hearing this.

“The problem lies here.”Lin Ran looked helpless.

Not long after, there was a knock on the office door, and the front desk staff came with Ren Zhonglun.

“Director Lin, long time no see, Mr. Wang.”

After the meeting, Ren Zhonglun shook hands with Lin Ran and Wang Ziwen with a smile.

After greetings, Ren Zhonglun looked at Lin Ran sincerely and said:

“Director Lin, I really want to ask you to be the director. There is no one in China who is more suitable to direct this project than you.”

“Mr. Ren has won the award. There are many good directors in China, such as Xu Zheng, Ning Hao, and I think Wu Jing can also do it.”

Lin Ran waved his hand quickly.

It’s not that Lin Ran is humble, but the more Ren Zhonglun values him, the harder it will be to reject him.

“Xu Zheng and Ning Hao are indeed good, but their styles are not suitable. Wu Jing has to play the leading role and has a tight schedule, so it is best not to be distracted. Ren

Zhonglun looked at Lin Ran straightly:”So, the most suitable person is you, Director Lin!””

“……”Lin Ran.
