Entertainment: God-level director

The movie Lin Ran thought of was”Charlotte”.

This movie is a play launched by Happy Mahua in her previous life. Due to the good response, it was finally adapted into a movie.

Many plots in the movie are typical of rebirth novels in online novels, and readers who like online novels will be disgusted by them.

However, since it was the first time it was shown on the big screen, the audience still enjoyed watching it.

As a result,”Charlotte Troubles” became the biggest box office dark horse that year, and in one fell swoop, Happy Twist became a brand in the film industry.

This movie also made Shen Teng famous and became a leader among domestic comedians.

“This is it. It’s only mid-April now, so it can be released in time for the Spring Festival.”

Lin Ran made up his mind

《”Charlotte Troubles” doesn’t have any big scenes, eight or nine months is enough.

You know, in the previous life,”Mermaid 2″ was unable to be released during the Spring Festival because it failed to complete post-production on time.

But Mr. Xing also carried a large amount of profits required by the gambling agreement to be completed.

If it cannot be completed, then Master Xing will have to pay a large sum of money.

With Master Xing’s stingy character, how could he be willing to accept compensation just in front of his eyes?

Therefore, with less than five months until the Spring Festival, the sequel of”The King of Comedy” was launched and will be released on time during the Spring Festival.

Lin Ran came to the company and went directly to the general manager’s office.

At this moment, Wang Ziwen was processing documents. When she saw Lin Ran coming, she put down her pen, raised her head and asked:

“You are such a busy person, why are you reluctant to come to the company today?”

“Ziwen, I’m going to start another project.”

Lin Ran sat across from her desk and said straight to the point.

“Start another project? Wang Ziwen was stunned for a moment,”

Are you busy?””

“”The Wandering Earth” is currently in the early stages of preparation, so it won’t be a problem if Liu is there to keep an eye on it, and I will go and see it in person from time to time.

Lin Ran nodded and said,”It will take several months to complete the preliminary preparations.”

It won’t be released until next year’s summer vacation at the earliest, or even during the next Spring Festival.

If no movie is released for such a long time, the company will also have financial problems.”

“Then you can guarantee that the movie will make money?”Wang Ziwen doubted

“I dare not say 100%, but 99% is still okay.”

“……”

Wang Ziwen was speechless,”Lin Ran, I found that you are a little distracted.”

“Haha, it’s not that I am drifting, but that I have mastered the secret of dragon slaying. Lin

Ran laughed and said mysteriously.

Wang Ziwen’s face was filled with curiosity:”What’s the secret to slaying a dragon?””

“This is the secret to shooting commercial films. As long as you follow the secret, the audience will buy it.”

“You’ve only made one feature film and you already know the secret? Are other directors fools?”

Wang Ziwen rolled her eyes, feeling that Lin Ran was getting better and better at bragging.

“The core of the secret is actually one word: cool!

As long as the audience enjoys watching it, the box office will naturally be huge.

It’s just that this seems simple, but it is very difficult to do it.

Because directors in our country were taught in school that movies are art, not commodities, and they always like to explore the so-called human nature.

Many young directors take this as a guideline, and some directors understand it but can’t let it go.

Therefore, intentionally or unintentionally, private goods are mixed into the movie to act as a life mentor for the audience, and the audience will naturally not buy it. Lin

Ranyan said concisely and comprehensively.

“I see.”

Wang Ziwen nodded thoughtfully.

“So what type of movie are you planning to make and what’s the budget?”

“A small-budget comedy film, the production cost is probably 50 million. Lin

Ran thought for a while and said

《”Charlotte Troubles” is a comedy, there are no big scenes, and the production cost is very low.

In terms of actor expenses, Lin Ran plans to continue using Shen Teng and Ma Li.

Although their age is obviously not suitable for high school students, there is a lack of good comedians in the country, and after thinking about it, there is really no suitable replacement for them.

But now Shen Teng and Ma Li are still drama actors. Even if they have appeared in the Spring Festival Gala, they are not very popular.

Therefore, the salary of the two of them is very low.

50 million budget is enough

“50000000? OK, I support it.”

Wang Ziwen nodded.

Although”The Wandering Earth”, a big money-consuming project, has been launched, the money will not be spent all at once. Ranmeng Pictures can still get the money.

“This is the list of the main actors, you should find them to sign as soon as possible.”

Wang Ziwen took the list of actors handed over by Lin Ran and looked at it.

Charlotte: Shen Teng.

Ma Dongmei: Ma Li.

Yuan Hua: Yin Zheng.

Qiu Ya: Ju Jingyi.

Teacher Wang: Huang Lei……

“no problem.”

After seeing the list, Wang Ziwen agreed with a relaxed expression.

Next, Lin Ran discussed various preparations for the film with Wang Ziwen.

After the discussion, Lin Ran left the company and began to look around to determine the shooting location.

Wang Ziwen contacted actors and other jobs.

In less than a day, Lin Ran launched a new project, and the news of a comedy movie spread throughout the industry.

In an instant, Lin Ran once again became a favorite in the industry.

Numerous film and television projects The company and the actors all wanted a piece of the pie.

That night, Lin Ran received a call from Yu Dong, the boss of Bona, asking if there was a lack of money for the new project.

The disguised meaning was: I want to invest!

The big investment science fiction movie that was launched before Yu Dong did not dare to invest in movies, but he was very active in comedy movies. Thinking of cooperation with Bona in the future and Yu Dong’s background, Lin Ran gave Bona 10% of the investment share. In addition

, Lin Ran gave Bona 10% of the investment share.

, Lin Ran also accepted investment from Alibaba Pictures and Wanda Pictures.

Among them, Alibaba Pictures only gave 5%, while Wanda Pictures gave 10%.

There is no way, who told Wanda to control the largest theater chain in the country?.

As for other film and television companies, Lin Ran called them all back.

The fixed list of main actors cannot be changed.

《The main scene of”Charlotte Troubles” takes place on campus. The preliminary preparation was very easy and it only took more than 20 days to complete.

But before the filming starts, the Capital College Student Film Festival is here

《”Genius Gunslinger” received a total of 4 nominations, and Lin Ran will bring the crew and creators to attend.
