"Lu Chen, are you kidding me? Do you really plan to suppress this film first?" Cheng Ming asked confirmingly.

So much money has been invested in this movie. If the cost is not recovered, wouldn't it mean that more than one month and nearly two months of hard work have been wasted.

Lu Chen smiled and replied: "Let's hold on for a while. Anyway, we are not short of money for the time being."

Now he is under the pressure of two big companies. At this time, when a movie is released, no matter how well it is promoted, the box office will not be very high. There is a huge risk of losing money. There is no need for him to bang his head against it.

And their company doesn’t just make movies, they have a lot of ideas

"Then what are you going to do next?" Cheng Ming asked.

Lu Chen typed a few times on his computer keyboard and then replied: "Sing."

"Singing?"

Shi Yin and Cheng Ming were both stunned. They hadn't released the movie even after filming, and they were running to sing songs. It felt like they were running around here and there.

Seeing that the two of them seemed a little confused, Lu Chen continued: "Now I can only produce songs. The company has no money. My next plan will require a lot of money."

"Plan? What plan?" Shiyin asked doubtfully.

"I won't tell you for now, but you will know when the time comes." Lu Chen said with a smile.

The plan in Lu Chen's mind was quite crucial, so it was best not to tell it in advance. If it were leaked out and Shi Mei and Lu Ying knew about it, they might be blocked again.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Lu Chenxin doesn't know Cheng Ming and Shiyin, it's just that everyone leaks things sometimes, and the fewer people know about it, the better.

At this moment, Chen Chuan walked in.

Seeing that Cheng Ming and Shi Yin were both there, Chen Chuan asked doubtfully: "Are you...in a meeting?"

"Am I interrupting?"

Lu Chen immediately replied: "No, the meeting has already ended."

"Director Chen, what's wrong with you?" Lu Chen asked.

"I would like to ask you when do you plan to release this movie? If you promote it at this time, it will be just in time for the summer release."

Chen Chuan is relatively optimistic about this film, so he is also more concerned about the release time of the film. If the things he is optimistic about can be recognized by the audience, it will also bring him different happiness.

Summer vacation is about to begin, and it would be best if it could be released on a summer schedule. After all, students are on vacation, and the audience for the movie has increased.

Hearing Chen Chuan's question, Cheng Ming glanced at Lu Chen, and then replied: "Lu Chen plans to press the film and not release it for the time being."

Hearing Cheng Ming's answer, Chen Chuan's brain paused, and then asked: "Why is this?"

Cheng Ming then replied: "Because Road Movie Group has also severed cooperation with our company and cannot be screened in Shimei and Road Movie theaters, the box office of this movie may not even recover the cost."

Chen Chuan held his chin with his hand and looked thoughtful. He thought for a moment and then said: "How about we cooperate with Shengying and Dream Kingdom? These two companies also own cinemas in first-tier cities. If

If they can increase the film schedule, they can still sell well at the box office."

"Dreamland also has movie theaters?" Lu Chen asked.

Chen Chuan replied: "Dreamland was one of the first companies in China to expand its cinema lines. However, due to difficulties in cash flow in recent years, they sold many of their cinemas to Roadshow."

"But it seems that your relationship with the chairman of Dreamland is not very good, so cooperation may not be easy to discuss."

"You can contact Shengying Media. They have been relatively optimistic about this movie before. If you propose cooperation at this time, I believe they will agree." Chen Chuan suggested.

Lu Chen tapped his fingers on the desk, looked down at the desk, and thought about whether Chen Chuan's proposal was feasible.

He personally does not like Liu Weiming of Shengying very much, and Cheng Ming of his company has conflicts with Wang Hai of Dream Kingdom. If it is just from a personal relationship, there are indeed psychological obstacles for them to talk about cooperation.

But they are now a company, and cooperation is also between companies. Liu Weiming is just a shareholder of Shengying. If he doesn’t like him, he will not cooperate with the entire Shengying. This will appear that he

It's really too petty.

In the future, he will make many people unhappy. If they don't cooperate with others just because they are unhappy, then there is no need to open the company.

To be honest, Lu Chen was not very willing to release the movie that was finally made. After all, he was the leading actor in the movie and had been busy for more than a month.

At this time, Chen Chuan continued: "Well, I can go talk to the big boss of Shengying."

Hearing this, Lu Chen came back to his senses and said, "Then I'll trouble Director Chen."

"It's okay. After all, I'm the director of this movie. If it doesn't do well at the box office, I won't feel very good about it."

"Okay, I'm leaving now. If there is any progress, I will call you then."

Having said this, Chen Chuan turned around and left Lu Chen's office.

Lu Chen glanced at Cheng Ming, and then said, "I'm going to Dream Kingdom to talk to their chairman to see if we can get their theater chain to increase the number of films."

There was no change on Cheng Ming's face. He just said: "I scolded Wang Hai in the hotel last time. He may always remember this. I'm afraid this cooperation will not be negotiated because of me."

Shi Yin then interjected: "If you scold me, scold him. If he wants to cooperate, he will cooperate. If he doesn't, forget it."

Lu Chen said: "Shi Yin is right, you don't need to take it to heart. If Shengying and Dream Kingdom can't come to an agreement, then just put this movie aside first."

"Okay, that's it. It's almost noon, it's time to have lunch."

…

In the afternoon, Lu Chen drove to the dreamland himself.

He made his first money in Dreamland after running away from home, so there is actually no deep hatred between him and Dreamland. Whether the cooperation can be negotiated depends on whether Wang Hai is extremely stingy.

people.

When Lu Chen appeared at the front desk of Dream Kingdom, he happened to bump into Qin Yi, Cheng Ming's ex-girlfriend.

After seeing Lu Chen, Qin Yi subconsciously avoided her eyes and looked to the other side.

Lu Chen ignored her and said to the girl at the front desk: "I am the boss of Chenyin Company. I am looking for Director Wang. Please ask him if he has time."

The girl at the front desk asked: "Do you have an appointment?"

Lu Chen replied: "No."

The girl at the front desk immediately stood up and shouted: "Secretary Qin, someone is looking for Director Wang here. Is Director Wang in the office?"

Qin Yi turned around when she heard the girl at the front desk calling her.

Seeing the front desk girl calling Qin Yi secretary, Lu Chen smiled. It turned out that Wang Hai had promoted Qin Yi to the position of secretary. In the past, Qin Yi was just a front desk girl, but now she has become the chairman's secretary.

, this status difference is more than a little bit different.
