"So, you came to me?"

Han Lan listened to Wang Shenzhi describing the dispute between him and Zhao Chengwen three days ago, picked up a piece of pork belly and ate it in one bite.

"Han Lan, you are the only one who can understand me now. I believe that since you can advocate the filming of an MV like "Silk String Opera", you will definitely understand what I want to do!" Wang Shenzhi said excitedly.

His eyes were already bloodshot, and it could be seen that he really hadn't slept well these days.

Han Lan glanced at him expressionlessly, silently picking up the food for herself, and said ruthlessly: "Do you think I am the only one in the country who is willing to spend money to invest in your non-mainstream movie?"

"Uh hehe..." Wang Shenzhi smiled awkwardly.

A large part of the reason why he came to Han Lan was indeed for film investment.

Zhao Chengwen was very opposed to him making this movie, so it was impossible for him to invest in it. Even investors who were familiar with Zhao Chengwen would not pay him to make this movie. In fact, Zhao Chengwen probably didn’t even need to say hello to them.

, in this puppet show market, it is difficult for any investor to be smart enough to spend one to two hundred million to play with it.

So in the end, after much thought, it seems that only Han Lan, the "prodigal son", has hope.

After all, he dared to spend five million to shoot a blockbuster-level MV!

"Tell me about your specific plan. Even if you want to attract investment, you can't fool people with just one sentence, right?" Han Lan did not refuse directly and chatted casually while eating the food.

Seeing that there was still hope, Wang Shenzhi quickly said: "Han Lan, it's like this. I plan to make "Silk Opera" into a movie. When the time comes, the plot will be expanded and enriched. Taking advantage of the song "Silk Opera"

Now that it is popular, it can attract the attention of many movie fans. Then we cooperated with the Licheng Puppet Theater. All the characters in the movie are played by puppets. We built the scenes with miniature scenes, which can be more exquisite and realistic than the traditional stage. Then we dub.

I plan to invite well-known domestic voice actors to do the dubbing, so the effect will be better. There will also be special effects..."

While eating, Han Lan watched him talk about his plan. The more he talked about it, the more excited he became. In the end, he stood up and gestured to cooperate with the explanation.

I have to say, it’s very thoughtful.

If he really gets started, puppetry will become a novel subject for movies, and a new industry chain will indeed be formed. Those puppetry performers will also join the crew as actors and get paid, even if it is just ordinary actor treatment.

, which is also better than their current situation in the troupe.

If the movie becomes popular, their value will also rise. If they make money, young people will naturally be willing to learn it. Let alone pass it on, it may even flourish again.

But the premise of everything is that this movie must be successful! The market must be able to accept this movie!

The idea of ​​using puppets to make movies is indeed a good one, but the situation is also very awkward, sandwiched between live-action and animated movies. Live-action movies are currently the mainstream, and their status is definitely unshakable, but compared with animated movies...

In fact, there are already "puppet show" CG animations in contemporary film and television works. Unlike traditional two-dimensional animation, it is not drawn frame by frame. All the characters, animals, and scenes in it are created virtually through computers.

Models are equivalent to creating puppets in the virtual world, and then operating them to act like a puppet show. However, the puppets are in reality, while the CG model is in the computer virtual world. But it is precisely because there is no

Entity, it can have a higher ceiling!

This is also a potential competitor for puppet shows that want to be adapted into films.

Moreover, many people have a natural fear of such humanoid objects, which means that even if it is successfully filmed, it will only be an unpopular movie with a very limited audience.

In Han Lan's impression, there was indeed a film and television work made with puppets in the past life, called Pili Puppet Show. But in fact, the audience who likes it is also very limited, at least compared to animated movies, it is pitiful, let alone compared to live-action movies.

.

The risk of investing one to two hundred million in such an unpopular subject is not ordinary!

"Han Lan?" Wang Shenzhi saw Han Lan frowning, and felt very uneasy in his heart.

If Han Lan doesn't support him, then his movie will basically not be made.

At least it's not possible to take pictures at the moment.

Han Lan shook her head slightly: "The chance of this movie hitting the streets is too high..."

"Han Lan..." Wang Shenzhi was about to persuade him again, but Han Lan interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and continued: "I understand that puppet show has its unique advantages, it is nothing more than the poor intangible cultural heritage plaque.

.But it is too difficult to really dig this thing, and the investment costs and benefits are not proportional at all."

Wang Shenzhi lowered his head in disappointment.

"Director Wang, you know that our Tomahawk Entertainment is a private enterprise. It is impossible for us to invest in a movie that loses money. Unless..."

When Wang Shenzhi heard this "unless", he immediately raised his head.

Han Lan showed a hint of embarrassment and hesitated for a moment. Looking at his helpless look, she sighed softly and said, "Our company has a dream-realization plan for internal employees, and we can accept losses."

"..." Wang Shenzhi finally understood what Han Lan wanted to do.

I am interested in your money, but you are interested in my people?

"Director Wang, the number of places in our company's Dream Realization Plan is limited each year. If you join, I can help you with some recommendations, and you have a high chance of getting in. But if you want it, you have to do it as soon as possible. Registration will end next month.

, If you want it again, you will have to wait until next year..." Han Lan felt that her hint was not obvious enough, so she increased her intensity.

Wang Shenzhi was about to cry: "Master Han, can you please stop teasing me? You know, I am now under the banner of the teacher's studio. I was also brought up by the teacher step by step. It is impossible to be ungrateful and change jobs and leave.

of……"

Han Lan thought it was true and nodded: "My relationship with Director Zhao is also good. It is actually very difficult for me to switch jobs. It seems that I am too unreasonable! I, Han Lan, am also famous in the circle for speaking out.

You are loyal, you really can’t do such immoral things!”

"..." Wang Shenzhi.

Han Lan raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, then smiled and said: "Well, I'll ask my dad to help you intercede with Director Zhao. He and Director Zhao are also old friends. Oh, and Dean Su, he

You are familiar with Director Zhao. Let them help you persuade Director Zhao. I believe that Director Zhao did not sign you to make money from you, but really appreciates your talent and wants to cultivate you. Now, since you have your own ideas

, and he can’t support it, so I believe he will let it go. And it’s just a matter of changing companies. It doesn’t mean that you will sever the teacher-student relationship. The relationship between our Tomahawk Entertainment and Director Zhao is so strong. If you come to our company, why don’t you just go with him?
