"Welcome our Director Lin to return after successfully completing his mission~"
In a private room of a hotel, more than a dozen people stood up to greet Lin Juan, who had just arrived. Today was the second day after Lin Juan came back. After returning yesterday, Li Lan let him have a good rest for a day, and then insisted on holding a small reception banquet for him today.
, and also introduce him to the artists in the company.
In fact, Lin Juan wasn't too keen on this kind of occasion, but Li Lan arranged it, and it wasn't an outside business partner or anything like that. It was good for the company's artists to meet him, so he came.
As soon as he entered the private room, Lin Juan glanced around, and then a flash of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
There is no such figure.
"Come on, everyone, let me introduce to you. This is our company's contracted director, Lin Juan. He is now the only director in our company." Li Lan pulled Lin Juan over with a smile and introduced him.
Generally, directors who are slightly famous will choose to set up their own studio or simply set up a company. Even the lazy ones will find a larger professional economic company to help them handle their business. It is rare that they are tied to one company. After all, except for a few large companies,
Directors, most directors still need resources.
In the past, Chenguang Economic Company also had directors, but they later disbanded. Now it can be considered a period of inactivity, but for Chenguang Corporation, they invest in different directors and projects, and whether they sign directors or not, unless it is that
It doesn't matter if you have such a big director, after all, they are the source of resources.
"Hello, Director Lin." A group of artists, managers, etc. greeted each other one after another. Lin Juan knew two of them.
Liu Yan, Zou Long.
The most famous artist of Chen Guang Economic.
EMMMM, I have to say that Chenguang Economic Company is really miserable. Backed by such a big head office, it doesn’t even have a single A-list star that can handle it.
"Xiao Juan, this is Liu Yan, I think you are familiar with it." Li Lan took Lin Juan's arm affectionately and said, Lin Juan nodded and said with a smile: "Of course."
Liu Yan said with a smile but not a smile: "Of course Director Lin knows me. He also said that I am too old to play his heroine. Director Lin, you will have to punish yourself later."
Lin Juan was stunned, and then he remembered that something like this had happened before. He smiled dumbly and nodded. He was really caught.
But it doesn't matter. Just smile like this and the matter will be revealed.
"This is Brother Zou Long, Zou, a veteran. You should have seen his movies since you were a child." Li Lan introduced the next person with a smile.
"Hello, I'm Lin Juan." Lin Juan respectfully stretched out his hands to express his respect for his senior. Although the actor is indeed not very famous, Lin Juan recognized his professional ability and contribution to Chinese films.
For example, the sentence "Chang Wei is calling for blessing".
Zou Long was very kind, not as aggressive as in the movie. He stood up, held Lin Juan's hand and said, "Hello, Director Lin, I will rely on you to take care of me in the future."
"I really have a drama. If Aunt Lan approves it for me in the future, I would like to cast it in Brother Zou." Lin Juan smiled and said with a bit of seriousness.
Zou Long was stunned, and then replied readily: "Okay, just give me the script when the time comes."
In fact, at his point, he can't play the leading role, but there will be no shortage of roles to play, especially villains and the like.
So in fact, he still can't imagine what kind of rewards the movie he is about to star in will bring to him.
"This is Huang Jingyu, the new person our company just signed."
"This is……"
After a long introduction, it took a few minutes to complete the introduction. Li Lan introduced everyone as he introduced his own juniors. This attitude also made everyone present understand what Li Lan meant. No one dared to look down on this young director.
Everyone sat down, but Li Lan was the first to speak with a smile: "You don't know, I have seen some of the shots shot by Xiaojuan, and I am very optimistic about "Journey to the Center of the Earth". You will know when the movie is released.
If it's done well, it will definitely be another highly acclaimed movie."
She didn't dare mention the box office. The current box office market is quite weird and no one can tell for sure. And after all, she hasn't seen the finished film yet.
"By the way, Xiao Juan, when will the later stage be completed?" Li Lan asked Lin Juan gently.
"The special effects can be completed in about January, the soundtrack and dubbing can be done before then, and then the editing can be done before February." Lin Juan said with certainty.
"That's good. After all, we still need to submit it for review and arrange theaters. We will try to release it in March." Li Lan said, and then greeted: "Come, eat food, eat food."
"Yeah." As soon as Lin Juan picked up the chopsticks, he heard Li Lan ask again: "By the way, Xiao Juan, you just said you had a script?"
She was quite curious about this. The revised scripts were so good, but what about his original ones?
To be honest, I'm a bit looking forward to it.
"Well, I plan to give it to the company for evaluation when I have time. I want to take pictures." Lin Juan nodded and said, taking his time.
"What subject matter?"
Li Lan's question made everyone present look at Lin Juan, with different thoughts in their hearts, but they were all utilitarian.
Li Lan asked now because he actually wanted to give priority to actors from the company if they were suitable.
"Military." Lin Juan thought for a while and said. He actually didn't know whether it should be defined as military, or... science fiction?
Upon hearing about this subject, many people present lost most of their enthusiasm. After all, military-themed movies have never been a hit, and they are tiring and easily injured.
However, there are also people who don't care, such as Zou Long and Liu Yan. Zou Long is from an acting background and has never seen anything bad in so many years. As for Liu Yan...
This woman is not only good at hype, she is also really willing to fight when it's time to fight.
"Military..." Li Lan also frowned a little. This subject...
"How much investment is expected?"
Lin Juan thought for a while and said: "One hundred and fifty million, no less."
There was even more silence.
"Forget it, Xiaojuan, please hand over the script to the company first, and I will try my best to help you." Li Lan said with a natural look on her face, but in fact she already knew in her heart that this would not be an easy task.
"Yeah." Lin Juan could see the embarrassment on Li Lan's face at that moment, but he was not in a hurry. The best thing he could do was make a few more movies, make more money, and wait a few years to make his own movies.
Anyway, I definitely have to take pictures.
This is the first step in his big plan! Thinking that after this movie is finished and released, leaving behind Easter eggs, the audience may be shocked when the second part comes out, he can't help but feel happy and impatient.
What is a dream? It is something that makes your blood boil every time you think about it.
That's the meaning of your life.
"Come on, Director Lin, let me toast you. Director Lin is here. From now on, weak women like me in our company will have hope." Liu Yan stood up, holding the wine glass, and said boldly.
How could she really wait for Lin Juan to punish herself with a drink? Then it would be impossible for her to achieve her current status.
After Lin Juan poured wine and had a drink with her, she asked jokingly: "Director Lin, do you think your new movie is too old for me?"
