"Mr. Kimura, when will your "Gates of Hades" be filmed, and what kind of story is it?"

"The Gate of Hades" is a story about the world and Hades, I invited the popular actress Noriko Yamaguchi to participate, and specially invited the famous Korean actor Kim Zhongxing to participate, as for the filming date? Hehe, it will probably be ...... at the end of next month."

"Mr. Kimura, what are your expectations for this work?"

"Hehe, in fact, the goal is not very high, as long as it can reach the global total box office of 50 million!"

"Oh my God, your total investment is more than 500 million yen, 50 million at the box office, this ...... You're laughing. ”

"50 million dollars!"

"Wow!"

“......”

It was late at night.

After saying goodbye to Yang Rong, Shen Lang couldn't sleep after returning to the company, so he simply took his mobile phone and watched it.

Just right......

He swiped an interview video with an acquaintance, Kimura Muraki.

In the video, in the midst of a scream, Mr. Kimura has a confident smile on the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, he does have the capital of self-confidence.

Just won the grand prize at the Venice Film Festival, and the new script got another 500 million yen project investment (equivalent to 32 million yuan), plus some various advertising expenses, this wave of Kimura may be able to stinky to the sky.

"Good, good!"

Shen Lang squinted his eyes after watching the interview video about Kimura Mufu again, and then looked down at the stack of information about R-book horror films and Chinese horror films in his hand......

"The entry point of Chinese horror films is weird, and the cost is spent on things that shouldn't be spent......"

"A lot of things can be omitted......"

"Most Chinese horror films use the heroine's figure as the attraction point, and then in the midst of the panic, the heroine will show something and then ......"

"Basically, all Chinese horror films use all kinds of inexplicable routines, for example, there are some places that should not go, he went without saying a word, and there is no logical reason, such bloody routines, the audience is tired of watching them, and there must be no market ......"

"Also, I said that I was going to finish the last shift, and I hung up before I finished standing...... Well, bloody ......"

"New ideas, the market needs new ideas, and old things will be eliminated after all!"

“......”

After analyzing and analyzing, Shen Lang's eyelids were too thick, and then he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

In his sleep, he remembered that he had a long, long dream......

He seems to have dreamed of an orphanage, but there is not a single child in the orphanage......

..........................................

Early the next morning, Shen Lang got up and walked towards Mr. Zhang Sheng's café.

When Shen Lang walked in, Shen Lang saw Zhang Shengzheng quietly drinking morning tea alone, and the café was empty.

"Coming?" When he saw Shen Lang pushing the door in, Zhang Sheng nodded at Shen Lang.

"Well, here we ......"

"Sit down, what do you want to drink?"

"Just have a little bit. ”

"Okay, I just have a good latte here. ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhang Sheng doesn't seem to like light very much, and has always liked to sit in the shadows in the corner.

After handing Shen Lang a hot latte, he looked at Shen Lang's bag again.

"The script brought?"

"Well, brought it. ”

"I'll look at ......"

"Good!"

"Do you take a bunch of contracts with you every time you go out?"

"Ahem, just in case, if you don't have a contract ready when you want to sign it, how embarrassing it is. ”

"Huh. ”

When Zhang Sheng saw Shen Lang take out the script and shake a stack of contracts a little, he unconsciously shook his head.

Zhang Yijun commented on Shen Lang before, that is, this guy basically doesn't go out empty......

It seems to make a lot of sense.

"Shen Lang, I watched the news, you invited a lot of non-professionals for this movie, and the investment is only about two million?"

"Well, yes, a few fellow villagers in my hometown invested 500,000 yuan, 500,000 advertising sponsorship fees, and I personally invested 1 million ......" Shen Lang nodded.

"Two million investment can't hire good actors......"

"Uncle Zhang, to say a literary word, I think everyone can be a good actor, as long as he has his own script and story......"

"Shen Lang, you are quite confident. After Zhang Sheng looked at Shen Lang, who was extremely serious, he laughed.

"I didn't have confidence before, but "Our Youth" gave me a lot of confidence, of course, I don't think I'm a very good screenwriter, but I now have the cost of trial and error, even if my new movie hits the street, I can't starve to death......"

"What do you think makes a good screenwriter?"

"The person who tells the story well is called a writer or screenwriter, and the person who shoots the story well and completely is called a director......" Facing Zhang Sheng, Shen Lang did not have any pressure at all, but calmly answered Zhang Sheng's words as if he was of the same level.

"You are like an unsheathed sword, with a sharp edge......"

"Uncle Zhang, you can see that I am very sharp, but I have sharpened my sword ...... for many, many years."

"You just graduated from college, how can you talk old-fashioned......" Zhang Sheng couldn't cry or laugh inexplicably after looking at Shen Lang's expression.

"Hehe, Uncle Zhang, if I talk to you like a little hairy boy, will you still put me on the same level as you? If it's not equal, I don't think I can sign your contract......

"Haha. Zhang Sheng laughed, "Shen Lang, how are you going to shoot this movie?"

"I divide the characters into two categories, one is the important role, for example, Uncle Zhang, you play a murderer in the movie......"

"The kind with a knife?"

"No, you don't have any weapons in your hands, and I would rather think of you as a curse of fate than a murderer......"

"Preaching feudal superstition is not good to pass the trial......"

"So, I'll call you a murderer......"

"Since I'm a murderer, what should I do in the movie? Your script seems to describe me in only two sentences, one is a person who doesn't exist, and the other is a person who can kill people with his eyes...... Even, you only use A, B, C, D to mark the people I have killed...... Shen Lang, eyes can kill, how does this kill? It's the same as Medusa?" After opening the script, Zhang Sheng looked at his character profile very strangely, and then became interested.

"Uncle Zhang, unlike Medusa, Medusa is a petrified person, and the character you are in here is really killing people with their eyes...... There wasn't a single line in the whole process......"

"Interesting, go on......"

"Uncle Zhang, I once saw a person who killed people with a spoon, a chilling existence, you can't kill him with a gun, you can't stab him with a knife, what he does every day is to hit you with a spoon, spoon by spoon, whether it's sleeping, going to the toilet, or eating...... But no one else could see this homicidal maniac with a spoon......"

"It's a novelty. When he heard Shen Lang say this, Zhang Sheng's mood was very strong in an instant.

"Actually, I wanted to use a spoon at first, but then I gave up ......"

"Why not? It's a very gimmicky tool. ”

"A banana has been reported by these people, then, I don't have any weapons, I'll just stare at you, you can't report my character's eyes are too poisonous, bring bad children......" Shen Lang spread his hands "Many assumptions are that if gaze can kill, then, this person has already died N times, so I simply take this sentence seriously......"

"Haha, Shen Lang, what should my character do, what do I need to do?" Zhang Sheng laughed.

"You don't need to do anything, Uncle Zhang, you just need to look at people blankly, Uncle Zhang, you are already very fierce, not like a good person...... Ahem...... In short, you don't need to make up a lot of ......."

"So, I deserve to be a villain?" When Zhang Sheng heard this, he suddenly didn't know whether he should cry or laugh, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

"Ahem, ahem, Uncle Zhang, isn't it a pity that you don't use such a good resource? Since I saw you for the first time, I couldn't help but feel sorry for each other, and then I couldn't help but ......"

"Okay, okay, say you're fat and gasping, Shen Lang, remember, there can't be ghosts in this movie, otherwise you won't be able to pass the review, do you understand? Also, don't cut it all over the place and release it abroad if you can't review it in China, this kind ......of behavior has a very bad impact, if it weren't for the fact that you are a cutting-edge director, a little innovative, and the assistant director Chen Shen has some energy, you will be banned for at least a year."

"I understand, in the middle, Uncle Chen also helped to speak, hehe......" Shen Lang laughed.

"A cutting-edge director in China over the years...... It's simply, one generation is not as good as the next, look at what is filmed, stupid donkey Trojan horse...... Look at Hollywood...... Many people blame the relevant departments, saying that the relevant departments have stifled creativity, but they don't want to think about it, can the things they shoot be released? It's not that we don't understand art, but we don't understand the grandstanding art of those swordsmen......" Zhang Sheng didn't say anything, but sighed with embarrassment.

"Uncle Zhang...... You seem to have a story......" Shen Lang was stunned for a moment, and then keenly felt that the reason why Zhang Sheng suddenly called himself over this time seemed to mean something else, it should be thinking of some past, or......

Zhang Sheng left the relevant departments, isn't it......

What does it have to do with it?

Shen Lang then narrowed his eyes.

"Shen Lang, I know you are very powerful, and I won't hide it from you, the reason why I called you over today is because I saw the title of your movie "The Gate of the Underworld"......"

"This name is inconsistent?"

"It's not a violation, but, Kimura Kio's new movie is called "The Gate of Hades", and after contacting Zhao Yu's "Our Youth" and your "Our Youth", I probably understand something......" Zhang Sheng showed a hint of reminiscence.

"Wait, Uncle Zhang, that Kimura Mufu abandoned his Huaxia nationality and entered the R nationality, does it have anything to do with you? Or do you definitely know each other, and there is a story at the same time?" Shen Lang was shocked after Zhang Sheng's inadvertent sigh and expression, "Uncle Zhang, Kimura Mufu, could he have been your student?"

"......" Zhang Sheng stared at Shen Lang with a hint of sharpness in his eyes.

This sharpness made Shen Lang inexplicably suffocated.

At this moment, Zhang Sheng has completely lost his original calm appearance.

After a while, he sighed faintly.

"Zhang Yijun said you are like a monster...... I didn't expect ...... You're a creepy person......"

"Guess right?"

"No, I didn't guess right, but ...... Of course, I'm also looking forward to what kind of movie you can make with two million and then these people...... As long as you are in the rules, I will support you and shoot more interesting things......" Zhang Sheng shook his head, which was regarded as a promise to Shen Lang.

"Hmmm......"

"Shen Lang, is the investment enough?"

"Enough!"

"Hmm...... Don't lose too ugly......" Zhang Sheng took Shen Lang's contract and looked at Shen Lang after signing it.

"Uncle Zhang, our movie hasn't been made yet, why don't you say ......you lose first," Shen Lang shook his head.

"Oh?" Zhang Sheng subconsciously looked at Shen Lang.

"What if I win?" Shen Lang put away the contract and squinted at Zhang Sheng, "Uncle Zhang, who stipulates that if I use these actors who have no acting experience, I won't be able to make a movie? Who stipulates that if I only have an investment of two million, I can't make a movie?" And who stipulates that we will lose?"

“......”

"Even if it's a miracle, it's created by people!"

“......”

"Just give it a try, what if I win?"

“......”

Shen Lang, who stood up, happened to be in the light.

Zhang Sheng looked at Shen Lang silently.

It's normal for young people not to know that the sky is high and the earth is thick......

However, when Shen Lang said something, he actually felt a sense of blood.

What Shen Lang said was very arrogant, but this kind of arrogance was not unpopular, and it was not even too offensive.

"Uncle Zhang, make a bet!"

"Bet on what?"

"Bet I'll win! How about giving me a year's worth of coffee when I win?"

"Okay, what if you lose?"

"If you lose, you won't invite me to eat coffee for a year......"

"Hahaha. ”

Zhang Sheng laughed, and then shook his head helplessly.

This guy ......

He doesn't lose if he wins or loses.

..........................................

It was almost noon after leaving this café.

Shen Lang remembered that he seemed to have one more thing to do......

What's the matter?

That's right!

Uncle Zhou!

Uncle Zhou is now a celebrity in the film industry, and now he needs an agent, and at the same time needs a brokerage company.

I have to find a broker for Uncle Zhou, as for the brokerage company, my own company also has this kind of nature in it, no problem.

So, what exactly is the broker......

At this time, Sister Chen Fang and Chen suddenly popped up in Shen Lang's mind......

Pondering ensued.

Sister Chen is in the Xinghuang brokerage company, the Xinghuang treats Sister Chen very well, and she doesn't even have a decent company now, so she really lacks bargaining chips......

So, what to do?

Anyway, let's go meet Sister Chen first!

Thinking of this, Shen Lang took out his mobile phone.

"Hey, Sister Chen, are you free now? I want to treat you to lunch......

“......”

After making the call, Shen Lang pushed open the door of the café again under Zhang Sheng's unexplained gaze......

"Uncle Zhang...... Do you have a private room? I would like to book a private room......"

"Rubbing rice?" Zhang Sheng asked calmly after seeing Shen Lang's appearance.

Uncle Zhang, am I the kind of person who likes to take advantage of small things? Uncle Zhang, let me tell you, you may have misunderstood me a little, but I am actually a very generous person......

"Go to box 1, there is a menu in the box, what do you want to eat, scan the code early, I'll do it early...... Xiao Liu, you take Shen Lang to the box......"
