Six o'clock in the morning.

Cheng Ran refused Li Junshou and Mars's invitation to breakfast very firmly, and ran back to his room with red eyes and a hoarse throat to lock the door.

As for Zhang Qiang and Li Qiuxue, they had already returned to their rooms to rest, but Li Junshou and Mars sat silently on the coffee table in the living room for a long time, and the two looked at each other with a wry smile and sighed slightly.

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

When Cheng Ran woke up again, it was already noon.

After a simple wash, Cheng Ran felt a protest from his stomach.

I had no choice but to go downstairs to find something to eat, but as soon as I was about to go downstairs, I saw a group of middle-aged men and women with an average age of at least forty watching a video.

Without going down, Cheng Ran heard that this was "To Alice" and the ensemble "Phantom Day" played by himself last night.

"Awake?"

Li Qiuxue, who was sitting quietly in the corner, noticed Cheng Ran and stood up and asked.

As soon as Li Qiuxue said this, the entire hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on Cheng Ran.

There are doubts, there are appreciation, there are surprises.........

Cheng Ran walked down under the gaze of a group of strangers and looked at Li Qiuxue embarrassedly.

Li Qiuxue raised her eyebrows and turned her head to look at Li Junshou to the side.

"I don't want to introduce it. ”

Li Junshou coughed softly and said twice.

"Xiao Ran, didn't you discuss the script last night and you said that there was a lack of actors, so I helped you find a few real professors in our school. ”

Li Junshou raised his eyebrows briskly, and introduced to Cheng Ran very proudly.

"According to the requirements of the characters in the play, biologist, history professor (female), anthropologist, archaeologist, psychologist, two supporting characters ......"

Cheng Ran looked at Li Junshou sluggishly, and every time he said that a character in the movie would stand up and shake hands with Cheng Ran kindly.

"You mean, these people are the ones who make the movie?"

Cheng Ran, who had just woken up and was shocked by the huge amount of information, sat on the sofa in confusion at this time, rubbing his face and trying to sober himself up.

"Hmm... At the moment, the protagonist has not been determined. ”

"But... Will they be able to act?"

Cheng Ran looked at Li Junshou with a solemn face and asked, this is his first movie, and Cheng Ran doesn't want such an excellent movie to be smashed in his hands.

"Uh... I mean, just let them play in their true colors. ”

Li Junshou said with some uncertainty, and then asked with a hint of hesitation on his face.

"That Xiao Ran, there is still a protagonist who has not yet been decided, you see, ......"

Cheng Ran scratched his head, he didn't expect things to really develop to this point, at first he just thought that Li Junshou was joking, after all, how could he really find so many genuine professors to act.

But I really didn't expect Li Junshou to take advantage of his sleep to find so many professors.

Cheng Ran, who couldn't figure it out, rubbed his temples and said a little casually.

"That, didn't you want to play last time, if you can't, you can find Zhang Qiang to audition, and if you can, you will be the protagonist. ”

"Okay. ”

Li Junshou grinned at the corner of his mouth, patted Zhang Qiang's room and asked about the audition.

As for those professor-level figures, they naturally dispersed, leaving private space for Cheng Ran and Li Qiuxue.

"You're going to let them shoot?"

"Pretty much, they're the best candidates in every sense of the word. ”

Cheng Ran rubbed his swollen temples and said helplessly.

Li Qiuxue pursed her lips and didn't continue to ask, she knew what Cheng Ran meant.

Even if the production cost of this movie is low, the four million investment he pulled from Li Junshou is not enough for Cheng Ran to make a movie willfully.

"By the way, I remember last night you said that there are computers and printers here, it should be able to be used, I will write the script first, and then let Zhang Qiang communicate one-on-one, with his professionalism should be able to teach about it. ”

Cheng Ran stood up on his knees, and after thinking about it for a long time, Cheng Ran decided to try to shoot it first, even if it didn't work, it would just waste some time, and it wouldn't cause much loss.

If it doesn't work, Cheng Ran is thinking about hiring professional actors.

Li Qiuxue nodded silently, it's okay for her to manage a company, but she can only silently support Cheng Ran behind the scenes for making movies.

.........

Zhang Qiang was making his own film and winning all kinds of dreams about film awards when he was violently knocked on the door.

When I woke up and looked at my empty hands, the last scene in my memory seemed to be that I had won the Golden Bull Award for Best Director, and I woke up when I was about to take over my little golden cow.

Reluctantly put on his clothes and got up, Zhang Qiang opened the door and saw Li Junshou's red and black eyes.

"Brother Jun, you haven't slept yet?"

"Sleep, I really doubt how you young people can sleep!"

Li Junshou verbally criticized Zhang Qiang very unceremoniously, and explained to him the general intention.

"You want to audition for the lead role?"

Zhang Qiang squinted his small eyes and looked at Li Junshou.

"Hey, hey!! don't look down on me so much, I have a lot of acting experience. ”

"Tell me more. ”

Zhang Qiang was extremely polite and asked Li Junshou to sit on a chair in the room, and he posed as if he was listening carefully.

"Ahem, I've been actively participating in various dramas since elementary school............ And since I became the vice president, I have been acting every day, especially when I give speeches at meetings......"

Zhang Qiang was stunned and listened to Li Junshou boasting and said, if this was not an investor, he would have been kicked away, where would he still have the heart to listen to him here.

That's it?

Want to be the protagonist just for this experience?

is too disrespectful to Cheng Ran's hard-working movie, Zhang Qiang doesn't want to be scolded by others for making a movie.

The plot of the movie is good, but this director is too spicy and can't even invite the protagonist.

Zhang Qiang thought a lot last night, Cheng Ran's movie is not a hit, but it will definitely not be bad, if it can be made well, Zhang Qiang can say that Cheng Ran and Zhang Qiang's heels in the entire film industry are firm.

In the same way, if you don't shoot well......

Hehe, if you can't make a movie with such a good plot, who will trust you? Invest money in you? Be your actor?

Is it a panic to burn money, or are those actors who have a lot of time to be idle, and by the way, they want to make two bad movies and lose some fans?

"Ahem, Brother Jun must have no problem with the audition, but there is no equipment now, why don't you give me some time to prepare at the beginning." ”

Zhang Qiang worked hard to haha, ready to delay time, and find an opportunity to talk to Cheng Ran about this casting issue.

"Sorry, I have already asked people to move all the equipment of the school's photography department, and I heard them say that this set of shooting equipment is the most advanced shooting tool in the country. ”

Li Junshou said with a smile that in order to be able to make an actor in the last movie, he has worked hard.

"Ahem, the equipment... Now that the equipment is available, well...... That's still a script, yes to the script, I can't audition without a script. ”

Zhang Qiang's small eyes rolled and hurriedly said.

"Script, Zhang Qiang, how do you know that I was writing a script just now. ”

Cheng Ran yawned and handed Zhang Qiang the script he had just written, and by the way, he thanked himself again for his logical and clear brain and sensitive fingers.

The script that was originally planned to take more than two hours to write was completed in less than twenty minutes by Cheng Ran.

Glancing at the typing speed recorded by the computer, Cheng Ran thought a little sadly, if only he could have this kind of hand speed when he was writing papers... Hey... Maybe you can squat downstairs with the goddess more and take a few more glances at the goddess.

handed the script to Zhang Qiang, Cheng Ran didn't make much teas, left Li Junshou with a cheering gesture, turned around and left the guest room.

Just now Li Qiuxue went out to buy breakfast for Cheng Ran, the calculation time should be about the same, Cheng Ran is going to finish breakfast and continue to make up for sleep, anyway, the script of the movie has been handed over to Zhang Qiang, and Cheng Ran can't help much about the movie, so naturally Zhang Qiang is in charge.

After comfortably enjoying the sumptuous breakfast prepared by Li Qiuxue for herself, Cheng Ran went upstairs to catch up on sleep.

When Cheng Ran woke up for the second time, it was already close to evening, and the sky had gradually darkened when the curtains were opened.

After washing up, Cheng Ran changed a set of clothes, and prepared to test how many years the contract Li Qiuxue signed with her was how old, at least she had to have a little bottom in her heart, otherwise Cheng Ran always felt that there was a big stone in her heart that she hadn't put down.

After determining the general plan, Cheng Ran went downstairs with a leisurely pace.

"Cards!"

"Brother Jun, this can't be done, you are a caveman who has lived for tens of thousands of years, not a twilight old man, you still have endless years, you are just confused about your future........."

As soon as Cheng Ran came downstairs, Zhang Qiang frowned, took the script extremely seriously, and said to Li Junshou with an embarrassed face.

Li Junshou's originally relaxed attitude began to gradually become a little nervous, and it was only half an hour after filming started, and Zhang Qiang had already called the card more than a dozen times.

Li Junshou knew that this was not Zhang Qiang's deliberate manipulation of him, but that he was really bad at acting, and he didn't have the flavor that Xiao Ran said at all.

Li Qiuxue, who was far away, sat quietly in the corner of the living room, looking at Zhang Qiang's eldest brother with a calm face, without the slightest intention of obstructing him.

"What's wrong?"

After experiencing Zhang Qiang's card a few times, Cheng Ran couldn't look at it, walked down to let Li Junshou and the others take a rest, and pulled the fat man to the door and asked in a low voice.

"Alas, Brother Ran, this gentleman brother didn't say it, he really can't play the leading role, he doesn't have that taste. ”

Zhang Fatzi said helplessly, he really attaches great importance to this play, although the requirements are a little higher, but for the sake of Li Junshou's investors, it is not to the point of being strict, but in this way, Li Junshou can't act.

Cheng Ran nodded, just now he watched Li Junshou's acting for a while, it is indeed not good, the gap with the original version he has seen is too big, if it is really acting like this, then this movie can basically be sure of iron.

"Otherwise, if you demonstrate it to Brother Jun, maybe you can have that taste. ”

Cheng Ran took the script and frowned and pondered, although this movie was followed by himself in a daze, but adhering to the principle of being a down-to-earth person and being an honest person, Cheng Ran was not ready to be perfunctory.

Seeing that Cheng Ran had no opinion, Zhang Qiang was ready to go in first to inform Cheng Ran of the temporary replacement of the protagonist and prepare to take over the play.

Cheng Ran carefully recalled the details of the protagonist at that time, and after about five minutes, Cheng Ran's body slowly relaxed, and walked in with a look of confusion and vicissitudes in his eyes, facing a group of people who were obviously still stunned, Cheng Ran naturally walked to the back of the sofa where the historian was sitting, and said with an obvious hesitation.

"Guys, let's imagine what a caveman would have become. ”
