Chen Shi's idea is very simple, that is, Fu Yinhong helps him set up an investment company, so that he can instruct Fu Yinhong to invest in those Internet companies that he is optimistic about, of course, there are not famous at this time, but will shine in the future of the industrial company, these are an investment in the future, he found that his energy is limited, can not take care of so many things, therefore, he has to let go, had to use money to earn money, take the road of financial operation.

This is a simple and affordable method, because he can see the future, and he also has a certain understanding of those companies in the future, at the very least, the money he invested will not be wasted, he will not lose everything, and he will definitely earn back dozens of times the rate of return.

With enough money, he can concentrate on what he wants to do, for example, He Chunming's mobile phone project, which is a money-burning industry, with Lao Mei's technology, it still takes about 10 years to get it done, how much time does He Chunming need?

Also, Li Yalian wants to make a movie, there is no special effects company, therefore, with money, he can buy a special effects company to operate, to make movies for Li Yalian, of course, also want to improve the quality of Chinese films, the domestic film market is about to be hot, there will be a lot of blockbusters in the future, most of the special effects of these blockbusters are made by foreigners, he thinks that if there is a Chinese people's own special effects company, fully capable of producing blockbuster special effects, then it will definitely make the Chinese people proud.

Also, Chen Shi Beverage Factory also wants to expand, now subject to financial problems, Coke has not been developed, sweet wine has not been launched, therefore, many projects in his heart have not been completed, if the investment company is inserted, then the operation will be much more convenient, for example, when acquiring a small company, there will be better results when someone from an investment company comes forward.

talked with Fu Yinhong for nearly two hours, the two talked very devotedly, Chen Shi said his thoughts, and then Fu Yinhong proposed a solution based on his knowledge, in short, the two of them were like fish in water, and they were very speculative.

After all the conditions reached an agreement, Fu Yinhong was about to leave, Chen Shi gave her a bank card, so that she felt that she was going through the formalities and building the company's bones as soon as possible, and now there should be no shortage of people, because Yinlu has just collapsed, and there are many old colleagues who need to find jobs, therefore, Fu Yinhong is full of confidence, after going out, she just got on the taxi and immediately called her old colleagues, she will pull as many people as she wants, in short, not afraid of many people, afraid of not enough people, now she is the only one, it can be said that she is the commander of the light pole.

After Chen Shi handed over this matter to Fu Yinhong, he couldn't help for the time being, and he didn't need him to help, otherwise, what would they do when they were recruited?

A few days later, Li Yalian came back, Chen Shi excitedly went to the station to pick up people, after seeing Li Yalian, Chen Shi said worriedly: "Why is it dark? ”

Li Yalian suddenly threw herself into his arms and muttered, "Mmmm!"

Chen Shi hugged her and got into the car, and then asked her about the crew. Li Yalian suddenly gushed and said: "Now that it has been completed, it is estimated that it will be broadcast in August and September, and you will know how wonderful this drama is by then." ”

Chen Shi smiled: "Maybe it's a bad drama, you're not a director, and you're not a producer, how do you know if it's good or not?"

Li Yalian participated in the production herself, of course she didn't want Chen Shi to say badly, not to mention that she hadn't even seen the film now, how could she evaluate it? She was dissatisfied: "Anyway, it's good, what I participated in is good, you must watch it when the time comes, because for me, this drama has a very important significance." ”

Chen Shi laughed and promised: "Okay, well, I'll watch it then, no matter how bad it is, I'll watch it, but after the TV series has been filmed, do you want to make a movie next?"

Li Yalian nodded and said: "I have written the script, do you think that I will just shoot when I go to filming? I write the script at night, and run with the photographer and director during the day, I am tired to death, otherwise, how can I lose weight like this?"

Chen Shi said distressedly: "I am so tired, pay attention in the future, I will never let you go out alone again, I will follow you when you film in the future, and I will be your follower when you become a director." ”

Li Yalian suddenly shouted happily: "Okay, okay! You will be my follower in the future, so when do you think it is better for me to start filming?"

Li Yalian is not joking, since her script has been written, then she has figured out how to shoot it. Chen Shidao: "Let's buy the copyright first, and then you have to contact the actors first, and finally you have to assemble the team, otherwise, how can you shoot by yourself?"

Li Yalian thought for a while and said: "We still need to find a producer, Xiao Gao can, but I think he must not be happy, because he also wants to be a director, if I shoot first, he will not have the opportunity to be a director, he will definitely be dissatisfied, therefore, I think it is better to wait for Xiao Gao to shoot a film first!"

Chen Shi saw that Li Yalian was thinking about him, and he did not forget the hard work of Chen Shi's management company because of his own affairs, so he was doubly moved and said: "It's okay, don't worry, Xiao Gao can also shoot, let's just find a new producer, Xiao Gao will start filming with you, but I'm afraid what he wants to shoot hasn't been decided yet!"

Although Xiao Gao wants to be a director, he doesn't have a script in his hand now, so if he wants to start filming immediately, of course he has to buy a script, or ask Xiao Gao to write one quickly, but I'm afraid it's too late, a script is not written in a day or two, Li Yalian's book has been written for a year, and she is basically fine, so she soaks in the script every day, of course, it is written. Another point, that is, her book is adapted from the novel.,In this way,The approximate skeleton is there.,It's just just a matter of pruning the branches and leaves.,Adapt some dialogue.。

Half a month later, Li Yalian got the copyright of "The Moon Knife at the End of the World", and then set out to form the crew and began to select actors.

Xiao Gao is also about to start filming, and Chen Shi recommended a good idea to him, that is, to start filming martial arts TV series, so that the two are both filming martial arts and can learn from each other, for example, martial arts design, such as martial arts actors or stand-in action directors, etc.

This can also save costs, and two crews can even start filming in one film and television city, and even the rented space can be used to the maximum. Xiao Gao chose Jin Yong's martial arts, at first he thought it would be better to shoot "The Condor Heroes", and later Chen Shi suggested that he start filming "Dragon Babu", because Tianlong Babu has a very good actor, and Qiao Feng's candidate is Hu Jun. In the previous life, this version of Tianlong Babu was the best Jin Yong martial arts work in the mainland, and Chen Shi also liked to watch this version, so he suggested it.

Xiao Gao happily accepted, in his opinion, it doesn't matter what you shoot, the important thing is to shoot, just let him realize his dream, he doesn't have such a big pursuit of movies, he is actually the most suitable to be a producer, but he didn't realize it himself.

The matter has been decided, so the selection of actors is on the agenda. The crew behind the scenes is probably fully equipped, some of them are people who followed Xiao Gao before, and some are re-recruited, all of whom are well-known behind-the-scenes personnel.

Li Yalian was a director for the first time, and she was a little nervous in her heart, so she had to ask Chen Shi about everything, although Chen Shi didn't know how to shoot, but she could still give Li Yalian a little comfort, besides, he had watched countless movies and knew the future development path of films, so Li Yalian already admired him for the problems of creation.

Before, when Chen Shi and Li Yalian wrote the script, they said a lot of lines intentionally or unintentionally, these lines are classic lines on martial arts movies, but they haven't come out yet, so they were included in her script by Li Yalian intentionally or unintentionally, and she also added Chen Shi's name to the signature of the script.

Because, many things she can't figure out in shooting, often just ask Chen Shi, without a few words, Chen Shi can explain it clearly.

For example, the question of the core idea, at the beginning, Li Yalian was entangled in the question of whether it was a commercial film or a literary film, and later, Chen Shi directly told her that Gu Long's martial arts movies must be made into literary and artistic types, and they must be forced and styled, that is, they must have a unique aesthetic, and they must not learn from Hong Kong and Taiwan martial arts movies, which are Tsui Hark's aesthetics, not Gu Long's aesthetics.

As long as this is done, the timely box office is not ideal, but the reputation will not be bad.

After Li Yalian heard this, she immediately felt very good. In fact, this is Chen Shi's perception after watching "The Grandmaster", although "The Grandmaster" is a modern action movie, it is still a martial arts film in its bones, and it is very Gu Long-style aesthetics, especially the fighting action, for example, when Tony Leung and Zhao Benshan made moves, they imitated the old man of Tianji and Shangguan Jinhong in Gu Long's "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword", which is very similar to what the king of sunglasses learned. In fact. The King of Sunglasses' "East Evil and West Poison" is a Gulong-style movie.

Another point, Chen Shi directly told Li Yalian that Gu Long's novels emphasize the individual, therefore, don't make it into collectivism, don't make it into family hatred and national hatred, Gu Long emphasizes the individual survival situation in modern society, the loneliness and sense of existence in the current society, and the struggle of the individual against the collective, which is found in many novels.

When Chen Shi was bored, he also learned from Li Yalian to read Gu Long's novels, and he also saw his own thoughts.

Li Yalian has not yet decided on the leading role, so let Chen Shi help with ideas, Chen Shi asked her, "Haven't you thought about who to play?"

Li Yalian counted with her fingers: "I think of Hong Kong and Taiwan actors, but then I think Hong Kong and Taiwan actors are too expensive, so I just find a local one, and then leave more money for the post-production, what do you think?"

Chen Shi nodded and said: "Smart, your choice can be said to be very smart, but mainland actors don't have much appeal, aren't you worried?"

Li Yalian said with a smile: "Don't worry, I don't have to think about the box office when I make a movie, you can afford it anyway." ”

Saying that, she looked at Chen Shi with a smile, and Chen Shi smiled helplessly: "Yes, I can afford to lose, don't worry, even if I lose my underwear, I will provide you with a photo." ”

Li Yalian's heart was sweet, she held Chen Shi's hand tightly, and said: "I know you will definitely support me, I don't ask too much, after the filming of this movie, if the reputation is not satisfactory and the box office is not ideal, then I will not shoot it in the future." ”

Chen Shidao: "Why don't you shoot, don't worry, I'm not joking, besides, how much can you spend to make a movie? Tens of millions of dollars are considered a big investment, don't you know how much money we have now? There are no less than a dozen enterprises that I have directly arranged, and any one is enough for you to toss." ”

Li Yalian was even more moved, and vowed in her heart that she must make a good movie.

Chen Shi said again: "Mainland actors are young and have acting skills, there are so many candidates, one is Xia Yu, one is Liu Huohua, one is Chen Kun, and I don't know much about the others, which one do you want to choose?"

Now the mainland students have not grown up, and these are relatively well-known at this time. Li Yalian asked: "We don't consider market feedback, therefore, actors don't think about fame, as long as they have acting skills." ”

Chen Shi thought about it and gave several examples, such as Duan Yihong, such as Fu Dalong, such as Wu Xiubo, and so on.

After Li Yalian heard this, her head was big, many of these people she was not familiar with, so she couldn't make a decision, Chen Shi said: " Let them all audition, and then you choose one by one, and, you also have to choose the supporting roles, it is impossible to choose just by listening to a name, you have to see if the style is suitable, first look at the camera, first see how the lines of others are, and the genre of performance should also be considered, some people pursue innovation in performance, if you don't like it, don't understand this kind of performance, then of course it will not be suitable, therefore, audition is very necessary. ”

Li Yalian said: "With so many people coming to audition, will it be a waste of people's time? If a famous person comes, and I don't choose others, will I offend people?"

Li Yalian is still a girl, only in her early twenties, she has not yet had a vigorous and resolute style, she is not enough to manage a team, she has no prestige, so she has no self-confidence, and she is afraid of hurting others.

Chen Shidao: "Don't be afraid, choose what you think in your heart, choose whoever you think is better, don't worry about others being hurt, you send out an invitation to audition is to give people face, whether you can be selected depends on his ability, with me, you can create with peace of mind, don't worry about other things." ”

Li Yalian looked at Chen Shi with wide eyes, her face full of admiration, and said: "Why don't you become a producer and a famous director! ”

Chen Shi nodded and said, "Okay, who made you my daughter-in-law? If I don't help you, who will I help?"

So, Chen Shi became a director and a producer, of course, Li Yalian is still a director, she focuses on creation, Chen Shi is responsible for solving all the problems on the crew, as for how to shoot, then you have to listen to Li Yalian, she has learned shooting skills, although she is not so skilled, but, at least, the photographer can't fool her.
