Chapter 35: New Movies

"Brother, the main reason for inviting you out today is to let you see my script. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Chen Xuan sat aside and handed the printed script to Huang Zhengmin, which he wrote for a full month to complete, and he believed that this script would impress Huang Zhengmin.
Huang Zhengmin took the script, glanced at Chen Xuan deeply, and then lowered his head to read the script, but he didn't expect that Chen Xuan, who had only one side, called himself out today for this.
At first, I was a little unimpressed, but based on the actor's self-cultivation, I still read the script seriously. The more I read, the more shocked I became, what the hell is this Chen Xuan, who can write this kind of script at such a young age?
"Xiao Xuan, your script doesn't look like something you can make, for example, when you were in the civil war, when you were standing in Yue, you didn't experience it, how could you have such a deep feeling?"
Huang Zhengmin was very curious, how could such an in-depth script be written by a young man in his twenties?
"Inspiration, brother, last month, my head was like an explosion, those inspirations suddenly surged, and they couldn't stop it, hehe, isn't there this script?"
Chen Xuan fished out his beard, he also felt quite magical, his head was actually like an evil spirit, and these magical inspirations came out.
Huang Zhengmin didn't dare to agree to Chen Xuan easily, after all, the filming of this script was too difficult, and it was not something that Chen Xuan could cope with alone, if Chen Xuan failed to shoot the original charm of the script, it would ruin a good book.
"Brother, don't worry, there is no upper limit to the investment in this movie, I know that my own directing skills are not perfect, but I will still do my best to shoot it."
Chen Xuan understands what Huang Zhengmin thinks in his heart, this movie is not like a horror live broadcast, the horror live broadcast can be completed in a studio, but this new movie, Huo, the scene is big, and from time to time there are thousands of people and tens of thousands of scenes, and Chen Xuan's level is indeed a little reluctant.
"That's okay, I think this book has at least the level of winning awards, maybe the box office won't be less than five million, so be it, I'll take this script and study it first, and you're going to notify me when you start shooting."
Huang Zhengmin nodded, Chen Xuan's personality He still heard that Ha Zhengyu mentioned it, he shouldn't be a liar, since everyone said so, it's not easy to refuse.
After solving the matter of the new movie, Chen Xuan still has to be busy with the previous movie, and the editing work is carried out in a rented studio on Zhongwu Road, because Chen Xuan does not have a professional company and equipment here, so many things have to rely on others now, and Chen Xuan's instructions to ACUBE do not know when they can be completed.
"Jin Yuan, you cut it first, I'll go out and make a call."
Chen Xuan suddenly received a call from the United States, a little curious, it was more than ten o'clock in the morning in South Korea, and it was late at night in the United States, and I didn't know who called him.
"Dear Chen, I don't know if calling you suddenly scared you."
Hearing this tone, Chen Xuan knew who was on the other side.
"Nolan, what's the matter if you don't sleep so late?"
Chen Xuan had been studying with Nolan for more than half a year, and it can be said that he was both a teacher and a friend.
"Chen, I have a script here, and I still lack some investment, but I immediately thought of you, I don't know if you have any ideas?"
Chen Xuan tapped his fingers, Nolan's talent cannot be underestimated, although his movies have always been looked down upon by academics, the audience still likes them, and the box office must be guaranteed.
"Of course, Nolan is good friends, you say, how much money is needed, I can call you tomorrow"
"Oh, great, my Chen, there is an investor here who has withdrawn, and it will probably take 1.5 billion."
When Chen Xuan heard this, he almost smashed the phone. What the hell are you doing with this movie, part of the funds is actually 1.5 billion?
"Nolan, don't you tell me that your total investment in this movie is 150 million, right?"
"Oh, Chen, why do you think that, I also invested all my money in it, believe me, this movie will definitely make money."
Chen Xuan smiled, he himself was desperate, I believe that it is still guaranteed.
"OK, Nolan, you send someone to New York tomorrow, and I'll let you receive you there."
Chen Xuan then called Uncle Chen, who was far away in the United States, and asked him how much liquidity there was in the United States, and as a result, there were more than a billion yuan in the bank to eat interest, Chen Xuan smiled, and finally could make a big move.
"Uncle Chen, tomorrow a director from Hollywood will come to look for investment, you give him an investment of 150 million, as for the achievements, you need Uncle Chen to talk to him in person, and Uncle Chen, when you are free, help me buy a special effects company in the United States, don't care about money, special effects can't be bad."
When everything was settled, Chen Xuan found that 2 hours had passed, so he took Jin Yuan to eat together, although he had to work overtime, but he was not in a hurry at this time.
"Jin Yuan, has the distribution company contacted the theater chain?"
Chen Xuan and Jin Yuan found a restaurant casually, just to fill their stomachs, and they didn't need to run too far.
Jin Yuan took a bite hard, but he was so hungry that he didn't eat in the morning and worked until now.
"CJ didn't know why it was willing to give in, but agreed to the distribution ratio we proposed, and said that the theater chain would definitely try its best."
Chen Xuan smiled, the struggle between CJ and Samsung has become more and more fierce in the past two years, and Samsung suddenly stood on SK's side, CJ immediately reversed, and he was a fool who knew that CJ had placed a bet on his side.
"Okay, then prepare, work hard in the past few days, and strive to complete the editing before the 14th of next month, and release it on Valentine's Day."
Chen Xuan counted the days, it was released on Valentine's Day, just around the Spring Festival, which was a good day. Presumably, the box office will also be guaranteed.
"Okay, hurry up and eat, I'll have to go back to editing after eating."
Chen Xuan smiled at Jin Yuan, who was still in a daze, and didn't know why he was in a daze.
"Director Chen, you say, do you think I can direct a movie by myself in the future?"
Jin Yuan didn't listen to Chen Xuan's words, but raised his head to look at Chen Xuan.
"Why do you ask that all of a sudden?"
Chen Xuan looked at Jin Yuan in front of him, why did he suddenly become so serious, did something touch him?
"Director Chen, it's not like this, my ten-year-old son is still in elementary school, he knows that his father is a director and often shows off to his classmates, but he doesn't know that his father has always been just an assistant director, and he doesn't even have a movie directed by himself, and I don't know how to face him recently."
Kim Won wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, he had been in Chungmuro all his life, but he had never directed even a movie, and it sounded like a joke.
Chen Xuan sighed, and could only comfort him slowly.
"Don't worry, when the company in South Korea is established and the staff is complete, when you have a good script, I will invest in you?"
Jin Yuan looked at him with red eyes, as if he wanted to come up and hug Chen Xuan, but was slapped away by Chen Xuan.
"Don't be hypocritical, eat quickly, the top priority now is the editing of my movie, if you can't do it well, go back and continue to be an assistant director for me."
In the face of Chen Xuan's laughter and scolding, Jin Yuan just smiled and ate one bite at a time. Chen Xuan suddenly thought that there was news on the theme song yesterday, so he asked Jin Yuan to take a look, and let him make a decision directly if he could.
