Chapter 113: Third-rate director

Listening to Lu Renjie's proposal, Gu Yun couldn't help but look embarrassed, although the bounty hunter business is extensive, even involved in food delivery, he basically has not had much contact with filming.

"Whether my studio can turn over depends on this time!" Lu Renjie saw Gu Yun's hesitation and aggravated his tone, "If this work can be popular, I will give you more than 10% of the profits, and now there is only one consultant and leading actor." ”

He is also bitter in his heart, after so many years in this industry, he has to admit that it was an accident that he became popular with cheap shooting methods and special effects, and the only thing he could do in that era was creativity.

But creativity is like a flash of inspiration, and no one can guarantee that they will always come up with new ideas that will make people shine, and their ideas at that time were quickly "borrowed" by other big film and television companies, and within a few years there were several documentary-style horror movies, and today, this method has become an old routine and makes people not interested.

With the studio's current financial resources, it can't afford to produce big scenes at all, and it can't afford to invite any stars, and even the dragon set and the third-tier little stars turned down his invitation as soon as they heard that they were an unfamous studio.

Several small-budget productions that were tried later also hit the streets, and did not cause any repercussions in the market, and the saddest thing for a producer is that there are no bad reviews at all, and no one discusses their work at all.

"But I don't know much about this, so you should tell me more about your plan."

"Our current plan is to shoot a sequel, and my knowledge and level have also improved over the years, as long as I follow the past model, I will definitely be able to shoot better works."

Lu Renjie has a passion for the studio's turnaround, "The script is tentatively set for a team of imitators to draw inspiration from that work and live for three days in the famous abandoned haunted hospital in X City. ”

New locations, new characters, and new filming methods – this work will definitely bring a new experience to the audience!

"Avril, what do you think?"

Gu Yun didn't have much say in the movie, so he turned his head and asked Avril Lavigne, who had been listening, after all, if they took the commission, Avril would have a hard time as the starring role.

Avril looked at Gu Yun, and her face was also embarrassed.

To be honest, she felt that the plan proposed by Lu Renjie was not very good.

She also chased a lot of similar dramas and movies when she was in school, since it is a low-budget production, there must be a story or idea that can catch people's attention, but Lu Renjie's idea was used by themselves a few years ago, and it was later used by other film and television companies.

In layman's terms, it means that the place that should be brand new is not brand new, but it is particularly particular about some indifferent details.

So this kind of film, there is a way out - selling feelings.

However, Lu Renjie does not have any fan base, although the first short film has been popular for a while, after all, it was several years ago, and now no one knows that he is a person. Although Avril does not reject the feeling of being a star, this kind of display is clearly going for bad movies, and she is a little reluctant to explain her screen debut here.

"May I ask what happened in the abandoned hospital?"

With the last lost hope, Avril asked Lu Renjie.

"It's not decided yet, the story can go with the flow, and the plot behind us was also discussed together when we arrived at the place."

Lu Renjie sighed with emotion, his first work was undoubtedly his golden age, when he was still a fresh graduate with top ambition, and a work made him the peak of his debut.

"So you haven't written an outline yet?"

"It can be understood that way."

Give me back!

I closed the studio and went back to my hometown to sell sweet potatoes!

Making movies isn't for you at all!

The last glimmer of hope was also ruthlessly extinguished, Avril wanted to point to the door and persuade Lu Renjie to quit the third company, it should be said that it was a miracle that this person was able to shoot a short film with a small fire.

"Regarding the story, as an expert in paranormal phenomena, Mr. Gu Yun will definitely be able to give us the most professional guidance, and after seeing the entry on the website, I believe in Mr. Gu Yun like this."

"Then it can't be helped."

Originally, Gu Yun was still wavering, but when he heard Lu Renjie's words, he immediately made a decision - when he told others that there were evil spirits in this world before, no one believed him, but this middle-aged man could see at a glance that he had amazing knowledge reserves in the supernatural, which could be regarded as a kind of fate.

Especially the phrase "professional guidance" simply spoke to Gu Yun's heart.

He has never acted, let alone made a movie, but his knowledge of evil spirits should have reached the level of an old soul slayer.

"When are we needed?"

"If I could, it would be best to go and see the venue tonight, and I rented it for a week with the rest of the money for this shoot."

"Leave me the address, and we'll meet there in the evening."

Then the two left each other's contact information and addresses, and agreed to meet at the abandoned hospital on the outskirts of the city at ten o'clock in the evening, and Lu Renjie's "professional" successfully ignited Gu Yun's fighting spirit.

"But...... His idea has no future at all, and it is completely a standard template for bad movies. ”

As an employee, Avril had to carefully give advice to the arbitrary Gu Yun, although the verbal promise of 10% profit seemed very good, but everything was in vain if he couldn't make money.

Even if you shoot the biography of the Witch of Dusk, it is much more gimmicky than Lu Renjie's current idea.

"Avril, you're still young, and you can't see many things thoroughly." Gu Yun did not have the slightest consciousness that he was only a few years older than Avril, and said in an old-fashioned manner, "Success standing on the shoulders of giants is nothing, turning waste into treasure is the value of experts." ”

Ho.

It's a set of things, but have you ever made a movie?

Avril couldn't help but complain in her heart, with what she knew about Gu Yun these days, she was sure that Gu Yun would definitely not have watched as many dramas as her, and among everyone, that is, Sister An Ling could be on par with her.

This is all the entertainment of modern people, but Gu Yun's lifestyle is stuck in the thirties of the last century.

If making a movie were so simple, then everyone would become a great director - Lu Renjie's way of thinking and ideas are still stuck in the college days of several years ago, and Avril really doesn't know what he has learned over the years.

"That'...... All right. ”

Even though she has a lot of dissatisfaction in her heart, she works in Gu Yun's place, she has to look at Gu Yun's face to act, and the boss has spoken, if she resolutely contradicts, she will definitely be beaten, right?

Forget it, anyway, this film is decided, and few people will see it.

It took less than a week to die, and it was over after a while.

………………

The business was negotiated, and when he returned home, Lu Renjie sat down at his computer desk with a sigh of relief.

It was dark inside, and the only source of light came from the computer screen.

This is his dream all along, and this time he can only succeed and not fail!

He closed An Ling's main business designed for Gu Yun and clicked on another website with a trembling hand.

The page went dark.

Moments later, a stunningly beautiful woman appeared on the computer screen.

She had long, silky black hair, ruby pupils calmly staring at Lu Renjie, and a shimmer of light under her right eye that looked like a spell.

The room was eerily quiet, except for the cold tones coming out of the headphones.

"Your wishes."

"I hear you."
