The work "Hell Apartment" can be regarded as a relatively representative book of horror and thriller among online novels.

It's kind of like an infinite stream, but it doesn't planeswalk.

This book roughly tells the story of the protagonist Li Yin, who lives in a terrifying apartment.

This apartment has two rules.

The first is that you should never leave the apartment for more than forty-eight hours, except on a 'blood mission'.

The second is that the Scarlet task must be carried out.

Break these two rules, then you will die.

The so-called Scarlet Quest is only in this apartment, once the Scarlet Letters appear on the walls of the room, you must go to the designated place according to the instructions of the Scarlet Letters, fill the specified time, or do the prescribed things. And once you reach the pointing point, you will face endless supernatural and terrifying phenomena, and countless ghosts and ghosts in the depths of nightmares will be everywhere, claiming your life.

And although the apartment is called hell, the inside of the apartment is the safest place, and if you leave the apartment, you may be harmed by ghosts in the outside world.

Entering this apartment is equivalent to embarking on a road of no return.

This novel, Fan Zhe still remembers that he often read it in the middle of the night. He is not very good at reading ghost stories, and his resistance to this aspect is relatively weak, so when reading this book, he is often frightened to the point that his soul is not possessed.

Let him do the adaptation of a horror film...... Well, it shouldn't be so scary when you do it...... Right?

But no matter what, this is also a work that he likes more, and the key is that the price of the IP adaptation is not expensive, and the full copyright is received in his hand, and the price of Lewen is only three million, and there is room to continue talking.

According to Fan Zhe's estimate, the final price should be able to be compressed to about two million, and it may be cheaper.

That's pretty reliable.

The copyright of the work "Hell Apartment" is considered to be nine out of ten, and Fan Zhe is thinking about what form this work should be produced.

Animation? It's not impossible, but it's not good enough.

I always feel that something like a horror movie should be a better choice to make a live-action drama.

But filming a live-action drama, this is a bit beyond the scope of Fan Zhe's experience.

In his understanding, the creation of a drama series is divided into three parts: preliminary preparation, formal shooting by the crew, and post-production.

Maybe the post-production isn't too much of a problem. Although 'Dimension Entertainment' has not done work on film and television special effects for the time being, it should be able to solve it under the premise that the 'Dimension' system has this function.

However, what should be done in the early stage of preparation, and what should be done about the specific shooting?

There should be a special person in charge of this part, and if Fan Zhe gets it himself, he will inevitably have to pay a lot of tuition.

Even if you pay for tuition, the cost of time is a very important issue.

However, despite the difficulties, it is a road that must be taken. In the future, Fan Zhe does not want the business of 'Dimension Entertainment' to be limited to animation.

Of course, animation, including the follow-up CG animation with higher technical content, is definitely the top priority of the company's business. However, many, many of Fan Zhe's favorite works, the best way to express them will still be movies and TV series.

There's always a beginning.

In Fan Zhe's conception, this beginning is either "Hell Apartment" or "Fantasy Three Kingdoms".

……

Una, who was staying at home and reading, received a phone call.

It's Du Zhengde's.

"Hey, Xiaowu?"

"It's me, Director Du."

"That...... There's something I'd like to ask you for. ”

From the embarrassment revealed in Director Du's voice, Una probably guessed the meaning of Du Zhengde's call.

Sure enough.

"Can you ...... Could you please contact Mr. Fan? Persuade him, you also participated in this project, if the shooting effect is good and the box office is high, it will be very good for yourself. ”

Una said: "I am just friends with Mr. Fan, and I am afraid that I can't influence his decision." Since he has already decided that he does not want to do this project, I can't persuade him too much. ”

Du Zhengde, who was on the other side of the phone, was complaining in his heart: Friendship? This friend is really iron.

But you can't say that. Although he is a director and not a big name, he has a little fame, and his status is definitely not comparable to a small actor like Una.

In fact, it is true, in the crew, he is more supportive of Una, but he thinks too much about communicating on an equal footing.

However, the situation is different now, and behind Una stands a man named Fan Zhe.

The boss of a company that can do special effects, but now it is their crew who has a request.

It can't be helped.

Du Zhengde didn't talk to Una in a low voice because of this, but he definitely couldn't be arrogant.

Taking a deep breath, Du Zhengde changed his direction and continued to persuade: "The overall value of this project is 17 million, think about it, what is the concept of 17 million?" This is a big business, and it would be a pity if Fan gave up because of you, because of a little personal conflict. ”

"This ......"

Sensing that Una's attitude had changed, Du Zhengde made persistent efforts: "Think about it, in fact, this matter comes to an end, that is, Wang Lingxian's guy was a little unruly at the beginning. Of course, his behavior is very bad, but there is no need to let the whole business go down like this because of this little thing, right? Besides, Wang Lingxian has already received the punishment he deserves, and he was immediately fired from the crew. Xiaowu, I think you also have to put out the fire and talk to Mr. Fan. ”

These words moved Una.

For Wang Lingxian, Una hates it very much. However, after all, she is no longer the time to be young and frivolous, she understands the concept of seventeen million, which is money that most people can't earn in their lifetime.

She didn't want to let Fan Zhe lose so much because of herself.

If Fan Zhe really doesn't want to do it, then that's it; But it is clear that "Dimension Entertainment" and the crew of "Shadow Wars" have already talked about it, but because of themselves, something happened.

It's really not good.

"That's okay, Director Du."

"You promised?"

"Hmm...... I'll give Fan Zhe a call to persuade him, but I can't guarantee the outcome. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, you just do your best, just do your best."

After hanging up the phone, Du Zhengde wiped the sweat on his head.

He's very, very, very dissatisfied with the investors right now.

Earlier, when he received such a commercial production, he was quite happy; However, after the crew was built, he gradually encountered a lot of unpleasant things.

It's true that he's a director, but he has very little power in the crew. The investment direction is to the United States, learn from Hollywood, and implement the producer system. Hu Kang, the chief producer, has a greater say in the crew than him.

The most concentrated performance lies in the casting.

Du Zhengde didn't want little fresh meat. He knows that the participation of those traffic stars will bring a large number of fans, but that person's acting skills are ...... He really can't look at it.

Moreover, the salary of this kind of popular traffic star is too expensive.

However, Hu Kang, on behalf of the employer's opinion, must be invited, which makes Du Zhengde have no way at all.
