China Entertainment: Director’s happiness is so simple

Chapter 51 It can’t be such a coincidence, right?

"Comet" was released in an orderly manner, and Lu Pingan's promotional tasks were not many. After traveling to a few big cities, it was temporarily over.

Before the movie was finished, Lu Pingan decided to finish the low-cost fantasy film in his hand.

I returned to Nortel with the script, and on the way to Hu Qingquan's office, I searched for freshmen in the school's art exams.

The art exam has reached the final round, and there are already many fewer new students.

At a glance, there are many more familiar people.

Zhu Yawen, Luo Jin, Jiang Yiyan, Zhou Yang. . .

Liu Yifei didn't see it, and neither did Huang Bo, which was a pity.

Lu Pingan had heard a bit about Liu Yifei's art exam.

In short, it is mostly relationship theory.

In fact, among the students who take the art exam, it is not normal to have a good relationship.

But Liu Yifei is only 15 years old after all, which makes people think even more.

So I haven’t seen it now. Is it because people don’t need to take such an art test at all?

Shaking his head, Lu Pingan stopped thinking about these things.

Along the way, when the young freshmen saw Lu Pingping, they timidly paid attention and boldly called out "Senior Lu" or "Director Lu".

Recently, "Comet" has received good reviews and box office, with a box office of 11.6 million in 12 days of release.

The production cost was less than 1 million, and it sold 11.6 million box office. It is very likely that it will reach 20 million in the future. There are also millions in copyright fees that have been reported.

Lu Ping'an has become a "grossing director", and in the eyes of the students, he is a serious "great director".

So everyone looked at him with respect, admiration, and eagerness that made people's skin crawl.

Lu Ping An is very down-to-earth and responds with a kind nod or smile. When he sees someone who looks familiar, he will say "come on".

Zhu Yawen is one of the candidates who got "come on".

"come on!"

"Thank you, Director Lu."

"You're welcome. Play well. I look forward to seeing you at school in the second half of the year."

"I will do my best!"

Zhu Yawen didn't expect that he would actually receive a response to his greeting. He seemed to be greatly inspired and smiled brightly.

After wandering around for a while, he still didn't see Liu Yifei or Huang Bo. Lu Pingan simply stopped looking and went directly to Hu Qingquan's office.

When he arrived at the office, Hu Qingquan was chatting with the director of the directing department.

When he saw Lu Ping'an coming, Hu Qingquan knew exactly why he was here: "You must have come here in a pinch, so I have some free time."

"He who can do it should work harder."

Lu Ping'an smiled and handed over the script.

The enrollment process for the directing department has ended, and Hu Qingquan can continue to help manage the crew. In addition, there are only art exams for the acting department left in the school, which is a good time to observe.

Lu Ping'an was really careful to take advantage of this time.

"A new show is coming?!"

When Lu Pingan handed over the script, the department head was a little surprised. "Comet" hasn't been released yet, and Lu Pingan has started a new drama. The hen can't lay eggs faster than him.

Hu Qingquan looked calm: "Let's watch it together."

He has become accustomed to Lu Pingan's "high productivity", and he hopes that Lu Pingan can make more achievements.

Then the two read the script together.

This time Lu Ping An brings another brain-burning masterpiece: "Time and Space Crime", also known as "Time and Space Crime".

It tells the story of the protagonist going back in time, seeing his second and third selves, and falling into a cycle of killing and being killed, being committed and committing crimes, intimidating and the perpetrator being all himself.

This film was also the inspiration for "Terror Cruise".

In this era, it is indeed quite pioneering.

However, Lu Ping An is still very open-minded about whether he can win awards. It would be great if he could improve his skills. It would be even better if he could sell copyrights. If he could win awards, it would be for nothing.

After more than half an hour, Hu Qingquan took off his glasses. He really couldn't think of any new words of praise. In the end, he could only rub his temples and laugh: "Being your fan is sometimes tiring and tiring, but I love it." !”

Lu Ping'an shrugged: "This is true for all brain-burning movies."

"You can't burn your brain all the time. If you can, you should relax a little bit and expand your fan base."

"Okay, I'll try to make a lighter one later."

The two of them chatted and settled the matter.

The next step is still the same, with Hu Qingquan as the producer, the staff of Star Film and Television, and the senior students recruited to help form the crew.

Lu Ping'an was responsible for the director, money, finding actors, and other things that Hu Qingquan couldn't handle.

Lu Pingan also asked the dean of the department: "The dean can also help if he is willing."

"I'll forget it, it's just a mess." The director shook his head, his face full of pity. He really wanted to participate, but he was here and couldn't help it.

"So this is the benefit of not being a director!" Hu Qingquan laughed.

The head of the department ignored this bad friend and directly asked Lu Ping'an: "If you need anything, just ask. My hands are still longer than this old guy's."

Hu Qingquan laughed and scolded: "Three hands, you."

"Is octopus okay?"

The two started talking to each other, and it was obvious that they had a really good relationship.

Lu Ping'an really needed some help, so he then asked:

"Director, I'll look for the actors myself first. It would be best if you could help me find the big villa in the film. I want an open manor with a small forest. It's too small. Can you help me find it? One?"

Everyone has read the script, and as soon as he mentioned it to the department head, he understood what the script wanted.

But this requirement is indeed a bit high. Hu Qingquan frowned slightly: "This is not easy to find in the capital."

At this time, the department head on the side became proud: "Just say you have short hands. Ping An, please wait a moment and I will make a call."

The director said and went to make a phone call.

Then he came back very quickly: "It's done. It's in the capital. It's the house of a big boss of a real estate company. You can check it out in the afternoon. If it's suitable, use it. They don't charge money there, and they can also give you advertising fees."

Hu Qingquan asked doubtfully: "Is it really that easy?"

"There must be some requirements." The director smiled and clicked on the script, "If you really want to mention it, you can add an insignificant role."

It is normal in the industry for the boss to invest in a project and give Xiaomi a chance.

Lu Ping'an thought about it and thought it was feasible. If the other party, Xiaomi, was not too young, the second female lead in the film could be given to her. After all, the second female lead didn't have many roles in total. To put it bluntly, she was just a decoration. It can be said that as long as the female is a living Yes, just don’t be too young.

If you are really young, then it will be a little more troublesome. After all, there are only 4 people in the film, and it is definitely impossible for the female lead to play her. It will be a bit troublesome to add one.

As a result, the director then said: "The big boss's goddaughter is also taking the art exam this year, and the exam is from our school. He has put a lot of effort into this matter. He must have agreed so easily because of this. Ping An You look at the arrangement, and if you really don’t want to change the script, I’ll help you with it then.”

Lu Ping'an nodded when he heard the words, but in fact he had already started to think about it.

The godfather of the big boss, the goddaughter who took the art exam this year. . .

It can't be such a coincidence, right?

Regardless of whether it was as guessed or not, Lu Ping'an felt that he should agree first. After all, the venue was indeed not easy to find and the advertising fees were indeed affordable.

"Then, let's go and see it later."
