Chapter 72 Budget Casting

Chapter 72 Budget, Casting

"He and Director Ning Hao filmed a MV for a girl?"

Hearing Shu Chang talk about this matter, Liu Yifei was a little curious and even a little bit amused.

…

Speaking of the first round of competition, there were so many directors and teams who were invited. Regardless of whether they had confidence and confidence, they were all excited. They had been waiting for this national feast for many years.

After the mobilization meeting, Lin Nan made it clear that he would not participate in the recruitment competition. He just didn't know how many people were absent in the first round of competition.

The efficiency of the General Administration was very high, and the results came out within a few days. Lin Nan once again praised Teacher Tian.

"Don't be complacent. Logically speaking, you can't do it so fast, but the book is really good, so I asked for some favors. I'm also familiar with the people on the review committee, so I joined the team for you..."

Tian Zhuangxian smiled, as if he was talking about something trivial.

In the latest announcement from the General Administration, there is already news about Lin Nan's new script, and what some media reported previously has been certified.

"Contact him and inquire about the role."

Lin Nan felt that she had to give Shu Chang a hard slap on the head, actually digging a trap to harm herself, even if she took the initiative to admit her mistake.

Shu Chang felt that he talked too much that day, and Sissi seemed a bit unsmiling in the past two days.

"I testify that this is not the case." Zhu Yawen interrupted.

After half an hour, the call ended.

"How much did it cost?"

"Okay, I'll take my time and watch."

Liu Yifei's smile disappeared.

Lin Nan replied one by one, saying that the matter has been settled.

Wang Changtian complained.

He turned down Hua Yi's dinner party. Those two ice soldiers were not easy to get along with. He could just send out resumes normally.

"Why am I weird?"

Liu's mother went to help Liu Yifei negotiate for endorsements, so she is not here today. The few of them are enjoying themselves in the garden.

"Old Ren, it's me..."

"Don't think about it. There is no role suitable for you. Haven't you sent out all the requests? Besides, the filming time coincides with "Journey to the Center of the Earth"."

All brokerage companies and brokers are taking action.

"Do you want to come with Yawen?"

Han Sanping was a little happy.

Zhu Yawen and Shu Chang were also sitting nearby.

Lin Nan ordered someone to do it.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. But I hope it can be released in multiple regions by then. I hope Mr. Han can help me contact you in this regard."

"who?"

When I arrived at the company the next day, the HR person walked into Lin Nan's office with an arm full of resumes.

After arriving at the destination, Shu Chang avoided Lin Nan's eyes from a distance, like a primary school student who had done something wrong.

…

The assistant reported the content of the email to Wang Jinghua.

"Mr. Han?"

"Send all the resumes that meet the requirements. No, print them out and send them over."

Everyone knows that the protagonist of this movie is a female character, and the competition among female stars in the industry is much fiercer than that of male artists.

"He was appointed by default. I called him on the day he was sent for trial, and a girl with a weak voice answered the phone."

Good guy, there are more than 300 copies in paper version alone, and there are even more emails. This is the result of age.

"Brother, it wasn't me who was quick, but Mr. Han who was quick. He came to me first and made the decision in person."

"Mr. Ren, yes, let's follow this plan. As for the time, I would like to arrange to start filming after the Golden Rooster. I will be ready to find actors in two days. The location will be in Sanya to save trouble..."

Liu Yifei said coldly.

"knew."

"When inspiration comes, I have a notebook and send it for review. President Han just came to talk to me about investment this morning, and I have been on a break for ten months."

"I think you did it on purpose."

"This time I will give out at most one-third of my share."

"add a bit?"

Seeing what Liu Yifei wanted to say, Lin Nan took the lead.

"Mr. Han, I just finished the book, are you too impatient?"

"Who asked you to call them? They are so busy." Liu Yifei's voice gradually became smaller.

Han Sanping has been very busy recently, so he still found time to ask Lin Nan, "How much does it cost?"

Zhu Yawen smiled treacherously, asking questions knowingly.

"It's okay, it's just that the teacher who shot the music video was a bit shy."

"You've been back for a few days, let's get together," Shu Chang said.

"You actually hit me, I'll fight with you...", the Tianshan child's grandmother instantly got into her arms.

Putting the phone on the table, Han Sanping saw the incoming call.

Shu Chang lost her usual liveliness all afternoon, and finally Lin Nan knocked her twice as revenge.

After leaving China Film and Television, Lin Nan ignored several other missed calls and called Ren Zhonglun.

Some big-name or familiar actors would contact Lin Nan directly, and he would just reply that he would seriously consider it, compare it, and give a reply.

"Okay, leave this matter to me. This is the first time you have made such a request. It seems that you are very confident in this movie."

"You are also a hot potato now, so start early and feel at ease." Han Sanping joked.

Ren Zhonglun, like Han Sanping, is the second-in-command of the two groups, but in terms of the right to speak, Ren Zhonglun is already equivalent to the first-in-command position in Shanghai Film Studio, and he can handle big and small matters with one hand.

…

"Okay, I'll go shoot it for you. Ning Hao directed the MV for someone two days ago, and I even went to try it out. That machine is awesome."

"Director Lin, these are all the resumes we have so far. These are the paper versions sent directly, and some are sent by email. You can read them directly in your mailbox."

Lin Nan said calmly.

Liu Yifei said unhappily.

"Okay, Director Lin."

Both Liu Yifei and Shu Chang saw the news that Lin Nan was looking for actors for a new movie.

Lin Nan expected this step.

Zhu Yawen looked like she had seen through Lin Nan's intentions.

Han Sanping asked again, this time his tone was much softer, but his eyes were very eager. It was less than two years before the election...

"The role requirements are in my office. Return them to them. You can send your resume first. I will select them and invite them if they are suitable."

The office of the deputy director of China Film Group was quite large, and it was a little quiet at the moment.

"If you talk less, the cats won't be petted anymore."

"How was the recording?"

"It's boring, I originally wanted to ask that girl if she was pretty.

"Stingy guy." Pouting, Shu Chang followed.

…

Zhu Yawen was driving in front, ignoring Lin Nan's face in the rearview mirror, and continued, "Sister Hua sent someone to your company to send her resume. There is no one from me, so she guessed it quite accurately."

"Thirty million." Lin Nan glanced at Han Sanping.

"Added to four thousand, China Film and Shanghai Film will cost half as much." Han Sanping smiled like a fox at this time.

…

"How much should we add?"

These words brought Zhu Yawen back to her original shape.

From the moment he told Han Sanping that he would only give up one-third of his share, he was ready to pull the strings. Mr. Ren's call came at the right time, saving him trouble.

Before Lin Nan could react, Han Sanping had already picked up his phone.

Finally, he stepped forward bravely and said, "Hey, Lin Nan, you won't be angry with me, right?"

Liu Yifei was very curious, what was she going to do?

After a while, Shu Chang walked in from the yard, smiled and shook the phone in his hand, "I called Lin Nan, Zhu Yawen and the others came to play."

"You can stay with China Film Group for the later stage and try not to make any money. After all, we are the producer, and the quality will definitely not be bad."

When Han Sanping heard these words, he became more energetic.

"President Han's career is promising. Now is the time to accumulate performance and reputation."

Regarding the issue of multi-regional issuance, I still need help from my eldest brother. I have to ask these two companies for help in everything. He accepts this investment allocation plan.

"By the way, you've been grimacing all this time, what's wrong with you?"

"Just give it away. This movie has already been decided, with a budget of 40 million. I think my resume will be piled high, and I'll watch some later."

Han Sanping suggested.

Lin Nan had some thoughts in his heart.

Lin Nan heard Mr. Han talking to Ren Zhonglun on the phone about some things, and he didn't mention a single word about business matters, but he felt that every sentence was consistent with business matters.

"That's right. You and Director Ning, two great directors, will give a platform to a newcomer, and everyone will have some ideas."

Han Sanping looked at Lin Nan who was smiling bitterly and asked.

It was too late to stop him, so he answered the phone.

Lin Nan admitted that he was moved. China Film Group plays a big brother role in the industry. It has good equipment and excellent talents. Hard science fiction may not be available, but soft science fiction is still available.

"I'm not familiar with you."

"Sister Hua, the role requirements sent by Lin Nan Film and Television are currently only accepting resumes."

"You don't go to class, and you came here just to say this?"

I knew this would happen, but fortunately everyone obeyed the rules and did not directly harass Lin Nan.

Wang Jinghua paused and said with a smile, "I won't waste those two pieces of paper."

"You are so fast!"

Most companies had roughly the same reaction, thinking about whether they could let their own actors audition for the scene, or directly book the roles.

"You've been acting weird lately."

Wang Changtian also understands.

A sudden vibration sounded, and Lin Nan subconsciously took out his cell phone.

Lin Nan was mentally prepared, and it was actually quite fast. It might take a few rounds to pick the right one, but he could tell at a glance what was not suitable.

The little girl's mood when eating food is quite interesting, Lin Nan thinks so.

Tell me about your movie. How come it’s only been a few days and not only has the script been written, but you’ve also started looking for actors?”

When Liu Yifei didn't say anything, Shu Chang ran away.

Shu Chang moved his position and sat next to Liu Yifei.

good buddies!

"You are definitely the default actor, right?"

"Ask the shooting start time and see if our people have a chance."

Liu Yifei was also joking and looked at Lin Nan with evil intentions.

"Don't listen to his nonsense. The new assistant is a few months younger than me and just graduated from a junior college."

Back at the company, Lin Nan was told that she had received a lot of inquiries about the casting and auditions.

I feel like what Han Sanping said makes sense.

"Why do actresses need to be over 25 years old?"

…

Lin Nan was caught off guard by asking directly about the film's budget.

Collect your resume first. After all, it’s just Lin Nan’s talk. Some people are not suitable for this method because of human relationships in society and human circles.

Saying that, he walked away with a dark face.

The more Lin Nan wants to go it alone, the more optimistic he is about profits.

Now the two women were interested, "Have you got a girlfriend?"

Lin Nan took advantage of the situation and made some requests.

China Film and Lin Nan have been working together for so long, and he has a rough idea of what this guy is thinking.

Shu Chang said with a pout.

"Science fiction movies, even if they are soft science fiction, have to be well-made, or should the cost be increased?"

"I was laughing so hard." Zhu Yawen was amused.

"Drive well, you smile so obscenely."

The assistant was also an old man. Knowing what Wang Jinghua meant, he could only lament Zhu Yawen's good life.

The first thing a few old friends thought of was investment.

"Should your director's and screenwriter's fees be increased? How sophisticated is the post-production? Don't save what you shouldn't..."
