Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

For Liao Kuncheng and Liu Zhenrong, it is not easy at all to gain Lin Daoqiu's trust.

If they are unable to perform to the satisfaction of Lin Daoqiu, then they will end up fishing for the moon in the water and getting nothing.

As for Lin Daoqiu, at least it is not clear how important Liao Kuncheng and Liu Zhenrong are.

The two of them are just a casual move made by Lin Daoqiubu. After all, having a few more cards in his hand is not a bad thing for him, and he does not necessarily use them as a trump card.

If they can really come in handy then, Lin Daoqiu doesn't mind giving them some benefits.

After all, compared with Baodao and Xiangjiang, Xiangjiang is obviously more important to Lin Daoqiu.

"Right,"

…………

Lin Daoqiu had previously left all the preparation work for "Alien Invaders" to McDonald's head.

Originally, McDonald's came to Taiwan to shoot a gunfight movie, and he even made a lot of preparations in advance.

But unexpectedly, after arriving in Treasure Island, Lin Daoqiu suddenly changed his mind and wanted to make a science fiction movie.

Although this was far beyond McDonald's expectation, the budget for this shooting was as high as 100 million US dollars, which had offset all his negative thoughts.

But this is the first time to make a science fiction movie. Although there is no need to worry about the production cost, McDonald, who has no previous experience in this area, still has a very difficult time in the early preparations.

Fortunately, Lin Daoqiu asked Dykstra to send a special effects team to help with the preparations, so that McDonald's eyes were not completely black.

"How about it? It's your first time filming a science fiction film. Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

When he saw Lin Daoqiu, McDonald was so happy that he almost cried.

During the period when the other party was away, McDonald encountered many problems that he could not solve almost every day.

Even with the help of the special effects team, he is often needed to make the decision.

"Mr. Lin, when I first heard about the budget of 100 million U.S. dollars, I almost laughed like crazy. But when I started preparing for this film, I realized how difficult science fiction movies are."

"Science fiction movies are not an easy subject in the first place. Not only are they time-consuming and labor-intensive, but the money is also spent like water. Not to mention that you have never been exposed to science fiction movies before. I can understand that you will feel pressure."

If you were looking for someone to make a science fiction movie, McDonald's would definitely not be among Lin Daoqiu's top three choices.

This time it can only be said that McDonald's was just a coincidence. In addition, Lin Daoqiu had no intention of seriously filming, so he was asked to direct.

However, Lin Daoqiu would never say this to McDonald Xiongming. After all, it is better to keep such words in his heart.

Otherwise, Lin Daoqiu would not have abandoned this movie with a budget of 100 million U.S. dollars and went to the crew of "The Story of Qianlong", and then stayed outside with Pan Yingzi for more than ten days.

"Mr. Lin, do you really think I can film this movie well?"

This is not the first time that McDonald's doubted whether he could film this movie well. He has been asking himself this question for a while.

He had never come across this subject before. McDonald really couldn't understand why Lin Daoqiu trusted him so much. He didn't even think he could make this science fiction film well.

"Of course I believe you, otherwise I wouldn't have entrusted you with directing this play."

Unexpectedly, Lin Daoqiu looked at him with such special eyes. McDonald had never felt that Lin Daoqiu was so optimistic about him.

"Thank you Mr. Lin, I will definitely try my best."

With the support of Lin Daoqiu, although McDonald was under great pressure, he believed that he could still persevere.

Even if he has any shortcomings, as long as Lin Daoqiu is around, he can point them out immediately, so he doesn't need to worry too much.

While Lin Daoqiu and McDonald were chatting, Zhang Jingyu suddenly appeared on the set with his secretary Xu Chengpeng.

"Mr. Lin, I'm not disturbing you."

Zhang Jingyu came to the studio to see Lin Daoqiu today to learn about the preparation progress of the film "Alien Invaders".

A few days ago, Li Zhengnan asked about the production progress of this drama. At that time, Zhang Jingyu only said that it was going very smoothly, but he didn't actually know the specific situation.

Although he was deceived by himself in the end, Zhang Jingyu didn't want it to happen again, so he went to the studio today specifically to learn about the preparation progress of this drama.

"Director Zhang is really a rare visitor. What brought you here today?"

When Lin Daoqiu saw Zhang Jingyu, he immediately smiled and then stepped forward to shake hands with him.

"Mr. Lin, to tell you the truth, as the director of the unit that assists this drama, I naturally have to keep abreast of the production progress of this drama. After all, this drama is of great importance and there is absolutely no room for any mistakes."

Lin Daoqiu nodded while listening, and then walked inside with Zhang Jingyu.

After almost a month, the studio on Baodao has been built to a large scale, with a modern international coalition headquarters and some aircraft models, all of which are masterpieces of Magic Studio.

And just on the international coalition headquarters and those models, more than three million US dollars were spent.

While listening to Lin Daoqiu's introduction, Zhang Jingyu felt his heart bleed. It was such a waste to spend three million US dollars like this.

Originally, Zhang Jingyu was thinking about letting Lin Daoqiu save some money. In the end, it was best not to spend all the $100 million and save some.

But in this case, Zhang Jingyu could only think about it and give it up. After all, the money was not Lin Daoqiu's own, so how could he save money.

"This is just the beginning. There will be more novel models and props later, and those are where the real money will be spent."

Zhang Jingyu didn't expect that what he saw now was just the beginning. Spending so much money on these inexplicable places was really incomprehensible to Zhang Jingyu.

"Mr. Lin, is it really useful to spend so much budget on these models and props?"

Zhang Jingyu had to express his concerns to Lin Daoqiu. After all, in his opinion, those models looked like toys. Do they really need to spend so much money to get them?

"Director Zhang, you don't understand. Don't underestimate these models and props. Their effectiveness in the movie will definitely be far beyond your imagination."

"Director Zhang can imagine how excited the audiences will be when they see these alien spaceships when this drama is released abroad. I can't wait for it myself."

Lin Daoqiu is a professional and an internationally renowned film tycoon. Since he has said so himself, Zhang Jingyu does not dare to question anything. After all, he is just a layman and is not qualified to tell Lin Daoqiu about movies.
