The Director of Music Department

After Zhao Dongming heard Chen Gelin's thoughts, he felt bad.

But he couldn't, yes, he just couldn't refuse directly.

Because Chen Gelin was the first big director to vote, although compared to other big directors, Chen Gelin's qualifications or achievements are not as good as them, but he is still a big director.

Chen Gelin's story, this script, to be honest, even if Zhao Dongming doesn't understand movies, even from the perspective of an ordinary person, he doesn't like this movie at all.

Why?

Because this horse-riding person has no idea what the hell this movie is going to do!

Don't watch other people's literary movies, it seems to be in the fog, but at least, if a good literary movie, the script will not be so outrageous.

And the cost of Chen Gelin's idea is not low at all!

Zhao Dongming is getting a little bit waxy!

He really wanted to buy a horse bone with a thousand dollars, but he jumped into it knowing that it was a pit. This is not a small cost of several million. According to Chen Gelin's description, the cost of this movie will definitely not be too low.

Don't look at the bloody plot, but for aliens or something, special effects definitely need a lot.

However, if Zhao Dongming can become the CEO of Ahri Media, the city will not be so shallow!

"So, has Director Chen thought about how much budget this movie needs?" Zhao Dongming asked.

He still wants to make his last effort. If the cost is not too high, he is confident that he can convince the board of directors even if he is buying a horse bone for a thousand dollars.

In other words, if it is less than 20 million, he can make the decision directly.

Chen Gelin pointed to the document with a smile and said, "Mr. Zhao, I have been preparing for this movie for many years. In terms of budget and cost, it is all in the later documents. Maybe there will be a slight difference when it is actually filmed, but I want to come here. The difference will not be too big. It can be used as a reference!"

Zhao Dongming nodded, then opened it, and found the budget list Chen Gelin mentioned!

It has to be said that Chen Gelin does have a Hollywood demeanor in this regard, and this budget list is extremely detailed.

Each item is marked, why it is this number, and how it is.

However, when Zhao Dongming saw the last number, he couldn't help but gasped.

I called out in my heart, good guy, good guy!

Because, Chen Gelin's budget is too scary.

Two hundred million dollars! Zhao Dongming will not talk about the mantissa.

But that's scary enough.

He didn't know why, but suddenly there was an inexplicable anger and an inexplicable want to laugh.

Why?

To be honest, with 200 million US dollars, even Hollywood, even for this kind of project, is cautious.

At the same time, there are not many directors in Hollywood who can dare to say that they have managed such a high-cost large-scale production. Chen Gelin, why are you?

2 billion domestic box office?

Yes, Zhao Dongming admits that Chen Gelin may indeed have some skills, but with 200 million US dollars and such a script, to be honest, Zhao Dongming feels like being fooled.

What is he, Chen Gelin, when he is a ripper?

When he is Zhao Dongming?

Me, the big director, should I pay for it?

He couldn't help but think of some so-called tricks used by so-called literary and artistic film directors to steal money.

You talk to him about money, he talks to you about art, you talk to him about art, he asks you for money!

I am an artist, play money!

Zhao Dongming didn't know what to say for a while.

Looking at Chen Gelin who was full of confidence, Zhao Dongming secretly sighed.

Then Zhao Dongming smiled and said, "Director Chen, to be honest, the budget is a bit high."

Chen Gelin nodded and said: "Yes, the budget is indeed a bit high, but if you want to make a good movie, you still have to spend the money. For sci-fi movies, special effects are very important."

"Of course, I believe that after Mr. Zhao has read my budget list, he will find out that I, Chen Gelin, am not just talking like a lion. I have a place for every sum of money. Moreover, I am looking for Mr. Zhao because I know Domestically, Ahri Media has the strength to invest in my project."

Zhao Dongming slandered inwardly, what do you think of Ari?

However, he said: "Director Chen, of course our Ari has such ability and strength, but with all due respect, if it is a low-budget movie, I can pass it directly, but as big as Director Chen Even if it is Ahri Media and Alliance Pictures, they also need to go through the green light system, and I hope Director Chen can understand this point."

Chen Gelin nodded and said, "Naturally, but I believe this is not a problem."

Zhao Dongming didn't understand at all, Chen Gelin's self-confidence was borrowed, it was honey-juice confidence!

He can guarantee that this project of Chen Gelin, if it really enters the green light system of Alliance Films, it will not pass the first round.

Because, this horse riding, 200 million US dollars, just such a thing?

There is another point that Zhao Dongming didn't say. It can be said that he doesn't believe that there is any director in China other than Wang Yifan who can really manage such a high-cost movie.

The fact is also the same, Chen Hang tried, Zhou Zhan also tried, but in the end, they all went to the street.

Especially Zhou Zhan, the original "Five Realms" hit the street.

Even if it is a thousand dollars to buy a horse bone, Zhao Dongming has completely given up.

Because, this Chen Gelin can be said to be completely inflated to the limit.

Of course, on the surface, Zhao Dongming was very polite.

"Of course, I believe it too! Director Chen, I hope we can have a happy cooperation!" Zhao Dongming smiled and stretched out his hand.

"I hope so too!" Chen Gelin also said with a smile.

After seeing off Chen Gelin, the smile on Zhao Dongming's face disappeared immediately.

He rubbed between his brows!

"Xiao Lin, who is next?" Zhao Dongming asked the assistant.

Ahri Media threw out such a big bait, of course Chen Gelin was not the only option.

In fact, although there are not many great directors, there are still many excellent directors who have proven themselves in China to vote.

After all, that was a big Hollywood project.

For the vast majority of domestic directors, it is an extremely rare opportunity.

"..."

In the next few days, Zhao Dongming made appointments with many directors.

But what made Zhao Dongming uneasy was that none of the top directors came to the door.

Instead, many other domestic directors came.

But in the end, none of them could satisfy Zhao Dongming.

Although these directors can be regarded as excellent domestic directors, Zhao Dongming really doesn't have the confidence to let them control a large-scale production with an investment of more than 100 million US dollars.

In fact, for many directors, it's not that they are not strong enough, but that the key is lack of experience!

You know, the investment of more than 100 million U.S. dollars for a movie is more than 600 million Chinese dollars.

This kind of movie itself is a rare existence in China.

And most of these directors who came to the door have directed movies with a cost of 100 to 200 million Chinese dollars at most, and they have already broken the sky.

Asking them to suddenly direct such a high-cost movie is somewhat counterproductive.

However, Zhao Dongming naturally wouldn't let the other party come to him for nothing.

In fact, for Ahri Media and Alliance Pictures, there is really no shortage of projects, but people.
