It’s easy to find extras... For those young people who are still learning knowledge and skills, wouldn’t it be great to just lie down and act like a corpse and earn two hundred a day?

But this crew is really stingy, only charging 150 yuan a day, and they can shoot if they want or not.

Very willful.

After going through several colleges and universities... they found a total of fifty-three extras.

What disappointed Chen Laoguazi was that... none of these people had acting talent, so they had no choice but to recruit from film academies.

…

They came to Chiling Academy again.

After the recruitment information was sent out, only six people majoring in acting came to apply.

Two men and four women.

He looks pretty good.

At least they have some acting talent... After careful consideration, Chen Laoguazi recruited them all into the crew.

…

Now that we have the supporting roles... the next step is the protagonist.

What made Chen Laogua hesitate was that among the six people he recruited... one of them fit the image of the heroine in his mind, but none of the heroes fit the image.

He is not a person who likes to compromise... As he thought about it, his eyes fell on Lin Fei.

After watching for a long time, until the latter got goose bumps all over his body... he said quietly: "How about you play the male lead? You wrote the script, and I've read it. You fit the character very well..."

Lin Fei looked at him suspiciously.

"Are you sure?"

"Sure."

“I don’t have any acting skills…”

“You can learn…”

“…”Lin Fei.

Lin Fei wanted to refuse, but Chen Laogua just slapped his knee.

"That's it!"

“…”Lin Fei.

the next day.

The filming officially began, and Lin Fei's audition made Chen Laogua very satisfied.

The first shooting location was chosen in a primary college, specifically during the students' holidays. After obtaining the consent of the college, they will carry out three days of shooting here.

…

The story begins on an ordinary day.

As people were walking, there seemed to be sounds of commotion outside.

They stopped and watched.

boom!

The school gate was suddenly hit by a car... It sped all the way, finally rolled over and slid to the ground, sliding for a long distance.

The students around came forward to watch curiously... But the next second, a bloody hand suddenly stretched out.

Bang!

The screen went black.

"Card!"

Chen Laogua called for a stop immediately. The opening scene was filmed very smoothly and passed in three takes. This was what he wanted to see most.

…

"I just received news..."

He Yang hesitated to speak.

Chen Laogua took a look and seemed to have guessed something, but he didn't say anything and just kept smoking.

"That start-up capital...we didn't get it."

"How many?"

"Fifty million."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, a tenfold reduction isn't bad. Don't we still have five million? Start tightening your belts now. Let me do the math. Two and a half million for post-production... two million for filming, and five hundred thousand just to pay them... that's enough, that's enough."

Chen Laogua grinned.

Lin Fei was silent for a moment.

“We can get a loan…”

Chen Laogua shook his head helplessly.

"I'm still carrying millions of dollars in debt... I'd better not take out a loan. If I lose money, it could be a big problem."

"Are you so unsure of yourself?"

"We have no choice but to burn our boats now... there is no way out."

Lin Fei continued: "I have no debts, let me borrow 5 million..."

Chen Laogua opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, no words came out. He was indescribably moved.

Lin Fei was right... they had no way out and could only fight to the death.

…

Lin Fei borrowed five million yuan in his personal name for the purpose of filming a movie. Since they could produce relevant documents to prove it, everything went smoothly.

With 10 million in funding, they no longer had to live so frugally, and the filming went smoothly.

I have to say that Lin Fei is quite talented in acting. When he was writing the script, he would imagine himself as the protagonist to a large extent, so he naturally felt involved in the story. So from being a little shy at the beginning to being able to use it with ease later... Lin Fei has changed a lot.

…

After three months of filming, the film was announced to be completed.

After careful consideration, Chen Laogua and Lin Fei decided to invest nearly 6.5 million in post-production.

Except for dozens of shots that were taken at real locations... the rest of the shots, including the piles of zombies, were completed in post-production.

However, after the production, it was found that the funds were still insufficient, so He Yang took the risk and this time it was his turn to borrow 5 million yuan.

Five million was invested in special effects production...

The people in charge of post-production worked overtime, not daring to make the slightest mistake, not even the slightest flaw...

There was no other way, the director's requirements were too high, so they had to do as they were told...

…

The film was produced, and the next step was to promote it. Embarrassingly, they had spent all their money.

The films produced at the same time as theirs are now being hyped up with money, while they can only watch.

The entire crew was extremely anxious.

Although good movies will have audiences paying for them, if there are no publicity channels, who will know about such a movie?

“I’m very happy to be here with you all…”

"We've been together for a few months, and now the film has officially wrapped, but..."
