Chapter 717 What is the 10 billion club? Is it that difficult?
Galaxy Entertainment is also worried.
Since the music business was completely separated, Galaxy has freed up a large amount of energy and financial resources to increase investment in film and television.
In addition, for this year's summer season, Galaxy also launched two movies with a big budget, one commercial film and one campus film.
Not only that, in the second half of the year, Galaxy has also prepared a movie for the National Day and Spring Festival, a total of four movies, three of which are big productions, which can be said to be a big deal.
It's just that the movie has been completed and is about to be scheduled for release, but Xinghe received news that Lin Fan not only finished filming "Butterfly Lovers", but also that low-budget youth film. If he speeds up the progress, maybe he can catch up with the summer season!
Isn't this a scheduling conflict?
Normally, there will be many movies of the same type released in the same period, so it is normal for the release dates to collide. But Lin Fan is not normal. This guy slapped many people in the face with a low-budget movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" last year!
Who knows what Lin Fan will do in this year's "Liang Zhu"?
Now that a campus movie has been completed, it is really hard for Xinghe not to think about whether Lin Fan is planning something bad again. Thinking of this possibility, the top management of Xinghe couldn't help but mutter, why not just postpone the movie schedule to avoid Lin Fan?
Zhang Youling found it extremely ironic and ridiculous. What was ridiculous was that a company as prestigious as Xinghe Entertainment would be so afraid of Lin Fan. The irony was that these things were originally within her reach.
More than once, when Zhang Youling was alone, she couldn't help thinking, if she had followed Sister Xia and left, would everything Xia Yan had now belong to her? Not only did she think so, but other people in the company also laughed at her behind her back, saying that she was blind and had missed the opportunity to become famous.
Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world.
"Lingling, the director is calling you." The assistant interrupted Zhang Youling's thoughts.
Zhang Youling put away her chaotic thoughts, stood up, straightened her costume, and prepared to find the director, but she heard bursts of laughter coming from the crew next door.
I couldn't help but ask curiously, "What kind of drama is being filmed next door? It's been like this every day recently, and I can't stop laughing!"
Especially with so much laughter, can the shooting progress be guaranteed? Wouldn't the producer feel bad about the money he spent every day? Can the director hold back from losing his temper?
The assistant's eyes flickered, and he stammered, "Next door, it seems like they're filming a sitcom next door? I guess, I heard the script is pretty funny."
Zhang Youling was speechless: "There are still sitcoms now? Does anyone still watch them? The key is that they make people laugh every day. The professionalism of this is really questionable."
The assistant didn't dare to say anything, and Zhang Youling was not in the mood to meddle in other people's affairs. After saying a few words, she went to find the director to discuss the next shoot.
In the next-door crew, Lin Fan sat on a small stool, watching the shot that had just been shot. He couldn't help laughing, but he had to say, "This won't work. The heroine is laughing the whole time. This shot obviously can't be used. We have to reshoot it."
The heroine who was named is called Tian Li. She is a talented actress who graduated from a professional school. Unfortunately, she has been in the circle for many years, but has never become popular.
When Lin Fan was looking for the heroine for this comedy, Cheng Guohua recommended Tian Li to Lin Fan. Tian Li came for the interview with the mentality of giving it a try, but she didn't expect to get the heroine right away! This was simply a huge surprise for her!
Tian Li made a lot of preparations for this play and even consulted professional comedians. In order to fit the role, she learned to speak the authentic dialect within a month.
She doesn't seek to make a big splash, she just hopes to live up to Lin Fan's trust and play the first leading role in her life well.
Even after so much preparation, Tian Li still couldn't stop laughing when filming officially started. Fortunately, it wasn't just Tian Li who laughed, the entire crew laughed frequently, which made Tian Li feel a little relieved.
It's not that I don't have the professional ability, it's that the script is just too funny! However, Tian Li was still a little embarrassed when Lin Fan pointed it out directly: "I'm sorry, Director Lin, I will definitely control myself and try not to laugh. I'm sorry for causing trouble to everyone."
Apologies must be made and reshoots must be done. The actors take a short break, and the stage management restores the scene to its original model state and then starts reshooting.
After three takes, Lin Fan, the Tyrant of the Studio, was finally satisfied: "Passed! The next shots will be based on this feeling."
As for the actors' frequent laughter, Lin Fan didn't care too much, as long as it didn't affect the shooting progress. The blame for the laughter was mainly on the script, and the actors' responsibility was slightly smaller.
After all, if a comedy doesn't make the actors laugh, it won't make the audience laugh either.
However, what surprised Lin Fan was that Lai Siu-tung adapted very well. His serious comedy, coupled with his lovable baby face, made the comedy quite funny.
Lin Fan originally thought that Lai Siu-tung would have to go through several dramas before he could find his position. Now it seems that he already knows clearly what his future path will be.
As soon as this line was spoken, Li Xiaodong came up to Lin Fan and asked, "Brother Fan, how is my acting? Has my acting improved?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Lin Fan answered truthfully: "Not bad, more progress than I thought. Keep it up!"
Li Xiaodong was instantly happy: "Really? Brother Fan, you said that I have made great progress, so I must have made great progress!"
Lin Fan couldn't bear to see Li Xiaodong's bright appearance when he was given a little sunshine, and couldn't help but criticize him: "It's really good for a TV series, but for a movie, your acting skills are too exaggerated. You need to work harder."
Even though he was hit, Li Xiaodong was not sad: "Then I will slowly work hard. One day I will be able to reach your standards, Brother Fan, and become the leading actor of your movie! Not only will I become the leading actor, I will also become a member of the 10 billion club in the future!"
Lin Fan patted Li Xiaodong on the shoulder and said, "Young man, it's good to be confident, but blind confidence is a disease and must be treated!"
Of course I can only be the male lead in my movie, and what's so difficult about joining the 10 billion club?
He just casually made a movie like "A Chinese Ghost Story" and it achieved a box office of 4 billion yuan. This was only his first movie, and he achieved two-fifths of the 10 billion yuan box office in one go.
It was only a matter of time for Lin Fan to pick a few movies from his own movie library and achieve the 10 billion mark.
Moreover, "Liang Zhu" is about to be released. Lin Fan's expectations for the box office of this movie are not particularly high, but it is enough to push his total box office forward.
