The goal is to shoot a low-budget film and then compose a catchy song for it, striving for a win-win situation for both the film and the song.
However, Liu Zi needs to carefully consider the selection of film material. If she wants the film to be a box office success, it must meet the current aesthetic requirements.
Liu Zi immediately thought of "Lost in Thailand," a film that humorously depicts the lives of people at the bottom of society and the kindness of humanity, while also exploring the relationships and emotions between people.
The two characters in the film are vividly portrayed, especially the two characters played by Xu Zheng and Wang Qiang, who made the audience feel warm amidst laughter.
Liu Zi's only concern right now is whether Xu Zheng and Wang Qiang can carry the film.
Especially Xu Zheng, who is still young, is he capable of taking on the role in the drama?
What reassures Liu Zi is that neither of them is currently very valuable, and if the studio can sign them, their future development will definitely be promising.
Thinking of this, Liu Zi suddenly had an idea.
Based on her memory, she wrote down a series of names, most of which were actors with good acting skills who achieved success later in life.
Some of these people are still playing minor roles, while others have just graduated from film school; in short, they are all unknown figures.
What Liu Zi wants to do now is to sign them all before they become famous. She has plenty of scripts and can 'tailor-make' scripts for them.
She is currently lacking a good manager and a good agent.
She has a weak foundation right now, and Wang Jian is too young and still needs to be trained. It seems she has to find a way to poach him.
Liu Zi fell into deep thought.
The Beijing Military Region Special Forces Brigade is located in the suburbs northwest of the city, about a 2-hour drive away.
After receiving the permit, Liu Zi drove there, accompanied by an officer from the military region's logistics department.
It's inconvenient to get around there; if you don't drive, it's very difficult to get in and out.
Liu Zi was aware of this; before they came, they had thought it through and wanted to cause as little trouble as possible to the military.
The special forces team would be located on an unnamed hill, and personnel were already deployed at the foot of the hill.
Liu Zi felt that her journey up the mountain was like overcoming numerous obstacles and defeating many enemies.
Almost every checkpoint had to check her relevant documents and conduct a thorough inspection of her private car.
At first, Liu Zi shrugged, thinking that checking was necessary to avoid unnecessary trouble.
I just didn't expect that at each of the several checkpoints on the way up the mountain, I would have to do a check and repeat the same actions as before.
Liu Zi was puzzled. She had only driven a car; it shouldn't be this serious!
She had neither contraband nor listening devices in her car, so she didn't need to do that.
Even the military officer who brought him here was somewhat puzzled.
When Liu Zi saw the troubled expression on the other party's face after the negotiation, she realized that the special forces did not welcome her!
Liu Zi reached out and stopped the young soldier who wanted to open her trunk, saying to the officer, "I need an explanation. If you didn't want me to come, you could have told me in advance. There are so many special forces units across the country; I don't necessarily have to come here."
"Miss Liu, don't be angry. The inspection here is a bit strict. Their team is just worried about something going wrong." The officer quickly came over to put the situation calm.
"My political background check was personally approved by General Wang Wei. If you doubt me, you are doubting him." Liu Zi thought to herself that she was lucky she had come before the National Day ceremony, otherwise she wouldn't know where to reason with him!
"Officer Zhu, I won't make things difficult for you. If their military commander doesn't come out and give me an explanation today, then we can go back. All the promises I made to the Beijing Military Region are null and void."
Liu Zi was truly angry this time. She had cooperated with the inspection for three hours from the foot of the mountain to here, but she hadn't even seen the gate of the camp, let alone the officers of the special forces brigade.
She came here to learn and collect local customs; she doesn't owe them anything.
Liu Zi took her phone out of her pocket, glanced at it, and saw there was no signal.
"I'll only wait ten minutes. If no one comes by then, let's go down the mountain!"
Officer Zhu was getting anxious. The military region had assigned him to escort Miss Liu to the special forces unit, but he was being harassed as soon as he arrived on their territory. How was he going to explain this when he got back?
This matter was personally instructed by General Wang and supervised by the political commissar. What's wrong with the special forces? Do they think we're made of clay and can do whatever we want with them?
The sentries also noticed something was wrong. They all knew who Wang Wei was; he was their highest-ranking military officer in the Beijing area.
Unexpectedly, this Miss Liu was someone of great importance. Without Officer Zhu saying anything more, the sentry squad leader went into the pavilion to make a phone call.
The more Liu Zi thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She was going to stay here for a few more days, and if the other party continued to act this way, she had no hope of seeing anything.
In those few minutes, Liu Zi began to consider quitting.
It wasn't her fault. General Wang Wei can settle accounts with whomever he wants afterward.
Liu Zi chuckled, thinking that this might be part of someone's plan to discourage her.
Liu Zi didn't want to assume the worst about others, but she was really angry.
The car was searched inside and out three times, and all the suitcases and bags had to be taken out. It was opened three times in total.
Liu Zi is now both angry and embarrassed.
She couldn't swallow this insult any longer, so she decided not to wait foolishly any longer.
"Director Zhu, please do as you please. I'm going down the mountain first. Let's call it a day!" After saying that, Liu Zi opened the door, got into the car, started the engine, and prepared to turn around and go down the mountain.
Upon seeing this, Officer Zhu immediately ran over to try and stop her.
"Miss Liu, please don't be angry. I will definitely give you an explanation for this."
"I just want to leave now. Officer Zhu, please step aside. This has nothing to do with you." Liu Zi's face was ashen.
"Miss Liu, please wait a little longer, their leader will be here soon." After saying this, Officer Zhu did not forget to look up at the mountain.
Liu Zi chuckled. There were even more sentries here than in Zhonghai. She didn't believe no one had arranged them. Since they weren't welcome, she wouldn't bother making a fool of herself.
Just as the two sides were deadlocked, a military jeep sped along the mountain road.
The car drifted and came to a stop right in front of the crowd. The door opened, and a tall man in military uniform got out.
"Company Commander Qi, they are the people sent by the military region." At this moment, the sentry squad leader came over and whispered in the other's ear.
"Hey, what's going on here?" Company Commander Qi walked over with a roguish grin.
"Old Zhu, I didn't expect it to be you! It's almost noon, come have lunch with our brigade later, we've got a special treat today, stewed rabbit."
