“Yes, yes. Uncle An has been coming to our production team frequently these past few days. He had just arrived and should be at Director Chen’s place at the moment. Director Li, this way please!”
Jiang Tao walked in front of him and led the way. He also introduced some knowledge about this small movie city.
After walking for less than 15 minutes, Li Muyao and the others entered a relatively tightly sealed Green Screen City. They went through two doors and checked the information of the relevant staff.
Green Screen City, as the name implied, was a filming location built with green cloth.
These green cloth backgrounds had to be used in the later stages of the game to cooperate with the computer or to give the actors the surrounding environment. They had to add some things that should have been in the script, such as the most commonly mentioned ‘walking coyote, “immortal corpse,’ and ‘corpse suffocation,’ which couldn’t be created with tools. That was why they added some sci-fi elements.
Sci-fi, suspense, horror, grave robbing, inspirational…lt also had a strong sense of age.
With so many novel elements combined, only someone with a strong writing style like Uncle An could write it and attract the likes of countless readers.
“The four of you, please sit here for a while. I’ll call Director Chen, Uncle An, and the producer over. “Jiang Tao asked Assistant Wu to entertain Li Muyao and the others. They were investors, so they had to be treated well.
However, if Green Screen City was not the filming area, there would only be a few chairs and a table. There was not even any tea.
However, with Jiang Chao’s all-rounded special assistant around, he quickly took out the cut fruits from his bag and laid them out one by one. He took out the milk that his wife liked to drink, the jasmine tea that Li Muyao liked to drink, and the mineral water that he and Chu Ranran drank.
He sat down leisurely and cast his gaze at a green screen not too far away. He saw two male leads acting desperately in the air. As if they had suddenly seen something, their eyes were filled with fear and their limbs began to tremble. One of them even pulled his friend beside him.
The man who had been pulled by his good friend felt as if he had been saved from the abyss. After he relaxed, he immediately started crying again. As he cried to the air, he wanted to find treasures and gold.
“I didn’t expect those actors to have such good acting skills. They can act so naturally without any real objects. “Li Muyao narrowed her eyes and said,”
“Sister Yao, if you want to invest money, this movie is indeed a good choice.
The two male actors were both capable actors, but they were not handsome and had a straightforward temper. They were not particularly liked by investors and directors in the film industry.
After all, 70% to 80% of people in the entertainment industry would encounter some unspoken rules.
Especially in recent years, regardless of whether it was a movie or a TV series, the first choice was to find actors who were good -looking. Those who were ugly would get fewer resources, and they would not get the main script at all. They would all be supporting roles or cameo scripts.
However, their acting skills were indeed among the top in the film industry. Also, I’ve heard my dad mention that Grave Robber is a very popular novel. It’s an IP adaptation.
It was one of the most talked about movies this year and one of the most anticipated movies next year. They just didn’t expect that their capital chain would be broken.”
After all, Chu Ranran was Chu Jixing’s daughter. She had been influenced by the big and small things in the entertainment industry since she was young.
Even It sne didn’t Know mucn, sne didn’t Know 100% or tne people m tne entertainment industry. As long as they had been in one or two movies and TV series, Chu Ranran could recognize them by name.
For example, the two capable actors who were acting at the moment were not only ugly but also very unique. Therefore, it was normal for Chu Ranran to remember their names and some things that had happened in the past.
“It’s indeed a good investment. Grave Robber had not only been made into a movie, but the game company had also bought the rights to the game. If nothing went wrong, it should be released at the same time as the movie next year to ride on the wave of popularity.”
Jiang Chao knew a little about the gaming industry.
There were indeed many games nowadays that were adapted from anime or novels. Although they weren’t very popular on the Internet, at least they were faster than original games. Moreover, a popular novel like Grave Robber would have a huge following. Whether it was a game or a movie, as long as it was released and listed, it would naturally win over the fans first.
People like Li Muyao!
“Alright, since you guys said that it’s not bad, then let’s talk about it seriously later. If there’s no problem, sign the contract as soon as possible. The movie could not be delayed.”
Grave Robbing was a novel that her two younger brothers borrowed from Little Cangzhu. Li Muyao liked it after flipping through a page. Later, she saw the same novel on the bookshelf in Huo Jiling’s office. Only then did she know how popular Grave Robbing was.
After liking it, Li Muyao bought a few sets and gave one to each of her two younger brothers.
In her previous life, Li Muyao hadn’t paid much attention to movies and games. After all, at this time in her previous life, Li Muyao was still busy being an apprentice and working part- time as a hair washing girl to earn extra money. Every day, her mind was filled with how to buy real skills from the beautician faster. How to get customers who came to wash their hair to apply for a card?
The four of them chatted for a while before Assistant Wu came in with a bag of food. When she saw the plates of cut fruits on the table, she was stunned.
What kind of bosses are here today?
Not only did he bring his own water, but he also brought so many fruit plates?
Only then did Assistant Wu remember that the man beside the three beauties had been carrying a big bag in his hand since he got out of the car. Did he have to bring so much food to invest?
How particular!
Li Muyao and the others didn’t know that Assistant Wu had misunderstood them.
“That…Boss Li, you guys eat some snacks and drink some water first. I’ll go urge Director Chen and the others.”Assistant Wu put down her things and ran to the filming location. Chen Baichuan shouted at the front,””Cut! Jiang Tao, come over and help me prepare for the next scene. Uncle An and I will go over to the investor’s side to take a look.
Xiao Wu, come over and tell me about the investors.”
Chen Baichuan didn’t want to delay any further. He wanted to go over to negotiate immediately after Jiang Tao picked up the investors. However, Huang Bo and Chen Yiming were filming one of the climax scenes in the movie, so he couldn’t stop.
Chen Baichuan only cut after the filming was perfect.
Uncle An was a fat man in his thirties. He wore black-rimmed glasses and looked like a cultured man.
When he heard Chen Baichuan ask Assistant Wu, he asked,””ls it the investor that Director Liu introduced? Already arrived? Director Chen, your attitude is not good. We should be more enthusiastic towards our sponsor! If you’re not free, you should have asked me to go over and entertain you first..”
