The Birth of the Best Director

Chapter 184, "Training Guo Fan," was inspired by Lu Zhiyuan and Dilraba Dilmurat.

……

The special effects costs for the movie "Pacific Rim" accounted for more than 70% of the total production cost.

Lu Zhiyuan's original special effects budget was 5000 million US dollars!
Because he already has his own special effects team, the cost should be reduced by at least half.

However, after arriving at the China Film Digital Shooting Base, Schwarzschild, the technical head of the special effects company [Black Hole Vision], came directly to Lu Zhiyuan and explained the situation.

“Boss, if we do it on our own, we can only produce high-precision renderings of a few mechs, but the rendering of the apostle monsters is always a little lacking.”

"In order not to delay your plans, I contacted Weta Digital, the company that did the special effects for The Lord of the Rings trilogy and Avatar."

"Your idol... no, the third director on your kill list, Peter Jackson, is the founder of this company."

Almost all great directors own their own special effects company.

George Lucas, who directed the Star Wars series, had his industrial magic.

Michael Bay, who directed "Transformers," has his own Digital Domain.

Christopher Nolan has also become deeply involved with DNEG, a top visual effects company.

There is no way around it.

Film is, after all, a visual art.

Directors who have control over these visual effects companies are able to compete with large film studios in the industry and even gain control of core competitiveness during technological iterations.

Directors who can only tell stories? There are tons of them all over the world.

Even any writer could transition into a director.

But what about those writers and directors who want to do special effects?

Sorry.

This is a technical job, and also a capital-intensive industry.

The technical barriers involved are many levels higher than writing a compelling story.

Lu Zhiyuan owns shares in many companies, but he doesn't participate in their management at all, nor does he care how these companies develop.

Anyway, he will never lack money in his life.

It's just a matter of quantity.

He is the only boss at the special effects company, [Black Hole Event]!

Because it concerns the core visual presentation of his film!
After honing their skills with "Real Steel," Hole Vision's special effects capabilities are now among the best in Asia.

Especially in the area of ​​robot special effects.

However, in terms of monster effects, if it's just a VR game-like game with the number of polygons controlled at the million level, it's barely acceptable.

However, as a heavy-industry film, the Apostle monsters are the core visual focus of the entire Pacific Rim movie.

Therefore, a polygon effect on the order of millions is far from sufficient.

The number of polygons in a single monster must be at least in the tens of millions!
Even the distribution of scales on the monster's body must conform to the biological morphological structure.

Only in this way can we achieve the sense of realism that Lu Zhiyuan needs.

After all, Pacific Rim is a monster movie, so the majority of the budget should naturally be spent on the monsters!

"Schwarzschild, just tell me directly, how much money do you need?"

If the money runs out, Lu Zhiyuan will have to increase the budget.

Although he had already prepared a budget of seventy to eighty million US dollars for this film.

But as these kinds of heavy-industry special effects movies are made, they eventually find that the money runs out.

This was inevitable.

Fortunately, his first two films had already earned the company enough money.

Even if this movie doesn't make money, the company will continue to make it even at a loss in order to sell more merchandise.

Don't be afraid!
"Not much, the rendering of a single monster costs about 500 million US dollars."

Schwarzschild said it casually.

Before Lu Zhiyuan could say anything, he started calculating rapidly in his mind.

Guo Fan, who was standing next to him, could also understand English. When he heard this number, he couldn't help but want to curse.

A monster that cost $500 million.

Isn’t that much?

Most importantly, this $500 million is only for the monster's rendering; the later additions include combat effects, lighting effects, and changes in the physical characteristics of the arena...

These will all cost extra money.

If things continue like this, Weta Digital could directly take away at least 30 to 40 million US dollars of their budget.

At that moment, Guo Fan deeply realized what it meant to have a wealth of knowledge in books and how knowledge can change one's destiny.

He regrets it now.

I shouldn't have studied film and television management.

After finishing the comics, he should learn special effects.

He remembered that there was a great director in Hollywood named David Fincher who joined Industrial Magic at the age of 18 and worked as a visual effects artist for Star Wars.

He made a lot of money after working for 5 years.

He switched jobs at 23 to make his own documentaries, started a film company with his colleagues at 25, and made Alien 3 at 30.

Judging from the resume, it looks incredibly impressive.

He was only slightly inferior to his boss, Lu Zhiyuan.

Of course, the reason David Fincher wasted several years was because he missed a crucial step.

Unlike Lu Zhiyuan, he didn't find a rich female girlfriend.

Otherwise, his life story would have been even more legendary.

"Five million US dollars, no problem."

"But with so much money being poured in, the monsters should be realistic enough, right? The kind that fits the logic of cosmic biological evolution that I need?"

"Especially the skeletal structure, muscle group distribution, energy metabolism... these aspects should all conform to biological logic, right?"

Lu Zhiyuan asked several key questions.

This is a monster movie, so the monsters have to be incredibly realistic!

Just like in the universe, super monsters with such terrifying size, such great destructive power, and such various means may actually evolve.

Why is Godzilla the most famous monster in the entire history of movies?

This is because both its birth environment and its growth process are full of real dramatic conflicts.

Lu Zhiyuan hopes that his mecha movie series will become a globally recognized visual trademark for his film company, just like Godzilla did for Toho.

From now on, when people think of mecha movies, besides Transformers, this series will be the one that comes to mind.

"Boss, you can rest assured about that."

"Although Weta Digital charges a high price, they are absolutely world-class in this field."

"The monster's effects are so realistic that not only does every muscle, bone, and scale have detailed biological features, but even the mucus, wounds, and bioluminescent organs mimic some real deep-sea creatures."

"We guarantee to give the audience a feeling that is both unfamiliar and familiar."

"In addition, Weta Digital has created a fluid simulation and particle system that can create interactions between monsters and cities, mechs and oceans. For example, buildings collapsing, water splashing... Although our company can also do these things, due to the software engine, it still lacks a certain feel."

【Black Hole Horizon】This company was only established not long ago, and Schwarzschild didn't care about exposing his own shortcomings.

If it works, it works.

If it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work.

After all, you can't lie or deceive people when it comes to special effects.

Lu Zhiyuan could spot the problem at a glance.

The reason why "Real Steel" was able to be filmed with such a high degree of realism is...

That's because the small mechs in the movie were all made by Lu Zhiyuan at his own expense.

Realistic things naturally have much lower requirements for special effects rendering.

Moreover, most of the movie's plot takes place within a VR game.

To differentiate it from the real world, VR game worlds have an added filter, giving them a digital feel.

The requirements for combat realism are not that high.

This saves visual effects companies a lot of effort.

for example.

In the VR game world, a mech like the "Qin Palace Guard" only needs a million polygonal structures to make the audience feel the reality.

However, in the real world, the number of polygons needs to reach at least tens of millions for the audience to feel the awe of the mechs and monsters.

Especially when combined with complex environments, such as cities and seawater.

Interactions with the environment, changes in physical characteristics... these factors exponentially increase the difficulty of rendering special effects.

This is on a completely different level of difficulty compared to the relatively simple game environment in "Real Steel".

……

Schwarzschild is gone.

After submitting the bill to Lu Zhiyuan, he received an additional $2000 million in special effects funding.

Lu Zhiyuan's own company still has a lot of money lying around in its accounts.

He himself had almost no material desires, and when he saw that Schwarzschild's words made sense, he simply waved his hand and approved the special effects funding.

From this moment on, the production cost of the movie "Pacific Rim" has reached 1 million US dollars.

Having money is awesome!
Pursuing art also costs money!
"Brother Yuan, making science fiction movies is really difficult."

After Schwarzschild left, Guo Fan, standing beside Lu Zhiyuan, couldn't help but sigh, "If I were to direct this movie myself, I reckon it would take at least two years!"

"Then, I had to beg and plead with everyone I knew to get funding."

"I have to ask the special effects company to do some of the special effects for me on credit."

Filming for two years, or even less.

Because Lu Zhiyuan filmed so quickly, he finished filming almost all the real-life scenes in less than two months.

Moreover, the visuals are all world-class.

If it were any other director, it would take at least six months to produce the same level of visual quality.

If it were someone like Wong Kar-wai, it might not even last two years.

To give Guo Fan a better feel for the real-life footage from "Pacific Rim," Xin Yukun has already edited some clips for him to enjoy.

After reading it, Guo Fan only had one thing to say.

Who made this? The more I look at it, the more it resembles a disaster movie like "2012".

It's exactly the same style as Roland Emmerich's.

Of course, such suspicion is completely unfounded. Everyone knows that Lu Zhiyuan personally led his team to film it.

Realizing this, Guo Fan couldn't help but sigh, "With talent, you can do whatever you want."

Lu Zhiyuan perfectly imitated Quentin Tarantino's violent ritualistic style.

It's as if it comes naturally to him.

This time, in order to film "Pacific Rim," he once again began to deeply imitate Roland Emmerich's aesthetics of destruction.

That's unbelievably impressive.

Of course, the most impressive thing is the return on investment of Lu Zhiyuan's movies!

A commercial film director's greatest ability is to make money for the company!

Otherwise, would Lu Zhiyuan be able to spend money so lavishly?
Spending $2000 million to build mechs!
They spent tens of millions of dollars on the special effects for the monsters!
……

"Xiao Guo, your idea is good."

"The composition is quite precise. However, during the shooting process, you piled up too many visual symbols, which gave the audience a feeling of information overload."

"In that case, it might be a bit tiring for teenage viewers to watch."

"My suggestion is to remove half of the visual symbols."

In Lu Zhiyuan's original vision, the Battle of Tokyo required using monsters to crush Shintoism, essentially a unique way of massacring Japanese culture.

Before he left, he had a conversation with Guo Fan.

Originally, Lu Zhiyuan hoped that Guo Fan could delete some visual symbols for him to avoid information overload.

After all, as an art enthusiast with a severe case of "artistic addiction," he genuinely didn't want to delete those things.

Then let others do the dirty work.

Just like when editing, every time he edits, the footage he produces is far more than 200 minutes long.

In the end, to make the movie more concise, Kun Ge (Brother Kun) went all out and cut it to 120 minutes.

It's the same this time.

Who knew that Guo Fan was even more ruthless than him, wanting to show the audience all the elements and symbols that would destroy Japan.

"Brother Yuan, which half should we delete?"

Guo Fan also knew that the footage he filmed of the monster trampling Tokyo was a bit too much.

They practically ravaged Tokyo from start to finish.

He had a blast filming these scenes, and he wished he could wear the suit and play the monster himself, to experience what it felt like to be a celestial army landing in Tokyo.

"Delete the half that's likely to cause controversy."

The movie will ultimately have to make money in Japan.

It's fine to enjoy yourself at home, but wanting to make money off others while also trying to annoy them is a bit unreasonable.

Lu Zhiyuan ultimately decided to delete the landmark because its political significance was too obvious.

Leave behind some business symbols.

For example, Shibuya Crossing, Tokyo Skytree.

These are all harmless.

"Hmm...deleting it isn't really necessary, just avoid showing close-ups. After the battle is over, that area will be practically wiped clean."

Seeing Guo Fan frowning, seemingly considering how to delete it, Lu Zhiyuan thought for a moment and gave a final solution.

I won't delete it.

They didn't even give us close-ups.

The data is cleared by default after the battle ends.

That makes sense, doesn't it?

After all, that area is the city center. After the monsters landed, they fought a fierce battle with the Jaeger Hunters, causing chaos and destruction. What's so strange about that they destroyed the city center?

"Brother Yuan, I understand."

Guo Fan could clearly sense that Lu Zhiyuan was training himself.

Having realized this, he couldn't help but ask again, "Brother Yuan, what are your requirements regarding color and lighting?"

Lu Zhiyuan is obsessed with natural light.

However, almost all of these special effects scenes were filmed indoors.

It's impossible to find the kind of natural light that Lu Zhiyuan needs.

"Let's use cool colors."

"The high-contrast lighting design enhances the oppressive feeling after the monsters land."

Lu Zhiyuan first determined the visual style.

After a moment of contemplation, he seemed to be asking Guo Fan, or perhaps talking to himself: "Should we design a gloomy, rainy environment when the monster lands in Tokyo?"

"In this way, the monster's image in the movie will have an unsaturated, dim effect, making the whole world seem shrouded in shadow, creating an extremely oppressive atmosphere?"

Before Guo Fan could answer, Lu Zhiyuan thought for a moment and then changed his mind: "Forget it, let's stick to the original plan."

"The battle in the rain and the dim environment may give the audience a sense of psychological shadow, but it will greatly reduce the visual shock of the battle between mechs and monsters."

"Especially when it's made in 3D, the brightness is reduced by about 40% compared to 2D. If the lighting is too dim during a battle, it will greatly diminish the effectiveness of all my special effects!"

"Of course, there will be less loss of brightness in IMAX 3D. But not all viewers can afford to buy IMAX 3D tickets to see it."

"We need to consider the visual experience of the vast majority of viewers."

Everything has to give way to visual effects!
Moreover, this is only the first major battle, and there is no need to give the audience any psychological hints.

Because, in this movie, there is only one truly famous painting.

Don't be top-heavy!

……

Next, Lu Zhiyuan checked the footage that Guo Fan had shot during this period.

After looking at it for a while, he frowned slightly and pointed out a few typical flaws.

"The immersive atmosphere is a little lacking."

"The red and blue street lighting design in Japan, while giving it a futuristic feel, has overly high color saturation. You should have someone fix the color tones."

"In addition, there are some issues with the dynamic long shots."

"While your one-shot filming was good, the camera moved too fast, and the complex changes in light and shadow made the viewer feel dizzy. Pay attention to this and don't make the same mistake again."

"This model won't work. Who made it?"

"When the monster stomps on it, the feel is off, like a game CG, full of plastic. It has no realism at all. Make them redo it for me. Don't think you can cut corners just because I wasn't there."

Overall, the footage shot by Guo Fan is decent, around a 70 out of 100. But for Lu Zhiyuan, it wouldn't be included in his film unless it was at least a 90.

Therefore, only about 20% of the footage shot by Guo Fan was acceptable to Lu Zhiyuan.

"Xiao Guo, don't be discouraged."

"It was my first time making a science fiction film, so I inevitably wanted too much, which led to a decrease in the sense of realism."

"Don't always think about shooting grand scenes, although you are quite talented in this area. However, in film, you need to focus on the details to make the audience feel the authenticity. With authenticity, everything else becomes convincing."

Lu Zhiyuan directed post-apocalyptic punk films like "Real Steel" and "Upgrade".

However, with Pacific Rim, he did not continue down the original path. Instead, he began to learn from the Soviet heavy industry style, using the feeling of mechanical roar to shock the audience's hearts through pure audiovisual effects.

But as the saying goes, if the details are not accurate, all ambitions will become a joke.

……

"Brother Yuan, I will try my best."

Despite being criticized for many shortcomings and weaknesses by Lu Zhiyuan, Guo Fan was full of motivation.

In any case, at least 20% of the material was approved by Lu Zhiyuan.

This is enough to show that he is quite talented.

What is 20% of Lu Zhiyuan's?
Based on the box office performance of the movie "Real Steel," 20% of that would be $2 million.

It's already great.

Realizing this, Guo Fan was incredibly motivated. Over the next few days, he worked tirelessly to correct his shortcomings and make continuous progress.

At Lu Zhiyuan's request, he reshot those materials.

Guo Fan is very enthusiastic about his work, which makes Lu Zhiyuan very happy.

Because all he had to do was come over every day to check, and then, like the instructor, point out the problems with Guo Fan's filming and assign him specific tasks.

After several days of targeted training, Guo Fan's footage was already up to Lu Zhiyuan's standard of 90 points.

Although, it still feels a little off.

However, for some less important scenes, the footage Guo Fan shot was sufficient.

This saved Lu Zhiyuan a great deal of effort.

"Having an assistant to help out is quite nice."

Guo Fan didn't know how strong his talent was, but Lu Zhiyuan could probably sense it; it was at least at the A-level.

Especially when shooting grand scenes, Guo Fan is able to capture a sense of awe and epic scale.

This is an extremely rare talent.

However, it seems that Guo Fan is learning to use his own composition and visual symbolism... which is really unnecessary.

Lu Zhiyuan himself doesn't like this kind of symbolic expression.

Because 99% of the audience doesn't understand it; he's just entertaining himself, with at most 1% of artsy young people joining in.

A celebration for a niche audience.

However, as an art student, he couldn't help himself when making the film.

It's one of my minor flaws, I suppose.

Guo Fan doesn't need to learn even this.

However, this is also a good thing for Lu Zhiyuan, as it's like finding a high-quality gunman who actually shoots according to his style.

……

The miniature city scenes filmed at the China Film Digital Base are not particularly important to the overall film.

Lu Zhiyuan doesn't need to worry about too much; he can leave it to Guo Fan to handle.

Then, we can merge the images.

The real focus of the entire movie is always on the mechs and monsters.

For the next period of time, Lu Zhiyuan practically lived at the company called "Black Hole Vision".

He doesn't even go home anymore.

Upon seeing this situation, Miss Jing Tian immediately booked a hotel suite across from the company, insisting that Lu Zhiyuan return to the hotel to sleep no matter how late he worked.

What kind of person sleeps in the office every day?
Firstly, it's bad for your health.

Secondly, if other employees in the company saw this, they would think that Lu Zhiyuan had a conflict with them, was not going home, and was deliberately coming to the company to hide.

It's laughable.

……

Around 10pm.

Schwarzschild stretched, took his tech team, and prepared to leave work and then go to a nightclub to have some fun.

For them, working 996 has long been a daily routine.

But today is Saturday, and we'll be off tomorrow.

After a period of hard work, they finally overcame a technical problem and decided to have a good time this weekend.

With the VIP card provided by Brother Kun, they can choose any nightclub in Yanjing City.

This is probably the best benefit this company offers.

After all, most programmers are secretly passionate, posting risqué pictures all the time online, but when it comes to actually doing something in real life, they are hesitant, timid, and dare not take the initiative.

There is only one company, Lu Zhiyuan.

It seems that Lu Zhiyuan, the boss, is henpecked.

However, Brother Kun is a very particular person. Not only did he have a great time going out, but he also took everyone out to have fun with him.

He even wrote a detailed guide to the entire city of Yanjing and posted it on the company's intranet.

For those taciturn and reserved programmers, Brother Kun is practically a pioneering saint, worthy of worshipping with incense sticks morning and night.

"Boss, we have a team-building activity, so I'm sorry to take you. You should go home first. Otherwise, Miss Jing will probably call me soon."

Schwarzschild was preparing to take his men out for some fun.

But before turning off the lights, he glanced at the lights in a room at the hotel across from the company.

It's shiny and bright.

There was even a beautiful young lady standing in front of the glass window with her arms crossed, as if she were spying on their lives.

Really convinced.

Schwarzschild had a feeling that he was acting in "The Truman Show".

Of course, he's not the main character.

He was an actor who played the movie-making game with the main character.

The producer and director is none other than Miss Jing Tian, ​​who is sitting across from us.

"I understand. See you next week."

Lu Zhiyuan quickly understood what Schwarz was implying, covered his forehead, and helplessly went home after get off work.

No, we should go back to the hotel across the street.

……

Back to the hotel.

Lu Zhiyuan stood in the spot where Miss Jing Tian had just been standing.

This hotel is just across the street from the company behind "Black Hole Vision".

During the day, it's not a big deal.

At night, from this vantage point, one can clearly see what is happening inside the [Black Hole Horizon] office.

Don't ask Lu Zhiyuan how he knew.

Because the lights are still on upstairs at the [Black Hole Horizon] company.

Inside the office, the chubby boss was flirting with his secretary; from this vantage point, it looked like a close-up.

He could even read the message: the secretary beckoned to the boss with her finger, as if to say, "Come to my house tonight."

Impressed!

How can you be so clear about it?

No wonder Jing Tian was watching it with such interest!

"Ayuan, thank you for your hard work."

Back at the hotel, Miss Jingtian immediately served a nutritious soup.

Lu Zhiyuan withdrew his gaze and drew the curtains. Instead of drinking the nutritious soup, he first put his arm around Miss Jing Tian.

A helpless expression appeared on his face: "Tian Tian, ​​didn't you tell me that even if I had a mistress, I wouldn't be allowed to break up with you? Now, I'm just working overtime at the company, and I haven't gone out to find a mistress. Are you going to keep an eye on me from across the building?"

"When was I watching you?"

Men don't like women staring at them.

At that moment, Miss Jing Tian immediately denied it.

She chuckled and said, "I'm just a bit clingy when I'm in a relationship. I don't want to be apart from you for even a moment. Don't you like that?"

"I quite like this."

Could Lu Zhiyuan really say that?

It was an honor for him that Miss Jing Tian liked to stick to him.

He couldn't be ungrateful.

"By the way, A-Yuan, what has Reba been up to lately?"

Miss Jing Tian's hint to Lu Zhiyuan was that the so-called mistress was Reba.

However, that brat Reba ignored my good intentions and didn't attack when she should have, instead hiding somewhere.

What a waste of opportunity.

If Dilraba doesn't make a move soon, Gao Yuanyuan will be back.

Tea Sister is truly beautiful, speaks so gently, and truly understands men's hearts... For a straight man like Lu Zhiyuan, the most irresistible woman is Tea Sister.

On the contrary, Lu Zhiyuan would most likely treat Dilraba, who appears cold and aloof on the surface but is actually neurotic, as a younger sister.

Dilraba wants to be a mistress, but Lu Zhiyuan might not even have that intention.

This game is going to be interesting!
“In Reba’s hometown, there is a revolutionary TV series called ‘Anarhan’. Some time ago, her father sent her an invitation.”

“Dilraba specifically asked me about it, and I support her going back to film this TV series.”

In this era, Dilraba, as the top female star of the Uyghur ethnic group, and even the top female star in China, doesn't actually need to go back to film any revolutionary TV dramas.

But this TV series is of extraordinary significance.

This is a great boost to Dilraba's personal image.

Moreover, Dilraba's hometown had considered inviting her for a long time beforehand.

First of all, Dilraba's image is very suitable.

She is now the pride of the Uyghur people.

Secondly, if Dilraba Dilmurat can star in this TV series, it will definitely increase the series' popularity significantly.

Whether it's Dilraba's hometown, CCTV (the production company of this drama), or the publicity department of Dilraba's hometown, they will all significantly allocate resources to Dilraba in the future.

From a certain perspective, after filming this drama, Dilraba Dilmurat undoubtedly became the first historical superstar of the Uyghur ethnic group.

"So that's it."

As a young lady from a prominent family, Jing Tian was very aware of the hidden resources involved.

She understands Dilraba's choice.

"By the way, what about Dilraba's friend, Gulnazar? I haven't seen her in a long time. Did she go back to her hometown too?"

Compared to Dilraba, Miss Jing Tian still feels that Gulnazar, whom Kun Ge brought back from a modeling agency, is more threatening.

This kind of adorable clumsiness is even more irresistible to a straight man like Lu Zhiyuan.

On the contrary, the intelligent and strong Reba is less likely to arouse men's affection.

"Kun Ge (Kun Ge) negotiated with Tangren Media, and arranged for Nazha to join their production team to film 'Xuan-Yuan Sword: Scar of Sky'."

Speaking of this, Lu Zhiyuan also admires Xin Yukun quite a bit.

That's really impressive.

In this timeline, Gulnazar did not sign with Tangren Media, yet she still filmed "Xuan-Yuan Sword".

"How can Brother Kun negotiate? With Brother Kun's current status in the underworld, he can just make a call to this small fry."

Miss Jing Tian was speechless; Lu Zhiyuan really didn't care about anything.

A few days ago, Brother Kun took Liu Shishi directly to Boss Cai and asked him one question: Does Liu Shishi still want to film Lu Zhiyuan's movie?
Resource exchange, do you understand?

And just like that, Kun Ge stuffed Nazha inside.

For the Tang people, this resource exchange was an absolute windfall.

How can a supporting female character in "Xuan-Yuan Sword" be compared to an important supporting character in Lu Zhiyuan's Hollywood blockbuster?
Any fool knows how to choose.

"You really don't care about Nazha at all. Isn't she a signed artist with Dilraba Studio? If you think about it carefully, she's practically one of your artists."

"You, as the company's CEO, are somewhat negligent in your duties."

Although she was complaining about Lu Zhiyuan, Miss Jing Tian was in a very good mood.

He didn't even care about a beautiful but silly girl like Gulnazar.

It really makes me feel safe.

"Yes. I'm not suited for business. I'm not very interested in things that require complex interpersonal relationships."

Lu Zhiyuan nodded in agreement.

I am not a qualified businessman.

The main reason is that he doesn't have the extra energy to figure out what others are thinking.

Firstly, there's no need.

Secondly, it's not worth it.

Now, 99% of people need to please him and depend on his mood.

He only needs to put in the effort to study and understand the people he cares about.

"Oh right, tomorrow's the weekend, the company's closed. I'm planning to go check on Xiao Su, I wonder how her filming of 'How Long Will I Love U' is going?"

Su Lun's first film after leaving the company was "How Long Will I Love U".

She finished writing the script ahead of schedule.

It’s also interesting to say.

The inspiration for this script actually came from Lu Zhiyuan.

Back then, when Lu Zhiyuan was photographing the golden sunrise on Muztagh Ata, he suffered from severe altitude sickness and had to stay in Kashgar for a week.

Dilraba, an Oscar-nominated Best Actress, transformed into a gentle nurse, taking care of him for a whole week.

In a sense, these two people, with their status and wealth, cohabited warmly in the small city of Kashgar.

However, it's highly likely that these two won't be able to be together.

Seeing this scene, Su Lun felt extremely sad. That very night, he was inspired and wrote a romantic story about two people who were destined not to be together, but who accidentally ended up living together due to some kind of time and space intersection.

"Haha, the inspiration for Xiao Su's movie actually came from you?"

"She even found an actor to play your role, someone who portrays a loser? What's that loser's name? Guo Jingfei?"

Although Guo Jingfei isn't very famous, he has already acted in several TV series.

Although Miss Jing Tian didn't recognize him, she did have some impression of him.

"No way... In what way do you and Guo Jingfei resemble each other?"

"He looks like the kind of miserable middle-aged office worker who gets scolded by his wife every day as a good-for-nothing and a frustrated loser."

"Xiao Su is really funny!"

"I never expected her to be such an interesting person."

"I can't wait to see this movie."

Miss Jing Tian listened to Lu Zhiyuan's description of some of the ideas and synopsis of the movie "How Long Will I Love U".

She couldn't help but burst into laughter, finding it incredibly funny.

"I'm free tomorrow, I'll go with you."

Does Lu Zhiyuan's investment in a film equate to her indirect investment?
Su Lun is Lu Zhiyuan's subordinate. Does that mean he's not her subordinate?

When her younger brother is making a movie, as his sister-in-law, she definitely has to go and support him.

In particular, the female lead of this movie is Yang Mi, the senior student that Lu Zhiyuan once had a crush on.

She couldn't let Lu Zhiyuan and Yang Mi develop any romantic feelings for each other.

Although she verbally agreed that Lu Zhiyuan could have a mistress, this mistress had to be someone she approved of... This mistress could only be Dilraba.

Neither can anyone else.

Dilraba earned her family hundreds of millions of dollars. Can anyone else do that?

As a leader, rewards and punishments must be clearly defined!

Dilraba deserves credit, so I'll reward her by making her my little sister!

However, Dilraba works very hard to earn money, so she should probably take on a few female followers. I heard that Dilraba wants to recruit Yang Mi to her company and make her work like a slave for her?
This can be!
I'll take care of this for you!
