Shooting plan

Chen Mo gritted his teeth and slammed the documents in his hand onto the desk.

After being handled this way, Nanhe Coffee turned a loss into a profit directly.

The speed of its development would definitely skyrocket, which undoubtedly disrupted his plans.

Song Xia, Su Dan, it seems the punishment for these two is not enough!

Not long after taking in the impoverished elderly, they are now causing trouble for me again; they really are becoming more and more restless!

Thinking this to himself, he took out his small notebook again, found the pages for Song Xia and Su Dan, and drew an 'X' on them once more.

After doing these things, he thought for a moment and then called Mei Yun at East City Apartments directly.

Hmm! I heard it has already been renamed to Corner Home.

But that is not important; he wants to discuss the matter of that unfinished building they talked about last time with the other party.

Now, because of [demon subduing record], his personal assets are growing rapidly. With so much System Funds, he can now think of a way to quickly consume this amount of System Funds.

That would only be taking over that unfinished building.

As long as he takes over that unfinished building, tears it down, rebuilds it, and adds the construction and renovation costs, it should be almost enough to exhaust the box office revenue of [demon subduing record].

Chen Mo sighed helplessly.

He had originally thought that this plan for the unfinished building would not be usable for some time, as taking over that unfinished building would require at least hundreds of millions in funds.

And all of his current income, his biggest source of revenue, is still Cangxue Games.

Given the current monthly income of Cangxue Games, to take over that unfinished building, he would need to accumulate at least a few months of funds.

Therefore, after discovering that unfinished building, he had always treated it as a backup plan.

But he never expected that a single [demon subduing record] would cause his System Funds to skyrocket.

The backup plan he had originally envisioned now had to be brought out ahead of schedule.

After the call connected, he briefly explained the situation.

Mei Yun indicated he would arrive at the company in half an hour. They would discuss the details when they met.

Mingri Group, Lanpian Film and Television, Manager's office.

Luo Xiao, Wang Bin, and the screenwriter Hu Bian were sitting around the office desk.

"According to the current script, the selection of actors is almost complete. For the remaining minor roles, we can hire some extras for the crew."

Luo Xiao looked at the cast list on the script, his brow relaxing. The preparation work for the second movie was finally almost ready.

"Then let's get ready; we should be able to set off soon."

Wang Bin unconsciously touched his hair, which had been cut short, a glimmer of excitement flashing in his eyes.

"There are no problems with the film actors, but other areas still need some attention."

"First is the costumes and props. Although there is editing and special effects, the props cannot be too fake. Otherwise, no matter how good the special effects are, if paired with those trashy props, we won't be able to produce a good science fiction movie."

"Second is the special effects. Because this is a science fiction movie, there are many requirements regarding special effects. First of all, funding is absolutely essential. Also, there are some plots and sci-fi scenes in this script that can be handled completely during the filming process."

"If we wait until filming is finished to handle these things all at once, I'm afraid it will waste a lot of time."

Screenwriter Hu Bian looked at the script and filming plan on the desk, pondered for a moment, and spoke slowly.

He was originally just a science fiction novelist, and he didn't know much about these things.

However, during his time since joining the company, he suddenly realized that it was no different from his usual state of not working.

The script on the Lanpian Film and Television side had already been revised, so there was simply no need for him to do anything else here.

Then there was the Cangxue Games side, the world background for [freedom war].

This was actually quite simple, since the characters and skills were already laid out there; he only needed to set up a framework for the world view.

Then, he just had to assign the already-designed characters to factions and create some background stories for the different factions. Basically, it was already completed.

Moreover, the number of characters designed for [freedom war] currently wasn't very large, and there was no requirement for him to write them out quickly.

So he wasn't in a rush, constantly enriching the world view every day to make it more perfect.

Therefore, after joining the company, he found that he hadn't become busy because of joining the company; sometimes he even had no work to do.

So much so that he felt a bit embarrassed staying here.

So he took the initiative to find some things to do, such as finding Cangxue Games employees to learn about special effects.

He also went to buy some books about film shooting himself.

After all, he had joined a film company; if he really wanted to stay here for a long time, he definitely needed more knowledge reserve regarding films.

At the very beginning, his thought was just that the company's benefits were really good, and he would just come here to earn a day's pay for a day's work.

But after staying here for a long time, he suddenly discovered that this company was truly good.

Salary paid at the beginning of the month, all kinds of benefits fully provided, no overtime policy, five-star chefs in the cafeteria… and so on. Under the bombardment of a series of benefits, he gradually changed his mind; perhaps working in this company for a lifetime would also be quite nice!

His current mindset was that he must work hard; he absolutely had to keep such a good job!

"Hu Bian is right. The props for filming the movie must be realistic and faithful. I'd rather spend more money than use those shoddy props."

"If movie special effects and movie filming can be carried out simultaneously, that would also be very good. Let's do this: I will take the filming team to carry out the shooting."

"As for the movie special effects, Hu Bian, you will supervise that side. After all, you wrote the script, and you must have more ideas regarding the requirements and fantasies for the special effects than we do."

"For the special effects team, let's use the same special effects team that made [demon subduing record] last time; their quality is very good."

Listening to Hu Bian's words, Luo Xiao slowly nodded. "Do you have any other opinions?"

Wang Bin and Hu Bian both shook their heads, indicating they had no other opinions.

"In that case, let's proceed according to the plan. Hu Bian, you stay in the company and take charge of the special effects."

"Wang Bin and I will set off for filming the day after tomorrow."

Luo Xiao looked at Wang Bin and Hu Bian and finalized the matter directly. He then stood up and walked outside, although his gait was a bit strange.

"I still have some things to do here; I need to go out for a trip." Saying this, he pushed open the office door and walked out.

Nanhe Coffee, Zhang Lan watched as someone who was walking very unnaturally walked into the coffee shop.

After thinking for a moment, she waved her hand.

"Are you Zhang Lan?" Luo Xiao was stunned when he saw someone waving, then walked over.

"Yes, you must be General Manager Luo, please take a seat." Zhang Lan smiled and pointed to the seat.

"How did you recognize me?" Luo Xiao sat down carefully and looked at Zhang Lan with confusion.

The two had never met before. Yet the other party had started waving the moment he entered the coffee shop.

No wonder Assistant Shen had Zhang Lan look at his photo, but how did Assistant Shen have his photo? Was it an ID photo!
