Full-level Director

Chapter 17 Box Office

"What's wrong, Aunt Lan?" Lin Juan answered the phone, his voice was low and hoarse as if he had just woken up, and he was thinking in his heart.

[What happened to the movie? 】

"Just woke up, Xiaojuan? Did you pay attention to the movie's launch yesterday?" Li Lan's elegant and gentle voice was full of smiles. This is really a woman who fully displayed the temperament and charm of a mature woman.

"No, I'm working on the copywriting of "The Center of the Earth." Lin Juan rubbed his hair and said, he had watched that movie too much, now it's online, I'll leave it to the audience, and watch it when I have time The result is on the line.

"You don't need to work so hard. This project will be handled by you. Don't worry too much. You still have to pay attention to your health." Li Lan said gently with a little warning.

"Understood Aunt Lan." Lin Juan felt warm in his heart.

"Well, I called to congratulate you. Since the film was launched yesterday, the score has been as high as 8.6 points, and the accumulated payment has been paid for by 130,000 people. At present, the total box office is more than 538,000. It has entered the Qiyi theater circuit. Thirteenth on the daily box office list."

"If we keep up the momentum today, it won't be a problem if the box office breaks two million." Li Lan said with a smile. With her status, it is naturally impossible for her to be excited about such a box office. But if the investment is successful, it is inevitable to be happy. No one will gossip about the "Adventure" project.

After all, the total publicity cost of "Going Home" is only about 600,000 yuan, and it almost pays back in one day, and it will be earned later.

"Well, I see, thank you, Aunt Lan." Lin Juan responded with a shy smile, and then didn't know what to say.

This damn otaku attribute...

"Why are you polite? How about Xiaojuan? I'm going to be a millionaire soon. Are you happy?" Li Lan asked with great interest.

"Well...it's okay, I can buy a house for my parents." After thinking about it, Lin Juan said a little happily. After working hard all his life, his parents never had a house of his own. My mother has always had a knot in her heart. Now that it's all over, the house must be fine.

As for himself... To be honest, he doesn't have any needs, as long as he has the funds to make movies.

Huh...the demand doesn't seem to be low...

"Good boy, it's all right, you can continue to work, my aunt will treat you to dinner in two days, pay attention to your health, and the company has applied for a Weibo account for you, which has been verified, and I will send you the account number later. "Li Lan said kindly.

"Okay." Lin Juan nodded.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Juan scratched his head and clicked on the photo album, which contained the schedule sent by the coordinator.

Today is the day when the main creators meet and face the script for the first time.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, we will gather in the rehearsal room of Chenguang Building.

Lin Juan got up to wash up, changed into casual clothes, looked in the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction.

Hey, what a handsome director.

The weather is so nice today.

...

At 1:40 in the afternoon, Lin Juan, who was holding a stack of storyboard scripts with Will, came to the Chenguang rehearsal room and opened the door, but there was no one inside.

"They're not here yet," Will said.

Lin Juan hummed and looked around. There were no stools, and he didn't bother to look for them. Will said he would move a few, but he said no, so he went in and found a random corner to sit on the wooden floor and put the sub-camera on. Put them on the ground, line them up carefully, take a look at them, take out a pen from your pocket, follow the small notebook you carry with you, lean against the corner of the wall and draw again.

His experience is that simply leaning against the wall for a long time will hurt the spine, but if it is a corner, because there is a gap between the corners, it will be very comfortable.

Lin Juan drew carefully, but this time what he drew has nothing to do with "Journey to the Center of the Earth".

It was a man in military uniform, armed with a rifle, with a resolute expression, surrounded by enemies that were gradually encircling him.

In the huge rehearsal room, Lin Juan was at ease.

Over the years,

He has long been used to doing things related to movies in any free time. He is not alone, and movies are his best toys.

Will wanted to say something a few times, but he didn't dare to interrupt, so he started watching those sub-cameras by himself, and the more he watched, the more absorbed he became.

Time gradually passed, maybe five minutes, maybe ten minutes, when Lin Juan's painting was almost finished, a beautiful figure pushed open the door, she was slightly taken aback when she saw Lin Juan, then asked with a surprised smile : "Director Lin, why are you sitting here?"

There was a girlish vivacity in her words, and her voice was hoarse and unique. Lin Juan raised his head, and the first thing he saw was a pair of long legs. The girl was only wearing a pair of small white shoes, and her ankles showed white socks with patterns. Delicate and straight long legs, dazzling white.

Denim shorts, white short sleeves tied up, the stretched fabric outlines the girl's pretty figure, flaxen curly long hair shawl, beautiful and delicate face, wearing a white peaked cap.

It was the heroine of the movie who arrived.

Guan Xiaotong, one of the new four young actresses in China, but she can only act in TV dramas for the time being, this time she has the opportunity to make a movie, and she did not hesitate to come after reading the script.

"Well, sit down." Lin Juan said with a smile, putting away his personal notebook.

Will stood up quickly, and introduced himself with a smile: "Hello, I'm Will, and I also play Will in this play."

Guan Xiaotong bowed slightly to Will, smiled politely and said, "Hi, I'm Guan Xiaotong."

The atmosphere was slightly awkward, but Guan Xiaotong, a girl from Shangjing, sensed something was wrong, and quickly said, "Let's sit down."

"Okay." Will nodded quickly, and sat down again. Guan Xiaotong didn't hesitate, and simply sat down cross-legged. She is from the Film Academy, and she often sits on the floor when she is in physical class, and she doesn't care at all.

Lin Juan wasn't surprised either. He had observed the actor's character during the interview, and he definitely wouldn't want someone who was too squeamish and had a lot of shit.

"Director Lin, are these the sub-shots of our play?" Guan Xiaotong pointed to the sub-shot scripts in a place and asked curiously, his eyes sparkling.

This is the movie!

She has been looking forward to it for a long time since passing the audition!

"Well, there are scene numbers on them, and I will tell you about the lines later." Lin Juan nodded and looked at the time by the way.

One fifty-three.

"Okay." Guan Xiaotong nodded, peeking at the storyboard.

"You can take a look first." Lin Juan said with a smile after noticing her movement.

"Okay." Guan Xiaotong happily reached out to pick up a few shot scripts and read them carefully. After a while, the door of the rehearsal room was pushed open again.

Zhang Shan hurried in, carrying a large bag of drinks and fruits in his hand, and smiled when he saw them: "Is it all here? Sorry, I was delayed on the road for a while, I'm not late for too long, am I?"

"No, come and sit down." Guan Xiaotong smiled and waved. Although they had never cooperated before, they had met at some events before.

"Okay, I'm sorry, wait for me alone, and I'll treat you to dinner later." Zhang Shan said with an apologetic smile, with a sense of heroism.

Lin Juan smiled and said, "Okay, sit down quickly, everyone is here, then let's start officially, have you brought the script?"
