I am the rich second generation

Chapter 54 Recording Short Films

The senior management of Xu Ran's company was in an uproar.

The conditions proposed by Bao Wu are something that many young directors, even veteran directors, dream of.

"It sounds good, but what if I lose." Xu Ran was still calm and natural.

"Hmph, if you lose, you have to do two things!" Under Bao Wu's excitement, his expression unavoidably became a little ferocious. "The first thing is, you have to ask Jiang Ke to unconditionally give us all the copyrights of the song "Chasing Dreams", and she has to put down everything she is doing and concentrate on recording songs for the movie."

"Second thing, Xu Ran, I want you to hold a press conference and make a public apology to all the news and online media. If I am not satisfied with the content of the apology, you have to apologize a second time, a third time, Until I am satisfied." Bao Wu stretched out two fingers with an extremely serious expression.

"This, this condition is too bullying, isn't it? What's the difference between the first condition and the contract of prostitution." Zhang Ye, who is a fan of the big director, couldn't stand it anymore and complained.

"I'm willing to bet and admit defeat. If your boss doesn't dare to bet, then admit it. I won't say anything more." Faced with doubts, Bao Wu didn't take it seriously, and stared at Xu Ran.

"I can accept this condition, so let's take a gamble." Xu Ran's answer was beyond everyone's expectations, including Bao Wu.

The big director originally thought that the other party would refuse, and then seized the opportunity to ridicule the other party to save some face.

Unexpectedly, Xu Ran agreed to this without even thinking about it.

"Okay, that's what you said, Xu Ran, don't admit it when you lose." Bao Wu picked up the hard drive and left proudly.

"Xu Ran, are you joking? If Jiang Ke finds out about this, he will definitely fight you hard." After the other senior executives of the company also left the conference room one after another, Liu Hao finally couldn't help asking.

"That's right, are you out of your mind? Jiang Ke's song, the subsequent copyright fees and so on are all added up. At least one hundred million will go up. You just handed it over to others!" Zhang Ye also said. Showed a puzzled expression.

Including Zhuang Zhou, they also looked worried. "We all think that what you said just now is not wrong, but Bao Wu has been a director for so many years. Although the mode of the current works is a bit fixed, the ratings of each film are still not low."

"It's okay, I've already thought about how to make a movie to silence Bao Wu, and I have candidates for actors." Xu Ran's expression was extremely relaxed.

"Ah?" The three of Zhang Ye were stupefied, because of the tacit understanding for many years, they had an ominous premonition.

"Damn, it's not us you're talking about, Xu Ran, don't play like this!" Liu Hao said excitedly with his eyes puffed up.

"That's right, it's you. After all, you are the top management of the company, and you must actively participate in all the company's activities and plans." Xu Ran said solemnly, but the snickering expression caused several people to collapse even more.

"The few of us are not professional actors, Xu Ran, if you are not sure, you might as well go to Bao Wu for a private reconciliation now." Zhang Ye pulled Xu Ran's arm, looking like he was about to cry without tears.

"Go to reconcile now, Bao Wu will definitely not agree." Zhuang Zhou said mercilessly.

"Why do you want to reconcile? I am confident that this bet will definitely win, but I really need to seek Jiang Ke's opinion on this matter." Xu Ran was full of confidence, but he couldn't help feeling a little guilty when he mentioned Jiang Ke.

Sure enough, the newly promoted female singer who got the news immediately rushed from the recording room to the company's president's office. "Xu Ran! Did you take the wrong medicine? Why didn't you notify me in advance of such an important matter and discuss it with me?"

"Hey, Miss Jiang Ke, please pay attention to your attitude, I'm your boss." Seeing the angry Jiang Ke, Xu Ran couldn't help but become embarrassed. "And now, didn't I inform you of this?"

"If you really want to make a good film, I can find some classmates. They are all students of the acting department, and some of them are already actors. Their acting skills should be able to pass the test." Jiang Ke faced Xu Ran rolled her coquettish eyes and said softly.

Seeing the state of interaction between the two, Zhang Ye and others coughed a few times one after another. Although Jiang Ke didn't blush when he heard it, his expression became more subtle unconsciously.

"From the beginning, I didn't want to find professional actors to make this film." Xu Ran's answer was surprising.

"I want to make a short youth comedy film, this type, sometimes using amateur or new actors, there will be unexpected results." When Bao Wu made the bet, Xu Ran had already thought of the idea, including the actors, and also Intended to choose nearby.

"Speaking of it this way, it sounds like something is going on, Xu Ran, let's do it this way. Anyway, you and Jiang Ke are the ones who suffer the most from losing. We have nothing to do." Zhang Ye said a little excitedly, and at the same time did not Forget taking a sip of poisonous chicken soup.

"Then, if I lose this bet, I have to reconsider your annual salary and bonuses." Xu Ran also joked, and they quickly found their status amidst the laughter.

The shooting location was finally chosen in an ordinary apartment building.

In order not to affect the shooting, Xu Ran directly bought the entire building.

And in order to make it easier for Zhang Ye and Jiang Ke to experience that state, most of the rooms in the apartment were rented out at a low price as a benefit to nearby college students and migrant workers.

In order to express their gratitude, many apartment residents also specially provided short videos and interesting stories in their lives to Xu Ran. Xu Ran even used his knowledge and talent of reading books about film directors in his spare time during college, and spent just one week. Over time, the script for this short film was created.

"Is there any mistake? Give me this kind of role, Xu Ran, are you still holding grudges against me for stealing your instant noodles in my freshman year!" After getting the script, some people were happy and others were worried. Can't stop crying.

"If you don't tell me, I forgot about this. It seems that I need to add some drama to you." Xu Ran joked seriously.

At this time, both the participants and the filming staff he recruited were infected by this relaxed and humorous atmosphere, so the filming process went much smoother, and it only took two weeks to finish.

Including post-production and pre-production scripts, the total time added up has not exceeded one month.

Xu Ran immediately sent a private plane to pick up Bao Wu. Before the director came to the company, Xu Ran also arranged for someone to post the short film on the Internet.

A few hours later, Bao Wu came to Xu Ran's company. After the two met, they came to the meeting room of Xu Ran's company again without saying a word.

"Boss Xu, are you planning to fool me with a month-long trash movie? It seems that I won this bet." Before the movie was played, Bao Wu arrogantly put his legs on the conference table, The tone is even a little bit bad.

"Whether it's rubbish or not, you'll know when you see it." Xu Ran smiled mysteriously, and didn't refute the other party's words, but just played the short video silently. After the picture and sound appeared, Bao Wu's eyes lit up immediately.
