Secretary Liu asked tentatively,"Mr. Zhang, how about I go and urge him?"

Zhang Jianhua looked at the calendar on the table.

"Today is Friday, give him three more days. Next Tuesday, you go and find out the situation."

If he can't do it, change him immediately.

Waiting for three more days is a way for him to give face to his old friend.

But this is an advertisement related to the company's main business. We must not let this kid treat it as a joke.

……

Weekend.

Chen Xiao got up early.

The script was ready.

Next, we need to decide on the actors.

Chen Xiao sat in front of the computer and opened the list of domestic and foreign film and television awards in the past three years.

In the script, Ruth is 17 years old and has an elegant and classical temperament. Such young and acting actresses are not easy to find.

Chen Xiao spent two hours listing 30 names. Among them, there are 18 actresses and 12 actors.

These people meet the requirements in age and appearance.

But the acting skills need to be confirmed.

With this idea in mind, Chen Xiao clicked on everyone's representative works.

From Saturday to Sunday night, and then to work on Monday, Chen Xiao quickly watched the movies, even on the subway. He was just about to watch movies on his mobile phone when squatting.

Monday night.

Chen Xiao stood up and stretched, holding the handwritten list in his hand, and fell on the bed.

After watching a full fifty or sixty movies in three days, he finally decided on two leading actors.

23-year-old Leo and 22-year-old Wins!

Both are hot new stars in the film industry.

They have been nominated for Oscars at a young age.

The candidates for supporting roles were also roughly decided.

Looking at the list in his hand, the smile on Chen Xiao's lips slowly froze.

Jack, Rose, and Carl are all popular stars. The nouveau riche Molly, the heroine's mother, and the cruise designer Andrew are all former movie kings and queens!

Uh...isn't that a bit too much?

When Uncle Zhang sees this list, will he just throw away the cast list?

If not, the supporting roles can be replaced.

He has master-level directing skills and can guide the supporting roles more.

The protagonist can't be sloppy!

Let's do this for now, and we'll talk about it if it doesn't work.

Chen Xiao dragged his tired body to get up, put the draft on the table, and went to take a shower.

I'm really tired from watching too many movies.

When I have emotional points, the first thing I want to change is the physical enhancement potion!

……

The next morning.

Chen Xiao sat at his workstation with messy hair, planning props and extras.

To convince Uncle Zhang, the first thing is to have a good script and the second is to have a low budget.

The script has been settled.

Next, we need to think about the budget.

The company plans to shoot commercials.

The endorsement fee of a first-line star is between 1 million and 3 million.

Uncle Zhang is willing to shoot a longer commercial.

Based on 15 minutes, two first-line stars are asked to calculate, and Uncle Zhang estimates that the highest budget is 10 million.

But"Titanic" cost 200 million to shoot in the original world, or 200 million US dollars!

How can we lower the price without lowering the quality?

Chen Xiao threw away the pen in his hand, leaned against the chair and took a long breath.

It's really a headache.

Order a milk tea first!

Chen Xiao grabbed the phone, clicked to place an order, rubbed his eyebrows and continued to plan.

Among the props, the most important one is the luxury cruise ship Titanic.

Fortunately, the technology in this world is quite advanced, 3D printing has become popular and cheap.

It doesn't cost too much to 3D print a model of the Titanic.

As for the location, at the end of the last century, the crew spent 100 million US dollars to build a special studio.

But now there is a large shooting site on the coast of the East China Sea. If it can be borrowed, the money for the studio can be saved.

Saving money is saving money, but the details must be carefully controlled!

Wall lamps, carpets, tableware, even the tableware must be printed with the shipyard logo, and must restore the actual Titanic!

The actors are immersed in the scene, and the performance is more realistic.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao paused typing on the keyboard.

It seems that his master-level directing ability has begun to take effect.

Chen Xiao smiled.

This ability is really awesome, as if it has been integrated into his bones and blood.

I have to earn emotion points quickly to exchange for more abilities!

Chen Xiao took a deep breath, tore open a bag of potato chips, and replenished some energy.

After half a bag of potato chips, Chen Xiao wiped his hands and continued to clatter on the keyboard with his ten fingers.

An hour later.

Dinglingling!

The phone on the table suddenly rang.

Chen Xiao frowned slightly.

It interrupted my thoughts!

Quickly wrote down the remaining ideas and answered the phone.

Secretary Liu's voice came from the phone

"Good morning, Xiao Chen. Is anyone else in your office?"

"I was the only one there, they were at a meeting"

"Then I'll come find you."

"OK."

Chen Xiao hung up the phone.

Is this the treatment for people with connections?

They actually asked the deputy general secretary to come here in person.

Within five minutes, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Secretary Liu pushed the door open and saw a cup of milk tea and a bag of freshly opened potato chips next to Chen Xiao.

Yesterday, I heard from a colleague that this young man watched movies all day at his seat.

This is paired with milk tea and potato chips.

He lives a very leisurely life.

This guy used to work hard, but why is he like this now?

Is it because Mr. Zhang takes care of him that he is so arrogant and lazy?

Secretary Liu sighed in his heart, walked over, and was about to sit on the chair next to him.

Suddenly, he found that there were two large piles of documents on Chen Xiao's desk.

On the top were photos of shipwrecks and celebrity photos with handwritten marks.

Secretary Liu was stunned.

No.

Who would print out celebrity photos when watching a movie?

He picked up a few and took a look.

There were densely packed types and numbers of extras written on them.

There were also various props names. They were categorized and clearly organized.

Even he, a secretary who is good at organizing documents, couldn't help but admire it.

Looking at the documents in his hand, Secretary Liu suddenly understood.

This guy is not slacking off!

He has been working overtime for several days.

No wonder he has two dark circles under his eyes.

Secretary Liu raised his lips slightly, praising him.���He looked up, sat down and asked,"Xiao Chen, are these for the commercial?"

Chen Xiao knew it all.

Secretary Liu had been here for so long and hadn't explained his purpose yet. It was obvious that he was here to check on him.

He smiled and said,"Well, I've finished writing the script, have initially confirmed the casting, and am organizing the props. I was planning to ask you for advice tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to contact me first."

Secretary Liu admired his modesty and patted him on the shoulder.

"I'm here too early. You can tell me first if you need any help. Feel free to ask directly!"

"Thank you, Brother Liu. I'll be frank with you then."

A movie cannot be completed by himself.

If he doesn't know how to lead a team, he will have to work hard until he dies.

Secretary Liu has more say than him. Since it's delivered to his door, he will be frank with him.

Chen Xiao clicked on the"Props and Personnel" document in the computer, looked at the document and said,"Brother Liu, I need to borrow a filming location on the East China Sea coast."

There is a film and television base on the East China Sea coast with a large water tank that can be used to shoot falling water scenes.

There is also a huge open coast nearby, which is perfect for boats and outdoor shooting.

Secretary Liu smiled confidently,"No problem! I have acquaintances there"

"I still need a group performance"

"This is natural, how much is needed?"

"More than 2,000."

Secretary Liu was stunned,"How many?""

"More than 2,000. Estimated to be around 2,300"

"Wait, you just said you want to borrow a photography location, how big an area do you want to borrow?"

Chen Xiao replied:"If it's indoors, 1,000 square meters will be enough, but we also need to borrow a nearby beach."

"I also need to build a ship, more than 200 meters long, 3D printed. If the budget is tight, just make half of it and mirror the other half."

"besides……"

Secretary Liu's mouth trembled.

Hearing so many props and venues, his eyes were a little straight.

What's more terrible is that the document named"Props and Personnel" on the screen is still at the beginning.

How much has this kid written?

Secretary Liu swallowed his saliva, interrupted him, and asked tentatively:"We are shooting a commercial, right?"
