??As September approached, the Lu family father and son finally couldn't stand the two-front battle, passively suspended the entanglement with Cen Linran, and shifted their attention to saving the company's business.

?? But this time has missed the best time.

??The disputes over family affairs have made people inside and outside the circle watch enough excitement. In the past, the business partners have more or less opinions on this. In addition, Qi Yu's company is aggressively attacking, which has caused Lu's living space to shrink day by day.

??In just a few months, the strength of the Lu family was severely damaged, and they no longer had the previous arrogance.

??As the victor of this business war, the Qi family has reaped all the benefits—not only has it solved its own competitors, but it has also laid the foundation for future development.

?? When the battle between Qi Yu and the Lu family was in full swing, Cen Jue was not idle.

?? At the end of August, "Mo Li" was released in China.

??This film earned nearly one billion box office during the entire schedule, setting a new record for the highest box office of a literary film.

??As the producer of "Mo Li", Aurora Films has made a lot of money from a small-budget film, and has gained enough limelight in the industry.

?? Taking advantage of the wind, Jing Yuanbai even began to plan for the opportunity of the company's listing - if it can be listed in the country, it will be of great benefit to the company's development and the interests of shareholders.

??In addition to "Mo Li" performing well at the domestic box office, it also performed quite well in theaters of foreign art films.

?? This film, which won the "Best Picture" at the City A Film Festival, attracted the attention of many film critics as soon as it landed.

??At the end of August, several well-known film critics in Europe devoted a lot of space to introducing "Mo Li", which made the film even more popular in foreign countries.

?? Taking advantage of the rising popularity abroad, Zhou Daolai and Cen Jue talked about the shooting of the new film.

?? "Do you have a new book recently? Taking advantage of the east wind this time, do you consider filming it and taking it to major film festivals?"

?? One of the reasons why Director Zhou made this suggestion is that his own film failed at the Venice International Film Festival not long ago.

??This entry film has been filmed since last year, and countless painstaking efforts have been put into it.

??This time Venice Film Festival, both director Zhou and the domestic media are full of confidence in this, but they never expected to lose to the directors of neighboring countries in the competition for the best film.

??Even though he also won the Lifetime Achievement Award, he was a bit uneasy after all.

??After the film festival ended, Director Zhou seemed to be nonchalant and didn't take this matter to heart, but when communicating with people close to him in private, he revealed a little loneliness in his words.

?? "Literary and artistic creation is like this. I have done it to 65, and I have paid back my money. It is time to retire."

?? Having said that, but after Director Zhou took a week off, he felt too idle and tried every means to find something to do.

??Without filming, cultivating the next generation is the top priority of the current task——

?? Cen Jue is naturally the leader of this "next generation".

?? Facing Director Zhou's question, Cen Jue naturally did not "know flattery".He sent the script he just wrote to Director Zhou, and it didn't take long before he received a reply from the other party.

?? "The core of the script is good, did you write it yourself?"

?? "Yes, still a first draft."

??Speaking of which, this is what Director Zhou likes most about Cen Jue—no matter what achievements he has made, he will never stop growing.

?? Others have just won a heavyweight award, and may want to rest.

?? But Cen Jue will not, because work is not "paying" for people like them, but "getting".

?? "When do you plan to start construction?"

??Director Zhou glanced at the calendar. If he rushed to shoot, he could still catch up with Cannes next year.

?? "We are making preparations."

?? Not only Director Zhou couldn't stop the work in hand, but also Cen Jue?

??I was worried about Qi Yu's comfort before, but after I found out that Qi Yu didn't have to worry about it, my attention shifted to work.

?? "Why don't I be your producer?" Director Zhou proposed over the phone.

?? Producer is a position with Huaguo characteristics.

??Compared with the producer, this position is more suitable to be defined as a person who "leads the direction" and "makes suggestions" in some crews, and it is often taken by someone with some film and television experience.

??To some extent, it is more inclined to the role of "consultant".

"If you are willing to mention me, that is of course an opportunity I can't wait for." Cen Jue was flattered, but there was hesitation in his tone, "It's just..."

??"What's wrong?"

?? Here, Director Zhou had just finished asking, and before Cen Jue could reply, the phone was snatched by another person.

?? Immediately afterwards, Director Zhou heard a familiar voice.

"Why are you hesitating, little brat, why don't you hurry up and agree to such a good opportunity."

"If he wants to come, you should let him come quickly. What are you doing so long?"

??After reprimanding Cen Jue, Jin Shuo held the phone carelessly and said, "Lao Zhou, first come first, first come first, you have to be second in the producer ranking."

?? Director Zhou was taken aback for a moment.

??"This is……"

?? Director Jin said: "Hey, isn't this obvious? I watched this movie first, but for the sake of the child, I am reluctantly willing to work with you."

?? Director Zhou finally understood why Cen Jue was silent for a while.

?? It turned out that Jin Shuo had already acted preemptively when he was busy with other things.

??Speaking of which, this person has been promoting Cen Jue since the premiere of "Mo Li", and even wrote a film review.

??Thinking of this, Director Zhou couldn't say any more words of rejection, and sighed: "Alright, alright, let's be together."

??The reason why he has the title of "Supervisor" is to help and let the next generation go further, not to distinguish himself from others and compete for status in the world.

?? "You old boy is sensible." Jin Shuo said, "Then when will you come out for a meeting?"

?? Director Zhou said: "You might as well come to my house and I will cook."

?? Jin Shuo readily agreed.

??So, before Cen Jue made this film, he had already recruited two big bosses to supervise it.

?? This row of noodles, if it is said, others will stare wide-eyed and be speechless for a long time.

??Two directors, pulling one out is already scary enough, and the two get together?This is unprecedented in film history!

?? After confirming the joining of the two directors, before Cen Jue had time to rest, he was stopped by Li Kaiguang who rushed over from Tingfeng.

?? "I heard that this drama is going for awards?"

??This statement is obviously nonsense. With the current configuration, if it is said that there is no intention, I am afraid no one will believe it.

"So, let Mr. Jing come in as the producer of this drama!"

?? This is the real reason why Li Kaiguang came here - he really didn't believe in his own ability because of the two big mountains in front of him.

?? Although he was a producer of a film, he still followed the steps in the final analysis. If he wanted to lead the film to a further step, he was still a bit short.

?? If he messes up this scene, he will become a sinner through the ages.

?? "...I mean it, just let me work."

??Cen Jue didn't expect that the joining of the big boss didn't bring any benefits first, but scared his own people instead.

"Don't worry." Cen Jue reassured, "Things may not be as you imagined."

??Although there are two supervisors, each director has a different idea of ​​creation. What other people can do is to provide opinions, but the director himself decides how to shoot the film.

?? In other words, this drama still has to rely on itself.

??The development of things is indeed as Cen Jue expected.

?? After reading the script, Director Zhou and Director Jin did not give a "good" or "bad" evaluation. They only talked about what they liked and where they still had doubts.

??In addition, it is popular science on the tastes of the judges of several major film festivals, as well as the experience of participating in these film festivals.

?? This knowledge, not personally experienced, it is impossible to come from elsewhere.

??Even though Cen Jue has the experience of participating in domestic film festivals, listening to it now, he still feels that he has benefited a lot.

??The preparations for the new film will soon enter the next stage, and Zeng Ni will polish the script written by Cen Jue.

??At Zeng Ni's suggestion, the script was handed over to a familiar foreign screenwriter to continue to revise.

??The cultures of the two sides are different, so many plots that seem to be normal and self-evident in China are difficult to understand in the eyes of foreign friends.

?? In order to solve this problem, the script was returned to Cen Jue for another round of revisions.

?? After repeated many times, it can be regarded as the completion of this link.

??While revising the script, the main creative team is also negotiating with potential investors.

?? For the first two films, Jiguang Film and Television's own funds accounted for the majority, and the participation of the remaining partners was limited.

??But this drama, because of the joining of directors Zhou and Jin, there have been new changes in the source of funds.

??The funds involved in the two directors must be included. In addition, funds related to the Film Association and funds related to foreign competitions must be included.

??Before the filming of a film starts, the interests of all parties have been coordinated through the relationship of investment to provide assistance for the subsequent links.

?? In this room, the arrangements for Cen Jue's new movie are in full swing. On the other side, Qi Yu and Jing Yuanbai's great cause of finding people is stuck at a critical stage.

??Before, they suspected that Ren Zong's death had left clues about the person behind the scenes, so they tried to find this clue and catch the mastermind behind the scenes.

?? After some investigation, they determined the most likely object of suspicion on a director surnamed Qin.

?? However, this director surnamed Qin has an old-fashioned and stubborn personality. He rarely interacts with people on weekdays. In addition, he has worked in the industry all year round and has a certain reputation. He is the most difficult type to overcome.

??Jing Yuanbai asked someone to check Director Qin's information, and managed to make an appointment with him.

?? It's just that this meeting not only didn't reveal any clues, but was also ridiculed.

?? "This man is just like the stinky stone in the latrine!"

?? After many days, Jing Yuanbai still felt heartbroken when he thought of the other party's sarcastic remarks.

??"……Hard."

??Jing Yuanbai has a lot of friends and is well-known in the circle for his good temper. To be able to make him so angry is obviously because of the astonishing combat prowess of that Director Qin.

?? "The other people have been investigated, and they all have a mediocre relationship with Ren Zong. No matter how you look at it, they don't seem to be trusted by Ren Zong."

?? In other words, if you want to know the answer to this question, you have to pry open the mouth of Director Qin.

??"How to do this?"

?? Qi Yu pondered for a moment: "Although Ren Zong is inseparable from the two car accidents, it is not clear why he died. If Qin Song really wants to make a comeback, he will definitely find a way to expose what he knows come out."

?? "Then why didn't he look for me? Didn't I deliver it to my door?"

?? Qi Yu said: "Maybe I think you are not reliable enough."

??Jing Yuan said angrily: "I'm not reliable, who else is reliable?!"

?? Thinking of this, Jing Yuanbai had a flash of inspiration: "You said, this person surnamed Qin is the director, and our Director Cen is also the director, or—"

??"no."

?? Before Jing Yuan finished his vernacular, Qi Yu vetoed it.

??Qi Yu's face was serious, and his tone was awe-inspiring: "Don't involve him in these matters."

??Even if he didn't investigate, he didn't want to implicate Cen Jue.

?? What's more, who can judge whether the surname Qin is good or bad?Who can guarantee that he has no evil intentions?

?? Qi Yu can not afford to take this risk.

"Okay." Jing Yuanbai suppressed this idea at Qi Yu's insistence.

??At the same time, Cen Jue was chatting with Director Jin about the same person.

??The crew lacked a director of photography, and Director Jin is strongly recommending Qin Song to Cen Jue.

?? "He was born in photography, and he prefers being a photographer to being a director. Just ask him, maybe he can succeed."

??Cen Jue hesitated: "Is this... okay?"

?? Director Jin said: "I guarantee it! Others may not succeed, but you definitely can."

?? "?"

?? "Secretly tell you, Lao Qin likes your movies, the last time I saw you, he asked for it!"
