Rebuilding the business empire

Looking at the yellowed notebook that Pei An handed over.

Wu Yushan, who didn't understand what was going on, suddenly became confused.

What is going on?

But the next second, he still took it in a daze.

Before she could ask.

Pei An said, "This is a script segment that I spent a lot of effort to create a few years ago. The content of the script is enough for me to judge an actor's talent. I heard Mr. Ye introduce you and said that you are not a professional actor, but that doesn't matter. You just need to show me your talent through the interpretation of the content of this script!"

What?

How to judge an actor's talent?

Before Wu Yushan could turn the yellowed blank page of the script in her hand in surprise.

Pei An said again, "You only have forty-five minutes. I will only give you forty-five minutes to finish reading the contents and figure out how to act them out! These forty-five minutes will determine whether you are suitable to be an actor!"

Pei An, who was very decisive, raised his wrist and looked at the time on his watch as soon as he finished speaking. "Let's get started!"

After saying that, he ignored Wu Yushan.

He turned to look at Ye Chen and Zhao Jiwei, "Boss Ye, Boss Zhao, forty-five minutes cannot be wasted, let's not stay here and disturb her, let's go...I'll take you to see the situation of the crew first!

"good!"

While nodding in response.

Ye Chen gently raised his hand and patted Wu Yushan's arm, "If you can get Director Pei's approval, I will help you with Teacher Yan's work!

"Yeah!" Wu Yushan nodded vigorously.

Then he didn't dare to waste any more time talking nonsense and hurriedly opened the yellowed bound book.

"Boss Ye, actually we are in Hengdian mainly to take pictures and rush to shoot a few scenes. It's just that I am a little too perfectionist. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother to come to Hengdian in person and just hand it over to the assistant directors. After all, the content of these scenes in Hengdian is not very important, so it won't have much impact even if I am not there!

After making time and space for Wu Yushan.

Pei An brought Ye Chen and Zhao Jiwei to the filming area of ​​the crew. Looking at the filming going on in front, Pei An explained.

"It's good to pursue perfection. A commercial film is only a hundred minutes long at most.

Looking at all the popular and well-received movies in the theaters, almost every minute, every second, and even every frame is the essence, and the essence is often based on meticulous craftsmanship! The movie you are directing now can be said to be the first shot of our Tamron Pictures, and it is also the first shot of Tamron Pictures on the big screen. There must be no flaws, so no matter from which aspect, there can be no negligence or perfunctory heart! "Ye Chen said in a serious voice.

"Mr. Ye, don't worry. No matter in the past, now or in the future, my work is my life! For me, any slackness or perfunctoriness towards my work would be tantamount to suicide. And I, Pei An, have not lived enough, far from enough!" Pei An said solemnly.

Based on his understanding of Pei An in his previous life, Ye Chen would naturally not doubt Pei An's professional attitude.

Even Pei An's attitude towards his work has reached a level that is almost paranoid.

Otherwise, he would not have been called a madman in his previous life.

The severity of the rules has even led to countless actors and industry insiders calling him insane.

But it was Pei An's decades-long "neurosis" that led to the glory of Chinese-language films reaching the top of the altar, and the supreme honor of being hailed as the number one contemporary director by all mainstream media and industry insiders around the world, and the birth of the record-breaking super-high box office, and the achievement of countless movie kings and queens...

So the label of "lunatic" on him was indeed a derogatory term at the beginning, so much so that countless actors were afraid to talk about Pei An, but later... when people mentioned Pei An's "lunatic", they all brought a kind of spontaneous admiration and worship, and the situation of being afraid to talk about Pei An in the past in the actor circle eventually evolved into countless actors dreaming of getting Pei An's favor and getting a role invitation from Pei An, even if it was not paid...

For such a "lunatic", how could Ye Chen be worried except for his unconditional trust and support?

Just nod and say goodbye.

Ye Chen asked, "How long will it take for this film to be completed?"

"It will probably be finished in another two or three months! Originally, in my plan, if everything had gone well, it would have been finished last month. However, due to the core interpretations of life and death, friendship, family and the world involved, the requirements for the actors are quite high. In addition, I want to open up a new genre with this movie, so I have tried my best to pursue perfection in every aspect, so the shooting schedule has to be extended again and again!" Pei An replied.

"Director Pei, how much do you think this movie will earn at the box office when it hits theaters?" asked Zhao Jiwei.

"Based on my understanding and analysis of the film market, I estimate that it will not be less than 3 billion!" Pei An said sternly after thinking for a while.

"Three billion?" Zhao Jiwei suspected that he had heard it wrong.

"Yes, no less than 3 billion! If it's less than this number, I, Pei An, will work for Tenglong Pictures for free for the rest of my life!"

Following the last meeting with Ye Chen in the DOA Cafe, Pei An once again issued a crazy military order.

"Director Pei, are you signing a military order? Although we invested 500 million yuan in this movie, the investment and box office returns are not necessarily proportional. You know, looking at the domestic box office, there are not many movies with a box office of over 3 billion yuan!

At this moment, Zhao Jiwei just wanted to say that Pei An was crazy, absolutely crazy!

It would be fine if Pei An only envisioned a box office of 3 billion.

But at the moment, he is using the 3 billion box office to issue a military order!

Let me ask, is there any domestic director who dares to make such a guarantee?

Unexpectedly, Pei An shook his head in response to the voice.

"Before I met Mr. Ye, I was just an assistant director who was not well-received. I rarely had the opportunity to direct a movie myself, but I lost my job because of my unyielding personality. In this context, Mr. Ye appreciated me by chance and acquired Orange Melon Pictures to sign me as the chief director. He also provided me with 500 million yuan to shoot my hard-earned script. To be honest, although I don't know why Mr. Ye made such a decision, it is not important to me. What is important is that I have to live up to what he provided me! And the only thing I can give back is the box office!"

"So, if the box office of this movie is less than 3 billion, then I, Pei An, will have failed his trust and optimism! Maybe in the eyes of Mr. Zhao, my military order is too crazy and unnecessary, but for me, it is not the case. Apart from my confidence in this box office figure, this box office is also the bottom line of my explanation to Mr. Ye, and it is also the bottom line of my explanation to myself!"

Pei An spoke in a serious and resounding voice.

Between the lines, one can clearly see the nature of a madman.
