My Online Cloud Girlfriend - Chapter 146

[Chapter 144 Test Potential]

……

At the same time, the conference room of Morning Dew Films.

Seeing Chen Yan leave the conference room, Yang Rou was left alone.

Lu Man looked left and right, and found that no one noticed him later.

She was like a sneaky little cat, tiptoeing to Yang Rou’s side.

Gently sit beside Yang Rou.

Lu Man smiled “hehe” at Yang Rou.

Yang Rou looked up at Lu Man with a blank expression.

In the past two days, under the popular science of Sister Mei and the “publicity” among the other employees of the company, Lu Man already knew that Yang Rou was an excellent gold producer.

In the face of this kind of bully, Lu Man always hides his willfulness, and pretends to be as obedient as he wants.

So she looked at Yang Rou with beautiful eyes and said cautiously, “Sister Rou. Can I ask you something?”

Yang Judo, “You say it.”

Lu Man looked left and right, and after realizing that no one was paying attention, he asked in a low voice, “How much do you think our movie will get at the box office?”

Hearing someone ask this question again, Yang Rou gave Lu Man a deep look.

Then she replied calmly, just as she answered Chen Yan for the first time, “There is no way to estimate the box office now.”

“A movie is a product of teamwork. Now only the script has been determined, and the rest, whether the production staff, actors, or distribution company, schedule, etc., are all uncertain, so it is impossible to predict.”

Lu Man pouted, a little unwilling.

After a moment, she asked again, “So… everything is going as normal?”

Yang Rou looked at Lu Man again.

Even though she has a cold temperament, she never gossip.

But at this moment, I couldn’t help but come up with an idea: No wonder the boss likes this girl, the characters of the two are really similar, and even the problems are almost the same.

She paused, then took out her remarks to Chen Yan again, “If everything is standard configuration. General directors, general actors, general distribution companies, general schedules. It may be more than 100 million. It’s just capital preservation.”

“If you use the best of everything, your acting skills will explode, the schedule traffic will be large and there will be no rivals. Regardless of the cost, it may be around three or four billion.”

Speaking of this, she added, “However. This is just my inference from experience. When there is no film and no opponents in the same period are known, everything is unknown.”

Lu Man raised his eyebrows when he heard Yang Rou’s judgment.

Under normal circumstances, only one hundred million…

In this case, how can I explain to Chen Yan…

I was bragging that day, saying that I could get 500 million box office.

In the end, there is only one hundred million, and the capital is guaranteed.

How should Chen Yan see himself…

As for everything Yang Rou said, the box office can reach three or four billion.

Lu Man just listened.

How can it be possible to make a movie to the extreme.

Don’t say anything else, even if you work hard to improve your acting skills, where can you find the best director, the best lighting, the best camera…

Even if all of this can be done.

But how can I guarantee the schedule and publicity?

You know, the film industry is the most prone to surprises.

Maybe you choose the schedule carefully, and you happen to encounter a dark horse explosion that squeezes all your films.

This is not even what a professional can predict.

Lu Man felt a little headache.

She wants to make money for Chen Yan…

I want to prove myself to Chen Yan…

But it seems… to fail.

……

At this time,

Chen Yan, who was in his office, waited for a full two minutes before finally revealing the content behind the Polaroid photo.

[“Twenty-Three Days of Broken Love”, a female-themed movie.

】

Development cost: about 30 million.

Expected revenue: around 100-400 million.

Project Evaluation: An excellent female-themed film.

Has the potential to become a masterpiece.

However, there are certain requirements for the actor’s acting skills and fit, so please choose carefully.

Project suggestion: increase publicity, choose a good schedule, and follow the guidance of professionals.

Overall evaluation: four stars.

After watching the game’s evaluation of this movie, Chen Yan has a new understanding of Yang Rou’s ability.

This woman really has a keen judgment on projects.

I don’t know if she has done too many projects, or she is pure talent, but her estimated range is indeed accurate.

But….how can this range of expected returns be so wide?

Is it because the project plan just lists a bunch of lists and does not identify the specific personnel?

Thinking of this, Chen Yan couldn’t help pondering.

So… If you try to confirm the list yourself, can you judge who is most suitable for this position through the range change?

Thinking of this, Chen Yan felt that this idea was correct.

He flipped through the entire planning book and decided to…let’s start with the director.

Yang Rou has a total of ten candidates for the director.

Chen Yan picked up the project planning book in his hand.

Start trying them out.

The method to try is very simple, that is to cross out the list of directors, and then write only the names of certain directors.

The first director’s name is [Feng Jun].

Chen Yan crossed out the names of the other directors and then wrote his name.

After writing the name, Chen Yan closed the plan and waited patiently with the photo.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Just when Chen Yan was a little tired of waiting, suddenly, the words on the back of the photo began to distort and reorganize…

After a while, the change was over, and the changed panel appeared in front of Chen Yan.

Nothing else has changed, only the expected return has changed.

[Expected income: around 1-110 million.

】

Chen Yan: …

Co-authored.

The first director is almost a lower limit?

Chen Yan silently wrote down the person’s name.

He decided not to work with this director in the future.

As for the reason…

Um.

Just say you don’t like his name.

Although “it’s not good to be a teacher”, Chen Yan was not discouraged.

After all, the results of this experiment at least let him know that his method is feasible.

Therefore, he began to constantly change the plan.

Soon, ten minutes passed.

Ten directors were tried one by one by Chen Yan.

The lowest box office range is the director of this Wang Zijun.

[1-110 million].

The highest is a director named Teng Yufei.

With him as a director, the upper limit of the box office is 400 million.

This means that he is the director in the optimal plan!

But the magic is that among the ten directors, his qualifications and evaluation are not the highest.

Just ranked in the middle.

At the previous meeting, a director surnamed Yuan that everyone was more optimistic about was only ranked second.

The box office cap is 380 million.

It is 20 million lower than Tengyufei.

Chen Yan carefully compared the qualifications and achievements of the two, and really couldn’t see how Teng Yufei was better than this Yuan Dao.

But games don’t lie, so Chen Yan can only think that maybe his directing method just fits this movie.

In addition… There is another strange thing, that is, even if Teng Yufei is so suitable for this movie, it still does not increase the lower limit of the box office.

Even the box office lower limit of ten directors is a unified 100 million.

This made Chen Yan a little worried.

Could it be… what other factors contributed to this movie’s low floor?

But… the people chosen by Sister Yang Rou and the beautiful sister are all elites, so this shouldn’t happen.

Huh?

All… elite?

Thinking of this, a figure suddenly popped into Chen Yan’s mind.

He thought about it…

Crossed out the name of the heroine [Lu Man], and then pondered it for a while, and replaced it with a first-line female star with acting skills that fit the script’s character.

moment.

Expected returns have changed.

[Expected revenue: around 260-420 million.

】

Chen Yan: …

Sure enough, the culprit was found!

It turns out…it’s you, the big brows and big eyes, who’s holding me back!

However… Chen Yan was a little surprised that although Lu Man’s lower limit was low, his upper limit was not low.

It’s just 20 million less than that A-list star at the box office.

This shows… if this guy can play well, he can be comparable to the value of a first-line actress in this drama…

That’s good news.

After all, she is the cloud-raised girlfriend selected by the game, and Chen Yan can’t replace her even if she is a pig teammate.

….

After testing the director, Chen Yan originally wanted to strike while the iron was hot, and then test the other people on this list in turn.

But at this time, the break time for the meeting has ended.

His little secretary Yu Qiaoqiao called him and asked him to go back to the meeting.

So Chen Yan could only put this Polaroid photo in his pocket, and then returned to the conference room with the documents.

If a crew wants to run, there are many things that need to be prepared in the early stage.

For example, setting a venue, such as customizing clothing, such as coordinating actors, director schedules, etc.

The meeting started another hour.

After the meeting was over and the meeting was over, Chen Yan thought about what happened when he was experimenting with the director just now: a director in the middle of the pack would perform better than a director that everyone was optimistic about.

So he thought about it, and then left Yang Rou behind.

Seeing that the big boss and the president had something to talk about, the people in the company left with interest.

After there were only two people left in the conference room, Chen Yan took out a few pieces of candy from his bag and handed it to Yang Rou. I want to talk to you about something.”

Yang Rou took the candy and didn’t eat it.

She put it in front of her and asked, “Boss. What’s the matter?”

Chen Yan considered his tone for a while, and said, “I want to decide the personnel selection, schedule and publicity plan for this project in person.”

Hearing Chen Yan’s words, Yang Rou’s eyes fluctuated a few times. She looked at Chen Yan without speaking, obviously waiting for Chen Yan’s explanation.

Chen Yan hesitated and said, “I want to make sure that the box office of this movie exceeds 500 million. So every detail needs to meet my highest standards.”

Yang Rou looked at Chen Yan with calm eyes.

After a while, she asked, “That company?”

Chen Yan understood what she meant, and said directly, “You are still solely responsible for the company’s affairs, and I will not interfere. Even the crew’s affairs are performed and responsible by you.”

“Only whoever chooses me will decide.”

He paused and said, “Well, it’s a special situation.”
