After hearing Lu Chen's question, Chen Chuan replied: "It will be cut out soon, there are still about two days."

Now Lu Chen is looking forward to the box office performance of "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance". This movie is not starring any big stars, and there are some actors in it whose acting skills are not particularly good.

At this time, Chen Chuan asked: "Are you also planning to release this movie in online cinemas?"

The Film Association's pursuit and interception brought Chen Yin a lot of trouble. Chen Chuan also knew this, so he wanted to see if Lu Chen had any intention of compromising. If Lu Chen compromised, then those theater chains would ask Lu Chen

Openness. If he doesn't compromise, then Chenyin's movie will never be released in cinemas. Not only will the movie not be released in cinemas, it is very likely that even Chenyin's TV series will not have a TV station or video broadcast website to buy the copyright. This is the biggest problem.

trouble.

Lu Chen replied at this time: "Yes."

"After all, the profit margins of online movie theaters are not small."

Two months after the box office settlement of Westward Journey, Lu Chen and the others also obtained a box office of nearly 800 million for Westward Journey. According to the way of movie theaters, maybe after the movie's release period, there will be no subsequent box office, at most

Sell ​​the copyright to video broadcast websites or TV stations in exchange for one to two billion in copyright fees.

Furthermore, the current film and television bureau stipulates that Lu Chen and the others will only settle the box office of the first two months as the basis for paying taxes and special film funds. Subsequent movie box office does not need to pay film taxes and special film funds. This is very important to Lu Chen and the others.

It is said to be very profitable.

There are no new regulations from the Film and Television Bureau, so we must seize this opportunity, take advantage of more loopholes, and earn more money.

After listening to Lu Chen's answer, Chen Chuan smiled and said, "You are brave enough."

Under the background of the film association uniting with the entire industry to suppress it, Lu Chen still dared to release the movie to online cinemas. Once Lu Chen did this this time, he would definitely be punished by the entire industry with more serious sanctions.

"By the way, you said you have something to do with me today. What do you want?" Chen Chuan asked.

Lu Chen immediately took out a printed script and handed it to Chen Chuan.

"Director Chen, I found a very good script on the script website. Please help me see if it's worth filming."

Chen Chuan took the script and looked at it carefully. His brows quickly furrowed and he asked, "Did Chen Lu write your script?"

Chen Chuan naturally knew that Chen Lu was Lu Chen, but because Shi Yin was nearby and Lu Chen didn't seem to want Shi Yin to know that he was a screenwriter, he didn't ask Lu Chen directly.

Lu Chen smiled and shook his head and said, "No, I found it on a script website."

"This script is very good! Who is its screenwriter?" Chen Chuan asked.

Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "I don't know, but his online name seems to be Feng Chen."

Hearing this name, Chen Chuan was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Lu Chen suspiciously.

Travel dust?

dust?

Now that he heard something with the same pronunciation as "Chen", he was a little suspicious of it being Lu Chen's vest, not to mention that this script was a typical fictional world view, very similar to Lu Chen's script style, and even the world view was very similar.

But since Lu Chen didn't want to say who it was, it wasn't easy for him to ask. He just said: "This script is very good, has great potential, and can be filmed."

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled and asked, "Director Chen, do you have any other plans for the next few months?"

Um?

Lu Chen's question aroused Chen Chuan's alert. He smiled and said, "You don't want me to guide you again, do you?"

Lu Chen said helplessly: "There is no way, many directors don't cooperate with us now."

In fact, Star Culture has a contracted director, and it is not impossible for Lu Chen to find a director. However, Lu Chen plans to let the directors of Star Culture shoot some scripts that he is not very optimistic about. Good scripts are left to big directors. Big directors

Movies and TV series filmed have extra popularity bonuses.

Chen Chuan asked again: "How many episodes does this TV series have in total?"

Lu Chen thought for a while and said, "About episode 33."

Chen Chuan continued to ask: "Are there any particularly difficult places to shoot here?"

Lu Chen probably guessed what Chen Chuan wanted to ask, so he replied:

"This is a fairy tale drama, and there must be many places that are difficult to shoot, so it requires a certain amount of shooting time."

Xianxia drama is different from previous comedies. The previous common comedies can be filmed in one place. This Xianxia drama involves many locations, so it has to go to all over the country for filming and travel across the country, so the filming time must be long.

Obviously more than other TV series.

Chen Chuan thought for a while and then said: "I'm going to be a judge at a film festival in January, and I'm worried that I might not be able to finish filming."

Hearing this, Lu Chen was a little surprised, and then asked: "Director Chen, you are also going to be a judge? Are you true or false? Didn't you say that the Film and Television Bureau will only invite directors from the two major groups?"

Lu Chen gave up participating in the film festival precisely because of what Chen Chuan said at the beginning. Chen Chuan said that only films produced by companies under the two major groups, Shimei and Luying, could win the Jinhua Award, because most of the directors were from these two companies, so Lu Chen

Only then did Chen replace the heroine of "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance".

As a result, Chen Chuan was actually able to serve as a judge. Does that mean that they can actually hope to win the Jinhua Award when participating in the film festival?

Although "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" changed the heroine, their names were still submitted and they will still participate in the selection of the film festival.

Chen Chuan said at this time: "Generally, the Film and Television Bureau only invites directors from the two major groups. This is because good directors have basically signed contracts with these two major groups, but there are exceptions."

Lu Chen asked doubtfully: "Director Chen, why have you never been a judge at a film festival before?"

It stands to reason that Chen Chuan's influence is no less than that of any well-known director in China, and he is the most qualified to be a judge of the film festival. However, Lu Chen has seen the list of judges for each film festival before, and Chen Chuan was not included in any film festival.

The name of Chuan.

"I have always existed as an actor in the film and television industry. Even though I have directed dozens of good film and television dramas, because I have played roles in these film and television dramas, people still think that my main job is an actor. However,

Because I didn’t take on any roles this year, and the films I directed, The Unruly Princess and Westward Journey, were both popular, so my identity as a director was accepted by more people, and the Film and Television Bureau invited me to be a judge.”

In previous years, Chen Chuan basically stood on the podium, so he couldn't be a judge. It was impossible for him to judge himself. But this year is different. This year, he did not take any roles. His identity is only the director, and he has directed several films.

He has not played any roles in movies or TV series.

At this time, Chen Chuan continued: "It's already late September, and there are still about three months left. I don't know if we can finish filming."

Lu Chen roughly estimated the time in his mind, and then said: "If we turn it on as soon as possible, it should be OK."

Chen Chuan smiled and said, "It's not impossible for you to ask me to take over this TV series, but you have to tell me where the script comes from."

Lu Chen replied: "It comes from a website called Sky Script Network. Director Chen, you can search online when you have time. There are many good scripts on it."

Sky Script Network?

Chen Chuan thought for a moment. He seemed to have never heard of this website, but this was normal. There were many websites he had never heard of.

Seeing that Lu Chen still didn't want to admit that he wrote the script, Chen Chuan did not continue to ask, but agreed: "Okay, I will accept your drama. Have you decided on the roles of the male and female protagonists?"

Lu Chen replied: "It's settled."

Chen Chuan asked: "Has it been decided? Are you an artist from Star Culture?"

Lu Chen replied: "No, it's just me and Shi Yin."
