The Birth of the Best Director

Chapter 52 Director Chen Kaige, what do you think?
……

The interior of this private jet is decorated a bit like a chess and card room at home. I guess the owner of the private jet likes to play cards.

"Ayuan!"

"Ayuan!"

Liu Shishi and Jing Tian, ​​coincidentally, saw Lu Zhiyuan sitting by the window, called out to him in a delicate voice, and wanted to go forward at the same time.

But they bumped into each other accidentally.

The two looked at each other, and there seemed to be sparks flashing in the air!
But the war did not break out immediately. Both of them held back and sat down next to Lu Zhiyuan very reservedly, one on the left and one on the right, and lifted him up.

"Brother, thank you for your hard work!"

"It's been more than ten hours on this journey, it's going to be tough!"

Xin Yukun saw from the back row that these two men had no moral principles and surrounded them from both sides.

Lu Zhiyuan looked to the left and it was not the right. Along the way, he could only look straight ahead.

Just thinking about it makes my head tingle.

But Lu Zhiyuan, who was sandwiched in the middle, remained calm. He took out a piece of paper and a pen from his bag and began to scribble.

But after a while, Liu Shishi and Jing Tian were attracted by the person in the painting.

"Ayuan, who is this?"

After a few minutes, the figures in the picture gradually took shape.

She is a beautiful woman.

Her facial features are straight, her eyes are big and bright, and her eyelashes are thick, giving her a pure and bright look.

The deep facial features with a slightly mixed-race feel, combined with the soft oriental face, form a unique "sweet and spicy" temperament, which has both the mystery of the Western Regions and the oriental charm.

The most important thing is that this girl has super big eyes!

Jing Tian couldn't help but cry out inwardly, "Oh no!"

"Her name is Reba, she's 17 years old, and she's the heroine of our next movie!"

Lu Zhiyuan turned his head to look at Jing Tian and explained briefly.

"So it's her!"

Jing Tian understood instantly. He stared at Reba's portrait for a long time and murmured, "This is the heroine you chose from thousands of people after flying 3000 kilometers. She is indeed unique."

Reba is indeed very beautiful.

Most importantly, the eyes are super big!
Jing Tian originally thought that her eyes were big enough, but she never expected that there is always someone stronger than you!

Lu Zhiyuan did not lie to her.

He does like big eyes!
But she is not the only girl with big eyes!

"The heroine of the next movie..."

Liu Shishi heard this and muttered to herself, her expression dark and gloomy, her entire face almost swallowed up by dark shadows.

Yesterday, she was still the focus of everyone's attention. As the heroine of the Cannes Palme d'Or film, she enjoyed a media interview with Lu Zhiyuan, shining like a star.

However, today, she, the heroine, has abdicated.

It turns out that everything is over.

She has become a thing of the past.

This guy has found a new love!

Moreover, the heroine was so beautiful that she lost her confidence.

Realizing this, Liu Shishi felt sad and couldn't help wanting to cry.

……

Half an hour later.

Lu Zhiyuan focused on his work and finally finished drawing the look of Reba.

Liu Shishi and Jing Tian, ​​who were originally crowded next to him, have already dispersed.

Xin Yukun reappeared beside him, took a look, and couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Ayuan, where did you find the heroine?"

"It's amazing!"

"Can a real person look like this?"

“It feels so sci-fi!”

"No wonder you wanted her to be the heroine of 'Upgrade'!"

Looking at the Reba in the painting, Lu Zhiyuan designed a hairstyle for her that is the same as the Empress Hancock in "One Piece".

What does it mean to be stunning at first sight?
This is!
Xin Yukun stared at the portrait intently.

His eyes were even a little burning.

"Ayuan, this girl will definitely be famous. She will be a cash cow."

After filming the movie "Maze of the Heart", Xin Yukun gradually discovered that his visual aesthetics could not keep up with Lu Zhiyuan at all.

During the filming process, he could only help with odd jobs.

Moreover, Lu Zhiyuan won the Palme d'Or for his first film. His talent and ability as a director are beyond doubt.

No matter how hard he tries, he will never be able to catch up in this life.

But behind every successful man, there must be... a brother who helps him solve problems, takes care of all the chores, and never betrays him.

In addition, these days, he chatted with Mr. Cai from Tangren for a while and found that the money-making model in the entertainment industry seemed to have changed a bit.

The traditional production model has a very low profit margin. Even if the revenue is high, it doesn’t make much money.

On the contrary, the brokerage business is very promising.

As long as they could unearth a top star, it would be like a treasure trove, with endless money flowing in. "Ayuan, when you're filming, I'll be your assistant, but when you're not, I think we should get a part-time job to make some extra money."

"For example, start a brokerage business."

"I've consulted Mr. Cai from Tangren. He says we don't need to sign too many artists. As long as we can find a gold mine, it will be enough for us brothers to live a life of luxury for several years."

Obviously, although Reba is not a gold mine yet, she has the potential to become one.

In addition, Lu Zhiyuan’s portraits are super beautiful and he has the ability to turn stones into gold.

This business is very promising!

Later, Lu Zhiyuan made films and made several amateurs famous.

He relied on his connections and his shameless ability to navigate the world of fame and fortune to turn these people into superstars and provide them with a steady stream of money.

It is entirely possible to form a closed business loop.

"Brother Kun, your idea is great, but I don't understand these operations, and I don't have that much energy."

"Brother, it's okay if you don't understand. I don't understand either. But I can find someone to teach me. If that doesn't work, we can hire an agent to help us with these things."

Nowadays, Lu Zhiyuan’s signboard is very effective.

If he wants to develop an agency business in the company, there will probably be a lot of agents who will jump over with their artists.

After all, he can bring top resources.

For those young stars who want to go further, top-level resources are scarcer than gold.

"Ayuan, you don't want the female star you made famous to become someone else's wedding dress, right? What if this little girl signed with a rip-off agency and came to you crying later, you wouldn't have the heart to do that, right?"

I know that apart from being interested in making movies and winning first place, Lu Zhiyuan doesn't care about other trivial matters.

Xin Yukun could only take action against Lu Zhiyuan's conscience.

Although Lu Zhiyuan looks cold, he is actually a kind person.

"Okay, I agree."

Lu Zhiyuan thought about it and agreed, adding, "Also, after the copyright of "Heart Labyrinth" is divided, I will first give you a dividend of 2000 million. You can handle the rest of the money."

The copyright of "Maze of the Heart" was sold for 1000 million US dollars in Europe and the United States.

After a 50-50 split with Starry Sky, their company will receive 5 million US dollars. After deducting various taxes, the total amount received will be about 30 million RMB.

In addition, the Yanjing Municipal Government will provide approximately 300 million in rewards for the International A-Class Award.

This time, they made a lot of money!
“2000!!!”

"Ayuan, what do you want so much money for? I know that most people can't grasp it when they suddenly become rich. You must not learn bad habits."

When Xin Yukun heard that Lu Zhiyuan wanted to share 2000 million first, he almost jumped up.

I just want to hire Fan Bingbing to play with me for a few months, but it doesn’t cost that much money, right?

Besides, international directors like them, when they go out to play with female celebrities, do they have to pay? It’s good enough that they don’t let the other party pay for it!

At this moment, Xin Yukun's voice also attracted the attention of Jing Tian and Liu Shishi.

The two of them were not far from each other, but they just didn't want to see Lu Zhiyuan drawing other women. It felt like they were being raped in front of them.

"We can't always live together. I think Dongshan Villa is pretty good. I want to buy a house and settle down in Yanjing."

As soon as Lu Zhiyuan said this, Liu Shishi was overjoyed!

Dongshan Villa!
He wants to buy Dongshan Villa!

Just two days ago, she asked Lu Zhiyuan how good the Dongshan Villa was. Now, Lu Zhiyuan wanted to buy it when he returned!
What does this mean?
He also said that he wanted to settle down in Yanjing?
He is not from Yanjing, so where can he settle down?

It must be for me!
Jing Tian, ​​who was standing on the other side, had similar thoughts in her mind. She felt that she had misunderstood Lu Zhiyuan. The little girl named Reba was only 17 years old and had only known Lu Zhiyuan for a short time.

Lu Zhiyuan doesn't seem like the kind of heartless person.

Moreover, Brother Kun had told her before that their company was not short of money, but Lu Zhiyuan himself was short of money. As long as he got that girl, he would buy a house, get married, and have children.

Lu Zhiyuan is already prepared for the first step of buying a house.

As for getting married?

You must be waiting for me!

Wait until I graduate from college!

……

When the "Heart Labyrinth" team was helping Lu Zhiyuan discuss on the plane how to decorate the house in Dongshan Villa after it was purchased and how many guest rooms should be left?

Who to live for?
How many children will you have in the future?
At the same time, the domestic media was in an uproar.

When they learned that new director Lu Zhiyuan had won the Palme d'Or, they immediately ran to the home of famous director Chen Kaige.

Before Lu Zhiyuan, Chen Kaige's "Farewell My Concubine" was the only domestic film to win the Palme d'Or.

They wanted to hear how Chen Kaige felt at the moment.

If you could hear Chen Kaige swearing, there would be no shortage of topics for the next month.

Chen Kaige has just returned to China.

Some time ago, his film "Mei Lanfang" was also screened and promoted in Cannes.

However, he did not attend the final awards ceremony.

When Chen Kaige learned that Lu Zhiyuan's "Labyrinth of the Heart" actually won the Palme d'Or.

To be honest, he was very surprised!
Even my head felt a little dizzy.

After coming to his senses, he realized... From now on, Xiaolu, you have to sit at the same table with me!

Just now, Chen Kaige went out for a stroll, but was blocked on the road by a large number of reporters who came after hearing the news.

"Director Chen, what do you think of Lu Zhiyuan's film "The Heart Labyrinth" winning the Palme d'Or?"
