Entertainment: God-level Director Starts with Animals

"Director Xiao, feel free to ask what animal you want to borrow, as long as it is available in our zoo, we will definitely lend it to you!"

Cai Xueqing was overjoyed, and quickly patted his chest to assure.

Dongdong became an internet celebrity because he starred in Xiao Yiran's movie, which has brought countless benefits to their zoo.

If Xiao Yiran can once again popularize an animal in their zoo, then they will no longer have to worry about the zoo's income!

"I would like to borrow a silverback gorilla this time, preferably a male orangutan that is strong enough."

Xiao Yiran stated his request, and then asked Cai Xueqing, "I wonder if our zoo has an orangutan that meets my request?"

The reason why Xiao Yiran borrowed such a gorilla was of course for his new movie.

Although "The Fantastic Drifting of the Young Pi" has just been released, Xiao Yiran is already preparing for the next movie.

What he is going to shoot this time is an animal movie that was popular all over the world in his previous life - "King Kong".

Due to the lack of recognition value, Xiao Yiran has not exchanged the script of "King Kong" for the time being, but Xiao Yiran is already preparing for the new movie, such as finding the protagonist in the movie - King Kong.

As the protagonist in the movie, King Kong must be strong and strong, and his body is full of wild temperament. Such an orangutan is actually not easy to find.

If he couldn't find an orangutan that satisfied Xiao Yiran, he could only go to other zoos.

However, the directors of other zoos may not be able to speak as well as Cai Xueqing, and the other party may not be willing to lend the animals, so if possible, Xiao Yiran still hopes to find it here.

"We do have silverback gorillas in our zoo, but I don't know if Fu meets your requirements, Director Xiao."

Cai Xueqing immediately stood up and said, "I'll take you to the orangutan farm to see first!"

After speaking, Cai Xueqing immediately got up and walked out, and Xiao Yiran followed.

The orangutan park is in the southwest corner of the zoo, far from the tiger park.

There are still a lot of tourists here. When Xiao Yiran followed Cai Xueqing to the place, he could see many people surrounding the orangutan farm, taking pictures of it.

"Director Xiao, all the orangutans in our zoo are here. See if you are satisfied."

After walking near the orangutan park, Cai Xueqing pointed to more than [*] orangutans in the park.

The whole orangutan park is surrounded by tempered glass to prevent the orangutans from escaping, and tourists can also clearly see the orangutans who are active inside through these glass.

Xiao Yiran stared at the orangutans in the park and carefully examined them one by one.

These orangutans seemed to be well-fed, but six of them were juveniles, and the other eight were obviously smaller than females, which did not meet Xiao Yiran's requirements.

Among the remaining nine male orangutans, the most conspicuous is a silverback gorilla sitting on the top of the rockery in the park.

This silver-backed gorilla was obviously bigger than other male orangutans, and other male orangutans did not dare to approach it, and all stayed far away from it.

Obviously, this silverback gorilla should be the king of these orangutans.

"It's a pity, a pity..."

Xiao Yiran stared at the silver-backed gorilla for a while, then shook his head helplessly.

"Director Xiao, what's the matter? That orangutan is the strongest in our zoo, are you still not satisfied?"

Hearing Xiao Yiran's words, Cai Xueqing asked with some doubts.

Xiao Yiran had been staring at the strongest orangutan just now. Cai Xueqing thought that Xiao Yiran had taken a fancy to this orangutan, but he didn't know why he shook his head and refused to start.Posted + at *.Say? Group 9?8?0, 2?0, 5║8/5*6, absolutely?

"This orangutan is indeed very strong, and your zoo feeds it very well. But the only pity is that this orangutan should have been raised in the zoo since he was a child, and he is not wild!"

Xiao Yiran said with some regret.

In fact, Dongdong also grew up in a zoo, and it also lacks a kind of wildness.

However, in the setting of the movie, Dongdong should have been a tiger in the zoo, so it is normal to have no wildness.

However, the new movie that Xiao Yiran is going to shoot is different. The King Kong in the movie is a monster who lives on a barren island and has lived a life of preying on the weak since he was a child. How could he not be wild?

From this point of view, these orangutans in the zoo did not meet Xiao Yiran's requirements.

"This……"

Hearing Xiao Yiran's words, Cai Xueqing also scratched his head a little. He thought for a while and suggested, "How about I ask someone to help you get a wild orangutan from Africa?"

As the director of the zoo, Cai Xueqing still has some connections in this regard. It is not difficult for him to get an orangutan over.

"how much time is required?"

Xiao Yiran asked immediately.

"It will take about a month, this is the fastest!"

Cai Xueqing replied after thinking about it.

"A month, that's a long time!"

Xiao Yiran shook his head regretfully, and then said to Cai Xueqing, "Don't bother to be the principal, I'll figure out a way myself!"

After a month, "The Fantastic Drifting of Pi" will be released, and it will be a bit late to make a new movie by then.

Xiao Yiran has too many good movies in his mind, and he doesn't have time to wait for so long.

"OK then!"

Hearing Xiao Yiran's words, Cai Xueqing could only helplessly shake his head, feeling very regretful in his heart.

Now they have an Internet celebrity tiger like Dongdong in their zoo. If there is another orangutan that can be popularized by Xiao Yiran, the popularity of their zoo will definitely rise to a higher level.

But Xiao Yiran didn't look down on the orangutan in their zoo at all, and Cai Xueqing could only give up this plan.

Xiao Yiran went to the Tiger Park to have a look again, and found that it was the same as before, there was still a sea of ​​people, and the entire Tiger Park was impassable.

Xiao Yiran did not go to say goodbye to Dongdong, but turned around and left the zoo.

After returning to the studio, Xiao Yiran told Li Yan that he wanted to borrow an orangutan from the zoo, but couldn't find anything suitable.

"Ah, Mr. Xiao, what are you doing with the orangutan? Are we going to shoot a new movie?"

After listening to Xiao Yiran's remarks, Li Xun asked him with a look of surprise.

The success of the two films, "Total Dog Hachiko" and "The Fantastic Drifting of Young Pi", made Li Yan see the market potential of animal-themed films.

There are very few movies of this type on the market right now, and they're clearly very popular.

If Xiao Yiran is shooting an animal-themed movie, there is still great hope that it will explode again, so Li Xian is very interested in it.

"Yes! I have already conceived a new movie. This time, I will continue to shoot animal-themed movies, and this movie still uses orangutans as the real protagonists!"

Xiao Yiran had no intention of concealing it, and replied calmly to Li Yan.

Although the first two movies are also animal-themed movies, the real protagonists are actually humans.

The movie "King Kong" is a complete subversion. King Kong, the gorilla, is the absolute protagonist in the movie! .

Chapter 074 [*] million to make [*] million, Boss Yang is jealous!

"What's the style of the new movie? Is it a warm and touching style similar to "Hachiko", or a growing-up adventure movie like "Pi's Fantasy Drifting"?"

Li Yan immediately asked excitedly.

The explosion of "Hachiko" and "Fantasy Drifting of Young Pi" before, not only made a lot of money for the studio, but also increased the studio's reputation and status in the entertainment industry.

If Xiao Yiran's new film can still sell well, the studio's position in the entertainment industry will be truly solid.

In the future, when others mention Xiao Yiran's studio, they will no longer be regarded as a no-brainer in the entertainment industry.

"neither!"

After hearing Li Xun's question, Xiao Yiran shook his head and said, "This new movie has a different style from the previous two films, it will completely feature animals as the protagonist, and all the plots will revolve around the protagonist!

And this time is a real super production, the cost will be far more than the previous two movies, the investment is expected to exceed one billion! "

"Ten, one billion? President Xiao, I-I heard right?"

Hearing Xiao Yiran's words, Li Yan was shaken and a little dizzy, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

"The Fantastic Drifting of the Young Pi" is now being released, and the investment is only [*] million yuan, and the investment of "The Loyal Dog Hachiko" is only more than [*] million yuan.

Now that Xiao Yiran's new movie has invested one billion yuan, Li Xian is really scared!

"It's a billion, you heard that right!"

Xiao Yiran's tone was definitely certain.

In Xiao Yiran's previous life, the investment in the movie "King Kong", which was popular all over the world, was as high as 2.5 million US dollars, which has exceeded [*] billion in Xia national currency.

Xiao Yiran has an animal director system. He is sure to reduce the cost of this film by a large part, but it cannot be less than one billion!

"Mr. Xiao, think about it clearly, this is one billion! If the movie fails, our studio may go bankrupt and it won't be able to run!"

Li Xun quickly persuaded Xiao Yiran.

Outsiders only see that making movies can make a lot of money. As a person in the circle, of course Li Dang knows the huge risks of making movies, and there are not a few investors who lose money every year!

From Li Yan's point of view, Xiao Yiran's behavior this time was completely desperate, and it was too risky!

Previously, in order to shoot "The Fantasy Drifting of Pi", all the funds of the studio have been poured into it, and now the studio can't even get [*] million.

Although "Faithful Dog Hachiko" is a big hit at the box office, it would be good if Xiao Yiran's studio could get [*] to [*] million yuan if the share of the theater chain and the publisher, as well as the promotional expenses and various costs paid by Jiaheng Media in the early stage, were removed.

All this money is poured into it, and it is not enough to shoot Xiao Yiran's new film!

In the end, if the box office of the new film suffers a loss, Xiao Yiran's studio may really only go bankrupt.

"Don't worry, I'll find a way to fund it, and it's impossible for a new movie to fail!"

Hearing Li Yan's persuasion, Xiao Yiran said confidently.

It is true that other people's filmmaking has great risks, so it is often necessary to contact many investors and share the risks together.

But Xiao Yiran is different. The movies he is going to shoot are all movies that have been verified by the movie market in previous lives and are guaranteed to sell well!

As long as the movie can be made, there is no need to worry about the loss.

In that case, what should Xiao Yiran worry about?

"This……"

Li Xian didn't know why Xiao Yiran was so confident, but Xiao Yiran had already made a decision, so he couldn't persuade him any more.

Li Xun now also understands Xiao Yiran's character somewhat, knowing that some are before deciding, she can still persuade her.
