The entertainment empire began with Liu Yifei's premarital pregnancy.

"This Lin Bufan is just my type!"

Jiang Wen looked at the interview video of Lin Bufan on the computer and laughed heartily a few times: "I think he and I can definitely become friends."

Anyway, for Jiang Wen, he would support anyone who stepped on Lu Chuan's foot, no matter who it was.

"And you've become friends? He's an Oscar-winning director and the boss of Kyoto Entertainment." Zhou Yun rolled her eyes at Jiang Wen and sat down next to her, heavily pregnant.

"You're heavily pregnant now, be careful."

Jiang Wen glanced at his wife, then said, "I don't think Lin Bufan is that kind of person. We should definitely meet him next time we have the chance..."

Thinking of this, Jiang Wen's gaze involuntarily fell on a novel on the table, "The Tale of the Thief Official," written by Ma Shitu.

He had wanted to adapt this novel into a movie for a long time, but he hadn't had the chance to do so yet.

Perhaps I can wait until I adapt this novel into a movie and then seek investment from Kyoto Animation.

"However, there's another way. 'The Sun Also Rises' will be released in September. He can invite Lin Bufan to the premiere..."

It's settled then!

……

Lin Bufan, on the other hand, didn't care at all about the consequences his interview might have on Lu Chuan. He was focused on filming the movie "How Long Will I Love U".

"Boss, the set and props are all ready, and we can start filming at any time."

Inside the office, Bai Bing held up some documents and reported to Lin Bufan.

The movie "How Long Will I Love U" doesn't feature many changes in its setting, and the props aren't particularly elaborate, after all, it's just a romance film.

"Notify all crew members that filming will begin tomorrow!"

Lin Bufan nodded slightly and set a time.

"Yes, boss!"

Bai Bing took out a pen and paper to jot down some notes, then looked up at Lin Bufan: "Boss, should we hold a press conference to mark the start of filming?"

"No need!"

Lin Bufan waved his hand.

The main purpose of a press conference held before filming begins is to promote the film.

But does Lin Bufan need it?

For him, this so-called launch event was completely unnecessary.

It's not that he's arrogant; it's just that, within mainland China, as long as Lin Bufan's movies are promoted and people know about them, those who want to see them will naturally go directly to the cinema.

This is the reputation that Lin Bufan built with "Love is Not Blind" and "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate".

Moreover, he believes that as he makes more and more films in the future, this reputation will become even more solidified.

When the time comes, we won't need any other publicity. Just the five words "Director Lin's new movie is being released" will be the best publicity.

"Yes, boss!"

……

The next day, on the set of "How Long Will I Love U", Lin Bufan had not yet arrived, but the main actors Deng Chao and Jing Tian, ​​as well as Sun Yiyi, Yu Hewei, Fan Ming, Tao Hong, Yuan Shanshan and others had already arrived.

After arriving at the film set, everyone began to look at their own scripts.

For some people, especially Deng Chao, Jing Tian, ​​Yu Hewei, Fan Ming, Tao Hong, and Yuan Shanshan, this was their first time working with Lin Bufan.

In their eyes, Lin Bufan was an internationally renowned director, and his standards would certainly be very high. They didn't want to be scolded by the director on the first day of filming.

Especially for Jing Tian, ​​a newcomer, she knows all too well how she got the female lead role.

Since receiving the script, Jing Tian has practically immersed herself in it, even dreaming about how to play the role of Gu Xiaojiao well.

On the contrary, Sun Yiyi, who had worked with him before, understood Lin Bufan better.

They knew that Lin Bufan was actually a relatively easy-going director, provided that they didn't anger him. Otherwise, they had seen him yell at people on set before.

Of course, Sun Yiyi will not underestimate the opportunity to work with Director Lin just because she knows these things.

Even though he is an artist signed with Kyoto Entertainment, he cherishes every opportunity to work with Director Lin on a film. Every opportunity is a chance for him to refresh his resume.

"We've all arrived!"

About half an hour later, Lin Bufan arrived at the film set and saw the actors, all of whom were immersed in the script, and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

It's no wonder he deliberately arrived late; Gao Yuanyuan was just too clingy.

He had already gotten up very early in the morning, but Gao Yuanyuan also got up so early and tempted him so early that he ended up doing some morning exercise before rushing to the film set.

"Director Lin!"

Upon seeing Lin Bufan arrive, the group quickly stood up.

"You guys continue reading the script!"

Lin Bufan nodded to the group, then led Bai Bing into the studio, called over the props and lighting equipment, and gave them some instructions.

Half an hour had passed by the time all the props and lights were in place.

"Today is the first day of filming, and the scenes are all very simple, so everyone can relax!"

Lin Bufan called the actors over and said with a relaxed smile.

"Yes, Director!"

Deng Chao, Jing Tian, ​​and the others hurriedly responded.

For Lin Bufan, it might seem easy, but for them, it might not seem easy either.

What a joke! When filming, even for the simplest shot, you can't afford to be careless. Otherwise, if the director sees that you have to shoot such a simple shot several times, that would be terrible.

"Alright, lights and props all ready. We'll start filming in five minutes!"

Lin Bufan waved his hand, signaling the actors to leave first, and then sat behind the monitor to make adjustments.

Five minutes passed quickly.

"Action!"

Lin Bufan sat behind the monitor, holding a walkie-talkie in his hand.

Since today was the first day of filming, Lin Bufan only filmed some simple shots, mainly focusing on Deng Chao's scenes.

As for Jing Tian's role, Lin Bufan gave it some consideration.

After all, she was a newcomer, and given her acting skills, well, Lin Bufan decided to let her get used to the crew first, and then start filming her scenes a few days later.

This movie wasn't actually difficult to film, and apart from Jing Tian, ​​everyone else's acting was solid.

And just like that, a week passed in the blink of an eye, and the filming was progressing well. Almost all the actors were fully immersed in their roles, with only one exception: Jing Tian, ​​who hadn't filmed a single scene yet.

However, although Jingtian hasn't filmed a single scene yet, she has been watching everyone filming on set for the past few days, and she can't help but get into character.

While filming other people's scenes, Lin Bufan also kept an eye on Jing Tian. Seeing her condition, he felt a little relieved.

For Lin Bufan, the biggest challenge in this movie was actually Jing Tian.

If her scenes can be filmed well, the movie will be a success.
