Chapter 856 What other ideas do you have about this project
At that moment, Lin Gao felt an unprecedented sense of honor.
Not only did he participate in a world-class film event, he also contributed to the future of film art.
After the Cannes Film Festival, Lin Gao returned to China with full harvest.
Although the schedule was tight, this experience gave him a deeper understanding of film art.
Every film that competes in Cannes and every discussion with the jury has invisibly enriched his film concepts.
As soon as he got off the plane, his cell phone rang.
It was Kevin calling.
"Lin, are you happy?"
There was a hint of relief in Kevin's voice.
"I heard you did very well in Cannes."
Lin Gao smiled.
“I really gained a lot this time.”
"How's it going over there?"
Kevin's tone suddenly became serious.
"It's going well on my end, but we need to speed it up."
"I plan to invite you to Los Angeles to meet with the team and discuss the next stage of cooperation."
Lin Gao thought for a moment.
"This is no problem, but I still have some work to deal with here."
"I can go there in a week."
Kevin looked satisfied.
"Great, I will arrange everything for you as soon as possible."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Gao glanced out the window.
He knew that this cooperation would be another huge leap in his career.
Kevin invited him to Los Angeles, apparently hoping to discuss the specifics of the international project in more depth.
This means that Lin Gao will have the opportunity to directly participate in the world's top-produced film projects.
However, Lin Gao knew in his heart that although the opportunity was good, the pressure was also great.
International projects involve the collision of cultures, histories, and interests of multiple countries, and every step must be taken very carefully.
As soon as Lin Gao walked out of the airport, Wei Lianlian was already waiting for him outside.
"Director Lin, how does it feel to return to China?"
she asked with a smile, handing him a bottle of water.
“It’s pretty good, the domestic air is good.”
Lin Gao joked, took the water and took a sip.
"However, I may have to fly out again next."
Wei Lianlian was a little surprised.
"So fast?"
"Kevin invited me to Los Angeles, where his project has entered a critical stage."
Wei nodded repeatedly.
"Then do we need to adjust the itinerary first?"
Lin Gao thought for a while.
"That's right."
"I still have some work to take care of, and I'll be going to Los Angeles within a week."
In the next few days, Lin Gao was busy dealing with various projects at hand.
He knew that going to Los Angeles meant that he would not be able to personally oversee the progress of domestic projects for a period of time.
Therefore, during these days, he arranged all important decisions in advance to ensure that the team could operate independently in his absence.
Time passed quickly and Lin Gao boarded a flight to Los Angeles.
When the plane landed, it was already evening local time.
Kevin came to pick him up personally.
"Lin, welcome to Los Angeles."
Kevin smiled and patted Lin Gao on the shoulder.
"Are you ready for our new collaboration?"
Lin Gao smiled and nodded.
"Of course, I can't wait."
Kevin took Lin Gao to a high-end hotel, which was specially arranged for the entire production team.
"You can have a good rest tonight, we will have a brief meeting tomorrow morning."
"The main thing is to let you get familiar with the team members." Lin Gao was not surprised by this.
For an international film project, the cooperation of team members is crucial.
He has long been accustomed to this efficient working mode.
The next day, Lin Gao got up early and prepared the materials needed for the meeting.
Kevin took him to the project's production headquarters, a modern office building.
In the conference room, the core members of the team have been waiting for a long time.
"Lin, this is Andrew, he is responsible for the revision and coordination of the script."
Kevin introduced.
"This is Emilia, our historical consultant, making sure all the historical details in the film are accurate."
Lin Gao shook hands with them one by one, secretly recognizing the professional background of these people.
Everyone on the team is a top talent in their respective fields.
This makes Lin Gao full of confidence in the future of this project.
After the meeting began, Kevin introduced the current progress of the project in detail.
"We have completed the preliminary draft of the script, but the historical and cultural aspects of East Asia need to be further optimized."
"Lin, I hope you can provide some suggestions, especially on the cultural details of the Chinese part."
Lin Gao nodded.
“Of course, I will make sure these details are accurate.”
Andrew continued: "The historical span in the movie is very large, and we need to allow the audience to understand the conflict and integration between different civilizations in a short period of time."
"This is a challenge for the structural design of the script."
Lin Gao looked at the outline on the screen and put forward his own ideas.
"I think we can use several key historical events as the main line."
"Let these events connect the interactions between different civilizations."
Emilia nodded.
"That's a good idea."
"Showing it through events not only allows the audience to quickly understand it, but also enhances emotional resonance."
Kevin looked satisfied.
"Lin, your thinking is very clear."
"I will ask the team to adjust the script immediately and make changes according to your suggestions."
After the meeting, Lin Gao and Kevin walked out of the conference room and came to a spacious lounge.
The two of them sat on the sofa, drinking coffee, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
"Lin, do you have any other ideas about this project?"
Kevin asked, obviously attaching great importance to Lin Gao's opinion.
Lin Gao thought for a while.
"I think we can dig deeper into the conflicts and contradictions between civilizations."
“Don’t just stop at the surface.”
"This will allow the audience to better understand the complexity behind these historical events."
Kevin nodded.
"Indeed, our goal is not only to tell history, but also to convey a deeper thought through these historical events."
"You're right, conflict and fusion are the heart of the story."
In the next few days, Lin Gao and his team continued to adjust and improve the script.
Every detail has been carefully polished.
Lin Gao not only ensures that the historical and cultural aspects of China are accurate, but also assists in the cultural expression of other parts.
The complexity of the project exceeded his initial imagination.
But Lin Gao felt very fulfilled.
This is a collaboration between the world's top filmmakers, everyone working towards a common goal.
And Lin Gao knew that what he was doing went far beyond the movie itself.
This is a cultural dissemination and exchange.
A week later, the first draft of the script was finally finalized.
Kevin invited the whole team to celebrate.
"Lin, I want to thank you very much."
Kevin raised his glass and paid tribute to Lin Gao.
