Chapter 889 "Westward Journey" is completed
But, a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise. I have a new project here that I think is very suitable for you. Are you interested in coming over to chat? ”
Lin Gao was stunned. He didn't expect that in this situation, someone would actually ask him for cooperation.
He was already discouraged and ready to give up his film career, but Director Zhang's call was like a life-saving straw, rekindling the hope in his heart.
"Director Zhang, you...are you telling the truth?" Lin Gao's voice was trembling.
"Of course it's true! When did I lie to you? How about it, are you interested?" Director Zhang smiled heartily.
"Yes! Of course there is!" Lin Gao said excitedly, "I'll go find you right now!"
After hanging up the phone, Lin Gao immediately changed his clothes and went out in high spirits.
Wang Yuyan looked at his leaving figure with a happy smile on her face.
She knew that Lin Gao was back again, that high-spirited filmmaker was back!
After meeting Director Zhang, Lin Gao couldn't wait to ask: "Director Zhang, what is the new project you are talking about?"
Director Zhang smiled mysteriously and handed him a script.
"Look at this first."
Lin Gao took the script and saw five big characters written on the cover: "A Westward Journey".
""Westward Journey"?"
Lin Gao read it again in confusion, "What story is this?"
Director Zhang explained: "This is a love story, a love story about the Supreme Treasure and Fairy Zixia."
Lin Gao opened the script and read it quickly. The more he read, the more exciting it became. He seemed to have seen a brand new world, a world full of magic.
"How's it going? Are you interested?" Director Zhang asked.
"Yes! So much!"
Lin Gao said excitedly, "This script is great! I must film it!"
"Okay! I knew you would like it!"
Director Zhang smiled and said, "However, the investment in this project is huge. I can't afford it by myself. I need to find several partners."
Lin Gao said without hesitation: "No problem! I know a few investors and I can help you contact them."
"That would be great!"
Director Zhang patted Lin Gao on the shoulder and said, "I believe we can make this movie a classic!"
As a result, Lin Gao began to prepare intensively for the filming of "Westward Journey".
He found his previous team and reorganized the crew.
Due to the previous fire incident, Lin Gao became more cautious. He paid special attention to the safety work on the set and arranged a dedicated person to be responsible for fire safety to ensure that similar accidents would not happen again.
After several months of intense filming, "Westward Journey" has finally been completed.
On the day of the premiere, the seats were packed.
When the movie ended and the lights came on, there was silence.
It took a while before someone reacted and started to applaud. The applause became louder and louder and lasted for a long time.
"It's wonderful!"
"This movie is great!"
"Director Lin, you are a genius!"
……
Praises came one after another, and Lin Gao stood on the stage with a bright smile on his face.
He succeeded! He once again proved his strength!
However, just as he was enjoying the joy of success, a discordant voice suddenly sounded.
"What is this movie about? I can't understand it!"
A film critic stood up and said loudly, "The plot is messy, the relationships between the characters are unclear, it is simply a bad movie!"
His words were like a bomb that exploded in the crowd.
"Yes! I don't think it looks good either!"
"What is this movie about?"
"Waste of my time and money!"
There were more and more voices of opposition, and the originally lively scene suddenly became noisy.
Lin Gao's smile froze on his face. He didn't expect that the movie he shot so carefully would receive such bad reviews.
He looked at the angry audience in the audience, feeling full of grievance and confusion.
"What...what the hell is going on?" he murmured to himself.
At this moment, Wang Yuyan walked up to him and gently held his hand. "Mr. Lin, don't listen to their nonsense. I believe this movie will become a classic!"
Lin Gao looked at the gentle woman in front of him and felt a little comfort in his heart.
"Wang Yuyan...thank you..."
"No need to thank me,"
Wang Yuyan smiled, "I believe in you, just like I believe in Duan Yu..."
"Duan Yu..."
Lin Gao suddenly thought of something, and his eyes became deep, "You... do you really know him?"
Wang Yuyan did not answer, but showed a mysterious smile.
At this moment, a man wearing black clothes and sunglasses suddenly appeared in front of Lin Gao.
He took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of cold eyes.
"Lin Gao, someone wants to see you."
Lin Gao's heart tightened, and he felt an ominous premonition...
The man in black repeated: "Lin Gao, someone wants to see you."
His tone was unquestionable, with a cold sense of oppression.
Lin Gao took a deep breath and tried to stay calm. "Who wants to see me?"
The man in black didn't answer, but just made a "please" gesture.
Lin Gao hesitated for a moment, and finally followed the man in black out of the screening room.
Wang Yuyan wanted to follow, but was stopped by the man in black.
"Sorry, miss, you can't go in."
Wang Yuyan shouted anxiously: "Mr. Lin! You have to be careful!"
Lin Gao looked back at her, his eyes full of worry.
He vaguely felt that he was about to face a huge crisis.
The man in black took Lin Gao to a luxurious box.
There was a man sitting in the box, with his back to Lin Gao, and his face could not be seen clearly.
"Are you Lin Gao?"
The man's voice was low and hoarse, as if it came from hell.
Lin Gaoqiang calmed down, "It's me. Are you..."
The man slowly turned around, revealing a face full of anger.
There was a hideous scar on his face, extending from his forehead to his chin, which looked particularly terrifying.
"It doesn't matter who I am,"
The man sneered, "The important thing is, I know who you are."
Lin Gao's heart sank. "You...what do you want to do?"
The man stood up, walked to Lin Gao, and looked at him condescendingly.
"I want to negotiate a business deal with you."
"Business?" Lin Gao looked at him doubtfully.
"That's right,"
The man nodded, "I know you are very talented and have made many excellent movies. I hope you can make a movie for me."
Lin Gao frowned.
"What movie?"
The man's lips curved into an evil smile.
"A movie... that will ruin your reputation."
Lin Gao immediately understood what the man meant.
He wants to use himself and make a movie to discredit himself!
"Don't even think about it!" Lin Gao roared.
The man smiled nonchalantly.
"Really? Then you have to think clearly. If you don't agree, I guarantee you will regret it."
