At the same time, the conference room of Chenlu Pictures.

Seeing Chen Yan leaving the conference room, Yang Rou was left alone. Lu Man looked around and found that no one noticed her. Like a sneaky little cat, she tiptoed to Yang Rou's side.

Lu Man gently sat down next to Yang Rou. Lu Man smiled "hehe" twice at Yang Rou.

Yang Rou raised her head and glanced at Lu Man expressionlessly.

In the past two days, thanks to Sister Meili's popular science and the word-for-word "publicity" from other employees of the company, Lu Man already knew that Yang Rou was an outstanding gold medal producer.

Faced with such an awesome person, Lu Man always hides his willfulness and pretends to be as well-behaved as possible.

So she looked at Yang Rou with her beautiful eyes and said cautiously, "Sister Rou, can I ask you something?"

Yang Judao, "Say."

Lu Man looked around and found that no one was paying attention, and asked in a low voice, "How much do you think our movie can earn at the box office?"

Hearing someone ask this question again, Yang Rou looked at Lu Man deeply.

Then she replied calmly, as if answering the statement for the first time, "There is no way to predict the box office now."

"The movie is the product of teamwork. Only the script has been determined now. The rest, including the production staff, actors, distribution company, schedule, etc., have not been determined, so we cannot estimate it."

Lu Man pouted, a little unwillingly.

After a moment, she asked again, "What if everything is as normal?"

Yang Rou looked at Lu Man again.

Even though she has a cold temperament and never gossips, at this moment she couldn't help but have an idea: No wonder the boss likes this girl, their personalities are so similar, even the problems are almost the same.

She paused and spoke again to Chen Yan, "If everything is standard configuration. An average director, an average actor, an average distribution company, an average schedule. It could be more than 100 million. That would be enough to protect the capital."

"If you use the best in everything, your acting skills explode, your schedule has a lot of traffic and you have no rivals, and you can advertise and distribute it regardless of the cost, it may be around 300-400 million."

Speaking of this, she added, "However, this is just my inference based on experience. When the film is not completed and we don't know the opponents in the same period, everything is unknown."

Lu Man raised his eyebrows when he heard Yang Rou's judgment.

Actually, under normal circumstances, it’s only 100 million

In this case, how can I explain to Chen Yan?

I was bragging that day, saying I could get a box office of 500 million yuan.

If in the end, there is only 100 million, the capital will be guaranteed.

So how should Chen Yan see himself?

As for what Yang Rou said, if everything is reached to the extreme, the box office can reach three or four billion, Lu Man just listened.

It is impossible to achieve perfection in filmmaking. If nothing else, even if you work hard to improve your acting skills, where can you find the best director, the best lighting, and the best camera?

Even if these can all be done.

But how can I guarantee the schedule and publicity?

You must know that the film industry is the most accident-prone.

Maybe your carefully selected schedule will just happen to encounter a dark horse hit, which will squeeze out all your film schedule.

This is not even something that professionals can predict.

Lu Man felt a little headache.

She wants to make money for Chen Yan

Want to prove myself to Chen Yan

But it seems to be failing

At this time, Chen Yan, who was staying in his office, waited for two full minutes before the content behind the Polaroid photo was finally revealed.

["Twenty-Three Days of Love", a female-themed cinema movie.]

Development cost: around 30 million.

Expected revenue: around 100-400 million.

Project evaluation: An excellent female-themed film. It has the potential to become a masterpiece. However, there are certain requirements for the actors' acting skills and compatibility, so please choose carefully.

Project suggestions: Increase publicity, choose a good schedule, and follow the guidance of professionals.

Overall rating: four stars.

After reading the game's evaluation of this movie, Chen Yan had a new understanding of Yang Rou's abilities.

This woman really has a keen sense for projects.

I don’t know if she has done too many projects or if she is just talented, but her estimated range is indeed very accurate.

But how come the range of expected returns is so wide?

Is it because the project plan only lists a bunch of names and does not identify specific personnel?

Thinking of this, Chen Yan couldn't help but think about it.

So if you try to confirm the list yourself, can you judge who is most suitable for this position through the range changes?

Thinking of this, Chen Yan felt that this idea was right.

He looked through the entire planning book and decided to give it a try starting with the director.

Yang Rou has selected ten directors in total.

Chen Yan picked up the project planning book in his hand and began to try it one by one.

The easy way to try it is to cross out the list of directors and only write the names of the confirmed directors.

The first director’s name is [Feng Jun].

Chen Yan crossed out the names of other directors and wrote his name.

After writing the name, Chen Yan closed the plan and waited patiently with the photos.

Time passes minute by minute.

Just when Chen Yan was getting tired of waiting, suddenly, the words on the back of the photo began to twist and reorganize

After a while, the change ended, and the changed panel appeared in front of Chen Yan.

Nothing else has changed, only the expected return has changed.

[Expected revenue: around 100-110 million.]

Statement:

Co-authoring. Being the first director is almost the lower limit?

Chen Yan silently wrote down this person's name. He decided not to cooperate with this director in the future.

As for the reason?

Well, just say that you don't like his name.

Although he had a "bad start", Chen Yan did not lose heart.

After all, the results of this experiment at least let him know that his method is feasible.

Therefore, he began to constantly change the plan.

Soon, ten minutes passed.

Ten directors were auditioned by Chen Yan one after another.

The director with the lowest box office range is Wang Zijun. [100-110 million].

The highest one is a director named Teng Yufei. With him as a director, the upper limit of box office is 400 million.

This means that he is the director in the optimal plan!

But the amazing thing is that among the ten directors, his qualifications and evaluation are not the highest. He is only ranked in the middle.

At the previous meeting, a director named Yuan, whom everyone was optimistic about, was only ranked second. The upper limit of the box office was 380 million, which was 20 million lower than Teng Yufei.

Chen Yan carefully compared their qualifications and achievements and couldn't see how Teng Yufei was better than Director Yuan.

But games don't lie, so Chen Yan can only think that maybe his directing method is just right for this movie.

There is another strange thing, that is, even though Teng Yufei is so suitable for this movie, he still does not increase the lower limit of the box office. Even the lower limit of the box office for ten directors is the same 100 million.

This made Chen Yan feel a little worried.

Are there any other factors that cause this movie to have such a low ceiling?

But the people chosen by beautiful sister Yang Rou are all elites, so this kind of situation should not happen.

Huh? Are they all elites?

Thinking of this, a figure suddenly popped into Chen Yan's mind.

He thought for a while

I crossed out the name of the heroine [Lu Man], then thought about it, and replaced it with a first-line female star with acting skills who fit the script and character.
