Zhang Xiao had the idea of ​​making a science fiction film when he was filming "Inception". He also spent one million reputation points from the system to purchase a classic science fiction movie script, "Interstellar".

When he was on Earth, director Chris had a work called "Interstellar" that was released in China and received a very high score of 9.3 on a certain website.

But in this world, this movie does not exist. However, every movie has its flaws, and "Interstellar" is no exception.

Because its plot is too lengthy and the screening time is close to three hours, it can easily make people drowsy. Zhang Xiao knew it and would not make this mistake.

So I spent another 500,000 reputation points in the system to forcefully compress the entire movie, making the plot look even more ups and downs.

After the modifications were completed, the system gave a score of 9.5. Zhang Xiao was very satisfied with the movie.

Seeing that Zhang Xiao was determined to create a domestic special effects industry, Liu Haiquan was even more excited and said, "Brother Xiao, don't worry, I will definitely do my best."

Zhang Xiao smiled, raised his cup and said, "Okay, come on, let's drink to the rise of Chinese science fiction movies."

"cheers!"

···

The next day, Zhang Xiao came to the headquarters of Qingtian Entertainment and walked into the office of Chen Ya, Yang Mi's former agent and now the company's CEO.

"Sister Ya, what do you want from me?" Zhang Xiao asked with a smile.

Chen Ya pointed to a script on the table and said, "Let's take a look at this script first."

Zhang Xiao picked up the script and took a look at it, frowned and said, "Is this a military-themed script?"

"That's right!" Chen Ya nodded and said, "The scenes in this script are even grander than those in "Wolf Warrior 2". You will know after reading it."

After hearing this, I immediately became interested, so I picked up the script and sat on the sofa to read it.

Ten minutes later, Zhang Xiao put down the script, looked at Chen Ya and asked, "Who is the director?"

"Director Lin Chao!"

Chen Ya could tell from Zhang Xiao's face that he was already interested in the script, so she answered with a smile.

Zhang Xiao raised his eyebrows and continued to ask: "Is it that awesome guy who photographed the Mekong River last year?"

"That's right!" Chen Ya nodded and said, "jf also attaches great importance to this movie. They really hope that you will play the role of Yang Rui, the captain of the Jiaolong Special Forces."

It seems to be correct.

Although the script did not include the name of the movie, Zhang Xiao still remembered that there was a movie on earth called "Operation Red Sea".

In order to avoid problems, Zhang Xiao still asked: "It is difficult to tell whether a military-themed film is good or bad from the script. I need to know how much investment is involved in this film and who are the other actors?"

"Unlimited investment." Chen Yadao: "Director Lin Chao said that the war scenes only need one word, burning. As for the actors, they are not particularly famous. They have been training for three months and just passed the military examination."

"If that's the case, then take it!" Zhang Xiao nodded and continued: "Yajie, I only have time to shoot two movies this year, this one in the first half of the year, and I will write and direct it in the second half of the year.

I will star in a science fiction movie "Interstellar", and I will use this science fiction movie to hit the world's box office rankings."

After hearing what Zhang Xiao said, Chen Ya was shocked. She looked at him and asked, "Are you sure?"

Zhang Xiao said confidently: "I give the script 9.5 points. As for the final box office, it depends on God's will."

"Okay!" Chen Ya said excitedly: "Then I will fully support you."

After Zhang Xiao agreed to play the role of Yang Rui, the captain of the Jiaolong Special Forces, Chen Ya immediately called director Lin Chao.

"Okay, great, Mr. Chen, with Mr. Zhang as the protagonist, I am sure that "Operation Red Sea" will become the box office champion this year." Lin Chao on the other end of the phone looked very excited.

Zhang Xiao is the well-deserved number one in the domestic film industry. Having him join "Operation Red Sea" has given director Lin Chao a lot of confidence.

Chen Yadao said: "Director Lin, this movie is very dangerous to shoot. I entrust Zhang Xiao's safety to you. This guy is a drama addict. He will risk his life while filming. You must keep an eye on him for me."

"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, Mr. Chen!" Director Lin Chao responded and continued: "By the way, Mr. Chen, when can we sign the contract?"

"This afternoon!" Chen Ya replied.

"No problem! I'll contact the producer right away!" Lin Chao said excitedly.

As a director, Lin Chao is definitely the most excited to be able to sign Zhang Xiao early.

After all, the cast of "Operation Red Sea" is really poor. Apart from Teacher Hai Qing, who is considered a first-line star, Huang Jingyu, Wang Tianyu, Guo Jiahao and others are even more unknown.

Therefore, director Lin Chao had to find a first-line actor who could carry the box office to be the male lead. Originally there were three candidates, namely Zhang Xiao, Wu Jin and Zhang Yi.

As for who will be chosen in the end, it is up to the producers to decide.

After reading the list of three people submitted by Lin Chao, the producers chose Zhang Xiao, the Oscar-winning actor, without hesitation.

But the problem is that no one is sure that they can recruit the number one person in the Chinese entertainment industry. Fortunately, Lin Chao is a thief, so he found a way to get along and pushed the matter of Zhang Xiao's joining to JF.

jf had done "Wolf Warrior 2" for Zhang Xiao once, and she was 100% satisfied with him, so after receiving a call from the Chief of Political Work of the Military Region, Chen Ya did not dare to neglect and quickly called Zhang Xiao over.

That's what happened today.

···

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Chao and six producers' representatives came to Qingtian Entertainment Company. After a heated debate, Chen Ya finally secured a salary of 120 million yuan for Zhang Xiao.

These remuneration will be used as an investment in the film and participate in the share of the total box office.

In the afternoon of the next day, Lin Chao took the leading actors of "Operation Red Sea", Hai Qing, Huang Jingyu, Du Jiang, Jiang Lulu, Wang Tianyu and others, to the Jinbaodao Hotel early.

"Brother Du, will Xiao Shen really come?" Wang Tianyu asked excitedly.

Du Jiang shrugged and said helplessly: "Brother, can we calm down a little bit? This is the nineteenth time you have asked this question."

Wang Tianyu said: "I am mainly too excited. Oh my god, I never thought that I would be filming a movie with Xiao Shen."

Du Jiang smiled bitterly and said: "It's not just you. I didn't expect it, but it's Xiao Shen, the most veritable artist in our country's entertainment industry, the guarantee of TV series ratings and movie box office."
