Being valued by Jiang Cheng in this way filled the young director with motivation and made him determined to make an excellent movie to repay Jiang Cheng's kindness.
As soon as the director started preparations, he was frightened by the huge amount of money.
He didn't know how to spend the entire 1 billion yuan movie budget.
Most directors are worried about insufficient funds for their films, but this one is the only one who is worried about running out of money.
And he also knew that the 1 billion was all for filming, and did not include any special effects or post-production publicity costs.
With this money, he can realize all his ideas, and he will not be unable to shoot what he wants due to lack of funds.
Jiang Cheng also told him to spend money with confidence and never think about saving money for him. If the funds are not enough, he can still ask him for it.
Such huge support made the young director prepare boldly with confidence.
He plans to invite the best actors in the country this time, and he needs all the most famous ones.
Even in the supporting roles, he will cast veterans with superb acting skills, and is preparing to use an all-star lineup.
Not only did he prepare the actors in a very luxurious way, but he also put great effort into the costumes and props.
Just for the costumes used in the performance, he plans to invite famous domestic designers to make them. All kinds of exquisite clothes will appear in the movie.
The scene even sent a large number of people to inspect various places in the country.
Be prepared to find the most beautiful environment to recreate the various magnificent mountains and rivers in the novel.
This director is ready to strive for perfection in all details, even pursuing details to the point of being picky.
However, this kind of pursuit is a necessary condition for making a good movie. Only by shooting with enough care can you get an excellent work.
He wants this film to become an eternal classic and leave a deep mark on the entire history of film.
Whether such an ambition can be realized in the end? It depends on the outcome after the final movie is released.
After Jiang Cheng decided on the director of the movie, he went to work on some of his own things.
He left all matters related to filming the movie to the young director.
Whether it was the choice of actors or the direction of the plot, Jiang Cheng let the director make the decision himself and did not interfere in the filming of the film at all.
At most, they only sent a few financial personnel to follow up on the financial matters under the management of the crew.
Since Jiang Cheng chose to trust the director, he would naturally let him be responsible for everything.
Jiang Cheng doesn't know anything about filming movies, so he won't express his opinions or interfere with the director's filming.
Jiang Cheng never likes to interfere in areas that he has not set foot in. He believes in letting professionals do professional things.
Jiang Cheng doesn't pretend to understand something he doesn't understand. From this point of view, Jiang Cheng can be regarded as the best movie investor.
The power of directors in Yanguo's film industry is far less than that of their foreign counterparts.
They often need to face interference from investors. Generally speaking, investors like to intervene randomly and do things that lay leaders can do well.
Not to mention those actors who were forced in by investors. This kind of thing will happen to all Yanguo directors.
The young director now feels that he is the happiest person because he has met a boss who is willing to spend a lot of money to invest in making movies.
Moreover, this boss never cared about the filming of the movie and let him decide the filming alone.
Jiang Cheng didn't care about the director's filming process. He only had to wait until the filming was completed and hand over the raw materials to Lucy for post-production special effects.
Jiang Cheng has been busy with the laboratory. After a long period of renovation, it is now almost finished. A huge basement has been renovated underground in the laboratory. This is where Jiang Cheng will prepare for security in the future. The place where the fusion reactor is located.
In the future, the laboratory's energy will have to be supplied by reactors. Of course, Jiang Cheng has not yet completed the work on controlled charge fusion.
These are things in the future, and now the laboratory still needs external power supply.
Basically, most of the projects have been completed, and Jiang Cheng will be able to use this new personal laboratory soon.
Although it will be completed soon, Jiang Cheng still has to stay at the construction site.
Because the decoration work of the laboratory is now completed, all that is left is the installation and debugging of experimental equipment and instruments.
However, the work of installing and debugging equipment cannot be taken lightly at all.
These equipments are all very precise. A slight operating error during the installation process may affect the final effect of the equipment.
For some precision experiments, even a small impact can make a huge difference in the experimental results.
Moreover, these things will be used by Jiang Cheng himself in the future, and he will have to adjust the equipment to the best condition according to his own usage habits.
Jiang Cheng has been spending time at the laboratory construction site these days, directing workers to install different machines.
I saw trucks coming all the time, driving directly into the industrial park, and then unloading the equipment inside at the laboratory site.
The machines recently delivered by the car are basically different in size, and the installation requirements for each machine are also different.
Because these devices require special installation and debugging methods, and each of them is basically not universal.
If other people are responsible for installation and debugging, it will be very difficult just to distinguish between different machines, let alone the specific installation methods.
So Jiang Cheng was very busy during this period. All machines had to be installed and debugged under his guidance.
He must pay attention to those workers all the time, otherwise he will be in trouble if something happens.
Jiang Cheng has been working really hard these days. He basically spends very little time sleeping and spends the rest of his time in the laboratory.
However, no matter how hard it is, Jiang Cheng feels it is worth it. After all, this laboratory will be used by him for a long time in the future, so for the smooth future scientific research, Jiang Cheng is willing to spend more energy.
And watching his laboratory being slowly completed is a very happy thing for a scientific research madman like Jiang Cheng.
Being able to have a laboratory like this is something that many people dream of.
Jiang Cheng now has his own high-end laboratory, which makes him much luckier than many scientists.
Many of Jiang Cheng's colleagues had to work with others to share the use of a laboratory.
Time passed slowly, and the progress of laboratory construction continued to accelerate.
Machines with different purposes were installed inside the laboratory, and the originally empty laboratory began to be slowly occupied by those devices.
