Chapter 452: Chapter 430: Owing You a First_1 Please continue reading on ΒOXΝʘVEL.ϹΟM . Lin Yuan didn’t immediately start writing his novel. Before his body fully recovered, he tried his best to avoid staying up late. Seeing that it was getting late, he freshened up, then happily lay down on his bed and casually checked his chat group on his phone. There were only four people in the group chat. Lin Yuan, Xia Fan, Jian Yi, and his older sister. There weren’t many messages, Lin Yuan randomly scrolled through them, soon reaching the top. The last message was from Xia Fan: “Pity we ended up at number eight, we released it a bit late.” Below was a screenshot of the final seasonal ranking for “Fairytale Town”. Since “Fairytale Town” was released on the last day of January, there was no time left to move up in the rankings. Nevertheless, the eighth-place finish was considered exceptional result. You have to consider that other people climbed the rankings for a whole thirty days, while “Fairytale Town” only had one day. Then came Jian Yi’s words of comfort: “You’ve already made it big, look at me, still auditioning in various drama groups.” Then, his sister messaged Jian Yi: “Go to Lin Yuan’s production crew.” Jian Yi replied: “Isn’t that what I’m trying to do, be like Xia Fan and stand on my own two feet? Although, that might be difficult, I might go and join up with Lin Yuan.” (vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display("vi_765923973")}) Xia Fan was indeed someone who depended on himself. Lin Yuan only gave him a song, “Initial Dream”, in the early days. Add the recent “Fairytale Town”, and he only gave him two songs in total. Lin Yuan asked Xia Fan if he needed help multiple times, but Xia Fan refused each time, so Lin Yuan didn’t bring it up again. However, now he had a legitimate reason to help. He directly messaged Xia Fan: “Next time, we’ll take first place.” Immediately after, Lin Yuan messaged Jian Yi. He paused for a moment, left the group chat, and sent a direct message to Jian Yi: “If you have time, let’s make a movie together.” Jian Yi quickly replied: “Are you trying to save my reputation?” Lin Yuan replied with a simple “umm”. Jian Yi, “…” Are you really saying these things? Okay, that’s a typical Lin Yuan move. But Jian Yi’s heart must be a bit touched, “What kind of film are you trying to shoot? I can’t act in all kinds of movies.” Lin Yuan didn’t pay much attention to his friend’s aloofness and told him the truth: “I haven’t thought of it yet.” Jian Yi: “Alright, at least give me a third male lead… Eh, the fourth is fine too, but four sounds bad, how about the fifth male lead?” Lin Yuan chuckled. The fifth male lead in a movie was basically an unimportant supporting role. Lin Yuan was a rational person, but he was not necessarily rational when it came to friends and family. “First male lead.” Lin Yuan decisively declared. The other end was suddenly silent. It took a long time before Jian Yi replied, “First male lead is okay too, isn’t there an MV for the singer’s new song? I can be the first male lead.” “It’s a movie.” Lin Yuan insisted. This time Jian Yi didn’t pause for long, “I can’t do it.” Lin Yuan replied, “No problem, I have experience. I’ll contact you later. Remember to report to the set.” After saying that, Lin Yuan didn’t bother with Jian Yi anymore. Of course, he knew why Jian Yi was being hesitating. He was simply afraid that he, being a newcomer, would hold back his movie. But Lin Yuan had his own methods. He had the system tool. Even if Jian Yi’s acting skills were really bad, he could still help him improve. Moreover, Jian Yi studied acting. His grades in all his professional courses have always been amongst the best. His acting skills can’t possibly be bad. As for the problem of the lack of reputation of a newcomer… This is actually not a problem. When Lin Yuan filmed “Flirting Scholar”, the lead actor, He Sheng, was also a newcomer. Lin Yuan won’t use films like “Hachiko” to promote Jian Yi, because another such film would require a great actor for a lead role. But some films can be acted by newcomers, and some might even be more favourable with younger actors. … Having decided to find a movie that was suited to Jian Yi, Lin Yuan called out the system, “This film cannot be randomly customized.” Lin Yuan was not confident about what the system might randomly generate. The system chimed a response: “You can choose from the film library. Once disconnected, the memory will disappear.” “Okay.” Lin Yuan’s thinking instantaneously connected to the system’s film library. It felt as if he had entered a mysterious world as countless film information appeared in his mind. “How about this one?” Suddenly, Lin Yuan’s gaze locked onto a film. The cover of the film was a man, at least based on his physique. He was dressed in a red tight-fitting suit covered in black grids. His head was wrapped in a mask, with the eye area primarily white – Spiderman! If you want to promote someone, don’t bother with artsy films, but commercial blockbusters. Can any blockbuster be more successful than Marvel’s series? Not to mention the famous Spiderman. This is definitely one of Marvel’s classic series! However, there are many versions of Spiderman movies. The version that Lin Yuan had his eyes on was the first generation of Spiderman, which mainly relied on mutations to fight. “Actually, ‘Venom’ also…” Lin Yuan shook his head. Let’s give Spiderman to Jian Yi. The leading actor of Venom needs to appear more down and out. Jian Yi suits Spiderman better because of his tender and young face. “Start customizing!” Lin Yuan spoke up. This time he didn’t ask about the price. In fact, he hardly ever asked about the price recently. It’s not that he didn’t care. He just didn’t want to experience the feeling of a painful expenditure. As long as I don’t ask the price, I can pretend that I’m not spending money. This is Lin Yuan’s theory because with the balance on his card, it would make no difference if the system deducts a portion of the fee. “Customizing for you.” The system directly entered the script customization mode. About a few minutes later, the customization was complete, and the script for “Spiderman” appeared in Lin Yuan’s mind. The plot seemed to be mainly based on the first generation of Spiderman, but the system made minor modifications. For instance, in the original world, there were various countries, but now Blue Star didn’t have countries, only continents. In order to accommodate this point, the system cancelled the concept of countries in the movie. Additionally. The first-generation spiderman had the ability to rush out silks from veins, which was too powerful. Therefore, the script slightly adjusted this ability… Hm? Looking at the end, Lin Yuan realized that there were references to other superheroes in the script, which gave him a hint for his next Marvel film. Jian Yi didn’t have much reputation. But Jian Yi was only 22 this year. Spiderman shouldn’t be performed by someone too old. The first generation Spiderman was generally fine, but his age seemed a little off. The Spiderman series had been filmed for many years, and the face of many actors showed obvious signs of aging. Lin Yuan definitely wanted to avoid this. Because Lin Yuan was very clear… Once the trend of Marvel series has started, he might not just make one film, he might consider other superhero films as well. Of course, it’s still too early to think about that. Lin Yuan planned to talk with Ol’ Zhou about the script tomorrow. The investment for this film will significantly be larger than before.
