After the dinner with Gulinaza, Lin Ran did not return to the dormitory.

Instead, he went to the office to find Wang Haiyi.

"Lin Ran, what's the matter?"

Wang Haiyi was preparing lessons. When he saw Lin Ran coming to the door, he asked

"Teacher Wang, I would like to ask you to help me contact two actors."

Lin Ran got straight to the point.

"Contact an actor?

Wang Haiyi was stunned for a moment and asked doubtfully:"Are you an actor in a graduation film?" You haven't even started writing the script yet, so there's no need to find actors so early, right?"

"I have been conceiving a script for more than two years and the script has been written."

Lin Ran explained without blushing or heartbeat.

Wang Haiyi had no doubt about this. As a student of the directing department, it is normal to conceive of scripts.

"Did you bring the script? Let me help you take a look"

"I brought a USB flash drive."

Lin Ran immediately handed the USB flash drive to Wang Haiyi.

Wang Haiyi also graduated from Nortel's directing department. After graduating with a master's degree, he went to the School of Cinematic Arts of the University of Southern California in the United States for exchanges. His level was pretty good.

When he opened the USB flash drive, he saw that there was only one name in it. Word document for"The Tuner"

"Is it a story about a tuner?"

When he saw the name of the script, Wang Haiyi immediately thought about what content could be filmed on this subject.

After opening the document, Wang Haiyi read it carefully.

At first, he didn't care very much, but soon the look on his face became more and more... The more serious I get, the more surprised

I become.

"This script is so wonderful!"

After reading the script, Wang Haiyi was so impressed with the film.

"Lin Ran, the concept of your script is really amazing. In just a few scenes, you portray human nature vividly!"

"Teacher Wang deserves the award."

Lin Ran said modestly.

After all, he didn't come up with it himself. Lin Ran couldn't enjoy the praise with a clear conscience.

"It has not won any awards at all. This script is really wonderful. You must shoot it well.

As long as the film is done well, it is very likely to win some short film awards."

Wang Haiyi waved his hand and said sincerely.

Lin Ran smiled and nodded.

"You just asked me to help you contact actors. Who are you going to hire?"

Wang Haiyi asked

"I’m going to ask Mr. Li Mingqi to play the old lady, and I’m going to ask Chen Kun to play the sound engineer."

Lin Ran had already thought about it and replied directly.

《In this short film"The Tuner", there are two main characters: the tuner and the old lady.

Although it is a short film, the two characters do not have many scenes, and there is even only one opposite scene.

But this rivalry scene is the essence of the entire short film, and the inner activities of the characters are very rich. To express them requires strong acting skills.

"Hey, you kid is so big-hearted that you hired two big names at once. Wang

Haiyi exclaimed first, then frowned and said:

"This is just a graduation work, and the funds are limited. Even if they just charge a friendly price, the funds will not be enough."

When directing graduates shoot their graduation works, the school will provide sponsorship.

But with so many students, it is impossible to cover all the funds, and the rest needs to be raised by the students themselves.

Some students from wealthy families ask their parents for it.

As for those whose families are poor, many people have come up with the idea of crowdfunding, but there are often fewer people supporting the project, making it difficult to raise the required funds in full.

"Teacher Wang, please give me their contact information, and I will be responsible for convincing them."

Lin Ran is confident to convince the two of them.

Li Mingqi is an old artist, and at her age, she doesn't care too much about money.

As long as the script is good, and she is given a salary of 5,000 yuan, she should agree to star.

After all, there is only one scene. With her acting skills, it only takes a day.

Chen Kun, a popular actor in the Mesozoic era, has a high salary, but he is also a person who loves acting.

He is the ambassador of the FIRST Film Festival and provides financial support of 500,000 yuan every year. Talented and passionate documentary photographer

《For the movie"Hot Pot Hero", Chen Kun only received a friendly price.

What's more, Chen Kun also graduated from Nortel, so the relationship went even further.

"All right."

Wang Haiyi nodded, but he didn't have their phone numbers.

He directly called Cui Xinqin, Chen Kun's class teacher at university, and boasted about Lin Ran's script on the phone, which made Cui Xinqin curious and asked to see it. If the script impressed her, she would take the initiative to call Chen Kun and ask him to star in it for free.

Cui Xinqin had a lot of connections in the entertainment industry, so she had Teacher Li Mingqi’s number and sent it over.

"Thank you, Teacher Wang."

After getting the phone numbers of Chen Kun and Li Mingqi, Lin Ran thanked them.

"No, you go back and prepare well. If you encounter any difficulties, come to me directly. Make sure to make this short film well."

Wang Haiyi warned

"OK Lin

Ran nodded.

After Lin Ran left, Wang Haiyi first sent the script of"The Tuner" to Cui Xinqin.

After thinking about it, he printed the script and went to the office of Wang Rui, the director of the directing department.

"Xiao Wang, what's the matter?"

"Director, look at this script."

Wang Haiyi handed the script of"The Tuner" to Wang Rui

"Is this the film you are planning to make?

Wang Rui took it and asked again.

Wang Haiyi shook his head:"It's not me, it's a graduate of our directing department this year. This is his graduation work this morning.""

"A graduate script?"

Wang Rui frowned.

"Director, please take a look, this script concept is really wonderful."

Wang Haiyi promised swornly.

"If I can get such high praise from you, then I would like to take a good look at it."

Wang Rui was a little curious. He still knew about Wang Haiyi's level. It shouldn't be bad to receive such high praise.

"Absolutely amazing! A few minutes later, after reading the script, Wang Rui couldn't help but marvel, and immediately asked:"Whose script is this?""

"This is Lin Ran's script, which he polished for more than two years."

"Lin Ran? It turned out to be him. I had the impression that he was a very talented student."

Wang Rui thought about it and then remembered who Lin Ran was.

Wang Rui is a professor and a tutor for master's and doctoral students. He usually does not teach undergraduates, but Lin Ran is among the best in his major and gets scholarships every year. So Wang Rui has an impression of him

"Director, I came to you specifically because I hope the school will provide more resources to Lin Ran so that he will not waste such a good script due to funding constraints.

I bet that as long as Lin Ran shoots well, this short film will be successful! Wang

Rui took the opportunity to say

"What you said makes sense, so I will give him a special grant of 100,000 yuan. As long as he is not extravagant, 100,000 yuan should be enough. Wang

Rui thought for a moment and said

"Thank you, Director."

Wang Haiyi immediately thanked him and was so excited that the money was granted to him.

Wang Rui warned:"The school has limited funds, so this money will be granted to Lin Ran secretly. Don't publicize it everywhere in a big way, otherwise other students will come looking for it. Me"

"I know."
