Chapter 284 Casting
After listening to Lin Mo's story, Lin Zhende smiled and joked: "Lin Mo, you are really a pitfall!"
"You said you have the idea to sell popcorn! You have to bring this scene into the movie and make it into a couple food? Are you encouraging others to fall in love, and you have to get a share of the pie when others are in love!"
"Besides, there are many people who are blowing popcorn on the street, and the price is not high. How much money can you make? Are you not going to let others bring them in from other places?"
Looking at the second uncle who was smiling, Lin Mo curled his lips and said to himself: Are you still quite satisfied with this plan! As for being so stubborn? And if you don’t bring things in, you still think of it yourself.
Although the theaters in later generations basically would not let people bring things in, Lin Mo did not intend to do this, and he had a better way to do this.
So Lin Mo said, "Uncle Fourth, I am not as bad as you, so I naturally have other ways to sell popcorn for profit."
"We can open a popcorn factory ourselves, buy a large popcorn machine, and produce it all day long, so that the cost will be very low."
"And this way, you can produce different flavors, you can make some coffee, chocolate or caramel to produce these flavors."
"Or seasonings or spices like chili powder and salt can also produce popcorn of different flavors, which is different from the original flavors on the street!"
"After the factory is ready to produce, then paste some large paper cups, put them in, and send them directly to the theater, or even sell them to the store. Isn't it a big hit?"
After hearing this, Lin Zhende nodded immediately and smiled: "Okay, this matter will be resolved. I still have a problem now."
After hearing this, Lin Mo quickly spoke, "Uncle Second, don't worry! I haven't finished this matter yet!"
After persuading Lin Zhende to stop, Lin Mo continued, "I plan to let the Lin family run it in person."
"But the movies we make, especially the audience, are different from the movies we are now, so the requirements of the theater are also somewhat different."
"First of all, our cinema should choose a location in schools or places with more young people. We must not miss the surroundings of the playground. Those places are too messy and are not suitable for our audience."
"Secondly, the cinema should not be too large. It is best to be a cinema that can only accommodate about 100 people. The decoration inside should also be as simple as possible. Do not use traditional or luxurious decorations. These are not very suitable for young people."
"It cannot be done in the style of other Chinese cinemas, because it only plays movies and does not act in dramas. It will do whatever it is more suitable for playing movies."
"The last point is to strictly require the viewers. When entering the cinema, you must dress appropriately. You don't need to ask for it, but you must at least be neat."
"The order of watching movies must be controlled well. No smoking, drinking, and joking are allowed. Do not make noise inside, so as to attract more customers."
Lin Zhentao, who was on the other side, heard this and interrupted, "Lin Mo, you are not attracting customers, but chasing people!"
Lin Mo smiled and said, "Uncle San, you don't understand this. Doing this is called establishing a grade and image to attract our target audience."
"Although I haven't watched a movie in the cinema, I still know from my classmates that the place is so messy, such as smoking cigarettes, drinking and causing trouble, and even fighting."
"Uncle II, how attractive do you think is to young people who have just left society or are still in school?"
"What's more, their parents are still disciplined. If you were their parents, would you be assured that they would go to such a place?"
After hearing this, Lin Zhentao nodded, and had to say that Lin Mo's reason was strong enough. Not to mention letting the children go to such places, he himself didn't think much about going there.
Seeing Lin Zhentao being persuaded, Lin Mo continued to speak: "The other is a mobile theater. I don't plan to do this by the Lin family. After all, the profits are limited and it's troublesome."
"This is what I plan to do. The Lin family provides funds to lend them to others to purchase projection equipment. Then the two parties cooperate. Of course, the money requires interest, but it cannot be too high, otherwise this method will not work."
"The other party is responsible for playing movies everywhere, mainly playing what we filmed by ourselves. As for the money we earn, it belongs to the other party. The Lin family is responsible for burning movie film and selling it to the other party to play."
"As for how the Lin family makes money, it is that when the other party wants the Lin family's new video to be played, he must pay a sum of money to buy new videos."
"As for who we work with, there is no limit to this, but if we go to find someone in person, I suggest finding a theater troupe. After all, they have both experience and various places, so they are the most suitable."
"It's just a pity that our family is not doing import business now, otherwise we can not only make a profit on the projector, but the price they buy will also be much lower."
After hearing this, Lin Zhentao asked again with a smile: "Don't be a pity Lin Mo, the price of this projector is not low. If we want to spread it on a large scale, we won't pay less money! We don't pay that much money now!"
Hearing this concern, Lin Mo smiled and said, "Uncle San, please put your heart in your stomach! We don't have to pay much for this."
"We open cinemas and do this in order to spread movies in China and make more money by making movies."
"We do this just to let people see that there is money to make money when opening mobile theaters. At that time, there will naturally be people who can afford projectors. If we go to buy projectors and play movies, we don't have to lend money to others."
"Besides, the Lin family won't pay much money for a while. After all, the projectors we have is not enough for us to use! The rest should be transported from abroad for a while."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! "As for those who buy projectors, I think let Scott come! On the one hand, there is no need to be cheaper for those guys, and on the other hand, it can also tie Scott and the Lin family tighter. In the future, we will have many places to use him."
After hearing this, Lin Zhentao just nodded and did not ask again.
Neither of them was worried about whether the lent money could be recovered. After all, the Lin family did not lack the ability to make these people pay back honestly.
Although the Lin family's current strength is just ordinary in front of the most powerful people in China, the people who need to borrow money to buy projectors will definitely not be these people, but only ordinary people.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the Lin family is definitely a behemoth and cannot be provoked. After all, it is not a future generation, and the government will not provide them with guarantees.
The same is true for film films. Lin Mo has never worried that others would dare to record the Lin family privately. After all, those who have the ability to compete with the Lin family will neither look down on this profit nor will they offend the Lin family for the sake of this money.
As for those who are bold and risk-taking, naturally, some people will tell them what "safe-taking" is.
Seeing that the third uncle Lin Zhentao had no questions, Lin Mo turned to Lin Zhende and said, "Second Uncle, just ask if you have any questions!"
Lin Zhende heard this and said, "Lin Mo, you said before that the movies you made are different from those in China now. Then actors must not use ready-made ones. How do you plan to deal with this problem?"
Hearing this question, Lin Mo smiled and said, "Uncle Second, what else can I do? Let's train ourselves."
"We have so many people in our business, and now we are idle. Some people will face the shift to factories. We don't know whether we can adapt or not. It's better to arrange some of them now."
"I don't believe it anymore. Among so many people in the business, I can't choose a group of people who are suitable for acting and acting. Besides, I can't find them among them. Don't they have family members! Can't they choose some?"
"Like martial arts movies, there are a large number of martial arts practitioners in our business. Among them, those that are attractive can be directly actors, and others can also be martial arts directors, responsible for choreographing the fighting movements."
"As for comedy, the people we usually receive are not eloquent, and there are also humorous and funny people."
"As for campus love movies, this is a bit troublesome. Not only do you have to be young, but you should also go to high school, otherwise it will be difficult to perform that kind of scholarly atmosphere."
Speaking of this, Lin Mo's heart moved and turned to his father and said, "Father, why don't you let me act like this!"
"Uh..." Lin Zhensong was stunned when he heard Lin Mo's words, but immediately reacted and quickly spoke: "No, this is not possible. If you ask your brother to act, then you will become an actor?"
After hearing this, Lin Mo smiled and said, "Don't worry, father, this is not asking him to keep doing this, but just finding an excuse to let him leave the school so that those who are mingling with him will not find him."
"Closing him at home is a bad idea. With my younger brother's character, things will definitely not be that simple. If he doesn't make trouble, he will not be a younger brother."
"Instead of doing this, it's better to use this method to send him off the school for a while, and wait until we get his school matters done and let him go back. Then he can't make a fuss even if he wants to."
"Besides, I am quite handsome and have a sense of scholarly aura, which is quite suitable for this kind of campus movie."
"If you are still worried, we can work hard on the script to weaken the love factors in it, just expressing mutual admiration, and the theme is to express youth, struggle, hard work, and struggle and other very positive things."
"In this way, it can also establish a very positive image for me, and the impact on his future will only be positive."
"What's more, there is an actress to perform. We can also find people from his school to find people who are attracted to him. I don't believe he will not have one at his age."
"At that time, maybe as we act, we will be able to do a real show, and we can also solve the major events in his life."
When Lin Mo said these words, Lin Zhensong was obviously a little moved, especially the last reason really touched Lin Zhensong's thoughts.
Although Lin Mo is still in high school, in this era, he is at the age of marriage, and even surpasses the average marriage age.
The reason why he proposed the conditions to let Lin Mo get married as soon as possible today was really urgent. It can even be said that he had been anxious for several years, but he didn't expect to be anxious for another son for a few years.
