Chapter 752: Wanli Group (World)

Lanse is a person with strong execution ability. Only people with execution ability can truly turn a thing from "I have a plan" into reality.

He told the director about his conception, let the director make a call, and called the company's two most famous screenwriters over.

He felt that this plan had great feasibility, so he needed a script now.

The two screenwriters looked at the story outline simply recorded by the director, looking very seriously and devotedly.

When they put down this piece of paper, they both breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"A story different from others!", screenwriter A couldn't help but praise, "And a very wonderful story!"

Screenwriter B also had this view, "It conforms to the narrative structure of mainstream movie scripts now, and the core is revenge."

"There is great revengeism in federal society, so it will have a market, but I'm not sure how big its market is!"

Screenwriter B appeared slightly cautious, "The narrative angle is too high, I'm very worried about whether people can understand it."

"Now the mainstream viewing group is still dominated by ordinary people with low education and illiterate people. They may not be able to interpret the promotion of the war between individuals, families, and countries and countries in it."

Screenwriter A nodded, "Yes, we might need to make it look softer?"

Lanse thought for a while, "Prepare for both hands. One is to look at the whole story from the perspective of a tough guy. It needs to be strong, with the taste of iron and blood, making people feel cruel. Whether it is being hurt or hurting others, we need people to have some reflection after watching it."

"The other perspective is to soften it slightly as you said, so that more people can understand it, and it is more about the plot."

"But no matter which point it is, I need you to focus the core on the strategic position of Xiang Yalan!"

"The core of this part of the plot and plot is not allowed to be changed!"

Screenwriter A asked, "Mr. Lanse, I probably know your idea. Can I ask, what is the budget this time?"

He looked down at the paper recording those stories, and then looked at the director, "The scene here is very grand. Even if you use a studio and models, you need a lot of investment."

Lanse considered for a while, "Gentlemen, are you interested in creating the first big-production movie in film history?"

He looked at these people, "Starting at one million, no upper limit!"

As long as this movie is good enough to convince Congress, the return it brings will be ten thousand one millions, ten million one millions!

Hearing that Lanse was going to take out so much money, the three of them gasped, but immediately became excited!

They all knew very well that once they participated in important production in such a movie, they would also become a key point in film history that could not be bypassed along with this movie!

Lanse glanced at the date on his watch, "Strive to get the script out as soon as possible. We will release it in the second half of the year, so you will live here during this time."

"I will let the butler take you to the villa next door. If you have any needs, you can ask the butler."

"Cigarettes, liquor, including women!"

"But I have one requirement, that is, don't fool me."

All three guaranteed they wouldn't do that. The director also put forward a small, extra requirement, "Can I direct?"

Lanse considered for a while and gave him the title of co-director. He hadn't filmed such a grand narrative with grand scenes, so Lanse didn't believe he could handle it. They needed a director who could film grand narratives.

It's best to be the kind with achievements. This matter needs the director to figure it out.

In the next few days, Lanse was thinking deeply about this matter. He didn't worry about whether he could convince the Navy, because the overseas garrison he had discussed with the Navy and the entire military before had already made them excited.

He was thinking about the Congress side, whether some moral saints would suddenly stand out and insist on respecting other people's sovereignty and internal affairs, which is damn painful.

But what the specific result will be depends on the actual result of the script.

The next morning, Barbara ran into the manor's main building from outside and met Lanse.

Lanse was talking to Patricia. Patricia seemed a bit wrong recently, and she didn't even eat the food she liked most.

Lanse had already made an appointment with the family doctor, who would not come until the afternoon. He had a premonition that Patricia was pregnant, and it had been a while.

At least a month.

Her period was very abnormal last month, only a faint color that was almost invisible. At that time, Lanse was still in New Jincheng, and she didn't care either.

Now it seems that it is very likely that she got pregnant the month before last, so...

This made Patricia both happy and a bit scared. She thought of the painful screams of Emily in the delivery room when she gave birth to Victor!

And after having a guess, she read a lot of books about pregnancy. These damn books always compare women's pregnancy to putting their necks on the sickle of death.

They exaggerated the terrible degree of childbirth, saying that one out of three pregnant women would have an accident, which is purely nonsense (see the noun explanation of Black Stone Code for details).

But the sensitive girl believed this, happy for a while, sad for a while, and scared for a while. Fortunately, Lanse's spirit was tough, otherwise he would have been depressed by her.

Barbara entered from outside, first hugged Patricia, rubbed her face, then hugged Lanse, and kissed him on the cheek twice.

Lanse rolled his eyes, "I suspect you have impure thoughts about me!"

Patricia burst out laughing, Barbara's eyes were shining, "Are you planning to invest in a super masterpiece?"

Lanse helped Patricia walk to the side and let her sit down, which also aroused Barbara's curiosity, "What's wrong with her?"

Then she quickly widened her eyes, "You're pregnant!"

"God!"

"Patricia is pregnant!"

"I want to tell everyone in the family this good news!"

She seemed even more excited than Patricia, and I don't know what she was excited about.

Patricia's face turned red, "Don't say it, this makes me very embarrassed!"

"And the doctor hasn't come yet, we can't confirm it yet, so you have to wait."

Barbara didn't care about these, "It must be like this, don't think about deceiving me, I'm not that easy to deceive!"

"I'm going to call and tell them this good thing now!"

Patricia wanted to stop her, but Lanse shook his head, "I think so too, what you need now is quiet."

Soon everyone in the Lawrence family knew about this. The three old uncles also called to ask about this. Hubert also said that if Patricia was really pregnant, let her go back to the farm to raise the fetus.

Many people now say that the air in the city is not good, the pollution is serious, etc. The countryside seems to be good at everything, and there are enough people to take care of her.

The aunts on the farm, although they look big-handed and big-footed, can really handle things when something happens.

On the contrary, the maids in the manor might not be able to do anything except scream when they encounter trouble.

Lanse didn't agree directly, he just said that if Patricia also wanted to go back, he would let her go back.

This also depends on whether Lanse himself has specific work arrangements. If he has other things and cannot accompany Patricia all the time, he will let Patricia go back.

William and Emily also brought Victor. Emily pulled her daughter to the side to ask about her pregnancy.

This child is extremely important to the Lawrence family!

Don't look at William as a municipal councilor now. Everyone knows how he got this councilor. Without Lanse, he is nothing.

So Lanse, and the first child born to him and the Lawrence family's bloodline, are particularly important!

This established the binding of Lanse and the core interests of the Lawrence family, and it is also the most solid hub for the two interest groups!

In the future, if this child inherits everything of Lanse, and he himself is still the grandson of the Lawrence family, he cannot abandon the Lawrence family.

This is also the reason why the three old uncles took the initiative to ask about this and said they would let Patricia go back to raise the fetus.

William gave Lanse a cigarette, they both went to the balcony to smoke, he joked, "You will soon be deprived of the freedom to smoke at home!"

With that kind of "experienced person" watching the fun, Lanse laughed and said, "This building has more than a hundred rooms."

At first William didn't react, but soon the expression on his face solidified, "Shit, I forgot about this!"

This is not his big villa. Although it is a big villa, if you smoke indoors, the ash will still spread to other rooms.

But this is the main building of the manor. Even if Lanse smokes a hundred cigarettes together here, Patricia's bedroom won't smell a bit of smoke!

He appeared a bit depressed, "I want to buy a manor in the future too!"

Lanse shrugged, "With your current job, you probably have no hope in your life. I like to tell the truth, I hope you don't mind."

William rolled his eyes, "If you can't speak, you can not speak!"

The two looked at each other for a while, smiled at each other, he sighed, "Are you ready to be a father?"

Lanse hesitated, "Actually, you don't have to chat if you can't chat in this regard."

"My child and I don't need to be ready for anything. You should ask the world, is it ready?"

William was a bit embarrassed, "Okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about something else."

The two started talking about the international situation. Men are always like this. Even if they are eating a one-dollar meal at a construction site, they still pay attention to the changes in the international situation and have a series of their own mature and stable ideas!

After the couple came, they definitely couldn't leave in a short time, and there were enough rooms here, and there was even a detached small building next to it, so the two decided to stay for a while, which is to accompany and help Patricia through the early stages of pregnancy.

In the afternoon, the doctor also came. After the examination, it was confirmed that Patricia was pregnant.

To ensure Patricia's safety during pregnancy, Lanse directly asked the doctor to contact the hospital and temporarily formed a private medical team, consisting of four senior doctors, twelve nurses, and six nursing workers.

They will be on standby in the manor 24/7, and the mobile small building will be converted into a private small medical operating room.

When necessary, any problem can be solved here.

As for money?

Problems that can be solved with money are no longer problems for Lanse.

At dinner, everyone's emotions were much more stable. William looked at Barbara curiously, "We only cared about Patricia's affairs, why did you think of coming?"

Barbara also reacted, she turned her head to look at Lanse, and stars started to appear in her eyes again, "Lanse is going to shoot a big production starting at one million, I'm here to ask for the heroine!"

She is now obsessed with acting. Lanse also signed her up for a class to learn acting. After all, although she has talent, she still needs systematic learning.

Sometimes Lanse feels, do those vain girls who like to show off have acting talent?

Hearing her words, William was also surprised, "One million?"

"What kind of movie needs such a big production?"

Lanse briefly explained the ins and outs of the matter. The ladies were not interested in political affairs, but William heard some meaning.

"You mean, you want to occupy Xiang Yalan?"

"What is the reason?"

Lanse used a knife and fork to cut a piece of beef with a little tendon. The beef was cooked very soft and rotten, the tendon was trembling, and it looked very tempting.

In fact, in formal cooking, tendons are not kept, because in the Federation, and even the whole world, beef cooking is mainly frying.

During the frying process, the tendon will shrink, making the shape of the beef look not so normal, a bit strange, so they will remove these tendons before cooking.

Lanse asked people to keep some and cook it by stewing. He likes this.

He put the fattest and most energetic piece into his mouth, chewed, picked up a napkin to wipe the soup on his lips, and after he swallowed, he put the napkin on his right hand side, "National security, is that enough?"

Lanse simply gestured with his hand, "Xiang Yalan's position on the East Ocean is very special, located in the middle of the Federation and the Dantela Republic. Whether it is attack or defense, it plays a vital role in the safety of the federal territory."

"I don't know much about military things, but I know that if they want to bypass Xiang Yalan to attack us, they need to take more sea routes, and they are more likely to be discovered by us."

William nodded when he heard this, "But what good does this do for you?"

Lanse started to manipulate the knife and fork again, "The federal government may not be embarrassed to occupy that place as an aggressor, I will help them with this favor."

Saying that, he got some food for himself and started eating.

These words gave William unimaginable weight, just like a thunderbolt exploded beside him, and the whole person was dizzy!

He looked at Lanse and couldn't speak for a long time, could only silently light a cigarette, and then was driven outside by Emily.

He suddenly remembered what Lanse said in the afternoon.

His child is born, not that he needs to be ready, but this world needs to be ready!

How big must a person's ambition and state of mind be to have such an idea!

It's damn crazy!

Barbara didn't know what Lanse's words meant, she just begged, "I want to be the heroine!"

For a movie with an investment of one million, as long as it is not too bad, her popularity and status in this industry will be improved by a large margin.

Lanse looked at her with a scrutinizing look, and she also noticed this, then quickly left the side of the dining table and stood where Lanse could see her whole body, and turned around twice.

The flying skirt made her look full of vitality, and her criminal figure could indeed attract many fans.

She put her hands together on her chest, with a look of begging, "Please!"

Patricia couldn't help but say, "If it's not that... important, give it to her."

Her relationship with Barbara has actually been quite good. Although Barbara is a bit vain, Patricia doesn't feel she has been hurt.

And with the appearance of Lanse, Barbara has also become better to her in a subtle way, and it is normal for her to like this cousin with Patricia as the center.

Lanse nodded, "Okay, but you have to do it seriously. This movie has a very important meaning to me. If you mess it up..."

She immediately raised her hand, "You can spank me, I'm most afraid of being spanked!"

Lanse glared at her, "Eat your meal!"

She returned to the dining table with a cheeky face and started eating happily.

In the evening, Lanse was refused to sleep with Patricia by Emily, the reason being to protect the baby who was still very fragile.

Lanse had no opinion on this.

After Emily returned to the room, she first looked at Victor, then lay on the bed, she poked William with her elbow, William, who was reading the newspaper, frowned and looked at her, "Don't tell me you want to drink water."

She is sometimes like this, things that can be done by herself, she must lie on the bed and let William do it.

Emily shook her head, "Do you think... can our daughter keep Lanse?"

William put down the newspaper, "What do you mean?"

Emily sighed, "Women will flock to him like moths, that's what I'm worried about."

William originally wanted to say "no," but he thought of the things he had done, and he was a bit uncertain, became hesitant, and hesitated.

The couple fell into a deep sleep in anxiety. The only one who was heartless was one person, and that was Patricia.

Not sleeping with Lanse, she found a big pillow and clamped it with her legs to fall asleep.

Under a series of external forces, the screenwriters wrote the script in a week. Lanse picked up the harder script and looked at it for a while, put forward some revision opinions, and then decided to shoot according to this script.

Of course, he also mentioned that screenwriter B could sign together, which made screenwriter B breathe a sigh of relief.

It took two days to change, and on the second day of May, Lanse took the script to find General Miles.

This matter, he and the Navy, and the military, also have to contribute! ===== CHAPTER 753 =====
