Capítulo 6: Simply Hideous
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
"But to become a director will also require some money to start with."
"Including investments, the entire crew, and the script. But Your Highness, I can take charge of the aspect that is most lacking in this world - special effects."
Special effects!
Jun Ci searched her memory and realized that the entertainment industry in this world was flourishing.
But there was an awkward situation in the country she was residing in.
The celebrities' remunerations were too high, and most crews were unable to do special effects.
Hence, many TV dramas and movies used cheap effects to dupe the audience.
The Chinese audience was more inclined to foreign films when it came to special effects blockbusters because the foreign special effects were more amazing in their eyes.
However, through the occasional glimpse of Jun Ci's memory, the special effects in this world were still in the exploration stage.
Even if they brought over the movie from the interstellar era that had spent the least amount of money on special effects, its special effects could still beat all the blockbusters in this world.
3D was just beginning to show up.
People in the interstellar era could directly appear in the movies' virtual world.
But Gu Lu definitely wouldn't be able to do that right now.
However, since Gu Lu had mentioned it, it meant that Gu Lu's current ability in this respect was definitely beyond this world's.
Special effects were the most costly, but with Gu Lu around, she didn't have to worry about it.
But even if this didn't require money, she still needed a sum of money to start.
Furthermore, the current Jun Ci was still subjected to the Zhang family.
But what had Gu Lu said just now?
A director and a script.
She could write her own script!
When she used to write her own reports praising herself in the past during the interstellar era, she was able to boast about herself from all degrees.
She simply wasn't able to cover up her talent in writing!
As the crown prince, she also needed to be complimented!
The scripts in this world that were very popular IPs were worth hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. There were many foreign artists who had relied on a single work to make millions!
That involved IP adaptations of a movie or a television series.
She could write the script herself, then turn her story into a movie, provided she could cause a sensation.
Jun Ci was deep in her thoughts, while Gu Lu was receiving information. Both parties didn't interrupt one another.
Then, Gu Lu reminded her, "Your Highness, with your new identity, the price will be low even if someone is willing to accept the script you've written. Gu Lu suggests that you first write a novel online like how most IPs do. Once your novel becomes popular, the funds to launch Your Highness' movie will come in. Also, Your Highness can make an adaptation of your own film in the future. With Gu Lu around, the effects after the adaptation will definitely shock the world! Your Highness can write about the interstellar era - I've checked and found out that interstellar science fiction novels aren't rare in this world, and there are many interesting works. If Your Highness is able to write one, it will definitely be very popular."
Gu Lu was very confident in itself and Jun Ci.
Jun Ci also had a lot of confidence in Gu Lu.
"Deal, help me pick a suitable site to publish my novel online, I'll think of a story."
Jun Ci and Gu Lu had worked together for many years and could make decisions very quickly after a discussion.
With an idea in her head, Jun Ci was at ease.
After letting Gu Lu work, she got out of bed.
She had an uncontrollable impatience - she had to take a look at this face of hers!
But she didn't even have a small mirror in her room because the original Jun Ci was afraid of it.
However, there was a mirror in the living room. Jun Ci slightly opened the door and peeked outside.
Zhang Changming had probably gone to the neighbor's place as there were only the sounds of Fu Cuihua cooking in the kitchen.
Jun Ci immediately walked out and quickly headed for the big mirror in the living room.
In the end, she was shocked with just one glance.
She couldn't even scream.
Truly, she was simply hideous!
