Chapter 130 A Good Movie Script
After being evaluated by the "Light of Entertainment," a mysterious analytical tool known for its uncanny accuracy, the script received an SSS rating—a designation reserved only for projects guaranteed to become blockbusters.
Even without having seen the movie in his previous life, Zhou Yi trusted the system's judgment enough to invest wholeheartedly.
Upon hearing Zhou Yi's decision, both Robert and Edward were momentarily stunned before breaking into wide grins.
Edward was so overwhelmed with emotion that his voice nearly cracked.
"Mr. Zhou, thank you so much. I... I don't even know what to say."
Robert gave him a reassuring pat on the back before turning to Zhou Yi.
"Mr. Zhou, may I ask how much you're planning to contribute? The budget we're aiming for is... substantial."
As he spoke, Robert's confidence faltered again. So far, they had only managed to secure just over a million dollars in funding, with some coming from their own families. But to execute the film properly, they needed at least fifty million—and that was after cutting costs by avoiding big-name stars.
"How much do you need?" Zhou Yi asked calmly.
"Fifty million," Robert replied, though the figure made him uneasy.
Zhou Yi frowned. He vaguely remembered that in his previous life, the film's marketing materials boasted a budget closer to two hundred million. Why had it dropped to fifty now?
