I was just thinking about taking the arts exam and you said I've been playing supporting roles

Chapter 198 The little queen appears!
This year marks the first time that Liu Gang, the chief director, has taken on such an important position.

Before that, he had been working as the assistant to Zhang Xiaohai, the director of four Spring Festival Galas.

Zhang Xiaohai is a senior editor of the station, as well as the director of the large program center and variety show director. He is in charge of all variety shows of CCTV. So in addition to directing the Spring Festival Gala, he was also the chief director of the live broadcast of last year's 60th anniversary military parade and the opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing Olympics.

Liu Gang was fortunate enough to participate in it, so he is very familiar with Zhang Yimou.

Chen Jin and Zhu Yanmanzi were able to perform on the Spring Festival Gala together thanks to this relationship.

"Come on, let's talk while we eat!"

Liu Gang spoke to Chen Jin who had just walked out of Studio No. 1, and greeted Xiao Zhu behind him.

"Oh, okay... Director Liu!"

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Jin finally reacted.

But seeing the surprised looks from the people around her, Chen Jin had no choice but to say, "Director Liu, please wait for me for a moment. I'm going to take off my makeup!"

"Then I'll go to the cafeteria to order food first, and when you're ready, come directly to the second floor!"

Liu Gang is still very busy as he has to be responsible for several other programs in the afternoon.

After Chen Jin and Zhu Yanmanzi removed their makeup, they hurried to the CCTV cafeteria and saw Liu Gang sitting there alone.

Chen Jin thought there were a lot of people.

"That's right!"

Liu Gang pointed in front of him and asked two people to sit down. The meal was ready for them, as well as seven or eight side dishes.

Chen Jin didn't hesitate and picked up the chopsticks to eat. He was indeed hungry. Zhu Yanmanzi next to him was a little reserved.

“I watched your video before and was a little worried about censorship!”

"But once you put on this makeup, the feeling comes immediately, so I thought, how about we make this show into a stage play of dialogue between ancient and modern times?"

Liu Gang pushed the side dish in front of Chen Jin, took two bites and raised his head.

"Dialogue between the past and the present?"

Chen Jin understands this concept.

Because some programs have this creativity, such as questions and answers between modern people and ancient people.

"Yes, it's the character you play. Let him know about China today!"

"It's a song of praise, but the main theme isn't so blunt. It's just to let him see what's happening right now!"

"Time and space intertwined?"

"almost!"

Liu Gang smiled and said, "That's what I thought!"

"You can keep your show, but it would be better if the host reads the narration at the beginning. Then find a male host from CCTV to say it!"

"Moreover, he is also responsible for the final dialogue, which is when you finish reciting Qinyuanchun Changsha and the host comes out to start the conversation with you!"

"This is acceptable!"

Chen Jin had a familiar feeling, as if "China in Classics" also followed the same pattern?

Although he has not seen it, there are screenshots in the future autobiographical movie, which shows the host and the ancient people standing opposite each other.

"I'll help you find someone to do the manuscripts, and you can also discuss it with your team. We'll get the script for this stage play out as soon as possible!"

There is no team... It's just Lao Mouzi and a few others who are helping out voluntarily. If Chen Jin had a team, there wouldn't be only two people coming today.

But despite all the complaints, Chen Jin still nodded: "Okay, Director Liu!"

"The third review will be on the 8th of next month, so we still have half a month. In fact, the program rehearsal is easy, mainly because of the script and process!"

"And... the host!"

Liu Gang was deep in thought, not even bothering to eat: "I'll think of a host. Let's pick one from the Spring Festival Gala, Zhu Jun, because his voice is more emotional. When the manuscript is ready, send it to me, and we'll rehearse together before the review!"

"Will this take too long? Will it affect other programs?"

"Don't worry about it. Programs have their priorities, and your program definitely has priority!"

Just like many programs have to give way to Lao Zhao’s sketches.

He is the priority and must be there. Compared with him, other programs are dispensable.

One is trying every means to get on the Spring Festival Gala, and the other is that the Spring Festival Gala wants him to be on the Gala to guarantee ratings.

That's the difference.

In Liu Gang's view, Chen Jin's program now has such significance.

If he becomes really popular, his position as director of next year's Spring Festival Gala will be secured; after being a deputy for so many years, Liu Gang finally has the opportunity to become a full-time director, and he must seize it.

What he is best at is stage control. His control over stage effects, lighting, creativity, etc. are all world-class.

"Don't worry about the stage effects. I'll help you with them. They will be completely integrated into the show during rehearsal!"

"It won't disrupt..."

After giving Chen Jin a few words, Liu Gang waved to the two people and walked out of the cafeteria.

He was obviously very busy today. The fact that he was able to take time out to have a meal and chat with Chen Jin showed that he really saw the potential of Chen Jin's program.

“Is our show going to be popular?”

Zhu Yanmanzi asked Chen Jin in a low voice.

Chen Jin laughed: "Why is it so popular? It hasn't even been aired yet, who knows the outcome?"

“But I feel Director Liu and the others are very optimistic!”

"Do you think it's good?"

Chen Jin pushed the side dishes in front of her, but the girl didn't eat much of them and was busy listening to her leader's speech.

It looks like a secretary, and it would be more like one if he wore a suit.

Unlike Chen Jin, who listens but also eats enthusiastically.

"I definitely have an unconditional 100% favorable opinion of you!"

Chen Jin was so happy about all the flattery that even AK couldn't suppress it.

After finishing their meal, the two went down to the basement and first sent Xiao Zhu back to the Central Academy of Drama. Before Chen Jin arrived at the crew, Han Sanpin called her.

"I heard the show was over?"

You've heard it all, so why do you need to call to confirm it?
But what you heard is not reliable.

"It's not decided yet, but the judges seem to be quite supportive of this program. Let me improve it!"

"The chief director of the Spring Festival Gala told me to arrange it into a stage play, which means it needs to be expanded and a host needs to be brought in!"

"Ha ha!"

Han Sanpin laughed on the other end of the phone: "That's a good thing. The longer the show is, the higher the exposure!"

"Ok!"

Of course it’s a good thing, but Chen Jin feels tired.

I have to film and do this at the same time. It’s not that I can’t handle it, but it’s tiring!

"So I told you before, have a good talk with Director Zhang, and recruit some people. Your strong ability is your advantage, but you don't have to do everything yourself. It's not advisable to do everything yourself!"

"The whole team will benefit from this program, and everyone will thank you!"

"Come to the crew quickly, I'll introduce someone to you..."

Han Sanpin was talking on the phone, and Chen Jin didn't think much about it, but Old Han's words did wake Chen Jin up. He is not a god, he is a human.

Zhao Benshan's sketches all have a team, such as screenwriters, planners, directors, etc. A program like Chen Jin's must also require people.

It’s not that Chen Jin and Zhu Yanmanzi can handle it alone, but there is really no need to work so hard.

The plates are getting bigger and bigger.

It is important to build your own team.

Especially since this program has become a priority, we must do it better.

……

On the other side, Han Sanpin just hung up the phone.

A fashionably dressed girl got out of a Porsche with a slightly frown on her brow; her large sunglasses covered her rather seductive face.

The big jewel earrings, the loose sweater, and the messy fluffy short hair make the look quite exaggerated.

She looked to be under 30 years old and seemed very familiar with the crew. It was obviously not her first time to come to such a place.

"Master Zhao, where is my dad?"

Han Jianv saw a familiar script supervisor and asked.

This is his father's old team.

This girl is Han Sanpin’s beloved daughter, Han Jianu, who is currently preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination for the directing department of Beijing Film Academy.

"Hey, the little queen is here? She's drinking tea inside. She just got here too!"

"Thanks!"

Han Jianuo waved her hand politely. Many people present actually knew her, and some had watched her grow up on the crew.

So since childhood, Han Jianuo has been very interested in making movies.

After all, I was brought up by the crew since I was a child.

She doesn't have the airs of a young lady. She does things just like her father, being efficient and resolute and speaking directly. Sometimes even Han Sanpin is afraid of her, so many people in the crew call her the little queen.

"Dad, what's the matter? I have an appointment with my classmates for afternoon tea!"

Han Jianu's voice was a little cold and she spoke quickly.

He walked in, took his father's teacup and took two sips.

"sit!"

Han Sanpin crossed one leg and pointed to the seat next to him.

Han Jianu sat down and looked around: "Where's Chen Jin? Why can't I see him?"

Just now she walked in and took a special look at the actors in the crew.

"I haven't come yet, I just want to tell you this!"

"What's wrong? Did you say anything to him? I'm not a fan of him, I just think Love Is Not Blind is quite fun!"

Han Jianuo was afraid of her father's gossip, after all, being single was also a problem.

Han Sanpin was also very worried.

"Would I tell your dad about this?"

Han Sanpin snorted unhappily, and then emphasized: "Business!"

"Speak, I love to hear the serious stuff!"

"He has a program that will be performed on the Spring Festival Gala. I just had a phone call with them. I don't know what the station means, but the chief director is very optimistic about his program, and it has political significance!"

Han Sanpin said to Han Jianu who was holding a cup of tea beside her.

Han Jianu sipped her tea and squinted her eyes as she asked, "Do you want me to follow him and get rich?"

"..."

It’s no wonder that Han Sanpin is afraid of his daughter. Just one word from her can choke him to death.

That's true, but it doesn't sound good when you say it.

And Han Jianuo is indeed smart. She understood what her father meant in just one sentence.

"That's about right. He needs to write a script or something. You can help him out and put your name as a screenwriter on your resume, which can also be considered as a layer of experience, right?"

Han Sanpin had nothing to say, as long as his daughter understood.

"Old man, your daughter wants to make a movie, and you want me to be a screenwriter for the Spring Festival Gala?"

Han Jianu even spoke Sichuan dialect.

She obviously looked down on the Spring Festival Gala, and it is normal for young people to have such thoughts.

"What if this show becomes popular? Wouldn't you be famous too?"

"You are studying directing at Beijing Film Academy, but you don't know when you will be able to make a movie. Isn't being a screenwriter better than being a film director?"

"Let me think about it!"

Han Jianu sipped her tea. If it wasn't for the fact that the person in front of her was her own daughter, Han Sanpin would have already taken action.

Is this even worth thinking about?!
How many students at Beijing Film Academy would risk their lives for such an opportunity? You really don't take this matter seriously.

"Dad, what do you think of Chen Jin?"

"It's definitely a hundred times stronger than yours..."

"I didn't ask about his ability, I asked about his character!"

Han Jianu took action immediately and hit Han Sanpin twice.

Han Sanpin pretended to feel pain and touched his shoulder, then said with a smile: "It's okay, don't tell me, I think highly of your father!"

"Stop it!"

"I don't have that idea!"

"Hey, did I tell you to date him?"

"Okay, then I'll follow him for a while and study this person!"

Han Jianuo was actually quite interested in Chen Jin, mainly because she wanted to see what he was like in real life. She knew all about the marketing of the movie "Love Is Not Blind", so she was really curious about this top scorer in the college entrance examination.

"Are you still researching?"

Han Sanpin muttered softly and was attacked by Han Jianu's pillow again.

"When will he arrive?"

"Wait here, he just left the CCTV building!"

"Then I'll go out and play for a while!"

Han Jianu pretended to stand up, and Han Sanpin couldn't help but ask, "Why, don't you have anything else to say to your father?"

"Of course, who wants to see your sullen face every day?"

"a ha ha ha!"

Han Jianu stepped out and turned back to give Han Sanpin a laughing face.

Han Sanpin was so angry that he really wanted to throw the pillow in his hand away.
