Chapter 194 Just open your mouth and come
After searching online, Zhou Le found that there seemed to be some clues about Zhang Tianai now.

Zhang Tianai became famous through online dramas, but later she also had quite good resources in film and television. She was once scolded by Jin Chen's fans for stealing Jin Chen's role.

"There's a high probability that there's someone behind this."

Zhou Le thought to himself.

Now that there was someone around, Zhou Le had an idea in mind.

It’s hard to say about other things, but we can definitely be friends.

The next day, director Liu Weiqiang called the actors to a meeting in the conference room as if nothing had happened. Even when he saw Zhou Le, he still refused to mention what happened yesterday.

"No wonder he's a director who rose through the Hong Kong scene."

Zhou Le couldn't help but sigh.

The entertainment industry is all about eating people, exchanging resources and social relationships.

In fact, Zhou Le thought about it when he went back yesterday. It seemed that this was the first time that this happened to him, but if you counted in the past, it had happened more than once.

But this time I still managed to survive.

"The film 'The Captain' we are going to shoot is divided into two parts. One part is shot inside the cabin, and the other part is shot at the airport. The cabin will account for the majority of the plot, which means that the actors who play the captain and the stewardess need to perform well."

Liu Weiqiang speaks very skillfully. Although he speaks in Cantonese, everyone can understand him.

The things he talked about were all relatively old-fashioned, and since Zhou Le was sitting in a relatively low position, he seemed to be taking notes seriously, but in fact he had already started drawing.

At the same time, Li Xi, who was sitting next to him, saw Zhou Le drawing enthusiastically, and his hands were itching to draw on the notebook as well.

After Zhang Hanyu and Yuan Quan finished speaking, Liu Weiqiang suddenly mentioned Zhou Le.

"Zhou Le, what are your thoughts on this play? Without even reading the script, do you have any ideas for the performance?"

Zhou Le was suddenly called, just like a student who was absent in class and was called to answer a question.

But top students are always calm and composed.

In fact, he also knew that if the people above wanted to, they could see what the people below were doing, just like Zhou Le did on the construction site before. They had to submit a weekly report every week. Many people would use this link to show off their writing skills and write an article that was a combination of a diary and an essay.

Those that are favored by the leaders will be read out at the regular meeting on Monday.

Zhou Le was often called up to read the weekly report. While he was reading, he could always see the people below writing and drawing.

"Director Liu, if I were to say this without reading the script, I think the most important thing about playing these roles is to become these characters. On the one hand, it's about being professional, and on the other hand, it's about being realistic. Only in this way can the characters stand out.

Just now, when you, Professor Zhang Hanyu, and Professor Yuan Quan were talking, I was thinking about how to better combine the two.

This kind of nonsense now almost all has a formula for the answer, so Zhou Le can come up with it easily.

"Very good, Zhou Le said it very well, but did you remember something just now?"

Zhou Le picked up his notebook and said, "It's not really a record. I was mainly listening to what the director and the two teachers said while I drew a Sichuan Airlines captain's uniform. Because I didn't know exactly what my lines were, I thought about whether I could combine what they said with my uniform, which symbolizes honor."

Hearing this, Li Xi gave a thumbs up.

He was able to give this back to Zhou Leyuan, he is indeed a top student.

After hearing this answer, Liu Weiqiang was very satisfied.

"Then let's chat with Li Xi too." "Huh?"

Li Wei didn't expect that it would be his turn so soon.

When answering, I was glad that I drew an airplane.

So he imitated Zhou Le's answer and gave a different explanation.

After the meeting, Liu Weiqiang gave the remaining contracts to the artists who had not yet signed.

"Take a look at the contract when you get back. It's actually based on what we originally discussed. After you sign it, you can ask the assistant to hand it over to the assistant director, who will then give you the script."

Leaving the meeting room, Zhou Le and Li Wei walked at the end.

"Directors from Hong Kong push the limits, signing contracts at the last minute, and only after signing can they get the script."

Li Wei said in a low voice.

"That's right. Director Liu shot a movie in just seven days and it received pretty good reviews. So, of course, he's doing better than us now."

"Seven days, I've heard of it, but can you really produce something good in seven days?"

"It depends on the subject matter. If it's something like Young and Dangerous, and the actors are all very skilled at it, seven days is definitely more than enough. If the plot and schedule go perfectly, theoretically, if we get everything done in one take, we might be able to finish it in one day."

Li Wei thought for a moment and asked, "So, will the film be finished in one day?"

"Maybe there is, I just don't know. After all, there will definitely be directors who want to challenge this record, but the fact that it hasn't been widely circulated now means it's not very popular.

But I know there is a classic movie called "12 Angry Men", which has been around for more than 60 years. It was shot in only 19 days and is quite classic. All the actors were in one scene the whole time, which was a test of their acting skills.

I think if our country wants to make low-budget movies and get high box office, we can actually consider this model."

As Zhou Le spoke, he suddenly felt as if Pandora's box had been opened in his mind.

"Yeah, why can't I take the initiative to propose making such a movie? Anyway, the investment is not much money. Instead of always investing in other people's movies, I might as well make one myself. Although I don't plan to be a director yet, I can find other directors to cooperate with..."

Zhou Le thought this plan was feasible.

Afterwards, Xu Zheng, Wen Muye, Ning Hao and others were contacted first, but except Ning Hao, the others did not show much interest after listening.

But even if Ning Hao wanted to do it, he would hand it over to the directors under him, but there are actually not many suitable directors at present.

Because in such a small space, the actors' acting skills are tested, but it has to be somewhat suspenseful.

But Wen Mu is not interested now, and Zhou Le feels that the others are not reliable.

After all, no matter how familiar they are, if we really talk about their works, the only directors Ning Hao can currently show off are Lu Yang and Shen Ao.

But Shen'ao has movies to shoot in the next two years. Although Lu Yang has shot two "The Blade of the Assassin" movies, Zhou Le has also seen those two movies, and the logic and most of the character designs are actually not very good.

In his personal opinion, the best characters in the first part are Ding Xiu and Wei Zhongxian.

Not to mention the second part, the more I watched it, the more speechless I became, especially at the end, Zhou Le couldn't even understand why everyone had to come back to see me off when they could have left.

It's a completely confusing operation, making people want to curse.
