Entertaining Children

Just as the meeting was about to end, there was a knock on the door of the meeting room, and then Zhang Yunxing's secretary, Xiao Li, pushed the door in with a little timidity.

Zhang Yunxing was slightly dissatisfied, and said displeasedly: "Xiao Li, what's the matter?"

"Mr. Zhang, something happened at the studio. Mengyao and the others couldn't figure it out. They called me." Xiao Li said carefully.

"Oh? Isn't there a model card shoot at the studio? What happened?" Zhang Yunxing's face softened a little. He personally arranged the shooting of the model card at the studio today, and it is normal to find him here if something goes wrong.

"The hired photographer was dissatisfied with the assistant that the company arranged for him, saying that it affected his shooting rhythm and wasted his time, and asked the company to either change his assistant or he would stop shooting." Xiao Lihui reported.

Zhang Yunxing frowned again. The photographer who took the model card today has a lot of background. He is a French-Chinese, to be precise, a French mixed-race with Chinese blood. His name is Thielle Chen, and his Chinese name is Chen Xuan. He is a contracted photographer of the French "Paris City Bild" and a cooperative photographer of the American "Explorer" and "National Geographic". At the same time, he has also cooperated with many world-class first-line fashion brands. Also very loud.

This time, he was able to invite him to take model cards for the company's new models this year and some potential models in the company. It was he who used a lot of personal relationships to take advantage of the opportunity of his trip to Huaxia.

"Anyway, our meeting is almost over, why don't I accompany you to take a look." Hong Andong knew how good the photographer Zhang Yunxing invited was, so he simply suggested.

"Okay, that's the end of today's meeting. I hope everyone will continue to work hard in the coming year. Lao Hong, let's go to the scene." Zhang Yunxing got up and said, seeing Xiao Siqi and his son sitting beside him, he smiled and said: "Siqi, Do you want to take Xiao Yao to see it together? Xiao Yao probably hasn’t seen a studio yet. Our studio is not far away, it’s downstairs.”

"Okay." Xiao Siqi glanced at Xiao Yao, and seeing that he seemed very interested, he nodded and agreed.

"At this time, the model cards are being photographed by our models, let's go and have a look together." Two of the company's top ten managers also stood up and said.

"Okay, you guys come together too." Zhang Yunxing nodded, and said to the rest of the people: "Everyone go to your own business."

Zhang Yunxing brought a group of people to the studio downstairs, and when he entered the door, he saw that everyone in the studio had stopped and was not working, so he went straight to a tall man in his thirties He said in front of him: "Mr. Chen, I don't know if there is any dissatisfaction, please tell me directly, and I will try my best to solve it."

After Xiao Yao came in, he first took a look at the so-called studio. This place is very large, with an area of ​​about 145 to 50 square meters and a height of more than three meters. There are iron brackets, various lights, and background boards arranged inside. There were a lot of people in the studio, and there were quite a few people sitting or standing against the wall. Judging by their attire and figure, many of them were models. The few who were dressed in simple and capable clothes probably had some models with assistants. There are two doors next to it, which should be a dressing room and a dressing room. Near the middle, there is a large working table with a lot of photographic equipment on it, and two laptops on the table, both of which are turned on.

Sitting in front of the workbench was a girl with her head bowed, her long hair hanging down so she couldn't see her face clearly, but she had a pretty good figure. In front of the workbench is the set for the shoot. The lights on the iron frame are all arranged, and the background board is very interesting. On the white base board, there are seven ribbons with a height of two or three centimeters. The color gradually changes from black to light gray, and Arabic numerals from 1 to 7 are marked beside it. , It is easy to think of the background board used by American prisons to take pictures of prisoners in American dramas, and the numbers behind them are used to compare and display heights.

And that man who Zhang Yunxing walked up to when he came in,

You can guess it's a photographer just by looking at her clothes. On the way here just now, Zhang Yunxing had already introduced the situation of this talented photographer to them. Presumably, he was afraid that everyone would accidentally offend this industry leader.

Although he is sitting on a stool, it can also make people feel that this person is not short in height, and his figure is also very good. It is not a good figure like a model, but a strong and good figure like a person who works out regularly. It feels solid and powerful. Looking at his face again, it really is a good-looking face that can clearly be seen as a mixed race. Lin Qisan, one of Xiao Yao's little friends, is also of mixed race, but Lin Qisan's mixed-race face is unbelievably beautiful, but this guy has a handsome face with a strong European line.

While Xiao Yao was silently observing, this Chen Xuan had already explained his dissatisfaction to Zhang Yunxing.

Chen Xuan is French, and this time he came to China for vacation. Taking the job from Zhang Yunxing's company was entirely based on the personal feelings of my friend before agreeing to it. There are about 50 models in Zhang Yunxing's company that need to shoot model cards this time, and Chen Xuan only arranged for two days to shoot. If it is an ordinary photographer, it takes about an hour or two days to shoot a model card of a model, and it is impossible to shoot fifty people anyway.

Chen Xuan is not an ordinary photographer, he said that the shooting will be done in two days, but Zhang Yunxing believes it. It's just that Chen Xuan traveled alone without a photography assistant, so he asked Zhang Yunxing's company to appoint two assistants to assist him in his work.

Chen Xuan asked for two assistants. An administrative assistant is in charge of communicating with the people in the company and Chen Xuan's side. The end of the year is the busiest time no matter which company you are in. More than fifty models have their own jobs It is impossible to spare two full days to wait for Chen Xuan to take pictures of them. Of course, the very professional Chen Xuan didn't ask them to wait like this for two days. So sort out the order of the models to be photographed, notify people one by one, determine the timetable of the models, reconfirm before the shooting, remind, follow up after the shooting, etc. are all done by the assistant.

There is nothing wrong with this one. Zhang Yunxing arranged for a senior employee in the company's administration to be in charge of this work. Because he is from his own company, he knows that the boss attaches great importance to this matter. In addition, he is capable and dedicated to work, so there are no mistakes.

The other is Chen Xuan's photography assistant. In two days, the theoretical working hours cannot exceed 30 hours, and Chen Xuan's plan is only 20 hours. It took 20 hours to shoot 50 models. It was impossible for Chen Xuan to take a rest for a while. He must continue to shoot. Therefore, he adopts wireless transmission, and the photos taken are directly transmitted from the camera to the laptop. The photography assistant needs to operate the laptop, organize the photos sent over at any time, and separate them into folders according to different shooting categories and names, so that Chen Xuan can do post-processing.

Modeling agencies do not have their own photographers, nor do they have specialized talent for such photography assistants. Thinking about organizing photos? With a wave of Zhang Yunxing's hand, he sent a newcomer to the company, a smart newcomer model to help Chen Xuan with this job.

As a result, the little girl who had no such experience at all didn't know whether she was too nervous or was frightened by Chen Xuan's rare shooting method and speed. Anyway, it was a flurry of hands and feet, and the work was done horribly.

After Chen Xuan took six or seven models, he came over to take a casual look. As a result, his mouth was almost not crooked. Dozens of photos were scattered and filled almost the entire screen. There are misplaced. Coupled with the fact that the poor communication had already affected the progress of the filming, Chen Xuan immediately exploded and put down the camera directly, expressing that he would not shoot.

After finishing the matter, Chen Xuan added: "Mr. Zhang, in addition to changing the photography assistant, you'd better provide me with a translator to help me communicate with the model."

"What? Do you need to translate? Don't you speak Chinese?" Zhang Yunxing asked strangely.

"It's like this. My mother is from Huaxia, and she usually asks me to speak Chinese at home. So my Chinese level in daily conversations is not bad. But at work, I still habitually speak French or English. But I found that the English proficiency of the models in your company seems to be relatively average. Of course, it may be that my English pronunciation with a French accent is difficult to understand, let alone French, and the communication is not very smooth anyway. So you better Find me an interpreter, the French translation is the best, otherwise the English translation is also fine, but the English translation is relatively good, at least I can understand the English accent of a French-speaking person like me." Chen Xuan said.

Now Zhang Yunxing was in a dilemma.

It is not difficult to find a translation, but it takes time. Where can I find it temporarily? Even if it can be found, it will take half a day at least.

As for photography assistants, it is even more difficult to find. Now at the end of the year, it is the busiest time for business, and photographers who are usually relatively deserted can receive jobs at this time. What's more, it is more difficult to find a photography assistant than a photographer. A photography assistant is usually a member of the photographer's fixed team. If you don't find a photographer, you just dig a photography assistant from someone else's team. Which photographer is willing to let them go?

"Mr. Chen, do you think this is good? I will try my best to find the person you want, but don't stop the shooting here. After all, there are only two days, and the time is still relatively tight. Or just forget it today You stay in China for two more days, and you can start after we find someone for you." Zhang Yunxing discussed.

"No." Chen Xuan shook his head, pointed at the laptop and said, "Now that I'm like this, the more I shoot, the more difficult it will be for me to do post-production work. If I don't find a good assistant for me, I won't continue to shoot." Then he said: "My vacation ends tomorrow, and I have to get on the plane to leave Huaxia for the United States early in the morning. The job over there has been agreed a long time ago and cannot be changed. In this situation, when will you find a good person for me? When will the work start? Tomorrow night at nine o'clock is the cut-off time, and you can count as much as you can."

"This will be difficult." Zhang Yunxing said with a bitter face. Chen Xuan's matter was already settled by him. The list of fifty models was determined by the company after repeated discussions and after balancing all aspects. They were either star models of the company or newcomers with great potential, and they also belonged to several key managers of the company. There has been a saying in China since ancient times: Don't suffer from poverty but from inequality. Now it is said that no one will be filmed, who will be removed? Whose person is removed? There was no way this decision could be made.

"Why don't I try it?" Xiao Yao, who had been watching quietly from the sidelines, said suddenly.
