Perfect Life

Vol 5 Chapter 111: start shooting

He Yingyu was a little restless, always subconsciously wriggling in the seat.

The Zhou Zhiyu, who was once regarded by her as a courier, was sitting next to her at this time, and at this time, people were constantly coming in, and the people who knew each other were just looking at each other. Therefore, in this large conference room, Except for the occasional sound of footsteps, the rest of the time was unusually quiet.

The time is July 22, 2000, Friday, and the location is the No. 2 conference room of the Film and Television Department of Minghu Culture Company on the ninth floor of Minghu Building.

Every time someone came in, He Yingyu couldn't help but stare at them for a moment, and then quickly lowered her head without waiting for anyone to find out - what will be held here today is the preparatory meeting for "My Sassy Girl", but , Among the people present, she actually only knew one Lu Lingxi.

Well, this guy beside him may be barely acquainted.

She lowered her head and leaned over, "Hey, I heard from Teacher Lu, are you from the drama club?"

Zhou Zhiyu turned his head to look at her, nodded with a simple and honest smile, "Yes, Shuntianfu Drama Club. I graduated from Songxi."

He Yingyu nodded, glanced around the room, and asked, "How many do you know?"

Zhou Zhiyu circled around the crowd and said, "I know your name is He Yingyu, and I know that the assistant director is Lu, and the rest only know Mr. Feng."

"Mr. Feng? Which one?"

Zhou Zhiyu quietly pointed to him, "Hey, Feng Shaocheng, Mr. Feng, the drama is very good, and he takes special care of me. Oh, he is an old actor of our Shuntianfu Drama Club. It is said that he will play the boss of that hotel."

The script was sent to several main actors more than ten days ago. It was the first time that He Yingyu took over the show. He Yingyu was very serious. After getting familiar with it last time, it is natural to know that this movie is closely related to the hero and heroine to tell the story. The only slightly important supporting characters in the play should be the owner of the hotel and the deserter in the playground.

The two were whispering, and after a while, a familiar figure walked into the office.

He Yingyu's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said to Zhou Zhiyu, "Is that Minghai? Qi Baoshan?"

Zhou Zhiyu nodded, because when Zou Wenhuai approached him to talk about a film contract, he also proposed to sign a brokerage contract, and he signed the contract without hesitation. Some human resources of Minghu Culture Department are more familiar than He Yingyu.

Turning his head to see that no one was paying attention to his side, as soon as Ming Hai came in, he hurried over to shake hands with Feng Shaocheng, chatted and laughed in a low voice, and then greeted a girl who looked quite young politely, and then whispered to He Yingyu: "It is said that He is a good friend of Director Jin Han. He used to take odd jobs at Huairou Film and Television City, but was recommended to Director Li by Director Jin Han, who then let him play Qi Baoshan, and he became popular."

He Yingyu first nodded when she heard the words, then turned her head to look at Zhou Zhiyu in surprise, "Yo, you know a lot!"

Zhou Zhiyu smiled very honestly and didn't say anything.

He Yingyu glanced at him. To be honest, until now, even though the script was already familiar, she still couldn't accept that she was going to fall in love with this seemingly innocent guy in front of the camera.

The first love on the big screen in fantasy, or even the first kiss, the other party must be the kind of handsome and scumbag kind?

As a result, this guy is too harmless, right?

After a while, she asked, "Hey, have you acted before?"

Zhou Zhiyu replied in a low voice, "I only act in dramas, I have never acted in front of the camera."

He Yingyu blinked, thinking that she is even more blind now, both of them know nothing!

But she didn't intend to show her timidity, and whispered, "Did you see that beautiful woman over there? The teacher in our college, after I got the script, I already asked her to help me arrange the play, and we'll go through it again, definitely not. question."

Zhou Zhiyu nodded very honestly, and when she turned her head away, she couldn't help thinking: When I went to give you something, it was originally arranged for us to play against each other, but...

Soon, He Yingyu turned her head again, pointed carefully at the girl sitting diagonally opposite, and asked, "Hey, do you know who she is? I think everyone is very polite to her!"

Zhou Zhiyu shook his head, but nodded again with a twisted expression on his face, and whispered, "I'm not sure, just because I heard people call her Manager Huang, who is said to be one of the two producers of Minghu Culture, so You see, Ming Hai is very polite to her. It is said that she is one of Director Li's most trusted producers. She should be the executive producer of this drama. Gossip, it is said that she used to be Liao Liao's manager! "

He Yingyu suddenly realized.

But after a while, she shook her head with a look of indifference on her face, and said, "I don't know."

…………

At nine o'clock, Han Shunzhang and Zhu Mingyu entered the conference room, and He Yingyu finally had another acquaintance. Three days ago, she received a call to Minghu Culture. She met Han Shunzhang and knew that this was a senior.

At 9:25, Li Qian and Jin Han finally arrived, while Sun Yuting followed behind them, low-key like a little tail that was inconspicuous at all.

As soon as he entered the door, everyone stood up in unison, Li Qian quickly raised his hand to signal everyone to sit, "You're welcome, everyone, sit!" He himself sat down at the main seat of the conference table, and then He continued: "First of all, I'm sorry, our company's top drama "Meteor Garden" was originally expected to end around early July, but it was delayed until the 16th, which was a few days later than expected, so , our filming was about ten days later than expected."

After a pause, he said: "Time is running out, everyone, I'm calling everyone together today. First, I'll be in charge of the introduction, so that everyone can get to know each other so that we can cooperate in the future. Second, it is to make sure that everyone is in the crew. The division of labor and responsibilities, so that everyone understands what kind of things happened in the crew, and who should go to solve it..." Having said that, he glanced at the conference room and smiled: "It's almost there, then I Let's start from the beginning. The first is our two assistant directors of this film... Lu Lingxi, Han Shunzhang."

Following Li Qian's introduction, Lu Lingxi and Han Shunzhang stood up one after another and greeted everyone.

In terms of responsibilities, Lu Lingxi mainly follows the main line and assists the director in filming, especially the performance of the actors, while Han Shunzhang is mainly responsible for some branch lines, such as some empty shots that need to be shot, and some non-key shots, etc. He is responsible for taking the photographer to shoot.

In terms of importance, Lu Lingxi seems to be mainly in charge, but because he is basically working for the director Li Qian, he is a little inferior. This time, Han Shunzhang has a certain degree of autonomy to a large extent, and he is barely on his own, so It was a small delegating power from Li Qian to him.

Then, Li Qian introduced several main members of the crew again, executive producer Huang Wenjuan, this is the chief housekeeper of the crew, director of photography, Jin Han, headed by him, and several photographers in the photography crew, namely Du Yuchun , Yang Jie, Fu Xuelong, and camera assistant Lu Bin.

Then, the art director is Zhao He.

He was originally invited by Yu Bojun Hi-Tech to assist him in taking charge of the production company of Yu's Film Industry, but with Yu Bojun's farewell to the entertainment industry, Yu's Film is close to being discontinued, of course Yu Bojun is willing to continue to invest in Zhao He and let him I came to continue to make some low-budget films, but after staying in Yu's Films for seven or eight years, Zhao He also understands that Yu's Films is in production, and will only plan to make small troubles in the future. .

So, let's talk frankly, although he has not officially resigned there, he has already joined Minghu Culture, and "My Sassy Girl" is the first film of Minghu Culture, if Cao Zhan is free, then Li Of course Qian wanted him to be the art director, but he was busy participating in "Super Girl", so Li Qian asked Zhao He to take charge of this part, which was regarded as a gatekeeper for the film.

Zhao He's subordinates, the art, clothing, and make-up teams are led by Zhu Mingyu.

After introducing the above people, Li Qian pointed at Sun Yuting, who was sitting in the rearmost corner of the oval conference table, and said, "She is Sun Yuting, she just graduated from the Shunying Directing Department, and she is the producer of this drama. The assistant is also my assistant to the director, just like the assistant cameraman Lu Bin, if you don't know who to turn to to solve the problem, then go to them both!"

After introducing the main members of the crew, Li Qian sat down and signaled that Lu Lingxi, the deputy director, would introduce the main actors of the crew-although he had experienced many big scenes, it was his first time to participate in the crew in person. , Although Lu Lingxi was calm on the surface, it still showed some tension.

However, in such an urban romance film with an exceptionally clear mainline and an exceptionally prominent focus, apart from the male and female protagonists, the actors needed are really limited. In addition, Lu Lingxi has participated in the casting from beginning to end before, with Several of the main actors in the crew are familiar with each other, and at this time there is no meaning of stage fright, so they stand up and introduce everyone one by one.

The real strangers are actually mainly three newcomers. Zhou Zhiyu plays the hero Zhou Aniu, He Yingyu plays the heroine Song Mingxi, and even Ming Hai, who plays the deserter, actually doesn't have much to introduce. In addition, including the hotel owner played by Feng Shaocheng, as well as the parents of the hero and heroine, they are all old actors that Li Qian found from the Shuntian Drama Club, and they are even more familiar with each other.

Of course, like the successful man who has a blind date with the heroine in the play, and the hero's aunt, that is, Ming Xiaojing's couple, they are all cameo appearances, and they will just come over to shoot at that time. The scenes are very limited, and they are not present today.

After some introduction, at least people who don't know each other are familiar with each other. Afterwards, Lu Lingxi was in charge of finalizing the schedules with the actors one by one. Except for the male and female protagonists, the others had limited roles. Li Qian planned to use the method of entering the theater separately and finish the filming of these old actors first. , so the result formed in this way is that this one comes, that one goes, and the schedule has to be determined one by one.

As for the male and female protagonists, of course, it must be followed from beginning to end.

Finally, Li Qian announced that the crew will gather three days later, that is, on July 25th, and filming will officially start on July 26th.

…………

As soon as the preparatory meeting started, even though the crew started to run at full capacity and everyone performed their duties, Li Qian was relieved. When he walked out of the conference room and saw Jin Han following him, he smiled and said, "Have you come to rest?"

Jin Han shrugged, "That's it, it's a bit rushed, but to be honest, this kind of TV series has limited emotional investment, and the body is a little tired, but the brain is not tired."

Li Qian smiled and said, "I heard Xiaobing say that you put a lot of effort into teaching her to act, thank you!"

Jin Han waved his hand with a light-hearted look, "What's the matter, she's actually a bit talented, she can't play some big roles, but like this idol drama, or to play a big vase, she's quite qualified It's gone!"

Li Qian smiled, for Jin Han, this evaluation is not low.

But at this time, he didn't have the heart to discuss this with Jin Han, and just warned: "Go back and talk to the team for a few days. You, the director of photography, still need to guide."

Jin Han nodded, "Lao Du and Yang Jie are about the same level. Xuelong's talent is nothing to say. I just watched this drama for a few days, and when I got to Dao, I'll come back to cut it." After thinking about it, he said: "About a month, it will be fine to cut it within a month. Then take ten days and a half months to cut it, and it will be fine."

Li Qian let out an "um" and said, "Let's go back and give the soundtrack to President Xie. I have already written and recorded the two theme songs and an episode. The soundtrack is simple, and President Xie will arrange for someone to do it. That's enough. Then... I'll just wait and see your finished product, and don't interfere."

Jin Han nodded, "Done!"

…………

In late July, the weekly sales of "Red Bean" fell in a very healthy way. In addition, this album started too high. Although it showed a steady downward trend, the new albums released on the market still continued to decline. I can only look up at it, I can't fight it at all~www.wuxiaspot.com~ And at the same time as "Red Bean" dominating the music scene, it is the American blockbuster "Doomsday on Earth" and domestic film master Qin Wei's new film "Beacon Tower" box office battle.

Just like the record war between Liao Liao and Zhou Cong at the beginning, this kind of planned topic is actually beneficial to improving the box office of both parties, but this time, the domestic media invariably played "Support national films, support national films". The slogan of "Master Qin Wei", so the box office increase of "Beacon Tower" is more obvious - however, "The Last Day on Earth" still does not fall.

At the same time, almost every week, two or three domestic films and at least one American film are entering the market one after another, participating in the summer box office battle.

It can be said that although the domestic box office market is still in a downward trend, it is still a big market with an overall magnitude of up to 5 billion Chinese yuan. Even Hollywood blockbusters will never underestimate it.

Therefore, the summer box office battle was extremely tragic.

And at this time, quietly, "My Sassy Girlfriend" started filming in Shuntianfu.

I'm sorry everyone, maybe it's because I've worked so hard this month, and maybe I didn't pay attention to my diet, and I've suffered from cholecystitis. Since a few days ago, I've woken up at four or five o'clock every morning. The whole back is in constant pain. I can't even turn over, but if I get up and move around a little bit, I'll be fine. I've been taking medicine secretly, and my wife always thought it was just an old problem, but this morning I was found by my wife when I was tossing and turning, and I had no choice but to tell her, so I was taken to the hospital for an examination, and then an infusion, and now I don't know if it will continue to hurt tonight... Originally, I started to code early recently, so I could update it at noon, but I didn't write it today. After dinner, my wife reluctantly agreed with me to write a little bit, so it's even later, everyone forgive me. (To be continued.)
