Chapter 512 Two Directors(1/2)
On June 8, the day before the Dragon Boat Festival, Hu Hao came to the school to find Yu Dong with two stacks of information.
"Boss, this is the director candidate for the two TV series "Oolong and Love" and "Love Through Time".
Yu Dong is writing a post. This period of time may be because the summer has just entered and Mr. Wang's incident has happened. He always feels suffocated and sluggish in his chest, so once he is free, he will post a post, hoping to relax himself and let go of the feeling in his chest.
Let it go.
Seeing Hu Hao coming over, he put down his pen, raised his head and said with a smile: "Have they chosen a director yet?"
"Mr. Yu didn't say anything. He just asked me to bring these materials over and let you, boss, take a look." Hu Hao stretched out his head and looked at the writing on the table. "Boss, your handwriting is really good today. It's comfortable."
"Stop flattering me and bring me the information."
When Hu Hao sent the information to him, Yu Dong opened it and looked at it. They had prepared a lot of candidates, with a total of more than 20 candidates for the two TV series. These directors have a wide range, both in terms of style and experience.
The reason why Yiliang and the others want to send the information to Yu Dongxuan is because the two TV series "Oolong Love" and "Love Through Time" are relatively new. There have not been similar TV series in China before, so it is difficult.
Take your seat and find the director.
Yu Dong looked at it briefly and finally pointed out two people, "These two are Gao Xixi and Kong Sheng."
Hu Hao stretched his neck and looked at them, then said with a smile: "Sure enough, these two are quite young."
"What do you mean?"
"Mr. Yu said that Boss, you will definitely choose a younger director, so in this information, there are many directors under the age of thirty-five." Hu Hao smiled and said, "But I didn't expect that Boss, you would choose a younger director."
This Kong Sheng, he is a monk on the way, he was an editor in a magazine before, and he has also been working as a cameraman in the past few years, so he may not have enough experience."
Yu Dong looked at Hu Hao with interest, "Since you don't have enough experience, why should you put him in?"
"It was Mr. Yu who watched "Kong Fansen" and thought it was very good, so he contacted director Wang Wenjie, who recommended Kong Fansen to him."
Yu Dong nodded, Wang Wenjie's information was also in his hands.
When he first saw Kong Sheng's name, Yu Dong had some doubts. After all, Kong Sheng has not yet emerged and has relatively little experience in filming TV series.
He was worried that the current Kong Sheng would not be able to handle a complete TV series, but later he saw in the information that Kong Sheng had already filmed two TV series and won awards, so he felt relieved.
As for the other Gao Xixi, Yu Dong is not worried at all. Gao Xixi graduated from Nortel. He has filmed several TV series in the past few years and won several awards. He is already quite mature.
Hu Hao took the information from Yu Dong's hand and pulled out Kong Sheng and Gao Xixi individually.
"Boss, how do you divide the two of them? Who will shoot "Oolong" and who will shoot "Love Through Time and Space"?
Yu Dong thought for a while and said, "Invite them to Jinling and let them choose."
"Okay, then I'll go back and talk to Mr. Yu."
Yu Dong nodded, and when Hu Hao reached the door, he stopped Hu Hao again, "Come back and take this calligraphy away."
Hu Hao's eyes lit up and he ran over, "Okay, thank you boss, I will definitely frame it and put it in the most conspicuous place in my living room when I get back."
Yu Dong sneered and said, "This is a memorial document for my nephew."
…
When Kong Sheng received the call from Wang Wenjie, he had just gotten up and was still a little confused.
"Kong, I have a drama for you. Do you have time during this period?"
Kong Sheng rubbed his eyes: "Yes, I've been busy lately. What do you want to take pictures of?"
"I didn't take the shot, you took the shot."
"I'm filming? What do you mean?" Kong Sheng became more awake, "Do you want me to be the director? Why did you call me?"
Wang Wenjie smiled and said: "Oh my God, you are in luck. The Deep Space Company has a new drama and is looking for a director, and they are interested in you. If you are not busy recently, pack up and go to Jinling as soon as possible."
"Please tell me clearly what you want to photograph first."
"I've told you so clearly what I'm doing, why would you suffer a loss by asking you to go there? Let's not talk about it for now. I've already given your number to the Deep Space Company. I guess it won't take long for them to contact you. That's it, please come back from Jinling
I eat……"
Wang Wenjie hung up the phone, but Kong Sheng was still confused. He had no idea what was going on.
Now I only know that Deep Space Company is going to make a TV series and wants to find him to be the director.
But, why is this? Why should Deep Space Company want to find him?
It's not that Kong Sheng is unconfident, but he understands his own situation. He is just a newcomer who has just been working as a monk for a few years and has not yet made it out. There is nothing about him that makes people attracted to him.
But Wang Wenjie would definitely not lie to him.
Before he could figure it out, the phone rang again. He hurried to answer it and heard a young man's voice from the other side.
"Hello, are you Teacher Kong Sheng?"
"I am Kong Sheng, who are you?"
"I am the general manager of Deep Space China, I would like to briefly explain my purpose..."
…
When Kong Sheng hung up the phone, he was still a little confused. Shen Kong was indeed planning to film a TV series. No, it was not a TV series. According to Yiliang, their company was currently preparing two TV series at the same time. As for which one he wanted to film?
Department, wait until they read the script and make their own decision.
The behavior of Deep Space Company is really beyond expectations. Their company is now very popular in the cultural and entertainment circles. No matter what director or actor they are, they can hire them.
But they chose to invite an unknown new director like themselves to shoot a TV series for them, and what was even more outrageous was that they also asked him to choose the script himself.
There were many things that Kong Sheng couldn't figure out, but the performance and reputation of Deep Space Company were real, so he was just a little surprised, but he didn't doubt that there was anything fishy about this matter.
The next day, he set off towards Jinling.
…
Gao Xixi and Kong Sheng arrived in Jinling at the same time. They took the same bus, but one got on the bus in Yanjing and the other in Quancheng.
Kong Sheng came out first and met the deep space staff who came to pick him up.
Staff member Xiao Liu put away Mr. Kong’s luggage and then said, “Teacher Kong, we have to wait for a while and we have to pick up another teacher.”
"Another one?" Kong Sheng raised his eyebrows. He had never heard of another person before.
Within a few minutes, Gao Xixi came out of the passage and saw Xiao Liuju's sign "Welcome Teacher Gao Xixi" and walked over with a smile.
Looking at the little fat man walking towards him, Kong Sheng stroked his sparse beard on his chin. He did not expect that the person who was recruited by the Deep Space Company with him was also a young man.
From the looks of it, he may not be thirty years old yet.
After approaching, Gao Xixi shook hands with Xiao Liu and Kong Sheng. Xiao Liu introduced him: "Teacher Gao, I'm here to pick you up, Xiao Liu. This is Teacher Kong Sheng next to me.
Likewise, he is also the director who came to see the script. I didn’t expect you two to take the same bus, which saved us trouble."
"Oh, hello, hello." Gao Xixi shook hands with Kong Sheng again, "I will learn more from you in the future."
"You're welcome." Kong Sheng smiled, "Let's go to their company quickly."
"Yes, yes, come over quickly and read the script first."
…
After arriving at the company, it didn't take long for Gao Xixi and Kong Sheng to decide on the scripts they wanted to film. Gao Xixi filmed "Oolong" and Kong Sheng filmed "Love Through Time and Space".
The two of them didn't argue or fight, didn't push or refuse. After reading the script, they directly chose what they wanted to film.
Yuliang didn't expect it to be so straightforward, and he was also surprised, "I thought that when faced with the choice, the two of you would have to struggle for at least a while."
In fact, Yu Dong had thought about this issue when he proposed to let them choose by themselves. He was worried that after giving them a choice, problems would easily arise.
And if both of them fall in love with the same script, it would be really difficult.
Gao Xixi smiled and said: "I chatted with Director Kong for a while, and this allocation is indeed more appropriate. In fact, neither of us has ever been exposed to this type of TV series, and we may not necessarily have the confidence to film it... Of course, I represent
Without asking Director Kong, I’m just talking about my own situation.”
"It's okay, I have the same idea. I have never been exposed to this type of TV series. When I heard about a comedy before, I thought it would be a sitcom. I was a little more confident because I had just participated in the production of a sitcom.
.Only after I came here did I realize that it was this kind of thing.”
Yuliang laughed: "You two don't have to underestimate yourselves. We have seen your abilities and you are definitely qualified."
Then Yuliang looked at the time and said, "It's getting late. Let's go have a meal together later. I've booked a private room at the Jinling Hotel to catch the wind and wash away the dust for you two."
"Mr. Yu, you are too polite." Gao Xixi said.
Kong Sheng also said: "It is indeed too polite."
Yu Liang smiled and said: "What's wrong with this? There are not just the three of us tonight, our boss is also here."
"The boss you are talking about is Yu Dong?" Gao Di asked.
Yuliang nodded: "Yes."
Gao Xixi smiled, "I wanted to say just now whether I could meet Mr. Yu, but I didn't have the nerve to mention it. I am also a loyal reader of Mr. Yu. The year before last, he went to Yanjing Film Academy, and I was there. Later,
I heard from my junior that he went that day, but I regretted it so much. During that time, I often went back to school, but I didn't go back for those two days, and I missed it with Mr. Yu."
"Also during the book signing of "To the West", I happened to be filming "The Day I Go to the Sea" and I didn't make it in time to attend."
I can tell that Gao Xixi is indeed a reader of Yu Dong. Otherwise, he would not have remembered the time when "Xiangxi" was signed for the book, or the day when Yu Dong went to Yanjing Film Academy.
