Wan Changsheng is indeed a bad move, and Director Xi was mentally prepared for him, so he asked someone to hold a conference call.
Originally, the filming cost of this movie, tentatively named "Demolition", is expected to be not high. Director Xi's cost quote is 20 million. The entire production team, from director to photographer, all the box office dividends are paid. In other words, if the filming is broken, there is no penny, and all these funds will be invested in the shooting cost, actors, scenes, and post-production.
Because it was launched by Pingjing Drama Academy, the entire cast and crew were of course fully responsible for the drama Academy. From powerful middle-aged and elderly actors to young leading actors, they will be selected among the teachers and students of the Drama Academy. They will never use such traffic stars with amazing value.
Everything is spoken by acting skills.
So the investment in this movie is not high, and it is standard low-cost shooting.
In the words of Director Xi, the script is not a problem. Li Mingran's reputation is well-known in the industry, and now the investor nodded when he took out this book.
There is no need to ask about production, post-production and other aspects, what else is there in theatre that is not the industry-leading in the country?
The main thing is the director's problem.
The other two people sitting in Director Xi’s office on the video call did not say it directly, but it was definitely a matter of ease if Director Xi took the microphone himself.
People must be a little confused about such a college student who has never heard of it, or a major in art academy rather than film and television.
Director Xi made this call and made Wan Changsheng look like this: "It's true that I haven't been discharged from the hospital yet, but on March 9th, I'm going to Tianjin to attend the local closing ceremony of the National Youth Art Exhibition Tour. I wonder if you have time, I'll visit..."
Jia Huanhuan couldn't stand Brother Changsheng's humiliation, it was only how much it cost. She frowned a little, and Zhong Mingxia quietly held her.
Things in society are not local emperors.
Guanyin Temple can use this money to buy a house, but it will not invest the money in movies and waste it.
It is one thing that you can afford to pay. Only by distributing the benefits to more people can we bring about a situation of cooperation.
Who knows someone asked over there: "How many people have drawn these scripts and how long have they been drawn?"
Wan Changsheng calculated: "Five days... less than six days, I drew it alone."
There was a lot of surprise over there: "Impossible, Impossible..."
Director Xi smiled and beat the drum: "Impossible? When I was directing the May Fourth Movement at the National Grand Theater, he watched it for a while, drew the manuscript script, and after it was revised, do you know what it means? Do you know what the National Youth Art Exhibition is in the five-year period? It has never happened. A person won three gold medals, but it is not in the same category! Do you understand the common style of sculpture, Chinese painting, seal carving, and art? I can teach him how to lead the way, I am a producer..."
I guess I wanted Wan Changsheng to draw some manuscripts casually.
As a result, after listening to Director Xi’s big move, he hurriedly agreed: “You said that, how can you have any worries? Okay, okay, this matter is settled so much. I’m looking forward to the young Director Wan’s popularity this year!”
All kinds of artistic talents are fake. People with talent have seen many talented people in the film and television industry, and they still have to be the boss to guarantee the formation to be the most effective.
Wan Changsheng felt that his butt was full of red, and he was also grateful for it now.
The apprentices and teachers in the ward all witnessed the easy decision of investing in filming 20 million yuan.
Even Su Munan dared not let out arrogance.
Director Xi smiled and saw the guests away, then he started commenting step by step along Wan Changsheng's scripts in front of the camera.
Film is a very mature industrial product. The biggest problem for many talented people to enter the film industry is that they really regard film as art.
I always want to show something in it.
But first of all, this is a commodity, and in short, a movie is a business first.
Even if it is not for the box office and to win awards, it is a profitable business.
Because this is a business that the entire team worked hard to follow the director.
We cannot make everyone lose nothing because of the director's artistic style, and even lose money.
Director Xi advised young artists like this at the beginning.
Fortunately, there are many tyrants in the world, and they are recognized by them.
Of course, Director Xi’s recognition of Wan Changsheng is: “The movie is nothing more than a coherent picture recorded by the image, and it is different from the drama, or even simpler. I dare not let you direct the drama easily. But you can try the movie. The last time you understand the characters was correct, let alone the composition and picture sense in the script. What you need to pay attention to next is how to lead the entire crew, or the old saying, governing a big country is like cooking small fresh food, which places need to be improved, which can be lightened, which needs to be listened to photographers, props, and which insist on your own opinions. This is the greatest experience for you. I may not have time to go to Jiangzhou, but keep in touch at any time. In terms of photography and drama affairs, Lao Lei helped you organize it. In terms of actors, you directly arrange it with Xiaoman. I am looking forward to you interpreting this script from a non-professional perspective, just like some of the shining points shown in these scripts, if you connect them, it is a string of brilliant pearl necklaces.”
Wan Changsheng said seriously.
Director Xi spoke very carefully and told Wan Changsheng about her feelings about the script, pointing out what common sense mistakes Wan Changsheng made.
In fact, Wan Changsheng has never watched a movie much, let alone have any deep feelings about the movie.
So Director Xi listed a series of classic videos for him for reference and learning.
Wan Changsheng is another sincere thanks.
For those who have a background in Chinese painting, having a copying object is the easiest way to understand this profession.
During this period, there were several phone calls and visits over there, and Sister Man responded to the class.
For Director Xi, who is still leading a doctoral student, this is also normal.
So Wan Changsheng really took a big class.
Teacher Su, Xu Chaohui and Fisheryan listened attentively.
Many of the wisdom of art are in common, and it is a blessing to be able to attend such courses in three lives.
Jia Huanhuan tiptoed to pull Zhong Mingxia to stop the nurse from coming in and disturbing her.
When Director Xi finally hung up the phone, this time it was Teacher Su who took the lead in applauding: "Congratulations on your success in the path of film director! You will definitely succeed..."
Wan Changsheng didn't realize what this would bring.
Just asked Jia Huanhuan to help him collect movies, the classic movies mentioned by Director Xi.
Su Munan reminded: "It is better to find a better audio-visual and video space. That is a completely different experience than watching it on your phone."
Zhong Mingxia, who has always watched movies on her mobile phone, was not easy to detect.
Wan Changsheng's few cinema experiences have almost always taken Jia Huanhuan to eat popcorn.
So I can only admire Director Xi for being so bold.
Of course, Wan Changsheng also guessed that he didn't need to make too many decisions on the spot.
Poor he saw the only time he saw the shooting scene was in the alley of Director Xi.
But Du Wen was clear about it. He heard that Wan Changsheng had already taken the short and fast director class and was about to start entering the director role. Hahaha, the first thing he thought was: "Casting! Casting, I want to have a few handsome guys with hidden rules! I really didn't expect that I would have such benefits as an agent..."
Next to him was Lin Chuni's rare tone: "Bring me... I can push my butt."
Du Wen cut the photo for Wan Changsheng to show it. The two girls actually wore kimonos and said they wanted to go to the hot springs. The legendary prototype of the bathhouse in "Spirited Away".
It's really beautiful, but fortunately Wan Changsheng is not tempted: "I'll ask you two to go about casting."
There almost laughed: "Are you really stupid or don't take it seriously? The role of an actor is the best way to reflect the director's understanding of the script. Why should we choose? What should the role in your mind be like? You have to discover the roles to be selected. This is the basic lesson of the director department. Alas... This world is really unfair. Many senior brothers and sisters who are professional directors have longed for their whole lives and have never had the chance to get such scripts. If you invest and favor, you are still born in blessings and don't know how to bless you!"
Du Wen still spoke to her own people: "After all... Wan Changsheng is a success in the curve. First prove himself in other fields, then... the filming and other filming are all his own territory. He has achieved success in other fields, and then enters the film and television industry. I suggest, no, is it necessary to ask you or do this by yourself? The most we can help is to prepare the early stage, should we let handsome men and beautiful women come to Jiangzhou, or do you come by yourself?"
Wan Changsheng was stingy and stingy: "So many people flew around and drew money? Before I went to Tianjin, I arrived in Pingjing two days in advance. Please help me with the preliminary screening."
Du Wen still praised: "The script is well drawn and the script is really good. I am looking forward to what this movie will look like."
Lin Chuni teased: "But why do I feel that the heroine's look a bit familiar?"
Du Wen sighed hummingly.
Then the day before the Lantern Festival, Su’s parents finally said goodbye with the pleasure of visiting Jiangzhou.
Mainly mentioning Su Munan's changes.
If she had done written research and analysis before, she really saw the direction of exploration of art education and training this time.
So after first contacting Han Xiaomin on WeChat and then having a long conversation, I really started to contact the student union of the National Academy of Fine Arts, hoping to promote the project to behave in the East China region.
Dad Su was very pleased with his daughter's change. This was a quality that the nerd who had only been buried in calligraphy and seal carvings before could not see. He was very happy.
Mama Su has ulterior motives to entrust her daughter to Wan Changsheng, so he can take good care of her.
Wan Changsheng endured the huge discomfort, nodded repeatedly, and agreed to send the two of them away.
Because as the large area of wounds begins to scar and fall off, the legs can be said to be extremely itchy now!
Of course it is indecisive.
It took such a great price to restore the skin to the surface. Although it was quite ugly, at least the functions were barely restored to normal.
If you scratch it again, it would be unprofitable!
Seeing Zhong Mingxia sending the guest away, Jia Huanhuan rushed over to help Wan Changsheng apply some cooling ointment on his legs, but he could only take care of it for a few minutes.
Wan Changsheng rolled on the bed with itchy itch!
He has always been calm and wise, and I am afraid that he will be like a child in front of Jia Huanhuan.
It made Huanhuan feel both distressed and funny. She gently added medicine while holding back her laughter and comforting her.
So Zhong Mingxia saw it on the glass outside the door and stopped pushing the door and coming in.
Chapter completed!
