Become Famous Another Day

Lu Yanhe, Chen Bige and Wang Zhong made an appointment to have dinner together.

Regarding this short script, Lu Yanhe said: "Director, have you wanted to shoot this story for a long time? It shouldn't be just written, right?"

“Well, I wrote a script before, but that script couldn’t be filmed, so I took a short paragraph from that script and modified it.” Wang Zhong said.

The reason why Lu Yanhe had this idea was that when Lu Yanhe read the script, he felt that there were many lines in it that did not look like they were written in just a few days. Many places looked polished at first glance.

“Why can’t that script be filmed?” Lu Yanhe asked.

 Wang Zhong said: “Now I can do it even if I want to, but at that time it was because I couldn’t find investment.”

“Isn’t it a pity to take it out and make a short film now?” Lu Yanhe asked.

 Wang Zhong: "It's such a pity. It's good to be able to make it into a short film now."

Lu Yanhe asked: "Director, can you let me see your script?"

"do you want to see?"

“Hmm.” Lu Yanhe said, “I liked your short film script very much after I read it.”

Wang Zhong nodded, "Then I will send it to you when I get back."

 Chen Bige turned to look at Lu Yanhe and asked, "You don't want to make Director Wang's script into a movie, do you?"

"No, no." Lu Yanhe shook his head quickly and said, "I just want to learn. The director's script is very good. I know that the director has written another script, so I want to read it."

 Chen Bige smiled and said, "I thought you were going to add a new item to your huge plan to be shot."

Lu Yanhe immediately said: "Sister Bi Ge, in my huge waiting list, there are two movies starring you."

Chen Bige: "It's only now that I realized how laborious it is to prepare a movie from scratch. In the past, I just received the script and only prepared for the performance. When the time came, I would join the set and leave after filming. Acting thing.”

Wang Zhong smiled, raised his hand and nodded at Chen Bige, "Yan He is such a thief. After using a script to get you on board, he ran away and asked you to take the helm."

Lu Yanhe quickly excused himself and said, "Director, I didn't mean that. It's just that Sister Bi Ge knows many more people in this industry than me. It's easier for her to find people with the script than it is for me."

Chen Bige chuckled lightly and said, "Let's just talk about it privately. I know how many people outside are jealous of me. Just tailor-make a script for me and give me full power. This kind of trust is rare, little one." Lu, aren’t you afraid that I will screw up your script?”

"You are Chen Bige, how could you let the project you starred in be messed up." Lu Yanhe said calmly, "Your name is more precious than mine."

Chen Bige made three consecutive noises.

"I don't accept such unreasonable flattery." Chen Bige glanced at Lu Yanhe, "I just debuted a few years longer than you. When I was your age, I didn't know what I was doing."

Lu Yanhe asked: "As for the warlord in this short film, do you have a director?"

 “I haven’t thought of it yet, do you have any recommendations?”

"I would like to recommend Teacher Jiang Jun." Lu Yanhe said frankly, "With his acting skills, there is definitely no problem in playing this kind of role. Because of his previous surgery, many producers were afraid to use him. This time, "Seventeen" "Layer" has become popular. I heard that some people still have concerns. I want everyone to see that the surgery has not affected him. "

 Chen Bige, who has also worked with Jiang Jun, heard this and said helpfully: "Jiang Jun's acting skills really have no problem handling this kind of role."

Seeing that both of them had said this, Wang Chong nodded and said, "Then ask him to come."

-

Jiang Jun had a very eye-catching performance in the drama "Seventeen Floors" and was highly discussed. However, in terms of the degree of eye-catching of the character, it was still occupied by Chen Bige and others.

This drama is very popular now, and the teams of various companies are not idle.

　　Before, I was worried that this drama was not popular enough and marketing would be useless. Now I am trying every means to gain greater benefits from this popular drama.

Lu Yanhe and Chen Bige themselves have the best character highlights and scenes, and they are "recommended" by the platform, so the investment in this aspect is relatively small.

 For Li Yuefeng, Shen Yue, and Lin Chan, this can be said to be their most important battlefield this year.

If they can rely on this drama to come up with a few topics that really break the circle, then they can reap more dividends.

 This is true whether it is to further improve your status or other aspects.

Jiang Jun's age is here, and the role he plays is not an "idol-type" role that is "very popular". The agency does not feel that he is worthy of a large amount of investment in exchange for greater commercial value.

 So, although the audience who watched this drama knew him and liked his performance, they were not effectively converted into his fans.

Of course, because this drama is indeed very popular, even if he doesn't attract fans, he can still get some dividends from the drama "Seventeenth Floor". At least, there are many more programs to invite him.

Jiang Jun pushed a lot.

Lu Yanhe felt strange when he heard about this.

Although Teacher Jiang Jun is not that short of money, this is not a matter of lack of money, but the exposure opportunity that he finally got. If Teacher Jiang Jun can seize this publicity window, maybe his popularity will increase significantly. Interception is also very helpful for him to take on the next role.

Lu Yanhe went to ask Teacher Jiang Jun why he didn’t accept those programs?

 He thought Jiang Jun was somewhat noble as an actor.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Jun said: ""Seventeenth Floor" has not finished broadcasting yet, but these programs that come to me all hope that I can appear in the character style in "Seventeenth Floor", and I can appear in "Seventeenth Floor" as the character in "Seventeenth Floor". I wanted to play a role in recording the show, so I refused. This was not good and would affect the audience’s experience watching "Seventeen Floors".

After Lu Yanhe listened to Jiang Jun’s explanation, he only had one feeling in his heart: he was in awe.

  The reason why the program team would make such a request to Jiang Jun is actually because Jiang Jun himself is not famous enough and wants to use the popularity of "Seventeenth Floor" to increase topics and traffic for the program.

Jiang Jun refused to record the program in this image in order to protect his character image in "Seventeen Floors".

Lu Yanhe said: "Okay, Teacher Jiang, I understand what you said and I will learn from you."

Jiang Jun smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not worth learning from."

Lu Yanhe: "I have learned a lot from you, Teacher Jiang. I am calling you today because I have another thing. I want you to help me play a role."

Jiang Jun: "Okay, I will take over your "Squid Game" and "Wulin Gaiden" later. There are no other projects. There is always time. You can just greet me."

Jiang Jun agreed without even asking a question.

"Teacher Jiang, it's a short film, not a TV series." Lu Yanhe said, "Director Wang Zhong, Sister Bi Ge and I have a movie to make. Before that, we want to make a short film to see how it feels and give it a try. There is a role of a warlord that doesn’t have many roles, but it requires a lot of actors, so I want to ask you to help out. "

“Yo, such a big lineup.” Jiang Jun said with a smile, “I’m taking advantage of you again.”

“You’re taking advantage.” Lu Yanhe said, “I’m relieved that you can help me.”

Jiang Jun smiled and said nothing more. Of course, he knew exactly what was going on.

-

Although it is a short film, it cost a lot of money to film this set of people.

Xin Zixing went to negotiate cooperation with several brands. They just wanted their own brand to appear in the film.

 But this short film is a film with the background of the Republic of China, so how can it be exposed?

Xin Zixing read the script for a long time, and continued to communicate with the director Wang Zhong's team. Finally, he got the sponsorship from a camera brand.

The premise of sponsorship is that the film’s photography equipment must use products of this brand, and after the short film is released, it must bear the name of this brand and indicate that the entire film was shot with this brand of camera.

Since this sponsorship was not enough, Xin Zixing reported to her boss and tried to secure the rest of the filming funds.

She said: "Although this is a short film, it will definitely attract a lot of attention and it will bring a lot of traffic to our Yewei.com."

In order to convince the senior management, she made three presentations before finally receiving approval for such a fund based on the reputation she had built over the past few years.

 A short film can be shot in hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions. Of course, tens of millions can be shot even in tens of millions.

In this short film, Wang Zhong was the director, and Lu Yanhe and Chen Bizheng starred in, and the remuneration of three people could not be low.

It is not known how much economic return such a short film can bring.

 Short films are different from feature films in that they do not have a mature sales channel.

Even to a large extent, short films rely on certain funds or advertising sponsorships.

 But, on the other hand, short films are the “necessary path” that many directors will go through when they first enter this industry.

　　It’s rare for a director to be able to make a feature film right out of the gate.

Especially auteur-type directors or film festival-type directors, they all start with short films.

Xin Zixing feels that "City Travel" is a stable program, but apart from that, what else can be done?

Xin Zixing came up with this short film project.

 She has combined her own advantages and strengths and has accumulated a lot of artist resources, advertiser resources and local government resources in the past few years. With that combination, the "Short Film Project" is actually the most suitable place for her to take the next step.

For example, some local governments want to shoot local promotional videos, and some advertisers want to customize advertising videos for their products, etc. These were all projects that people had approached her about and discussed cooperation with, but she didn't follow up on them because of her own work schedule at the time.

 Now Xin Zixing wants to do this.

 On the one hand, we can discover some talented and capable directors and help the industry see them through short films like this. On the other hand, she can also expand her career territory, not just limited to the field of urban documentaries.

 Huang Kairen has already made a plan to make the relationship public and is preparing to make an official announcement on Chinese Valentine's Day.

Xin Zixin thought, then she could stand beside Huang Kairen seriously.

 She didn't want others to think that she was a dodder who had to rely on Huang Kairen for her existence.

 She can also provide help to Huang Kairen.

 She has her own power.

It happened to be at this time that she learned about Lu Yanhe and Wang Zhong’s plan to try out a short film.

Xin Zixing is keenly aware that this is a good starting point for her to start the "short film project".

 So, she contacted Lu Yanhe immediately.

-

"The down payment must be made before this Friday. Sister Miao, this is not a matter of two days early and two days late. They are just waiting for our money to start the pot." Xin Zixin urged the financial department to make the payment while placing the order. Car, stepping on high heels and walking into the studio in front of me.

Lu Yanhe and the others are here today to try on makeup.

 She came here specifically to take a look.

"Hello, director." When Xin Zixing saw Wang Zhong, he immediately stretched out his hand with a smile and shook hands with Wang Zhong, "Are they putting on makeup?"

"Yes, they are still putting on makeup." Wang Zhong looked at the girl with exquisite makeup in front of him. He has been in contact with her these days and has seen this girl's execution ability. He has even had the idea to put it on her. She dug into herself.

 But after knowing his position in Yemai Network, Wang Zhong gave up his thoughts.

 There is no way anyone would leave everything in Ye Vein Network to work for him.

Xin Zixing asked: "Director, when are we going to shoot this short film?"

Wang Zhong said: "We have to wait until Xiao Lu finishes filming "River of Silence", which is estimated to be in October. After he finishes filming "River of Silence", he will also have to record the third season of "Young Days"."

Wang Zhong was actually very clear about Lu Yanhe’s arrangements behind him, and knew everything about them.

Xin Zixing nodded, "Okay, then we have plenty of time and we are not so nervous."

 At this time, Lu Yanhe and others came out.

In addition to them, there are a few other characters, although they only have one or two lines or one or two scenes, they all came here for modeling today.

Wang Zhong watched it one by one. Whether it was the requirements for details or other aspects, he did not lower his requirements because it was just a short film.

Lu Yanhe, Chen Bige and Jiang Jun talked about some things during the filming of "Seventeen Floors". I don’t know what they were talking about, but they suddenly burst into laughter.

 Everyone looked at them in surprise.

Xin Zixing noticed that the young actors looked at Lu Yanhe and others with more or less envy and yearning.

 Especially when looking at Lu Yanhe.

Compared to Lu Yanhe's age, they are only a little older, but their current status is far beyond what they can match.

Xin Zixin smiled slightly and said nothing.

 She understands their mood.

At this time, she heard Wang Zhong say to them: "Everyone, please think about it more. Don't wait for me to tell you. Although there are not many roles, if you act well, you will still get good shots. Don't waste any shot." (End of chapter)
