Director Loves No One
Chapter 38:
The crew of "Wu Dao" had an accident. Wang Fengtian and others soon learned the news that the producers and producers would not stay on the set all the time. They could only listen to other people's reports remotely, and now they can't get involved.
In the meeting room, Wang Fengtian was surprised after hearing Hou Shenyue's words, and he immediately said anxiously: "How is the situation now?"
Hou Shenyue: "When the explosion happened at the scene, it was quite scary. It felt like sparks were floating in the sky. Director Chu asked our actors and staff to take refuge in the distance. She took people to check the explosion site, not sure about the current situation... …"
Hou Shenyue recalled the lingering fear of the sudden blasting. The scene was a little chaotic. Fortunately, Director Chu was still calm, and she quickly reorganized order.
Wang Fengtian frowned, and said in a hurry: "Yes, Shen Yue, please calm everyone's emotions first. I will buy a ticket and fly over now..."
Hou Shenyue: "Okay, everyone has calmed down a lot."
Xia Hong listened to the exchange of information between the two. He called Chu Xiaxing and was unavailable, and then contacted Zhou Xuelu, but the other party didn't know the situation of Director Chu, and said helplessly: "I can't contact Director Chu."
Wang Fengtian: "Hey, she is probably too busy to take care of her mobile phone. This kind of thing is particularly troublesome!"
Wang Fengtian now dare not be too optimistic about the situation of the crew. He has no objection to Chu Xiaxing's director ability, but he is really not sure whether she can preside over the overall situation at this time. After all, it was an accidental explosion on the set. A male production director in his forties or fifties might be frightened by the scene, let alone a little girl?
Wang Fengtian didn't even pack his luggage, so he bought a plane ticket and went to the studio. Other people in the company were equally worried, and they couldn't figure out the situation of the crew. After Han Chuning learned the news, she wanted to contact Chu Xiaxing, but the aunt still did not answer.
On the remote Gobi, the vehicles of the "Wu Dao" crew drove back to the set in an orderly manner, leaving several traces of cars in the afterglow of the setting sun. The crew was filming in a crowded place, and the blasting basically did not affect ordinary people, but it took a lot of effort to send the wounded to the nearby hospital, and the sky was close to each other.
Chu Xiaxing looked sideways at the sunset outside the car window. She was numb and exhausted at this time. After handling the trivial chores following the blasting, she was finally able to relax slightly from the tight state.
The production kid on the co-pilot asked, "Guide, would you like something to eat? I just bought bread."
Chu Xiaxing has been dealing with the wounded and the crew. She never drank a sip of water throughout the process, until now the dust settled. Because she was busy with the production crew to the end, the production staff now see her a lot of closeness, not only because of the respect for the leader, but also a kind of deadly friendship.
Chu Xiaxing shook her head. Now she is exhausted physically and mentally, and she has no appetite: "I don't want to eat."
Producer: "The person from the company just called me and said that Mr. Wang is coming by plane, let me tell you..."
Chu Xiaxing: "Okay." She actually felt that Wang Fengtian didn't need to come over, she had already handled the matter, and there was not much work left.
When Chu Xiaxing was reminded by the producer, she took out her mobile phone to check it, but found that the phone was blown up. There were Zhou Xuelu and Cao Yangang in the crew, as well as Xia Hong and Han Chuning who were far away from the company. It is a missed call.
She roughly knows their concerns and what they want to ask, and now she has no interest in calling back a reply. She was about to turn off the screen of her mobile phone, but suddenly she found a WeChat message from "Buddha", which was quite long.
Song Wenye's writing is much calmer and clearer, not the worries and concerns of twittering, it is clear and hierarchical at a glance. He first informed Wang Fengtian about the arrival of the crew and the insurance of the crew, and then said that several joint investment companies are scheduled to meet tomorrow. If the current set cannot be filmed, then they will switch to the city to change to other content, and they will negotiate compensation and costs. budget.
He probably guessed that she didn't have time to make a call, so she simply edited it into a message and listed the follow-up plan clearly, so that the effect of information exchange was achieved in one go.
Chu Xiaxing whispered: "As expected, he can be a senior executive, and his reports are more organized than others..."
Chu Xiaxing couldn't reply to other people now, because she didn't have the energy to deal with their coldness and worry, and was full of worry. Everyone cared about her very much, but in fact she couldn't help much. She had just finished her work, and she didn't have the energy to respond.
Song Wenye's news is to make up for the deficiencies in the follow-up blasting. It is somewhat practical for her now, and Chu Xiaxing also replied casually: [Received. ]
After Chu Xiaxing finished posting, Song Wenye responded quickly, and the news was no longer related to work.
[Eat regularly and pay attention to your body. ]
Chu Xiaxing caught a glimpse of the news and did not reply again. She pondered for a few seconds, looked at the co-pilot's producer, and said, "You can get me a piece of bread. I will just give it a bite."
"Okay! I still have juice!" The producer was overjoyed when he heard this, and enthusiastically promoted Chu Xiaxing.
Chu Xiaxing was not in the mood to eat at first, but she felt hungry after chewing two mouthfuls. She felt like she was returning to the world, and she felt a lot more relaxed. Food intake may relieve stress. She has the strength to reply to her worried relatives and friends only after the meal, and she called Han Chuning and others to report safety and comfort the scared children.
After Wang Fengtian arrived on the crew, he was completely convinced by Chu Xiaxing, because the matter has been handled in an orderly manner, and the filming will still be possible tomorrow. Wang Fengtian admired and said in gratitude: "This time I really thank the guide Chu..."
Before, Wang Fengtian only regarded Chu Xiaxing as a talented young director, but now he really regards her as his peer. Some people run right away when they encounter trouble, otherwise they are at a loss, and they are really not very reliable at the critical moment. Everyone just came out to work, and most people are unwilling to take responsibility. Who dares to take responsibility?
Chu Xiaxing didn't claim the credit. She calmly said, "It's because everyone responds quickly, but the executive director can't come back right away. The subsequent shooting tasks will be a bit heavy."
The executive director sometimes needs to replace the director to shoot part of the content, so the early communication and running-in are very important. Sudden shortage of personnel in the middle means that the amount of shooting unexpectedly increases. Of course, Chu Xiaxing can find another one to perform, but newcomers always need time to adapt, unless the people who come are familiar with the project.
Wang Fengtian: "I still have to choose the people you are used to in execution. Do you have anyone to recommend?"
Chu Xiaxing: "Teacher Wang, on the day we watched the sample, there was a director named Luo Kun."
Chu Xiaxing thinks that the best solution is to choose a director who has filmed "Wu Dao" samples. This should be able to work immediately.
Wang Fengfeng was taken aback when he heard the words, and he thoughtfully said: "I know Luo Kun, but he didn't execute it very early, and are you sure you can get along with him?"
Of course, Wang Fengtian could come forward and invite Luo Kun, but he was afraid that the two directors would pinch the crew. Although Chu Xiaxing is the director in name, Luo Kun has always been a person with ideas. Wang Fengtian is afraid that she will ask for trouble, and then there will be no room for two tigers.
Chu Xiaxing categorically said: "It's okay, and he's not a target, as long as he can work."
Wang Fengtian smiled bitterly: "Why are you more like a capitalist than me? Obviously I am the producer."
Seeing that Chu Xiaxing had an idea, Wang Fengtian thought that she had handled the blasting incident well, and his trust rose suddenly, so he came forward to contact Luo Kun. Luo Kun was in a low mood for a while after losing the election. Now he received a phone call from Wang Fengtian. Although Mr. Wang said that it was a rescue operation, he still happily agreed.
In the crew, it didn’t take long for Chu Xiaxing to see the director of The Wandering Wind last time. She couldn’t help feeling complicated, and sighed: “You are really real. I let you do it is an insult. Teacher Wang asked you to do it. Willing to come?"
Luo Kunshang recalled her invitation, and he showed the appearance of a chaste man, full of humiliated indignation.
Luo Kun would not say that he was stubborn after being defeated, and for a while he had no intention of filming, but he had no chance to get up again, and even regretted rejecting Chu Xiaxing. If he came to "Wu Dao" for execution, he would at least know where the gap was between the two sides, but at that moment he missed the opportunity because of his self-esteem. Fortunately, Wang Fengtian invited him for the second time!
Luo Kun is now invited by Wang Fengtian, and his self-esteem has been preserved. He confidently said: "I have come to prove to Teacher Wang that he can shoot better than you."
Luo Kun regained the aura of a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers. He was no longer as sluggish as when he first met, and got up wherever he planned to fall.
Chu Xiaxing was not sure at first whether Luo Kun would come. She now took a high look at his resilience, but on the surface she chuckled and said, "Then you are here for nothing."
Luo Kun is indeed ready to come here. He is quite familiar with the script of "Wu Dao", and he has experience in directing, so he can be said to be handy in execution. If you ignore his faint desire for Chu Xiaxing to win or lose, this person can be regarded as a perfect substitute, even better than his predecessor.
Luo Kun occasionally expressed some insights on the pictures, and Chu Xiaxing listened calmly, leaving everyone in the crew confused.
Zhou Xuelu looked at the scene, and she felt a little confused: "Does Director Chu have a good relationship with the new executive? Does she need to listen to his opinions?"
Zhou Xuelu has never seen other executive directors think so much, and naturally does not understand Chu Xiaxing's tolerance.
Cao Yangang scratched his head and said, "It should be considered average, the boss didn't scold him."
Cao Yangang has his own opinion verification system, "the director has not scolded" is equivalent to "the relationship is quite ordinary."
At first, Luo Kun only expressed his opinions on the minutiae. Sometimes Chu Xiaxing would adopt his ideas, and they were still in peace, but the two sides soon encountered a scene with big differences and wanted to adopt different shooting methods.
Luo Kun originally watched silently from the side of the set. He waited until work breaks before giving his opinion and shook his head and said, "The filming of the scene just now was too peaceful. You must have not enough shots when editing, and there are really few sceneries."
Chu Xiaxing: "Enough."
Luo Kun: "Not enough, the rhythm of this scene is fast, the drama is strong, and the shots are more..."
Chu Xiaxing glanced at him and offered to offer: "Why don't you take a photo and let everyone choose a version?"
Luo Kun didn't expect her to be so generous, he was suspicious for a while, and said in surprise: "...You are so easy to talk?"
Many directors are stubborn and stubborn. They don't listen to anyone's opinions. There are few such peaceful types.
Chu Xiaxing nodded calmly, and then smiled: "But if your version fails the election, it will be a waste of everyone's time. You have to buy water for the entire crew, otherwise I will do it."
When Luo Kun thought about the crew of two to three hundred people, how much money he could spend, he immediately said, "Okay!"
Chu Xiaxing immediately gave way, Luo Kun rolled up his sleeves and took the camera. The two sides each cut out a rough edition, and let the creators choose during the lunch break. This is a heavy scene about the psychological changes of the protagonist Wu Shu. There is a fierce emotional struggle in his heart, and the suspenseful plot has been pushed to the highest point, which is a small climax.
Luo Kun's version has complicated shots and editing. He feels that his rhythm is particularly good, and he uses a variety of scenes to create a strong atmosphere. Chu Xiaxing's version appears simple and unpretentious. The lens basically focuses on Wu Shu's face, and even the sceneries have not changed. It can be said to be uncut.
Everyone was watching in the crew's screening room, and the huge screen completely presented the picture.
Luo Kun felt that Chu Xiaxing had too few shots at the scene, especially when the picture looked flat on the monitor. He was already confident after putting his own version, but now looking at Chu Xiaxing's version, he faintly felt something wrong, and couldn't help asking: "...wait, is this her original version?"
The editor with the group looked up confused and explained: "Yes, Director Chu never moved the camera."
Seeing his reaction, Chu Xiaxing couldn't help but jokingly said: "What? Do you still suspect that I am doing tricks?"
She didn't really talk to Luo Kun at the scene, mainly because she knew that many things were put on the real screen to be convincing, otherwise the simple explanation would be meaningless.
Luo Kun took a deep breath. He looked at the screen and felt more and more uncomfortable. He was shocked to miss a lot of details!
The dull and unwavering picture on the monitor entered the dimly lit projection room, suddenly showing many undetectable contents on the set.
The huge screen makes Hou Shenyue's performance more profound. The subtle tremors and changes in his expression are quite shocking, coupled with the flickering electric light behind him, has naturally created an atmosphere. This scene no longer needs too much editing, the performance and lighting of the actors are powerful enough!
The size of the screen has a great influence on people's viewing. The screen of the set monitor is much smaller than the screen of the projection room. Luo Kun only felt the boring of the lens at that time. He didn't expect the screen size to change after the screening. His own editing looks garish in contrast. There is a feeling of dazzling skills in the screening room. It is estimated that it will only be more obvious in the cinema!
Before everyone voted, Luo Kun got up in a desperate manner and said in frustration: "I'm going to buy water for everyone, what do you want to drink?"
Luo Kun was the one who was willing to lose in the gambling. He was defeated by Chu Xiaxing the second time, and fell into a little depression again. Because he put forward different opinions and wasted the time of other staff members, now he is getting more and more gloomy and feeling dull.
Chu Xiaxing watched him return to malaise, and she calmly persuaded: "There is no right or wrong in art discussion. I just hope you will have the courage to speak next time, and no one will laugh at your thoughts."
"You can also express your opinions in the future, and we can still discuss like today. The big deal is to buy water for the crew."
Luo Kun was originally uncomfortable. Seeing that Chu Xiaxing was so generous, he suddenly felt a touch of emotion in his heart, and even felt that he was petty, and whispered, "I'm going to buy water."
Luo Kun ran out for a while, not knowing how to face Director Chu.
In the screening room, Zhou Xuelu was a little bit dissatisfied, she said, "Dr. Chu, why are you so accustomed to him? Why do you ask him to continue to comment?"
Chu Xiaxing had just been a gentle master, but now she changed her face and said shamelessly: "This is not so much that you can drink cold drinks every day, and the free water doesn't taste good!"
Chu Xiaxing didn't care about Luo Kun's comments on the camera. She had already figured out what drink to specify next time!
Zhou Xuelu was a bit unfair at first, when she heard Director Chu's deceptive remarks, she suddenly felt sympathy for Luo Kun: "..."
Zhou Xuelu: So it turns out that Director Luo was paying back money for the execution of the crew?
