Chapter 298 Becoming the Next Jiang Yiyan
It's around 4 .
Xu Kun and Liu Haibo watched the replay several times and felt that there was no problem, so they decided to return to Beijing.
Tang Yan thought that the opportunity had finally come, and he mustered up the courage to hug Xu Kun's thigh.
Unexpectedly, the E280 used for filming was taken directly to the crew for maintenance, and Xu Kun got into Liu Haibo's car.
Tang Yan, the heroine who only contributed her beautiful legs throughout the whole process, could only ride in a van with the crew.
Not to mention how depressed Tang Yan was.
However, Xu Kun and Liu Haibo were traveling together, so naturally they couldn't help but talk about things in the circle, especially the digital film series that Xu Kun took the initiative to undertake.
"I heard you say that Zhao Wenzhuo took the initiative to come to you and ask for cooperation a while ago, but you rejected him?"
"I didn't refuse."
Xu Kun said helplessly: "The main reason is that we didn't reach an agreement on the price. Even if Zhao Wenzhuo's salary was reduced by half, the movie channel couldn't afford it. I wanted to get more funds by advertising, but someone was trying to stop me."
"Hahaha~"
Liu Haibo smiled gloatingly and said, "They are directly under the Central Propaganda Department. Do you think they can do whatever they want, just like we do when we make movies? If it were so easy to get by in the system, those big directors wouldn't have gone into the entertainment industry."
Indeed, when he had previously come into contact with leaders from Beijing and Taiwan, he had already felt the difference between being inside the system and being outside the system.
However, because of their close relationship, Jingtai was not as domineering as the Sixth Princess, so the feelings were not very deep.
It was not until this collaboration with the Sixth Princess that I truly understood what it meant to be an official with two mouths.
Just on the issue of whether or not to attract advertising, we held five or six meetings but still couldn't reach a consensus. The most infuriating thing is that some people used Deng Yancheng as an example, saying that Director Deng didn't attract advertising sponsorship, but his filming was still going smoothly?
Doesn’t Deng Yancheng want to get advertising sponsorship?
He doesn't have that ability!
It dragged on for two weeks, and Zhao Wenzhuo backed out, so the matter ended up in nothing.
"So who are the candidates now?"
"One is Zhou Qunda, who is highly recommended by Hong Kong Island. He is not very famous and was just a minor actor before. His advantage is that his salary is very low. The other is Shi Xiaolong, who is famous enough and has good skills. Moreover, he is in a period of transformation, so his salary is also very low, but..."
"Just what?"
"It's just that her height is a little off, and her facial features are childish - and I'm suffering from acne recently. Although it's not serious, I'm afraid I won't be able to control it while taking pictures."
"and then?"
"Then there are a few selected from the auditions. Some of them have good looks and acting skills, and there are even B-tier actors who are willing to reduce their pay. But the problem is that the fighting scenes in these dramas are very important, and I don't have time to wait for their training..."
"Is there no one from a martial arts school?"
"Yes, but his acting is too stiff, and his appearance... Actually, Zhao Wenzhuo is quite suitable, but it's a pity..."
"Why don't you contact Hainan Zhou Yi?"
"Book of Changes?"
"It's the company that filmed "Water Moon Winter" and "Legend of the Spirit Mirror". I heard that several of their leading actors are martial arts heroes - it seems that the boss lady likes this type."
Xu Kun had heard of this rumor before, but because Zhou Yi was far away in Hainan, he had never thought about it before.
"Then I'll go back and ask someone."
Xu Kun reached out and patted Liu Haibo's shoulder while he was driving, and sighed, "It's true that having an old person in the family is like having a treasure."
"Get lost! I'm only five years older than you!"
"That person is already approaching 40."
"What the hell..."
They chatted and laughed all the way, and when they returned to the city, he asked Zhu Yawen to prepare meals for the staff and crew, and then the two of them went to a nearby pub.
The advertising crew was not short of money, and the evening lunch box was quite sumptuous, with plenty of rice, four dishes, two meat and two vegetable, and a mushroom soup.
But Tang Yan found the food tasteless.
After a day's schedule, she found that she could only talk to Director Xu in the car, as they seemed to be from two different worlds at other times.
And the "hints" that I had rehearsed in advance were worthless in front of Director Xu. Yes, what kind of people are there in the Teddy Sisters Group?
I also want to play hard to get and lure Director Xu into taking the initiative. Isn't this pure fantasy?
No~
I must seize the opportunity in tomorrow's 'Kung Fu Episode', otherwise wouldn't this advertisement be shot in vain?
But "Kung Fu" is different from "The Movie". Director Xu will not be in the car at all, and he only has one shot of getting out of the car.
There was no private time at all during the whole process. I couldn't just throw myself into his arms in front of the entire crew, right? !
"Everyone~"
Tang Yan was poking at the rice in confusion when he heard Zhu Yawen clapping his hands and saying, "Brother Kun just said that there are a lot of transfers today, and we can't let everyone work in vain. Everyone will get an extra 300 yuan red envelope. Don't forget to come to me to get the money after dinner."
Amidst the cheers from the crowd, only Tang Yan had no reaction.
How can you say that you are not working in vain?
What can you do with three hundred dollars?
After finishing his meal, Tang Yan returned to the Central Academy of Drama with a red envelope of 300 yuan. Looking up from the bottom of the dormitory building, he saw that the bedrooms of the senior class were all dark, except for his own dormitory, which had lights on.
Could it be that people from other dormitories have already found the crew recently?
Tang Yan felt more and more upset.
When I got upstairs and absentmindedly opened the dormitory door, I found that more than a dozen heads turned to me at the same time - it turned out that most of the female students in the class were in this room.
"This is what you are doing?"
Tang Yan subconsciously stopped at the door and asked in confusion.
"Nothing, just chatting casually." Guo Zhenni smiled and pushed her to sit on the bed, and asked curiously: "How was the filming of the commercial? Did you talk to Director Xu?"
After hearing these words and looking at the eager and jealous eyes of the crowd, Tang Yan still didn't understand what they were here for.
She immediately shook her head and sighed, "It's not that easy to talk to Director Xu. There were so many people talking before I got on the bus, and when I got on the bus, there was a camera hanging in the middle, and I couldn't even see Director Xu's face."
"Why is this so?"
Guo Zhenni showed disappointment on her face, but the corners of her mouth were harder to suppress than AK's.
Others also tried to comfort Tang Yan, but how sincere their words were was only known to them.
After everyone finished their performances, Tang Yan suddenly changed the subject and said, "Fortunately, after we finished filming the first segment, the camera moved back half a meter when we changed scenes. Then Director Xu and I drove to the suburbs together and chatted for more than an hour on the way."
"Really, really?!"
Everyone was a little nervous now, and someone hurriedly asked, "What did Director Xu say to you?"
"It was just a casual chat. Director Xu still remembered that I had auditioned for "Heavenly Sword" and said that we were destined to be together. Last time, Director Xu and Director Liu Haibo collaborated on "Heavenly Sword", and this time they are collaborating on the commercial again."
Tang Yan's words were full of hints, and many people's eyes turned red with jealousy.
Some people asked in disbelief: "What exactly did you say? Can you teach us?"
"Well, just chatting about all sorts of things."
Tang Yan shook his hands and changed the subject, asking, "What were you talking about just now?"
"There was nothing to talk about. What about Wen Zhang? Wasn't he in the crew of Struggle a while ago, butting heads with Deng Chao? I heard they were evenly matched!"
"There's nothing we can do about it. Boss is really too popular. Even though Deng Chao plays the leading male role, he may not be as popular as Wen Zhang in terms of national popularity."
"Zhang Wen's acting in "Boss" is really brilliant. He makes people love and hate him. When he took nude photos of Lin Yuxin and went to threaten Meng Hao, I wanted Meng Hao to beat him to death. But when he was hit by a car and died, I felt that he was quite pitiful."
"Once 'Struggle' is broadcast, he will probably become even more popular..."
"Oh, I wish I hadn't gone out to film when I auditioned for 'Swords of Legends'."
"Tang Yan, you have to seize this opportunity. Whoever Director Xu promotes becomes popular. Take Jiang Yiyan for example. She was criticized by Liu Yifei's fans after she appeared on "A Date with Lu Yu". But now she is fighting with Liu Yifei."
The rest were just meaningless gossip, but Tang Yan took the last sentence to heart.
To put it another way, if I don’t seize this opportunity, I will probably become a laughing stock among my classmates in the future.
Tang Yan gritted his teeth secretly and decided that no matter what, he would cling to Director Xu's thigh tomorrow and become the next Jiang Yiyan!
