Chapter 288 Korean Endorsement
The set is preparing for the scenes that will be filmed soon.
This scene is one of the few long shots in the opening memories.
It's very stream-of-consciousness, just like the previous shots, which only last a few seconds, but this one is almost half a minute long.
There is also a scene story where they were teased by their classmates and a picture of them getting married was drawn on the blackboard.
The cowardly heroine Xiaoli was helpless and panicked. When the hero saw this, he did not retreat or hesitate at all. He erased the drawing on the blackboard in front of everyone and then pulled Xiaoli away.
The importance of such a scene is self-evident.
Wu Mu lay in the chair, brewing his emotions.
The situation is now very clear, and Director Lin's thoughts and ideas are almost out in the open.
Just like what he said while taking a walk yesterday, because he has more experience, he knows that love is not all about beauty, but also about various small conflicts caused by living habits and concepts.
It may be as trivial as a few extra words sent to you by a friend of the opposite sex, or she wants to chat with you more when you are playing games, a familiar action you have practiced from your ex-girlfriend.
These things cannot be controlled by him just because he has a system.
It is also difficult for him to devote himself to love as the whole or most of his life as he did when he was young.
Consider a lot and make a more careful choice.
But if you think about it more, a normal person will inevitably be moved and attracted to the beautiful opposite sex.
Director Lin is undoubtedly a very lovely and beautiful girl, although she is occasionally a little insincere and likes to hide her thoughts in inconspicuous words.
But these do not affect her charm.
Smart, generous, independent, sincere and kind to the people and things she approves of, and actually has all kinds of little girl's thoughts hidden in her heart.
Wu Mu breathed slowly and relaxed his body without any restraint, feeling his body fit against the back of the chair without any tension.
He has discovered during this period that as a natural actor, he is more likely to perform some of "his own" scenes when he is completely relaxed.
Restricted by morality, secular world and various inner concerns, many subconscious thoughts may not be one's true thoughts.
The set was quickly set up.
"Camera crew ready!"
"Everyone is in place."
"Action!"
The clapperboard slammed down.
In the classroom, the blackboard was filled with hearts and a big love umbrella, with the pink words "Congratulations on your marriage, Wu Mu and Xiao Li, you are such a perfect match" written under the umbrella.
Lin Qingyue stood in front of the blackboard with her head lowered, tears slowly gathering in her eyes.
Behind me were classmates who were watching the fun and whispering.
Wu Mu returned to the classroom from outside and his eyes first fell on his classmates.
Then he followed their gaze and saw Lin Qingyue standing in front of the blackboard.
Shame, helplessness, panic.
It’s hard to believe that I could see Lin Qingyue with this expression in real life.
Is this what she felt in junior high school?
Or is it a performance?
Wu Mu felt that he still had the energy to pull himself away a little, observed Lin Qingyue's expression, and made some guesses in his mind.
At the same time, he was observing his own reaction.
There were a lot of details, and seeing the confusion among classmates when they were making a fuss was not good.
I saw Lin Qingyue's heartbeat quickening as she stood there crying.
And the determination in his eyes now and when he walked into the classroom.
It was the first time that he discovered that he could perform so many details without using any skills.
And it's so natural.
These details are not intense, but small and inconspicuous, but they effectively build up the overall sense of the picture.
For example, Lou Ziwen kept praising the film, "This scene was shot so well, the scene where you just wiped off the blackboard and walked out holding Director Lin's hand. It was a silent sense of power! It immediately established the character's personality and the relationship between the two of you."
I don't know how Lou Ziwen turned into the captain of the praise team, and he would praise as much as he could whenever he got a shot.
But you know what, Wu Mu did notice the silent sense of power this time.
The monitor was replaying the footage of him just now, from the way he swept across the students' eyes when he entered the classroom, his not-slow but steady steps, his tense yet calm face, the silent classmates behind him, and so on, all of which showed a silent sense of power.
And the system should also think that he is quite powerful.
[Your acting skills +5]
His acting skills naturally improved.
Although he had added it several times when he played Wang Ren in previous dramas, it was always done little by little. This was the first time he added so much.
"Is there a system that despises acting skills?"
Wu Mu muttered to himself that when he was with Wang Ren before, he used all kinds of techniques and flashes of inspiration to perform, and there was no doubt that he was a thorough expressionist and method performer.
The expressionist constructs a "character image" in his mind, and then tries to imitate every move that the character might make to perform. This corresponds to his various actions of changing the script and then using techniques to act out the scenes.
The method school and the experiential school are of the same origin. They both emphasize becoming the character, thinking of yourself as the character in your mind, and reacting to situations instinctively. You cannot think about what actions are appropriate before performing each scene.
It's just that the method school can replace the emotions for the current scene with other scenes to perform. The corresponding thing is that he uses the re-enactment skills to act out drowning and use the experience with Liu Lan to act out the relationship with Lin Mo.
As for the concept of experientialism, it has been repeatedly touted in various novels, so there is no need to say more.
He just plays himself in the role, so naturally he is a genuine experientialist.
Wu Mu is very suspicious whether A Tong discriminates against the expressionists and methodists by adding so many attributes to him now.
Well, although the more likely reason is that he felt more deeply when playing himself.
After resolving these problems, Wu Mu's filming became smooth again.
The scene of the two people in the camera moves forward at a natural speed.
Although he still couldn't quite see the "feeling" that Director Lin mentioned, he started shooting every scene in one take.
Until he discovered that Director Lin began to pay close attention to the weather.
After being called out for a walk by Director Lin again and extending his hand to him.
Wu Mu held the hand that Lin Qingyue extended to him and asked curiously, "Director Lin, were you calling to ask about the weather this afternoon?"
"Well, ask a friend at the weather station when it will snow." Lin Qingyue nodded.
Ask your friends at the weather station about the weather.
"Didn't the weather forecast say it would snow on the 19th, for three days straight?"
"I'm worried it might not be accurate, so I called to confirm."
"Do you want to take pictures of the snow scene?" Wu Mu asked.
Is it still early in the story? If we shoot in chronological order, it will take at least half a month to get to the snow scene.
"Yes, I plan to shoot the scene on the train and under the cherry tree in advance, otherwise we won't have enough time."
"What time is too late?"
Lin Qingyue's eyes were full of smiles, "You'll know when the time comes."
Before the time came, Wu Muxian had two days off.
It snowed first in the neighboring Chengshan County. This is where the heroine of the movie was scheduled to transfer to, so Lin Qingyue had to go there first to shoot the exterior scenes.
It just so happens that Wu Mu can take a break and deal with the new endorsement in Korea.
Song Yuhe, overseas marketing specialist of South Korea's Yameng cosmetics brand company, got off the plane and looked at the exotic scenery around him with a helpless expression.
"Shit, I didn't expect the company would actually agree to hire that Chinese celebrity as its spokesperson."
His colleagues who were on a business trip with him were also speechless:
"It was proposed by Han Huiyuan, the director of operations. I heard that Han Huiyuan is a fan of that Chinese celebrity and is using the company's money to chase after celebrities. Manager Shen from the product department had a big fight over this and firmly opposed this at the company meeting."
The two of them were naturally from the Korean beauty company that wanted Wu Mu to be its spokesperson.
After asking for the price, I didn’t expect that the Korean company was actually interested and actually sent someone to discuss the details of the endorsement.
The team was mainly led by a team from the Operations Department, and Song Yuhe and his colleagues who had overseas experience were responsible for accompanying translation.
Although he studied Chinese in college, Song Yuhe really didn't know who this Chinese star was.
I only found out about it after I heard the news in the company and went to check it out.
Then I was immediately shocked when I checked it.
It would be fine if he was just a Chinese star who is unknown in Korea.
This star has also offended domestic superstars Yi Junxi and Li Zhengxun?
Is there even a risk of being boycotted by domestic netizens because of their patriotism?
The company is crazy! ?
This was the first thought that came to Song Yuhe's mind after learning this.
The president is confused! ?
This is a second thought.
Damn Han Huiyuan is such a bad woman, using the company's money to chase stars for her!
This is the third idea.
Song Yuhe felt that any normal person would be able to see the risks involved.
Isn't it obvious that this has no benefits and is also a huge risk?
What benefits will it bring to their company's products if they invite such a Chinese star?
Not a single benefit at all!
But instead, he will be hated by fans of Yi Junxi and Li Zhengxun.
There is no telling how many fans these two have in China. Isn’t the company afraid of being boycotted by their fans?
And if the matter gets out of hand and someone uses your nationality to get involved in something, it will be even more troublesome.
If rumors spread that a Chinese celebrity was insulting the country, the company would suffer serious consequences.
Song Yuhe really couldn't understand why the company could be so foolish as to make such a decision.
The people from the operations department did not start from the same place as them, so Song Yuhe and his colleagues first arrived at the Beijing International Airport and waited for a while in the airport terminal before they were met by the company's operations team.
The company's operations team consists of five people, led by a fashionable young woman wearing sunglasses and with bright red hair.
Is this the bad woman Han Huiyuan?
The president believes that this kind of woman will destroy the company sooner or later.
Song Yuhe muttered to himself.
But what does that have to do with a small soldier like him?
He nodded and bowed to greet her. "Director Han, you have worked hard. I am Song Yuhe from the Overseas Marketing Department. Please let me know if you have anything to say."
Han Huiyuan nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Commissioner Song."
She didn't know that the Commissioner Song in front of her had just been teasing her behind her back.
But even if I knew, I wouldn't care.
Of course she knew about some of the rumors in the company. After all, after she proposed to invite the Chinese star Wu Mu to be the spokesperson, the product manager came out and had a big argument with her, and even attacked her for using the company's money to chase stars.
Humph, what a slander!
It’s true that she is a fan of Wu Mu, but she made this plan purely out of public interest!
"Is this Brother Wu Mu's company?" She looked at the office building in front of her and asked Song Yuhe beside her.
"Yes, we have contacted their company in advance. It's here."
"Okay, then you contact the people in their company and tell them that we arrived early and ask them to come out and show us the way." Han Huiyuan nodded.
Then she casually took out her phone, took a photo of the office building in front of her, and sent it to a small group she had joined with a caption, "I have arrived at Wu Mu's company. Is there anyone who needs Wu Mu's autograph? I can ask Wu Mu for you later."
"You said you want me to endorse a new overseas product line for your company? But the additional condition is that you want me to cooperate with you and participate in a few variety shows?"
Wu Mu looked at the fans in front of him and was slightly stunned.
At first, he had a very ordinary impression of these little fairy fans.
But after listening to the detailed introduction of this little fairy fan, he found that this little fairy fan didn't seem to be just a little fairy, there seemed to be something else.
"Yes, our company plans to expand into overseas markets. The markets we are currently targeting are the Chinese, Japanese and Korean markets. We would like to invite you to be the spokesperson for our new product line."
"The only variety show we have scheduled so far is a Korean variety show sponsored by our product, but we will probably add a few Japanese shows later on, and the details can be discussed later."
Han Huiyuan is naturally not a fan of any fairy.
Although she really liked this Chinese star who was a little too dazzling, she asked Wu Mu to be the spokesperson out of consideration for the interests of their company.
If it weren't for considerations of profit, their president wouldn't be stupid enough to agree to invite a star like Wu Mu.
If this happened to a celebrity with a little fame in China, people might be able to be deceived, but this is a Chinese celebrity who is completely unknown in China, and no one in their right mind would agree to it.
She convinced the president with a solid plan.
The people below her didn't understand, but she, as a senior executive, knew very well that the company's performance had been in a dilemma of continuous decline. If it didn't find new growth points quickly, it would only fall into a slow death.
The overseas market is the new growth point that the company is targeting.
Then, when it came to choosing someone to be the spokesperson for the overseas product line, she thought of Wu Mu.
But normally speaking, choosing Wu Mu is definitely not a good choice.
At least it seems that there are no advantages, only disadvantages.
But what if Wu Mu cooperated with their company to appear on a variety show?
This thought came to her mind after she finished watching Wu Mu's variety show.
