With Wu Di's playful smile, Lanmasanti didn't know what to say.
no way.
There's really no way.
"It's good that you can think openly. However, he is not the only person I want to introduce to you, but also the big shots of the film festival. You can also get to know him if you have the opportunity."
"Although those people have great arrogance, they may not take young people like you seriously, but that doesn't matter. Their ideas are theirs, and your efforts are yours."
"If you are going to continue to make commercial films in the future, it doesn't matter whether you are friends with these people or not."
"Because you won't be able to use their personal resources. However, if you still want to make some literary and genre films in the future, it will be very beneficial to start working hard and accumulating resources from now on."
Ever since mother and son met, Wu Di was certain that this was the first time that Lanmasanti had told him so much professional knowledge in the industry.
These principles seem very simple. Do some people still dislike things like connections?
Isn’t everyone welcome?
The more the better, the more the better.
However, as you and I both realize, it will be difficult for you to move forward without someone to guide you.
Take Xiao Qi for example. It can be said that Wu Di is definitely a noble person in his career development, although Wu Di doesn't know how much Xiao Qi personally knows about this current situation.
How in-depth, but the reason is very obvious. If it were not for Wu Di, it would not be that easy for Xiao Qi to win awards and to have a name in the industry so quickly.
Even if your movie is good, so what?
Can you really pass through to the main competition?
Are you really that strong?
In fact, this problem is not just for Xiao Qi, it is the same for many fledgling directors, or for some winners of the film festival where the competition is not very fierce.
Is it true that if he or they can win the award, there is no influence from off-site factors?
Without Wu Di's repeated help, Xiao Qi's current performance in the sub-sub-sub unit would be considered a breakthrough achievement.
For a newcomer like him, it's enough to brag about.
And now, he is able to soar into the sky. Of course, Wu Di has a great contribution to this. It can even be said that the contribution of the two people is basically equal to 40 or 60 in terms of winning the maze award.
right.
Fourth is Xiao Qi, and sixth is Wu Di.
No matter how good your movie is, if no one appreciates it, what's the use?
This is the power of connections.
Fundamentally speaking, it is Xiao Qi who benefits the most from Wu Di's connections.
After all, what we won was the director award, and it is still unknown whether Wu Di will continue to be a director in the future.
Even if he is a mixed actor, he will probably only film one film every now and then, and will not focus on his career as a director. But Xiao Qi is different.
It is impossible for him to change careers, and his conditions do not support it, so he can only continue to be a director. So, if his debut film wins the Grand Prize at the Water City Film Festival, such a golden sign can ensure that several of his films will have a certain audience.
Unexpectedly, Ms. Lan still has so many human resources in her hands, so Wu Di will have to be more diligent.
Although as Ms. Lan said, the films he is currently filming are mainly incompatible with the film festival.
However, once more young directors are recruited in the future, and Xiao Qi himself is basically locked in to follow Wu Di in his next movie, it is very likely that these people will need these network resources.
Of course, for Xiao Qi personally, it may not have much effect in a short period of time, and the three majors are not fools.
They rarely award the grand prize to someone who has just won a similar award recently. In other words, you, Xiao Qi, have already gained something in Shuicheng this year.
Next year, no matter how good your work is, it will be extremely difficult to get into Cannes.
There is still a tacit understanding among the three majors.
Even if you sign up, the most it will give you is a chance to nominate, which is already the greatest comfort to you.
Don't even think about winning.
…………
"Why did Ms. Lan really not give me any money when I said she didn't want any money?"
"I'm so sad. I have to pay for it myself. It makes my heart hurt just thinking about it."
Although he pretended to be a man in front of his mother, when he returned home and saw Xiao Fengfeng, Wu Di immediately showed his true colors.
Zhang Feng looked at him helplessly: "Who can be blamed?"
"It's not you who has to pull the strings at the critical moment."
"You are such an interesting person. You even went to Han Jing to raise money. If you want money, just go to Ms. Lan directly. You are one of our own, why should you be embarrassed?"
"You still have to cause trouble."
The seemingly calm words made Wu Di suddenly become confused.
"what's the situation?"
"How did you know that I went to see Han Jing?"
If you don’t say that Wu Di is sometimes speechless, you can call him smart. He is really smart and flexible.
But sometimes, there is always a sense of stupidity revealed intentionally or unintentionally.
real.
Extremely silly.
The silly bubbling kind.
"Boss Wu, can you please wake up?"
"Don't Han Jing have my contact information?"
"Do you think he won't tell me such an important thing?"
"This Han Jing is really not a man. Isn't it interesting?"
It's not that Wu Di is deliberately looking for trouble, it's actually Han Jing's behavior that is somewhat bullying. Indeed, everyone is in the same circle, and you can always find someone if you want to contact him.
However, Zhang Feng's movies belong to Zhang Feng, and Wu Di's movies belong to Wu Di. Even if the two are husband and wife, in a business context, different projects should be discussed separately.
"You still have the nerve to tell others, aren't you asking for this?"
"Who told you not to use your brain before doing things?"
"It seems that I should be more careful in the future. The scope of our circle of friends is really too small. We can't hide even the smallest bit of information and leak it everywhere."
"However, I'm not angry either. Anyway, I have already obtained the money and my biggest goal has been achieved. So why does it matter if he talks about me behind his back?"
"I won't lose a piece of meat."
Now that he was exposed, Wu Di simply acted like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water.
"Aren't you being a rogue?"
"Originally, I thought that if you were short of money, I would be able to support you. Since you are so sure, it saves me the trouble."
Zhang Feng took out a bank card and waved it in front of Wu Di's eyes. When Wu Di saw this, his face suddenly changed.
"No, honey."
"I raised these funds just to boost the box office. If you have money, give it to me. More is never too much, and less is never too little."
"hehe."
"You have defrauded Han Jing of his money, so I will be exempted from this!"
With that said, Zhang Feng withdrew his bank card. How could she do this?
Or, don't mention it, and if you do mention it, just hand over the money. Wouldn't this be better?
This made Wu Di very suspicious that there was no money in this card at all.
No money!
"What are your recent plans?"
"All the inventory in hand has been filmed, and it will be released one after another. What are your next plans?"
"I've been resting for almost a month now. It's almost done. Don't be too lazy, you're young."
The way Zhang Feng looked at Wu Di was a bit weird, as if Wu Di was some kind of frail grandfather.
Boss Wu was helpless.
"I haven't been resting all the time. I'm shooting all the advertisements and magazines. Isn't this considered work?"
"Of course it can be considered a job, but the profession of actor also has its own particularities. Don't you have a lot of scripts in your hands now? Even if you are not filming now, you still have to decide on one first, otherwise, the film studio will find someone else.
, you can’t take a picture even if you want to.”
"Set up the next movie first, and you can still rest while waiting for it to start shooting. Isn't this the best of both worlds?" Zhang Feng was very attentive. She originally thought that she no longer needed to remind her about this matter. As a person in the industry, she was also sane.
Yes, how could you not understand this truth?
But now it seems that Zhang Feng is still too optimistic.
This elder brother seems to have never considered this kind of problem.
"What you said makes sense, but I think that even though I am famous now, I should make more films in order to continue my popularity. But this is a general idea."
"As an actor, isn't the most important thing still to have good works?"
"I now have three works waiting to be released, and they are all movies. It can be said that this year, my sense of presence can be fully enhanced."
"From the beginning to the end of the year, the audience can see me in the cinema. I have met the requirements in terms of quantity. In my opinion, the quality of these works is also uneven."
"Not all of them can be considered masterpieces."
"You can just say that the quality of San Yan Er Pai is not very good. Why are you beating around the bush?"
Wu Di was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "You can say that, anyway, you also know the general meaning of the movie, so I won't hide it from you."
"After these movies are released one after another, I don't know what kind of evaluation the audience will have on me. To be honest, I don't know yet. I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble."
"Following that, if you want to maintain high popularity and a good image, an absolute masterpiece is a must."
"This is one of the reasons why I haven't decided on my next work for a long time. I'm not deliberately lazy. In fact, in my opinion, for many works, it really doesn't make much sense whether I can shoot them or not."
"How about I try to make a TV series?"
"I knew you were evil-minded."
Wu Di had just put out his little tentacles and wanted to test it out, but he was immediately beaten back by Zhang Feng. It was really pitiful.
"Why is this so mean?"
"Nowadays, there are a lot of good quality TV series, and the themes are more diverse. For a newcomer like me, what about giving it a try?"
"What's more, it's not like I just jumped into the TV drama industry and never came back to make movies. I have a bit of a foundation in the movie industry."
"It won't be like filming a TV series and then having it returned."
"No," Zhang Feng nodded. The little flame in Wu Di's heart had just started to burn a little. Unexpectedly, she immediately added: "But, I object to you making movies, not just because I think you make movies."
The style of the TV series has been lost, but there are several reasons.”
Not even a little bit?
Good guy!
You need to listen carefully to this.
Wu Di quickly straightened his back and sat down, which meant he was no longer a student, otherwise he would have done the same if he had put his hands behind his back.
"First, the shooting methods of movies and TV series are completely different. One is shot with an ordinary camera, and the other is shot with film."
"No matter how beautiful and detailed the TV series is, basically, the camera's effect on a person's modification is extremely limited."
"What you originally looked like is how you will look in the final film."
"But movies are different. Film directors pay attention to visual effects, and they all need to have a sense of lens. Especially when you meet a director with a strong sense of beauty, he may even have the ability to turn decay into magic."
"Originally, you only have 60-70% good looks, but after being photographed by these directors, you are definitely very good-looking."
“Handsome and beautiful, with a special atmosphere.”
"This is different in terms of personal image, and then there is the difference in acting skills. Some actors can develop in all aspects of film and television dramas, and neither side will fall behind."
"Of course this kind of person is very powerful and has extremely strong adaptability."
"But, I don't think you belong to that type of actor. The filming speed of TV series is too fast and the process is very rushed."
"I'm not trying to scare you. Even if you give me a script and ask me to make a TV series, I probably won't be able to film it well."
"Because I'm not that kind of person, and I can't have a careless attitude towards my movies."
"But you also know that the shooting cycle of a TV series and a movie is almost the same, and the TV series is so long, it is absolutely impossible to cover everything and strive for excellence in every shot."
"That's why I don't support you filming a TV series."
"Of course, there is a more important point. It's not like you don't have movies to make, so why would you want to make a TV series?"
"Even if you want a good script, with your status and connections, you are fully capable of receiving a good script, so why would you want to act in a TV series?"
"What a waste of time."
"waste time?"
"Where did this start?"
“Isn’t the filming time of a TV series and a movie about the same?”
In other words, Wu Di is still a newbie in movies. He doesn't know many things yet, so he pretends to be an expert here.
Although he is indeed better than ordinary actors, knows how to think, and has certain professional knowledge, but in real terms, he is still a bit far behind.
"Isn't it obvious?"
"Have you never been on a movie crew?"
“What do you think of the intensity of the shoot?”
Wu Di touched his neck and thought for a long time: "It's okay."
"I can keep up."
"After all, for a lazy person like you, you are tired of making movies, so you still want to make TV series?"
