The sand is long and the air is fresh in the morning.

Lu Zhengyu hung up his identity sign, held his head and walked into the "Lingxiao Pavilion" with his head held high.

"Xiao Liu, it's early!"

"Director Lu, early!"

Lu Zhengyu happily greeted the girl at the front desk. The little sister said "Director Lu" and he smiled happily.

"By the way, Director Lu." When he signed his name and was about to leave, Xiao Liu called out: "Mr. Chen notified you that you will go to the small conference room 306 at 8:30 for a meeting."

"I get it, thank you."

Lu Zhengyu's office is on the 4th floor. Although he is just a newcomer now and has only filmed a few campus DVD works, Chen Lin attaches great importance to him. Not only did he give him a separate office, but his salary subsidies were much higher than those of ordinary newcomers. Not only that, the company also formulated a detailed study plan for him. Just arranging him to participate in Zhou Xingchi's film production in the future would be envious.

At 8 o'clock, conference room 306.

Everyone has arrived. In addition to Chen Lin and Lu Zhengyu, there is also a project management supervisor and two screenwriters.

An assistant came in and made a cup of tea for Chen Lin and gave the other three people a bottle of mineral water.

Chen Lin took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and announced the start of the meeting.

"The content of today's meeting discussed the preparations for the company's first online homemade comedy, "Hip Hop Quartet."

To put it simply, the so-called online self-made drama is short dramas that are usually played on videos. This kind of drama is usually not long, with an episode between 5-15 minutes.

"I decided to use newcomers for this drama, including director Xiaolu, who is also newcomers. Although this is a work dominated by newcomers, there is little investment, and the budget for one period is less than 80,000 yuan. But—" Chen Lin changed his tone and emphasized: "This does not mean that this company does not pay attention to it, otherwise I would not need to host this meeting today."

Everyone was excited when they heard this, especially the two screenwriters became excited after listening to it. They were not happy to ask them to take charge of a small work.

"This work is an important part of the company's online video strategic plan this year." Chen Lin briefly told the four people that the company will cooperate with Pentium Technology to focus on developing Youku video stations this year, and shoot online dramas to gather brand effects. He then added: "As long as "Hip Hop Quartet" is successful, the company will launch more online dramas in the future."

"Xiao Lu, you are in charge of this project. What do you think about the cast candidates?"

"Mr. Chen, "Hip Hop Quartet" reflects office life comedy, with only four main actors, manager, Xiao Qiao, Meng Zhaojun, and Xiaoqiang of the design department. If you use all newcomers, it is not eye-catching enough." Lu Zhengyu suggested: "I have an idea and I don't know if it's appropriate?"

"Do you have any ideas to say boldly?" Chen Lin encouraged: "Don't worry about saying what's wrong."

"Mr. Chen, can we invite some celebrities to act? They are newcomers with low prices and have a certain reputation."

"This idea is good." Chen Lin agreed: "Since it's a online drama, please help celebrities to complement each other."

"I thought of a candidate who could play Xiaoqiang." At this time, a screenwriter said excitedly: "What do you think of 'Luo Xiaopang'?"

"Lu Xiaopang?"

A spoof and interesting image of "little fat man" suddenly appeared in everyone's mind. Luo Xiaopang's real name is Qian Zhijun, and he is from Shang*hai. In 2003, a friend posted a photo of him on the web, which immediately triggered a trend of friends' spoofs. Many spoof photos of Xiaopang with various tricks appeared in major forums. Now Xiaopang has become the number one person who spoofs on the web.

"Okay, I think the role of Xiaoqiang is determined to be Luo Xiaopang." Chen Lin patted the board and continued: "I think the protagonist of the manager will be played by Xiaolu yourself."

"Hehe." Lu Zhengyu smiled and said, "I originally wanted to play this manager. I was afraid that you would not agree with Mr. Chen. Now I feel relieved."

"This manager is the best one, very vulgar, you are the ones."

"Boss, you really have a keen eye for heroes."

Lu Zhengyu didn't feel embarrassed at all, and his expression was very proud. After saying that, he shook his head. His **** look made everyone laugh.

Next, Lu Zhengyu showed his talent and thought that he wanted to find two women with contrast, one was very beautiful and the other was fat and cute. At the same time, he also made a bold suggestion, asking Chen Lin to play Mr. Wang, an advertising company.

Chen Lin agreed to make a guest appearance, and praised him very much, and promised that as long as the director thinks there is a need, all the stars of the group company can invite guest appearances.

The boss made such a guarantee, which made Lu Zhengyu excited. If he didn't make good use of it and invited several big stars in the company, especially the goddess, to make guest appearances, wouldn't it be a waste of the boss's good intentions?

So, in the following day, Lu Zhengyu and the two screenwriters began to write the script day and night, perfecting the script.

A month later, the crew of "Hip Hop Quartet" was officially established. Due to limited funding, the crew did not conduct any form of publicity and did not have any opening ceremony. It was just that Chen Lin himself paid for everyone to have a meal...

On March 2005, in the afternoon, the filming venue of "Hip Hop Quartet" - an office on the 6th floor of Jade Emperor Entertainment.

"All departments pay attention to the first set of the hip-hop quartet, "Chen Xiaoqiao's application" is now on." With the order, the crew officially began filming.

The first episode of "Hip Hop Quartet" tells the story of Xiao Qiao applying for a job. Xiao Qiao was stared at by the manager at the application site, and was finally signed by the manager on the spot. Xiao Qiao was arranged to work in the design department. After Xiao Qiao left, the manager jumped up excitedly, but at this time Xiao Qiao turned back.

The first episode was only 5 and a half minutes, but there were indeed many funny points. The first shot appeared with a photo hanging on the wall.

In the photo, the manager is holding one hand on the desk, and his eyes are staring at the front with great concentration. What’s interesting is that the next second, the manager will stare at Xiao Qiao with the same movements and the same eyes.

The manager's eyes were so ugly, his expression seemed to be thinking very seriously, and he seemed to be dazed. Just looking at the photos made people unexpectedly look at the beauty. With his very ugly aura from head to toe, he was surprisingly full of jokes.

This is such a simple scene because I laughed 5 times.

"Hahaha~~" Chen Lin laughed loudly, "The manager is so **, sorry, I'm laughing."

Even the boss laughed, and the others laughed even more. The conversation between the manager and Xiao Qiao was even more joyful.

Manager: Oh, Miss Chen Xiaoqiao, that, I hope this won’t make you feel too embarrassed. Because, I found that the best way to select employees is to stare at them for a long time and look at them.

(After saying that, the manager suddenly stared at Xiao Qiao again, and Xiao Qiao's expression was very awkward, and she didn't know where to look)

(After a long silence)

Manager (suddenly speaking to break the silence): That

Xiao Qiao: What?

Manager: I'll hire you!

Xiao Qiao: Oh, that’s great!

Manager: Nervous?

Xiao Qiao: Yes!

Manager: Don't be so nervous.

Xiao Qiao: Actually, it’s not that nervous.

Manager: Strange, you should be nervous.

Xiao Qiao: That was actually a little nervous.

Manager: Don't be nervous! Is it okay to have some confidence?!

Xiao Qiao: You decide one

5 and a half minutes per episode, but I kept laughing and filming for two hours. No one cared about the wasted time, but instead felt that the filming process was full of laughter and joy.

Chen Lin was also very happy to stay with this vibrant crew. Unfortunately, the first season of "Hip Hop Quartet" was filmed in a week, and we will have to wait until the second season when we meet next time.
Chapter completed!
