Chapter 219 Movies, comics, and albums(1/2)

That night, Liu Ronghua called and said that he was still inquiring about the crew and asked Shaoyang to wait for two more days.

Shaoyang naturally agreed wholeheartedly.

June 6th.

The night before the college entrance examination.

Shaoyang made a video call to his home and didn't chat for long. He just asked Xiao Yue'er to perform as usual and don't be nervous about the exam.

Xiao Yue'er seemed quite relaxed, and asked Shaoyang when he could pick her up to the Magic City.

Hearing that Xiao Yue'er yearned so much for the outside world, Shaoyang promised her to go home and pick her up on the 10th.

Wait for Shaoyang to hang up the phone.

Xue Jiajia then stepped forward and asked curiously: "How are your sister's grades?"

"Much better than me. If you perform stably, you should have no problem coming to Shanghai Jiao Tong University."

"Modu Jiaotong University?"

"Um."

Xue Jiajia's eyes lit up and she said: "So powerful?" www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm

"Xiao Yue'er has been very good at reading since she was a child. Fortunately, we are much different in age. Otherwise, as an elder brother, I would be embarrassed, haha."

Xue Jiajia was about to speak.

The phone screen in Shaoyang's hand suddenly lit up again.

It was a message from WeChat.

Shaoyang clicked on it and found that it was from Liu Ronghua.

A text message is a person's contact information.

There is also a voice message below.

Shao Yang clicked it and listened: "Shao Yang, this Yan Fei is a director I have worked with before. He has no projects in hand recently. I have already said hello to him. You can contact him."

After listening to the voice, Shao Yang quickly replied with a word of thanks.

Then I copied the number and dialed it directly.

"Hello."

"Is it Director Yan? I'm Shao Yang."

Yan Fei, who was eating at home, heard this, wiped his mouth, walked to the sofa and sat down.

"I know, Brother Hua has already said hello to me. You want to make a movie, right?"

"right."

"I have a complete team in hand that can help you make a movie, but the reward..."

The domestic film industry has been sluggish in recent years, and the current best-performing film "Flood" only had a box office of 2.6 billion.

There is a big difference from the world that Shaoyang lived in before. In that world, the top ten movies at the box office all exceeded 3 billion, and the top four movies even exceeded 5 billion.

This is also the fundamental reason why Shaoyang wanted to enter the film industry so early.

In Shaoyang's eyes, movies are like a piece of cake that has not been divided up much, just waiting for him to eat this piece of cake.

Yan Fei is not very famous in the director circle. Even because of his paranoid personality, many well-known actors are reluctant to cooperate with him. He has not started working for more than half a year, so he agreed to help.

But in his heart he was quite disdainful of the fact that Shaoyang wanted to make a movie.

After all, music is music and movies are movies. They are two completely different industries.

He felt that Shaoyang wanted to make movies now because he was making money and had nowhere to spend it, so he wanted to make movies for fun.

This is the same as those nouveau riche who suddenly have money and want to go to nightclubs to find happiness.

"Director Yan, please give me a price."

Yan Fei asked: "What type of movie are you going to make?"

Different movie themes have different shooting difficulties, which are naturally linked to the remuneration of the crew.

At present, the largest investment is in disaster films, which usually cost hundreds of millions, followed by war films and police and gangster films. Such films require a lot of extras and are very difficult to shoot.

The ones that are the least difficult to shoot and don’t require a lot of investment are probably urban-themed movies.

"Comedy in an urban setting."

Yan Fei originally thought that Shaoyang would make that kind of idol-themed movie, but when he heard that Shaoyang was going to make a comedy, he was really surprised.

Comedy is easy to shoot, but difficult to act.

Many actors who were originally comedies actually no longer want to do comedies in the later stages.

Like Xingye, he made so many comedies in the early stage, but later became a director, and finally gradually retired.

There is also Shen Teng, who also starred in many comedies at the beginning, and made some supporting roles in the middle period. Most of his focus was on variety shows.

"Five million for my personal remuneration, and five million for the crew." Yan Fei thought for a while and gave a price slightly higher than the market price.

While Shao Yang was on the phone with Yan Fei, he also searched for Yan Fei's information on his tablet. All his works and resume are available on Du Niang Encyclopedia.

A top student who graduated from the film and television directing department of the Zhongyang Drama Academy, he has seven or eight works, but only two are relatively well-known, one is a romantic drama called "That Year", and the other was nominated for the best literary film. "Rose".

Shao Yang flipped through it casually and agreed directly: "Okay, no problem. When will we meet to talk about the script?"

"I'm going to Shanghai next Monday."

"Okay, we will contact you then."

"Can."

Shao Yang hung up the phone and started playing Yan Fei's works on the video app.

After Yan Fei put down his phone, he shook his head and said with a smile: "It seems that I really made money, and I actually agreed directly."

Judging from Yan Fei's experience, an urban-themed movie can be shot in three months at the earliest, and five months at the earliest would be enough. The remuneration of five million is already considered very high, but he didn't I thought that Shaoyang agreed so readily.

Next Monday.

That is the 12th.

With almost a week left, Shao Yang temporarily put the movie behind him and started writing the plot of "Under One Person" and the songs for the new album.

Fuyao Culture heard from Tao Yiming that they have hired more than ten people. After all, the current stage is mainly about comics, so there is no need for many people.

On the evening of the 7th and 8th.

Tao Yiming came to Shaoyang to discuss the image design of several protagonists in Under One Person. Tao Yiming had drawn many different line drawings, but except for the image of Zhang Chulan, which was approved by Shaoyang, all others were overturned. .

Although Shaoyang couldn't draw, he still drew the images of the main characters such as Feng Baobao, Xia He, Lao Tianshi, Wang Ye, Zhuge Qing, Zhang Lingyu and so on based on the images in his memory.

Although the painting was ugly, Tao Yiming seemed to have grasped some key features. After some modifications, all the characters came to life.

In contrast, Tao Yiming shook his head and said with a smile: "Shao Yang, you are really a genius. My paintings are still too traditional. If you change them like this, the characteristics of each character will be highlighted."

"The comics are only the first step. Once "Under One Man" is almost finished, we can consider changing it into an anime. Maybe I will change the comic into a live-action TV series later."

Tao Yiming initially thought that Shao Yang was acting on a whim, but now, he no longer thinks so.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye.

On the afternoon of the 9th, on the way home after taking the exam, Xiao Yue'er impatiently asked Shao Wensong for his mobile phone and called Shao Yang. At this time, Shao Yang was writing a song. When he saw the caller ID, he guessed that it was Xiao Yue'er. It was a call from Yue'er and I quickly answered the call.

"Brother, I have finished the exam."

"How does it feel?"

"It's not bad. This year's college entrance examination papers are not very difficult."

Shao Yang smiled and said: "Okay, then you have a good rest, brother will go back tomorrow."

"Okay~"

Shao Yang hung up the phone and continued arranging music. The afternoon passed in a hurry. At around six o'clock in the evening, Shao Yang saved the audio file to the computer, renamed "Nocturne" and went upstairs.

He has already thought of a new album title, and it is called "Qing Meng".

Taken from: After being drunk, I don’t know that the sky is on the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams that overwhelm the stars.

‘Qingmeng’ overpowers ‘Galaxy’.



After the endless coma, Shi Yu suddenly stood up from the bed.

He took a deep breath of fresh air, his chest trembling.

Confused, confused, and all kinds of emotions came to my mind.

Where is this?

Afterwards, Shi Yu subconsciously looked around and became even more confused.

A single dorm?
