Xie Shutong's major in Chinese opera is opera, which is also a performance major. Her facial features are bright and majestic but not elegant. After the camera shoots her face, especially when shooting a movie, it is easy to look ordinary.
This is determined by the ratio of the shooting lens in the movie. Most of the beauties in movies have small faces. Representatives include Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Huangya, Yaya and others.
Therefore, in his junior year of college in 2016, Xie Shutong participated in the filming of one or two dramas and then switched to behind-the-scenes production.
With Jing Gao Zai, it was very easy for her to stop being an actress and switch to being a director or producer. As Phoenix Film and Television began to build various systems, especially after Jing Gao returned from inspecting Hollywood, she made strong demands
Phoenix Films moved its production closer to the Hollywood model, eventually evolving into a de facto "producer center" system, and Xie Shutong naturally became a producer.
Of course, there is also the influence of her classmate and former admirer Zeng Yi, as well as her senior sister and Chinese opera teacher Yu Shishu. The two of them directed a play where one of them threw herself on the street and was so miserable that she had to rely on various kinds of relief to survive.
.A film that has been made is still in post-production, and there may be some problems in passing the review. It has been two years.
Therefore, Xie Shutong no longer wants to be a director. She did not graduate with a directing major. She concentrates on being her producer.
"Brother Jing, you want to ask my opinion? Then you may be prepared to be criticized by me but not angry. I know very well that the main framework of Phoenix Film and Television's system was set by you. Right?"
At noon in autumn, the sunshine is lonely and soft. Time seems to be flowing in the exquisite dishes and fine wines, comfortable and leisurely.
Xie Shutong was tall and tall, sitting in a wicker chair, holding a glass of red wine, looking at Jing Gao boldly and straightforwardly and said.
Jing Gao smiled and said: "I still have this kind of courage. Shutong, just say it." Then he said to the pure and fair-skinned girl sitting next to Xie Shutong: "Xiao Yiren, as an actor of Phoenix Film and Television, what do you have?
If you want to complain, Shutong will make a supplement later."
Song Nianyi's height of 1.65 meters is actually not short in the film and television industry, but Jing Gao always thinks that this girl is delicate and delicate. Maybe it's because her face is relatively small, and she looks very pure and abstinent.
This is different from the innocence of the female secretary Yi Hongyun, the "goddaughter" of Tomson Group Chairman Xu Feng, whom he met last night. The girl is tall and has thick eyebrows. From his perspective of all the beauties,
Once this girl Yi Hongyun is developed and watered, her purity and youthfulness will fade away, and she will become beautiful and sexy.
"Okay, Brother Jing." Song Nianyi smiled.
Xie Shutong smiled and said: "Brother Jing, don't look at Xiao Yiren's harmless appearance. She will complain about you later until her face is livid."
Song Nianyi scolded Xie Shutong and said, "You are the only one who can speak." In fact, she knew that Xie Shutong was paving the way for her to save her from going too far later.
Jing Gao smiled and said, "Then let Xiao Yiren be merciful later."
"Giggle." Several beautiful girls covered their mouths and laughed.
It's just that the reasons for their laughter are different. Yang Chun and Zou Ruoya smiled in agreement, which was regarded as cheering for Jing Gao. Xie Shutong, on the other hand, had a weird and narrow look on his face, and a pair of red and phoenix eyes slid from Song Nianyi's fair face to Jing Gao's face.
up, and then back to Song Nianyi's pretty face. That really means...
Song Nianyi and Xie Shutong, who have been friends and besties at China National Theater for four years, certainly knew what she meant, and they immediately couldn't bear it, and their little faces turned red.
Cen Yulu, the school beauty with a delicate oval face and stunning appearance, understood what was going on and couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile. How do you say you should be merciful? Thinking of the innocent and charming Song Nianyi kneeling in the well next to her
In general, he felt comfortable in front of him. That scene... the senior sisters in the drama were so dirty.
Xie An couldn't help but laugh and joked: "Lao Jing, how immoral are you? You want to flirt with a little lady just for dinner?"
Jing Gao quickly raised his hand and said, "I'll go, I said something wrong. Your association is too rich. All your good words are polluted. Shu Tong, stop being weird and talk about business."
Xie Shutong smiled broadly and said, "Okay. Brother Jing, from my point of view, there are three points in the current production system of Phoenix Films that we feel are very unreasonable.
First, the current producers in the company are graded according to their performance, but even a producer like me who has supervised two dramas with good results still needs to find the start-up funds for each project by himself. If
It's okay to make a movie, but it's really difficult to raise funds for a TV series.
As for the crowdfunding of film and television copyrights you just mentioned, Brother Jing, even if you pay dividends to the money coming in from outside, who will invest in the TV series?
Only movies have the chance to become big hits and earn excessive profits. Moreover, unless you have acquaintances in the film and television industry, no matter how much money you make, you will be scammed. Even the coal bosses in the early years were scammed.
Do not do this."
When Jing Gao heard this, he was greatly touched. He really didn't expect this. TV series and movies have different methods of raising investment. He tapped his finger on the dining table and encouraged: "Shu Tong, keep talking!"
Anyone who is familiar with his living habits and details knows that when he taps his fingers, he is thinking carefully and carefully.
Xie Shutong took a sip of red wine and said: "Second, the entire company now promotes the producer + director + star system to ensure the quality of film and television dramas. Just now, Brother Jing, you said that we have become a producer center in actual operation.
System. Producers have the greatest power.
But in fact, this statement is inaccurate. We at Phoenix Film and Television use the producer + star model in some dramas, or even one-third of the dramas. Because if some films hire popular stars, we will not be able to control them at all.
! Not only the director can’t control it, but even the producer can’t control it.
This is the most annoying thing for our production department!
There are a lot of bullshit in every drama. Every time we meet, we complain, oh, that’s more exciting than a complaining conference!
Although we, Phoenix Films, are the number one company in terms of sales in China, in fact, many actors do not sell to us. When a small producer like me encounters a celebrity acting like a big name, the most common thing is to coax them. We producers have
Celebrities have been invited to perform performance appraisals, and it will be impossible to control the budget if we replace people.
Brother Jing, you just said that you should train new talents and reduce the salaries of top stars. I think this is very difficult, because the audience just needs to see stars.
In our current production model, dramas with stars will sell better than dramas without stars."
Jing Gao had just talked with Wang Hailin about the changes in the production system two days ago, and he was very clear about the background of what Xie Shutong said.
When the film industry is prosperous enough, producers mainly control the production costs of film and television dramas and increase output. In this way, the bosses of film and television dramas can make money.
Although the salaries of actors in the industry are very high at present, and TV dramas need to be broadcast to buy ratings and spend a lot of money on distribution. However, Phoenix Film and Television has theaters, distribution companies, and even artists' management contracts, which is enough to
earned money.
However, this oldest production model in the film industry cannot guarantee the quality of the film. Not all producers are knowledgeable, they are just relatively good at cost control. Therefore, adding stars to a drama will
It is a guarantee of quality. Especially in recent years, traffic stars have been promoted due to the rise of capital, which requires the blessing of stars.
Jing Gao thought deeply and said, "Shu Tong, continue."
