As the sun sets, the inside of the small villa is illuminated orange and bright by the setting sun.
Liu Xiaoli wore a white apron and walked out of the kitchen with a plate of dishes in her hand, turning her head to look in the direction of the living room.
The TV was turned on and the Mango Entertainment Channel was playing, broadcasting major entertainment events that were either true or false.
Liu Yifei was lying on the head of the sofa with her legs on Chu Xuan's lap.
Chu Xuan sat on the sofa, watching the news with Liu Yifei while pressing Liu Yifei's legs.
Liu Xiaoli put the dishes on the dining table. When she walked back and passed by the area where the living room was visible, she shook her head and said: "Xiaoxuan, just pamper her. If you spoil her, you will suffer the consequences in the future."
Hearing what his mother-in-law said, Chu Xuan tilted his head to the left to look at her, then tilted his head to the right to look at Liu Yifei, and smiled at her.
Liu Yifei was not happy. These words sounded like a mockery to her. She couldn't help laughing and said: "He massages my legs and I massage his back at night. It's not just him who pampers me, but I also pamper him, okay?"
Liu Xiaoli said "Oh": "Sorry, I don't understand it comprehensively."
Chu Xuan smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms: "It's not a problem, there must be a process of learning and progress. What I said may not be right, but I am more courageous than you and dare to say everything I think about.
Let’s consider them all in series. We will discuss many things more in the future. As long as you have the courage to imagine, then you will be the queen.”
Yuan Xiaomin chuckled and said, "Okay, those guys can do whatever they want."
The large iron gate of the factory is covered with rust, and there is some moss growing on the walls on both sides. Although it looks shabby, it has a sense of age.
"What if." Chu Xuan paused for a moment: "Develop a standard process for this interlocking entire industry chain to speed up the process, and clearly mark each link according to market conditions to set a price to avoid complicated prices.
Will the communication wrangling speed up the overall props production time?"
"Hello." Liu Yifei nodded slightly.
Li Dawei raised his eyebrows in surprise, not expecting President Chu to ask this question.
Liu Yifei nodded slowly, understanding the process: "So that's it."
A family of three is sitting on the sofa watching TV.
"Mr. Chu, Producer Liu."
Li Dawei asked curiously: "Mr. Chu, why are you asking these questions...?"
"They receive these files from their computers through QQ groups and emails, and then print them out to communicate the details with Master Yuan and his apprentices. They also maintain communication with the props team in the variety show park at all times to confirm whether the prop details meet the director's team's requirements.
Require."
In the morning of the next day, Li Dawei, the head of the show's props team, came to greet them personally. He heard that Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei wanted to go with them to the prop making workshop. Since Chu Xuan was the boss, he did not dare to neglect them.
"It's not necessary. Mr. Yuan, you are busy with your business. Let's go for a walk. Don't be too polite or make me embarrassed." Chu Xuan shook his head.
Liu Yifei paused, then patted Chu Xuan with a smile on her face.
Chu Xuan joked: "Tell the Golden Eagle Festival Organizing Committee to change the Golden Eagle Goddess to the Golden Eagle Queen. There is someone here who changed the title without authorization."
Although he didn't know Mr. Chu's purpose, he still said truthfully: "For example, copper comes from a copper material processing factory."
"Today is not in vain. You have gained such a big harvest. Why don't you tell third brother?" she said.
"The layout can be bigger." Chu Xuan said.
Chu Xuan's question made Liu Yifei feel funny: "I know this, the mining company's materials come from the mines."
Li Dawei turned and left.
"Cooperation is more important." Chu Xuan said.
Yuan Xiaomin was stunned for a moment and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, cooperation is more important. Look at my brain, I almost forgot important things."
She added: "Fortunately, I met you first, otherwise there would have been a lot of competition for popular products like you."
Chu Xuan's attitude of asking thorough questions really amused her.
Li Dawei said suddenly: "We all know Master Yuan's temper. He is an old artist."
Watching a group of people walking towards the office building deep in the factory, Li Dawei walked slowly with Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei: "Master Yuan is obsessed with handicrafts. His son Yuan Xiaomin is in charge of foreign business matters. He is a relatively shrewd person."
Li Dawei also laughed. This was the first time he had seen this way of asking questions. Although he didn't know what Mr. Chu was doing, he suddenly found it very interesting.
"Mr. Yuan, let's find a place to talk?" a staff member said.
Seeing the two of them laughing, Chu Xuan couldn't help but smile.
Chu Xuan shook his head: "This is how Hollywood's film and television industrialization works. Standard processes are set for the core links, while the upstream industrial chain of the core links is not taken seriously. This is in line with the interests of the capitalist country, and only one core link is set.
standards, such a win-win situation will maximize benefits.”
"With improved efficiency, the prop production factory will make a lot of money."
After one meal, it was already night.
Chu Xuan shook his head: "Brilliant Times is currently considered a giant in the entertainment industry, but it is nothing compared to giant companies in other industries. At least it is not qualified to negotiate cooperation with these giant companies at the moment."
Walking in the area outside the factory, which was empty and overgrown with weeds, Liu Yifei couldn't help but ask: "What are you thinking about? You just asked so many strange questions."
"You're busy." Chu Xuan nodded.
"Let's go, let's talk inside." Master Yuan was full of interest, waved his hand and turned around to leave.
Liu Yifei also looked at Chu Xuan curiously, wondering what the purpose of Chu Xuan's question was.
Li Dawei was stunned, obviously not believing that Mr. Chu was just asking casually, he must have other ideas, but if Mr. Chu didn't tell him, he couldn't ask again, so he could only suppress his curiosity.
Various QQ variety show work groups on the mobile phone kept prompting for news. Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei held their mobile phones and watched TV while watching the updates in the group.
Hearing this, Liu Yifei opened the [Props Group], looked at the news, and became interested: "Okay."
Liu Yifei was happy when she heard this. She stood on her tiptoes and kissed Chu Xuan's face. She stroked her hair and said, "Don't comfort me. I'm really not good at this. There's still a big gap between me and you, but I will try my best to reach a consensus with you."
,Believe me."
Li Dawei introduced: "This is Mr. Chu, the boss of Brilliant Times, and the boss of our show. This is Mr. Chu's girlfriend."
The master just put all his thoughts on the drawings, and he seems to be an obsessive old artist.
Li Dawei was even more surprised. Why was Mr. Chu's question so detailed?
"After it is confirmed that everything is correct and the props are produced, they will be transported by pickup truck or truck to the variety show park and delivered to the program team and director team before setting up the scene."
"Okay, I don't have enough experience to keep up with your pace." She sighed, feeling a little disappointed.
The noise in the factory was very noisy. Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei walked around for a while and then walked out.
"I see." Chu Xuan nodded.
"No trouble."
Chu Xuan looked at Liu Yifei: "Perhaps, this is one of the reasons why the third brother has been working hard for so many years, but the industrialization of film and television has not made any progress. As you said, it involves all walks of life, and the problems are too complicated. This is just a prop.
, Seeing the big from the small, the industrial complexity of clothing and makeup is no less than that of props.”
But Liu Yifei said coquettishly: "Mom! What's wrong with Chu Xuan pampering me? I'm your daughter. Are you still not happy that he pampers me?"
Chu Xuan nodded thoughtfully, looked at the copper and iron on a long table passing by, and said: "These copper and iron come from the hardware store, where does the copper and iron in the hardware store come from?"
Chu Xuan asked again: "Is there any higher level in the mining company?"
"That's right!" Liu Yifei said arrogantly: "I am the Golden Eagle Queen!"
Chu Xuan pondered for a moment and said: "So, in order to create a film and television industrialization standard that is in line with national conditions, perhaps we can only open up the supply channels of the entire industry chain, so that all links in the entire channel can enjoy the convenience and benefits brought by industrialization from beginning to end, and achieve balance.
, only then can we be stable, and only by being stable can we set the standard.”
Before approaching the kitchen, Liu Xiaoli looked at her daughter and said, "If it were before, I would be very happy. But now Xiaoxuan is also her mother's child, and her mother must also think about him."
For example, in terms of prop production, what is the specific work process? What are the details of the work? How do you make props that satisfy the director team according to the requirements? Where do the props come from?
They still don't quite understand it.
Yuan Xiaomin looked at Liu Yifei, but without extending his hand, he nodded and said: "Hello, Miss Liu."
"What do you mean?" Liu Yifei was confused.
Li Dawei gestured with his eyes to the remaining members of the accompanying team, who were the people responsible for negotiations and a lawyer from the program team.
Li Dawei nodded and saw a few people coming towards him and said: "Mr. Chu, that old man is the master I mentioned. His surname is Yuan. People in the industry call him Master Yuan. The man next to him is in his 30s and wears glasses.
The one is his son Yuan Xiaomin, and the other two are his apprentices."
As for his son Yuan Xiaomin, whether he did not shake hands with Liu Yifei in front of him but greeted her politely, or he said some pleasantries later, he was shrewd in everything.
Chu Xuan understood that props production required time, so saying hello in advance was something he could think of.
Liu Yifei made a "puff" sound and couldn't help laughing.
Outside the village, which is a modern house style of half brick and half concrete, there is a factory.
"Since the 1980s..." Chu Xuan said: "With decades of hands-on ability, the level of craftsmanship is very high."
"Okay." Yuan Xiaomin nodded, then looked at Chu Xuan and Li Dawei: "I'll find someone to take you around the factory."
"Teacher Li." Yuan Xiaomin then shook hands with Li Dawei and looked at Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei. He really didn't expect that Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei would come to such a small place, and he didn't know how to say hello.
"The props team accompanying today will stay in this village in the next few days. There are other props team members at the variety show park. After the script is finalized, they will make a list of props according to the script, draw props drawings, and describe the props.
demand, and then connect with them.”
The sound of welding, metal knocking, sawing and other harsh sounds are mixed together and can be heard from a distance.
"Did you bring the drawings?" Master Yuan asked, with some expectation in his eyes.
"As for the industrialization of other components, let the company develop for a few more years first, step by step. There is no point in telling the third brother now."
"We know each other, we see it on TV every day." Yuan Xiaomin smiled broadly and shook hands with Chu Xuan: "Mr. Chu, I have long admired your name."
"Eat." Liu Xiaoli walked out of the kitchen carrying the last plate of food.
A tingling sensation spread throughout her body, making Liu Yifei laugh happily. She immediately retracted her legs, sat up from the sofa and pounced on Chu Xuan, starting to play with him.
Liu Yifei blinked and said strangely: "Didn't Teacher Li just say that the production team's props team will make a list, draw drawings, and then pass them to the factory's props team to communicate and complete the production. Is there any problem?"
In terms of variety shows, the students will be divided into groups and will be matched with screenwriters and directors under the arrangement of the program team. This process does not require the participation of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei. They estimate that they will have nothing to do in the next few days, so they can have some leisure time these days.
Liu Yifei opened her mouth, and her heart stirred up. This had risen to the level of national conditions. She really didn't expect her boyfriend to analyze such a complicated matter so thoroughly.
"I came here several months in advance to say hello to Master Yuan and Yuan Xiaomin. They will rush to make the props for our show as soon as possible." Li Dawei said.
The phone rang. After Li Dawei answered the call and hung up, he said: "Mr. Chu, they're done talking. I'm going to sign the contract. Please excuse me."
Liu Yifei snorted. Lying on the sofa, she folded her arms and said angrily: "I have fallen out of favor."
"Bring it with me," said a member of the props team.
"Yes." Li Dawei said cheerfully.
"If, as industrialization becomes more and more successful, these upstream industrial chains that have not enjoyed the benefits may do something to break the original balance of industrialization and make the entire industrial chain no longer stable."
"Where does the copper from the copper processing plant come from?" Chu Xuan asked again.
Chu Xuan put his hands into his pockets and asked: "What do you think is the whole process of making props?"
Liu Yifei took a breath, calmed down her shock, and said slowly: "Even if we want to industrialize film and television, we only need to set a standard process for the prop production factories we cooperate with."
Chu Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and stretched out his hand to scratch the soles of her feet.
"Just ask." Chu Xuan shook his head.
"Then..." He looked at Li Dawei.
Chu Xuan summarized the knowledge points he just asked and said: "The whole process of making a prop should be that the prop team of the production team makes a list, draws the drawings, and then passes it to the prop team of the factory for communication.
Then go to the hardware store to buy the corresponding metal based on the drawings. The hardware store may go to the metal processing factory to buy raw materials according to the factory's needs, and the raw materials for the metal processing factory come from mining companies."
"Mr. Chu, despite the shabby appearance of this place, this factory has been serving the crew since the 1980s. It specializes in customizing various props for the crew. There is a master master and a group of apprentices. The craftsmanship is impressive.
Call it a masterpiece." Li Dawei said.
Seeing his father's impatience, Yuan Xiaomin smiled bitterly and said: "I'm sorry, my dad is like this. He gets excited whenever there is work and neglects everyone."
"The all-round career integration that we promised will not leave you behind."
"Teacher Li, I'm sorry."
"With the current scale of the company, industrializing screenwriters first is the least expensive and relatively simple thing to experiment with."
"Hello." Chu Xuan shook hands.
Liu Yifei looked shocked. Chu Xuan's thoughts shocked her: "You don't have a fever, right? This matter is as complicated as it sounds. It involves all walks of life, how can we set standards?"
"Teacher Li, welcome." Master Yuan has half white and half black hair. He looks like he is sixty years old. He can walk with the steps of a dragon and a tiger, and he is full of energy.
He had another question: "Teacher Li, where did these materials come from?"
Li Dawei looked at Chu Xuan, who declined politely: "No, you are busy, we will just stroll around."
Liu Yifei looked at him softly, lowered her head and leaned on his shoulder, saying, "You feel so secure."
They have been producers twice, and producers also have the right to coordinate the overall situation, but whether they are the producers of "Zhu Xian" or the producer of "Hope", they just expressed their ideas at that time, and others would
Help them get things done.
The six members of the props team looked at Li Dawei, who nodded, and the six members immediately followed Master Yuan towards the factory.
"There are so many links. Isn't the cost of communication one by one very high?" Chu Xuan asked.
Liu Yifei was also very curious. While walking, she turned her head and looked at Chu Xuan.
Picking up Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei at the gate of Donglinbieyuan Community, the commercial vehicle drove to the avenue and headed towards the workshop.
"So awesome." Liu Yifei was very interested.
"But our country is a socialist country, and what we pay attention to is peaceful development and stable development. This is the trend of our country's national conditions."
If you want to become a truly professional producer, or even a top producer, you must fully understand the detailed processes in these aspects.
"If we only set standards for the core links, that is, only for the prop production factory, it will be equivalent to greatly improving the efficiency of the prop production factory in terms of business capabilities."
"Furthermore, in the few years that the company will continue to develop, you should be the real boss lady of the Brilliant Era. After several years of study and progress, you will be no worse than anyone else."
Liu Yifei opened her mouth, and a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes. She really didn't expect that Chu Xuan would make the entire process of making a prop so complicated.
"This is the complete process. The workflow of the prop team of film and television dramas is generally the same. One person is in the director's team, and the other person is watching in the production factory. Both parties work together to make the production of props according to the needs as much as possible."
Seeing the confidence on her face, Chu Xuan said lovingly: "This is the Liu Yifei I know. She is courageous to explore, courageous to move forward, independent and strong."
The young couple stopped playing, got off the sofa and went to the dining table to eat.
"What exactly do you want to say?" Liu Yifei was confused and couldn't figure out what Chu Xuan wanted to express.
After hearing her mother's words and seeing her figure disappearing from the kitchen door, Liu Yifei looked away, but looked at Chu Xuan angrily.
This cute look amused Chu Xuan: "What's your expression?"
"How can that be done!" Yuan Xiaomin shook his head repeatedly: "Mr. Chu, you and Miss Liu are here. My place is full of glory, so I have to entertain you no matter what."
"No, that's a prize." Yuan Xiaomin smiled: "The environment here is not good, why don't you come to my house and sit there?"
The destination is located in a village or town surrounding Beijing, which is more suburban than a suburb.
"The gold and silver probably come from a cooperative gold store, the copper and iron come from scraps from a hardware store, the fur fabrics probably come from a cooperative clothing factory, and the wood comes from a building materials factory." He said truthfully.
"What is the specific process?" he asked, which was also a question that he and Liu Yifei wanted to know.
It just so happened that they had nothing to do these days, and they happened to see that the people from the program team were going to do something like this, so they stopped by to understand the situation and satisfy their thirst for knowledge.
He added: "There was a saying in Beijing at that time that as long as you give the master detailed drawings, the rocket will be built for you."
He replied: "It should be a mining company."
Chu Xuan also understood the general process of the props team's work. While thinking about it, he walked into the outside of the factory and watched. He saw that there were various materials on various tabletops in the factory, including gold, silver, copper, iron, fur and cloth. In a corner
Some wood was also piled up.
Suddenly, Chu Xuan was attracted by a message from the [Props Group]. He sat cross-legged on the sofa and said: "Tomorrow, the props working group will go to the master to customize the props. Shall we go and have a look?"
"However, this has nothing to do with the upstream hardware stores, metal processing plants and even mining companies. They have not received a balanced share of the benefits of industrialization."
Chu Xuan shook his head: "Then you are wrong. Without you, I would not be what I am now. It is you who made me what I am now."
Liu Yifei smiled, raised her head and pouted at Chu Xuan, who lowered his head and kissed her lips.
"Mr. Chu, Producer Liu, go back?" Li Dawei came over with his team.
"Let's go." Chu Xuan took Liu Yifei's hand, got into the car with them after leaving the factory area, and took another route home.
