Over there, Dai Chengbi also handed Wei Jingcheng a drink. Both of them are directors, and it is impossible not to know each other in the industry. Although they are not familiar with each other, because of Cheng Zhiqing's relationship, the relationship is not bad. However, in Dai Chengbi's words:
"That's it!"
Wei Jingcheng is a few years older than Dai Chengbi, but he has a more upright approach than him and is also much more legendary than him.
Although he is still far from being comparable to Zhuang He and others, among his peers, no one can compare with him.
From the time he founded Wei Jingcheng Studio at the age of twenty-five to now, for the next fifteen years, the small screen has been his world - Wei Jingcheng.
All excellent products.
Even Chi Chong and Chen Chuan, several well-known directors who are much older than him, follow his lead, so you can imagine this person's ability.
Because of Wei Jingcheng,
Lao Dai was often reprimanded by Cheng Zhiqing in private. It was strange that he could like someone else's top student.
In private, Dai Chengbi doesn't have the panache of a director, he is just like an ordinary literary young man. When he sees a drama director like Wei Jingcheng, he might be quarreling with each other, but he still says very kindly, "Easy to say, easy to say!"
"
Xia Yu turned around and heard Lao Dai secretly poking at her, "How could a little unsophisticated director like me dare to work with Director Wei?" Xia Yu couldn't help lowering his head and suppressing a smile, knowing that in all likelihood
Cheng Zhiqing chewed in his ear frequently.
In fact, Wei Jingcheng just came across a good opportunity, and the pressure in the TV drama industry is not as great as that in the film industry.
To put it bluntly, this era is no longer the era of actors, it is the era of traffic. As long as the right people are hired and the traffic of 'stars' is relied on, no matter how bad the TV series is, as long as it does not involve key issues, it can survive
If it is reviewed, then it will have the opportunity to make money—advertiser sponsorship, copyright income, and related peripheral income. If the photo is good, it will be easier to get ahead.
This is not the case in the film industry, especially literary and artistic films and feature films. It all depends on the audience. If no audience is willing to enter the theater, the box office and reputation will not be high, then it will be difficult to sell the copyright in the later period.
Don't even look at Dai Chengbi being hated by Cheng Zhiqing. Wei Jingcheng's last drama film shot at the same time as "Stunning Beauty Per Capita" was also shot. It invested 50 million, and the box office was 60 million, and it lost 3,000.
More than ten thousand——
It was released during the Spring Festival, and Xia Yu and his whole family went to see it in Huliang. The film was good, but the subject matter is not the kind of subject that can make quick money! The awards and investors are all from the mainland.
, therefore, we can only participate in the competition for film awards in the Mainland - and it is not easy for the Mainland to compete for the Golden Rooster Award, which is one of the two most valuable in China.
Although Dai Chengbi’s side doesn’t sound good, “Small Flowers” at least won several foreign awards——
Although he lost a lot of money in terms of money, in total, it was not as much as Wei Jingcheng lost.
Of course, the main reason is that the investment is not that big.
However, he turned around and became frustrated again. Within a few days, although the box office did not have the same momentum as the first few days, it began to show a decline. After all, the subject matter is indeed not as popular as commercial movies.
Just like yesterday, the 24-hour box office was only less than 9 million.
But after nine days, it still collected 1.7 billion.
Even if the box office fails to keep up later, this movie has already made a lot of money.
If he hadn't known that Wei Jingcheng had gained a lot of money over the years, he would have been unable to help showing off.
At this time, the filming inside was still going on, and Dai Chengbi was sitting next to Wei Jingcheng, in his words - learning from Director Wei!
The filming of "Beiping, Peking" has now been completed and there are not many scenes left.
Martial arts scenes, war scenes and other big scenes have been filmed long ago, and what is being filmed now are all literary dramas.
Xia Yu and others sat aside, took a few sips of hot coffee, confirmed that they had arrived, and hurried back inside. Although the chief director of this drama was Wei Jingcheng, he and Chen were actually the ones doing the filming.
Sichuan and Sichuan, the two had some communication before at the celebration banquet. Wei Jingcheng has already intended to let go of the TV series, retreat as a producer, and shift his focus to the big screen——
Wen Sui and Xia Yu secretly chewed their ears, "Look at Lao Dai's virtue. If he had a tail, he would have gone up to the sky long ago!"
Xia Yu also nodded in agreement, but there was one thing he didn't say - if Cheng Zhiqing hadn't been filming inside, he would have beaten him severely.
Over there, Hu Chang and Qu Ziyi came over after putting on their makeup. They didn't even take a sip of coffee, so they said hello and followed Chi Chong in.
By the time a few people finished the show, it was already half past one in the afternoon.
Somewhat because of the arrival of Xia Yu and others, Wei Jingcheng announced that the entire crew would take a break, "Rest for half an hour. Director Dai Chengbi and Xia Yu brought everyone lunch. Everyone went to wash their hands and then get ready."
What a delicious meal!”
When Wei Jingcheng said "Click! Come on, get ready for lunch!", Xia Yu was already carrying hot meals from the kitchen cart, waiting for everyone to finish the show.
A disposable tablecloth is also laid out on the side——
After filming all morning, no one was hungry anymore. Then we met Lin Xinfu’s delicacies, which even the foodie Xia Yu praised. Even before we got close, just smelling the food made our mouths water.
.
Xia Yu booked ten tables for ten people per table, but in fact there were only sixty or seventy people on the entire set.
This is Group A. Group B has finished shooting a few days ago and went to other film and television cities to shoot.
Although the arrival of Dai Chengbi, Xia Yu and others was very low-key, Wei Jingcheng gave them enough face, "I'm very happy that Dai Chengbi, Director Dai and his old friend Xia Yu came to visit the class together, and brought everyone a big meal, etc."
We have finished filming, and Lao Wei reciprocates the favor by going back and inviting the entire staff of Wei Jingcheng Studio and the crew of "Beiping Peking" to come together to support Director Dai Cinema!"
"I want it, I want it!" Many people agreed with their mouths full of food, but they didn't expect that it was too full. As soon as these words came out, a slightly younger actor didn't hold back at all, and the food jumped out.
The whole table was filled with people making a big fuss——
Seeing this scene, everyone laughed. Fortunately, Xia Yu's side had already made arrangements. There were more than two tables, and a new table of food was set up. It was just the little actor who suffered a lot, so
Bian Chichong said to him with a sullen face, "It just so happens that you don't have a role in the afternoon, so this big table of food belongs to you. Let me tell you, kid, this table costs more than a thousand, if you dare to waste it,
, deduct it from your salary!"
The little actor's eyes lit up, but Chi Chong didn't expect such a result at all, and he laughed angrily.
"I'm taking advantage of you, kid!" It may seem resentful, but based on Xia Yu's understanding of Chi Chong, this young actor must be very favored by Lao Chi; perhaps to outsiders, it seems like he was given special care at the Northwest Film and Television Base.
of oneself.
When Meng Dong saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile at Xia Yu. Then after finishing the meal, when the little actor was still trying his best to wrap the round balls and accidentally choked, he gave him a bottle of mineral water and said, "Hey, wait a minute.
