After comforting Zhang Feng, after a while, Cifang also called after him. Zhang Feng happened to be eating salad nearby. Wu Di quickly confessed honestly: "This is Cifang's call. I guess it's for explanation. I'll answer it."
"
Seeing his remarkable educational achievements, Zhang Feng nodded with satisfaction.
"Take it."
Of course, even without her permission, there is no reason not to answer such calls.
"Have you seen the news?" After a few polite words, Cifang went straight to the topic, which made Wu Di very happy and saved him from having to divert the topic.
"I saw it. Not only did I see it, Xiaofeng also saw it."
"Director Zhang also saw it?" On the other end of the phone, Cifang immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.
He spoke with a vibrato: "What did Director Zhang say?"
Women's minds are fickle. With Zhang Feng here, Wu Di's opinion becomes less important.
Xiao Wu was sad.
"She, she is by my side now, do you want to say a few words to her?"
Wu Di opened his mouth, and Zhang Feng threw a tomato into it.
"no no!"
"It's better not to do it, that would be too embarrassing." Cifang firmly objected, and of course Wu Di had no choice but to go along with her.
"Don't worry too much. I've made everything clear to Xiaofeng, and she also said she won't take it seriously."
"Yes, you should explain. As soon as the news came out today, I immediately reviewed it. I went too far that day. I shouldn't have teased you. If I didn't, I probably wouldn't have let the paparazzi succeed."
"Do you know who took the photo?" Wu Di looked stern, and suddenly caught a clue, and Cifang was immediately stunned.
Did she say it?
When did she express such intention?
Could it be that this is a guilty conscience? Unconsciously apologetic?
However, the fact is the fact, and at this point, it is inappropriate not to admit it anymore.
"Actually..."
"That day when I came out of the stew shop, I saw a reporter taking secret photos nearby. He was probably a familiar person. If I had brought an assistant with me, I would have asked him to remind him not to send this out, but at that time
There is no one else around me, so it’s not appropriate for me to go up and argue on my own, so..."
"He was probably secretly filming me, but ended up filming you. I'm really sorry."
Wu Di grinned: "So, you already knew that such a report would be released?"
This news was so shocking that Wu Di's voice changed.
Zhang Feng on the side chuckled: "Tsk tsk..."
"It's like a mantis stalking a cicada, with the oriole behind. It's over, let others fool you this time!"
What are these words?
The idiom is used indiscriminately, and the meaning is completely unclear.
Wu Di was pressing so hard, and Cifang was in a dilemma. He was hesitating and couldn't explain it for a long time. How could he explain it?
This is not something that is obvious at all. Now that I have seen the candid photos, and as friends who have just reconciled, I should give you a warning.
After all, the other party has a girlfriend.
This makes it even more obvious that the power was silent on purpose, and Wu Di's anger is understandable.
"Oh, don't worry about it anymore. I've already taken the initiative to call and apologize. Isn't that enough to prove my apology?"
Wu Di let out a long sigh: "Now that the matter has come to this, it's useless for me to be angry. Your behavior not only hurts me, but also hurts Xiaofeng. Just now we had a big quarrel because of this matter.
!”
"Hello!"
"What are you talking about?"
Zhang Feng snatched the phone over and quickly pressed the button.
"Isn't it embarrassing?"
"Who said I quarreled with you?"
Still not admitting it, Wu Di smiled and solved the problem anyway.
From then on, for a long period of time, he probably wouldn't be bothered by the women around him, and his bad peach blossoms were written off.
However, Wu Di, who thought he had escaped from the whirlpool of women, soon faced a new challenge. Unfortunately, he was still inextricably linked to women.
After the Spring Festival, after a period of rest, Wu Di finally started to pack his bags and prepare to head to the Southwest.
Although Da Fei and the others did not let him accompany them, they also reported to him on the progress in the mountain city every few days.
Now, all the preliminary preparations are in place, and the people who want to cooperate with Wu Di have also been found.
According to what Xiao Qi said before, he doesn't have much money in his pocket and can't afford big names, so Wu Di is already the most famous actor in his movie.
The others were some of Xiao Qi's classmates in school and some older actors recommended by Da Fei who had often performed small roles in Hengdian in the past.
The so-called prospect role-playing.
Da Fei is an honest man. Although he has been promoted to the manager of a popular star, he has not forgotten his old brother.
When he was working in Hengdian, he attracted several special extras he knew well. Don't underestimate these big brothers.
Although they are not famous and have not starred in any blockbusters, they are already considered to be at the top of the food chain in the Hengdian territory.
These people have been working in Hengdian for many years. They have certain acting skills and connections, and can take on some small roles in movies and TV series.
They no longer need to join QQ groups and wait to sign up for movies like those newcomers. Basically, as long as they are willing, they can have endless movies throughout the year.
For them, unlike those big stars, they are not caught by fans or opponents whether they are teasing or not.
They don't have any worries about drama.
Generally speaking, although they can play more dramatic roles in film and television dramas, they still belong to the group acting level and their roles are still relatively small.
Therefore, after finishing this film, you can immediately move on to the next one, and there is often no need to adjust the state in the middle. It is very familiar.
For an actor at their level, a movie costs about tens of thousands of yuan.
From this, it can be seen that in Hengdian, a place where extras gather together, these special extras are definitely high-income earners.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! To be honest, even in 2010, as a senior white-collar worker in a company, your annual income level would not necessarily reach this level.
What's more important is that when ordinary people reach the senior white-collar level, they are destined to work a hundred times harder, which is almost associated with overtime work day and night, and there is also the risk of unemployment when they reach a certain age.
Therefore, the advantages of the profession of special guest actor are highlighted, because the remuneration for filming a movie is relatively high.
As long as they shoot a few movies a year, they can earn a relatively considerable income. Not to mention more, they can earn hundreds of thousands a year.
In 2010, those who made more than 100,000 yuan a year could be considered a wealthy class in the city. And they only needed to film a few movies.
Because they are group actors, they don't have many roles, and they don't need to stay with the group for a long time like ordinary group actors, so they can move wherever they need to.
Therefore, on average, a film only takes about a month to shoot. If you accumulate several films, you will need to work for about half a year. The rest of the time can be freely controlled by yourself.
It can be said that as long as one reaches this level in Hengdian, life will be enjoyable even if one cannot become a big star.
I think back when Wu Di was still working in Hengdian, his highest ideal was to be a special extra.
Not to mention hundreds of thousands a year, just tens of thousands is enough. The requirements are not high.
And now, soon, when he arrives in the mountain city, Wu Di will soon be able to see many of his old friends.
Of course, now the offense and defense have completely changed.
Wu Di, who had not been able to play a serious role in Hengdian for several years, has now transformed into a popular star.
Is this destiny?
No matter what, the film's frame is set up, and those behind the scenes don't need to worry.
Just like what Xiao Qi said before, just find a few small teams who have been waiting for the crew to recruit in Hengdian.
His movie doesn't have high requirements for aesthetics or scenery, as long as it's passable. Of course, the most important thing is the price.
It can’t be too high, it must be cheap.
The funds are limited, and this is all due to conditions. Fortunately, Xiao Qi is still a very calculating person. Although he has a small amount of money, he is also confident enough to fully mobilize the limited resources with his ability.
to achieve good results.
As an actor, Wu Di has nothing to do with this. Logically speaking, at this time when all the cast and crew have not yet arrived, Wu Di, the biggest star, has no need to go so early, or even wait for more than ten days.
no problem.
Although he had plenty of time, Wu Di still boarded the plane.
There is no way, who made him still have two jobs now? He is still the assistant director of the drama "Maze"!
To be more precise, co-director.
Generally speaking, the assistant director is only the deputy director of the director. He basically does not participate in the creation of the film and is only responsible for shooting. This kind of shooting is completely in accordance with the director's intention and cannot be changed without authorization.
Of course, the assistant director is also qualified to sign the credits at the beginning and end of the film, and generally has a higher status in the crew.
Although the assistant director cannot lead the filming of the movie, he can only work for the director. Moreover, generally speaking, in the film and television industry, directors and assistant directors often have an inherent mentoring relationship.
The director will promote the students he likes to be assistant directors, teaching craftsmanship and gaining experience at the same time, getting the best of both worlds.
Therefore, the assistant director also has a certain say in the crew. For a long time, the assistant director also worked part-time in casting. The director, of course, has the most say in his own work. The main roles are basically his.
Come and decide.
In addition to these starring roles, the assistant director can decide other roles. Therefore, many actors want to audition for a certain role, and taking the assistant director's path is also a good way.
They are often successful. In fact, because of this convenience, many legends have been spread. The specific content is not convenient to disclose.
In fact, at the beginning, Wu Di's idea was that he could just be an assistant director. When Xiao Qi was busy, he would help him keep an eye on the camera, explain the scenes to the actors, and basically play a role.
After all, the system there only said that he could direct and act on his own, but it didn't clarify whether he could only be the sole director, or whether he only needed to have the title of director.
The fact is that when I checked with the system later, the system really had no requirements in this regard, as long as it could bear the name of a director.
It's a pity that Xiao Qi has already agreed, and Wu Di certainly has no need to go back on his words. In this case, wouldn't he give away the good opportunity out of thin air?
So, as a co-director this time, let him put himself in the director's position and re-examine how the director controls and participates in a movie.
Of course, Wu Di was not unprepared. There was one, oh, no, two ready-made teachers beside him.
One is Xiao Zhang. If Xiao Zhang is not enough, there is also Old Zhang.
Before setting off, Wu Di also seriously discussed many issues with Zhang Feng, and now he is waiting to actually try it out.
Wu Di went to the mountain city. Lao Zhang was preparing for a new movie, and Zhang Feng was not idle either. Recently, Zhang Feng collected an old film reel that was lost overseas. It was naturally a black and white film, but it had never been found in China before.
Same version.
Therefore, Zhang Feng wanted to donate the film to the archives of his alma mater for free. The alma mater has very advanced copy restoration technology, which is also among the top levels in the country.
Although as a woman from a family of film directors, Zhang Feng is capable enough to find a suitable institution to restore the copies and then keep them for herself.
However, he thought twice and decided to donate it.
Not only for the complete restoration of the film, but also for the purpose of making this old film available to a wider audience.
In Zhang Feng's hands, how many people can enjoy precious film resources? The scope is too small, and the impact is not enough.
It is better to put it in the library of my alma mater. On the one hand, it can be used as a collection of film materials. On the other hand, it can be widely screened for previous students and film lovers.
At my alma mater, there are many charity screenings of old movies every year, and the response to each event is very enthusiastic.
By sending this film to the hands of my alma mater, I can ensure that more people will see it, which is finally a good thing.
Although Zhang Feng spent a lot of money to get this film, she was still very excited to think that such a precious influence resource could be kept in her own hands.
This movie is a classic black and white old movie called "Phoenix". It has a very luxurious cast, and it is also a comedy with a very coherent storyline and very innovative ideas.
Now when you re-examine this movie, you will find that it feels like watching a modern chick flick. The plot structure of creating various conflicts and misunderstandings between men and women, using coincidences to connect them, and everyone is happy in the end is no different from modern movies.
.
It would be more appropriate for such treasures to be placed in the library of my alma mater.
The library of his alma mater also gave this outstanding graduate a lot of face. Originally, Zhang Feng said that he could just take the time to send the film to the school, and it would not be that troublesome. However, his alma mater did not agree. Since the film was purchased
, it can be regarded as Zhang Feng’s investment in the acquisition.
Now that it is a free donation, it is quite formal for the curator of the library to hold a small donation ceremony.
