“The box lunch is standard, with four dishes and one soup! Everything is cooked on site by the chef of Dingfulou!”
"Everyone will be picked up and dropped off by car! And all the hotels and B&Bs I already have are fully booked! I guarantee that I will be delivered to the door of the hotel after work, and the work will be done in one step! It is said that two hotels were booked in advance by another crew, even if I
It’s quite annoying that they won’t let me pay double the price.”
"Props? Costumes? The props are all faded! And the plastic feel is too serious! The costumes are too! They are either sour and smelly, or they feel extremely cheap! Is this for people to wear? And Brother Hong, what we want is a high-quality drama
!Do you know what high-quality products are? That means only the most expensive! And the best! Strive for excellence! Leave no flaws!"
"Equipment? The previous equipment was really not good! I changed all of them to new equipment! Huaxing ultra-clear 8K camera that can shoot super movie-level images! Lights with high brightness and color gamut! LVMH products that are as good as cosmetics
!”
"In order to be able to render top-notch movie quality and special effects! I replaced all my computers with top-notch server-level products! Not to mention 3D rendering, even 70, 80, 90D renderings can be done in minutes!"
"Of course, I know you may think it's too wasteful. After all, this crew was actually lent to us by Director Sun Zheng, so the cameras and everything else are rented, which is absolutely cost-effective!"
In front of the dinner table, Lin Chuan was chatting.
The right time, right place and right people!
Taking advantage of Zhang Hong and Lin Muqing's absence, he had already done his best!
He didn't even wait for Zhang Hong and his sister to come back in the morning. He had an idea and urgently established a relationship to approve the route! Many of these supplies were flown directly by his own private jet!
Just one word, quick!
Spend money?
Those are all small things! His original purpose is reasonable extravagance and waste!
He heard that an anchor bought a computer worth RMB 100,000 just to play old games from fifteen years ago! He even bought two top-level graphics cards for Crossfire, but only one of them was working!
So in order to make a TV series and use all the hardware and software, is there any problem?
Of course that’s no problem!
I don’t have to use it, but I have to have it!
Otherwise, how could all the 13 million be spent? No one in the crew could eat up the actors who cost 80% of the cost!
To say that this little money is nothing to him.
For this crappy TV series, he, Lin Chuan, could buy a film and television city without blinking an eye, so why would he still care about this little money?
Don't think that this is a lot of money for a rich second generation of their level.
He knew that a colleague of his had engaged in investment operations on his own, and then lost billions in a few years. In the end, it was his parents who took action to settle the matter.
Lin Chuan is very confident in himself. He only thinks about spending money and does not think about making money at all.
As long as you don't think about making money, you will never lose money.
After all, the money he spends in a month is not as much as his family earns in a day, and he will never owe money.
This is self-knowledge.
After hearing his boast, Lin Muqing frowned.
She was keenly aware of the trick inside: "This is too wasteful. The crew next door invested hundreds of millions, and the crew's lunch box only had one meat and one vegetable at most. Zhang Hong didn't even add an egg. We have four dishes and one soup.
Fruit and milk after a meal, plus a five-star hotel chef coming to cook, is too much.”
Lin Chuan smiled and said nothing, pointing to the food in front of Zhang Hong: "Brother Hong, how does this Buddha Jump over the Wall taste?"
"It's very fresh." Zhang Hong swallowed the big abalone in one mouthful, then put down the spoon and gave a thumbs up, "It's delicious!"
"Isn't that enough!" Lin Chuan said with a smile, "People are like iron rice and steel. In our crew, my sister, a top student from Peking University, manages the crew's external cooperation matters, and Director Sun Zheng's professional top team is responsible for the filming. What's more,
We have a supremely talented director like you, Brother Hong, to take charge of the overall situation!
With top-notch software like yours, I, a humble investor who is not worth mentioning, am really not qualified, so I can only do something to improve the hardware level of the crew.
In this way, we have the top software in the country and equally excellent hardware, how could this drama not be a success?"
As a top professional student who graduated from the University of Southern California, I almost believed what he said.
It’s not like he hasn’t read Zhang Hong’s script! It’s amazing how successful he is!
Moreover, he also has double insurance to allow the crew to spend all their funds in advance!
How could you fail to complete your task?
But just now my little sister said that they stayed at the set next door all day? Brother Hong also went to get a lunch box?
This is worth checking out!
Zhang Hong nodded: "What you said seems to make sense."
Lin Muqing smiled and said nothing.
She has seen through her brother's tricks.
Although she didn't know why he did this, she already knew that her brother's purpose was to spend all the crew's money in advance so that the drama would end up having to compromise with reality, leading to an anticlimactic end.
But...
Stupid Onisang, you haven't read Zhang Hong's latest revised script.
If you follow that script...your actions are purely self-inflicted.
So Lin Muqing didn't mention this matter.
With enough water and food, let’s continue shooting!
Zhang Hong felt that he was already invincible.
Yes! I borrowed a top-notch crew from Sun Zheng, and now Lin Chuan has completed the top-notch hardware!
Although I am not a genius, I have absorbed a lot of essence from the great director Li Hua and the great director Liu Yishou from the previous studio!
Even if you only stole half of the essence, you might still be able to watch this TV series, right?
Anyway, it’s just something that’s rushed to the shelves, and Zhang Hong doesn’t care whether it can take off later.
As a result, the three of them started the follow-up work with full confidence.
After one hour--
"Card!"
Zhang Hong yelled to stop, and then imitated Liu Yishou's angry expression: "What the hell!"
In front of the camera, Luo Yun and Bai Xueye were so nervous that they didn't dare to show their anger.
Both of them felt that they did not meet the director's requirements.
I saw Zhang Hong walking over angrily... then bypassing them and coming to the director of photography: "How did you take this picture?"
The photographer was dumbfounded: "I'll just shoot it as normal in the storyboard, director."
"You must learn to be flexible!" Zhang Hong turned around and said to Luo Yun Bai Xueye, "Keep this position and continue to look at each other."
Then he pulled the director of photography around and stood at an angle of 45 degrees, then squatted down.
Zhang Hong pointed at them: "What did you see?"
The director of photography answered honestly: "Handsome guy in costume, beauty in costume, and starry sky."
The handsome guy in costume refers to Bai Xueye, and the beauty in costume refers to Luo Yun.
The starry sky is easy to say, here is a mountain, there is not much light pollution, so you can naturally see the beautiful starry sky.
"Yes." Zhang Hong continued, "Then what is the plot about now?"
"The two of them had a heart-to-heart talk. One of them said that every star is lonely, and the other said that stars are not lonely." The director of photography continued to answer honestly.
Then he was stunned and began to close his eyes and meditate.
After a moment, he opened his eyes with a solemn expression: "Director, I understand! What you mean is to capture the artistic conception of the scene through the lens! Actors are just tools in our hands! What really makes a film colorful is
, the content and the thoughts he wants to express are in line with the director’s ideas, so we can start photography and post-production!”
Director Zhang is indeed the super talented director that Director Sun calls him! This kind of idea for making TV series has never been seen by me, a veteran who has been in the industry for more than ten years!
Director Zhang has opened a door to a new world for us!
Maybe... he is even better than Director Sun!
Zhang Hong was also stunned for a moment, and then nodded very naturally: "Yes, that's what I meant."
Actually it's not.
He just thinks that director Liu Yishou is very good at thinking. He obviously just wants to cause trouble, but because of this handsome guy who has nowhere to go, he makes up all kinds of psychological activities.
He is just copying what Director Liu did.
Then I discovered that it seemed to actually work!
When he carefully looked for angles to answer the connotations of the characters played by Luo Yun, Bai Xueye and the others, he really discovered it!
But since photography has its own ideas, let’s follow his ideas.
After all, I am an amateur player, and they are the professionals.
............
late at night.
After the day's shooting, everyone was sent back to the hotel in the luxury bus rented by Lin Chuan.
But on the mountaintop where the wind was as cold as a knife, in addition to the howling cold wind, there were also a few more people.
One of them is Lin Chuan.
I saw him quietly sneaking up to a group of burly men wearing black suits and sunglasses in the middle of the night.
Then he released his stealth, lowered his voice and spoke the secret code: "Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!"
The bald man standing in front of him, who was 1.95 meters tall, grinned, showing his big white teeth, and gave him the secret code: "Meow! Meow! Meow!"
Lin Chuan let out a sigh of relief, he was the one who was right!
So he stood up straight and asked, "Where is my dad? Why is he here? And he called me to the top of the mountain in the middle of the night?"
"The boss is already in the room." The big men stepped aside, "He has been waiting for you for a long time."
