Chapter 88 Shooting of 'Mr. Pei's Daily Life' begins!
"President Pei's Daily Life" Season 1 Episode 1 script:
I looked at my Lao Lux, not to check the time, but to let you know inadvertently that I am a wealthy person.
On this day, I had a sudden impulse to make a game that would make players extremely excited.
I casually sold a piece of Lao Lux and raised the initial R&D capital of 200,000 yuan.
An hour later, when the task was handed over to a new intern, the money had shrunk by three-quarters.
After looking at the resource quotations on the resource website, I felt a little relieved that the people below were quite honest.
At this time, there are only 50,000 R&D funds left for interns.
When he heard that 50,000 yuan would be spent to develop a game, his expression at that time went from confusion, to doubt, to surprise, to pleading, and finally, to resignation, which was particularly interesting.
I couldn't help but feel happy. It seemed that I, the one who dominated the shopping mall, was finally going to experience a failure.
I never expected that I would finally make a game that would make players extremely excited.
The intern made a boring game about driving for eight hours, which turned out to be very popular among players. In just two weeks, sales exceeded 200,000.
So, I was happy and gave him a month's paid leave so that he could continue to explore the inspiration of game design in the scenery of the famous mountains and rivers of the motherland.
Watching a future star designer rising, I feel fulfilled and happy that I have accomplished another trivial goal.
Alas, the daily life of a game design master is often so unpretentious and boring.
…
The script for the first episode was written in a hurry, and Zhu Xiaoce even had some unfinished ideas.
"Brother Huang, how are you?"
Huang Sibo read it over: "Not bad! There are jokes, reversals, and black humor. This book can do it!"
"And these are all based on Mr. Pei's real experiences!"
"The scenes are taken directly from the company, and the actors and sets are all ready-made. It only takes half an hour or an hour to shoot one episode at most. Taking into account the post-production time, one episode can be produced in two days, which is more than enough."
"But... the only problem is that the success of this game was actually planned by Mr. Pei. Isn't it inappropriate for us to make it feel unexpected?"
"Is it dwarfing Mr. Pei's image?"
Zhu Xiaoce shook his head and said: "Hey, art comes from life, but it is higher than life! Art is meant to be reprocessed. I believe that with Mr. Pei's magnanimity, he definitely doesn't care about this."
Huang Sibo thought for a while: "Yeah, that's right!"
The two of them became excited instantly.
Zhu Xiaoce continued to write the script for the next episode, and from time to time asked Huang Sibo for some details of Mr. Pei's daily work, as well as some interesting things in game development.
Huang Sibo began to purchase equipment, recruit post-production personnel, etc.
According to this pace, filming can officially start within two or three days!
…
February 9th.
There are still 3 days until the Spring Festival holiday.
During these three days, Pei Qian was still a little busy.
For the game "Game Maker", the final draft of the design needs to be written and finalized. When the holidays are over after the new year, formal research and development will begin.
As for the Internet cafe, we must also make preliminary preparations. Decoration will begin after the new year, and we strive to complete the decoration, layout, and official opening within a month.
As for the name of the Internet cafe, Pei Qian has already decided on it.
Moyu Internet Cafe!
In short, I hope all the staff of this Internet cafe will fish every day and lose money as soon as possible.
Like "Tengda", this expresses Pei Qian's good wishes.
Finally, there is the short video "Mr. Pei's Daily Life".
Director Zhu Xiaoce and Pei Qian agreed to shoot the first episode today and try to release it during the Chinese New Year.
As a show of sincerity, the three seasons' salary has been transferred to Pei Qian's personal bank card at once, totaling 30,000 yuan!
Pei Qian's personal property at his disposal instantly reached 50,000 yuan!
Mr. Pei, who has never been so rich, feels good!
As the saying goes, take people's money to eliminate disasters for them.
Mr. Pei is already ready to appear on the scene.
In the afternoon, Zhu Xiaoce, Huang Sibo, and two other errand boys arrived on time.
Of all the equipment on my body, the most expensive one is a SLR camera costing more than RMB 50,000. The other tripods, visors, etc. all add up to less than RMB 10,000.
Seeing Huang Sibo being so frugal, Pei Qian instinctively felt a little unhappy.
Nothing like Tenda employees!
However, since Zhu Xiaoce said that all one million would be spent, Pei Qian naturally had no reason to ask.
"Mr. Pei, this episode is very simple. It's just a matter of a few shots. You don't even need to read the script. You don't need to say the lines anyway. All you need to do is dub them in post."
Zhu Xiaoce was very thoughtful and was afraid that letting Mr. Pei recite the lines would waste Mr. Pei's precious working time, so he took care of the whole process.
"In the first shot, you are lying on the sofa in the living room, raising your hand to take a look at your own Lux."
"In the second shot, you take this game magazine, flip to the new game introduction poster, and click on it with your hand."
"In the third shot, you smile at the corner of your mouth and look into the distance, with a somewhat meaningful feeling..."
There are not many scenes of Pei Qian. In the one-minute video, although Pei Qian has the most scenes, it only lasts for more than 20 seconds at best.
Pei Qian casually struck a few poses, and the shooting was over in less than ten minutes.
"Okay Mr. Pei, the shooting is over! You can continue your work."
Zhu Xiaoce put away his equipment and prepared to take pictures of other people.
That’s it???
Pei Qian was confused.
What was this shot?
Is it possible to shoot a short video like this without even a specific storyline?
Sure enough, this video is definitely a loser!
Pei Qian returned to his office, feeling relieved.
He has a keen eye for knowing people, and Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce did not disappoint him!
Although losing one million yuan didn't help him much, mosquitoes are still meat no matter how small they are, so it's always a happy event.
Pei Qian looked at his own money and thought, these two are very frugal. Even props like watches have to use mine. They are really frugal.
Um?
etc……
Pei Qian suddenly discovered a blind spot.
Get Lux!
Why do I want to watch Lux in the first scene?
Is this a coincidence?
No, there are other blind spots!
For example...why are you lying on the sofa watching Lux!
Why should you show a meaningful smile...
Why do these shots seem so slightly familiar?
Pei Qian suddenly realized that the situation was not good!
Something is going to happen!
He quickly jumped up from his office chair and left his office.
At this time, Zhu Xiaoce and Huang Sibo had completed their shooting and were packing up tripods, light visors and other equipment, preparing to leave.
"Director Zhu! Stay!" Pei Qian quickly called Zhu Xiaoce to stop.
Zhu Xiaoce was stunned: "What's wrong, Mr. Pei, is there anything else?"
"Well, can you give me the script of this short video?" Pei Qian pretended not to care and asked casually.
Zhu Xiaoce nodded and handed over a script: "Of course, here it is."
Pei Qian reached out and took it.
"If there's nothing else, let's go first, Mr. Pei, to edit."
Everyone said goodbye to Pei Qian and left.
Pei Qian returned to the office with the script.
The script is not long and I finished it in just one glance.
After reading it, Pei Qian slumped in his chair.
"I...I've seen a fucking ghost!"
"Isn't this a combination of "Zhu Yiyi's Boring Life" and "Unexpectedly"!!!!"
