When filming, he thought that he would have to sleep hard when the time came to rest. If he didn't do anything, he would have to rely on willpower to force himself to get up, and he would be exhausted.
I was so free that I didn't even receive two calls a day. The only thing I had to worry about was what to have for lunch and what to have for dinner.
He doesn't stay at home completely. Later in the evening, he will change into sports clothes, put on running shoes, and jog outside for half an hour.
But it was still boring after all.
Everyone around him seemed to be busy, either filming or doing other things. Qin Xiaobao became the most relaxed and leisurely person.
It seems that everything has to be done within a certain limit, too much is never enough.
Most people work for five days and enjoy it very much on the weekends. Most of them only have two days of rest a month, so they cherish it very much.
But the director's profession is so special. I can't even sleep well after being busy for half a year or even a year.
When you have free time, you can stay away from work for several years.
Qin Xiaobao felt that he couldn't do it. It had only been half a month and he was already so idle that he couldn't imagine staying at home for such a long time without doing anything.
Of course, if you have a family or children, let’s talk about it separately.
He was so busy that he must find something to do. When an extremely boring morning was about to pass, he called Xiaoming and drove back to Su City with him to see Yaya.
The farm has changed again. The local government has put in a lot of effort and is building a foundation.
The old building has been around for too long. Although it has been renovated, it is still too dilapidated.
It is extremely difficult to recruit people to the farm. Unless the infrastructure is improved, we will have to flee again.
There is no need for Qin Xiaobao to spend extra money. Relevant departments in Suzhou City have partially supported it, and part of the live broadcast revenue is enough.
For a four-story building, the land is free, so it doesn’t cost much.
Today, there are more than 600 cats and dogs on the farm. As the farm becomes more and more famous, some pet hospitals, dog food, and bathing shops across the country have started cooperation with the farm.
Qin Xiaobao stayed here for two days and saw five dogs adopted out. Of course, more dogs came in, twelve.
His identity as a rural boss has spread, and the response has been average.
What can I say, in the eyes of ordinary people, Qin Xiaobao, as a director, has received more than 2 billion in box office and earned who knows how much money.
Unless you donate all your wealth, whether it is one million or ten million, it is just a number to them. It has no sincerity and will only feel less.
Not to mention that Qin Xiaobao just built an animal farm.
You can't satisfy everyone, just have a clear conscience.
Qin Xiaobao didn't pay attention to those remarks. A very important point in the entertainment industry is to adjust your mentality. Otherwise, the mentality of the black fans will explode after posting a few words, and it will be difficult to gain a foothold.
There are many people and dogs in the farm, and it is very lively.
Wake up and have breakfast, take a few dogs out for a walk, grab a sun umbrella in the afternoon, soak your soles in the stream to fish, barbecue together in the evening, play cards, relax, this is considered a vacation.
I originally wanted to stay for two more days, but something happened again.
Jia Ling called and invited him to get together.
The two did not know each other before. Chen He acted as a go-between and told Qin Xiaobao in advance. Coupled with Jia Ling's carefree personality, he agreed to her request and flew to Beijing to go to Dawan Entertainment Company.
"Hey welcome, welcome Director Qin to our company to guide our work."
As expected, they are comedians. Jia Ling and Zhang Xiaofei pulled a banner and stood in front of the company.
"It's so grand, there must be some fraud." Qin Xiaobao finished his sentence and turned to leave.
Jia Ling laughed and rushed over to pull him back: "How can there be fraud, right Xiaofei?"
"Ah...yes, yes, sister Ling is ready for dinner, let's eat roast duck."
Qin Xiaobao was just joking: "Roast duck? Authentic."
“Absolutely authentic, with a dedicated person standing by to film the movie.”
Half pushing and half pushing down, he entered the office.
Compared with Kiwi, the company is much smaller, with only about ten locations, and the reception room is only seven or eight square meters.
The three of them sat down and Qin Xiaobao looked around: "Why is no one at work?"
"You forgot about this weekend." Jia Ling half leaned on the armrest of the sofa and talked half of her body.
It was the first time we met, but Qin Xiaobao liked the other party's chatting tone and cute expression. Maybe this was affinity.
Zhang Xiaofei acted as an assistant, helping to serve tea and water, and was busy non-stop.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Qin Xiaobao asked after taking a sip of green tea.
"I'm not used to getting to the point so quickly." Jia Ling laughed.
"What if I stay in Beijing for three days?"
"It's not impossible." Jia Ling glanced at Zhang Xiaofei and motioned for her to sit down: "That's it, Director Qin, have you seen the "Happy Comedian" I participated in?"
Qin Xiaobao shook his head: "Sorry, I rarely watch variety shows."
"It's okay," Jia Ling was not angry: "I want to pay tribute."
"What?" The meaningless sentence left Qin Xiaobao confused.
"That's it..." After Jia Ling explained, he understood.
Jia Ling has been writing a script about her mother, which she once performed in "Happy Comedian" called "Hello, Li Huanying".
She is not willing to just keep it as a sketch, but wants to put her mother's story on the big screen.
The script alone took more than two years to prepare. Qin Xiaobao was invited to come over because, first of all, he wanted to learn from it.
Jia Ling is just an actress, she has never filmed before and is a complete novice.
Second, is the ending.
She had watched "Supernatural" at least five times and thought the ending scene was really wonderful. After racking her brains, she couldn't think of a better way, so she wanted to borrow it.
"Are you talking about the dumplings?"
"That's right!" Jia Ling nodded repeatedly: "It's just a scene like this that makes the protagonist wake up and know the truth of the matter."
"Can I see the script?" Qin Xiaobao asked.
"Of course!" Zhang Xiaofei immediately stood up and fetched the script.
"Starts on the fifth to last page."
Qin Xiaobao skipped the previous content and began to carefully
There is not much content in five pages, so I read it quickly.
"How is it?" Jia Ling looked expectant.
“It’s really the same thing but the same approach.”
In "Supernatural Family", the protagonist is seduced by the fillings of dumplings to recall his lost memory and recalls who his mother is. Jia Ling's script uses jeans pudding. When she was young, her mother could not sew those cartoon patterns at all.
.
Therefore, it brought tears to my eyes.
"Director Qin, you're too polite. It's not the same approach but the same result. I really borrowed your ideas and then extended the subsequent plot." Jia Ling is an honest person.
"Use it." Qin Xiaobao didn't hesitate too much: "As long as you like it."
"Thank you so much," the two of them said at the same time: "No wonder Brother He said that I can probably agree to this matter with just a phone call. Director Qin is really generous."
"It's not that serious. Didn't you treat me to roast duck? I also made a profit." Qin Xiaobao said with a smile: "When are you planning to shoot?"
"Start next year."
"The starring roles must be you and Miss Zhang?"
"Yes, I plan to ask Brother He and Brother Teng to help."
"It's a good comedy, come on." Qin Xiaobao turned to the first page of the script and listened and read at the same time.
"I'm a little worried now because I don't have much experience. Director Qin will be free when the time comes. Can you come over and give me some guidance?" Jia Ling extended the invitation.
"Well... I can't answer you now," Qin Xiaobao raised his head: "Otherwise, I will take your script away and take a look first. Have you got all the funds?"
"No," Jia Ling was a little embarrassed: "I'm a novice, and I heard that it's a sketch script and I don't have much confidence in putting it on the big screen."
"What's the budget?"
"About 60 million."
"It's not much, okay, let me wait until I finish reading the script. Maybe I can help you get some investment." Qin Xiaobao patted the script and said.
Jia Ling grinned: "That's great, thank you, Director Qin."
Qin Xiaobao raised his hand: "Don't thank me too early, wait until I finish reading everything."
