Chapter 372 Temporary Advertisement Shooting (asking for monthly ticket)

Gu Cheng: [Let me tell you a very sad fact]

Jinli received this message from Gu Cheng only after she returned to the apartment.

Jinli: [? ? ? ]

Gu Cheng: [We all watched your video, even Brother Guang watched it, and they all fell silent at the same time]

Jinli: [??? My dancing isn’t that bad, right…]

Gu Cheng paused the words he was typing, quickly deleted them, and replied with a "shocked" emoticon.

Gu Cheng: [Are you too ignorant of your own strength? ]

Jinli: [You sound like my agent^_^]

Jinli: [She always used this phrase to describe me^_^]

Gu Cheng sensitively did not bring up the topic again and immediately replied:
[Brother Guang told us not to try to get ahead of you, and gave you a solo stage at the concert. With your strength, none of us can keep up with your flexibility, except Xiao Lin who can barely tie with you.]

Well, the truth is out.

Jinli breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought her ability was so poor that people were silent, but it turned out that she was so shocking that they felt she was out of her league.

Jinli: [That’s not the case. You guys are still very strong (dog head)]

Gu Cheng: [What song are you going to sing, Pink Girl's song or our song? ]

Jinli thought about it for a while, but didn't know how to choose, so she simply threw the question to Gu Cheng.

[Just decide based on your concert style. I'll sing whichever song you think is suitable~]

Gu Cheng: [Okay, I’ll decide]

Having solved her worries, Jinli felt refreshed and devoted herself to her studies again.

The next afternoon, she came to Domi headquarters to shoot the new autumn and winter lip mud.

Perhaps it was Sui Lingfang's advance warning that Jinli's biggest feeling when she went to Domi headquarters this time was the word "professional".

Jinli has shot several commercials for Domi, but this time gave her the most different feeling.

The shooting studio had already been set up when she arrived, using warm tones (maple leaf red, caramel brown) and a cold background (snow scene, dark gray fog), plus soft light filters or candlelight effects.

Yes, there are candlelight effects.

Jinli has shot many commercials, but this is the first time she has seen someone use candlelight to adjust the lighting and create an autumn and winter atmosphere.

These combinations are all intended to highlight the moisturizing feel of the lip mud and the matte makeup effect, allowing people to focus their attention on the lips when viewing.

Jinli finished her makeup and took a test photo first.

The lighting artist first gave her a side backlight to enhance the three-dimensional effect of her lips and show the characteristics of the lip mud, while also capturing the effect of the lip mud covering the lip lines through the lens.

Then Jinli began to do actions such as "open lips slightly" and "purse the corners of mouth lightly" to let everyone feel the ductility and fit of the lip mud.

The photographer looked at Jinli under the camera, and suddenly an inspiration came to him. He asked, "Jinli, can you use your fingertips to lightly touch the lip mud and smudge it?"

This action should be better shot when the lips are naked. First, apply a little lip mud, then smudge and wipe it with your fingertips, but now it is a test shot, so Jinli did it tentatively.

The photographer looked at her in the camera and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's how it is done. It will look good even if it's a still photo!"

Jinli also got herself into the right state quickly during the trial shoot, hoping to convey the atmosphere of the season through the lens through eye and lip movements.

But things like atmosphere often need to be enhanced by color numbers.

Obviously, after applying the cool reddish-brown lip mud and pairing it with a raised eyebrow and staring expression, people will feel more advanced.

Using milk tea color with a smile can highlight a sense of gentleness and relaxation.

The test shoot was just a random try of three shades. After the photographer confirmed that the lighting and makeup were correct, Jinli's lips were wiped clean again and the shoot officially began.

The first shot was based on the idea the photographer had just proposed, which was to lightly tap the lips with the fingertips to blend the color, in order to express the good extensibility of the lip mud.

After taking this action, Jinli immediately moved on to the next one. She was already in a state of concentration and did not pause throughout the whole process. As soon as the photographer shouted "next", she would immediately switch actions.

The relevant person in charge of Domi came over to check and found that the atmosphere seemed a little wrong.

It’s not that it feels bad, it’s that good!
"Why is it so quiet?" This thought popped up in the person in charge's mind as soon as he entered the room.

As he walked forward, the feeling of silence became even stronger, until he heard the photographer's voice.

"Okay, that's it, keep your expression... Yeah, great!"

"Lighting engineer, adjust the light, hit it from the side and back, and also add some overhead light on the other side. Yes, this is the position, maintain it... OK!"

The photographer and the lighting technician seemed to be infected by Jinli's state and soon entered a state of concentration. The other idle staff members did not slack off and watched Jinli shoot the advertisement seriously.

The person in charge quietly blended into the crowd and also looked at Jinli's filming.

Once I saw it, I was fascinated.

The person in charge is already fifty years old, which is not the right age to venture into the cosmetics market. However, Domi is a national brand, and the management of the company is relatively old, so they run the company with a retirement mentality.

He is not a fan of Jinli, but her serious and focused work attitude is enough to infect everyone.

When half an hour was up, Chen Qin ran to the photographer and said, "Sorry, Jinli's break time is up."

The photographer suddenly realized: "Oh, okay, let's take a ten-minute break!"

The quiet atmosphere on the field was broken by the sounds of people walking around and moving props.

Chen Qin and Jinli did not enter the lounge. There was not enough time to rest there, so they sat on the small stools in the studio.

Chen Qin looked around and saw that the staff were busy in the distance, a little far away from them, so she whispered to Jinli:

"I think the autumn and winter lip mud launched by Domi this time is quite beautiful. I don't know if it's because you took particularly good photos, but the color numbers launched are much more novel than before."

Jinli was so busy taking pictures that she didn't have time to look at the pictures. She just said based on the texture and touch she had touched: "It's no different from the lip mud I took pictures of before, but I think it's a bit too fragrant."

She was silent for a while, then said, "It feels like cheap perfume."

Chen Qin sighed and shrugged: "After all, it is an affordable brand, and the price of this one is not expensive."

Jinli: "I know, but sometimes even if you sell it cheaper, you can still do better."

The production process of lip mud is different from that of other products. Now it is all produced in an integrated manner, and the formulas are prepared in advance. What's so difficult about spending some time to adjust a better scent?
To be honest, what skin care products don’t contain fragrance nowadays?
But why do some products smell good, but others smell bad?

Perfume making is neither difficult nor easy.

Although they are all blended with essences, there is no need to use too strong a scent. It feels like applying essence when you apply it.

Jinli thinks that it is possible to have both cheap and easy-to-use products, but Chinese people pay more attention to the price factor, because if the product is cheap enough, they can tolerate all shortcomings, even if the shortcoming can be improved by the team in a week or even less.

Chen Qin agreed with Jinli's idea, "I also think Domi can do better." But even though Jinli is Domi's spokesperson, she is not familiar with Domi. It's not like she works in the management of Cat's Claw and can give opinions at will.

In the end, she said nothing, but just wanted Sister Fang to explain her requirements for the fragrance when she worked with Duomi next time.

While Jinli was resting, the person in charge also approached the photographer and asked, "How was the shoot?"

The photographer said without thinking: "Very good, Jinli is very professional."

He added: "The attitude is also very good."

The photographer suddenly thought of something and said, "Boss, why don't you shoot some commercials? Even if it's only ten seconds long, this action is very suitable for commercials. I'll record a clip."

The person in charge saw Jinli reaching out to apply lip mud and smudge it.

He was silent.

Even though I’m older, because I’m in the cosmetics industry, I’m still somewhat sensitive to advertisements, especially when it comes to makeup.

Jinli's casual movement is natural yet lively and brisk. The photographer thinks it will touch Domi's audience, including some working people.

A good advertisement can attract 50% customers!

The person in charge was silent for a long time and said, "I'll think about it."

Having said that, he turned around and went out to make a phone call.

The person in charge has the authority to temporarily add a 15s-30s advertisement and does not need to apply for this from the company.

Sui Lingfang suddenly received a call from the person in charge of Domi. She was stunned and thought that there was a problem with Jinli's filming, so she quickly picked up the phone.

After listening to it, I realized that they wanted to insert advertisements.

Sui Lingfang had a headache.

Cutting in line is very common. The more popular the star is, the more brands want to keep more footage for promotion during filming.

But we agreed to only take still photos, and suddenly we have to shoot soft commercials of less than 30 seconds, which is a bit too much of a stretch.

Even for Ru Meng Ling, it was just the purchase of an additional channel authorization for still photo promotion.

Sui Lingfang refused at first: "Jinli's schedule is busy, so forget it."

The person in charge repeatedly argued: "We can finish the filming today, in one hour. It only takes one hour to complete. The sets are all ready-made, and the background can be processed with special effects in the later stage."

Sui Lingfang: "But if you do this, it's hard for me to do it. Jinli also needs to communicate, and we clearly agreed to take photos at the beginning, and we didn't even discuss the price of the commercial..."

The person in charge said sincerely: "We will definitely give Jinli the market price, and this video will only be used for online and offline store promotion, and will not be used for anything else.

Jinli is still shooting stills, and she has only finished half of it. If you agree, we can set up the scene now, and Jinli won't have to wait too long."

Sui Lingfang thought for a few seconds, and simply decided not to make a decision herself, and threw it to Jinli.

"I'll discuss this with Jinli."

After a while, Jinli received a call from her agent.

Jinli asked: "That's what they told you. Can we really finish the filming in an hour?"

Sui Lingfang said in a deep voice: "I'm not at the scene, you can judge the situation better than me. Since the price will be given according to the market price, it depends on whether you bid or not. I think you can accept it or not, it all depends on your mood."

Jinli asked again: "Did you ask what this commercial was for?"

Sui Lingfang: "Yes, it is said that the video promotion of online and offline stores will increase the sales volume and make people feel the characteristics of lip mud more."

When Jinli heard this, she had already made a decision.

"I was shooting at Domi today and found that they are more professional than before. I am willing to help them shoot. After all, I have a deep cooperation with Domi and I have a dedicated product here.

But after all, this is an advertisement shoot, so we have to come up with a plan and the set design has to be done quickly. I don’t want to wait too long, so you can talk to them about the next thing.”

Sui Lingfang: “Okay.”

In just ten minutes, Sui Lingfang got the quotation. As for the contract, Duomi printed a copy for Jinli and signed it on the spot.

At the same time, Sui Lingfang also urged them to come up with a shooting plan within an hour. The team must review it before shooting. If the plan is not good, they can terminate the contract without compensation.

Jinli has long passed the stage of taking any job just to make money. Now she accepts advertising endorsements based on her own image. Instead of launching a lame advertisement, it is better not to shoot it at all.

But I don’t know whether Domi had planned to shoot the commercial a long time ago, or if she had actually chosen someone else to shoot the commercial and just temporarily replaced it with Jinli.

Only half an hour later, Domi came up with a complete plan.

The advertisement is only 30 seconds long, and within these 30 seconds, it repeatedly emphasizes the characteristics of the lip mud: it is easy to use, has rich colors, and has good ductility.

Jinli's wiping action is also the focus of their publicity.

Sui Lingfang went over the plan and felt it was okay, so she agreed to let Jinli shoot it.

So Jinli finished shooting the photos for the Autumn and Winter Lip Mud, rested for half an hour, and then seamlessly switched to shooting the commercial.

It is not an advertisement that needs to be released, so there is no need to be too meticulous in the picture. Jinli finished the shooting very efficiently, and it was basically shot with a green screen. The corresponding special effects and P-picture processing will be done in the later stage.

Although a job was added temporarily, the filming was still completed before 6 pm as usual. Jinli declined the dinner invitation from the person in charge and got in the car with Chen Qin.

She turned on the rear lights, pulled out a copy of Five-Three from her bag and continued studying.

Originally, Chen Qin wanted to share what she saw and heard today with Sister Jinli, but when she turned around and looked at Jinli, the familiar scene came to her mind again...

Ah, what an effort.

Ah, she doesn't deserve it.

Ah, she also needs to study hard!!

At the same time, Lu Shuxian called Qi Guan Mingzhu and asked, "Where are you?"

Qi Guan Mingzhu replied calmly: "I'm in the apartment."

She heard Lu Shuxian's background noise was a bit noisy, as if she was in a KTV.

But soon, Lu Shuxian moved to a quiet place and said happily: "The company is holding a party, why don't you come too? You haven't been to the company for a long time. Many newcomers want to meet you, and the president also wants to see you."

The latter sentence is added as a supplement; the former is the key point.

Qi Guan Mingzhu silently curled the corners of his mouth, with a hint of sarcasm.

"I'm not feeling well, so I won't go."

Lu Shuxian frowned, feeling something was wrong. She had been feeling depressed recently.

"Mingzhu, you..."

Before I could finish my words, the call was hung up.

good night
