Chapter 121 The Perfect Tool Man

The play took eight months to produce, with the main actors spending long periods of time in the mountains.

Yan Ni complained a little that the supermarket made her a little famous.

In addition, she has strong acting skills and is well-known, so many scripts were handed to her.

The drama Wulin was the lead role she took on before she became famous, so of course she wanted to perform well.

But the filming took too long, and the screenwriter wrote slower towards the end, so we had to wait.

Unlike stars and directors, it is important to maintain popularity.

It’s been five months since Supermarket was taken off the screen. Its original popularity was not maintained and it has started to decline.

Gradually, there were not many scripts looking for her.

Yan Ni was able to keep his composure and finish the filming, which shows how dedicated he is.

After the release of "Wulin Waijia", everyone will become famous.

Schedule means money, and it is difficult to get together to film again.

After dinner, chat.

Yan Ni told Shen Santong an incident: "Yao Chen's husband came to visit the set, drank some wine, and said, 'I will kill anyone who dares to bully my wife.'"

Yan Ni had a little knot in his heart, and he was like, "Who would bully someone?"

"Next time, if anyone dares to tell my wife about this, I will kill him." Shen Santong joked.

Shen Santong knew about this. He had seen Sha Yi mentioned it during an interview in his previous life.

When Sha Yi mentioned it, he said it in a joking tone, but he must have felt uncomfortable inside.

As an insider, Shen Santong probably understood the reason for this.

It’s very simple, Ling Xiaosu comes from a good family.

His family is the leader of a local film studio, so he has connections. He became the male lead before he even graduated, so he must be very ambitious.

In addition, many members of the Wulin crew were from the same unit, so he felt that he was supporting his wife and gaining face.

In other words, the people in this crew are relatively normal. If it were another crew, Yao Chen would be killed.

For the Hong Kong crew, asking Yao Chen to drink toilet water is an easy task; they can do it.

Shen Santong made a joke that made Yan Ni blush: "What wife? Get out!"

Yao Chen came over with some fruit in his hand and asked, "What are Director Shen and Sister Ni talking about in private?"

"Can I say it?" Shen Santong asked Yan Ni.

Yan Ni glanced at him and told him to stop making trouble: "What are you talking about? Talk about his new play."

"Director Shen, have you started preparations for your new play?" Yao Chen's eyes visibly lit up.

Shen Santong looked at Yan Ni speechlessly, and said to Yao Chen: "I said Sister Ni can play Mrs. Gan."

"Then what role can I play, Director Shen?" Yao Chen flirted with Shen Santong on the spot.

In other words, there are too many people, and it is hard to say what a small number of people can accomplish.

Shen Santong shook his head: "It's not written in the script, how would I know."

He didn't even want to tell Yao Chen a joke.

This is just a joke. The other party will definitely find a way to get close to you, and it will be difficult to shake you off.

What can I say about this woman?

The more I like Guo Furong, the more I hate her.

Ruining Guo Furong’s character is enough, I don’t want to ruin another one.

They ate, drank and chatted. When someone asked about Chibi, he just laughed it off.

Silent all night.

No one knocked on the door.

The conditions of the Wulin crew are very ordinary. If something happens, everyone knows about it, and no one can do anything they want in the mountains.

"Goodbye, Director Shang, I wish you great ratings."

Shen Santong left the mountain after his guest appearance.

Yao Dazui suggested going down the mountain to sing karaoke, implying that he should give him enough money, but he refused.

There was an important matter he needed to take care of.

Guo Fan came to surrender.

After seeing Guo Fan's resume, Shen Santong lost all interest.

Go straight back to the company.

The director of "The Wandering Earth", the famous sci-fi Daji, single-handedly opened the door to Chinese science fiction films, but for many years afterwards, no one could get in again.

"My Deskmate" is a youth film that expresses the feelings of family and country, the hatred of the embassy, ​​and the pleasure of crashing into a building.

Looking at the film industry, there are very few normal people.

Guo Fan's resume reached Shen Santong because he is a talent.

211 university, major in law.

I produced some excellent photography works during college and also have experience working in a TV station.

“No wonder he can make science fiction movies.”

Shen Santong finally understood Guo Fan's experience after reading his resume. He didn't know much about his experience in his previous life.

Guo Fan's academic qualifications are not high enough in the film and television industry, where illiteracy is rampant and a large number of art students gather.

It is definitely a high level of education.

He was a college student in 1999, and he graduated from Shandong, a province with a large number of college entrance examination candidates, so his college entrance examination results are very valuable.

Only with this kind of academic qualifications can one understand science fiction films.

Why not change to another director, like Teng Huatao, the director of "Shanghai Fortress".

Because he was one of Gao Yuanyuan's predecessors, Shen Santong knew this guy's background very well.

He studied literature at Beijing Film Academy, and he had a father who had a high status and connections in the circle.

With a Beijing hukou, art school, family bonus, and maximum admission buffs, you can imagine how good he is.

I've had enough of being in the entertainment industry.

But when it comes to making science fiction films, if you ask him to do anything other than romance, he won't understand, and he won't bother to understand.

As soon as Shen Santong saw Guo Fan, he was sure that he was the science fiction Daji, and he couldn't let him get away: "Brother Guo, you are a talent. Our company has been waiting for a talent like you for too long."

At first sight, I recognized him as the best tool.

The temptation of making a science fiction film made him work like crazy.

He slept three hours a day while filming The Wandering Earth, which proves that he has great work potential.

Shen Santong is not that cruel.

Let him sleep eight hours a day, work fifteen hours, and then give him one hour to rest.

Hearing Shen Santong's tone, Guo Fan got goosebumps. "No, Director Shen, don't call me brother. I don't deserve it. Just call me Guo Fan. Actually, we are not only from the same hometown, but we almost became alumni."

Guo Fan is quite good at communication.

Talking about the past when he wanted to apply to Beijing Film Academy but was not admitted.

"It's a good thing you didn't go to Beijing Film Academy, otherwise you would be ruined."

Shen Santong was shocked when he didn't expect Guo Fan to have such an experience.

Chinese science fiction movies are almost doomed!

"."Guo Fan was speechless.

I don’t know what to say. No, do you have such a big opinion about your alma mater?
Shen Santong got straight to the point: "When can you come to work?"

Shen Santong has no shortage of people, but most of them are graduates of film academies.

Technical jobs are okay, jobs that require a little personal insight and decision-making.

It cannot be done if it requires mixing in personal opinions.

Either it's about literary youth, self-expression, or it turns to some meaning or art.

Either they are critical and self-hating, or they unconsciously lean toward the outside and naturally take an outward-looking stance.

Can't change it.

Shen Santong is not a man without experience, he knows it very well.

Don't try to change adults!
Adults adapt to each other. If they can adapt, they get along with each other. If they can't, they just leave.

If it's a colleague, you have to endure the same scene.

There is no such thing as changing the other person. Shen Santong has never seen an adult being changed by others.

Only a few people hit a wall and then changed.

Trying to change adults will only bring pain to yourself.

Shen Santong really needs someone like Guo Fan, who can prove himself to be a normal person in later generations.

Some not-so-big decisions need to be made by people with normal aesthetic tastes.

The perfect tool!
Guo Fan was a little flattered by Shen Santong's attitude: "Don't you want to test it?"

He received a reply asking him to come to BJ for an interview as soon as possible and that his travel expenses, accommodation and lost wages would be reimbursed, so he came.

The pace is so fast that it's scary.

"I read your resume, the letter you wrote, and some of your work. I value your aesthetic."

Shen Santong thought, I know you better than you do, and said calmly; "You said you wanted to make a science fiction film, and you can't find an opportunity anywhere else except me. I plan to train you well. You should complete the handover of your original work as soon as possible, so you should be able to catch up with the post-production, learn how to do it, and then join the "Red Cliff" project as an assistant director."

"As soon as possible."

When Guo Fan walked out of the building, he felt as if he had entered a scam den.

I don't know how I decided to join and then signed a letter of intent. Everything happened so fast.

"Maybe he was moved by my dream." Guo Fan thought, and he wrote a letter to Shen Santong, telling him about his dream.

I can't help but sigh that there are still so many idealists.

At the same time, he seemed to have figured out some skills.

Shen Santong felt that his control over rhythm would be very useful in persuading people.

A club where the Hong Kong directors circle gathers.

"Shen Santong is such an idiot! He is clearly against our Hong Kong circle." Wu Yusen couldn't help but curse.
