Didn't you say that we would lose money after filming?

Chapter 185 Transformation

The director's name is Lin Sanshi. He graduated from the Shanghai Film Academy and is also this year's graduate.

He was also at a confused stage in his life, wondering what his future would be like. Would he end up like many people in the industry who were starving and had to shoot short dramas or rubbish commercials?
There is no way, because he was also a child from a poor family who was once young and frivolous, and then chose to become a director without knowing the consequences.

After five years in college, he gained profound insights and realized that the road of the film and television industry is indeed not something that poor people can navigate.

This is domestic entertainment, this is the Hanxia film and television circle!

Here, what is filmed is not a movie or TV drama, but human relationships, circles, and a microcosm of class and society.

Everyone is thinking about how to replicate other people’s ways of making money, and those who play together are people from the same background.

You are a kid from a poor family, and you want to radicalize their circle?

Then you are just dreaming, it is not possible at all.

Until Mr. Tang gave him this opportunity, Heye Film and Television gave him this opportunity.

At the beginning, he just submitted his resume and information to Heye Film and Television with the mentality of giving it a try, and he didn't have much hope that he could enter Heye Film and Television.

After all, the treatment of Heye Film and Television is so high that it is almost deified on the Internet.

How can it be so easy to get into a company that pays at least twice as much as its peers?
Especially since he himself doesn't think that he is a very awesome or outstanding person.

He was at best a mid-level graduate from the Beijing Film Academy with just the right grades.

When he finally received the offer with such a resume, Lin Sanshi himself was stunned.

He couldn't believe it. Heye Films really chose him! Really signed him!
This is undoubtedly a surprise.

Why did Heye Films choose him when there were so many better options? Did the company really want to lose money?
It is definitely impossible. Such a thing cannot exist. There is no company in this world that exists to lose money.

Then the only possibility is that the company recognizes him and believes in him!
This is not a company that only looks good!

In fact, when Lin Sanshi first entered college in his freshman and sophomore years, his grades were still very good, and he was even ranked first in the entire directing department.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will become the first graduate in the major like Director Xia.

But the problem is that in the following days, he gradually realized the barriers of this industry.

The barriers that existed everywhere but were indestructible tortured him day after day.

Finally, after realizing the cruelty of reality, he gradually gave up struggling and began to abandon himself.

I even thought, just forget it, graduate safely, get a diploma, and then muddle through for a while, and if there really is no improvement, I will change careers as soon as possible.

It's much better for me to study civil engineering and work as a mortar worker on a construction site than to work in this industry and starve. Sometimes, as a human being, why should we be too entangled in what to do? Dreams and the like are useless.

So, in this case, why did Heye Films choose to hire him? Then there is only one possibility left, and that is, the company discovered his shining points! Discovered his past extraordinary!

Even the company doesn’t care about the so-called portal!

This rekindled hope for Lin Sanshi, who had already been disappointed with the industry.

He came back to life.

Especially after I actually arrived at the company and felt the atmosphere.

Only then did he realize that his colleagues at Heye Film and Television did not really regard Heye as just a company or a job.

They really treat this place as their own home! They really have happy smiles on their faces!
Only after he had felt it himself could he understand. He had come to the right place!
Until now, he has actually directed a work himself, and it is a theatrical movie?

And I have a high degree of freedom? No one tells me what to do! ?
What kind of trust is this? What kind of care is this?
So in this case, can he betray the trust the company has placed in him?

If he lets her down, is he still a human being?

What Lin Sanshi is going to shoot is actually a costume love movie called "Three Generations of Stone"!

The script comes from a script that has been deposited in the company for a long time.

The investment is as high as 7700 million!
Indeed, if this were any other company, he would definitely not feel sorry for the boss’s money and would spend as much as he could. The company’s money had nothing to do with him anyway, so why should he worry about others?

But can Mr. Tang be the same? Can Heye Film and Television be the same?

He must not waste the company's trust in him!
You must make achievements of your own to show to the company and the boss!
So the first step, naturally, is to start by saving money!
Not only should you not overspend, it’s best to have some surplus at the end!
We must use the least amount of money to do the biggest things!

Similarly, similar situations were happening in six other crews.

"What? The company is going to lose money?! I won't allow that!!"

"The financial report is going to show a deficit? No! Absolutely not!"

"It's time to risk everything!!"

"Everyone, we just received our opening bonus a week ago. Everyone received at least 5, right? Are you willing to let the company lose money?"

"unwilling!"

"My wife is ill, and the company fully covers all the medical expenses, plus the medical insurance reimbursement, so I didn't spend a penny. If I watch the company lose money, am I still a human being?"

"We have seen what President Tang's attitude is towards employees. Even the most ordinary employees, as long as they come to the company with difficulties, the company has never said no and will help them if it can. With such a company and such a boss, how can we let them lose money?"

"The company is my home! Prosperity depends on everyone!"

"Do your best! Make a good movie!"

Meanwhile, on the other side.

The crew of "Bright Sword: Thunder Warrior".

The last shot of the day was being filmed, Xie Daga was directing with great satisfaction, and the actors on the scene were performing according to his script.

"Bah! This white flour bun is so disgusting! It's too hard to chew. Is this how people live? Oh, I don't know when I can eat meat. I'll have to wait until the Japanese are driven away."

"Beautiful! The eyes are on point!" Xie Daga exclaimed, very happy.

Look, this scene is to highlight the hardship of the war of resistance at that time. The soldiers could only chew on dry rations that were so hard that they could kill people.

Details! Details everywhere!
The next scene is the one featuring the leading actors.

Xie Daga shouted with a megaphone, "Is the makeup done? Hurry up, please? Remember to apply more hairspray, we must highlight the actors' images!"

In the crew of "Kuaishu", Xia Yuan and Tang Ying had already customized the clothes, submitted the order, then had dinner outside and returned to the crew.

They are about to start shooting for the night scene.

That is, Gao Qiqiang's transformation drama.
Xia Yuan held the script and talked to Zhang Tianyu about the play: "Teacher Zhang Tianyu, this scene is the most important. You must remember everything I will tell you next. This scene is related to the connection issues that follow. If you don't have any questions, we will go to the second set."

This scene is the one where Gao Qiqiang "kills someone" and divides the spoils with the two brothers of the Tang family, and then he achieves his full sublimation!
