Became the best actor, the system just finished loading

Chapter 134: Overspending is Overspending (Please Double the Monthly Tickets)
There is no problem with Zeng Li's appearance. Although her resources are not particularly good, she is not without opportunities to play the leading role. Unfortunately, she has never taken them.

This makes it difficult not to associate it with metaphysics.

When their classmates had a reunion, someone jokingly suggested that they could try to spread a scandal with Qi Hao.

Just as there was an opportunity for "The Piano in a Factory", Qin Hailu introduced it to her.

Zeng Li only played a small supporting role in "The Piano in a Factory".

But she didn't dislike it.

Movie resources are inherently higher-end than TV dramas.

Many of the so-called top-ranked actors in TV dramas can only play minor supporting roles in movies.

The role played by Zeng Li this time is not too difficult.

Her first scene with Wang Qianyuan was a bit like a drama performance.

This is not difficult for them who graduated from the Chinese Academy of Drama. As long as they listen carefully in class and do their homework, it is not difficult to complete.

Zeng Li also knew Wang Qianyuan.

The head teacher of their 96 acting class was Professor Chang Li, who was very strict in teaching and assigned a lot of homework.

If you fail to complete your assignments, you may even be asked to drop out of school.

Aunt Zhang Ziyi and Liu Ye were unable to finish their homework and cried in panic. While crying, they went to ask their senior brother for help. In the end, with the help of their senior brother, they managed to perform a skit and managed to get through it.

It is said that this senior brother is Wang Qianyuan.

He is the class monitor of Class 93.

Later, Hu Jing also found him for help in designing a sketch.

In fact, Wang Qianyuan's acting skills are really good.

I just don't know why he is not popular.

"Pass……"

Qi Hao filmed the second scene once first, and then fell into deep thought.

This tastes a bit wrong.

Just when Zhang Meng wanted to go over and tell him what the problem was, Qi Hao suddenly figured it out on his own.

He directed the camera crew to adjust the camera position.

It is usually most comfortable to set up the camera at the level of the average audience's sight, and this was also the case with previous filming.

However, Qi Hao found that the picture alone could not create a sufficient sense of confrontation.

It's impossible for you to give me a knife and I to give you a knife.

So he downgraded his camera position to an unusual upward shooting angle.

The picture gives a mid-shot of the two characters, explaining the relationship between the characters - two people who are standing opposite to each other on the left and right. The background behind them also clearly implies that the current conditions of the two people are unequal, both economically and in terms of ability.

The left side where Wang Qianyuan was located was obviously more dilapidated.

To the right of his wife is a more modern and orderly building.

Even the shed above and behind him was dilapidated on one side and intact on the other, like a pair of chicken wings of an angel.

The upward shooting angle allows the audience to clearly feel the confrontation between the two people, and their positions in the confrontation are very firm.

In order to further highlight this effect, Qi Hao asked Zeng Li to change her black coat into a brighter light color.

What follows is a shot commonly used in Hollywood narratives, a medium shot of two people followed by a cross-cut shot, one for you and one for me.

With lines like "Divorce is a matter of mutual fulfillment, you let me go and I let you go", the feeling of confrontation reaches its climax.

The final effect was indeed very good.

Zhang Meng rubbed his bearded chin.

This kid is a little unusual. He actually thinks the same as him.

If the previous good handling was due to someone teaching him, then the switching of the camera angles would be enough to prove that Qi Hao has talent in this area.

In the business of directing, talent is a very important thing.

If you have skills but no talent, you are at most a bricklayer. But once you have talent, you become an architect.

If you're lucky, it's possible to create a classic in film history.

"Brother Meng, Brother Meng!"

Qi Hao's call brought Zhang Meng back to his senses: "What's wrong?"

"I'm going to handle it this way, do you think it's okay?"

Qi Hao had no confidence at all. He felt nervous as it was his first time as a director and he needed advice from Zhang Meng, a veteran.

"Yes, very good!"

What else could Zhang Meng say?

I thought you were the one sitting there watching me direct, but I was the one sitting there unable to get a word in.

Actually, it’s not that exaggerated.

After all, this is Zhang Meng's book. Zhang Meng has his own way of expressing it, and Qi Hao has his own understanding. There is definitely no way for the two to be absolutely consistent.

Therefore, Zhang Meng still had many opportunities to express his opinions.

But Qi Hao will not blindly obey. He can also grow through communication and arguments.

And Qi Hao wasn’t just looking for Zhang Meng.

For a movie to come to life, it certainly cannot rely solely on the director.

Photography, art, planning, lighting and other aspects all need to contribute their professional abilities.

Most of these people are professionally trained and have solid theoretical knowledge.

What Qi Hao needs to do is to control the abilities of these people and ultimately present an effect that meets his standards.

We shot the exterior scenes for several days in a row.

Even if the crew members were not convinced by Qi Hao, at least no one would think that Qi Hao was just a decoration anymore.

Moreover, Qi Hao also left the impression of a workaholic on the crew.

He works more than twelve hours a day.

This film was not divided into groups A and B, and the two executive directors were only destined to be assistants. At most, they occasionally had the opportunity to shoot some unimportant shots under the guidance of Zhang Meng.

Actors can work in two shifts, and the staff can coordinate so they don't have to work more than ten hours, but director Qi Hao stays on the set from beginning to end every day. The key is that he doesn't show any signs of fatigue even after working for twelve hours.

After resting on the lounge chair for ten minutes or so, I suddenly felt full of energy.

That’s right, a lounge chair!

With the system version of the lounge chair, you can make it as you like.

If he wasn't worried about being sent for slice research if his performance was too exaggerated, and Qi Hao had to set aside eight hours in the evening to enter the training space, he might have shot for sixteen hours a day.

Even so, the filming progress of "The Piano in a Factory" was not too fast.

After all, it was Qi Hao's first time directing, and he was unwilling to compromise, so there were often many shots that he was not satisfied with after shooting them once, or when he suddenly had a new idea, he would shoot another version.

Shoot over and over again.

After taking the photo, you can overturn it and take it again.

There was even one scene where Qi Hao brought his crew back to reshoot it three days after filming was completed.

Zhang Meng had to remind him that it would be easy to go overspending if he did this.

The average film-to-film ratio for domestic films is 1:3, which means that three feet of film is used to shoot one foot of scene.

To direct "Sunny Days", Jiang Wen burned 25 feet of film, and the finished film ratio was 1:15.

Although Qi Hao was not as exaggerated as Jiang Wen.

But the average consumption exceeded 1:6, which made Zhang Meng feel very distressed. If he were to shoot the film, he could achieve 1:2.5 or even 1:2.

I didn't expect that someone like you with thick eyebrows and big eyes would also overspend.

Qi Hao doesn't care, let it be overspending.

Jiang Wen overspent by tens of millions, so much so that the producer wanted to run away, while he only overspent by tens of millions at most.

At worst, we can just make additional investments.

New Year's Day is coming soon, and 2009 is approaching with firm steps.

In the past year, there were disasters and the Olympics, and with the help of the system and Gao Yang's favor, Qi Hao stepped into the ranks of capital.

The other foot can only be stepped in after the movie is released and makes a profit.

If it can make a profit, it will naturally become a hot commodity in the capital market. If it cannot make a profit, although Gao Yang will not say anything, Qi Hao's investment will definitely become more conservative.

He is not as shameless as Taoist Suiyun.

This fake Taoist priest had a great time in Northeast China and didn't want to leave. He stayed there for more than ten days before leaving reluctantly.

Qi Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

He was very worried that this fake Taoist priest would be caught by the police, in which case he would have to send someone to pay the fine.

It seems that the offender will be subject to administrative detention of not less than 10 days and not more than 15 days, and may also be fined not more than 5000 yuan.

If one of your colleagues suddenly stops coming to work and asks you to borrow money, he may have been caught for being a vagrant.

The filming process for Qi Hao was not all smooth sailing.

He had been mentally prepared for this. After all, he had been filming for more than ten years. In the past, whatever happened on the crew had nothing to do with him. He was only responsible for filming.

Now that he's a director, all the pressure is on him.

When the accident happened, the crew was filming a motorcycle team going out to catch the irresponsible villain who got Fat Head's daughter pregnant.

The will-o'-the-wisp boy that every old man hates.

When driving out of the factory gate, two motorcycles collided with each other.

Although the speed was not particularly fast, one of the extras was still injured.

Qi Hao quickly had the injured extras sent to the hospital.

However, that afternoon, family and friends of the extras came over, and more than a dozen people rushed to the crew demanding compensation.

In fact, the crew would have lost money anyway.

But it's obvious that these people want more than just medical expenses, nutrition expenses, and lost wages, which the show originally promised, they also want compensation for mental damage.

There is no such thing as compensation for mental damage.

What's more, the reason why the two motorcycles collided was mainly due to improper operation of the extras themselves. It's just that the crew would waste a lot of money if they stopped for a day, so they chose not to pursue it.

As expected, the family members of this group of actors asked for 500,000 yuan in mental damages.

It's pure blackmail.

Qi Hao definitely wouldn't give it to him, it was just a scratch, not even a broken bone.

At this time, the role of asking Zhang Meng to be the producer comes into play.

Zhang Meng called for help without saying anything.

Don't forget that this is Tieling.

Zhang Meng's father is the director of "Country Love", and the leading actor of this TV series is Zhao Benshan.

Zhang Meng himself has also collaborated with Zhao Benshan many times, serving as the director and screenwriter for Zhao Benshan's sketches.

After passing Shanhaiguan, if you have any problems, find Zhao Benshan.

The King of Northeast was indeed extraordinary. This group of people arrived at two o'clock in the afternoon. Zhang Meng called at two-thirty, and they left at two-forty-five. It was only an hour in total.

He didn't even dare to say a harsh word before leaving.

If it can be solved, that would be great. But if it can't be solved, the boss Gao behind us is not someone to be trifled with.

He can open bars and nightclubs in various places, but he can't do that without some energy.

I am not afraid of you taking up legal weapons, I am afraid that you will put down the law and take up weapons.

In January, Qi Hao returned to the capital.

Penguin invited him to attend the Penguin Star Ceremony 2008 as a guest.

The Penguin event was held very grandly this time.

It is said that three to four hundred celebrity artists in the circle were invited.

Qi Hao decided to attend without much thought.

It didn’t matter whether he participated or not in the past, but this time, he is a shareholder of Penguin and holds more than 650 million shares of Penguin. He will definitely support the activities organized by his own company.
