Diamond company shoots commercials, you shoot Titanic

After hanging up the phone with Cha Zelei, Chen Xiao contacted the company first and told them about discussing cooperation with Cha Zelei's company. After hanging up the phone, he took out a piece of white paper, turned the pen, and roughly thought about the next schedule. Today is February 23. Next, the two companies will go through the process. If there are no problems, the "Letter of Intent for Cooperation" can be signed this month and the project will be applied for. There is nothing sensitive in this script, so it is estimated that there will be no problem and it will be approved in mid-March. There are about 20 days between them. He will draw a storyboard script and discuss the location with the main creative team. By the way, the director of "Home with Children" will be decided. Once the project is successfully approved in mid-March, formal preparations can begin.

Shooting will start in mid-April and will be completed in June. Then we will carry out marketing and promotion, and strive to release it in August.

In the North American market, the summer season is from late May to early September every year. The summer season coincides with the summer vacation, and there are more viewers. This is a good time period in the domestic market and many foreign markets.

This shooting is not too difficult. In addition to the common focus of casting, he also has to pay more attention to the lens and lighting. Because he has to create a sense of surveillance and uneasiness, making the film look more like an advertisement.

The schedule is roughly like this, and the time is still quite relaxed.

During this time, he will visit the crew of "Home with Kids". Then go to see the production of "Frozen" and occasionally visit the spring recruitment site.

If he is free again, he will create a variety show.

That's it. I'll take a nap first, and draw the storyboard script when I wake up.

…

“Hahaha! This Liu Xing is so cute.”

Mrs. Fang Rong walked out of the study room with the scripts, laughing so hard that she was out of breath.

She was holding the scripts for the episodes of “Home with Kids”. Yesterday, Chen Xiao randomly picked out a few episodes and gave them to Fang Rong.

Mrs. Fang saw Fang Rong lying on the sofa, concentrating on watching TV, so she sat on the sofa and continued:

“You’re making me laugh to death, Old Fang. Xia Xue, Xia Yu, Xia Bing Hail, hahaha. You even want to dye your hair green.”

“You’re really Xia Xue’s cute brother? I’m really Xia Xue’s cute brother.”

“No, I’m making me laugh to death, you should agree to it.”

Mrs. Fang put the script on the coffee table, then reached out and patted Fang Rong, who was concentrating on watching the TV series, and sighed: “I used to think that Chen Xiao was a very cute kid. Know how to deal with things. When filming "Farewell My Concubine", he fought for you to appear on CCTV! Otherwise, with your appearance, how could the audience remember you? "

Fang Rong slowly got up from the sofa, sat cross-legged, curled his lips slightly, and retorted:

"Hey, it's okay for you to praise him, but why do you have to step on me? What's wrong with my appearance? I'm not an actor, it's good enough for the audience to know my name. "

"Not bad, not bad." Mrs. Fang smiled and patted his arm and put the script in his hand.

"I haven't finished yet. I used to think that kid was good, but I didn't expect him to give you such a wonderful script directly. This is really rare in the film and television industry. You should agree to it quickly and shoot it quickly. I want to see it. "

Fang Rong took the script, sighed, and his eyes fell on the cover of the script and fell into silence.

"Hello? What are you doing? Although I am not from the film and television industry, I have watched TV for decades. This is a sitcom. There has been no such good work in China for almost 20 years. What are you hesitating about?"

Fang Rong glanced at her and sighed again.

He put down the script, walked to the window in slippers, looked out the window and sighed: "I... don't really want to accept it."

Mrs. Fang laughed out loud, "Have you watched too many TV dramas? You even walked to the window to pose while talking."

"Why did you expose me? How cool is it to say that you reject Chen Xiao's script with this pose? It feels like a hero." Fang Rong shrugged, walked back to the coffee table from the window, picked up the script and sat back in his original position.

"Old Fang, do you really want to refuse?"

Fang Rong nodded, touched the script, and felt reluctant.

"This is a good script and a good opportunity. Chen Xiao is interested. To become famous, I should take it. But I want to shoot something challenging. Compared with dramas or many movies, sitcoms have high requirements for scripts, scenes, and roles, and slightly lower requirements for directors. I am 51 years old and can't work for many years. I hope to break through myself."

Said

Later, Fang Rong's tone became more and more sad.

He didn't have a strong background. He had to work hard and climb to the ranks of top directors.

In order to be exposed and famous, he gradually gave up his creative ideas and catered to the market and capital.

He didn't shoot many works because he loved them, but because he made them for life and opportunities.

After he succeeded once, he kept copying the template.

He didn't dare to jump out of his comfort zone, let alone shoot an art film like Chen Xiao. He didn't dare to take risks, for fear that if he let go of an opportunity, he would let go of the last opportunity.

This is the sadness of not having a solid background.

But in the past year, he seemed to have gradually gained a kind of confidence.

"Old Fang, you have changed."

"Really? I think so too."

"You were a bitch before."

Fang Rong rolled his eyes, "I'm immersed in emotion, please don't ruin the atmosphere, okay?"

"You're right, you were a bitch before."

Fang Rong crossed his hands and hugged his head, falling on the back of the sofa.

"Indeed, because I am not a capital, I dare not offend anyone. But now I have won several international awards, and I am considered a veteran of Oriental Media. I am a comrade-in-arms with Director Chen, so I am indeed more confident."

I have to say that I really have to thank Chen Xiao.

I also thank my dog. It is precisely because of his dog that I did not quit the crew of "Farewell My Concubine" and today I don't need a dog.

Fang Rong sighed, "Who wants to be a dog? Isn't it for the family and for survival? Only single dogs like Chazelle dare to go crazy, right?"

As soon as he said this, Fang Rong was stunned.

Eh? Why did he suddenly think of Chazelle?

It should be because of the international awards mentioned just now?

Well, it must be this reason, otherwise?

Mrs. Fang flipped through the script reluctantly.

She was reluctant to part with this script, but as an old couple for many years, she also knew Fang Rong's thoughts. Of course she would support him.

Let others shoot it, anyway, as a viewer, she will see the finished film sooner or later.

Mrs. Fang was relieved of the script, "Old Fang, what are you going to do next?"
