Entertainment begins with the talk of young China

Chapter 117 Director Please Take Your Place

"Ding dong! Congratulations to the host for breaking 50 sales of physical records and completing the task: I will define the music world!"

"Get the reward, Silver Treasure Chest*3."

In a certain hotel, the script reading of the crew of "The Beginning" is in progress.

In Qi Ji's mind, the system's voice rang.

It has been several days since I came to the set.

He didn't pay much attention to record sales.

Unexpectedly, it actually achieved a sales volume of 50!
He quickly opened the system panel.

Name: Qi Ji.

Music: 85.

Performances: 71.
Director: 62.
Others: not yet unlocked.

Cultural communication degree: 12324323.
Items: Silver Treasure Chest*5, Work Customization Opportunity*2, Novel "No Survival"*1.

Task 800: Since the host has successfully entered the crew, please exert your efforts and play your role well!Win the Golden Dragon Award for Best Newcomer!Mission reward: the novel "[-] Million Ways to Die".

Task [-]: Famous in the piano world!In view of the fact that the host has released several piano pieces and gained a lot of attention, the host is asked to deepen the field of piano and carry more excellent piano pieces.Task reward: the script "Pounding Heartbeat". "

"Mission [-]: A novice director! The host in the previous life was a first-class producer in the music industry. It's time to get out of your comfort zone and challenge more unknowns. Ask the host to make a theater movie that can be shown in theaters. Task reward: God A level acting skill book."

Because the previous mission has been completed, the mission is updated at this moment.

And when Qi Ji saw Mission 2, he fell silent.

I am a little silly!

The system doesn't seem to say that you can only receive one task at a time, right?

I played "Canon" at the school's exchange meeting before, isn't it in line with task two?

If I picked it up myself before, wouldn't it be finished?

Miscalculated!

So Qi Ji hurriedly asked: "System, can I do these three tasks at the same time?"

System: "Yes."

Hey!
Sure enough!I have lost money before!
Therefore, Qi Ji made a decisive decision and took all three tasks.

"Qi Ji, don't be distracted, kid!" Qian Sansui knocked on the table and said with a smile.

The script reading has been going on for five days.

Today is the last day.

Script reading means that all the actors sit together and go through the script as a whole.

Because capital invaded the entertainment circle on a large scale.

So this project, in fact, many crews, did not do it.

Even, many production crews write the script today and shoot the next day.

Because it is necessary to adjust the script according to the leading role at all times.

There are also some, that is, the director himself, who is a geek.

As the play was filming, a lot of weird ideas popped up in my mind, and I had to change the script at any time.

But this kind of thing usually happens to film directors.

Director Qian Sansui is relatively traditional.

He has high requirements for the script.

At the same time, the requirements for the actors themselves are also very high.

So he needed such an occasion to conduct a preliminary training on the actors.

In the whole play, except for the two new actors, Qi Ji and Feng Muyu.

The other important supporting roles are basically old actors who often cooperate with Qian Sansui.

Little reputation.

But the acting skills are all online.

Especially the actress who plays Aunt Guo, her name is Zhang Hongrui, she is over 40 this year, and she has played supporting roles in TV dramas all the year round, and she can easily handle various roles.

She also won two Golden Dragon Awards for Best Supporting Actress.

Can be regarded as a very powerful actor.

The cast of "The Beginning" didn't have a big budget.

Both Qi Ji and Feng Muyu are new actors.

Although Qi Ji is already very famous as a singer.

But he hasn't proven himself in acting yet.

In addition, the script was written by Qi Ji himself, and he has a share of the income.

So Qi Ji didn't get much money.

Several old actors are quite satisfied with the script of "The Beginning".

After everyone received Qian Sansui's invitation, they immediately agreed.

There is absolutely no twists and turns in the middle.

And when everyone learned that the script was actually written by Qi Ji, all the old actors were shocked.

Before joining the group, everyone's impression of Qi Ji was that he was an idol who was born in a draft.

No one would have imagined that Qi Ji was able to write a book of the quality of "The Beginning"!

"Okay, script reading, that's it, take a day off tomorrow, and then we will officially start filming!" Qian Sansui said.

Everyone relaxed.

Although not actually filming.

But everyone is very involved.

For example, Auntie Guo's actor Zhang Hongrui is very into herself.

I was about to cry.

After reading, Qian Sansui invited everyone to dinner.

During the banquet, Qi Ji and Feng Muyu sat together.

"Don't talk about it, you two look really good for each other!" Someone looked at Qi Ji and the two and said with a smile.

Feng Muyu pursed her lips and ate her vegetables without saying a word.

Qi Ji said: "This is my first script, I am very grateful to all the teachers for participating! Especially Director Qian, I have to learn how to film from you!"

Qian Sansui said, "What's the matter? Are you going to be a director in the future?"

Qi Ji said, "Something like that!"

"Hahaha! Knowing that you wrote the script of "The Beginning", I know that your kid's thinking is not just as simple as being a screenwriter."

"But, with your good looks, it's a pity for you to go behind the scenes! Practice your acting skills well, and strive to become a best actor in the future!"

Feng Muyu also laughed and said: "Qi Ji is not a quiet person! He is already very good at being a singer! He insists on coming to grab a meal with us!"

Qian Sansui: "That's not right, I have to thank Qi Ji! I have to thank you for the script! I've been filming martial arts for many years, and to be honest, I've never seen your story! It's so well written! In several places, I have been so moved!"

Although eating.

But everyone's topic is still inseparable from "The Beginning".

Everyone expressed their views on the characters they played.

At this time, Teacher Zhang Hongrui praised: "I heard them read a poem written by Qi Ji to me yesterday, that's 'a crane in the clear sky, and the poetic feeling is drawn to the blue sky', I suddenly understood The meaning of your hero and heroine! You really put your heart into it!"

When Zhang Hongrui said this, the scene immediately exploded.

"What? Teacher Zhang, what did you say?"

"That poem by Qi Ji! When the sky is clear and the cranes line up on the clouds, the poetic sentiment will be drawn to the blue sky!"

This matter was pointed out by Zhang Hongrui.

Everyone present was shocked.

Qian Sansui looked at Qi Ji in amazement, and said, "I've seen this poem of yours before. To be honest, I didn't make any contact with it myself! This Easter egg of yours is so well buried!"

Feng Muyu had already guessed about Qi Ji's little thought before, but seeing most of the people here now, they didn't even know about it.

In her heart, she was quite proud.

"Qi Ji, you've been smart since you were young!" Feng Muyu praised.

Qi Ji smiled and said, "No way! We both grew up wearing crotch pants together!"

"Fuck you!" Feng Muyu spat.

Suddenly, Qian Sansui also heard something, and said with a smile: "In our drama, the cell phone ringtone used in the loop is also the piano piece "Reincarnation" written by Qi Ji himself! Qi Ji's musical talent is the most powerful of!"

In the script, the ringtone that Aunt Guo set for the bomb is a sort of introduction.

The "Canon" was used in the drama of the previous life. Later, in a certain cycle, a female policeman also used this ringtone, which shocked the heroine.

This is a very common ringtone in an old mobile phone.

When Qi Ji was discussing the script with Qian Sansui, he originally wanted to use the regular ringtones of this world.

But after Qi Ji thought about it, he chose to use this song "Canon".

In this world, it was named "Reincarnation" by Qi Ji.

The male and female protagonists in the story are constantly circulating in the short period of time before the bus explosion.

There is a sense of endless reincarnation.

In addition, Qi Ji also wanted to take advantage of this TV series to increase the degree of cultural communication.

But at this moment, when Director Qian said this, everyone's mood became quite complicated.

This Qi Ji has really completed most of the work in this drama!
The script was written by Qi Ji.

The leading actor is from Qi Ji.

A small cell phone ringtone in the series was written by Qi Ji himself!
This Qi Ji is really amazing!
You know, at this moment, he seems to be under 22 years old, right?
At Qi Ji's age, what are you still doing?
In school, study?

In short, it is absolutely impossible for Qi Ji to be so mature!
I have to say, if it was before, they knew that Qi Ji was just an idol, and they didn't know what acting skills Qi Ji was.

After reading the script for the past few days, Qi Ji's status in the hearts of several veteran actors in the play is really rising!

This is not.

Zhang Hongrui said: "The people here today are not outsiders... I have to apologize to Qi Ji. Seriously, before you, I looked down on these so-called idols in our country. Just last year, I’m not filming an urban life drama. The leading actor is Lu Yitao. This person is very popular on the Internet. At that time, when we were on the set, we often had many young sisters waiting outside the set. Follow him and cheer him on."

Zhang Hongrui's face became extremely contemptuous: "So you know what this Lu Yitao is doing in the crew when he's free? He doesn't even read the script. Even his assistant is more familiar with the script than him. I didn't play him in the play." Mom, so I had a lot of scenes with him. In my impression, there were at least seven or eight scenes, and he couldn't even recite the words on the scene!"

This incident aroused Qi Ji's curiosity.

After all, Lu Yitao is the mentor of "Natural Idol".

"Then how did you solve this problem in the end? The film has to be filmed, and the production crew has one more day, so that's a lot of money!" Qi Ji asked.

Zhang Hongrui said helplessly: "There is no other way, we can only ask him to read one, two, three, four, five, six, and seven first, and then dub it later."

Feng Muyu's eyes widened immediately: "Is it still possible to do this!?"

She was indeed surprised.

She was a good kid in school.

So she is familiar with many things that the acting teacher taught her.

For example, reciting lines, Feng Muyu asked himself, isn't this the basic skill of an actor?

Qi Ji was not surprised.

The traffic all over the world looks the same.

In fact, many times, you can't completely blame them.

Most of the time, they are pushed forward by the capital behind them.

Sometimes, there is not even a chance to take a breath.

Qian Sansui waved his hand. He had actually seen quite a lot of what Zhang Hongrui said: "I'm annoyed at seeing this."

Qi Ji: "The director, would you use such an actor?"

Qian Sansui said helplessly: "Although I don't like such actors very much, sometimes there is nothing I can do. Sometimes, people who are forced by the management can only bear it."

Feng Muyu sighed and said: "When you are in such a position as Qian Dao, you can't completely decide the filming by yourself!"

An actor sitting next to Director Qian laughed immediately: "That's for sure! A drama, let alone an investment of tens of millions, of course the capital is my father!"

Qian Sansui raised his wine glass and said, "Fortunately, our film crew didn't have such bad things. In the next few months, we will focus on filming our scenes well!"

The filming of "The Beginning" started very low-key.

With the exception of a few media outlets, they published news of the start-up of the crew in a certain corner of the website.

Except for Qi Ji's fans, basically no one cares about the launch of this show.

After all, the most popular character in this drama is Qi Ji.

It is late autumn now.

But the setting of the script is in summer.

So when you are acting, you have to deliberately create a little summer feeling.

The persuasive aspect of the play.

Basically nothing to worry about.

After all, the whole drama has been looping.

So everyone's costumes, it seems, are just a pair of trousers and you're done.

It's just that everyone has prepared three sets that are exactly the same.

It was also Qi Ji's first time to participate in the filming of a real crew.

And he himself really wanted to learn from Qian Sansui's shooting experience.

So he takes every day very seriously.

So much so that Feng Muyu teased him, "The Beginning" is worthy of being the son she is pregnant with, it is from head to toe, you should care about its birth!

time flies.

Qi Ji's filming in "The Beginning" was proceeding in such an orderly manner.

……

After the glory of "Natural Idol", Wang Zhe took a break.

Then, he started a new journey.

He has done a lot of variety shows before, most of them are about trainees.

But this time, he and his team set their sights on the director.

He wants to make a variety show about directors!

A variety show where directors compete with each other!
This is a variety show that has never appeared in the industry!

Looking at the longer and longer PPT, Wang Zhe's team was suddenly excited!

Taking this variety show planning PPT, Wang Zhe first visited Director Pi Changjun.

After the two chatted for 3 hours, Director Pi Changjun became the first contracted director of this show.

He is still looking for players to compete.

Well-known directors in the industry, new directors who have just graduated, well-known actors who want to be directors, and Internet celebrities who shoot short videos.

He screened round after round and invited many people.

The lineup is getting bigger and bigger.

But I always feel that it's almost meaningless.

Compared with "Natural Idol", it always seems to be a little bit worse.

Then one day.

The team showed Wang Zhe a MV.

That's the MV for "Chapter 7 of the Night".

"It was taken by Qi Ji himself," said the team.

This sentence immediately ignited the flame in Wang Zhe's heart.

To be honest, the plot of this MV filmed by Qi Ji is indeed very good.

It's very good to see Qi Ji's skill.

Wang Zhe understood.

Compared with "Natural Idol", his new variety show lacks nothing else.

It's Qi Ji!

……

In January, the weather was cold and there was light snow in Chaoyang City.

The filming of "The Beginning" has reached its final stage.

Wang Zhe met Qi Ji in the crew.

"Director Wang, long time no see!" Qi Ji said with a smile wrapped in a thick down jacket.

During this time, the crew has suffered.

The weather is getting colder and colder, but the time in the play is always summer.

So when everyone is officially filming, they wear very little.

But as soon as it was over, everyone immediately wrapped themselves in thick clothes.

There is no way, the winter in Chaoyang City is really a bit cold.

"Wow! You boy, this is getting more and more handsome!" Wang Zhe patted Qi Ji's shoulder, "I don't know if I don't check, you have started acting!"

"It's beyond Director Wang's expectations, right?" Qi Ji sat down, frantically frustrating his slightly stiff hands.

"I heard that the cumulative sales of the album "Miracle" has exceeded 100 million!" Wang Zhe asked.

Qi Ji nodded and said, "Well, it's all everyone's favor!"

"This is your strength."

"How is it? Have you learned anything under Director Qian?"

"Don't tell me, Director Qian is worthy of being Director Qian. He has a lot of things, really awesome! I have learned a lot in the past two months!"

"Do you want to control the camera by yourself and start shooting?" Wang Zhe asked with a half-smile.

"Of course I want to..." Qi Ji half-spoken, and looked at Wang Zhe jokingly, "Director Wang, hurry up and talk about your business today!"

Wang Zhe laughed loudly: "I'm preparing a variety show!"

"Singing?"

"No, it's about directors! A variety show about director competition!" Wang Zhe's eyes lit up!
Qi Ji frowned: "Competition for directors... Film and television dramas are actually very personal. When the time comes, how do you compare? Live audience votes? How do you balance literary films and commercial films?"

Wang Zhe said: "That's right, it's the directors participating in the competition. One person shoots a movie. Whoever gets the most likes from the audience will be promoted... In short, movies are made for the audience to watch!"

Wang Zhe opened the PPT for Qi Ji, and focused on explaining the flow of the program to Qi Ji.

Qi Ji listened very carefully.

He had a dream of making a movie.

Otherwise, during this period of time, he would not have studied filming with Qian Sansui so seriously.

In the form of variety shows, enter the words of filming.

In fact, for me, it is much better than starting to make theater movies directly and easily.

After Wang Zhe finished speaking, Qi Ji was moved.

"How about it? After the new year, our program will officially start recording! Come on, even if it's just for fun!" Wang Zhe said.

The whole program, the current idea, is divided into three rounds.

Judging from the current lineup, Qi Ji has a high probability of being in the first round.

Wang Zhe knew the entire director lineup.

He didn't tell Qi Ji.

But he has a steelyard in his heart.

After all, Qi Ji, at the moment, is just an idol.

At most, plus the identity of an actor.

Inviting Qi Ji, one is because of Qi Ji's popularity.

The second is that it can be seen that Qi Ji really likes filming.

Otherwise, I would not shoot my own MV.

If Qi Ji participated in this show, then its popularity and attention will not be low.

As for Qi Ji himself, he can also realize his dream.

It's a win-win thing.

This is the truest thought in Wang Zhe's heart.

"Director Wang, I agree." Qi Ji also agreed decisively.

The program "Director Please Take Your Place" is still the top variety show of this year created by the two major video platforms!

The momentum of the program is very large.

After Qi Ji also confirmed to officially join the show.

The 16 contestants of the whole program are all in order.

mid-January.

The crew of "The Beginning" is finished.

The wrap-up banquet was held at one of the best restaurants in Chaoyang City.

Together with Feng Muyu and others, Qi Ji poured Qian Sansui a few bottles of wine.

The first TV series in Qi Ji's life, even if it was completed like this.

The post-production of "The Beginning" also began to proceed nervously.

According to common sense, if Qi Ji is an ordinary actor, in fact, he has basically completed the play when he is here.

It can only be said that when the show is broadcast in the future, it is enough to cooperate with the publicity.

But Qi Ji was different.

Qi Ji is the screenwriter of "The Beginning".

Qi Ji has the right to edit the film, which was decided before the filming started.

Qian Sansui, a big director, usually holds the right to edit his own plays very tightly.

After all, after filming a movie for so many months, the amount of material accumulated is very huge.

For another person, it is entirely possible to cut out a completely different story.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many so-called director's cut movies.

Moreover, the film "The Beginning" originally filmed two endings.

Therefore, the screenwriter Qi Ji participated in the editing together, which Qian Sansui recognized very much.

So even though the crew has already wrapped up.

For example, Feng Muyu has returned to school and is preparing for some final tasks at the end of the semester.

Qi Ji, on the other hand, still runs between the school and the company.

After all, he is a senior student, and this semester, the college will not have a final exam.

Qi Ji stamped himself an internship in the company and handed it back to school.

It can be regarded as completing my internship task, and I have earned another 2 credits.

in this way.

The credits of Qi Ji's entire college career are considered enough.

In the next semester, you can graduate normally.

The only thing missing right now is the graduation thesis.

As for the topic of his thesis, Qi Ji had already conceived it.

Time flies so fast, and soon, there are only a few days left before the Chinese New Year.

And Qi Ji was invited to the premiere of the movie "The Legend of Swordsman".

"Add Money Layman" is about to meet the audience.
