Fuck me, I want to fly [Transmigration Book]
Chapter 69
It passed the trial... The producer suddenly felt a little regretful.
For 3000 million to make such a fuss...
I didn't catch anything at all, and offended the two of them in one breath.
……
Fortunately, I heard that Ji Yexi only met Mr. Duan in the TV drama crew. Mr. Duan recommended him to audition, but he didn't directly arrange for him to join the group, so the producer's heart eased a little.
But the master who can take out 4000 million in one breath...
He still couldn't help but look back at Ji Yexi, and saw that the young man was talking to Zuo Yan, with a white face and red lips, looking very gratifying in the oppressive carriage.
...For some reason, the producer suddenly regretted it.
I regret why I agreed there just now.
If I had known it earlier, I would have rejected it directly.
He had a faint feeling...he couldn't afford to provoke this young man.
No one can mess with it!
Ji Yexi was chatting with Director Zuo in the car and forgot the time for a while, and when the car drove all the way, when he finally got to the place, he realized that almost an hour had passed.
He looked around casually, and found that after crossing the road, the car merged directly to the side road on the far right, and then stopped in front of a building with a familiar name that couldn't be more familiar.
"...Hua Lun Entertainment?" Ji Yexi looked in shock at the big signboard on the towering skyscraper, and asked in disbelief:
"The investor of this movie turned out to be Warren?"
The author has something to say: See you tomorrow!
81. Want to be scumbag Day 81
"Warren is indeed the investor behind it." Zuo Yan explained to Ji Yexi.
Ji Yexi nodded. At first, he thought it was a coincidence, but after thinking about it, he thought it was nothing. Hua Lun is in charge of more than 70.00% of the resources in the film and television industry, and it is a regular company. Everyone who invests and sponsors will think of it first.
And Warren has a dedicated market research and evaluation department, and once it feels that a certain play is promising and has commercial value, it will invest.
If director Zuo can watch a play, Hua Lun can also watch it.
It is quite normal for Warren to be the main investor.
After the car stopped, the group got out of the car and entered the company lobby.
Before coming here, the producer had already talked with Warren's investment manager on the phone, and the three of them registered at the front desk, and quickly took the elevator upstairs.
"Our Mr. Liu is having a meeting upstairs, and ordered the three of you to wait here for a while, and he will be back in a while."
The tall and slender secretary led them into a small conference room and brought three cups of tea.
The three of them sat down naturally, and when the others left, the producer scratched his sparse hair again, and muttered in a low voice: "It's strange... It's okay to call just now, why are you in a meeting now?"
But he didn't take it too seriously. With such a big company in operation, all departments have to coordinate, so it's normal to go to a meeting.
Simply idle is also idle, the producer saw that Zuo Yan had a happy chat with Ji Yexi all the way, and his complexion improved a lot, so he couldn't help but "bring back the old things" and said: "Everyone has calmed down now, old Zuo , I have to tell you a few words."
Zuo Yan looked at the producer, the expression on his face became tense again, and he just looked at the producer blankly.
"...You see, I just want to ask, why are you so angry? I have been in this business for so many years, and it's not the first time we have cooperated. You don't know who I am? Then someone I came to the door with funds, and said that I want to inject capital, can I reject it all at once? Let Mr. Liu and the others know what to do?"
Director Zuo snorted coldly, and said, "You also said that this is not the first time we have worked together. You know how much I attach importance to the role of Xu Zhong. I am not opposed to bringing money into the group, but I want me to take the role of Xu Zhong." Get out, it's impossible."
Although Zuo Yan was young, his temper was very twisted.
Seeing that he couldn't agree with him on this matter, Producer He turned his head and explained to Ji Yexi again.
"That Xiao Ji... Don't blame brother, brother is not targeting you, I'm just doing things step by step, you know."
Producer He, who had seen in the car that he couldn't offend the young man, simply threw the blame on the investor.
He also said: "I'm also doing things according to the procedure. Don't worry about that. You are so talented. You are not only appreciated by Director Zuo, but also by Duan Yingdi. When Mr. Liu comes, I have to tell him Said, I believe Mr. Liu's vision will also keep you."
Ji Yexi smiled at the producer. He said earlier that he never blamed the producer.
But the retreat in his heart did not disappear along the way.
No matter how good the role is, if it doesn't belong to you, you should let it go, and you can't force it.
The reason why Ji Yexi followed all the way here, and is still here now, is entirely because of Director Zuo.
He didn't know what kind of virtue and ability he was, and he had already met two good directors in this world.
It can be seen that Director Zuo really doesn't want to change roles.
Although it is not out of selfishness to protect yourself, but if you insist on not changing roles, it is a change of direction to admit your ability!
Ji Yexi was already very satisfied.
Therefore, under the current situation, as long as Director Zuo still insists on not changing roles, he will not withdraw at this time.
As for what the end result will be...
wait.
Can only wait.
Ji Yexi thought.
The time ticked by every second, and Director Zuo kept a cold face during the waiting process.
He shoots a lot of funny movies like this, and it usually looks like a funny and eccentric character who doesn't smile or speak, which is quite scary.
But the producer looked like a chatterbox again, he started asking Ji Yexi to ask questions after he was bored by Director Zuo.
Ask him which company he is from, what he did before, and why he is so familiar with Duan Yingdi.
Ji Yexi didn't intend to hide anything, except for the details of his relationship with Duan Yingdi, he answered all the other questions.
Internet celebrity, the company that signed the contract is Chenyue, but she is not from an idol, has never participated in an audition event, and is not a traffic star, she is just affiliated there.
……
These labels fell into Producer He's ears one by one, and they became a very powerful blockbuster, which made his head hurt.
- sure, sure!
This small season must have a huge background! !
Although Producer He doesn't know much about idols, he also knows that Chenyue is the main entertainment company.
… No matter what type of company it is, can it allow artists to live broadcast every day to become Internet celebrities, not to participate in variety shows and not accept commercials?
Ji Yexi himself said that he had no background, but he didn't even believe it!
What does it mean that a mountain is higher than a mountain? Producer He has seen it today.
Even he has some contacts in the upper class, but he has never heard of any prominent lintel surnamed Ji...
But if it is said that he is a small family, he can ask Chen Yue to give him the green light all the way...
While thinking about it, Producer He looked at Ji Yexi's upright and handsome face, and suddenly felt... Maybe he is very familiar with Chen Yue's boss.
Hey, a little-known little traffic can make the big boss spend 3000 million on filming for him. In terms of appearance and temperament, Xiao Ji is indeed above the young man surnamed Jian just now.
He faintly felt that he had solved the case, but Producer He's attitude towards Ji Yexi was still amiable.
He has been able to make it this far in this industry because he is smooth enough, treats everyone equally, and does not look at people with colored glasses.
Today you feel that you are just a small celebrity who is being adopted, who knows if it will turn around and become popular?
Producer He has met too many people, and he just feels that anything is possible.
Besides, this little season looks different from others.
...there is no such place!
It really doesn't look like she was simply being taken care of by someone...
The three of them waited in the reception room for a while, and Mr. Liu, who was said to be in a meeting, finally opened the door and walked in.
"Sorry for keeping you all waiting."
Manager Liu looks to be in his 40s, with a slightly fat body. When he is not smiling, his face is full of flesh, and he looks a bit fierce.
He still had a few books in his hand, shook hands with Producer He and Director Zuo Yan one by one, and then sat next to the sofa on one side, saying: "The meeting was just announced shortly, and there are too many things to be busy at the beginning of the year. Feel sorry."
Producer He quickly said a few words of his own, and the two sides exchanged a few words of politeness. Manager Liu looked very busy, so he went straight to the topic: "What did you mean by what you said on the phone just now, Lao He? Do you want to talk to me again?" Say it."
Producer He told him what happened today.
Manager Liu opened up the materials in his hand, which were probably some pre-budget and materials of the crew of "Also", after a glance, he said: "If someone is really willing to inject 3000 million yuan and not pay dividends, then of course we have to accept it." .”
As soon as Mr. Liu said this, Producer He who was opposite immediately beamed at Zuo Yan.
That means—you see what I said, I just said, everyone has to agree to this matter!
Zuo Yan frowned deeply, and said, "Liu is always like this. Although the other party doesn't ask for dividends, we can't move the role he wants to install."
"Oh?" Mr. Liu turned his gaze to Zuo Yan, "What role is he going to play? Could it be the leading role?!"
Zuo Yan shook his head and said, "No, it's a very important supporting role in the movie."
"Oh..." Upon hearing that it was a supporting role, Mr. Liu's attitude obviously relaxed a lot.
He has too many projects in his hands, and he can't remember all the plans, but he is obviously experienced. When he glanced at the information just now, he already knew that Duan Yingdi is the protagonist of this film.
As long as Duan Yiwei is not replaced.
With Duan Yingdi's reputation, there is no shortage of box office.
Besides, this drama itself is not a big production, and the initial investment is not much. Now there are local tyrants who want to send them 3000 million.
So he's clearly not very interested in that supporting role.
Zuo Yan saw Mr. Liu's indifference. Although he didn't want to ask for help, but for his own work, he still explained in a low-key way: "But if it is replaced by traffic who can't act... this movie will be ruined!"
"Oh?"
Director Zuo said that he was still a very famous director, so Mr. Liu opened the file again to save face, and asked him: "The role the other party is going to play is..."
Zuo Yan reported Xu Zhong's name, and Mr. Liu also read the relevant introduction at a glance.
Although it was extremely perfunctory, he still watched it, and it was considered as a way to save Director Zuo's face. Mr. Liu then casually said: "It's just a supporting role. Although there are many roles in the show, it's just a teenager, right? Who in the audience would care about such a person's acting skills? Besides, it’s not about you, Xiao Zuo, I know your ability, what kind of actor can be trained|taught badly by you?... I don’t need to discuss this matter at all.”
Zuo Yan has a straight temper, and when the other party said that he couldn't discuss it, he was blunt, and said directly: "Tune | I can't teach. An actor without a few years of experience can't play Xu Zhong's changes."
Then he pointed at Ji Yexi again, and said anxiously: "It's him, Mr. Liu, take a look, this is the treasure I found after a lot of selection! If anyone can do it, I've been working on it since years ago." Have you found it now? This role was only finalized when he came for an interview yesterday! This drama can't do without Xiao Ji."
Only then did Mr. Liu turn his attention to Ji Yexi.
In fact, he saw Ji Yexi as soon as he entered the door. It was hard not to notice the young man's appearance immediately.
Now that director Zuo praised him like this, he couldn't help being a little interested.
But apart from being subconsciously curious about the youth, his attitude has not been shaken.
To put it bluntly, he doesn't care about the quality of the movie at all, all he wants to see is the return on investment of the movie, that string of numbers.
Mr. Liu closed the file again, feeling impatient in his heart.
It is Zuo Yan's business, not his business, that Zuo Yan should consider for his own works and reputation.
So Mr. Liu said: "Director Zuo's vision is naturally trustworthy. But if you use him, can you guarantee that this movie will become a masterpiece? Can the real box office exceed 20 billion?"
Director Left: "..."
Although the domestic entertainment industry is developing rapidly, and more and more people are willing to spend money to watch movies, it is still difficult to achieve a real box office of over 20 billion.
What's more, his film is not a blockbuster with strong visual effects.
Even Director Zuo didn't dare to say such big words.
Mr. Liu said again: "Since one side is unknown, the other side is real cash, Xiao Zuo, think about it carefully, this is not up to me alone, I want to do it for the benefit of the company. considerate."
In the end, Mr. Liu had already put on an extremely embarrassing tone.
At this point, Zuo Yan laughed dryly and tried to say tactfully: "Mr. Liu, I didn't like what I said. The reason why Warren has come to this day and occupied such a large domestic market is because your company is interested in works. Instead of money, you are like this now..."
"What's wrong with me now?" Mr. Liu's face immediately lost the smile. He is much older than Zuo Yan, and he never expected that the director Zuo would dare to criticize him, "Do I need you for my job?" Come to teach? Xiao Zuo, you are just toasting and not eating or drinking fine wine!"
Zuo Yan couldn't bear this kind of dirty thing, so he held back his anger.
He is straightforward and stubborn, otherwise he would not have made so many films with his talent to achieve what he is now.
Seeing that Mr. Liu didn't respect the works at all, he couldn't bear it anymore. Just when he was about to explode, the door of the small reception room was knocked open suddenly.
It was the secretary who entertained them at the beginning, and now she was standing outside, calling them Mr. Liu: "Mr. Liu, please come out first, that..."
She made a gesture, and Mr. Liu understood immediately. He stood up and walked out with an attitude that he didn't want to get entangled with Zuo Yan.
"I'm so pissed off, I'm so pissed off! Unexpectedly, Hua Lun has become like this now, mercenary... It's simply hateful!" Zuo Yan was still scolding in the office, and Ji Yexi could only persuade him in a low voice.
Who wants Director Zuo to be silent again after scolding.
Sitting there silently, expressionless.
Producer He on the other side didn't make trouble at the moment, although he did guess Mr. Liu's idea perfectly.
He sighed and said to Zuo Yan: "You say you, why do you offend him? If you leave the green hills, you won't be afraid of no firewood. Now it's all over, it's all over! People with bare feet are not afraid of you wearing shoes, just in case People want to punish you, add fuel and say that you have a bad temper, do you still want to make good movies in the future?"
"Don't forget how you got to where you are today." The producer pushed his glasses, "For your ideals, just bear with it this time, okay? You are my brother! I beg you, wait a minute Don't talk when Mr. Liu comes back, I'll tell him something nice."
Producer He talked a lot, but Director Zuo only replied one sentence.
This time it was very quiet.
"It's because of constant compromise that I got to where I am today." Zuo Yan's eyes were a little red, and he even laughed at himself: "I, Zuo Yan, got to where I am today, all because of compromising with you capital."
Producer He: "..."
"Where is this my movie? You just find a monkey to act in it. As long as someone is willing to invest, it can be released."
"You..." Producer He didn't know what to say, and Ji Yexi could only lower his eyes, not knowing how to comfort her.
He used to think that the director was yelling around on the set, which was awesome.
Now that I think about it, I was rarely able to receive many plays before, so naturally I didn't have any dealings with the director.
It's a frog in a well.
It turns out that being a director is not comfortable.
But he actually understood Director Zuo's feeling very well at the moment.
The feeling that the world is different from what he thought, but he is completely powerless...
Ji Yexi blinked, hey, at a time like this, maybe he just persuaded himself to be more open-minded, not to care about anything, and happily do something he likes every day.
Or, like Director Zuo, facing the iron fist of reality head-on, embarrassed and injured.
Then it loops infinitely, without end.
He is too familiar with both methods.
Maybe it's because he's an optimist at heart, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with it later.
It's just that seeing such a Zuo guide always makes him feel sympathetic, and he feels uncomfortable.
Just as the room fell into silence again, Mr. Liu opened the door and came back.
When he came back this time, his attitude was very different from before he went out.
Looking around the room, Mr. Liu cleared his throat and said, "What, I just discussed this matter with the higher-ups, and we all agree that what you said, Xiao Zuo, is reasonable."
Three people in the room: "...?"
What?
Mr. Liu: "The reason why Warren has come to this day is precisely because the most important thing is the work."
"..."
"That's it, Lao He, you must use Xiao Ji." Mr. Liu said here, looking at Ji Yexi's eyes has become startled and fearful, he almost trembled and said: "Leader Zuo's eyes we It's still trustworthy... In short, you must continue to act in this movie Xiao Ji!"
The author has something to say: Producer: It doesn't seem like you were simply being taken care of by someone... What the hell are you doing!
Brother Xi: Of course not alone.Let's find out.
82. Want to be scumbag Day 82
"Xiao Ji?"
The three people in the room looked at each other.
It's not buddy... Your attitude has changed... Subtle!
He didn't look at people very seriously before, but now he has become Xiao Ji?
"Ah, no." Mr. Liu soon realized that something was wrong. Xiao Ji was not something he could call, so he quickly changed his words: "Mr. Ji! You see, I was really excited just now, Mr. Ji, please don't be offended."
The other two: "..."
Ji Yexi: "..."
Ji Yexi slammed his mouth, not understanding why the other party was so excited.
At this moment, the "tempered" Zuo Yan asked straightforwardly: "Mr. Liu, what did you mean just now...?"
"Hey, I still don't understand what I mean?" Mr. Liu said directly to Producer He: "It's better to do as we negotiated before."
The attitude of the other party changed too quickly. Producer He was afraid that he might have misunderstood, so he asked again: "Then 3000 million..."
"What is 3000 million, we have such an excellent team, so 3000 million can insert someone in?" Mr. Liu said: "Don't say 3000 million, even [-] million, don't even think about ruining a movie!"
Producer He: "..."
Director Left: "..."
Ji Yexi: "..."
The three people on the opposite side were already confused by Mr. Liu's impassioned declaration, but Mr. Liu still didn't think there was anything wrong, and still said: "After you go back, just shoot, if you don't have enough funds, come to me and tell me. Anyway, this movie of yours is ours. This year, Hua Lun focuses on the main event of capital injection and training, if you need anything, just ask, don't be polite!"
He & Zuo & Ji: "..."
Wait, when did they become Warren's most important film of the year?
Although Warren has always said that he has always been straightforward and generous in funding, as long as he can persuade Warren to inject capital, generally speaking, there is no need to go out to solicit other sponsorships.
But Warren doesn't know how many capital injections of this level will be made every year, so they won't become favorites, right?
The three of them left Warren's mansion in a daze.
Originally, Mr. Liu wanted to keep them to sit for a while and drink some tea.
Later, Director Zuo said he was going back to sign a contract with Xiao Ji, and Mr. Liu let him go.
Having said that, they took the elevator all the way to the door of the company, and they were willing to go back after seeing the three people getting on the car with their own eyes...
Back in the car, Producer He still couldn't believe it: "I'm not dreaming, am I?"
"...Is there anything in the dream?"
Director Left: "..."
Of course Zuo Yan also felt wrong.
Originally, he was going to use his trump card to withdraw from the filming of this movie, but he was killed, but he didn't expect...
But in any case, the matter has been resolved smoothly. As he said, the top priority now is to go back and sign the contract to avoid another accident.
Only Ji Yexi looked out the window, Junxiu frowned slightly, thinking about something.
The sun came in from the car window, and it was shining on his plump and handsome face. His fair skin was so shiny that it was almost transparent, and the young man looked like an angel.
Inside the Hualun Building, Mr. Liu, who had sent off Ji Yexi and his party, let out a sigh of relief. When he turned around, he saw Zhao Zong coming out of the corner.
"Xiao Zhao!... Oh, hey, Special Assistant Zhao, why are you still here?" Mr. Liu went up to meet him, and whispered in front of him, "I have sent them away as you ordered."
Although Mr. Liu is an old man of the Cheng Group, he has a high position and is many years older than Zhao Zong, but Zhao Zong is a celebrity in front of Mr. Cheng, with strong professional ability. People in the company saw him Be warm to him.
Zhao Zong nodded and said, "Mr. Cheng is worried, he wants me to come down and take a look."
Mr. Liu choked, "Mr. Cheng..."
Mr. Liu was still a little dazed when he was suddenly called out just now and asked him to give the green light to the crew all the way.
Later, he asked a few more questions, and Zhao Tezhu made a special point, but he only said that he must keep the young man surnamed Ji inside no matter what, and he must not be wronged.
Liu is always such a shrewd person, he immediately knew that the young man surnamed Ji had a backer.
But now seeing that Mr. Cheng even personally sent Zhao Zong down to check... He was startled, recalling the temperament and appearance of the young man just now, he couldn't help but rejoice that he didn't offend that young man in the first place.
Curious in my heart, I couldn't help but want to take a closer look.
Mr. Liu asked secretly: "Zhao Tezhu, you said that just now...he and Mr. Cheng..."
Zhao Zong didn't hide it either: "You were transferred by Mr. Cheng from another branch. You may not know that you were not in Hualun before. That is Young Master Ji, who is Mr. Cheng's...very close friend."
"Hey!" Mr. Liu acted surprised, his eyes widened, "That... that one has such a relationship with Mr. Cheng, why did you still audition yourself to be a supporting role?!"
Zhao Zong was also very helpless when asked about this.
He looked up at the sky, Mr. Cheng wanted to arrange a better role for Ji Shao.
Then Young Master Ji must agree.
But this can't be said, Zhao Zong can only say inscrutablely: "Who makes Ji Shao like it. If Ji Shao likes it, Mr. Cheng likes it."
President Liu: "..."
Mr. Liu was completely dumbfounded by this sentence.
Zhao Zong said again: "Oh, there is one more thing, Mr. Cheng asked you to go to his office in the afternoon when you have nothing to do."
"Ah?!" Mr. Liu immediately became nervous.
Mr. Cheng usually doesn't summon people in person. If he really finds someone to talk face to face, then it's a big deal.
Thinking about what happened just now... He wondered if Mr. Cheng was dissatisfied with the way he did things?
"No, don't be nervous." Zhao Zong said while motioning him to go back.
Seeing that this Mr. Liu is still clever and can tell a little bit, he added a few more words: "Mr. Liu, your business acumen is naturally beyond doubt, and everyone is sure of it. But you want to I know, Mr. Cheng loves the art of making movies more than anyone else."
President Liu: "...Yes."
"Hua Lun's investment can't just look at the rate of return on the money." Zhao Zong said, "I guess this is what Mr. Cheng wants to tell you."
"..."
After a farce ended, Ji Yexi finally got the role of Xu Zhong.
"Good things take time." Brother Xi comforted him when he heard that there were so many twists and turns in Xiao Qingning.
"That's what it says..." Ji Yexi stood in front of the window, crossing his arms and looking out of the window.
The window opposite was still pitch black, as still as a black pool of water.
It's been a long time since anyone came back to live there.
Xiao Qingning seemed to have thought of something, but finally changed his voice and said, "...no matter what happens, as long as this character is still Brother Xi's in the end, it means that you are destined for this character."
"Ok?"
Ji Yexi raised his eyebrows with interest, but he had never looked at problems in this way before.
Although the matter was resolved peacefully, after a turn, it looked as if nothing had happened in the end.
But everything that happened will leave traces in people's hearts.
On the way back, Ji Yexi always felt uncomfortable in his heart, but after hearing what Xiao Qingning said, he suddenly became enlightened.
——No matter what happened in the middle, in the end, after going around in circles, this role still fell on me.
He is just a small character, and Ji Yexi doesn't think he can figure out what God's will is. Now that he has this character, he should cherish it and be done.
There is no need to think about other things.
As long as Xu Zhong can be interpreted well, it is the best explanation to everyone, including himself.
Later, Ji Yexi went to fix her makeup, and continued to ponder the script at home when she had nothing to do.
After half a month, Duan Yiwei came back from other announcements, all the actors were in place, and the filming officially started.
Someone wanted to buy the role of Xu Zhong for 3000 million because it didn't work out in the end and was rejected on the same day, so it didn't cause any disturbance.
Many people simply don't know about it.
But after returning, Duan Yingdi got the news from nowhere, and still knew about the situation.
Film Emperor Duan originally wanted to comfort Ji Yexi with a few words, but he also climbed up step by step. Everyone has encountered this kind of thing when they were young, and the key is self-regulation.
Unexpectedly, Ji Yexi had already finished his self-guided strategy, and when we met again, he was still the young man who was handsome and delicate on the outside, but careless in his behavior.
Duan Yiwei couldn't help but praised: "Okay, strength and ability are one aspect, and a good psychological quality is more important. Who knows who will have the last laugh until the end."
Director Zuo also came up to praise.
Director Zuo was still an approachable big brother when he was not excited. He had discussed the script with Ji Yexi before, and found that Ji Yexi's understanding of the characters was far beyond his expectations. He couldn't help but have another meal in front of Duan Yingdi Blow hard.
"Then take a look." Duan Yiwei looked at Ji Yexi with admiring eyes, couldn't help stretching out five fingers of one hand, and said, "I have never recommended more than this number in my life, so you should know that." It's the weight of Xiaoji."
"It's a good thing I wanted to keep Xiao Ji when I died before." Director Zuo proudly puffed out his chest at this point, as if he needed to be praised too.
……
Rao Ji Yexi is a thick-skinned person, and he is almost ashamed to be surrounded by them.
Fortunately, this is in the director's studio, there are no outsiders, otherwise it will probably attract a lot of attention.
Not much to say, after the opening ceremony, the filming officially started.
In the past few days, we focused on filming Duan Actor's scenes, not only because he has the most roles, but also because he is a seasoned actor, and his acting skills are outstanding. He can be the first to enter the role, and his private scenes are the best.
During this period of free time, other people can talk to the lines together or listen to the director's lectures. When there is no task, they can either rest in the hotel, or come to the crew to watch Duan Yingdi's filming.
Ji Yexi chose the latter. He prepared a ponytail and squatted next to the left director every day, watching Duan Yiwei's acting and listening to the director's evaluation of him.
Others feel that the wind and sun are very hard, but he enjoys it quite a lot.
During the days of squatting in the crew, his heart is peaceful, as if this is the life that should really belong to him.
And because of the relationship between actor Duan and director Zuo's preference, Ji Yexi's life in the crew was quite good. When the staff saw him, they either called him Xiao Ji or Brother Ji, not to mention how affectionate they were.
This treatment is different from when I was in the crew before, Ji Yexi is already very satisfied.
He is really happy.
The only thing that is not ideal is that he leaves early and returns late, and has signed a non-disclosure agreement not to disclose his work on the set, so it is almost impossible to broadcast live on Slow Hands.
Even uploading a video every day is mostly pre-recorded inventory.
In addition, this time Xiao Qingning also came to the crew as his assistant.
I said I was learning something, but in fact I did a lot of groceries after being busy. The two of them didn't have time to run the slow-handed business. The business there could only temporarily let it go downhill. This is also impossible.
But there is no need to be persuaded in this regard, Ji Yexi can figure it out on his own.
Just as he didn't want to give up being an anchor just because he was a star, he sacrificed his career in the entertainment industry to become an anchor. This is his approach and choice.
So now that I have accepted the job of filming, I should give up being an anchor for the sake of filming.
This is also the choice he should implement.
It can't be said that one side was sacrificed for the other side, anyway, it's what he likes to do, and every day has not been let down and wasted.
Ji Yexi didn't care even if there was a serious drop of fans, and he still wandered around the set with a pony strap every day.
Duan Yingdi and Ms. Pang Lanxin, who played the heroine, played on the same stage for a few days, and finally it was Ji Yexi's turn to appear.
The order of filming is not set according to the timeline in the movie. Ji Yexi's first scene is Xu Zhong's work as an undercover agent in an MLM organization after graduating from high school.
In the first scene, Xu Zhong deliberately wandered around the train station for a few days, pretending to be a student who had graduated from high school and failed to enter the university and ran away to find a job, deliberately attracting the attention of the MLM organization.
In order to make the movie look realistic and make the audience empathize with him, Ji Yexi is now an image of a student who has never seen the world. He even has a rough image with bangs and long sideburns in his hairstyle.
Looks like it hasn't been cut in a long time.
In fact, Ji Yexi has been notified since signing the contract, and he never cut it again.
In addition, just after the new year, he didn't cut his hair too much during the new year, and the current hairstyle is his real look.
None have been polished by the stylist.
Because Director Zuo said that his face is too pretty, once it is modified, it will look too delicate, so he won't let the stylist do it.
But even so, Ji Yexi, who is carrying a dilapidated schoolbag and wearing unpretentious street clothes, can stand out just by standing there, eye-catching enough.
Director Zuo looked at his image and thought it was better to give it a try first, so he called out.
In a crowded train station, a young man with a ticket in his hand stood helplessly in front of a fast food restaurant not far from the exit, looking up at the recruitment information on it.
"Look." The assistant director said from the side: "I just said that Xiao Ji is too delicate, this doesn't look like..."
Before he finished speaking, Director Zuo made a gesture to silence him.
The camera zoomed in to take a close-up shot of his face. The young man, who was radiant just now with flying brows and eyes, didn't know how he did it. His facial features suddenly looked very ordinary.
Not as distinctive as before.
In other words, at first glance at this face, you will only feel that he is still childish, but you will no longer be amazed by his outstanding appearance.
"hiss……"
This effect...
The assistant director felt strange and couldn't help but sit up straight.
83. Want to be scumbag Day 83
Film is an art.
But sometimes you meet actors who really know how to act, and watching them act is also an art.
Ji Yexi's scenes were filmed interspersed with other actors' scenes. Even so, since he himself basically had a single pass, the scenes related to being an undercover agent were filmed in less than two days.
Within two days, including the assistant director, all the big names with experience in related fields looked at Ji Yexi with admiration.
Some people have ordinary looks, but when the plot requires it, they can make themselves look extraordinary. This is their foundation.
Some people's looks are not ordinary, but they can restrain their sharpness when necessary and fully integrate their temperament into the role. This is also a foundation.
At the beginning, he didn't support Ji Yexi as Xu Zhong's assistant director. He changed his mind and started to praise Ji Yexi.
Needless to say, Teacher Duan and Director Zuo, even Ms. Pang Lanxin Pang, who did not know Ji Yexi before, praised Ji Yexi very much.
Ms. Pang and Duan Yingdi are in the same age group. When they were young, they were popular for a while with a movie, but they returned to the family and did not come out to film for many years.
So so far, I haven't won any sensational awards.
But after her comeback, she soon participated in a movie and a TV series, and then became popular.
Many young people today don't know what she once acted in,
For 3000 million to make such a fuss...
I didn't catch anything at all, and offended the two of them in one breath.
……
Fortunately, I heard that Ji Yexi only met Mr. Duan in the TV drama crew. Mr. Duan recommended him to audition, but he didn't directly arrange for him to join the group, so the producer's heart eased a little.
But the master who can take out 4000 million in one breath...
He still couldn't help but look back at Ji Yexi, and saw that the young man was talking to Zuo Yan, with a white face and red lips, looking very gratifying in the oppressive carriage.
...For some reason, the producer suddenly regretted it.
I regret why I agreed there just now.
If I had known it earlier, I would have rejected it directly.
He had a faint feeling...he couldn't afford to provoke this young man.
No one can mess with it!
Ji Yexi was chatting with Director Zuo in the car and forgot the time for a while, and when the car drove all the way, when he finally got to the place, he realized that almost an hour had passed.
He looked around casually, and found that after crossing the road, the car merged directly to the side road on the far right, and then stopped in front of a building with a familiar name that couldn't be more familiar.
"...Hua Lun Entertainment?" Ji Yexi looked in shock at the big signboard on the towering skyscraper, and asked in disbelief:
"The investor of this movie turned out to be Warren?"
The author has something to say: See you tomorrow!
81. Want to be scumbag Day 81
"Warren is indeed the investor behind it." Zuo Yan explained to Ji Yexi.
Ji Yexi nodded. At first, he thought it was a coincidence, but after thinking about it, he thought it was nothing. Hua Lun is in charge of more than 70.00% of the resources in the film and television industry, and it is a regular company. Everyone who invests and sponsors will think of it first.
And Warren has a dedicated market research and evaluation department, and once it feels that a certain play is promising and has commercial value, it will invest.
If director Zuo can watch a play, Hua Lun can also watch it.
It is quite normal for Warren to be the main investor.
After the car stopped, the group got out of the car and entered the company lobby.
Before coming here, the producer had already talked with Warren's investment manager on the phone, and the three of them registered at the front desk, and quickly took the elevator upstairs.
"Our Mr. Liu is having a meeting upstairs, and ordered the three of you to wait here for a while, and he will be back in a while."
The tall and slender secretary led them into a small conference room and brought three cups of tea.
The three of them sat down naturally, and when the others left, the producer scratched his sparse hair again, and muttered in a low voice: "It's strange... It's okay to call just now, why are you in a meeting now?"
But he didn't take it too seriously. With such a big company in operation, all departments have to coordinate, so it's normal to go to a meeting.
Simply idle is also idle, the producer saw that Zuo Yan had a happy chat with Ji Yexi all the way, and his complexion improved a lot, so he couldn't help but "bring back the old things" and said: "Everyone has calmed down now, old Zuo , I have to tell you a few words."
Zuo Yan looked at the producer, the expression on his face became tense again, and he just looked at the producer blankly.
"...You see, I just want to ask, why are you so angry? I have been in this business for so many years, and it's not the first time we have cooperated. You don't know who I am? Then someone I came to the door with funds, and said that I want to inject capital, can I reject it all at once? Let Mr. Liu and the others know what to do?"
Director Zuo snorted coldly, and said, "You also said that this is not the first time we have worked together. You know how much I attach importance to the role of Xu Zhong. I am not opposed to bringing money into the group, but I want me to take the role of Xu Zhong." Get out, it's impossible."
Although Zuo Yan was young, his temper was very twisted.
Seeing that he couldn't agree with him on this matter, Producer He turned his head and explained to Ji Yexi again.
"That Xiao Ji... Don't blame brother, brother is not targeting you, I'm just doing things step by step, you know."
Producer He, who had seen in the car that he couldn't offend the young man, simply threw the blame on the investor.
He also said: "I'm also doing things according to the procedure. Don't worry about that. You are so talented. You are not only appreciated by Director Zuo, but also by Duan Yingdi. When Mr. Liu comes, I have to tell him Said, I believe Mr. Liu's vision will also keep you."
Ji Yexi smiled at the producer. He said earlier that he never blamed the producer.
But the retreat in his heart did not disappear along the way.
No matter how good the role is, if it doesn't belong to you, you should let it go, and you can't force it.
The reason why Ji Yexi followed all the way here, and is still here now, is entirely because of Director Zuo.
He didn't know what kind of virtue and ability he was, and he had already met two good directors in this world.
It can be seen that Director Zuo really doesn't want to change roles.
Although it is not out of selfishness to protect yourself, but if you insist on not changing roles, it is a change of direction to admit your ability!
Ji Yexi was already very satisfied.
Therefore, under the current situation, as long as Director Zuo still insists on not changing roles, he will not withdraw at this time.
As for what the end result will be...
wait.
Can only wait.
Ji Yexi thought.
The time ticked by every second, and Director Zuo kept a cold face during the waiting process.
He shoots a lot of funny movies like this, and it usually looks like a funny and eccentric character who doesn't smile or speak, which is quite scary.
But the producer looked like a chatterbox again, he started asking Ji Yexi to ask questions after he was bored by Director Zuo.
Ask him which company he is from, what he did before, and why he is so familiar with Duan Yingdi.
Ji Yexi didn't intend to hide anything, except for the details of his relationship with Duan Yingdi, he answered all the other questions.
Internet celebrity, the company that signed the contract is Chenyue, but she is not from an idol, has never participated in an audition event, and is not a traffic star, she is just affiliated there.
……
These labels fell into Producer He's ears one by one, and they became a very powerful blockbuster, which made his head hurt.
- sure, sure!
This small season must have a huge background! !
Although Producer He doesn't know much about idols, he also knows that Chenyue is the main entertainment company.
… No matter what type of company it is, can it allow artists to live broadcast every day to become Internet celebrities, not to participate in variety shows and not accept commercials?
Ji Yexi himself said that he had no background, but he didn't even believe it!
What does it mean that a mountain is higher than a mountain? Producer He has seen it today.
Even he has some contacts in the upper class, but he has never heard of any prominent lintel surnamed Ji...
But if it is said that he is a small family, he can ask Chen Yue to give him the green light all the way...
While thinking about it, Producer He looked at Ji Yexi's upright and handsome face, and suddenly felt... Maybe he is very familiar with Chen Yue's boss.
Hey, a little-known little traffic can make the big boss spend 3000 million on filming for him. In terms of appearance and temperament, Xiao Ji is indeed above the young man surnamed Jian just now.
He faintly felt that he had solved the case, but Producer He's attitude towards Ji Yexi was still amiable.
He has been able to make it this far in this industry because he is smooth enough, treats everyone equally, and does not look at people with colored glasses.
Today you feel that you are just a small celebrity who is being adopted, who knows if it will turn around and become popular?
Producer He has met too many people, and he just feels that anything is possible.
Besides, this little season looks different from others.
...there is no such place!
It really doesn't look like she was simply being taken care of by someone...
The three of them waited in the reception room for a while, and Mr. Liu, who was said to be in a meeting, finally opened the door and walked in.
"Sorry for keeping you all waiting."
Manager Liu looks to be in his 40s, with a slightly fat body. When he is not smiling, his face is full of flesh, and he looks a bit fierce.
He still had a few books in his hand, shook hands with Producer He and Director Zuo Yan one by one, and then sat next to the sofa on one side, saying: "The meeting was just announced shortly, and there are too many things to be busy at the beginning of the year. Feel sorry."
Producer He quickly said a few words of his own, and the two sides exchanged a few words of politeness. Manager Liu looked very busy, so he went straight to the topic: "What did you mean by what you said on the phone just now, Lao He? Do you want to talk to me again?" Say it."
Producer He told him what happened today.
Manager Liu opened up the materials in his hand, which were probably some pre-budget and materials of the crew of "Also", after a glance, he said: "If someone is really willing to inject 3000 million yuan and not pay dividends, then of course we have to accept it." .”
As soon as Mr. Liu said this, Producer He who was opposite immediately beamed at Zuo Yan.
That means—you see what I said, I just said, everyone has to agree to this matter!
Zuo Yan frowned deeply, and said, "Liu is always like this. Although the other party doesn't ask for dividends, we can't move the role he wants to install."
"Oh?" Mr. Liu turned his gaze to Zuo Yan, "What role is he going to play? Could it be the leading role?!"
Zuo Yan shook his head and said, "No, it's a very important supporting role in the movie."
"Oh..." Upon hearing that it was a supporting role, Mr. Liu's attitude obviously relaxed a lot.
He has too many projects in his hands, and he can't remember all the plans, but he is obviously experienced. When he glanced at the information just now, he already knew that Duan Yingdi is the protagonist of this film.
As long as Duan Yiwei is not replaced.
With Duan Yingdi's reputation, there is no shortage of box office.
Besides, this drama itself is not a big production, and the initial investment is not much. Now there are local tyrants who want to send them 3000 million.
So he's clearly not very interested in that supporting role.
Zuo Yan saw Mr. Liu's indifference. Although he didn't want to ask for help, but for his own work, he still explained in a low-key way: "But if it is replaced by traffic who can't act... this movie will be ruined!"
"Oh?"
Director Zuo said that he was still a very famous director, so Mr. Liu opened the file again to save face, and asked him: "The role the other party is going to play is..."
Zuo Yan reported Xu Zhong's name, and Mr. Liu also read the relevant introduction at a glance.
Although it was extremely perfunctory, he still watched it, and it was considered as a way to save Director Zuo's face. Mr. Liu then casually said: "It's just a supporting role. Although there are many roles in the show, it's just a teenager, right? Who in the audience would care about such a person's acting skills? Besides, it’s not about you, Xiao Zuo, I know your ability, what kind of actor can be trained|taught badly by you?... I don’t need to discuss this matter at all.”
Zuo Yan has a straight temper, and when the other party said that he couldn't discuss it, he was blunt, and said directly: "Tune | I can't teach. An actor without a few years of experience can't play Xu Zhong's changes."
Then he pointed at Ji Yexi again, and said anxiously: "It's him, Mr. Liu, take a look, this is the treasure I found after a lot of selection! If anyone can do it, I've been working on it since years ago." Have you found it now? This role was only finalized when he came for an interview yesterday! This drama can't do without Xiao Ji."
Only then did Mr. Liu turn his attention to Ji Yexi.
In fact, he saw Ji Yexi as soon as he entered the door. It was hard not to notice the young man's appearance immediately.
Now that director Zuo praised him like this, he couldn't help being a little interested.
But apart from being subconsciously curious about the youth, his attitude has not been shaken.
To put it bluntly, he doesn't care about the quality of the movie at all, all he wants to see is the return on investment of the movie, that string of numbers.
Mr. Liu closed the file again, feeling impatient in his heart.
It is Zuo Yan's business, not his business, that Zuo Yan should consider for his own works and reputation.
So Mr. Liu said: "Director Zuo's vision is naturally trustworthy. But if you use him, can you guarantee that this movie will become a masterpiece? Can the real box office exceed 20 billion?"
Director Left: "..."
Although the domestic entertainment industry is developing rapidly, and more and more people are willing to spend money to watch movies, it is still difficult to achieve a real box office of over 20 billion.
What's more, his film is not a blockbuster with strong visual effects.
Even Director Zuo didn't dare to say such big words.
Mr. Liu said again: "Since one side is unknown, the other side is real cash, Xiao Zuo, think about it carefully, this is not up to me alone, I want to do it for the benefit of the company. considerate."
In the end, Mr. Liu had already put on an extremely embarrassing tone.
At this point, Zuo Yan laughed dryly and tried to say tactfully: "Mr. Liu, I didn't like what I said. The reason why Warren has come to this day and occupied such a large domestic market is because your company is interested in works. Instead of money, you are like this now..."
"What's wrong with me now?" Mr. Liu's face immediately lost the smile. He is much older than Zuo Yan, and he never expected that the director Zuo would dare to criticize him, "Do I need you for my job?" Come to teach? Xiao Zuo, you are just toasting and not eating or drinking fine wine!"
Zuo Yan couldn't bear this kind of dirty thing, so he held back his anger.
He is straightforward and stubborn, otherwise he would not have made so many films with his talent to achieve what he is now.
Seeing that Mr. Liu didn't respect the works at all, he couldn't bear it anymore. Just when he was about to explode, the door of the small reception room was knocked open suddenly.
It was the secretary who entertained them at the beginning, and now she was standing outside, calling them Mr. Liu: "Mr. Liu, please come out first, that..."
She made a gesture, and Mr. Liu understood immediately. He stood up and walked out with an attitude that he didn't want to get entangled with Zuo Yan.
"I'm so pissed off, I'm so pissed off! Unexpectedly, Hua Lun has become like this now, mercenary... It's simply hateful!" Zuo Yan was still scolding in the office, and Ji Yexi could only persuade him in a low voice.
Who wants Director Zuo to be silent again after scolding.
Sitting there silently, expressionless.
Producer He on the other side didn't make trouble at the moment, although he did guess Mr. Liu's idea perfectly.
He sighed and said to Zuo Yan: "You say you, why do you offend him? If you leave the green hills, you won't be afraid of no firewood. Now it's all over, it's all over! People with bare feet are not afraid of you wearing shoes, just in case People want to punish you, add fuel and say that you have a bad temper, do you still want to make good movies in the future?"
"Don't forget how you got to where you are today." The producer pushed his glasses, "For your ideals, just bear with it this time, okay? You are my brother! I beg you, wait a minute Don't talk when Mr. Liu comes back, I'll tell him something nice."
Producer He talked a lot, but Director Zuo only replied one sentence.
This time it was very quiet.
"It's because of constant compromise that I got to where I am today." Zuo Yan's eyes were a little red, and he even laughed at himself: "I, Zuo Yan, got to where I am today, all because of compromising with you capital."
Producer He: "..."
"Where is this my movie? You just find a monkey to act in it. As long as someone is willing to invest, it can be released."
"You..." Producer He didn't know what to say, and Ji Yexi could only lower his eyes, not knowing how to comfort her.
He used to think that the director was yelling around on the set, which was awesome.
Now that I think about it, I was rarely able to receive many plays before, so naturally I didn't have any dealings with the director.
It's a frog in a well.
It turns out that being a director is not comfortable.
But he actually understood Director Zuo's feeling very well at the moment.
The feeling that the world is different from what he thought, but he is completely powerless...
Ji Yexi blinked, hey, at a time like this, maybe he just persuaded himself to be more open-minded, not to care about anything, and happily do something he likes every day.
Or, like Director Zuo, facing the iron fist of reality head-on, embarrassed and injured.
Then it loops infinitely, without end.
He is too familiar with both methods.
Maybe it's because he's an optimist at heart, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with it later.
It's just that seeing such a Zuo guide always makes him feel sympathetic, and he feels uncomfortable.
Just as the room fell into silence again, Mr. Liu opened the door and came back.
When he came back this time, his attitude was very different from before he went out.
Looking around the room, Mr. Liu cleared his throat and said, "What, I just discussed this matter with the higher-ups, and we all agree that what you said, Xiao Zuo, is reasonable."
Three people in the room: "...?"
What?
Mr. Liu: "The reason why Warren has come to this day is precisely because the most important thing is the work."
"..."
"That's it, Lao He, you must use Xiao Ji." Mr. Liu said here, looking at Ji Yexi's eyes has become startled and fearful, he almost trembled and said: "Leader Zuo's eyes we It's still trustworthy... In short, you must continue to act in this movie Xiao Ji!"
The author has something to say: Producer: It doesn't seem like you were simply being taken care of by someone... What the hell are you doing!
Brother Xi: Of course not alone.Let's find out.
82. Want to be scumbag Day 82
"Xiao Ji?"
The three people in the room looked at each other.
It's not buddy... Your attitude has changed... Subtle!
He didn't look at people very seriously before, but now he has become Xiao Ji?
"Ah, no." Mr. Liu soon realized that something was wrong. Xiao Ji was not something he could call, so he quickly changed his words: "Mr. Ji! You see, I was really excited just now, Mr. Ji, please don't be offended."
The other two: "..."
Ji Yexi: "..."
Ji Yexi slammed his mouth, not understanding why the other party was so excited.
At this moment, the "tempered" Zuo Yan asked straightforwardly: "Mr. Liu, what did you mean just now...?"
"Hey, I still don't understand what I mean?" Mr. Liu said directly to Producer He: "It's better to do as we negotiated before."
The attitude of the other party changed too quickly. Producer He was afraid that he might have misunderstood, so he asked again: "Then 3000 million..."
"What is 3000 million, we have such an excellent team, so 3000 million can insert someone in?" Mr. Liu said: "Don't say 3000 million, even [-] million, don't even think about ruining a movie!"
Producer He: "..."
Director Left: "..."
Ji Yexi: "..."
The three people on the opposite side were already confused by Mr. Liu's impassioned declaration, but Mr. Liu still didn't think there was anything wrong, and still said: "After you go back, just shoot, if you don't have enough funds, come to me and tell me. Anyway, this movie of yours is ours. This year, Hua Lun focuses on the main event of capital injection and training, if you need anything, just ask, don't be polite!"
He & Zuo & Ji: "..."
Wait, when did they become Warren's most important film of the year?
Although Warren has always said that he has always been straightforward and generous in funding, as long as he can persuade Warren to inject capital, generally speaking, there is no need to go out to solicit other sponsorships.
But Warren doesn't know how many capital injections of this level will be made every year, so they won't become favorites, right?
The three of them left Warren's mansion in a daze.
Originally, Mr. Liu wanted to keep them to sit for a while and drink some tea.
Later, Director Zuo said he was going back to sign a contract with Xiao Ji, and Mr. Liu let him go.
Having said that, they took the elevator all the way to the door of the company, and they were willing to go back after seeing the three people getting on the car with their own eyes...
Back in the car, Producer He still couldn't believe it: "I'm not dreaming, am I?"
"...Is there anything in the dream?"
Director Left: "..."
Of course Zuo Yan also felt wrong.
Originally, he was going to use his trump card to withdraw from the filming of this movie, but he was killed, but he didn't expect...
But in any case, the matter has been resolved smoothly. As he said, the top priority now is to go back and sign the contract to avoid another accident.
Only Ji Yexi looked out the window, Junxiu frowned slightly, thinking about something.
The sun came in from the car window, and it was shining on his plump and handsome face. His fair skin was so shiny that it was almost transparent, and the young man looked like an angel.
Inside the Hualun Building, Mr. Liu, who had sent off Ji Yexi and his party, let out a sigh of relief. When he turned around, he saw Zhao Zong coming out of the corner.
"Xiao Zhao!... Oh, hey, Special Assistant Zhao, why are you still here?" Mr. Liu went up to meet him, and whispered in front of him, "I have sent them away as you ordered."
Although Mr. Liu is an old man of the Cheng Group, he has a high position and is many years older than Zhao Zong, but Zhao Zong is a celebrity in front of Mr. Cheng, with strong professional ability. People in the company saw him Be warm to him.
Zhao Zong nodded and said, "Mr. Cheng is worried, he wants me to come down and take a look."
Mr. Liu choked, "Mr. Cheng..."
Mr. Liu was still a little dazed when he was suddenly called out just now and asked him to give the green light to the crew all the way.
Later, he asked a few more questions, and Zhao Tezhu made a special point, but he only said that he must keep the young man surnamed Ji inside no matter what, and he must not be wronged.
Liu is always such a shrewd person, he immediately knew that the young man surnamed Ji had a backer.
But now seeing that Mr. Cheng even personally sent Zhao Zong down to check... He was startled, recalling the temperament and appearance of the young man just now, he couldn't help but rejoice that he didn't offend that young man in the first place.
Curious in my heart, I couldn't help but want to take a closer look.
Mr. Liu asked secretly: "Zhao Tezhu, you said that just now...he and Mr. Cheng..."
Zhao Zong didn't hide it either: "You were transferred by Mr. Cheng from another branch. You may not know that you were not in Hualun before. That is Young Master Ji, who is Mr. Cheng's...very close friend."
"Hey!" Mr. Liu acted surprised, his eyes widened, "That... that one has such a relationship with Mr. Cheng, why did you still audition yourself to be a supporting role?!"
Zhao Zong was also very helpless when asked about this.
He looked up at the sky, Mr. Cheng wanted to arrange a better role for Ji Shao.
Then Young Master Ji must agree.
But this can't be said, Zhao Zong can only say inscrutablely: "Who makes Ji Shao like it. If Ji Shao likes it, Mr. Cheng likes it."
President Liu: "..."
Mr. Liu was completely dumbfounded by this sentence.
Zhao Zong said again: "Oh, there is one more thing, Mr. Cheng asked you to go to his office in the afternoon when you have nothing to do."
"Ah?!" Mr. Liu immediately became nervous.
Mr. Cheng usually doesn't summon people in person. If he really finds someone to talk face to face, then it's a big deal.
Thinking about what happened just now... He wondered if Mr. Cheng was dissatisfied with the way he did things?
"No, don't be nervous." Zhao Zong said while motioning him to go back.
Seeing that this Mr. Liu is still clever and can tell a little bit, he added a few more words: "Mr. Liu, your business acumen is naturally beyond doubt, and everyone is sure of it. But you want to I know, Mr. Cheng loves the art of making movies more than anyone else."
President Liu: "...Yes."
"Hua Lun's investment can't just look at the rate of return on the money." Zhao Zong said, "I guess this is what Mr. Cheng wants to tell you."
"..."
After a farce ended, Ji Yexi finally got the role of Xu Zhong.
"Good things take time." Brother Xi comforted him when he heard that there were so many twists and turns in Xiao Qingning.
"That's what it says..." Ji Yexi stood in front of the window, crossing his arms and looking out of the window.
The window opposite was still pitch black, as still as a black pool of water.
It's been a long time since anyone came back to live there.
Xiao Qingning seemed to have thought of something, but finally changed his voice and said, "...no matter what happens, as long as this character is still Brother Xi's in the end, it means that you are destined for this character."
"Ok?"
Ji Yexi raised his eyebrows with interest, but he had never looked at problems in this way before.
Although the matter was resolved peacefully, after a turn, it looked as if nothing had happened in the end.
But everything that happened will leave traces in people's hearts.
On the way back, Ji Yexi always felt uncomfortable in his heart, but after hearing what Xiao Qingning said, he suddenly became enlightened.
——No matter what happened in the middle, in the end, after going around in circles, this role still fell on me.
He is just a small character, and Ji Yexi doesn't think he can figure out what God's will is. Now that he has this character, he should cherish it and be done.
There is no need to think about other things.
As long as Xu Zhong can be interpreted well, it is the best explanation to everyone, including himself.
Later, Ji Yexi went to fix her makeup, and continued to ponder the script at home when she had nothing to do.
After half a month, Duan Yiwei came back from other announcements, all the actors were in place, and the filming officially started.
Someone wanted to buy the role of Xu Zhong for 3000 million because it didn't work out in the end and was rejected on the same day, so it didn't cause any disturbance.
Many people simply don't know about it.
But after returning, Duan Yingdi got the news from nowhere, and still knew about the situation.
Film Emperor Duan originally wanted to comfort Ji Yexi with a few words, but he also climbed up step by step. Everyone has encountered this kind of thing when they were young, and the key is self-regulation.
Unexpectedly, Ji Yexi had already finished his self-guided strategy, and when we met again, he was still the young man who was handsome and delicate on the outside, but careless in his behavior.
Duan Yiwei couldn't help but praised: "Okay, strength and ability are one aspect, and a good psychological quality is more important. Who knows who will have the last laugh until the end."
Director Zuo also came up to praise.
Director Zuo was still an approachable big brother when he was not excited. He had discussed the script with Ji Yexi before, and found that Ji Yexi's understanding of the characters was far beyond his expectations. He couldn't help but have another meal in front of Duan Yingdi Blow hard.
"Then take a look." Duan Yiwei looked at Ji Yexi with admiring eyes, couldn't help stretching out five fingers of one hand, and said, "I have never recommended more than this number in my life, so you should know that." It's the weight of Xiaoji."
"It's a good thing I wanted to keep Xiao Ji when I died before." Director Zuo proudly puffed out his chest at this point, as if he needed to be praised too.
……
Rao Ji Yexi is a thick-skinned person, and he is almost ashamed to be surrounded by them.
Fortunately, this is in the director's studio, there are no outsiders, otherwise it will probably attract a lot of attention.
Not much to say, after the opening ceremony, the filming officially started.
In the past few days, we focused on filming Duan Actor's scenes, not only because he has the most roles, but also because he is a seasoned actor, and his acting skills are outstanding. He can be the first to enter the role, and his private scenes are the best.
During this period of free time, other people can talk to the lines together or listen to the director's lectures. When there is no task, they can either rest in the hotel, or come to the crew to watch Duan Yingdi's filming.
Ji Yexi chose the latter. He prepared a ponytail and squatted next to the left director every day, watching Duan Yiwei's acting and listening to the director's evaluation of him.
Others feel that the wind and sun are very hard, but he enjoys it quite a lot.
During the days of squatting in the crew, his heart is peaceful, as if this is the life that should really belong to him.
And because of the relationship between actor Duan and director Zuo's preference, Ji Yexi's life in the crew was quite good. When the staff saw him, they either called him Xiao Ji or Brother Ji, not to mention how affectionate they were.
This treatment is different from when I was in the crew before, Ji Yexi is already very satisfied.
He is really happy.
The only thing that is not ideal is that he leaves early and returns late, and has signed a non-disclosure agreement not to disclose his work on the set, so it is almost impossible to broadcast live on Slow Hands.
Even uploading a video every day is mostly pre-recorded inventory.
In addition, this time Xiao Qingning also came to the crew as his assistant.
I said I was learning something, but in fact I did a lot of groceries after being busy. The two of them didn't have time to run the slow-handed business. The business there could only temporarily let it go downhill. This is also impossible.
But there is no need to be persuaded in this regard, Ji Yexi can figure it out on his own.
Just as he didn't want to give up being an anchor just because he was a star, he sacrificed his career in the entertainment industry to become an anchor. This is his approach and choice.
So now that I have accepted the job of filming, I should give up being an anchor for the sake of filming.
This is also the choice he should implement.
It can't be said that one side was sacrificed for the other side, anyway, it's what he likes to do, and every day has not been let down and wasted.
Ji Yexi didn't care even if there was a serious drop of fans, and he still wandered around the set with a pony strap every day.
Duan Yingdi and Ms. Pang Lanxin, who played the heroine, played on the same stage for a few days, and finally it was Ji Yexi's turn to appear.
The order of filming is not set according to the timeline in the movie. Ji Yexi's first scene is Xu Zhong's work as an undercover agent in an MLM organization after graduating from high school.
In the first scene, Xu Zhong deliberately wandered around the train station for a few days, pretending to be a student who had graduated from high school and failed to enter the university and ran away to find a job, deliberately attracting the attention of the MLM organization.
In order to make the movie look realistic and make the audience empathize with him, Ji Yexi is now an image of a student who has never seen the world. He even has a rough image with bangs and long sideburns in his hairstyle.
Looks like it hasn't been cut in a long time.
In fact, Ji Yexi has been notified since signing the contract, and he never cut it again.
In addition, just after the new year, he didn't cut his hair too much during the new year, and the current hairstyle is his real look.
None have been polished by the stylist.
Because Director Zuo said that his face is too pretty, once it is modified, it will look too delicate, so he won't let the stylist do it.
But even so, Ji Yexi, who is carrying a dilapidated schoolbag and wearing unpretentious street clothes, can stand out just by standing there, eye-catching enough.
Director Zuo looked at his image and thought it was better to give it a try first, so he called out.
In a crowded train station, a young man with a ticket in his hand stood helplessly in front of a fast food restaurant not far from the exit, looking up at the recruitment information on it.
"Look." The assistant director said from the side: "I just said that Xiao Ji is too delicate, this doesn't look like..."
Before he finished speaking, Director Zuo made a gesture to silence him.
The camera zoomed in to take a close-up shot of his face. The young man, who was radiant just now with flying brows and eyes, didn't know how he did it. His facial features suddenly looked very ordinary.
Not as distinctive as before.
In other words, at first glance at this face, you will only feel that he is still childish, but you will no longer be amazed by his outstanding appearance.
"hiss……"
This effect...
The assistant director felt strange and couldn't help but sit up straight.
83. Want to be scumbag Day 83
Film is an art.
But sometimes you meet actors who really know how to act, and watching them act is also an art.
Ji Yexi's scenes were filmed interspersed with other actors' scenes. Even so, since he himself basically had a single pass, the scenes related to being an undercover agent were filmed in less than two days.
Within two days, including the assistant director, all the big names with experience in related fields looked at Ji Yexi with admiration.
Some people have ordinary looks, but when the plot requires it, they can make themselves look extraordinary. This is their foundation.
Some people's looks are not ordinary, but they can restrain their sharpness when necessary and fully integrate their temperament into the role. This is also a foundation.
At the beginning, he didn't support Ji Yexi as Xu Zhong's assistant director. He changed his mind and started to praise Ji Yexi.
Needless to say, Teacher Duan and Director Zuo, even Ms. Pang Lanxin Pang, who did not know Ji Yexi before, praised Ji Yexi very much.
Ms. Pang and Duan Yingdi are in the same age group. When they were young, they were popular for a while with a movie, but they returned to the family and did not come out to film for many years.
So so far, I haven't won any sensational awards.
But after her comeback, she soon participated in a movie and a TV series, and then became popular.
Many young people today don't know what she once acted in,
