The bard joins the entertainment industry

In a large conference hall.

All the principals and investors of the "Jian Yu Jiang Hu" crew gathered together to hold a discussion.

As soon as they met, Zhou Ping and Jiang Xuerou said to Zhang Yimou sincerely: "Director Zhang, I will ask you to take care of this this time."

Zhang Yimou waved his hand and said: "The specifics still depend on yourselves. I am only a producer this time. What I can accomplish depends on your ability."

"That's natural, that's natural." Zhou Ping smiled and said, "Please, Director Zhang!"

With that said, he invited Zhang Yimou to sit at the head of the table.

Zhang Yimou gave in for a while, and then sat at the main seat under everyone's warm invitation.

On his left and right were Jiang Xuerou and Zhou Ping, and Zhang Weiping on the other.

Zhang Yimou, Zhang Weiping, Jiang Xuerou, and Han Sanpin are the producers of this drama, but Han Sanpin was busy and did not come to participate today.

Moreover, he will not participate in specific affairs in the future, just in name.

The four of them are also the producers, and the producers are Jiang Xuerou and Zhang Weiping.

On both sides of the conference table, on one side were the crew headed by directors Liang Guoguang, Liu Guonan and others, and on the other side were the investors headed by China Film and Uni-Asia.

Chen Shuo also participated in this meeting, sitting next to action director Cheng Xiaodong. The two had worked together before on "House of Flying Daggers" and were no strangers to it.

"Director Zhang, let me tell you a few words first!" After everyone sat down, Zhou Ping wanted to ask Zhang Yimou to open the meeting for everyone.

Zhang Yimou said: "President Zhou should first explain the content of today's meeting."

"Oh well."

Zhou Ping did not refuse, stood up and said: "Today is the first day that our crew was officially established. I hope everyone can work hard to complete this work better."

Bang bang bang~

As the round of applause ended, he continued: "The formation of the crew cannot be achieved without the support of investors. Let me introduce it to you.

This is Manager Liu Feiliu of China Film Group, and this is Manager Zhao Chengzhao of UniAsia..."

Investors are the God of Wealth of the crew, so they must be treated with corresponding respect.

Whenever Zhou Ping introduced someone, everyone applauded, and Liu Fei, Zhao Cheng and others also stood up to signal to everyone.

After each investor representative introduced each one one by one, Zhou Ping continued: "Thanks to the support of all investors, our show can have such abundant capital, allowing us to make this show even better.

However, with money, someone has to execute it. The quality of a drama depends entirely on how we filmmakers produce it.

The formation of the crew is nothing more than two points, one is the composition of the personnel, and the other is the selection of actors.

The composition of the crew has been discussed before, so now Director Zhang will announce the roster. "

After hearing this, everyone applauded again and looked at Zhang Yimou.

Zhang Yimou said he was the producer of this drama, but everyone knew that the biggest selling point was to label this drama "Zhang Yimou's work".

Letting him announce the appointment of the crew actually shows that he is the one in control of the entire crew.

He also has to be in control of the entire crew.

You have to do things when you get money. Without spending a penny, you get 20% of the net profit share and a salary of 10 million. Zhang Yimou also knows what he has to pay.

After everyone applauded, he stood up and said, "Thank you for your trust.

I came to supervise the production of this work at the invitation of Chen Shuo. Of course, I am only a supervising producer.

Whether a film is good or bad is basically in the hands of the director. Therefore, if you want to make a good film, it still depends on the director's ability. "

He turned to Liang Guoguang and Liu Guonan and said, "Guoguang, Guonan, this is up to you."

Liang Guoguang and Liu Guonan stood up quickly and said, "I promise not to disappoint Director Zhang."

Although Liang Guoguang has never made a movie, he has been studying continuously since last year and practicing at Beijing Film Studio and other places.

Directors' abilities are basically the same. Once you are used to the way movies are shot, it is not too difficult for a successful director.

Moreover, Liang Guoguang is also very talented in directing.

He has previously participated in the filming of "Xiao Shiyilang" and "The Young King", and has led the filming of "Water Moon Cave", "Legend of the Spirit Mirror" and "Jingwei Reclamation".

Liu Guonan once served as an assistant director and collaborated with Zhang Yimou and Gu Changwei on many films, short films, promotional films, commercials and other types of film and television works.

He is also the first assistant director of "Hero" and also has rich directing experience.

He has also directed many TV dramas, but they are not as famous as Liang Guoguang's works.

This time, he was asked to check for the omissions of Liang Guoguang, and he was also asked to officially lead a film.

Zhang Yimou knew Liu Guonan's level very well, and also tested Liang Guoguang, and believed that the two were still capable of directing this work.

The most important thing is that both Liang Guoguang and Liu Guonan have rich experience as assistant directors and strong executive director abilities.

The screenwriter does not need to be appointed by him. He is a member of the Pumpkin Creative Center such as Chen Shuo and Chen Manling.

Then there is photographer Zhao Xiaoding. Zhang Weiping forgot to apply for the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Award for him last year, so he was separated from the award.

This time it was a blockbuster, directly winning the Oscar for Best Cinematography.

This also means that his photography ability has been recognized by the highest art palace.

Just based on his current reputation, some people are willing to invest in it.

Later, art director Huo Tingxiao, action director Cheng Xiaodong, recording Tao Jing, and art designer Han Zhong were all Zhang Yimou's old team members.

Chen Shuo will not star this time, but he will participate as a screenwriter and assistant action director.

Moreover, since he was the youngest person at the meeting, not even twenty years old, he attracted a lot of attention.

However, not many people expressed objections to this. After all, there are no secrets under the sun.

Everyone knows more or less that the reason why this crew has developed to what it is today is because of Chen Shuo's great efforts.

And with his current age and fame, he will definitely have a bright future in the future. As a partner, there is no need to show unnecessary malice, let alone take action.

Zhang Weiping looked at Chen Shuo with flickering eyes, and then smiled.

When it comes to interests, it's clear he knows what to do.

This meeting went very smoothly. The composition of the crew was finalized, which also indicated that the entire crew was officially in operation.

After that, we started to select scenes and storyboard based on the information we found previously, then prepared props and recruited actors.

But these have nothing to do with Chen Shuo.

What he needs to do is seize the time to finish filming "The Condor".

On March 10, the entertainment industry started a new round of selection of the top four actresses.

Starting from 2001, for the first time, Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Xun, Xu Jinglei and other four people were officially called the Four Xiaohuadan.

Later, as Zhang Ziyi entered the international market, her positioning was different from that of the other three.

Then Fan Bingbing, driven by Wang Jinghua, began to think about taking Zhang Ziyi's place and becoming the new Four Little Girls.

It's just that this statement is not recognized by everyone, and it still follows the original composition.

However, after Fan Bingbing became the Best Actress of the Hundred Flowers Awards last year, she started a new round of attempts.

This time, she no longer wants to replace Zhang Ziyi, but brings together Liu Yifei, Chen Hao, and Shu Chang to form a new four little dandies to form a division with the original four.

Although Liu Yifei didn't care too much about this, Chen Jingfei and Hongxingwu didn't think so.

Started to jointly promote this matter with Wang Jinghua, Wu Qi and others.

Fan Bingbing and Chen Hao are both artists under Wang Jinghua, and Liu Yifei and Shu Chang have a close relationship.

Pulling the two people together also means pulling in Chen Jingfei and Zhou Yi.

Today's Zhouyi Propaganda Department, established under the leadership of Wu Qi, has great influence.

Suddenly, this proposal has been accepted by many people.

Seeing this, Wu Qi and others directly established a voting event online.

Voting channels have been opened for the Four Major Huadans and the New Four Little Huadans. Choose who is your favorite Four Big Huadans and the New Four Little Huadans.

This time, it can be said that eight people have been bound to a certain extent.

"Currently, Sissi's vote count is firmly ranked first among the New Four Xiaohuadans. Even if all eight of them are included, Sissi is second only to Zhang Ziyi and the other one. However, I heard recently that her attitude towards reporters is not very good when she is drunk. , which had a considerable impact on her popularity.

If this is true, Sissi's ranking may be even higher. Huang Ying said, holding a laptop and browsing the information on it.

Chen Shuo packed his things and said, "Since there is hope, let's just let Brother Qi settle this matter.

Apart from filming "The Condor" and waiting for an album to be released in the middle of the year, Sissi basically has no other works this year.

With the title of a four-star actress, she can leave a deep impression on everyone. "

Huang Ying put away the computer and said, "Don't worry, Brother Qi is also very concerned about this matter.

The boss and sister Xiaolou also want to promote Changchang first. After all, her acting skills are not bad and her popularity is not bad.

Although it is not as good as Fan Bingbing and Xixi's award bonus, it still has a good foundation.

Among the new four Xiaohuadan, she can be regarded as the one responsible for acting.

With this name, she will have more resources in the future. "

Chen Shuo nodded when he heard this, although both Zhou Ping and Jiang Xuerou focused most of their energy on "Sword Rain Jiang Hu".

But after tasting the sweetness of fame, he also began to plan to launch his own representative characters.

Needless to say, Chen Shuo earned his reputation as a top four student early on by his own abilities, and was the only one in his class.

The remaining two, Yu Bo and Shu Chang, are not only famous, but also have acting skills.

At this stage, Wu Qi also began to focus on promoting the two of them, hoping that they would become Zhou Yi's business cards.

Chen Shuo is also happy to see this happen. In occasional interviews and press conferences, when others asked him about it, he would jokingly ask his fans to vote for the three of them.
