Chapter 521: Which one is better for vacation? Liangjian crew is the best
Chapter 521: Which one is better for vacation? Liangjian crew is the best
Du Chonglin was a little confused.
It’s almost the Chinese New Year, and a job like group acting is not a formal job to begin with. Basically, everyone who can go home is going home to celebrate the New Year.
Unless they are really poor, not many people will continue to be extras.
Especially this time, the filming location is still in Anseong. Bashui Film and Television City has just developed. Compared with other large film and television cities, there are fewer people available here.
It's impossible for this person to appear out of thin air.
At this time, Du Chonglin suddenly thought of a type of person.
He asked: "You don't want to go to college students, do you?"
Xu Ye smiled and said, "Yeah, I just saw the group chat in our school. The university is basically having final exams these days. After the exams are over, these college students will also be on vacation, so they can be the group performers."
Du Chonglin immediately said: "I don't think this is good. None of the college students have acted. Besides, students want to go out to play during the holidays. Who will work on the crew?"
In fact, some production crews used college students as extras in the past, but the effect was not very good, and they were not used much later.
Xu Ye also had detailed communication with the casting director.
"It may be hopeless for Liangjian to be on the same date as War!"
At that time, Huang Bo didn't say anything and directly bought the TV broadcast rights of "Bright Sword".
"How long did it take to polish the script of "War on Fire", and how long did it take to show off the sword?"
Of course Du Chonglin also thought about looking for college students, but gave up after thinking about it.
On the Internet, news about the filming of "War on Fire" will be released from time to time, such as the news that someone is visiting the team again.
This information is not a secret. If you hang around in the circle, you can find out by just asking around.
There is no doubt that this war drama starring Wang Jiahao has attracted everyone's attention.
Huang Bo understood that the rapid development of Changan Satellite TV in the past two years has a lot to do with Xu Ye.
That needs help.
Unexpectedly, I also encountered the problem of not being able to find extras.
After the show "Bright Sword" was withdrawn from the program, Huang Bo immediately called Xu Ye.
Xu Ye's anti-fans also came forward one after another and joined in.
"Okay, then I'll listen to you."
Huang Bo also helped contact Bashui Film and Television City and gave him a lot of support during the filming.
This Weibo post talks about the current situation of the Bright Sword crew. Although they are almost ready, they haven’t found all the extras yet.
For a time, there was an endless stream of negative news about "Bright Sword" on the Internet.
Filming on a film set is a hard job. Why do college students come to the set and suffer, just for the salary of 80 yuan and 100 yuan a day?
Xu Ye is a star who came out of our Anseong TV station!
Now Xu Ye is wronged, and as a family member, he must help.
"Want to meet the deadline? There's no way to do it. Even if it's actually shot, it's shoddy!"
Xu Ye said: "I know this. You should hurry up and prepare. Don't be prepared when the extras are in place and you are not ready."
"A bright sword touches a porcelain and a fire breaks out. This time it's very difficult!"
The drama "Catching Fire" can be said to be an all-round investment, and even every hot search is carefully planned.
The two dramas have not yet started airing, but the competition has actually begun.
College students also have to watch how you use it.
After hanging up the phone, Du Chonglin gave Xu Ye the contact information of the casting director.
"Xu Ye doesn't even dare to name a producer or director, he's obviously giving in!"
After this gossip account posted such a Weibo, a large number of marketing accounts soon followed.
Winning "Bright Sword" is definitely risky, but Huang Bo doesn't care.
Huang Bo, the director of Ancheng TV station, also made a special call to Xu Ye to inquire about the situation.
Soon an entertainment gossip account sent a message.
"Except for the screenwriter Xu Ye, Xu Ye has not participated in any other work on the Bright Sword crew. Does this mean that Xu Ye is not optimistic about this drama?"
Naturally, Xu Ye didn't care. Anyway, it wouldn't be broadcast on CCTV. It would be fine on Chang'an Satellite TV.
It is clear that someone is behind these news.
Du Chonglin expressed his concerns to Xu Ye.
Nowadays, Changan Satellite TV is much better than before thanks to its two dramas "Wulin Gaiden" and "Hurry Up".
Unless absolutely necessary, the average film crew will not hire college students to act as extras.
This is already a consensus in the industry.
At the end of Weibo, the account said directly: "As far as I know, Xu Ye wrote the script of Liang Jian in a hurry. It can even be said that Xu Ye wrote this script purely because he wanted to compete with "War on Fire", but it was very difficult. Obviously, the result of this rush is insufficient preparation.”
"As the New Year approaches, the Liangjian crew is facing staffing difficulties!"
Xu Ye also understands these situations, but other crews can't use college students well, which doesn't mean that he can't use college students well.
"Director Huang, it's not a big problem. Let's do this. If you really want to help me, after I send out the news about recruiting extras, you can ask the TV station to forward it for me using my official account." Xu Ye said.
"It's all a trivial matter, no problem!" Huang Bo agreed.
The official account is not allowed to post anything casually, but there is no problem in advertising "Bright Sword".
What’s wrong with me being an advertisement for a TV series filmed and shown in Anseong?
After hanging up the phone, Huang Bo suddenly realized a problem.
"That's not right. Shouldn't you post it in the group chat for extra actors? It's useful for us to post it, but it's not very useful."
Blue Bird Entertainment.
Song Zhengqi also made a special trip to visit the crew of "Catching Fire" and took a look at the scene.
After seeing what was going on at the scene, he felt more at ease.
The filming progress of "War on Fire" is progressing steadily, and no major problems were encountered during the filming.
Compared with the crew of "Bright Sword", the situation on their side is not going too smoothly.
The advantage is mine. Song Zhengqi sat leisurely on the chair, enjoying the massage service from his secretary.
The female secretary smiled and said: "Du Chonglin has been in Ancheng for two days, and we haven't found enough extras yet."
Song Zhengqi smiled and said: "It's normal that we can't find it. We might as well start filming after the new year. We will decide the schedule based on the situation. The initiative now is completely in our hands."
Of course Song Zhengqi understood that Xu Ye wanted to use "Bright Sword" to fight him, but you had to take pictures first.
Why are you shooting if you haven't photographed anything?
When the time comes for "War on Fire" to be filmed first, Xu Ye will be the only one who is anxious.
On the Internet, the discussion has not stopped.
Xu Ye estimated that these black manuscripts were bought for him by Jade Bird, which made Xu Ye feel a little embarrassed.
Don’t let this free heat go to waste.
Today, he and the casting director formally determined the recruitment criteria for extras.
It is true that college students are selected as extras, but not everyone can be an extra.
For example, you are 1.83 meters tall and as handsome as Xu Ye. How can you play a Japanese?
You can't act at all. You don't look like a Japanese when you put on Japanese clothes and stand there.
This is not to say that there are no such people in Little Devils, but the actors must conform to the audience's perception and be integrated with the background of the entire drama.
Once these standards are set, it will be more efficient when selecting people.
After the recruitment criteria were set, the casting director said: "Director Xu, should I write a recruitment announcement and send it out on Weibo now?"
Xu Ye said: "In what age are there still recruitment announcements? Do you think college students who are busy reviewing will have time to read your recruitment announcements?"
The casting director asked confusedly: "Then why not write a recruitment announcement?"
"Don't worry, I'll record a video for you."
The casting director was confused.
Shouldn’t recruitment announcements present information clearly and directly?
Wouldn't it be more complicated if you record a video?
Who would watch your recruitment video?
But Xu Ye didn't say anything, and the casting director didn't dare to make his own decision.
Xu Ye is not only a screenwriter, but also an investor.
After waiting for several hours, the casting director finally received the video from Xu Ye.
When he clicked on the video and watched it again, his mind was filled with questions.
He sent a message to Xu Ye.
"Director Xu, is this really okay?"
Xu Ye only replied with two words.
"It's covered."
The casting director bravely sent this video to the publicity team of "Bright Sword" and asked the publicity team to post the video on the official account.
After receiving his video, the head of the publicity team quickly sent him a question mark.
The casting director replied: "Mr. Xu personally requested it."
In the end, the video was sent out.
Not only did Liang Jian’s official Weibo post, but a major studio also posted it, and Xu Ye also posted this video on his personal account.
Anseong University, in a study room.
The study room was very quiet. All the students sitting there were either studying seriously or playing with their mobile phones seriously.
The feeling of playing with mobile phones in the classroom is completely different from playing in the dormitory.
Cui Kai was sitting in the second-to-last row of the classroom. He had just been studying for half an hour and was going to play on his mobile phone and relax.
Cui Kai is now a senior, and he and Xu Ye are roommates in the same dormitory.
When we first entered school, we were all in the same dormitory.
It's just that Xu Ye at that time was obviously not as lively and cheerful as he is now. We had just known each other for a year. After Xu Ye took a leave of absence from school, we had less contact.
Cui Kai didn't feel much about his roommate who was now a big star. Everyone was used to having a large group of fierce people around him.
Anseong University is a land of crouching tigers, hidden dragons. Sometimes when you are walking on the road, you see a little old man riding a bicycle. This little old man is actually the leader of a domestic confidential project.
Cui Kai turned on his hand shaker and scrolled through the video in boredom.
In fact, he has already passed the graduate school. He is sitting here studying simply because he is too bored and has nothing to do. Especially the thought of spending a boring winter vacation makes him feel that life is very boring and he wants to have fun.
After swiping and swiping, Cui Kai came across a video.
The person in the video is clearly Xu Ye.
He looked down and saw that the person who posted this video was Xu Ye.
"What kind of video is this?"
Cui Kai quickly clicked pause and took the headphones out of his bag.
Wearing headphones to watch videos is the greatest respect for your former roommates.
After the preparations were completed, Cui Kai clicked play.
The next second, Xu Ye's voice reached his ears.
"Which one is better for vacation, Liangjian crew is the best!"
In the video, Xu Ye is wearing a suit, with his upper body in the picture, and the background is the live environment of the film and television city.
There are introductions with yellow characters on a blue background at the top and bottom of the video.
It reads: "It's free to join the group and play. You can make money by playing during the holidays. A real-life role-playing game to satisfy your desire to perform."
It reads below: "The Liangjian crew of Anseong Bashui Film and Television City is recruiting extras. The price is 80 yuan a day, including food and transportation. The email address for sending your resume is..."
