Chapter 250 You must seize the opportunity
At nine o'clock in the morning, the sixth floor of the Buckingham Hotel became lively.
The 36 rooms on this floor were provided to the crew free of charge, and the accommodation fee was not included in Luo Yu's investment.
When we had dinner together on the 19th, Wen Jianjun calculated that the accommodation fee would be at least 500,000, but Luo Yu said arrogantly at the time that the hotel's occupancy rate was not 50% anyway, and most of the rooms were idle and unused. It's better to exchange it for something practical when you are idle.
As for what he actually changed, Luo Yu didn't elaborate, and Sun Tao and Wen Jianjun didn't ask, thinking that Buckingham would just plant some invisible advertisements in the movie.
——
At 9:05, "dong dong dong, dong dong dong" the door of 6005 was knocked.
"Dong dong dong, dong dong dong." She continued to knock before the door opened, "Sun Tao, Sun Tao, it's time to have breakfast."
"Squeak", the door of 6003 opened, and producer Zhang Huanchun yawned and stuck his head out, "Yueyue, stop knocking. Sun Tao left early in the morning and went to the train station to see someone off."< br>
"Oh!" Tang Yueyue nodded sadly. In the movie, Ma Dongmei, played by her, and Xia Luo, played by Sun Tao, were husband and wife, but they had little interaction behind the camera.
She even went to Sun Tao specifically for this purpose, but Sun Tao said that Xia Luo and Ma Dongmei, a middle-aged couple, had disliked each other before they were reborn, and that it was not good for them to be too warm.
Zhang Huanchun closed the door and shook his head. He carefully chose Zhao Qianshan, who was about to retire, but he still looked away.
……
Who has the final say on a film crew? Most people's first reaction is definitely the director. In fact, it's hard to say. Sometimes it's the director, sometimes it's the producer, sometimes it's a big name, and sometimes it's the screenwriter.
The nominal boss is not necessarily the boss, just like Chao Gai, the king of heaven on Shuibo Liang Mountain, he cannot command his brothers.
Power usually comes from two aspects, personnel power and financial power.
A boss fired the finance manager, but before leaving the job, the finance manager helped the company pay 6 million in back taxes.
A boss fired his sales director, but he turned around and built a small workshop, which soon destroyed his old employer.
……
Tang Yueyue was recommended by Zhao Qianshan, Liu Jiuzhe who played Yuanhua was also selected by Zhao Qianshan, and Song Yi who played Zhang Yang was also selected by Zhao Qianshan. These people all obeyed his words.
Old Man Zhao doesn't hold much power in the crew, but he can't help but these people listen to him.
Although he had the support of Sun Tao and his group of Wu'an sects, Zhang Huanchun always felt that it was missing a little bit of meaning.
"Bang Bang Bang." Zhang Huanchun frowned. Tang Yueyue just knocked on Sun Tao's door, but actually came to harass him. It was okay if he just said a few words to her.
As soon as he opened the door, "Hahaha, Xiao Zhang, let's go and eat." Old man Zhao stood outside the door laughing.
It is said that those who have no desires are strong. Zhang Huanchun remembered that Zhao Qianshan called him Factory Director Zhang a few years ago. Now that he is about to be promoted, but he is also retiring, his attitude towards him is more casual.
……
The director and producer lived at the far end, and they strolled towards the elevator in the middle of the floor.
"Hey, I didn't expect that I would be able to meet such a wealthy crew at this old age. Look, there are 36 rooms on the first floor. Everyone has a private room to live in. The specially invited actors who didn't go back last night can also be on this floor. Get a free standard room here.”
"The boss is an investor. Even if his room is empty, he can still make money after filming. This boss is very ambitious. He even told me that he would invite me to be a consultant for their company."
"Consultant? He also wants to change his career in the entire media company! Haha, quit this good hotel?"
"This is just an empty shelf, can't you see, the occupancy rate is extremely low."
"That's right. A place as big as Wu'an is not a tourist city, so what did he think when he opened the hotel?"
Zhang Huanchun chuckled, "Who knows? If you have more money, you'll burn it."
Zhao Qianshan also laughed, "If you think about it, people who run media companies must have something wrong with their brains! Hahaha."
[Good director Zhao, good producer Zhang...]
The actors and stage managers they met came over to say hello, and Zhao Qianshan responded with a smile. Zhang Huanchun just nodded coldly. He hated the behavior of putting him behind Zhao Qianshan.
At the elevator entrance, people around them gave up their seats in the front row to the two of them.
Zhang Huanchun, "What do you think of the future of this film?"
"Hahaha, there's no need to say that. To be honest, when I saw the script, I knew that this film was Xiao Boda's best script. Originally, I was most worried about the actors." Zhang Huanchun chuckled, "Just tell Sun Tao not That’s it.”
Zhao Qianshan shook his head and sighed: "Oh, I was so worried on the first day. I thought he had some knowledge, but it turns out that he is really an amateur. No, he is not even an amateur, he is just a layman."< br>
Zhang Huanchun chuckled, "I was so desperate at that time."
"Did you think at that time that luckily I found Lao Zhaotou to be my backer?"
"No, no, I'd be considered human if I thought that way. I just thought, this Sun Tao has no acting foundation at all. How could I trust him so easily? It's strange. This guy has always had a plan in mind. How could I?" Thinking that he has zero basic knowledge..."
Zhao Qianshan sighed, "Oh, it's a pity that he hasn't received systematic training, otherwise his upper limit will definitely be higher."
Zhang Huanchun glanced proudly, "Old Zhao, what you said is wrong. Systematic training only has a lower limit. The upper limit depends on talent and personality. Look at Sun Tao's grandson, we all said it was OK and he still insisted on it over and over again. Repeat.”
People around heard the director and the producer talking about the starring actors and listened intently. A little girl burst into laughter before she could hold it in, but it stopped immediately when someone pulled her back. When Zhang Huanchun looked back, everyone was not watching. Heaven is looking at the earth.
The elevator came, but no one followed the two of them into the elevator. Old Man Zhao invited them several times and no one got on, so he didn't force them anymore.
"Bah!" As soon as the elevator door closed, it was boiling outside.
[Yeah, I didn’t expect Sun Tao either. Well, Teacher Sun really doesn’t know how to act. He couldn’t even find the camera anywhere on the first day. 】
[Who says it’s not the case? I wanted to die at that time. Anyway, I showed off all my awesomeness...]
[Hey, tell me, did Teacher Sun do that on the first day intentionally to show us? 】
[He pretends to be a layman! What is he planning? 】
[But how do you explain that he suddenly changed his mind later? I was under so much pressure when we were reviewing the lines, and I was really drawn into the drama in a second. The teachers in our school are not that powerful! 】
[Maybe he saw that the crew was full of newcomers and was deliberately trying to relieve us of the pressure. 】
[Well, it’s possible, it’s possible that I was quite nervous to begin with, but then when I saw how good the male protagonists were, I wasn’t nervous anymore, hahaha. 】
Tang Yueyue listened quietly to everyone talking about Sun Tao. Everyone said that Sun Tao's performance in the first scene was disaster-level, but only she, the opposite actor, knew that Sun Tao was impeccable except for not knowing the common sense of filming. He played a middle-aged man himself. Ma Dongmei relied on makeup, but as soon as Sun Tao frowned, she immediately felt that he was a poor, middle-aged loser who had accomplished nothing.
"Yueyue, Sun Tao has made rapid progress only because of your guidance. Didn't he thank you in private?"
When Tang Yueyue looked up, standing next to her was Tian Rui, who plays the second female lead Qiu Ya.
At first, everyone in the crew said that Sun Tao was in love with Tian Rui and would seek out her for all good things. He would ask her to be a judge when he started a variety show. He would also recommend her to perform as a solo dancer when writing songs, and he would make her the second female lead in a movie...
Tang Yueyue knew very well that after filming every day, Sun Tao would either discuss the plot with the director or go back to the room to rest by himself. He never talked nonsense with any actress.
Tang Yueyue curled her lips and said, "He still thanks me? He really regards me as a wretched wife in and out of the play, and he doesn't even bother to look at me!"
As soon as Tang Yueyue finished complaining, someone around her refuted her, "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you, so why do I see him always playing with you in private?"
Tang Yueyue glanced at Hu Daji, who played Dachun, "He didn't ask you to play against him in private?"
Hu Daji scratched his head, "Oh my god, don't mention this. I'm scared when I mention it. The director and producer both said that the filming was good, but he always felt that it was not done well and had to do it over again. ”
[This is what people call striving for excellence. 】
[I heard that Master Xing is like this. 】
[Master Xing is a tyrant on the set, and I think Teacher Sun also has such potential. 】
Suddenly someone asked Tian Rui, "Sister Tian, you and Teacher Sun have known each other for the first time. I heard that he is writing songs for Sun Nan recently. Is it true?"
"By the way, I also heard that before our launch ceremony, Producer Zhang and Teacher Sun went to Fengtian to have dinner with Zhao Benshan."
"By the way, during the promotion, it was said that Na Ying would also make a guest appearance. Is it true?"
Tian Rui looked at these chirping little girls and Tang Yueyue with her ears pricked up, and laughed, "Really, of course it's all true, and he's really only 19 and doesn't have a girlfriend yet. You have to catch him." Opportunity, after passing this village, there is no such store!”
