Chapter 206: Starting to find fault?
Sun Amy and Chen Xiaolong looked at each other, with some panic and confusion in their expressions.
They also just learned from Li Fengfeng that "Teacher Xu Chen" who gives feedback in the group every day is actually less than twenty years old.
They found it extremely unbelievable and wondered if the information Mr. Li had seen was wrong?
After all, the various opinions fed back by "Teacher Xu Chen" in the group look like veterans who have been involved in advertising for many years.
Until they met "Teacher Xu Chen" himself...
What made the two people panic at this moment was that the group of aggressive young people just called him "Brother Chen" and acted obediently in front of him.
What kind of god is this "Teacher Xu Chen"?
He was the creative director of an advertising company when he was less than 20 years old, and won Mr. Li's pitch.
But at this moment, a bunch of rough northern guys who looked like they were not good people were respectfully called "Brother".
This is no longer unexpected, but completely beyond the scope of the two of them...
The two of them looked at Li Fengfeng who had just been helped up, and they became more and more at a loss.
In fact, just seeing Li Fengfeng being knocked down and threatened, both of them felt a "secretly happy" feeling in their hearts for no reason.
Perhaps he was used to being bullied by this "Mr. Li" before, but now that he saw him frustrated, he felt that he had somehow vented his anger on her.
But now I have to face a very practical problem at work...
Mr. Li and this "Teacher Xu Chen" caused a great deal of unhappiness as soon as they met. I am afraid they will encounter a lot of resistance during the next two days of project shooting.
The most important thing is that Mr. Xu Chen, as the "supervisor" appointed by client Party A, needs to control and confirm the entire advertising film shooting process.
The final commercial film also needs Xu Chen's signature and acceptance.
Now that there is such a big gap with him, I am afraid that the subsequent filming and acceptance will predictably be very unsatisfactory...
Sun Amy and Chen Xiaolong are both low-level employees responsible for implementation. If Teacher Xu Chen just makes some suggestions or objections, it will be enough for them to work overtime and stay up late.
Thinking of this, the two of them looked at Li Fengfeng's plump back again, feeling a little more resentful in their hearts.
Even if you know that the other person is young, you shouldn’t start a grudge like this...
Of course, at this moment, Li Fengfeng was also confused and worried.
As the executive director of the project, he naturally knew that Teacher Xu Chen had the right to speak as a "supervisor".
In fact, the curse he just got off the bus was just to vent his anger before entering the door. He did not expect that the group of young people standing at the door were actually Xu Chen's "little brothers".
But now it is indeed extremely embarrassing. The next two days of filming will probably be miserable.
As a veteran who has been in the workplace for many years, he is naturally not worried that Xu Chen will completely mess up.
If he were to give random orders or refuse to accept the commercials, it would be easy to deal with it and just go straight to the client.
I'm afraid that he will deliberately wear small shoes and make some corrections that seem correct but are actually unnecessary.
Customers usually don’t understand very well and may be deceived by him...
But as I cooperated with the revisions and stayed up late and worked overtime, I was afraid that the hidden profits from the production of this commercial would be gone.
……
Li Fengfeng thought this and gave him a smile first.
Xu Chen looked very polite:
"Mr. Li didn't fall anywhere, did he? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
Li Fengfeng's fat face trembled:
"It's okay... I'm thick and it doesn't matter if I fall.
No need to go to the hospital, don’t delay the project. ”
Xu Chen didn't want to stick to this matter for too long, mainly because he didn't want to waste time.
In addition, he had other plans for Li Fengfeng...
"Since there is nothing else, let's set off and don't delay the project.
A misunderstanding is a misunderstanding, and work is work. We are all Party B, so we should finish the affairs of Party A’s customers first. ”
Li Fengfeng blinked his little eyes:
"Teacher Xu Chen is right! Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings!"
Sun Amy and Chen Xiaolong looked at each other, their hearts filled with apprehension and doubt.
Xu Chen looked at the two people behind him, and Li Fengfeng introduced:
"These are two of our colleagues from Heijue Marketing, following up on Renhe's project execution together this time."
"Hello, Teacher Xu Chen, I am designer Sun Amy."
"Hello, Teacher Xu Chen, I am Account Manager Chen Xiaolong."
With that said, the two of them each took out their business cards and handed them over with both hands.
When Li Fengfeng saw it, he took out his business card from his arms.
Xu Chen politely took them one by one with both hands and looked at them seriously but briefly.
He also took out his business card and handed it over with both hands...
At this moment, two people came up from behind.
Li Fengfeng looked up and shrank back in fear. Behind him, Sun Amy and Chen Xiaolong also looked fearful.
Xu Chen looked back and saw that it was Teacher Fang Jun and Zhao Feng, who was tall and thick and had a horizontal face.
"Brother Chen." Zhao Feng shouted angrily, and then looked up and down at Li Fengfeng maliciously.
Fang Jun had no expression on his face and explained in a low voice:
"Brother Bing is afraid of trouble, so he asked Zhao Feng to follow us."
Xu Chen was speechless and said to Zhao Feng:
"Go back, it's okay!"
Zhao Feng: "Brother Chen, I just need to stay with you. I won't get in your way."
Xu Chen turned around and patted Zhao Feng on the shoulder:
"It's okay, I'll send a message to Brother Bing later."
Zhao Feng frowned and thought for a while: "Okay, I'll listen to Brother Chen first."
With that said, he turned to leave, but his face was full of anger, and his eyes sideways glanced at Li Fengfeng with a threatening meaning.
Li Fengfeng lowered his plump head and dared not raise his small eyes.
But when he caught a glimpse of Zhao Feng leaving from the corner of his eye, he was instantly relieved and gave Xu Chen a wretched and ugly smile.
Xu Chen pointed to the side:
"This is our company's strategy director, Mr. Fang Junfang."
Li Fengfeng hurriedly came forward politely: "Hello, Teacher Fang."
Fang Jun remained expressionless as he also exchanged business cards with Li Fengfeng and the other three.
"Then Teacher Xu and Teacher Fang, let's go. It will take some time to drive to the studio."
Xu Chen smiled and nodded without saying anything else.
Chen Xiaolong walked into the cab and turned on the engine and the air conditioner in the car.
Li Fengfeng staggered a little when he walked. He might have just fallen on his fat butt, which still left him with some hidden injuries.
He opened the back door of the Odyssey, and Amy Sun got on the bus first and sat down in the last row.
Xu Chen and Fang Jun then took the "boss seats" in the second row.
Li Fengfeng got into the passenger seat and tilted his buttocks slightly to one side, looking a little funny.
……
The studio is in Haizhu District, and it takes 40 minutes to drive there including traffic jams.
The atmosphere inside the car was a little strange because of what happened before getting in the car.
Li Fengfeng, who was very good at pleasing people, was embarrassed and didn't say much. Xu Chen was too lazy to respond and closed his eyes to fall asleep. In the middle, the phone vibrated, and Director Feng Siriang sent several press releases again, asking Xu Chen to help check and confirm.
……
Forty minutes later, the white Odyssey drove into an old factory area.
This was originally an unknown old factory, but it was later transformed into a creative park with many photo studios, design studios, etc.
Fang Jun still felt a little fresh, so he looked around.
The general layout of this factory area still has the feel of a "state-owned factory", and it still feels familiar to Fang Jun.
However, after being transformed into a creative park, the cafes, literary bookstores, and exhibition halls reveal a different artistic atmosphere, which is also a huge contrast.
Fang Jun looked at Xu Chen:
"Can you tell your dad to renovate and renovate the factory in the future to make it look more modern?"
Xu Chen smiled:
"Okay! When the time comes, take out a factory and open a coffee shop, and let Teacher Fang Jun be the boss."
Fang Jun: "One factory is still too big, but I can open one on the first floor of the complex."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
She thought for a while and then said: "It's better not to open a cafe, but to open it as a bar!
Your dad also likes to drink, so just stock up on Guojiao, Maotai, etc. that he likes to drink..."
Xu Chen: "I also stock up on some of Teacher Fang Jun's favorite drinks..."
……
The two of them chatted one after another. Li Fengfeng in the front row blinked his eyes and felt that he had captured some amazing vocabulary.
What? Does your family run a factory?
There is actually a large factory area? Can I open a bar?
It won't be as big as a creative park, right?
What kind of family? !
……
A few minutes later, Odyssey stopped at the door of a studio with a big sign hanging above:
"Infinite Film and Television Studio".
Two or three people walked out of it, and they met a middle-aged man with long hair and tortoiseshell glasses, with an artistic look on his face.
After several people got off the car, Li Fengfeng introduced:
"This is Teacher Xu Chen...
This is the director, teacher Zhu Xiaoming. ”
Xu Chen met the director politely, and Zhu Xiaoming looked up at Xu Chen with a surprised look on his face.
"I had only heard Teacher Xu Chen's voice on a conference call before, but I didn't expect... that she is so young!"
Xu Chen smiled: "The director is pretty much what I imagined. He looks very senior and professional at first glance."
The director smiled, obviously very pleased with it.
He raised his hand and gave way:
"Teacher Xu, Mr. Li, let's go in!
The scenery is all set up, let’s go check it out! ”……
Under the guidance of the director, several people took the elevator to the large studio on the second floor.
As soon as we entered, we saw the actual shooting scene set up.
Xu Chen glanced around, but frowned...
The shooting scenes were all confirmed in the plan before, and they were all based on the shooting plan given by Xu Chen.
The whole is a virtual white space.
White stone pillars, blue pools, white ribbons... During the actual shooting, there will also be some white dove elements.
In the layout of the scene, all the elements are there, with a large green screen behind it.
During post-production, the image will be keyed out.
The director said:
"The current layout has been confirmed with Mr. Li. Teacher Xu Chen took a look at it and pushed it forward if there was no problem."
Without saying a word, Xu Chen walked to the set and looked down at the core scene of the "pool".
This pool is also the most important shot.
The two spokespersons will have an important set of shots in the pool.
Xu Chen: "The shape of this pool is not in the plan I was given."
The director was stunned: "Ah? I confirmed this with Mr. Li."
He paused: "I also know the original plan, which was a leaf-shaped pool.
But later Heijue received feedback that the shape of the leaves did not look good in the picture, so he changed it to the current artistic oval shape. ”
Xu Chen looked at Li Fengfeng:
"Mr. Li, it seems that this change has not been confirmed with me."
Li Fengfeng blinked his little eyes, but secretly said something bad.
Sure enough, he started to find trouble. It seems that this teacher Xu Chen is not easy to deal with. He still holds a grudge for what happened in the morning.
Li Fengfeng narrowed his eyes, but turned to look at the designer Sun Amy on the side:
"Amy, what's going on with this modification?"
Sun Amy was startled, blinked and looked at Li Fengfeng.
She was thinking:
Isn't this what Mr. Li asked you to modify?
You said that the leaf shape is too ugly, meaningless, and affects the beauty of the picture...
Seeing that Amy Sun did not respond, Li Fengfeng looked at Xu Chen with a smile:
“The designer did things haphazardly and may not have paid attention to this detail.”
Ten thousand grass and mud horses rolled through Sun Amy's heart, but somehow she took the blame...
Li Fengfeng continued:
"The shape of this pool is not very important, right?
I just took a look, and it seems that this shape will look better in the lens!
I don’t think it’s in the way…”
Xu Chen frowned, his expression not very good.
Li Fengfeng looked up at the director and motioned for him to add a few words.
The director thought for a while and then said:
"Purely speaking from the composition of the picture, the current shape of the pool does look better in photos, and it can also echo the surrounding white pillars and the ribbon above.
The original leaf shape is indeed a bit abrupt and difficult to integrate with other elements. ”
Xu Chen frowned, but still explained seriously:
"The script plan I sent was reviewed and confirmed with the client. The basic screen elements involved cannot be easily changed."
Li Fengfeng put on a smile:
"I don't think it's that serious. It's just like a pool."
Amy Sun and Chen Xiaolong looked at each other and seemed to be discussing something with their eyes.
In fact, they both now feel that this "Teacher Xu Chen" has begun to deliberately cause trouble.
Especially in Sun Amy's view, the shape of the pool is indeed irrelevant.
From a professional perspective as a designer, when shooting a commercial, you must of course take care of the aesthetics of the picture.
Although Sun Amy hates Li Fengfeng, Mr. Li's modification of this picture still makes some sense. The current shape of the pool is indeed very beautiful in the camera picture.
Xu Chen thought for a while and said, "Is my previous plan available here?"
Director: "Yes, on the computer."
A few minutes later, several people squatted in front of a table.
Xu Chen opened the previous plan and explained:
“My plan is relatively short and only involves core elements.
The purpose is not to cause too much interference to the director's work, but also to give the director more creative space.
But every core element in the plan is purposeful and cannot be changed easily. ”
