Today is National Day, and it is also the day when Bai Xingjian's planned IP amusement park starts construction.
The current main task of the construction team is to build the venues needed for "Squid Game".
The purpose of building this first is actually very simple, just to be able to put it into use as soon as possible.
After all, there are already hundreds of people waiting to be extras in "Squid Game".
The IP "Squid Game" was naturally planned by Bai Xingjian into his IP amusement park.
After all, the relevant venues required for "Squidward Game" can be opened to the public after filming is completed, and the playability is even much higher than that of "The Truman Show" conceived by Bai Xingjian.
Looking at the construction team who were fully engaged in their work, Qiu Weirui asked Bai Xingjian: "So you still plan to insist on letting the Corian people star in the main lineup of "Squid Game"?"
When asked this question, Qiu Weirui looked a little worried.
Obviously, she was quite worried about Bai Xingjian's choice.
"Ah? Shirakami, are you planning to let a Korean be the protagonist of "Squid Game"?"
When Ye Xuan heard this, her eyes widened and she looked at Bai Xingjian in disbelief.
Feng Shiqi's current state is almost the same as Ye Xuan's.
Because she had never heard Bai Xingjian discuss this aspect before.
So when I heard that Bai Xingjian planned to let Corian people star in the main lineup of "Squid Game", it was inevitable to be a little surprised.
""Squid Game" is different from "Hurry Up". It is an online drama, and it is quite large in scale. It may not be broadcast in China."
Bai Xingjian said with a playful smile: "When a film and television drama is destined not to be broadcast in China, do you think there are still actors willing to star in it?"
As soon as these words came out, Feng Shiqi, Qiu Weirui and Ye Xuan couldn't help but be stunned.
In fact, there are still many, right?
After all, you are Bai Xingjian!
This idea came to the three of them almost at the same time.
But no one said it, so as not to make Bai Xingjian float up.
"'Squid Game' can't be released in China, so why are you still filming it?" Ye Xuan asked in confusion.
"Perhaps it's because Ajian you plan to use "Squid Game" to develop foreign markets?" Feng Shiqi also said tentatively.
Qiu Weirui nodded, her thoughts were exactly the same as Feng Shiqi's.
And this is indeed the case. Bai Xingjian said with a smile: "Yes, since it can't be broadcast in China, then it can be broadcast abroad. Anyway, you have to walk the road yourself."
Hearing this, Feng Shiqi, Qiu Weirui and Ye Xuan were all a little silent.
The road is indeed made, but there seems to be no one in China who takes the opposite direction like you, right?
Others only plan to consider foreign markets after the things they shoot cannot be broadcast in China.
You haven't even started filming yet, so you just assumed that it can't be broadcast in China and are anchored in foreign markets?
Ye Xuan, who had not read the detailed script of "Squid Game", couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked:
"So what is the script of "Squid Game"? Judging from the documents Wei Rui gave me before, isn't this a film and television drama that brings the audience back to childhood games? Why is this kind of heartwarming content popular in China? Will it not be broadcast?”
Feng Shiqi and Qiu Weirui also focused their attention on Bai Xingjian, and they were extremely curious about it.
And Bai Xingjian did not show off, and said very straightforwardly: "Let me tell you this, the game in "Squid Game" is equivalent to a battle royale game type. Participants who lose the game will be executed to death. Elimination, this will lead to a lot of violent, bloody, shocking elements, you should be able to understand now, right?”
"No wonder."
"Then it's true."
"I understand now."
After listening to Bai Xingjian's explanation, Feng Shiqi, Qiu Weirui and Ye Xuan instantly understood.
"In this case, wouldn't it be very thankless to shoot "Squid Game"?"
Ye Xuan asked with some confusion: "Bai Shen, have you been very free recently? Why do you want to spend so much time filming "Squid Game"? Isn't it better to film other things?"
When Bai Xingjian heard this, he didn't want to speak anymore.
Why was he so anxious to make Squidward?
"You can go on your own."
Although Ye Xuan was the main investor in Bai Xingjian IP Amusement Park, Bai Xingjian still didn't give her a good look.
Such a scene also made Feng Shiqi and Qiu Weirui laugh a little.
This made Ye Xuan confused for a while.
She pestered the two of them for a while and finally learned the reason from their mouths.
Then Ye Xuan stopped talking much and just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"Looking at it this way, during the filming of "Squid Game", you will probably be hit by another wave of public opinion."
Qiu Weirui looked at Bai Xingjian and said with a somewhat narrowed look.
"Have I not suffered enough from public opinion lately? I'm used to it."
Bai Xingjian smiled mockingly to himself, not caring at all about this matter.
And he also had certain expectations in his heart about some things that would happen in the future.
"Squid Game" did not hire domestic actors to star, but went to great lengths to cast Koreans. I can't imagine how the marketing accounts will arrange Bai Xingjian.
If you exclude nationality and other factors, it would probably be considered light.
"And it seems that you can't come forward to explain before "Squid Game" is broadcast, otherwise those who blame it will probably get worse."
Ye Xuan also expressed her own opinions.
"That's true."
Bai Xingjian nodded, "But of course there are disadvantages and advantages to this. When "Squid Game" is broadcast, the audience will be able to understand why I am like this. When they face me again, they will definitely Very guilty.”
As he talked, Bai Xingjian almost wanted to laugh.
Feng Shiqi laughed out loud.
"Then when do you plan to go to Coria for casting?" Feng Shiqi asked.
"Now that the venue is being set up, casting really needs to be put on the agenda."
Bai Xingjian said thoughtfully: "Maybe it will be in the next few days."
"Do you need any help? For example, contacting the actors or something?" Qiu Weirui asked. "Should I say it or not, I really need some help from you in this regard."
Bai Xingjian nodded, not pretending that he was good at everything.
The main reason is that he doesn't know much about Kaoriya's entertainment industry. Although he already has several favorite candidates, Bai Xingjian really doesn't know how to contact these people.
And with Yehua Entertainment's current relationship network, it would probably be difficult to contact those people.
"Okay, we'll discuss it in detail then."
Qiu Weirui smiled and nodded, took out her mobile phone and started to contact relevant people.
The first meeting between the four of them ended after lunch.
On the way back to the car, Ye Xuan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, couldn't help but sigh: "Is this Bai Xingjian? I feel like he is too unreal!"
"Ah? Is there anything untrue about this? Isn't Bai Xingjian also a human being?" Qiu Weirui expressed that it was difficult to understand Ye Xuan's emotion.
Ye Xuan clasped her fingers and explained: "You don't know it until you see it, but you will be shocked when you see it. Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi are not very photogenic. They are so amazing in real life." The level is much higher than that on the screen, but that's it. Bai Xingjian is actually so talented, and some of his ideas are so unimaginable that ordinary people can't match them.
This book was recently updated in ##六@@九@@书@@!! Updated!
Is this true? Not true at all, right? ”
Hearing these words, Qiu Weirui laughed out loud, "You just have too high a filter for Bai Xingjian. After all, Bai Xingjian is still an ordinary person like us. There is no need to be too mythical. Your One mouthful of "White God" makes me feel a little numb. ”
"Ah? Then didn't you remind me earlier?" Ye Xuan's mouth suddenly became deflated.
"How can I remind you when you are screaming so hard?"
Qiu Weirui smiled, but quickly changed her voice and said: "This is just my feeling. Maybe Bai Xingjian, the person involved, sounds very comfortable. After all, he is a man after all, and men enjoy others. Especially when you are respected by a beautiful woman like you, it should be very comfortable, right?”
These words made Ye Xuan's face turn a little red, "Maybe?"
Having said that, Ye Xuan also made up her mind and said: "It seems that the next time she meets Bai Xingjian, she has to be careful."
……
On the third day of the National Day holiday, Phoenix Pictures sent follow-up text messages to the 600 previous recruits.
Then many people started to get confused.
"Going to Beijing to be an extra? Are you crazy? It's really hard for college students to find a job now, but you can't give up on yourself like this, right? Is there any future for extras? It's not stable at all. You might as well go to your cousin Work as a clerk in a new milk tea shop in town ”
In a small town in a southwest city, Xiaofang, who graduated from college this year but has not yet found a job, was immediately rejected after she expressed her thoughts to her old father.
"So being a milk tea shop employee has a bright future?" Xiaofang asked in dissatisfaction.
"At least it's safer, right? Isn't working in your cousin's milk tea shop more secure than going to the capital alone?"
Xiaofang's father didn't give in at all.
Xiaofang's mother also spoke at this time, "Nowadays, everyone says that young people should not aim too high and be down-to-earth. The capital is really too far away from us, and do we have any relatives there who can help take care of us?" Come on, Fangfang, you are only 22 years old. You studied in universities in the province. Now you suddenly have to go to the capital. How can your father and I feel relieved? "
"If you were a son, I would let you go out and wander around. If you don't, I would break your legs."
Xiaofang's father continued: "But the problem is that you are not a son. You are a daughter. You suddenly went to a big city like Beijing. What if you are cheated?"
Xiaofang almost laughed out loud when she heard this, "Dad, it's the 21st century now. How can I still be so easily deceived? I'm not a little girl anymore."
When Xiaofang's father heard this, he laughed angrily at his daughter, "Will no one lie to you in the 21st century? Your idea is simply too naive!"
"This is the idea that college students who have not yet entered society have. They think that today's society is still full of good people."
Xiaofang’s mother couldn’t help but laugh at some of her daughter’s ideas.
"Harm, I'm really convinced."
Xiaofang covered her forehead and said: "Phoenix Pictures is a legitimate company, how can this be deceived? If they still dare to deceive others, then it must be their own sign that will be smashed!"
Having said this, Xiaofang also became a little excited, "Although I went to Beijing to only do extra work, Phoenix Pictures said they would provide us with food and accommodation. Although it is not free, the price is definitely Is your conscience worth it?”
"If it's not free, how much is it?" Xiaofang's mother asked.
Xiaofang's father also looked at Xiaofang intently.
Xiaofang's right hand was fully unfolded and placed flat in front of her body: "Fifty-one days, it will be deducted from the salary."
"Phoenix Pictures is so conscientious? That's the capital." Xiaofang's father said in disbelief.
Xiaofang's mother also looked surprised at this moment and asked: "Really or not? Is Phoenix Pictures really so conscientious?"
The reason why the two elders are so opposed to Xiaofang going to the capital is that in addition to the important factor of safety, the other factor that worries them the most is the cost.
Beijing is no ordinary city.
Every inch of land in that place is very valuable, and a floor tile is estimated to cost tens of thousands. If you go to work there, your wages may not be as much as your daily expenses.
But as soon as Xiaofang said this, she no longer had any worries in this regard!
Seeing the dazed and doubtful expressions of her parents, Xiaofang smiled and explained:
"Let me tell you this, Phoenix Pictures is a company founded by Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi. Do you know them? He is the one who sang "Above the Moon", "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond" and "Flying Free" A male and female group, don’t you two often listen to their songs? And the ringtones all use their songs.”
"Ah? Phoenix Pictures is a company run by the two of them?"
"So it's them? That's probably trustworthy. After all, Phoenix Yu Fei is also a great combination."
Xiaofang's father and Xiaofang's mother suddenly realized that they were very familiar with the combination of Phoenix Yu Fei, so they began to feel that Phoenix Pictures was starting to be reliable.
"But aren't Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi celebrities? Why did they suddenly do such a thing?"
Although he was quite reassured about Phoenix Yu Fei, Xiaofang's father was still a little suspicious.
Xiaofang is naturally very clear about this, "It's not because a certain artist under their company said something that shouldn't be said some time ago. Bai Xingjian and Feng Shiqi's companies are all helping to cause these things." That artist is looking for compensation.”
"Is that so?" Xiaofang's father nodded, no longer doubting anything.
Xiaofang's mother also asked her daughter one last time: "Are you so willing to be an extra? Are you really not considering other jobs?"
Xiaofang sighed and said: "If you can't find a particularly suitable job, who would be willing to be an extra? But even though you are an extra, the place of work is in the capital after all, and Phoenix Pictures also arranged I’ve got room and board, so even if the job isn’t great, it’s still a good experience. I’m a young girl in my twenties and I haven’t even left the province yet.”
As she talked, Xiaofang started to feel a little ashamed.
Xiaofang's mother sneered: "You are still a girl in your twenties. You are already a big girl. When will you bring a boyfriend back? It is said that Xiao Wang from the next door family is pregnant now. She will have a baby at the end of the year. Married.”
When Xiaofang heard the words, she turned a deaf ear and went straight back to her room and started to pack her luggage.
The National Day holiday is not over yet, and she will go all the way north. (End of chapter)
