Chapter 535: Praising and criticizing is selling, applause is playing tricks


Zhang Li and Liu Wenwu argued for a long time, but neither could convince the other.

The key is that you can't do anything, it's a full martial arts exercise, so you can only stop.

Liu Wenwu also realized at this moment that it was useless to argue with Zhang Li, because Zhang Li came with Hu Mei today.

And Zhang Li also realized that he should have been watching, but now he was arguing with the producer, and he was a little over the top.

After the two were noisy, the scene was a bit cold.


At this time Zhou Yan smiled and said, "You two are tired, let's have a drink of water."

Hearing Zhou Yan's words, Liu Wenwu and Zhang Li both laughed sheepishly.

"Zhou Dao, let you laugh." Zhang Li said.


Zhou Yan smiled and waved his hand, "Director Zhang was joking, I benefited a lot from the discussion you just had. But, today is for the director of "Yongzheng Dynasty", so we all got together, so let's talk about "Yongzheng Dynasty" "Dynasty"

Liu Wenwu also looked at Hu Mei, "Yes, Director Hu, let's talk about the topics we talked about last time."

The last time we met, Liu Wenwu gave Hu Mei some test questions and asked her to think about how to deal with several scenes.

Hu Mei nodded, "Then I will say one by one in order. Thirteen brother Xiang Xiang took out the letter from Jiugo to Ren Bo'an. Ren Boan was frightened and could only donate. This scene ..."


After that, the scene became normal, that is, Hu Mei was telling her thoughts and feelings about this play.


She was really well prepared and her descriptions were very detailed. She even used some of her own touches in some places and made small changes to the script.

In Zhou Yan's opinion, Hu Mei's performance was not outstanding, but it was not bad either and was quite satisfactory.

In terms of ability alone, Hu Mei is definitely not as good as Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, and it is not as good as Zhang Li who came to the scene today.


When Zhang Li and Liu Wenwu discussed with Liu Wenwu, Zhang Li was very talented. Not only the theory was solid, but also many thoughts.


If Zhou Yan was asked to choose, he would definitely choose Zhang Li to be the director. Even if Zhang Li didn't have time now, he would be willing to wait for a while.

Moreover, Zhang Li is not completely without time. Liu Wenwu has decided to invite Zhang Lilai as a plan for "Yongzheng Dynasty".


When Hu Mei complained, Liu Wenwu did not intervene throughout the process, but when Hu Mei finished speaking, he began a criticism mode.


Zhang Li was so angry that he was ready to debate with Liu Wenwu, but was pulled by Hu Mei.


Liu Wenwu didn't say a lot this time, and each scene was briefly said.


Then he looked at the time and said, "Zhang Dao, Hu Dao, today's will end like this."


Zhou Yan also looked at his watch. It was already half past ten, so he sent out an invitation, "You two, please stay and have dinner before leaving."

Hu Mei laughed, "No need to be polite, there is still something in the factory, we will go back now, it's not far away."


The atmosphere at the scene was not very good. After hearing Hu Mei's polite refusal, Zhou Yan did not force him to stay. He said with a smile, "Then I won't keep you two. Come on, I'll see you off."

……

After sending Hu Mei and Zhang Li away, Zhou Yan returned to Liu Heping's office again.


Liu Heping changed the water in his cup and said with a smile, "It seems that we have to talk to other alternative directors."

In Liu Heping's view, the situation today was so bad. Later, Liu Wenwu didn't keep Hu Mei for dinner, so he definitely didn't like Hu Mei.

But Liu Wenwu shook his head, "No, Hu Mei is good."


Liu Heping raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Are you going to set her up?"

"Well, that's what I thought."

"Uh ... the director settled is also a good thing." Although Liu Heping didn't understand, he didn't say anything.


Zhou Yan smiled beside him. He was not surprised at all. He discovered the day before yesterday that Liu Wenwu was a typical person who didn't mean what he said.

Although the scene just now was not good, he was actually quite satisfied with Hu Mei.

What Liu Wenwu was looking for was the director who could hear the opinions like Hu Mei. Instead, he wanted Zhang Lizang to be the director, and they had to quarrel every day.


……

Here Hu Mei and Zhang Li came out of the gate of the park. Hu Mei turned to look at the park and sighed, "It seems that this is yellow."


Hu Mei is very eager for the drama "Yongzheng Dynasty". She believes that she understands Yongzheng and is the best candidate to film this TV series.

Although she had no experience in the creation of historical drama before, she was very confident in watching the script.


Therefore, she was disappointed to see Liu Wenwu's attitude.


When he heard Hu Mei's words, Zhang Li, who had just quarreled with Liu Wenwu for a long time, said with a smile, "You're wrong, if Liu Wenwu doesn't want to use you, why should he criticize you? It's a idleman, he can still say you so unscrupulously, it should just decide to give you this. "


"Really?" Hu Mei was suspicious, "Didn't you say so to comfort me?"


Zhang Li rolled his eyes, "Why am I comforting you? Don't worry, go back and wait for news."

Hu Mei still didn't believe it, but Zhang Li said so confident that she was a bit uncertain.


Seeing her in a daze, Zhang Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, if I want to use you, there will be news soon."

Zhang Li is also familiar with the situation of "Yongzheng Dynasty". This drama has been prepared for a long time, and the script and director selection have been stuck for a long time.

Now the script is basically done. If the director is determined that the director is Hu Mei, then Liu Wenwu should soon be notified that it will not be delayed for too long.


...


In fact, Zhang Li's guess was correct. Even before Hu Mei got off work at night, she received a call from Liu Wenwu.

This time, Liu Wenwu was very polite and sincerely invited Hu Mei to be the director of "Yongzheng Dynasty" and hoped that Hu Mei could get into work as soon as possible. They still have a lot of work to do.

Hu Mei didn't expect the surprise to come so quickly. She didn't even wait for Liu Wenwu to finish speaking before she replied, "Mr. Liu, I can join the team immediately."

On the other end of the phone, Liu Wenwu laughed. It seemed that he had chosen the right director.

"In this case, come here tomorrow morning."


"Where to go?"

"The place where you are here today, for a long time, we will all work here."


After Liu Wenwu and Zhou Yan confirmed their cooperation, Zhou Yan directly arranged an additional floor for Liu Wenwu and the others for their office use.

There are not many things in the park now, that is, there are many places in office, let alone the first floor, it is no problem for them to use a building.


The office space is all on-site, and it is nothing more than adding some office equipment.

Liu Wenwu was naturally happy to have an office on one floor, and he was even more convinced that cooperating with Zhou Yan was the right thing to do.

If they do not cooperate with Zhou Yan, it is impossible for them to spend money to make such a large office location.


The key to Zhou Yan is very good here. Next to the Yanjing Film Academy and Yanjing Studio, it is not far from CCTV. It is convenient to do anything. Hu Mei was also very happy. Going to work there, it was only a few minutes away from her to work in her own factory. It was too convenient to have something to take care of at home.


"Okay, then I'll go there tomorrow morning."

"In this case, then I arrange a meeting tomorrow afternoon. Now some people in the crew, everyone can see a face, understand and know, and it is convenient for you to start your work later."


"Okay, Mr. Liu."

Hu Mei was relieved at the moment. She found that Liu Wenwu was more talkative than before, and she was quite imaginative.


……

When Liu Wenwu called Hu Mei, Zhou Yan was next to him.


After the two hung up the phone, Liu Wenwu laughed: "Zhou Dao, will you come to meet tomorrow afternoon?"


"Well, let me take a look." Zhou Yan nodded, it was just a matter of a few steps anyway.

"Do you notify Director Jiang, or do I notice?"


"You inform me."

There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!


"No problem. It's almost time to get off work. I'll go find him for dinner right away."

"Okay, you go find him, and I'll go back first."

"Well, go slowly."


Zhou Yan smiled, stood up and left the office.

After coming out, he didn't rush back, but went to the film department.


The first batch of students in Chinese opera cooperation has come to the studio for some days. Zhou Yan is going to see how they are.


He went to the editing workshop first. As soon as he arrived, he saw several people in the office discussing something together.

"Actually, our editing work is still mainly directed by the director. What the director wants, what we have to give." Editor Liu Hao said.


Sitting opposite him and laughed, "If the editor will only listen to others, what is the use of what is cut? Then we are not purely mixed? We listen to the director, do we have to listen to the system again? The filmmaker, after listening to the producer, is it going to listen to investors again?


"Of course you can make suggestions, but if the director doesn't adopt them, you can't change them. Otherwise, why don't you just shoot it yourself?" Liu Hao said.

At this time, Du Yuan, the director of the editing workshop, laughed and said, "This thing is not dead. You two have been fighting here for a long time. Do you really want to train Xiaolong to be your disciple? He is an actor, and there is a high probability that he will not care about editing in the future. "

Du Yuan was the director of "Raise the Red Lantern" and was also the editor of Chang'an Factory. It took a lot of effort for Zhou Yan to recruit her.

After she came here, she directly served as the director of the editing workshop of the film department.

"Ahem." Zhou Yan said at the right time, "What are you talking about?"

Seeing Zhou Yan, Du Yuan stunned his eyes and said with a smile, "Nothing, just chat, how did you come?"


Most directors don't like Shu Xiang's theory.

Most directors actually think that the so -called editor is a knife in the hands of the director. The director let them do whatever they do.


Although Zhou Yan respects the editor, Du Yuan believes that he is the director who will not care about the editor.


In the post-production process of Zhou Yan's movies, the editor can be said to have no autonomy and no sense of achievement.

Ordinary directors, when editing, will mention their needs to the editor and let the editor try to realize it, but Zhou Yan is very direct. What he wants has already been formed in his mind, and what the editor has to do is Just cut out the films according to his instructions and glue them together in order.

The instructions he given are often accurate.


This means that editing for Zhou Yan only requires a skilled editor. If Zhou Yan is not tired, he can do this job by himself. Anyway, Zhou Yan has spent a long time in the editing workshop, so there is no problem in editing.

Back then, when Zhou Yan was at Chang'an Factory, he worked for many people in their editing workshop and also worked as a hands-on worker.

Just imagine, in the eyes of such a director, how important is the editor?

Zhou Yan knew that Du Yuan was afraid that he had opinions on the ring, and he didn't say anything.


To be honest, he didn't care about the idea of ​​bouquet, and a good director knew how to get along with the editor. Different directors need different editors, and each person's cooperation model is different.


Some are suitable for Shu Xiang, and some are suitable for Liu Hao.

His eyes swept across the faces of Shu Xiang and Liu Hao, and then looked at Duan Yihong, "Duan Long, how do you feel in the editing workshop these days?"

Duan Yihong smiled and said, "Director Zhou, I feel very good. Only in the editing workshop can I really feel how wonderful the completion of a movie is, and it is also convenient to watch movies here."

In fact, Yi Hong didn't experience much of the editing process during this period. After all, there is not much work in the editing workshop now, but he has seen a lot of materials shot by the studio before, including those shot by Zhou Yan.

In addition to the footage, there are also some documentaries from the scene.

Every day watching these materials and documentary, Duan Yihong feels very fulfilling. He feels that seeing these materials and documentary films are more interesting and more useful than they analyze those movies in schools every day.


For example, in a documentary, there are often directors' requirements or how to act as actors, which is a vivid and real performance class for him.


When he can often observe from the director's camera perspective and the documentary's third perspective, he has a more comprehensive understanding of the performance.

Zhou Yan nodded, "Internships in various workshops mainly allow you to better understand the complete process of a movie. As an actor, your learning will ultimately be implemented in performance. Don't worry about this, there will be internship opportunities in the future."

"Thank you Zhou Dao."


Zhou Yan patted his shoulder: "Do it well."


After speaking, Zhou Yan nodded with Du Yuan and turned away from the editing workshop.


Then he went to several workshops in succession and had a brief chat with students who were working on school-enterprise cooperation.

When he finally arrived at the makeup group, Zhou Yan was surprised to find that Zhang Ziyi was sitting next to Lin Juan.


"Zhang Ziyi, why are you here?"

Lin Juan explained from the side, "Brother Zhou Yan, Ziyi is the second batch of school-enterprise cooperation students in their school."

The first batch of Zhou Yan was concerned about the list of Chinese opera schools, and he had never asked the second batch.


There are batches of students cooperating with schools and enterprises, and there are many things to do in the studio. It is impossible for him to intervene in everything.

But he didn't expect that Zhang Ziyi would come to film "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin".

He said curious, "When did Chen Dao turn on it?"


"It should start in June." Zhang Ziyi replied.

"Then do you want to join the group in advance?" Zhou Yan asked.

Zhang Ziyi suddenly lowered her head and bit her lips, "I don't know yet."


I don't know ...


Zhou Yan looked up at Zhang Ziyi with interest. Can this girl reject Chen Kaige?


If Zhang Ziyi can really reject Chen Kaige, Zhou Yan will look down on her. (End of chapter)
