Chapter 544 The regular meeting of the Youth Leader Association
When Deng Chao was sent home by his assistant, Sun Li was sitting on the head of the bed and applying a facial mask to read a book.
Deng Chao pulled off his tie in a little annoyed and threw his coat on the bedside table. Seeing that Sun Li turned a blind eye to him, he deliberately walked around in front of Sun Li with one hand.
Sun Li rolled her eyes quietly, turned around and threw it to the back of her head.
Deng Chao took two steps back when he saw this, and threw himself onto the bed with a run-up, then turned over and started thrusting the carp, but he could thrust up every time, only smashing the spring mattress up and down.
"Oh~"
Although this vibration amplitude was not enough to make Sun Li feel uncomfortable, she also knew that she would not speak out anymore. The man didn't know what to do, so she had to put down the book helplessly and sighed: "Can you be more mature?"
"Of course!"
Deng Chao immediately sat up cross-legged, held his cheek with one hand, posed as a thinker, raised his eyebrows at Sun Li, "How about it, do you have the style of a great director?"
"You can talk about it first."
Sun Li habitually hit him, then frowned and asked, "What's wrong? You can't have a quarrel with Xu Kun, right?"
"No."
Deng Chao sighed and said, "I'm embarrassed to say hello to him, how could I have the chance to have a quarrel."
To be honest, he often feels a strong sense of frustration recently, thinking that when he was filming "The Young Emperor", he was the absolute C position.
At that time, Xu Kun was not as good as him, his background and identity were not as good as him, and even his acting skills... Well, everyone was almost as good as the acting skills at that time.
Anyway, he was the Deng Chao who was the dominant.
Who could have thought that in just a few years, Xu Kun would become an existence that he could not reach?
It would be fine if Deng Chao kept showing off his bad luck. The problem is that he worked very hard, and even relied on the huge influence of "Struggle" and later came from behind to suppress Huang Xiaoming.
Since it’s not a matter of hard work, it’s a matter of the track!
So the idea of becoming a director came to mind.
But just now, Sun Li said, "Go to win the Venetian actor first," and suddenly exposes the emperor's new clothes - even in the actors track, he is already significantly behind.
Feeling Deng Chao's loss, Sun Li moved over and hugged his arm, put her head on his shoulder and said, "Don't always think about comparing with Director Xu. There are always a few people in every era that no one else can catch up with, and you are now better than most people."
After a pause, he said, "Of course if you really want to make a movie, I will definitely support you."
Deng Chao raised his hand and gently stroked her hair, and after a while he let out a breath of turbid air, he said, "It will take two years to shoot me now. Now I have no idea. If I don't shoot, I will be really unwilling to accept it."
Sun Li nodded slightly and asked carefully, "Then you and Director Xu..."
"Let's do it for now." Deng Chao leaned against Sun Li and lay down, looked up at the ceiling and said, "I can't overcome the hurdle in my heart now - it would be fine if he owes me what he owes me. The problem now is that I owed him, and it's likely that I won't pay it back."
………
Compared to Deng Chao who was determined to escape, Xu Kun was brave and would rather go forward that night, but he got up a little late the next day, and almost delayed his meeting at the China Film Association for Youth Leaders Association.
In just over ten days, all the relatives have reached the level of 100% and 100% of them. Although I can’t count on major issues, the Youth Leaders Association finally has some errands.
Six people closed the door and held a meeting, and some people prepared tea, snacks and other things in advance.
There are five chief and vice presidents in total. The ones that come out are nothing more than Xu Kun’s gold medal producer Chen Xuebin. Chen Chen has now named the secretary-general in the Youth Director Association, so he is naturally qualified to attend the meeting.
After the meeting began, Xu Kun announced two things first: First, the Youth Leaders Association will form a tradition of regular meetings in the future, which is tentatively set to twice a month.
You can take leave, but you must take time to read the meeting minutes afterwards to understand the latest developments within the association - the shorthand clerks are already recruiting.
The second thing is that the Youth Leadership Association has reached a strategic cooperation with a famous accounting firm in Beijing. In the future, not only within the association, but also within the film and television works invested by the association will be financially audited by the accountants stationed by the firm.
When Xu Kun said this, Ning Hao continued: "In the past two days, I have already transferred the accountants of my colleague's office and reviewed Yang Qing's early advance payment. There is basically no big problem - in addition, the cost of "Nightclub" was initially calculated to be 2.4 million..."
"2.4 million?"
When Liu Haibo heard this, he couldn't help but question: "This little money is probably not enough to pay the pay for several starring actors, right?"
As a result, everyone except him, was calm. Ning Hao explained: "As long as the book is good, there will always be people who are willing to lower their pay for acting. In addition, Director Xu wants to make a guest appearance, many people would rather play as zero pay for acting, and hope to make this good relationship."
Jia Zhangke and Li Yu nodded in agreement, which made the bangs, who had never enjoyed such treatment, look as thin as a thorn in the throat.
"It's mentioned 4 million."
At this time, Xu Kun said seriously: "I mention the starring pay. Sometimes the free ones are the most expensive. After all, this is the first project after the establishment of our Youth Leadership Association. I would rather spend more than make sure there are no mistakes."
Anyway, the money was raised by him. Since he took the initiative to ask for an increase in investment, others naturally would not have any opinions.
The shooting cost of 4 million was soon approved unanimously. If nothing unexpected happens, after the Youth Guild Association officially listed on January 1, 2009, the money will be directly transferred to the crew's account.
After talking about "Nightclub", Jia Zhangke talked about Han Jie's latest updates. According to him, Han Jie has found inspiration in his hometown and is now actively collecting relevant materials. It is expected that the script will be produced in the first month of the year.
However, considering the time for subsequent improvement and revision, it is estimated that it will take the second half of the year to collect and shoot.
When he said this, Xu Kun breathed a sigh of relief and nodded quietly, "The most important thing for new people and new works is actually the script, and it is necessary to spend more effort to polish it."
Li Yu immediately took over the conversation and said, "So I hope the association can give priority to Jin Yimeng's script."
The most new ⊥Xiao⊥Shuo⊥9⊥⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥⊥!
As he said that, he handed several copies to everyone one by one.
It is obvious that before Xu Kun arrived, she had already communicated with everyone about this, so everyone did not find it strange at all.
"Look back and read the script carefully and solve the other things first." Xu Kun accepted the script but did not open it, but turned his attention to Chen Xuebin.
Chen Xuebin hesitated and said, "There is some progress on the side of Happy Twist, but..."
Liu Haibo has been busy preparing for "Iron Pear Flower" recently and has not participated much in the association's affairs, so Chen Xuebin is responsible for the connection on the side of Happy Twist.
"Just what?"
Liu Haibo is not attentive to work, and the supporting actor is still very hardworking.
"I see they have been excerpting plots from online novels. Will the scripts produced in this way have copyright issues?"
"What do they say?"
"They said they would try to integrate the jokes, and the routines in the novel were too smooth. If they were replaced by movies, they would definitely have climaxes, troughs, ambush and reversals. After adding these, it would be the same as the excerpted novels."
Melting the stalk?
Xu Kun frowned slightly when he heard this. He asked Yan Fei and Peng Damo to read the novel of rebirth on the Internet. He hoped that the two could explore their ideas, but directly incorporated the plot of the other person's novels into it...
Is it because he was a little bit enhancing, or is it that there was a problem with "Charlotte's Troubles"?
Xu Kun finally decided to wait until he had time, so he pulled the two of them to sit down and chat to see where the problem actually appeared.
But it is impossible recently. It is estimated that he would not have taken time before the New Year. Moreover, the two are still copying and have not written a script, so some things cannot be concluded.
Let's talk about it after the New Year.
After chatting about the script, everyone discussed the issue of member recruitment after the association was established.
Xu Kun means that members are divided into two types, one is to register a member. This way, you can successfully register by simply filling in information on the website, and then browse some announcements and articles issued by the Youth Leaders Association.
The other type is formal membership. You need to produce enough outstanding works or be recognized by the senior management of the association in order to obtain the status of a formal membership.
In addition, the top three graduates of each director's director department will be granted the official membership by default.
Formal members are eligible to participate in various activities organized by the association, have the right to submit scripts directly to the association's senior management and apply for relevant funds, and are eligible to run for president and vice president in the future.
Others agree with this division method, but Jia Zhangke sang the opposite tune again.
His reason is also very simple. After this division, it is obvious that formal members will be more likely to obtain resources. Wouldn't this violate the core purpose of the Youth Leaders Association to simply eliminate the "newcomers"?
Xu Kun didn't spoil him, and blocked him back with one sentence: "According to your standards, is Han Jie considered a newcomer? Is Jin Yimeng considered a newcomer? Is Yang Qing considered a newcomer?"
Seeing that Lao Jia didn't say anything, he said seriously: "The term "Jian Ba Newcomer is actually not suitable. In the future, our official statement will be changed to "helping young directors."
Our Youth Leadership Association is not a new Leadership Association. The purpose is to support young people. Only talent is the right way. If we forcefully require the other party not to have a "critical record", it is to lose the foundation and chase the end. ”
