Chapter 135 I am a tailor
Wu Ziniu is not without ideas for the choice of actors, but the actor market has been relatively chaotic in the past two years, and the pay gap between different actors is too large.
Most of the actors in the system are paid easily, with the highest salary being only one to two thousand a month. The main thing is secondment.
Some actors outside the system can actually ask for six figures when they open their mouths.
So Wu Ziniu is not completely able to decide on his own as to which actors he can use. It also depends on how much money Tomson will give him.
Zhou Yan didn't think too much about it. Although he didn't know how much money Tomson would invest in this movie, "Tree Hole" mainly focused on one Yao Xiang, and actors with a salary of less than one million would definitely have no problem.
After chatting with Wu Ziniu for an hour and declining Wu Ziniu’s invitation to stay for dinner, Zhou Yan stood up and left.
After leaving the Bayi Factory, Zhou Yan saw Jiang Xia waiting under the shade of the tree at the door.
"Teacher Zhou, you are out, are you going home now?"
Zhou Yan shook his head, "If you don't want to go back, let's go to Yanjing Studio."
"Is there a job at Yanjing Studio?"
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "I'll take you to have a meal."
The car drove to the entrance of Yanjing Factory, and outside the door Uncle Zhou was holding a book He came over to register Zhou Yan and the others. When Zhou Yan rolled down the window, Uncle Zhou saw it was Zhou Yan and said with a smile, "Hey, the shotgun has been replaced by a cannon. Let's get in the car."
Zhou Yan smiled. I gave Uncle Zhou a cigarette and said, "It's provided by the company. Can I register it?"
"Registering for what? It's not like I don't know him." Uncle Zhou smiled and waved his hand, and went to open the door again.
"Thank you."
Zhou Yan told Jiang Xia that he was here to have a meal, but of course it couldn't really be just to have a meal. Chen Kaige said that the film of "Farewell My Concubine" was almost finished, and he came to take a look.
He first went to the director's office. Only Wang Jun was there. When she heard that Zhou Yan was asking for Chen Kaige, she smiled and said, "Go to the editing workshop, which is probably right there."
Zhou Yan nodded. Head, ran to the editing workshop again, and sure enough Chen Kaige was there.
On the phone, Chen Kaige told Zhou Yan that the editing of "Farewell My Concubine" was almost complete, but when Zhou Yan arrived, he discovered that the dubbing had just been recorded and not all of it had been edited yet.
As for Zhou Yan's soundtrack, they will at least wait until the dubbing is completed before they start editing it.
The soundtrack of "Farewell My Concubine" has been recorded. One-third of the entire soundtrack is sampled ready-made music, one-third is written by Zhao Jiping, and the other third is composed by Zhou Yan Written.
Actually, this is beyond the scope of Zhou Yan's job. His job is "live music director". He only needs to worry about the scene and then assist Zhao Jiping later. There is no need to write it himself.
However, while chatting with Zhao Jiping, he wrote a few paragraphs. Once the two of them combined, they assigned tasks and divided the songs other than samples in half.
The soundtrack for "Farewell My Concubine" was all original by Zhou Yan. The passages written by him and Zhao Jiping also have similar tones. They all use elements of opera, and the melody is mainly in Xipi Erhuang or Siping tune. The creative technique uses a lot of tonal opposition and incorporates some elements of Western music.
These songs have already been produced, but after the editing work of "Farewell My Concubine" is completed, Zhao Jiping will definitely make another trip to Yanjing, and then make final adjustments and modifications to the soundtrack with Zhou Yan.
Chen Kaige took Zhou Yan to watch the edited content, and then said to Zhou Yan with a smile, "Director Zhou, look at this film from your professional perspective. Is there anything else that needs to be modified? "
Zhou Yan smiled. He knew Chen Kaige better now. Chen Kaige's words sounded very humble, but he must not take them seriously.
“When the movie has reached this point, there is nothing to criticize. Of course, if you have to ask me to pick two bones, I can’t pick two.”
Sure enough, when he heard Zhou Yan's words, the smile on Chen Kaige's face became even brighter. The reason why he said this to Zhou Yan was to get praise.
The two came out of the editing workshop. Chen Kaige talked about Zhou Yan's novel again, "The "Tree Hole" was so well written that it really shocked me. Do you want to shoot it yourself? If not, wait for me later. You're done here, let me take the photo."
Zhou Yan said with a smile, "Then you said it's too late."
"You want to take the photo yourself?" Chen Kaige said in surprise.
"It's not me, it's director Wu Ziniu from Bayi Studio. We've already almost negotiated."
Chen Kaige curled his lips and said, "It's better to give it to me. The road at Bayi Studio is narrower. They are good at filming military war scenes, but they may not be good at other things.”
Zhou Yan did not answer this question. In fact, even if "Tree Hole" was not given to Wu Ziniu, Zhou Yan would definitely not give it to Chen Kaige. He could imagine that if the novel was given to Chen Kaige, the two of them would quarrel every day, and they would never be able to repay it by then. Let Xu Feng come over and mediate from behind.
And when "Farewell My Concubine" comes out, Xu Feng may not be able to suppress Chen Kaige.
“Let’s work together again if we have the opportunity in the future.” Zhou Yan smiled.
Chen Kaige looked at the time and said, "It's almost time for lunch in the cafeteria. Let's go eat."
"Okay, I'll call someone first."
Chen Kaige asked in confusion, "Who is it?"
"My assistant."
Zhou Yan smiled, and then went to the main building to call Jiang Xia together.
Chen Kaige was actually quite envious of the fact that Zhou Yan had an assistant, and even muttered why Mr. Xu didn't assign him an assistant.
Of course, he just muttered casually to satisfy his cravings. He only had a film contract with Tomson. Unlike Zhou Yan's situation, it was of course impossible for Tomson to find an assistant for him.
As soon as the three of them arrived at the cafeteria, they heard someone calling them.
"Director Chen, Director Zhou, this way."
The two of them followed the sound and saw Ge You waving to them.
Besides Ge You there are two people, one is Xia Gang, the other... seems to be Feng Xiaogang.
“Let’s go over and have a look.” Chen Kaige said.
When they arrived, Xia Gang first said hello to Zhou Yan, and then took the initiative to introduce Zhou Yan, "Director Zhou, you may have never seen this person before. He is Feng Xiaogang, editor Feng, the screenwriter of "The Story of the Editorial Department"."
Then Xia Gang introduced Feng Xiaogang, "Xiaogang, this is Director Zhou Yan."
Feng Xiaogang smiled and took the initiative to shake hands with Zhou Yan, "Hello, Director Zhou, I have heard about it a long time ago. You’re famous. You filmed “The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly” which was released some time ago.”
Zhou Yan smiled and nodded, “It’s my humble work.”
“Zhou. Director, you are too modest. How can a movie with a box office of more than 20 million be a masterpiece? Although it is not as good as the 30 million box office of "Big Saba", it is still very good."
Hearing Feng Xiaogang's words, Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows. Although these words were compliments, they sounded a bit sinister. Does Feng Xiaogang have any opinions on himself, or is this just his speaking style?
As for the box office of "The Big Show", Zhou Yan didn't know it before. There are no formal channels for domestic box office statistics. Many data are wrong, and he didn't pay attention to it.
He smiled and did not look at Feng Xiaogang anymore, but looked at Xia Gang, "Director Xia, congratulations to you, the market has responded so well."
Xia Gang smiled and waved his hand. , "Well, it's not my fault alone. The main reason is that the script is well written and the leading actor is also well acted."
"You are too modest."
Then Zhou Yan said hello to Ge You again and said to Chen Kaige, "Master Kai, let's go get some food."
Ge You warmly invited, "After you have done the food, come over and share a table?"
Before Zhou Yan could say anything, Chen Kaige smiled and said, "Okay, we'll be here soon."
When Zhou Yan and the others went to prepare food, Xia Gang and the other two sat down again, and Feng Xiaogang looked at Zhou Yan Looking at their backs, he couldn't help but mutter, "You are famous at a young age, and your eyes are indeed tall."
Xia Gang raised his eyebrows and said nothing. He really didn't think Zhou Yan had tall eyes.
During the moment they were in contact, Xia Gang even felt that Feng Xiaogang was a little carried away.
The main reason is that "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" and "The Piano Boy" were released one after another, and the previous "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" performed very well at the box office, so they inevitably mentioned it often in private. "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly", after a long time, Feng Xiaogang and the others took Zhou Yan as their opponent.
When the box office of "The Piano Boy" exceeded that of "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" before, Feng Xiaogang made a special call to Xia Gang and said that "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" was left behind. Uplifting.
However, "The Big Brother" was released in Xiangjiang, but it was withdrawn after only six days of release. The box office was only over 200,000 yuan, which was very different from "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly".
Originally, this was a normal thing. When mainland movies were screened in Hong Kong, they would not get box office. Xia Gang and the others were mentally prepared. However, Feng Xiaogang was not convinced and said " "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" was able to sell well in Hong Kong because Tomson Company did a good job in publicity.
Xia Gang glanced at Ge You again, a little strange that Ge You shouldn't invite Zhou Yan and the others to come over to share a table. After a while, they sat together, and Feng Xiaogang said a few weird words, making them unhappy again.
The relationship was not so good before because Zhou Yan was let go. Now it has just eased a bit. Xia Gang really doesn't want to get into trouble again.
When Ge You saw Xia Gang's expression, he was also very helpless. He just mentioned it politely. Who knew that Chen Kaige agreed so simply.
After a while, Zhou Yan and the others came back from dinner and sat with Xia Gang and the others.
During the meal, everyone chatted casually. Xia Gang kept raising topics. The atmosphere was quite good. Feng Xiaogang spoke normally, and Xia Gang also breathed a sigh of relief.
Later, when the topic of recent plans was mentioned, Chen Kaige asked Zhou Yan with a smile, "You gave "Tree Hole" to others to shoot, so you won't shoot it during this time? Are you going to focus on music?"
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "I have another plan on hand, which has not been finalized yet."
He did not elaborate, and Chen Kaige did not ask in detail. Feng Xiaogang, who was diagonally opposite, said with a smile: "Zhou The director has a new plan. This is different from Mr. Tom and Xu. The plans are one after another, and he is not afraid that no one will buy it. Anyway, Tomson’s publicity ability is strong enough.”
If Zhou Yan was still unsure about Feng Xiaogang's previous words, but when he heard these words, he knew that Feng Xiaogang did have personal opinions on him. These words sounded a bit provocative.
Zhou Yan was also confused. This was the first time he and Feng Xiaogang had met, and they had no grudges.
It's love at first sight, but he's going to make enemies at first sight?
Before Zhou Yan could say anything, Xia Gang quickly spoke up and smoothed things over, "Of course Tomson Company is good, but it is also setting up a platform. The main thing is that Zhou Yan has the ability to perform on this platform."
Zhou Yanze smiled and waved his hand, "Hey, Editor Feng is right. We are lucky to be able to cooperate with Tomson. Master Kai, are you right?"
Chen Kaige aside He curled his lips and said a little unhappy, "Ang."
In fact, when Feng Xiaogang said that, Chen Kaige didn't have much idea, but when Zhou Yan mentioned it, he realized it. According to what Feng Xiaogang said, from now on, no matter what The good performance of "Farewell My Concubine" is also due to Tomson Film Company, which of course he is not happy about.
Chen Kaige originally had a good impression of Feng Xiaogang, but now he feels that his buck teeth are a bit unclear.
Feng Xiaogang knew he had made a mistake and quickly added, "I mean the same thing as Director Xia, that is, only a company like Tomson can bring your talents into full play."
See you. Zhou Yan couldn't help but smile at Feng Xiaogang's behavior. It turned out that this guy was also looking at what others were doing. Probably in Feng Xiaogang's eyes, he was still a soft persimmon.
In fact, Feng Xiaogang was willing to offend Zhou Yan, but was unwilling to offend Chen Kaige. In addition to the fact that Zhou Yan was young, inexperienced and not well-known, there was another important reason.
At this table, whether it is Ge You, Chen Kaige, or Xia Gang, they are all from Yanjing, and only Zhou Yan is a foreigner.
Feng Xiaogang values this thing very seriously. In Feng Xiaogang's opinion, Zhou Yan, an outsider, does not have upright roots.
The atmosphere during the meal became a little awkward because Chen Kaige didn't speak. Xia Gang wanted to liven up the atmosphere, but didn't know what to say, while Ge You didn't want to offend anyone and was honest. Have a meal.
At the end of the meal, Chen Kaige and Zhou Yan stood up to leave.
As soon as the two stood up, Zhou Yan turned to Ge You and asked, "Brother Ge, do you have time for us to chat later?"
Ge You hasn't spoken yet, Xia Gang He said, "There's nothing going on in the afternoon. Ge You, you have time to talk to Director Zhou."
Ge You was still hesitant at first. After all, in today's atmosphere, if he left suddenly, he might offend Feng Xiaogang again, but Xia Gang's words gave him a step forward, and he took advantage of these words and said, "Okay."
Zhou Yan smiled and nodded, "Then I'll wait for you in Mr. Kaige's office at one o'clock."
...
At one o'clock, Ge You arrived at Chen Kaige's office on time.
Zhou Yan was originally chatting with Wang Junzheng and Chen Kaige. When he saw Ge You coming, he stood up with a smile and said, "Brother Ge, let's go."
Ge You was stunned, "Where are you going?"
He thought Zhou Yan was looking for him to discuss matters at Yanjing Factory.
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "There is a script I want you to read. The script is at my house, not far from here. It will be there in a moment."
When he heard that he wanted to read the script, Ge You smiled He nodded and said, "That's okay."
Then the two people said something to Wang Junzheng and the others and left the office building.
Ge You was quite surprised when he saw Zhou Yan's car. Most people don't get this kind of treatment.
After arriving at the courtyard, Zhou Yan gave Ge You a copy of the script of "Tree Hole".
In fact, when he saw Ge You in the cafeteria just now, "Tree Hole" flashed through Zhou Yan's mind. After all, he had just talked with Wu Ziniu in the morning about the selection of the role of Yao Xiang, and suddenly he saw When you see a powerful actor, you will naturally think higher.
Furthermore, Zhou Yan had already called Wu Ziniu at noon and mentioned Ge You's appearance in "Tree Hole". Wu Ziniu was also very interested and asked Zhou Yan to take Ge You to find time to try out the show. .
Ge You was not too surprised. Zhou Yan was most likely talking to him about acting, and there was nothing else to talk about between them.
After taking the script, Ge You said with a smile, "Is this a new play directed by Zhou?"
Zhou Yan shook his head and said, "No, I am the screenwriter of this play and the director is Director Wu Ziniu."
This time Ge You was surprised. He didn't expect Zhou Yan to write a script for someone else, and the other person was Wu Ziniu.
Of course he knows who Wu Ziniu is. He has watched many of Wu Ziniu's movies, such as "Evening Bell", "Blood Valley" and "The Twilight Zone".
The script that Wu Ziniu likes is definitely not bad.
Then Ge You said nothing more and began to read the script seriously.
Zhou Yan didn't disturb him, just held a book next to him and started reading.
When he was less than halfway through the script, Ge You couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Just now he was still a little confused as to why Wu Ziniu would use Zhou Yan's script. He had seen "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" and Zhou Yan's movie style was quite warm, completely different from Wu Ziniu's style.
But now after reading half of the script of "Tree Hole", all the doubts in his heart have disappeared. The script of "Tree Hole" is completely different in style from "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly". It is definitely Director Wu Ziniu's dish.
The more he looked back, the more Ge You felt that this script was not simple, and Yao Xiang's role was also very special.
Yao Xiang was supposed to be a very normal person. He questioned superstition and the public. Especially when he screamed at the villagers to save the dying bamboo craftsman, he even gave people the impression that everyone was drunk. My solitary sense of heroism.
But later, after being trapped in a tree hole for a while, Yao Xiang began to change. It was hard to say whether it was to follow the crowd or to take revenge. He began to deceive others with the same set of things that he originally despised.
There is another clever thing about this script, that is, it sets up several mirrors for the character Yao Xiang, and what these mirrors reflect is different from Yao Xiang.
The first mirror is the village chief. He went to high school and is a little educated. He probably doesn’t believe in those theories about ghosts and gods, but he never expresses his thoughts and makes use of the theories about ghosts and gods. Come and organize activities in the village.
The second mirror is a doctor. When the villager performed the dance for the bamboo craftsman, the doctor was right next to him but remained silent. He was the most promising person to save the bamboo craftsman's life, but he did not take action.
The third mirror is Yao Xiang’s wife. She doesn’t believe in ghosts and gods either, but because Yao wants to make more money by dancing as a master, she chooses to marry him.
...These mirrors reflect something different from Yao Xiang, but they seem to reflect something in Yao Xiang's body. The final image of Yao Xiang is also a collection of these characters.
After Ge You finished reading the entire script, he was a little confused again, because he suddenly thought of the crow that Yao Xiang saw trapped in the tree hole earlier, and finally the crow flew away , seems to be implying something.
Seeing that Ge You had been staring at the last page of the script for seven or eight minutes, Zhou Yan smiled and said, "Brother Ge, have you finished reading it?"
Ge You came back to his senses and nodded with a smile. , "I've finished reading it. Director Zhou wrote this script really well. No wonder Director Wu will shoot it."
This is a smooth compliment, but it also has some sincerity.
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "Brother Ge, if you are interested in the role of Yao Xiang, I would like to invite you to audition."
Ge You wanted to agree immediately, but he held it back. He asked, "Director Zhou, when will this movie be filmed?"
"It should be next spring." Zhou Yan said.
Hearing that the filming of this drama will not start until next spring, Ge You laughed, "That's no problem."
Ge You also has a film contract, which is Liu Xiaoning's "The Thief" ” will start filming in more than a month. He probably won’t have time to take on other projects this year.
As long as it does not conflict with the filming of "The Thief", Ge You will definitely fight for the role of Yao Xiang, because he knows that only by participating in a movie like "Tree Hole" can his film career be more successful. Go up one floor.
Zhou Yan smiled and said, "In that case, let's make an appointment to go to the Bayi Factory for a trial. When will you have time?"
"I can do it in the next few days."
"Okay, I'll make an appointment with Director Wu to make time to arrange the audition in the next few days. Let's leave our contact information and I'll inform you of the specific time later."
"Okay."
Afterwards, Zhou Yan did not keep Ge You for dinner and asked Jiang Xia to drive him back to Yanjing Film Studio.
After Ge You left, Zhou Yan made a call to Wu Ziniu and made an appointment for the audition.
The results of the audition were very good. Zhou Yan and Wu Ziniu were both very satisfied with Ge You's performance and decided on the spot that Ge You should play Yao Xiang.
Ge You's style is more suitable for "Tree Hole", that is, it is serious but also a little absurd.
......
"Zhou Yan's performance fee is 150,000 yuan for two performances. This is our final quotation."
Xiu Shengqiang, vice president of Xiangjiang All-Star Entertainment Company, said Erlang Legs told Zhang Youan their company's third offer.
Zhang Youan narrowed his eyes. Two shows cost 150,000 yuan, with an average of only 75,000 yuan per show. Moreover, the cost of makeup and musicians was not even ten cents. If the money is divided, Tomson may even lose money.
Actually, this is already higher than before. All-Star Entertainment’s first offer was only 50,000 yuan per game.
Zhang Youan sighed slightly. He knew that there was no need to continue talking to Quanxing. Then he stood up and said with a smile, "In that case, Mr. Xu, we will have a chance in the future. Let’s cooperate again.”
Xu Shengqiang didn’t move his buttocks and still crossed his legs. “Mr. Zhang, you have to think clearly. Other companies may not be able to give you my price. Otherwise, you can’t. You won’t come to me three times. You should be satisfied with this price. In the past two years, we only paid them 170,000 yuan for Beyond’s concert in Elizabeth.”
Zhang Youan pouted, Xu Shengqiang said. Three years ago, Beyond’s status was not as high as it is now, and the performance fees at that time were lower than now. Besides, the 170,000 yuan given to them by All Stars was not all of them. Xing will give you additional money.
In fact, Zhang Youan found three companies. The other two companies were a little higher than the price offered by All Star, but of course not much higher.
The reason why he came to All-Star for the third time is because All-Star is the strongest among the three companies.
Zhang Youan smiled, "Mr. Xu, it's business, you have your demands, and I have mine."
"The demands of both of us are not that the concert should be held. Are you up? Of course you can ask Shining and Xuhua, but I don't think they can offer high prices, and their ability to host events is far from us. If the concert can't be held, Mr. Zhang, you can always come back. I, a good horse, have to go back to the grass.”
Zhang Youan shrugged, “I won’t worry about whether we can start the concert until the concert time is decided. , I will let someone give you a ticket.”
Xu Shengqiang said with a smile, "Then I will definitely dress up and attend."
"See you later."
"No."
After Zhang Youan left, Xu Shengqiang He spat, "What the hell."
If it weren't for Xu Feng who was behind Zhang Youan, Xu Shengqiang wouldn't even talk to Zhang Youan.
"The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly" has a good box office, but that is only relative to its low cost. Among the many movies in Hong Kong, its box office is nothing!
As for the sales of the music album "Piano Boy", it is not bad, but who can compare with it? If any singer from Xiangjiang comes out at random, wouldn't his record sales be higher than those of "Piano Boy"?
Here Zhang Youan walked out of All Star Company and also frowned.
He also knows that the performance fee is definitely out of the question. He can actually accept the 150,000 yuan for two performances, but it can be seen from Xu Shengqiang’s attitude that there is no way they will bother to help with the concert. publicity.
After returning to his residence, Zhang Youan called Xu Feng and reported the matter to Xu Feng.
After Xu Feng heard this, he didn't care at all and said with a smile, "In that case, let's do it ourselves. The appearance fee of 75,000 does not cover the makeup and musicians. It is too embarrassing to tell the price. . Even if the concert is finally completed, we will not be ashamed of it. If we only lose money by doing two shows in Xiangjiang and Taidao, we will not lose much, but in this case, we will have to pay more attention. ."
Zhang Youan smiled and said, "It's okay, I should pay more attention now."
"By the way, in terms of schedule, the concert on Taiwan Island should be put first. Put Xiangjiang at the back. "
When Xu Feng said this, Zhang Youan understood what she meant.
The album "Piano Boy" sold better in Taiwan, and because of the program "Walking and Talking", Zhou Yan's popularity in Taiwan is relatively high.
Tickets for the concerts in Taiwan will definitely sell better. When the two concerts in Taiwan are over, if the results are good, they may also be able to attract Hong Kong, at least in terms of publicity, it will be more beneficial.
"Okay, I understand, I will go to Taiwan tomorrow."
......
Zhou Yan did not know the difficulties Zhang Youan encountered in Xiangjiang. After confirming with Wu Ziniu that Ge You would play Yao Xiang, his main focus during this period was on the symphony orchestra.
After a period of recruitment, the orchestra has been fully staffed. These days, people from the orchestra come to his home to rehearse almost every day. Occasionally, he will take the orchestra members to the composition classroom to rehearse.
Now that he is a teacher, it is easier to do things like "using public affairs for personal gain". It is easy to find a classroom to rehearse.
The leaders in the department and the school have actually heard about Zhou Yan's involvement in the band. They have not expressed any opinions, but the lack of expressions is also a kind of support.
On October 15th, Zhou Yan had just given a harmony class to the 92 composition students. When he came out of the classroom, he was stopped by a man and a woman.
“Who are you?”
The two looked like students, and Zhou Yan’s first reaction was that they were from Yangyin.
The boy smiled and said, "Hello, Teacher Zhou, we are from the Zhou Yanyan Normal University Support Club. I am the president Zuo Li, and she is the vice president Li Yuanyuan."
Hearing the boy's self-introduction, Zhou Yan was also stunned.
He has actually heard of the organization "Zhou Yanyan Normal University Supporters Association", but he heard that there are not many people in this organization. It seems that a few students are just having fun on their own, maybe after a while It was disbanded.
Unexpectedly, the president and vice president of the support club found him directly.
This is the first time Zhou Yan has faced such a thing. He has little experience in dealing with it. He thought for a moment and asked, "What do you want from me?"
Vice President Li Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Teacher Zhou, I'm sorry for interrupting you. President and I came here to verify something with you."
"What's the matter?" Zhou Yan asked.
"In the movie "Sanmao Joins the Army" that was released a few days ago, in the scene where the army is laboring, is it you who is standing next to the protagonist?"
Zhou Yan took a pick. Eyebrows, is this what they came here to ask?
Li Yuanyuan further explained, "Since we have organized your fan club, we naturally need to know what works you have participated in. We also tried to call Shanghai Film Studio, but we may not have found the phone number. No, so I didn’t get in touch.”
Zhou Yan smiled. He didn't expect that his support staff would be so serious about preparing information, and would not miss even this small detail.
And their eyes are really sharp, they can spot this.
"It's indeed me. When I visited the set before, I happened to make a cameo. I didn't expect you to find out."
They were both very happy to get the answer.
"Thank you, Teacher Zhou Yan, I won't disturb you anymore."
After the two were about to leave, Zhou Yan stopped them with a smile, "Okay, I'll give you my assistant's contact information. If you have any questions in the future, you can contact my assistant."
Li Yuanyuan Surprised, "Is it true?"
"Of course it is true." Zhou Yan smiled, took out a pen and paper from his pocket, and wrote Jiang Xia's name and contact information to Zuo Li and the others.
Then he thanked the two of them, "Thank you for your support, but I still hope that your studies will not be affected by the support club affairs."
Zuo Li smiled and said, "Teacher Zhou, you Don’t worry, we all use our spare time to run the support club, and it will never affect our studies. Moreover, we are developing well now and have more than 30 members.”
Although Zhou Yan didn't ask, Zuo Li couldn't help but report the development of the support club to Zhou Yan, which was also a form of asking for credit. After all, they also wanted their efforts to be seen by Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan smiled and nodded, "Thank you. If you need anything, you can contact my assistant."
"Okay, okay, we won't disturb you anymore."
After saying that, the two turned around and left.
After walking a long way, the two of them turned their heads and glanced at Zhou Yan's back.
Li Yuanyuan patted her shoulder bag and said angrily, "President, you are too cowardly. Why don't you dare to just take out the album and ask Teacher Zhou to sign it for us."
Zuo Li curled his lips. , "If you don't give in, you should pay for it."
"You are the president and our locomotive. If you don't charge into the battle, how can we wave the flag and shout from behind?"
"..."
Zuo Li was also a little annoyed. He had even put his hand into his bag just now, but in the end he still couldn't muster the courage.
"We should bring Shang Wenya."
Li Yuanyuan nodded, "We must bring Shang Wenya next time."
Shang Wenya is quite thick-skinned. At Zhou Yan's graduation concert last time , it was Shang Wenya who took the photo to Zhou Yan for his autograph.
It’s just that Shang Wenya was busy during this period, so Zuo Li and the others didn’t call her. The main reason was that they were quite confident before coming and felt that they would definitely be able to get things done.
Now it seems that it is really not possible for this family to go to Shang Wenya.
Fortunately, they asked about the guest appearance in "Sanmao Joins the Army", which was considered a good thing.
“Let’s distribute the flyers later.” Li Yuanyuan suggested.
Zuo Li nodded, "Okay, we've almost finished the delivery in Xicheng. Let's go to Dongcheng today for a walk."
"Okay, I just have time in these two days."
< br>……
On Friday evening, Dong Wenmiao went to a movie theater near his home.
She was going to the ticket office to buy tickets when a girl walked towards her with a smile.
"Hello, sister."
The girl handed over a flyer.
Dong Wenmiao did not pick it up immediately. He first looked at the flyer. When he saw "Sanmao's Army Conscript" and "Zhou Yan" on it, he raised his eyebrows and took the flyer.
The content on the flyer is quite simple, just some words of praise for "Sanmao's Army" and Zhou Yan, and it seems to highlight Zhou Yan personally.
"This is?"
Seeing that Dong Wenmiao was interested, Li Yuanyuan quickly introduced it to her, "This is a recently released movie, with the talented musician Zhou Yan as the soundtrack director. Zhou Yan, you are You know, he is the director of "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly"
Dong Wenmiao pursed his lips and nodded, "Well, I have seen this movie."
Heard. Dong Wenmiao had watched "The Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly", and Li Yuanyuan was even more happy and introduced to her, "The short film version of this film won the Grand Prize at the Clermont-Ferrand International Film Festival, and it has been shown in Hong Kong and Taiwan. It has achieved very good results, and the soundtrack is composed by Zhou Yan..."
Dong Wenmiao nodded while listening.
Li Yuanyuan became more and more enthusiastic as she talked. This was the first time she saw an audience who listened to her explanation patiently. This beautiful sister had great taste at first glance.
After Li Yuanyuan finished speaking, Dong Wenmiao asked curiously, "Why are you promoting him?"
"Because we are all his movie and music fans." Li Yuanyuan pointed to the lower right corner of the flyer and showed it to Dong Wenmiao, "We are from the Zhou Yan Support Club."
Dong Wenmiao looked at the lower right corner of the flyer, where it read "Zhou Yanyan Normal University Support Club."
After pondering for a moment, she suddenly asked, "Does your support club only accept students from Yan Normal University? I am from Yan Guang, do you accept me?"
Li Yuanyuan was stunned. This was the first time she had encountered such a student. In this situation, a passerby took the initiative to ask if he could join the support club.
"Yes, of course." Li Yuanyuan nodded repeatedly, "Sister, do you want to join?"
Although they are called Zhou Yanyan Normal University Support Club, they actually allow other people to join. There are currently more than 30 people in their support club, including one from Yenching University and one from Yangyin University.
"Are there any procedures required to join you? Or do I need to pay membership fees or something like that?" Dong Wenmiao asked again.
"No, no, although we have membership fees, we do not force members to pay. They are all paid voluntarily based on personal circumstances."
"Then after I become a member, is there anything that can prove my identity?"
Li Yuanyuan was stunned again.
Seeing her stunned, Dong Wenmiao reminded, "For example, badges and clothing, since it is a group, there must be a group logo."
Li Yuanyuan shook her head blankly, they have never I didn't think about this, so I just helped Zhou Yan promote it with enthusiasm.
"I suggest you design one, which will enhance members' sense of belonging."
Li Yuanyuan swallowed her saliva and asked, "Sister, what do you do?"
"I am a tailor. ." Dong Wenmiao smiled.
