Chapter 15 Learn directing skills
Kong Xi's work efficiency is very high.
signed a contract with Luo Yu quickly, and the price was not bad, there was no price reduction, which was in line with Gu Qiao's rank.
The key is that Luo Yu didn't plan to lower the price, she also wanted to sell Lu Ban a favor.
Lu Ban only pretended not to know.
Starlight Entertainment doesn't have any opinions, after all, even if Lu Ban doesn't sell this song to Gu Qiao, the crew has already arranged for Gu Qiao to record the ending song, which means that Gu Qiao is the first singer to sing this song, and other singers are naturally reluctant to buy a song that others have sung.
Even if it's only sung once, it's second-hand, and second-hand is definitely not popular.
So selling this song this time can be regarded as squeezing the last residual value of this song, and Starlight Entertainment also praised Kong Xi, which finally relieved the pressure on her.
Lu Ban also took advantage of the fact that he was not busy and went to a securities company to open an account.
Then I picked an auspicious day for the zodiac, and when the market opened at nine o'clock in the morning, I used the [Stock Market Forecast] skill.
After using it, the K-line chart in the computer in front of Lu Ban immediately changed.
The rest is simple for him.
Buy all the money into a stock with a daily limit on the same day, of course, this stock must ensure that it cannot fall when the next day opens, because the rules of this stock are also T+1, and the stock bought on the same day cannot be sold on the same day.
So this is a great test of Lu Ban's patience.
After all, it is not easy to choose one of the stocks that are eligible from so many.
Lu Ban calculated, basically in a month, three million can be obtained.
Less is less, but it's enough to make a movie.
After all, it is not for nothing that he remembers the box office explosion of small-budget movies.
In the past few days, Lu Ban has been very close to director Liang Kesheng.
Although the problem of the script is not worried, he has never been a director, and he is not very clear about many details of shooting, so he decided to have a good chat with Liang Kesheng while he usually rested, hoping to get an answer.
"First of all, if you want to be a good director, you must learn to use every muscle in your body to make the other person listen to the story, which is a skill that a director should have, and it is also the basis of the director's storytelling. ”
Liang Kesheng made no secret of his appreciation for Lu Ban, and he also taught Lu Ban about the problems.
"Use every muscle in your body?" Lu Ban felt a little exaggerated.
Liang Kesheng laughed and said: "Does it feel too exaggerated, in fact, it is not exaggerated, after the director gets the book, the first thing should be to understand every detail by himself, experience every role, and then set a motive for every behavior of this character, which is very important." ”
"Because the actor will ask the director very strangely, 'Why am I doing this?' If the director can't give an answer to the actor, then the actor won't know what kind of mentality he should use to perform. ”
Lu Ban nodded, he knew this very well.
I've met unreliable directors before, and I relied on myself to experience the script after filming the whole process, but the effect I performed didn't match what the director wanted, and I couldn't satisfy him after countless times.
Liang Kesheng patted Lu Ban on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Generally, when we make films, we will not tell the actors about the drama only once, because our actors may not all have undergone special training.
An actor who has not received special training can also become a very good actor, as long as the actor's IQ is up to the standard of ordinary people., and the rest should be the director's homework. ”
"It seems that the director is still a public servant in the service of the actors. Lu Ban made a joke.
"No, no. ”
Liang Kesheng shook his head and said: "This is only part of it, there are many things that the director needs to do, for example, don't be confused with drama, in addition to drama, the scheduling of shots is also very important." ”
"Camera scheduling?"
For example, we often ask the actor to walk a certain way, at this time we can't just tell the actor to go from here to there, but to clearly tell the actor which line to take, where to go, where to go need to pause, but also to emphasize why to go this way, the actor's motivation and purpose and the mood at the moment, what is the previous shot, what is the next shot. Liang Kesheng said patiently.
Lu Ban didn't expect that there would be so much attention in it.
After all, for him, these are all basic operations, he has been acting in dramas for so many years, and some plays already have a plan in mind when he sees the script.
But not all actors are like him.
Some actors lack acting skills and it is difficult to control their expressions, and this is the time when the director needs to step in.
Liang Kesheng and Lu Ban talked a lot.
From the beginning to the end, he didn't ask Lu Ban why he asked this, and some questions were already clear without asking the communication between smart people.
He knew that Lu Ban was definitely not willing to just be a small person in the fourth or fifth line.
And Lu Ban will never be a small person all the time.
Liang Kesheng is willing to be his guide.
……
Today's shooting ended very early, and Lu Ban rarely had time to rest.
He wanted to go back to the hotel and start preparing his script.
Unexpectedly, Kong Xi hurried back from outside, entered the rest shed and didn't even drink saliva, and directly threw a stack of materials in front of Lu Ban.
"What's wrong?"
Lu Ban was stunned.
Kong Xi went back to the company early this morning, after all, Lu Ban's work after filming the drama "Let's Get Married" has not yet been settled.
As Lu Ban's agent, this is something she must prepare for in advance.
"This is a project that I found from the drama department that the company is preparing for recently. ”
Kong Xi sighed and said: "The company doesn't seem to plan to give us resources for the time being, so we have to rely on ourselves to fight for the next work, you first see if there is a role you are interested in, I made an appointment for a dinner with the planning director Liu in the evening, let's prepare it and see if we can fight for a role." ”
"Planning Department?"
Lu Ban was stunned, when will the planning department be able to manage the affairs of artist resources?
"Yes, the planning department, I'm sorry, I'm just an intern agent, and I don't have too many resources, this is the only senior I can make an appointment, or because I spent a few days in the planning department, no matter how I say that Mr. Liu is also a director, he should be able to talk...... bar. Kong Xi was also a little unsure.
“……”
Lu Ban knew that Kong Xi did his best.
He nodded and said, "I'll take these scripts back at night and read them first, as for the dinner, forget it, the planning department can't care about the artist's play, and this Mr. Liu is probably not a good bird." ”
In fact, he didn't even plan to read the script.
But Kong Xi's busy day can't be wasted, the little girl must have put a lot of thought into getting the script from the drama side.
In fact, on Starlight Entertainment's side, Huang Zhixuan has already said hello, unless Lu Ban goes to pick up commercial performances, or stays in the company to write songs for other artists, he will not have any other opportunities to appear.
As for the play?
If it weren't for him Huang Zhixuan, with Lu Ban's resources and that rotten shit-like acting skills, what kind of drama would he receive?
Sing?
The last song "Give You My Life" is now free, and the people in the company have long been dissatisfied, and now that the popularity of that song is almost over, what waves can be stirred.
also made some money by selling the two songs to the crew, who in the whole company doesn't know, who got Lu Ban into the crew in the first place?
Therefore, he will definitely not let Lu Ban have any opportunity to take advantage of.
Lu Ban knows all this.
I'm afraid that Kong Xi will not be squeezed by Huang Zhixuan when he returns to the company this time.
"Good work. ”
He poured Kong Xi a glass of water and said softly.
Kong Xi took it, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he suddenly felt that the grievances he suffered today didn't seem to be so serious.
Then
A familiar voice came from outside the rest shed.
"It turns out that Xiao Lu is here, just right, I came to look for our family Qiao Er and didn't find ......"
Lu Ban was stunned when he heard the voice, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Gu Qiao's parents.
Kong Xiang and Gu Yanyun were standing outside the rest shed.
Kong Xi was about to drink water, and when he turned around when he heard the voice, he was stunned there directly, and he didn't react until the water poured on his feet.
"Xiao Xi?"
"Dad...... Mom......"
Lu Ban: "?????"
