And those who have acting skills, they also know that it is the same thing whether they go to participate or not, it's just a broken trophy, so they won't act well. ”

Director Zhang said: "That's the truth. ”

Director Zhang continued: "So, this year, I implemented reforms, my rules are very simple, I told them that the original intention of holding the Hengdian Best Film Award and the Hengdian Best Actor Award this year is the same as before, that is, as long as anyone can get the ranking, they can enter our crew."

And this year, I did a lot of publicity for "Sweeping the Dark" in the early stage, everyone knows "Sweeping the Dark", and I am not ashamed to say that I am also well-known in the south.

So, when I issued the rules at that time, many actors would definitely want to participate, so the first thing was solved, which was the motivation of the actors, which was also the most important thing.

I was thinking that it was not enough to solve this matter, because the director would still card actors, and they would not let the best actors participate in the selection of the Hengdian Best Film Award and the Hengdian Best Actor Award, so I began to implement my second strategy.

In fact, my second strategy is also very simple, that is, starting from interests, for the director, what are his interests? His interests are the box office, so I promise that as long as they can win any of the awards of the Hengdian Best Film Award and the Hengdian Best Actor Award, they will get publicity, and this publicity is the same as the publicity of "Sweeping the Dark". ”

Yi Yan nodded, "Director Zhang is really smart, in this way, there will definitely be a lot of directors who have recommended the best talents in their crews." ”

Director Zhang whispered to Yi Yan: "I'll tell you a little secret again!"

"What's the secret?" Yi Yan asked.

"Actually, before I came to Hengdian, I had already taken out 60% of the promotion funds for the drama "Sweeping the Dark" as publicity, so that every crew saw that "Sweeping the Dark" had invested so much money in the promotion, could they not be impressed?"

When Yi Yan heard this, he was suddenly taken aback, and he found that Director Zhang was really older and spicy.

Director Zhang continued: "It is not enough to rely on interests alone, because there are still many directors who will worry about the problems of actors, and actors can get the pass of "Sweeping the Dark", so that they will not be attentive to the current movie, so the quality of the current movie will not be able to get up.

So what to do, I implemented the second strategy, which is that even if you pass, you may not be able to pass. ”

"Well......" Yi Yan thought for a while and said: "This is indeed a good strategy, in this way, these actors will stay in the crew and finish the current scene well, because you told the actor here that he can only come to "Sweeping the Dark" after filming his current scene, if he makes any mess during the filming of the current scene, or is not serious, he can be disqualified."

So. It is also a guarantee to the directors, and these directors will definitely let the better people in their crews participate in the Hengdian Best Film Award and the Hengdian Best Actor Award. ”

Director Zhang said: "Not only that, you should have heard of the Hengdian Best Film Award and the Hengdian Best Actor Award last year, that is, the final Hengdian Best Film Award and Hengdian Best Actor Award were given to their opponent crew, and the actors of their rival crew."

In fact, when I do this, I can also examine whether there are some actors who are lurking in other crews, but actually my opponents. ”

Yi Yan said with a smile: "Hahaha, it's really a good means, in this way, the second problem will be solved, and this year's Hengdian Best Film Award and Hengdian Best Actor Award Director Zhang also used an audition mode, so that those actors who originally wanted to participate, but never had the opportunity to participate, or the director didn't let them participate, also have a chance,

In this way, all the problems we are facing now have been solved. ”

Director Zhang said: "What you said is not wrong at all. ”

"So now, Director Zhang is in an advantageous position in terms of talent. However, Director Zhang, why did you choose actors in Hengdian? You can go to find actors, with your current prestige in the south, I think, as long as you look for actors, many people will come to participate, right?"

Director Zhang said: "I also thought about this problem before, I seriously analyzed the reason why I did not enter the top ten directors in the south every year, and finally came to a conclusion, that is, every one of my entries is high at the box office, and the configuration of the actors is very good."

Can this show that my director is good, so you have this box office? It must not be explained, to a certain extent, the credit of the actors is more than half of it, because these actors are very famous actors, and they have a lot of fans.

A good director is not able to produce a high-box office movie, at the same time, he can also cultivate excellent actors, a director who can let excellent actors perform in a good movie is not a good director, a director who can use an actor who does not have any popularity and no fans to make a movie, and finally produces a director with a high box office, this is a good director.

Therefore, I need to dig out these talents myself, where these talents are the most, I think, can only be found in Hengdian, so I came to Hengdian this year. ”

Yi Yan said: "In this way, this year's top ten directors in the southern country, Director Zhang should be very promising." ”

Director Zhang said: "I hope I don't dare to say it, I can only say that there may be a bigger chance this year, now the most important actor's matter has been solved, and the script of "Sweeping the Dark" has also been reviewed, and there is no problem." And this year's investor is still Mr. Liu, "

"Mr. Liu?" Yi Yan opened his mouth wide and said, "Isn't Mr. Liu investing in our crew now? Why did he invest in "Sweeping the Dark"?"

Director Zhang said with a smile: "Who said that Mr. Liu can only invest in one movie? Which investor is not investing in multiple movies, let alone this Mr. Liu? Liu has invested a lot of movies in the industry, and on average, it is very normal to invest in dozens of films a year."

There are big movies and there are small movies, for big movies. Of course, Mr. Liu will invest more, and for small movies, Mr. Liu will invest relatively less, such as Director Chen's movies. Liu's total investment is not so much. ”

"I see. Yi Yan muttered.

Director Zhang said: "So, think about it, this year is really the right time and place for me, all I have, if I don't succeed this year, I really have no choice, maybe God doesn't want me to get this title!" Director Zhang said that he was very regretful.

In fact, Director Zhang's purpose in saying so much is very simple, that is, to be able to let Yi Yan help him, he found that Yi Yan is indeed a good seedling, if he cultivates Yi Yan, he will be much easier, besides, Yi Yan is now just a small martial arts stand-in, Director Zhang can be sure that Yi Yan urgently needs fame.

In order to make Yi Yan trust himself more, Director Zhang said: "Also, what you asked me about just now, my relationship with Xia Zhixia, I think, Xia Zhixia can tell you." ”

Xia Zhixia listened to it so much, she was a little tired, she worked hard to clean up her voice and said: "Actually, Director Zhang is my Uncle Zhang according to his seniority, because he is my father's junior brother." Hey. ”

This sentence can be regarded as waking up Yi Yan, and Yi Yan finally understood that in fact, Xia Zhixia has always called Director Zhang "Uncle Zhang", which is the most important reason.

Director Zhang said: "That's right, that's right, Xia Zhixia's father and I, the two of us are brothers, you should have heard of a person, this person is called Yang Dingfeng." ”

Yi Yan heard this name, and suddenly felt why this world is so small, this Yang Dingfeng is no one else, he is a good friend of his father, and this person is also the first of the top ten directors in the south for five consecutive years!

In the end, Yang Dingfeng was really tired of being one of the top ten directors in the south, and the organizing committee also felt that if Yang Dingfeng had been in this position, it would be impossible for any newcomers to join, so later, the organizing committee simply let Yang Dingfeng be the chief referee of the organizing committee.

However, Yi Yan definitely can't say what Yang Dingfeng and his father know, so Yi Yan said: "I have heard of this person, he is the first of the top ten directors in the south for five consecutive years." ”

Director Zhang said: "Yes, Xia Zhixia's father and I are his apprentices. ”

Yi Yan was surprised when he heard this, it can be said that this was the most surprising thing for him tonight, because Yang Dingfeng is just like his name, and he is already at the peak of the film industry in the entire southern country.

Director Zhang continued: "I have told you so much today, I admit it, in fact, I just want to gain your trust, this year is the year that is the most promising year for me to become one of the top ten directors in the south, Yi Yan, I will not speak like others, there are so many hidden things, I am a person, I will say whatever I have to say."

It's true that I want you to come to my crew in order to gain your trust, because you have a spirit flowing in your body, which is the spirit of actors, and your understanding is very strong, I believe that if you can come to my crew, through a year of cultivation of you, you will definitely become a famous actor. ”

Yi Yan didn't reveal his heart, the more mysterious he is, the more Director Zhang wants him to go to the crew, isn't there a saying like this?

Yi Yan said: "Director Zhang, I told you about this before, I can go to your crew, but I don't want to go to your crew like this, like this, it's like I'm going through the back door, I want to go to your crew in a dignified manner, participate in the competition, and get a ranking in the competition." ”

This is the first time that Yi Yan has spoken to Director Zhang so clearly, Director Zhang still couldn't believe it, he asked again: "Yi Yan, do you mean that as long as you prove your ability in the competition, you will definitely come back to my crew?" ”
