Chapter 217: Use Me to Block the Gun
"The way of the world, the way of the road...... The Tao is very Tao, the way of heaven and earth, the way of humanity and the way of the sword, the way of the underworld and the white way of the ecliptic, the left way of the equator, the left way and the right way ......"
Yuan Hong borrowed the strength of the wine, and the role was brought in, as if Yan Chixia was possessed, and a song sang about the cynicism of dissatisfaction with reality, and also sang a kind of unwillingness and self-blame after helplessness to escape.
There is no doubt that Yuan Hong sang the flavor of this song this time.
With the plot picture, it is definitely more flavorful.
"Do you want to do it again?"
After singing a song, Yuan Hong spoke.
He was a little unsatisfied.
This song is very enjoyable to sing!
At this time, his face was flushed, his mouth was spitting wine, and he had a sense of immediacy like a KTV Maiba.
"No need!" Zhang Pu said with a smile, "It was perfect just now. ”
Again? I'm afraid that no matter how many times I do it again, it may not be the same as the one I just did.
It feels like this kind of thing, it's very mysterious.
"Haha!" Yuan Hong smiled and said, "I don't think I can sing the taste just now." ”
Zhang Pu smiled and stopped continuing the topic.
"Now that it's recorded, it's time to take your leave. I went back to work on the script. Yuan Hong said.
"This is leaving, my brother is still going to have a drink with you in the evening?" Zhang Pu said with a smile.
When Yuan Hong heard this, he walked faster.
When Zhang Pu saw it, he smiled.
It seems that Yuan Hong is really scared of his own brother, and the last time he called Yuan Bin in Xiangjiang, he seemed to be invincible.
I don't know if there will be a sentence in the circle in the future, "Don't drink with Zhang Chu".
Oriental DreamWorks' team of cutters has grown and numbered more, but the level has not decreased in the slightest.
At the time of the first cut, Zhang Pu only looked at it occasionally, and did not guard it all the time.
However, after "A Chinese Ghost Story" was completed, he had a lot of things.
talked to Zhang Ke about "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", talked about "Parasite" with Jiang Yun, and talked about "The Richest Man in Xihong City" with Lin Mu. He is the screenwriter of these three films, and he is also a director himself, so he naturally has a lot of say.
Zhang Ke and Jiang Yun are top directors, but they still attach great importance to Zhang Pu's opinion.
Zhang Pu's opinions based on the original version can make their eyes shine and inspire them many times.
As for Lin Mu, naturally not to mention.
Zhang Pu himself is also good at comedy.
The discussion between the two sometimes bursts into more intense sparks.
"The choice of money and love, under the madness and test, is the thinking and perception of the 'richest man' on the road of life. ”
Zhang Pu was stunned for a moment when he heard Lin Mu's words, and then said: "This film is a comedy, and it doesn't have so much connotation. Protect the most precious thing in your heart, you are the richest man in your life, my personal role is too chicken soup. ”
"Do you want to see the Internet?" Zhang Pu then suddenly asked.
Lin Mu shook his head, he was a little puzzled, why Zhang Pu suddenly asked this question.
What is there to see on the web.
"Actually, this film is a bit of a god in the Internet. What is it like to be a super-rich second generation? I guess many people have had such fantasies. And the film is undoubtedly to satisfy the audience's obscenity. ”
"Having money can make the arrogant and powerful hotel manager bow down, let the stock god accompany you to dinner, and let the big star go to your house for a concert. If the movie finally falls gently on the rancid chicken soup of 'money is not important' and 'plain is true', the logic before and after this is obviously deranged......"
Lin Mu nodded, he understood what Zhang Pu meant.
In the film, elements such as irony, emotion, and football enthusiasm and inspiration are added, but if they are not handled well, they will eventually become a noisy piece of loose sand.
How to deal with it well, this is a test of the director's skills.
Zhang Pu revised some of the criticisms of the original version, but in the end, it was the director's business.
He believes in the level of Lin Mu.
"Why do you have time to come to me today?"
Zhang Pu had just returned to the office, but Huang Ye came.
When they have time, they get together once in a while. Many times it was Guo Ji and Huang Ye who made an appointment with him.
If Huang Ye didn't work, he really hadn't come to Zhang Pu's company.
"Director Zhang, is your company involved in the brokerage field?"
Huang Ye asked Zhang Pu with a smile.
"Hmm!" Zhang Pu nodded and said with a smile, "What's the matter?
"The contract is almost expiring. Huang Ye said.
He became famous with "Crazy Stone", but he was just a tricky actor before, unlike Guo Ji, who has a deep background, so the company he signed with is not big, and the contract has not been signed for a long time.
Huang Ye has today's fame, which is basically accumulated by Zhang Pu's movies. His company didn't play much of a role in his development.
Now that he is also famous, his company wants to renew the contract, although the contract has been improved, but Huang Ye obviously will not continue to stay.
People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places.
With his current fame, he should not worry about where to go.
"I wonder if Director Zhang can take it in?" Huang Ye continued.
He came to Oriental DreamWorks this time because Mao Sui recommended himself. This is also a decision he made after some thought.
Instead of going to a big company, it is better to go to a company with great potential like Oriental DreamWorks.
There should be more opportunities to come here.
What's more, with his friendship with Zhang Pu, he will be taken care of somewhat.
What kind of person Zhang Pu is, how much does he know.
"You are naturally welcome. However, you can think clearly, the company has just been involved in this, and it is not very mature. Zhang Pu said.
Oriental DreamWorks has signed artists, but most of them are newcomers. And in terms of resources, there are not many nowadays.
"Director Zhang is willing to take it in. Huang Ye said with a smile.
"When does your contract expire?" Zhang Pu then asked.
"Next month!" Huang Ye said.
Zhang Pu was stunned for a moment. Isn't it a few days away next month?
"Okay!" Zhang Pu nodded and said, "Although the company is in its infancy, there is really no shortage of drama. Most of the company's current signings are newcomers, and it's really a coincidence that you're here now. ”
Huang Ye came to Oriental DreamWorks at this time, and I have to say that it is his cleverness.
Oriental DreamWorks is now signing almost all newcomers.
Zhang Chu was a little famous before, but he didn't show up for so long, and the audience had long forgotten about him.
What's more, Zhang Chu and Huang Ye took different routes, and there would be no competition.
Huang Ye came at this time, so he is the biggest actor among the many actors in Oriental DreamWorks.
There is no shortage of scenes in Oriental DreamWorks, and in these films, if there is a suitable role, Huang Ye will naturally be given priority.
There is no need to open your mouth.
Huang Ye was directly recommended to Jiang Yun by Jiang Xingwen.
The meaning is self-evident, I want him to play "Parasite"!
No matter what the film, it is natural to give priority to the artists under his company.
Although Huang Ye was automatically delivered to the door, the contract given by the company was still extremely good.
This is somewhat of a bit of a gold to buy horse bones.
After being busy, Zhang Pu had to put down what he was doing and go to Shacheng to record "The Voice of China"!
The instructor guides the students, although they don't cut much content into it, and it is mainly based on Chen Huatao, but Zhang Pu also needs to show up.
For this reason, Zhang Pu also deliberately took a look at the performance of many students in Chen Huatao's group in the previous blind selection stage.
"Brother Tao is giving guidance to the students, so I didn't come to pick you up, let me say sorry to you. ”
The one who picked up the plane was Chen Huatao's assistant.
"Brother Tao is polite. Zhang Pu said with a smile.
Chen Huatao is conscientious and conscientious, and since he is a "mentor" rather than a judge, he will naturally give some guidance to the students.
When the instructor assesses, whether the student is making progress or not is easy for those who know how to see.
"The Voice of China" is a talent show to watch voices, but no matter how good the voice of the contestants is, if they sing out of tune, I am afraid it will not work.
Of course, if the voice is not distinctive, no matter how good the singing skills are, there is no advantage.
Chen Huatao has a group with a good voice, good singing skills, and good appearance...... There are not many students with great potential.
However, it may be difficult for the singer to become popular.
The company's resource investment behind him is still very important.
There are many students who have become popular in the original version of "The Voice", but after many years, how many people are still active?
Who will go further, I'm afraid time will have to tell.
This is determined by a combination of factors.
"Director Zhang, Brother Tao asked me to sort out the information of the students, you can take a look. Assistant Chen Huatao handed Zhang Pu a stack of student files.
Zhang Pu nodded.
He had made preparations before he came, but he didn't know much about the trainees.
Although, he doesn't think it's necessary.
The assessment naturally depends on the performance of the students at the time of the assessment.
"Some of the students made some markings, it was ......"
Zhang Pu looked at it, but saw that something was wrong.
"The students of the contracted company, the company behind them, wants them to be promoted. Some also found Brother Tao's friends to intercede, and Brother Tao was really embarrassed. Assistant Chen Huatao said.
Zhang Pu nodded.
It would be surprising if the company behind those students didn't do it!
The competition is fierce.
The competition on stage can be seen by the audience, but they can't see the competition off the stage.
If it weren't for the fact that Oriental DreamWorks focuses on film and television, and has not yet been involved in the music business, I am afraid that it will be even more involved.
Perhaps because of this, there are more companies and connections involved in this show.
There are those who follow the path of TV stations, and those who follow the path of mentors, each showing their magical powers. Not for anything else, just to advance to one or two more rounds and get more exposure.
"Why do I suddenly feel that Brother Tao is looking for me to be this dream mentor, and there is a suspicion of blocking the gun for him?" Zhang Pu suddenly said with a smile.
Chen Huatao has been in the circle for so long, what has he never seen?
However, from the performance of "New Singer-Songwriter", it is not difficult for Zhang Pu to see that Chen Huatao is very resistant to this kind of black-box operation.
It may not be completely fair and just, but he will try his best to give those who are in a disadvantaged position a better competitive environment.
Hearing Zhang Pu say this, Assistant Chen Huatao smiled awkwardly.
He did not deny it.
Chen Huatao's invitation to Zhang Pu did have this consideration.
Zhang Pu is not involved in the music scene, and no one has anything to do with those record companies.
He is also the planner of this show, he wants the fairness and justice of the show, and no one has anything to say.
Even, the appearance of Zhang Pu can make this kind of dark box operation much more convergent.
This show is so popular, it definitely won't do a season.
The image of the program is still very important.
As soon as Zhang Pu put his luggage at the hotel, he went directly to the training room.
At this time, Chen Huatao was teaching some singing skills with the students.
"Director Zhang!"
"Teacher Zhang!"
As soon as Zhang Pu arrived, all the students hurriedly greeted him, and some people were full of excitement when they saw Zhang Pu, and there was a kind of excitement to see an idol.
The shouting method is different, but those who shouted "Director Zhang" came back to their senses and immediately changed their words.
"It's just in time, give them some pointers!" Chen Huatao said with a smile.
"Come on, I'm here to learn a few tricks from you. Give them pointers, you're not afraid that I'll mislead people's children!" Zhang Pu said with a smile, "Among them, there are many who are better at singing than me." ”
This is really not self-humility.
Among the students, there are really masters.
Zhang Pu's singing skills are not bad, but among many singers, he may not be at the bottom, but he is definitely not much better.
His fame in the music world is not based on how good his singing skills are, but because he is talented enough in creation.
"Then talk to them. Chen Huatao shook his head with a smile and said, "Don't say anything about learning a few tricks, even if you say that you are here to make soy sauce, I will listen to it more comfortably." ”
"Then communicate. Zhang Pu said with a smile.
You have to do things with money!
Zhang Pu, the dream mentor, has the money to get.
Although, that little money is nothing.
Before they could communicate, Chen Huatao was called aside by Zhang Pu.
"Choose songs, group, you can help me take a look and give some advice. Chen Huatao handed a notebook and handed it to Zhang Pu.
Zhang Pu did not refuse.
How to group and how to choose songs?
There are many factors to consider here, and there are many things that can be operated.
In a way, there is a bias.
Under normal circumstances, two strong players will not be placed in a group PK.
When two tigers fight, one will be injured.
From the perspective of the program, this situation will also be avoided.
However, if the two contestants, one strong and one weak, and the disparity in strength are too great, then the PK will be a little less interesting, and it will inevitably affect the effect of the show.
In addition, each contestant has their own style and the songs they are good at.
How to group is one puzzle, and choosing songs is another.
Two players with different styles are placed in a group, what kind of song do you choose?
One is good at it, the other is not good at it, where is the fairness?
There have been songs chosen by mentors before, and the bias is too obvious, and the audience has questioned the fairness.
Chen Huatao clearly does not want this to happen.
The song selection should show the advantages of the contestants and let the audience see their progress......
It is not difficult to see from Chen Huatao's notes that he has done a lot of homework and considered it comprehensively.
It is impossible to be absolutely fair in any competition, and it is impossible to take all factors into account.
"That's good!" Zhang Pu said.
He also knew about those students, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with Chen Huatao's grouping and song selection.
"Give me some advice!" Chen Huatao pouted.
"The grouping is very well thought out. Zhang Pu said with a smile, "Choose the songs, let them choose among the songs you give!"
For what songs each group sang, Chen Huatao basically gave two or more songs.
"Let them choose? What if they choose differently?" Mr. Chen said.
"When the time comes, it's up to us to decide, or let them draw lots, there are many ways. Zhang Pu said.
Chen Huatao nodded.
