Chapter 398: Taking Hard Photos
Hu Yijing came to Hangzhou on the 4th of the next day, and brought a photography team to meet Meng Fan at the Fengji Martial Arts Hall.
She is a gold medal agent, combined with Meng Fan's situation, she selected the three most suitable plans, and after discussing with Meng Caiwei, Meng Caiwei decided to come down to one of them, and then called Meng Fan to discuss, and there was today's meeting.
Hu Yijing's plan is very simple, first of all, all the current invitations should not be ignored for the time being, the second is to determine Meng Fan's range, he is not just a sports star, so don't be limited to sports brands, and then there is no need to take the initiative to find an endorsement, waiting for high-quality endorsements to come to the door.
The specific implementation of the whole program is divided into two steps, both of which are combined with Meng Fan's reality, especially to take into account Meng Fan's training tasks and tight time, in other words, these two steps are not complicated, and they occupy very little Meng Fan's time.
The first step is to take a hard photo.
Hard photos are flat photos taken for advertisements and magazines.
In recent years, there are often all kinds of "hard photo expressiveness" that often appear in the entertainment industry, which is related to various advertisements and fashion magazine covers, and advertising and fashion magazines are the strategic places that the little flowers and students in the entertainment industry have seized.
Of course, there are also many hard photos that are taken according to the standards of advertising and magazines, and do not necessarily need to be used in advertisements and magazines in the end.
Having said that, hard photos are not the patent of the entertainment industry and fashion circle, and there are also business, sports and other fields.
In the field of sports, most well-known athletes have photographed, appeared in magazines or advertisements, and even used for some event promotion.
Before this, there were many people who invited Meng Fan to take hard photos, and even interviews and some magazines, but Meng Fan didn't even pay attention to advertising endorsements, let alone these.
Oh yes, when "Voice Big Coffee" was recorded before, Meng Fan also took hard photos for publicity.
Hu Yijing's proposal to take hard photos is to pave the way for the second step on the cover of a well-known magazine.
She had seen Meng Fan's expressiveness of the hard photos when she was filming "The Voice" before, and those various fans on the Internet blew up their own family's expressiveness or something, which can be said to be weak in front of Meng Fan.
Of course, the key is that Meng Fan is really good-looking, completely different from the vast majority of popular traffic idols now, full of majestic/masculine charm, and a real "hard" photo.
As long as you successfully become the cover character of a well-known magazine, you will find Meng Fan's endorsement in terms of quantity and quality, and it will have an automatic screening function.
To put it bluntly, this is called fishing endorsement.
Whether it is for Meng Caiwei or Meng Fan, Hu Yijing's "core idea" is only one, that is, Meng Fan should not accept endorsements casually, he would rather lack than abuse, and take over if he wants to take over.
And this point obviously comes to the hearts of Meng Caiwei and Meng Fan, this is Meng Caiwei's consistent attitude towards endorsements, and for Meng Fan, as long as it is not troublesome, and the small number is naturally less troublesome.
Hu Yijing's side, these two steps are not one step at a time, but they have already aimed at a magazine, and it is one of the five majors, and there is 99% confidence that they can win the cover. The remaining 1% is because Hu Yijing has just torn up this magazine, otherwise she would be able to win 100%. Of course, on the other hand, there is still 99% confidence under the premise that it has just been torn, which shows how great this confidence is.
"Xiao Fan. ”
"Sister Jing is here. ”
Today, Meng Fan was originally going to train at Fengji, and he was naturally practicing in the process of waiting for Hu Yijing to come, to be honest, even if he took the initiative to mention the endorsement, he would not delay other things because of this matter, he still had to practice, and the Olympics were not far away, and the training still couldn't be left behind.
Hu Yijing entered Meng Fan's training room and looked at it, her eyes lit up, partly because of Meng Fan's figure and sense of strength during the training, and on the other hand, it gave her an inspiration, temporarily changed the original arrangement, and said to Meng Fan: "Xiaofan, you continue to practice first, don't worry about us, we have a lot of time, we can't delay your training." In the course of your training, we will take some photos, is it okay? Of course, we will definitely show you after the shooting, and if it involves leaks or something, we will delete them immediately. ”
"No problem, it's a daily training. ”
Meng Fan nodded with a smile and continued his training, still having this basic trust in Hu Yijing.
"Brother Feng, Naxi. ”
Hu Yijing whispered to the two photographers who had brought: "According to what you are good at, shoot whatever you want, and then talk about it." ”
These two photographers, a man and a woman, are both very good at photographing men, one from a man's point of view and the other from a woman's point of view. Just nodded their heads, both of them were stunned for a while, and they were really a little shocked by Meng Fan's training, not only his exaggerated training intensity, but also the momentum he exuded when he trained.
Then, the two of them raised the camera with bright eyes, and for the two of them, Meng Fan at this moment was the most perfect prey in their eyes.
For the next half hour, the mood of the two photographers was no different from the group of Shen Yulin standing in their hearts all the time at OMG.
Needless to say, Meng Fan's charm was added to a few points in this environment, and what surprised them was that under the premise of capturing the camera, Meng Fan actually had such a strong sense of lens, and he was still training by himself.
After completing this half an hour, Meng Fan's morning training was over.
"Sister Jing, I'll take a shower first, and you can wait for me at the restaurant. Eat first before starting the shooting below. ”
Seeing that Hu Yijing was fine, Meng Fan asked Lao Hei to take them to the restaurant, and he went into the bathroom to take a bath.
Of course, the afternoon shooting is posing, the shooting is very simple, and the costumes are also very simple - a set of national team sportswear, a set of daily wear, and then a set of formal wear, and the selection of scenes is also simple, all in the Fengji Martial Arts Hall, and it took less than two hours to shoot before and after.
In less than two hours, the two photographers and the rest of the team once again saw Meng Fan's sense of lens and presence, and the photos taken did not need any retouching, and they couldn't take their eyes off it at a glance. As for expressiveness, just a smile and a look in the eyes are enough, cold and warm, ice and fire, switch freely.
After the filming was completed, Hu Yijing did not stay too long, and politely declined Meng Fan's invitation to invite them to dinner.
"We won't bother you training. Hu Yijing smiled, "Even if this shooting is completed, if the magazine has other requirements, I will contact you again, and the shooting time will be limited to two hours." In other aspects, I will also do what you ask. ”
"Okay, then trouble Sister Jing. ”
Meng Fan was naturally happy about such efficiency, and his trust in Hu Yijing also increased a few points. Not to mention, you can't go wrong with leaving professional things to professional people.
"What's the trouble, don't be polite to me!"
Hu Yijing smiled and waved her hand, and left with the team, coming and going as fast as she could. The pursuit of efficiency is the characteristic of her work, and in addition, she really wants to leave a good impression on Meng Fan.
Of course, it is impossible to make money this time, and even if there is money to be made, Hu Yijing will never ask for it, including the follow-up high-quality endorsements to help Meng Fan negotiate, she will not charge half a penny, pure friendship help.
In Meng Fan, it is absolutely impossible for her to ask for money, what she wants is friendship and favors. Money is very important, but sometimes other things can get more money, this truth, Hu Yijing knows this truth too well.
Let's just say that after being torn apart by Meng Caiwei and becoming friends by coincidence, Hu Yijing has helped Meng Caiwei deal with a lot of things, all of which are purely friendship-based help, and it looks like she can't get half a penny, but in fact, she gets more indirectly.
Hu Yijing is sometimes unscrupulous, there is no lack of ruthlessness, but sometimes she is very particular about doing things, like this time, after the post-production of the hard photos taken by Meng Fan was completed, they were not sent to any media, but first sent to the weightlifting and wrestling center.
The weightlifting and wrestling center is an organization responsible for athletes interviewing these aspects in magazines, and it is said that Meng Fan's particularity can completely skip this link, but it is still sent and reviewed by them, and the so-called audit is mainly whether it is in line with the athlete's mental outlook. The review of the weightlifting and wrestling center went smoothly, and after the backup was retained to the Publicity Department of the Sports Federation, the audit reply was also given.
After that, Hu Yijing sent a press release to the familiar media, and the content of the press release was a group of selected photos of Meng Fan's daily training, basically without any post-processing, all of which were captured.
First it was sent by the photographer himself, and then the media followed.
Of course, by the time the picture appeared in the public eye, it would be days later.
On the 5th, "Crazy Primitives II" was released, and after Meng Fan finished the day's training, he went to the cinema with Wu Tong and Zhang to watch a movie.
Of course, Meng Fan had seen the film, but he still came with everyone, and of course everyone chose the Chinese version. Honestly, it's a very fun and weird thing to watch your voice appear in your favorite movie in the cinema and throughout the audience.
In recent years, the proportion of foreign films in Chinese dubbed versions has been declining rapidly, and the number of films is very low, of which animated films are slightly better, after all, there will be more children's audiences relatively speaking, but it is not high. This time, the proportion of the Chinese version of "Crazy Primitives II" is the highest in three years, and the reason is simply because of Meng Fan.
Moreover, after watching the movie, the audience gave a very high evaluation, many of them were forced to choose the Chinese version because the original version could not be bought, but the perception was surprisingly good, and they exclaimed that they only knew that Meng Fan played two roles after watching the voice actor, and he was the two most important roles of the protagonist and the villain.
In addition, the quality of other voice actors in the Chinese version is also very high, in addition to Gai, the dubbing cast of the first part is continued, whether it is Liang Jiahui's Gua Ge, Fan Xiaoxuan's Xiaoyi or Di Feifei's Wu Ga, it is still wonderful.
Overall, the audience and filmmakers who have brushed the two versions of the original Chinese have rarely unanimously given the evaluation that the Chinese version is no worse than the original sound, and Meng Fan is also widely acclaimed.
You must know that the original dubbing cast includes Nicolas Cage, Sister Stone, Little Cheap, etc.
And such an evaluation also attracted more people to watch the Chinese version, mainly for Meng Fan, quite curious.
