117 The director is in place
Liu Jianmin, a native of Beijing, triggered a ratings frenzy when he directed the TV series "Flame" independently for the first time at the age of 40, and then it was even more smooth sailing, and he won all the domestic TV awards, but in recent years, he has not appeared in the public eye, as if he has disappeared.
Outsiders don't know why Liu Jianmin didn't take the film, but Wang Zhi knows it very well.
Liu Jianmin is a person who cherishes feathers very much, he would rather stay at home than take bad movies, in recent years, the wind direction of the entire entertainment industry has been a little crooked, Liu Jianmin and many other real old artists have been cats together, and they are simply out of sight.
When Wang Zhi led Zhou Ran to Liu Jianmin's house, Director Liu was holding a cookbook in the kitchen and chattering:
"200 grams of flour"
"Eggs for two"
"100g bean paste"
"A little bay leaves, a little peppercorns, a little sesame oil......"
The front sounds like a recipe for egg cakes, but the more I listen to it in the back, the more wrong it becomes, can I eat this thing? The fat brother really wanted to lean over and take a look at the magical recipe in Liu Jianmin's hand.
Maybe Liu Jianmin also felt that something was wrong, pushed his glasses and took a closer look, before exclaiming: "Who tore half of the page of the egg cake!"
A woman in her fifties helped Wang Zhi and the two open the door, and when she heard the movement in the kitchen, she said speechlessly: "I tore the foot of the table!
Liu Jianmin raised his head and was about to refute when he saw Wang Zhi in the room, wiped his hands, took off his glasses, and walked out of the kitchen.
"Director Wang, this is nothing to do without going to the Three Treasures Palace!"
"You just pouted with a whetstone in the kitchen, didn't you, look at your damage!"
It seems that the two have a very good relationship in private, and they can make any joke.
Liu Jianmin glanced at Zhou Ran, looked at Wang Zhi and asked, "Who is this?"
"Leave him alone and help me see this. ”
After speaking, he took out a brown paper document bag from his bag and handed it to Liu Jianmin.
"Books?"
After checking his hands, Liu Jianmin knew what was inside.
Wang Zhi just raised his chin and motioned for him to open it himself.
Liu Jianmin grinned, untied the thread tied to the cowhide bag, pulled out a stack of scripts, and looked at it in turn: "Bright sword?"
On July 7, 1937, the RB Army launched a brazen attack on the Chinese garrison at the Lugou Bridge in Beiping, and the 29th Army of the Chinese National Revolutionary Army counterattacked. Thus began an eight-year-long and arduous war against the RB invaders. ”
Liu Jianmin's casual face disappeared, replaced with a serious and solemn expression, put on glasses, and looked at it word by word.
After reading two pages, I wanted to continue to turn down, and pressed the script with one hand, Liu Jianmin frowned and was about to go crazy, and when he raised his head and saw Wang Zhi's face teasing, he remembered that he was not in the group.
Liu Jianmin reluctantly closed the script, took off his glasses, and heard Wang Zhi ask: "What do you think of this script?
"Do I know this screenwriter, where is the copyright, you galaxy?"
Liu Jianmin did not answer positively.
"Let me introduce you to this, Zhou is not only the screenwriter of Liangjian but also the investor of this play!"
Wang Zhi did not answer positively, but pulled out the fat brother and introduced him to Liu Jianmin.
Liu Jianmin looked incredulous, glanced at Zhou Ran, who was too young, and looked at Wang Zhi to confirm: "Are you serious?"
Zhou Otherwise, he proposed to invest 30 million yuan and not interfere with the shooting, provided that he did not modify the script without authorization, just let him follow the group, and director Liu Jianmin had full authority to direct "Bright Sword", Liu Jianmin agreed in a hurry, and the shelves were not finished, for fear that Zhou Otherwise would regret it.
"Director Liu, I still have a requirement for actors. ”
Liu Jianmin, who was full of joy and was about to read the script, immediately closed the script again, and squinted slightly at Zhou Ran, as long as Zhou Ran proposed to plug the actors into the group, even if he Liu Jianmin liked this film, he would not shoot it!
"This is a film that pays tribute to the martyrs, I hope Director Liu can be cautious in the selection of actors, and don't choose some inexplicable little fresh meat and traffic stars. ”
Zhou Ran looked at Director Liu and said seriously.
Liu Jianmin's slightly sharp eyes softened suddenly, and he nodded as if he was relieved and moved, and didn't talk about anything, Liu Jianmin only said that you just look at it.
After going around and around and finally catching the flight back to Pengcheng, Wang Zhi looked tired as if talking to himself: "We are old, it will be your turn to appear next, I will watch you go straight, don't be crooked, don't fall!"
After saying that, he closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair and stopped talking.
"Uncle Wang, thank you. ”
The corners of Wang Zhi's mouth seemed to be slightly hooked into a smile.
Recently, there was news in the entertainment industry that Liu Jianmin was going to reappear in the rivers and lakes, and artists who had a little confidence in their acting skills began to stir, because they knew that Liu Jianmin was extremely disgusted with artists who ate with their faces.
Regardless of whether they have cooperated with Liu Jianmin before or not, these people are like hungry sharks that smell blood, and they ask people to knock on the side to know if it is really something, but Liu Jianmin is a rare free person in the circle, and these people have no choice but to take the high-level route.
The fat brother didn't wait for the news that Liu Jianmin was preparing for the filming, but waited for his "help" call.
"Otherwise, I have read the script of Bright Sword several times and found a fatal problem!"
"Director Liu, you say!"
"Do you know the people in the army? I guess many of the scenes in the script need the help of the troops, and if you change them, they won't have that flavor. ”
The two chattered on the phone for a while before hanging up the phone, and the fat brother began to get depressed as soon as he sat on the sofa.
I don't know the troops, I've seen several generals, but the key is that people don't care about me!
Liu Jianmin also asked the military to assist when he filmed this type of TV before, but it was all petty fighting, and this time the troops had to have at least 10,000 people, and Liu Jianmin was a little blind, and his little relationship was not able to work hard.
I have to try it, the fat brother brewed his rhetoric for a while, and turned out the phone number of Zhang Yongcheng, deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the military sub-district, who was the one who helped him match and sign the army's propaganda agreement before.
I thought no one answered, but I didn't expect that just after two rings, the phone was connected, and a calm male voice came from the other end: "Otherwise, find me something?"
Rao is Zhou is not thick-skinned enough, this will also be a little embarrassed, when he is fine, he can't see the figure, and he knows to find someone when he has something.
may be due to the nature of the soldiers, Zhou Otherwise, he simply said the matter on the phone, Zhang Yongcheng didn't say a word, and directly asked him to bring the script to the military subdivision to find him.
Zhou Otherwise, the front foot just entered the conference room, and the back foot Zhang Yongcheng came in.
"Hello Chief!"
Zhou Ran hurriedly stood up and said loudly.
"Hehe, don't be so restrained, just call me Uncle Zhang. ”
Although Zhang Yongcheng is in the army, he also knows a little about things outside, and the more he looks at this young man, the more he likes it.
has the ability to have the ability to take responsibility, the most important thing is that this young man has a good heart, full of righteousness, although sometimes he is a little impulsive, but he is not hot-blooded and called a young man!
"Hey, okay Uncle Zhang!"
Climbing along the pole is Zhou Otherwise's housekeeping skill, give him a crack and he can drill a hole for you.
"Uncle Zhang, I want to make a military-themed TV series, but this film may need the support of our troops, so ......"
As he spoke, he handed over the script of the bright sword.
Zhang Yongcheng stretched out his hand and pressed on the script, did not turn it over, but said with a smile: "There are quite a lot of troops who assist in the filming of military films, but most of them cooperate with provincial film and television units. ”
The implication is that if there is no problem with the script, three or five hundred soldiers participating in the co-filming of Zhang Yongcheng can still pack tickets.
"Uncle Zhang, this film may be a little more. ”
The fat brother sneered.
Zhang Yongcheng smiled unabated: "As long as it's too much, I can help you try, how many people do you need?"
"At least two or three thousand, no less than 10,000!"
The fat brother trembled and gestured with his fingers.
"Huh
Zhang Yongcheng gasped and exclaimed.
