Chapter 36: The Last Lunch
"Come on, come on, after the boot-up ceremony, you can start it in the afternoon!"
Wan Yushan has been looking forward to this for a long time.
Arrange the tribute, burn incense and worship Guan Gong, cover the camera with a red cloth, and everyone takes turns to offer incense.
Everyone is respectful, hoping that Guan Gong can bless the filming smoothly and his fame will soar.
Finally, the red cloth on the camera is removed, and that's it.
After that, it was time for the reporter to interview, and the main members of the crew stood together.
"Director Wan, I heard that you have put a lot of effort into remaking the movie and received a lot of scripts, but why did you choose "Crazy Stone"?
Chen Xiao looked at this reporter, and then at Wan Yushan, this reporter definitely communicated with Wan Yushan, and the questions he asked were really TM, and the next thing must be Wan Yushan's nonsense praise of this movie.
Really.
Wan Yushan: "I am definitely very cautious about my choice of my first film, and I will choose a plot that can attract me and the audience for the first time, and "Crazy Stone" attracted me, and I believe that he will also attract the audience. ”
"Wandao ......"
"Wandao ......"
Well, they are all looking for Wan Dao, and they have one million followers on Weibo, but no one interviewed them?
However, who let these reporters be invited by Wan Yushan.
"Mr. Chen, I heard that your animation has been nominated for the Annecy Animation Festival, but most people on the Internet say that you are just lucky, what do you think?"
"What do you think? Of course, I sit and watch it on my phone, and for these people who speak with a keyboard, I usually slap my face directly with the work, but now is the opening ceremony of the movie, and I hope you can ask some things about the movie. ”
It's hard to get someone to interview you, but it's still this kind of problem that is obviously dug into the hole.
But Chen Xiao is not afraid of big things, and when he sees a pit, he has to push it sideways directly.
Maybe after the broadcast of "Cat and Mouse", if the response is average, his words will definitely be dug up, and then he will be slapped in the face madly.
But Chen Xiao thinks that "Cat and Mouse" is charming, so it is better to say it directly, and it can also be used as hype.
At noon, Wan Yushan and Chen Xiao took the crew and actors to a hotel for a big dinner.
"Everyone is let go of eating, and after this meal, you can only eat a boxed lunch, which is the last lunch!"
The meal is also a process in which the actors get to know each other.
So far, Chen Xiao only knows that Xu Shao is playing Heipi, and the other characters Wan Yushan didn't tell him, and he didn't ask, so he didn't know.
Chen Xiao himself also asked to add a scene to himself, which was the policeman at the beginning.
The director spoke, and the actors immediately let go of their reserve, eating and drinking nonsense, anyway, they didn't pay for it themselves, they earned it when they ate it.
Wan Yushan complained that the dishes here were too expensive, but his mouth was not idle, he picked expensive dishes and stuffed them into his mouth, anyway, the money was reimbursed in the investment, so it was better to eat more.
Chen Xiao was observing the actors and found that they were basically third-tier actors, who had several years of acting experience, but were not famous.
But this is also within his expectations, after all, with so much money invested, he will definitely not be able to hire good actors.
The mobile phone rang, Chen Xiao looked at the call, it was Teacher Gu from the Conservatory of Music.
Now in his mobile phone, there are really a lot of numbers of various teachers.
Mr. Gu, Mr. Sun, and Prof. Guo......
He found that he had graduated now, but he had more time to talk to his teachers than he had when he was in school.
Needless to say, Professor Guo should have done a good job of background music.
Leaving the noisy environment and outside the restaurant, Chen Xiao picked up the phone:
"Hey, Teacher Gu!"
"Xiao Chen, your background music has been prepared and sent to your mailbox, you should pay attention to it. ”
"Hey, Haole, thank you, Mr. Gu. ”
Chen Xiao found that Teacher Gu had not mentioned the money, and thought about whether he wanted to remind him, and then heard Teacher Gu say: "I studied your music score with several teachers in the school, and I think you are very thoughtful. ”
"Uh...... Mr. Gu, you know, I just read a few books casually about music, and I only scratch the surface, and I really can't talk about communication. ”
There was some silence on the other side of the phone, yes, a person who only knows the surface can write a first-class work like "The Bat", and also write enough to be considered a classic "Symphony of Destiny", although only one paragraph.
Teacher Gu also wondered if Chen Xiao deliberately pretended not to understand music and made a mess of his music composition, but after thinking about it, he felt impossible.
Then the real situation may really be what Chen Xiao said, I really don't understand much, but I have read a lot of music materials and wrote those things with my senses.
Then, Chen Xiao's talent is too terrifying.
It may also be because of this that Chen Xiao would 'Kavin' when he was working on "Destiny", and only wrote that paragraph, which is probably because of insufficient accumulation.
Thinking of this, Teacher Gu was a little expectant and asked, "Xiao Chen, can you come to our academy for classes if you have time?" ”
Huh? What kind of god twist is this?
"Teacher Gu, but I've already graduated, so it's impossible to transfer to your school. Chen Xiao hurriedly said that it was not easy for him to survive until graduation, how could he go back to school again, and he was still studying music.
Although I'm curious about music, I'm just curious, and I don't want to experience it again at all.
Teacher Gu: "I didn't tell you to go to school like a student, but I just took one day a week to come to me to learn something, which is more free than my graduate students, not only free, but also provides room and board, how about it?"
It's free, and room and board are also provided.
This treatment, no matter how you look at it, doesn't look like letting yourself learn, but like letting yourself teach.
I have to say that Chen Xiao is a little excited, it is always good to be able to learn a little more, everyone wants to be versatile, and he is no exception.
"However, Mr. Gu, you also know that I am also busy making money now, and there are more things to do, and I may not have time every week. ”
Mr. Gu really wants to say: learning music well and making money is not trivial.
But Chen Xiao, who was afraid that he finally agreed with the tendency, refused again, so he could only take a step back: "Then when do you have time, just come over directly when the time comes, the benefits are all for you to take advantage of, this can't be refused!"
Chen Xiao was about to agree, but found that the phone had hung up, was he afraid that he would regret it?
"Another conservatory student......"
Chen Xiao muttered, and then prepared to go back and continue to enjoy his meal, this is his own money, didn't you see Wan Yushan's expression when he ate, as if he was going to eat all the plates.
But soon, the phone rang again, this time with an unfamiliar phone number.
"Hey, which side?"
"Hello, is it Mr. Chen?"
"Yes. ”
"I'm Lin Changfeng's agent, you can call me Xiao Zhou, that's it...... I want to buy the copyright of the song "You at the Same Table", I don't know how much Mr. Chen is willing to pay?"
