140. There is no fear

Wang Feiyun's thinking really brought a lot of inspiration to Xu Shi, and the plot arrangement was also very good, so Xu Shi was ready to see the final results before making a decision.

Now Xu Shi needs to interview the director, and he has already called the two people recommended by Cheng Guochao, said his purpose, and saw what they meant.

One of the directors said that he couldn't accept Xu Shi's conditions, so he refused directly, and the other was interested in cooperating.

Xu Shi also contacted some graduates of the directing department through Cheng Guochao's channel, all of whom had excellent skills, and he also made the conditions clear, and a total of three people said they could accept it.

Today is the time for the interview, Xu Shi and Cheng Guochao and a person in charge of the corn side.

Although the investment has not yet been confirmed, Corn has decided to join Xu Shi's train, no matter what Xu Shi's script is, with his courage to work hard, Corn will definitely not miss this opportunity.

In fact, there are other companies that want to invest, but they are rejected by Xu Shi, it is not easy to deal with too many company interests, and Xu Shi does not want to focus on intrigue.

As for the fear of corn dominance?

This Xu Shizhi is not worried, anyway, it has been negotiated, whether it is in the management of the crew, the filming of the actors, or the distribution, it only has priority, and there is no decision, the real decision is still in Xu Shi's hands, so Xu Shi is not afraid at all.

The first to come was a student of the director department of Chinese opera, named Zhang Kui, although the name is five big and three thick, but his appearance is polite.

Xu Shi didn't waste time, whoever came first would have a direct interview, and Zhang Kui would come an hour in advance, so he would interview directly.

"Zhang Kui, did you want to bring your work?" Xu Shi asked directly.

Zhang Kui didn't expect Jingwumen's work efficiency to be so high, he came early this time just to leave a good impression on the interviewer, but who knew that he would start in advance so soon.

However, Zhang Kui was also prepared, and when he heard this, he immediately took out the things he brought, and said, "I have brought them all, please take a look at them." ”

As he spoke, he took two steps forward and handed it over with both hands, and Xu Shi also stood up and took it.

Xu Shi didn't understand the method of filming the movie, so this step was handed over to Cheng Guochao and the people on the corn side to be responsible for the review, and he was chatting with Zhang Kui.

"Zhang Kui, can you tell me why you chose to come? I don't mean anything else, just small talk, after all, you also know the conditions we offered. Xu Shi asked.

Zhang Kui said seriously: "I want to learn from the crew first, hone my skills and abilities, and increase my contacts by the way, which is why I chose it." ”

He said it very seriously, but Xu Shi heard something different from his tone, he spoke too smoothly without any emotion, which seemed to be a line that had been memorized a long time ago.

Xu Shi smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, don't talk empty words, let's put it this way, the reason why you came here will not be the reason why you are selected or eliminated, you can boldly say, I want to hear your real thoughts." ”

Zhang Kui originally wanted to explain, but when he saw Xu Shi's eyes, he knew that he hadn't deceived him, so he immediately smiled wryly and said: "Mr. Xu, don't look at me as just graduated, but I know the situation in the director industry very well, and I have experienced a lot of setbacks."

Students like us don't want to make blockbuster films, but no one will invest in us even some small-budget movies.

Even if it is an investment, there will be a large number of requirements, and these are all trivial things, and even more so, they directly treat us as ......."

Speaking of the end, Zhang Kui had an unspeakable feeling, Xu Shi didn't quite understand, but Guochao did understand it immediately, and whispered in his ear: "Pimp." ”

As soon as he said this, Xu Shi immediately understood.

Zhang Kui continued: "Instead of becoming that kind of person, and not getting great exercise and progress, I might as well come to you to try, even if I don't have any rights, at least I can really shoot blockbusters."

Gaining experience in shooting blockbusters, it was a very good choice for me. ”

After Zhang Kui finished speaking, he looked at Xu Shi with some apprehension, and Xu Shi smiled: "Don't worry, what I just said has been valid, you don't have to worry." ”

Immediately, the people on Cheng Guochao's side and the corn side began to ask Zhang Kui professionally, especially about the handling of some shots and a lot of professional knowledge, Zhang Kui answered fluently in this regard, and seemed extremely confident.

After the inquiry, Cheng Guochao nodded and said, "Okay, let's get here first, you go back and wait for the news, no matter what, the day after tomorrow at the latest, we will call you." ”

"Thank you. ”

Not long after Zhang Kui left, the other two students who had just graduated from the directing department also came, Xu Shi asked as usual and got their respective answers, and Cheng Guochao also followed the steps.

The last one to come was the old director Pingfeng recommended by Cheng Guochao, this time Cheng Guochao did not stay at the scene, but left first, he needed to avoid suspicion.

And the main purpose of his coming is to inspect the technical level of these people, and this Pingfeng obviously doesn't need to inspect these.

In fact, Xu Shi and the others are inclined to Pingfeng in their hearts, after all, there is a lot of experience, as long as he agrees to Xu Shi's conditions, then he can basically be selected.

It's just that this director Pingfeng doesn't seem to agree to their conditions as happily as he said on the phone, but he has made a lot of conditions.

"Mr. Xu, as a director who has been in the industry for more than ten years, I still have control over the film, and I also have enough experience in crew management.

As long as you hand over the movie to me to shoot, I guarantee that the shooting will satisfy you, and I also have a familiar team, all of whom are people who have been filming with me for a long time, and the technical level is absolutely passable.

And if I had my control, the cost they would have been much less. After the director came, he began to talk about it.

Xu Shi can be sure that this person is not here to be a puppet director at all, but to take the lead, and even have the right to manage everything in the crew.

And not only that, he actually wants the financial power of the crew, is this a joke with himself?

Xu Shi was really about to laugh when he heard it, it is estimated that this person knew that he only invited two old directors, and one of them did not come, so he had no fear and thought that he could only choose him.

Xu Shi doesn't know where he got his confidence, the two recommended by Cheng Guochao are not very famous, and they have not made really good movies over the years, whether it is word-of-mouth or box office.

But now that he really has such a big breath, does he really think that he has no one but him?

In fact, Pingfeng really thinks so in his heart, he is now the best candidate for Xu Shi, and others are either not as capable as him, or they will not agree to Xu Shi's conditions, so he is so fearless.

In fact, he is also asking for a price, waiting for Xu Shi to repay the money, as long as Xu Shi starts to talk to him, then he will be able to get enough benefits and benefits from it.

He doesn't really want all the dominance, so if that's the case, why bother looking for him?

His main purpose is still a certain degree of financial power, and as for what the movie will look like, he doesn't care about it now.
