The host gave a brief introduction to the crew leaders.

The first to take the stage are the producers, as well as the co-producers.

We all know that the director is the biggest in the crew, because the director has the right to decide, in fact, this is not the case, the director is actually a part-time worker.

And the producer is the boss, the real boss, that is, the investor. The co-producer is the small boss.

We can think of it as a founder and a co-founder in a company.

The producer first came to the stage, pressed the switch, tapped the microphone, and blew twice to make sure that the microphone could be used normally, "Friends, gentlemen, ladies, at this juncture of summer, first of all, congratulations on the smooth start of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and I wish the box office to climb steadily.

As the producer of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", ......"

In fact, the producer's speech is just some official words and clichés.

Jiang Xin listened carefully to the producer's speech, and participated in the start-up ceremony for the first time, for fear that he would make a fool of himself.

Heng Wenwei on the side is different.

Heng Wenwei said that he had also been a starring actor two or three times, and the opening ceremony was not the first time, he looked at Jiang Xin, who was really fascinated, and turned his head sideways towards Jiang Xin, leaning away, "Teacher Jiang, I heard that you have made more than a thousand films, I want to ask you some questions, can you see it?"

The first half of Heng Wenwei's sentence is a kind of irony, satirizing that Jiang Xin did not graduate from a professional class, so he was born in a trick, isn't running a trick just making movies and TV series every day?

Sometimes two or three shows a day, sometimes one or two.

After three years, isn't it more than a thousand films?

In the crew, as long as you are not a very famous actor, most of the actors who graduated from the college class look down on the actors who were born in the dragon suit.

And the second half of the sentence is really a problem for Jiang Xin.

Jiang Xin didn't feel that it was a shame to play tricks in Hengdian before, but felt that it was a kind of experience.

Jiang Xin heard Heng Wenwei's words, "Teacher Heng, if you don't know the problem, how will I know?"

Heng Wenwei didn't care how modest Jiang Xin was, and asked directly: "Teacher Jiang, do you know what the producer is responsible for?"

Ordinary people, or ordinary actors, deal with directors, and many people will think that the producer is a certain department in the crew, or the department responsible for producing the film.

As long as you are not in the director industry, you basically don't know the role of the producer.

Heng Wenwei can almost be sure that Jiang Xin, an actor who has not graduated from a college class and has never been a starring actor, does not know what the producer is responsible for.

At most, he can only say that the producer is the investor, but his question is what the producer does, if Jiang Xin answers this sentence, then he can pick a word and make him unable to get off the stage.

Besides, I also filmed the second TV series, so I got to know the producer.

Jiang Xin glanced at the producer who was speaking on the stage, and said to Heng Wenwei: "The investor of the film." ”

As soon as the words came out, I instantly understood in my heart that Heng Wenwei's question was not so simple, could it be that Heng Wenwei asked what role the producer of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" was responsible for?

I saw a smile on the corner of Heng Wenwei's mouth, and just as he was about to speak, Jiang Xin grabbed the conversation and continued to add: "Choose the script, hire the director, photographer, and actor."

Dispatch a representative of the film producer to manage the production funds.

Reviewing the filming budget, controlling the whole process of filmmaking, and determining the market for the film?

In short, it is responsible for the whole of the movie. ”

Jiang Xin threw out all the matters that he might be responsible for, and thought secretly: "Lin Shuyi is not by his side, and he is a newcomer, so it is really easy to make a fool of himself." ”

I saw that the corners of Heng Wenwei's mouth with a smile gradually turned into a straight line, and he put away his smile.

Looking at this expression, you can know that Jiang Xin's answer is correct.

In fact, we may often see directors say that the funds are not enough, which is either a wrong statement or a perfunctory statement by the director.

It is not the director who really decides the crew's funds, but the legendary producer, and the money that others pay, can you let the director team squander it? That is impossible.

Heng Wenwei saw that Jiang Xin had already answered his question, and asked again: "Mr. Jiang, I still have a question that I don't understand, what kind of work do you say this producer is mainly responsible for?"

Heng Wenwei thought secretly: "Producers and producers are actually the easiest to confuse, not to mention that you are a former actor, even if you have played the leading role, it is easy to get confused." ”

Jiang Xin knew from the previous question that Heng Wenwei's question was by no means as simple as that sentence, and answered: "Responsible for preliminary preparation, formation of film crew, overall planning of scripts, cost accounting of filming funds, financial review, shooting and production, ......"

The more Jiang Xin spoke, the more he felt wrong, and his voice became smaller and smaller, although he felt that what he said was right, but it felt so similar to the producer's work.

Heng Wenwei was on the side, and whenever Jiang Xin said a responsible matter, he would say that he was right, so as to mislead Jiang Xin.

I thought that Jiang Xin would be fooled by his misdirection, but I didn't expect that Jiang Xin's next sentence disappointed Heng Wenwei.

Jiang Xin added: "The producer is responsible for the pre-production of the film, and the producer is responsible for the mid-stage of the film. ”

The addition of a sentence disappointed Heng Wenwei in his heart.

In fact, as Jiang Xin said, the producer is responsible for the overall situation of the mid-term film.

If you think of making movies as a normal production operation of a company.

Then, the producer, that is, the investor, is equivalent to the largest shareholder, holding a large stake in the company.

The producer, who is equivalent to the chairman, is responsible for the overall operation and the general direction of the company. In a large company, it is difficult to meet the chairman because he does not need to do it himself at all, but leaves everything to a professional manager.

This professional manager is the director.

The director, equivalent to the general manager, is responsible for the coordination and operation of various departments. It plays a direct role in the company's performance.

There is a saying in China that there is no actor in the world who has poor acting skills, but there is a director who can't guide actors.

In fact, it is about the importance of directing.

Heng Wenwei saw that all the questions he thought were rare were answered by Jiang Xin in an orderly manner, and he couldn't help but glance at Jiang Xin a few times.

"Teacher Jiang Xin, you are worthy of being a person who has made more than a thousand films, and it is no wonder that Lin Pingzhi came to audition this time, just say that you know more about the crew than I know. ”

Heng Wenwei was unconvinced and sarcastic, while Jiang Xin pretended to be modest, "Teacher Heng is really polite, in fact, as a leading actor for many years, you don't know these problems, you just want to test me as a newcomer." ”

Jiang Xin didn't answer Heng Wenwei's sarcasm at all, but just replied to Heng Wenwei's next sentence, which meant to tell him, don't bully me for being a newcomer.
