Leaning on Shichahai, in a small bar called Lotus Pond Moonlight.

Zhang Xu put the guitar in the corner next to him, held the chilled watermelon juice in front of him with both hands, and looked at Chen Chuliang who was sitting opposite him quite restrainedly.

I don't know what Chen Chuliang meant by asking him to talk.

It felt sudden!

"Let's explain the purpose first. ”

Chen Chuliang saw that the other party was a little afraid of himself, so he went straight to the point and said: "You sing very well." I wonder if you're interested in singing the theme song of a movie?"

"Sing the theme song of the movie?" Zhang Xu made up what he wanted to do in his mind. I don't dare to confirm that this kind of good thing will hit my head all at once. This is no less than someone directly telling him that the actor in a movie is you, why not?

You must know that in so many art universities in Yenching, how many students want to be famous by smashing their heads. There are even girls who do not hesitate to sacrifice their bodies to be able to get the female N number of a movie.

And sing the theme song for a movie. If this movie has a good reputation, the corresponding theme song will definitely be more classic, and the people who sing will also be popular, which is definitely an opportunity to become famous. Although it is not as good as an actor who can appear on the silver screen, for Zhang Xu, who is studying music, this is the biggest stage.

'Gollum!'

Zhang Xu swallowed.

Then he whispered: "Classmate, aren't you making fun of me." ”

Chen Chuliang was about the same age as Zhang Xu, and Zhang Xu was skeptical of what he said.

Normal people think so.

After all, pies will not fall from the sky, and the two of them can't even say that they can give away such a big benefit when they meet in Pingshui, why?

Chen Chuliang's fingers tapped lightly on the table, the reason why he was looking for this singer was because the other party had sung Wu Bai's songs at a good level, if he was asked to sing the theme song of the movie he was going to shoot, it should be able to make people feel refreshed, after all, the pop songs of this era are still Cantonese songs from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and there are few songs in the mainland that are highly sung except for a very few folk songs. Instead of spending a lot of money to hire singers who have become famous, it is better to find a malleable newcomer to cultivate, after all, the cost of small-budget movies from actors to production must be controlled within a small range.

"The film is a low-budget film, and of course, it will not be released in theaters, presumably on online video sites. So whether it's the cast or the behind-the-scenes production, they are basically newcomers. It may not pay too much, but it's a little more than what you're earning now by singing on the Silver Ingot Bridge. Are you going or not?"

didn't throw out a high price, Chen Chuliang's plan was to find a group of newcomers and make an original movie Charlotte Troubles.

Zhang Xu understood the reason why the other party let him sing, nodded and said, "I probably know your purpose." There are many students in Chinese opera, and they invest thousands or tens of thousands of dollars to find actors from some schools to make small movies. It's all about fame. It doesn't matter what the pay is, it's rare to have such a chance to exercise. By the way, you're a student of the directing department, right?

It can be seen that Zhang Xu is not a particularly greedy person, and he actually said such words that focus on participation. He also asked Chen Chuliang where he studied. Chen Chuliang said: "You have a good mentality. I'm not what you call an art university student, though. I just want to make a movie that I think is good, to commemorate what I think I want to commemorate, and to keep my youth every day. ”

I think Chen Chuliang is artistic in speaking. Zhang Xu took a sip of watermelon juice. The previous apprehension was put away. After all, they all know that the peer in front of him also wants to make a small-budget movie, not the kind of big scene that invests tens of millions of dollars at every turn, and he can still do it. And Chen Chuliang said that he is not a student of the University of Arts, and he is probably a person who wants to develop his career in the film industry.

All walks of life are from small to big.

Make small movies now, and when you become famous in the future, you will definitely be able to take on bigger films.

This is ambition, and there are very few things to do in one step.

Familiar with Chen Chuliang's intentions, Zhang Xu became more talkative. also actively talked with Chen Chuliang about the theme song of the small movie.

"I haven't chosen a song for the theme song of this little movie, right? I've written some songs myself, and if I can, I'd like to use the songs I wrote as the theme songs. Can I play it to you right now?

Zhang Xu introduced the songs he usually writes to add to Chen Chuliang's short movies, and he occasionally hums a one. What you write yourself, you will always think is the best. Since the other party wants to make a small movie, if the theme song can use his own song, Zhang Xu can do it without compensation.

Chen Chuliang saw that the other party was quite serious and recommended himself, and felt that this guy was quite troublesome. I couldn't bear to dampen his enthusiasm, and said, "The theme song is already there, but the interlude can consider adding the song you wrote." But it has to be made in harmony with the script. It's just that until now, the production team that I was going to shoot a small movie found you and another actor. ”

"Classmate, you're too hasty. Even the director was not confirmed, so he wanted to find actors and singers to sing the theme song. ”

Zhang Xu looked at Chen Chuliang with a not very professional eye.

After all, he is a Chinese opera student, and the most important candidate for a movie is the director.

After all, the director is sure.

Finalize the script again.

Then there is the casting of the various characters in the script.

Finally, there is shooting, production, theme song, publicity, etc., a series of side matches.

Now I heard that Chen Chuliang wanted to make a small movie, but he didn't even choose a director.

Zhang Xu felt that he was making a movie to play tickets. I couldn't help but be a little worried in my words, and said, "Classmate, you can't burn money like this." Otherwise, I'll introduce you to someone. This person is a native of my Northeast who is studying in the directing department of Yenching Film Academy, and we met in the hometown association. He is a little famous at the Yenching Film Academy, has also shot two small films, and has also created many classic stage plays. ”

feels that Chen Chuliang wants to burn money to play tickets if he wants a small movie, and Zhang Xu is very serious about it. Immediately introduce Chen Chuliang to the most important character in a small movie - the director!

Chen Chuliang saw that Zhang Xu was very enthusiastic, and he couldn't bear to refuse, anyway, the director didn't find it, so he said, "Yes." Why don't you call your fellow now?"

Zhang Xu didn't expect Chen Chuliang to be so easy to speak, and said with a smile: "That's it, I'll fight right away." ”

As he spoke, he took out his phone.

Soon the phone was connected, and Zhang Xu said to the person on the other side of the phone in front of Chen Chuliang: "Big Demon, it's me, Zhang Xu." Are you free now? ”

"Yes!" said the man on the other side.

Zhang Xu said: "I know a person who wants to make a small-budget movie, and now there is a shortage of directors, I recommended you to him, and the other party promised to see you, you see, come over and talk when you have time now?"

The voice on the phone suddenly became a few dozen decibels: "Hold the grass." Is this true? Okay, I'll be right here. Where are you?"

Obviously in a hurry, after all, being able to make movies while still in college is very important to anyone studying directing.

Zhang Xu said: "On this side of the silver ingot bridge, the moonlight small bar on the lotus pond. I'm waiting for you here. ”

Put the place name on it.

Knowing that his fellow countryman who was obsessed with the director immediately rushed over, Zhang Xu successfully completed the task and said to Chen Chuliang: "My fellow countryman will come over immediately!"
