Chapter 317: The director is in place

After looking at the script of "Old Boy" given by Jiang Hui, the members of the Dream Band readily agreed to star in the micro-movie "Old Boy". Speaking of which, the Dream Band also became popular because of the good songs provided by Jiang Hui, not to mention that in order to repay this friendship, the Dream Band will also agree to help; besides, judging from the script, this is obviously a very good idea, and it can be expected that the film will add a lot of fame to the band after it is played. Another reason is that the Dream Band is now firmly established in the music circle of the Celestial Empire, but it is not well-known in the film and television industry.

In the entertainment industry, especially in Europe and the United States, the status of film actors is the highest, and the salary is also the highest. Generally speaking, the status in the circle is that of a movie actor> a TV drama actor> a singer. But this is mainly based on popularity and status, for example, if your first-line singer is compared with a third-tier movie actor, it must be a first-line singer who is more awesome.

The director of "Old Boy" is also easier to find, after all, it is just a micro-movie, although Guanghui Film and Television has invested 10 million, an ordinary cinema movie is enough to shoot. But Jiang Hui wanted to improve some of the shortcomings of "Old Boy" in his previous life, such as poor picture quality and simple scenery, so Jiang Hui asked He Qingquan to help find a senior who graduated from their school. In fact, He Qingquan himself graduated from the directing department, but now he is focusing on his singing career and starring in "Old Boy", so Jiang Hui didn't let him be a director.

"Jiang Hui, I have already found the director of "Old Boy", a senior who is three years older than me, and now works as an assistant director of a variety show on Imperial Capital TV, called Zhao Gang, you see when it is convenient for you, I will bring him over to meet you", He Qingquan said.

"Okay, if it's convenient for you, you can bring him over this afternoon, and I'll discuss the shooting with him," Jiang Hui said.

"It's as soon as possible, many scenes in "Old Boy" are filmed in schools, and it is better to shoot them during the National Day holiday, otherwise it is really difficult to find a school," He Qingquan said.

"I'll discuss with our school to see if we can take a photo of the campus of the High School Affiliated to Imperial University of Technology," Jiang Hui said.

……

Guanghui Film and Television Co., Ltd. is still in the process of registration, although Jiang Hui has asked a few people from several brother companies such as Tudou.com and School Intranet who are willing to come to Guanghui Film and Television to develop, but it is relatively the company's start-up period, and many things still need Jiang Hui to check by himself.

Zhao Gang is only twenty-six years old this year, although he heard He Qingquan say that he is very talented, but Jiang Hui has never seen it after all, so when he met in the afternoon, the three of them met in the Polytechnic Building.

"Jiang Hui, this is the Zhao Gang I told you. Director Zhao, this is Mr. Jiang, the general manager of Guanghui Film and Television, and there are many companies such as Intranet, Tudou.com, and Meituan.com under the leadership of Guanghui Film and Television, and Guanghui Film and Television must have a bright future under the leadership of Mr. Jiang", He Qingquan said with a smile.

"Mr. Jiang, hello, please take care of me in the future", Zhao Gang bowed slightly and said to Jiang Hui.

In the entertainment industry, the best thing is not a first-line celebrity, not a director, not a media, but an investor. The power of capital is everywhere. Maybe some particularly good directors can be relatively strong in terms of investment and have a greater say in the actors, but the vast majority of directors, in the face of the requirements of investors, as long as they are not too excessive, will be satisfied.

"Director Zhao, I heard Brother Quan say a lot of your glorious deeds, but he praised you as the Spielberg and Cameron of the future Celestial Empire, and I hope that we will cooperate happily in the future," Jiang Hui said casually. The sedan chair was picked by everyone, anyway, it was a compliment that didn't want money, and Jiang Hui was willing to sell his favor to He Qingquan.

"Mr. Jiang has won the award, I have read the script of "Old Boy", it is very good, not to mention making it into a micro-movie, even if it is made into a theatrical movie, it is enough", Zhao Gang said.

"There are a lot of places full of black humor in "Old Boy", if it is broadcast in theaters, it is estimated that it will not pass the level of radio and television, but it is the Internet video, which is currently a gray area of supervision, as long as it is not very out of line, it is generally not a big problem. That's why I thought about making Old Boy into a short film and then playing it on Tudou.com," Jiang Hui said.

"That's what you said, the approval of this card is indeed strict," Zhao Gang said.

"This micro-film is just a test of Guanghui Film and Television, and in the future, we will continue to launch various micro-films, TV series, cinema films, variety shows, etc., and then we will run in the personnel first," Jiang Hui said.

"Mr. Jiang, my personnel relationship is still on Imperial Capital TV for the time being, if Mr. Jiang does not dislike it, I can officially sign a contract with Guanghui Film and Television and become an employee of the company," Zhao Gang said.

Although Zhao Gang is a versatile and high-achieving student, it is indeed not so easy to get ahead and direct the program alone in a TV station with a relatively strong seniority. It can even be said that without the help of nobles, it is impossible to have the opportunity to direct the show alone in the next five years. Although Guanghui Film and Television has just been established, and even the industrial and commercial registration has not yet been completed, only Zhao Gang studies the development history of Guanghui Group and analyzes the strength of its companies, and he knows that for him now, it is definitely a very good choice to jump to Guanghui Film and Television.

First of all, Zhao Gang and He Qingquan are more familiar, He Qingquan's family background Zhao Gang has a certain understanding, and the relationship between He Qingquan and Jiang Hui seems to be very good, so Zhao Gang does not have to worry about not being reused after entering the company; secondly, Guanghui Film and Television has just been established, if Zhao Gang comes in now, he is the first director of the company, and he is also a veteran figure, Jiang Hui will definitely not treat him badly; moreover, the script of "Old Boy" made Zhao Gang see the momentum of the fire, "Old Boy" Finally, this is Zhao Gang's first independent director of a film, although it is a micro-film, but Guanghui Film and Television has invested 10 million yuan, so that Zhao Gang is full of confidence in the company, and hopes that there will be more opportunities to direct films alone in the future.

"Welcome Director Zhao to join, I will arrange the personnel of the personnel department to talk to you about the treatment method", Jiang Hui said with a smile.

"Jiang Hui, now that "Old Boy" has been decided, the director and starring role, whether the other roles will take this opportunity, you and Director Zhao will definitely do it", He Qingquan said.

In this micro-film, the most important roles are played by the four members of the Dream Band, and there are several supporting roles, and the rest are extras, so it is easy to determine.
