Chapter 060: On the set
After the movie is established, it is time to prepare for filming.
Yang Qiu is in charge of external affairs, and as for film casting and internal affairs, Bu Wancang and Zha Liangjian are in charge.
Although sometimes Bu Wancang is also very fond of newcomers, at this time, for the sake of insurance, the protagonist of "Women and Tigers" did not let Yang Qiu play, but found another famous role outside.
For example, the actor is looking for Hongwei's husband Yan Hua, and the heroine is looking for actress Zhou Manhua, who has been in the film for four years.
Yan Hua doesn't need to say much, and this Zhou Manhua has starred in the first generation of "The Family of Gold Powder" in Leng Qingqiu, and his temperament and beauty can be imagined.
However, Yang Qiu was not completely fruitless, and got the role of male No. 3.
As for the company's external affairs that Yang Qiu is responsible for, such as recruiting various film crews, it is also a big project.
Fortunately, the most important photographer in the filming process, Bu Wancang, has his own familiar personnel, so there is no need for Yang Qiu to look for it outside.
As for the other staff, Hou Wangmiao and Beidi Street grabbed a lot of them, but they didn't have to worry.
But this field alone has become a big problem.
In the past, when they were in Yonghua, they had their own set and never suffered from having no place to film.
Now that it's out, Yonghua's set is never rented out, so there's no need to think about it. And a few sets of Pak Tai Street and Hou Wang Temple are not so free for you to use.
Yang Qiu just ran the set two days ago, and he was half tired to death.
He ran all over the Daguan Studios in Diamond Hill, the Asian Studios in Ngauchi Bay, the Huada Studios in Tsuen Wan, and the seven or eight studios in Pak Tai Street and Hau Wong Temple, but none of them were idle.
These days, the set is in short supply.
Think about it 41 years before the fall of Xiangjiang, the highest rent for a Cantonese film was only 15,000, but after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the rent jumped to the lowest of 15,000.
The smallest is ten times the distance, how can it rise like this if it is not in short supply.
But what if there is no set now?
Cold!
I'm going to have to keep looking.
So in the past two days, Yang Qiu has been running to Houwangmiao and Beidi Street every day, looking for acquaintances to ask for relationships, and meeting a lot of people, and the directors of several studios are a little scared when they see him.
"Why don't you ask Uncle Bu for help? Liu Lianghua, who had figured out the ins and outs, looked at Yang Qiu with disdain and said.
Standing outside the door of the Shiguang studio, looking at the crowds on the set, Yang Qiu shook his head and said casually: "Heh, do you want to tell Director Bu about such a trivial matter, do you want to prove that you are very incompetent?"
"You!"
Liu Lianghua raised her finger with an angry face, frowned very entangledly, and put down her hand helplessly and said, "Okay, I will see how capable you are." β
"I just don't believe it, there's no businessman in this world who doesn't want to make money. After Yang Qiu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"What do you mean?"
Yang Qiu's words made Liu Lianghua's mind confused, but when he saw Yang Qiu leaving, he also walked up behind his buttocks.
The two of them walked like this for less than two steps, and then walked to a wonton stall that could be seen all over the streets of Hou Wangmiao. Yang Qiugang was about to continue walking, but suddenly thought about it sideways and stopped.
"Whew-"
"What are you doing?"
Liu Lianghua next to her asked suspiciously, and glanced at the diner who was sitting next to the wonton stall and was eating noodles and smacking loudly.
Yang Qiu ignored her, but looked at the guest who was immersed in bitterness and asked, "Li Hanxiang, why are you here?"
"Whew-"
Li Hanxiang, who was eating a lot, obviously didn't expect someone to call him at this time, so he raised his head and said in surprise before he swallowed the noodles and said in surprise: "The pot is ββ!"
"Ahem!"
Li Hanxiang hurriedly swallowed the noodles in his mouth, and shouted, "Brother." How do you ...... Yo yo yo yo ......" He obviously saw the beautiful woman following behind Yang Qiu, and hurriedly greeted with a black face and a mouthful of white teeth: "Yo, beauty, hello!"
"You...... Hello. Liu Lianghua's face also darkened a little, and she was disgusted.
"Beauty, you and my brother ......"
"Ahemββ!" Yang Qiu was afraid that he would say nonsense out of tune, so he hurriedly interrupted Li Hanxiang, looked at the door of the Youqiao studio next to him, and asked, "What, you took on private work again?"
"No, brother, how can there be so many private jobs. Li Hanxiang stood up, gestured at the set of Youqiao and said, "Director Li Ping apologizes for taking us to film in it." β
Yang Qiu suddenly asked, "The scene of the Great Wall?"
"It's not the Great Wall, it's still somewhere. Li Hanxiang felt a little inexplicable.
"Well, no, haven't you been on the Huada set?"
"There are a lot of plays, and there is not enough Huada on one set. β
ββ¦β¦β
"Really, four films have been opened in a row, and there are also our people filming on the Shiguang set next to it. Looking at Yang Qiu's face that didn't know whether it was an egg pain or a headache, Li Hanxiang hurriedly stabbed again.
This is really true, the rich flow oil, and the poor starve to death!
I want him Yang Qiu to have a set, no, I haven't found a studio, the Great Wall has already chartered three studios, and that's how people come from being more popular than others.
But it's not right, Yang Qiu frowned and asked, "You two sheds are used?"
"Nope. Li Hanxiang shook his head and replied, "Only shed A was used." β
"What about Shed B?"
"Studio B?" Li Hanxiang scratched his head and thought for a while before saying: "The "Nezha vs. Red Child" in the morning has just finished filming, and it should be empty now." β
Empty?
The fact that the set can be empty in broad daylight proves that the time is not very tight! Yang Qiu thought about it, and walked towards the Youqiao studio.
"Hey, brother, what are you doing?"
"Look for Director Xu. β
The big bosses of various studios, such as Li Zuyong of Yonghua, basically didn't care about the practice on the set, but invited people back to be the director one by one to share their worries, such as Lu Yuanliang, the director of Yonghua Studio.
This is still the case on the set of Youqiao, and even worse.
For example, the land on the set of Youqiao belongs to Cao Dahua's brother-in-law Mei Youzhuo. Cao Dahua rented land from his brother-in-law, built a house and built a Youqiao studio. Then he went to act by himself, and found a person named Xu Lize to be the factory director to help him manage it.
You say it's unforgiving......
As a result, Yang Qiu ran to the factory director's office, but no one was there, and he went to the manager's office next door to find the manager surnamed Zhang, but he was also not there; but he couldn't, and finally blocked Lu Peiren, the field director of Youqiao, at the door of the office.
"I said a long time ago, Mr. Yang, now Youqiao really has no shed. Lu Peiren was also a big one, looking at the three people in front of him and saying bitterly.
"Director Lu, I just saw it, and Shed B is still empty. β
Lu Peisheng hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "That's not good, our young owner will use it soon." β
"Young owner?"
"Cao Dahua. β
"Another Cantonese film?"
"Cantonese. β
"Huang Feihong?"
"It's not. β
"If you can squeeze him in time, we don't need to use it right away, just wait behind him. β
