Scene 2 is a set on the east side of the set, where the policeman Meng He and Chen Kang, the mastermind behind the serial killings, first meet.

Du An's first to come in, moved a box and sat on it, watching the people behind him come in one after another: the photographer Chen Xin with a gloomy face, the camera assistant Zhou Yu with a drooping head, the scene reporter Wei Nanchuan with a bitter face, and the leading actor Zhang Jiayi with a solemn face......

Scene 2 was originally built for filming, so naturally there would be no stools specially prepared for them to sit on, so these people came in and thought of their own ways: Zhou Yu dragged a box over and let Chen Xin sit on it, and he himself picked up a piece of cardboard and spread it on the ground and sat down; The props in the film "tool table" have the most people sitting on it, Zhu Yuchen, Zhang Yi, and two lighting engineers and an art director, all sitting on it, if it weren't for the props shouting "Don't break the table!", the people who sat on it were designated more; and the props master was the most eye-catching- He sat on the prop execution chair in Field 2, with two drills facing his temples on either side of his head, and the sight made people's hearts pimple, and he was the only one who could sit comfortably.

"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet......"

Duane spoke over the loudspeaker, and the voices of the people who were talking to each other at the scene gradually lowered until they were gone.

"Okay, let's start the meeting. The meeting mainly discussed several issues, the first of which was the theft of film that had just occurred......"

Duane looked at the notebook on his lap and said, not using the speaker again.

This book was actually the manuscript script he had at the beginning, and while waiting for the staff to come in, he hurried to write down the key points of today's meeting on the blank page above.

“…… Since the incident has already happened, there is no point in blaming each other, what we need to figure out is why it happened, and what we can do to prevent the incident from happening again. ”

After Du An finished speaking, his eyes looked over everyone's bodies one by one, and everyone who came into contact with him immediately avoided it, and the photography assistant Zhou Yu looked angry, as if he had something to say, but he didn't know what he thought, this person finally twisted his head to the side and snorted.

Duane suddenly smiled, his eyes lit up.

What a familiar scene!

He studied management, and he had seen many times in those mock meetings in school.

He didn't understand the director, even if he had read a lot of books about directing in the past two days, this knowledge was only on paper, but when he saw the moment in front of him, and then linked to the exposition he had seen in those books before, he suddenly found that being a director and doing management actually have a lot in common.

This made him suddenly come to his senses: he may be a layman when he is a director, but management is his theoretical specialty! Especially since they are only a small crew, and now there are only about 20 members of the meeting, which is exactly within the scope of his management ability.

"Since they won't say anything, then I'll name them. Zhou Yu, tell me about it. ”

Zhou Yu, who was named, looked at Du An and opened his mouth to speak, but his mouth moved, and he still didn't open it.

Duane was not discouraged at all, he had seen this situation in the mock meetings in the school class I don't know how many times, and he was completely familiar with it.

"Now it's all a democratic-dominated society, you can say whatever you want, who can stop you? And you're a camera assistant, you're in charge of the film, and now that something happens, you're also responsible for it. ”

As soon as he heard that the fire burned on his head, Zhou Yu couldn't hold it back, and hurriedly said: "I put the film into the warehouse yesterday, and I remember it on the list!" He looked at everyone again and said, "Okay, then I'll tell you, I think this kind of thing will happen, it's all because of the porter invited by Producer Shu! Everyone knows that the porter has bad ears, even if there is some movement on the set, he can't hear it at all, and I even think that even if someone climbs over the wall next to him, he can't hear it!" Besides, when the thief breaks the door, he doesn't make a sound, so that no one else can hear it, so the film was stolen, and it's not his fault?"

"Isn't that great? Well, the reason has been found, and the next step is to prevent this from happening again," Duane said. He paused, and then said, "I'll mention yì, resign the porter, and replace it with a more suitable person, at least deaf and clear-sighted, do you have any opinions?"

Chen Xin frowned and said, "Director Du, Uncle Zhang is so old, he is relying on this job to support himself, you just quit him like this, isn't it ......" said, and glared at Zhou Yu, so frightened that Zhou Yu shrunk his shoulders.

He knew that Chen Xin would react like this after he said it, so he didn't say it all the time.

Du An looked at everyone's reactions, and there were several people who thought the same as Chen Xin.

He patiently said to Chen Xin: "Chen Photography, we are a business, not charity, there are incompetent employees, that is definitely not usable, to put it mildly, it will even drag down the entire enterprise! Of course, enterprises also need to be humanized and people-oriented, and Uncle Zhang's situation is indeed special, so when I am dismissed, I will let the finance pay an extra severance pay." And you know, before we came here, didn't Uncle Zhang still live well? Someone will hire him, and I don't think you need to worry about that. ”

Zhu Yuchen at the bottom muttered to Zhang Yi next to him: "Do business? ”

Du An was different from Uncle Zhang, Zhu Yuchen sat close to him, just heard it, and said: "I think there is no difference between making movies and doing business in essence." Enterprises make products, and our crew also has products, and movies are our products. ”

Successfully grafted the director's work to management and returned to his old profession, Du An's more and more energetic he said, and soon set the tone of the first topic: dismiss Uncle Zhang and hire a suitable night watchman, he is responsible for this matter himself - no way, small crew, only one producer, life production, on-site production, and production production are all done by one producer, and now he is also the producer, so naturally he is in charge of this matter.

"The second topic is the filming plan of the film. The film was stolen, and everyone saw the attitude of the police, and there was basically no need to expect to recover the film, so our work is going to start again, at this point, Wei Nanchuan, you are more tired, hurry up and make a new shooting plan, don't follow the previous plan, the scenes are separated, one scene is filmed and then another, and the actors' scenes are also concentrated......"

After reading the movies and books in the past few days, Duane also realized how stupid it was to shoot according to the order of the images in his mind: first, according to the order in which time and space are disrupted, it is often filmed in the No. 1 scene today, the No. 2 scene tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow to the No. 3 scene, which wastes a lot of time and manpower to prepare; secondly, according to that order, the actors' roles are not concentrated and jumpy, and some actors have to wait for the next scene even though they don't have many scenes, which is also a burden for the actors, which is not conducive to the actors' feelings。 So since I've re-filmed, let's make a shooting plan based on the experience of our predecessors in the industry.

There was no objection to this issue, and after Wei Nanchuan said some of his suggestions and were adopted, they were quickly unanimously voted through.

"The third issue is the artistic style of the film. Here, the artist, the set, the props and the camera crew focus on listening, we are shooting horror and suspense films, why do you always make the pictures so bright and cheerful? Especially the set and props team, you look at these sets, where is a little scary?"

The scenographer opened his mouth and said: these are the ones that your old man nodded at the beginning. But seeing that Duane was now in full swing, he shrank his head and still held back the words in his stomach.

"And the prop you are sitting on," Duane said, pointing to Wei Nanchuan who was sitting in the execution chair, "What's the difference between this and the chair at our house? ”

The prop master, who originally opened his mouth to refute, heard the second half of Duane's words, and swallowed the words back into his stomach: he opened his mouth to refute now, wouldn't it seem that he was "unprofessional"?

“…… The fourth topic is the issue of lunch boxes. ”

Hearing the words "lunch box problem", everyone couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Can this thing also be considered a topic?

Du An looked serious and continued: "Regarding the crew's box lunch, if you are not satisfied, please raise your hand,"

This topic is not a whim for him, but in the past two days, he has indeed seen many people dissatisfied with the box lunch. For example, yesterday, he saw that Zhu Yuchen only ate two bites, and he didn't eat most of the dishes left.

He was still thinking that if he didn't raise his hand, wouldn't these people dare not raise his hand? Would he take the lead in raising his hand against his will to encourage them? No, the facts soon proved that he was thinking too much.

Almost as soon as his words fell, Zhu Yuchen raised his hand, and then quickly, the artist, the scene note, Zhang Yi...... Most of the people on the set raised their hands, which made Duane smile bitterly in his heart: it seemed that he had overestimated his prestige in the hearts of these people.

These people who raised their hands were full of excitement and looked funny: indeed, they had never seen a crew engage in such a big discussion scene on a small box lunch, and they were naturally happy to participate in it, and at the same time, they really hated the box lunch.

"Actually, I think our crew's lunch box is still good......"

Before Du An's words fell, Zhu Yuchen squeezed his eyebrows, and didn't say a word in his heart: "In the same state as an African refugee when you eat, it is estimated that even if it is pig food, your old man will find it delicious." ”

“…… But since everyone is not satisfied, let's find a new one. ”

This decision is by far the most popular, as soon as the words fell, the scene resounded with warm applause, Zhu Yuchen also asked the crew's famous foodie, makeup assistant Xiaoyu to go with Du ane to find a new lunch supplier, this mention was also unanimously supported by everyone - obviously Zhu Yuchen is not the only one who does not believe in Du An's sense of taste.

“…… The fifth topic is transportation. ”

As soon as this issue came out, everyone was in a bang.

Except for Zhu Yuchen, who just graduated from school and joined the group for the first time, these people have also participated in more than one crew meeting, in these meetings, they have always focused on discussing art, and the style of the meeting is solemn and solemn.

What does this look like a director?

"The previous bus subsidy has been abolished. ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone was in an uproar, and you and I quarreled one by one.

Think about it, too, the welfare has been canceled, who is not in a hurry to replace it? Although this subsidy is not much, how can it be said that it is also a welfare.

Du An's two shouts of "quiet" did not work at all, at this time he took out the speaker and shouted "Quiet!", and the scene immediately fell silent.

Thanks to buying this thing, Du Anxin secretly congratulated himself on his foresight.

"Listen to me, although the subsidy has been cancelled, you will not be asked to bear this part of the transportation expenses. From today onwards, the crew will rent a bus, and everyone will register their addresses later, and in the future, the bus will pick up and drop off the crew at the door every day, and you will have to catch the bus in the province. If you have any comments on this measure, you can speak now, raise your hand and speak, one by one, we are in a meeting, not a meeting. ”

Hearing Duane's words, the crew members who had different thoughts stopped talking.

This is obviously a welfare improvement, who has an opinion? If nothing else, just not having to catch the bus can make them sleep a little more every day.

After confirming that there was no opinion again, the proposal was decided.

Shu Yu's previous measures were in the direction of throttling, and he couldn't be mistaken, but in Duan's opinion, he was too petty: he had never heard of anyone who could do it so pettily. After all, the enterprise is composed of people, only by doing a good job in the aspect of people, and truly people-oriented, can employees have a sense of belonging and do a good job in the enterprise.

"Then the sixth topic ......"

The meeting ended smoothly, and after it ended, the crew came out one after another, chatting while walking, and Zhang Yi also discussed the content of the meeting with Zhang Jiayi next to him.

“…… I haven't talked about us for a long time, how can I make a good movie?"

In Zhang Yi's view, the actor is the most important thing in a movie, and Du An's only talking about trivial things can't even grasp the key points, and the level is worrying - of course, he doesn't know now that the director's level is worrying, but Du An's table at the meeting just now gave him a little hope, but now, that hope seems to be disillusioned again.

Zhang Jiayi shook his head, "I have never seen such a director." ”

Duane was so different from the directors he had seen that he didn't know how to comment on it.

"But you see, they are very affectionate. ”

Zhang Yi looked around: yes, the colleagues around him were all smiling, even the props and sets that were named and criticized at the meeting.

"But a movie is a movie in the end, and it can't be done well if it's not a high feeling,"

Zhang Yi organized a long time to talk, and he didn't know what to say, so he had to give an example, "Brother Zhang, you also know, Zhou Xingchi is a tyrant, and everyone in the industry says that his crew is hell, but you see, aren't all the movies he made still big hits? This is different, it's not the same......"

Yes, Zhang Jiayi also knows this.

"You say, can we make this movie well?"

Zhang Jiayi stopped talking.

He didn't know either.

The two fell into relative silence.
