Chapter 2 Plans
On September 16, 2009, more than 100 stars from China participated in the release of "The Great Cause of Construction", and there were no Hollywood blockbusters in the same period. In terms of TV dramas, there are no hot new dramas in September, the most topical is "Hello Apartment", which was launched in August, and the highest rating is also "Get Up to Watch Meteor Shower", which was launched in August.
Li Xiuping remembers these movies and television very well, his dream is to be a big director, so he will analyze and study popular TV movies and popular stars, in Li Xiuping's view, these TV movies released in August and September can be popular, it is really no tiger and monkey in the mountains to dominate, if he has enough money, he will definitely shoot a classic. However, Li Xiuping has no money, and he can't find local tyrant investment, at this time he has graduated from college for three months, and his Beipiao career has also been completed for three months, these three months, he rented a basement near BJ West Station, either writing scripts or sending scripts, he ran almost all BJ's film and television production companies, but without exception, the door was not allowed to enter, and no one wanted to buy his script.
If there is no crossing, Li Xiuping will be disheartened, and then he will be deceived back to his hometown, succumb to the arrangement of his family, follow Li Fusheng to learn to do business, and start an extremely tragic life.
Now that he has crossed over, Li Xiuping does not want to live the life in his memory, so he naturally wants to do what he likes. After three sessions with his relatives, he stayed at home for three days, and then returned to BJ from his hometown.
In view of the useless work in the previous three months, Li Xiuping carefully formulated a plan, according to the plan, he will first find a TV shooting crew to do on-site work, during which he will roughly learn how to shoot, understand the various steps of shooting, and the personnel and events to be coordinated, and study until the end of the year. Then he went home for the New Year, and after the New Year, he will start filming his first work.
Li Xiuping has read a lot of directing books and a lot of guidance materials on the set, but after all, he has not experienced it himself, so he has to go to a real shooting set to study for a while. From September to the end of the Lunar New Year, it was only four months, in fact, it was already very rushed, even a genius could not completely learn to shoot in such a short time, but Li Xiuping still decided to do four months of field work, because he was already a little impatient, and he was extremely looking forward to his first work.
The first work Li Xiuping decided to shoot was the 13-year-old popular online drama "Wan Maru Didn't Expect", the reason is very simple, the first drama is popular enough, the second is that the filming cost of this drama is low, the third web drama has low requirements, just to improve the experience value, and the fourth Li Xiuping himself wrote all the scripts are movie scripts, he is self-aware, knows that he has no strength, and he can't shoot a movie perfectly at present, so he chose "Wan Maru Didn't Expect".
Although the filming cost of "Wan Maru Unexpected" is low, the total production cost of 15 episodes is estimated to be no less than one million, and Li Xiuping's deposit balance at this time is only 5,000, which is undoubtedly a lot worse. But it doesn't matter, the traverser still has benefits, Li Xiuping in addition to movies before the crossing, his biggest hobby is to play football, his favorite star when he was studying is Kaka, 09 Kaka transferred to Real Madrid, Li Xiuping's favorite team has also changed from Milan to Real Madrid, Li Xiuping has watched a lot of Real Madrid games, 09-10 season, Real Madrid's European home and away games with Milan, Li Xiuping still remembers the score.
On October 21, Real Madrid 2:3 Milan at home, and on November 3, Real Madrid 1:1 Milan away, this is Li Xiuping's way of making money, he wants to buy football.
In the three days in his hometown, Li Xiuping submitted the youth entrepreneurship loan information to the local People's Bank, if it goes well, Li Xiuping will be able to get a business loan of 50,000 yuan in mid-October, and then he will put all 50,000 yuan into buying a score of 2:3, and the odds are estimated to be 20 times, so that Li Xiuping can get a return of 1 million, and then he will buy a score of 1:1, or invest 50,000, the odds are estimated to be five or six times, he can get a return of 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, two games, Li Xiuping got the 20,000 yuan that Li Yansheng wanted, and the production of " The production budget of "Manmaru Didn't Expect". (Gambling @ ball hurts people, the novel is pure fiction, don't take it seriously.) )
If everything goes well, "Wan Maru Didn't Expect" will also become popular, Li Xiuping will have to find investment, he will shoot a real feature-length TV series, instead of "Wan Maru Didn't Expect" This is a short drama of a few minutes per episode, of course, because he has not written a TV script, his first feature-length TV series will be plagiarism.
Li Xiuping has no guilt about plagiarism, just like buying balls, although it violates morality or law, what should I do if I don't have money? What if I don't have a TV script? If I don't make money by plagiarism and write my own script, when can I make a movie?
"When I make a movie, I will make my own script, and Hollywood bought my script before I traveled, but now BJ and these bird companies don't look at it, they will definitely regret it. ”
In this way, with a very confident mentality, Li Xiuping decided to immediately implement the first step of the plan, he searched for some information on the Internet, looked for the crew filming in BJ, and then found the filming crew of "Marriage Sound Defense" and applied for a handyman on the set.
The person in charge of recruitment on the set of "Marriage Defense" is an assistant director, tall and thin, with a long face, a little dark complexion, looking very unenergetic, gray short-sleeved blue pants and black slippers, if you take a fan, you will be a little old man visiting the park, he squinted and looked at Li Xiuping for a while, and then said: "It's very hard to do this, can you stand it?"
"I can stand it. ”
"There are also a lot of rules in the crew, some of them are violated, you get out of the way immediately, and some of them are violated, and they will be held legally responsible, do you understand?"
"I understand. ”
"The director of our drama is a big man in the circle, you heard clearly, if you have any other thoughts, hurry up, otherwise you will never want to mix in the TV and movie circle in Huaxia in the future, do you have it?"
"No, I'm here to learn. Li Xiuping is very calm and calm.
"What is the rookie rookie pretending to be calm?" The assistant director was amused in his heart, and said: "There is no best, you do it well, there must be benefits, since this is the case, then we will sign the contract, and then I will arrange a job for you." ”
Ten minutes later, the assistant director put away the contract and said with a smile: "Our crew, filming has already started, temporary performances, handymen, and field work are almost recruited, you are now just my assistant." ”
Assistant to the assistant director, it seems to be not bad.
Li Xiuping nodded, "Okay." ”
The assistant director's horse face smiled like a chrysanthemum, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "You go to the set now, find the assistants of the leading actors, ask them about the afternoon tea, make a record, and then you go to buy it." ”
"Okay. ”
Five minutes later, Li Xiuping found the celebrity assistants who were sitting together chatting, he found that these assistants were really ugly, and he didn't know if it was deliberately arranged by the brokerage company to set off the stars, anyway, the appearance is not as good as ordinary passers-by, not only the face is as big as a basin, but also a little fat, not to mention the skin, either dark yellow, or potholes, "No wonder the photos of the star assistants together, the stars look so dazzling, it's all a matter of reference." ”
The assistants didn't know what Li Xiuping was thinking, they were very happy when they knew Li Xiuping's intention, of course, they asked a little too much. "Coffee, we Lily only drink imported coffee from Cuba, it must be hot, and two pieces of rock sugar must be added. ”
"And shredded bread, hehe, this is what I'm going to eat. ”
"Buy two frozen seedless watermelons, two pounds of Philippine bananas, two pounds of apples, well, plus a pound of strawberries. ”
"Buy a new cotton towel, a very long one, and buy two bottles of medical alcohol, a new pair of slippers, and a hair dryer, if you want a new one, our family Lili can't share it with other people. ”
……
Ten minutes later, Li Xiuping looked at the paper full of words without any gaps, he couldn't believe that there were so many requirements for an afternoon tea, this is the play of director Zhao Baogang, these stars are so bullish, if it is a small director and a small production, they will not go to the sky.
"The assistant director's assistant is more like an actor's assistant errand, if my job is to serve these uncles, then where do I have time to learn to shoot. ”
Li Xiuping smiled, put aside the recorded paper, and walked out of the set directly, "It seems that you can't find the set that is being filmed, you should find the crew that is preparing and about to start filming, so the crew will find a handyman on the set, so where should I find it?"
"Hey, hey, boy, where are you going?" the horse-faced deputy director trotted out and asked, pointing at Li Xiuping.
"I'm sorry, director, I have some things to deal with, I can't do this job, you can ask for another master. ”
"Boy, you're playing me, do you know whose crew this is, Lao Tzu makes you can't mix BJ in the future, do you know?"
"The fox is fake and the tiger is mighty," Li Xiuping smiled, "Dude, if you don't brag, you won't die." ”
"Okay, you wait, you're finished, do you know? After today, the Beijing circle will block you, don't want to mix in BJ in the future, and never want to come out. ”
Li Xiuping shook his head speechlessly, and said in his heart, "The Beijing circle can be represented by your little old man, do you want to laugh me to death so that you can inherit my ant Huabei?"
Li Xiuping returned to the rental room, he searched the Internet again, and found that BJ did not have a suitable crew for him at this time, so he searched the situation of HD Film and Television City, and soon found the recruitment information of the crew of "Unruly New Brew".
"I remember that Da Mi Mi is the heroine of this drama, it's good to go and see it, there are TV series shooting every day in HD Film and Television City, I can't learn more when I go there, well, check out now, and go to HD at night. ”
