Chapter 76: Thunderman Screenwriter
At about 11 o'clock in the morning, the opening ceremony of the commercial film was launched, and the chief director and actors burned incense to congratulate the remuneration and sprinkled flowers to make offerings.
In addition to the senior executives of Xingyi Company, the guests present also included representatives of investors, Chai Li, the owner of the advertising company, and some insiders.
Even the nearby villagers rushed over to see the excitement and wished the advertising campaign a complete success. The audience was crowded and bustling, and the atmosphere was very warm.
Reporters from several entertainment media rushed to the ceremony with cameras on their shoulders and were busy taking pictures, posting news, and interviewing the main creators, makeup artists, and the leading actors in the film.
The newcomers of Xingyi Company were very excited, and they did their best to get in front of the reporter's camera when they participated in such a ceremony for the first time. There are three kinds of "no future" in the circle: newcomers who don't want to be big stars have no future, actors who can't steal the camera have no future, and stars who don't have a good relationship with reporters have no future.
The new artists who have just stepped into the entertainment industry are all full of ambition and have great hopes for their future, and no one wants to be a person with no future.
Therefore, in the face of such a large group of entertainment reporters, newcomers are trying to take the opportunity to take the position. They all have wishful thinking, as long as they show their faces in front of the camera, they may be on the front page of online entertainment news tomorrow. Hahaha, the headlines on the front page, with photos, then the people of the whole country know this newcomer!
They rushed to the camera in a hurry, but were pushed away by Dai Mei and the two, "Get out of the way, you all stand in the back, there are no works, you will learn to steal the spotlight, what a plain!"
She walked up to the reporters and raised her hand to introduce: "This is the male protagonist of this commercial, the newcomer Yunkang who is highly praised by Xingyi Company." She turned her head to call Yunkang, but she didn't see his figure.
"Yunkang!" Dai Mei turned her head and screamed in her voice, extremely annoyed in her heart. was obviously here just now, why is it gone in a blink of an eye, is the stinky boy so reluctant to enter the camera with her!
Yun Kang was sitting next to the makeup tent at this time, his eyes vigilantly observing the people coming and going. There were many burly and powerful staff members in the crew, and before the guests and reporters arrived, they all quietly retreated, not knowing where they went.
"Lawyer Duan, you also think that something is wrong, there seem to be a lot of martial artists in the crew. Yunkang asked Duan Fat Intestine inadvertently.
Duan Fatty Gu took two puffs of cigarette, and the fat big fart sat down, and he couldn't even cover the bench.
He was silent for a long time, and then smiled: "As your personal lawyer, I will give you a preventive shot in advance." Snakes in the rivers and lakes have snake paths, crabs have crab nests, and the warriors of each sect family have their own rules, and it is inconvenient for outsiders to inquire, let alone meddle in the housework of other sects. If a martial artist of any sect commits a crime, there is a task force and a sect to solve it, and no one else can care. ”
In the rivers and lakes, you must be cautious, everyone pretends to be deaf and blind, and always remains silent, which is in line with the rules. The basic principle of a warrior is not to inquire, not to interfere, not to participate. People don't offend me, I don't offend people, everyone despises the kind of people who make cheap things everywhere.
"Young people's curiosity is the most important, and it's easy to get into trouble. These words don't sound good, but they work, so you can think about it. Duan Feiyu summed it up, which can be regarded as a warning to Yunkang.
At this time, Chen Economy quietly ran over and whispered to Yunkang: "The filming may be postponed for a day, there is something wrong with the casting, I heard that the actor will be changed." Sister Ruoxuan and I went to negotiate with the investor, you know Mr. Chai of the advertising company, hurry up and talk to him, let him fully support you. ”
Saying that, he glanced at his watch with some anxiety, time was urgent, if he couldn't handle the matter of the role this morning, there would be no hope of negotiating, "Kang, you can wait for me here with peace of mind, and we will discuss it at lunch." After Chen Jingye finished speaking, he left in a hurry.
If the actor is replaced, all the previous things will be in vain, Chen Economy is very unwilling, although he also knows that there is little hope for the struggle, but he still has to work hard to fight for it.
As if his butt was burned by fire, he hurried to find Yan Ruoxuan, but the company issued a notice that after the start-up ceremony, let Yan Ruoxuan lead the newcomers to return to the company quickly, considering everyone's safety, the observation practice was completed early.
The newcomers are also willing to go back to the city immediately, and they can't eat or sleep well when they live in the crew, and there are murders in the middle of the night. There are ghosts in the grove, and the camp is full of fox spirits, who dares to live anywhere?
So after they appeared in front of the entertainment reporter's camera, they were already satisfied, and they didn't want to stay and continue to observe, so it was best to pack up their things and go home quickly.
Only Qi Zhonglu strongly asked to stay, thinking that when Yunkang was filming, there was not even an assistant next to him, so it was good for him to stay as an errand runner, and by the way, he could also observe and learn.
Just as the newcomers were busy collecting tents, moving things, and pulling boxes, Yunkang discovered a new situation here.
In a group of reporters carrying cameras, there was a tall, thin man in black clothes and a black hat, who wore a sanitary mask to cover his face. His camera lens is aimed in a strange direction, and the focus is different from that of others.
Yun Kang secretly observed for a while, then leaned out a divine sense and glanced towards the tall and thin man. That man had a cold face and deep eyes, and he was a martial artist in the late stage of the Yellow Order.
Shen Duo, this kid finally appeared.
Yun Kang's cranial nerves tightened, Shen Duo suddenly pretended to be a photojournalist, what did he want to do? He couldn't figure out what this guy's purpose was, but as long as he didn't have any ill will towards him, he didn't have to be overly nervous.
Yun Kang's face was impassive, but he secretly counted several groups of people in his heart: more than 30 people in the task force, more than 10 warriors from Xingyi Company, an unknown number of warriors led by the Lei Ao brothers, and Shen Duo who ran a single gang.
In this way, at least four groups of people have come to Wufeng Mountain, all of which seem to be for the same goal.
Yun Kang thought about it, Shen Duo took the map, and said that there were treasures in Wufeng Mountain, he didn't care about it at the time, but now it seems that there are really treasures, what kind of good thing is it that attracts so many people to stir up the army?
There are good things that can't be snatched away by others first, Yun Kang thought to himself that so many martial artists to rob them, that treasure may be related to cultivation, if you want to find a way to fish in troubled waters, you have to start first.
His cultivation at the second level of Qi refining encountered a bottleneck, and because he didn't have aura, it was difficult to break through this level. This time I came to Wufeng Mountain to film, if I could encounter any treasures that would help my cultivation, I might be able to break through the second layer in one fell swoop.
Yun Kang moved to seize the treasure, the only trouble was that the task force also participated in the operation, and if they met, it would be another unclear lawsuit.
He glanced at Duan Fatty Intestine next to him, whether he could deal with the guys in the task force or not, it all depended on whether this fat white lawyer was worthy of cooperation.
At this time, reporters flocked to a makeup artist, asked questions one after another, and interviewed him one by one. And Shen Duo also carried the camera and followed, pretending to take pictures, but his eyes were fixed on Yunkang next to the tent.
Yun Kang nodded at him slightly, this kid can really pretend, he looks good with a camera.
Shen Duo also nodded to him, and then turned the camera to focus on the makeup artist.
"Mr. Xu, is there any innovation in the styling of this Xianxia-themed commercial?" a reporter asked the makeup artist surnamed Xu.
"That's right, in our shooting, there is an orangutan monster image, using the most advanced fur simulation technology in China, and the shape can be exactly the same as the real gorilla, with a realism of more than 90%. Teacher Xu said with a smile on his face and very proudly.
"Oh, isn't it a Xianxia love theme this time, how can there be a role of an orangutan?" another reporter asked curiously.
"Hehe, I'm only responsible for the styling, as for the characters and plot, I can't answer them, let our chief creator and screenwriter introduce them to you. Teacher Xu smiled, turned to a casually dressed girl and said, "Xiao Tang, tell the reporter about the character." ”
This girl is Tang Li, the screenwriter of the crew, although she is young, the theme content she creates is novel and bold, so her plot script stands out among many candidates, and Xingyi Company finally decided to let Tang Li be the only screenwriter of this Xianxia commercial.
The screenwriting work has not yet formed an industry scale in China, and many people are running orders to help pull jobs, and if someone likes the script, they can get paid, and if no one uses it, they can only rest at home and be unemployed. In the first half of the year, the fat flowed oil, and in the second half of the year, he drank the northwest wind, which is very common in screenwriters.
Therefore, most screenwriters are willing to enter powerful film and television companies and serve as the company's queen screenwriters, with a stable job and income, and their creation can be guaranteed.
In this way, the screenwriter position of Xingyi Entertainment has become a sought-after bun. At present, the company has set up four screenwriter positions, except for Tang Li, the other three are well-known playwrights in China, and have written more than a dozen excellent film and television works.
Only Tang Li is a newcomer, with insufficient creative strength and experience, and he got the screenwriting position just by virtue of the script of this commercial film, which made many people jealous and almost got pink eye.
Entertainment reporters deal with the entertainment industry all day long, and the competition between editors is cruel and fierce, and how difficult it is to grab a position is more or less heard of by their reporters. So when I came to interview today, I was very curious about this young screenwriter surnamed Tang, what kind of creativity did her script have that could be favored by Xingyi Company?
Reporters from several entertainment media gathered around, and the atmosphere was in full swing, and they all wanted to interview screenwriter Tang Li first.
Yun Kang looked at Tang Li not far away, and saw that she was a petite young girl with short and smart hair, and her appearance looked very cheerful and capable.
He doesn't know much about the screenwriting industry and doesn't know how difficult the screenwriting task is, but it's remarkable that such a young girl can serve as the screenwriter of a 50 million advertising blockbuster.
At this time, a reporter asked with a smile: "Screenwriter Tang, can you tell us about the plot of this commercial film in advance." ”
Generally speaking, the plot cannot be announced to the public before filming, otherwise it will be spoiled in advance, and the audience will watch it again. So the reporter just asked such a sentence, and he didn't expect the screenwriter to tell the plot honestly.
Unexpectedly, Tang Li smiled and said very happily: "No problem, I can tell you the whole plot." ”
The reporters were overjoyed, and hurriedly put the microphone close to Tang Li, and then motioned to the cameraman behind him to turn on the camera, and all the cameras were aimed at the screenwriter.
"The main product of this commercial is medicinal wine, so our plot revolves around medicinal wine. Tang Li said unhurriedly: "The Immortal Priestess was captured by a demon beast orangutan and trapped on the peak of Ling Xiao. The fairy prince went to rescue the goddess, was injured in a fight with the orangutan, fell into a mysterious cave, and found a jar of medicinal wine handed down from ancient times. After drinking the medicinal wine, the fairy prince not only healed the injuries on his body, but also greatly increased his skills, rushed out of the cave to fight the orangutan for 300 rounds, killed the demon beast under the sword, and finally rescued his beloved goddess. Since then, the two have been drinking alcohol every day and living happily ever after. ”
"Huh!"
"Huh?"
"I'll go!"
"Gone?"
"That's it?"
"Is it over?"
After Tang Li finished talking about the plot, everyone in the audience sat on wax. Nima, what kind of bloody plot is this, the demon beast orangutan, the ancient medicine and wine, and the three hundred rounds, and the happiness. The plots written by ninth-rate screenwriters are better than this little Bai Raven!
Everyone can't figure out that the senior management of Xingyi Company is blind, or is committing a myocardial infarction, is it healthier to choose such a thunderous script!
Tang Li said seriously: "The length of the advertising film is limited, so the plot can only be written so much. Oh, by the way, you all guess why the medicinal wine handed down from ancient times is magical, and why can it enhance the power of the immortal prince?"
The reporters are speechless, what a mess, let's guess, can we not be so mentally retarded!
But everyone is embarrassed not to answer, entertainment news interviews must not be cold, doesn't that seem to be very unlevel, lack of entertainment spirit?
So a reporter deliberately replied: "Because this medicinal wine is a high-quality product produced by a certain distillery, it is of high quality, it can keep fit, and it is suitable for all ages, right?"
A group of reporters laughed along, mocking and bantering, and most of them had the attitude of watching the joke. Unexpectedly, Tang Li shook his head very seriously and said: "What you said is not entirely right, this medicinal wine is actually prepared by the immortal recipe handed down by the Eight Immortals Zhang Guolao, so it has such a miraculous effect." ”
The reporters in the audience petrified again, and the expressions on their faces froze. This stalk isn't funny at all, it's going to be embarrassing!
Everyone immediately lost interest in Tang Li, what a genius screenwriter, what kind of fight to get out of the encirclement to get the favor of the company, this look is a student girl who has just come out of school, she doesn't understand anything, her mind is full of fantasies, and she can't even make up stories.
Forget it, don't play with her. The entertainment company lacks heart and eye and finds such a screenwriter, but the eyes of the reporters and adults are bright, and this stupid screenwriter will definitely be deflated in the end.
The reporters turned their heads to their own cameramen, let's delete the recorded content, what kind of rotten street plot, after the advertisement is filmed, it will definitely be messed up, and the 50 million yuan of investors is thrown away in vain.
The videographers also disdainfully, "This is a pure waste of time and takes up memory." "I raised my hand and deleted all the content I had just recorded.
