Chapter Seventy-Four: Acquisition of Companies
Ning Hao smiled and said, "Yanxi, then you have to start practicing your acting skills." Ning Hao recalled, in his memory, Chen Yanxi was actually a relatively savvy actor, although he was not exquisite, but at least he was not like a certain letter plastic surgery girl, and he could only rely on later cutouts.
Ning Hao thought for a while and suggested: "Yanxi, sometimes acting has to be natural, sometimes it has to deviate from the facts, in reality, you may be very sad in your heart, but in the camera, you have to add your own sadness to fully express it, so that everyone can feel it...... Happy, sad, sad, this requires a change of demeanor, a sense of layering, not just an expression......"
Although "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" does not seem to have high requirements for acting skills, after all, it is on the big screen, and it is not allowed to make a difference, so although Ning Hao is inclined to Yanxi, if she can't meet the requirements, then she won't want to have any affection, okay is okay, no is no way.
Ning Hao paused and said seriously: "Yanxi, I don't want to give this heroine to other girls, do you understand?"
Listening to Ning Hao's words, Chen Yanxi was a little moved, and a little stressed, and took a deep breath: "Ning Hao, I will work hard to practice acting!"
The two chatted for a while before hanging up the phone. Chen Yanxi probably went to read books on acting.
And Ning Hao sat down, continued to face the computer, began to tap the keyboard, and began to continue the script of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years".
The main content of this story is that
Ke Jingteng's group of friends: Lao Cao, who loves to play handsome but is always frustrated in love, can't stop ***, so it's called ***, the side who wants to win with comedy but always fails, Ah He, the master of love in the fat world, for the girl he likes together - Shen Jiayi, he coincidentally went straight from the middle of Jingcheng Middle School to the high school......
The whole story of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" has blood, freshness, and regrets.
In addition to the writing of words, Ning Hao is also thinking about the design of the storyboard. Moreover, on the basis of the original, some scenes and contexts have been modified to match his creative background. At the same time, some of its own improvements have been added, of course, these parts are part of the film material, filmed, but in the final post-editing, the trade-offs are adjusted.
Ning Hao wrote this script for three days before finalizing the first draft, the general framework and structure of the story have not changed, but the way to express the story and some details are to add some of Ning Hao's own things, in order to make the rhythm of the whole story more natural and more suitable for Ning Hao's experience.
Next, Ning Hao began to write the storyboard script of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", that is, drawing grids on paper, writing clearly how to turn the content of the script into a series of shots, as well as determining how to shoot the pictures, how to move the camera position and scenes.
And although Ning Hao relied on "Crazy Stone" to make a lot of money before, it was still a little tight for making movies, so in order to consider the cost and achieve the best results that could be achieved, as well as some content scale problems, Ning Hao redesigned many shots.
For example, in the original version, Ke Jingteng and Brother Bo started the game, and then began to switch between the teacher's graceful figure and the high-speed frequency of their up and down, left and right, front and back, the shots in this are too explicit and concrete. Even, when the injured friend's rubber band bounced past, the cry of ecstasy was really red-faced, and laughed.
Since the original work was released in Taiwan, there is nothing wrong with these shots, but once I think about it, Ning Hao wants to release this set of shots in mainland theaters, because of the wise decision of Youguang \ Yu Zongju, so you don't have to think about it to know that it will definitely be deleted, but this is a very important part, and the blending with the small and fresh style of the movie has achieved the classic name of "Those Years".
Therefore, Ning Hao redesigned this set of shots, which not only retained this dirty plot, but also did not appear so explicit, but became more obscure and ingenious. Driving the car, Ning Hao was also unambiguous.
This storyboard script, Ning Hao wrote very slowly, he had to consider the overall style to be consistent, and to make the shot have the atmosphere of a youthful campus, so he reorganized most of the content, which is a very painstaking and energetic work, but it is also a very enjoyable process.
Ning Hao is not in a hurry at all, and there is no need to be in a hurry, because this is a movie he made independently, and there is no schedule problem, as long as the movie can be written before filming starts. Moreover, to prepare for a movie, the early stage is not only the script, but also many other things to prepare.
Ning Hao wrote the script for a while, then leaned back in the chair, took out his mobile phone and dialed a call: "Hi, hello Uncle Qin, I'm Ning Hao." ”
It was Uncle Qin, who had always supported Ning Hao before, and it was with the help of Uncle Qin and Uncle Li that Ning Ling was expelled from the company and sent to prison. Therefore, to a certain extent, Qin Bo is now Ning Hao's confidant and his own representative in the company.
Now, Uncle Qin is taking care of the company's various affairs instead of Ning Hao, and Ning Hao is completely a hands-off shopkeeper.
"Hello, Mr. Ning. There was a hint of respect in Qin Bo's tone, after all, Ning Hao's actions at the shareholders' meeting that day made him feel very shocked and admired, and the most important thing was that Ning Hao's talent made him feel a kind of excitement when a good minister met a master.
Hearing Uncle Qin's tone, Ning Hao was not too surprised, so he said directly to his subordinates: "Uncle Qin, I am going to prepare to make a new movie, with an investment of about 5 million, I want to ask, can the current situation of the company be produced and distributed?"
"5 million, oh, although it is not a big investment, if you want to produce independently, then you really need the company to come forward, but now the situation of our company, you also know, since Ning Ling was imprisoned, the resignation of the new company and the resignation of the person left. Although I have been reorganizing these days, I still have little effect, and now with the combat strength of the old, weak, sick and disabled, we are really a little unsure. Filming and making a movie requires a lot of co-ordination work, otherwise it will be a financial mess. ”
Ning Hao nodded, the turmoil in the company before had indeed caused a big loss of vitality, and the remaining employees were also waiting and seeing, looking for better opportunities. It is estimated that only those employees who have experienced the crew of "Crazy Stone" with Ning Hao are the ones who sincerely stay.
The production of "Those Years" this time is not like the previous DV movies, and considering that it is ready to be released by itself, the cost is millions, the number of actors signed will reach dozens, and the crew will be built by hundreds of people, and professional photographers, lighting engineers, makeup artists, and set designers are also needed...... Without a professional team, it is basically impossible.
But now, even if you hurry up and recruit people, you have to re-train them, and Ning Hao doesn't want to use these half-familiar newcomers to practice with his "Those Years", if recruiting people can't work, then there is only another way, which is to buy a company and then use their employees. After all, during that period of seeking distribution, Ning Hao went to too many film and television companies.
Ning Hao thought about it for a while, and then said, "Uncle Qin, I know. So tell me, what would be the formalities if we were to buy a small film company?"
