Chapter 7: A Good Time to Start
Ask for clicks, ask for recommendations, ask for collections, this book has 200,000 words of manuscript, and it is still in the high-speed code word, and it will never be a eunuch, you can read it with confidence.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
It's been the tenth day, and there is still no news about the two scripts that can be sent, just like a stone sinking into the sea, which makes Wei Xiong disappointed at the same time, and gradually a little dead, since Jiahe and Xinyicheng have eyes and don't know gold and jade, he still doesn't believe that there is no other way to go.
In fact, Wei Xiong is a little taken for granted, you must know that now is the golden age of Hong Kong films, like him, who has no qualifications, and throws scripts to major film companies, I don't know how many people hope to be appreciated by this, especially large companies like Golden Harvest and New Arts City, there are dozens of scripts received every day, and hundreds of copies are not exaggerated, in order to save human resources, except for the scripts of some insiders or well-known people, most of the others are pressed at the bottom of the box, and I don't know when they will have the opportunity to see the light of day again.
Obviously, his script unfortunately became a member of the bottom of the box, and it may not even be opened in the envelope, which can really be said that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
However, in the past two days, Wei Xiong has not had much time to think about the script, because the advertisement for the Titashi watch has entered the substantive preparation stage, and as the chief person in charge of advertising production, he needs to be busy with a lot of things, the most important of which are the two leading actors and shooting locations.
According to the meaning of Baoguang Group, it is hoped that popular film and television actors will play the starring role, and in the face of such a big customer, it is impossible for Interstellar Advertising Company not to try its best to meet it, so Wei Xiong directly chose Zhou Yunfa in the original advertisement to play the male lead, and as for the invitation, the company's special person in charge will naturally handle it. And the heroine chose Li Jiaxin, yes, she is the most beautiful Hong Kong sister in the future.
The reason why he chose Li Jiaxin is because Wu Qianlian, who played the heroine in the original version, has not yet debuted. The second is that his selfishness is at work. To put it bluntly, the person in charge of this advertisement would want to do just to create an opportunity to get along with Li Jiaxin, that's all.
And only inviting a big-name star is also in line with the company's concept of saving production costs, and it can basically meet the requirements of Baoguang Group, after all, although Zhou Yunfa has not developed well in movies in recent years, and is even called box office poison, his fame is still there.
The other is the filming location, there are airstrips and old-fashioned propeller fighters in the advertisement, the runway is easy to say, the key is the propeller fighter, which is not available in Hong Kong. In the end, the company contacted many parties and was allowed to shoot at an air force training base in Taiwan.
Solving the two most important problems, the rest is simple, as long as Wei Xiong orders the requirements, someone will naturally carry them out, but his qualifications are too shallow, and some people who are dissatisfied with his orders will inevitably disobey him. He didn't bother to pay attention to this, as long as it wasn't too excessive, and he reported a few who crossed the line directly to Manager Liu, and someone else would deal with it.
"Whew, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, there's a traffic jam on the road. Twenty minutes before the plane took off, Li Jiaxin finally hurried with her suitcase.
Beauty has always been privileged wherever she goes, and most of the people in the film crew just smiled and didn't say anything. There are, of course, exceptions.
"I knew that there would be a traffic jam, so I had to go out early, just to wait for you alone, and the whole film crew almost delayed the flight. The one who spoke was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man named Lee Sung-ik, who was the director and deputy producer of the commercial. In fact, if Wei Xiong didn't insist on being the head in charge, that is, the producer, he should be the director and producer, so he has always been very unhappy with Wei Xiong, a newcomer, riding on his head, and his attitude will naturally not be much better, but fortunately, he is still generally knowledgeable and has not done anything excessive.
Hearing this, Li Jiaxin immediately lowered her head aggrievedly, she had already gone out an hour early, who knew that the traffic jam would be so bad today.
"Okay, just in time, no one has to tell how early you have to arrive. At the critical moment, Wei Xiong stepped forward and smiled at Li Jiaxin at the end.
Everyone around them could smell a faint smell of gunpowder in the air, but it had nothing to do with them. On the contrary, there are some people who have the mentality of watching the show.
Wei Xiong knew very well that he was not very popular among these people, but he didn't care at all, it was still the same sentence, Interstellar was just his temporary shelter, as long as this advertisement could be successfully completed, he was too lazy to care about the rest, so he turned a blind eye to everyone's expressions, including Li Chengyi's somewhat ugly face, and reached out and pulled Li Jiaxin's suitcase: "Let's go, go and get your boarding pass." ”
By the time Li Jiaxin reacted, Wei Xiong had already dragged his suitcase towards the counter not far away, she hurriedly followed, took out her ID card and handed it to the check-in staff, and then said to Wei Xiong: "Producer Wei, thank you for helping me out just now." ”
The two met once in the company the day before yesterday, and she can only be described as ecstatic that she was selected as the heroine of a big investment TV commercial, you must know that she had only shot some print advertisements before this, in fact, let alone her, many models she knows who have been in the industry for several years have never shot TV commercials, let alone this kind of large-scale TV commercials with an investment of millions and high-end brands.
So she was full of gratitude to Wei Xiong who handpicked her, and Wei Xiong helped her out of the siege just now, and this gratitude was even greater.
"He's targeting me, not you. Seeing Li Jiaxin's puzzled face, Wei Xiong explained: "He has always been dissatisfied with me as a producer, and you are the heroine I chose, so you know...... But you don't have to worry, Director Li still takes his work very seriously. ”
Looking at Wei Xiongcai up close, he really realized how delicate Li Jiaxin's facial features are, no wonder she is known as the most beautiful Hong Kong sister, and with this vase, she has been famous for more than 20 years, and finally successfully married into the so-called wealthy family, which is unique in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
Of course, Li Jiaxin, who is only fifteen years old now and has just entered the modeling industry for less than a year, looks very young on the outside, and her mind is also very simple, far from the sophistication and reality of stepping into the entertainment industry in the future, in Wei Xiong's words, it is a good time to start.
