Chapter 212: Qin Ruoxue's Choice
Qin Ruoxue is the most inconspicuous of the three girls.
Short-haired, quiet, ordinary, the current Qin Ruoxue is completely different from the girl who loves rock and roll and has long hair when Fan Cheng first met.
If he hadn't seen her at that time, Fan Cheng would never have believed that she was the same person as she is now.
According to the introduction of the acting teachers, Qin Ruoxue is the one who learns acting the most hard and seriously among the three, and her acting talent is also the best among the three.
It seems that the small combination of the three can only be a limited-time thing, whether it is electronic music or rock, the road of music is not suitable for Qin Ruoxue to go down.
Opportunity and talent are so subtle, Qin Ruoxue had the ambition to be a rock singer in junior high school, but unfortunately her talent could not support her to do this business, like the performance of the three in Europe, Fan Xiaoqian sang the two songs of rock and roll very well, if it was Wen Zhen who sang in the middle, she might also perform well, but if it was Qin Ruoxue, it might be difficult for her to support a satisfactory performance.
Fortunately, God opened a window for her, and letting Fan Xiaoqian play "The Tragedy" will definitely be a failure.
As the third installment of the trilogy, this "Tragedy" is much easier in terms of funding.
After three years of rapid development, increasing capital investment, and the entertainment channel that has not yet been financed, it is destined to be in a state of negative equity for a long time.
Although the trilogy is a work that Fan Cheng personally participated in, he can't escape the financial dilemma, and all the funds for the first part of "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time and Space" were raised two months after the filming began, and the funding for the latter two works was only in the plan at that time, to put it bluntly, it was zero.
The same is true for the funding of "Sailor Suit and Machine Gun", the start-up capital is Fan Cheng's own, and it was not until the first work was very popular and Fan Xiaoqian's sailor suit also received a very high evaluation that the funds for the second part were quickly raised.
At this time, the release of the first work was also completed, with an investment of five million, a return of tens of millions, and more importantly, this work has formed a great social discussion, and the plot is also very innovative and has great adaptation value, even if it has been released, it is still an excellent asset, and investors finally have better expectations for Fan Cheng's planned trilogy after seeing such a work.
Relying on these good expectations, for the first time, the last part of the trilogy, "The Tragedy", funds were raised before filming.
The director invited by Fan Cheng for this "Tragedy" is Chen Rang, a well-known literary film director in China in the past two years, this Chen Rang's influence among Chinese audiences is far behind Wang Mucheng and Mi Zhigao, but in the circle, Chen Rang's influence is higher than the top two, because he makes literary films.
No matter what ordinary people think, for professionals, literary films are definitely more valuable, even if a commercial film director makes a box office of hundreds of millions, he may not be as good as a capable literary film director in his peers.
But literary film directors don't want to have the influence of commercial film directors, the biggest dilemma of every literary film director is money, and successful commercial film directors will not worry about investment at all.
Therefore, commercial film directors are looking forward to having the artistic ability of literary film directors, and there have always been many directors of literary films who have switched careers to make commercial films, Chen Rang is like this, the results of literary films in the past two years have been relatively ordinary, and the original sponsor who supported him has also withdrawn his funds, so he had to come out and try to make commercial films, but as a not particularly successful literary film director, it is not so easy to turn to commercial films, he has this idea, and someone must be willing to find him.
With his level, blockbusters won't look for him, and he won't shoot with low investment, before Fan Cheng found him, he had been looking for a suitable script and investment in the circle for more than half a year.
Fan Cheng's appearance saved him, although it was definitely not a blockbuster, but it was just right, the investment was not much, the script was very deep, and he believed that this was exactly what he wanted to see.
As a literary film director, Chen Rang's many habits of movies are completely different from those of commercial film directors, and Fan Cheng cannot let Chen Rang make the film a thorough literary film, so even before the official start of filming, this film has become the most troublesome work in the trilogy.
In the first two works that Fan Cheng participated in, he was in a learning perspective, and the two directors were also thorough commercial film directors, although they also had certain artistic pursuits, but on the whole, the shooting ideas were very similar to Fan Cheng.
Chen Rang is different, even if he has made the decision to turn to a commercial film in his heart, many things he is used to shooting are still difficult to change quickly, although he wants to shoot this film to be literary and artistic, Fan Cheng does not want this film to be too literary and low, so the two began to have disagreements from the final script finalization stage, and when it came to the later sub-shots, prop modeling and other preparations, the views were even more different, the two quarreled from the meeting to the production team and then to the set, and the people around them were silent when they quarreled at the beginning. But after arguing and arguing, everyone found that these two people quarreled, but they did not lose their minds, and their quarrels always revolved around the work, and after the quarrel, the two should eat, drink, and drink, and the quarrel should not affect their relationship at all.
Now everyone finally rest assured, when the two quarreled again, not only was they not in a hurry, but they looked at them in a lively mood.
Just before the official filming began, Fan Cheng also quarreled with Chen Rang, and the reason for the quarrel was because he had different ideas about how to use Qin Ruoxue.
In fact, Chen Rang has no special requirements for Qin Ruoxue's acting skills, although he is a director of literary films, but the directors of literary films often only require literature and art, as for acting skills, except for the kind of roles that really need acting skills, or works whose artistic goals depend on acting skills, otherwise literary film directors don't mind using completely inexperienced newcomers.
The main difference between the two is that when arranging the time, Fan Cheng still set aside Qin Ruoxue's school time as in the previous three works, he was not prepared to delay the girl's course, but Chen Rang felt that it was unnecessary, since she had decided to take the road of the entertainment industry, there was no need to stick to her studies, just finish high school, and there was no need to take the high math test for filming.
Fan Cheng insisted that Qin Ruoxue go to school hard and use her spare time to film, the two quarreled while talking, no one could convince anyone, and finally Fan Cheng simply brought Qin Ruoxue to ask her what she thought.
But what Fan Cheng thought of was that Qin Ruoxue thought about it for a while and nodded in agreement with Chen Rang's suggestion!
She also felt that she didn't need to be so persistent in her studies!
Fan Cheng was very surprised, among the three girls, Qin Ruoxue and Fan Xiaoqian have always been excellent in character and learning, although Wen Zhen is also studying hard but her studies are not particularly good, in Fan Cheng's opinion, since Wen Zhen is studying so hard, Qin Ruoxue must also love learning, otherwise she would not study so well.
Who would have thought that she would change her mind.
"Third uncle, I have actually thought about it seriously, Xiaoqian has a talent for singing, Xiaozhen has a first-mover advantage, and I have nothing, and I don't have any talent for singing, fortunately, I still have some talent in acting, although I haven't reached the realm of Xiaoqian's singing, but it doesn't matter, as long as there is still some development, then I can redouble my efforts.
During this period of acting learning, I learned a lot and also knew the gap between myself and my predecessors, which is very big, and I can't catch up with them without a lot of time, so ...... In order to shoot this drama well, let me take a break from school, half a year or a year, and after the filming is over, I will go back to study hard! ”
Fan Cheng knows in his heart that it is unrealistic to take a break from school, what to go back to study hard after filming, the entertainment industry is a vanity fair that consumes people, this is a glamorous and leisurely circle, few people who enter this circle can get out of it, if Qin Ruoxue takes a leave of absence, what awaits her will be a sudden increase in exposure and continuous work, and then go back to study with peace of mind? It's almost impossible to study after filming, no matter what the situation is at the time or what the girl thinks.
Although it looks good, Fan Cheng knows that not all of this world is beautiful, but he can't refuse the girl's own choice, so he just asked, "Have you thought about it?" What did your parents think? This circle is not as good as you think, you are only seventeen years old, and I don't really want you to be fully exposed to this Vanity Fair too soon......"
"My parents said to listen to me, and my idea was that the third uncle couldn't protect us all the time, so just throw me off the cliff, I will learn to fly by myself."
Fan Cheng had no choice but to say, "Okay, I'll let someone from the company contact your parents." ”
That's all he can say, and he can't say that there are many birds that have been thrown off the cliff and died, right?
This is a glamorous circle, yes, a glamorous appearance is not the whole of this circle.
She will encounter a lot of flattery and flattery, she will live in boasting and light, and enjoying this life is only the beginning, and if she is obsessed with this life, she will soon find that what makes up these glamour is the darkest thing in the world.
Desire.
The desire for her body, the desire to use her to make money, and even the desire to achieve other dark purposes through her.
Among the three girls, Fan Xiaoqian is the simplest, Fan Cheng pours the greatest care about her, Wen Zhen is the earliest to enter the circle, and she is also the most aware of the darkness of the entertainment industry, and Wen Zhen also has a pretty good family as a backing, few can hit her with ideas, only Qin Ruoxue, although she looks smart, in fact, Fan Cheng seems that her simplicity is not much better than Fan Xiaoqian, but she does not have Wen Zhen's family and Fan Cheng, a third uncle who is willing to give everything to protect her, such a she, And one foot in this maelstrom, huh...... Thinking about it this way, how do you feel that Qin Ruoxue is not entering the entertainment industry but a sheep into the wolf pack.
Soon, Fan Cheng met Qin Ruoxue's parents.
Both of them are ordinary middle-aged people who are honest, Qin Ruoxue's father is wearing an old suit, it seems that this should be the most formal clothing in his family, and Qin Ruoxue's mother's clothes, red and green, look festive enough, that is, they are still living in the nineties, and they are very nervous when they see Fan Cheng, in fact, it is not the first time they have seen Fan Cheng, but they are still not freed from the perspective of ordinary people in the face of big stars and bosses.
"Qin Ruoxue's idea of suspending school, what do you think?" Fan Cheng asked the two.
"We actually don't agree, but since this is her own idea, we think it should be respected after discussing it, and we are not very worried, because we all believe that you will definitely be able to protect this child's ......."
"This ......" Fan Cheng didn't know what to say, he didn't want to protect Qin Ruoxue like Fan Xiaoqian, the two were not so close.
The parents in front of them don't seem to think so.
"If it were any company, we would not agree to her taking a leave of absence to enter the entertainment industry completely, but since it is the third uncle's company, we are much more relieved, if Ruoxue can't become a big star here in the third uncle, at least she won't suffer......"
This...... Did you misunderstand something?
Fan Cheng felt strange.
What these two think......
"Ruoxue, you will follow the third uncle in the future, the third uncle will never treat you badly, let you film, you will film well, and let you sing seriously." Qin Ruoxue's mother took the girl's hand and said.
Although many things between the two of them were not clear, Fan Cheng vaguely felt that things were not simple, especially looking at Qin Ruoxue's shy appearance......
But he couldn't explain anything to his face for a while, so he had to fool the meeting.
In fact, Qin Ruoxue's side is very simple, the fact that a girl likes Fan Cheng can't be hidden from her parents, after all, she is such an excellent man who often appears by her side, not to mention that Qin Ruoxue's best friend is still Fan Cheng's little niece, so when Qin Ruoxue said that she wanted to be a full-time artist with the third uncle, the girl's parents felt that this girl had already entered Fan Cheng's sight.
To have such a son-in-law as Fan Cheng is definitely a dream for ordinary people, young and handsome, talented and rich, although I heard that he may already have a legitimate girlfriend, and his daughter may not be his number one, but that's nothing, with Qin Ruoxue's family, it is unlikely that she will become Fan Cheng's wife.
So, this meeting with Fan Cheng to discuss full-time artists became a meeting between parents and son-in-law without Fan Cheng knowing, and even after the meeting was over, Fan Cheng was still confused.
