Chapter 135: Casting (Third Update, 40 Monthly Pass Plus Update!) )
Shi 15 went back to Star City the next day after attending an event in Shanghai last time to meet with Principal Wang, but Pineapple and Chubby stayed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Chubby is going to participate in the preparation of the music studio, and Pineapple has stayed to help because Shi 15 has no work arrangements recently.
Xiaopang has lost a lot of weight during this time, and he has also gained a lot of weight.
Although the assistant has not been for a long time, the experience of following Pineapple is really not small, and Pineapple knows everything very carefully, so he can already be regarded as qualified.
Chubby, don't look fat, but his hands and feet are very diligent, his thinking is fast, and Chubby has a very good trait, that is, his enthusiasm is very high. It's not a three-point heat, but it may be a trait that comes from the rest of your life.
Some people are born to feel friendly, some people are born to feel warm, Chubby belongs to the latter type, of course, it also looks quite kind.
Fei Ning, who hadn't seen Chubby for some time, kept snorting in his mouth: "Chubby, what kind of crime have you suffered during this time?" The last time I came to Shanghai, you weren't so thin, did this guy abuse you? Why don't you go back with my brother, we won't suffer from this. ”
Fei Ning was amazed when he saw that Xiaopang had lost weight, and also saw the changes in other aspects of Xiaopang. It's good to be young, and you can look new when you put it in one place and sharpen it. Well, this circle is also grinding enough.
Xiaopang shook his head again and again with great "seriousness": "I'm fine here, don't go back." Brother Monkey was very good to me, and he promised to give me an annual salary of one million! ”
The first half of the sentence Hou Muyun is very useful, and the second half of the sentence Hou Muyun has an urge to rush out of the door: "Who the hell agreed!" ”
Pineapple leaned over: "Huh? Didn't you say yes? I just heard that you promised an annual salary of one million, so I also stayed, and I resigned on the fifteenth side! ”
Ah Hui and the others laughed when they saw Hou Muyun's expression.
After some jokes, Hou Muyun asked them about the progress of the studio's preparations.
In terms of equipment, it is not a problem to have Ah Hui, you can get very good goods at a relatively low price, and at present, almost all the orders are ordered, and you will only ship the goods when Hou Muyun pays the other party.
Of course, there is one more problem that has to be solved before the other party can deliver the goods, and that is the venue.
The venue must be placed in Shanghai, although Hou Muyun originally thought that it would be more convenient to put it in Ruicheng, but it is not convenient at all when you think about it. This studio is not used by oneself, and everyone else can't live in Ruicheng. However, he asked Ah Hui to order some simple equipment and prepare it to be placed in Ruicheng.
Ah Hui has already helped Hou Muyun find a few places, and finally Hou Muyun looked at a venue in the same building as the 15th Studio of the Division, the traffic here is very convenient, and all aspects are quite good, the most important thing is that it is close to the 15th Studio of the Division.
Hou Muyun's studio is newly built, and it must be indispensable to come to Shi 15 to borrow people and resources, which is far from convenient.
It's just that the place is a little smaller, only more than 300 square meters.
"The place is not small, you have just built a new one, and you can't use such a big land for the time being. Besides, if you really want to expand, you can rent it upstairs or downstairs. ”
"Alright, that's it."
Hou Muyun didn't go anywhere else to see, so he rented it.
The rent was talked about by Ah Hui for 70,000 a month, a contract for 12 months, and a one-time settlement.
Whether the price is expensive or not, Hou Muyun naturally doesn't know, but he believes in Ah Hui, and this place is really good, and it is convenient, the equipment is almost put into use when it is moved in and sorted out casually, and the changes are very small.
The venue is ready.
For the members of the studio, Shi Fifteen and Pineapple are helping to find them, and they also asked for two combinations and others. However, this matter is much more difficult than finding a venue to buy equipment, and everyone asked Hou Muyun not to be too anxious.
As for some other staff, Ah Hui can handle it.
Next, it is time to go through the approval of documents and some formalities.
Well, and the name of the music studio.
Music Monkey!
After some discussion, the name was finally decided, and the image of the studio is the monkey listening to music on the cover of Hou Muyun's previous single album, which Hou Muyun drew by himself, which is very memorable and vivid.
After deciding on the venue and name, Hou Muyun asked Ah Hui to contact the equipment side, send money, and let them deliver the goods.
After doing the math, the members of the studio have not yet decided, and more than three million have already been invested before and after. And the bulk of it is undoubtedly the money for equipment and equipment, and there is no way, who makes Hou Muyun's heart bigger, and let Ah Hui buy it well, it is relatively low, and it is still not cheap. Moreover, it is only a part of it at present, and it will definitely be added later.
When transferring money to Ah Hui to deliver it, Hou Muyun naturally transferred a little more, and it was impossible to really let others work in vain.
However, Ah Hui didn't ask for it, and said very bluntly: "The order you placed this time is not small, and the next time I buy something from them, the discount will definitely be very low for me, or even some of it is free." This is equivalent to a kickback, and if you want to give me another hard fee, it is not appropriate. Rest assured, I don't work in vain. ”
"That's it."
Hou Muyun didn't insist: "Let's go, I'll invite everyone to dinner." ”
Fei Ning grinned: "This is the order, after eating, you can almost walk in a nightclub!" ”
"Okay!"
Hou Muyun responded with a mouthful, but he didn't really go after eating, first, he really couldn't see the wine, and second, it was not suitable to really go. Of course, Fei Ning and they went, and even Xiaopang was pushed away by Hou Muyun, and he paid for it.
The next day, Hou Muyun went to Qingtian Film and Television, and Fei Ning took the initiative to apply to be a driver this time: "How big are you now!" How can you drive yourself! ”
When he arrived, Fei Ning hurriedly got out of the car and opened the door for Hou Muyun with a dog's leg and protected his head decently, and then followed behind Hou Muyun step by step, quite presentable, but the eyeballs were rolling around, and his mouth was muttering: "Didn't Nima say that casting started, why don't you have a beautiful girl?" ”
Hou Muyun wanted to kick him to death: "That's why you and the hell came with you!" ”
Fei Ning smiled: "Monkey, isn't your first purpose as an investor also related to those actresses?" You have a special trip today. Investors, is that ....... called the red sofa or the audition sofa in Hollywood? ”
Hou Muyun was speechless: "Young man, your idea is very dangerous!" ”
The two laughed a few words, and when they really got inside, Fei Ning became normal.
Since the establishment of the crew, Li Xue's mood has been quite good every day, first, he has got a good script, second, he is not afraid of no investment, and third, there are a lot fewer awkward things than in other crews.
For example, in the casting of actors, the investor did not deliberately ask for candidates and stuffed people into a mess, which made Li Xue and several assistant directors, especially actor assistant directors, very useful.
As long as the scale of investment is okay, the investors basically require a certain actor to play the first male and female or even the second male and female two, and there are only a few people who come and go.
Just a few people who really don't have any acting skills are trying their best to dominate the screen, not to mention that the audience is uncomfortable, and even some directors don't feel good about it.
But what can be done, the investor has asked for it, and, to be honest, that group of people is really appealing. Some directors are because of the requirements of investors, and some directors are considering ratings. No way, just bear with it.
And this time, the investor is completely open to choice.
The popular ones must also be wanted, but there is really no acting skills in it.
Then, as long as the acting skills are good and compliant, regardless of popularity, they are included in the scope of consideration.
This made Li Xue and the others' thoughts open up all of a sudden.
Soon several main actors were circled and negotiations began.
In addition, what made Li Xue and the others most excited was that Chu Qing put a sentence, some major and important and cameo character casting, so that they let go of their courage to pick, no matter how famous they are, how difficult it is to invite, they will leave it to her to discuss!
Soon, Li Xue and others made a lot of lists of some supporting roles and cameos, but what made them want to cry and laugh was Chu Qing's words: "You guys are not bold enough!" ”
and then relisted the actor selection list, to be honest, after it was listed, they all felt a bit excessive, but when it came to Chu Qing, Chu Qing said: "It's almost the same!" ”
After Hou Muyun arrived, he formally met with Chu Qing and the director team in the conference room, and then discussed some details that required the screenwriter's involvement, including the possible revision of some parts of the script.
Subsequently, Chu Qing showed Hou Muyun the initial draft actor list, after all, he is the original author, screenwriter and investor, and he needs to understand in advance.
Hou Muyun glanced at it, and his voice trembled a little: "How much does this cost!" ”
