Zhang Tan has no intention of being a trapeze, and runs around by plane all day long.

But after a few days at Nortel, something came to the door and had to get on the plane again.

"I've been dragging on writing "The Four Famous Hunting Generals" for so long, and half of it hasn't ended yet, and in the past six months, I've been too entangled in mundane affairs."

"And I still want to pick up girls at school, and I feel like I don't have enough time."

Although Zhang Tan feels that he is working again, the time is earned now, and there is no need to be so nervous and urge himself to work hard. But deep down, there is always a kind of self-discipline of "born in sorrow and dying in peace", and there are still many things I want to do, at least my current work in the industry, there are still many undecided.

"There are still several martial arts novels waiting for me to write, take advantage of the fact that martial arts have been warmed up by me in the past few years, hurry up and write, let them regain their glory, don't wait for the decline of martial arts, born at the wrong time, secretly ruined."

Smack.

Zhang Tan typed on his notebook.

This is Zhang Tan, who couldn't sleep in the first-class cabin on the plane at a height of 10,000 miles, simply started to code. A flight of more than two hours was enough for him to write four or five thousand words. His plan is to write "Four Famous Hunting Generals" before the end of the year to complete the system of the series of stories.

In the future, this is a gold mine that can continue to be exploited.

Zhen Kanto, Huijing Division, Reverse Water Cold, and General Dou, this series is written, the world structure is clear, the main characters have been portrayed in place, and an IP of great value is complete. And the most distinctive feature of the series is that it combines case solving and martial arts, and the character design is completed. On the energy source continues to enter one case after another.

Each case is a separate and complete story.

can be infinitely extended to conceive new stories, Zhang Tan has no plans to write again. But someone else wants to add a story, and he doesn't mind. But as long as the names and characters of the four famous catches are used. This copyright fee cannot be less.

At that time, Wen Ruian Niu Fork told reporters that he had four words that brought him more than 20 million yuan in income every year, that is, the four famous catches.

The film and television adaptations of the four famous catches are not successful, the TV series did not make classics, and the movies hit the streets, but this still does not reduce the value of these four words IP, if the adaptation is successful, I am afraid the value will be greater.

Codeword. Zhang Tan is very devoted.

Before you know it, the plane has already begun to land.

Now it is December, and the winter solstice will be in half a month, located in the south of Zhijiang Province, although there is still warm sunshine, but the wind blowing in the face can already be described as cold. The destination of Zhang Tan's trip is Xiangshan Film and Television City in Ningbo, most of the shots of "The Condor Heroes". It will be filmed in Xiangshan Film and Television City.

This Xiangshan Film and Television City is a filming location specially built for "The Condor Heroes", mainly to build a "Condor City", which includes eight scenic spots in the planning, including ancient battlefields, workshop areas, village blocks, Guiyunzhuang, Tomb of the Living Dead, Lujiazhuang, Xiangyang City, and yurts.

At present, only part of the film and television city has been built. The rest will be built while shooting.

Today, in front of the gate of the completed scenic spot, the scene of only construction workers coming and going has been changed from the past. Countless people flocked in. There are the cast and crew of "The Condor Heroes", and there are fans who came spontaneously. There are also hundreds of media outlets, as well as local government officials.

There is only one purpose. It is the opening ceremony of "The Condor Heroes".

Zhang Tan also came to participate in the boot ceremony.

……

"I'm getting a little nervous, Inspector." In the scenic area, in the dressing room where the crew is stationed, Liu Anfeng said worriedly.

Because the crew's schedule is very tight, after the start-up ceremony, the first scene will be officially filmed, so the actors have already put on makeup in advance. Zhang Tan was too lazy to go to the front to be polite, so he came to the dressing room to see Liu Anfeng's little dragon girl outfit.

Such beauties are always pleasing to the eye.

Dressed in white clothes and combing long hair, she has a very chivalrous style.

"There's nothing to be nervous about, you're not a rookie actor, haven't you acted before?" Zhang Tan restrained his admiring gaze while comforting, because Liu Anfeng's mother was talking to the assistant director outside the door and would come in at any time.

The elders are here, and it's always inconvenient.

Liu Anfeng pulled her waist, her waist was very thin, but in order to achieve a better effect in front of the camera, she still tried her best to tighten: "But I have never played the heroine, it is still such a big investment, such an important play, in case it doesn't work well......"

Zhang Tan smiled and said, "It's okay, you just need to be photogenic." Aren't actors divided into two types, powerful and idol, your appearance ...... Appearance is the meaning of looks...... is qualified enough to be an idol actor, there is no need to cross the line and grab the jobs of other powerful actors, right. ”

Everyone loves to listen to good words, Liu Anfeng also smiled happily, and then frowned again: "I haven't thought about it so much, I just want to play a good show, I don't dare to go online recently, many people on the Internet say that I can enter the crew of "Condor" through the back door." ”

"But you didn't, did you, I recommended you, and you didn't give me any money. And your audition was affirmed by Director Zhang and Director Yu. It's good to be relaxed, don't care too much about what others say, and the most important thing is to be yourself. Those things that were smoky on the Internet were handed over to the crew to solve, and they were originally provoked. ”

"But the reporter will definitely ask me this question, and I don't know how to answer it."

"You don't have to answer at all, Director Zhang will block it for you, and if the reporter asks, I will also tell them that I recommended you."

Zhang Tan comforted Liu Anfeng.

Since the crew announced that Liu Anfeng played the role of Xiaolongnu, it has exploded on the Internet, because Liu Anfeng's reputation is too weak, and he has only played one female No. 2. If Liu Anfeng is announced from the beginning, netizens will not react too much, the key is that Zhang Dabeard's hype is too much, and the objects of the previous hype are all first-line female stars, which makes netizens expect too much.

As soon as he signed a contract to confirm the filming, Zhang Dabeard arranged for someone to release a rumor, saying that he invited South Korea's hottest female star Kim Na-hyun to play the role of Xiaolongnu.

After firing Kim Na-hyun for a while, Zhang Dabeard came forward to deny it, saying that it was a big misunderstanding. It was a reporter who saw that he used a picture of Kim Na-hyun on his computer desktop, which was miscommunicated.

Followed by. The crew once again let out a mouthful, this time Xiaolongnu invited Hong Kong star Liu Piaopiao. This year, the blockbuster "Steamed Bun Bloody Case" starring Liu Piaopiao can be said to occupy the limelight, although he was scolded miserably, but it did not damage Liu Piaopiao's fame. Moreover, the crew also revealed that Yang Guo's candidate was Liu Piaopiao's scandal object Xie Haonan.

After firing Nan Piaolian as the protagonist for a while, Zhang Dabeard came forward again and scolded the news for being untrue.

Later, it was rumored that a contract was negotiated with a quasi-first-line female star in China. Within a few days, the other party's brokerage company said decisively. I have not been in contact with the crew of "Condor".

After three big stars in a row, Zhang Dabeard appeared again, saying that he would choose from the Internet, cooperate with the website, select Xiaolongnu nationwide, and select the whole people.

Just as everyone enthusiastically signed up to send photos over, Yu Min, the director of the crew, said in an interview that he had leaked his mouth.

Yu Min said that he is so busy now that he doesn't even have time to surf the Internet. I haven't seen the photos, and said that at this stage, celebrities are still invited.

A show is a goof.

Later, some media poked it out. Zhou Taiping, who played Huang Rong in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", will make persistent efforts to play the role of Xiaolongnu. Zhang Jizhong also happily said that everything was decided. It's just a contract.

Until not long ago, suddenly Zhou Taiping "resigned" from Xiaolongnu. said that she was not suitable to play the little dragon girl. Besides, she has already played Huang Rong, and it is a little embarrassing to play Xiaolongnu again.

So far. Liu Anfeng was officially launched by the crew.

In an instant, a series of clumsy performances by Zhang Dabeard and the boiling public resentment caused by Zhang Dabeard drowned Liu Anfeng out.

From a business point of view, although the means are a little worse, Zhang Tan is also for the ratings, Zhang Tan cannot deny it.

So I can only comfort Liu Anfeng, don't pay attention to these off-the-field things, acting well is more important than anything else.

……

At ten o'clock in the morning, everything was ready, and the crew came to invite Zhang Tan, Liu Anfeng and others to go out together to participate in the start-up ceremony.

I don't know since when, the mainland crew has also learned to turn on the camera and worship God, set up tables to burn incense, fruit platters, roast duck and suckling pig, and worship unwarranted gods.

What kind of god is this?

The god of cinema?

Zhang Tan asked Zhang Dabeard, but Zhang Dabeard didn't know, and said ambiguously: "Worship the gods of the place, the gods of the land, the mountains, or good brothers." ”

It's a ritual.

They all went to burn incense and bent over, and then the fireworks bloomed, the firecrackers rang out, and the camera covered with the red hijab was uncovered, and the opening ceremony was completed.

Then came the reporter's interview time.

Sure enough, the reporter asked Liu Anfeng why he could play the little dragon girl, and whether there was a shady scene.

Zhang Dabeard took the initiative to pick up the problem and said: "Liu Anfeng is most consistent with Xiaolongnu in terms of image and temperament, which has been unanimously recognized by our producer, director team and Tan Zhang, she is more suitable for this role than anyone else!" ”

Zhang Tan also answered this question: "Liu Anfeng was recommended by me to the crew, she is my senior sister at Nortel, and I didn't know her before." But after I saw her at school, I thought she was very similar to the little dragon girl I wrote, so I recommended her to audition. I changed my costume during the audition, but I don't have to say, it's her. ”

As the author of the original novel, Zhang Tan said that Liu Anfeng and Xiaolongnu are compatible, so even those who don't recognize Liu Anfeng will be speechless.

You can't always fight with other authors, you have to raise the bar and say that Liu Anfeng is not suitable.

Therefore, after the boot ceremony, the media reported that Liu Anfeng's dissatisfaction was much weaker.

……

Zhang Tan stayed in the crew for two days.

watched the filming, and then left, the book still has to be read, and it is not good to ask for too much leave. After returning from Xiangshan Film and Television Base, Zhang Tan calculated the time, and after a while, he would have a winter vacation.

So I worked hard to study.

This semester he bought a bunch of extracurricular books, all of which were about directing, and planned to read them during his school years, but half of them were not opened.

"The Four Famous Fighting Generals" is also planned to end at the end of the year, but half of it has not been written.

Originally, I was going to make a short film as an assignment for this semester, but I haven't started it yet.

Nortel's directing department has homework every semester, a simple work, which can be regarded as a summary of the knowledge learned this semester. Of course, students can't make movies and TV series, and in fact, they can't even afford film.

The final assignment is to shoot some short films with videotapes, and the Beijia University Student Film Festival has also set up a special video contest for college students.

"I'm rich, I don't make videotapes, I make professional short films!"

Zhang Tan touched his chin, wondering whether to take the time to make a classic micro-film according to the original plan, or to hurry up and shoot a comedy work to deal with things. (To be continued.) )
