Chapter 18 Fill in the entry form
Compensating for the shortcomings and amplifying the advantages can both improve the quality of the work. Knowing that it pokes the hearts of the audience, and constantly repeating the old skills in the future, and practicing perfectly, is also a way to progress.
After studying the comments for a while, Xu Fu suddenly received a phone call, which was an unfamiliar number.
When I picked it up, I heard the other end say, "Are you Xu Fu?" I'm the instructor of the film club, you come to me today and fill out a form. In this way, your micro-film work can be entered. ”
"Teacher, may I ask your surname? How to get there? Xu Fu hurriedly asked.
"My surname is Ji." Then, the teacher said the location, and then said, "You bring a copy of your script with you when you come." By the way, what's the name of your microfilm? ”
In fact, Xu Fu hasn't thought about it yet. I was hesitating whether to use "To Listen to the Dead" or "Ghost Around the Corner". He said: "I have to confirm the title of the movie with the team again. Teacher Ji, I'll bring all these things to you later. ”
"Why don't you even have a name? Then you can get it quickly. The instructor sighed. It seems that the vice president also recommended a personal candidate casually, and he didn't really want to win over Zhang Dongmu.
After Xu Fu hung up the phone, he called Qu Jingmo again and asked for the name of the micro-movie.
"Your name is so thunderous!" As soon as Qu Jingmo heard it, he directly gave a bad review: "It's also "Encounter a Ghost Around the Corner", where is the corner." Isn't that incorrect? ”
Xu Fu said humbly: "What's so good?" ”
Qu Jingmo thought for a while and said, "Aren't your stories all in the same house?" Let's call it "Ghost House". It's easy to remember, isn't it? ”
Xu Fu thought about it, and he was as good as a stream: "Okay, then "Ghost House". ”
……
In the morning, Xu Fu sent the script to the instructor's office. Teacher Ji is a man in his thirties who nodded his head, he opened the script, and only after reading the first paragraph, he glared at Xu Fu in surprise.
"You're going to make this kind of micro-film? Did you know that this is not in line with the spirit of the country's scientific development? Teacher Ji asked Xu Fu.
Xu Fu explained: "I have loved watching horror movies since I was a child. I plan to put it on the Internet after I do it, and just punch the clicks. If it weren't for the recommendation of the senior sister of the film club, I wouldn't have the heart to participate in the school competition. ”
"Click rate ......" Teacher Ji read the script from beginning to end, and then said with a complicated gaze: "You can't get the school's sponsorship for this script." ”
Xu Fu was simply surprised in his heart, the last time the senior sister saw his story, the first thing she said was that she couldn't get sponsorship. Teacher Ji is the same. Is it true that students make movies for sponsorship?
Don't say it, it may be. It's like mooncakes are selling well during the Mid-Autumn Festival, not because people are suddenly hungry for mooncakes. People who buy platinum don't want to make up for their heads.
The same may be true of the micro-films made by the students. But their gameplay has nothing to do with Xu Fu. Xu Fu said: "I paid for the shooting myself this time. You don't need to pay a penny. ”
“…… Really? The instructor was taken aback, stared at Xu Fu up and down for a long time, and then took out a list and asked Xu Fu to fill in: "After you finish writing these forms, you will officially participate in the competition." The finished product should be taken out before the end of the month, and the plot should not be too different from the script you handed in. These two are the main rules. For some other rules, you can read the entry guide yourself. ”
"Understood." Xu Fu nodded.
Xu Fu filled out the entry form and handed it back to Mr. Ji.
Teacher Ji and Xu Fu have no friendship, and they have nothing to say, and they are planning to let Xu Fu go. Suddenly, I saw that on the entry form, the number "5000" was written after the "shooting cost". Teacher Ji almost thought that he had made a mistake, and blinked his eyes before he believed that Xu Fu had really written five thousand yuan on it.
"Ha, haha." Teacher Ji laughed directly. It seems that Xu Fu is really a movie lover. But with only a cost of 5,000 yuan, what can be auctioned?
He shook his head and said, "It's fine. You go get busy. Looking forward to seeing your work. ”
In fact, in Mr. Ji's opinion, Xu Fu may not even be able to shoot. It's probably just hot-blooded. When you know how difficult it is to make a movie and hit the iron plate, you will know that the sky is high and the earth is thick.
Xu Fu was in a hurry, and he didn't have time to talk to a teacher. But just as he opened the door to go out, two people pushed the door and came in. One of them is Zhang Dongmu.
The other was obviously extremely excited, and said loudly: "Teacher Ji, Zhang Dongmu has just negotiated a cooperation with Campus Express and has won 100,000 shooting funds!" Let's change the entry form. ”
When Xu Fu heard the words "Campus Express Express", he firmly remembered it in his heart.
Zhang Dongmu, who came in after the excited boy, saw Xu Fu, his face was obviously stunned, and then smiled: "The junior brother is also participating, have you filled out the form?" We play fair and want you to give your best. ”
Xu Fu twitched the corners of his mouth, wanting to make an expression. But thinking that Zhang Dongmu might have fraudulently received Xu Fu's salary, Xu Fu really couldn't laugh. In this case, he was not pretentious and polite, nodded as a greeting, and left the office.
As soon as he arrived in the corridor, Xu Fu took out his mobile phone to check what kind of institution the "Campus Express Express" was. How could Zhang Dongmu be given 100,000 yuan in sponsorship.
It turns out that "Campus Express Express" is a courier contractor that specializes in college towns and provides services for students living on campus. At present, several Internet bigwigs are studying how to make e-commerce "break through the last 100 meters of campus". Taking advantage of this wind, Campus Express has attracted tens of millions of dollars in venture capital and is throwing money around to expand the market.
Sponsoring campus micro-films in order to make a name for themselves is probably one of the strategies of Campus Express.
Xu Fu immediately wondered in his heart, could he win some opportunities?
And in the office where Xu Fu had just left, Zhang Dongmu said cautiously: "Teacher Ji, what type of micro-film is the junior just now going to make?" ”
Where there are people, there is politics. The micro film club is such a small organization, and there are also intrigues. Zhang Dongmu has been thinking repeatedly in the past few days, the vice president is about to graduate, why don't you sell it to Zhang Dongmu? Instead, you want to recommend a little-known boy?
With Zhang Dongmu's practice, if he succeeds in becoming the president of the school film club, even if he can only be the president of the school film club, he can secretly dig out a lot of gray income. Could it be that the vice president found out about the interests inside and wanted to let his people occupy a position?
"You probably won't believe it. It's horror. Teacher Ji smiled, picked up the script Xu Fu just gave, and handed it to Zhang Dongmu: "You can understand it if you look at it." He's going to shoot something like that. I think it's a waste of time for him to sign up. ”
Zhang Dongmu stretched out his hand to take it, and first looked at the title, "Ghost House", and also felt funny. But then he saw the script writer, named "Xu Fu", and he couldn't help but be stunned. The name, he's seen.
After thinking about it for a moment, he thought of it. In order to gild, he worked part-time at a film script studio for a few months. While at work, he accidentally learned that the studio's payroll process was chaotic. As long as you claim to be "bringing whoever you are here", if you are lucky, the finance will see that several people are indeed in the same school, so you don't bother to check and pay your salary directly.
Zhang Dongmu then picked a time when he was too busy with finances to get the money. Finance was anxious to report to the boss, so Zhang Dongmu waited alone. Zhang Dongmu took the opportunity to steal through the list of personnel, and saw the name "Xu Fu" in the same school as him. When the finance came back, he panicked, and successfully received Xu Fu's share, and then smeared oil on the soles of his feet.
But on the financial list, the name of "Xu Fu" was also crossed out along with "Zhang Dongmu". That's why Xu Fu couldn't get the money.
Zhang Dongmu saw the name "Xu Fu" again and remembered the past. But one yard is one yard, and he obeyed Xu Fu's money, but as long as the police didn't arrest anyone, there was nothing to be afraid of.
Let's take a look at Xu Fu's script. Zhang Dongmu then looked at the text, and the more he read, the more focused he became. Obviously, what Xu Fu wants to do is more fun.
Small teams formed out of interest, with the potential to work wonders. Zhang Dongmu's heart was a little gloomy, this is a variable.
This time, a total of five teams participated in the micro-film competition. Zhang Dongmu also read the scripts of the other three teams around the corner. It's not bad, it's all youth micro-movies that are easy to get the leader's like. Zhang Dongmu also does that theme, but he has a large number of people, abundant funds, and the support of the instructor of the film club and the current president. In the competition of the same theme, he absolutely wins.
Can be used for Xu Fu's script...... Zhang Dongmu is no longer sure of nine out of ten. Xu Fu is really likely to make an unusually eye-catching micro-movie.
However, the boy with a loud voice next to Zhang Dongmu leaned his head and glanced at him twice, and smiled: "I actually want to use supernatural elements as a gimmick." Who's up with that bad idea? When the time comes, show it to the selection teacher, and it is estimated that you can scold it by slapping the table. ”
Zhang Dongmu nodded slightly when he heard this. That's the truth. Putting aside whether it looks good or not, it is absolutely impossible for the selection teacher to vote for Xu Fu's micro-film. If Xu Fu is bound to lose, then it doesn't matter how good-looking it is.
But Zhang Dongmu still had a few points hanging in his heart. What he could think of, it was impossible for the vice president who recommended Xu Fu to think of it. So, what is the confidence of the vice president and Xu Fu?
"Teacher Ji, have they applied for sponsorship fees?" Zhang Dongmu asked.
"Nope. I know that it is impossible to approve funds for this kind of subject matter. They paid 5,000 beats out of their own. Today's young people just don't take their parents' money as money. The instructor shook his head. thought that Xu Fu had taken out his living expenses.
Zhang Dongmu lives with himself, which feels wrong. Xu Fu paid out of his own pocket to make a movie, and he must have some intentions, and he must have relied on. It seems that it is better to directly co-opt this person, so that the threat will disappear completely. To retreat, we must also inquire about Xu Fu's background.
……
And after Xu Fu saw the reputation of "Campus Express Express", he had the idea of going to Mao Sui to recommend himself. The other party wants to spend money to buy publicity, and Xu Fu also needs money. He now only has 5,000 funds, which is only enough to shoot an episode in the most humble way. I still have to find money after filming.
It's better to try it now, if you can get sponsorship, Xu Fu will be able to shoot a higher quality first episode. And there are also funds to do the post-production, which makes people more comfortable to watch.
Xu Fu himself also knew that it was a bit beautiful to ask for money in the past with such empty words. So, he also planned what to do if he was rejected.
