Chapter 259: Shooting Commercials
"What do you think?" Ling Chen frowned and asked Zhang Qiang, Wu Xuehu, and Zhou Ruotong nearby.
Zhang Qiang and Wu Xuehu smiled awkwardly, they obviously felt Ling Chen's dissatisfaction, so they said a little sneeringly: "It's okay, after all, Director Wei has been a director who has been famous for many years, and he has also made a lot of commercials and films, and his ability is still good." ”
Ling Chen's dissatisfaction became more and more obvious, and Zhang Qiang was so frightened that he stopped talking. Ling Chen pondered for a while, and then said, "Mr. Zhang, you go and call all the directors present to me." ”
Not long after, all 5 directors from the company came, 2 of them were full directors, and the other 3 were assistant directors. The two directors are relatively old, looking at their faces, they are almost 4 or 50 years old, and the other three are young after all, and one of the young assistant directors in a white T-shirt caught Ling Chen's attention, because he looked less than 30, and he was the youngest here.
Several directors came to the tent of the venue to respectfully greet Ling Chen, Wei Hongjun is an old man in the company, and naturally knows that Ling Chen is the big boss in the company. He was well-dressed, his face was a little tired, his eyes were a little blank, and he still said hello very politely after seeing Ling Chen.
The director of another company is named Tian Jianqiang, who is also a middle-aged man in his 40s, he looks better at talking, with a smile on his face, and after politely greeting Ling Chen, he stepped aside.
Ling Chen politely greeted them in turn, and then politely asked Director Wei Hongjun, who was the oldest in qualifications, "Director Wei, look at it from your eyes." Will the commercial film filmed this time pass? ”
Wei Hongjun directly took out a pack of hardcover Hibiscus King from his pocket, ignoring everyone's emotions. Directly extracted a branch and pointed it up.
"This shoot is much better than the previous two, I think it will definitely pass." Wei Hongjun said confidently. Then he spat out a smoke ring. He relied on his old qualifications, and everyone here was his junior, so he naturally had the confidence to be arrogant in front of Ling Chen.
"Really? What if not? Although Ling Chen was dissatisfied with Wei Hongjun's behavior, he was afraid that he was the oldest in the company, so he spoke more politely.
"I've been shooting commercials and videos for so many years, which time is not to satisfy customers, this time the customer is the most picky customer I have ever met, if it can't pass, it can only mean that this customer is deliberately trying to make things difficult for us. Hum! Wei Hongjun continued to take a puff of cigarette and snorted dissatisfiedly.
In fact, this advertisement NG twice, so that his face was a little unbearable, he was already angry in his heart, thinking that this customer deliberately came to find his fault, Ling Chen's somewhat respectful tone made him a little fluttery, after all, Ling Chen is so big, and his mouth is hairless, so he doesn't respect this big boss who is about the same age as his son very much.
Ling Chen continued to smile. It's just that his eyes are a little cold. He stood up and directly threw the few photographed advertising tapes handed over by Zhang Qiang just now to the ground, and the sound made everyone startled directly.
"Is the customer deliberately making things difficult for you? Who do you think you are? Ling Chen said coldly, "Do you know that this customer was brought in by me who worked hard to find a relationship?" Do you know how strong the other company's financial resources are? You don't want to cherish this opportunity to make a name for yourself. Instead, blame the customer for deliberately making things difficult for you? Do you count that green onion? ”
"If your technology is not in place, you blame the customer for deliberately making it difficult, have you ever reflected on it?" Ling Chen walked to Wei Hongjun's side and asked loudly.
Wei Hongjun's old face turned red. It was blue and white, and I was almost speechless. However, the staff next to him and a few assistant directors secretly bowed their heads and laughed. Because they can't get used to this old qualifications and great fame. Wei Hongjun, who acted recklessly and didn't take anyone else in his eyes at all. If it's not all for work, who will bird him? Seeing that this guy was stunned when he was reprimanded by the big boss Ling Chen, they only felt very relieved.
"Me!" Wei Hongjun blushed, "Since you think I can't do it, then you can ask Gao Ming, I won't do it yet!" Wei Hongjun stood up, awkwardly threw the cigarette butt in his hand, and then prepared to leave.
"Sit down!" Ling Chen said lightly, his tone was unquestionable.
Wei Hongjun's body stiffened, and then he remembered that the big boss in front of him was a big man with hands and eyes, and he would do it if he didn't agree with him, thinking that the manager of the security department was abolished by him, as soon as he thought of this, his heart was a little scared, so he obediently sat down in the position just now, without the arrogance just now, and looked at Ling Chen's eyes with some fear.
"You have to shoot a commercial for me today, just because you can't do it doesn't mean that others can't!" Ling Chen said lightly, then turned his head to look at the other directors, "How many of you can direct, right?" Do you have any good ideas for this commercial? ”
"I can tell you clearly, although the quality of the previous commercial is not bad, but there is no novelty at all, it is simply a bad street, if such a commercial is screened, what is the difference with other beverage commercials? How to arouse customers' desire to buy? ”
Everyone didn't speak, and the scene was a little cold at this time. Wu Xuehu and Zhang Qiang took the initiative to speak, asking these directors to think of a good idea and creativity.
"Mr. Ling, do you think this will work? We took Miss Zhou Ruotong as the heroine, holding the customer's drink with her hand, and then used the stunt design drink to revolve around Miss Zhou Ruotong. 'What do you think?' Among the several directors, the youngest assistant director stood up and said to Ling Chen.
"I think I can add, it's better to ask a male protagonist to ask him to hand the snow honey drink to Miss Zhou Ruotong, and then Miss Zhou Ruotong makes a happy expression, what do you think?" Another assistant director added.
"What's your name?" Ling Chen asked the young assistant director.
"Wu, Wu Ji!" Wu Ji said to Ling Chen with some great honor.
"What about you?" Ling Chen asked again by pointing to the director he had just added.
"Zeng Xian." Similarly, Zeng Xian also has a sense of honor to report his name.
Ling Chen sat on the chair just now, thinking about the advertisements for various drinks in the later generations, and finally, locked on an incomparably classic beverage advertisement.
"Okay, Director Wei, didn't you say that the customer is making things difficult for us? I don't think they can get through the idea I conceived this time, and if they do, I see if you have anything else to say. After Ling Chen finished speaking lightly, he said directly to Zhang Qiang and Wu Xuehu: "In the future, Wu Ji and Zeng Xian will be vigorously cultivated. ”
"Yes!"
Hearing Ling Chen's words, Wu Ji and Zeng Xian looked at each other and smiled, the eyes of both sides were extremely happy, and the other younger assistant director was a little regretful and envious, if only he had just said some ideas to the big boss, maybe the big boss would vigorously cultivate himself. You know, they have been assistant directors for several years, and they have always dreamed of standing alone, and even shooting commercials and even movies alone.
"You two, after filming the advertisement, when the time comes, go to Mr. Zhang's office, I have something for you to do, this time in front of you is a great opportunity, if you can grasp it, you will quickly become a first-class director in China." Ling Chen said to them indifferently.
"Yes, yes!" Wu Ji and Zeng Xian said excitedly.
Wei Hongjun on the side heard Ling Chen's big words, and couldn't help but snort coldly in his heart, expressing great disdain for Ling Chen's words, is a domestic first-class director so easy to be? Wu Ji and Zeng Xianmao are not the same, what do you want to be a first-class director in China, joke!
After resting for a while, Ling Chen asked Wu Xuehu to pick the most temperamental and handsome male artist in the company. After all the personnel were ready, Ling Chen was ready to say his idea, and the eyes of everyone present lit up, especially Zhou Ruotong, who was sinking into the fish and falling geese, looking at Ling Chen with a pair of big eyes, full of surprise and admiration.
Ling Chen's idea was to plagiarize Jay Chou's milk tea advertisement, but Ling Chen was ready to go further, because the advertisement was mainly designed for Zhou Ruotong, if the milk tea was copied, Zhou Ruotong's sense of existence would be reduced a lot, so Ling Chen changed his thinking, the male protagonist sweated and bought a snow honey drink for the heroine, Zhou Ruotong held the snow honey drink in his hand, with a happy look, and then the scene changed, in an extremely romantic scene, Zhou Ruotong held the snow honey drink in his hand, and then said, 'Holding snow honey, you are in my heart'.
"Mr. Ling, will there be anything wrong with us changing the customer's advertising words without permission?" Wu Ji raised his own questions.
"There's nothing wrong with it, the advertising words I changed for him are appropriate, and they rhyme well." Ling Chen said confidently. At this time, it was still the end of 04, and Ling Chen didn't believe that with so many drink advertisements he had seen, it would not work.
The filming was handled by Ling Chen himself, this is Ling Chen's first time participating, in his previous life, it can be said that everyone is a director, because everyone has a fully functional mobile phone in their hands, Ling Chen is no stranger to shooting.
NG several times, Zhou Ruotong was a little panicked, Ling Chen asked Wu Ji to shoot, and he personally went over to comfort Zhou Ruotong.
"Take it easy, you'll do it!" Ling Chen patted Zhou Ruotong's shoulder and gently encouraged.
Maybe it was because it was not Ling Chen who shot it himself, and with Ling Chen's encouragement, Zhou Ruotong was much more natural, so the effect of the second shot made Ling Chen more satisfied. When Ling Chen announced OK, everyone present jumped for joy.
"Okay, in order to celebrate this success, the company will invite everyone present to have a big dinner today!" After Ling Chen finished speaking, the atmosphere completely reached a high ~ tide. (To be continued......)
