Chapter 091: Do It If You Like It
"Hope Mission" is an anti-Japanese war drama, and half of the crew that has been launched in Hengdian in recent years is an anti-Japanese war drama.
The story is that several outstanding cadets of the Wugang Military Academy of the Guoming Party have repeatedly completed the war against Japan on the front line and have been rewarded, but because of the corruption of the Guoming Party, the team has been framed several times, and Vice President Wang, who is kind to them, has also been framed to death. Ann defected to the Communists. Give birth. Party.
So several protagonists, immediately set off, all the way to avoid the pursuit of the Japanese, and was blocked by bandits, gangsters, Guoming Party troops and other forces. Nanbu. Gang-to-Yan. Ann, all the way north. Overcome vacillation, strengthen the will, heart to the light, and finally go through many difficulties and dangers to reach Yan. Ann, and joined the Chinese Communist Party. Give birth. Party.
This arduous mission full of hope has been accomplished.
As a group special, Xu Hao plays a soldier of the Guoming Party today, who is not too prominent, and stiffly completes the task of being used as a background board. Now Xu Hao has become more and more numb to the role of extras, and he has become more and more aware of what is called a living prop.
The living prop is that no one pays attention to it except himself.
Some Qunte will be lazy and let him perform and go shopping, he will play with his mobile phone when he turns his back, and some Qunte will simply sit there in a daze, and the director will not distract too much attention from the extras at all.
Of course, as the manager of the group performance, the little team leader must be supervised and strictly forbidden to be lazy during the performance.
Once discovered, Xu Hao will take advantage of the filming interval to unceremoniously criticize a few words, if the other party does not repent and continues to be lazy, then he will only be blacklisted.
For example, now, there are two group specials, who secretly played with their mobile phones when they were filming, and they were discovered by Xu Hao.
During the break, Xu Hao found these two group specials: "Who let you play with your mobile phone while filming!" ”
The two groups didn't speak, but their expressions were quite unconvinced.
Xu Hao said: "It's not that I don't give you a mobile phone, but don't take it out when filming, I found out the first time now, I won't say anything, when it hasn't happened." If you find it a second time, then I won't be able to speak, you have to remember. ”
After speaking, Xu Hao planned to go to Li Yukai and chat with them.
Just as he turned around, he heard one of the group complaining disdainfully: "Whatever is fierce, it's all mixed rice." ”
Xu Hao paused, turned around, and said: "I lead the team, management is a circle, freedom is in it, keep the rules, when have I ever managed you?" ”
The two groups stopped talking again.
Xu Hao didn't bother to say much, the little team leader is not a great identity, if the other party doesn't listen to him, then he can only break up and say goodbye next time.
However, the other party's words still stimulated Xu Hao a little.
"Mixed rice."
This is not ambitious at all, but it is a bloody portrayal of reality.
It has been almost a month since he came to Hengdian, and Xu Hao truly realized that the difficulties of Hengdian are not only material, but also spiritual. Every time I have the expectation of being discovered, I act with my heart, but every time I will be ruthlessly ignored, this conflict between ideals and reality happens every day.
If you perform more group performances, you will find that you seem to be more and more marginalized and deviate more and more from your goals.
In other words, every unnamed trick is a drain on willpower.
Xu Hao will also be afraid that one day his will will be used as a background board day after day, and he will be exhausted and reduced to the most ordinary group of people who drift horizontally.
This is a terrible situation, but it has to be taken into account.
"When the special appointment is stable, I can't run the group anymore!"
……
At noon, the [Legend of the Dragon Set] Kuaishou professional group started the filming of a new short film, limited to everyone's clothes and clothing, and the theme was still the theme of the Anti-Japanese War.
This time, they also specially prepared props and brought a card with three lines written on it that read "beef noodles", "big row noodles", and "light rice".
The limited space of the crew was used, an empty room, a table, and a wall, and the cards were pasted on the wall.
There are mainly four characters with lines, Xu Hao wears the prop costume of the Guoming Party and plays the role of "Emperor Xiejun"; Yang Chen wore a Japanese soldier costume and played the role of "Imperial Army"; Yan Lei, a newly recruited member, wears the clothes of ordinary people and plays the role of "noodle shop owner"; Li Yukai is also wearing ordinary people's clothes and playing the role of "diner".
The storyline goes like this.
Xu Hao, the dog-legged emperor's army, was waiting for the Japanese imperial army uncle, and went into the noodle restaurant to eat: "Taijun, what do you want to eat, I'll have some." ”
"You, go away, I know Chinese characters!" Yang Chen pretended to learn the Japanese accent.
Then the camera is given to the cards.
The name of the rice that should have been read horizontally, Yang Chen read it horizontally, and said loudly word by word: "I want to eat a bowl of beef...... Big...... Convenient! ”
Then, Xu Hao, Yan Lei, and Li Yukai were dumbfounded together, and Li Yukai also sighed: "This beast can really be eaten!" ”
This video has more lens switching than the previous two short films, and it took several times to get through. Then it was uploaded to the Kuaishou community, waiting for others to like it.
[Legend of the Dragon Set] has two small pieces as the base, and now it has gained more than 100 fans.
Although it was shabby and insignificant, it still made the members excited, and they wanted to get the approval and affirmation of others, and draw happiness from it.
"Xu Hao, I think it's necessary to make a promotional video now!" At four o'clock in the afternoon, the crew called it a day, and on the way back, Li Yukai was still immersed in the development of [Legend of the Dragon Set].
"Promo?"
"Yes, we just spread some films, and others don't know us, so it's just a hilarity. We should set up a WeChat group, and then shoot a promotional video to introduce several of us, saying that we are all actors who come to Hengdian to find our dreams, and share our stories with everyone, so that others will pay more attention to us. ”
Li Yukai's words made Xu Hao a little moved, everyone came to Hengdian, saying that the best thing is to chase the dream of being an actor, to put it bluntly, it is to seek fame and fortune, and the reason why celebrities make money depends on fans.
Even if you are in a humble position and can't rely on fans, it's good to pay more attention and encouragement and get a little more vanity.
"Okay, let's go back and talk about it."
Back to Xu Hao's rental house, five people.
Xu Hao, Yang Chen, Ji Xiang, Li Yukai, and Yan Lei began to discuss the promotional film plan of [Legend of the Dragon Set] on the idle egg. It's a discussion, and it's basically decided in three minutes, and it's going to be done.
The promotional video is also very simple, and many well-known users on Kuaishou will take a picture of themselves to introduce themselves.
"Xu Hao, do you want to call Liu Yiyao and Hu Xueqiong?" Yang Chen suddenly thought that Liu Yiyao and Hu Xueqiong were also clamoring to join the [Legend of the Dragon Set] Kuaishou professional group.
"Oh yes, I almost forgot about the two of them, okay, I'll call."
Xu Hao dialed the phone, Liu Yiyao and Hu Xueqiong were free this afternoon, I heard that it was [Legend of the Dragon Set] that convened a meeting of all the members, both of them were stunned for a moment, probably forgetting about this team, but they still readily agreed, and they will come over in a while.
This meeting is half an hour.
The five people who were waiting for the bored had already laid out the outline of the promotional video.
The form is very simple, a few photos, a few words, with some moving music, and it's OK.
"The copywriting will be handed over to Yan Lei to write, and strive to write something that touches people, but don't be too sensational, we don't take the route of sensationalism, we take the humorous route! Kai Ge is in charge of the soundtrack and editing, haven't you learned a little bit of video software editing! The few of us are left to give advice. Xu Hao said.
Without the unification of the two female members, Xu Hao made the decision without authorization.
After a while, Liu Yiyao and Hu Xueqiong finally rushed over, and when they came to Xu Hao's place for the first time, they were immediately warmly welcomed by five livestock.
"Wow, mouse, what a big mirror in your house!" Liu Yiyao and Hu Xueqiong were attracted by the mirror at the same time.
Xu Hao nodded: "When I practice martial arts, I like to look in the mirror to see if the movements are in place, come on, we have just determined the general direction of the meeting...... Looking for the two of you today, I am discussing the filming of a promotional video of [Legend of the Dragon Set], and you can give some advice. ”
The two did not have any opinions, but Xu Hao was the first to look forward.
In this way, the promotional video of [Legend of the Dragon Set] is in full swing. At night, everyone didn't have a crew to run, and they all had free time, so they gathered in Xu Hao's rental house and used Xu Hao's notebook to start creating.
And in just one night, they made a promotional video.
The film is very simple, with a slightly cheerful song "Traveling-Light", a few stills of everyone, a few subtitles, listening to the music and looking at the subtitles, you can immediately read the dreams of these people in [Legend of the Dragon Set].
"Hello everyone, we are [Legend of the Dragon]."
"A small team with the goal of making short films that are fun and fun."
"There are seven of us at the moment."
"Xu Hao, Yang Chen, Ji Xiang, Li Yukai, Hu Xueqiong, Liu Yiyao, Yan Lei."
"We come from all over the world, we know each other in Hengdian and chase our dreams together."
"We are the actors, the strangers you know best."
"In other people's stories, he plays the role of passers-by."
"But in our own stories, we are all male and female protagonists."
"We will insist on shooting fun and fun short films, Bojun smiles, and shows off our sense of existence."
"If you like our film, please double-click to support, give me a heart, leave a comment, and pay attention."
"Be happy because you share, and persist because you interact."
"[Legend of the Dragon Set] exists because of you."
"PS: WeChat group number XXXXXX."
……
When the promotional video is uploaded, there are four short films under the ID of [Legend of the Dragon Set].
Xu Hao doesn't know this ID, how long his group of people can operate, and he doesn't know who will quit and who will insist, and he doesn't know what the meaning of this ID is.
But do things need to be meaningful?
If you like to do it, you will do it, such a simple belief.
