Next chapter

On the third day of the Lunar New Year after the Spring Festival, Director Yang Jie went to the crew to start work, and Lin Qiangsheng and Liu Xiaoqing also arrived at CCTV.

Chen Yao did not return to Bincheng, but accompanied Lin Qiangsheng to the Broadcasting Building, she was very interested in film and television dramas, and she was entangled to join the crew. Lin Qiangsheng felt that she was hot for three minutes, so he agreed and asked her to do unpaid field work.

"Lin, this is our 86-year plan, we plan to finish filming 9 episodes such as "Raiders of the Lost Lotus Cave" this year, this is the script, you can take a look at it first." Yang Jie said.

Lin Qiangsheng took the script, flipped through it, and Chen Yao came over curiously.

After a rough look at the first two episodes, Lin Qiangsheng said: "Okay, I don't have any opinion on your plan." It's not easy for screenwriters to write a good book, you have to give them enough time, I don't want to see it, because of my investment, your original tacit understanding has been broken! ”

Yang Jie breathed a sigh of relief, she thought that Lin Qiangsheng would ask "Journey to the West" to finish filming quickly by virtue of his identity as an investor, but she didn't expect this young man to be so reasonable.

"Since you agree, then we'll shoot according to the plan!" Yang Jie said.

Lin Qiangsheng mentioned: "What is the salary of the crew now? ”

Yang Jie didn't understand why he asked, but also said: "My salary is the highest in the crew, 90 yuan a month; Monkey and Zhu Bajie have to wear hoods and props because they have to wear headgear, 80 yuan a month; Tang Seng and Sha Monk did not have a hood, and they were 70 yuan a month; Other screenwriters, videographers, and makeup artists are fifty or sixty yuan, and other field work is only thirty or forty yuan a month, and even lower. Everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones, just wanting to shoot the scene well! ”

"Is Li Chengru still in the crew, I didn't see his name." Lin Qiangsheng flipped through the roster casually and said.

Yang Jie had to think about it for a while before recalling: "You Li Chengru, he has been doing drama affairs in our crew for several years, and he has always wanted to find a role, he wants to play Tang Seng, I didn't let him, he went to the sea to do business last year, and he heard that he was in the clothing business." ”

"He's going to the sea?" Lin Qiangsheng was quite surprised.

Li Chengru is the mentally ill person in "Big Shot" who "doesn't ask for the best but asks for the most expensive", this guy actually wants to play Tang Seng, it is estimated that Director Yang Jie is afraid that the audience will not do ≦≦≦≦, m.☆.o↓m. In other words, the crew of "Journey to the West" or these early crews, as long as they carefully pick and choose in it, there are really many big names in the film and television industry in the future.

Lin Qiangsheng continued: "Director Yang, you and the actors have worked too hard, and the amount of effort is not proportional to the receipt." Think about the hot day, the actors have to have a full set of props on their bodies, especially Brother Monkey, with a hairy face, this sin is enough! ”

Liu Xiaoqing laughed when he heard this, and said, "Brother Johnson, this salary is not low." In fact, the salary for making TV series is already very high, and I can't get so much money for making movies, they have to shoot for several years. ”

Chen Yao also said strangely: "I can't imagine that the salary for filming movies and TV series is so low, and the salary is not as high as that of our dance troupe!" ”

Director Yang and Liu Xiaoqing both looked over, she knew that she was speechless, and she covered her mouth suddenly, staring at everyone with a pair of big eyes.

Lin Qiangsheng glanced at her with a smile, how did Chen Yao know what society was like, in the dance troupe, finances were not up to her.

Yang Jie said: "There is some hard work, but this salary is still relatively high for ordinary workers, we usually have a salary, plus the salary is more than 100 yuan a month." ”

, she looked at Lin Qiangsheng in surprise, guessing the purpose of his question, the crew suddenly had so much more funds, and everyone was also talking about the possible increase in salary.

Sure enough, Lin Qiangsheng said: "Let's raise the salary of the crew first, and my idea is to multiply it on the original basis." Not only Director Yang, but also the main actors such as Brother Monkey and Zhu Bajie must be mentioned, and even the cameraman and makeup artist must be mentioned, "Journey to the West" is a classic TV series, and your salary is too low compared to this achievement! ”

Yang Jie was taken aback, including Liu Xiaoqing, the salary has been doubled, then she is 70 yuan per month, plus the cameraman Wang Chongqiu is her husband, the monthly salary of two people can reach 40 yuan, this is Benkang's standard!

After being surprised, Yang Jie gritted her teeth and rarely struggled, but finally shook her head again and again: "No, there is too much money, too much!" ”

Lin Qiangsheng also knew that Yang Jie had scruples, the crew of "Journey to the West" was invested so much money all of a sudden, and then the salary was raised, which would definitely cause an uproar in Taiwan, and it was already a sensation now.

In other words, if everyone can still look at foreign investment rationally, then they will definitely not be able to see Yang Jie and others increase their salaries again, and all good things cannot be accounted for by the crew of "Journey to the West". If the crew's salary rises so much, then the opposition will drown out the entire crew, and then there will be a lot of criticism and jealousy around them, and then everyone will not be able to work.

Yang Jie explained the matter to Lin Qiangsheng, and Liu Xiaoqing was also dissuaded by the side, and said bitterly: "Qiangsheng, you can't do this, we know that you have good intentions, but if you raise your salary so much, others in the station will be dissatisfied!" ”

Liu Xiaoqing was also a little envious of Yang Jie, she had a meal with Lin Qiangsheng on the first day of the new year, and the two talked about the company's development plan.

At the end, Lin Qiangsheng chatted with her about the salary again, and the annual salary he gave was 400 yuan, 00 yuan per month, which already made Liu Xiaoqing very happy, which was higher than the salary in the Central Station.

And Lin Qiangsheng not only really gave money, but immediately paid her half a year's salary in advance, which also made Liu Xiaoqing excited.

Lin Qiangsheng sighed, since Yang Jie and Liu Xiaoqing both felt that it was not feasible, he had no choice but to say: "Okay, just mention a piece of remuneration, add 50 yuan per person, this is always okay, anyway, there are not many people in the crew now!" ”

The entire "Journey to the West" crew has only more than 20 official members, not counting the spider spirits, jade rabbit spirits and other extras who play monsters, those people are all looking for them.

And many fairies and monsters are cameos by the crew, such as Yan Huaili, who plays Monk Sha, has made a cameo appearance of more than 0 roles, Zhu Bajie Ma Dehua also has more than 10 roles, and there are six-year-old children. As for the less famous, there are more, such as Xiang Han, who not only played more than n fairies and monsters, but also the head of martial arts and art of the crew, so there is a method in which "Journey to the West" is performed by several people.

Yang Jie hesitated for a moment and said, "Lin, there is a situation where I have to talk to you." Since you invested, our crew has become the sweetheart of the station, and now it is no longer the original few people, I am blocking left and right, but I still can't stop some related households! ”

Lin Qiang shook his head and said: "I have long expected this situation, it is nothing to increase the manpower of the photography team, makeup team and other departments, but which actor played whom was originally planned, this must not be moved, I want the original "Journey to the West", if it is changed and loses the original taste, then I would rather withdraw the investment!" ”

"Huh?!" Yang Jie and Liu Xiaoqing were very surprised, they didn't expect Lin Qiangsheng to be like this. However, Yang Jie thought about it, she also has her own insistence, and she is very strict in choosing roles.

Lin Qiangsheng continued: "My idea is to shoot "Journey to the West" as well as possible, the crew can do some stunts, and I will invite a group of stuntmen from Hollywood, the United States, to come over and help guide your shooting!" ”

Yang Jie: "Then are the budgets of these foreigners included in the investment?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng said: "No, I personally came to pay this money, but I hope you will also seize the opportunity to learn technology like Hollywood people!" ”

Yang Jie laughed and said again and again: "That's good, then I'll thank you in advance, you can rest assured that I will definitely let people learn foreign stunt techniques!" ”

In the 80s, there was no complete concept of film and television stunts in China, but Yang Jie and others also knew that there was this technology abroad. Now Lin Qiangsheng has asked people from Hollywood to come over, Hollywood, just sounding like it has raised the grade of "Journey to the West" a lot.

"Ninety-nine-eighty-one is difficult, why do you have to shoot one hundred and eighty episodes to enjoy it!" Lin Qiangsheng longed for it, this is also his idea, he always feels that he has not seen enough performances of old artists such as Liulingtong, and when they realize that they are old, it can be described as a big regret in life.

Yang Jie shook her head with a smile and said, "One hundred and eighty episodes, that's impossible!" ”

"Why is it impossible, isn't "Journey to the West" ninety-nine eighty-one difficult?" This time, Lin Qiangsheng bought Journey to the West and flipped through it, and Chen Yao also followed and looked at it, she was very puzzled why she couldn't shoot it.

Yang Jie said: "It's true that "Journey to the West" has ninety-nine eighty-one difficulties, but in fact, the setting of eighty-one difficulties itself is not strict. Sometimes, in order to make up the number, the author divides the dilemma into two and three difficulties, such as the yellow wind and the dilemma of asking for Lingji, which is actually two stages of a story. The ancients wrote books and pressed back, and it is impossible for us to shoot TV series one episode at a time. ”

Director Yang found a book of Journey to the West, flipped it over and pointed at it, and said: "You see, for example, the three times in the original book, the fifty-third chapter - the Zen master swallows the cold and conceives a ghost, Huang Po transports the water to dissolve the evil fetus, the fifty-fourth chapter - the French sex comes to the west to meet the female country, and the heart ape plans to get rid of fireworks, the fifty-fifth chapter - the evil **** Tang Sanzang, the sexual practice is not bad." These three times in the TV series, we can only combine them into one episode, which is the daughter of Qujing. ”

"The original author divided this difficulty into three difficulties, and there are many such examples, and it is far-fetched to shoot 81 episodes."

Yang Jie looked at Lin Qiangsheng's disappointed face, and then said: "But we can try to enrich the plot as much as possible, it's okay to shoot more episodes, I can discuss it with the two screenwriters again." ”

She was also afraid that Lin Qiangsheng would not be satisfied, and in order to take care of this investor, she also secretly made up her mind that she must shoot more episodes.

Lin Qiangsheng patted his thigh and said: "Yes, Director Yang, how can the crew have only three screenwriters, not to mention that you are still the chief director, we have to invite a few more screenwriters, there are many people, you can see who else can enter the crew in the literary and artistic world, invite here!" ”

"Well, it's not impossible, I'll try it." Yang Jie hesitated for a moment and said. (To be continued.) )
