Long * sand, early morning, fresh air.

Lu Zhengyu hung up the identity card and walked into the "Lingxiao Pavilion" with his head held high.

"Xiao Liu, it's early!"

"Director Lu, morning!"

Lu Zhengyu happily greeted the little sister at the front desk, and the little sister smiled happily with a "Lu Dao".

"That's right, Director Lu." When he was about to leave after signing his name, he was stopped by Xiao Liu: "Mr. Chen informed you that you will go to the 306 small conference room for a meeting at 8:30." ”

"I see, thanks."

Lu Zhengyu's office is on the 4th floor, although he is only a newcomer now, only shooting a few campus DV works, but Chen Lin values him very much, not only gave him a separate office, and the salary subsidies are much higher than those of ordinary newcomers, not only that, the company also formulated a detailed study plan for him, just arranging for him to participate in Zhou Xingchi's film production in the future, he is envious of the dead.

8 o'clock, Room 306.

The people have arrived, in addition to Chen Lin and Lu Zhengyu, there is also a project management supervisor and two screenwriters.

An assistant came in and made a cup of tea for Chen Lin and gave each of the other three a bottle of mineral water.

Chen Lin took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and announced the start of the meeting.

"The content of today's meeting is to discuss the preparations for the company's first online homemade comedy, 'Hip Hop Quartet.'"

The so-called online self-made dramas are simply short dramas that are generally only broadcast on video networks, and this kind of drama is usually not long, with an episode between 5-15 minutes.

"In this drama, I decided to use all the main actors to use newcomers, including director Xiaolu is also a newcomer, although this is a work dominated by newcomers, and the investment is very small, and the budget for the first phase is less than 80,000 yuan. But--" Chen Lin emphasized in a changed tone: "This does not mean that this company does not pay attention to it, otherwise I would not need to preside over this meeting today." ”

Everyone was excited when they heard it, especially the two screenwriters who were excited after hearing it. Originally, I didn't like to let them be in charge of a small work.

"This work is an important part of the company's online video strategic plan this year." Chen Lin briefly told the four of them that this year, the company will cooperate with Pentium Technology to focus on the development of Youku video website, shoot online dramas to gather brand effect for the website, and he added: "As long as "Hip Hop Quartet" is successful. The company will launch more web dramas in the future. ”

"Xiaolu, you are solely responsible for this project. What are your thoughts on the cast selection? ”

"Mr. Chen, "Hip Hop Quartet" reflects the comedy of office life, and the main actors are 4 people, the manager, Xiao Qiao, Meng Zhaojun, and Xiao Qiang in the design department. If you use all newcomers, it is not eye-catching enough. Lu Zhengyu suggested: "I have an idea that I don't know if it's appropriate? ”

"Don't be afraid to say what you think." Chen Lin encouraged: "Don't estimate what to say wrong. ”

"Mr. Chen, can we invite some Internet celebrities to perform, they are newcomers, and the price is not high. At the same time, it also has a certain reputation. ”

"That's a good idea." Chen Lin agreed: "Since it is an online drama, inviting Internet celebrities complements each other." ”

"I think of a person who can choose Xiaoqiang." At this time, a screenwriter said excitedly: "What do you think of 'Internet Chubby'?" ”

"Internet Chubby?"

A spoofed and interesting image of "Little Fatty" suddenly appeared in everyone's minds, the Internet Chubby's real name is Qian Zhijun, and he is a native of Shanghai. In 2003, some netizens posted a photo of him on the Internet, which immediately triggered a wave of spoofs among netizens. Many colorful chubby spoof photos have appeared in major forums, and now Chubby has also become the first person to spoof on the Internet.

"Okay, I think the role of Xiaoqiang is set as an Internet chubby." Chen Lin slapped the board, and then said: "I think the protagonist of the manager will be played by Xiaolu yourself." ”

"Hey, hey." Lu Zhengyu smiled and said, "Originally, I wanted to play this manager." I'm afraid that Mr. Chen, you don't agree, so I'm relieved. ”

"This manager is a slut. It's very obscene, and you have to be. ”

"Boss, you're a hero."

Lu Zhengyu didn't feel embarrassed at all, his expression was still very proud, and he shook his head after speaking. His cheap appearance made everyone laugh.

Next. Lu Zhengyu gave full play to his talent, thinking that he wanted to find two contrasting women, one was very beautiful to play Xiao Qiao, and the other was fat and cute to play Zhaojun, and at the same time he also made a bold suggestion to invite Chen Lin to make a guest appearance in the advertising company Mr. Wang.

Chen Lin agreed to make a cameo, and at the same time praised it greatly, and promised that as long as the director thinks it is necessary, he can invite all the stars of the group company to make a cameo.

The boss made such a guarantee, which made Lu Zhengyu excited, if he didn't make good use of it and invited several big stars of the company, especially the goddess, to make cameos, wouldn't it be a waste of the boss's kindness?

So, in the following days, Lu Zhengyu and the two screenwriters began to write and improve the script.

A month later, the "Hip Hop Quartet" crew was officially established. Due to limited funds, the crew did not carry out any form of publicity, nor did there be any start-up ceremony, but Chen Lin himself paid for everyone to dinner......

On the afternoon of March 20, 2005, the filming venue of "Hip Hop Quartet" was an office on the 6th floor of Jade Emperor Entertainment.

"Attention of all departments, the first set of shots of the first scene of the hip-hop quartet 'Chen Xiaoqiao's application' will start now." With the order, the crew officially started filming.

The first episode of "Hip Hop Quartet" is about Xiao Qiao applying for a job, and Xiao Qiao was stared at by the manager at the application scene, and was finally signed by the manager on the spot. And arrange Xiao Qiao to work in the design department. After Xiao Qiao left, the manager jumped up excitedly, but at this time Xiao Qiao turned back.

The first episode is only 5 and a half minutes long, but there are a lot of laughs, and the first shot is a photo hanging on the wall.

In the photo, the manager is propped up on the desk with one hand, and his two eyes are staring very intently ahead. Interestingly, in the next second, the manager stared at Xiao Qiao with exactly the same movements and the same eyes.

The manager's eyes are mimetic, his expression seems to be thinking very seriously, and he seems to be in a daze, just looking at the photo is definitely not reminiscent of looking at a beautiful woman, coupled with his very cheap atmosphere from head to toe, which is full of unexpected jokes.

No, it's such a simple scene because of the laughter ng 5 times.

"Hahaha~~" Chen Lin laughed the loudest, "The manager is so cheap, I'm sorry, I laughed." ”

Even the boss laughed, and the others laughed even more, and the next conversation between the manager and Xiao Qiao was full of joy.

Manager: Ah, Miss Chen Xiaoqiao, that, I hope this doesn't embarrass you too much. Because, I've found that the best way to pick people is to stare at them for a long time, looking at them.

(After speaking, the manager suddenly stared at Xiao Qiao again, and Xiao Qiao's expression was very embarrassed, and his eyes didn't know where to look)

(After a long silence)

The manager (who breaks the silence): That

Little Joe: What?

Manager: I'll hire you!

Little Joe: Ah, that's great!

Manager: Nervous?

Little Joe: Yes!

Manager: Don't be so nervous.

Little Joe: Actually, I'm not that nervous.

Manager: Strange, it stands to reason that you should be nervous.

Little Joe: It was actually a little bit nervous.

Manager: Don't be nervous! A little confidence, okay?!

Little Joe: You decide on one

5 and a half minutes in an episode, but it took two hours to shoot because of constant laughter. Everyone didn't care about the wasted time, but felt that the filming process was full of laughter.

Chen Lin was also very happy to stay with this energetic crew, but unfortunately the first season of "Hip Hop Quartet" was filmed in a week, and the next time we get together will be until the second season.

Internet Xiaopang was also appreciated by Chen Lin because he joined the show, signed a contract with the Royal Court Agency, and became a professional artist. The manager was sent by Chen Lin to other crews of the company as assistant directors and went to study.
