Just when Han Li was busy with the crew's side of things, there were actually other things happening at the same time.

For example, the school has opened, and they have entered the second semester of the second year of their second year, and their professional courses are becoming more and more nervous.

And this semester, they will use the knowledge they learned in the first semester of their sophomore and junior years to freely combine several project teams to do some practical projects.

There is no limit to the type of project, but it is necessary to use the knowledge of digital art and design, as well as the courses studied. They are encouraged to carry out more experimental projects and actively innovate in form, technology, type, and content.

This project will be included in the final grades of this semester, so although Han Li does not have to attend classes, he must also participate in this project.

Of course, it wasn't that difficult for him to do such a project. On the one hand, these experimental projects during the university period are not very difficult, but they need to take time to do.

The second reason is that Han Li is backed by the company, whether it is animation, games, or film and television special effects post-production, there is a very good technical production team to support you, so he has a great advantage in this regard.

Even if he doesn't do it, he can find someone to help him do it. But Han Li still wants to give it a try and try to make some experimental projects by himself.

Of course, it depends on the time. You must know that in the first half of the year, his main energy should be on the crew's side, so it is really not certain whether he has the time and energy to do this project.

In addition, there was an incident during this time that was very important to Han Li.

That is, Qi Ran finally received the admission invitations from the two universities she applied to, which means that Qi Ran's study abroad is already a certainty.

But before that, she must complete her college studies and successfully get her graduation certificate before she can report to Laomei in mid-August.

Facing Qi Ran's joyful mood when he called, Han Li was very bitter in his heart. Although he smiled happily on the surface, he was still very depressed inside.

Originally, he still had a glimmer of hope, but he didn't expect to be disappointed in the end, so his heart was empty.

Of course, Han Li covered it up very well on the surface, and it did not affect the joyful mood of Qi Ran and Qi's father and mother.

Qi Ran, who has already received the admission invitation, is naturally in a much better mood than those senior graduates who are about to graduate and are still confused.

Of course, she wasn't much easier than the other seniors. First of all, she had to prepare her graduation thesis like everyone else. Although it is not like Han Li, who has to prepare graduation works like art students, just such a highly professional thesis makes many people crazy.

Therefore, since arriving at the school, Qi Ran has been constantly running to the libraries of major universities in Anxi and related enterprises to find information, collect data, and prepare to write his graduation thesis.

On the other hand, in order to improve her English proficiency, she weakened the impact on her learning after studying abroad because of her weak English proficiency. She enrolled in an English cram school at an English training institution to improve her English.

So even when I went back to school, the two of us didn't spend much time together. Both sides can understand and support each other in this regard.

For Han Li, studying abroad has always been Qi Ran's dream, and now he can achieve his wish, and he is also happy for it. I'm busy when I'm close to graduation, and I have to register for classes, so naturally I don't have much free time.

For Qi Ran, this film and television drama cost Han Li and their funds 100 million, and it is also related to the progress of Han Li's entire film and television project, so naturally it cannot be taken lightly. Therefore, she can also understand Han Li's experience on this.

Although the two often can't be together, or even see each other, the text messages and phone greetings from time to time also add a lot of spice to the lives of the two.

……

After a busy day, Han Li, who was exhausted, dragged his tired body back home. As soon as I opened the door, I found that the lights in my house were on.

Han Li was overjoyed, and while taking off his coat and putting on slippers, he shouted, "Why are you back?" ”

But to his surprise, his words were not answered, and Han Li immediately began to look for it. When he walked to the bathroom, Han Li heard the sound of the shower inside, and then his face smiled.

Then I went to the kitchen to see what I could cook for the evening. Although he ate out in the afternoon, he ate the crew's box lunch, and Han Li still missed the meals he made at home.

What he didn't expect was that there were bags of freshly bought vegetables on the kitchen board, and rice was steamed in the rice cooker.

In this regard, Han Li shook his head with a smile, and then began to clean the vegetables and get busy.

Not long after he was busy, Qi Ran, who had just finished taking a shower and was wearing a yukata, walked towards the kitchen with a smile while wiping his wet hair with a towel.

Looking at Han Li's busy figure, Qi Ran leaned on the threshold of the kitchen and said with a smile: "Conscious enough, I didn't say you did it yourself." ”

Han Li replied with a smile: "Of course, your rice is steamed, aren't you just waiting for me to come back." But then why didn't you call me earlier, so I wouldn't be delayed in the crew. ”

Qi Ran shook his head and smiled: "I also came back not long ago, so I didn't call you." I guess you're coming back soon, so I'll cook the rice first. ”

"Didn't you go to cram school today?" Han Li asked with a smile while busy.

Qi Ran shook his head and said, "No, rest today." In addition, it is inconvenient to take a bath at school, so come home and take a bath.

Also, I miss you too. ”

"Really." Han Li glanced back at Qi Ran and said in surprise.

Qi Ran glanced at Han Li and said, "What do you think?" ”

"Oh, I thought you were thinking about what I cooked, and came back with so many dishes." Han Li replied.

Qi Ran's face was slightly red, and then he said angrily: "I didn't think you were busy, there must be no food at home, so I passed by the nearby supermarket and bought some back." ”

"Oh, that's right." Han Li nodded.

"Of course, what do you think, I haven't gone to class yet, and I'm coming back to eat your meal." Qi Ran was a little weak-hearted.

Hehe, Han Li smiled and said, "Okay, hurry up and dry your hair, be careful of catching a cold." I'm so fast, I'll be ready to eat right away. ”

Qi Ran looked at the dishes that Han Li was cooking, and couldn't help but be curious: "What are you doing delicious today?" ”

When Han Li heard Qi Ran's words, he immediately smiled: "Just fry according to the vegetables you bought, sweet and sour tenderloin, tomatoes and eggs, garlic sprouts back to the pot meat, and a mapo tofu." ”

"Hehe, it's all my favorite dishes." Qi Ran smiled when she heard Han Li's words, and when she was about to leave, she suddenly thought of something, and then walked to Han Li's side, kissed him Han Li's cheek, and then ran out lightly.

And Han Li, who was a little stunned, felt the softness on his face for a moment, couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, and then concentrated on stir-frying.

……

Early the next morning, Han Li sent the ruddy Qi Ran to school, and then came to the crew with a sore back.

Sure enough, this gentle township still has to be tempered. Han Li was greedy twice last night, but he didn't expect that he had already started yawning in the morning.

All the way to the crew, Han Li came directly to the conference room, which was where they worked for the past two days.

As the time for the actors to join the group is getting closer and closer, the crew is getting busier and busier. As for Han Li, they have basically spent the past few days in the conference room, because there are various things waiting for them to meet to discuss and solve.

When Han Li came to the conference room, he found that the director Tong Yongjun, the assistant director Niu, and the photographer Zhou Ye, and several other assistant directors and production directors were basically there.

Seeing Han Li come in, everyone who was eating breakfast greeted him one after another.

"Little oak, have you eaten it?" Deputy Director Niu said to Han Lile.

Han Li nodded and said, "I've eaten it at home, so you can eat it." ”

"Yes, this one is good in the neighborhood, and you can eat ready-made. That's like us, no one loves anyone in the crew. The forty or fifty-year-old Niu Dao smiled at Han Li and quipped.

Hahahaha......

Facing everyone's laughter, Han Li shook his head with a wry smile. It may be that he is too young, so a cow guide and a photographer Zhou Ye like to joke about him. Of course, Han Li also knew that this was because people liked him and wanted to get close to him.

It's just that this joke of the older generation, Han Li always feels a little awkward.

After receiving the hot tea handed over by a drama crew, Han Li sat down, and then began to carefully look through the documents in front of him.

"What is the main job today?" Han Li asked while looking at the documents.

When the production director over there heard this, he immediately replied: "It's still some specific trivial matters, and there are also a few assistant directors and photographers who will be sent out today to shoot our urban scenes." ”

Hearing this, Han Li nodded and said, "Let's just let a few assistant directors and photographers go, and when the shooting comes back, we'll screen it again and settle it." ”

"That being said, it's actually quite troublesome." The production director sighed.

Hearing this, Han Li glanced at him and said with some doubts: "Is there any problem?" ”

The production director glanced at Han Li and said with a wry smile: "Actually, this matter is a good thing for other crews, but it is a trouble for us."

To put it simply, Mr. Han, you are too famous in Anxi, so many people want to rub your popularity. For example, in the school filming part of the male protagonist in the play, four or five universities have already sent us invitations to shoot on their campuses, and they are willing to fully cooperate with us in filming.

Among them, Mr. Han, your university, we don't know how to reply now.

In addition, it is some shopping mall street scenes. The street view is fine, but this mall is a little more troublesome. The better malls need to rent space from them, and the prices are not cheap.

Unless we can promise them to help them promote in the play, we also hope that Mr. Han or the characters in the play will endorse advertisements for them. ”

"This is obviously taking advantage of the fire to rob." Tong Yongjun said a little angrily when he heard this.

The director of production shook his head with a wry smile and said, "No way, who made us famous now, so these people are ready to find an opportunity to bite us." This matter is not easy to deal with, and if you are not careful, it may cause a storm in the city, which will have a great negative impact. ”

Hearing the words of the production director, Han Li also frowned, and then asked Niu Dao, who was sitting on the side, "Niu Dao, how did you solve such a thing before." ”

Niu Dao lit a cigarette, shook his head and said, "There's nothing you can do, these people just don't want to cause trouble, that's why they are so unscrupulous."

Of course, some shopping malls do have such a rule. After all, our shooting will also affect the normal operation of others and cause certain losses, so it is also appropriate to compensate for a certain amount of venue rental fees.

So this kind of thing is either to find a relationship and see if we can find a mall that allows us to shoot for free. Either it's just some money, and it's not much anyway. Finally, there is another method, which is to use the method of candid shooting, but the effect of shooting in this way is relatively poor, and it is easy to cause trouble in the later stage. ”

Hearing this, Han Li nodded and said, "Then pay some money and try to find someone with a better environment." And we shoot it ourselves, it's a kind of propaganda for them. So this matter can be discussed with these shopping malls, and there should not be much of a problem.

As for the school, you can do whatever you want, and you don't have to worry about me. If they talk about me, you will say that the director decides this matter, and I, the screenwriter, can't intervene. When I turn around and others look for me, I will reply like this, let's unify our voice, don't show your stuff. ”

Seeing that the production director nodded, Han Li sighed and said: "Sure enough, there are a bunch of things before filming has started, and I don't know how many moths will be made when filming really starts." ”

"Hehe, that's it in China, everything depends on relationships, and you can get used to it if you get used to it." Niu Dao said with a smile.

Tong Yongjun shook his head and said, "There are no such things in Hollywood. ”

"Hehe, the national conditions are different. And there are pros and cons to this thing, depending on how you look at it. Zhou Ye smiled at them and said: "In Hollywood, everyone does things according to the rules, so naturally there is no problem." But it's not necessarily a good thing to blindly follow the rules like this, and sometimes you still need to be a little flexible. For example, for the same thing, I can easily find some connections in China, but in Hollywood, I need to make an appointment to negotiate, and then pay the money.

You won't be able to adapt to it for a while when you return to China, but when you really get used to it, you will feel that the way it goes to Hollywood is not good. ”

"By the way, how's the props being prepared?" Han Li asked at the props team leader on the side, this is also something that Han Li is more concerned about.

Because it's a modern drama, the costumes and makeup are a little more relaxed. However, in terms of props, they encountered a lot of problems.

Especially the large and small props in the play, most of them have not been made yet. From the smallest jade pendant, a map, to a large car, a tomb, a ruined ancient city, etc., the props team and the art team have worked hard.

Of course, these are not their biggest headaches, their biggest headaches should be the weapons and equipment props of this show.
