Chapter 504: The Final Key

Xu Jin heard him talk about the future, and he was also full of expectations for the future of this drama.

"Director Wei, shoot well, gold will always shine. I am very optimistic about this drama, no matter whether it can be released in the summer or not, it will definitely be able to create a storm in the market. ”

He said with great confidence: "Although I didn't star in this drama, but with my investment, I will also promote it when the time comes, and it will definitely not be unknown after it is released, which can be guaranteed!" ”

With Xu Jin's words, Director Wei is more comfortable, and the pressure of filming is not as great as before.

In the process of filming later, Director Wei was more hands-free than before, and many whimsical ideas were born during the period.

Director Wei wrote down these ideas, and he thought with anticipation, although he can't use them now, maybe he can use them in the future?

Before the first step of "Love Apartment" was filmed, he was already imagining the future of the second part.

In addition, after hanging up the phone, Xu Jin had some different ideas.

He didn't agree with what Director Wei said about relying on luck to see if he could win the summer file, luck was too illusory, and he was still more inclined to believe in his own operation.

Director Wei told him that he didn't have connections to operate, and Xu Jin originally felt that he didn't, but at this time, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he thought of a director.

Xu Jin felt that this director should be able to give him some help.

On the road of filming films, Xu Jin has actually accepted the favor of many directors' predecessors.

Because he is an actor, he can move around a lot in the crew, and when he was not the main actor before, he had a lot of time to spend in the crew and quietly observe what kind of shooting techniques the director is.

Sometimes he feels that the director is kind, so he simply comes to the camera and watches it with the director.

Some directors were very kind, and when they saw him coming over to watch, they also taught him some shooting skills by the way, and asked him if he was interested.

Of course, Xu Jin is interested in directing films, otherwise it would be impossible to come over and steal the teacher.

One has the heart to learn, the other has the heart to teach, especially after Xu Jin became famous, the director also sold him more or less a face, and told him about his experience.

So this also led to the fact that during the filming of the crew, he had a very good relationship with those directors, and there are still many directors' contact information on his QQ account.

Thinking of these directors, Xu Jin's mind immediately came alive.

He is an actor, and he doesn't care about the film after filming, so he has no resources in this area, and he is not familiar with the development, publicity, coordination, release and other processes of the film.

But if he can't do it, it doesn't mean that other directors can't!

Those directors are all experienced in many battles, have several films, and have worked with him, and the relationship is not bad, can he ask them to try?

Xu Jin does not exclude seeking help, Huaxia is a personal society, you help me and I help you in order to have contacts.

I don't want to trouble others, I want to solve everything by myself, and in the end I live myself as an island.

When he first signed with Tang Ren a few years ago, perhaps he would be very stubborn and firmly believe that he would not rely on others for the things he could solve.

But after several years of experience in the entertainment industry, Xu Jin's thoughts are completely different from the original.

With his current reputation in the circle, if he doesn't make good use of it, it will be a huge waste of resources!

Thinking like this, Xu Jin found out the director's friend in his address book and called him.

"Hey, Director Luo, I'm Xu Jin, have you been preparing a film recently? I have a question for you, when are we free to meet? ”

……

Two days later, in a private room in a tea room.

Xu Jin arrived at the box an hour early and asked the staff to make him a pot of tea first.

Taking advantage of the gap between waiting for others, he took out a book about the director's shooting skills and read it.

When he can be alone, he will enter the system space to study shooting skills, and in the real society outside, he will pick up a book and read it whenever he is free.

It is also a recent two-pronged approach, which has made him discover that the knowledge in the system and the knowledge in the outside world can complement each other, rather than coincide.

In the system, he received a lot of practical training, but he had less theoretical knowledge, but in real life, there were more books on theoretical knowledge.

The combination of the two broadened his horizons.

In addition to domestic shooting skills, he also went to see foreign shooting skills to learn from each other's strengths.

Especially the major films that have recently won awards at the film festival, whether it is the idea of the script or the expression of shooting skills, they all have a unique charm, which is very worthy of learning from him as a novice.

When Luo Dao arrived at the box, the first thing that caught his eye was a beautiful man who was as warm as jade, sitting by the window with a book in his hand and reading carefully.

The sunlight outside the window is sprinkled, and the upper body is covered with layers of gold, revealing a quiet and distant temperament.

Xu Jin's calm and scholarly temperament is like a gentle and jade-like son-in-law in ancient times, which made Director Luo couldn't help but be amazed.

He shoots modern dramas, but that doesn't prevent him from appreciating costume dramas as well.

Xu Jin's temperament is very suitable for filming costume dramas, especially the type of scholar who plays Pianpian.

He thought to himself, no wonder Xu Jin's costume drama is so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is indeed very ancient in terms of temperament.

However, this does not mean that Xu Jin can't make modern dramas, on the contrary, his modern roles are very good, which is related to his face shape.

His face is handsome and angular and tough, not extreme and exquisite. Such a face shape has a lot of room for plasticity, whether it is a decent or villainous role.

However, the most important thing is to see how the actor handles that role, and Director Luo didn't think that Xu Jin would be able to shoot a modern drama well, because he started in costume dramas, and he has gained a wave of popularity in costume dramas, and the costume image is also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

But then he saw Xu Jin's performance in "Zhengrong" and "Soldier Assault", and overturned his idea.

It is one thing for an actor to have his own temperament, but it is another thing for an actor to deal with the role, design the relevant character actions, and have different expressions.

As long as you put your mind to it, you can dilute the sense of limitation brought by temperament.

At least in the modern dramas he has seen Xu Jin play, he never thinks that Xu Jin, an actor, does not act like a modern person, but feels very real and plays the characters alive.

This kind of acting skill is relatively rare among the new generation of actors, and Xu Jin is one of them, so the industry's evaluation of Xu Jin's acting skills is generally relatively high.

Xu Jin is not only a star, but also an actor!

Xu Jin read very seriously, and Director Luo deliberately made some movement before he noticed that someone was coming.

Director Luo asked with a narrow face: "It is difficult for Xu Daxing to meet you in ordinary times, why do you have time to find me today?" ”

Xu Jin smiled: "Director Luo, don't make fun of me, how can I be so difficult to date, you haven't made an appointment with me, how do you know that I am difficult to date?" ”

Director Luo smiled and said, "Do you still need to make an appointment?" You don't need to make an appointment to know that you are difficult to make an appointment, let's see which film and television drama you acted in is either a big hit or has a good reputation?

Now no one in the circle wants to ask you to film, just because of your reputation, as long as you are willing to join a drama, that drama is already extremely optimistic about it in the industry. ”

Although Xu Jin felt that what Director Luo said was very right, it was impossible for him to admit that he was very good in public, and he still had to be humble and low-key.

He said modestly: "Director Luo, those are all said and played by peers, don't take it seriously."

An excellent film and television drama not only relies on actors, but also relies on excellent scripts and other staff, everyone is excellent to be able to create good film and television dramas, how can I do it alone? ”

"It's such a reason, but compared to other staff, everyone will focus more on the actors." Luo Daodao.

Xu Jin sighed heavily, touched his chin with his hand, and a sadness rose on his face: "So I am also under a lot of pressure, and you are all going to deify me."

I really don't have such an amazing or great ability! ”

Seeing him like this, Director Luo couldn't help but laugh and shook his head: "Okay, don't be cheap and behave, on the surface, the pressure is high, who doesn't know that you are secretly happy in your heart!"

It's not good to have such a reputation, you are equivalent to a golden signboard. Even if it's just a metaphysical golden signboard, but just for the sake of such a glimmer of possibility, you kid will inevitably be favored by the big crew in the future! ”

Jiang is really still old and spicy, and Director Luo can see at a glance which direction Xu Jin will develop in the future.

He changed his words and asked: "It's impossible for you to talk to me about the film when you come to me today, don't say it, I just have a script on hand, I think it's okay, if you're interested, I'll send it to you to take a look?" ”

Xu Jin agreed: "Okay, if you can make Mr. Luo like the script, presumably the script must be very good, I will definitely take a good look at it." ”

The two chatted for a while, and Xu Jin entered the topic and asked him if he had a channel to operate the release time of film and television.

Director Luo asked suspiciously, "Why are you inquiring about this?" ”

Xu Jin thought about it and didn't hide it, anyway, after he invested in the film and television drama and released it, the industry knew that he had a stake in the drama, after all, he planned to focus on publicity.

"I invested in a film and television drama and wanted to win it until next year's summer season, but I don't have the resources for this, so I ask if you have any channels that you can introduce." Xu Jin said neatly.

Director Luo's brows stretched: "It turned out to be this, I thought there was your film and television drama to be released, and I wanted to impact the summer file!" ”

He also filmed a new drama this year, which was filmed at the beginning of the year, and he also plans to impact next year's summer file.

If Xu Jin also has a new drama, the two film and television dramas meet in a narrow way, and they must fight to the death to win, which is not what Director Luo wants to see.

And if that's the case, he'll be a little hesitant to tell him something about the industry, after all, they're competitors in a way.

Xu Jin's reputation is too powerful, and the film and television dramas starring him are very popular both in supporting roles and protagonists, and such an influence cannot be underestimated.

As long as Xu Jin's film and television dramas are released, I believe that no director will ignore it.

But if it is replaced by a film invested by Xu Jin and wants to be released in the summer, it is much easier to say.

Director Luo glanced at Xu Jin a few times: "I didn't think that you kid was hidden, how could you be interested in playing in the investment world?" ”

Xu Jin said with a smile: "I am an artist, and I usually have the most contact with the entertainment industry.

Now I'm still young and can take on a lot of plays, but when I'm older in the future, I can't challenge any role, and my development path will be limited, so I want to make some money from other places.

You said to invest in something else, I'm not familiar with it, and in the end, I think about it and return to my old business.

Everyone says that I have a poisonous eye for picking scripts, and although I don't think much of it myself, I want to try it too. ”

When he was modest, he unconsciously skinned himself.

Now Xu Jin can already say his "great achievements" without blushing.

Director Luo nodded, "It's good that you have this idea, I have been a director for so many years, and I have seen many actors rise and fall in the entertainment industry."

Some people are very popular, but they are as brilliant as fireworks, and after burning, they become nothing, and they are destitute in their later years, and sometimes they have to rely on other friends to help.

There are also actors who can't get ahead no matter how hard they work when they are young, but they encounter opportunities in middle age and soar.

The human condition is wonderful, and you never know what the future holds, and what the future holds. ”

Although Director Luo affirmed his idea of wanting to invest, he also cautiously advised him:

"The film and television industry is a bit deep, and the intrigue in the secret is no better than your actors doing their own tricks in order to grab resources.

I think you're still young and you still have a lot of time to enrich yourself, maybe you can invest in something else. This line of work is really not easy to mix, there is no connection, you even have problems with the production and distribution of film and television dramas. ”

Xu Jin replied very seriously: "Thank you Director Luo, I will think about it." ”

Director Luo smiled, "It's a bit off topic when you talk about it, you want you to invest money to release it in next year's summer file, right?" ”

He took a sip of tea and said leisurely, "The water here is said to be deep, but in fact, it's just the same thing, you need to get two things done.

The first thing is that before the summer season comes, all the films you invest in must be reviewed, proofread well, and get distribution permits.

The second thing looks a little difficult, you have to connect with the TV station, if you have a long-term cooperation with the TV station, then the summer file is very easy to say.

If your film can get a distribution license, it will be a chance to be released to the outside world, then it depends on how the TV station views your show.

If the TV station is optimistic about your drama and thinks it is excellent, they will arrange a summer file for you. ”

Xu Jin suddenly realized, "So the key to this still has to fall on the TV station!" ”
