Wangjing Hotel.
The conference room specially chartered by the crew "Mr. Good" was converted into the main creator's office.
Everyone is setting up the script, styling, and characters...... and other details, racking his brains to make suggestions, at this moment, a man in a suit and leather collar and wearing gold wire glasses walked in, and behind him, he was also followed by several men in suits.
"Mr. Li?"
Seeing a group of people coming, a man who seemed to be the head of the main creator's office was slightly startled, stood up first, and hurriedly walked to the man with glasses, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, do you have any instructions?" ”
The man's name is Liu Ke, who is the producer of "Mr. Good", and Mr. Li is the main investor of "Mr. Good".
For the arrival of Mr. Li, of course, Liu Ke greeted him with a smile.
Mr. Li nodded lightly, and then said straight to the point: "Well, I came today, mainly to talk about investment with the crew again!" ”
"Huh? This...? ”
When Liu Ke heard this, his face was a little ugly, didn't he say everything about investment? Does Mr. Li always want to regret it?
Mr. Li didn't care about Liu Ke's reaction, and took a few people to sit down one after another.
Subsequently, Mr. Li began to introduce to everyone.
A moment later.
Only then did Liu Ke know that today's protagonist was not Mr. Li, but the man named Yan Feng brought by Mr. Li, who came here to invest in "Mr. Good", and the amount was not small, at least more than 100 million.
Over 100 million investment!
Liu Ke was shocked, and was suddenly overjoyed, so excited that he almost didn't cheer on the spot.
"Producer Liu, we have a requirement for investment!"
Yan Feng said with a smile.
"No problem!"
Liu Ke didn't think about it, didn't ask, just nodded and agreed, and said: "As soon as Mr. Yan made a move, it was an investment of more than 100 million, and some requirements are also very normal!" Rest assured, no matter what the requirement, we will do our best! ”
"Producer Liu is really refreshing!"
Yan Feng smiled and then said: "Since this is the case, then I have something to say directly, my request is very simple, that is, ......!" ”
……
Wangjing.
Inside a state-of-the-art sound stage.
Director Zhao Yichao was leading the crew to shoot today's scene nervously, when suddenly, a phone call came.
"Producer Liu?"
Seeing the caller number, Director Zhao Yichao was slightly stunned, and then ordered the assistant director next to him: "Xiao Zhang, I'll answer the phone, you are responsible for helping me keep an eye on it!" ”
"Good!"
When the assistant director heard this, he said that there was no problem, and then began to be in charge of staring at the monitor.
Director Zhao Yichao walked out of the studio.
"Hey, Producer Liu..."
"Director Zhao, there is something, I have to tell you!" The other party's tone was heavy.
"What's the matter?"
Director Zhao Yichao suddenly had a bad premonition.
Although he has not seen Producer Liu himself now, with his understanding of Producer Liu, and the tone of the other party's speech now, Director Zhao Yichao can tell that the other party must have encountered some problems, otherwise with Producer Liu's ability, he would not use this tone to call him.
"Here's the thing......"
Liu Ke told Director Zhao Yichao about Yan Feng's investment on the phone.
"Investment? At least more than 100 million? ”
After hearing Liu Ke's words, director Zhao Yichao was also taken aback, before the preparation for the start of filming of general film and television dramas, investors or something have already been decided, although some people will be optimistic about the prospects of film and television dramas and continue to invest in the later stage, but they will not be too big, like the other party, it is an investment of more than 100 million yuan, which is really the first case in the industry!
It stands to reason that it should be a good thing to have such a large investment, but listening to the tone of Producer Liu, it seems that this is not the case, so there is only one possibility.
The other party has special requirements!
seems to be a similar thing, Zhao Yichao has not never seen it, after all, people have made a lot of money, and some requirements are completely reasonable. For the smooth preparation of the crew, under normal circumstances, the producer will agree to the requirements of the investor, even if it involves the script, characters, and actors, they have to swallow their anger and make concessions.
This is the rule of the domestic film and television industry.
Producer Liu, like director Zhao Yichao, is also a well-known gold medal producer in China, and it can make Producer Liu feel embarrassed, which shows that this sudden investor is not an easy person.
In general, for the same things, Producer Liu can take ideas and solve them independently, without having to discuss with others at all.
But now.
Producer Liu's call went to director Zhao Yichao, and the problem was more serious.
Director Zhao Yichao frowned and said, "Producer Liu, let's talk about it, does the other party want to change the script, or plug the actors?" As long as it's not too much, for the sake of the crew, I can make some concessions! ”
The success of a play has a great relationship with the director's ability and casting.
may be a good script, just because the characters chosen do not match, and the drama that could have been a hit will be reduced to garbage; A small production may also become a box office dark horse because of an extremely brilliant script. Therefore, for the selection and revision of actors and scripts, under normal circumstances, neither the investor nor the producer will force the director.
Director Zhao Yichao understands very well that since Producer Liu has called himself, it is obvious that the situation is beyond the ordinary range, and the investor wants to move the script, or stuff the actors, and only in these two cases, the producer will have to discuss with himself, after all, he is the director and core of this play, and without his own consent, this drama will definitely not be filmed!
Theoretically, director Zhao Yichao doesn't want others to dictate his work, but the reality is cruel, if he doesn't adapt to certain rules, he can't start his work smoothly at all.
Therefore, as long as the other party does not touch his bottom line, director Zhao Yichao can only grit his teeth and endure it.
"It's worse than that!" The other party sighed.
"What?"
Director Zhao Yichao was a little stunned, it was more serious than changing the script and stuffing the actors? Busy asked, "What's going on?" ”
The other end of the phone was slightly silent for a moment, and then replied: "Director Zhao, the other party has only one request, replace the male number one Bai Xiaofei, and don't care about the rest!" And...... The main creative team has voted on it, and the result...."
"It can't be!"
You don't have to listen to the rest of the words, as long as you have a normal brain, you won't let go of an investment of more than 100 million yuan, and try to protect a rookie actor who is nothing.
Therefore, as soon as he heard that Producer Liu said that the other party was going to replace Bai Xiaofei, Director Zhao Yichao was anxious at that time.
"Director Zhao, I understand your difficulties, but... You'll have to think about it, too! When Producer Liu on the other side of the phone saw Director Zhao Yichao angry, he was silent for a while, and then began to play the emotional card, persuading Zhao Yichao to give up Bai Xiaofei and think about the overall situation.
“……”
Zhao Yichao was silent.
didn't reply to Producer Liu for a long time, and just when Producer Liu couldn't help but want to say something more, he suddenly said: "Wait for me to go back!" ”
After speaking, he hung up the phone directly.
Director Zhao Yichao returned to the monitor angrily.
"Director Zhao!"
"The one just now, I feel good, let it go!"
"I'll ask the photographer to play the footage back for you, and if you're not satisfied, we'll retake it again!"
The assistant director quickly got out of the director's seat opposite the monitor, and then began to report work, but he never expected that Director Zhao Yichao did not sit down and continue to direct, but grabbed the loudspeaker on the table, and directly roared: "Call it a day!" ”
"Huh?"
"Call it a day?"
"What's going on?!"
"I've only filmed two scenes, why do you have to call it a day all of a sudden?"
“……”
The entire crew scene, up and down, whether it was the senior leaders, the on-site actors, or the low-level field workers, with the roar of director Zhao Yichao, they were all stunned in an instant.
The on-site producer hurriedly ran over and asked what was going on?
"Director Zhao, this...?"
"I'm upset, I don't want to shoot anymore!"
Faced with the inquiry of the on-site producer, director Zhao Yichao casually found a reason. After speaking, he turned around and left, and said angrily in his heart: "The special male number one has been changed for Lao Tzu, and he still shoots a fart!" ”
"Huh?"
The on-site producer was stunned at the time.
Seeing the anger on the director's face, it didn't look like he was joking at all, so he was so frightened that he hurriedly called the production team.
The call ended quickly.
Everyone's eyes were all focused on the on-site producer, just waiting for him to speak, only he, the second-in-command of the scene, nodded in agreement, and everyone dared to leave.
Seeing that the on-site producer nodded bitterly, he said weakly:
"Call it a day!"
