Chapter 598: The Great Director Wants to Lock Julia with a Contract

At lunchtime, he woke up Ye Tian and asked with a smile, "My arrangement is right, right?" As long as you're here, Julia's performance is remarkable. There was a five-minute long shot just now, and I saw one and passed. I can't wait to call and thank Jin Li for cultivating such a good student. ”

Ye Tian didn't explain, it's not that the school is well-trained, but that Julia is sensible and knows how to be motivated. After more than a year of working and studying day and night, I have the glorious achievement I have now.

The five-minute long shot is a great test of the director's scheduling ability. Fortunately, most of them were Julia's one-man shows, and several group performances only showed up at the beginning.

Her own acting skills have been fully utilized, her eyes and expressions are quite in place, and her compassion for the children in the mountains comes from the bottom of her heart.

When the third camera captured her eyes, Ye Tian was very moved when he looked at the picture.

Julia had had a bad time, but now, she had succeeded. The kind of perseverance and composure in her eyes is completely at the level of a female movie star, and her every move is all a play.

The big director sighed: "Since the start of filming, she has shot six long shots, the longest is five minutes, and the shortest is three minutes." This is the characteristic of this film, there is no frequent camera switching, and long shots are used to show the backwardness, decay, tranquility, and sadness of life in mountain villages. Mountain villages remain unchanged, they will always be poor and backward, and there is a long way to go to create a happy home. ”

After filming in the afternoon, when she finished work, Julia ran to greet Ye Tian.

"Senior, I see that you have been sleeping today, are you uncomfortable?"

Ye Tian shook his head: "Yesterday we discussed some things and stayed up all night." ”

He didn't hide it, and directly told Julia that Xia Meng was contacting the matter of going abroad and going on public assignment for further study.

When the big director heard it next to him, he immediately shouted: "What is there to discuss, the government is sent to study abroad, a great opportunity, I can't seize it, what else do you want?" If a writer does not have a global vision, what he writes is a leopard in a tube, and a blind man touches an elephant. Only by standing from an international perspective can we see clearly what is happening in China. If you don't engage in art in Paris, you can't write literature in England, and you can't reach a new level at all. You tell her, this is what I said, I have to go abroad, and I have to snatch this opportunity to break the head. ”

It seems that except for Xia Wenming and Xia Meng, everyone else supports the plan to go abroad.

Julia, in particular, became more and more envious of Xia Meng.

"With such an opportunity to go abroad, the future development is infinitely broad. Senior, it seems that Xia Meng has monopolized all the good in the world, I really don't know how much practice he did in his previous life, this life is simply what he wants. ”

Ye Tian didn't answer, he knew what Julia meant.

The filming of this film went unusually smoothly, thanks to the dedication of the great director and Julia's comprehension.

In order to improve the taste of the film, the director used ultra-long long shots continuously, and on the fifth day, he even used a ten-minute long shot shooting.

The female college student searches for the lost children in the mountains, and the scene feels depressing, with one of the cameras taking a handheld shot, following Julia's footsteps, the camera shaking, showing a panicked mood.

It can only be said that the level of the great director is high, and the things he shoots are refreshing. I am afraid that these ten minutes will set a new record in this year's film and television industry.

On the day of the shooting, he cut a set of flowers and sent them to Spain. A friend from Spain called back directly and told him that this film seems to have been booked for the gold medal in the international unit of the Spanish Film Festival, congratulations to you, and congratulations to the female number one.

Such good news is only shared by the big director and Ye Tian, the two of them, and they don't want to tell anyone and affect Julia's emotions.

"Ye Tian, for so many years, I have been looking for a good screenwriter, a good producer, and a good actor. Now that the time, place, and people are all available, and you, the hero behind the scenes, have been coordinating and connecting, this matter has been done. In the future, I will promote Julia to various film festivals around the world, so that she can win awards and create an international impact. Now I have to make one thing clear to you, our Heavenly Co., Ltd. must sign a long-term contract with Julia to tie up the actors. To avoid the future when the actor is on fire, the wings are stiff and fly away immediately, and we will have nothing. ”

The requirements of big directors are not excessive, this is the usual practice in the industry. Otherwise, a company or a crew cultivates a superstar, and in the end, the chickens and eggs will be beaten, and there will be nothing left for them.

The content of the contract is also relatively fixed, that is, the actor changes jobs, and in the end he must pay a high amount of liquidated damages, at least hundreds of millions of yuan.

"You're right, but I can't do that." Ye Tian immediately objected.

The big director was stunned: "This is the rule of the trade, and we didn't do it ourselves." Otherwise, after a few film festivals, she won the gold medal and was poached by those big film and television companies, and we would have nothing. Such a good actor is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I didn't tell her the good news a few days ago, just because I was afraid that she would suddenly fly away. ”

Ye Tian came from the School of Communication, and of course understands the importance of contracts.

However, he didn't want to be restrained by this, Julia's wings flying high. He is willing to let Julia travel lightly without any pressure, even if he changes jobs to a broader stage in the future, it is also something that Julia should enjoy.

When he continued to object, the big director became popular.

"Ye Tian, no matter how we cooperate, we have to abide by the rules of the industry. Let me tell you, I've cooperated with other actors in the past few years, I've seen too many things like this, some traffic flowers, two films down, the value has increased tenfold, if you want to use her, you have to pay ten times the premium, and you can't afford the salary. You don't need him, people go to other crews in a grand manner, and they say in a beautiful name, take care of your wallet, don't let you break the bank, and at that time, you can't cry. ”

What Ye Tian values most now is Julia's emotions, as long as she doesn't destroy her emotions, she can say anything. At the very least, you can't mention the contract until the film is finished.

The big director was very puzzled by Ye Tian's actions: "Ye Tian, what do you think of this Julia?" She's not your girlfriend, she's just your junior, is it interesting to take care of her like this? Aren't you afraid that Xia Meng will be jealous? ”

Ye Tian has long thought about it, he hopes that he is a springboard for Julia to reach the peak of her ideals, and bloom like those female movie stars in China.

As long as he can provide Julia, he will spare no effort to dedicate it, which is probably the fate between people, and has nothing to do with love.

"I've decided, number one, that we're not going to talk about contracts now. Second, when Julia becomes famous and wants to change jobs, that is her freedom, and no one can restrict it. Thirdly, we will only discuss this issue once and never bring it up again. ”

The big director was very helpless about Ye Tian's decision. After all, now only Ye Tian can decide Julia's emotions, once there is a problem on Ye Tian's side, I am afraid that Julia's acting skills will be greatly reduced, which will cause fatal damage to this movie.

The conversation between the two people broke up unhappily, but it did not affect the relationship between the two people.

The big director accepted Tianmeng Film and Television Company, and naturally had to take precautions for the company's future development.

Ye Tian understands this, he just doesn't want Julia to have any mental burden, so it will become a pure commercial interest, which will be harmful to anyone's development.

It is precisely because Julia is so good that the great director can give full play to his directorial talents over the years.

In addition to the long shots, he also tried a completely dark shot, without any lighting on the scene, relying only on Julia's voice to guide the plot.

This new shooting method has only appeared in some niche films abroad. The great director is so attentive, which proves that this time the Spanish Film Festival, the gold medal will inevitably be in the bag.

The shooting was super fast, and it only took 11 days to complete the location shoot and move on to the internal editing.

The big director asked Xia Meng to dub the narration before, and this was also perfectly implemented.

Xia Meng took a week off, entered the dubbing studio of the School of Communication, and started from scratch to record the voiceover for this film.

Those lines, after being modified like the finishing touches of a big director, immediately became philosophical, and even Xia Meng nodded in admiration.

After a busy day, Ye Tian and Xia Meng were alone together and continued to discuss the matter of studying abroad.

The form was handed in, and among the eleven judges, at least nine supported Xia Meng. In other words, among the five candidates, Xia Meng is at the top, far ahead, and is likely to get this place.

"Ye Tian, I now know that what you said is right, a Chinese writer, if he has been in the land of China all his life and does not go outside to study and pioneer, he can only be a Chinese writer. The reason why Qian Zhongshu was able to write about the siege was because he had an international vision. The same is true of Xu Zhimo's masterpieces and Lu Xun's prose. Only by jumping out of the country and watching the world can we truly have a great soul. ”

Xia Meng said not completely, after all, there were too many Chinese literati during the May Fourth period, and they went abroad to accept the influence of European and American literature.

China has always been an open country, and it has been able to bring in those wonderful things from the outside, not only with colorful foreign products, but also with profound ideological knowledge and philosophical awareness.

"Xia Meng, take this step, maybe in the future, I believe you have the talent to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. When a great director sees your work, he is deeply moved, which proves that your starting point is very high, don't go in the wrong direction, that's right. ”

In the past few days, Xia Meng, Sun Mei and Xia Wenming have a four- or five-hour discussion every night after eating, that is, a heated debate.

Everyone showed their opinions, and in the end, Sun Mei prevailed.

She stands in the position of vice president of the central hospital and has been exposed to too many examples of success and failure, so her point of view is completely defensible.

There are only one or two steps at the most critical time in life, if you can catch it, you can soar, if you can't catch it, Nanke will have a dream.

This is a very democratic and very wise family, so Xia Meng's future is a golden avenue. Parents are the stepping stones of children, and the higher the height of the parents, the higher the children will fly.

"Ye Tian, I am very fortunate to have such a pair of parents, they have given me too much, and I am willing to be filial to them and repay them all my life."

The team of the great director worked extremely efficiently, and after only one week, the entire film was edited and then approved by the superiors. Delivered directly to the Spanish Film Festival.

This time, five films were sent in China, although the other four were also made by famous artists, but the choice of themes was much worse, and there was no sense of humanity at all.

Friends in Spain reported that the film "Happy Home" will definitely win the award.

Ye Tian and the big director formed a tacit understanding, and no one told Julia about the future scenes of this film.

So after filming, Julia returned to the School of Communication, still insisting on the rhythm of learning and training every day, and at the same time reading new scripts and preparing for new shooting.
