Chapter 314: Noble
"Hello Director Cao, I'm Dong Yi."
Cao Rong, who was busy, was obviously startled when he heard this sudden voice.
But soon, he reacted and quickly pulled Dong Yi to sit down beside him.
"Xiaoyi, you can be counted as here, now the crew is up and down, but they are pointing to you to lead everyone into the state."
Dong Yi was a little stunned when he heard this, let himself take them into the state?
Before he could ask, Cao Rong opened his mouth to explain.
"Xiaoyi, you also know that I am a rookie director, in fact, I am an actor who is not in the stream, originally this TV series, I wanted to fulfill my dream of being a director."
"In order to allow myself to adapt the good story theme of "Journey to the West" again, but what I didn't expect was that this difficulty was too great."
"When I received the news that you came to the crew, I was so excited that I didn't sleep for three days and three nights, and one of the things I did every day was thinking about how to shoot a good script."
"But now I am actually seen as a joke by many people, because if I am an actor, I can actually have a certain audience base."
"But as a director, coupled with changing the theme of the story of "Journey to the West", many people feel that this is a blasphemy, even if your participation does not improve the situation."
After hearing Cao Rong finish speaking, Dong Yi had a hint of enlightenment in his heart.
In fact, it is very normal for Cao Rong to have this worry, because in the eyes of many people, Cao Rong was completely fooling around when he was filming this TV series.
Yes, not only did they change beyond recognition, but most of the actors they were looking for were not graduates of a professional class.
Even the various prop sets are very cheap.
Many people firmly believe that Cao Rong can't make a good TV series.
But after being tested by the audience in his previous life, Dong Yi knew that this was actually Cao Rong thinking too much.
For those who really like "Journey to the West", this TV series is not only an interlude, an opening and ending song, character modeling, and so on.
These many details are perfect and impeccable.
This is something that no one can deny.
Its biggest slot is the repetitive action, which in Dong Yi's view, is a manifestation of no funds.
If you have the funds, then you can not have so many ghost animal movements, and it will be more attractive to watch.
Of course, if there were no such actions, the episodes of the entire TV series would have shrunk significantly.
However, Dong Yi believes that as long as he is there, then this problem can be solved.
"Director Cao, in my opinion, these problems are not a problem, even those mature crews, when facing a new script, they will also be at a loss."
"This is the normal reaction of an actor when he sees the script, there is no need to dwell on this all the time, in fact, what I want to tell Director Cao is that if Director Cao has financial difficulties, you can tell me."
"We at Shengshi Entertainment are very optimistic about the prospects of "Journey to the West", in other words, we can inject capital into this TV series."
After listening to what Dong Yi said, Cao Rong couldn't believe his eyes.
His TV series has not even started filming, but it has already attracted investors from industry insiders?
He secretly pinched himself, huh...... It hurts.
It turns out that I am not dreaming!
This made Cao Rong almost jump up excitedly at this time, you know, in order to make this drama go on smoothly.
He has found a lot of investors from outside the industry, in order to attract investment well.
didn't expect that his noble person was not far away.
"Xiaoyi, aren't you comforting me? Actually, I know my own situation best. ”
"Not only do I not have rich directing experience, but there are actually a lot of flaws in the plot, and even the props, I don't have the ability to do the best."
"To be honest, even if it was today's opening ceremony, I was very nervous, and I was afraid that if I made a mistake, the whole crew would collapse."
Looking at Cao Rong's cautious appearance, Dong Yi couldn't help but be a little funny.
But this is understandable, after all, Cao Rong is just a newcomer who has just entered the directing industry.
In the face of the problem of a huge crew, it is appropriate to lack skills.
And what I have to do is not only to let him find self-confidence, but also to improve some of the current shortcomings.
"Director Cao, I studied this script repeatedly yesterday, and I think it is even more amazing than what I have seen before, that is, if it can be filmed well."
"Then it is not impossible for it to become the latest hit TV series in China, of course, the premise is that our supporting facilities are not the best to use, but at least they must be above the horizontal line."
"If even the audience has some eyes, it is a very big loss for such an excellent script as ours, I hope that Director Cao can be the first person to think of when the crew encounters difficulties, and I am the first person to think of."
After Dong Yi finished speaking, Cao Rong was extremely excited.
He never expected that Dong Yi, as a hot actor now, would be very polite to a director like himself.
He felt the respect he had not seen for a long time, and he held Dong Yi's hand tightly, shaking it constantly.
"Xiaoyi, don't worry, I will definitely do what you say, and if you have any comments in the future, you can talk to me directly."
"After all, it's hard for me to take care of the big picture alone, and I'm very glad that I was able to send you an invitation at the beginning of the shoot, and now, my confidence has come back for the most part."
Seeing that his words made Cao Rong less worried, Dong Yi felt a little funny.
But in this regard, he can also understand that Cao Rong lacks confidence?
No, if he didn't have confidence, he wouldn't have played the Monkey King, let alone the director of this TV series.
What he lacks is a sense of hesitation for innovation.
If someone can stand firmly behind him at this time, the ability he can exert is actually very huge.
That's why, for a person, faith is a manifestation of spirit.
Of course, it's good to have faith, but not to have that kind of clarity about yourself.
Then it will become conceited, and in that case, it is a very fatal shortcoming for any artist.
"Okay, Director Cao, don't worry, as long as I can see it, I will definitely tell you, and I won't let you carry everything alone."
Seeing Dong Yi's promise, Cao Rong finally let go of most of his heart.
He had also thought about why he was able to invite an actor like Dong Yi in his crew.
Now, when he saw Dong Yi, he already had an answer in his heart.
That is, the two of them have an extraordinary dedication to innovation, which is probably the so-called sympathy, right?
"Great! With your words, I'm full of energy now! Xiaoyi, you hurry up and put on makeup, let the big guys take a look. ”
"Heavenless Buddha, what is it like!"
Although there was no lawless scene in the early days, Dong Yi knew that Cao Rong did this just to let him come to the town.
Not every scene can have actors come to the town, so there is no town on the set.
It will seem very small, and the slightest wind and grass will make this set disappear from the filming place.
This is also why, no matter how bad a drama is, it is necessary to find a well-known actor.
Except, of course, for those who pat it casually.
When Dong Yi was putting on makeup, a crisp female voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"Hello, excuse me...... Are you Brother Yi? ”
