Chapter Seventy-Six: The Director's First Experience

Towards the end of July, all the songs on the album were completely recorded, and Gu Bei's first experience as a music producer was much easier than expected, which may be due to Sun Yanzi's singing skills that she has cultivated since she was a child.

The only thing that is a little troublesome is the pronunciation of Chinese lyrics, Sun Yanzi is not good at Mandarin, there is an occasional accent when singing, in this regard, the entire recording team has not worked hard, Sun Yanzi herself is almost driven crazy by a few of these words, because of this, the album was recorded for nearly a month before it was recorded.

"The Mark of the Rain" was also added to the new album, because Sun Yanzi liked it very much, and repeatedly asked Gu Bei to grant the copyright, Gu Bei didn't want to suddenly add a piano song to a pop music album, but he still couldn't grind a girl to be coquettish in front of him, let alone his idol.

However, it is no longer Gu Beilai to play in the album.

As soon as the recording of the song ended, Gu Bei began to prepare for the shooting of the MV, Warner Records only gave Gu Bei the permission to shoot one MV, and Gu Bei chose a song "I'm Not Sad" with a relatively complete story framework.

Gu Bei wrote a small script by himself, with the shadow of the memory of the HC old demon, and more of Gu Bei's most real thoughts when he listened to this song, the heroine is naturally Sun Yanzi, and the male protagonist is a young actor from Baodao, Fan Zhiwei.

Fan Zhiwei has been very popular in recent years, and his acting has received a lot of praise, and he is in the same brokerage company as Zhang Manyu and Liang Chaowei, so a small number of media still say that Fan Zhiwei is Liang Chaowei's successor, and I don't know if it is the news that the brokerage company behind it bought.

is about to work together, Gu Bei specially checked the information about Fan Zhiwei from celebrity gossip and entertainment weekly, and read a lot of news newspapers on Baodao.

Fan Zhiwei's news was scattered, but he saw a news that made Gu Bei feel the same way.

Cai Yilin, who has not yet become famous, like Gu Bei, tried to terminate the contract with the brokerage company Loud Studio this summer because she was dissatisfied with the company's arrangement, but the result was obvious, Cai Yilin was hidden.

Gu Bei can also be a music producer and MV director behind the scenes, but Cai Yilin has completely disappeared.

At the beginning of August, the MV of "I'm Not Sad" officially started shooting, and Gu Bei was ready to use a film narrative technique to shoot this MV, but in the time of a song, the entire context was turned into dozens of lens fragments.

In order to achieve the best shooting effect, Gu Beixuan shot the MV under the soft light of the early morning and the afterglow of the evening dusk.

Early in the morning, when the sky was not white, Gu Bei got up and began to prepare, and when he arrived at the location selection, the sky was just hazy white, and the staff of Warner Records were busy preparing for the work, which was a small crew of only about a dozen people.

The staff saw that Gu Bei had arrived early, and at the same time, they were a little surprised, and at the same time, they also greeted Gu Bei, this was the first time that someone had called Gu Bei "director" or "Gu Dao".

After saying hello, Gu Bei was not idle, and the place where he could take a handle was not ambiguous, he played with his sleeves and started to do it, and ten minutes later, Sun Yanzi and the rest of the team also arrived, except for the actor of the MV.

Without a male lead, there was no way to start filming when everything was ready, and a bunch of people had to sit together in twos and threes to chat and fart.

"Abei."

"Huh?" Gu Bei turned his head to look at Sun Yanzi and said curiously, "What's wrong?" ”

"I have a question, why don't you play the leading role yourself? I think that as long as you mention it, the company will definitely agree, and it will not affect the work because someone is late. ”

It's not that he doesn't want to act, but he can't act, Chen Zeshan also proposed to let Gu Bei play the MV actor of all the songs before, which is both suitable and topical, Gu Bei has no choice in this matter.

didn't think to explain, Gu Bei said indifferently: "Normally, the actor in the MV is actually not challenging, compared to the MV actor, I am more like a director at the moment, this is my first time directing." ”

As soon as Gu Bei's voice fell, Sun Yanzi immediately replied excitedly: "I know, acting and excellent are directing!" ”

Looking at Sun Yanzi, whose face was full of pride and seemed to be asking for credit, Gu Bei smiled and nodded: "Yes, acting and directing well, maybe, you will soon see me become a big director in China." ”

"That's great, remember to come to me to act then, I want to play your sister, well, I'm going to have a concert soon, do you want to come over and be my guest singer?"

"Helping the guests? How do you say it in English? ”

β€œSing guest。”

"Sing guest, well, after filming this MV, I have to go back to the mainland, and in a few weeks, I will go back to school, and I may not be your Sing guest this time."

Gu Bei wants to be strong, and he also wants to save face, he can't say that he was hidden in front of him, after a long time, the media will find clues, and when the time comes, he will naturally know what he should know.

Sun Yanzi was about to say something, but the sound of the engine was interrupted, it was Fan Zhiwei and his own team coming, a driver, an assistant.

The first time he was late, Gu Bei didn't care too much, he asked to shoot the hazy soft light in the morning, he had to get up early, and it was in summer, and the sky was bright early every morning, so he had to start shooting at 3 or 4 o'clock.

It's a bit against the normal life and rest, so Gu Bei didn't prepare to investigate it for the first time, but greeted him.

"Mr. Fan, hello, I am Gu Bei, the MV director of this shooting mission, and I may have to suffer you next."

Fan Zhiwei also greeted him with a smile, spoke very politely, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Gu Bei, I just remembered that I forgot something very important halfway, so I came late." ”

"It's okay, and it's not too late." Gu Bei didn't care that Fan Zhiwei called his name directly, but thought about taking as many shots as possible while the soft light was still in the morning, so he proposed, "Then let's start changing our clothes and makeup now, and start shooting in fifteen minutes." ”

Fan Zhiwei didn't say anything yet, but the male assistant who came over frowned and said, "This gentleman who filmed the MV, don't you know where we came from?" Awei sat in the car for more than 40 minutes, he was very tired, and he got up so early, and his mental state also needed time to adjust, so I suggested that I shoot again after half an hour. ”

After waiting for a few seconds, seeing that the main owner had no intention of speaking, Gu Bei then said to the male assistant: "Hello, my surname is Gu, I also have a few ideas, the current light is very good, and it may not be effective in a while, so please cooperate with Mr. Fan a little." ”

"Didn't we Awe cooperate with you? asked to rush to the filming location at four o'clock, but Awei didn't say a word. ”

"That's not what I meant, it's a matter of light."

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Fan Zhiwei waved his hand to his assistant and said, "Okay, I'll just shoot, I'll go over and put on makeup now." ”

Fan Zhiwei spoke in Baodao local dialect this time, and after the male assistant listened to it, he really didn't talk to Gu Bei anymore, and also replied to Fan Zhiwei in Baodao dialect: "Awei, why do you want to listen to this mainlander, come here, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in the old place." ”

Gu Bei didn't want to entangle, but when he heard the three words of the mainland, the corners of his eyes flickered, and he was just about to say something, when Sun Yanzi, who came over, saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly said, "Ah Bei, come over and help me take a look at this narrator." ”

"Okay, wait a minute." Being interrupted by Sun Yanzi like this, Gu Bei calmed down a lot, and said to the male assistant, "This car is yours, right?" Trouble drive a little over, here the camera has to be framed, tired. ”
