Chapter Ninety-Nine: Love That Doesn't Speak
As soon as the three of them walked a few steps, Xu Song suddenly asked Ning Gang: "There are so many crews in the film and television city, is there no one looking for Xiao Taotao to film, so that the salary can be justified." ”
Ning Gang shook his head: "Yes, but there are few extras with children's roles, so there are few opportunities to act." And there are a few lines, who in the crew doesn't want their children to show their faces? If the role is heavier, find a professional young actor, or exchange resources, isn't that fragrant? ”
Xu Song groaned slightly, thinking of the "Little Nezha" on the earth, and an idea came to mind: "Either I'll find Xiao Taotao to film, anyway, I have to practice making micro-movies." ”
"That's fine, as long as you can write a script with children." Ning Gang nodded.
Most Chinese, when they think of Little Nezha, may have their first impression of "Life Events", but what Xu Song remembers is "Love Without Talking". He also accidentally saw this 23-minute micro-film before, and was shocked by Xiao Nezha's "Let go of my father", so he paid attention to her other works.
Then shoot "Love Without Talking" first, and the role of "Sister Hong" in it can also be played by Tian Xin.
So he told Lei Dong and Ning Gang about this idea.
Before Ning Gang could react to who Tian Xin was, Lei Dong shouted: "The micro-movie is just something you use to practice, isn't it too extravagant for you to invite a singer?" Although it was once. ”
Ning Gang remembered who Tian Xin was, and then said with a smile: "Xiao Lei, what are you excited about, with Director Xu's current status in the music world, not to mention inviting a singer who has retired for 20 years, it is also very easy to invite the current singer to make a cameo." ”
Belch......
Thunderbolt scratched his head
, it makes sense: Zhang Yilin of "Ghost", isn't this first-line star invited by a song?
"Is the process of making a micro-film the same as making "Ghost"?" Xu Song of Tianqiu is a novice in many aspects of the entertainment industry.
Ning Gang nodded: "Yes, even if it is a micro-film, as long as you show it to the public, you must first report to the company's film and television department." The company first looks at the script, decides whether to set up the project, whether to invest or not, and then goes to the entertainment association to get the approval number before it can be filmed. ”
Xu Song nodded, and asked again: "Then if the company is not optimistic about the script, can I invest in it myself?" ”
"Of course, the company will only mention a part of the service fee at that time." Ning Gang replied.
Xu Song understood, and then said with a smile: "I will be in charge of this micro-film alone, and Director Ning Ke will guide me next to me at that time." ”
Ning Gang nodded: "No problem." ”
Then he smiled: "In fact, relatively speaking, director is the easiest position on the entire set." What story do you need to tell, and the actor will play it; What color you need, the photographer to tune; What set you need, there are also props group arrangements, anyway, just arrange it. ”
Xu Song glanced at Ning Gang: "If I hadn't taken a directing class, I would have almost been deceived by you." Isn't the guidance tiring? Isn't the co-ordination tired? There are so many people on the set, and the director has to organize and unite and give full play to everyone's professional ability, aren't you tired? If the director is not tired, then the chairman of the National Assembly is not tired, hahaha. ”
On March 7, the filming of the ninth and tenth episodes of "Ghosts" was completed, Xu Song did not rush back to the company to do post-production, but waited until the evening, and the staff guarding Yin Tao's house called and said that Yin Tao was coming home from school
, and the group went to Xiao Taotao's house.
After explaining her intentions, her grandmother, who was still sick in bed, did not agree immediately, but asked Yin Tao: "Little Taotao, do you know how to act?" ”
Yin Tao nodded vigorously: "Grandma, I can act!" ”
After my grandmother coughed twice, she said: "Grandma taught you not to lie, this time I asked you to be the starring role, not an extras without lines." ”
Yin Tao shook her head and said with certainty: "Grandma, I didn't lie, when I was an extra, they all said that I was very good at making expressions." ”
Xu Song spoke: "Granny Zhao, Xiao Taotao's appearance and demeanor match my script very well, even if she can't act, I will teach her as a director." Because acting skills can be learned, it is difficult to match the appearance. ”
Grandma nodded: "Then it's troublesome Director Xu, Xiao Taotao is disobedient, you can teach a lesson." ”
After signing the contract, Xu Song and his entourage left. As for why the script was signed before it was written, it was because even if the company did not invest, Xu Song would pay for it himself.
In addition to wanting to help Yin Tao and Tian Xin, "Love Without Talking" is also a micro-film that he likes very much on Earth.
The film tells the story of a hearing-impaired couple who struggle to get their daughter to speak, illustrating the life values that "love can make people insist on themselves and accept the world". The warm and peaceful plot contains deep feelings, especially the little girl's sentence "Let go of my father", which directly called out Xu Song's tears.
The most important actor Yin Tao was in place, and Xu Song sent Tian Xin a WeChat.
Tian Xin has just made a comeback, and has accumulated a lot with "The Strongest Masked Singer".
Bo popularity, but it's just a business activity, let her sing a few songs, it's not helpful to the development at all, and the pay is low.
Hearing that Xu Song asked her to make a movie so quickly, even though it was a micro-movie, he happily agreed, and flew to Dongsheng tomorrow to sign the contract.
The parents of the original film are really deaf and mute, and Xu Song is also ready to do so, so early the next morning, he asked an assistant director in "Ghost" to go to the Disabled Persons' Federation to pick people.
The script that Xu Song wrote in just one night was also handed over to the company's film and television department, and Minister Qian personally reviewed it.
Then called Xu Song: "Mr. Xu, this script is very good, can it be made into a feature film of at least 90 minutes?" ”
Xu Song knew that he didn't have the ability to greatly adapt the script of the earth at this stage, so he had to make excuses: "The story is still a little thin, if it is too long, the depressing plot will increase, and the follow-up way to release emotions is too single, I am afraid that I can't support this movie." ”
"Okay." Minister Qian was a little regretful, in his heart, Xu Song's script was much better than the script they had just set for May Day.
On this day, when I was doing the post-production of "Ghost", I also did the mV of "Chapter 7 of the Night" by the way.
But Xu Song asked the company's publicity department to leave "The Seventh Chapter of the Night" alone, but wait for Liang Yuanyuan's new song.
In the evening, I had dinner with Liang Yuanyuan, who flew back to Dongsheng, and returned to Xu Song's apartment together, preparing to go to the company to record songs the next day.
Brother Cheng, Liang Yuanyuan's agent, who had been escorting Xu Song's car home, hummed happily and prepared to leave. The car started up, and when I looked up ahead, the afterglow swept in
A license plate.
Hey?
He hesitated and pulled out a notepad with rows of license plate numbers from his phone.
Wrong!
