207. The crew officially completed its formation

The next day.

Li Xun rushed to Xu Yi's courtyard early in the morning, and when he saw Xu Yi, he couldn't wait to say: "Old Xu, what you said yesterday is true, right?" I pushed the audition for that web drama, you can't shake me! ”

Xu Yi smiled:

"Don't worry, I'll come with me later."

"What kind of movie crew?" Li Xun asked again.

Xu Yi thought for a moment, and then explained: ""Operation Red Sea", a military action genre film. It's normal that you haven't heard of it, this movie hasn't started to be released yet, and it was only recently established. ”

Hearing this, Li Xun said in surprise:

"Just set up a project and are you ready to start filming?"

Generally speaking, the work of film project approval will be relatively early. Many films are set up for a year or two before they enter the preparation work. That's why Li Xun was curious in his heart, so ...... It can't be some grass stage team, right?

"Won't you know when you go and see it later?" Xu Yi didn't bother to explain to Li Xun, and said directly: "What you have to do now is to adjust your mentality and prepare for the audition for a while." ”

"Okay! No problem! ”

Li Xun patted his chest and said confidently.

However, as soon as he stopped for three seconds, he couldn't help but ask:

"By the way, Lao Xu, how did you know each other?"

"Is it the director's line, or the screenwriter's line? Or do you know the producer? ”

Xu Yi glanced at Li Xun and said, "I know their investors!" ”

Li Xun obviously didn't believe this, he smiled and said:

"Don't mind, I don't ask, I don't ask."

After Xu Yi had almost cleaned up, he turned around and said to Li Xun: "Lao Li, you call a car." Let's take a taxi. ”

"In your capacity, I think you should buy a car." Li Xun took out his mobile phone and suggested while calling a taxi. "Where are we going, you have to tell me the location?"

Xu Yi: "General Army Art Center." ”

This name is obviously a little unfamiliar to Li Xun.

He frowned, raised his head, and looked in Xu Yi's direction: "What art center?" Again, why do I sound a little uneared? ”

"The General Army Art Center, the General Manager's General, the Army of Military War, the General Army." Xu Yi took it apart and explained.

Li Xun hesitated as he entered:

"No, old Xu. This place, sure it's the crew? ”

"Why does it sound like a place that ordinary people are not allowed to approach?"

Xu Yi smiled and said, "Did the car call?" If you want to mumble like this again, I won't take you there. ”

Li Xun is not stupid, he knows that there are some things that can be asked and some things that cannot be asked.

When even put away the doubts in his heart, he immediately said:

"It's coming soon."

……

Half an hour after the taxi, I arrived at the General Army Art Center without hurrying.

Xu Yi led Li Xun, flashed the work card, and went directly into the compound. The casting of the crew was arranged at the General Army Art Center, also to save some venue fees. Although the investment funds have been completed now, Lu Yilian is in the spirit of saving 'post-production will cost a lot of money', and the place in the province is not nonsense.

"Brother Xu is here?"

When everyone saw Xu Yi, they greeted each other warmly.

Seeing this, Li Xun's doubts in his heart became even heavier, he couldn't help but pull Xu Yi's sleeve and asked softly, "Old Xu, what are you from?" How can you come here as if you were in your own home? ”

"I know their investors."

Xu Yi snorted.

All the way to the conference room where the actor auditioned, Xu Yi knocked on the door and said to the director: "Director Lin, I have a friend who also wants to come over to try out." He was an actor before, and although his acting skills are a little exaggerated, he is still not bad. ”

Lin Chaoxian saw that it was Xu Yi, and hurriedly said:

"Teacher Xu is here!"

"What a big deal, which role your friend wants to play, just tell me directly. If you can let Mr. Xu bring it over in person, the acting skills must be fine, my side is OK. Mr. Xu, is this your friend? ”

Looking at Li Xun beside Xu Yi, Lin Chaoxian naturally understood that this was an investor's friend.

Xu Yi has never interfered with the casting of the crew.

It's really not a big deal to just want to stuff one person in now. Lin Chaoxian didn't even audition for Li Xun, so he made a decision to join the group, and asked Li Xun to choose a role by himself.

What kind of treatment is this?

The treatment of top movie names is nothing more than that, right?

Li Xun auditioned for an online drama in the western suburbs, and he had to be picked and chosen. When has he ever been treated like this! For a while, Li Xun was a little flattered and didn't know how to answer.

On the contrary, Xu Yi insisted on saying:

"Director Lin, don't care about my thoughts, everything starts from the needs of the movie characters."

"We have to make a blockbuster, and every actor is very important."

"You can try the role of observing Li Dong for him, you can use it if you can, and you don't have to be polite to him if you can't use it. It's all his own people, even if he doesn't choose, he won't have any opinions. ”

Li Xun: Good guy, how did you recommend people, big brother?

But how can I see that the director still attaches great importance to Lao Xu's opinion, this guy doesn't really know investors, right? Or is this investor the capital behind Xu Yi?

Li Xun thought about it for a few seconds, and then quickly let his thoughts go to zero, and immediately entered the state of audition.

Xu Yi turned around and went out, sat in the position outside, and took out his mobile phone to surf the Internet.

His role has been decided, and he doesn't have to memorize his lines. has the memory of his previous life, coupled with his previous experience of staying up for three days and three nights to revise the script, Xu Yi can be said to be very good at the role of sniper Gu Shun.

In fact, when he brought Li Xun over to try out the play, Xu Yi had already guessed what the result would be.

No matter what Li Xun's acting skills are, the director will definitely pass it. The role of Li Dong does not need to test his acting skills, and several big scenes are interactive scenes with sniper Gu Shun.

was swiping his mobile phone, Lu Yilian passed by the casting conference room, saw Xu Yi, and said, "Huh", and then said, "Brother Xu, why are you here today?" The logistics preparations of the crew are also seventy-seven eighty-eight, I was planning to find you, let's plan a time, take advantage of the good weather, go to overseas locations to finish filming the scene. The domestic shooting spots will be taken at the end. ”

"I'll do it all, I'm always ready!"

In order to make this movie, Xu Yi turned down a lot of small jobs.

What variety show cast, what talent show mentor, what online drama TV series, all of them are pushed away. Once he joined the crew and started filming, he was abroad for at least half a year, so he couldn't take over these jobs.

Lu Yilian nodded and said:

"That's fine."

"I'll let you know when all the actors are set and the venue is surveyed."

"It is estimated that it will take about a week at the most, and we will be able to go."

Xu Yi snorted, "No problem." ”

After Lu Yilian left, Xu Yi secretly pondered to himself that he would go overseas in a week, which could be regarded as officially joining the group. In this way, there are some scattered jobs, and I have to reconcile them with Sister Orange within this week.

When the time comes, when she goes out, Sister Orange will definitely have to stay at home and deal with the big and small affairs of the studio.

Forehead...... Is it time to give yourself an assistant?

This was the first time Xu Yi had the idea of recruiting an assistant. In the past, when he was in Yixiu Media, Fat Tang was an agent and was only responsible for Xu Yi's work schedule. The company's business work naturally has a special person to dock. But now, Fat Orange's identity is no longer just an agent, and she has a lot of tedious work on her back, so part of the work must be withdrawn from Fat Orange's hands.

Otherwise, if you take care of both ends, you will only be able to take care of either end.

About twenty minutes later, Li Xun came out of the audition conference room with a happy look on his face.

"Lao Xu, it's done!"

He excitedly punched Xu Yi directly to the shoulder, and then said excitedly: "It's done, I can actually act in a movie!" This is the first movie in my life! ”

Xu Yi touched his shoulder and said disdainfully:

"I've never seen the world."

"It's done, it's done, what are you doing with my punch?"

"Ahaha!" Li Xun didn't care at all, grabbed Xu Yi, and said, "I was excited for a while, and I shot too hard." Let's go, I'm in for a treat today, you can eat whatever you want! ”

Xu Yi glanced at Li Xun: This guy doesn't know yet, I'm the one who plays the sniper Gu Shun, right?

Yes.

A meal can be slaughtered.

Xu Yi picked a decent place, the unit price of customers is not cheap, and the two of them finished ordering it in one go, and the preliminary estimate is several thousand. But Li Xun is not distressed at all, he can enter such a large-scale film crew for thousands of dollars, is it the ancestral tomb that is smoking?

"Then again, Lao Xu."

"I think Director Lin seems to be very polite to you, you shouldn't just know investors, right?"

At this moment, the role has been decided, and there is no one around, Li Xun still put the topic on this: "Moreover, how did you get this antenna on the movie of the General Army Art Center?" That's amazing! I'll tell you, just this thing, I can blow it for a year! ”

Xu Yi thought about it, how did he get on this line?

It's all based on strength!

If it weren't for his shooting results, how could he attract Tan Feibai's attention? If Tan Feibai didn't pay attention to himself, how could he introduce himself to the General Army Art Center?

So at the end of the day, strength is everything.

However, Xu Yi still said humbly:

"It's a coincidence."

After a pause, Xu Yi's heart suddenly moved, and he asked Li Xun a question: "Lao Li, I asked you a serious question, and you answered seriously." Do you think there will be a market for films of this genre like "Operation Red Sea"? ”

"Huh?"

Li Xun obviously didn't expect Xu Yi to ask such a question.

He thought hard about it, and then gave the real answer:

"We're not in charge of this problem, are we?"

"Let's play our roles well and get our own salaries. As for how much the final box office of the movie will go, who can say for sure? Of course, if it is the best to sell big, then we can be regarded as famous on the big screen. If you hit the street...... It doesn't seem to have much to do with us. ”

Hehe, it has little to do with you, but it has a lot to do with me.

Xu Yi did not give up, and asked again:

"I'll change the question."

"Are you interested in this type of film from the perspective of an audience member now?"

Li Xun pondered: "I...... Not bad. The key is to see how the final film is, but this theme is really rare, and I should pay attention to the theme. If the review is okay, then I will definitely go to the cinema. ”

Xu Yi nodded, Li Xun's reaction should be the same as that of most ordinary people.

New themes, how much will pay attention to it.

But whether it's worth watching or not depends on the evaluation.

In fact, in today's film market, wind reviews are becoming more and more important. If the quality of the work is passable, there will be more tap water, which will naturally drive a large number of 'silent markets', thereby pushing up the box office.

But if the work is too bad, no matter how powerful the early publicity is, it will not be able to avoid the end of opening high and going low, and finally hitting the street.

Seeing Xu Yi pondering something alone, Li Xun couldn't help but laugh:

"What do you care so much about the market?"

"Could it be that you also invested in this movie?"

Xu Yi avoided answering, but said: "I also participated in this movie, didn't Director Lin tell you?" ”

Li Xun was shocked: "What? ”

After the shock, Li Xun came back to his senses and asked:

"Lao Xu, are you serious?"

"Yes, yes, since you know investors, there's no reason why you shouldn't arrange a role. How's that, who are you playing? ”

"Sniper, Gu Shun." Xu Yi said it very calmly.

Well?

Li Xun looked at Xu Yi as if he had seen a ghost at the moment. My Nima, Lao Xu, Lao Xu, you play like this, right? I slipped here for a long time, your old man is strategizing, and the clever plan is to settle the world?

You just want to trick me, that's why you let me play your deputy, right?

"Lao Xu, you're boring...... aren't you?"

"How so?" Xu Yi said seriously, "I have no experience in acting, so I want to find someone who is experienced and can talk to me to take me." When I think about it, I think of you. ”

"Of course, if you don't want to, I can go and talk to Director Lin, and then choose someone again."

Hearing this, Li Xun immediately stood up angrily and personally poured Xu Yi a glass of wine: "What is this, it has been determined, how can you trouble Director Lin again?" I think Director Lin is also very busy, so that's it! ”

"But...... The next is not an example. ”

Joke!

finally has the opportunity to touch the big screen, even if you hold a knife on Li Xun's neck, he may not let go.

The casting of actors did not drag on for too long, and Lin Chaoxian spent two days to implement all the main actors. As for the other staff, group performances, logistics support, etc., they are also moving forward in an orderly manner under Lu Yilian's scheduling.

Xu Yi was not idle here.

Because the fourth episode of "Supernova Games" was finally broadcast as scheduled under the long-awaited chase. The 100-meter sprint is a 100-meter sprint, which has always been dominated by blacks, but it is no worse than the national football team in Asia.

And Xu Yi will also usher in the first highlight moment of his life...... (End of chapter)
