Chapter 34: stinky boy
The next morning, there were several scenes of Yan Chengan. As the protagonist of the movie, Yan Chengan's role is undoubtedly the most important.
What the crew didn't know was that early this morning, Assistant Yan Chengan went to the largest supermarket in the county to buy electric cookers, electric stew pots, some kitchen utensils and condiments and moved them back to the hotel.
Su Man didn't stay long, less than a week. Getting up early, making a soup, stewing a dish, etc., is not particularly time-consuming.
The two got up at almost the same time, and Yan Chengan asked Su Man if he wanted to go to the scene with him to watch the shooting.
Many outsiders will be very interested in how the crew shoots on-site.
But Su Man directly refused.
It's okay to watch movies, but she doesn't think it's interesting to see how movies are created. Any job will have very boring, uninteresting intermediate links, and all kinds of abandoned and eliminated parts.
As a movie audience, seeing how the movie was shot in advance makes it easy for the movie to appear when she is watching it, and it also destroys the smoothness and beauty that she will see in the final film after watching the movie in a few months.
Even if Su Man intends to invest in movies, she only intends to hire professional people to supervise and follow up on the crew. For a complete layman like her, there is no need to re-learn relevant knowledge or even point fingers just for the sake of making money.
So, Su Man came to the crew for a few days. Many people heard the news that Yan Chengan's girlfriend came to visit the class, but they had no chance to see him at all.
Contrary to what some people had guessed, a young actor like Yan Chengan didn't have much experience. The role of this challenge is very difficult, and it is a very gloomy and extreme role. The lover's visit in the middle of the class will inevitably affect his performance.
This is Director Lou's crew!
But in the next few days in the play, Yan Chengan's state not only did not deviate by half, but even improved visibly to the naked eye.
The actor who played against him also didn't know what kind of stimulation Yan Chengan had experienced these days, or if it really came naturally. Every day when he was on the show, his state was terrifying and scary.
That kind of seriousness, going beyond all-out devotion to one's greatest emotions and feelings, full and full to the extreme, several scenes that were originally considered to be difficult by everyone, but also amazingly done once.
You must know that everyone's filming is not a vulgar idol drama. God knows that people like Director Lou Qiao will not easily shout if they feel that something is a little wrong.
I knew that when the filming started, Yan Chengan also had the experience of being told by the director that he was in a bad mood and filming a scene for a whole day. But now, he has basically broken director Lou Qiao's record.
Even in the middle of the two scenes with other actors, Yan Chengan was talking to the actors in the room, slowly raising his head and making a look that made the other party forget to speak.
Once, the actor who suddenly got stuck in the opposite play was a senior Yan Chengan in his twenties who was famous for his good acting skills.
Wait until the director calls the card and asks him what's wrong. Only then did the other party recover, and gave the young actor in front of him a thumbs up.
"The look in your eyes just now was so good. A little fluctuation suddenly appeared under the calm dead ashes. It was a volcano that was about to burst into the most terrifying flames. If I was not careful, the rhythm would be wrong."
There is some conviction in the senior's words, and there are also some expectations and envy for this young actor.
Director Lou also felt that Yan Chengan was in such a good state recently that he felt that his first filming was likely to be completed earlier than planned.
Of course, it is impossible to finish early.
Recently, Yan Chengan's urgency, patience, and torment can be seen in the calmness that is perfect. Director Lou even felt that the truth behind it was revealed, the reversal of the male protagonist's image was not intense enough, and the picture was not shocking enough, and the previous foreshadowing and rendering could be improved.
The inspiration became clearer in my mind, and the mood became more excited. Director Lou did what he said! Immediately find a screenwriter and temporarily adjust the shooting plan! A lot of things are going to change! Also add in front!
Yu Xing stood to the side and watched his heart beat faster. He couldn't tell whether it was because of fear or the excitement, fear and the blessing of finally waiting for the result in the midst of constant anxiety and speculation that made his hair stand upright.
Really let Su Man say it right!
Director Lou couldn't hold back his directorial soul, and wanted to change the shooting plan in a more literary and extreme direction.
Fortunately, fortunately, he listened.
It didn't take long for a producer sent by the investor to hear the news here, and came over to have a big argument with Director Lou.
Many people in the crew heard it.
"That's what I wanted to make, and it only made this movie better, better, and a classic!"
Director Lou excitedly told his thoughts to the people sent by the investor, trying to persuade him to understand why he wanted to add so many scenes of the original plot, and then adjust the script later.
"Director Lou, you are the director, and you have the final say on the crew. But if you want to spend more film and work more hours, it is the boss's business. You can't be the only one who has the final say."
"My duty is to keep an eye on you. Everything went according to the original plan, and you and I said it was useless."
The other party was neither humble nor arrogant, but he did not give Director Lou any leeway and refused to give in an inch. Shoot according to the plan, shoot how you like. But if the director wants to temporarily play, or even make major adjustments, there is no door!
It's not that his boss has not suffered losses before, he has heard of such losses.
Before that, I thought that Director Lou had learned a lesson in the early years, and the people sent by the investors who had not had such serious bad problems in the past two years murmured in their hearts.
Before, the boss only sent someone who didn't know much to supervise the finances. He almost didn't pay attention to Director Lou's secretiveness to Chen Cang. He had already secretly adjusted the filming plan, and it was about to develop in a direction that no one knew about.
Apart from the investors, there is really no one who can stand up to Director Lou and restrict him on the spot.
Now, since he was dispatched urgently, he will stay with the crew until the filming is over. Staring at Director Lou, he should not think about being capricious.
Looking at Director Lou who came back from a stomach full of anger, everyone in the next few scenes was frightened.
The director was obviously in a bad mood, and if he was a little dissatisfied, he would explode. Almost everyone was scolded this afternoon.
The best actors who did not make a mistake didn't get much credit for him. After filming a few episodes in the afternoon, I saw the director go to the people sent by the investor to "arguably fight".
"I try not to waste film, and I don't procrastinate too much, but you have to listen to me how to shoot."
"Otherwise I'll quit!"
Director Lou is righteous. Even if you burn more money in the end, it is normal to spend more time! Which director doesn't do that!
Lost dominance, no decision to make a decision on the film, what director do you still have to do!
"Director Lou, not long ago Director Zheng wanted to make a new film, but he couldn't get any investment for a long time, and he is still asking for help."
The people sent by the investor also changed their routines, and suddenly brought up the current situation of the director who was about the same time as Director Lou.
"We also know which directors are really talented in the film industry. It's a pity that there are directors, but there is no way. Either the box office, or the award, the word of mouth, at least let the bosses listen, do you think so?"
"It's not that you can shoot whatever you want. Isn't the original plan what you want to shoot? We all have to choose."
In the evening, someone from the crew saw Director Lou squatting alone on the road near the hotel smoking a cigarette. The screenwriter went to accompany him to smoke for a while and then left to eat.
Yan Chengan, who happened to go to pick vegetables in the evening, saw the director squatting beside the vegetable field in a bad mood, and went to pick vegetables to say hello to the director.
"Director Lou, what's wrong?"
Director Lou didn't speak, just smoked a cigarette, and when he saw Yan Chengan passing through him naturally and entering the vegetable garden to choose dishes, he suddenly had the desire to speak.
"Are you here to steal food?"
Yan Chengan looked helpless at Director Lou who was talking nonsense.
"I have already paid with the host's family, it is the land of the hotel owner's house, not to steal it."
Director Lou didn't care too much, and asked casually, "Is the crew's box lunch too unpalatable? You have to add food to yourself."
In order to prevent the male protagonist from taking the opportunity to express his opinion, Director Lou immediately blocked the way for this remark.
"It's quite ordinary, but we can't increase the budget, so bear with it."
Seeing that Yan Chengan seemed to have really plucked some green onions and coriander and was about to leave, Director Lou suddenly remembered that Yan Chengan's girlfriend had come to the crew. It is estimated that the two young people would be together?
Thinking of this, although I was in a bad mood, Director Lou, who had a good impression of the actor and his girlfriend, felt that his feet were numb and his stomach was a little hungry.
Just now, he didn't eat the lunch. I don't know if the group kept it for him.
"By the way, let me say hello to her too. It's considered to be acquainted. Don't say people come here. You guys don't bring her out to meet people."
Director Lou stood up talking to himself, followed Yan Chengan directly, and also stated his true purpose.
"You can count on me for opening a small kitchen. I can eat a little bit."
In the kitchen, Director Lou Qiao, who was devouring the food, put down his third bowl of rice, and his mood suddenly became brighter.
He had gone through so much wind and rain, and he was still suffering. If you can handle it, you can handle it. If you can't handle it, you can adapt. Take it one step at a time.
However, looking at Yan Chengan and Su Man who didn't eat much, Director Lou, who boasted that he would not feel embarrassed when he did anything or said anything at his age, blushed a little.
"Xiaoyan, your craftsmanship is so good, I'll eat too much if I'm not careful, hahaha."
Seeing that the two young people didn't say anything, Director Lou felt that the two of them would not give him a step down, so he immediately looked for another topic. He really ate too much today, and it was unexpectedly delicious.
If it wasn't for Yan Chengan being his male lead, he would have wanted Yan Chengan to cook for him while he was on the crew for a moment just now.
"The conditions here are really tough. Cheng'an has a lot of drama, and Xiao Su can't show you around."
Eating people's mouths are short, and besides eating two-thirds of them, Director Lou's name for Su Man has changed from Miss Su before to Xiao Su with two more cordials.
"It's okay, work is important. I, a layman, can easily affect the progress of the crew and cause trouble."
Su Man, who originally had a good impression of Director Lou Qiao, saw this middle-aged man with a red face and a good mood, and made a note in his heart.
This kind of thing can't be two.
Will be protected from now on.
Hearing Su Man's words, Lou Qiao was even more satisfied, she just felt that Yan Chengan was a good seedling, and his girlfriend was also a first-class good, great atmosphere!
"Speaking of which, I haven't thanked Director Lou for introducing Director Lin Miao to me."
Seeing that Lou Qiao, who seemed to be in a bad mood at first, is now completely cheered up, Su Man also raised his mouth.
Recently, because I was busy with my movies, I didn't pay much attention to the situation on Lin Miao's side. Lou Qiao was a little surprised to hear Su Man say this.
"The pre-investment payment on my side has already passed, and Director Lin Miao is probably busy with the preparatory work."
Su Man's simple sentence instantly diverted Director Lou Qiao's curiosity and attention to Yan Chengan's craftsmanship.
Lou Qiao did not expect that the other party just asked him to recommend whether there are some creative and thoughtful new directors in the industry who are interested in making low-cost commercial films. The two sides were brought online so quickly, and even the investment funds had already arrived.
Although Lin Miao has a different pursuit in movies than him, Lou Qiao has a hunch that their road will go further and further, but he is also very happy to see that his students can get investment, and the independent director has the opportunity to be released in theaters. Movie.
"I want to thank you for giving her so much trust."
Director Lou Qiao's words are sincere, it is really difficult for a new director. It is difficult to get ahead in this industry. I don’t know how many people who have a movie dream can’t wait for an investment in their lives, and can’t see their own movies.
It is even more difficult in the industry for young new female directors to want to make comedy.
Especially when Lou Qiao himself was told softly and stubbornly by the investors just now, and if he did not follow their wishes, he would not be able to get the balance of the investment, or even have no chance of cooperation in the future, his mood was more complicated and profound.
"Excuse me, Miss Su is so bold and decisive to invest in a new director. Have you ever thought that the cost may not be recovered?"
Reason tells Lou Qiao that the other party must have her own considerations for investment, and she will not be someone who randomly throws money away. The small-cost comedy also shows the main purpose of the other party to make money, and wants to come in and try the water.
However, the call with the investor just now and his concerns about the students made Director Lou still unable to control his emotional considerations, and it was not clear how much of Su Man's investment was for his own face.
If he really wasn't big-faced, Su Man mainly saw that the other party was his student——
"You don't need to be suspicious, you don't need to be suspicious. When I met Director Lin Miao, I already knew her thoughts and the final effect of the film, and I was ready."
"I made my appeal very clear, and I believe that Lin Miao can take into account the commerciality and the story itself, and make a movie that she likes and the audience can watch."
Hearing this, Director Lou swallowed all his words. I don’t know if I should be thankful that the students are lucky and met such an investor for the first time, or should I reflect on my own path, or I should sigh that investors all over the world are the same.
Seeing that Director Lou kept staring at Su Man and asked her various questions, it meant a long and in-depth discussion.
"Director Lou, I'm a little confused about a question in a scene at night, can you listen to me?"
Yan Chengan, who hadn't said much just now, just looked at Su Man, interrupted, and naturally turned the topic back to the real business, and Director Lou's attention was diverted again, and he paid great attention to it.
The big things are not as important as his movies. He has just been very satisfied with Yan Cheng'an's state these few days. Why is the male protagonist suddenly confused!
"Okay, I won't disturb your work, I'll go back to my room."
"Have a chance to talk next time."
Before they could exchange a few words, Su Man, who was not interested in these and was not used to listening to other people's work, got up and went upstairs.
Soon, it was time for the originally scheduled night shooting. All the equipment and machines were restarted, adjusted, and the actors and staff for the next few scenes were in place and filming began!
Because of the confusion that Yan Chengan asked just now, the current director Lou Qiao has no investors or students in his mind, so he is worried about the performance of the actor, and has been nervously watching every expression and movement of Yan Chengan on the monitor.
However, after filming like this, Director Lou didn't see anything wrong. Yan Chengan still performed according to their original plan and the conclusion of communication, and there was no entanglement or doubt in the actor, which might affect the final scene.
When Yan Chengan also came to the monitor to watch the scene just now, he answered the director calmly.
"At that moment, it was indeed a bit tangled, but when the filming officially started, I suddenly figured it out, and I don't have any entanglement at all."
This reason sounds good and normal. Director Lou didn't think any more, he continued to announce the passage with the loudspeaker, and took the next scene.
Yan Chengan's condition tonight was very accurate, and the other actors were also in good condition. The filming went very smoothly, which made Lou Qiao gradually forget what happened just now.
Although he is a director of literature and art, Director Lou's heart is sometimes very delicate, and sometimes he is extraordinarily nervous.
Until today's night scenes were all over, Director Lou got into the car with a cigarette in his mouth and was about to go back to the hotel. In the car, he listened to the assistant director and the others chatting.
"It's been a long time since I've photographed so comfortably, no ink marks."
"I originally had a relative's daughter who I wanted to introduce to Xiaoyan, but unfortunately he has a girlfriend."
"Good people, good acting, good looks and temperament."
Soon someone laughed at him: "You are so vulgar. You always say that you have relatives' daughters and sons who want to introduce people. Just open a dating agency, where will they be short of girlfriends?"
Director Lou looked around these old guys. Although he didn't mention the details of Su Man, he also mentioned: "My girlfriend is very good, and the relationship between the two is good, so don't think about it."
Thinking of the meeting on the plane for the first time and the conversation just now, Director Lou felt more and more that the other party came from and spoke well.
There are a few young people at this age who can freely spend money to invest in new directors to make films. If nothing else, this wealth and courage alone are definitely not ordinary people.
Thinking that many actresses love wealthy businessmen, there are even actresses whom Lou Director used to be optimistic about and fade out after marrying into a wealthy family, focusing on their husbands and children.
His cigarette smoked deeper.
He really appreciates Xiaoyan, and if there is a suitable role in the future, he will definitely be considered. It is comfortable, comfortable, and sparkling.
I just hope he doesn't really "marry into a wealthy family" and retire.
"Is the relationship good? I heard people say that he is very professional and has never been in a relationship before. Although he has a girlfriend later, he has always been very low-key."
Although the car is full of old men, sometimes there are always a few gossip.
Hearing the low-key, Director Lou's first reaction was that Xiao Yan was really low-key. But soon, the intuition of the person who came over made the director seem to have discovered something that he had overlooked.
Suddenly, Director Lou cursed in his heart: Brat!
What a low key! The assistant director actually thinks that their feelings are normal.
I just boasted that he would use his brain to film, but he almost cheated him today.
In the past, when they were in love, they also looked at their lover very tightly. Director Lou, who didn't like others to see her, figured out all the details in an instant and threaded them into a thread.
Before meeting the director, I rushed to pick up my girlfriend; Yan Chengan's calm, impatience and patience were particularly good since the other party visited the class; I suddenly started cooking after a heavy scene; Solved it again...
What a stinky boy!
This care and possessiveness is still hidden! Why is the mind so small!
At this time, Xiao Zheng was also on the phone with a friend of hers. Director Lou's rule is that she is not allowed to reveal anything related to the movie, but she just chats with her friends about the male protagonist!
"What? His girlfriend came to visit the class, and the two still live in the same room!"
Hearing Xiao Zheng's revelations, her friend felt sad. Even if he said that he was just his fan, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he heard that people were in love with each other.
"Don't tell me about this, but they never came out to show their affection, so I can't say how they feel."
"His girlfriend is quite arrogant. When he came here, he heard that manager Yan Chengan personally helped to carry the luggage. He also sent an assistant to buy her a lot of things, because she was afraid that she would not be comfortable living there."
"In the past few days, she stayed in the hotel and didn't say anything to say hello to other people, and she didn't watch Yan Chengan filming."
"However, I heard from the people who first met her that she was really beautiful and had a special temperament. She was not an ordinary beauty at all, but a rich girl."
"It just seems that Yan Chengan didn't bring her out to meet people. I don't know what happened, whether she didn't like it or what she thought."
Xiao Zheng talked about his feelings and broke up gossip with his friends on the other end of the phone.
When it comes to rich girls, my friends really think of someone. There was someone around her who knew Qi Jiang, the eldest lady of Qi's Pictures, who seemed to have chased Yan Chengan before, but she didn't know the details of his girlfriend.
Up to now, Qi Jiang really knew the details of Su Man. After all, the matter of the Su family has basically spread throughout the capital circle these days.
In terms of identity and family background, Qi Jiang is still proud. Even in the heyday of the Su family, she is not cowardly, let alone the current Su family.
But before she knew it, her mentality had changed a bit.
First, she was calmly replied by the other party, don't be a scholar, and then heard about Su Man's "feat" against her own family. Miss Qi, who has never been afraid of heaven and earth, seems to be really a little cowardly.
Miss Qi, who originally wanted to secretly go to see Yan Chengan in the crew, didn't buy a plane ticket in the end.
It doesn't matter if she is prettier, smarter, or capable than her, and she is not afraid of her class, but a ruthless man with money and ability reminds her not to be a scholar!
Qi Jiang is not stupid, and it is impossible to send it directly to others for ridicule.
Before, she hadn't seen Su Man anyway, so she just rushed over when she liked someone. It doesn't matter if she is rejected, I just feel that few men and few women can stand her identity.
But who knows that there are men who are really indifferent to her, not only block all her contact information, but also ask her to respect herself. It doesn't even matter if she threatens to mess with his career.
Before, Qi Jiang was not convinced. He is beautiful, lively, rich and powerful, why didn't he dump his girlfriend and be with him?
But now, listening to Su Man's background and what he has done recently, it is obvious that he is not the one who would fear her and would die in fear behind his back.
If he really faced each other, Qi Jiang had to admit that... he might not win, and he might even be bullied by the other party and come back to find someone for help.
As a result, Qi Jiang, who was in a very bad mood, went home and heard the family chatting about the Su family. He lamented that the Su family had narrow horizons and only looked at gender, and fell into a big somersault.
Dad and uncle actually praised this Su Man, saying that she is also very good at investing now, and even joked that she could let her brother and cousin go after others.
The "princess" of the Qi family exploded immediately!
"Absolutely not!" Qi Jiang, who was black in front of him, instantly understood how to make her his sister-in-law.
Even if I reluctantly gave up my love, I couldn't let her be my sister-in-law. It was too scary to face that cold face, that bad mouth, and that bottomless hard-hearted heart every day!
"If you have a boyfriend, don't mess with the red line."
Qi Jiang finally had a memory, and knew that people who had a target should not pry it casually.
At this moment, a news came from the TV of Qi's villa.
The female anchor broadcasted on TV: The Su Group today formally accused the former chairman of the group, Su Chengwen, of taking advantage of his position to privately use the official seal to sign a major contract in violation of regulations, causing a major crisis in the group, and has filed a lawsuit against him.
It is reported that the share price of Su Group has continued to fall and has fallen to an all-time low. Some professionals said that the findings of the regulator's investigation may also give a final blow to the shaky Su Group. The specific circumstances of the prosecution are still unknown, and it is still doubtful whether the fate of the Su Group can be preserved.
In short, the recent series of incidents of the Su Group have reminded the majority of business operators to be honest and operate in accordance with laws and regulations...
The Qi family was stunned. Lin Wan, who accidentally heard TV at the beauty salon, was dumbfounded. Su Man, who got on the plane back to the capital, only sighed.
The Su family actually made this move.
That's right, Mr. Su doesn't have only one son, Su Chengwen.
He just didn't know that Su Chengwen unexpectedly found that he had become the abandoned son of the group. He felt betrayed by his family.
