Chapter 50
Fang Nan was awakened by thirst.

When I woke up, the night was still deep, and there were streaks of neon lights outside the window.

With a swollen head, he drank some tap water and went back to bed. He was startled by as many as 13 missed calls on his mobile phone.

"It's a mistake to drink!"

Fang Nan didn't expect the phone call to come so quickly. While patting his forehead angrily, he clicked on the unread text message.

Li Zhu: At nine o'clock tomorrow morning, International Hotel.

After reading this text message, knowing that the other party didn't care about it, Fang Nan's heart sank, but after being frightened by this, he couldn't fall asleep even if he wanted to sleep.

Turning his butt and getting out of bed, he dug out the pen and paper in his bag, and started to write and draw according to the script he read yesterday, combined with his own memory.

The character of "A Chinese Ghost Story" starts with the style.

The number one male scholar, Ning Caichen: Weak chicken, without the strength to restrain the chicken, passively beaten.

Female No. [-] Nie Xiaoqian: Looks like a weak chicken, with superficial skills.

Female No. [-] Yan Hongye: The posture is mainly graceful.

Male No. [-] Zhuge Liuyun and Qiye Shengjun: the fighting style of the former is mainly reckless and amusing in the early stage, and the fighting style is real in the later stage; the latter is mainly handsome.

Male number three Yan Chixia, female number three Sima Sanniang: serious.

Summary of the fighting style of the TV series "A Chinese Ghost Story": unique postures and special effects are used to distinguish it from other costume TV fighting styles.

Fang Nan stretched contentedly after writing about 2000 words and a few sketches.

He didn't know what the result of today would be, but it was better to do some preparation work than to stare blankly and wait for someone to be sentenced to death, at least he worked hard and struggled.

After transcribing and rewriting the template written casually, it was already bright daylight, Fang Nan put away his things, washed his hands and feet quickly, took a shower, and left the hotel.

In the golden lobby of the International Hotel, before Fang Nan squeezed into the elevator, Wu Jing called and revealed a piece of news to him.

The producer of "A Chinese Ghost Story" Yang Kui, the male and female leading actors, and the screenwriter checked into the hotel last night, so he should be careful.

Fang Nan scratched his head, not sure why he should be careful with this thing, he had done what he had to do, and let fate do his best.

"This is Fang Nan."

In the conference room of Yang Kui's business suite, Li Zhu pointed to Fang Nan who came in behind his buttocks and said to Yang Kui.

"Find a place to sit by yourself."

Yang Kuisi was 50 years old, and he didn't exude viciousness. He looked up at Fang Nan, pointed to a row of chairs on his right, and arranged Fang Nan casually.

There was no questioning or greetings. He had met many capable people, and it was not uncommon for him to be an action instructor in his 20s.

After saying "thank you", Fang Nan pulled away a chair in the middle on the right, and sat down without any hesitation.

The conference room was brightly lit, besides Yang Kui and Li Zhu, there was Fang Nan, "The viewers are back, I'm sure to shoot in Dali." After Fang Nan sat down, Li Zhu said to Yang Kui.

"These are your business, professional things are left to professional people. I am only responsible for giving you money, and you are responsible for filming my tricks so that I can make money. I am here today to meet with you. Let's get to know each other. Tomorrow I will I'm going back to Taiwan."

"Don't mention anything else, Fang Nan, you have to make some arrangements. You have trained so many action stars. In terms of experience, I can't even catch up with you."

While Li Zhu was talking with a smile, a young man wearing glasses walked into the meeting room.

"Chen Shisan, screenwriter." After Li Zhu's introduction, Fang Nan got up and held out his hand.

As soon as the two shook hands and sat down, Yang Kui pointed at Chen Shisan and said, "San Shisan said, didn't you see the photos last night?"

Chen Shisan glanced at Yang Kui, then at Fang Nan who was opposite him: "I feel pretty good, almost as I thought."

As soon as these words came out, Fang Nan was determined, and immediately put the thousands of words of analysis and sketches written in the middle of the night in the middle of the conference table, and said with a smile:

"Boss Yang, Director Li, and screenwriter Chen, this is what I wrote overnight about the action style of "A Chinese Ghost Story" and the fighting style of the main characters."

Yang Kui glanced at it twice and passed it to Li Zhu. Li Zhu looked at it for a while before sending it to Chen Shisan.

A few simple pages made Chen Shisan fidget. After scratching his head, he said in surprise: "Your summary is similar to what I thought. You didn't get the detailed script, right?"

Fang Nan snickered inwardly, but on the surface he was calm: "No, what I read is Wu Jing's actor's script."

"Then it's settled. Fang Nan is in charge of the action. Director Li, you can arrange an executive director to help him check it out."

Fang Nan and the scriptwriter's ideas coincided, so there was nothing else to say. Boss Yang Kuiyang decided to boldly use Fang Nan.

But he was old, and he added an executive director at the end of the day, which added a layer of protection to the action part of the play, and also put a curse on Fang Nan's head.

After confirming Fang Nan's position, Li Zhu left the conference room and called in all the people waiting outside.

There were dozens of people in the meeting room, Wu Jing was in it, Fang Nan smiled knowingly at him, Wu Jing was so startled that he almost said "I'm rough".

The morning meeting lasted until lunch time. Boss Yang accompanied everyone to have a meal, and then shook hands with everyone to encourage them one by one, and then stopped showing up.

After dinner, Fang Nan was going to go back to move things and live in the International Hotel, but Li Zhu dispelled his enthusiasm with a word.

They stayed in such a good hotel not because the crew was rich, but because they were waiting for Boss Yang to come over. Now that the interview is over, they are about to leave for Dali.

The careful thought of saving money failed, Fang Nan told Li Zhu about his idea of ​​finding an executive director.

The candidate is Huang Weiming from TVB.

Huang Weiming and Li Zhu also knew each other, so she asked Fang Nan to contact him and talk about it first, as the price would be too high.

Back at the hotel at night, Fang Nan called Huang Weiming.

I didn't expect that he would have a job now, and Huang Weiming had already joined Tangtang Film and Television. Cai Yinong quoted him 50 yuan for a foreign movie, which was 10 times that of Fang Nan's "A Chinese Ghost Story", which was outrageously high.

"Are you acting as an action director for the crew now? What kind of play? It's also a co-production?"

There is no righteousness in the business, the business is not successful, Cai Yinong immediately asked about Fang Nan's current situation, Fang Nan was also willing to talk to her.

"Well, it's a co-production, a costume fantasy drama, and the producer is from Taiwan."

As for why they are all co-productions, everyone understands.

out of policy.

There are few behind-the-scenes talents in China, and young actors have not made their mark, so they can only engage in the filming mode of the mainland paying money, Hong Kong behind the scenes, and Hong Kong and Taiwanese actors as the protagonists.

This is also related to the increasing demand for entertainment and culture in the mainland, and a group of Hong Kong filmmakers have come to BJ many times to seek help from the state.

The squeezed Xiangjiang filmmakers who have no living space, plus the barrenness of talents at all levels of entertainment culture in the mainland, thus formed the era of co-productions in the 2000s.

In short, everyone learns from each other's strengths and reports to the group to keep warm.

The two chatted for a while and put down the phone, Fang Nan continued to sketch.

Cai Yinong sat in confusion for a while.

Fang Nan crawled too fast, which gave her an unreal feeling. Action director is a job that can determine the life and death of a play!
