That's how I became famous

Chapter 661 You are really the most worry-free class of students I have ever brought up

Generally speaking, the movie "The Witch" is more outstanding than the heroine and the witch.

Therefore, it is not a big problem whether Peng Peng will participate or not.

If it is helpful to him, Li Xiao will naturally find him.

However, Peng Peng is similar to Feng Mei. It should be said that Peng Peng's resources may be better than Feng Mei's. He is not short of filming, and some directors also favor him.

"Peng Peng, don't be sad, don't cry, difficulties will always pass, tomorrow will be better!"

"It's okay, Peng Peng, one day there will be a blind girl who thinks you are the most handsome man in the world."

In the group, He Jiong and Huang Lei immediately began to tease, probably laughing non-stop at the phone screen.

After a long time, Peng Peng slowly put out a question mark and asked, "Really? Am I not handsome enough?"

Li Xiao in front of this guy's computer screen clicked his tongue, do you have to be told that you are slightly ugly?
Peng Peng is still a little handsome, but for Li Xiao
The male protagonist, no, there is no real male protagonist in this drama, it should be said to be the second male protagonist.The male lead is beaten by the heroine in the play, so find someone who is more handsome, and it will make people feel better to be beaten!

To be honest, Peng Peng's image is somewhat stereotyped in Li Xiao's impression.

Whenever he thinks of Peng Peng, Li Xiao thinks of his slightly sensual face, smiling foolishly in front of him, foolishly.

Image stereotypes are a fatal problem for actors, and it is also not conducive for directors to choose and train actors.

Fortunately, it sounds serious, but it's actually okay.

After all, Li Xiao has not worked with Peng Peng in film and television works, and more impressions are formed in the mushroom house and privately. Peng Peng in film and television works has not really been finalized.

But there is one thing to say, Peng Peng is really handy in playing the heartless idiot.
To make a digression, it's really not a good thing for an actor to participate in more variety shows. It will make the audience think that he is him, not some character in the play.

To put it simply, it is easy for the audience to play.

In response to Peng Peng's doubts, Li Xiao finally replied with a "kiss on hips" emoji package, not to mention the extra words, the meaning, you can understand it yourself.
The next day, the morning sun filled the streets, and the green plants on the roadside were bathed in brilliance. It was not a rare sunny day in Beijing.

"Brother Xiaoxiao, I fell asleep last night, and I'm going to read the script now!"

"I've finished reading the script, my plot is good!"

"I'll shoot! Brother Xiaoxiao, when will you be able to join the group? Looking forward to it.jpg"

"Brother Xiaoxiao, the teacher is here, and I'm going to start tutoring. Send me a message when you wake up, and I'll call you after class at noon!"

Li Xiao got up, first sent Fang Bianmian a good morning, and then exited to see a series of unread messages from Fengmei on WeChat.

It was quite early, the first message was sent at [-] o'clock, and then two consecutive messages were sent after about ten minutes, and finally the last message was sent at [-] o'clock.

It is estimated that during the period, I was reading the script while eating breakfast.

Li Xiao replied: "Okay, call me after class."

Then he smiled and said: "It's quite considerate, and you know that I will call after I reply to the message and make sure I'm not asleep."

Fengmei should be making up cultural lessons. The other people in the Mushroom House have their own affairs to be busy, and everyone is not idle. In this way, Li Xiao feels a little ashamed. He seems to be the lazy one in the Mushroom House engine
Afterwards, Li Xiao washed up and went downstairs, and slipped out while Lili was not paying attention.

Tongfang Bianmian found a small shop outside, ate breakfast in fear, walked around for a while, and returned home before noon.

Before his butt was hot, Li Xiao received a call from Fengmei.

"Brother Xiaoxiao, do you really want me to play the heroine of this movie?" In the words, Fengmei's expectation was mixed with worry.

"You must take the picture!"

Li Xiao smiled and said, "What's the matter, don't you have a schedule?"

It was because of Fengmei that he wanted to make this movie.

"Yes, yes, but."

"Don't worry, I'm looking for you not because you are Fengmei, but because I believe you are fully qualified for this role!" Li Xiao also knows a thing or two about how to adjust an actor's mentality, and immediately gave Fengmei a cardiac.

"Well! Brother Xiaoxiao, I will read the script carefully and think about this role!" On the other side of the phone, Fengmei seriously promised.

"no, I'm fine."

Li Xiao smiled, "You should study hard and read the script when you are free. Don't put too much pressure on yourself."

After chatting for a while, it was Li Xiao who was persuading Fengmei not to spend too much time on the script.

After hanging up the phone, Li Xiao shook his head helplessly, probably he was the only director who advised the actors not to work too hard and not to take the script too seriously.

Based on his understanding of Fengmei, he had to persuade her like this.

If you don't persuade her, it is estimated that Fengmei will be thinking about the character until the filming starts, no, until the scene is finished.

Of course, the director likes such an actor, but Li Xiao feels that he is still an older brother, which puts too much mental pressure on her, so let Fengmei study hard and make up for the missed cultural lessons.

In recent days, the matter of Li Xiao looking for crew members has spread in the circle.

Li Xiao looked for the crew members. As far as everyone knows, there is only one director in their company. In other words, Li Xiao is going to make a movie?

Someone went to ask for confirmation, and they got a quick reply that it was indeed Li Xiao who wanted to make a movie, an official movie!

Why do you say official movie?
Because "The Tuner" was a big success, but it was a micro movie after all, and it didn't go to theaters, so everyone thought so.

The news caused quite a stir in the circle.

From the birth of "The Tuner", both insiders and outsiders knew that Li Xiao would definitely be a director in the future, but he didn't expect it to come so soon, so early.

He's less than 19 years old
Many great directors, at the age of 19, are still facing the confusion of life, doing odd jobs in the film industry, how can they have the opportunity to make movies?
According to the current news circulating in the circle, it seems that Li Xiao they are looking for crew members with work experience, even the assistant director is among them, and they have never heard of cooperating with any big boss, otherwise when pulling the crew, they usually use The names of some bigwigs are used for publicity.

In other words, Li Xiao's first feature-length film is likely to be shot independently.

It's not that there are some young people in the circle who have good resources, good talents, and become directors at a young age. However, the producers or assistant directors of these crews are usually named by a certain director, and they will direct and supervise the film. The direction of the shot.

This is no longer an independent filming.

"Try it? Director Li Xiao's first feature-length film, with "The Tuner" in front of it, no matter how bad it is, it probably won't go anywhere."

"I'm not very bullish, but I'll give it a try."

"Isn't that good? Li Xiao wrote the script of "You Are a Young Man", as well as "July and Ansheng". There is also a masterpiece micro-movie "Tuner". I think Li Xiao's talent is very strong. , a lot to do.”

"That's what he said, but he hasn't made a feature-length movie yet. Even those big directors don't dare to say that their movies will definitely work."

"It's meaningless for you to say that. Are you not optimistic about everyone's feelings?"

"."

There was a lot of discussion among people in the circle, some people were optimistic about it, and naturally some people were not. However, it will not affect the construction of the crew of "The Witch", and there are quite a few people who want to come.

Because Li Xiao's requirements were not high, it was easy to find some personnel with major responsibilities.

The people who came for the interview didn't expect that they got in so easily. They were worried that the crew seemed a little unreliable, and at the same time they were a little surprised.

Those who came late regretted and were jealous, and could only comfort themselves psychologically. A crew where anyone can join must not be much better.

Li Xiao, the main character, had already been selected, so there were only two casting directors, that is, assistant directors, who would help manage the actors on set after the casting.

The director of production was Yu Cai as the chief, and Fang Xiaoling and Yu Qing assisted her, and also served as on-site producers and outreach producers.

Lu Feizhang is the executive director, and Li Xiao will give some scenes for him to shoot.

Chu Xiao and the others move wherever they need to go. They can't take care of themselves yet, but they are still very versatile and know a little about everything.

It's not difficult to recruit the crew, it just takes a little time, and the progress has been expected to be fast now.

With Yu Cai as the leader, together with Fang Xiaoling and Yu Qing, everything was handled in an orderly manner, and Li Xiaolai didn't need to worry about it at all.

At this time, Li Xiao brought Fang Bianmen to visit Mr. Jin.

Coincidentally, Teacher Jin's house is just one street away from Yu Cai's house.

He rang the doorbell, and the door opened after a while. Teacher Jin looked at the things Li Xiao was carrying in his hands, and blamed him, "You just came here, why are you still bringing things?"

Li Xiao smiled and said: "It should be, just some fruits. I heard that your wife likes to drink some, so I brought a bottle of white wine over."

After entering the house, Li Xiao took a look around. The house is not too big, and the inside of the house is very tidy. Some of the furnishings are full of trendy and artistic atmosphere. I didn't expect Teacher Jin to like this style.

"Come, drink water."

Teacher Jin poured a glass of water for the two, sat down opposite, and said, "My wife has something to do outside today, so I can't come back."

After explaining for a while, he continued: "Speak up, you kid will go to the Three Treasures Hall for everything, and even bring Xiao Mian over here, so if you have anything to say, just talk about it."

During the filming of "The Tuner" last time, Mr. Jin and Fang Bianmen had already known each other.

"How come, isn't it normal for students to visit teachers?"

Li Xiao pretended to be shy, and Fang Bianmian lowered his head in embarrassment. Teacher Jin curled his lips, so he had no choice but to say directly:
"Teacher, I'm going to make a movie."

"Well, I know." There was a lot of rumors in the circle, Mr. Jin was considered half of the insider, so he naturally heard about him pulling the crew.

"As for my movie, it may be a bit violent and bloody according to the domestic review standards, but..."

"But you don't want to cut it at all, do you?"

Teacher Jin smiled, helped him complete the sentence, and asked, "What kind of violent and bloody method?"

She wanted Li Xiao to describe it, so she would know if she could help. If she couldn't help herself, she would have to ask others. Her students still needed to support her.

Li Xiao took out a drawing book from his backpack and said, "Look at it first, there are sub-shots of some scenes."

Teacher Jin took it over and took a look. He was surprised at first, tsk, this kid did a pretty good job of dividing the shots.

Of course, this pretty good is not judged by professional painters, but by the painters of general directors.

Most directors have mediocre drawing skills, and some directors may even be able to understand the sub-shots they draw.

Afterwards, Teacher Jin frowned. Li Xiao's drawing skills were really good, and he showed him the scenes of blood and flesh splashing all over the place.

Although there is no color, Mr. Jin can roughly imagine what this movie shot looks like, no wonder this kid came to the door.

"Shooting so boldly?" Teacher Jin glanced at Li Xiao.

Li Xiao said: "Everything is for the movie."

"."

This is to block myself with what I said in class. Teacher Jin got angry, "Then you go back!"

"Don't do that, Mr. Jin."

Li Xiao said seriously: "The plot of this movie is not that good to be honest, the main thing that stands out is the language of the camera."

That is the aesthetics of violence.

As I said before, the plot of this movie is generally a bit old-fashioned, but Li Xiao still thinks that this is a very good and mature commercial movie, the big reason is the language of the camera.

These violent shots will bring people a sense of refreshment from the inside out, making the audience frown and look forward to it.

Teacher Jin nodded and said, "I dare not give you a guarantee about this matter, but I don't think it's a big problem. In recent years, the domestic review standards for movies have been relatively relaxed. See what you mean, It’s going to be filmed both vertically and horizontally, so you can shoot first, and we’ll talk about whether it can be released in one piece or not.”

"Thank you, Teacher Jin!" It was Fang Bianmian who spoke, and Li Xiao quickly followed suit.

"You brat, you just aren't as likable as Xiao Mian."

Teacher Jin smiled, and then said sternly: "It may not be enough for me alone, I will find someone for you, but you have to put his name on the producer when the time comes."

"That's natural." Li Xiao nodded hurriedly.

Putting the name of the boss in the producer column is equivalent to a protective umbrella. He has contributed, and Li Xiao is not an ignorant person, and he is unwilling to give any name to others.

"Mr. Jin, I have one more thing."

Li Xiao felt a little embarrassed, fearing that Teacher Jin would not give him the chance, he hurriedly said, "It's about Jiaming. He failed a subject last semester, and then he needs to ask for leave for filming. Please help me to intercede."

After a pause, he added: "Don't worry, Jiaming must have passed the make-up exam, but I won't let him participate in this filming."

Although the name of Peking University is shining, speaking of it, the Department of Directing is still not as good as other specialized film schools. It is a good opportunity for students to have the opportunity to participate in film shooting.

After thinking about it, Teacher Jin sighed, "You guys are really the most worry-free class of students I have ever supervised!"
