Actor: I picked up attributes on the set

Chapter 226 Gift film, "My Motherland and Me"!
Out of curiosity, Lin Yuan couldn't help asking: "Sister Xia, do you know what's going on?"

"I don't know the specific situation. I'm afraid you have to ask Mr. Wang yourself." Sister Xia shrugged and replied.

Not to mention that she is only the head of the brokerage department of Guangguang Media now, even if she is promoted to be the director of the department of Guangguang Media, this kind of thing is not something she can inquire about. If she hadn't the status of Lin Yuan's agent now, this matter would not have happened. It must reach her ears.

Lin Yuan nodded, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, walked aside, and searched for Mr. Wang's contact information in the address book.

For things like this, the sooner you ask clearly, the better. If there is really something good, he can make preparations in advance. If there are some thankless chores, he can find an excuse to shirk it.

Although this kind of behavior is a bit shameful, the reality is to pay attention to the relationship between interests. If he is not as popular as he is now, if he talks about friendship with these bosses, will they listen?

Brothers have to settle accounts clearly, not to mention that the relationship between him and these bosses is not so good, so it is better to ask clearly.

With this thought in mind, Lin Yuan called Mr. Wang.

After exchanging a few simple greetings with Wang Changtian, Lin Yuan directly entered the topic: "Mr. Wang, I heard that the major film companies are going to jointly shoot a movie. Can you tell me about it?"

"You said this, that's what happened"

Wang Changtian didn't treat Lin Yuan as an outsider, after all, he wanted Lin Yuan to participate in it from the very beginning, and it didn't seem like it was hidden, so he recounted the incident from the beginning.

Of course, what some of the bosses discussed should be omitted or omitted.

But after listening to Wang Changtian's words, Lin Yuan probably understood what was going on.

In fact, it is very simple. The bosses of several film companies feel that the main theme movies have become more popular in the film market in recent years, so they decided to make a larger-scale theme movie. The word-of-mouth of the audience is definitely a profitable business for these film companies.

These bosses are also discussing this matter these days, to see which directors it is better to find to be in charge of shooting this movie next.

Wang Changtian's idea is also very simple, it would be best to let Lin Yuan enter the crew to shoot a movie as a director.

If Lin Yuan entered the film crew as a director, he might be able to rely on this relationship in the future. Let a few artists under Guangguang Media go in and show their faces. It's a lucrative business.

If it really doesn't work, it must be guaranteed that Lin Yuan will participate in this movie as the leading actor.

There is no way, who told them that there are not many pillars among the artists signed by Guangguang Media.

And in order for Lin Yuan to agree smoothly, Wang Changtian directly paid 5000 million for the film.

In terms of Lin Yuan's current popularity, 5000 million is actually not that much, but even if this movie is the starring role, there will not be too many roles. Looking at it this way, 5000 million is very sincere.

Since Guangguang Media is now willing to tilt its resources on itself, Lin Yuan naturally has no reason to refuse such a win-win situation, and after some pretense, he agreed.

Sure enough, a few days after Mr. Wang revealed the news to him, Lin Yuan received a call from Ning Hao.

It was not the first time the two met, and there were not so many twists and turns, so they asked straight to the point: "Lin Yuan, how is your schedule going, I have a short film to shoot this year, do you have time to come and star in it?" ?”

Hearing this, Lin Yuan couldn't help being taken aback: "Guest starring role?"

"It's just a unit drama, about two to three ten minutes long, and it doesn't have as many supporting roles as in other movies." Ning Hao quickly explained, as if he was afraid that Lin Yuan would not agree, and added: "Don't worry about the script, I will do it myself Knife, there will be no problem with the quality of the script!"

"that."

Lin Yuan was about to explain that he might not have a schedule, but before he could speak, he heard Xu Zheng's voice from the other end of the phone: "Lin Yuan, don't listen to the mouse, just look at what movies he has made in the past two years Well, I've been unfamiliar with it for a long time, and when we cooperate with brother, we two brothers join forces, and when the time comes, we will directly shock everyone's attention!"

It's not uncommon for these two to be together, but listening to the bickering between the two really makes people laugh.

It wasn't until the other end of the phone became quieter that Lin Yuan explained: "Director Ning, brother Zheng, it's not that I don't want to give you face, it's that I have promised Mr. Wang to leave the schedule to him, but he hasn't done it yet. It's not convenient for me to promise you any specific arrangements."

Wang Changtian has already offered 5000 million yuan in salary, so Lin Yuan can't push him away and take Ning Hao's movie, can he?
Hearing this, there was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone for two seconds.

Then came Xu Zheng's puzzled words: "Mr. Wang? Wang Changtian from Guangguang Media?"

Lin Yuan nodded: "That's right."

"That should be a dead end." Ning Hao sighed and said helplessly.

He is the director and the founder of Bad Monkey Films, so he was naturally involved in the preparation of the film project.

When discussing which directors to be appointed, Wang Changtian was still arguing at the meeting, saying that he would arrange for a director, and he also patted his chest to ensure that the director's level must not be low, considering that Enlight Pictures invested a lot in this film. Qian, the other film bosses naturally did not raise any objections.

Now it seems that the director who asked Guangguang Media to guarantee it should be Lin Yuan without a doubt.

After hearing Ning Hao's answer, Lin Yuan's curiosity was also piqued: "Director Ning, from your tone of voice, you should know something, please let me know?"

"Wang Changtian should tell you these two days, I can only tell you, take advantage of these two days to take a good rest, then there will be no time to rest." Ning Hao replied intriguingly.

Xu Zheng also smirked at the side, pretending not to tell Lin Yuan.

The more the two were like this, the more curious Lin Yuan became. Fortunately, that night, Wang Changtian called Lin Yuan and told Lin Yuan what happened.

The name of the movie is tentatively set to be "My Motherland and Me", and it will be directed by seven directors, each of whom will shoot a unit drama.

Among them, the chief director is Chen Kaige, and the directors of the other six unit dramas are Zhang Baibai, Guan Hu, Xue Xiaolu, Xu Zheng, Ning Hao, and Lin Yuan. In contrast, Lin Yuan is the youngest of the seven directors. It is also the one with the fewest directorial works.

However, Lin Yuan was able to enter this list of directors. Apart from Wang Changtian's help, the most important thing is that the gold content of the movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine" is too high.

Don't just look at this work, but whether it is box office or word-of-mouth, it is enough to beat most of the works of these directors on the list.

In addition to telling Lin Yuan that he was selected as the co-director of "My Motherland and Me", Wang Changtian also told him the time and precautions of the film seminar.

You must know that this movie is jointly produced by most of the domestic film companies. It can be said that it is impeccable in terms of the scale of the film and the cast. In addition, this movie is also a gift film for the National Day file, which is enough to show that the major film companies The industry attaches great importance to this film.

After resting in the apartment for two days, Lin Yuan flew to BJ to prepare for the script discussion of "My Motherland and Me".

The seminar is expected to last up to a week, from nine to five. Except for eating and sleeping, the seven directors are basically in the arranged conference room, unifying the standards of the seven story image styles, and discussing together the filming styles that can be used for filming. historical events, and finally each director selects an event to shoot as a unit movie.

Before Lin Yuan arrived at BJ, Chief Director Chen Kai had already created a group chat and arranged the schedule for the seven-day seminar.

Arriving at the conference room at [-] o'clock in the morning, each director proposed his own creative ideas, and then other directors discussed at any time, and through such discussions, the collision and convergence of ideas took place, but to put it bluntly, each director said My own creative ideas, and then several other directors came to find faults.

Noon is the time for eating and lunch break.

As for whether to take a lunch break, that is everyone's habit, and no one will care.

Then in the afternoon, in addition to discussing the script, it is to determine the actors for each unit drama.

After this kind of time arrangement similar to closed management, the other directors in the group had no objection. After all, most of them came from hard times, and everyone understood the priority of things. Besides, the person who arranged this way was the chief director Chen Kaige If directors like Zhang Baibai and Xue Xiaolu have opinions, they dare not raise them in person.

Lin Yuan also readily accepted this, and was not dissatisfied. Hengdian had never experienced any hardships at that time, and this kind of task-like movie is like this. You have to make a plan for everything, and you must act according to the requirements.

Although doing so will make people feel constrained and not free, it is still much more stable than that kind of scattered filming, otherwise the filming of "My Motherland and Me" will be smashed by then, and the audience will drool can drown them.

After arriving in BJ, Guangguang Media sent a special car to take Lin Yuan to the conference room for film research.

As soon as he entered the meeting room, Ning Hao's voice rang out inside.

"Yo, Lin Yuan is here."

Originally, Lin Yuan thought that he had come very early, but unexpectedly, Xu Zheng and Ning Hao had already arrived in the meeting room, and even ate fruit leisurely.

However, Ning Hao's Bad Monkey Pictures was originally in BJ, so it was reasonable that Xu Zheng and Xu Zheng would come here first.

Lin Yuan pulled away the stool, sat next to Xu Zheng, and teased, "Hey, you two also came through the back door?"

After hearing Lin Yuan's words, Xu Zheng laughed, and quickly put aside the relationship with Ning Hao: "Don't take me with you, I came in with my own ability, the rats came through the back door, said they were investing in movies, and finally forced themselves to Shoot a unit drama."

"Look at what the two of you are talking about. Can't I make the movie I invested in? Besides, I will do it myself, and the director's fee will be confiscated, which is already very good." Ning Hao said very proudly.

He is already considered a top director in China, and there are really few who are above him.

But all three of them knew that this was a joke, so Xu Zheng also cooperated with Lin Yuan to tease Ning Hao.

While the three of them were chatting, other directors also arrived in the conference room one after another. Those who could sit in this conference room were basically well-known in the circle, so there was no need to introduce themselves.

A few minutes later, the door of the meeting room was pushed open again, and this time it was the rightful owner. Brother Chen Kai walked in with a serious expression, opened the stool and sat on the main seat.

"I am very happy to be able to cooperate with you to shoot a very meaningful work. All of you present here are the best filmmakers in our country. I will not waste time introducing myself. Let's go straight to the topic."

"From tomorrow onwards, our movie research work will officially start. The time is very tight. I hope everyone can understand. It will only take a week. If there is anything, please be patient. Everyone is very professional. Director, so everyone's goal must be the same as mine, to make a good movie, so let's use our hearts and energy to achieve good results."

"I've finished what I have to say. I hope that we can get along happily in the next few months, and we can get along as soon as possible. We are all veterans in this industry, and the shooting speed will never be slow, but I hope everyone can take it seriously. Don't treat this movie in a perfunctory way."

"Okay, that's all for the meeting. Let's have a meal together later. Let's get to know each other well at the dinner table."

As expected of the leader of the fifth generation of domestic films, he does things cleanly and neatly. He does what he deserves, but he doesn't lag behind where he should be polite. Lin Yuan feels very good.

If it were another leader to come over, it would probably take more than half an hour just to introduce myself, and the speech was stinky and long. After such a long list, in the end, it had to be slowly adjusted during the filming process.

To be as straightforward as Brother Chen Kai is, this is what a director should be like.

In this way, everyone took their things, got up, went downstairs, and went to the hotel, preparing to formally welcome the arrival of tomorrow's film seminar.
