The ace agent starts with the girl group

Chapter 250
"Xu wants to treat us to dinner."

In a house that looked like a conference room, a man wearing sunglasses said to the people next to him with his legs crossed.

This person is none other than Wang Tingchao, the director of "Marrying the Right Man on the Wrong Sedan Chair".

Different from the director Bai Fatzi at the beginning, Wang Tingchao has directed many film and television dramas. He has filmed three dramas within Tengying. .

He is one of the oldest directors in Tengying. Those who are more senior than him are either in established entertainment companies or have their own studios.

Wang Tingchao is a stage name, his real name is Wang Tingchao, but later he felt that there was no artistic atmosphere, so he changed Tingchao to Tingchao.

Of course, changing his name did not bring about any change in his career. This buddy is in his 40s, so he has no masterpieces. All nine of his works were on the stars and were let off on TV.

As far as masterpieces are concerned, none of the TV dramas he filmed were highly rated. He didn't get half of the nominations for the three important TV awards in China.

Now he is more or less like a blue-collar player in the top league of the League of Legends. If he is not skilled, he must be better than passer-by players. If he is good, he doesn't have any outstanding operations.

Logically speaking, what a person like Wang Tingchao lacks is a high-scoring masterpiece to elevate his status.

He knew it himself, so he sold himself to Tengying, hoping to get some good projects with the help of Tengying, a big dog.

But after spending a few years in Tengying, the TV series I filmed are more hip than the other.

Moreover, he found the scripts for two of the three dramas by himself, and Tengying gave him enough respect and freedom.

He felt that the script he was looking for was too good, and it would definitely win the ratings and awards, but the result was very different from what he expected.

After doing this twice, he was going crazy. He thought that his skills and vision had reached the peak, and the only thing missing was the opportunity to control projects freely. Now that he has controlled three projects, he suddenly found that the current market is too deep. I can't grasp it.

At this time, he began to doubt himself. He was depressed at first, but now he was suddenly named by Wu Gufeng and dumped to such a small crew. He felt that he had been abandoned by Wu Gufeng. started to mess up.

"The opening ceremony will be held tomorrow. It stands to reason that if there is something to eat tomorrow, we will have something to eat today." A man wearing a hat next to him said. He is the boss of the film crew and the chief photographer of the film crew.

"I'm afraid it's a Hongmen banquet. Maybe it's because we haven't progressed fast enough, and the teacher is here to ask the blame." Wang Tingchao stretched his waist and said.

"Director, be confident and remove the possibility. That bitch named Jessica looks at us every day as if we owe her money." Another man said with a smile, this is the assistant director.

"It's not wrong to use that expression. She is Xu Qing's representative. Aren't we spending their money?" Wang Tingchao said self-deprecatingly.

"Hahaha, then maybe we will be deported tonight?" The assistant director laughed.

"Drive it away, it's good for everyone." Wang Tingchao shook his head indifferently.

"Director, why don't we finish the work early, that Xu Qing made two dramas before and now they are getting good reviews, so it feels a bit inappropriate to drag him down like this." At this time, a man bowed his head and said in a low voice.

"What's the matter, the producer is here, you have the backbone of the drama, right?" Before Wang Tingchao could speak, the assistant director next to him immediately sneered.

The man who lowered his head and spoke just now is the director of the drama. The main job of the director of the drama is to ensure the basic necessities of life of the crew. The director of the drama is directly under the supervision of the producer.

A production team generally has several departments: production team, director team, photography team, recording team, art team, and production team. Except for the production team, only this production team can not direct at all. Working under the arrangement of the chief director is somewhat caring.

That's what I said, but after all, the director's position in the crew is different, and a director of production would not dare to offend the director.

"That's not what I meant. There are only 20 episodes in this show. Let's finish it early and get things done."

"What do you know, if you don't procrastinate and increase the budget for this ruined drama, if you don't procrastinate and increase the budget, we will be ashamed to say it." The assistant director said disdainfully.

After finishing speaking, before anyone could reply, he went on to say: "To be honest, we have such a bad drama in our resume, which will affect our future career. What do you think if all the projects are accepted? Doesn’t this mean that no one wants us?”

"However, the investment in Xu Qing's first two dramas is not large, but the income is considerable, and the market's evaluation is also good. I think Xu Qing is a person who is good at making big things out of small things. If we make this drama well, it will have a positive impact. .” The voice of the drama director was still very low, but in terms of content, he still made his position clear.

"Fuck, what kind of script did he write before, and what kind of script is he writing now? Are urban dramas and costume dramas the same thing? I wonder if your kid has been influenced by those idiots in the art team. Why are you talking like that today? Do you take our director seriously?" the assistant director scolded directly.

"I'm not influenced by anyone, I'm just discussing the matter. It's Mr. Wu's intention for us to accept this drama, and we didn't take the initiative to accept it. Other investors can't say anything." Kind of annoyed.

"Pfft, how old are you? Do you have a brain? The biggest problem is that Mr. Wu asked us to take on this drama. I don't believe you can't guess what Mr. Wu means? You can't see it?

To be honest, maybe we all have to get out of Tengying after filming this bad drama, and then we have to follow the director’s ass to find investment by ourselves. If the investment is not raised to more than [-] million yuan, the filming of this drama will not be possible, as the director said. "The assistant director laughed.

"Shut up, don't blame me for what you said. I didn't mean that. I just think that puppet shows don't have popular stars to support the scene. They need to be sharpened. Sharpening a knife is not a woodcutter." Wang Tingchao disgusted He glanced at the assistant director.

This guy sounds like he is speaking for himself, but he actually hates himself for not dying, dog, if this word gets out, will he still be able to hang out in the circle in the future?
It seems that this idiot also thinks that he was given up by Wu Gufeng, and he wants to take his place. It's a beautiful idea, and he doesn't look at what kind of thing he is. He also wants to take my place and be your mother's daydream .

The chief cameraman watched these people arguing endlessly and didn't speak, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the bigger the crew, the more fierce the fight is than anyone else.

He has worked with Wang Tingchao many times, and he is regarded as Wang Tingchao's royal photographer. Originally, he thought Wang Tingchao was a director with dreams and aspirations.

Looking at it now, he only thinks that Wang Tingchao's grandson is really not up to the mark. Not to mention the poor performance in his prime, he can still be slapped in the face by an assistant director like this. It was impossible before. He is really It's almost over.

The bickering in this conference room is still going on, but Xu Qing doesn't know that he is wandering around the set at this time, communicating with the leading actors, asking about his understanding of the characters, and encountering anything that feels wrong By the way, I would like to offer comments.

After communicating with the leading actor, I went to the art team to meet my "fans".

The word "fan" is not nonsense. The makeup of the characters in this drama is set by Xu Qinghua. After the makeup is finished, the group of makeup artists in the art team are astonished. This is the power of a makeup master, but any master, no matter what it is Masters in the industry, in the eyes of their peers, are amazing figures, and those with savvy can learn a lot on the spot.

In addition to the makeup artist, the costume and jewelry staff were also very surprised by Xu Qing's sketch design. Xu Qing's design is very beautiful, much better than similar dramas.

Speaking of which, the current look of ancient puppets is really unattractive, not to mention the lack of classical beauty, and the clothes are even more "plain".

Nowadays, those who look good in ancient costumes are all in historical dramas, which is simply a subversion.

Because generally speaking, historical dramas pursue a sense of historical fit.

Idol dramas pursue aesthetics, so logically speaking, idol dramas must look better than historical dramas.

In terms of drama genre, whether it is a modern idol drama or a costume idol drama, the first priority is to be good-looking. It is not good for actors to be ugly, let alone ugly.

People who are not good-looking can still make up for it with makeup, and actors who are not good-looking with makeup can turn into ugly things.

Well now, the makeup level of idol dramas has declined collectively. In terms of aesthetics, they are not as good as historical dramas. This is still an idol drama.

If it’s not good, can it be called an idol drama? The selling point of the idol drama itself is the sexual tension and the audience’s fantasy of substituting the characters. If it’s not good, who fantasizes about you?
After chatting with this group of people, Xu Qing didn't continue to wander around the set, but returned to the hotel and called Yuan Huhu over. The two began to think about how to give this group of people a bad start tonight.
