Chapter 410 Director Lu

410

However, just like actors, movie directors are more popular and more likely to become famous because of their commercial value and high returns. To put it bluntly, they are more priced. Similarly, for a good TV series, the director's fame may even be more famous than the actors in the show, and he is more likely to attract investment.

It's just that due to the time limit of movies, some directors are good at compression and quick work. They like the impact and brilliance of the big screen and the finale, and don't like to make a long story line and timeline like a TV series. So they resolutely refuse to be TV series directors, and some people even belittle TV series directors. Really, there are many such directors who support the contempt chain of the film and television industry and hold high the supreme banner of the film industry.

Some directors, after getting a good script, are likely to shoot both TV series and movies. There are many such directors, and the main idea is that the more capable you are, the more work you will do. If the filming is good, it means the boss is doing both, and if it is not good, it means he is too busy to take care of both. However, there are indeed audiences who like directors who do both, because the movies and TV series are very smooth to watch, and fans of the movies and TV series rarely quarrel. Jarvis is such a director. Qi Quan, the director of "Society and State", also shot both movies and TV series in the early days, and later specialized in TV series.

  There are also many directors who specialize in TV series. They are more or less perfectionists. They don’t look down on movies, but they also say that movies are castrated light and shadow art. Only the slow and meticulous work of TV series, and the meticulous shooting and production, can realize the best stories in their hearts. Many of the big directors who have been deeply involved in the TV industry are extremely picky.

However, there is still no consensus among people in and outside the industry as to whether the threshold to be a movie director is lower or that to be a TV series director.

Cai Cai didn't think that it would be cheap for a movie director to shoot a TV series, she was just curious about why she was called here.

"How much more drama is there?" Xianjun is also one of the thousands of shareholders, so he is paying attention to the ongoing projects. Now the project in Lu Keke's hands should be completely completed.

Because Lu Keke was filming and editing at the same time, and other post-production was also going on at the same time, basically when the crew finished work, the filming and production of the project were basically completed, and it was time to enter the film viewing stage, which was equivalent to a film viewing meeting. However, Lu Keke's TV series had already negotiated the broadcast platform and various broadcast methods since the project was established, and even the subsequent third and fourth broadcasts were also negotiated, and the price was satisfactory to all parties. So the film viewing meeting is just a simple film viewing meeting, and at the same time there will be trailers and media water army online.

It can only be said that once Lu Keke's name was known, the investment conferences went smoothly. After all, many people only came to Lu Keke with money, hoping that Lu Keke could take them with her when she started her own film projects. Because with Lu Keke's status, to put it bluntly, even if she passed away, everyone could continue to make money by remaking her films over and over again. In short, even if Lu Keke closed her eyes and made a messy and ugly film, she would not lose money.

"The only one missing is that little girl," Lu Keke said, rubbing her hands and looking at Cai Cai with a smile, "I wanted to find you at the ceremony before. I knew you were busy, so I was a little embarrassed. It was the Immortal Lord who said I could give it a try, so, hehehe."

Cai Cai hesitated, "Guest appearance?" The filming of the drama was almost finished, except for one role. This role would be a cameo that would be a highlight but with few lines.

Lu Keke continued to nod and chuckle.

Cai Cai breathed a sigh of relief, "Guest appearances are fine, but big projects are not."

"." Mei Zhang outside the door was silent. This is Lu Keke. What are you talking about?

Lu Keke said she understood. She had seen through Cai Cai's naivety and directness a long time ago. "I am indeed preparing a film project. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be my last big project in my later years. After that, I really want to semi-retire and shoot for fun. I really just want to find you to play. To be honest, female characters in science fiction themes, whether human or non-human, must be inhumanly beautiful. But on the big screen, there are only a handful of people who can really be inhumanly beautiful, not to mention the skin condition. Actresses can show inhuman appearance on the big screen only when they are in their twenties."

Alas, "The camera is so demanding. If you are younger, many scenes cannot be filmed, and you don't look like an adult. If you are older, let alone over 25, even over 23, you don't look the same age as 20. The golden age is not just a nice word. You are still young now, and in two or three years, when you are 20 years old, it will be just right. By then, I should be ready, so you should wait for me first and don't rush to take other projects, okay?"

Lu Keke's tone was already pleading, "I asked you before if you had any thoughts on dressing up ugly because I was afraid that you were the kind of actress who wanted to dress up ugly just to prove her acting skills. I'm really happy to know that you don't have such extreme thoughts. Really. After all, the prime of life is only a few years, and after that, there will be plenty of time to dress up old and ugly. The audience won't agree if you want to act young, so why bother to rely on dressing up and ugly to prove your acting skills? The most popular and longest-standing photos of any actor are all beautiful photos."

"I will polish the script to its best, I will prepare all the props and costumes carefully, and I will also finalize the special effects in the later stage. All I need is for you to wait for me and give me a chance, okay?"

  Lu Keke didn't want to be so humble. She had lived to such an old age, and it was very rare for her to be so humble. But there was no way. Top-quality beauties were really hard to find and even harder to meet. When she met Xianjun before, she thought she would just look at his stills and think about the past in this life. Unexpectedly, she would live to an old age and meet a peerless beauty like Cai Cai in her lifetime.

Cai Cai is absolutely bare-faced today. She is more flawless and lively than when she is wearing makeup. Cai Cai with makeup is Cai Cai with different filters, and Cai Cai without makeup is Cai Cai with only the clear filter. Under close observation, this glowing beauty is even more dazzling. It is so dazzling that it can confuse people's minds in an instant. If a person is not determined, and really loses the ability to hear and think completely, he can only chase Cai Cai, his brain is like a ball of mud, he can't say anything clearly, he can't hear anything, and he can only see Cai Cai.

How can it look so good?

Lu Keke was intoxicated by Cai Cai's beauty again.

The Immortal King coughed and looked at Cai Cai who was thinking, "Agree first and we'll talk later." Whether it succeeds or not, there is no need to delay the verbal agreement now.

  Cai Cai listened to the Immortal Lord, just to make the old man happy. Mainly because she felt that she should not have any time. Jarvis and Fang Xiaoning are waiting for her to come of age before using their big moves.

"Okay." Cai Cai said simply. Mei Zhang wrote down this outside the door and looked up to see Lu Keke's assistants who were also writing down something. After confirming that no one was filming, Mei Zhang left it alone.

Lu Keke was very confident in her project and didn't think that she would be rejected by Cai Cai, so she smiled and was intoxicated by Cai Cai's beauty again.

Xianjun had to call in the assistant director and producer from outside, otherwise there would be no hope for Lu Keke, whose heart was focused on her film project. He brought Cai Cai here with a death gaze on the people of the Tang family, not to let her come to be watched.

After the two assistant directors introduced themselves, there was no unnecessary words. One gave Cai Cai a page of the script, and the other told Cai Cai the purpose of inviting her here today.

There was a role, and after the actor who was originally found played a few scenes, he rose a little and looked down on this small role. But having fewer scenes does not mean it is really a small role.

"The character's name is Yuan Xin, and the name of the play is Yuan Xin. She is the soul of the whole play, from the beginning to the end, with a total of five appearances, all of which are effective. The actress in the main role suddenly made a condition, otherwise she would ask for leave." In fact, she just wanted to stop coming to the crew and stop acting, forcing the crew to fire her, and finally directly sued her and ordered liquidated damages. "This role was put aside. Director Lu also wondered whether to delete it and move the role to other people's lines, so that she would really become that kind of soul character."

This kind of character with a strong presence but no real person performance can be found in many film and television dramas. In fact, most of them are to save money and trouble, and no actors are found to fulfill the roles. This also makes it easier to change the script. After all, a character that only exists in the lines can only change the lines. There are also people who use this kind of character to do favors or support artists. There is no need to explain what doing favors means, and it is even simpler for artists. When an artist cannot take on the role of the whole book and does not want to pick his feet, and the company also wants to make money to promote the artist, they will look everywhere for this kind of soul role that can easily earn the audience's favor and attention for the artist to play. Generally, this kind of role is not difficult to play, the appearance is not bad, there are few or even no lines, and they can act with the main characters, and their scenes will not be deleted. They can stay as long as they play, so they are genuine and effective.

  Generally speaking, if you get this kind of role, it doesn't take much time, and generally very few artists regret it. Because the total shooting time is not long, there are no special lighting and location requirements, and it can be finished in one day. It is a good job with a short time, light tasks and high rewards. In this circle, it is a good job to regret it after getting such a good job.

Cai Cai herself had also made a cameo appearance, and although it wasn't to the extent of a soul character, it was still quite enjoyable. If she really didn't have enough time, and Jarvis and Fang Xiaoning were watching closely, she might have specifically targeted this kind of cameo work.

The Immortal Lord saw that Cai Cai was distracted and wanted to eat the melon, so there was nothing wrong with it. While the assistant director was talking, he cut the melon for Cai Cai to eat.

"She's an artist in the company. The role she played in a previous movie became popular, and she thinks she has some connections with the top management, so she wants to squeeze into Director Lu's film project. This is nothing. If she performs well, she may have opportunities in the future. But she probably has lost her mind and wants to raise the price and negotiate conditions." That is definitely not possible.

This circle is like this. If you say it is clean, it is really clean. If you want to be famous, you must have beauty, acting skills and ability, which is more difficult than any test. If you say it is not clean, you can use all kinds of crooked ways. There are many people who build platforms and ladders. As long as you don't break the law and are not afraid of scandals, the circle is so big that you can rise and fall at will.

People outside the industry like to say that a certain artist is willing to take risks, as if artists must be as high-minded and unconcerned about fame and fortune as fans envision. Things like fawning and kneeling down to investors behind their backs must be jokes, all black material, and all fake. Anyway, artists must take risks if they want to be famous. Those who are not famous, have poor resources and no projects just can't take risks. Fans like to say that my baby is too self-respecting and self-loving, and can't take risks, unlike so-and-so.

But in fact, in the final analysis, it's all the same, all the things in the workplace are the same. Because the entertainment industry is in front of the camera, it will be magnified and get more attention. But to be honest, many circles that Xianjun knows are more entertaining than the entertainment industry. Let's not talk about these.

Having said that, if an artist wants to be famous, he or she must be willing to risk everything. But most of the time, this risk is not the dirty risk that the outside world thinks. It is pure risk.

For example, Cai Cai gets easily carried away when filming a role, and doesn’t care about bleeding or getting hurt. This is risking everything. Another example is this artist who raises the price and negotiates conditions. Seeing that her popularity and popularity have reached a level she never thought of before, and who knows who has spread rumors in her ears, she has become arrogant. She must have known that it was stupid to threaten to strike during filming to get benefits, but she still did it. This is also a risking everything.

The brave ones will die. What if it works? With this thought in mind, she went all out and did it.

In this circle, many times, it's all about taking risks. If it works, you'll be promoted overnight; if it doesn't, you'll be like the artist now, called back by the company and hidden away under the pretext of training.

To be honest, there are many successful people like this artist who are willing to take risks. There are such stories in various interviews and celebrity anecdotes. Those successful artists talk about how they took risks in front of the camera, as if all their success is due to that one risk. This gives people outside the circle and even many artists in the circle a misconception that gold will hit people.

There seem to be examples in life where as long as you value yourself and risk your life to do something big, you will get benefits. The Internet is full of stories about brave people enjoying the world.

  Those who can be proudly said, and those who can be written to earn traffic and money are naturally successful. Those who are unsuccessful probably have no mouths and hands.

".No one talks about it, no one writes about it, so failure is naturally ignored by people subconsciously. People always tend to lean towards positive things." Xianjun muttered a lot to Cai Cai, just to let Cai Cai understand that there is actually no difference between being sober or not in the circle. "Did she lose her mind by doing this? In fact, she must have thought a lot and was definitely sober. Now she failed, so her brain is lost and she is not sober, but if she succeeds, she will be smart and sober."

After listening to the gossip, Cai Cai became a little impatient with the Immortal Lord's nagging. She felt that the Immortal Lord was becoming more and more long-winded. She nodded perfunctorily and said, "Ah, I know, I know. I'll remember, I'll remember."

The Immortal Lord nodded at Cai Cai's head and said, "I am just reminding you not to believe any comments from anyone. No matter if they are positive or negative, just ignore them."

  Cai Cai dodged the Immortal Lord's finger and said, "I didn't pay any attention to it either." She couldn't contact anyone.

Lu Keke didn't quite understand at first and thought it was the Immortal Lord imparting his experience to Cai Cai. Later, she realized that he was talking about Bian Yi.

At the ceremony, they all noticed that Bian Yi was very concerned about Cai Cai. If it weren't for the layers of protection around Cai Cai, even Bian Yi couldn't get close to her. Now the gossips all over the street might be very unpleasant. What a great director who values ​​the new generation of gods. It's really the way Bian Yi looks at Cai Cai. It's disgusting.

Lu Kewei thought that Xianjun was embarrassed because he was of the opposite sex and much older than Cai Cai, and Cai Cai was still so young, so it was difficult to speak directly to her, so he took the initiative to take it, "It's hard for him to say, I'll tell you. The guy we met before, Bian Yi, who started in Hong Kong, asked your family, right?"

As for Cai Cai's home, Lu Keke went home and searched it later, and was almost shocked. But it was also confirmed that Cai Cai's career ambition was real and not a joke. Otherwise, it would be absurd for the mysterious princess of Tang Clan to be an actress in her teens under an assumed name and be banned and move away. The only explanation is that Cai Cai really wants to be an actress seriously and act well. So she didn't say anything, just ate the melon quietly, and also searched for the romantic affairs of Bian Yi when she was young.

The problem is, no matter how hard I searched, I couldn't find any connection between him and the Tang Clan's female demons. But from Bian Yi's expression, he did know the Tang Clan's female demons. Based on Lu Keke's guess about men's bad nature, she felt that 99% of it was Bian Yi's unrequited love fantasy. Which poor boy hasn't dreamed of a rich lady loving him to death? Especially in Hong Kong at that time, there were indeed many combinations of poor boys and rich ladies. Seriously speaking, the Tang Clan was given the evil nickname of the Tang Clan by the Hong Kong media because of the Cai Clan's female demons, led by the great demon Cai Jinhui.

Back then, that empress-like figure, Cai Chunqing, also went south and married into the Tang family.

  Speaking of which, Lu Keke was her contemporary, but when she was still in school, that person was already famous. The head of Jinxiu Cai Garden. Even though the Cai family split up later and Cai Chunqing's branch fell into decline, in the eyes of the people in Hong Kong who always looked down on people from the south and north, she was still a high and unattainable moon.

According to official documents, the Cai family is an important part of the history of the textile industry. At one point, they dominated the industry. Their original dyeing and embroidery techniques are cultural treasures. Many museums now exhibit clothing and fabrics made by the Cai family. However, after combining with the Tang family, which is engaged in seafood shipping, the industry has become more diversified and is no longer specialized in textiles.

".I went home and looked through old photos and videos, and I really found that your elders and I had appeared in the same occasion." It's just that we were not in the same frame. We can't be in the same frame.
