Chapter 41

"This small city is really interesting."

A week later, in the old town of Zhanjiang, several people with foreign accents were sitting around a table, sweating profusely after eating.

Le Zehan had the most enjoyable meal!

The palm-sized oyster opened its shell, revealing the steaming, plump and tender oyster meat. He opened his mouth directly, sipped the juice that could feel the freshness of the ocean, and then turned over the shell. The hanging oyster meat is sucked into the mouth.

It is not enough to eat the oyster meat, the scallop-shaped meat that is still tightly grasped on the oyster shell must be snapped off with your hands and eaten!
The softness and fatness of the oysters and the firmness and chewiness of the oyster feet form a sharp contrast, but each has its own delicious taste, which makes the eater excited and unable to stop.

"When I went to Hainan in the past, I basically took a direct flight. I didn't know there was a place like Zhanjiang, and I didn't know there were so many delicious food here! Thank you, director, for letting me gain knowledge!"

Le Zehan opened another oyster and handed it to Yang Yi with a smile.

This was not a courtesy, Le Zehan was just joking with Yang Yi.

In the past week, because they had to write a business plan and prepare materials to start a company in preparation for the subsequent project establishment work, Le Zehan, Yang Yi, Ye Fuming, and Liao Chunsheng, who also rushed to the capital, worked almost every day gather together.This allowed them to get to know each other thoroughly and become good friends.

It is worth mentioning that under Le Zehan's supervision, the preparation progress of the "Hidden Corner" crew was completed very quickly!

Not only is the regularization process for the crew nearly complete, but the crew, camera crew, recording crew, art crew (Fu Hua Dao, etc.) have all found members that satisfy Yang Yi!

Today, I came to Zhanjiang for a scene survey. Nie Yuchen, who was in charge of the photography team, Zhang Jiajun and Su Qianru, who were in charge of the art team, all followed.

What makes Yang Yi even more satisfied is that with Le Zehan's coordination, he can be freed from the heavy chores. In addition to providing some crew information, interviewing new crew members, and auditioning the remaining actors, Yang Yi still had plenty of time to draw his storyboards.

Of course, there is also one imperfection, that is, Zhu Jingjing's actor has not yet found a suitable candidate.

Liao Chunsheng contacted some casting studios in Beijing that specialize in helping to find actors (extras), but found a group of young actors who had acted in plays to audition.

But it was similar to the situation they had encountered before. Many parents brought their children over, and after reading the script and knowing what kind of character Zhu Jingjing was, they immediately backed down.

Although Yang Yi didn't hear anyone scolding him anymore because he no longer needed to make phone calls in person, he also knew that Zhu Jingjing's unruly image and the plot of falling to death from upstairs had deterred many parents.

The remaining parents and children who are still willing to continue auditioning are certainly respectable, but after Yang Yi watched it, their acting skills were still a bit lacking, and they failed to perform Zhu Jingjing's abhorrent state.

After all, most little girls at this age are very cute. Even if they want to play bad boys, it is hard for people to believe that they are so bad with their beautiful little faces and big smiling eyes.

"Don't worry, keep looking, we still have time."

Yang Yi didn't want to be perfunctory and insisted on finding a suitable actor.

However, the search for the actor "Zhu Jingjing" has to be put aside for the time being, because after the funds are in place, Le Zehan has arranged the more important location scouting work.

It is a multi-pronged approach. After other members of the crew figure out where and how their scripts will be shot, they can confirm the start time and shooting schedule as soon as possible. This also makes it easier for other actors to arrange their time to avoid schedule conflicts. .

So, now they have come to Zhanjiang, Guangdong!
"Zehan, use a knife to pick it up. Don't break it off with your hands. I'm so scared when I look at it. I feel like your hand will be scratched and bleed in the next second!"

Yang Yi brought the oysters over politely, but he didn't eat them directly like Le Zehan. He poured the delicious juice into the big bowl in front of him, then took out the oysters and placed them on the bowl of seafood noodles. The plump white oysters are in sharp contrast to the other fried shrimps, crabs and clams that are full of sauce.

"Brother Yi, the way you eat it is a waste of money! The oysters are delicious in their original flavor, and they are mixed with fried noodles!"

Le Zehan shouted.

"Oysters are not only original. I see there are many other flavors on the menu. Do you want to try other flavors like garlic, lemon and orange peel, and cheese?"

Liao Chunsheng picked up the menu next to him and smiled.

"The original flavor is still delicious. Have you ever seen someone on the Internet go directly to the beach with a spray gun to grill oysters? They are grilled and eaten directly on the rocks."

Le Zehan advocates the original flavor of ingredients.

"I don't want to eat it with the fried noodles. Let's take a photo first."

Yang Yi smiled and took out his mobile phone and took a photo of his bowl of seafood noodles.

"Why are you taking pictures? Brother Yi, don't you never post on Moments?"

Le Zehan was a little surprised.

"Is Brother Yi planning to use this shot in "The Hidden Corner"?"

Liao Chunsheng was thoughtful, and he also took out his mobile phone and took a photo of Yang Yi's bowl.

Yang Yi was sending a wechat message with his mobile phone with a smile, he didn't hear what they were saying at all, but he caught a casual glimpse of a mobile phone stretched out in front of him from the corner of his eye.

"Chunsheng, why are you taking pictures of my bowl? Didn't you also order seafood lo mein?"

Yang Yi raised his head in confusion.

"Record it, brother Yi, are you going to film this bowl of noodles in the movie?"

Liao Chunsheng added the photo just now to the memo on his phone.

He is the assistant director.At first, Liao Chunsheng thought his job was just to help Yang Yi contact actors and do odd jobs, but Le Zehan told him that he, as the assistant director, was very important!
The director needs to focus on shooting and communicating with the actors. Other detailed tasks such as shooting schedules, work schedules for each group, and summary of shooting records must be shared by the assistant director.

Like this time for on-site scouting, Liao Chunsheng can't just come with a group to travel, he is also responsible for investigating other content, such as whether there is any place in the surrounding area that can be provided for the production department to work, or for the actors, in addition to the filming location. Rest, put on makeup, do your hair, change clothes.

Professionally, this place is called "Waiting Field"!
For example, as Yang Yi told them before, there is a food stall next to the mouth of the old water well, which can be used as the location for the breakfast stall where Yan Liang and Zhang Jinglin meet in the first episode. Then Liao Chunsheng has to consider it. Where can be used as a waiting place.

Is it the fast food restaurant across the street?Or the surrounding houses?
In addition, Liao Chunsheng also recorded Yang Yi's communication with the photographer and art team to ensure that the content of these communications can appear in the follow-up work plan.

However, he thought too much this time.

"My taking pictures has nothing to do with filming. I took pictures of this bowl of noodles and sent them to my daughter-in-law."

Yang Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Just as he was talking about his wife, Yang Yi's cell phone suddenly rang a song, and it was Li Mengfei calling over for video chat!
"I'll answer the phone!"

Yang Yi quickly stood up, took the phone and walked aside to pick it up.

"Brother Yi, is he married?"

Just as Le Zehan was about to ask, Yang Yi walked away, and he had no choice but to look at Liao Chunsheng and Ye Fuming.

Not only Le Zehan, but also Nie Yuchen, Su Qianru, and other unknowing crew members were all curiously waiting for Liao Chunsheng's answer.

Liao Chunsheng didn't want to say it at first, but Ye Fuming and Zhang Jiajun both looked at him with smiles and pushed him out.

"Yes, didn't he just say that he would send it to his wife?"

Liao Chunsheng nodded.

Anyway, this is what Yang Yi himself said, he didn't leak the secret.

"How is Director Yang's wife? Is she good-looking? Is she an insider?"

Su Qianru asked gossipily.

"I really don't know about this. Brother Yi is very mysterious. I have never seen what his wife looks like. If you don't believe me, ask Brother Ye."

Liao Chunsheng threw the pot at Ye Fuming.

"Yes, I haven't seen it."

Ye Fuming didn't have any emotion on his face. As expected of an old actor, his acting was flawless.

Yang Yi told Li Mengfei about his coming to Zhanjiang.

Not only did he come to Zhanjiang, Yang Yi asked Hengyuan Entertainment's lawyer Fan Jingping to help him prepare the materials to start a company, and he also explained to his wife.

However, Li Mengfei only knew that Yang Yi had an investment. He had told her before when he showed her the royalties.She didn't know that Yang Yi was going to make such a big battle to make a TV series. Yang Yi said that he would give her a surprise when the time came, so Li Mengfei didn't ask any questions.

It didn't seem to matter to Li Mengfei whether she knew it or not.

She has a lazy personality that does more than does less. Except for filming, which allows her to go all out, other things in front of her are like someone teasing in front of an aloof cat. She can't make a single ripple at all. .

Yang Yi kept it secret for the time being, which means that there is a reason for him to keep it secret. Li Mengfei didn't ask, but just waited for the surprise he promised.

"Why did you call me suddenly? They almost saw it."

After Yang Yi answered the video call, he turned the camera and gave his wife a look at the members of their team.

It seems that Le Zehan and the others also noticed the mobile phone raised by Yang Yi, and raised their hands to wave to him, wanting to say hello to his sister-in-law.

"Hey, Big Brother Ye is here too! Actually, it's not me who wants to make a video call to you, it's Little Mousse, she insists on seeing Uncle Xiaoyi."

Li Mengfei turned the phone around with a smile, and a cute little face appeared on the screen.

However, Xiao Mousi's eyes were a little confused.

"Where's Uncle Xiaoyi?"

"Oh, I didn't turn the camera around."

Yang Yi turned the camera around, and this time Xiao Mousi saw him, and her big round eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hee hee, Uncle Xiao Yi!"

Little Mousse just yelled crisply, but didn't say a word, just looked at him with wide eyes.

Not all four-year-olds are as talkative as those Sheniu kids in the short video. After Little Mousse fulfilled her wish of "watching Uncle Xiaoyi", she didn't know what to say.
