China Entertainment’s Born Protagonist

Chapter 66 Preparations for the Crew
Yangshi's actions were really fast. In less than two days, the contract and procedures were drafted. Zhang Nanyi directly borrowed Yiwu Technology's legal services to help read the contract. After there was no problem, the contract was signed.

The "Legend of Sword and Fairy" project is officially launched. The producer is Zhang Jizong, the executive producer is Sun Ruixue, and Zhang Nanyi is the starring and screenwriter.

After Sun Ruixue got the script, she read it very carefully and said, "Mr. Zhang, your script is well written. I won't change the framework. There are just some details and dialogues that I want to polish up. Can you please take a look? .”

Of course Zhang Nanyi has no objection. The script he wrote is mainly plot and character setting, and some details can indeed be better.

Sun Ruixue said: "After I finish polishing the script, I will start applying for the project. I need to trouble you and Teacher Zhang Jizong to set up the crew here."

Sun Ruixue completely avoided suspicion and directly handed over the formation of the crew to Nanyi Culture, showing that Yangshi would not interfere.

Zhang Nanyi was very satisfied with this.

After talking about Yangshi's follow-up publicity plan, Sun Ruixue left with the contract.

Zhang Jizong then said: "Nan Yi, the crew must first finalize the director team, at least one director and two directors. If possible, they can find a few more people. This way, whether it is casting, makeup, special training, or filming, everything will be smoother. "

Zhang Jizong also spent half a year with Zhang Nanyi on the set of Tianlong Babu. He knew that Zhang Nanyi had a more upright idea and was a strong-willed person.

Therefore, in his contacts with Yangshi, he has always let Zhang Nanyi take charge, and this is also the case when setting up the crew this time.

Zhang Jizong did not take over everything, but positioned himself as a auxiliary.

Zhang Nanyi said: "Uncle, do you have any suitable director candidates? Can you recommend them?"

Zhang Jizong said: "I think Yu Min is good. He has directed the costume drama Blue Enchantress alone before, and he also filmed The Condor with me. This time, he also filmed a quarter of the literary dramas in Tian Long Ba Part. Experience gained.

The key is, Yu Min is easier to talk to than Zhou Xiaowen, and you are also the boss in the crew. It is best to be paired with a director with a softer personality.

Only in this way will your cooperation be good. "

When Zhang Jizong said this, he could see through Zhang Nanyi's true nature and made a realistic recommendation.

Zhang Nanyi nodded. Yu Min was indeed easy to talk to. When he and Zhang Nanyi were filming a drama on Peach Blossom Island, the two of them cooperated very well.

Zhang Nanyi also understands Yu Min's strengths. He is particularly good at shooting real scenes, and can integrate characters and plots into the natural environment to produce more beautiful effects.

However, the understanding of the characters themselves and the sorting out of the plot logic are relatively poor.

To put it simply, the pictures are beautiful, but the characters and plot are a bit weak. To put it this way, it looks a bit like Zhang Yimou...

Looking at it this way, Yu Min is indeed suitable to be the director of The Legend of Sword and Fairy. He can make the scenes of the Fairy Tale beautiful. As for the plot and character design, Zhang Nanyi is responsible for this, so there will be no problems.

Zhang Nanyi said: "Uncle, you have spoken. Of course I will listen to you. You can also recommend an action director. Zhao Jian and Yuan Bin are both fine. Uncle, please help me talk to them."

Zhang Jizong laughed. Although he knew that Zhang Nanyi listened to your polite words, he was still very happy.

Therefore, among relatives, you should praise those who deserve it. Zhang Jizong said grandly: "Just find Yuan Bin. Zhao Jian has accepted a movie, but there is no schedule."

Yuan Bin himself is also a senior figure in Hong Kong's martial arts. He is also known as the Seven Little Fortunes along with Cheng Long, Hong Jinbao and others. He has done martial arts design in classic movies, and later works such as "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate", "One Man's Martial Arts", and "Chasing the Dragon" were also produced by him.

In terms of martial arts ability, he is the best in the industry.

Yuan Bin also came to help during the filming of the martial arts scenes in Tian Long Ba Bu. Zhang Nanyi also knew him, but Zhang Ji Zong was obviously more familiar with him. After all, the action director of Swordsman is Yuan Bin.

With Zhang Ji Zong coming forward, the action director of Fairy Sword was also done.

Zhang Nanyi asked again: "Uncle, do you know director Lin Yufen? I have seen her director's stunning two-parter. The rhythm is very good and the emotional scenes are very delicate. I think it is good."

Zhang Jizong glanced at Zhang Nanyi in surprise and praised: "You have a very sharp eye and you watch a lot of movies.

I know Lin Yufen. She also graduated from the Yangtze River Drama Center. She is my junior sister. She is from Hong Kong and she spent some time at TVB before.I'll ask her if she has any schedule. "

Lin Yufen is one of the directors of Fairy Sword III. Later, she also filmed works such as Flowers of Thousand Bones and Bu Bu Jingxin. She is also a director who is good at shooting costume dramas and fairy tale dramas.

As a female director, she shoots emotional scenes more delicately, with good rhythm and tension.

At this time, she had not signed a contract with Tang Ren, so Zhang Nanyi was planning to find her as an assistant director.

If Lin Yufen is really free for Yangshi's big project and Fairy Sword's IP, Zhang Nanyi believes she won't refuse.

Zhang Nanyi planned to find four people for the directing team of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", and there were already three. He took the initiative to reserve the last spot for Yangshi.

Yangshi was so generous and had no involvement in the formation of the crew. Zhang Nanyi also had to learn to reciprocate the favor and let them send a director representative, at least in a formal way.

Otherwise, the so-called joint production will not be good if it cannot withstand scrutiny.

Zhang Jizong particularly agreed with Zhang Nanyi's idea. He sighed: "You have grown up too fast, and you are very mature in doing things. I am very relieved.

Li Dashan is also a very hard-working young man. Although he sometimes doesn't know how to adapt, he has a hard-working spirit and I will guide him well.

I will still take charge of setting up the crew this time, let Dashan learn from it, and let him come next time. "

Things with the directing team are going very smoothly.

When Yu Min heard that he was asked to be the director of Legend of Sword and Fairy, he was overjoyed and agreed repeatedly.

As for Yuan Bin and Lin Yufen, they happened to have schedules, so they came over together.

As for Yangshi, they have arranged for a female director. The director of their production department is a very accomplished and famous director, Yang Yang.

This director happens to be the director of "Meng Hua Lu", Liu Yifei's second work after returning to the TV drama circle more than ten years later.

At this time, Yang Yang had directed many well-known works such as Niu Yuqin's The Tree and Holding Hands, won the Golden Eagle Best Director, and was a judge of the Golden Eagle Awards. With Yangshi's backing, his status in the industry was not low.

Yangshi sent her to the Fairy Sword crew, which shows that it attaches great importance to this drama, and also reflects Chen Yingcai's mentality.

No matter what, Yangshi must get this co-production title.

Good thing he showed his face on it.

On February 2, Zhang Nanyi summoned all the directors for a meeting at Nanyi Culture’s office.

For convenience, Zhang Nanyi moved the office of Nanyi Culture to the 10th floor of Huateng Building, which is on the same floor as Yiwu Technology.

In the conference room, Zhang Nanyi saw Yang Yang for the first time.

He was originally worried that Yang Yang's attitude would be bad. After all, coming to the Fairy Sword crew was a special mission from Taili, and he came to be an assistant director to help Yu Min, who was less famous and status than himself. It was normal to have some ideas.

Unexpectedly, Yang Yang was very polite. She took the initiative to shake hands with Zhang Nanyi and said with a smile: "Teacher Zhang, your script is very well written, I like it very much.

I hope we can cooperate happily. "

Lin Yufen also said: "Yes, this script jumps out of the category of small love, and contains both the pathos of fate and reincarnation and the great justice of God's love for the world.

I like it too. "

The two female directors looked at each other and smiled, feeling like they were matched.
