China Entertainment Times

Chapter 13

The time came to mid-June, and all the scenes of the movie "Shark Beach" ended, leaving only the last few aerial shots.

Tang An borrowed a hot air balloon and a pilot from a nearby beach scenic spot.

Originally, the aerial photography could be taken directly with a drone equipped with a camera, but he only brought some basic equipment from Hengdian, and he did not dare to take any higher-end equipment.

After all, his relationship with Xu Jinglai and Jiang Wen is not that deep yet, and a drone costs tens of thousands of dollars. If it falls into the water, he has no money to pay for a camera.

Among the things he borrowed, the most valuable thing is probably the Changhe van. This car is very strong, and it can't be broken no matter how much you go up and down.

In order to save money, he even uses digital cameras!

There is no way, although he has reduced unnecessary shots as much as possible, but he has no money to buy film.

The film is counted as cheap, 36 sheets per roll, 24 frames per roll, 1.5 seconds per roll, at least five or six yuan, so it is 4 yuan per second, rounded up.

90 minutes, 5400 seconds, but also 21600 yuan.

Coupled with Yang Mi's acting skills, the success rate is less than 10%.

This is 26 yuan.

Including the extra lenses that are not used in post-production, the price will double.

Not to mention the printing and post-production of film, it is simply unaffordable.

Digital cameras are much simpler, and post-production is also convenient, but the image quality is slightly worse and there is no graininess.

However, it is difficult for ordinary audiences to tell the difference between the two, coupled with professional post-production, the effect does not need to be inferior to film.

Aerial photography is very simple, Tang An took two casually, and the faces could not be seen clearly on the big screen, it just played a role in setting off the atmosphere of the environment.

After saving the last shot, Tang An showed a hint of relief in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his tired face.

Tang An shouted towards the empty beach with a loudspeaker, "I announce that "Shark Beach" is finished!"

"It's finished!" Yang Mi also shouted beside him, it's really enough to soak in the water for a while.

"Let's go, go back and clean up, have a good meal tonight, sleep well, and send you back to Hengdian early tomorrow morning!"

Tang An greeted and began to pack his things.

In the evening, Tang An took out 50 yuan from the remaining funds to ask the old village chief to buy some delicious dishes, and the table was full of chicken, duck and fish.

"Miss Xu, Mi Mi, thank you for your hard work this time, thank you for your help, thank you!"

After Tang An finished speaking, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"Director Tang is too polite, you are the one who has worked the hardest for more than a month!"

Xu Manyun followed suit, and looked at Tang An with admiration.

Alone, without hiring a single staff member, he shot a feature-length film!

Regardless of the quality of the movie, Xu Manyun believes that Tang An's future is absolutely limitless based on this ability alone.

"Director, you demonstrated and taught me how to shoot every scene over and over again, and I would like to offer you a toast!"

Immediately afterwards, Yang Mi also drank a cup of Coke.

Continuously shooting for more than 40 days, under Tang An's high demands, Yang Mi could clearly feel that his performance became more and more natural. In the past, the scenes in TV dramas could be performed with ease without any adjustments.

Of course she knew that this was due to Tang An's patient guidance. At first, she almost imitated Tang An's movements.

"The wrap-up banquet will be just for now. After the movie is released, I will hold a celebration banquet in a five-star hotel. It will definitely satisfy you!"

"Then I wish Director Tang's movie a big hit in advance!" Xu Manyun laughed.

"Then am I going to become a big star? Like Zhou Xun!" Yang Mi said with hope.

"Of course, be prepared to be followed by reporters!" Tang An said with a smile.

"Hee hee hee~~"

The little girl giggled twice, immersed in the fantasy of being famous and unable to extricate herself.

A dinner between a man and two women will not last long, and it will be over after half an hour.

Before going to bed, Tang An went to check if the car was locked. It contained all his belongings, including the CDs that stored movies.

Vaguely seeing a figure in the yard, Tang An was almost taken aback, and he breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the figure clearly.

"Miss Xu, what are you thinking about staying up so late?"

Xu Manyun was startled by the sudden voice, turned around and saw that it was Tang An, and patted his chest lightly, "Ah, it's Director Tang!"

"Miss Xu can't sleep?"

Tang An pulled the car door and made sure that the glass windows on all sides were up before he was relieved.

Xu Manyun glanced at the van and asked with a smile, "Isn't Director Tang worried about these devices?"

Tang An sighed, "That's all I have, so what if I don't look good!"

Xu Manyun walked into the two departments, staring at Tang An, with a flash of curiosity in his eyes, "Actually, I have always wanted to ask Director Tang a question."

Tang An spread his hands, "Miss Xu just say it."

"Director Tang must have spent all his savings on this movie, right?"

"How to say?"

"These equipment are the most common style, a little old, and I think Director Tang's clothes are also very common, and he should not be very rich, or even the makeup artist will have to be replaced by me!" Xu Manyun covered his mouth and smiled.

Tang An, who had been exposed, was not at all embarrassed. He said frankly, "Funds are tight, Miss Xu, please forgive me. I will make up for your salary after the movie is released!"

"However, the filming of the film has been successfully completed, and the next step is to wait for the post-production!"

When he said this, Tang An concealed an undisguised smile. His first movie after returning was finally almost finished.

"Director Tang is so confident that he put all his wealth on this movie?"

"Of course, if you don't even have confidence in yourself, you can imagine what you will shoot!"

"Then what if the movie loses money in the end?"

"Then start over from the beginning, youth is the capital, I can afford to fail!" Tang An said without thinking.

Hearing this, Xu Manyun's eyes flashed with sadness, and he lowered his head slightly.

Tang An was keenly aware of her abnormality, "Miss Xu has something on her mind?"

"Ugh!"

"When Mr. Li came here, he asked me to prepare well. I will hand over work to Zhou Jia at the end of this year. From now on, I will only be Mi Mi's second manager!" Xu Manyun sighed and said dejectedly.

"So you're becoming an assistant?"

"Almost!" Xu Manyun brushed her hair and shook her head helplessly.

"The assistant is also very good. When Mimi becomes a big star in the future, you as an assistant will also rise to the top!"

Tang An could only comfort her like this.

"The assistant is also very good. When Mimi becomes a big star in the future, you as an assistant will also rise to the top!"

Tang An could only comfort her like this.
