Director Loves No One
Chapter 12:
It is very common for the crew to visit the crew. Producers come to inspect the work status and check the finished material. After Song Wenye got the news, he originally wanted to send Xia Hong over, but his friends were reluctant.
Xia Hong sighed and said: "Going to the crew again? I almost got stuck on the road last time. Anyway, I have taken you there once, can't you go by yourself?"
Xia Hong is actually not interested in the crew. There is a messy shooting environment, all kinds of equipment and tracks are everywhere, and the working atmosphere of everyone in the high temperature is also slightly tight. He is a spoiled elder brother, and he is okay to wander around in novelty occasionally. It is equally uncomfortable to always get stuck inside, and he always feels unable to breathe.
Song Wenye said lightly: "You are the company..."
Xia Hong: "Don't come here! I'm looking at the stall for you, and I did have something that day, I have to accompany my dad to dinner."
Xia Hong is usually not serious, but he doesn't dare to mess around with his father. Song Wenye couldn't persuade him again when he saw it. He knew that Xia Hong used to look very idle, but he could never defy Uncle Xia.
Song Wenye thought that the most recent project came to an end, only then let the trail: "Well, I will go by myself."
Xia Hong gloated and said, "Then I'll be trapped for another three million? I don't dare to visit the class with you again. The first time I took you there, I spent a lot of money, and the company's accounts can't bear it!"
Xia Hong deliberately made fun of Song Wenye’s absurd behavior. Song Wenye didn’t know what he had talked about with Chu Xiaxing. Not only did he hand-picked her inexperienced to be her director, but he also added a budget of 300 yuan to Xia Hong’s surprise. .
Of course, Xia Hong didn't complain too much. The original purpose of this play was to "help the girl regain her career." So it didn't matter which position Chu Xiaxing took. They didn't intend to earn back the production cost.
Song Wenye said slowly and rationally: "She is really knowledgeable, I communicated with her..."
Xia Hong: "Yes, yes, you know, you have the best investment vision! I feel that you are like a fool above, and I will not be surprised if you do anything later."
"I can tell you, you take out three hundred now, three thousand in the future, and three hundred million in the back. This is an old routine!" Xia Hong hates the iron failure, "I see you are in the group Very smart and powerful, why don’t you get your head on the crew?"
If it weren't for Xia Hong to know the origins of Song Wenye and Chu Xiaxing, he would suspect that his friend had fallen in love with him, and would be completely irrational.
Song Wenye couldn’t mention that he did talk about three hundred million. He was frantically teased by his friends and whispered: "You have a lot of words. If I meet Uncle Xia recently, I will definitely talk to him about your purchase. New car."
Xia Hong: "...I beg you to be a man!?"
In the crew, Chu Xiaxing and others have received news that Song Wenye will visit the squad. Han Chuning and Song always have a relationship. She learns the true identity of the other party and is busy and surprised: "Auntie, you said he was holding the contract. The person!? Isn't he just..."
Chu Xiaxing lazily said: "I now hope that he is really the gold master, so it doesn't take much effort to ask for money, but it doesn't seem to be a pity."
Chu Xiaxing: If this is a really generous funder, you don't need to go through the form of defrauding money, just ask for it.
She discovered last time that Song Wenye didn't seem to have seen Chu Xiaxin either. Although she didn't know why the other party bought the contract, there seemed to be no unbearable financial relationship between the two.
Han Chuning said helplessly: "...We don't have to do this for hundreds of people, it's not that we don't have it at home."
Chu Xiaxing plausibly said: "Are you kidding me! When did I spend my family's money on filming? If I don't spend other people's money, I can still be called a director!?"
Han Chuning was unable to complain for a while. Auntie had a lot of inexplicable persistence and rules. For example, he didn't use the money at home to film a movie, thinking it was an unprofessional attitude.
Chu Xiaxing enjoys the state of being in the crew very much, and even feels a little bit of fun in it. Since the other party's health is not good and unable to film, Han Chuning has rarely seen her such an uplifting mental outlook, and now he has nothing to say. She can only let her go.
A few days later, Song Wenye arrived at the crew as scheduled. He was dressed more casually this time, and arrived on the set alone without even disturbing the staff. Song Wenye had already found today's filming location, and assistant Li Jing rushed to report the news, and said in a panic: "Sister, sister, Mr. Song is here!"
Chu Xiaxing immediately put down the walkie-talkie, she couldn't help being quite surprised: "Didn't you say hello to me before picking up someone?"
Li Jing said weakly: "He didn't tell us a word, but he found it by himself..."
Chu Xiaxing: "..." Okay, it turned out to be a producer of microservices private interviews, who likes to be caught off guard!
Chu Xiaxing has not had much contact with Song Wenye, but she has gradually figured out the other's personality. This person has always been calm and low-key, and speaks modestly and measuredly. He belongs to the hidden type and pays more attention to the effectiveness of work. .
He arrived at the crew silently, probably not wanting to disturb the crew's progress, but if he didn't bother, how could she ask for money!
Chu Xiaxing's thoughts turned slightly, she immediately put on a business smile, talked to Song Wenye who was oncoming, politely said: "Ms. Song, why don't you let them pick you up?"
Song Wenye walked into the set. He looked around the busy scene and whispered, "You all have shooting tasks. It's not easy to interrupt the formal work."
Chu Xiaxing smiled and said: "How can this be called interruption? Reception leadership is also one of the work of the crew."
Song Wenye looked at her bright smile, he had a subtle foreboding inexplicably, he always felt that something was wrong: "..."
Song Wenye hesitated: "...When I first met you, you didn't seem to have this kind of personality?"
Han Chuning squatted honestly in the corner and did not say anything. Of course, she wanted money and didn't want money. Of course, they were two personalities. This was also the outstanding professionalism of the Chu leader, and she would never let Party A lose out.
Chu Xiaxing took Song Wenye into the director's booth. As soon as the people around saw President Song's appearance, they all stood up and dared not sit in chairs anymore. The director of photography greeted enthusiastically: "Mr. Song, come here, come and sit here!"
Song Wenye saw such a big welcome battle, he quickly politely declined: "It's okay, I will stand for a while, you are busy with your..."
How could Chu Xiaxing know Song Wenye’s unwillingness to disturb her character, she led him to the director’s chair, put her hands on the opponent’s shoulders gently, and directly pushed him into the director’s chair, and said with a smile: If you can sit in that chair, Song always sits in the director's chair!"
Song Wenye sat in the director's chair unexpectedly, and felt everyone's gaze in the next second. He found that Chu Xiaxing's actions were like hints. The crew all looked at him, their attitudes changed suddenly, and someone suddenly took the lead and shouted.
"Good leadership! Good boss!"
"Welcome the leaders to check the work!"
"Welcome Mr. Song to come to the crew to explore the class!"
Not everyone in the crew knows Song Wenye, but they know who is at the top of the food chain when they see who the director Chu takes the initiative to give way. Everyone immediately said hello sensibly, like a well-trained army, their voices were extremely loud!
Song Wenye had never seen such scenes before, and was a little dazed: "..."
Song Wenye was silent for a moment, and finally he couldn't help looking at Chu Xiaxing who was smiling, and said frankly: "...I know what it is like sitting on pins and needles for the first time today."
Song Wenye: Where is the director's chair? This is simply sitting in an electric chair, and it is a public execution.
Chu Xiaxing: "Mr Song said and laughed."
Song Wenye was greeted by the crew with a smile, and felt that he was a bit high-profile, and immediately embarrassed: "I'll buy you some cold drinks, you have worked hard at high temperatures."
Song Wenye thinks that his arrival is of no help to the crew. He didn't know much about film and television production. Now being held by the staff, he naturally has a feeling of chaos. He is held in the group because he has the ability to work and he can contribute to the team, but he can't afford to help the crew too much now.
Chu Xiaxing didn't give him a chance to make up. She immediately took the walkie-talkie to speak and enthusiastically informed: "Mr Song said that everyone has worked hard. Today he will buy water for the crew."
"Thank Mr. Song! Thank you boss!"
"The boss has worked hard! We are not working hard!"
"Thank you for visiting the class!"
In the next second, the crew was filled with thankful voices one after another. It felt like a live broadcast of a rocket. I can’t wait to see the "boss atmosphere" drifting across the screen. The atmosphere is quite warm!
Song Wenye: "..."
Song Wenye hadn't bought water for the crew, and was madly thanked again. He gently pursed his lips and looked suspiciously at Chu Xiaxing: "...Did you mean it?"
He feels that he will come to the crew to visit the crew for another person.
Chu Xiaxing pretended to be innocent: "What? Mr. Song specializes in buying water, everyone is happy."
Song Wenye couldn't grasp her handle for a while, so she had no choice but to find someone to help buy water. He also deliberately selects more expensive cold drinks, so that the production team buys and ships them in boxes, and spends the money without blinking. When Chu Xiaxing saw it, she became more certain of Song's personality characteristics. This person is not afraid of spending more money, but is afraid of taking too much favor, and will definitely find ways to repay it.
Song Wenye is a very serious and good person, so dealing with good people is very easy, not difficult at all.
The daily filming of the crew is actually quite boring, and Song Wenye gradually became more comfortable after experiencing the initial crazy welcome. He looked at the sweaty staff on the side and asked: "When are you going to shoot today?"
Chu Xia Xing glanced at the notice and said calmly: "I receive it a little earlier today, and it can be completed at 7 or 8 o'clock. There is no need to shoot night scenes."
Song Wenye: "How late does night drama usually take?"
Chu Xiaxing: "It's better at two or three in the morning. It may be overnight if it's not going well."
Song Wenye: "...Can you stand it for a long time like this?" The crew does not have a day off, so if you count it, they sleep for five or six hours a day, and many people do heavy physical work.
Chu Xiaxing said amusedly: "Mr. Song, after the crew is set up, it costs money if it doesn't film. The shooting time can be said to be directly linked to money."
Song Wenye: "What if I get sick?"
Chu Xiaxing: "If you can't support it, then you will be replaced. There will always be someone on the bench. Large crews have money and flexibility, and small crews basically rely on support."
Song Wenye: "..."
Seeing that he was not speaking, Chu Xia turned her head to look at him, and smiled: "Why is this expression? Song is not always a little disappointed. He thought that everyone was doing art, but they were actually working tiredly?"
Song Wenye pondered for a few seconds, and couldn't help asking, "What are the working hours of this crew?"
Chu Xiaxing knew that he had taken the bait, and said frankly: "Recently, the shooting is still normal, but I have to save money and catch up with a few big shows later. I also have to spin for several days..."
Song Wenye: "How much money does the big show cost? In fact, the budget can be discussed, but don't push the people in the group too hard. Team stability is the most important thing."
Song Wenye witnessed the crew's day. Of course, he felt the terrible workload. Although the staff greeted vigorously, they basically had no time to stop. The few breaks were the transition time. Everyone was embarrassed by the heat in the scorching summer, and they often sat on the side of the road tiredly without saying a word, looking languid.
Even if Song Wenye was sitting in the best director's booth, he could still feel the heat hitting people and gradually sweating on his back, not to mention other people.
Chu Xiaxing’s miserable selling tactics were successful, and she didn’t shirk immediately, she said without a word, “Call the production director and let him report to Song Zong! Song Zongyuan thanked you for your hard work and said that you can increase your budget!”
Song Wenye: "?" I clearly said that I can talk about it again. Why is it that the budget has been added?
When the production director heard the news, he jumped over in a hurry, as if afraid that Song Wenye would regret it. He slapped up the flattery first, and then began to say pitifully: "Great, great, Mr. Song. Really understand. I was afraid that everyone would not be able to hold it back. There are not many producers like you who take care of the staff..."
Song Wenye: "..." How do you feel that you are not acting, but you all look like old actors?
Chu Xiaxing succeeded with a single blow, and she was a little bit tighter, and then she kept on saying: "Mr. Song, do you feel a little empty when you look at the screen on the monitor?"
Song Wenye had just finished entanglement with the crying production director, and finalized the additional budget for the crew. He looked at the monitor blankly when he heard the words, and said in doubt: "Where? I don't quite understand the picture."
Chu Xiaxing made gestures on the shooting screen, and she said plausibly: "Is it possible to add something to the scene here?"
Song Wenye: "It seems to be a little empty."
Chu Xiaxing touched her chin, and pointed out: "I originally felt empty, but the scene felt too expensive, so I didn't add..."
When Song Wenye faced her crazy hint, how could he not understand the meaning: "..."
Song Wenye thought about the various experiences in the crew, he finally couldn't help but look at Chu Xiaxing, and asked jokingly: "...Am I looking like a bully?"
