The straight man of steel in the entertainment industry

The curtains have a good light-shielding effect. Only the front of the single light in the room is bright, and other places are already very dark.

"Do you have a brown background wall?" Lin Li asked.

"Have."

After Niu Zheng finished speaking, he went up and put away the white background wall. Behind it was green, orange, and then brown.

Lin Li adjusted the position of the light, brought a large shading board and placed it not far in front of the light to block part of the light, and suddenly the brown wall was partly covered by the shadow.

Lin Li compared his hands, and then said to Niu Zheng, "Just shoot here."

Niu Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and realized that Lin Li had been doing this for so long, all because he was working as a photographer?

Niu Zheng brought the camera and compared it with the position Lin Li had mentioned. He was a little startled. Lin Li seemed to be fiddling with something casually. From the camera, it was full of composition and lighting design. The steps all make sense.

"I, I can do it." Niu Zheng said, and suddenly had a glimmer of expectation for the shooting.

Lin Li walked into the shooting area and stopped about two meters in front of the wall.

However, Lin Li didn't turn around, but turned his head slightly, and just stood there.

Niu Zheng was still waiting for Lin Li to turn around and take a picture of his face, but Lin Li just stood there.

"Lin Li, don't you turn around?" Hou Haisen asked in surprise.

Even Song Wenjie was a little strange, her son had also done a cover shoot before, so it's not like he didn't understand this.

Lin Li smiled and said, "Just shoot like this, I won't turn around."

Niu Zheng: ""

Hou Haisen: ""

Song Wenjie: ""

They didn't expect that after Lin Li had been messing around for a long time, he wanted to take a picture of his back!

Chapter 313 Why are you acting like a bitch!

The magazine cover has always been a place where celebrities compete for beauty. They all dress themselves up very delicately, wearing all kinds of clothes that they think are majestic and beautiful. No one has ever photographed a magazine cover without showing their faces.

If you only want to take a picture of the back, what do you want the celebrity to do, isn't it just for the face of the celebrity!

Only then did Song Wenjie understand why Lin Li said last night that the weight of the clothes was not important, and even the person was not important.

The stylist also understood why Lin Li didn't want to do the front, but cared about the back hairstyle. It turned out that this guy wanted to pat the back!

It really is Lin Li, a star who cannot be judged by common sense.

Hou Haisen said: "This is not good!"

Niu Zheng held the camera and glanced at Lin Li's back. This was a normal centered composition, nothing special, but Lin Li's back suddenly became very special under the camera. The colors in it suddenly became fantastic.

It seems that there is white in black, there is black in a hundred miles, black is black and white, and it is impossible to tell the truth from the false.

There is no feeling of dead silence at all.

The most eye-catching thing was the red headband on Lin Li's head, and the tailband left behind the headband stretched from Lin Li's black hair to his neck, as if there was a bloodstain on his head!

Turning on the light, seeing Lin Li's sharp side face, he suddenly looked like a brave warrior, with his head broken and bleeding, but he still stood proudly!

This photo is so special that Niu Zheng couldn't help but press the shutter.

"Crack."

Niu Zheng took the picture, looked at Hou Haisen, and said, "Why don't we look at the picture first?"

Just now Hou Haisen wanted Lin Li to give up this idea of ​​modeling and taking pictures of the back, but at this moment he heard that Niu Zheng had already taken the picture, so he resisted to follow Niu Zheng to look at the photos he had taken.

Niu Zheng connected the camera to the computer, and put the photos he just took on the computer to look at them.

The photos are very three-dimensional, the colors are simple but not monotonous, and everything in the picture seems to echo each other.

In the picture, Lin Li's back is a little arrogant and lonely, the red headband is very dazzling, like a bloodstain, making Lin Li's back look a little more tragic.

Niu Zheng took a deep breath and couldn't help but praise: "Good!"

Niu Zheng just praised it from the perspective of a photographer.

But Song Wenjie and Hou Haisen are different.

Song Wenjie also thinks it's pretty good, but celebrities want exposure on the cover of magazines, isn't it the same as not showing their faces!

It's not that other people have never thought about taking pictures of their backs on the cover, but no celebrities are willing to cooperate. Showing their faces is the most basic appeal for celebrities to appear on the covers of magazines.

"This one is pretty good, but isn't it better to take a frontal photo?" Song Wenjie said, hoping that Lin Li could try a frontal photo. If the effect is good, Song Wenjie naturally hopes to use a frontal photo for the cover.

Lin Li looked at the photo and said, "No, I'll just use this one, don't worry about it anymore."

Hearing what Lin Li said, Niu Zheng looked at Hou Haisen, wanting to see Hou Haisen's attitude.

Hou Haisen also likes this photo very much, but he has never seen a magazine cover that shows his face, so he is a little uncertain.

Hou Haisen had a hesitant face on his face, so don't agree. As I said before, Lin Li decided on the cover, and I have no reason to object, not to mention that the photo is really good.

But agree, Hou Haisen also thinks it's a bit of a joke to use a back photo as the cover, this is the cover of the New Year's issue!

Lin Li seemed to see Hou Haisen's entanglement, and said, "Editor Hou, I know what you are afraid of. You are afraid that this cover will be released, and bad reviews from the outside world will affect your magazine's sales, right?"

Hou Haisen gave a wry smile and acquiesced.

First-tier magazines rely on the sponsorship of big brands, not on sales volume, while second- and third-tier magazines like Boy Idol, although they also have a large proportion of advertisements, are still different from first-tier magazines.

First-tier magazines, after word-of-mouth is established, are important to maintain the high-end image of the magazine and to highlight the strength and taste of the magazine when choosing the cover of the magazine, while second- and third-tier magazines, although these must also be taken into account, but these are not the most fundamental. For second- and third-tier magazines, the most fundamental thing is sales.

The first-tier magazines have brand sponsorship when they have word-of-mouth, while the second- and third-tier magazines only have advertisements when they have sales, which is still different.

Second-tier and third-tier magazines are all focused on sales, because only with sales, advertising costs will rise. Only after the magazine has money can it be possible to turn the magazine into a first-tier magazine.

The cover of the New Year's issue invites a faceless celebrity. Hou Haisen has never heard of it after so many years of work.

Seeing Hou Haisen's acquiescence, Lin Li said: "Editor Hou, didn't you use the slogan this time to define a new idol? I think the new idol is not a person, but a spirit, a spirit of going forward. You look at this photo, There is a kind of meaning of smashing the south wall, doesn't it just fit your slogan?"

After hearing this, Hou Haisen looked at the photo silently, and it was indeed the image Lin Li said.

"This photo from the back is used as the cover, no one has done this before." Hou Haisen was still hesitant.

"It's because no one has done it before. Your magazine has set a precedent for this to cause topic. Don't you prove that you are also defining a new magazine with practical actions? And this cover does not highlight me, but your magazine, no It will feel overwhelming."
