Chapter 6 The Alliance of the Frustrated (22, [-] words please vote)

Didn't succeed because of the lack of good works and good opportunities?

Yang Yi also felt the same way before.

But now he doesn't think so.

On the one hand, because of using teacher Zhang Songwen's actor experience card, Yang Yi has a new understanding of acting and acting skills, and "really" realized the gap between himself and a good actor.

Just like the phrase "there are no small roles, only small actors" that he used to say in Beijing Film and Television's teacher, so what about playing a supporting role, you can also perform brilliantly in a supporting role, and perform superbly!

With good acting skills, why worry about not having a good opportunity, not having the chance to play the leading role?

It’s good that the entertainment industry is dark and dirty, but there are also some good directors, good actors, and good works who insist on making good movies. It was his dream to act in a serious and down-to-earth way like Teacher Zhang Songwen!

On the other hand, it is because he has a huge library of literature, film and television resources on the earth in parallel time and space, and there is no shortage of good works.

Perhaps the opportunity is something that cannot be met. Without the support of capital, no matter how good a young actor's acting skills are, it will take a long time before he has a chance to stand out.

But if others do not take him to play movies and TV series, he can do it himself!

There are so many good works, why worry about not being able to make a splash in your own world?

"You want to make a movie yourself? Really or not?"

"Brother Yi, you have been missing for more than half a year, are you trying to hold back such a big move?"

"The idea is awesome, but how can it be so easy to make a movie? You can make it if you say it?"

A week later, under the pier of an overpass on the Shili River, five men were eating barbecue around a small square table.

With simple plastic chairs, an open dirt floor, and the smell of fireworks, this barbecue stall looks like a ghost vendor that the urban management will pop up to arrest at any time.

But the skewers served on the table are really delicious. The owner is a Uighur. It is said that they are from KS. The grilled lamb chops sprinkled with cumin and the crispy bones are charred on the outside and tender on the inside. !

The most soulful way to eat meat with naan is to take a golden and crispy naan bread, put it on a few mutton skewers with bubbling fat, put the naan bread together with your big hands, and pull out the skewer.

This hot baked naan bread is wrapped with fat and thin grilled lamb, and it is eaten openly, and it has a rough and boundless feeling of "the desert is solitary, the long river sets the sun"!

But now they are not eating naan buns, because they want to talk about filming, everyone is holding skewers and drinking with disposable cups.

The four men who ate with Yang Yi were all actors.

To be precise, they are all "old" actors like Yang Yi, who have been ups and downs for many years and still haven't become famous.

This "old" is relative.

Among the five, the oldest is Ye Fuming, who was born in 1978 and is 45 years old this year. The child is eight years old!

Yang Yi is 31 years old this year, but he is not the youngest. Liao Chunsheng, who called him "Brother Yi" just now, is two years younger than him.

29 years old is not young anymore, only one step away from thirty!

It is said that they stand at 40, but they have not established their names in this circle at the age of [-] or [-]. Let alone what outsiders think, they themselves feel that these years have been a failure.

Therefore, when Zhang Jiajun started this group, he specially named their group "Union of the Frustrated".

It's frustration, not failure!

The difference of one word is a thousand miles away.

Frustration is unsuccessful, and the result is unsatisfactory.

Failure is a more passive admission of defeat, acknowledging your own results.

They call themselves losers because they still have energy and are unwilling to admit defeat and give up on their dreams of becoming actors.

Being able to come together and become very good friends is also because they are similar and unwilling to follow the trend and become a tool for fame and fortune.Acting well, being obsessed with acting skills, and becoming an old drama player who has always acted in the future is their ultimate dream!

Ye Fuming is the most vivid representative of them.

Strictly speaking, Lao Ye is not a "frustrated person".Because when he was young, Ye Fuming played the leading role, and won an award for that sensitive literary film.

But Ye Fuming is a very good person. He is very picky about scripts. In his early years, he mostly made literary films, and he was often banned in China, so that he was not very popular among ordinary audiences.

Now he is even more picky. He doesn’t shoot online dramas, doesn’t shoot bad movies, and doesn’t look for him for big production projects, so even if he is willing to delve into small supporting roles for a good script, he has fallen into almost nowhere in recent years. In the predicament of filming.

Of course, Ye Fuming is not in a hurry. He bought a house in the capital early in his life. His wife is a teacher and her salary is not low. Even if his income from filming is average, he can live a decent life and he can continue to stick to his beliefs.

Not everyone has the confidence to continue to consume like Ye Fuming. Ma Shiqing, who is already 35 years old, has been urged by his family in various ways in the past two years, and at the same time beaten by reality. His mentality is a bit out of balance.

Hearing Yang Yi said that he planned to film by himself just now, Ma Shiqing couldn't help questioning a few words, which sounded a little weird.

"It's not about making a movie, I mean first try making a TV series."

Yang Yi picked up the bottle and poured them beer.

"It's not easy to make a TV series! Xiao Yi, I know you are a screenwriter. Writing scripts is not a problem for you, but can you also be a director? Directors, screenwriters, and acting are not the same thing. !"

Zhang Jiajun didn't know how well Yang Yi's script was written. He hadn't read the script Yang Yi had brought.

Currently, the stack of scripts is in Ye Fuming's hands.Ye Fuming was so engrossed in watching it that he didn't even bother to masturbate, and Zhang Jiajun couldn't help but want to come and watch.

"The key is that you have to make the film yourself. Whether the filming is good or not is another matter. This filming costs money, right? Where do you go to attract investment?"

Ma Shiqing continued to question, and continued to be pessimistic.

"I want to pool a few million first, shoot the first few episodes, and then show them to those video platforms. As long as the quality of the film is good, I will definitely get the investment."

Yang Yi has confidence in "The Hidden Corner". Such a good-looking drama will definitely become a hit!

"Damn, how many millions did you get together? Where did you get so much money? Is it crowdfunding? Xiaoyi, it's not that Brother Ma doesn't support your dream, but you know the situation. My trouser pocket is cleaner than my face!"

Ma Shiqing exaggeratedly pulled out his trouser pocket to show Yang Yi.

Don't blame Ma Shiqing for being realistic, talking about money really hurts feelings, especially when a group of poor people talk about money!Didn't you see that both Zhang Jiajun and Liao Chunsheng had wry smiles on their faces?

"If you want to say thousands or tens of thousands of dollars, my buddies can find a way to help you make it up. You can say a few million at the beginning. How can you make it up? You can't sell all the houses in your hometown, right?"

Zhang Jiajun said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"It's not crowdfunding. I will find a way to solve the money problem myself. But I can't handle this movie alone. I will need everyone's help when the time comes."

Yang Yi picked up a glass of wine and looked at them sincerely.

Regardless of the fact that the five members of the "League of the Lost" are losers who can't make a name for themselves, in fact, the ups and downs of experience can train people better. After ten or even twenty years of hard work, they They all have their own unique skills in filming, or have accumulated a lot of network resources!

For example, Zhang Jiajun, in addition to filming, he also participates in dramas, and is even very familiar with the production of props.

There is also Liao Chunsheng, although he is the youngest of the five, but in fact he has the most flexible mind and the widest network - he is not from a professional background like Yang Yi and Ye Fuming. , so many group leaders in Beijing and Hengdian have contact with him.

Even Ma Shiqing, who thinks he is the worst and poorest, has his own unique skills.

music!

Yes, Ma Shiqing knows music, although he is not from a major, but he sings very well, and is often called "the original singer" by everyone in KTV!

When there is no filming, Ma Shiqing will also broadcast live online to earn some reward money.

However, Ma Shiqing is really ugly, so even if he has a good voice, he has no chance to make a difference in the music industry.Of course, in this day and age, the music industry isn't doing much.

If Yang Yi wants to film, he must first form his team. Since he has no money and no qualifications, he can only consider people he knows well.

If the five brothers can come together, wouldn't half of the grass team be set up?

Moreover, now that Yang Yi has a work, he wants to bring his brothers along. Ye Fuming and the others often extended a helping hand to him when he had no films to make.

"Filming is fine. If you need it, I'm sure I'll have nothing to say, and I don't want any salary!"

At the beginning, Ma Shiqing wanted to say that you will pay for the film, but after hesitating for a while, he changed his mind.

A pocket is cleaner than a face, but for a man, face is more important than a ticket!

"Are you looking for me to film, right? I have to check the schedule, otherwise I won't be able to take a good look if there is a conflict. Oh, my schedule is empty? That's no problem!"

Zhang Jiajun looked at his phone pretendingly, and the final result made everyone laugh.

It seems that not talking about borrowing money is still effective, and the atmosphere on the small square table has become much more relaxed.

"I'm fine, as long as Brother Yi needs it, I'll be there!" Liao Chunsheng raised his hand, and after he finished expressing his attitude, he looked at Ye Fuming, "But Brother Yi, are you looking for a video platform to attract investment in the later stage? Wouldn't the filmed film become an online drama?"

Why do you need to look at Ye Fuming to say this?

Because they all know that Ye Fuming never accepts web dramas.

You know, in recent years, online dramas have gained momentum. From the previous shoddy productions, now they have started to invite important directors and some well-known professional actors!

As a professional actor who has won foreign awards before, Ye Fuming still has some gimmicks. Therefore, many online dramas want to cast him, and the prices offered are not low.

But without exception, they were all rejected by Ye Fuming!

"It's not a problem to make an online drama. I don't make an online drama, just because those scripts are too ridiculous. If there is a good script, I will definitely not refuse it, such as this one by Xiaoyi!"

Ye Fuming raised the script in his hand, without hiding his admiration.

He hadn't finished the script, but he was already deeply attracted by just watching the first two episodes. He couldn't put it down, and he couldn't let go of it to Zhang Jiajun who had been waiting for a long time.

"Xiao Yi's script is well written?"

Zhang Jiajun knew that Lao Ye was the kind of person who had no limits. If it was not good, even if it was a script written by an acquaintance, he would not exaggerate.

"The writing is very good, the characters are very characteristic, and the plot is intertwined, and the suspense is very strong! Anyway, I won't be able to sleep tonight if I don't finish watching it!"

After Ye Fuming finished speaking, he couldn't help pointing at Yang Yi.

"At first, I thought it was a pity for you, Xiao Yi, to give up acting, but I really didn't expect that you didn't waste the past half a year! After accumulating a lot, and expressing your feelings, you actually created such an interesting suspense drama script!"

Ye Fuming's compliment made Yang Yi a little bit dumbfounded, the "feeling it" in his words is meaningful!

Others couldn't hear it, because Yang Yi didn't tell anyone about his marriage to Li Mengfei.Only Ye Fuming knew who Yang Yi's wife was - Yang Yi took Li Mengfei to celebrate his daughter Ye Yujia's eighth birthday.

In Ye Fuming's view, Zhang Dongsheng's role in "The Hidden Corner" is so vividly portrayed, which has something to do with Yang Yi's "wiring" into Li Mengfei's house.

Although he doesn't know the relationship between Yang Yi and Li Mengfei's family, even though Yang Yi and Li Mengfei seem to be quite affectionate, the status and status of the two men and women are too different, especially the difference between the man and the woman is so great, the family level will definitely be different. There are various problems, which are almost common sense, so don't guess!

Yang Yi couldn't explain it, and it was hard to explain it now, so he could only shake his head with a wry smile.

Fortunately, others didn't pay much attention to Ye Fuming's subtext.

Instead, everyone was aroused by his description and urged Ye Fuming to hand them the script.

"I will send you the electronic version. I only printed one copy of the paper version. Please take a look at it on your mobile phone first. I will type it out for you later."

Seeing this, Yang Yi took out his mobile phone.

"Should I sign a non-disclosure agreement first?"

Ye Fuming reminded him jokingly.

"Is there no need for a confidentiality agreement? We are all brothers, and I have actually registered the copyright of this script, and I have also contacted the publishing house for the version of the novel."

Ye Fuming frowned at Yang Yi's opening sentence.After hearing what he said later, Ye Fuming was relieved.

Isn't this kid defenseless at all!

"It seems that Xiao Yi has a well-planned plan! Then what are you talking about? Brothers, you should study the script carefully when you go back, and help him shoot this "The Hidden Corner"!"

Zhang Jiajun glanced at the name of the script.

Although he still didn't know what the plot was, Zhang Jiajun began to have great expectations for this drama through Ye Fuming's previous comments.

Is it possible that it will become a turnaround for the brothers of the "League of Lost People"?

"A well-planned plan still requires money! Brother, make a TV series! It's millions, not tens of thousands!"

Ma Shiqing was still not very optimistic about Yang Yi's "impulse".

"Don't worry, Xiao Yi said that if he can handle these several million, then there will be no problem."

Ye Fuming patted Yang Yi's shoulder and smiled meaningfully.

Thanks for the reward of Autumn Shenguang! !
