Chapter 2052 Star of Hope

Xiangjiang in late October is still so sunny.

Huajing, which is in the same season, has already ushered in a refreshing autumn.

Although the temperature has not dropped significantly, sooner or later, you can feel a sense of bleakness.

But in the Chinese opera school, there is still a lively scene everywhere.

In the past few months, Xiangjiang has a total of seven film crews filming in the mainland, including two film crews.

Therefore, they needed a lot of student actors, and even those students from the directing department, photography department, and stage art department were all used to the best of their ability and called to help.

For Xiangjiang's crew, this is a kind of resource utilization as much as possible.

Student actors are definitely easier to use than secondary actors. Calling secondary actors from Xiangjiang is not only expensive, but also involves mobilizing teachers and mobilizing people, so the effect may not be good.

The student actors are obedient and young, and their acting skills are not bad. They are more than enough for ordinary supporting roles, not to mention that the cost is shockingly cheap.

As for director assistants, photography assistants, art stage effects assistants, etc., they can also help with some professional work. Compared with those who don't understand anything, they are of course more trustworthy.

Therefore, every time the Xiangjiang production team comes over, the three major performing arts schools in Huaguo will send a few or a dozen students to go there.

Now the seven production crews are here, and the actors of Huaxi, Beijing Film and Shanghai Opera have finally tasted the happy taste of "running the field".

In the past, when there was no Xiangjiang crew, when filming movies and TV dramas in the mainland, they were all actors from serious film studios, and they rarely got their turn to act, let alone going here in the morning and another crew in the afternoon. Happiness is over.

For them, the most important thing is to be able to act more, accumulate more experience, and get more familiar. As for making money or not, we have to wait until they become famous in the future.

What's more, after a summer vacation or winter vacation, you can earn a salary of thousands of dollars, which is enough to eat and drink for yourself and buy novelty gadgets such as popular clothes, walkmans, and game consoles, and that's enough.

The school is naturally very profitable.

Because the contracts of the crew are all signed with the school, the three major performing arts schools have been able to earn millions of labor fees every year in terms of labor export since 3 years ago.

Yes.

You read that right.

That's all they make.

Except for a little remuneration for the students, they don't even have to worry about the students' food and lodging during the acting period-the crew treats them equally, and everyone eats the same, that is, the leading actors and ordinary actors live in different rooms.

After careful calculation, they are actually not expensive.

Because there have been more than 50 Xiangjiang TV drama crews and film crews filming in the Mainland in the past year, and one crew only paid 60,000 to 70,000 RMB in labor costs. Is it considered expensive?

Not expensive at all!

But for the three major performing arts schools, this is a very good expenditure.

All kinds of teaching equipment and books can be purchased more, and the school's playground, classrooms, and dormitories can also be repaired.

Teachers' benefits can also be upgraded by one liter.

With so many benefits, they wish they could live like this every year, and it would be best if more and more film crews came over.

As for Chinese Opera, as the department that can make the most money for the school—the Department of Chinese Opera Performance, of course, the treatment of their students is also the first.

The teachers not only often take the initiative to teach them small lessons, but also invite many performing artists and veteran directors to explain and impart experience to the students.

Don't underestimate the experience and lessons of these older generations. Although some of them are no longer in line with this era, many things, even after thousands of years, still have the same meaning and essence.

So anyone who can listen to it will add some knowledge and background to themselves more or less.

In school, it is naturally impossible for everyone to be equal.

To be precise, it is impossible for everyone to act the same. There must be some people who behave in the same way, and after a few years, they will disappear from everyone; .

Among the first-year freshmen, the specially recruited Gong Li belongs to the second category.

Since entering school, she is the one who listens most carefully to theoretical classes every day, and she is also the one who is most serious about learning dance and acting rehearsals.

In her spare time, she was the first to go to the library and the last to go.

Therefore, after only two short months, Gong Li is recognized as the No. 1 in the performance department of the 85th grade, and her future must be bright.

The reason for such an evaluation is that in the monthly exam, Gong Li's score is much higher than the others, and she deserves the first place.

Moreover, she belongs to the "person who is born to eat this bowl of rice", this sentence is a highly respected senior in the entertainment industry, after instructing a few classes of first-year freshmen, he sincerely sighed to Gong Li.

The insiders are so optimistic about Gong Li, and Gong Li's treatment outside is also very good.

Just in the past few days, a movie about city life produced by Kylin Culture Huajing Branch has asked Gong Li to play a small supporting role.

It was originally a small supporting role, but after watching Gong Li's performance in the audition, director Feng Xiaogang directly added a part of the scene to her, making her the third female lead.

Although the role is only a dozen or so lines, as a freshman who has only been in school for two months, it is already very remarkable.

As a result, Gong Li came to the set and greeted all the brothers, sisters, and seniors, many people were inexplicably surprised.

Fu Biao, one of the supporting actors, did not understand.

Looking for free time to film, he sat next to director Feng Xiaogang and lead actor Ge You.

"Brother Gang, Brother You, where does Miss Gong come from? Why is she so fierce as soon as she comes up?" Fu Biao said curiously and enviously, "I have so many senior and senior sisters, many of them can laugh at one or two lines now." It's terrible, but she's good, she cast an important supporting role as soon as she came up, and then Brother Gang, you will add to her play."

"Why? Shouldn't it be?" Feng Xiaogang took a big pot and sipped his tea, "Look at the aura of the girl, how beautiful, how beautiful? And when she's acting, she enters the scene every minute, such a good seed , I don’t add drama to her, it’s just that I, Feng Xiaogang, have no vision! What can I achieve in the future?”

Feng Xiaogang actually has a good eye for discovering beauty.

For example, the "Youth" he made is somewhat similar in meaning to the National Teacher's "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree", but both the word of mouth and the box office directly exploded the National Teacher's, which shows that Feng Xiaogang is Casting and tuning x an actress' vision.

Although there are all kinds of rumors, but no matter what, under various restrictions, even if there are some transactions in it, they can still make it like this, that is amazing, it is awesome!

"No, I didn't mean that..." Fu Biao hurriedly shook his hand, his tone much weaker, "Isn't it a little strange that I saw that she was too young and only enrolled for two months? Many actors also They're all talking about it."

"Biaozi, tell them not to think about it." Feng Xiaogang waved his hand, "It's best to act in your own movie, don't just think about what's there... It's not easy for me to direct this movie, everyone, young and old. Man, you have to fight for me too!"

"Yes, I understand!"

Fu Biao obediently turned around and left.

He didn't get the answer he wanted until he left.

In other words, Feng Xiaogang didn't say anything substantive to him at all.

The movie they are making now is the second script written by Feng Xiaogang right after he made a small fortune in "Stubborn Lord".

Gan Guoliang gave him a budget of 3 million RMB after reading the script.

This time he couldn't afford to invite Zhang Guoli, who had a full schedule.

But Ge You, who is only a little lower than Zhang Guoli, is his best friend, so of course he can invite him over.

Then add the group of people I knew before, and some friends, and re-select some behind-the-scenes personnel in the Qilin Culture Huajing branch, and this team will be built.

It’s just that Feng Xiaogang was still a little nervous. He was worried that his judgment of the market was not good enough, so he became more serious in his actions. He felt that he could not let Mr. Gan down.

"There are a lot of gossips." After Fu Biao left, Feng Xiaogang looked at Gong Li who was reading the script seriously in the distance, and sighed, "Can't these people's minds be a little purer?"

Ge You smiled, "How pure? Do you believe that she has no background?"

"Hehe, how is it possible?" Feng Xiaogang talked to his best buddies, of course he would not hide it, "Mr. Gan specifically asked her to act, and I just pushed the boat along the way and gave her a little more role."

After a pause, he said again, "It's just that I think that this girl should not belong to Mr. Gan."

"Oh?" Ge You said in surprise, "Who is that?"

"Young Master Jun."

Feng Xiaogang said in a leisurely manner.

"This...isn't that possible?" Ge You shook his head, "I looked at her information, and she has been in Ludong before, and she has never been to Huajing. It seems that Jun Shao has never been to Ludong either. ?”

"Mr. Gan asked us to help her so quietly, because we obviously don't want her to know that there are noble people helping her. If it was Mr. Gan's own person, how could he do good deeds so silently?" Feng Xiaogang said, "Besides, yesterday When Brother Gang and I were having dinner, he happened to be entertaining a female director and her boyfriend from Xiangjiang. They also asked about Gong Li, saying that they planned to open a movie after the Chinese New Year, and they also wanted Gong Li to act.

They knew that Gong Li had just entered school, and they were a little worried about whether such a young female student actor would be able to hold a role in a play. I can tell that they don't know Gong Li, but why did they give her the role so easily? This is not in line with the style of Xiangjiang people! So I thought, besides Jun Shao, who else can let Xiangjiang take care of a little girl? "

"Don't think about it too much, lest something will happen, and it will be troublesome." Ge You said in a deep voice.

"I know, it's impossible for me to do anything." Feng Xiaogang said, "But it's always good for us to get acquainted with her, right? If something happens in the future, it's easy for us to have someone in the court!"

Ge You couldn't help but smile, "You, don't try to gain too much money, making a good movie is our foundation! Young Master Jun will not value you just because you are a jester."

"Yes, don't worry, I know it well."

Speaking of this, Feng Xiaogang is still very clear that strength is his foundation.

But what...

Looking at that youthful and beautiful figure, Feng Xiaogang still felt in his heart that he should make friends with her more.

It can't be because she is young that she doesn't pay attention to other people's future.

If it's true that she soars into the sky, if nothing else is mentioned, she will get more budget for filming in the future...or even get a copy of Jun Shao's book, that's not out of question, right?
