Chapter 35 Teacher Helps
At the same time, the students gave me face, but not much, and asked for a lot. Haisheng was extremely disappointed. When he returned to his seat, he was ready to find a solution to his friend Jiang Dawei, but he was short of money, so how could he ask!
Maybe "The God of Cookery" will be aborted and will be filmed again next year when the money is available. This year's Spring Festival schedule had to be skipped. When he was making arrangements, the teacher asked him to go to the office. Liu Fanggang, the head teacher of the training class, invited him.
Haisheng came to the teacher's office and immediately came forward to say hello when he saw someone: "Hello, director, do you have anything to do with me?"
"Sit down, to be honest, I have taught so many students, and you are the most special one. In more than three months, you have learned the theoretical knowledge thoroughly and your performance has reached a certain level. What is commendable is that you have a courageous heart to move forward!" Liu
Fang Gang treated me warmly.
"Thank you, director, for the compliment! It's all because of your good teaching and the teachers who spared no effort to guide me that I achieved good results. You are the biggest contributors!"
"Ha, haha... You little guy is better at using official accent than us!" Liu Fanggang laughed, and the teachers present in the office also laughed.
Haisheng continued to be modest: "I'm just telling the truth!"
"Okay, let's get down to business. I heard that you are going to make a movie at your own expense. How much money are you planning to invest?"
"Only more than 400,000 yuan, the small cost can't catch the eye of the director. Everything is difficult at the beginning. I didn't expect that it would be so difficult to set up the crew. It's hard to find actors, and there are no shadows of the people behind the scenes." Hai Sheng complained.
Liu Fanggang was surprised: "400,000 is still less! I think when I first debuted, it only cost tens of thousands of yuan to make a movie. Nowadays, the cost of a Shaw Brothers movie is only that much. Some of it is even less than your investment.
Don’t belittle yourself!”
"Thank you, Director, for your encouragement!"
"Do you have a script? Can you show it to me?"
"Of course, I'll leave it in the classroom, so go get it now!" Haisheng left the office and returned a while later to get a stack of scripts and handed them to the class teacher.
Liu Fanggang read it carefully. The handwriting on the script was clear and neat, the story frame was clear, the main and supporting characters had specific descriptions, and the lines were clear. This was a complete script.
After reading it, he sighed: "It's rare to write such a complete script in just over three months, which is better than most students. The story is interesting to me. Can you tell me what are the difficulties in setting up the crew?"
"There are not enough supporting roles, there are no venues, there are no behind-the-scenes, and even the filming equipment has not been secured yet. I have only decided on the male and female protagonists and some supporting roles. I also prepared movie inserts, soundtracks, and theme songs." Hai Sheng detailed the work of the crew.
Preparation.
Liu Fanggang glanced at him and said with a smile: "Everything is really difficult at the beginning. Are you sure you will invest so much money and make a movie at your own expense? You are still a student. Although you are excellent in all aspects, you have not struggled in society. Maybe
I don’t know much about film and television. The actual situation will be very different from what you imagined. You think you will make an excellent movie, but the audience may not buy it, and the box office will be dismal, and all your investment will be in vain. 40
It’s not a small amount, think about it carefully!”
Haisheng nodded: "I firmly believe that I will make excellent movies. Of course, there are risks in any business, and it is possible that the first movie will fail before the success is achieved, but I will not be decadent because of the failure of one movie. The worst is next year.
Come again!”
"What a boy, you are so courageous! If you can trust us teachers, we will help you prepare rental equipment for the crew and even play some guest roles! What do you think?" Liu Fanggang stood up and said excitedly.
Haisheng kept saying thanks: "Thank you, director, thank you teachers!"
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. There are conditions. Every training class student has an internship period after graduation, but they may not be able to get good resources. Most of them are slowly honing their skills in small roles or in unimportant TV programs.
As the host here. You sincerely make movies and are willing to give students the opportunity to practice. Of course we fully support it. This is a good opportunity to teach while making movies. Only by combining theory with practice can students truly master film and television knowledge. Do you understand what I am saying?
?" Liu Fanggang asked calmly.
Haisheng replied: "I understand what you mean, director. You can help me set up the crew and teach while filming the movie."
"That's right, that's what I mean. The wireless training class has been open for more than ten years, and very few of the students have made movies at their own expense. We will fully support you, but we will also play a supporting role. You have to control the quality of the movie yourself. I can't say that.
If you like it, your "God of Cookery" has a high chance of winning."
Haisheng smiled: "The film hasn't been made yet, so it's too early to draw conclusions now. I still say that winning or losing is mine. The director and teachers are willing to support me. I am very grateful. No matter how the movie box office is? You and the teachers
Everyone will get a salary."
"Haha, forget about the salary. We as teachers also hope that the students can make a difference. Only when you stand out can the teacher's face be bright. Now that the words have been stated clearly, then this script will stay with me. I and other
The teacher will have a meeting to discuss it. When we come to a conclusion, we will discuss it with you." Liu Fanggang gently patted the script in his hand.
"No problem!" Haisheng left the teacher's office with a smile on his face.
After school in the afternoon, the director stayed with him to discuss the preparations for the filming of "The God of Cookery". The teachers unanimously expressed their support for Haisheng to make the film at his own expense, but making a movie is not a child's play, and it affects the whole body.
The teacher wanted to see Haisheng's sincerity and handed over at least 200,000 to Director Liu as the cost of leasing equipment and contacting the venue. Of course, each expense had detailed data, and Haisheng would be asked to review and sign for confirmation before spending it.
No matter how much money Haisheng pays, Director Liu will make a receipt. He will not blackmail the students' money for no reason. He will discuss other details after seeing the money. Without money, it is just empty talk.
Haisheng agreed and promised to bring the money the next day. The temporary meeting was dissolved on the spot. Many teachers praised Haisheng for being brave and daring to make films at his own expense before he graduated. 400,000 is not a small amount, and many teachers have less savings.
many.
Huang Zhan and Sun Jiawen advised him to think twice before acting, as it is not so bad to waste money. Haisheng thanked him and went home, and talked to Tian Xing and expressed his idea of making a movie.
Tian Xing really obeyed Hai Sheng's words, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he worshiped him. The good life of the Tian family was all thanks to Hai Sheng. Hai Sheng agreed to whatever he wanted, and the money was in Hai Sheng's house.
Let him take as much as he wants.
Haisheng said he wanted to keep accounts and keep a detailed account of how much he took. The next day he brought 250,000 yuan and put it in the trunk of his motorcycle. He rode to the intersection where Miss Lan often passed by.
He came a little early, and Lan Jieying was not too late. In the past, there was a bus to pick her up and drop off, but then it disappeared, so she had to squeeze into the bus, so she naturally had to go to the station early to wait.
Today, when I turned the corner and came to the intersection, I saw a familiar figure squatting there eating steamed buns and soy milk. I subconsciously ran over and wanted to dig through the trunk to get food. But I stopped halfway and slowly changed.
Chapter completed!
