Chapter 20 Getting Ready
After the negotiations on the Bayi Factory were made, they used their own locations, their own equipment, their own technicians, and even those who could find troops to be extras. In this way, they invested in this way.
And what is the return required by this investor? In the words of Huang Tuanzu, no matter what, you have to pay the salary during the shooting process. In addition, if you really make money, you will make up for the salary you owed before.
What a simple request. Wu Xiang almost cried without being moved after hearing this. As for Huang Xuanbo, he felt that this girl seemed to be smiling, but he had no evidence, so it was not convenient to investigate it.
"Why are you so many fallacies?" Huang Xuanbo couldn't help it as soon as he left the gate of the Bayi Factory. The look of this guy's eyes at Wu Xiang now was completely different, which was even more evil than Wu Xiang's original author of the book "First".
"Hehe..." Wu Xiang was so happy. How could he be unhappy? With the support of the Bayi Factory, he seemed to have seen that he could shoot a grand production with the smallest investment. However, he did not directly answer Huang Xuanbo's question, but asked back, "How do you know Captain Huang? You all have surnames Huang, are they relatives?"
"Who is his relative? I was filming a movie when I was a child. He saw me again and I liked it very much. My surname is Huang, so I will call him uncle from now on." Huang Xuanbo answered Wu Xiang's question naturally, but he immediately felt something was wrong, "Hey, no, I'll ask you first!"
Wu Xiang smiled and said, "I'm not a fallacy. You have to put it together. What has the president never done before? The more awesome you are, you will understand it yourself.
Huang Xuanbo couldn't help but start checking the movies he had watched, but when he thought that Mr. Harrison could fight terrorists on AIR-FORCE1, it seemed that this was true. "Okay, you are reasonable, capable, and will fool you. I admire you, you are so impressed!"
Huang Xuanbo's words were really true, because as far as he knew before, Huang Hong just told Wu Xiang to come and meet him. Unexpectedly, all the conversation was completed.
But Wu Xiang smiled and said, "Hehehe... there are some things that make you admire me even more."
"You brag, you!" How could Huang Xuanbo believe it?
But since the words were said, Wu Xiang would not just blow.
"Students! Let's take a look. Our crew of "The Great Flood" recruits actors! As long as you want to act, as long as you want to do something for the disaster area, please join us!"
"Look, take a look, the crew of "The Great Flood" has recruited people. The treatment is generous, including food and accommodation, the most important thing is to show love. We are the same as the people in the disaster area!"
Today happened to be September 1st, the first day of the film school. Wu Xiang joined 307 people and set up a stall at the entrance of the school and started shouting.
This is recruiting people, this is a good time. Even if you take on acting outside on the first day of school, you have to come back and report. Of course, the particularly famous ones and those who have a show will not come back, but this is also the best time for Wu Xiang and the others to find actors.
"Big Bamboo Pole!" You can tell, someone is really here, he is still a beautiful woman.
"Hey, classmate Wen is very good." Wu Xiang saw that it was nothing but Wen Zhengrong.
"Are you recruiting actors here?" Wen Zhengrong went straight to the point.
"Tell me." Wu Xiang felt like there was a way out when he heard this.
"What treatment?" No nonsense.
"For food and accommodation, the woman gives 1500." Wu Xiang offered a price, but...
"You're too low, right? Didn't you meet the minimum wage standard?" Wen Zhengrong frowned. What do you mean, are you recruiting migrant workers here?
Wu Xiang smiled and explained, "It's not too low. We are a manly play, and girls have fewer roles. If you come to play, I happen to have a female college student role. It's only a few shots, which will take less than a week. Besides, isn't this a love for the disaster area? Just show your love in front of you."
"There is no heroine?" Wen Zhengrong frowned even more.
"Just this college student, even the heroine." Wu Xiang said it was really true.
"Okay! I'll take it!" The heroine, the young master of opera is also the heroine.
"Okay!" Wu Xiang found the heroine of his first drama. He really didn't tell any lies. There were really not many female scenes in this drama.
This is a drama that reflects flood control and disaster relief. Women should have flexible scenes, but not many. Wu Xiang’s idea is to embellish it, just don’t be too boring. If there are too many, it will be too procrastinating. Besides, this is not the main spirit that this drama wants to express.
"Big Zhuan'er! Do you think I'm successful?" Before Wen Zhengrong left, another beauty came, which was Zhang Yanyan.
When Wu Xiang saw that he still looked like Zhu Qiqi, he didn't have to laugh, but he just smiled and looked so naughty and lively. Wu Xiang seemed to remember that Zhang Yanyan also appeared in the original version of "The Stunning Waves". So why don't he do it? So Wu Xiang said, "Of course there is no problem."
"That's the treatment." Zhang Yanyan felt a little embarrassed when he said this.
This guy Wu Xiang didn't hesitate at all in this regard, "Food and accommodation, 1,000."
Why is this standard lower again? That person is capable? "Oh! Why are you doing this? Sister Wen was only 1,500 just now, and you have lowered the standard again this time?"
Wu Xiang immediately explained: "It's simple. Sister Wen is the heroine, and you can be considered the second female lead at most."
"Oh!" Zhang Yanyan stomped his feet and immediately showed off the most powerful ability of a woman and acted coquettishly. "I want 1,500, which is not unfair!"
"Yi Qian2, is this okay? You have to set aside a little bit of a gap with the heroine, right?" Wu Xiang is really good at bargaining.
"You, you..." Zhang Yanyan was so angry.
Wen Zhengrong, who was standing beside him, couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Forget it, this is a desperate master. By the way, let's call him a rooster in the future."
"Hehe, this is great, big bamboo pole iron rooster!" This time, the man was happy.
Wu Xiang was so unhappy, "Why did you make so many nicknames for me? Who is so good at inventing and creating?"
"..." Wen Zhengrong kept silent, but Zhang Yanyan smiled and said, "Why don't you know that you are so smart? Hehe..."
Wu Xiang now understood that it must be Huang Yi. However, I don’t seem to see that fat girl recently. She didn’t come to film. This is the matter… “By the way, I have so many nicknames now.” Wu Xiang is very interested in this question.
"Hehe, I think about it, big shorts, thin monkeys, clothes racks,..." Zhang Yanyan casually made more than ten.
The black thread on Wu Xiang's forehead is getting heavier and heavier...
"Brother, I really admire you even more now. You are so awesome!" Facing Wu Xiang who gave such a pay, Huang Xuanbo could only give him a thumbs up.
"Hehe, I've won the prize." Wu Xiang was still so thrilled.
"Do you know what I admire most?" Looking at Wu Xiang, Huang Xuanbo continued, "You guys can cheat anyone!"
It was sarcastic to hear that, but Wu Xiang could only say helplessly: "I can't do anything about it, how tight my budget is."
That's the case, Huang Xuanbo couldn't say anything more...
Don’t underestimate this stall. Wu Xiang has really attracted a lot of people. This drama requires many characters, but most of them are fragmented characters. However, relying on the strong resources of the Film Academy, Wu Xiang’s casting work is still very smooth.
The most interesting thing Wu Xiang got was not the actor, but the teacher, Mu Deyuan, the instructor of the photography department. He took the initiative to come over and ask him to help with the filming, and his salary and other things are easy to say. Teacher Mu's meaning is very direct. You students can do this for the disaster area, so what's the shortage of being a teacher?
In this way, the applicants are even more like a cross-border carp. Many freshmen even come to register, but Wu Xiang refused. The Film Academy does not allow freshmen to film films now.
The important role is basically decided. Brother Kun is the male lead, playing Zhang Shangwu, Huang Xuanbo's second male lead, and Liu Xiangqun. Huang Hong took the initiative to play the role of the commander's father, and he even brought Teacher Song Chunli to play the commander's wife. Not only that, they also played the role of zero pay. In their words, they are just to stand up for you and help the formation.
