Chapter 114 Jump from one pit to another pit
Xu Jie finished the program copy overnight and handed it over to Jiang Hai, director of the Literary and Art Center, to work the next day.
Jiang Hai was very surprised after receiving the copywriting. He didn't expect Xu Jie to be so fast. The task he just took on yesterday could be completed the copywriting the next day. This is just a program, not a work plan.
Could it be to deal with people?
He started from scratch with such suspicion, but became more and more fascinated, and finally couldn't help but slap the table.
"Okay, very good!" Jiang Hai's eyes were filled with surprise and exclaimed: "The content is novel, the form is unique, and it is close to life, which is a good idea."
At first, he thought the other party was working perfunctorily, but after reading the complete copy, his ideas immediately changed. This is just a talent. Li Donglai is really a critic and has dug up his own treasure.
"Director, if you agree, I will start preparing now." Xu Jie said after hearing this.
The excitement of writing the copywriting last night has not yet dissipated. He wanted to shoot an episode immediately to see how the effect was. After all, no matter how good the copywriting is, it is just a matter of paper. The most important thing is the actual film effect taken.
"Agree, of course I agree." Jiang Hai nodded repeatedly, but while he was happy, a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face. "But, everyone is busy with New Year's Eve and Spring Festival Galas, plus the programs of the Art Channel and the variety shows of the satellite channel, the staff available to you now are really limited, and this situation will not improve until the New Year at least."
Xu Jie was slightly stunned. After the New Year?
Now there is more than a month before the Chinese New Year. In addition to the New Year holiday, should he spend one and a half months in the literary and artistic center?
He secretly calculated that he was the director, and at least two starring actors needed. Naturally, the more extras, the better. In addition, the cameraman, costumer, makeup artist, prop artist, and post-production... at least seven or eight people were required.
"Director, how many people can you give me?" Xu Jie asked. He didn't want to wait until the New Year, or so long.
Jiang Hai thought about it, then slowly stretched out two fingers: "Two!"
"ah?"
Xu Jie was stunned and even wondered if the other party was joking with him.
Two people?
This is too far from what he thought.
With him, there are only three people in total.
How do you shoot this? Is it up to your thoughts?
If this is an ordinary food program, it’s okay to grit your teeth. Wasn’t there only three people when filming the winter special program in "Serving People’s Livelihood"?
But the problem is that the program filmed this time is very different from the winter special program, especially the historical scene dramas, which require more people to participate. You can't replace the extras with paper people, right?
"Director, can't you give me more people?" Xu Jie wanted to win over the show.
"Xu Jie, there is really no one in the Literary and Art Center now. I will squeeze these two out of other columns for you." Jiang Hai said with a wry smile: "Or what if we wait for the New Year before we do it? It will be fine if you want to have me on the road at that time."
Xu Jie was silent. It was not impossible to wait for the New Year after the New Year, but he was worried that the things he photographed would change after his excitement.
"Director..." Xu Jie thought seriously, then looked at Jiang Hai and asked, "Then how much money can you give me?"
The old saying goes well: There is not enough people, so you can make up funds.
With funds, I still have to worry about not being able to hire someone? At worst, I can go outside the film factory to spend money to find someone to film.
Jiang Hai thought about it and stretched out two more fingers.
"Twenty thousand?" Xu Jie's eyes lit up and he thought to himself: He is worthy of being the leader who holds a big variety show, and the funds are enough.
"Two thousand!" Jiang Hai said.
"Two thousand a day?" Xu Jie asked.
"Two thousand in one program!"
“…”
Xu Jie fell into deep memories.
He remembered the fried liver he ate this morning. At this moment, he really wanted to pour that bowl of steaming fried liver on Director Jiang's face to let the other party know what mess is!
To be honest, the funding for the winter special program is less than half of the funding.
He thought that he could make up for the funds inadequate staff, but he didn't expect that he would have no one to ask for money and no money. The literary and artistic center is so poor!
Think about it, if the ratings are not good, the advertising fee will be low, and there is no sponsorship, the production fund of the program will naturally decrease accordingly. What's more, the program has not been filmed yet, so no one can say how good it is. After all, he thinks it's useless, and the director thinks it's useless. It's really good to ask the audience to say it's good.
Xu Jie sighed in his heart, and thousands of words filled with one sentence: I was not the time to come.
If you come two months earlier or two months later, at least you don’t have to worry about manpower.
Should we really postpone it until the end of the New Year?
no!
Working on a show is like fighting a war. It will be a success, and then it will fade away. And once this idea is used by others, there is no place to buy regret medicine!
Xu Jie thought about it before and finally made an important decision, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, two thousand is only two thousand, two thousand, just two, give it to me."
For the new program, he has difficulties to go on, and he has to go on even if he doesn’t have difficulties.
The arrow has to be fired on the string!
Jiang Hai was stunned when he heard this. After a while, he asked, "You, do you really want to do it?"
Xu Jie nodded heavily: "Fuck!"
Jiang Hai swallowed and spitted. The whole Taiwan didn't know about this courage, but there was definitely no second one in the Literary and Art Center.
However, he likes the three young people who use few people, spend less money, and do less!
"Okay, I'll call you right away. You can spend two thousand dollars on the money first. I'll sign and reimburse you for the reimbursement. In addition, use the equipment at will, and then you will be equipped with an interview car." Jiang Hai said generously at this time.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door outside the office, and then I saw two fat and thin people walking in from outside.
Xu Jie was slightly stunned. He knew the fat man who often saw him eat love bento in the cafeteria. After yesterday's introduction, he learned the other party's name. Liu Jinbao, a photographer, and another slim named Tian Haobo, was an intern reporter.
"Director, are you looking for us?" Liu Jinbao looked at Jiang Hai and asked.
Jiang Hai looked at the two of them seriously and said, "Xu Jie has a new program to do, so starting today, you two don't have to do anything else, just follow his instructions.
Although he can't afford to come up with people or money, he can show his attitude.
Liu Jinbao and Tian Haobo looked at Xu Jie and said, "Yes, Director."
The three of them left the director's office. Liu Jinbao was already very familiar with Xu Jie. He hugged Xu Jie's shoulder and asked with a smile: "Teacher Xu, what do you want me to do? I promise that it's okay to go to the mountain of swords and the sea of fire."
"Don't, you'd better call my name directly." Xu Jie said after hearing this.
"How can that be? You are my love mentor, so it's not an exaggeration to call you a teacher." Liu Jinbao said with a smile.
"Teacher Xu, what's the name of the program we're doing?" Tian Haobo asked curiously, his eyes full of excitement.
He is an intern this year. He usually does the work of pouring water and sweeping the floor and copying documents in the Literary and Art Center. He was suddenly arranged to participate in the program production today. He was so excited.
"I haven't figured out the specific name yet, it's just a program related to food." Xu Jie said after hearing this.
"Gourmet? I like it!" Liu Jinbao's eyes flashed, "Tell me, where can I go to visit the store? I happened to have no meal in the morning."
"I haven't decided yet, let me think about it!" Xu Jie said.
With a program, two thousand funds and three members, he really doesn't know where to start now.
Once, he thought that he could be free from Li Donglai when he came to the Literary and Art Center, but he didn't expect that he would just jump from one pit to another.
Xu Jie optimistically comforted himself: It’s okay, the ultimate destination of a person is nothing more than a pit.
