After Pei Shaoze left, the staff had enough to eat and drink to continue the afternoon shooting.
Director Zhang is very demanding. Cheng Xiayi did not rest all afternoon. Fortunately, he learned a lot from the shooting process, especially the "sense of the camera" mentioned by Director Zhang. He has never quite understood how to grasp it. After several demonstrations in person, Cheng Xia gradually found the feeling. He was shooting and studying at the same time. Although he was physically tired all day, he was very fulfilled in his heart.
After returning to the apartment, Cheng Xia went to the bathroom to take a shower, leaned on the bed and started to read the original novel "Folding Paper".
While watching, a message suddenly popped up on WeChat on the mobile phone, which was sent by Pei Shaoze: "No. D-102, Longhu Villa, Binjiang District, Rongcheng City, received by Pei Shaoze, call 1897463XXXX, just send this address directly."
Cheng Xia set up a memo on his mobile phone to save Pei Shaoze's address and phone number, and then typed a reply: "Mr. Pei, the down jacket is at my house, can I send it to you when I get back?"
Pei Shaoze: "No hurry. I usually don't need that dress. Give it to me when you have time."
Cheng Xia replied "Okay", he put down his phone and walked to the window, and found that the light in the office on the 33rd floor of Tianxuan Group diagonally opposite was still on - it was Mr. Pei's office. Today, Mr. Pei is working overtime again, because he is busy Is it about the school drama
President Pei values this drama so much, Cheng Xia thought to himself, he is so transparent that he can't even match the dedication of the boss, right? So he took a pen and sat at the desk, while reading the original novel, he marked down the key points and scrutinized it over and over again, just like taking notes in middle school class.
One of the two worked in the office, and the other read carefully in the artist's apartment.
Time passed, and the two rooms across the street were always lit with warm lights.
They do not disturb each other, but are working towards the same goal.
***
Pei Shaoze is working overtime tonight to check all relevant materials for filing and review.
The film submission system in the ABO world is different from the world he lives in, and he finally figured out the process thoroughly today.
Rongcheng is the second largest city in this country, with a prosperous economy, but the administrative center of the whole country is in Star City, and the organization that manages all TV dramas and movies is also in Star City, called the General Administration of Radio, Film and Television.
Each drama must be filed with the General Administration before the project is approved for filming. There are many materials required for filing, such as plot outline, diversity outline, character biography, script concept, authorization letter for film and television adaptation, list of main creators of the film and crew, company business license, shooting permit, filing registration form, etc. Pei Shaoze follows the regulations of the General Administration , prepare the data one by one.
The drama he picked is a very clean campus drama, suitable for all ages, and the subject matter is also positive. It not only tells the warm emotional line of the two protagonists accompanying each other, but also a lot of descriptions about traditional origami culture. will be blocked.
But to be on the safe side, Pei Shaoze decided to go to Star City in a few days and hand over the information to the General Administration in person. On the one hand, it can urge the efficiency of the General Administration, and on the other hand, it can also explore the wind.
Although the ABO world is different from reality, the process of reviewing and scheduling film and television dramas is similar. If you don't have a good relationship with the General Administration, the release date of this drama will be stuck by the General Administration after the filming is completed, and Pei Shaoze will not be able to implement the "summer vacation." Use the word-of-mouth fermentation of the student group to promote the goal”.
Pei Shaoze quickly typed on the keyboard and quickly wrote a complete project plan.
Zhang Fan has been working overtime with him recently, and Pei Shaoze knew that it would be tiring to be an assistant to a workaholic like him, so he said, "Xiao Zhang, you have worked hard for you recently. Next month, I will let the finance increase your salary. These few days You have to accompany me on a errand."
Zhang Fan's eyes lit up when he heard the salary increase, and he immediately poured Mr. Pei a cup of coffee diligently: "It's not hard! Where are you going on business, Mr. Pei? I'll help you book your flight tickets in advance."
Pei Shaoze glanced at the plan, estimated the time and said, "Go to Xingcheng on the 26th, stay for three days; fly to Ya'an on the 29th, stay for two days, come back on the 31st, you can book the air ticket and hotel."
Zhang Fan hurriedly wrote down the time to book tickets online. He can probably guess what Mr. Pei is doing in these two places - the General Administration of Radio, Film and Television is in Xingcheng, and Mr. Pei obviously wants to go to the trial in person; he mentioned Ya'an City today, which can be used as part of the summer plot of the school drama. The filming venue, he obviously went to inspect in advance this time.
With such a responsible producer, the entire crew is much more relieved!
Zhang Fan also feels relieved to help such a boss. Pei will always explain clearly what the assistant needs to do. Zhang Fan does not have to guess the boss's mind. He will do whatever the boss asks him to do, and his work efficiency is naturally high. .
Pei Shaoze worked overtime again until ten o'clock today.
However, once the project plan is made, the subsequent work only needs to be carried out as planned, and there is no need to stay up late and work overtime in the future.
After writing the plan, Pei Shaoze walked to the window, rubbed his aching temples, and opened the window to let in some air.
At this moment, he found that a window was suddenly pushed open from the apartment across the street. Pei Shaoze has good eyesight, and at a glance he recognized the person walking to the window as Cheng Xia.
The teenager was wearing orange pajamas, and was standing by the window stretching. He seemed to have spotted Pei Shaoze. He stretched for a while, then lowered his arms and gave Pei Shaoze a shy smile.
Pei Shaoze picked up the phone and sent him a message: "Cheng Xia? Your apartment happens to be on the 33rd floor?"
Cheng Xia replied: "Yes, it's a coincidence, I live opposite Mr. Pei's office, and I saw you by the window! [Smiley]"
Pei Shaoze said, "The heating is too hot. I'll come to the window to get some air."
Cheng Xia said: "The heating in the apartment is also very hot. I have been sitting for a long time. Come to the window to exercise my muscles and bones."
Two people: "… "
Therefore, the moment he opened the window, he happened to see Cheng Xia.
Such a coincidence made Pei Shaoze feel very happy, and even the exhaustion from working overtime for a few hours was swept away.
The corners of the man's lips curled slightly, and he sent a voice, patiently exhorting: "I'm going on a business trip in the past few days, you should follow Chen Yijun to shoot the MV, and learn how to face the camera with Director Zhang by the way. You are a newcomer. , treat the people around you with respect, and they won't embarrass you too much, you know?"
Cheng Xia pressed the play button, and the voice that sounded in his ears was the low-pitched and sexy voice unique to adult Alphas, and it was especially nice on a quiet night. Obviously it was a light statement, but Cheng Xia's heart skipped a beat - he inexplicably heard a bit of concern from President Pei's words. Did he think too much
Cheng Xia chased away the random thoughts in his mind, and quickly typed a reply: "I know, I will cooperate with Director Zhang to shoot, President Pei, don't worry, the business trip is going well!"
"Well, I'm off work, good night."
"Mr. Pei good night!"
After the conversation ended, Pei Shaoze turned off the lights and went downstairs.
Cheng Xia also closed the window, rubbed his sore neck, and continued to go back to the table to read.
***
The next day was the weekend and the weather was fine.
Cheng Xia got up early in the morning and followed Chen Yijun's nanny car to shoot the MV.
Yesterday, I took two interior scenes, and today's content is all exterior scenes, such as running on the sports field, playing ball on the court, etc. Although the weather was fine, it was winter after all, and Cheng Xia's hands and feet were numb from the cold after filming this scene.
Assistant Sister Rong hurriedly wrapped the down jacket that she brought with him, and prepared a hand warmer for him. Zhou Yan felt a little distressed when she saw Cheng Xia's frozen red hands: "If it's too cold, I'll talk to Director Zhang and ask you to wear an extra sweater inside."
Cheng Xia smiled and shook his head: "It's okay, this school uniform just fits, if you wear one more, it will be bloated."
As an actor, it is very common to wear short sleeves for summer scenes in winter, and to film winter scenes with cotton-padded clothes in summer. If you can't even endure this pain, it's better to give up as soon as possible. The entire crew is waiting for him, what qualifications does he have as a newcomer to delay the progress
Cheng Xia rubbed his hands and ran to the studio again.
Director Zhang has strict requirements. It took five times to film the game. Chen Yijun couldn't watch it, and couldn't help but said, "Director Zhang, it's almost done, don't freeze our Cheng Xia!"
Director Zhang waved at Cheng Xia: "Cold? Come and drink a cup of hot water."
Cheng Xia's cheeks were red from the cold, but she smiled brightly when she took the thermos cup: "Director Zhang, I'm sorry, I didn't perform well just now, and I've delayed everyone." Looking at the young man's smile, the staff felt that this newcomer was really good. He is too sensible, and his attitude towards Cheng Xia is naturally much gentler.
In the next few days, Cheng Xia has been filming the MV with the crew.
Pei Shaoze took Zhang Fan on a business trip.
After the two arrived at Star City, they went to the hotel to rest for one night. Early the next day, Pei Shaoze personally went to the General Administration of Radio, Film and Television with the materials prepared by Director Liu and Screenwriter Xu. The people from the General Administration probably didn't expect that Tianxuan's boss would make this trip in person? As one of the top companies in the entertainment industry, Tianxuan submits many films for review every year, but this is the first time everyone has seen this new boss.
Pei Shaoze behaved very politely and took the initiative to invite people from the General Administration to have a meal.
He is well versed in interpersonal communication. Back then, in the real world, many things were hard to say on the surface, but they were also discussed at dinner parties. In addition to the filing of new dramas, he also took a look at the high-level voices, such as which subjects are more strictly controlled, which subjects are reviewed more loosely, etc., so as to prepare for future dramas.
He also personally visited a high-level executive of the General Administration. The executive's surname was Qin and he was a classmate of his father. Although Pei Shaoze met him for the first time, Uncle Qin was very interested in Pei Shaoze who came to visit in person because of Mr. Pei's face. Take care and promise to let him know in advance if there is any trouble in the future, lest a certain theme be filmed, but it is stuck on the top and cannot be broadcast.
After Xingcheng's work was over, the two flew to Ya'an again.
There are two reasons for going to Ya'an City. One is the "Mingde Private Middle School" located in the suburbs. Pei Shaoze has checked on the Internet. This school has a very good environment and is the best choice for filming the summer scenes of school dramas; The base is very large, and can shoot dramas with various themes such as costumes, police and bandits, and wars.
Going to the film and television city for a field trip is also to prepare for the future.
Cheng Xia wants to gain a firm foothold in the entertainment industry, and the play must be fully expanded. The campus drama is just a test of water. If the effect is good, Pei Shaoze will let Cheng Xia try different themes, and then he will be able to shoot in the film and television city.
Zhang Fan ran down with President Pei for several days and found that Pei Shaoze was a boss with very clear goals and vision. Most people will only subconsciously solve the current problems they encounter, and simply do the current affairs well. But Pei Shaoze often completes several things in one operation, and even includes problems that may not have been encountered but may arise in the future into the plan.
In just one week's business trip, the harvest is extremely rich.
Since the original book of "Accidental Mark" did not write about other cities except Rongcheng, Pei Shaoze wanted to have a more comprehensive understanding of this ABO world in addition to running errands this time.
The day I returned to Rongcheng happened to be the end of January.
As soon as he got off the plane, he received three pieces of good news.
One is from Chen Yijun: "Mr. Pei, the MV has been filmed, and Cheng Xia's performance is very good. Currently, we are working on the post-production stage. There will be no problem in rushing to the shelves on Valentine's Day. I will report to you!"
The second one was sent by director Liu Xueyi: "Mr. Pei, Xiao Xu has written several scripts for the audition and sent it to your email. How is your progress? When will we announce the audition time?"
The third article was sent by Uncle Qin of the General Administration of Radio, Film and Television: "Shaoze, I have asked people to review the record of your drama as soon as possible. It has been approved. The license number is 20200106. You can check it on the official website of the General Administration."
Pei Shaoze replied, "Thank you, Uncle Qin."
He opened the phone calendar.
This year's Spring Festival falls on February 10, Valentine's Day falls on February 14, and there are still 10 days before the Chinese New Year.
Pei Shaoze opened the dialogue window with Liu Xueyi and said decisively: "There will be a meeting tomorrow, publicity on the 2nd, and an official audition on the 7th."
Liu Xueyi was stunned: "So fast?"
Pei Shaoze leaned in the back row with a calm expression.
The time is a little tight, but he believes that Cheng Xia is ready.
