Strange Life of a Cat

Chapter 304: Ask to appear

Views:

At first, Yang Yi didn't understand why the other party had such an apparent alienation reaction that suddenly became cold and cold. After a while, thinking of something, he took out a business card and handed it over: "I'm from 'Yixing Culture', come here. Attend a conference on the art of photography."

Charlie is still vigilant. He doesn't know what Yixing culture is, but when it comes to people in photography, it can be considered an intersection with them, so before he fully understands, Charlie still regards Yang Yi as a competitor.

The business card that Yang Yi gave was a relatively common business card. It did not write Yang Yi's specific position in the company. The phone number was the number of a spare mobile phone that Yang Yi bought in Chuhua City.

Charlie didn't care after looking at the business card. Out of courtesy, he didn't throw the business card in the trash immediately, but put it in his pocket. Now he wants to leave with the cat quickly.

Seeing that the other party had no intention of continuing to talk at all, Yang Yi stopped talking. After the other party left with the cat riding a small electric motor, Yang Yi thought about the scene just now. The other party's obvious guarded eyes when he knew that he was a photographer made Yang Yi guess the possible answer. The business card he gave was just out of curiosity, and the movie he invested in also involved some cat shots, but the cats in it needed precious breeds, like the black domestic cat just now that was not in Yang Yi The scope of consideration, the original plan was to find some trained cats with a bit of spirituality. After seeing the words "Clearly such a pet center" printed on the bag just now, I thought that it would be good to cooperate with such a pet center if possible. , this is just his act on a whim.

After asking people to check the pet center, Yang Yi returned to the hotel and watched most of the advertisements and videos taken by Xiao Guo and the others. He didn't sleep all night, thinking about the video. He suddenly had an idea, but such an idea would have to go to the person in charge of the pet center first.

Yang Yi didn't wait long, and the next day he received a call from Xiao Guo.

It turned out that after Charlie took Zheng Tan to the pet center, because the temperature in the room was a little higher and it was a little stuffy, Charlie kept his coat in the place where he put clothes next to, and the business card in the coat slipped out at that time. No one cared at that time. Xiao Guo found it when he was putting away his clothes. He picked it up and looked at it. When he saw the word "Yixing Culture" on it, he was immediately excited.

Xiao Guo himself made a lot of money from advertising and videos. He also rented a cat to a small crew to shoot a TV series. He naturally knows the professional and commercialized circle. Yixing Culture is one of them. I know who "Yang Yi" above is and what position he holds in Yixing Culture, but since this company is involved, it means that there are potential business opportunities. Not caring about anything else, Xiao Guo immediately called Charlie over to ask what happened at the time.

Charlie didn't hide it, he said it all, it was only a few minutes at the time anyway.

Seeing Boss Guo's unpredictable expression, Charlie beat a drum in his heart.

"Boss, is Yixing culture very good? Could it be... They also shoot commercials? How does it compare to our studio?" Charlie asked. In his mind, their studio is the best in the circle, of course, it is limited to the circle of shooting cat commercials.

Xiao Guo tapped Charlie's head with the magazine in his hand, "You know what, the difference between our studio and others is the difference between braised beef instant noodles and braised beef!"

Charlie: "..." Isn't that the difference between Diaosi and Gao Fushuai

Looking at the two-dollar bag of braised beef instant noodles with little beef on the table next to him, Charlie stopped talking.

After thinking about it all night, Xiao Guo made a phone call in the morning.

After receiving Xiao Guo's call, Yang Yi also had a profile after listening to the other party's self-introduction. When he investigated the pet center, he checked several key figures in it and knew what role Xiao Guo played in the team.

The two made an appointment. Yang Yi came to the pet center, walked around under the leadership of Xiao Guo, and also asked about Zheng Tan, but Xiao Guo could say everything else, but when it came to Zheng Tan, he didn't want to. Saying too much, or after Yang Yi revealed his identity, he said the secret.

Because Zheng Tan has always been relatively low-key, although there are many people in the cat circle who know "BlackC", but they can't match the number, and because of Xiao Guo's deliberate concealment, he can't find Zheng Tan's true information. Since he was met by the big boss of Yixing Culture this time, and the other party also wanted to cooperate, Xiao Guo also revealed something.

Yang Yi did not immediately decide on cooperation matters, he wanted to know more about the situation during the shooting. To this end, Xiao Guo invited Yang Yi to watch the next shooting.

Yang Yi's heart was itching for a long time, and he really wanted to see how the photos were taken and the performance of those cats. The performance of many cats in those videos seemed perfect to him, especially the black cat. Moreover, although he usually takes some animal photos, there is definitely a gap between him and the professional pet shooting team. Just like his grandfather back then, he was not good at taking pictures of people and scenes, but he was able to take pictures of cats.

So, after Yang Yi left Chuhua City for a while, he flew over again during a new round of shooting at the Pet Center.

Zheng Tan was taken aback when he saw Yang Yi at the filming location. He had an impression of this person, but he did not know why Xiao Guo allowed him to watch. Generally speaking, Xiao Guo does not allow others to enter the filming location unless it was him. People you really trust. And this...

Looking at Xiao Guo's performance, Zheng Tan felt that Xiao Guo was a little cautious when he treated Yang Yi, and it seemed that Yang Yi's background was not small.

No matter what the other party's background Zheng Tan is not interested in, his responsibility is to do today's work well.

At the beginning of the shooting, Xiao Guo's previous cautiousness was gone, and he completely entered the previous state. He directly left Yang Yi aside, and almost forgot about such a person.

Yang Yi didn't care that he was left out. He paid attention to the black cat under the camera, as well as the other cats and dogs who played other roles. I have to admit that the professional team is better than others. Which cat can't fall asleep without holding something, which cat will start to cheer up at what time, which cat will hate what smells and how will it behave after smelling it, etc. There is a spectrum, and since the establishment of the team, the team has a deep understanding of the cats that are often under the camera in the studio. The shooting efficiency is high and the effect is satisfactory. Xiao Guo said that the black cat is the trump card here. It's true, just look at the performance of these cats. It's a pity that because of the breed issue, it was impossible for the cat to appear in that movie, and only other cats could be used. According to the script in the movie, it must be a famous cat.

However, the fact that the black cat couldn't play the role in the movie fulfilled Yang Yi's thought.

Yang Yi likes to shoot, mostly influenced by his grandfather. Yang Yi had the idea of making a documentary about the city, people and cats a long time ago. The documentary will record real life, show the pulse and life of the times, and show and record the real side of the background of the times. An element that also enhances the visibility of documentaries, which will make many people who are not interested in documentaries take a look. It's just that it's more difficult, and I haven't been able to put it into practice. After the old man passed away, when he looked at the photos in the thick albums, Yang Yi's idea became stronger.

Looking at the well-behaved black cat in front of the camera, the smile on Yang Yi's face grew bigger and bigger.

Zheng Tan, who was filming the commercial, suddenly felt a chill on his back and almost made a mistake when jumping. Fortunately, he was experienced and mentally strong, so he quickly calmed down.

After the shooting, Yang Yi and Xiao Guo had a secret conversation in the room, talking about Zheng Tan, Xiao Guo shook his head, "I can't control this, you have to go to the cat's father and get the consent of his family, otherwise it will be fine. You forcibly took it away, and it won't cooperate, and it will let you know what a cat's paw is."

After that, Yang Yi and Xiao Guo signed a contract, and the movie borrowed a cat and chose a cat with rich shooting experience from the team to go there. The cat's life also makes it more compatible with the shoot. As for Zheng Tan, Yang Yi went directly to the door to discuss.

Jiao's father and Jiao's mother are very troubled, even if they are shooting commercials, Xiao Guo is an acquaintance and knows the bottom line, and agrees to keep Zheng Tan's real information secret. how much impact. Just as Xiao Guo himself has always believed, the commercials of cat food and related products are just a small matter compared to those professional films and TVs. If you really participate in the filming of a film and TV and occupy a lot of space, That degree is different. Moreover, the filming location for the commercials here is close to home. If Yang Yi takes over the job, Zheng Tan will probably be away from home for a long time.

Judging from Zheng Tan's trouble-making virtue, Jiao's father and Jiao's mother are really worried.

It was not easy to convince the Jiao family, Yang Yi did not expect to encounter such obstacles.

Lure it for profit

I'm sorry, the Jiao family is not as poor as others think, and they are not so fanatical about money, so they don't eat this.

Intimidation

In Xiao Guo's words, that cat will let you know what a cat's paw is.

Let's grind it until the Jiao family agrees.

Yang Yi originally planned to fly back to the capital tomorrow, but he changed his mind because of this incident, playing emotional cards, talking about some emotional things, about art, about human relationships, about cats, and saying that this film promotes the love of cats. This time, more people will like and understand such a race that has penetrated into human society, has a bad temper, and is difficult to understand.

In the end, the Jiao family let go, but this was just a letdown. In the end, it was decided that Zheng Tan's own meaning was still needed. After Zheng Tan himself agreed, Jiao's father replied to Yang Yi and agreed to play the role.

After Yang Yi finished talking, he looked at the sunlight outside the window for a while, then picked up his mobile phone and turned over the photo album in his mobile phone. There was an old photo copied, and there was an old man smiling happily. On the old man's shoulders stood a yellow and white domestic cat. The cat leaned on the old man's head affectionately, raised his chin slightly and looked at the camera, with a lazy look down.

Some people say that people in the capital are more arrogant than the emperor's feet, but they also have the enthusiasm in the alleys, while the cats in the capital have the spiritual energy of the Forbidden City, but also carry the ruffian energy of the courtyard.

That black cat should be able to perform the effect you want, right? Yang Yi thought.
