Chapter 963 Breaking things(1/3)

When they arrived in Pingjing, Yang Jingxing and Pang Xi began to work non-stop. Although they only had a few million investment, there were too many large and small matters.

There are more than a dozen main actors. The most expensive one is paid 500,000 yuan, followed by 300,000 yuan. Then the dancer who is backed by investors gets 200,000 yuan, and the rest are tens of thousands or even thousands. Those two

A dog is still relatively expensive, at 15,000, but the dog drama has basically been completed...

Not to mention the 200,000 yuan one, Wu Mingyang thinks that the 500,000 yuan and 300,000 yuan are exaggerated, but it is because he has a lot of money and he is a well-known actor, so he took this job that seems to have no future.

's play.

The contract signed before can no longer be pursued. Director Kong Yafei and Yang Jingxing did not add to the 300,000 yuan remuneration for the script. They only added 100,000 yuan to Wu Mingyang. Wu Mingyang refused to take it at first, saying

I'm already getting paid for doing things for Du Lin.

Wu Mingyang and Kong Yafei have been cooperating quite closely during this period. The shooting cycle and the crew's itinerary have been planned. They will first spend three to five days filming the indoor scenes in Pingjing, and then move to rural Tangshan for up to two days. Finally,

Qinhuangdao, where the story in the script takes place, is also Kong Yafei’s hometown, and more than 60% of the exterior scenes were shot there.

Even compared with Wu Mingyang, who is not very senior at all, Weiyi Company's layman's unprofessionalism is clearly revealed. Before, Weiyi actually asked the company's clerks to take care of the costumes and props. Wu Mingyang was determined to hire someone with some experience again.

No matter how poor the crew is, fortunately, the rich one is the boss, and now Luo Yiqing can only hang around behind Kong Yafei and Wu Mingyang.

The movie has also been renamed, "Happy Dog". Kong Yafei chose it himself. Judging from the re-submitted script, it seems a bit ironic, but it has more warmth because the ending is considered a comedy.

On the morning of the 17th, the creative team held a meeting in Weiyi. Yang Jingxing expressed his apology to everyone for taking so long and wasting everyone's time...

The ones whose time is precious should be the few leading actors. They are complaining a bit, but now they can continue filming, their salaries are fully paid, the script has been revised well, and the movie is expected to be released in theaters, so they don't embarrass the producers too much.

In the afternoon, the crew arrived at the film and television base. A group of people even pretended to have a start-up ceremony, and then started filming the last scene in the movie, which was also the most difficult scene. As Kong Yafei's follower, Yang Jingxing was much better than when he was in the movie.

Pu Hai was very active and attentive when filming the MV.

Three couples, different ages, different birth and growth environments, different educational levels... It's a group scene of six people plus a dog. Although Kong Yafei had already divided the shots in great detail before, and the actors' positions, movements, and other things were all planned very well.

But there are still many variables in real-life shooting. Fortunately, film is not used.

Yang Jingxing has now begun to understand that movies are not so easy to make. They are all about details and attention to detail, and they also require sufficient theoretical knowledge... It is always much more difficult than making pop music.

Maybe it was because the biggest investor was so diligent and obviously had a good relationship with the director, so the rest of the crew was too embarrassed to deal with it.

After they all became familiar with each other, Yang Jingxing started to stir up the atmosphere. For example, after the dancer had done it ten or twenty times in a row, Yang Jingxing started telling jokes that made fun of the director, which made the dancer wink.

After finishing work in the evening, Yang Jingxing and Kong Yafei continued to discuss art in a small hotel room where they were saving money.

On the 18th, Yang Jingxing turned 21. Liu Miao and Xia Xue insisted on going to the film and television base the day before. Yang Jingxing firmly disagreed, so today Liu Miao's birthday greetings turned into curses.

Of course, parents are still the warmest and most caring, but Xiao Shuxia is not all motherly love. She regrets it and scolds Yang Jingxing for asking for it. She is embarrassed to tell others that her son is still a bachelor to this day.

At noon, Yang Jingxing, who was watching the monitor behind the director's butt, received a text message from Wang Rui: All the beautiful girls in 306 wish Aguai a happy birthday and good luck in his career.

Yang Jingxing replied: Thank you, beautiful girls.

In the evening, Wang Rui called again and asked if Yang Jingxing was colorful enough today and how many blessings he had received. There must be many people in Pingjing to accompany him, right?

Yang Jingxing told the truth, he really didn't have time: "...Your text message is a big surprise, which makes me very ashamed. When is your birthday?"

Wang Ruihe: "You are different, you are ours, and I am Lao Bi's... Actually, I planned to tell you again in the evening, but these days you have been a legend in New York. I can only talk online on weekends, Guo

Ling and Pianpian just came from school at noon and started a big discussion, and they also wanted to ask Kong Chenhe to come over as a witness."

Yang Jingxing laughed: "I'll just say it, others have to say good things."

Wang Rui blamed: "Of course you are fine. They all doubted me and said that I have become stricter like you. In fact, you didn't say anything to me. You have wronged me!"

Yang Jingxing laughed: "I'm sorry."

Wang Rui was pleasantly surprised again: "Hey, let me tell you, it was the boss who mentioned it. He said it was your birthday today and he asked me to represent you."

Yang Jingxing: "Nonuo has a really good memory."

Wang Rui Gaomi: "Of course she knows. Pretending that she remembered it at that time, she must always remember it, so she can't deceive me. She also said that she would draw a clear line with you and would not accept you as a member of 306, so she asked me to be the representative...

In fact, we all know it, we all pretend it, and no one says anything! Hypocrisy!"

Yang Jingxing laughed: "You can't judge others by yourself."

"Okay!" Wang Rui got angry: "Who am I sneaking for? I resisted so hard at that time, and they almost beat me up in a group, they all forced me!"

Yang Jingxing felt a little loyal: "Okay, if you dare to bully Ruirui... ask Lao Bi to take action!"

Wang Rui said again: "Tell me, if I refuse to die, will the boss call you himself?"

Yang Jingxing was very optimistic: "I might send you a polite text message...so I feel more comfortable seeing you, I have it all."

"If you are in Puhai..." Wang Rui was silent for a moment, then asked: "Where is Yu Xinting? Have you called me?"

Yang Jingxing suggested: "Say something happy."

Wang Rui also wanted to strike multiple times: "Tao Meng... they haven't arrived yet, it's still morning! Maybe at noon or evening..."

Yang Jingxing said: "It's just my birthday. I was so busy that I almost forgot."

Wang Rui just said something happy, Aguai is in Julia's legend...

Yang Jingxing is really busy. He has to be distracted and multi-purpose, giving advice on the arrangement of Zhao Gu's new songs, continuing to communicate with Tang Xiaoxiao about music concepts, and even following Zhang Yingyi's wishes to learn from South Korea's advanced experience. kmidoo's single MV in South Korea has been released.

It is said to be very successful, at least much better than the banga form which has been almost abandoned.

Li Ying, who has been waiting to meet Yang Jingxing, now has no choice but to go online and watch the video of the composition of "Walking with You". Moreover, it is edited and written by professionals.

Yang Jingxing watched it. There were two videos in total. One was the children singing by themselves, and the other was Li Ying's recording. Combined with the positive video clips of the children and the happy interactions with these charity people, it was indeed quite effective. Especially

In the video where the children sing by themselves, the final part of the song "Walking with You" is accompanied by a picture of children helping their parents, teachers, and charity people to do what they can. It should make me tear up.

of.

It's a pity that this video is not operated by a company, and the number of views is simply appalling.

Before leaving Pingjing, Yang Jingxing went to meet Xia Xue and Liu Miao and made an appointment to go back to Jiuchun for a few days during the summer vacation.

On May 24th, the crew of "Happy Dog" arrived in Qinhuangdao. By this time, the crew was relatively united. Everyone was very positive during the meeting. The leading actors began to discuss changing their lines with the director, and the dancers seemed to have found careers as film actors.

feeling.

Kong Yafei's professionalism was obvious to everyone, and Yang Jingxing's diligence and positivity also received a lot of recognition. Wu Mingyang saw that Yang Jingxing really liked movies, so he further explained the situation to him and gave him suggestions on how to do specific distribution.

There are areas where he can work hard, but the more he talks about it, the more difficult it becomes for Yang Jing to act. There are so many ways to do it, no wonder Du Lin advises him not to wade into troubled waters.

On the 25th, Yang Jingxing received a call from Kang Youcheng. Even though Yang Jingxing had no time and was not in Puhai, Kang Youcheng still said after thinking for a long time: "Can you lend me some money?"

Yang Jingxing: "You have an annual salary of hundreds of thousands, and you are one of the top 500 companies in the world..."

Kang Youcheng said: "I can mortgage my home property certificate to you. Don't worry, I am..."

Yang Jingxing asked: "What difficulties did you encounter?"

Kang Youcheng was silent for a moment: "...can you lend me 250,000?"

Yang Jingxing said: "You treat me as a friend when you talk to me. Can I ask?"

Kang Youcheng was still unwilling: "...can I tell you later?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Two hundred and fifty thousand is a lot less. Should I buy a car or a house?"

Kang Youcheng was impatient: "Can I borrow it? Just a word." He was obviously humble and anxious.

Yang Jingxing hesitated for a moment: "I'll give you a call. My friend's surname is Pang. Please write the IOU."

Kang Youcheng, yes, there are still conditions: "Don't tell others...I...will pay you back by the end of next year at the latest. I've seen the bank loan interest rate, it's about 6%..."

Yang Jing dressed boldly: "Don't say so much, I still want to ask you what you want to do?"

Kang Youcheng thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, I still have my parents, so I won't do anything..."

Yang Jingxing said: "No matter what you do, I advise you to consider it carefully."

Kang Youcheng was a little grateful: "I know, I've thought about it...Thank you."

Yang Jingxing said, "Okay, if you're in a hurry, I'll call you right away."

Kang Youcheng was polite: "Then it's best... don't worry... don't tell others."

Yang Jingxing replied, "I know, I'll send you a text message and you'll call me in five minutes."

Kang Youcheng, thank you again.

Although it was easy to borrow the 250,000 yuan from Kang Youcheng, Yang Jingxing was already quite good at managing the crew's financial accounts. He would not let go of small accounts of one or two thousand, and he could even roughly estimate the power of Wei in the early stage.

What kind of tricks were done during the filming? Fortunately, now both Kong Yafei and Wu Mingyang are from Eyang, and Luo Yiqing, who looks elegant and bookish, no longer tries to make a fuss, and just acts as a cashier.

This is also due to the fact that the atmosphere among the crew is getting better and better, the filming is going relatively smoothly, and it seems that there is still a balance of funds. If nothing goes wrong, the film will be completed in early June and will be released in late July or early August.

In Wu Mingyang's view, distribution is even more important than production. He followed the crew these days and worked hard to solve many problems and overcome many difficulties with everyone. He seemed to have more feelings or confidence in the film, so

I discussed with Yang Jingxing how to increase the issuance.

Yang Jingxing's only resource at present is the Internet, but Wu Mingyang thinks it is not possible. In his opinion, those who go online only watch pirated movies and will not enter the cinema.

The 28th is the Dragon Boat Festival, and Kong Yafei’s parents brought rice dumplings to the crew. Kong Yafei also has a sister, and his parents are considered old. They are both ordinary working-class people. It is obvious that Yang Jingxing has helped Kong Yafei a lot, so we started chatting with him.

I was very grateful, but Kong Yafei himself never said those words.

At dinner time on the 29th, Kong Yafei was taking the crew to taste hometown delicacies, and the two tables were laughing and laughing. Yang Jingxing was the one with the busiest phone calls among the crew, so everyone saw him leaving the people who were toasting and suddenly getting up without any problem.

strangeness.
