"Okay, this is where you will live for the next three months." A receptionist opened the door, led Zheng Tan and his party into the house, and said. This person was sent here by Yang Yi. Yang Yi has already arranged his residence. There are three bedrooms and one living room, which is enough to accommodate Zheng Tan and the people he brought here. ¡°Look, what else do you need?¡± the man asked. Charlie looked around, especially the room arranged for Zheng Tan. As an "assistant", Charlie had been serving Zheng Tan for several years, and he already knew Zheng Tan's preferences very well. He could tell at a glance what was suitable for him. no. Obviously Yang Yi still values ??Zheng Tan very much, and Charlie is very satisfied with the layout of the room. When arranging the house, Yang Yi asked Charlie and Jiao¡¯s father about it. Naturally, there were no things that Zheng Tan hated, such as disgusting food, certain smells, etc. Protective nets have also been newly installed on window sills to prevent accidents. "Not yet." Charlie said with satisfaction. "Okay, if you need anything, just call me." The man exchanged contact information with Charlie, talked about the daily arrangements, and then left. He also had to report to Yang Yi and arrange follow-up arrangements. things. Even though he was very curious about the black cat, he still endured it. As one of Yang Yi's confidants, he knew what to ask and what not to ask. It's okay to be curious, but you have to be measured. In addition to Charlie, there were four other people who came with Zheng Tan this time. They were not all here to "serve" Zheng Tan. Charlie was enough. They came at the request of Yang Yi and Kong Han. Some of them were in the small room. Guo's studio serves as a lighting engineer, and someone serves as a sound effects engineer. No matter which one, they are experienced in shooting cats, so they know what kind of light will affect the cat's mood when shooting. There are also studies on cat meows, such as which sounds can cause disturbance to cats. In Zheng Tan¡¯s opinion, many of these are redundant, but Yang Yi and Kong Han wanted to come over, and Xiao Guo personally sent the message. Zheng Tan didn't care too much. He wasn't the one who paid the salary anyway, so why worry so much. Even though his current profession is pet photography, most of the people in Xiao Guo¡¯s studio have a professional background and know this industry very well. The movie hasn¡¯t started shooting yet, so everyone is sitting on the sofa watching TV. While they were discussing, Zheng Tan occupied a sofa chair to himself and listened to their chat. This city is close to the sea and is quite prosperous. I heard that it is Kong Han¡¯s hometown. The choice of filming location was made by Kong Han, the screenwriter and director. A while ago, some people were criticizing the "writer-director" phenomenon. Said this would result in a film with "no depth and low creativity". ??Actually, speaking of it, this script is indeed not innovative. Some comics and novels have similar plots, but Kong Han seems to have his own obsession, just like when Yang Yi made the documentary. Just one opportunity can make them pick up this obsession that is deep in their hearts again. I heard that Kong Han was also a cat owner back then and had been raising cats since he was a child. Another person with a story. The high floors of this community arranged by Yang Yi can see the sea. Yang Yi has arranged people from the 18th floor to the 20th floor. Zheng Tan and the others are on the 20th floor. From the living room window, they can see the distance. sea. Zheng Tan looked at the window next to him. The sky outside the window was bluer than that in Chuhua City. Obviously, the environment and air quality here were much better than those in Chuhua City. Charlie and those people were discussing the news they knew. The actors for this movie have been roughly decided. When they were in the elevator just now, they saw someone who looked like an agent, and they recognized it intuitively. "Hey, tell me, has Wei Wen arrived?" A man about the same age as Charlie asked expectantly. When a few men got together, the first thing they discussed was naturally women, with Wei Wen as the starring role. Naturally, it was one of the focuses of their discussion. In addition to Wei Wen, they also discussed several supporting actresses. "I didn't see Wei Wen, but when I went to park the car, I saw a girl who caused an uproar every time she moved." The person who spoke also stretched out his hand to gesture to his chest, with a look of wretchedness on his face. ¡°Are you also from the crew?¡± Several other people asked with bright eyes. The man shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like it." The other people suddenly became weak, but soon got excited and discussed the other actors. As he was talking, the doorbell rang. Charlie, who was closest to the door, looked at the door through the peephole and gestured to the people on the sofa. The few of them looked at each other and acted quickly, without any of the obscenity they had when discussing some inappropriate topics for children. They had no choice but to be cautious. If something went wrong, they would just pack up and get out. Before coming, Xiao Guo told them that the crew was not their working group, nor was it the group that originally made the documentary. There may be many little tricks in it. A cat can't guard against anything, so it will naturallyWe cope. It's not that they maliciously speculate on people's hearts. People's hearts are unpredictable. It's always better to be cautious. No one wants to build a ladder for others and harm their own interests. What came in was a woman who looked to be in her twenties. Women always make men less defensive. This woman was wearing casual clothes, with black hair reaching her shoulders. Although she was not particularly good-looking, her eyes were crooked when she smiled, which made her look very lovable. "Sorry to bother you, I live downstairs. My surname is Yang, Yang Huaixi, from Yixing Culture. Are you also from the crew of "Black Cat"?" The woman surnamed Yang introduced herself. She is one of several people downstairs. The agent of the young actor is just here to check in with me. They didn¡¯t chat much. After chatting with Charlie and others for a while, they put down the gifts and left. After closing the door, Charlie and the others began to discuss again. "You bring a gift when you come to visit? It's high-end tea!" "You're trying to find out what's true, right?" "You have the same last name as the big boss in Yixing" "I guess it doesn't matter. If there is a connection, why do you need to come to find out in person?" " That's true." "But it's better to be more careful. I think someone downstairs is trying to use our family to trickZT." Zheng Tan only listened to Charlie and the others' discussion. The sofa chair faced the window. When Yang Huaixi came in, he didn't see Zheng Tan due to the angle. Zheng Tan didn't care about those people. What he was thinking about now was what Father Jiao told him when he left Chuhua City. When we were filming the documentary, Dad Jiao said that we shouldn¡¯t be too ¡°smart¡±. You have to be able to "make mistakes", and making movies has higher technical requirements for "making mistakes", so Zheng Tan is thinking about how to make "making mistakes" more naturally. Compared with Zheng Tan, who was leisurely thinking about what went wrong, the protagonists and supporting actors were much more nervous. Especially the newcomers who are selected this time, they are afraid that something will go wrong when the time comes, and a mistake may reduce the good impression of the director and the big boss on them. Of course, making good friends with the crew, especially some of the more important characters, is also of great benefit to the young actors. Otherwise, Yang Huaixi would not come up to inquire about the situation. While they were testing each other at the temporary residence, on the other side, Yang Yi was chatting with Kong Han after listening to the report of his subordinates. Although Kong Han has not made many films, the response is pretty good, but he is young. I haven't worked hard to achieve a satisfactory reputation in China. Kong Han likes to use newcomers. The protagonist of this film is not a real big name. Many people in the circle think that the so-called popular niche is just a joke. There are many short-lived flashes in the pan, not to mention that he is famous as an idol, and Several important supporting characters are people whose names people have never heard of, and there are also several new signings. certainly. Most of them are owned by Yixing Culture. Yang Yi is rich. If he invests money to support his own people, others will not say anything. As for who will really be praised then, it all depends on their performance. There are no superstars in this drama. Yang Yi, the big boss of Yixing Culture, came to watch the filming in person. The Yixing actors knew what this meant, so they were nervous. Kong Han and Yang Yi are both people with high standards. Kong Han feels that computer stunts in movies can, to a certain extent, make up for the actors' incompetence in certain difficult or dangerous actions, but they will never be able to perform the unique and charming expressions of the actors. Many famous actors often reach the state of perfection with a smile and a look in their eyes, making people remember them in their hearts. therefore. Kong Han always felt that using real cats for this film would be more effective without some computer special effects. As for Yang Yi, his focus is not on this film. Unlike the documentary that really puts effort into expressing feelings, the upcoming film is just a channel. It was a performance opportunity he provided to his actors. Yixing Culture is not as good as those entertainment giants with some history, so Yang Yi wants to create stars and create his own superstars who belong to Yixing Culture. The top of the professional actor pyramid is a very rare number of superstar-level actors. There are many stars from all walks of life in China, but the number of real movie stars is very small, and there are even fewer superstars who can bring investment trust and box office returns. In the domestic film market, the number of real superstars who can attract audiences to the cinema is extremely rare. There are only about ten men and women, and this is the overall lineup of the Chinese film market formed after integrating resources from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places. Although the reputation of other actors seems to be popular, in fact they are not a guarantee of box office. They include many names that are familiar to the audience. At present, the value of superstars is more reflected in investment issues. When a movie can have a truly luxurious cast, the investment problem is immediately solved. When a movie has a group of big stars, its future box office can be predicted, and investmentPlayers will confidently invest huge sums of money, not only to pay actors, but also to use it in all aspects such as scenes, stunts, and equipment. Therefore, when a commercial film tries to gain some innovative possibilities in creation, it must be escorted by these big stars - for directors, this is often a very helpless reality. Kong Han is considered a minority in the director circle. But you can¡¯t tell for sure in the future. This is the rule of this business era. Superstars can make Yixing Culture truly prosperous in this circle. Once, when filming "City. Human. Cat", Yang Yi thought about making Zheng Tan a superstar. Sometimes, as long as it is done properly, animals can attract more box office than people. Now there is no proof that it will not be possible in the future. have. Unfortunately, his wish was not fulfilled. This could be seen from the reaction of the Jiao family during the documentary. When signing the contract for this movie, Yang Yi's idea was directly dismissed. "So, you want to watch those young people perform?" Kong Han looked at the person across the table. Yang Yi chuckled and said jokingly: "Actually, I'm looking forward to watching the seedlings play with a cat. Don't think that the cat will only do the actions required." However, Yang Yi guessed that the cat Probably have to hide his clumsiness.
