Chapter 249 Preparations for Filming
Beijing-Tianyu Group Headquarters Building.
This more than 30-storey building is the headquarters building of Tianyu Group, which involves many industries. It is one of the many giant landmark buildings in Beijing. Every year, countless young people in China are proud to graduate and become employees of Tianyu. , but after all, very few get what they want.
Generous annual salary, broad development, symbol of successful people, unimaginable connections, resources, etc. are all synonymous with Tianyu.
Located in the most prosperous area of the central city of Beijing, many people are proud to walk into this building.
At this moment, it is on the 17th floor of Tianyu headquarters.
A reception room with an open glass wall and magnificent decoration. You can stand by the window and look down from the height of the seventeenth floor, watching the prosperity of the capital and the rushing crowds.
Understand the status and strength symbolized by the power and wealth held in this position.
At this moment, in the reception room, there is a foreign male figure sitting on one side of the high-end chair. He is frowning, his serious expression has a serious and rigid expression, and he is examining something. On the other side, he is waiting quietly. Women in the workplace whose opinions dictate.
After a long time, he put down the planning proposal in his hand, frowned, but still did not let go. The middle-aged face with glasses looked at the woman opposite, and then said:
"I'm sorry, Ms. Yan, I am not prepared to accept your invitation. You can try to find someone else."
"Director Oens, please think again. We at Tianyu are very sincere about this."
Sister Yan looked at him very sincerely, hoping that he would change his mind.
The man opposite shook his head and sighed, then raised his head and still refused with a bit of stubbornness:
"Of course I can feel your sincerity. You specially sent someone to pick me up in the United States and spent tens of thousands of dollars to take me around China just so that I could sit here and discuss your proposal."
"so..."
Sister Yan's eyes were filled with hope. Just when she was about to speak, she saw Oens wave his hand, with the pickiness and pride of his profession in his eyes.
"However, I cannot accept such a bribe, because I don't see anything worthy of my expectations in your plan."
Oens's words were rude, but he still stubbornly continued:
"Top equipment, sufficient funds, and everything I need? What's the value of that? In my opinion, what you gave me is not even as good as this girl who plays the leading role and is like a diamond in the rough."
"You guys give me the impression that you just want to spend a lot of money to make a promotional film to pave the way for this girl, and then add my name to the production introduction. This is not a movie at all, nor can it be called art, and I will not make it. This kind of thing."
Oens put everything that Sister Yan gave him on the table and finished with a firm tone.
"Film is an art. Whether it is as majestic as an imperial epic, or as insignificant as straw in a pasture, every film should convey an idea, or a move that resonates emotionally."
"That's what I've been pursuing."
At this point, he already had the tendency to get up and leave.
Sitting in front of him, Sister Yan could clearly feel the strong dissatisfaction in his words, and then looked at the stack of scripts and plans on the table with a wry smile.
As the other party said, Tianyu really wants to use money to make a big-budget movie this time, so as to make Shui Lianxin's popularity even higher.
That's why I found him.
Ornes Kamel is one of the most well-known directors in the world. His life experience is legendary. Any movie that passes through his hands is bound to be a hit and has a shocking flavor. He has won several awards in the film industry. Top award.
However, like many artistic masters, Oens is very strict with the movies he takes on!
No one knows what standards he has in mind. How many sponsors have been turned away with sky-high sponsorship prices? How many well-known actors have been replaced from the crew because of his "inappropriate" words?
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that Oens is so successful and famous today.
But his stubbornness, awkwardness and reputation for being difficult to deal with have also made him famous along with his reputation.
Sister Yan looked at the top director in front of her and smiled bitterly, saying that she finally understood the meaning of this sentence.
Any other director would have agreed to this condition long ago, but the non-stubborn person in front of me was clamoring about art and pursuits, and while refusing, he expressed contempt and disdain.
This is so difficult that Sister Yan can't look straight at it.
Want to make a commercial movie?
There is no shortage of fame, money, or anything else. He just wants to make better movies and pursue a higher level of art. He has clearly told you a fact through his actions.
You've got the wrong person.
"Then that's it, Ms. Yan, I will have my assistant transfer the cost of this trip to your account later."
Oens glanced at his watch and said, then prepared to stand up.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Oens, at least watch the footage of our trial before making a decision!"
Sister Yan hurriedly got up to try to stay, making her last effort.
Oens frowned and moved his throat, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, perhaps the tens of thousands of dollars played a role in his sincerity in inviting him over. He still did not speak, sat down without getting up, and signaled. The other party, hurry up.
"It'll be ready soon. It won't take you too much time."
Seeing that the other party agreed, it was like an unexpected joy. Sister Yan quickly opened the big screen and called up a video.
This is a cut video. She hired the top team to optimize, edit, and add music to the video to enhance its expressiveness.
Oens sat on the sofa, sighing in his heart that he shouldn't have come. At the same time, he picked up the cup of fragrant tea and planned to leave after watching it casually.
The video is not long, and it can be seen that the editing is good. In the video is the a cappella singing of the girl who Tianyu Group requested to be the starring role.
Although he couldn't understand Chinese, he could tell it was a good melody.
Originally he thought it was a short video promoting the girl's image, but slowly Oens's hand froze, and his eyes gradually widened as he watched the video.
The moment it ends at the end of the video singing!
The girl wearing a starry skirt slowly put down the microphone in her hand, and then the big screen more than ten meters high behind her suddenly shattered, and the dark Hummer rushed out ferociously!
The panic of the crowd, the chaos of the scene, and the shock and turmoil of tens of thousands of people were clearly revealed at this moment!
The dark Hummer rushed towards the girl with explosions of sparks and wreckage.
Finally, the hem of the jet-black dress unfolds, the silver hair flutters, the dragon wings spread out, and the video ends.
Sister Yan was a little helpless. The video she released was naturally the video of the Los Angeles concert that night, which was also the reason why she had no choice but to make a movie about Shui Lianxin.
But now it seems that there are many difficulties.
With no expectations left in her heart, Sister Yan turned to look at Oens, but she saw a scene that surprised her.
Oens' hand holding the cup froze in mid-air, and he looked at the big screen as if he was stunned, his face full of shock.
