Chapter 1044 Win Over

It has been almost three years since Minghu Film and Television City was built and put into use. Currently, it has eight large studios. Not only Minghu Culture films will come to shoot, but also many crews from other film companies will also come to shoot - there is no shortage of film and television in China. There are any dynasty and theme, but there is only one large-scale studio like Minghu Film and Television City, where the crew can build their own sets according to their needs.

There are currently two restaurants in the film and television city, but they are all outsourced, and the one Li Qian and the others are eating at the moment is one of them. It is conceivable that when encountering Minghu Culture who comes to film a movie, the owner who is a little more sensible will know I am willing to give the company's directors and leaders a little special treatment, and open a small kitchen or something.

What's more, when other companies come to film movies, directors and leading actors can also get special treatment - to put it bluntly, this is just one of the business's means of attracting customers.

There is currently a luxurious hotel in Minghu Film and Television City, which is completely built and decorated according to the five-star standard. In addition, there are two ordinary dormitory buildings. The former is for big names, celebrities, and wealthy crews to live in, while the latter is the residence of ordinary staff and extras during filming. However, Minghu Culture did not manage and manage it by itself, but through bidding, put hotels and dormitories They are all entrusted to a hotel operating company to manage, conduct profit assessment every year, and collect their own part of the profit.

It is said that this is a business cooperation with a clear division of interests, but the hotel management has deliberately allocated a luxury suite on the top floor of the hotel with an area of ​​more than 200 square meters, and did not arrange for anyone else to stay in it, only leaving it to Li Qian. When I come to film, I live in an exclusive room, and there is no charge.

For those who do business, if they can't even handle this matter well, how can they do business well?

Of course, for the current Li Qian, he just brought this up on purpose, just to see Lu Lingxi give him an angry look.

Then, Li Qian smiled, and finally said in a serious manner: "Is the film finished?"

Lu Lingxi was surprised, but suddenly laughed again, "Didn't it be decided last time?"

Although Li Qian has been concentrating on filming in the film and television city recently, it is obviously impossible for him to completely let go of some things in the company. So about every week, I would throw the guide tube to Sun Yuting and run back for two days by myself.

Xie Bing and Wang Jingxue's new albums are about to be released—although Li Qian is Gu Dalue in the music department and won't take care of many specific things anymore, but these two are an exception. He must help listen to it of. Then, he also has to take care of the makeup of "A Chinese Ghost Story" and the preparation of "Crazy Racing". Although "Kung Fu Panda" is the director of Cao Zhan, he still has the name of producer, and it is necessary to keep an eye on the progress. , in the end, of course, it was Lu Lingxi who assisted the first-time film director to edit and pace my film.

In any literary and artistic work, rhythm is king.

Movies, especially commercial movies, pay more attention to rhythm.

In Hollywood, where the film industry is the most mature, the mature production mechanism even has strict regulations on how many seconds the script must complete within a given plot step.

This set of mechanisms may have little effect on geniuses, or even have a counterproductive effect, but it can help directors of average standards to stabilize the rhythm of storytelling to the greatest extent possible, so that the story will not be completely scattered and unwatchable—even though Domestically or internationally, there are many complaints about the method of Hollywood studios, but from the perspective of a film company, this is a good and effective method.

In fact, almost every successful commercial director has his own effective rhythm control ability-although it may not be exactly the same as Hollywood's set of metric standards, in fact, the laws behind it are generally infinite. Two.

As for Lu Lingxi's first film production, regardless of how talented she is, and regardless of how good Li Qian's script has been, when it comes to post-editing, Li Qian still has to take care of her.

In fact, for the films produced by Minghu Culture in recent years, even if Jin Han has his own way, he will leave the last step to Li Qian to check.

Up to now, this has been considered as the key point of "Minghu products must be high-quality goods".

In the movie "Autumn Fairy Tale", except for the rough selection of materials in the early stage, Li Qian didn't interfere, and every version that Lu Lingxi made later, Li Qian took the time to go back and watch, give advice, and then let her be in charge Continue to cut and refine—for a director, this step is extremely critical. It allows a director to "re-create" the story through this edit, the selection and combination of materials. "Create", and a master like Li Qian personally supervises and guides, for a new film director like Lu Lingxi, it will benefit her particularly greatly.

Of course, there will still be disputes.

It is a common occurrence in any film company that the producer and the director quarrel with each other because of a disagreement over a certain shot.

For example, the last time he went back, Lu Lingxi took out the so-called "final edited version". Lingxi insisted—Li Qian didn't force Lu Lingxi to cut according to his own requirements, because the problem at that time was basically not a problem. Change it or not, it doesn't matter much.

But the question has been raised after all.

However, judging from the meaning of Lu Lingxi's words, it is obvious that she has not changed.

Li Qian didn't bother anymore, and just laughed it off.

So he then changed the subject and asked, "Go out for a walk, did you have fun?"

It was also the last time when I went back to watch the film, Li Qian saw Lu Lingxi staying in the editing room for several months, and described it as a bit haggard, so he suggested that she wait for the film to be edited, go out for a walk, travel, and relax. She was really obedient in this matter. After the finishing touches, the movie was locked and she went abroad directly.

This walk around is half a month.

At this time Li Qian asked her, she leaned slowly on the backrest, and said with a smile: "Very good! I went to Paris, Milan, and Madrid. I found it very interesting and took a lot of photos. I made a special trip to Norway, and it was really... that empty feeling, so beautiful!"

Lu Lingxi is a great photographer!

Speaking of which, many of Li Qian and Fu Xuelong's photography skills and skills were taught by her hand in hand, so Li Qian's eyes lit up when he heard the words, "Take a lot of photos?"

Lu Lingxi nodded, "Yes."

Li Qian said with a smile: "Then you must wash it out and let me see it later. Let me take a look at those cities and places from another angle with your insightful eyes."

This flattery made Lu Lingxi very comfortable, and she was not humble, she nodded and said, "Okay! I will wash it out later and give you a copy."

After a pause, she suddenly said: "When I was in Paris, I knew your winery was in a grape-growing area in the south of France, and I wanted to go for a walk, but then I thought, I don't know anyone there. , you are not here, if I want to stay for two days, I have to call you, forget it."

Li Qian smiled and said: "If you want to live there, I'll ask someone to say hello to that side and pass your information to that side. You can go anytime you want in the future!"

Lu Lingxi smiled, glanced at him, and said after a while: "Then I will thank you!"

Li Qian said with a smile: "No thanks! Finding ways to win you big directors and actors who are already popular, try to win you over, so that you don't always want to change jobs, this is what I have been doing all the time!"

Lu Lingxi burst out laughing upon hearing this.

"Wrap me? Just like you?" She shook her head, looking like she wanted to laugh, "I didn't realize when you got me!"

Li Qian called Qu, "You said you want to make a movie, I don't care how busy I am, I will obediently go to film for you, listen to your instructions, you said you want to live in my winery for a few days, I can't wait to offer the winery with both hands, Live in whatever you want, and I will give it to you if you want it, isn’t that considered a win over?”

Lu Lingxi couldn't help laughing after hearing Li Qian's courtship in a funny manner on purpose. She unscrewed the water bottle and took a sip of water, and then said: "That's not considered to be a win-win! It's all just a trick for you to buy people's hearts! Evil capitalist!"

Li Qian was speechless.

At this time, the two looked at each other, as if they thought of something in unison, and then they both fell silent. After a while, Lu Lingxi asked in a low voice: "I heard that the company is going to start a studio?"

Li Qian nodded, his expression calmed down, and he said slowly: "Go ahead, the trend of the times. I have never been a person who does not change the past, follow the trend!"

Lu Lingxi thought about listening to the rumors Qin Jingjing and Liao Min said after she came back, especially "Li Qian deliberately suppressed Zhou Baoshan", but hesitated for a while, but she still decided not to say it.

Not to mention that Li Qian must have his own considerations in doing things. Simply saying that Qi Jie is there, this kind of thing must have gone through various considerations. One movie is enough to have the right to make suggestions on the company's operations.

But at this time, Li Qian took the initiative to say: "I know, there have been rumors in the company and in the industry recently. It is said that I deliberately suppressed Feng Bicheng and Zhou Baoshan. Both of them should be qualified to open a studio. Feng Bicheng, I didn't suppress him, he asked for it on his own initiative. Considering that their father already has a studio, he can be sheltered from the wind without him in the first batch head, I agreed. As for Zhou Baoshan... I am indeed suppressing him!"

After a pause, it seemed that this was the beginning of the conversation, and Li Qian simply continued: "But I just hope that he can take this opportunity to calm down and think about what I said to him! I thought he would understand Yes, but unexpectedly, he still chose to believe in himself!"

Speaking of this, he sneered, "As for what I said I was forcing him to quit, hehe, I don't know who deliberately spread this statement, but it has already reached my ears, which shows that they are really holding back I'm working hard on this matter. In fact, if Zhou Baoshan hadn't behaved fairly honestly, at least on the surface, and I've always been unwilling to make things difficult for others, and it wasn't their turn to jump up and down behind my back. !"

When he said these words, Li Qian suddenly had a murderous look on his face.

Even Lu Lingxi, who has known him for almost nine years and has a lot of experience in getting along with each other, rarely sees his expression like this - he has always been humble, low-key, and kind to others.

Suddenly, she stretched out her hand, patted his hand on the table, and said, "Don't be angry, it's no big deal! Outsiders know that he is an international superstar, but you know, he's just an empty shell."

Li Qian glanced at her in surprise.

Then, he pretended not to see Lu Lingxi's little hand on his own, sighed, took a puff on his pipe, and exhaled billowing smoke, saying: "If he wants to change jobs, I'm neither surprised nor will he." Sad, I'm just very sad, when I ran over to persuade him, he didn't take it to heart at all!"

Lu Lingxi pursed her lips.

In the end, Li Qian shook his head again, and sighed, "The field of vision is too narrow, I can only see the area in front of my eyes, I really can't help it."

Lu Lingxi pursed her lips, smiled, and withdrew her hand.

Li Qian smoked another cigarette, and then said: "Let's not talk about him anymore. Let's go and watch!" While talking, he put away the cigarette case, put it in his pocket, and said: "Let's go, go back to the studio."

Lu Lingxi froze for a moment, then suddenly called him back, "Hey, should you ask me why I'm here?"

Li Qian stopped and looked at her in surprise, "Didn't you come to visit the class?"

Lu Lingxi showed a wry smile helplessly, "Boss, are you confused about filming? It's already June! Remind you, it's June!"

Li Qian was stunned for a moment, then understood immediately, and couldn't help showing a wry smile.

He sat down again and said, "Okay, I really didn't think about it. "Autumn Fairy Tales" will be released soon, right? Are you scared?"

Lu Lingxi shrugged, "My film is so good, and there are masters to guide the post-editing, and you and Jingjing are the leading actors, you say, I will be afraid?"

Li Qian raised his eyebrows and laughed, "Then why did you come here?"

Lu Lingxi said: "Propaganda! Propaganda! I know you are busy, but if you have time to post a blog or something, let's warm up the movie first, and call your fans and fans by the way, right?"

Li Qian nodded, "Of course it's no problem!"

After a pause, he said: "I will find time to write something later, review the interesting things during the filming period, send it out, and warm up the film first. As for the promotion, you know, I don't care whether I am a director or a director. Actors, I've never been involved in that. ... It's too boring."

Lu Lingxi smiled and said: "I know! Others are afraid of not being famous, but you always hate yourself for being too famous. I know!"

Li Qian laughed again when he heard the words, and said, "Don't worry! We have a good relationship with all the TV stations, including you and Jingjing, and we have a good relationship with movie fans. No one will deliberately make it difficult for you. As for the box office, you don’t have to worry about it, it’s what it sells for!”

Lu Lingxi smiled and said, "With you here, I'm not worried!"
