Chapter 511 Ambition, Anxiety.
Minghu Culture, the top floor.
After completing the filming stage, Jin Han took a break for three to five days, and then devoted himself to the post-production of "On the Road". Up to now, the first cut is about to be completed.
For the editing of "On the Road", Jin Han didn't worry about anyone. He only asked his good friend Yang Bangxu to help, plus big Liu Liuqing, but these two people just gave him manual knives and decided every shot. He has always been himself, and he will not let anyone interfere in this regard.
He Runqing is practicing songs, Zhou Mo is also practicing songs, He Wei is busy rehearsing the arrangement of several albums, and Li Jinlong has gone out to the recording venue, because the next album that He Runqing is going to record needs a larger sound field, so it needs a larger sound stage. In a larger recording venue, Xie Mingyuan is busy preparing for Zhou Ye and Wang Nanhao's new album.
The distribution department and publicity department are busy with the launch of Rose Power's new album, the brokerage department is busy negotiating and investigating the commercial endorsements and TV drama and movie contracts of several newly signed actors such as Bai Yujing and Zhu Qiang, and Qi Jie is working on Busy with the licensing negotiations for "Legend of the New White Snake".
Even Zou Wenhuai, who has always been lazy, was busy arranging Rose Power's next promotional itinerary, and at the same time ran to Huaxia TV to discuss with Feng Kaige the scripts of the next few issues of "Ruoxuan Is Coming". See Deputy Director Huang Xiujuan and Director Zhao Yigu of the Variety Department, because they revealed that they want to renew "Ruoxuan is Coming" for another ten or twenty issues. And HUNAN Satellite TV has already begun to urge, asking Minghu Culture to send people to meet up as soon as possible, and prepare to start the preparations for "Super Girl".
Yesterday, Lao Zhao from the Ministry of Culture, that is, Director Zhao Sicun, just inspected on behalf of his superiors, and solemnly praised the film and television department and special effects department of Minghu Culture, expressing that the national level is very concerned about "Legend of the New White Snake", an excellent film and television that promotes national culture The work has always been strongly supported. Next, the government will continue to make efforts to solve the obstacles that affect and hinder the export of this TV series to foreign countries at the national level.
And as soon as he left, the personal assistant of the famous ghost director Liu Chengzhang ran over again, under the name of visiting the special effects department of Minghu Culture, but in fact, we learned from the prior communication that Liu Chengzhang's new film will start shooting, and it is said that it will take about two hours. Three thousand special effects shots, if all these shots are taken abroad, it will cost a lot of money, so he hopes to pick up the special effects studio he has on hand, and cooperate with the special effects department of Minghu Culture to jointly create The special effects part of his new film.
And just after these two, with the brilliance of "Legend of the New White Snake", many domestic film and television companies have noticed that Minghu Culture's special effects ability is definitely second to none in China today. Therefore, recently, in addition to various In addition to the big TV stations vying for the third round, there are also many film and television companies, large and small, all over the place. Some are directly negotiating the list, and some need to communicate in advance, expressing their hope that in the next works, The special effects department of Minghu Culture can provide full support for special effects production.
For these matters, Li Qian only stayed with Zhao Sicun for two hours when Zhao Sicun came to inspect on behalf of the cultural department of the government. For the rest, since Qi Jie had no time to be distracted, Li Qian simply left the matter to Han Shunzhang and Huang Wenjuan. Two "Min" are helping.
As for the others... Sun Meimei made a special call. Liao Liao's flight will arrive at the airport at 11:30 am the day after tomorrow, and Wang Jinglu is still busy with decoration. After the big red envelopes were given out here, she went all out and bought a sports car that she likes so much and has been thinking about for several years. When she bought it, she was accompanied by Wang Jinglu.
And she just followed Zhu Qiang and Bai Yujing recently and signed into the brokerage department of Minghu Culture. She wanted to invite Li Qian and Wang Jinglu to have a meal. She probably wanted to express her gratitude to Li Qian for his previous support. Closer to the relationship with the boss.
In short, there are so many things going on, if you really want to work, even if Li Qian has ten clones, he will not be able to keep busy.
But unfortunately, recently he feels that he is very boring.
After getting drunk, Yu Bojun has already started to pack his bags and prepare for his final departure. All the preparations he made for the movie "To Live", including a thick pile of footage, have been sent to Minghu Wenhua, the little beauty I just met recently, probably won't be easy to get rid of, he can only bite the bullet and take him back to Jinan Mansion, even in the past two years of playing in the band, he has recently bought a lot of good guitars , He only kept one for himself, Quan Zuo was thinking about it, and you gave away the others one after another. Li Qian alone, he gave away two.
If there are no accidents, after the premiere of "Scallion Love" in mid-October, you will never see him again in the entertainment industry. When we meet again, maybe everyone will call him "Mr. Yu".
As soon as he left, Cao Zhan seemed to be in a bit of a slump. It is said that he often hides at home and drinks alcohol lately—he is not like Yu Bojun. Yu Bojun doesn’t look like he is usually crazy, but in fact he is decent. He is completely acceptable to business elites. However, Cao Zhan was completely unwilling to do those things.
Moreover, although the Cao family is a big family in Shandong, he is neither the eldest son nor the eldest grandson. He will inherit a lot of property in the future, but he will definitely not become the leader of the next generation of the family.
So, seeing that he was trying to drink away his worries, Wang Huaiyu took the initiative to run to him and ask him to be the artistic director of his music concert.
And Feng Yumin was determined to stick to the TV series production center of Huaxia TV Station, and was ready to wait for an opportunity to compete for the position of the boss of the film and television company who would be separated in the future, so he reluctantly gave up "Farewell My Concubine".
All of this, summed up, made Li Qian feel quite depressed.
Yesterday, he put on sunglasses, ran to the street outside the Huaxia Drama Academy, and played the erhu for nearly two hours by himself, earning more than 70 yuan.
But today, he was so bored that he ran upstairs, got a cup of coffee, and watched Jin Han cut "On the Road".
To be honest, there is really nothing to see.
Editing itself is a rather boring job. If it is not someone who has a great love for movies, it is almost impossible to do this kind of work. What's more, this movie is controlled by Jin Han from the beginning to the end. The understanding of this movie is really limited. At this time, it is even more boring to move a chair to watch Lao Jin's clip.
However, no matter where you sit, your mind will be distracted. Li Qian prefers to sit here all morning. Anyway, if you are idle, you are idle, and you don't want to do anything anyway.
When Jin Han asked for water and coffee, Li Qian got up voluntarily, like a waiter, and went to make a cup of instant coffee for each of the three of them. Then continue to sit there in a daze.
After about an hour or so, after Jin Han got tired of resting his eyes, he finally felt that something was wrong. Da Liu and Yang Bangxu ran out to smoke on the rooftop. Dude, what are you doing? Lost your soul?"
"Huh?" Li Qian came back to his senses suddenly, "Oh, hi, boring!"
Jin Han curled his lips, opened his fire at the moment, and taunted mercilessly in front of his face, "Damn! So many things are waiting for you, are you still bored? I think you are flirting! Hey, do you know what you are doing now? I can smell that coquettishness from eight feet away!"
While talking, he waved his hand, "Go, go, find your woman, whoever you want, come and have a shot, and you will be refreshed!"
Li Qian glanced at him, "Get out!"
Jin Han smiled wretchedly, "Why don't you change someone else, try something new, and change your taste. Anyway, there are not just one or two in line."
Li Qian didn't bother to talk to him, put down his cup, took a deep breath, and stood up, "Okay, poking here, you're annoying, then I'll go poking somewhere else."
Jin Han laughed again, and shouted behind him, "I'm serious, your disease is called hypocrisy, just let it go!"
Li Qian walked out without looking back, holding his right middle finger high.
…………
Zhou Mo is practicing singing.
Her contract hasn't been signed yet, but she has already entered Minghu Culture's list of singers. Next, Li Qian will make an album for her. She has already given a few songs. Zhou Mo likes it very much, and she also puts her heart into practicing songs.
Li Qian opened the door and went in, and she pulled Li Qian to help her play the piano.
To be honest, singing at Zhou Mo's level and height, music has already been immersed in her soul, no matter what works, it must be Zhou Mo's taste when it comes to her. Therefore, even though her previous albums did not sell as well as Liao Liao, nor He Runqing and Rose Power, but if you want to make an album, it is actually the most trouble-free to make an album for her.
What's more, the songs are all given by Li Qian, and the arrangement can be easily made.
The two played the piano, practiced songs, and got bored for a few minutes from time to time. Then Han Shunzhang came to discuss things with him, and then went back to the office to talk. After a few minutes of talking, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was only half past ten.
In the past days, he was always busy with various things. Li Qian always felt that time passed quickly, but unfortunately, in the past two days, he would raise his wrist to look at his watch from time to time, but the time seemed to be frozen, flowing Very, very slow.
After being bored in his office for a while, Li Qian felt an urge to go back to the Film Academy for a few days of classes. After thinking about it, he got up and left the office. He wanted to go to Zhou Mo's lounge to stay for a while, but when he reached the door, he turned his head and looked at the next room, and finally pushed the door and entered that room.
He Runqing turned around in surprise, "Why are you here? Are you done with your work?"
Li Qian frowned, "Hey, I'm not busy with anything, just wandering around, how is your practice?"
He Runqing flipped through the songbook in her hand, and said with a smile: "It's okay, but... I still think that this is a little too wanton? Although I like jazz very much, but... in our country, Can it work? No one likes it at all, right? "
Li Qian smiled, "It's just a bit of a jazz style, and it's not for you to sing jazz. Besides, you are so popular now, you just want to play with a little personality, otherwise, after singing songs for a lifetime, you finally found out It’s a pity that I haven’t sung my favorite song all this time!”
Speaking of this, after thinking about it, he said to He Runqing: "So, don't think about it, and practice singing quickly!"
He Runqing smiled, stared at him for a while, and asked, "Hey, what happened to you these days? You seem very unhappy?"
Li Qian went over to sit down, and shrugged his shoulders, "Is there? Obviously?"
He Runqing pursed her lips and smiled, "Even a fool can tell that he is very lethargic." Then, she asked, "Because Young Master Yu is leaving?"
Li Qian went to sit beside her, sank into the soft sofa, completely paralyzed there, thought for a while, and said: "No, anyway, I can't tell you the specifics, I just feel like I don't have the energy to do anything."
He Runqing raised her legs, and her high-heeled shoes tapped the floor lightly, making a crisp sound. After a while, she smiled, "The TV series are selling so well, it has caught up with the money earned from albums. Hey, I was listening to Liu Mei just now. I mentioned it, it is said that the shipment volume of the same-voice disc is also very large, it is estimated that it will not be a big problem to be the first in the ranking next week, a TV series with the same voice disc, if you can beat Zhang Chang, you But it’s another record, so you’re not happy about it? Oh, by the way, isn’t Liao Liao coming back soon, so you can’t be happy?”
Li Qian was stunned when he heard the words, and then laughed, "Liao Liao is coming back, and if I say I'm unhappy, will it seem particularly heartless?"
He Runqing also laughed when he heard this.
It seemed that she wanted to chat with him and interrupt him, but she took the initiative to call, "I heard that the business of the special effects department downstairs has been booming recently. You won't let them keep some money? Don't continue." You want to make a movie yourself, but no one will do special effects for you.”
Li Qian smiled, "The filming of "Legend of the New White Snake", on the one hand, I want to practice my skills, on the other hand, a big purpose is to advertise for the special effects department. In fact, the demand for special effects in our country is not small, but In the past, the money was earned by foreign countries. As for me, I will make an album for you next time, and I will not shoot for the time being. The next few films that will be launched in the company do not require many special effects shots. The special effects department It came out with a little bit of effort, like Lao Jin, people said, no special effects for a single shot!"
Hearing what Li Qian said, He Runqing smiled and nodded, looking relieved.
Li Qian turned to look at her, suddenly smiled, "cut", and squinted at her, "Look at your little thoughtfulness, don't worry, I will definitely make your album for you myself!"
He Runqing was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, then burst out laughing, couldn't help raising his hand and nudging him, "You think I'm too bad, don't you think I won't make an album for me because I'm afraid you will go to film TV dramas?"
Li Qian continued to squint at her, "Isn't it?"
He Runqing laughed, then raised her head, smiled and glanced at Li Qian triumphantly, "Even so, so what?"
Li Qian made another "cut".
He Runqing smiled and pointed at Li Qian, "Hey, you look very decadent in this posture, do you know that? Can I take a photo for you?"
Li Qian looked up at her, and soon stood up like a carp.
"Forget it, I'd better not leave such an embarrassing image. If it is accidentally exposed more than ten years later, this is called... Shuntian Paralysis? Let's leave it to Uncle Ge!"
"Uncle Ge? Who is it?"
…………
Back on the ninth floor, Li Qian asked Da Liu for a cigarette, then ran to the roof alone, lay on the railing, smoked slowly, looked at the tall buildings in the distance, the pedestrians and vehicles on the road, and more The East 4th Ring Road, where traffic flows in the distance, once again became dazed.
The so-called boring is not really boring.
However, he was faintly tired, a little ambitious, but also a little unconfident.
It has been four and a half years since he came to this time and space, and he has adapted to this place. He and the people here have all kinds of love or hate, as well as grievances and entanglements.
He thought he was doing well, and in fact he was.
In just a few years, his status in the domestic music scene is almost like a godfather. It is just a TV series. As a director, he is no longer just a matter of gaining fame in the industry, but is recognized as a talent among the younger generation of directors. The extremely high one is considered to have limitless future achievements.
He has created a company that is already sizable and growing rapidly.
He picked up many people in one hand.
Now he even has four women with different peerless elegance by his side.
He is very contented, very contented, but a little tired, a little weary.
But at the same time, there are still more ambitions growing in his heart, but in the face of those higher ambitions, he always has such an uneasy uneasy feeling in his heart.
Making music, so to speak, has almost become his instinct in his previous life. Even though he used those songs, there is really nothing to boast about. The essence is just plagiarism. But no matter what, after all, he is the one who "created" the splendor that did not belong to this world, this time and space.
When I asked myself in the middle of the night, although I was ashamed, I was not panicked.
But what next?
Among the domestically produced films in his previous life, "To Live" and "Farewell My Concubine" must have been among the top works that he admired the most. "Farewell My Concubine" was given to Feng Yumin. Because he wants to see these classic things also appear in this time and space, but he feels uneasy in his heart, always feeling that his own ability is not enough to control these great works.
But now, by accident, these two works have returned to his own hands.
what to do?
Send them to some other director?
…………
At some point, Jin Han actually stood beside him, smoking a cigarette, and soon even lay down on the railing just like him.
Li Qian turned to look at him, and he also turned to look at Li Qian.
Then the two were speechless, each turned their heads to smoke, looking at the distant or near scenery.
After smoking a cigarette, Jin Han threw the cigarette butt, crushed it with his foot, patted Li Qian on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Go out for a stroll, what do you like, go play and let yourself relax."
Li Qian turned to look at him.
He nodded with certainty, "Although I don't know what you want to do, and I don't know how difficult it is that puts you under so much pressure, but believe in yourself and believe in yourself. !"
Li Qian pursed his lips.
After a while, he nodded.
"Thank you!" he said.
Jin Han stretched his waist, and patted Li Qian's shoulder again, "Let's go! Give yourself a vacation, as for me, continue to edit the film!"
Li Qian turned his head to look at his back, speechless for a long time.
He didn't know how long he stayed in a daze, but when he came back to his senses, it was Zhou Mo who called and asked him to go down to have dinner together.
After hanging up the phone, Li Qian thought for a while, then took out his cell phone, found the number and dialed it.
"Hey, sister, do you have a show this afternoon?"
"Oh, that's great, can you arrange a ticket for me?"
"Well, just this afternoon."
***
Ask for a few monthly tickets!
Thank you!
