Bright Entertainment Company, President's Office. Tan Yue dealt with the work at hand. "The Long Season" is about to start filming. Although the shooting cycle does not take too long, it is still necessary to plan the respective tasks for each department.
This filming must have taken place in China. Just filming required most of Tan Yue's energy, and it was difficult to find time to manage the company's affairs.
All departments are in a stable stage of development and cannot make any mistakes. After finishing the planning of the new media department, Tan Yue took a short break and started working again.
Most of the program department's energy has recently been spent on variety shows in cooperation with Penguin Video, which is now also the company's focus.
Therefore, in the following period, the program department will focus on this variety show. Tan Yue thought for a moment, then typed on the keyboard and started writing a plan.
Not long after I heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
"Mr. Tan." Tan Yue temporarily put down his work, looked up at the door, and saw that the person coming in was Qian Tao, holding a thick stack of bound paper in his hand.
Qian Tao came to the opposite side and said: "This is the revised split-shot script. Some places have been revised according to your requirements. Can you take a look and see if there is anything that needs to be revised?" Tan Yue took the script and seriously Look through it.
The script is "The Long Season". The storyboard script has been revised many times, but there are always some glitches and it does not meet the requirements.
Shot splitting is very important. It is an important basis for reference when shooting. It also divides the content to be shown in the entire film to form the basic shooting unit - shot, and labels each shot with the shot number and scene. .....If the storyboard script is not done well, it will greatly affect the shooting progress.
After many revisions, there was still something wrong. Qian Tao couldn't help but feel a little nervous. His eyes drifted to Tan Yue from time to time, trying to guess through his expression whether he could pass this time?
This time, Tan Yue did not check word for word like before. He skipped over the parts that had no problems and looked at the places where problems had occurred before.
"There are finally no mistakes in this place." Hearing this, Qian Tao felt slightly relieved. The mistakes Tan Yue mentioned have been revised several times, but have not been properly resolved.
He led several screenwriters to follow Tan Yue's requirements and with the help of relevant information, finally achieved results.
For the next more than forty minutes, Tan Yue remained silent and focused all his attention on the storyboard script.
One can imagine Qian Tao's mental state. Every second seems like a year. If he is still not satisfied this time, he will doubt his ability.
Tan Yue put down the split-shot script and said, "There is no problem this time." He was still satisfied with the modifications made by the TV drama department.
There were so many revisions in the middle. It’s not his fault. The details of every scene in a suspense drama are very important. If anything is not done well, it may affect the plot.
In particular, there are three timelines in "The Long Season", and each era presents a different feeling.
Qian Tao was finally able to let go of his worries. For the past few nights, he had been dreaming about revising the script, and he was under great pressure.
Tan Yue put the scene scripts together and arranged: "The list of audition actors has been determined. Let's find a time to start auditioning." Several main actors have been selected, and other casting matters are left to Qian Tao.
"In addition, this time the audition process was filmed, so I won't go to the scene. After it's over, the video will be sent to me directly." Qian Tao nodded and understood what Tan Yue meant.
He presided over the audition process, and the final result was decided by Tan Yuelai. Although he didn't have much decision-making power, Qian Tao was quite happy in his heart.
A single scene script has been revised many times. If I were to choose other characters in "The Long Season", I would definitely lose sleep.
The list of audition actors is selected by oneself, and the audition still depends on the actors' own on-the-spot performance.
"Then if the results come out..." Tan Yue said: "Let the actors who auditioned go back and wait for notification. When the results are available, I will notify you to send them a message."
"I got it." Qian Tao didn't stop after getting the new assignment. He was going back to prepare for the audition.
The crew's preparatory work has already begun, and it won't take too long to complete. When the time comes, the start-up time cannot be delayed because the actors are not familiar with the script.
"The Long Season" is a relatively short TV series, and Tan Yue didn't want to spend too much time on it.
The focus of the company's development is movies. Tan Yue was the only one left in the office again. He put aside the storyboards for the time being and continued writing the plans for the program department.
It won't take too long, and the plan is relatively simple. Below are the TV series department and film department.
The TV drama department has two dramas currently being filmed, and currently plans to continue buying new scripts. As for the results, Tan Yue still needs to approve them.
There is no rush in the TV drama department, it is just an idea now. If I really come across a good script, I will take some time to read it even during the filming.
The film department has a new film in the preparation stage. Of course, it is intended for domestic audiences and will not be released simultaneously abroad.
Bright Entertainment Company is still in the accumulation stage in the international entertainment industry, and its reputation cannot be affected. As for when to make a movie and what type of movie to make, Tan Yue has no idea yet. He will wait until the TV series is completed and everything is finished before he considers it.
After Tan Yue finished writing plans for various departments, he took a sip of tea and rested for a while, then picked up the storyboard script of "The Long Season" and read it carefully.
He also wanted to speed up the filming process. ............the other side. Chen Ziyu stood by the window, talking on the phone with her cell phone to her ear.
"Are you coming to the capital?" Chen Ziyu's tone was full of surprise: "What are you doing in the capital?" The person on the other end of the phone was none other than Chen Ziyu's mother.
Chen Ziyu suddenly received a call from her mother, wanting to come to the capital.
"I miss my daughter. Why don't I welcome you as a mother? How many days do you stay at home all year round? If you don't come back to see me, I can only go and see you."
"Isn't the company quite busy? I really can't get away."
"I know you are busy with work, so I decided to go to the capital to see you." Chen Ziyu said, "You came to the capital to see me. Do you have other things?" The mother did not hide anything: "Last time, because of something, , I didn’t see Tan Yue. You are about to get married. We haven’t met yet. The most important thing about this trip is to check out this future son-in-law." There is no better mother than a daughter. Chen Ziyu knew the purpose of her mother coming to the capital. Not just to see myself.
The mother on the other end of the phone continued: "You run an entertainment company and are busy with endless things every day. If I don't go to you, I don't know how long I have to wait for you to come and see me. There is an old saying that it is better to just sit back and wait for death. , it’s better to take the initiative.”
"Okay, okay, I understand." Chen Ziyu suddenly felt that his head was a little big, not because of his mother's nagging, but because he was suddenly a little nervous.
"Let me know when you're coming, and I'll send a car to pick you up then."
"When will I meet this son-in-law?"
"You come to the capital first and then we talk. I have work to do, so I'll hang up the phone first." Chen Ziyu hung up the phone without giving her mother a chance to speak.
She didn't agree or refuse on the phone. She couldn't decide on this kind of thing, so she still had to ask Tan Yue for his opinion.
"Sigh..." Chen Ziyu really didn't expect that her mother would come to the capital. She patted her forehead and left the office, knocking on the door of Tan Yue's office.
"What's the matter, Ziyu? You look gloomy. Are you feeling unwell?" Chen Ziyu shook his head and said, "No, I just received a call from my mother, saying she was coming to the capital."
"That's a good thing!"
"Said I want to see you..."
"Hiss..." Tan Yue took a breath. Although he had experienced many big scenes, he felt a little nervous when he heard that he was going to meet his future mother-in-law.
"If you feel that this time is not suitable, we can meet again later." Tan Yue quickly waved his hand and explained: "That's not what I meant. Auntie is coming to the capital, so we must meet. We also talked about it. It has been several years since we started talking about marriage, but I haven’t met your family yet. It’s really a bit wrong. I was negligent.” Chen Ziyu said nonchalantly: “I’m too busy with work, and it’s just the Chinese New Year at the end of the year. You can have a good rest when you are away. They will definitely understand you, don't worry." Her parents are in business, so they are often away from home.
The more Tan Yue thought about it, the more he felt that what he had done was not appropriate, and he actually asked his future mother-in-law to come to him.
"If you want to meet, you must meet this time." Chen Ziyu
"Yeah", Tan Yue had no objection, and she naturally agreed. In fact, she had long wanted Tan Yue to meet his parents, so that the engagement and marriage could be arranged.
"Auntie is here. I have to tidy up. Do you think I still need a haircut? Should I wear formal clothes or something more casual when we meet?"
"You can wear whatever you want." Chen Ziyu laughed, remembering that the first time she went to Tan Yue's house, she was so nervous that she didn't know what to wear.
"No, you must clean up well when you meet for the first time and leave a good impression in front of auntie." Chen Ziyu's face was filled with a smile, filled with happiness.
It's a pity that we didn't see it last time. There shouldn't be any surprises this time. Tan Yue suddenly asked: "When will auntie come over? Let's pick her up together then."
"I'm not sure, I'll send a message to ask her." Now that Tan Yue has agreed, Chen Ziyu is confident and sends a message to her mother asking: "It has been arranged for A Yue to meet you. When will it be?" Coming to the capital?" My mother quickly replied: The date has not been determined yet, it depends on the schedule.
Chen Ziyu replied with an 'ok'. Before I put down my phone, my mother sent another message: It won't be long. The time will pass quickly after I finish my work. I will send you a message then.
"I know." My parents have been busy in the catering industry. Just like me, they are busy all day long and have no free time.
Tan Yue asked, "When will Auntie come over?" Chen Ziyu put the phone aside and said, "The date hasn't been set yet, and it probably won't be long." Although she was a little nervous at the thought of meeting her future mother-in-law for the first time, she Tan Yue still has great expectations for this matter.
Due to various reasons, the engagement of the two people had been postponed before. If they met their parents, everything would be different.
Chen Ziyu touched Tan Yue's clothes and said, "I'll take you to buy some clothes during your break."
"Then thank you, Boss Chen." Chen Ziyu raised her lips and smiled. In fact, she paid more attention to this meeting than anyone else.
She had already decided in her heart that Tan Yue had been dating for so long because he was rushing to get married. I had wanted to let Tan Yue meet his parents a long time ago.
But either his parents don't have time, or Tan Yue doesn't have time. This time, my mother finally found some free time to visit the capital. She had to dress formally for the first meeting.
With Chen Ziyu choosing clothes for him, Tan Yue no longer worried.
"You continue to be busy with your work, I'll go back first." Chen Ziyu still has a bunch of documents in his hand that need to be processed. His mother has not yet determined the date of coming to Beijing, so there is no need to be too anxious about this matter.
After Chen Ziyu left, Tan Yue picked up the split-shot script of "The Long Season" and continued reading it. ...... Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
Qian Tao knocked on the door of Tan Yue's office holding a tablet. hear
After the voice of "come in", Qian Tao gently opened the door and entered.
"Mr. Tan, here is a video of the audition actors. Take a look."
"Okay." Tan Yue took the tablet and checked it carefully. Qian Tao sat across from him and waited with peace of mind. Overall, he was quite satisfied with the performance of this batch of audition actors. After all, they were all veteran actors with experience and strength.
There were not many roles, so the audition could have ended in one day, but because several actors really couldn't miss the schedule, it had to be postponed for one day.
The audition is at short notice, so I can still understand if something happens. Tan Yue watched the actors' performances on the tablet, and occasionally picked up a pen to record something.
Trials are basically 5-10 minutes long. Some videos are watched over and over again, while others are watched over and over again.
Tan Yue considers not only the actor's personal performance skills, but also the compatibility between the actor and the role.
Time passed by minute by minute, and nearly two hours had passed since I watched the last video.
Tan Yue rubbed his dry eyes and said: "The two actors are not suitable. It is not a problem of acting skills. The actors and the characters are not suitable for each other. It is easy for the audience to get upset and find two new actors."
"Okay." Qian Tao nodded and wrote down the name.
"The other actors are basically fine. Let's send them a notice. We will notify them after the start time is confirmed."
"Understood." Qian Tao left Tan Yue's office with his tablet and took the time to select actors.
