Drama Training Camp

    "What's the matter with your Weibo, I'll call you ancestor, please, delete it!"

    Zhang Qi accidentally searched Ye Xijin's Weibo, and was shocked when he saw it.

    Looking at Ye Xijin's new account with millions of fans, Zhang Qi couldn't laugh at all, the thousands of Weibo, densely packed, all of the content couldn't stand a closer look, Zhang Qi The head hurts, as if a hammer was pounding on the inside of the head.

    Ye Xijin, who had been engrossed in writing the script, answered the phone. Hearing Zhang Qi's voice was full of tears, he smiled and reassured: "Don't worry about this, it's not a big problem, don't panic."

    "Ancestors, you have been scolded badly on Weibo, don't you panic?" Zhang Qi was about to explode, only to think that Ye Xi, a well-behaved child before, why has he changed now It's such a spray.

    "Brother Zhang, don't worry, I have my own intentions."

    Ye Xijin said this, Zhang Qi couldn't do anything about him, after all, Ye Xijin is the boss now.

    This week, in addition to burying herself in writing the script, Ye Xijin occasionally teased other fans on Weibo.

    Because Ye Xijin dares to say anything, dare to spray anything, he catches traffic on Weibo and chases after him, especially the stars of Huayi, except for a few who have nothing black, Everything else was dug out of his grave and sprayed over and over.

    He is very cool as a keyboard warrior. He opens comments from time to time and prohibits them from time to time. He keeps sneaking fans of other people. The traffic brought by these dozens of stars is also huge. Ye Xijin originally It's a new account, and now it has millions of followers.

    Most of these fans are die-hard fans of the traffic. These people are always on call and pay close attention to Ye Xijin. Only Ye Xijin posted on Weibo and they immediately responded.

    These people have to follow if they want to repost. Once they unfollow, Ye Xijin starts to repost, and they have to pay more attention and keep reposting, so Ye Xijin repeatedly slips away many times, and they learn Just don't unfollow it.

    Black to the depths of natural fans, these people are spraying and spraying with Ye Xijin, if one day Ye Xijin doesn't spray their idols, they will have nowhere to go So, I feel uncomfortable all over.

    In addition to these people, there are also some black fans of the traffic, who dared to say that Ye Xijin was not afraid of being scolded, so they followed Ye Xijin.

      on the powder.

    Ye Xijin's powder sucking technique, others can't learn it at all, the screen is full of scolding, greeting the whole family at every turn, being cursed to go out and being hit by a car N times every day, very people can bear it .

    Ye Xijin is obviously not an ordinary person. He bears it very well. Not only that, but he can also keep calm and retort with reason and no swear words. The screen is full of scolding, and the screen is full of It's all his record of fighting with the sprayer.

    After the script was written, Zhang Qi brought the director to the door immediately.

    Ye Xijin made them a cup of tea, then turned on the computer and started tweeting.

    His Weibo now has tens of thousands of replies and tens of thousands of retweets at every turn, sometimes more than the tens of millions of fans he sprayed with traffic comments and retweets, and even private messages from advertisers asking him to do it Promotion, the price given is not low, Ye Xijin can't laugh or cry.

    Ye Xijin didn't want to accept advertising promotion, after all, he didn't have time to investigate the quality of the product.

    Ye Xi opened a private message today, and it was already red 999+. He clicked on one of them, but instead of scolding him, he asked, "Brother, who are we spraying today?"

    It was rare to meet one of his true fans, Ye Xijin replied casually: "Smoke the comments."

    Ye Xijin can play, his brain is fast and his hands are fast, one person can comment on the comments all morning, a dozen pages in a row, and when he is hungry, he remembers that there is still nothing in the room. There are two people.

    The room was very quiet except for the occasional sound of page turning. The agent Zhang Qi and the director Zheng Chengquan were all reading the script with concentration, Ye Xijin shook his head helplessly, opened the app and clicked Three takeaways.

    When the takeout was delivered, Zheng Chengcai put down the script, looked at Ye Xijin with some doubt on his face, and asked, "The screenwriter's name is 'Mysterious Man', I have never heard of this name, Isn't he an old screenwriter?"

    Ye Xijin was afraid of Zheng Chengxin's failure, and explained: "Don't worry, although this is my friend's first script, he is very capable, and the script he wrote is definitely not worse than the old screenwriter."

    Ye Xijin praised herself without blushing.

    Zheng Cheng doesn't doubt this, "I don't doubt the script, I just feel that the number of episodes is too small, and I want to discuss it with him face to face."

    "Unfortunately, my friend is shy, has a severe social phobia, and is reluctant to meet people." Ye Xijin said nonsense.

    "The script is really fine. Although it is the first script, it can be seen that the screenwriter's skills are very strong, the rhythm is tight, and it is better than many old screenwriters. Can we really meet?" Zheng Cheng felt a little pity in his heart, and he still thought about making an appointment with this screenwriter in the future.

    Ye Xijin did not dare to reveal himself, and said, "He doesn't see anyone. If you think there is any problem, I will help you convey it."

    "Twenty episodes, isn't it a little short? Can you expand a few more episodes?" Zheng Cheng asked.

    Ye Xijin shook his head and said, "Counting back twenty years, thirty or forty episodes were full-length TV dramas at that time, and now the TV series are often ten episodes, where is the need for a story? Talking for so long, the water injection is too serious, if there is a short story, a TV series with a tight rhythm and a clear story logic, do you think it will be very prominent?"

    Seeing Zheng Cheng was still a little hesitant, Ye Xijin continued to explain: "I know that TV dramas are filled with water because the more episodes there are, the higher the price can be sold, but if things go on like this, they will be fishing for water. If I want to shoot, I will shoot high-quality products, not such perfunctory works.”

      Explosion, director, I believe in your ability, in today's serious homogenization of the film and television industry, it is very difficult to turn over by water-filled dramas, we might as well give it a shot!"

    Zheng Cheng heard this and felt a lot of emotion. Everyone who entered the industry wanted to shoot high-quality products, but most of them followed the world and chose to compromise for various reasons.

    "Furthermore, in traditional Chinese culture, food is also a very important category. If the production of this drama is fast, it can be completed in three or four months, and in five months, the "Chinese Traditional Culture Festival" 'Held in the capital, with this shareholder wind, maybe we can successfully go to the stars."

    Zheng Cheng didn't expect Ye Xijin to think so much. At this moment, he was persuaded. He is now in a very bad situation. He might as well make up his mind to give it a shot, as Ye Xijin said.

    Speaking of, Zheng Cheng also has a lot of origins with the original host. The only drama the original host made was the big IP drama "Liu Yun Zhuan" directed by Zheng Cheng.

    To be honest, Ye Xijin thinks that "Liu Yunzhuan" has nothing to do with director Zheng Cheng.

      In the end, it led to a magical change in the script. Except for the name, there was almost no content like the original. Zheng Cheng had little say in the crew, but he was forced to clean up the mess in the end.

    Such an IP drama, which was originally expected to explode, slammed into the heart of the earth with a suit of infamy.

    The person who needs to take the blame for the street, Zheng Cheng, who is not a direct descendant of Huayi, was naturally pushed out.

    Speaking of which, Ye Xijin gathered a bunch of Huayi's avengers, intentionally or not.

    The script of "The God of Cookery" has a total of 20 episodes. In one episode, Ye Xijin wrote 15,000 words, totaling 300,000 words. Zhang Qi's reading speed was relatively slow, so he finished it only at this time. , he raised his head, looked at Ye Xijin with bright eyes, and asked, "Your script is going to fight with "Sweet Kitchen"?"

    "Sweet Kitchen", supervised and produced by Huayi Film and Television Investment, Xiaohuadan Ruan Ruan and Huayi Xiaosheng Lu Yifan co-starring, the play is adapted from the same name, about the heroine who was forced to inherit the family restaurant, Originally ignorant of cooking skills, with the help of the male protagonist who is respected by the industry as the "God of Cookery", he refined his cooking skills and grew into a famous state banquet chef step by step, and used his perseverance and kindness to win the story of love.

      embellishment.

    If it is adapted well, "Sweet Kitchen" may not be a masterpiece.

    But when Ye Xijin saw the team of Huayi, he knew that two popular people with no acting skills could not focus on "cooking", the focus must be to let handsome men and beauties fall in love.

    As a result, this show is destined to fail to please fans of the original.

    Compared with the growth story of the female protagonist of "Sweet Kitchen", Ye Xijin's "God of Cookery" is a story directed by a male protagonist. The male protagonist came from a family of royal chefs. He resolutely took up the important task of revitalizing his family business, the music career he originally loved. He traveled all over the country, learned the strengths of various schools, discovered the local specialties, and finally became a contemporary **** of cookery.

    The two stories are similar at first glance, but the actual plot is completely different.

     "Brother Zhang, what do you think "God of Cookery" lacks?" Ye Xijin asked.

    Zhang Qi thought about it for a while, if he really followed Ye Xijin's request to supervise the production, there would be all kinds of cool points, then the most missing thing should be: "Hotness!"

    "Yes, so I'm not fighting in the ring, but borrowing the east wind. We don't have the heat, but they do, so why bother?" Ye Xijin said with a smile.

      That's what you started with? So your tweets are actually hype?"

    In fact, Zhang Qi looked at Ye Xijin from a high point. He was Lu Yifan who sprayed it first, and then saw "Sweet Kitchen", he thought of writing a script to gain popularity, and followed Zhang Qi here The order is reversed.

    This is also thanks to the fact that Ye Xijin was a rich man in his previous life. He traveled around the mountains and rivers for half his life. Poor, to write this food script. If Huayi's new drama is something like "The Surgeon", Ye Xijin will probably be caught blind.

    "You actually think so far! I'm really starting to think that we can succeed." Zheng Cheng made up his mind. In addition to the quality of a drama itself, publicity is also very important, Ye Xijin is unique The way of publicity has made the show take the first step towards success.

    Ye Xijin was not easy to explain, so she had to reluctantly accept this compliment.

    Two dramas with the same theme, one with a big IP and huge traffic attracts attention, and the other with a script made by the grass-roots team, which is more important at a glance, Ye Xijin wants to quickly promote "God of Cookery", just I can only take a slanted sword and take advantage of this shareholder wind.

    Although it is very unkind, when she thinks that "Sweet Kitchen" is produced by Huayi, Ye Xijin doesn't have the slightest psychological burden.

    After the script was in place, the team quickly built up, Zhang Qi himself served as the producer, Ye Xijin himself served as the male lead, and invited two instructors to guide the lines and performances respectively. I study behind two teachers every day.

    Strictly speaking, there is no heroine in this play, only two female characters with more plays.

    One of them is the male protagonist's younger sister. Zheng Cheng picked a girl from the drama academy. Her acting skills are mediocre, but she is better than her youth. That's it.

      This is also one of the highest paid in the entire crew.

    As for the photographer who had been worried before, Zhang Qi's mentor directly recommended a person.

    When she first learned about the photographer's rich work history, Ye Xijin refused.

    The photographer He Xing has graduated for many years, but his luck has always been bad. He shoots films of certain special colors. Naturally, Ye Xijin does not like this kind of experience.

    But Zheng Cheng has been in the business for several years, and he obviously has heard of this person. Like Zhang Qi, he very much recognizes He Xing's ability.

    Two votes to one vote, Ye Xijin has no better choice, photographer He Xingjin group.

    The crew was ready, and after the opening ceremony was held, the crew started running.

    Hua Zhi heard the words, took the mobile phone in Zhu Bian's hand, and the screen was parked on Ye Xijin's Weibo homepage.

    "Ben Xiannan announced the official launch of the TV series "God of Cookery", so stay tuned! [Picture][Picture][Picture]."

    Hua Zhi sneered, "Jumping Clown."

    "Yes, you're right, Ye Xijin is a clown, jumping up and down on Weibo, just relying on spraying people to attract popularity, don't look at his millions of fans, all these are against him People." Zhu Bian followed Hua Zhi, hunched slightly, and looked like a little **** beside a noble concubine.

    "Hmph, Ye Xijin doesn't need to worry, he is the grasshopper of the autumn queen, and even if the drama comes out, he won't even think about the trial." After Hua Zhi finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Bian with a respectful expression He looked very satisfied, and said again: "Didn't your subordinates have a new person? Send it to the Blue Square tonight, and I will assign him a role in "Sweet Kitchen" later."

    Zhu Bian understood in seconds, smiled even more, and said, "Don't worry, this matter is guaranteed to be properly arranged for you."

    "Just know, don't go wrong." Hua Zhi went directly into the elevator.

    Ye Xijin didn't know anything about Huayi's activities, and now he is in a little trouble.

      Wherever the lens is, it accidentally goes out of range.

    Ye Xijin knew that acting was not something that could be done overnight, so he took the initiative to ask for a rest and adjustment, but Zheng Cheng couldn't, so he had to shoot Su Yajun's solo first.

    The first scene of the crew is actually a contest between Qin Youyan played by Ye Xijin and the female supporting role played by Su Yajun, who are also the heirs of the royal chef, but Ye Xijin was late. Can not find the exact location, very delaying the progress.

    "With such poor acting skills, you can still be the lead actor. Bring money into the group!" Ye Xijin heard someone whispering.

     "Don't tell me, this kid with thin skin and tender meat is the one that the big bosses like." Another voice let out a wretched smile.

    Ye Xijin is not a good-natured person, so he stood up directly, walked behind him, went straight to the two small group performers, and said, "You two, pack up and leave immediately. "

    "What do you mean, even if you are the leading actor, you can't just chase people away!" One of the group performers shouted.

    Ye Xijin raised her eyebrows, "Let's go as soon as I tell you, don't wait for the security to chase people away!"

    At this moment, Zhang Qi came over.

    The two small group actors immediately found the backbone, "Producer Zhang, Ye Xijin is going to drive us away because he is the leading actor!"

    Zhang Qi smiled, "Since starring Ye asked you to go, you can go."

    After speaking, with the dumbfounded expressions of the two small group performers, Zhang Qi greeted the two security guards and invited them out.

    "Have a drink." Zhang Qi patted Ye Xijin on the shoulder and handed him a bottle of mineral water.

    Ye Xijin reached out and took it, found a seat and sat down, watching Su Yajun's movement on the field, trying to find the pattern.

    "You've stepped back from before." Zhang Qi said suddenly.

    Ye Xijin replied without turning her head, still staring at Su Yajun.

    "You have improved too." Zhang Qi said again.

    Ye Xijin took a rare moment to turn around and gave Zhang a look: Are you sick?

    Zhang Qi laughed, "Remember when you were training as an intern? Your acting skills are obviously the bottom of so many people, but the strange thing is that as long as you take pictures, you stand on the camera In front of you, you will naturally become the center, and you can't let others ignore it."

    "That's because I look good." Ye Xijin replied without thinking.

    "No," Zhang shook his head and continued, "That's because you have a strong sense of the camera, as if you were born to know where to stand."

    Ye Xijin said angrily, "Can a camera be the same as a video camera? The camera will move."

    "You still know that you have to move, look at Su Yajun, she is walking with the camera, the camera is moving, the camera is moving, she is also moving, and the reason why you go out, It's because of ignoring that."

    Ye Xijin was thoughtful.

    Zhang Qi continued: "I just watched your performance, if there is no camera, you stand there with confidence, and the real person is Qin Youyan, the audience will be full of confidence in you after watching it, just You will feel that you will definitely be able to defeat Liu Ye in the culinary competition."

    "This is something you didn't have before, so I said that you have improved. Although Qin Youyan has been studying cooking for a while, he is very talented and confident that he is omnipotent. Your performance, Grasp the essence of the character."

    Ye Xijin secretly said in his heart that the character is his own son. If you understand it, I am afraid no one can surpass him as a screenwriter.

    Zhang Qi finished boasting, but the conversation changed, "But a good actor, in the process of his performance, he is not only an actor, he is also a director, a cameraman, and even act with him opponent."

    Ye Xijin was puzzled, "Director? Cameraman? Opponent?"

    Zhang nodded, "You can't only think about your own play, but also your teammates, you are not fighting alone, you have to think about what kind of effect the director needs, and how the camera will look like. When shooting, how should you move to show the most perfect side, and how can you cooperate to make this scene more harmonious.”

    "Like the scene just now, you played a confident Qin Youyan, but it was only Qin Youyan, you couldn't find the seat, and Su Yajun played Liu Ye. , it’s just a play, but it lacks that kind of sympathy atmosphere, taking a famous painting as an analogy, even if you stand in the right position in that scene, what you shoot is just an imitation, not the real one.”

    Opening his words, Ye Xijin suddenly felt a sense of empowerment, something that he could not understand at first, a hand appeared, pushed aside the clouds for him, and saw the bright moon.

    Ye Xijin went to watch the scene again, as if there was a camera in his mind, constantly testifying to Su Yajun's position.

    Ye Xijin thought about it thoroughly, stood up and walked to the director's side, "I've adjusted it, I want to try again."

    Zheng Cheng was happy to see Ye Xijin try actively.

    The camera is pointed and the director shouts.

    Everyone saw that Ye Xijin seemed to have changed. He stood there like a living Qin Youyan. He tilted his head slightly and gave Su Yajun a small smile. His eyes seemed to be filled with tiny bits of light, and they seemed to be full of admiration and fighting intent.

    Su Yajun's heart skipped a beat. She debuted as a child actress, but she has been quiet for many years and became a fourth-tier actress, but her acting skills are still good. She immediately noticed the change in Ye Xijin, and she adjusted accordingly. .

    Director Zheng Cheng watched the two of them come and go. He obviously didn’t have much language and action, but he just created an aura of chess and opponents, and this atmosphere was very subtle. There was a hint of ambiguity, and it was as harmonious and harmonious as it should have been.

    "Okay, Ka!" Director Zheng Cheng shouted happily.

    Ye Xijin finished filming, stood there thinking for a moment, then walked to Zheng Cheng's side and offered to shoot again.

    In the last scene, Ye Xijin felt a little flawed, although he thought it was enough, but seeing Ye Xijin keep improving, he was too happy to be happy, and naturally he would not dampen the enthusiasm of the other party.

    Just so, Su Yajun also felt that this scene seemed to be suppressed, and she was very active in favor of the reshoot.

    The two leading actors are so positive, director Zheng Cheng is the happiest.

    Zhang Qi stood aside and looked at Ye Xijin with a gratified smile on his face. The last person who understood so quickly is now the best actor in Cannes, and Ye Xijin obviously has unlimited potential.

    After Ye Xi's enlightenment, the progress of the entire crew has improved by leaps and bounds. Many shootings are done in one shot. After the scenes in the capital are finished, they will soon run around the country.

    Ye Xijin did not want to make shoddy productions, and took real shots from all over the country. Even if it was just a fleeting scene in the TV series, Ye Xijin took the team to shoot in person.

    Three months have passed, and all the filming of the crew has been completed. Because of the on-site recording, only a small number of flaws need to be re-recorded in the recording studio. Zhang Qi has already been cut out. The first trailer was released, but under Ye Xijin's reminder, he did not move.

    Two days later, "Sweet Kitchen" released the first trailer for the entire network.

    Ten minutes after the release of this trailer, Ye Xijin's Weibo: "The first trailer for the new play "God of Cookery", please follow me on a journey of Chinese cuisine. [Video] ]”
