Chapter 38
: Thirty-Eight [Final Preparations]
After negotiating the matter of Li Saifeng, Kang Jianfei immediately rushed home to make up for his sleep. Before he could fall asleep, Uncle Biao came with two people. One of them was a fat middle-aged man, and the other was an old gentleman with gray hair.
“A Fei, this is Zhong Yuan, who used to be a recording engineer at Jiashi,” Wu Chenggang pointed at the big fat man and introduced the old gentleman, “This is Qibo, he is a good man in logistics, you can take care of the field. If the service team handed it over to him, you can go to film with confidence.”
Kang Jianfei was overjoyed when he heard it, and the recording engineer was no more than the one in charge of the field affairs team. Because this position not only needs to be meticulous and stable, but also has to be experienced.
“Welcome to join the cast of “Happy Ghost”. Kang Jianfei shook hands with them warmly.
The big fat Zhong Yuan was fatter than Wang Jing, he glanced at Kang Jianfei suspiciously, and asked Wu Chenggang face to face: “Acheng, this is your cousin? He’s not yet 20 years old, and he actually learned from others. Filming!”
Although Qibo didn’t say anything, he obviously didn’t trust Kang Jianfei with his eyes.
Zhong Yuan’s remarks made Wu Chenggang lose face. Fortunately, he was a good-natured man. Not only did he not take Zhong Yuan’s words to heart, but he comforted him with words: “Qi Bo, A Yuan, this time, you should do me a favor. I got it.”
Only then did Zhong Yuan smile: “Okay, okay, Ah Cheng, for your sake, am I too embarrassed to not agree? Just leave the recording team to me, but you have to give me some assistants. ”
Kang Jianfei laughed secretly after hearing this, this fat man has a lot of hearts, but his methods are a little more tender. It’s not that I don’t want to give you money when I invite you to be the recording engineer and the director of the field. It’s so **** cheap to be good at it!
At this time, it was time for people to be employed. Kang Jianfei didn’t want to conflict with them.
After talking for about half an hour, the phone rang suddenly, but it was Tang Zhenye who called. This guy refused Kang Jianfei’s invitation, and instead said to help Kang Jianfei invite Zhang Guorong to act, and now he finally called.
As soon as the call was connected, Tang Zhenye said apologetically: “A Fei, I have already contacted Zhang Guorong, he is very interested in your film, but he is just about to shoot Li Shi’s annual drama “Six Tribulations”, and he is temporarily unavailable. to make other movies.
“Oh, I see. I still have something to do now. Let’s talk about it another day.” Kang Jianfei didn’t have much hope for this, and naturally he wouldn’t be disappointed, so he hung up the phone with a few perfunctory words.
Seeing that it was already six o’clock in the evening, Kang Jianfei offered to invite a few people to dinner and drink a glass of wine, which was considered to have brought the relationship closer.
When he returned home after dinner, he found that Hu Juncai had come back. Kang Jianfei said, “Acai, you don’t have to go to the studio tomorrow, come and help me.”
“Okay,” Hu Juncai agreed and asked, “What am I going to do?”
Kang Jianfei took out a form and said, “I have a list here, you can go to them to coordinate the time. I have written the specific details on it, you just follow it.”
“Okay, but if you do something wrong, don’t blame me.” Hu Juncai looked at the form and said.
Kang Jianfei said with a smile, “If it’s wrong, it’s wrong, as long as there is no problem with the general direction. By the way, how about you play the leading actor Zhu Xiucai?”
“I play the male lead?” Hu Juncai was extremely surprised, and felt that Kang Jianfei’s movie was like a child’s play, and he actually asked him to play the male lead. He knows his own abilities, and it is already very difficult to play a small supporting role. How can he play the leading role?
“That’s it!” Kang Jianfei patted Hu Juncai on the shoulder and said. His original idea was to play Zhu Xiucai, the happy ghost, and let Tang Zhenye play the second male lead, the heroine Lin Xiaohua’s sweetheart boyfriend.
But now that Tang Zhenye is not here, he is too lazy to look for other people, so he simply plays the second male lead and lets Hu Juncai play the happy ghost.
In fact, this “Happy Ghost” doesn’t need any acting skills, it’s just a comedy with little nutritional content, but its content is relatively novel, plus two young and beautiful girls as selling points, it is enough to attract attention.
As for the eighth sister, the female worker in the dormitory, Kang Jianfei plans to make Zheng Shaoqiu’s girlfriend Shen Dianxia a cameo. Anyway, she doesn’t have many scenes, and it’s not a lot to get a salary of 10,000 yuan for running a few scenes.
Why did Kang Jianfei pay 10,000 yuan for a supporting role when his budget was stretched?
It’s not that Kang Jianfei has suddenly become generous, but that Shen Dianxia is very famous in Hong Kong and Nanyang. Even if it’s not a comedy, the audience will laugh when they see her. The addition of a supporting role that increases the laugh like this will make the publicity effect much better. With Shen Dianxia’s three words, many audiences can be attracted to the cinema, and when “Happy Ghost” is sold in Nanyang, Shen Dianxia’s reputation can be improved. The production of the film is divided.
Kang Jianfei told Zheng Shaoqiu about this half a month ago. I heard that it was just a cameo role. Shen Dianxia readily agreed, and it wouldn’t take her much time anyway.
……
……
It was rare for him to sleep peacefully that night. Kang Jianfei got up early in the morning and urged Wang Tianlin to get the equipment together. At the beginning, it was good to say that as long as Kang Jianfei can make “Shanghai Beach” start smoothly, he will give him a 50% discount on the rental of photographic equipment.
Wang Tianlin just came out of the bedroom and was about to brush his teeth when Kang Jianfei suddenly stood up from the sofa in the living room and greeted, “Uncle Tianlin, good morning!”
“Scared me!” Wang Tianlin’s face trembled as he covered his chest and asked, “Why are you here so early?”
Kang Jianfei laughed and said, “I’m afraid you’ll forget about it.”
Wang Tianlin shook his head helplessly, and procrastinated for an hour to get out of the house.
Uncle Biao, Zhong Yuan and Qi Bo were already waiting downstairs. Originally, Zhong Yuan was very dissatisfied with Kang Jianfei’s late arrival, but seeing that Kang Jianfei appeared with Wang Tianlin, Zhong Yuan immediately closed his mouth and swallowed Kang Jianfei’s words, who was about to scold him.
Zhong Yuan and Qibo didn’t get along well after the closure of Jiashi, otherwise they wouldn’t have been pulled by Wu Chenggang to help. Wang Tianlin is a big figure in the TV circle. If they want to enter the wireless station in the future, they naturally cannot offend Wang Tianlin.
Kang Jianfei introduced: “Uncle Tianlin, this is Mr. Zhong Yuanzhong, this is Qibo, and they are all members of my crew.”
Qi Bo said quickly, “My surname is Qi, everyone can call him Qi Bo if you call him Shunkou, and the supervisor Wang can call him A Qi.”
Wang Tianlin had no interest in these two little people, so he shook hands and greeted a few words, then drove them to Shaw Brothers to choose equipment.
Wang Tianlin’s face was really great, so he brought Kang Jianfei to the equipment room. He only said hello to the manager, and Kang Jianfei and the others could choose whatever was inside.
Kang Jianfei quickly picked up two cameras, and turned around to see the fat man Zhong Yuan holding a tape recorder and drooling: “Good stuff, Shaw Brothers really has deep pockets.”
Although Shaw Brothers has a very low budget for film production, it also has some big productions.
Two years ago, I don’t know if Shao Daheng was too hot-headed, but he decided to make a Hong Kong version of “King Kong”. There are only four sets of this kind of photography system in the United States, and only three sets in Asia, which were purchased by Prince of Thailand, Toho of Japan and Shaw Brothers of Hong Kong.
It’s a pity that the Hong Kong version of “King Kong” was filmed to the point where it was horrible to watch, but this camera system was left behind and was regarded as a treasure by Shaw Brothers…
Kang Jianfei looked at the old-fashioned front-of-the-screen photography system. Although it has not yet reached the point of drooling, it is quite enviable. After all, it belongs to the top photographic equipment of this era.
He chose another rail car, and found some scenery boards, props and costumes, etc. Wu Chenggang, Zhong Yuan and their lighting and recording equipment have also been selected. Kang Jianfei asked Wang Tianlin to find a storage room. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com put all his selected items in temporarily, and then brought a big truck to take them away before the filming.
After everything was settled, when Kang Jianfei paid the advance deposit, Wang Tianlin said with a sigh, “I thought you said you were going to make a movie just for fun, but I didn’t expect you to actually set up the crew.”
Kang Jianfei said with a smile, “Just one step at a time, as long as the movie can be made.”
“You are much more promising than Ah Xiang (Wang Jing). After this kid got married, he kept saying he wanted to make a movie, but he hasn’t seen any news for more than a year. He is afraid of hitting the street.” Wang Tianlin said earnestly, “A Fei, If you encounter any difficulties in making a movie, just tell Uncle Tianlin that I will help where I can, and if I can’t help, I can also come up with ideas.”
Kang Jianfei was a little moved by what he said, and he couldn’t tell how true what Wang Tianlin said, and said, “Thank you Uncle Tianlin for taking care of me, I will definitely make this movie well.”
Wang Tianlin nodded with satisfaction and asked, “When are you going to start the machine?”
Kang Jianfei said, “One week later.”
