Hai Du City.
A beam of light shot out from the projector and projected onto the screen, forming a moving image frame by frame. As the sound was turned off, the movie was silent, like a silent movie from a hundred years ago.
Patter, patter...
A square-faced man in a leather jacket sat on the sofa and stared at the screen.
Perhaps he had looked at it for too long, the blood vessels in his eyes ruptured and formed spider-like blood vessels.
He was pleasantly surprised.
The man would casually pick up a pen and write down his thoughts in a notebook at the side, or draw a shot composition by hand. There were piles of notes like this in the room.
"Ding ding ding…"
The urgent ringing of the phone broke the silence. The man picked up the phone and took a deep puff of his cigarette.
On the other end of the phone was the voice of the landlord urging for rent.
"Big sister, please be lenient."
The man's lips twitched.
It was difficult for a man from the Northwest to lower his head.
His name was Zhang Tianmou, and he graduated from the Beijing Film Academy's Director Department. However, due to his poor family background, he was ostracized everywhere after graduation and could not get a decent investment. After shooting a few rural films, he bid farewell to the film industry.
After switching to television dramas, the situation did not improve. He was middle-aged and accomplished nothing.
"I say, Director Zhang."
"Your classmates from Beijing Film Academy have all become famous directors in the country. Why can't you even afford the rent?”
"They both graduated from the Beijing Film Academy, but the difference is really huge.”
The landlord's taunting voice sounded.
"Big, big sister…"
Zhang Tianmou smoked his cigarette fiercely. He had finally gotten the landlord to postpone the rent for another half a month.
However, half a month later…
He exhaled a mouthful of smoke.
The man curled up on the sofa, his hands grabbing his hair. His lips were closed, and he looked a little unwilling.
When he was in university, his skills surpassed all his classmates. After graduation, he never slacked off. Other than eating and sleeping every day, he worked, watched films, and studied color composition.
However, the director industry required capital. The highest budget for his film was only 1 million yuan per film. He could not shoot the scene he wanted at all.
Cigarette.
One after another.
After some time, the phone rang again. It was an unknown number. The man pressed the answer button.
"Hello, I'm Su Mi's manager, Sister Li..."
A mature female voice sounded.
"Sister Li?"
The man was surprised. Su Mi's manager was quite well-known in the industry. Many directors liked to work with Su Mi because she was generous with money!
"Director Zhang, it's like this. Our Su Mi has a modern drama that she wants you to direct. There are a total of 13 episodes.”
"The investor is the Jianjia Group. Excluding the service and the actor fees, the total investment is 52 million.”
"That's right, Jian Jia who sells a bag for 1 million!”
"Also, Jianjia Group hopes to hire Director Zhang as the marketing director with an annual salary of 1 million.”
He listened.
The man raised his head and his eyes widened in shock.
Directing the microphone for the film queen Su Mi was undoubtedly a cake that fell from the sky for a third-tier TV director.
At the beginning.
When he found out that it was a 13-episode modern drama, the man thought that it was just a small project. However, when he heard the budget, his mouth immediately opened slightly and he was speechless.
Fifty-two million yuan, excluding the actors 'salaries and the cost of convincing them. For a 13-episode short film, this was a sky-high investment, reaching the level of a movie.
The investor, Jianjia Group, was indeed rich!
"Alright, Sister Li."
"I'll go to Jianjia Group tomorrow morning to meet the investors.”
The man tried his best to remain calm.
In his moment of despair, he had thrown out a huge project with a budget of 52 million yuan. How was this an investor? This was simply a great benefactor!
The call ended.
The man opened the webpage and looked up Jian Jia's information.
His previous understanding of Jian Jia was limited to a bag that cost 1 million. But now, after browsing the pictures on the website, he couldn't help but applaud the design of the platinum bag.
This company's aesthetic was very high-class, easily moving the men's picky eyes.
From an aesthetic point of view, Jianjia Company had reached the top of the world.
Working with such an investor.
It should be very pleasant.
...
The next day.
Gu Bai was dressed in a grey tracksuit, looking very casual. He held a ruler in his left hand and a pen in his right as he drew a design blueprint on a piece of white paper.
He had already spent dozens of chanel style blueprints.
These were the costumes of the crew.
"President Gu, do you need so many blueprints?”
Aunt Liu asked.
"Of course."
"The group of wealthy ladies in the drama 'Woman 30' has at least one set of clothes in each episode. As for the main characters, they had at least three sets of clothes in each episode.”
"From the beginning to the end, everyone's clothes are not the same. In total, we need more than a hundred sets of chanel style.”
Three sets of clothes in one episode?
Was this still a TV series? Was this a model show?
Aunt Liu pursed her lips.
"On the surface,'Woman 30' is a TV drama, but in fact, it's a fashion advertisement.”
"All the plots are for the clothing.”
"All the characters are chanel style's clothes racks.”
Gu Bai explained.
In his previous life, it was not uncommon to see cases of using movies and television dramas to promote luxury brands.
In 1961, a movie called Breakfast at Tiffany's was released. The scene of Audrey Hobben eating breakfast in front of Tiffany's window became a movie classic, winning the annual box office and two Oscar nominees.
Tiffany Co., with this movie, had secured the throne of the number one luxury jewelry brand in North America for half a century.
Coincidentally.
In 2006, the movie " The Devil Wears Prada " also portrayed Prada as synonymous with Kochi women and brought the brand to fame.
Gu Bai also had the ambition to make this " Woman 30 " into a legendary commercial.
...
After a while.
Under the guidance of the staff, a middle-aged man with short hair and a wrinkled leather jacket was brought in.
It was the director, Zhang Tianmou.
"Younger than I imagined."
Gu Bai's eyes narrowed slightly. Due to the difference in the world line, Director Zhang had just entered the prime of his life.
This was good too, she was in the golden period of creation, she could shoot more advertisements for Jian Jia.
After a round of conversation.
The two of them finalized some details for the shoot.
To this stubborn northwestern man.
Gu Bai was completely at ease. Putting aside his script skills, Director Zhang was definitely the best in the world.
The red lanterns, Jing Ke's assassination of Qin, the emerald bamboo forest, ink paintings, the countdown ceremony, the lighting ceremony, there were too many classic scenes. Any random frame of the advertisement would be a top-notch blockbuster!
On the other side.
Zhang Tianmou's impression of Gu Bai was also very surprising. As a director who was extremely picky about the scene, he was immediately impressed when he saw the dozens of clothing designs that Gu Bai had hand-drawn.
There was even a feeling of mutual appreciation and regret that they had met earlier.
Zhang Tianmou naturally did not hesitate to recruit Gu Bai. He was a marketing director with an annual salary of one million yuan. He did not interfere with his freedom of creation. He also had various advertising contracts every year. He did not even dare to imagine such treatment.
After signing the contract.
Gu Bai received a row of messages.
Congratulations! Your luxury brand has recruited the first S-grade talent. Reward: 1000 luxury points!
Oh?
Director Zhang was actually an S-grade talent?
