Dreams of the Fragrant River

Kang Jianfei knew that being an assistant director was tiring, but he didn't expect to be so **** tired!

From the 12th, Wang Tianlin began to convene various departments to set up the "Shanghai Beach" crew, and then auditioned to select actors. From the moment of preparation, Kang Jianfei began to work hard. Every decision Wang Tianlin made had to be coordinated and executed by him. Often when Wang Tianlin said a word casually, Kang Jianfei had to work all day.

Fortunately, the producer of this drama is Wang Tianlin. Those technicians and actors are not afraid to play big names. Basically, when Kang Jian flew to coordinate, everyone laughed and discussed. If it is replaced by a producer with a low prestige, then it will be enough for the assistant director to drink a pot, and everyone has to pretend to be a grandson and call him uncle, which is simply not a human thing!

"Brother Fei, give me a character with lines, just one line will do."

"Yes, Ah Fei, I used to get you a lunch box, so I have to take care of it."

"..."

Several extras who had chatted with Kang Jianfei a few times before were surrounding him with good words and asking for roles, causing Kang Jianfei to have a headache. But this precedent must not be set, otherwise more people will come to him to intercede.

After being annoyed by these people, Kang Jianfei finally couldn't help roaring, "If you want a good character to find a field manager, I don't care about that!"

Several extras were blasted away and cursed in a low voice. Kang Jianfei didn't need to listen to know that these guys were cursing him.

After dismissing the extras, Kang Jianfei didn't catch his breath when another drama staff rushed over anxiously and said, "A Fei, the classic car I'm going to use this afternoon is broken!"

"If the car is broken, find someone to fix it!" Kang Jianfei said in a depressed tone, he had to come to him for such trivial matters, what are these people doing!

The theater staff said, "It was repaired, but if it wasn't repaired, the engine was scrapped."

Kang Jianfei said speechlessly, "Then go to other crews on the set to borrow it!"

The production staff laughed and said, "We think so too, we're going to trouble you again."

Kang Jianfei was taken aback for a moment, and then he remembered that he should coordinate the matter of borrowing a car, and he couldn't help but burst out a foul language: "Grass!"

The broken one is a nostalgic classic car. There are only a few cars in the Clear Water Bay studio, and it will be used as a shooting prop in the afternoon. Now the problem of the car must be solved.

Kang Jianfei ran to Wang Tianlin to ask for a few phone calls, and then called one by one to borrow a car, but it turned out that other crews also wanted to use it, so it was temporarily unavailable.

Seeing that the filming time was approaching, Kang Jianfei hadn't borrowed the car yet, so he could only go to Wang Tianlin to discuss, "Uncle Tianlin, the car can't be borrowed, it seems we have to think of other ways."

Wang Tianlin was not in a hurry, he smiled and asked him like a Maitreya Buddha, "Then what do you think is the best way?"

Kang Jianfei expressed his thoughts: "Otherwise, let's shoot with the broken car. When shooting, use a car in front to drag it, and then cover the rope later."

"That's right, just do it like this." Wang Tianlin nodded in appreciation.

"Shanghai Beach" started on the 25th. Although Kang Jianfei has made many omissions in the past few days, he can always come up with the best solution at the critical moment. This kind of performance made Wang Tianlin appreciate him more and more. He felt that Kang Jianfei was born to be filmed, and it was a waste of talent to write novels!

The filming in the afternoon was finally able to proceed normally. Kang Jianfei talked with the heads of the various departments of the crew again. After all the work was properly arranged, he began to think about tomorrow's affairs again.

A whole day passed in confusion, and Kang Jianfei finally breathed a sigh of relief. The actors and crew members left one after another, but Kang Jianfei couldn't finish work. He had to report the general situation of today's shooting and discuss tomorrow's shooting plan with the producer Wang Tianlin. He was busy until eight o'clock in the evening before he could finally go home.

When he was leaving, he found that Uncle Biao and Hu Juncai were actually waiting for him outside the set. Kang Jianfei asked curiously, "Why haven't you left yet?"

Wu Chenggang smiled and said, "You've been exhausted for the past two weeks. Ah Cai said that you all eat instant noodles every night. I'll let your cousin make delicious food to nourish your body."

In his last life, Kang Jianfei had never felt the warmth of his family since he was five years old. Wu Chenggang's words made his heart warm.

The three took Wang Tianlin's hitchhiker back to the radio channel, and then took the bicycle to their uncle's house. As soon as they entered the door, they could smell the aroma of the food, which made Kang Jianfei, who had been eating instant noodles for half a month, couldn't help but swallow.

"You guys are back," Liang Ying, who has always been mean-spirited, came over with a smile on his face, pulled Kang Jianfei and said, "A Fei, sit down, it's been a long time for you."

Kang Jianfei didn't know what medicine Liang Ying was selling in the gourd, and Zhou Mingfang's next sentence finally solved his confusion, only to hear her say: "A Fei, thanks to your great face this time, your cousin was able to become a lighting engineer again. "Auntie didn't hurt you in vain."

Hu Juncai also smiled and said: "Yes, when he was in Bao'an, Ah Fei was the best brain in the village, and now he can finally show his strength. Ah Fei is not ordinary now, he is very powerful in the crew, except for Wang Everyone other than the producer has to listen to what he has to say. If Fei says anything casually, even I can play the role well."

Hu Juncai played Chang Gui, the friend of Ding Li in the Zhabei slum, and he was the one who helped Xu Wenqiang to escape from his injuries. Although it is only a small supporting role, but the role is very heavy, and it can also be said to be a key figure in promoting the development of the plot.

Liang Ying was surprised: "So powerful? Then, Ah Fei, you should take care of your cousin in the future."

Kang Jianfei explained with a smile, "It's just an errand to spread the word. If it wasn't for producer Wang's face, few people in the entire crew would care about me."

Zhou Mingfang said: "It's not easy. How long have you been in Hong Kong? You can already be an assistant director. Although this position is very tiring and the salary is not high, it is the right-hand man of the producer, and it has a promising future."

Kang Jianfei glanced at Zhou Mingfang in surprise. The aunt spoke well, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze, and she knew so much about the crew. It seemed that she was not just a housewife.

Seeing Kang Jianfei's doubts, Wu Chenggang explained, "Mingfang used to be an actor in Cathay Pacific Pictures, and later worked as a finance worker in Jiashi for a while."

Kang Jianfei suddenly realized that his aunt Zhou Mingfang was originally an insider.

Wu Chenggang suddenly asked: "By the way, A Fei, you write novels well, why did you come back to be an assistant director?"

Kang Jianfei said, "Train yourself and get to know more people by the way."

Wu Chenggang asked, "Do you want to work in TVB in the future?"

Kang Jianfei shook his head and said, "I'm going to start my own film company."

Wu Chenggang said with a serious expression: "A Fei, you have to be more careful about starting a company. It's okay for you to buy a house for hundreds of thousands of dollars. You can't even see a splash when you break into a film company."

"I know this," Kang Jianfei asked. "Uncle Biao, you have a lot of knowledge in Hong Kong. Is there any film company ready to sell it? It's a smaller film company. I want to take over."

Wu Chenggang opened his mouth wide in shock. After a long time, he said, "Are you serious?"

Kang Jianfei nodded and said, "Seriously, it's too troublesome to register a company by yourself. If there is a suitable small company to transfer, that's fine."

Wu Chenggang pondered: "There are many film companies in Hong Kong that are on the verge of bankruptcy. In the past two years, Hong Kong film competition has become more and more fierce. Many filmmakers are preparing to change careers. Why do you want to plunge into this murky water, Ah Fei?"

Kang Jianfei said: "You don't need to worry about this. I've made up my mind. If you lose money, it's a big deal. If there is a suitable company to transfer, please let me know. If you introduce it, it will be cheaper if you don't set the price."

Wu Chenggang stared at Kang Jianfei for a long time, and it seemed that flowers had grown on his face. He did not directly discourage him, but asked, "A Fei, it is not that simple to start a film company. After the company is opened, where can you find it when making movies? Manpower? Do you know how to produce? Who do you ask for distribution? The current theater chain only shows your own films, and you don’t even have the chance to show your films after you make them.”

Kang Jianfei insisted: "I will solve all these problems. If you think it is not feasible, I will find it myself, or simply register a new film company."

Seeing that he couldn't convince Wu Chenggang, he could only sigh, "Oh, let me ask for you."

Back in the apartment of Broadcast Channel, Hu Juncai finally couldn't help but ask, "A Fei, do you really want to start a company?"

Kang Jianfei asked back, "You also object?"

Hu Juncai said hesitantly: "It's not against it, I think it's pretty good now, I don't have to worry about food and clothing, and I can still live in such a big house~www.wuxiahere.com~ What a pity if I lose money."

"Small wealth is safe, this kind of thinking will never make a big fortune!"

Kang Jianfei despised Hu Juncai and went back to his room to spread out the manuscript, preparing to write the first movie script for his future company.

The choice of the movie must be very careful, because Kang Jianfei can't afford to lose. Once the movie is shot, he will be beaten back to his original form. Moreover, Hong Kong's cinemas are now in the hands of several major cinema chains, and it is impossible for his films to get a good schedule. In addition, there is not much money for promotion, so the film must be novel in genre and catch the audience's eyes at once!

From the perspective of type, the popular gambling films and zombie films of future Hong Kong films have not yet emerged at this time, so you can choose between these two types.

First of all, gambling films were ruled out. This kind of film would cost a lot of money just to set up casinos and gambling games, and he was also very picky about the choice of actors. Kang Jianfei was not capable of making gambling films.

Then there's only zombie movies left!

The first thing Kang Jianfei thought of was "Mr. Zombie", but the investment in this film was too big, and Kang Jianfei didn't have that much money, so he could only give up temporarily.

The quickest way to make a movie is to find a wealthy person for investment, but Kang Jianfei, a young man who has never touched a guide tube, will only invest money in him if he loses his mind.

Kang Jianfei only has more than 500,000 yuan in his hands, and he can only use this money to make a small-budget movie.

Small cost, zombie film, small cost, zombie film...

Kang Jianfei suddenly had a flash of light in his mind and thought of a very famous low-budget comedy ghost movie - "Happy Ghost".
