Yu Dong finally chose a relatively "remote" office. It was on the north side of the third floor. Although the lighting was not very good, he could see the school playground when he opened the window. He liked to see the playground and saw the students on the playground.
The sweat on his face made him feel very good.
Moreover, there are few teachers working in this area, so there are few people coming and going. As long as the windows are closed, the office will be very quiet.
The logistics department quickly arranged the office, including desks, bookcases, sofas and coffee tables.
Yu Dong also moved to a new office soon, and the script of "The Tuner" was completed in the new office.
After the script was completed, Yu Dong handed it to Jia Zhangke.
Jia Zhangke was a little nervous before he got the script. He was not worried that the script written by Yu Dong was not of good quality, but he was worried that it would be difficult to shoot the script.
But after getting the script, he felt relieved. This short film was basically not difficult to shoot. The only valuable prop was the piano, but there were many Jinyi pianos. Not to mention the piano room in the complex, the teacher
There are two pianos over there in the staff dormitory.
The props and scenes are all fine, the only thing left is the actors.
There are only three main characters in the short film, the tuner himself, the tuner's agent and the murderer.
And among these three people, the agent and the murderer actually don't have much of a role to play, the most important one is the sound engineer.
Jia Zhangke initially wanted to find acting students to help play the tuner, but then he thought about it and thought it was not feasible.
The acting major is only in the first year, so acting skills are not guaranteed. Moreover, the sound engineer character written by Yu Dong should be around thirty years old and has some life experience. A first-year college student is not suitable for the role.
After thinking about it for a long time, Jia Zhangke decided to try to find Yunlong.
When they were interning on the crew of "Don't Talk to Strangers", they had more contact with Yunlong Chuan and the relationship was pretty good.
…
Zhen Yunlong has not been having a good time during this period. Although he has participated in "Don't Talk to Strangers", the TV series has not been broadcast yet. He is not well-known now, and no director has approached him to film.
When he received a call from Jia Zhangke, he had just returned home from Renyi. He went to Renyi to find Feng Yuanyi. He made friends with Feng Yuanyi during the last filming, and the two met often after returning to Yanjing.
Although Feng Yuanyi is allergic to alcohol and cannot drink, they often make appointments to drink together. Every time at the wine table, he drinks and Feng Yuanyi eats.
"Xiao Jia, long time no see?"
"Long time no see, Brother Yunlong, have you been busy recently?"
Zhen Yunlong smiled and said, "I also want to say that I am very busy, but unfortunately, I have not been busy at all recently. I guess I am not as busy as you. You are a senior this year and are preparing to graduate, right?"
"Yes, it just so happened that Deep Space Company recently held a short film competition, and I filmed it together with my graduation project."
"You created a drama, but you also want to make a graduation film?" Zheng Yunlong asked doubtfully.
“I didn’t say you have to take a photo, but you can get extra points if you do.”
"That's good. This way you have an advantage. Not many of your drama creators can produce works. I also know about the Deep Space short film competition. My friend at the film school told me that there are also students there who are preparing to participate.
, I heard that the rewards are quite attractive.”
"The prize money is not that big, but if you win the competition, you can get support funds from the Deep Space Company."
Zhen Yunlong smiled and nodded, "Then you work hard. Depending on your ability, you should have no problem getting a ranking."
Jia Zhangke smiled and said, "Brother Yunlong, actually I called you this time for this reason."
"Me? You don't want me to act for you, right?" Zheng Yunlong said with a smile.
"It's true, my script is ready. I thought about it for a long time and felt that the protagonist is more suitable for you, so I took the liberty to call you and ask you." Then Jia Zhangke added, "Brother Dong wrote the script."
Zhen Yunlong was stunned. He said it casually, but he never thought that Jia Zhangke would really ask him to film a movie. After all, it was just a student competition and a short film.
But when he heard that the script was written by Yu Dong, he became a little interested, "What type is it?"
"It's suspenseful and thrilling. No matter how much it is, it's not convenient for me to talk on the phone. If you are interested, Brother Yunlong, I can go to Yanjing to find you with the script." Jia Zhangke said sincerely.
Zhen Yunlong thought for a while and said, "Let's go to Jinling and let's talk face to face."
"This... is so embarrassing."
"Don't be sorry, I just happened to go meet Teacher Yu Dong. If it can be filmed, we will film it directly after this trip. Isn't it a short film? It shouldn't take long, right?"
"It won't take long to shoot. I estimate it can be completed in a week at most."
"That's no problem."
"The cost..."
"Let's talk about it after we go. It's too early to talk about this now."
"Okay, then I'll be waiting for you in Jinling."
…
After hanging up the phone with Jia Zhangke, Zhi Yunlong found Yu Dong's phone number and dialed it, but unfortunately no one answered the phone.
Putting down the phone, Zhen Yunlong lay on the sofa and thought about what Jia Zhangke just said.
The reason why he was tempted was actually not just because the script was written by Yu Dong. On the one hand, he has not been filming recently, so he is really irritable. On the other hand, he has had a lot of contact with Jia Zhangke, and this guy still has some abilities and is trustworthy.
.
It just so happened that the Chinese New Year was coming soon, so I took advantage of the opportunity to go there before the Chinese New Year without delaying his work.
He also wants to make a movie, but the preparations are not sufficient yet. If he can join more crews and accumulate some experience before that, he will definitely be better at making movies by himself in the future.
Just as he was thinking about his next plan, the phone next to him rang, and he quickly got up to answer it.
"Hello?"
The voice was very familiar. It was indeed Yu Dong who came back. Zheng Yunlong smiled and said, "Teacher Yu Dong, I am Zheng Yunlong."
Yu Dong was very happy when he received a call from Yunlong, "It's Brother Yunlong, you're welcome and well."
"It's okay, it's okay, that's it. Jia Zhangke called me just now and asked me to participate in his short film."
Yu Dong smiled and said, "This guy even found you. He's quite thick-skinned. He didn't even think about what kind of actor you are, Brother Yunlong. How could you participate in a short film made by one of his students? This guy, look back on me."
Come criticize him."
"Oh, Teacher Yu, you slapped me in the face with what you said. I'm just an ordinary little actor. I'm quite happy that Xiao Jia can ask me to film a movie."
"Brother Yunlong, I think it was you who was slapping me in the face. Last time we had a drink, you were still calling me Brother Yu. Why did you become so distant after not seeing each other for a few days?"
Zhen Yunlong said with some embarrassment, "I did drink too much last time and was embarrassed."
"No, no, it's pretty good. I like Brother Yunlong's true temperament." Yu Dong smiled and said, "As for Jia Zhangke's short film, I wrote the script. It's not bad. If you don't have anything else to do here,
, you can take the time to help me."
"Brother Yu... the script you wrote must be fine. I have agreed with Xiao Jia that we will go to Jinling for an interview in the next two days. I wonder if you will have time then. Can we meet?"
"No problem, just come over and tell me anytime... You can come over before this weekend. I have made an appointment with a few friends to go to my house for a get-together over the weekend. You can come too, there will be a lot of fun."
"Then it's better to be respectful than obey orders." Zheng Yunlong said with a smile.
