Chapter 689: Favorite Things
Han Jue finished explaining the matter. When he left the studio, he found that it was already very dark outside. It was cloudy all afternoon, but it never rained. The temperature was chilly at night, warning people that it was still in the cold winter. Han Jue shivered, wrapped his thin coat that he had been through Dali, and immediately got into the car.
"Boss, are you going home or going directly to Dali?" Xiao Zhou asked.
Han Jue pressed his forehead against the cold window and replied lazily: "Go and get some food first."
He had fast food for dinner, and now he relaxed, feeling like he had never eaten anything.
Han Jue looked at his phone and Zhang Yiman had sent two messages. The first one was that she had finished the competition and had to wait for the voting results next. The second one was that he would be in the Magic City for a few more days to deal with things and deal with them slowly. Don't worry, she would take care of Valentine's Day when she went home.
Han Jue smiled and put away his phone after replying to the message. Xiao Zhou said wrongly just now, and he should ask whether he is going to the house in the Magic City or to go home - where Zhang Yiman and Valentine's Day are there, it is only the writer for Han Jue.
"Come on air tickets and leave tonight." Han Jue said to Guan Yi.
Xiao Zhou couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this: "Is this possible?"
Han Jue said: "It's just that the direction has been set. Next, Master Guan will be responsible for the next thing."
Xiao Zhou hurriedly asked about the discussion results.
Guan Yi was booking a plane ticket and didn't want to pay attention to Xiao Zhou, so Han Jue gave a rough talk.
...
After calling Zhang Yiman in the afternoon, Han Jue returned to the conference room and told everyone what he had just made.
First, he refused to hackers and did not pay the ransom. Then he actively disclosed the materials and asked people to download them for free. Unpublished songs were mixed in advance, and the name was to provide Zhang Yiman with choices for "Singer".
After listening, everyone started a discussion immediately and quickly listed the following publicity directions: "Dark Web" and hackers, charity, Han Juezhang Yiman showing his love, Han Jue's tough personality... If you are a little more biased, you can also connect such operations to the "i am a singer" period, and expose the news that "Han Jue and Gu An are the same person] is hidden.
If everything goes well, the crisis will end here. But who has given them a pessimistic boss, who has been influenced by the eyes and never thought about getting off work before he could come up with the worst situation.
Everyone was thinking about what to do when the worst situation occurred. If netizens were still sharp-eyed, still found something wrong in the lyrics, and successfully formed a momentum under the encouragement of those who were interested, then they would have to face two problems in the end: brand endorsement and Weng Nanxi.
Zhang Jinshan was finally willing to tell the countermeasures he had thought in advance. Some of his plans were like Han Jue's, "the materials were made public for free downloads. If a user chooses to pay normally, these benefits will be used as charity." But the other different parts are, "If things go from the direction, we can take the opportunity to disclose the charity records of these years. First, we can divert attention, and second, we can reverse the negative impression. If we tear up with Weng Nanxi, we will have the advantage."
Yan Xu agreed, saying that when the public encounters a quarrel, they do not necessarily choose to support the right side. They will only support the side of people who are more familiar to them. They think you are a good person, and as long as you don’t make big mistakes and are not caught in evidence, you will always be a good person.
Han Jue does not have to be anonymous to do charity. He has acted silently before, but he is unwilling to make a statement. However, if he makes public, he can do good deeds publicly. At least he can call on more people to pay attention to the children's problems. In this case, Han Jue would not mind "seeking fame and reputation".
But he was just wondering now: "The problem is that I was not that good before. The Internet has memories. There are still people circulating videos of me hitting people in the show. Everyone's first impression of me is a bad person. Later, when I said that I went to charity, it would only make people feel that I was whitewashing, right?"
"It doesn't matter. No matter how bad you are, it doesn't matter. The key is that you are better than Weng Nanxi." Yan Xu said: "This is the same as [Bear Chasing People]. You don't have to run faster than bears. You just need to run faster than the people around you. Weng Nanxi used to have bad reputations on the Internet, and all kinds of rumors have not stopped yet. We can just sing a few at that time..."
"Don't do that." Han Jue interrupted Yan Xu's speech.
Everyone looked at Han Jue one after another.
Han Jue said: "It has nothing to do with her. I just think it is too despicable to attack women with [slutty and humiliation]."
Zhang Jinshan wanted to say something but stopped, but in the end he wanted to say something but didn't say anything.
Qin Xiaotong and Guan Yi were very calm, as if they were not surprised by Han Jue's words.
Yan Xu stared at Han Jue's extremely serious eyes, thought about it, but still didn't say that the public opinion war was not about treating guests to dinner, but about the interests of both parties, it was about war, and it was about fighting to the death. He just nodded without any distortion, as if he had just been a conscientious waiter, asking the guest if he wanted coriander, but the guest said he didn't want it.
As a public relations worker in the entertainment industry, Yan Xu has seen a lot of dirty and vicious means and the darkness of human nature. Han Jue can be said to be the cleanest and simpler one of the clients he has ever been in charge. Although Han Jue's persistence is a bit naive, he does not hate it. What's more, as a service industry, his job is to follow the requirements of Party A and try to do the best things.
Yan Xu said: "Okay, there are many articles you can do in the charity you have done. And the war may not start at that time. If the undisclosed songs are not caught, Weng Nanxi will have no reason to argue with us."
Everyone nodded and prayed that it would be better not to reach that step. Even if it reached that step, Zhang Yiman, who represents [Aidu], took the initiative to negotiate. If the negotiations fail, it would be a two-for-one battle, and the chances of winning are very high.
The last problem is the endorsement issue, which is easy to solve.
When Yan Xu learned about the amount of money Han Jue used for charity every year, the children's welfare home that had been built, the Hope Primary School that had been built, and the [Nutritional Lunch] charity event, he said that after these promotions were made, the brand endorsement side would not have to worry about it. If the operation was done properly, he could even cooperate with the official.
With the decision to make a decision, everyone can finally get off work. The rest of the work is to prepare and mobilize each person and start preventing it in stages. Everyone performs their duties and is not unfamiliar with what they should do. After all, there were rehearsals in October last year.
...
"Where is me? What about me?" Xiao Zhou eagerly asked Guan Yi for work, and wanted to contribute to this matter.
"Just drive well," said Guan Yi.
Xiao Zhou felt insulted and was very dissatisfied and said, "Are I not driving well enough now? Let's see if I drift!" After that, he reached out.
While Xiao Zhou stretched out his hand, Guan Yi also stretched out his hand.
"Win!" Xiao Zhou felt the touch of his palm, and was ecstatic, feeling that his drivers in the past two years had not been in vain, and his hand speed actually surpassed Master Guan.
But the next second, Xiao Zhou felt something seemed to have grown on his right ear.
"Slowly put your hands on the steering wheel." Guan Yi's fingers moved slightly.
Xiao Zhou was discouraged and had no courage. He could only drive honestly and never dared to talk about drifting or passing through drainage channels.
Guan Yi turned around and talked to Han Jue about the flight ticket: "The most recent trip was around 12 o'clock, and if it's now... it's still three hours away. Can you buy it?"
Han Jue nodded: "Buy it."
Xiao Zhou said he was less than an hour away from the airport and asked Han Jue what to do if the remaining two hours were left?
Han Jue thought about it and said to go to [Tinder] to see.
Xiao Zhou shouted like a driver, "Okay!", then he hit the steering wheel and drove the car to [Tinder] with a familiarity.
The TV series "Black Mirror" has been completed and is now in the later stage. Since it is agreed with [Xiangyun] to be broadcasted in one episode a week, the time is not too urgent. During the entire filming process, Han Jue integrated and sorted out the directorial skills he learned while bringing new people. The new people are sixteen young directors brought by the United States. They spend half of their time listening to classes in the film school and half of their time working in the crew. When they are free, they watch movies or read books, and the expenses are all under the responsibility of the company.
When they are in the crew, they are usually rarely fixed, sometimes in the lighting group, and sometimes in the director group. This is not only to be familiar with the operation of each link, but also to personally understand how they read movies in this position when they are a cameraman/lighter/propist. In the end, they are all those who can be fixed in the position of deputy director.
Nicole debuted as a movie actor. Although she immediately switched to drama, she was experienced in the theater and had a good deal of dealing with people. When other peers who had just graduated were still not afraid to communicate too much for various reasons, she ignored it and grabbed the team leader’s questions and brought gifts to ask what shouldn’t be asked. Soon the whole group passed the level and was fixed as an assistant director. She participated in the filming of some clips of one of the episodes of "Black Mirror", becoming the best among her peers.
Everyone has no complaints about this. Because many people know that Nicole studies hard and knows what many demons at four in the morning are like. In addition to taking care of the children, she spends almost all her time studying.
When Han Jue and the others arrived at the company, Nicole was watching the sound effects engineer work in the recording studio, learning how to use sound to tell stories or enrich stories.
Han Jue came in and saw Nicole and asked in surprise why she was here at this time. It was so late, so don’t you have to take care of the child?
Nicole smiled embarrassedly and said she came over until the child was asleep.
Xiao Zhou frowned secretly, feeling that Nicole's hard-working level was almost up to him. What if the boss took it into consideration and took it as an apprentice?
Han Jue wore headphones and listened to a few sound effects, chatted with the leader of the sound effects group, and then prepared to go out elsewhere.
As a result, Nicole followed.
She said to Han Jue: "Boss, do you know any crew that are recruiting people? I want to go over and learn."
Han Jue looked at Nicole and knew that Nicole was eager to study, so he advised her that it was not only possible to learn on the crew, "You can try writing scripts and expand your short film."
Nicole said seriously: "I've written it."
"I've written it..." Han Jue was stunned for a while before asking: "It's very efficient. Do you carry the script with you?"
Nicole took out a script with traces of alteration from her bag, and seemed to be preparing for this moment at all times.
Han Jue took it seriously, not daring to be perfunctory, so he found a sofa in the rest area to sit down and looked directly.
Nicole sat down quietly and began to feel nervous.
Xiao Zhou comforted her: "Don't be nervous, the script is modified over and over again, and it is common to rewrite it all, you have to get used to it." After saying that, he also used himself as an example, saying that the script of "The Tuner" was revised dozens of times, otherwise it would not be possible to win the [Golden Bull Award]. "When the boss criticizes it later, don't be sad, it's all for your own good..."
"Not bad." Han Jue nodded.
Xiao Zhouyi's expression on his face was [I'll just say it].
"It's well written. Change it a few more times, adjust the structure, and improve some details, and you can almost ask for money from producer Xia." Han Jue closed the script.
"What!" "What!" Xiao Zhou and Nicole spoke at the same time, but one was surprised and the other was happy.
"It's just that the marriage story is full of good life. Why does the style of the marriage suddenly become... suspense?" Han Jue remembers that Nicole's short film tells the story of the couple's separation, which is very lifelike. But the feature film version he is holding now, although also focusing on the marital status, the whole story plot is completely different, with a larger range and a more ruthless degree. "A couple who are extremely loving, as the days pass by day, their relationship becomes duller. On the morning of the fifth anniversary of the marriage, the husband returned home and suddenly found that his wife disappeared..." Han Jue looked at the cover of the script, called "Missing". Han Jue exclaimed in his heart.
Nicole explained: "I talked to Director Sun a few times after watching "Network Mystery" before I tried to add suspense elements."
"It's pretty good." Han Jue sighed in his heart that there were too many suspense films in their company.
"Boss, what part do you think the structure you want to adjust is?" Nicole happily pulled over the chair and sat next to Han Jue, as if she wanted to talk carefully about the script with Han Jue.
Han Jue also wanted to chat, but time did not allow it.
He told Nicole that if she said today, she would go back and make a backup of the script online, and then leave some evidence that proved that she had created the script first. After everything was done, she would pass on an electronic version of the script to him. When he was in Dali, he could help her change it when he had time.
After hearing this, Nicole naturally nodded repeatedly, and her whole body exuded joy.
Han Jue understood this joy very well. When he heard that his script was about to be filmed on TV, he was also so excited. He would never forget that feeling.
only……
When did he regard making movies as a pure job?
"Wait a minute," Han Jue called Nicole who was about to leave and said, "Your crew work."
Nicole turned around.
Han Jue was silent for a moment and said, "My new movie is recruiting people, come and be the assistant director."
"Really? Thank you, boss!" Nicole was happy and responded loudly. When she turned around and left, her steps were full of wind.
Han Jue also left the rest area and walked in the other direction.
Xiao Zhou ran to Han Jue and stared at him with wide eyes, as if he wanted to see if Han Jue was himself.
Han Jue had to push Xiao Zhou's face away.
Xiao Zhou was extremely puzzled: "Boss! Where did you come from to make a new movie? Didn't you just finish the TV series? I'll take a movie right away? Boss, this is not like your style!"
Han Jue also felt that this was not like his own style. In his style, if he had just finished filming a work and had not rested for a year or two, letting him work again would be like his life. But after calling Zhang Yiman in the afternoon, Han Jue began to reflect on whether he was right in his state of not wanting to do anything and not being able to do anything. I don’t know if this is not a retaliatory slackness, similar to college entrance examination candidates hanging their heads on their heads and stinging their thighs. They finally got into a prestigious university, but they started to relax as soon as they entered the school.
Han Jue found a test for himself. That is whether he was willing to do his favorite thing.
If he is willing to do it, it means he is still loving life and keeping his creation. If he is unwilling to do it, the problem will be really serious.
His favorite thing is naturally making movies.
Han Jue walked to Xia Yuan's office and knocked on the door, and heard that Xia Yuan was still inside.
Han Jue didn't talk nonsense, opened the door and directly found Xia Yuan from the storm of smoke. He sat down opposite his desk and said, "I want to make a movie."
"Slow." Xia Yuan turned the chair in a hurry and flicked the ash, and asked, "Let me tell me what the budget is. If it is less than 20 million, remember to bring the door when you go out."
"Sixty million." Han Jue stretched out five fingers.
Xia Yuan smiled and finally became interested. "I came back from a project that had been filmed over 100 million for [Xiangyun]. It really worked." Xia Yuan tsk a few times, crushed the cigarette butts, got up and poured tea for Han Jue, and asked, "Tell me, which movie to shoot?"
Chapter completed!
