Chapter 153

Chapter 1

After Wang Erya agreed to shoot the video, Jiang Qi began to seriously study the techniques of shooting and editing videos.

The specific method is to search online: how newcomers can shoot videos, video editing methods and precautions.

You know what, I actually found quite a few nanny-level tutorials.

Short videos are all the rage these days. People like Qingqing just shoot videos, edit them casually and post them online. It doesn’t matter if the number of views is low, as many people do it for their own entertainment.

Many of the aunties who danced with Jiang Xiaohong in the square like to shoot short videos. They take pictures of their grandchildren every day, upload them, and then ask their friends to like them for data. For a while, Jiang Xiaohong was also addicted to this, and the younger generations of the Jiang family didn't know how many likes she gave her.

There are all kinds of nanny-level tutorials on the Internet. Some say that you don’t need to buy equipment, content is king, and you can use a mobile phone and a tripod. Some suggest that novices buy cheap equipment first and make a list of equipment.

Jiang Qi ignored the obvious advertisements, and felt that everyone else had a point. Jiang Qi added a row to his shopping cart, and his choice difficulty syndrome broke out.

In desperation, Jiang Qi chose to ask Gong Ye for help.

As for why he asked for help from Gong Ye instead of Jiang Bing - it was because Jiang Bing was taken to the next city by Jiang Xiaohong to purchase goods, and he is probably working now and definitely has no time to look at his phone.

It is said that the neighboring city has just received a batch of women's clothing with high quality and low price, and all the owners of nearby clothing stores have flocked to buy them. Jiang Xiaohong was afraid that her aesthetics could not keep up with the trend of the times, so she asked Jiang Bing, who loves buying clothes, to be her advisor and went there last night.

Yes, Jiang Bing was away from home for a day, and Jiang Qi, as her younger brother who lived under the same roof with her, didn't notice it. It was only when he was browsing his Moments in the morning that he saw what Jiang Bing had posted on Moments last night that he realized she had been taken to the next city.

Jiang Qi sent a message to Gong Ye.

Jiang Qi: Director Gong, do you know what equipment is best for long videos? Do you have any recommended camera brands? Do I need a stabilizer? Do I need a fill light?

Gong Ye replied almost immediately.

Gong Ye (monthly card expires on December 7):?

Gong Ye (monthly card expires on December 7): Boss Jiang, you finally decided to make money by making videos and becoming an internet celebrity!

Jiang Qi who saw the news: ???

Why finally?

Jiang Qi briefly explained the general cause of the incident, and Gong Ye immediately took it seriously.

Gong Ye is a black-hearted bar owner who loves feudal superstition and just came back from a temple in another place to pray for talismans. What he believes in most now is the five-colored rope.

The five-colored string was woven by Wang Erya. (At least the one he was wearing was)

To round it off, Wang Erya is half a master.

The master's business is Gong Ye's business. Gong Ye immediately said enthusiastically that although he didn't know, he could ask his friends who knew about it.

The next second, Jiang Qi saw Gong Ye asking in the noodle-eating group if anyone knew what equipment was needed to shoot a video.

Jiang Qi: ...

So... Gong Ye doesn't know that he created this group?

November 18th, Monday, is the first day of work for most office workers.

The employees of Fang Jing's company were slacking off during the time when they should have been working, and actively responded to Gong Ye's questions.

Gong Ye really asked the right group.

As everyone knows, the noodle-eating group is the second work group of Fang Jing's company. Even the boss sometimes sends notifications to the noodle-eating group by mistake, so this group contains people from all kinds of positions.

There are art, photography, editing, planning, creativity and operation. This group can take care of everything from the creation of a short video to its publicity and promotion.

Professionals jumped out to answer Gong Ye's questions. An employee who had a good relationship with Gong Ye asked him if the bar business was not very good recently and he wanted to make some extra money by shooting short videos as a side job.

Gong Ye said that his bar business was booming, and then @江祺 said that Jiang Qi wanted to shoot a video.

Then people started chatting with Jiang Qi privately.

The first person to chat privately with Jiang Qi was Zhou Yuan, a non-staff employee of Xinghe Script Shop. Although Zhou Yuan had not come to the store much recently due to being very busy with work and often had to work overtime, in everyone's minds she was still a non-staff employee of the script shop, and occasionally when she passed by, everyone would grab her and let her in to check on the store.

Zhou Yuan asked Jiang Qi if he needed any promotion for his video. Their company recently had a special promotion package for new employees, and the price was very cheap. She could even help Jiang Qi get the employee price, which was a discount on top of the discount.

Jiang Qi made the reservation directly, even though not even a second of the video had been shot yet.

The second person who chatted privately with Jiang Qi was the editor. He had come to the restaurant to eat vegetable noodles several times, but Jiang Qi didn’t remember his face. He was the one who edited the previous team-building video.

After asking Jiang Qi what type of video he wanted to shoot, the editor said that this type of video was easy to shoot and edit, and if Jiang Qi needed it, he could help with the editing after get off work, as long as he gave him two kilograms of braised food.

Jiang Qi agreed on the spot.

The third person who chatted privately with Jiang Qi was a photographer. This photographer was a new employee of Fang Jing's company and a professional photographer. Since the last team-building video went viral, Fang Jing felt that regularly releasing long videos with quality and content would be very helpful for the company's development and business negotiations, so he specially recruited several professional photographers.

After asking the same general questions as the editor, the photographer gave Jiang Qi a list of cost-effective items suitable for the current situation, and told Jiang Qi that he could contact him anytime if he had any questions or if he had any leftover braised food.

The last person to chat privately with Jiang Qi was Fang Jing.

Fang Jing ignored the behavior of his company's employees who blatantly slacked off during work hours. After all, he, the boss, was also slacking off.

Fang Jing came to discuss business with Jiang Qi.

Since the last team-building video, the Starlight Theme Park's business was booming for a while, but soon the business became bleak again because the amusement park itself was extremely inconsistent with the video and the content of the video was purely fictitious.

There were not many tourists during the entire National Day holiday, so it was only a matter of time before the amusement park closed down.

But it is obvious that the owner of the amusement park still wants to save this amusement park that is destined to go bankrupt, so the boss contacted Fang Jing and wanted to ask Fang Jing to make another video to revive the amusement park.

I don’t know how much the owner of the amusement park offered, but Fang Jing actually wanted to take the order, and he wanted to cooperate with Jiang Qi again.

Fang Jing wants to make a bigger and more realistic horror doll house live-action script-killing video. In order not to affect Jiang Qi's business, he will find a professional screenwriter to write a new script about the horror doll house to increase the number of players.

There is a haunted house in the amusement park, just redecorate it.

The price is ten times of the previous one, 20w.

Jiang Qi only needs to provide people and props.

Jiang Qi was stunned when he saw the news.

I've already rewritten the script, so why spend 200,000 yuan to hire him?

Fang Jing explained that he had previously contacted the customer service representative of the card game studio, Xiaoka, through WeChat, hoping to obtain the authorization, decoration and props for the horror doll house. Xiaoka asked him to find the store where he had purchased it.

Currently, the only store Fang Jing knows of that has bought this real-life copy is Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi: Didn’t Xiaoka tell you to stop talking and go away if you don’t want to buy the book?

He remembered Yan Huaiyou told him that Xiaoka's service attitude was very poor.

Fang Jing (monthly card expires on December 19): ...

That's right!

Jiang Qi sent a message to express his refusal, and tactfully stated that this business was not suitable for their store. Fang Jing might as well create a new IP himself. Anyway, the owner of the amusement park is rich, and if he gives all the 200,000 to the screenwriter, he should be able to write a new script of quite good quality.

Although the reward of 200,000 is really a lot and Jiang Qi really wants it, he cannot take this order.

The scary scenes in horror movies are all fake, but the Kumantong in their store are real.

In his own shop he can be said to be a mechanical prop, and he cannot be made to work anywhere else.

What a pity for his two hundred thousand!

"Oh, amusement park owners these days are really rich. I wish I could be as rich as him." Jiang Qi sighed.

This amusement park has been on the verge of bankruptcy for who knows how many years, but the owner is still willing to hold on and not go bankrupt. This can be said to be true love.

But why doesn’t the amusement park owner reinstall and upgrade the rides to improve the quality of the amusement park?

Maybe it’s because the reinstallation and upgrade requires too much money and the boss can’t afford it.

Old John silently walked past Jiang Qi and went to the dining table to pour water.

Jiang Qi began to add items to the shopping cart according to the list the photographer gave him. He had to buy this batch of equipment in two days. He had just paid the butcher for the meat yesterday (now the meat payment was paid every half a month), and he had no money in his account to buy it.

While adding items to the shopping cart, Beiru sent Jiang Qi a WeChat message.

Beiru: Boss, I have rehearsed the performance of "Red Tears" with Xingzi. Can we test it tonight? If possible, I will ask Chengzi to join us.

Bei Ru is not like Liu Lan who has a group of acquaintances on WeChat. She can gather the friends by herself without going through the customer service number.

Jiang Qi: Okay.

Bei Ru's WeChat message reminded Jiang Qi that he hadn't watched "Red Tears" yet.

He has been busy lately and has forgotten about the 110,000 yuan capital.

It's time to draw a new card!
