Chapter 146: Melon 8000 Nutrient Solution Plus
Shen Que was going to shoot a night show, but Xu Qingye didn't go with him. He stayed in the hotel and took out his notebook from his suitcase and started looking through it.
The notebook records some gossip and celebrities from the original work that he remembered. Most of the content matches, with only a small part having some deviations due to changes in the timeline.
Xu Qingye looked at the timeline, searching for possible recent events.
Most of the gossips in my memory are about love affairs, and the more extreme ones are just about dating seven or eight men and women at the same time.
In addition, there are several legal figures who indulge in drinking, whoring and gambling. The problem is that these people are not big names, and even if they are exposed, they don’t seem to be eye-catching enough. The only one who has some popularity is just a second-tier actor.
Xu Qingye was thinking about his new year's work plan and turned to the front again.
In front of it was a list of actors to be popular that he had written himself. Some of them had already made their mark, while some had not yet. The first name he wrote down was Chen Que. Now, in just over three years, Shen Que's development was faster than he had expected.
Xu Qingye picked up a pen and wrote an S+ after Shen Que's name.
The names below Shen Que have not been encountered yet. They were originally supposed to be Shen Que's co-actors, but now that the timeline has been advanced, these people have not appeared yet.
In the original novel, Shen Que's award-winning film "Song of Time" employed many newcomers. At the beginning, almost no one was optimistic about the film, thinking that the director was too risky and letting a group of newcomers carry the box office was no different from throwing money away.
In the end, the film's revenue was not ideal, but it did make a small profit. More importantly, it won a foreign film award, adding a highlight to the director's resume.
Several actors from "Song of Years" have developed smoothly and become leaders of the younger generation. As the male lead, Shen Que has also established his position in the film industry.
According to the schedule, the auditions for "Song of Time" should begin next year, but I don't know if Shen Que, who has achieved such great success, can still be the director's choice.
Xu Qingye's thoughts flew far away when the phone rang, interrupting his thoughts. Xu Qingye put the notebook aside, walked to the window and answered the phone.
The call was from Dai Qingyue. Dai Qingyue recently went back to Country M to deal with some things. He called Xu Qingye as soon as he came back.
"Uncle Dai."
Xu Qingye shouted, and Dai Qingyue on the other end seemed to be in a very happy mood. He immediately responded when he heard Xu Qingye calling him.
"Are you busy? Did I disturb you?"
"I'm not busy. I don't want to go out. I'm staying in the hotel. Chen Que has a big night shoot tonight and I don't know what time he'll be back."
Xu Qingye looked at the time. It was only three o'clock in the afternoon, so he could still take a nap.
"I recently bought back the old house I had sold before, renovated it, and plan to move in soon. I'd like to invite you to stay with me. I'm a good friend here."
The Dai family had a problem before and sold almost all of their domestic industries. After recovering in recent years, they are thinking about developing in the domestic market again.
What Dai Qingyue longed for most was the old house where he grew up. After haggling with the other party for a long time, the other party finally agreed to sell it. As soon as the formalities were completed, he couldn't wait to move back.
"Congratulations, Uncle Dai. I will definitely be your visit then."
Xu Qingye congratulated him. Dai Qingyue had mentioned some family matters to him before, so he understood the significance of this old house to Dai Qingyue.
"Oh, by the way, I'm going to take you to an exhibition later. Send me the address and I'll pick you up."
"Okay, please, Uncle Dai. By the way, the crew asked me to shoot a set of promotional photos. I've roughly made a plan. Could you give me some advice? This is my first time taking on such a formal and commercial shoot, so I'm actually quite nervous."
Xu Qingye accepted the work of the crew, but filming has not started yet. Although the crew is interested in his popularity and popularity, the photos he takes cannot be too bad. At least they have to be at the level of the two groups that are filming now.
Moreover, promotional photos are different from portraits. He wants to take photos that are more story-telling.
Xu Qingye hung up the phone and sent the plan he made to Dai Qingyue. The two talked about the plan for more than an hour, and Xu Qingye revised it many times.
Dai Qingyue's suggestions are very professional and pertinent. Dai Qingyue's photos follow a commercial model. He never claims that he is an artist. He just uses his hobby to make money.
He had another meeting with Yi He in the afternoon. Yi He felt that love stories were actually the most popular, and Xu Qingye didn't need to feel bored at all. If he could dig up the love stories of a few popular young actors and actresses, it would definitely become the hottest topic in the new year.
Xu Qingye flipped through the book and found a story about cheating in love and polyamory. The male lead was an idol who debuted through a talent show. He had some hit dramas recently and had quite a lot of traffic, so he chose him.
Xu Qingye looked at the time and decided to take a few days to wait for some news. His timeline was a little messy, but as long as one finds the right one, there will always be opportunities. After all, people's personalities will not change. Maybe the love affair he filmed was not the one mentioned in the original book, but there will always be a love affair.
After working for an afternoon, Xu Qingye printed out the plan and went back to the crew.
The salary negotiated with the crew was 100,000 yuan, so Xu Qingye took this job very seriously. The person in charge was stunned when he took over the plan.
He thought Xu Qingye just needed to find someone to take a photo with during his free time, just like he did with Chen Que and Chen Qing.
As a result, Xu Qingye prepared the plan very carefully, which made them feel a little embarrassed.
"Mr. Ono, why are you making it so formal?"
The person in charge didn't know much about it, but he could still see something from looking at a dozen plans. He quickly contacted the crew's photography teacher to come over.
The story of "Strange Cases" takes place in the martial arts world, but the characters are also involved in the court, so Xu Qingye wants to show the contradiction and integration of the two. He wants to film the strangeness of the martial arts world and the turmoil of the court, so he needs the cooperation of the actors.
Although he could just shoot casually, Xu Qingye wanted to be responsible for his work.
The photographer came over and talked with Xu Qingye, and they basically finalized the plan. They originally thought it would be a casual shoot, as long as they found time when the actors were free, but now it has become very formal, and they have to issue a notice and set aside a day.
The staff arranged a time to go after receiving the notice, and the person in charge's attitude towards Xu Qingye also changed.
He had not taken Xu Qingye seriously before, thinking that he was just a publicity stuntman who acted recklessly because he was Chen Que's friend. Now it seems that it is hard to say who is taking advantage of whom. Xu Qingye has taken many popular photos of Chen Que, and he is also good at creating topics. The "Photos He Takes" series is a very hot topic. Maybe it was not intentional, but it became popular.
Some people have thought about copying this success, but unfortunately they have all failed.
"Mr. Ono, have you ever considered filming other people? Mr. Shen is actually already very famous, you can also give other artists some opportunities."
The person in charge looked at Xu Qingye and suddenly started talking about something else.
"Are you talking about opening a website for other artists? That's also possible. You might know about it if I tell you. I personally run several websites."
Xu Qingye took on quite a few orders, which he later handed over to other people in the company, but he managed the early clients himself.
Xu Qingye randomly reported two IDs, and the person in charge indeed showed a somewhat surprised expression.
"I mean, is it possible that the account "Genueye" is following other people? Several other accounts are also quite popular, but the most popular one is still the ID "Genueye."
"From the question you asked, it's clear you don't understand fandom at all. You have to change your ID to climb the ladder. All the popularity and followers of this ID are based on my sincerity. If I stop following, I can only quit the circle with a black avatar or stop updating. If I use this account to support others, it will only backfire."
Xu Qingye smiled politely. Many people still don’t know enough about fan circles. The most important thing in fan circles is loyalty. Moreover, fan circles have their own ecological environment and cannot arbitrarily change some established rules.
"I can occasionally take pictures of other people, like I am doing now, but my account can only post pictures of Shen Que. This is my persona, and I cannot change it. My persona is Shen Que's family, friends, and die-hard fans."
Xu Qingye gave a brief explanation, and the other party seemed a little regretful, so Xu Qingye simply handed him a business card.
"If you need a professional fangirl, you can contact me. We are very professional in this area."
"Okay, then I won't bother Mr. Ono anymore."
The person in charge took the business card and smiled at Xu Qingye. Their company also has some artists signed. He was thinking about how to promote his own artists and originally wanted to take advantage of their popularity, but now it seems that it is not so easy.
When Xu Qingye came out, Shen Que was filming a fight scene. Shen Que was hanging on the wire, with a fierce momentum. His movements were powerful and not fancy. The fight scene was coherent and smooth.
The director shouted "Cut" and Chen Que was let down. Hanging on a wire is not a comfortable thing. As soon as Chen Que landed, he greeted the opponent actor. In order to pursue realism, he really hit the opponent a few times. Although he used less force, he was afraid of hurting the opponent.
Acting opposite Shen Que is a child star named Wang Zijia, who is only fourteen years old this year, but one can already see how handsome he will be in the future. The child star's fighting scenes are equally exciting, and he fights back and forth with Shen Que without being at all inferior.
"I'm fine, but don't forget your promise to help me with my homework. I'll come see you tomorrow."
Wang Zijia heard that Chen Que was a graduate of A University, so as soon as he joined the crew, he kept pestering him with questions, mainly about study. Filming and studying sometimes conflicted with each other. Although he mainly focused on studying, he would inevitably have to ask for leave sometimes, so he would always fall behind in his studies.
Chen Que is a very patient person and is always calm when tutoring him. Wang Zijia likes him very much and usually shares some snacks with him. The two of them have become friends.
"I can help with homework, too. I also graduated from University A, and I'm his senior. I'll teach you tomorrow."
Hearing that he was asked to help with homework, Xu Qingye immediately volunteered. Shen Que was already very tired from filming and had to rest more when he had free time. How could he worry about his children's homework?
"Really?"
Wang Zijia glanced at Xu Qingye suspiciously. Xu Qingye usually seemed lazy on the set, either lying down or drinking milk tea and eating snacks. He really didn't have the temperament of a top student at University A.
"Really, I can definitely understand a junior high school student's homework." Xu Qingye patted his chest confidently. Even if he hadn't studied for a long time, he couldn't fail to understand the junior high school questions.
