Chapter 155 Joining the crew for filming, a dark and windy night for eating melons, killing through the cooling-off period!
The weather in August is sunny.
In the dimly lit room, He Hui, played by Jinli, discusses issues with everyone.
Xu Wenwen plays "Tong Guijuan", who is also an outstanding female physicist.
This scene shows the quarrel between He Hui and Tong Guijuan.
"The organization has assigned us a task. We have to develop a hydrogen bomb within two years. According to the data in the materials, there may be some problems with one set of data. We have to speed up and re-test it." He Hui said with a firm look.
Tong Guijuan stood up and denied it, "Team leader, I think this goal is difficult to achieve. Normally, it takes us one or two years to do a physics experiment. The organization requires us to create it from scratch within two years. This is very difficult!"
He Hui said in a deep voice: "I know this is difficult, but I believe we can do it, it will just be a bit harder."
She looked down at a document and saw a string of data circled.
She held a meeting with several physicists, and based on their experience, everyone felt that there was something wrong with the data.
Must be retested!
Otherwise, if they work according to the data and it is wrong, they will waste more time.
He Hui thought for a while and said, "How about this? We will split into two groups. One group will do the experiment during the day, and the other group will continue at night. We will try to get the data within two months."
Tong Guijuan frowned and said, "Team Leader, the problem with the experimental equipment..."
He Hui said in a sonorous voice: "Borrow it from someone! I will talk to Mr. Ma in person!"
"Card!"
After the filming of this scene was finished, Director Zhong looked at the scenes in the movie and called Jinli and Xu Wenwen over to let them see their performance in the camera.
This kind of picture is the most original shot without any editing.
Zhong Daowen asked: "What did you see?"
Jinli pondered and said, "Am I speaking a little too hastily?"
Director Zhong said: "Yes, Xu Wenwen performed well in this scene. The character she played, Tong Guijuan, is impatient. When she gets impatient, you also get impatient, which is wrong.
He Hui is calm and composed, very observant and determined. Tong Guijuan can be impatient, but He Hui cannot be impatient. You need to temper your tone of voice, not be frivolous, but be more steady. "
Jinli nodded thoughtfully.
When she first started acting, she had already found some feeling.
Xu Wenwen was secretly delighted that Director Zhong did not find any problems with her filming.
Compared with Jinli, her acting skills are much better than Jinli!
After a few minutes' break, the scene was reshot.
Jinli's performance seemed to have not changed at all, but also seemed to have changed a little. Xu Wenwen didn't feel anything, but Director Zhong, who was in charge of the camera, noticed it and filmed it.
"Stuck, passed!"
Jinli took the script and glanced at the next scene, which was the scene of the experiment.
The break was only 5 minutes. She thought for a while, took out a physics workbook from her bag, and quickly started solving the big questions.
She felt that she could find her state in this way.
After five minutes, a script supervisor called her to start filming, but Director Zhong suddenly stopped her.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, I'll take a few shots."
This shot lasted for ten minutes, and it ended only when Jinli finished the question and looked around blankly.
Director Zhong called Jinli over and asked her to watch her performance on camera.
“You don’t have much experience in filming, and you don’t know how to show your best self in front of the camera.
Mature actors can adjust their acting expressions according to the camera.
Remember this shot and do experiments later. This is the calm state I want. Don’t be impatient and be steady.
Physics is to you like your hands and feet. Do you have trouble with your left and right hands? "
Jinli shook her head, "No."
Director Zhong: "That's right. This is the instinct that is engraved in your bones. This is not acting, but recreating your daily life. You should regard doing experiments as learning."
At this point, Director Zhong couldn't help but smile, "Although I know that the college entrance examination won't have such difficult questions."
Jinli also smiled shyly.
The experiment that Director Zhong mentioned is not an ordinary small experiment, but a hydrogen bomb experiment!
If she had not been trained in advance on these experimental equipment, she would be at a loss.
Of course, what is being filmed now is the early stages of the experiment, and the experimental equipment is not that scary. They just need to calculate a lot of data.
After adjusting her state, Jinli recalled the feeling when she was doing the questions just now, and began to calculate in front of the camera.
Push the instrument open, load the film, adjust the magnification and pressure...
Director Zhong zoomed in on the scene from far to near, and finally stopped at Jinli's eyes.
The reason why he chose Jinli to play He Hui was because he was attracted by her eyes.
There was a gleam of thirst for knowledge in her eyes.
He discovered this trait when filming the public welfare film, so he went against the majority opinion and gave the role of He Hui to Jinli.
If a veteran actor were to play He Hui, he would certainly be able to perform well, but his performance would be mediocre and without any distinctive features.
Some characters are so eye-catching that they can only be performed by suitable actors.
Jinli is very suitable.
Xu Wenwen sat aside watching the show, holding a small fan in her hand and looking down at the script from time to time.
She will also have an experimental scene later, but it will be a group scene, so there won’t be a close-up of her alone.
Her assistant came over, glanced at Jinli, then lowered her head and whispered, "Sister Wenwen, I feel like the filming is very ordinary, not as good as your acting."
Xu Wenwen didn't even look at her, and said slowly: "It's just a scene in a laboratory, and there are no strong emotions, how can you tell."
The assistant immediately said: "You can't tell it in a single shot, but as long as there are other actors, you can tell it immediately, the contrast is very obvious.
I saw you talking to her before, and whether it was your demeanor or your dialogue skills, you completely crushed Jinli!"
The corners of Xu Wenwen's mouth rose slightly.
But she was also afraid of being seen, so she immediately pulled the corners of her mouth down and said calmly: "You should say less, it would be bad if someone heard it."
The assistant quickly flattered him: "Of course, I said that because there were no talented people around. If there were people, I wouldn't have mentioned it."
"Cut! This scene is over!"
Director Zhong's voice came from not far away. Xu Wenwen handed the script to her assistant, raised her head slightly and said, "Please keep it for me. I'll see how I perform later."
The assistant immediately said, "Come on, Sister Wenwen, you are definitely the best and most outstanding one among them!"
……
Jinli filmed three scenes on the first day of filming, which was a pretty good progress.
If we continue at this pace, the film can be completed in two months.
It only takes two months to make a movie now, which seems very short, but it is actually not short.
You know, it only takes two months to shoot a TV series on an assembly line basis.
With the help of technology, the speed of both post-production editing and on-site shooting has been greatly improved.
Many times, the crew took care of the actors and didn't put too much pressure on them.
Otherwise, if it was a veteran actor who cooperated well with the crew and was very committed to the role, a movie could be finished in two or three days.
This is not a joke, the efficiency can really be that high.
Therefore, investors prefer to invest in movies, which are shot quickly, require a smaller production team, and are less troublesome than investing in TV series.
Take the production team for example. A movie only needs a few dozen people, and for a simpler one, a dozen people can do it.
But it takes hundreds of people to shoot a TV series.
This is the bottom line.
After dinner, Jinli returned to the dormitory and turned on her phone. She was afraid of being distracted during filming, so she simply turned off her phone and read books when she had free time. Sui Lingfang sent her a message, asking her to call her after filming, as well as other people's messages, but Jinli ignored them and called Sister Fang first.
The call was picked up within a few seconds.
Sui Lingfang asked quickly: "Are you going to film later?"
"No need to shoot. We will only shoot some night scenes in the second half of the month. The first half of the month will be all daytime shooting." Jinli replied.
"Okay, open your blog now and see if you want to post a new commercial for Domi Makeup."
Jinli was slightly stunned, "What happened?"
Sui Lingfang said helplessly: "If I'm not mistaken, your blog has been restricted!"
"Current limit?" Jinli was surprised, "What is this?"
Sui Lingfang: “It is a method used by the blog operation platform, which should be set automatically by the program. It will give each account a period of exposure, followed by a cooling-off period.
During the cooling-off period, even if your followers follow your account, they may not necessarily see your blog posts. We need to buy traffic manually to push your blog posts to the browsing pool of your fans and netizens. "
Jinli was silent for a moment, "Excuse me, but why do we need fans to pay attention to us?"
Sui Lingfang smiled and said: "Fans can clearly know the star's data through their followers, and the platform's cooling-off period does not mean that no amount will be given, but just a little less.
This difference is like if you normally post a blog and it gets 999+ comments within an hour, but today’s blog only got 600+ comments in five hours, and all of these + comments were contributed by fans.”
Jinli asked: "Then can I avoid the cooling-off period by re-posting a blog?"
Sui Lingfang: "It's not necessarily possible to dodge it. I searched online for other people's methods and posted a dozen blog posts. As long as one of them is not cooled down, I will win."
Jinli frowned: "But for a celebrity, posting more than a dozen posts on a business blog is too embarrassing."
Sui Lingfang agreed and said, "Yes, so I think it's enough to just post one and see what happens. Besides, this matter is also related to Domi Makeup."
She changed the subject and said, "They didn't do any promotion. They said they wanted to see your ability to bring goods. It's like you are wearing a bracelet on your hand.
But only a few people know about this bracelet, and many people can’t see it. How can we publicize it and promote it when others can’t even see it?”
Sui Lingfang said angrily: "When it comes to promotion and publicity, Domi Makeup is a complete layman.
If it hadn't previously looked for celebrities to be its spokespeople, once word of this practice got out, which celebrity would be willing to endorse its product?
If you hadn't already signed a contract with Domi, I would have called a halt to their attempt to take advantage of you."
Jinli smiled, her sweet voice like a burst of cool spring water, and she said slowly, "It's okay, just be more careful next time.
If they want us to help promote the product next time, we should make the terms of cooperation clear. Otherwise, if we encounter a cooling-off period, we will have to pay for traffic, which is not cost-effective. "
If Domi Makeup is a layman, then Chenxi Entertainment is not necessarily much better.
The people who negotiated the contract were professional and made it very clear without any ambiguous words.
But although I am a professional, I don’t understand the entertainment industry.
It is not within the scope of the obligations stipulated, and there is no clear requirement for Domi Cosmetics to promote the product.
Regardless of whether Domi Makeup did it intentionally or unintentionally, Jinli had to bear the consequences.
Fortunately, she also participated in the sales profit of Koi Thumb Powder Puff.
The more goods she sold, the more dividends she would get.
Jinli thought for a while and said, "I won't send it again this time. I'll ask my sisters for help."
Sui Lingfang is a smart person and immediately understood what Jinli was going to do.
She asked hesitantly, "Will this cause some trouble to the other members of Pink Girls? Although some of them are no longer top-tier, each of their businesses is still very valuable."
Although her popularity is not first-tier, all merchants who approach Pink Girl for promotion quote prices based on first-tier prices.
This is about popularity.
Some stars are not popular, but once you mention them, many people know them.
Some celebrities seem to be very popular, but once you mention them, many people will probably ask: Who is that?
Jinli said: "It's not a problem. If it were me, I would help too. Don't worry."
Sister Fang still underestimated the bond between the members of the girl group.
When friends do this, they are not family members, but they are better than family members.
After hanging up the call with Sister Fang, Jinli pulled out the pink girl group.
She didn't bother to be polite and started knocking directly.
Koi: [Gather together, I need your help with something. Come if you are free, don’t worry if you are not.]
Task: Please help forward my latest blog post, which is the one promoting Domi Cosmetics. This business blog has entered a cooling-off period, and many of my fans have not seen it. I want to break through in other ways.
Reward: A full set of Domi Cosmetics Koi Good Luck Series cosmetics, a box of special edition Koi powder puffs]
Not long after this WeChat message was sent, someone started chatting.
Qinglian: [(Eating melon) Cooling-off period, I understand, my account also often encounters cooling-off period, but business blogs will have brand promotion, so that netizens know that I just need to put my name on it, didn’t Domi promote you?]
Qi Guan Mingzhu: [I have been reading gossip all day today, and I almost live in blogs. I follow you, but I have never seen this new blog you posted]
NANA: [I forwarded it, what is the special edition Koi powder puff (fingers crossed)]
Koi: [Clang clang clang, you will get a colorful Koi thumb puff, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple (picture.jpg)
This is a gift produced specifically for me by Domi Cosmetics. Only a few small boxes were produced. It will be launched only if the thumb puffs sell well in the future.
If the sales are average, then the ones I have will be out of print! ]
The teammates were very interested in the special edition Koi Thumb Powder Puff, and Ji Qinglian even said:
[Please ship it to me as soon as possible. I want to post pictures. I like this kind of thing that is not available on the market!]
Koi: [We are in the mountains, so express delivery is inconvenient!]
Qinglian: [So you want to send it or not (knife x3)]
Koi: [Dongfeng Express, mission accomplished, I will send you Dongfeng tomorrow!]
As they chatted, teammates reposted the messages on their blogs, each of them keeping their words brief and to the point.
Ji Qinglian: [Help@Jinli: Domi Makeup…]
Yu Lina: [Break through the cooling-off period @Jinli…]
Qi Guan Mingzhu: [I heard that a certain little fool doesn’t even know how to promote @Jinli…]
Except for Xi Mengze and Gong Zitong who were busy with other things, everyone else forwarded the message.
Jinli's blog has encountered a cooling-off period, but it does not mean that other Pink Girls members have encountered it. As long as one person's account is in normal status, then——
Became an internet sensation!
Nine o'clock in the evening is the time for netizens to hunt.
They observe silently in secret, wait for their chance, locate their prey, suddenly jump and pounce, and use all their tens of thousands of tons of strength to pin the prey down under them.
Simply and elegantly hunting the civet caterpillars in the melon field.
Among them, the Koi Thumb Powder Puff endorsed by Jinli was also trampled under their feet.
[This powder puff is so cute (*▽*)]
[? ? I have been wandering around in the melon field for a long time today, why didn’t I see this blog post by Jinli? ]
[I didn’t receive this news at all. As a fan of Pink Girl, I’m very surprised!]
[hahaha hope Jinli, this big fool, will do this every time~ and let the other members of Pink Girls follow and interact! ]
After a while, two hot searches came out.
#Jinli is a fool who doesn't understand publicity#
#The whole group of Pink Girls helps Jinli promote#
Neither of the two trending searches made it into the top ten. Unless the traffic is huge, it will be difficult to compete with those celebrities who buy traffic.
But as long as it is on the hot search list and has some exposure, it is enough to offset the impact of the cooling-off period.
Domi Makeup Headquarters.
Mr. Nan was still unaware of the ups and downs on the blog and was staring blankly at the online sales data.
From the time I posted the blog at noon to now, the sales figures of the Koi Thumb Puff in major online flagship stores have come out.
A total of 5000 pieces were sold!
Compared with Jinli's fame, this sales data is indeed very poor.
Mr. Nan originally thought that he didn’t expect a margin call, but at least he should have no problem promoting the sale of 10,000 coins that day.
After the promotion, sales will definitely be the highest on the first day, and will gradually decrease afterwards.
But now seeing this data, he just felt that all the promises he had made to the president before could not be fulfilled, and he had been slapped in the face!
Could it be that, as those old stubborn people on the board of directors said, Domi Cosmetics should not hire celebrities to endorse its products? Chinese products rely on reputation, not empty gimmicks.
"So, I made a wrong move?" President Nan also began to lose confidence.
Suddenly, a phone call came in from the director in charge of online sales.
President Nan got a headache when he saw his name. This director didn't achieve much, but he was good at shirking responsibility.
In the end, President Nan answered the call.
I originally thought that he was coming to me to continue to push the responsibility and pass the buck to the operations department, but I didn't expect him to get so excited that his voice broke.
"Boss Nan, good news! The warehouse is full! All the Koi Thumb Puffs are sold out! Is there any more? Hurry up and ask the factory to start producing them overnight!"
President Nan's mind went blank for a moment.
He held the phone tightly, and after a long while he replied: "Liquidation? You said that Koi Thumb Powder Puff was liquidated? Could the data be wrong? Didn't it only sell 5000 pieces?"
"This is all the fault of the operations department. They didn't expect Jinli's blog account to enter a cooling-off period. That blog post was not seen by anyone. Tonight she called on the rest of the Pink Girls to promote it..."
Yueyue, food, hungry
