Since 1983

Zheng Xiaolong and Haiyan were very efficient. After a few days, the crew got the script.

Xu Fei looked at it, no wonder the efficiency was high, basically nothing changed, only the line of Xu Bangcheng was deleted. Perhaps due to cost considerations, it is a border town, deep mountains and dense forests, and dozens of people shoot suddenly, so the unit funds are limited.

So the plot went down. After Zhou Zhiming was released from prison, the house of the chief engineer of 941 factory was suddenly stolen, and the project suffered huge losses. Shi Jihong's report was done by her ex-boyfriend Lu Yuanchao. In fact, she had been instigated to become a spy.

Finally Lu Yuanchao was arrested by Zhou Zhiming.

There are several main characters in the play, including the male protagonist Zhou Zhiming, the female protagonist Shi Xiaomeng, and the female second Yan Jun. Yan Jun is Zhou Zhiming's colleague, and the three have emotional entanglements.

Important supporting roles include Zhou Zhiming's inmate Du Weidong, Shi Xiaomeng's sister Shi Jihong, Zhou Zhiming's leader Section Chief Duan and Deputy Director Gan.

After the script was finalized, Zheng Xiaolong called a meeting with the staff.

It was the first time Xu Fei met the director Lin Ruwei, an old lady who is not tall, with curly hair, soft voice and very bookish.

She was a movie actor at first, then directed movies, and now she is making TV dramas. She is a very remarkable senior.

"I've read the novel and studied the script. Personally, I think it's a bit bland, so I have an immature opinion."

Lin Ruwei was very humble, and said: "The rhythm of TV dramas is very important. At the beginning of the novel, Xu Bangcheng is arrested. I am very nervous, and readers like to watch it. Since this paragraph is deleted, it is equivalent to leaving a large blank space. I think the content of the script is unnecessary. Change, but in reverse order."

"order?"

Zheng Xiaolong thought for a while, his eyes lit up, "You mean to put Zhou Zhiming's imprisonment at the beginning?"

"Yes, this may be more attractive, I wonder if it is possible?"

"That's great, I'll contact Haiyan to make changes after the meeting."

"That troubles you."

Lin Ruwei nodded, and glanced around the room. There were only a dozen or so people in the production director, main camera, main lighting, recording, editing, art, and drama management. Even if they seek foreign aid, there are only more than twenty.

It's hard to think now, there are more than 20 people filming a TV series, and there are not enough people to buy preserved egg and chicken porridge for the big names, so it's on your head.

"The theme of "Plainclothes Police" is very good. It focuses on the life and spiritual world of an ordinary policeman. I hope that the style of the whole play will remain authentic and have a sense of the times in 1976. Especially the costumes and props should pay attention to the development of our current society. Soon, new things will emerge one after another, don’t put the current things in it, it will make people laugh.”

"director!"

Xu Fei raised his hand suddenly, Zheng Xiaolong introduced briefly, Lin Ruwei smiled and asked, "Xiao Xu, is there any question?"

"I want to ask, is Nanzhou City in the north or the south?"

Um?

Everyone was taken aback, Lin Ruwei was very interested, "What do you say in the north, and what do you say in the south?"

"In the novel, Xu Bangcheng is going to escort a team to enter the country. He is a spy of Wanwan, and he said it is the border, so he is unlikely to go to the north to enter the country. Nanzhou City should be within the scope of Fujian Province. But now put this line If it is deleted, the geographical coordinates are not clear, which will cause a great sense of ambiguity.

The north and the south have different cultures, customs, architecture, and even clothing. We need an approximate coordinate in order to create a sense of the times at that time. "

"..."

Feng Trousers stared at him with wide eyes, why is he out of line again? After the last visit, I prepared a lot of things. I thought it would be enough, but I was asked to solve the Olympiad directly.

Lin Ruwei thought very seriously, and said: "There is a passage in the script, Zhou Zhiming sent him to the brick factory to renovate, saying that there are three treasures in that place, flies, mosquitoes, and sticky feet. He also said that there was a yellow plum rain last year. Week is off.

Huang Meiyu is a southern saying, if the scene is set in the south, we have to go south. "

Don't go south!

Zheng Xiaolong looked sad, how much would it cost?

"Let's change it to the north. Choose a port city with a humid climate, which just corresponds to the wharf of the 941 factory. If it's a big deal, go to Jinmen."

"Well, that's fine too."

Lin Ruwei nodded, and looked at Xu Fei at the end, "It's very good that Xiao Xu can find this out. You are in charge of art, right? You will have to worry about it in the future."

With these words as a basis, Zheng Xiaolong followed up and said: "You should also pay more attention to the costumes and props, so as not to make mistakes."

"Director, it's just me and Brother Feng, I'm afraid there won't be enough people," Xu Fei said.

"I will second some of them after a while, and I will allocate them at that time."

"Then I will definitely complete the task!"

"..."

Everyone looked at each other, and suddenly thought in their hearts, this is equivalent to putting all the costumes and props in one group, and he is still in charge.

A newcomer can do this job, obviously the leader values ​​it very much.

Zhao Baogang was very envious over there, and Feng Pants was even more unpleasant. He came half a year earlier than Xu Fei, and he couldn't afford the qualifications, and his abilities were different.

South, north, north, south, why didn't my mother notice this when she was reading the script!

"In terms of actors, I want to emphasize."

Lin Ruwei continued, "First of all, Zhou Zhiming is in his twenties. The selection criteria must be young, strong, not sloppy, greasy, and look like a policeman in uniform.

Then there is Shi Xiaomeng, who dares to love and hate, if she is a sharp girl, it is best to have big eyes, and a little thicker eyebrows may make her feel better.

Shi Jihong had the temper of a cadre's child, and was eventually instigated against him. To be a little mature, there is a sense of savagery.

Du Weidong, this person is very important, petty theft, the prodigal son turned back, and unfortunately died in the end. His personality is very complicated, it is difficult to grasp, we must find an experienced actor..."

The choice of actors these days is not based on who has the best cards or who has traffic, it is purely to fit the role.

Lin Ruwei spoke one by one, in detail, and finally said: "Let me introduce to everyone, this is Lin Xuezhu, who has always cooperated with me in casting roles."

A woman stood up and said hello. Obviously, this is the direct line of the director. It's not that the old lady is playing tricks, but it's human nature, and everyone likes to use what they are familiar with.

And Zheng Xiaolong saw that the center of the first part "Four Generations Under One Roof" was for logistics, so this one can't be done, so he added:

"Casting is a big project. Anyone who wants a suitable actor can recommend it to me directly or to the director. Again, this drama is our common task. We need to work together and help each other."

"Okay, the meeting is over!"

…………

After the meeting, everyone started to get busy with their own thoughts.

Xu Fei was bored in the conference room for a long time, and walked to the steps of the TV station building to breathe. Outside was the third ring road under construction, further away was the second ring road, and further away was the faint city center.

He took a deep breath, refreshed himself coldly, rushed into his mind, and got excited.

Even if the state units are opened again, it will more or less depend on seniority. It is not easy for Zheng Xiaolong to give himself this position.

Hey, Xiongguan Road is really like iron, and now I am going to start from the beginning!

(Ah, my old waist...)
