Recruiting actors

  "Are you really sure about this?"

  "Aren't you considering it?"

  "Are you really sure about this?"

  Such a repetitive and persistent conversation, it was Ning Hao's words. Just now, he officially joined Ye Su Meng's crew, and then received a stunning message, the crew members have gathered!!!!!

  My god, I counted two people and there are indeed only two! The first thought that came to Ning Huan's mind was that Ye Su Mang had gone crazy and was going to drag him down with her!

  "Don't be surprised, two people can also make a movie." Ning Hao's constant Tang Seng chanting, Ye Su Mang said with a matter-of-fact expression: "And I didn't say it was just the two of us, I think we might still need a sound engineer, after all, synchronized recording is still a troublesome thing."

  "Don't we need to coordinate and manage the scene anymore? And shouldn't movies still require art design, editing, and music composition? What about these things, are we not making a DV work?" Ning Hao sighed helplessly and continued to persuade: "Old brother, in this regard, you'd better not be stingy, let's build a more complete crew, so that we can film with peace of mind."

  However, Ning Hao's earnest persuasion apparently did not achieve its purpose. Ye Su Mang still insisted on her own views but analyzed her thoughts for Ning Hao.

  "You're not skilled in art, can you be responsible for art design and photography? And I'll take care of directing, post-production editing and music composition. As for overall planning and scene preparation, there's no need to spend money on it, after all, the budget is limited, I can handle it myself. Since this film only has one scene, we can just set up the backdrop ourselves. As for some animation effects and props, we can wait until filming is done and then spend money to find a special effects company to do it."

  "Do you still understand music composition?" Upon hearing Ye Su Mang's words, Ning Huan widened his eyes in shock, hardly daring to believe.

  "At least paying for this movie shouldn't be a problem." Ye Sumang replied confidently, his mind full of musical knowledge that covered everything, even if he hadn't fully grasped it yet, but at least it was enough for this low-budget film.

  A good director must also be a skilled editor, which Ning Hao understands. However, the director surprisingly also knows how to score music, and Ye Su Meng's versatility has made Ning Hao look at him sideways for the first time.

  "Alright! I'll go crazy with you this once!" Looking at Ye Su Mang, however, Ning Huan didn't seem to be joking. He gritted his teeth and finally compromised.

  By noon, Huang Bo's exam was also over. Looking at him coming out of the examination room, humming a little tune all the way, he seemed to be in a good mood.

  "Old Huang, let me introduce you, this is Ning Hao, our team's chief photographer." Ye Sumang smiled and pulled Ning Hao over to introduce him to Huang Bo, then pointed at Huang Bo and said to Ning Hao: "His name is Huang Bo, but just call him Old Huang, he's one of the important actors in our movie."

  The two of them exchanged greetings and then simultaneously turned their attention to Ye Sumang.

  "Cough, here I want to announce something important, that is our movie will officially start shooting, everyone applaud." Ye Sumang said with great enthusiasm, but found that the two people in front of him had an expression as if they didn't know him, suddenly feeling very embarrassed.

  "I say, Yezi, can't we not talk about this in the big courtyard? Look at all those people staring, it's really embarrassing..." Seeing Ye Su Mang's dissatisfied gaze staring over, Huang Bo secretly pulled his sleeve and whispered a suggestion, while Ning Huan on the side also nodded repeatedly.

  "Uh... okay, let's go to the teahouse and talk about it later." Ye Sumang also felt that many students around him were looking at him with eyes as if they were looking at a madman, and his face turned red too, knowing that he had just lost control because of his overly excited mood.

  After Huang Bo joined, Ye Su Mang's small team already had three people. In the next few days, they temporarily recruited a sound engineer named Li Ping at the film factory under Ye Xian's introduction, which was considered to be the final piece of the entire team. Immediately after that, the three of them finally found their own shooting location and began to set up the scenes in the script.

  This filming location belongs to Kyoto Film Studio.

  Because in this country of Huaxia where everything requires a certificate, making movies also requires a permit. Fortunately, Ye Sumang had the help of his maternal grandfather Ye Xian, which allowed their crew to temporarily hang under the banner of Kyoto Film Studio and borrow its name. The condition from the film studio was that all equipment, film stock, location and other expenses for Ye Sumang's movie would have to be rented from Kyoto Film Studio.

  Although the equipment in the film factory was one or two percent more expensive than outside stores, he still willingly paid for it to ensure a smooth shoot.

  The Kyoto Film Studio also gave Ye Sumang a lot of face, specially finding a good filming location for them. A brick house with an area of over 100 square meters. Moreover, this place was originally a small supermarket, but it went bankrupt because of its poor location. The equipment inside is still quite complete, including the cash register and shelves. This saved Ye Sumang from spending a lot of money to buy new products. Now they only need to fill the goods and transform the interior into a rest room according to the script, and everything will be OK.

  "Ah, I'm exhausted. Let me rest for a bit and have a drink of water." After finishing the last shelf, Huang Bo wiped the sweat from his forehead and sat down on the ground without caring if it was dirty or not.

  Ye Sumang was also exhausted, but he couldn't rest yet. He had to calculate the expenses for the past few days and plan every single cent carefully. Moreover, he still had to make some tables because tomorrow was the day when the drama crew would start recruiting actors, and he had to be well-prepared.

  "Take a break, Yezi. Things can't be finished in one breath." Huang Bo couldn't bear to see Ye Sumang still busy.

  "Alright." Ye Sumang put down his work and didn't persist because he was indeed very tired.

  At this time, he found that Ning Hao was holding a camera in his hand and walked over with two bottles of water.

  "Are you in love?" Ye Sumang sat down beside Ning Hao and asked jokingly.

  Ning Hao also came to his senses after being said by Ye Su Mang, and with a happy look in his eyes, he said: "I like the feeling of touching the camera, Yezi, this is really great!"

  "Haha, don't worry, it will always be in your hands, letting you touch it until you don't want to touch it anymore." Ye Sumang heard Ning Hao's answer and burst out laughing.

  "What's going to happen to the film studio? I'll never let it go for the rest of my life." Ning Hao also burst out laughing, laughing very happily and joyfully.

  "What are you talking about? So happy." Huang Bo was originally preparing to rest with his eyes closed, but heard Ye Sumang and Ning Hao burst out laughing.

  "Of course I'm happy for the movie to start shooting." Ye Sumang replied.

  "That's right. Come on, let's high-five each other." Huang Bo walked over with a smile, first extending his hand, followed by Ning Huan, and finally Ye Su's slender white hand covered theirs, the three of them shouting "Go for it!" as they raised their hands to the sky.

  It's probably that no one could have predicted that this cooperation would be the starting point of a storm sweeping the world film industry in the future.

  The next morning, Ye Sumang brought Huang Bo and Ning Huan to the entrance of Beiyin Factory. Several people moved two large tables over and set up a recruitment sign for actors on the side. A temporary recruitment venue was thus established, and all they had to do now was wait for suitable actors to appear.

  I didn't expect that after finishing typing, it was already 0:51, I'm so tired, and I also need to go to sleep. Recently, there's a lot of material that needs to be looked up, and I found out that filming a movie is really not easy.
