Chapter 770 Team Building
After the questions focused on "The Princess" and the trainees, they also briefly touched on topics related to the development of the label's business.
"For now, we still want to develop the existing artists, including trainees, that the label already has."
"For example, the trainees are mainly working hard to debut, and Lu Qing is also preparing for his next album. After he has done a good job in his existing career step by step, he will consider further expanding and strengthening it."
When Jiang Yuan answered the questions, he revealed quite a lot of information.
By the way, he also brought out the new album that Lu Qing was working on. According to the production progress that Jiang Yuan knew, this should be the first album that the label will produce next.
However, Jiang Yuan only mentioned this and did not elaborate further.
After all, it is Lu Qing's own album, and the promotion part still depends more on Lu Qing himself.
Q: "Regarding Omega and your own identity as an actor, will there be any plans to collaborate with them in the future?"
Although Jiang Yuan has revealed Omega's pseudonym, the film and television works currently produced have no direct connection with the published works.
This issue was mentioned in the interview, obviously because of the explanation Jiang Yuan made at the final press conference of "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes".
This was the only question asked in this interview, but in the interviewer's opinion, Jiang Yuan's answer should not be too confusing.
Regarding this question, Jiang Yuan paused for a moment and nodded, "In fact, the next project that will be launched soon is such a linkage, which can be regarded as a new attempt."
What Jiang Yuan took the initiative to reveal was actually "Love Letter", which has officially entered the preparation stage.
However, although Jiang Yuan did not explicitly state it, there are quite a few Omega works.
So even if we tell you, people may not be able to correctly associate which one is going to be adapted.
Q: "Are you preparing to perform yourself?"
Regarding the previous question, the interviewer asked a follow-up question with concern.
In response to this question, Jiang Yuan nodded naturally and admitted it. There was nothing to hide.
At this point, Jiang Yuan's magazine interview has entered its final stage. Until the end, the questions asked were all about daily life, and Jiang Yuan answered them one by one based on his recent living habits.
The interview went smoothly and the questions raised were basically within Jiang Yuan's acceptable range.
At the same time, through the interview, we also shared and carried out some publicity.
The person who was responsible for interviewing Jiang Yuan also showed a smile after the interview.
It is vaguely foreseeable that this will be another interview that will receive a lot of attention.
From the answers to some of the questions that Jiang Yuan has already answered, we can see that when the interview is officially launched, it will be first-hand information that will spark discussion.
Jiang Yuan finished his work on the magazine cover and left work in a good mood.
After get off work, the car drove towards Xingyuan Entertainment. It happened that Lu Qing had a recording job that day. As one of the nominal producers, Jiang Yuan naturally planned to go to the scene to take a look at the situation when he was free.
"The people introduced by He Jing have already arranged a meeting time in the last two days." Zhang Qing reported to Jiang Yuan in the nanny car.
After the filming of "Detective Chinatown" was completed, He Jing did not forget Jiang Yuan's previous request. He did introduce a group of fairly excellent crew members and just arranged a time to discuss and confirm the related work of "Love Letter".
Jiang Yuan nodded, and then asked, "Did you ask me to find a director who is good at this kind of style of filming?"
After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Yuan felt that he could try to be a director.
However, after learning more about it, I still find it difficult to handle some of the tedious work, so I want to find a more experienced director to serve as the producer, deputy director or something like that.
This was also the trick that He Jing had given to Jiang Yuanzhi during their previous conversation. He had obviously seen through Jiang Yuan's desire to still be a hands-off boss.
However, this time He Jing did not help to introduce him, saying that if Jiang Yuan could contact them himself, no one would refuse.
After all, as far as He Jing knew, after he and Jiang Yuan collaborated on several works, there were too many people in the industry who wanted to cooperate with Jiang Yuan.
Of course, it is undeniable that the success of previous works played a big role, so He Jing finally told Jiang Yuan to carefully select the candidates, and if it really doesn't work out, he can help with the review.
"I asked the studio staff to come up with some ideas, and then made a list. After screening, there were two or three good candidates."
As Zhang Qing spoke, he began to look through the prepared materials on his tablet.
After a while, the tablet was stuffed into Jiang Yuan's hands.
Looking at the information displayed on the tablet screen, Jiang Yuan also began to study it.
Zhang Qing stood by and occasionally added a comment or two, "This one, Fu Yunshen, is considered a new director."
"In the early years, I shot several youth films with a more aesthetic style. Although the reputation was not very good, everyone generally praised Fu Yunshen's works. Putting aside the plot, they are still quite good."
Following Zhang Qing's explanation, Jiang Yuanshi nodded as he read the information, then asked curiously, "What about the recent period?"
"It seems that after suffering a setback in his early years, Fu Yunshen has not made many movies in recent years, and has mainly focused on commercials and music videos."
“However, I made a comeback last year and directed a movie. Although it didn’t achieve much, it won an international award and came back into everyone’s attention,” Zhang Qing summarized briefly.
After hearing what Zhang Qing said, Jiang Yuan knew why this director named Fu Yunshen was on the list.
It turns out that award-winning resume is still very important.
After getting a general idea, Jiang Yuan put Fu Yunshen on hold for the time being and looked at the next piece of information.
Before Zhang Qing introduced him, Jiang Yuan was surprised when he saw the other party's information.
Originally, Jiang Yuan thought that Fu Yunshen’s previous resume was already rich, but compared with the second director named Wang Wen, his resume was somewhat insignificant.
After all, in the column of participating in the production of works, Wang Wen only wrote half a page of manuscript, and the works he participated in were as numerous as the references of the thesis.
Moreover, Jiang Yuan took a quick look and recognized the names of several movies among them.
Although there were only a few, Jiang Yuan felt that the movies he took the time to watch and remember the names of were basically good movies.
And Wang Wen just happened to have participated in the production of these excellent works.
Observing Jiang Yuan's expression, Zhang Qing also made a supplementary explanation, "Although there are many works, basically none of them are the main directors of movies."
"But Wang Wen has rich experience in the industry and has been in the circle for 20 years. I think if we have such an experienced person, the filming should be less difficult." Zhang Qing explained the reason for this person's selection.
Jiang Yuan was well convinced by this point, "That's true, we can try to contact this person to discuss it."
He continued to turn the pages and looked at the last person's information. Jiang Yuan felt that the order of appearance of the information of the three consecutive candidates was relatively regular.
First of all, in terms of resume, each of the three can be considered to be more experienced than the other.
Wang Wen is fine, he just participated in more projects. However, the third director named Han Gui listed a list of works in which he generally participated in important roles such as director or producer.
"Han Gui is also a relatively old director. When I was in school, he was quite famous and had shot many outstanding works."
“But I don’t know since which year it has been going downhill. The works produced have basically been rated as bad films, and the reputation in recent years has been relatively worse.” Zhang Qing explained the reason why Han Gui was selected for the list.
After reading through the three documents, Jiang Yuan temporarily fell into thought.
In Jiang Yuan's opinion, each of the three directors has their own advantages and disadvantages.
But this is also the reason why Zhang Qing included these people's names in the list.
After all, Jiang Yuan was only looking for an assistant director or producer so that he could be a hands-off boss.
Such a position naturally makes it difficult to attract big directors to participate in this project.
But for the three lists given by Zhang Qing, Jiang Yuan felt that they should be able to facilitate cooperation with some effort.
After hesitating for a while, when the car was about to enter the street where Xingyuan Entertainment was located, Jiang Yuan made a decisive decision.
"These three..." Jiang Yuan paused for a moment, then continued, "Let's contact them all."
"Contact them all?" Zhang Qing was a little surprised.
"Yes." Jiang Yuan nodded, and suddenly he thought more clearly. Anyway, what his crew lacked most at the moment was talent.
Although these three directors have their own characteristics, they are naturally talented to be included in the list.
Jiang Yuan felt that with one more person, his position as a hands-off manager would be more secure.
So Jiang Yuan repeated to Zhang Qing, "If these three can reach a cooperation, our crew will accept them all."
"Okay." Zhang Qing had no objection to this. He took note of Jiang Yuan's words and prepared to contact the three people later.
Besides, not all of them could be invited together, so Zhang Qing just wanted to try it out.
The vehicle quickly drove to the entrance of Xingyuan Entertainment and Jiang Yuan got out of the car.
It was already late when we arrived at the company, but the street was brightly lit because Xingyuan Entertainment was located there.
In addition to the studio's own special audio-visual peripheral stores for fans to check in, there are also many stores with a more entertainment and cultural atmosphere, such as coffee shops and bookstores.
On summer nights, the air is still a little hot.
After finishing the magazine shoot, Jiang Yuan was only wearing a simple retro printed white T-shirt and dark gray thin trousers.
After getting out of the car with his bag, Jiang Yuan went straight into the coffee shop nearby.
It is a necessary ritual before arriving at the company. Due to the hot weather, even if there are fans who come to watch Jiang Yuan go to work, they will basically stay in the coffee shop.
It was just an ordinary day, so there weren't many fans.
It took Jiang Yuan a while to order coffee, but he was still able to handle it.
Carrying a cold drink, Jiang Yuan went straight to the recording studio to meet Deng Ge and Lu Qing.
Before the official work began, Deng Ge ordered takeout first. After the three of them had their meal together, Jiang Yuan listened to the work they had completed that day in the recording studio.
For Lv Qingxin's album, the recording progress is not slow as the music has been prepared.
As for the accompaniment tape, Lu Qing also has his own dedicated band to help record it.
It just so happened that after the new song was released, Lu Qing also had to perform, so he simply treated it as an advance rehearsal.
While Jiang Yuan was filming, Lu Qing went in and out of Xingyuan Entertainment for several days in a row, and worked on the album in a semi-secluded mode.
While drinking iced coffee and listening to music in headphones, Jiang Yuan nodded repeatedly.
Apart from the songs he gave, Lu Qing's other singles surprised Jiang Yuan a little.
Lu Qing's previous songs were more rough and straightforward, and they were all rock songs with a very distinctive style.
But this time the song doesn't sound very Lu Qing.
It's not particularly hard, and contains a lot of tenderness, making it a very soothing song.
"It feels like a very suitable song for the autumn season." After listening to the whole song, Jiang Yuan gave this evaluation.
“If the album is expected to be released at this time, it should be a very popular one.” Deng Ge also said in agreement.
Then, Jiang Yuan and Deng Ge listened to the next song that Lu Qing was going to record, and the work proceeded in an orderly manner.
In the next few days, Jiang Yuan's schedule was very regular.
My daily route is basically from home to Xingyuan Entertainment, just a straight line.
In addition to helping to complete the production of Lü Qingxin's album, Jiang Yuan also asked Zhang Qing to meet with many people.
Indeed, just as He Jing had predicted, not many people would refuse Jiang Yuan's invitation.
The preparation and establishment of the "Love Letter" team went quite smoothly, and basically everything went according to plan.
Fu Yunqing and three other directors also reached an agreement during the meeting with Jiang Yuan.
The three of them attached great importance to this opportunity, especially the first two, who felt it was a rare opportunity.
After all, the real money from the box office was there, shining brightly, allowing the two to see the hope of success waving at them.
Only Han Gui, who had the most experience, hesitated for a moment before taking on the job of producer.
The main reason was that he was a little arrogant at the beginning, but when he thought about his achievements in recent years, he quickly figured it out and agreed without waiting for Jiang Yuan to ask more questions.
While the new crew was taking shape bit by bit, the new January issue of "Monsoon" magazine served as Jiang Yuan's long-awaited cover. Once the interview and shooting highlights were released, they immediately became a hot topic of concern.
The questions that Jiang Yuan answered in the interview also became a means of pre-heating interviews for "Monsoon" before its release, which aroused curiosity.
