Being a director starts with fighting domestic violence

The junior sister is very smart. Both of her movies were big hits, and she also made a lot of money from the TV series.

Moreover, Gao You’s company has also made achievements in variety shows.

Yan Jiarong, a senior from the directing department who was several years older than them, originally worked as a staff director at a local TV station.

Now he has been poached by Gao You and serves as the director of the variety show department. He now has two popular variety shows, "Helping the National Games" and the cultural talk show "Talking about the Past and Present".

Coupled with the recently established Women Filmmakers Association and Foundation, Gao You has also gained considerable influence in the industry.

In short, Gao You hasn't even graduated yet, but he's already the most famous, award-winning and influential alumnus in the school.

Many people who have worked in the film and television industry for many years sigh with regret that every generation has its own talented people. If the older generation does not seek innovation and change, they will not be able to keep up with this increasingly fast-paced era.

However, with the gradual opening up of various aspects, many people are ready to move forward and no longer hold on to their iron rice bowls. They have quit their jobs in film studios, television stations and newspapers to start their own businesses.

Some people have set up private film and television companies, produced TV series, sold them to TV stations, and cooperated with film studios to make movies.

Some people opened advertising companies to engage in marketing and publicity.

Some people have started cultural media companies, producing variety shows, interview documentaries, cultural documentaries, etc.

The mainland's cultural and entertainment methods are gradually becoming more diverse and active.

In fact, He Meiying was also a little shaken.

In the past, she was assigned to Qingying Studio and was able to stay in Beijing, which was a very good job arrangement for someone like her from an ordinary family.

However, with a daring and enterprising colleague like Gao You, He Meiying also had the urge to go out and do something on her own.

Of course, she never told anyone about this idea, and she still did her editing work diligently with Gao You every day.

If you can do this job well and become the best, that is also a kind of success, isn't it?

The post-production of "Extreme 8848" was basically completed. Gao You didn't have time to take a vacation, so he went to Guangdong Province with his new assistant Diao Yushan.

Qu Linglang was a talented screenwriter, so Gao You asked her to concentrate on writing the script and found an assistant.

After completing "No Longer Silent", the TV drama department of Gao You Company also invested in a twelve-episode TV drama "Working Sister", which is now ready and will soon start filming in Guangdong Province.

This project is the TV series with the largest investment made by Gaoyou Company so far.

The estimated production cost of each episode is around RMB 150,000.

The box office success of "General Mulan" in Guangdong Province made Gao You well-known here, and negotiations for cooperation with the Guangdong Provincial TV Station went very smoothly.

After reading the script, the Guangdong Provincial TV Station was very satisfied with the TV series and signed a cooperation agreement with Gao You's company.

This is the first time that Gao You’s senior sister Yu Cheng has directed a TV series, and with such a huge investment, Yu Cheng herself is still a little nervous.

She received funding from Gao You and completed her graduation project. She was originally assigned to a TV station in another province.

However, Gao You extended an olive branch to her and asked her to direct "Working Sister". Yu Cheng gave up her job at the TV station, stayed in Beijing, and became a member of Gao You's TV drama production department.

Now, she is about to direct her first TV series.

If she went to the assigned TV station, she might never have the chance to take the director's baton again in the next few years or even decades.

This decision was one of the two biggest decisions Yu Cheng made in his life. One of them was to take the directing exam.

"Are you nervous?" Ran Quan, Yu Cheng's classmate, roommate for four years, and good friend, patted Yu Cheng on the shoulder and joked with her.

Ran Quan was also one of the people who received funding from Gao You to shoot her graduation work. This time she came to serve as a producer for Yu Cheng.

The two have been working together very well for four years, whether it is writing, directing or producing. It is a very happy thing for them to be able to work together again after graduation.

"Aren't you nervous?" Yu Cheng asked his friend with a smile.

They never thought that they would be able to film a drama right after graduation, and it would be a project with such a large investment.

All this was because of a junior sister named Gao You who gave them the opportunity.

They cherish this opportunity very much and must use what they have learned in the past four years to make the play a success and live up to Gao You's trust in them.

"It would be strange if I wasn't nervous." Ran Quan laughed.

But the nervousness did not hinder their dedication to the drama.

In the past few months, they and their classmate Jiang Li from the Department of Literature have been collecting materials in Guangdong Province, and have met many sisters from all over the country who have come to Guangdong Province to work.

They all have their own joys and sorrows in life. Most of them come from poor backgrounds, some come from remote mountainous areas, and some leave the village for the first time.

They have different personalities, some are confused, some are strong, some go with the flow, and some strive to be the best.

It is their responsibility and honor as practitioners to be able to show a little bit of their lives through TV dramas.

"Working Sisters" tells the story of four sisters who come from all over the country, and they all happen to be the eldest sisters in the family.

She is the eldest sister, or more like an important resource or tool in the family. She has been helping with housework and taking care of her younger sisters and brothers since she was young.

When they grew up, they went south to work in order to support their younger brother's college education, earn money for his dowry, and build a wedding house for him, and to escape the fate of being forced to marry a fool.

They came to a garment factory to work as workers, encountered a series of life experiences, and finally helped each other to escape their arranged fate and find their new life together.

On the day of the opening ceremony, Gao You, as the representative of the investor and producer, spoke briefly on the stage, hoping that the filming of "Working Sisters" would go smoothly, and that the drama could give a little comfort to the millions of sisters working in Guangdong Province after their hard work.

Yu Cheng and Ran Quan stood by, applauding their junior sister and their boss.

"First of all, thank you Director Gao for giving us this opportunity. We will live up to your expectations in filming this drama." Ran Quan spoke as the producer and first thanked Gao You.

Yu Cheng, who is more silent in nature, also said a few words of encouragement.

After the opening ceremony, the TV series "Working Sister" officially started filming.

The drama was filmed in a small county town in Guangdong Province. They rented a special venue and built a factory scene and dormitory scene, etc.

The actors in the film are mainly students from the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy, as well as local actors from Guangdong Province.

Gao You watched the set for a few days and found that Ran Quan was efficient and organized, and she managed the entire crew very well.

Director Yu Cheng doesn’t talk much, but he has strict demands and high standards and has his own style, so there is no need to worry too much about the quality.

Gao You then boldly let them continue filming and prepared to go back to prepare for his new film.

When leaving the town, Gao You seemed to see Liu Xiaozhen on a passing tricycle.
