Whether Yan Lingyu can play the role of Ling'er in "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is secondary. Lu Yanhe now wants to know even more what happened to Yan Lingyu to make her suddenly give up her career as an actress.
In fact, since "Late Spring" was released, Lu Yanhe has not had much contact with the actors of this movie. Except for Wang Jing, who was chosen by Lu Yanhe to play "The Telephone" with Jiang Yuqian because of her role in "The Squid Game", the other actors only maintained contact with each other by saying a few greetings during the holidays.
On the one hand, they don’t have much contact with each other, and on the other hand, when this movie was being filmed, Lu Yanhe didn’t have much personal relationship with them. At that time, Lu Yanhe had already become famous and had a higher status in the crew than Liu Bige. The other actors were all newcomers. It was rare for him not to be nervous or reserved when facing Lu Yanhe. How could he develop a good personal relationship with him.
Just in terms of normal interpersonal communication, they all got acquainted because of this movie and had contact information. Compared with ordinary friends, they are still more familiar with each other.
Lu Yanhe immediately contacted Wang Jing to see if Wang Jing knew about Yan Lingyu's situation.
When Wang Jing heard his doubts, she explained: "Lingyu acted in two movies, both of which were badly criticized. She also lost her confidence in acting, and she refused to take roles in the future."
Lu Yanhe didn't know the situation of Yan Lingyu's next two movies. He had the impression that he didn't even know these two movies existed. Maybe I was too busy at that time to notice.
Yan Lingyu had a huge conflict with his agency mainly because of the two movies. These two movies were given to her by her agency. After "Late Spring" was released at that time, Yan Lingyu had actually become famous and attracted quite a lot of attention in the industry. Newcomers pay special attention to their starting point. Yan Lingyu's starting point can basically be described as one of the highest starting points in the history of Chinese film, so that her acting skills are slightly inferior, but she is not criticized.
No one has too high expectations for a newcomer's acting skills. Being able to do it without acting out and having such an atmospheric face is enough for the industry to wait for her to hone her acting skills and grow slowly.
It was under this situation that Yan Lingyu was accepted into the next two movies by his agency. Neither of the two movies had serious themes. One was a cruel youth love story, and the other was a fantasy production. As a result, it failed at the box office and was scolded by the audience. Yan Lingyu, who plays the heroine, is naturally the focus of artillery fire.
The scolding lasted for almost half a year, and then Yan Lingyu was scolded for being autistic and refused to act again.
"Half a year ago I heard that she seemed to be terminating her contract with the agency. I didn't know how to negotiate. There has been no new news." Wang Jing said, "Do you need me to ask?"
Lu Yanhe thought for a while , said: "You can help me ask."
"Okay." Wang Jing agreed, and said, "Actually, she called me at that time and asked me for my opinion."
"What's your opinion?" Lu Yanhe was a little confused.
"Can I ask you for help?" Wang Jing said, "She probably didn't go to you in the end, right?"
"No, after the movie promotion, we just like it on our friends circle. A few holiday greetings."
"Sure enough, she was afraid of disturbing you and causing trouble to you," Wang Jing said. "At that time, I told her. When I signed the contract with the company, I listened to your opinion, so I waited for a year before signing the contract with Northern Lights Video after the release of "Late Spring". She probably still felt that her matter was very troublesome, so she didn't. I'm so embarrassed to talk to you."
"So, maybe it's not that she doesn't want to act, but the contract restricts her and makes her unwilling to take the role?" Lu Yanhe asked.
"Maybe yes. However, maybe Ling Yu really doesn't want to act anymore. During the time when she was scolded by many people, she was very broken. She was really broken. Qingqing and I both went to accompany her. She, she is not good at all, I am afraid that she is depressed.”
Wang Jing sighed.
“The most important thing is that I heard Kong Fan say that she was jealous and ostracized in school at that time. The competition in Jingyi School was very fierce, and the relationship between girls was even more intense. It's subtle. If it hadn't happened in the next two movies, she might have had the aura of the heroine in "Late Spring", but there were still people around her. There will be a group of people who support her hypocritically, but after she was scolded, she was basically alienated. Kong Fan was a boy and had a girlfriend, so it was not convenient for him to help. Qingqing and I went to Jingyi from time to time. She, or asked her out.”
Lu Yanhe really didn’t know anything about these things.
This made him inexplicably depressed.
Although Lu Yanhe and Yan Lingyu had no personal relationship after filming, they were actors who had worked together before, and they got along pretty well during filming. As a result, when something like this happened to them later, he Haven't even heard of it.
Lu Yanhe told Wang Biao about this matter and asked Wang Biao to help him find out what was going on with Yan Lingyu and her current agency.
Wang Biao now has quite a wide network of contacts in the entertainment industry, and he quickly found out some basic information. Yan Lingyu signed to Weather Vane after "Late Spring". Wind Vane is also a large company with strong strength. When it signed a contract with Yan Lingyu, it specially released news.
“Yan Lingyu’s manager is called Du Weixian. It is true that there are rumors that Yan Lingyu and Du Weixian had a bad fight last year. There was a show where Yan Lingyu was originally scheduled to appear, but in the end, the person was temporarily replaced. It was said that Yan Lingyu refused to come," Wang Biao said, "It is said that Du Weixian accepted the show without Yan Lingyu's consent, and she had already broken up with Du Weixian."
Lu Yanhe sighed. .
“Yan Lingyu has not taken any job for more than a year. Many people in the industry feel that she has been hidden by the wind vane.”
"How long has she signed the contract with Wind Vane?"
"Eight years, there are still five years to go."
Lu Yanhe: "..."
-
Lu Yanhe told Luo Yuzhong everything about the situation.
"Yan Lingyu may not be able to perform in "Sword" for the time being."
Luo Yuzhong frowned when he heard what happened next.
He is a veteran and is much more familiar with this aspect of the entertainment industry than Lu Yanhe.
In the past many years, I don’t know how many times I have seen this kind of thing.
He asked: "Have you talked to Yan Lingyu?"
"Not yet." Lu Yanhe said, "I'm going to go find her directly. The last time I called her, she didn't say anything. She only said that she didn't want to act anymore. If I didn't talk to her face to face, I'm afraid she wouldn't Tell me the truth - Wang Jing has already helped me understand the situation. Anyway, her first movie was shot with me. I will see where I can help her, but this matter involves her. Conflict with the agency, our drama is about to start filming, I guess we won’t be able to make it in time On."
Luo Yuzhong noticed the genuine concern on Lu Yanhe's face, nodded, and said, "I'll go and communicate with you at Weathervane Company. You can talk to her at Yan Lingyu's place. Chat and see if she arrives What do you think? She has such good looks and has filmed "Late Spring". It is really a pity to give up being an actress so early."
Lu Yanhe did not expect that Luo Yuzhong would take the initiative to communicate with the vane company. . Does he admire Yan Lingyu so much?
However, there is one thing to say, Yan Lingyu's appearance is indeed top-notch even in the entertainment industry. She is not an ordinary beauty. Her facial features have a sense of story. Coupled with her natural cold and taciturn temperament, her beauty in "Late Spring" is unforgettable. To a certain extent, although she is not a replica of the fairy sister, her temperament is unique.
Perhaps for a director like Luo Yuzhong, the more actors he meets, the more he will understand what kind of face is precious.
-
“The director may have decided that Yan Lingyu would play the role of Ling’er.”
Speaking of this matter, Chen Siqi expressed his speculation.
"In the story "Sword of Immortality", the role of Ling'er is quite important. It can be said that she is the background of this story. Although you wrote this story completely according to Li Xiaoyao's growth line , but in Li Xiaoyao's growth line, Ling'er occupies the biggest key. "Chen Siqi said, "Li Xiaoyao is the real part, and Ling'er is the virtual part, which is more spiritual, pure, and like a beauty that cannot really exist in the world. If this character cannot stand, the whole story will be compromised. "
Chen Siqi’s words shocked Lu Yanhe.
Of course he knows how important the character of Ling'er is to "Legend of Sword and Fairy". This drama was very popular back then, and it was obviously a male-led drama, but the character of Ling'er almost rivaled Li Xiaoyao, because The character design of this character is so perfect. It is almost the most perfect character design that has ever appeared in movies and TV series. Both boys and girls like it.
But before this drama came out, just by reading the script, Chen Siqi clearly understood the importance of the role of Ling'er to "Legend of Sword and Fairy", not just as a heroine The importance, Lu Yanhe felt more and more, how accurate Chen Siqi's judgment and vision of a drama now was.
No wonder, Chen Siqi can find the most suitable promotion and marketing method for a drama every time. A person who doesn't really understand drama can't figure out what method is most appropriate.
Lu Yanhe said: "I still haven't thought about how to tell Yan Lingyu about this."
Chen Siqi thought for a while and said: "I think you should figure it out first. , whether she is still willing to film, this is the most important thing. If she has no such willingness at all, even if the agency helps her solve the problem, it will not help, and she must find other actors as soon as possible. "< br>
"Yes." Lu Yanhe nodded, "I have made an appointment with her to have lunch near her house tomorrow at noon. How about you go with me? I don't know her very well. If it's just the two of us, It would be quite embarrassing."
Chen Siqi said: "I am. It's okay to go with you, but I don't know her either. It might make it harder for her to express her thoughts. Didn't Wang Jing tell you that she wanted to ask you for help before, but she didn't in the end because she was afraid of trouble? You."
"So is it."
Chen Siqi. : "Just talk to her openly and honestly. Firstly, the role in "Sword" is indeed suitable for her. Secondly, aside from "Sword", you two have worked together before and have such a fate. Wherever you can help, It doesn't make sense to turn a blind eye. Let her stop being so closed off. Let's take a test. In fact, if I were her, I would definitely need your help very much right now, but I'm embarrassed to ask. She has only been in the entertainment industry for a short time, and she may know the most capable person to help her solve this matter. , that’s you.”
Lu Yanhe nodded.
-
Yan Lingyu is still the same as when he was filming before, as if nothing has changed.
She came alone, without bodyguards or assistants. She only wore light makeup. She looked less like a female star and more like a college student who was still studying in college.
Lu Yanhe praised: "She's still so beautiful."
Yan Lingyu smiled, lowered his head, waved his hand, and said: "I'm so sorry, Yan He, thank you for your play and still thinking of me. , but I may not be suitable to be an actor.”
Lu Yanhe was stunned.
Before the pleasantries even started, Yan Lingyu immediately got into the topic.
This made him a little confused.
"It's okay, let's sit down." Lu Yanhe said, "It was also this time that I suddenly heard you say that you didn't want to act anymore. I was shocked. I asked Wang Jing, and then I found out that you had filmed "Late Spring" What happened next.”
Yan Lingyu smiled a little sadly.
"It's embarrassing."
"How could it be possible? This actually has little to do with you." Lu Yanhe said decisively, "It's because the director didn't find your good points and filmed them. You see, you are "The performance in "Late Spring" was so good that it amazed everyone."
The light in Yan Lingyu's eyes was dim. Even so, it didn't seem to touch her much.
“Besides, I’ve also heard about what happened between you and your company.” Lu Yanhe changed the subject and said, “Lingyu, you said you don’t want to act anymore. Are you really not interested in acting anymore? Because of the relationship with the brokerage company?”
Yan Lingyu looked at Lu Yanhe blankly.
"Although we don't usually have much contact, if you need any help, you can come to us, although I may not be able to help." Lu Yanhe said very seriously, "In addition to wanting to know more about your acting In addition to my thoughts, I also want to ask you face to face, what is your current situation with the agency, and what can I do for you?"
Yan Lingyu's eyes really turned red for a moment.
No exaggeration.
Maybe even the movie special effects are not as fast as her moment.
Sometimes human emotions are like thunder and rain, coming suddenly and without warning.
-
Lu Yanhe waited for Yan Lingyu to calm down and began to tell what happened between her and her agency. When he heard the end, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The conflict between Yan Lingyu and her agency is actually not big or small.
To put it bluntly, the response to the two movies Yan Lingyu accepted at the request of the company was very bad, which also dealt a serious blow to Yan Lingyu. As a result, she questioned the roles the company gave her. She refused to cooperate with the job assigned to her by the company.
Wind vane did not realize that Yan Lingyu at this time was actually just hurt by the previous results. If he could be coaxed and persuaded, it would be fine.
They regarded Yan Lingyu as a disobedient actor and were determined to teach him a lesson.
As a result, Yan Lingyu, who had been criticized for his film performance, was surrounded by negative comments almost all the time due to the troll attacks arranged by the company.
Even the company required everyone to ignore Yan Lingyu and not give her a good look.
Yan Lingyu's mood and state collapsed directly under this situation. By the time Yan Lingyu realized that there were instructions from the company behind all this, her mentality had collapsed countless times. And even if she knew the reason for the neglect and hostility towards her in the surrounding environment, she would not have any power to compete with the company.
Yan Lingyu was "taught" until he was helpless and disheartened. She had thought about whether she could ask Lu Yanhe and Liu Bige for help, but she also knew that when it came to her agency contract, even Lu Yanhe and Liu Bige couldn't help much. She asked the company to terminate the contract, and the company directly offered her a termination fee of 30 million.
Since she entered this industry, she has never seen even three million, let alone thirty million.
A big mountain was pressing on her, and she had no way to climb over it.
So, just like that, she decided not to be an artist or act anymore.
-
"Actually, it's not a big deal. If she could just soften up, lower her head, and tell the truth, we wouldn't have been cold to her for so long. When we signed her, that was also A lot of resources were invested in her Yes, she doesn’t work, and it’s us who are at fault. The little girl is arrogant and doesn’t listen to arrangements. We have arranged all the programs for her. She is a resident guest of the popular variety show, and she has spent a lot of effort to negotiate it for her. If you don’t want to go, you won’t go.”
Luo Yuzhong was sitting in the room of the owner of the Wind Vane Brokerage Company, listening to another man's complaints and complaints together with the owner of the Wind Vane Brokerage Company.
Yan Lingyu’s agent, Du Weixian.
"It's her honor that you can take a fancy to her and find her to act in a play." Du Wei said with a smile on his face: "It's just that she has a very tough temper. The director, she won't accept it now." My phone, actually, my hand There is also a newcomer who has just signed a contract. Her appearance is no worse than Yan Lingyu. Do you want to meet her?”
Luo Yuzhong: “It’s obvious that there are still some roles in this drama that have not been finalized. people, but in my heart The best candidate for the heroine is Yan Lingyu, Mr. Chen. If you are willing to give me this face, you should not suffer any loss if you let her play my drama. This drama stars Lu Yanhe, Li Zhibai and Yan Liang. "Xianxia drama, I don't need to say how much attention the heroine of this drama will receive. After this drama is broadcast, you can slowly talk about the internal affairs of Yan Lingyu and your company, what do you think?"
Du Weixian still wanted to talk.
Mr. Chen glanced sideways, and Du Wei closed his mouth instantly.
Mr. Chen smiled slightly at Luo Yuzhong and said: "Director, it is her honor and our honor that you like Yan Lingyu. Don't worry, we will definitely send Yan Lingyu to him before the crew starts filming. The crew is reporting in."
Luo Yuzhong nodded, "That's it. Thank you Mr. Chen. It is normal for young people to have tempers and lose their temper. I think Yan Lingyu will definitely grow up after this incident. We elders should be more tolerant and less angry when they grow up. , naturally he can understand our mood."
Mr. Chen nodded.
“We will organize a round of auditions later. There are still many roles in our drama that have not yet been cast. At that time, we also ask Mr. Chen to send some more potential actors to try out for us. Provide more choices." Luo Yuzhong smiled.
"For Director Luo's plays, as long as our actors have time, we will let them audition." Mr. Chen said with a smile, "I also ask you to provide more guidance. It doesn't matter whether or not the play is auditioned in the end. It's enough if you can give them some guidance." They have benefited.”
The two settled the matter in person. After sending Luo Yuzhong to the elevator door, and waiting for him to get off, he turned to Du Weixian and said, "What's going on with Yan Lingyu? When did we hide her? Isn't she the heroine of "Late Spring"?" Du Weixian's face changed slightly. , opened his mouth and wanted to explain a few words, but Mr. Chen didn't seem to want to listen to him.
“Go and ask Mr. Wen to come to my office.”
Mr. Wen, Wen Ken, is the vice president of the Vane Company in charge of artist management and coordination.
Du Weixian's expression didn't change slightly this time, but completely changed.
-
"Buzzing." The phone vibrated.
After having a meal with Lu Yanhe, Yan Lingyu returned to the apartment and picked up his phone.
On the phone is a message just sent by Lu Yanhe: Director Luo has negotiated with the boss of your company. They will change you to an agent and support you in "Legend of Sword and Fairy". After that, you How far you can handle the relationship with your company depends on you, but no matter how you choose to handle it, you will always be stronger and have more choices. I still hope you can seriously consider "Legend of Sword and Fairy". If you act in this drama, maybe it can completely change your current situation.
Yan Lingyu sat on the sofa and looked at the message on the phone screen. He read it countless times. He was silent for a long time and hesitated for a long time.
In the hotel, Lu Yanhe told her that it was not uncommon for artists to be bullied and squeezed by agencies. He understood her current lack of confidence and belittlement of herself, but this was not a problem of acting skills, it was a matter of her being suppressed in life. moment, the question of whether she should withstand it or not.
Lu Yanhe's words were like a stone grinder, crushing her heart.
Yan Lingyu still has no self-confidence, and because he has not worked or acted for more than a year, he spends almost all of his time at home alone, and has lost his sensitivity to the outside world——
< br>Acting?
Yan Lingyu suddenly covered his face at this moment and couldn't help crying.
-
“Yan Lingyu is actually not a very confident person.”
Wang Jing sat cross-legged in front of the coffee table. Next to her was Kong Fan.
Lu Yanhe specially made an appointment with the two of them to eat hot pot at Ziyuanqiao tonight - it was also because of Yan Lingyu's incident that he realized that he had not contacted his friends from the "Late Spring" crew for too long. .
We originally had an appointment with He Qingqing, but He Qingqing was filming on the set and had to miss out.
Lu Yanhe was surprised and asked: "She has a face like that, but she is not confident yet?"
"She has been suppressed by her mother because she has been good-looking since she was a child. , saying that she has no other advantages except good looks, saying that she is useless." Wang Jing sighed, "So she has always been quite unconfident, and she didn't talk much when she was with us. I also think she is aloof and doesn't like to talk to us."
Kong Fan: "She does give everyone such an impression in school. Everyone says she is as proud as a swan, which is why everyone does not like her. The reason why you dare to approach her is that even if you are a girl, the boys in our school think that she is the flower of the high mountains and no one dares to approach her."
Lu Yanhe was actually quite surprised by Kong Fan and Wang Jing's words.
Because this completely broke Lu Yanhe's impression of Yan Lingyu.
However, when these words spoken by the two of them are put together with Yan Lingyu, it does not seem to be inconsistent. Because Yan Lingyu is usually like that, but the way of interpretation is different.
“I still hope she can resolve the conflict with the company.” Wang Jing said with her chin in her hand.
At this time, Chen Siqi came back.
Lu Yanhe heard the sound at the door and stood up in surprise.
"Why are you back now? Didn't you say you had an appointment with someone for dinner?"
"I had an appointment with someone for dinner. I'll come back and change clothes first." Chen Siqi said, "I drank coffee during the day and accidentally spilled it on myself. The mark is too obvious. "
Lu Yanhe then noticed that there was a darker mark on Chen Siqi's waist - it was just because she was wearing a dark blue shirt today. If she didn't look carefully, Hardly noticed.
Chen Siqi first said hello to Wang Jing and Kong Fan.
“Sorry, I couldn’t have hot pot with you because I had arranged work in advance. Ah, I really want to eat hot pot——”
Her eyes sparkled when she looked at the hot pot, and she waved to Wang Jing and Kong Fan, "I have to go in and change clothes, otherwise I will be late. You guys eat slowly."
Chen Siqi only took five minutes. After changing into a set of clothes, he said goodbye to Wang Jing and Kong Fan with a smile and a decent posture before leaving.
Obviously the whole process was very stressful, but it gave people a warm feeling of being taken care of.
"I'll send her downstairs. You guys eat first, and I'll be up right away."
Lu Yanhe sent Chen Siqi downstairs.
Wang Jing and Kong Fan looked at each other.
The hot pot was bubbling between the two of them.
After a while, Wang Jingcai said: "Are they two so sweet? It makes me want to fall in love."
Kong Fan smiled.
"Then you fall in love. Haven't you met someone you like?"
"Yes, but I always feel that being in a relationship affects my work. The two people I talked about before thought that I was too busy with work and had no time to go out with them, so I gave up."
"Young Master Try your best, I actually find it strange that your ambition is the strongest I have ever seen."
"Are Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi's ambitions weak? How can they be so perfectly matched to have a double harvest in career and love? I also want a double harvest." Wang Jing pouted, "Well, actually, if If Yu could have half the character of Chen Siqi, she wouldn't be so broken. "
Kong Fan: "She just signed with the agency too early. If she had been like you and waited until "Late Spring" was released before signing with the agency, the signing conditions would have been much better. "
" I have to thank Lu Yanhe for this. It was he who suggested that I not rush to sign the contract. After the film was released, there were completely two situations. "Wang Jing said, "Obviously Lingyu is the heroine, and she received the most attention in "Late Spring", but I was the one who benefited the most, just because I and Bei Ji. In Guang’s contract terms, he promised to give me one female-led drama every year.”
Kong Fan: "Ling Yu felt that she was deceived by the weather vane from the very beginning. After she knew that the signing conditions she got were so poor, there was a disagreement with her agent. Later, as you know, her agent gave In the two movies she accepted, she didn't want to act in them from the beginning. It was her agent who forced her to act in them. Next, she was asked to act, but in the end, the relationship fell apart."
Wang Jing: "Fortunately, Yan He was there to help her mediate this time."
"Actually, Yan He was there. He is really a nice person. I regret not keeping in touch because I was afraid of disturbing him. Kong Fan suddenly thought of something, smiled and said, "Actually, I was shocked when I received his call today. I thought something was wrong."
Wang Jing: "Who made you think that." Duo, after filming with him for so long, others don’t know, don’t you know what he is like privately? What kind of person is he? Anyway, I usually ask his opinion when I have something to do. He has experienced a lot more than us. With his opinion, we can avoid many detours."
"You. Having worked with him so many times, of course you can ask him.”
"Didn't I just work with him once like you at the beginning? Besides, you were the most familiar with him when we were filming. You are too timid to disturb him. Who's to blame?" Wang Jing said , "And, why should we be afraid of disturbing him?" His advantage is that if you become better and more popular, you can also help him. He did jump theater. At the beginning, no actors were willing to perform such experimental short plays. At this time, we will perform it. ."
Kong Fan smiled, "If I wish I had your mentality."
"I'm surprised you don't have this mentality," Wang Jing said, "Do you still expect Yan He to take the initiative to pay attention to what you need?"
“No, I haven’t thought about it Why do you want him to help me in particular?" Kong Fan sighed, "Not everyone can be as casual as you." "Casual?" Wang Jing immediately rolled his eyes, "Are you insinuating something?" ?”
"No, that's not what I meant." Kong Fan immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, "I mean, this is determined by your personality. You are very generous and can express your own thoughts, but I Neither Yan Lingyu nor Yan Lingyu has such a personality. It’s not that they don’t want to, but that they are unable to do anything.”
The two looked at each other.
The hot pot was still bubbling among them.
-
When Yan Lingyu was finally confirmed to play the role of Linger, Lu Yanhe thought he could breathe a sigh of relief.
What Lu Yanhe didn't expect was that in addition to Ling'er, another very important female character, Lin Yueru, and Luo Yuzhong were also interested -
Xiao Yun.
However, before Lu Yanhe could say anything, Luo Yuzhong vetoed it himself.
Firstly, with Xiao Yun's current popularity and status, there is no need to play the second female lead in a fairy tale drama with a male protagonist. Secondly, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" does not have extra budget for Xiao Yun. The pay was paid.
Based on Xiao Yun's current market salary, even if she only wanted a friendship price, it would be close to ten million.
Luo Yuzhong instructed the casting director to find an actress based on Xiao Yun's shape.
As for another important role, Anu, Luo Yuzhong finally had no intention of choosing a candidate and decided to leave it to auditions to find an actor.
This is the first time Lu Yanhe has seen Luo Yuzhong prepare for a drama in the early stage and how he chooses actors.
For some roles, Luo Yuzhong already has a suitable actor in mind, and for some roles, Luo Yuzhong has no suitable actor in his mind for the time being. For this type, the casting director needs to search for those who meet the basic conditions and then invite them. Audition.
At first, Luo Yuzhong went to Star Entertainment to organize an audition for a role with a small role in the drama "Golden Age", which shows that he has high requirements for actors.
Lu Yanhe also discovered that almost all good directors attach great importance to casting.
Even attaching so much importance to it that Lu Yanhe felt it was too much.
Luo Yuzhong obviously has a picture of what kind of actor should play each role in his mind. There are many actors that Lu Yanhe thinks are quite suitable after watching the video. Luo Yuzhong did not hesitate to put a cross .
He already has a clear idea of what "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is going to look like.
-
Northern Lights Video also introduced their latest production management system, which will be used in the filming of "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
In the past, the filming of a movie required countless communication group chats, phone calls, and on-site meetings, which involved the cooperation of various departments and types of work. This process was laborious and error-prone. The production management system developed by Northern Lights Video can gather information on shooting materials, fund usage, shooting progress, crew props, scene dynamics, etc. in real time. Each department can directly see each department directly in this system. progress.
Not only that, for green screen movies like "Legend of Sword and Fairy", which have many special effects, it can provide real-time virtual scene technology, so that the samples shot on site can directly show a rough scene combined with special effects. The effect can be used to judge whether the filmed material can be used. If it cannot be used, it can be reshot immediately -
In the past, such problems might not be discovered until the editing room. At that time, reshooting would either be time-consuming and laborious, or impossible, and could only be solved through other technical means, which would affect the final quality of the film.
The actors can also see on the scene at any time what the scene they are performing into the air will look like on the screen, which facilitates the director and actors to make adjustments and avoids the inconsistency between the actor's performance and the special effects production in the later stage. Bad effect.
Luo Yuzhong is very interested in the production management system provided by Northern Lights. He has been pondering and researching it and communicates with Lu Yanhe from time to time.
Lu Yanhe also followed and learned the most advanced system for domestic film and television drama production.
This completely changed the way the traditional crew shoots.
He can foresee that when this kind of production management system is promoted throughout the industry, there will be a major change in the production process of the entire industry.
However, it won’t be possible for a short time now, because this is a system developed by Northern Lights Video itself and is not authorized to be released to the public.
Luo Yuzhong said: "Xiaohe, let's go back and discuss with Northern Lights, at least let them share this technology with us. How much time and loss can we save in shooting with such a system?"
Lu Yanhe couldn’t laugh or cry.
"Then I have to discuss it with them. I don't know if they will agree." He said.
Luo Yuzhong said: "This thing is really good. It can even directly simulate the shooting effect through the early design of the shooting scene and lens movement, so that I can watch it directly in this system. The basic effects of different shooting plans, including on-site lighting testing and lens movement, can all be simulated in this system first.”
Luo Yuzhong became more and more excited as he talked.
Lu Yanhe said: "Okay, teacher, let's go talk to them later and ask them to authorize us to use this production management system, even if we pay a usage fee."
