Chapter 387 The cause of the Battle of Chibi
Beijing, a villa somewhere
If there is nothing else, Director Bai Ge is usually used to sleeping until he wakes up naturally.
Today is no exception.
As soon as I opened my eyes, a charming voice came from beside me: "Director, are you awake?"
Feeling the warmth on his hand, he remembered the romantic incident last night.
Last night I invited several well-known actors to audition, and we had dinner together afterward.
I drank a little too much, but when I wanted to do something at night, I found that my legs were weak and I couldn't stand up.
Later, it was Lin Zhilin’s call for love that helped Director Wu regain his ability to move.
How did you call?
It’s like ‘Mengmeng, stand up’!
While thinking about it, Director Wu exclaimed that something was wrong, his passive skill was automatically triggered.
Director Bai Ge lies contentedly on the bed and smokes. Every time the fireworks are set off in his head, he will be bursting with inspiration.
Recently, Lu Wei, the screenwriter Wu Kebo hired, had just written a version of the script. After reading it himself, he was not very satisfied.
I feel that the level of well-known mainland screenwriters is just that, there is no innovation at all, they are just copying "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
If I just copy books, do you still need to come?
Learning from the lessons of "The Wind Whisperer", Director Wu felt that it would be easy for this kind of story to be filmed based on historical facts, so it must be innovative.
Mainland screenwriters are still too rigid when it comes to innovation, so he decided to do it himself.
The Battle of Chibi, the battle between the Cao Wei Group and the Sun and Liu Allied Forces must have a justified reason.
After a cigarette, Director Wu had an idea. He was going to learn from the Greek myth "Troy".
The Greek coalition can launch a war in the Mediterranean region because of a woman, why can't Cao Cao?
Well, what an amazing idea.
Looking at Lin Zhilin, who was lying next to him like a kitten, Xiao Qiao was fine.
After telling the other party her thoughts, Miss Zhilin immediately covered her mouth in surprise with a look of disbelief.
“The director wants to add a scene to me?”
The effect of hesitating is really good.
Lin Zhilin immediately got up obediently and murmured: "You are hungry, I will help you get some food~"
Not long after, there was a sound coming from the open kitchen There was the sound of fat frying as Miss Zhilin made fried eggs.
This little woman~
After everything was done, Lin Zhilin returned to the bedroom and coaxed Director Bai Ge to get up like a child.
In the open kitchen, two glasses of milk and two fried eggs were quietly placed on the table.
The TV in the kitchen has been turned on and entertainment news is playing.
This little girl is really good at serving others and arranges everything in an orderly manner.
"China Entertainment Report", Liu Yan, dressed in a trendy dress, is reporting the news.
Director Bai Ge recognized this person. It was this female host who interviewed him last time. Afterwards, he hinted that the other party still pretended not to understand, was not sensible at all, and was not as good as Lin Zhilin in front of him. .
The two people sat around the table, and the sound of knives scraping on the plate filled the room.
“Yesterday, the reporter of this column made a special trip to visit the crew of "Painted Skin", obtained first-hand entertainment information, and conducted interviews with the director and relevant leading actors~"
Liu Yan on camera Stepping forward, Director Wu forked a piece of egg and put it into his mouth, listening with great interest.
Although Zhang Chen targeted him several times and he hated this person, it did not prevent him from liking this guy's gossip.
I must admit that Zhang Chen is still a very interesting person when it is not directed at him. It is indeed quite refreshing to hear him criticize others.
For example, Zhang Weiping is being criticized and Zhang Chen is openly declaring war. "Painted Skin" is going to go head-to-head with "Golden Armor", which is exciting to hear.
In fact, everyone loves to hear gossip, as long as the protagonist of the gossip is not themselves.
Then we talked about "Mo Gong".
He knew about the project "Mo Gong", Zhang Zhiliang's project.
Zhang Zhiliang is a contemporary director of him. He is as famous as Xu Ke in Hong Kong. Wen Zhangwu in Xu Li refers to Zhang Zhiliang.
He swept the Academy Awards with "Cage Man" and "One Flew Over Dusk" back then, and he is also a ruthless person.
But then it fell off the market, and there was no particularly strong output of works, so it gradually fell behind, and now it is reduced to just being a bad person in the mainland.
Wait a minute, being reduced to the mainland is just a waste~
Isn’t this scolding myself?
But he was relieved immediately. He was different from those muddy people who couldn't hold up the wall. He was an internationally renowned director who had proven himself in Hollywood.
My coming to the mainland was a dimensionality reduction and poverty alleviation~
Dao Wu took a sip of milk and thought of Wu Kebo again.
This guy told himself every day that he would cooperate to develop "Red Cliff", but the funds were not available for a long time.
Later, he was forced to tell the truth. It turned out that he was in contact with Zou Wenhuai and wanted to acquire the Jiahe shares from the other party.
Wu Kebo made a good plan and first used the "Red Cliff" project to stabilize himself and create momentum.
Then go talk to Zou Wenhuai.
After successfully settling in Jiahe, as long as it is announced that the "Red Cliff" project will be controlled and invested by Jiahe, Jiahe's stock will continue to rise.
In this way, there will be money for filming "Red Cliff".
Wanting to understand the key to this, Wu Baige had to admire the other party's good calculation. It was really interlocking.
As for whether Wu Kebo can succeed in the acquisition, he has no doubts.
Zou Wenhuai is old and has no successors. Jiahe is now heavily in debt.
If Zou Wenhuai was twenty years younger, it would definitely not be a problem.
But he is now over eighty and cannot save Jiahe.
In the absence of other competitors, Wu Kebo has a high possibility of winning Jiahe.
Wu Baige continued to split the omelette with a knife and fork, cut off a piece, and put it into his mouth with a fork.
Behind him, a fiery body came up, almost triggering another passive skill.
Wu Baige was about to drive those messy thoughts out of his mind and enjoy the beauty, when he suddenly heard his own name in his ears.
The attention was diverted instantly, and then there was indignation~
Zhang Chen, you rush to the street, just say "Mo Gong" when you talk about "Mo Gong", what are you doing to me? I can't control it. Epic theme, "Windtalker" was also mentioned.
He is now tired of people mentioning "Wind Whisperer" in front of him.
"This is a slap in the street~"
At this time, Director Wu completely lost his interest and cursed loudly, but unfortunately Zhang Chen couldn't hear it.
If Zhang Chen really heard it, I'm afraid he would reflect on it.
If someone you hate scolds you, you must be doing something right.
……
The crew of "Painted Skin"
Huang Xiaoming has returned and is back into filming.
But the highlight today is not about him, but about Mr. Zhou and Fan Binbin.
What we are going to shoot today is the most powerful scene in "Painted Skin" - Xiao Wei changing her skin.
The little bird spirit did not want Xiao Wei to continue to sink in the human world, so she decided to persuade her to leave, even at the cost of killing Wang Sheng.
Xiao Wei tried every means to stop her, even turning against the little bird spirit.
The little bird spirit left in disappointment, but she didn’t know that this incident would clear Xiao Wei’s suspicion.
Xiao Wei took the opportunity to express her feelings to Wang Sheng but was rejected. He couldn't understand Wang Sheng and clearly felt that Wang Sheng loved her but he still refused to accept her. People believed that the little bird spirit was the latest heart-breaking monster. Pei Rong felt that she had misunderstood Xiao Wei and came to apologize.
Pei Rong opened the door and found Xiao Wei combing her hair in front of the camera.
"Sister Xiao Wei~"
"Sister Peirong, are you not asleep yet?"
"Sister Xiao Wei, I think there is something that I should discuss with you..."
Pei Rong is mentally prepared for Wang Sheng to take Xiao Wei as his concubine.
But Xiao Wei, who was repeatedly rejected, was aroused to be competitive, and she chose to reveal her true identity in front of Pei Rong.
Under Pei Rong's gaze, he peeled off his face bit by bit, revealing his fox body.
"Oh, you discovered me..."
The words were soft, but they sounded endlessly frightening.
Pei Rong ran away in panic, and Xiao Wei's words came from behind: "Go and tell the others, anyone who knows will die anyway."
During the filming, Mr. Zhou tore up a pair of Silicone masks are actually not complicated to make, but they cannot be made in China, so they have to book them in Hollywood.
The development time of CG makeup in China is too short, and there are no mature solutions for many situations.
Silicon masks have been widely used since the time of "Mission: Impossible 1". I didn't expect that after so many years, there is still a blank in this area in China.
When shooting on site, it was not that amazing.
This kind of lens must be rendered with special effects before it will look good. At that time, the edges of the silicone mask will be blurred, making the overall effect look more like real human skin.
In the original film, Xiao Wei is obviously a fox demon, but after taking off the mask, his head is like a worm-like collection, which looks indescribably disgusting.
Zhang Chen has made changes in this version. Since Xiao Wei is a fox demon, he must look like a fox demon.
After Xiao Wei took off the mask, what was revealed was a face that was half human and half fox. It was strange, but not scary~
“Ka~”
Zhang Chen directly Called a timeout: "Bingbing, you have to remember that you are a demon, in your heart You despised human beings, but now that you are ready to show off, you have nothing to worry about, so your momentum must be sufficient~"
Fan Xiaopang's performance was a bit off, Zhang Chen proposed She was thinking carefully about her request.
If he hadn't been playing tricks on Fan Xiaopang every night, she would have been turned into a scum by Young Master Zhou.
I have to say that Mr. Zhou’s acting skills are indeed good. Now he looks like Pei Rong with every smile and every frown.
In comparison, Fan Xiaopang's performance was a bit unsatisfactory, at best it could only be considered unplayable.
Fan Xiaopang hid aside and thought quietly, his momentum was not enough?
She is a woman born with a queenly temperament. Especially after her status has gradually improved in the past two years, her queenly temperament has become more and more obvious.
"Yes, that's it. Keep it up, this is the aura I want~"
Feeling that Fan Xiaopang had found the right path, Zhang Chen immediately affirmed him.
“Hold on, let’s do it again~”
Seeing that Fan Xiaopang was in good condition, Zhang Chen immediately called people to start.
The scene notes are laid out, all units are in place, and shooting begins~
"Oops, I was discovered by you..."
"Ka~"
The new performance was perfect. Zhang Chen watched the replay again and felt that both Mr. Zhou and Fan Xiaopang were both Well done.
This shot finally passed.
But he’s not done yet, it still depends on the special effects director’s nod.
A shot like this with heavy special effects must be approved by both parties before it can be considered complete.
Zhang Chen and the special effects director murmured, and after a while, they finally announced that the shot had passed.
The next scene is Xiao Wei forcing Pei Rong to drink poison, "You will be the monster, and I will be Mrs. Wang for you~"
Pei Rong agreed and drank it The poison instantly turned into a monster.
He admitted that he killed everyone just to save Wang Sheng’s life.
In the original version of "Painted Skin", Pei Rong only turned into white hair and white face after drinking poison, which was not very scary.
Actually, this has a hidden meaning.
Originally, according to the crew's design, after drinking the poison, Pei Rong's appearance was bald and her face was covered with wrinkles. She really looked as ugly as possible.
But at that time, Zhao Yanzi was a popular movie star in Asia. She was worried that filming like this would affect her image, so she begged the director in various ways.
As an actor, this behavior is definitely very inappropriate.
But Zhao Yanzi was too popular at the time. With all kinds of helplessness, Chen Jiashang agreed to Zhao Wei's plan, and this is how we see the white-haired image.
But of course there is no room for consideration when Zhang Chen talks about it now.
Then, the ugliest Zhou Xun in history was born.
Master Zhou is not Zhao Yanzi, and Zhang Chen is not Chen Jiashang.
Zhang Chen has always had zero tolerance for this kind of behavior.
Pei Rong was misunderstood by everyone, and the soldiers who usually trusted her no longer trusted her.
The people who usually support her also misunderstood her at this time.
Master Zhou has been completely brought in at this time, and the human and the play are one.
She ran through the streets, scaring the people into fleeing.
But he was immediately surrounded by people and hit him with various farm tools and equipment.
In appearance, Pei Rong is a monster with a hateful appearance, and is looked down upon, scolded and even beaten by people.
In his eyes, there was indescribable sadness and grievance.
"Ka~"
Zhang Chen shouted "Ka", and then took the lead in applauding: "What a good performance?"
Master Zhou wore an extremely ugly appearance , then walked towards the monitor with a smile: "Is it okay there?"
Zhang Chen did not hesitate to praise: "You are really a natural actor, with accurate grasp of your heart. Every smile and every frown is a play, and your emotions are expressed well, which is impressive!"
Mr. Zhou rolled his eyes: "You Come less, first two God, I see you used these same words to praise Huang Xiaoming without even changing the words..."
In the past few days, the relationship between the two has become more and more familiar, and their usual conversations are more in the form of jokes. Li Xiaoran, who was watching next to him, was very excited.
Li Xiaoran is an artist under Chang Jihong's banner, and he is a related person who came in.
Chang Jihong generally does not recommend his artists to engage in messy hype, but Li Xiaoran is an exception. Since her debut, there have been various news, such as her ex-boyfriend killing someone for her.
Playing against Fan Xiaopang every day, it was impossible not to have other ideas.
In terms of acting skills, Li Xiaoran is not inferior to Fan Xiaopang.
In terms of external conditions, Li Xiaoran can be regarded as a beauty. She is famous for her cold white skin. She is no worse than Fan Xiaopang.
Then why is Fan Xiaopang the heroine, while she can only play the role of a maid?
From the moment she came to the crew, her mind was very active, thinking about what could happen.
But how full the ideal is, how skinny the reality is.
Director Zhang was almost occupied by Fan Xiaopang, and she couldn't find any chance at all.
Yes, Fan Xiaopang doesn’t care about other people’s opinions at all. He is inseparable from Director Zhang every day, and all he needs to do is announce to the public that she is Mrs. Zhang.
We keep an eye on other outsiders every day and don’t give them any chance at all.
