Chapter 525 I am invincible in the world (4k)
The public opinion dispute about Mo Yan has been temporarily calmed down, and many major media and some news platforms have intentionally ignored the related news.
Only some discussions are still available on the Internet, but the voice is relatively small.
Because there is no melon to watch for the time being, Chen Linfeng still focused on the preparations for the movie.
Peter did a good job in Los Angeles, and the casting of the actor is basically over.
On the 15th, he received a call from Chen Kaige, mainly the main plot of the subsequent movie.
As for the decline of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the time period was basically locked in the Xuanzong Dynasty.
Chen Kaige thought of a post-level perspective of time and space, which is the perspective of people who recall later, recalling the "shen" of the past, and then using the current situation as a setting. "So what are your thoughts?" Chen Linfeng asked expectantly. This angle is good.
"Use a case to discuss the Tang Emperor and Yang Guifei of that year,"
Chen Kaige said, "When thinking of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Yang Guifei should be the most typical impression. To a certain extent, this is also a business card of the prosperous Tang Dynasty." Chen Linfeng, who was looking forward to failing, was speechless , isn’t this going on the path of “The Legend of Demon Cat” again?
"How did you think of shooting like this?"
"There is a novel called "Shaman Konghai". I think it's not bad. It contains content about the weather of the Tang Dynasty. I came from it. Part of the content was extracted. "
"What are you talking about "Shaman Konghai: The Tang Ghost Banquet"?" "
"Xiao Chen, have you read this novel too?"
"I have read it."
The years in the 2000s were the era when Chen Linfeng read the most books, and he had really read this neon book. novel.
Chen Kaige said in surprise, "Last time I heard you say it, I thought of this story. I feel it should be worth a shot."
"But in other novels, there are more Writing suspense, spell battles, and illusion duels, this doesn't match what you just said."
"Uh, you can adapt it appropriately." Chen Kaige said a little embarrassedly.
You changed your inappropriate life, and you are not as good as the foreign one.
"There are countless novels about the Tang Dynasty in China, and there are many good ones. And as a Chinese, who has not yet imagined the Tang Dynasty? It's better to slowly accumulate scripts by yourself, why did you choose this one? Neon’s novels are gone, so you won’t be interested in Neon Market.”
“Uh…”
“No, do you really think so?”< br>
"This is all by the way. If I can take care of the neon market, wouldn't it be better?"
"But if you change this way, it's equivalent to removing the essence of the novel. No, the original party of Neon people will not scold you to death, they will greatly influence public opinion. "
Works with original novels must consider the ideas of the original party.
Chen Linfeng remembers that "The Legend of the Demon Cat" in his previous life had a bad reputation in Neon, and it was the same thing to change the original work.
Using neon actors, and then there are relatively few scenes, which involve false propaganda and are also scolded very much.
"I think you should think more about it. This kind of behavior won't win much box office." "Well, that's it." Chen Kaige understood that Xiao Chen really disagreed with this script. "That's better, Xiao Chen, give me an idea," Chen Linfeng thought about it and thought he could talk.
"When it comes to the business card of the Tang Dynasty, poets like Li Bai and Du Fu are more typical, especially Li Bai, whose poems almost represent the atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty."
"So, I think it is more appropriate for these people to focus on the perspective and then unfold the story."
Chen Linfeng roughly described the plot of "Thirty Thousand Miles of Chang'an" in his previous life.
This animated movie actually has its shortcomings, but because it has a good description of the Tang Dynasty's weather, it has a good evaluation.
If the script is further improved in this life, the film should be good.
"For thousands of years, Chinese people have always wanted to return to that highlight era. So on the screen, what scene best represents that highlight moment?"
"I think from Wang Li and Gao Cen to the Eight Immortals in the Drinking Festival, when the stars gather together, it is the real highlight moment.
One whoever sees that scene will immediately understand.
The prosperous Tang Dynasty is here! "
Chen Linfeng did not mention any specific words such as lenses, pictures, and lighting, but when he talked about this paragraph, Chen Kaige truly felt that prosperity Tang weather.
Chen Kaige sighed in his heart, "Is this the Tang Dynasty in the hearts of young people?"
"Well, I probably understand." Chen Kaige said, "You think of this story. I will first find someone to write the script. If you have any questions in the future, I will contact you to communicate with you. What do you think? "
"Director Chen, you're going to be the one who can't help me." "Haha, who made you the most powerful screenwriter in China now?" "
"Okay Yes, but I also have conditions for exchange."
"You said."
"The crew will start filming at that time, and I will stuff a few students in. You have to help bring the area. What do you think?"
"Okay, let's just say it. "
"One word is determined."
Hang the phone, Chen Linfeng was in a good mood.
Not only did he have a director tool, he made movies he wanted to watch, but he also found a place for internship for students.
Chen Kaige not only talks about other things, but his skills are really great in terms of the picture and the camera.
Chen Linfeng has been improving his level and still dare not say that he has surpassed this person.
"What did Director Chen tell you?" Liu Qianqian only heard the second half of the content and asked curiously.
She was holding the newly peeled orange in her hand and wanted to send him something to eat, but she didn't expect to hear gossip.
"He wants to make a new movie, but he is a little uninspired, so he can come up with advice." "Ah?" Liu Qianqian was shocked, "Isn't he very arrogant? How could he come up with advice?" "It's been hit," Chen Linfeng became very imposing. "This is a must-have to mention your husband's great achievements..."
Liu Xixi didn't want to hear his sarcastic performance, so she just made a move. Gagging, changing the topic.
"Is "The Shocking Demons" about to start?"
"Well," Chen Linfeng swallowed the orange in his mouth, "The preparations are basically completed. In a few days, all the actors from the beautiful country will be recruited and the filming will be turned on."
Speaking of this, he I immediately remembered something.
"After a while, do you still have to go to Beautiful Country to participate in the new season of "The Walking Dead" promotion?"
"It's still a week."
" >"This is a coincidence. By then, it will be almost the time for the crew to start the filming."
"What should I do?" Liu Qianqian asked worriedly. "It's okay, you didn't have any scenes in the early stage," Chen Linfeng thought for a while, and there was no conflict in essence.
Yes, it really takes time to conflict, Sister Mei must have mentioned it a long time ago.
She never makes any mistakes.
"The Walking Dead" is about to be released in its third season and is about to enter its peak moment.
If Chen Linfeng remembers correctly, the entire series has gradually improved from this season to the 6th season, which are the best-known seasons.
It was not until the seventh season that the character played by Liu Qianqian died and began to go downhill.
I don’t know if the female character played by Qianxi in this life will die.
Chen Linfeng actually wants to see some changes. For the crew, maybe it will really make Xixi stick to the end.
After all, as the most popular character in the entire series, she has developed smoothly in the film industry and is considered the biggest actor in the entire crew.
The screenwriter has been adding drama to her.
This can be seen from the script. Since the second season, Xixi has become more and more scenes.
According to her, the third season is still increasing.
It's really a bit of a strong person. It means changing from a popular character to a protagonist, at least one of the protagonists.
The interesting point of American dramas is also here. The screenwriter has a great role, and the plot will also affect the characters in the drama due to offline situations.
In the evening, lying on the bed, Chen Linfeng told Liu Qianqian about her guess, which scared her.
This means, she can't continue to shoot as a cow and horse.
If it's like "Friends", it's too painful.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
The next morning, when Chen Linfeng got up, he found that Qianxi's sleeping face was frowning.
In the morning, Liu Qianqian got up.
Chen Linfeng was told that she had a nightmare.
In her dream, she really filmed ten seasons of "The Walking Dead", and not only did she film various spin-offs and sequels later.
In the future, I will be in conflict with this drama.
"If this is true, I will definitely bite you to death first." Liu Qianqian said viciously.
At the same time, white teeth were exposed, indicating that the weapon was ready.
It would be hell to make a TV series that would be a lifetime of filming.
Ah this.
Chen Linfeng thought about it, but he couldn't laugh.
17th.
Chen Linfeng welcomed Pitt at home and several major actors from "The Shocking Demons".
The most core actor, the head of the "Four Knights of the Apocalypse", was played by Chen Linfeng himself.
The other three are Woody Harrison (hypnosis), Liu Xixi and Toby Maguire.
In addition, he found Benedict and Cobbish Modes to play the roles of the two roles: Sheriff and Border Police.
Both of these are actors with low prices at present.
Needless to say, without the role of Sherlock, although Chu Xuan was used as a supplement, a movie is relatively thin, and its overall development is even worse than in previous lives, and the pay is not yet Put it up.
Although Kobesmodes performed well in "Avengers" (Agent Hill), he was just a fledgling and was considered a familiar but not famous type for the audience.
Chen Linfeng chose these two people, both of which highlighted one of them was extremely cost-effective.
Peter introduced several actors to Chen Linfeng, and mentioned their resumes and audition performances.
In fact, the audition video was sent to Chen Linfeng for watching, but on this occasion, he still cooperated and listened carefully.
Woody Harrison and Toby Maguire were both invited by Chen Linfeng before.
During the audition, both of them performed well.
After all, he is a veteran actor, and the role itself is not difficult. As long as the image and temperament are in line with it, there will be no problem.
Then he turned to Benedict.
This actor who has been attracted by luck now has developed in a normal way.
Although he lost the opportunity to "Detective Sherlock", Chu Xuan was also very attracted to fans after getting the opportunity to "Infinite World". "Benny, long time no see." "Director Chen, I'm glad to be able to work with you again." Benedict shook his hand solemnly.
All the actors have seen them one by one.
Chen Linfeng asked, "Have you read all the scripts?"
"I have read them, and I have already remembered the lines." Everyone nodded.
Chen Linfeng nodded with satisfaction. This is why he likes to use mature actors, and it is really easy to use.
Today, we mainly meet each other first and get to know each other's personalities.
The few people in the "Shocking Demons" team are also new teams. In terms of setting, there is no need to cultivate feelings and familiarity in advance.
It’s just that, Chen Linfeng needs to explain some requirements in advance.
"According to the schedule, you can ask for leave if you have something to do, you are not allowed to be late or leave early without reason, because alcoholism is not allowed to pass, especially flour, in China, it is absolutely not allowed to do so. Yes, once discovered, it is not a problem of dismissal, but a police call to send it in."
Chen Linfeng explained the rules in advance, in Hollywood, he has encountered similar things, and has heard of them. Many are not allowed to appear in China.
This is actually the situation he is most worried about and may happen.
Several people agreed quickly, without any sign of embarrassment.
Whoever can join director Chen’s crew is not for the popularity of the famous and popular, and they will try their best to restrain some strict requirements.
Chen Linfeng also started this ugly thing, and then he returned to a kind attitude.
After meeting several actors, only Pete was left.
He reported on some of the preliminary preparations.
"How many people are here with you this time?"
"In addition to a few main actors, according to your requirements, there are also several roles with heavy roles, and others will depend on the follow-up situation."
Most of the supporting actors are waiting in Hollywood, with only a few People will fly to this side of the country.
Specifically, adjustments will be made according to the shooting situation.
The filming location of "The Shocking Demons" is the main feature of the one that is cheaper.
Most of the scenes are in China, and the domestic venues and labor are much cheaper.
Where a few foreigners choose to shoot in Hollywood, they can save transportation and accommodation costs and reduce a lot of trouble.
Previously, "Inception" has confirmed that filming in China can save a lot of money.
The movie changed from 2D in previous lives to 3D, and the special effects have also been greatly improved, but the cost in the end has decreased.
It not only causes the reason why the special effects of the divine beasts are cheap, but also saves a lot of money on the crew's expenses in this regard.
The comparison is still very obvious after making the accounts like this.
Therefore, even if we know that transferring the filming location may help improve China's film industry, we will not care about it.
The investor ignores this, which can greatly reduce costs and will not affect the effect of the finished product.
Isn't this the best way?
Disney has no objection.
Hollywood also pays attention to cost reduction and efficiency improvement. If it cannot increase efficiency, it is mostly a good thing to reduce costs.
This time, the newly joined Warner had no objection.
They even conducted a survey to explore whether this model is sustainable.
If it is feasible, then there will be a new path in the future.
In 2012, although the top leaders shouted the slogan of "returning to Asia-Pacific", the entire upper class began to pay attention to China's competitiveness.
But on Hollywood, well...
It’s not that I look down on Chinese movies, but I am truly invincible in Hollywood.
