Chapter 88 If you want to learn this, you should have told me earlier (14)
Chen Linfeng took a look and saw that this was not Fang Hua, the producer of the sequel to Journey to the West.
He said in surprise, "Brother Fang, are you promoted? Congratulations."
Fang Hua served as the producer of the sequel to Journey to the West in 1999.
The TV series is a hit, and everyone who participates can benefit from it.
Now Fang Hua is working as a producer at China International Television Corporation, and he can also be responsible for a major drama like "Lotus Lantern". He is obviously promoted and takes on important responsibilities.
The two stood and chatted for a while, and then everyone took their seats.
In fact, the fact that the producer Fang Hua appears here and is so kind has already shown that the producer needs to change the script, otherwise he can just call back Chen Linfeng's suggestion.
After all, Chen Linfeng only asked the director for suggestions in private, and did not say that he had to change the script. It was so troublesome that he couldn't get off the stage.
Sure enough, Fang Hua, as the producer, and Li Gongda, the producer, set the tone from the beginning.
The script can be changed, and it must be changed in the direction of linking it with the sequel to Journey to the West.
However, considering that filming is about to start, the script must be changed as much as possible without affecting the shooting. At the same time, the scenes that have been built must not be abandoned, and better effects must be achieved as much as possible.
Just like Party A in later generations, they both want, want, and want.
However, the investors still know the situation of the front-line crew after all, and finally mentioned that if there are other requirements, they can be raised as soon as possible on the spot.
The chief screenwriter Jiannian and another screenwriter Li Hongwei looked at each other, and both noticed the displeasure in the other's eyes.
Yes, who would normally want to do this? The script was changed before filming started.
Nine Years said with a bitter look on his face, "It can be changed, but the original plan has already started shooting today. It's really too late."
Yu Shengming suggested that Chen Linfeng He also joined the team of screenwriters. With him as a great writer and also the provider of plot changes, the speed of changes should be much faster.
I have been afraid of this for nine years.
The status of the two is very different. Chen Linfeng participated in the screenwriting of the sequel to Journey to the West. He has also participated in the screenwriting of some dramas sporadically in recent years, and the stories he wrote have been adapted by Hollywood movies.
From the perspective of screenwriter alone, Chen Linfeng can already be regarded as a famous screenwriter, not to mention his achievements in the field of literary publishing.
If Chen Linfeng also joins in, who will be the leader and who will be the auxiliary?
I don’t think so, he is going to make a wedding dress for someone.
Chen Linfeng saw the problem and took the initiative to say, "Brother of nine years, I only participated in the screenwriting to speed up the progress. When the time comes, my name can be placed at the end of the publicity and screenwriting column."< br>
After nine years, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree. In fact, this was just a comfort to him.
In the film and television industry, everyone only cares about fame. If you are famous, others will think you have made a lot of contributions. At that time, the industry will only think that this book was mainly written by Chen Linfeng.
Especially when it comes to changing the script during filming, the news will definitely not be sealed and spread to the outside world. Whoever provided the main ideas of the script in the later period must be well aware of it.
The author of the original script has agreed to it for nine years. Of course, Li Hongwei couldn't bear the pressure and readily agreed to make changes based on the opinions of the two screenwriters.
As for the issue of coordinating the screenwriter, Yu Shengming mentioned another issue.
“When we were doing the design before, we didn’t think about the issue of linkage with the sequel to Journey to the West. The art style was not unified, and there were some inconsistencies in the way of service.”
He turned to Fang Hua and said, "Mr. Fang, I need your support on this issue. Invite Ma Yunhong and Wang Xizhong, who worked together in the sequel, to continue to serve as art directors and styling designers."
Fang Hua Nod in agreement.
"The most important thing is that since we want to link up, we have to do it thoroughly. For the role of Sun Wukong, I prefer to invite Zhang Lingtong to play."
Is it really a change?
Chen Linfeng looked surprised. Looking at the expressions of the two screenwriters, it was obvious that they had not heard of it.
The temporary change of actors would cause a bit of a fuss.
However, Fang Hua and Li Gongda were not surprised at all.
This is what it should be. There is no more suitable actor for the role of Sun Wukong than him.
Since we have greater ambitions, want to continue to build the world view in this drama, and want to ride on the popularity of the sequel to Journey to the West, then of course it is Zhang Lingtong who should play Sun Wukong.
Due to the past incident of Chen Shantong bringing Zhang Lingtong into the crew through extra money, these parties also knew how to impress Zhang Lingtong.
Yu Shengming said to Li Gongda, "Producer Li, you should bear more of the possible additional expenses." Li Gongda nodded in agreement.
Following up, Yu Shengming raised some issues about costumes and props, including the new publicity plan.
The behind-the-scenes staff of several crews discussed it together for a long time.
Finally, seeing that no one had any doubts, everyone dispersed.
As a producer, Li Gongda also has to communicate with China Television Wuxi Film and Television Company about copyright issues.
Fortunately, they are all brother companies under Huayang Television, and he came from there. This is easier to coordinate. At worst, we can just bring them in.
Yu Shengming told the assistant director and set manager to adjust the shooting plan. In the first half of the script, content that did not require major changes should be shot earlier.
Chen Linfeng first followed the two screenwriters to their rooms to discuss changes to the script.
He mainly provided ideas and talked a lot, and the subsequent specific changes were made by the two original screenwriters.
After a brief communication, Chen Linfeng ran to the set and just followed the photographer.
The scene in the TV series is the scene where Erlang Shen captures the Third Holy Mother, and he does not need to participate.
It’s a good time to study.
The photographer felt the person standing behind him and did not dare to say anything.
Yu Shengming knew at a glance that this kid was going to do the trick he had secretly learned in the past.
It was just more subtle back then, not as blatant as it is now.
He shook his head, lowered his head and continued to ponder the scene he had just taken.
The director didn't say anything, and the other staff just pretended not to see it.
In the end, the photographer couldn't bear it anymore. It was a bit scary to have such a big shot standing behind.
So he took the initiative to explain his shooting techniques.
It is intended to show that you are working hard.
While listening, Chen Linfeng corresponded with what he learned in the photography class, and asked from time to time to see if his understanding was correct.
“If you want to learn this, tell me earlier.”
The photographer breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that people were not happy with him and wanted to find fault with him.
Although he is considered a good player in the industry, he does not think that this person will compete with him in the future.
On the contrary, if someone's family runs a film and television company, they may make a living under others in the future and cultivate their relationship in advance, so there is nothing wrong with it.
That’s why the photographer taught me hard and sometimes even let Chen Linfeng get started with simple shots.
The other actors looked strange at first, but then they got used to it.
In this way, he went to the scene to gain experience during the day, and was responsible for assigning tasks and checking acceptance to the two screenwriters in the morning and evening.
It was a very fulfilling few days.
A few days later, it was Chen Linfeng's turn, and he, the protagonist, finally started filming.
This scene is about Chen Xiang, who failed to pay attention to the lectures and deserted the private school. He was caught by his teacher and asked to recite a poem.
Chen Linfeng's acting arsenal is already rich in juvenile roles.
He was chewing on the poem while reciting it, and his eyes would glance behind his teacher from time to time. There were classmates there, holding up textbooks to help him cheat.
However, his level is really not good enough. He occasionally saw it twice and could not memorize it smoothly.
Chen Linfeng scratched his head and vividly displayed an ancient student who was ignorant and incompetent.
Yu Shengming was a little silent after reading it, with question marks on his forehead.
What has this kid been doing these past few years? Why has his acting skills suddenly become so good?
