20. A new way of shooting martial arts?
Liu Yan was very happy at this time, especially the envious eyes of the other two agents made her very enjoyable.
You should know that she has been in the industry for nearly ten years and has only become an agent in recent years. She has led some people, but none of them have improved much.
Xu Mingjie and Xu Xiaoxiao are the two best artists in her hands, and the company also valued them more and gave her some resources.
But these are far from enough. Now she wants this short film to go to the company to get resources for Xu Mingjie and Xu Xiaoxiao.
Now that she has such an opportunity, she will of course ask for more resources for her artists, and her income is closely related to the artists' income.
Lin Li was also standing here at this time. This was the opportunity he asked Cheng Guochao to get, because he also wanted to see the effect of the action designed by Xu Shi to shoot it into a short film.
Although Lin Li was not bad when shooting on the spot, he didn't expect the effect to be so good. He knew that the action scenes could be shot like this for the first time.
Cheng Guochao looked at Xu Shi eagerly and said, "Brother, I am really grateful this time. I won't say much about the extra words. When I come back from there, I will definitely ask you to have a good meal."
Xu Shi smiled and said, "Okay, I wish you all your wishes come true."
"Haha, thank you." Cheng Guochao laughed. This time he had great confidence in convincing those investors, for nothing else, because of the effect of this short film.
Moreover, the biggest investor in his movie is Mingyue Film and Television, which has a strong appreciation level and is also very accurate in grasping the market.
He believed that he didn't need to say anything more, just show the short video to these people, and they would agree to their capital increase requirements.
Without saying too much, Cheng Guochao quickly left with the producer with the short film. They needed to discuss this matter quickly. Every day delayed is a lot of money.
Liu Yan also took Xu Mingjie and Xu Xiaoxiao away with full expectations. They also needed to go to the company to get more resources.
In fact, the best time is when the movie is released, and only when the box office and reputation are rising will we better convince the leaders.
But Liu Yan couldn't wait, and she also had her own plans in her heart. When she wanted resources now, Xu Mingjie and Xu Xiaoxiao would definitely have better sense of her.
If the movie is released, the company is likely to change their agent, which will cause great losses to her.
Also, she is actually a little worried that this movie may not be really successful, after all, no one can say that her movie will definitely be a big hit.
So she thought about getting some benefits in advance. Even if the movie was not as popular as she thought, she could make a profit.
As for whether the company will recover resources because of this, she is not worried at all. Xu Mingjie and Xu Xiaoxiao are still young and have a lot of room for growth. The company will not make a fuss about this little thing.
Xu Shi suddenly became quiet, and no one wanted to chat with him. Zhao Kai and Sun Min were all looking at him with a gaze, but they were not familiar with Xu Shi, so they wanted to detour.
Of course, the most important thing is to look at the results of Cheng Guochao. If Cheng Guochao convinced investors, it means that the movie really has hope of becoming popular, then they can make up their minds to ask Xu Shi.
But if there is no other way, then they will not need to ask Xu Shi for help.
Moreover, these action scenes are not as simple as they seem, and many of them are quite difficult. The key is that Xu Shi is very serious in this regard.
They saw Xu Mingjie with their own eyes and didn't know how many times they had been scolded by Xu Shixun. Moreover, Xu Shi did not show mercy when he was training Xu Mingjie. They just shot a short film and saw that Xu Mingjie's body had several scars and his soreness had never disappeared.
It can be seen that shooting such fighting scenes is very hard. If they can achieve corresponding results, they are willing to suffer some hardships, but if they don’t work, then there is no need for them to suffer such hardships.
Lin Li also had the same idea. If it succeeded, then he would go to Xu Shi to learn some skills. But if it didn't work, there was no need to give up this old face.
Cheng Guochao's speed was still very fast. He arrived at Mingyue Film and Television's headquarters at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Cheng Guochao had already communicated with the production department in advance and had arranged time there, so Cheng Guochao came directly to the conference room.
Before long, Wang Hao, the production manager, came in with a group of people. After sitting down separately, Wang Hao did not talk nonsense and asked directly: "Director Cheng, your shooting progress during this period is very slow and has been delayed a lot of time. In addition, you said you want to increase your investment, I want to hear your reasons."
In fact, if Cheng Guochao was their Mingyue's old man, and he had also brought them a lot of benefits, they ignored them and had decided on things that had been decided again. It would be so simple that they wanted to increase their capital again.
Cheng Guochao obviously knew the situation and said without nonsense, "This time I discovered the disadvantages of the previous martial arts scenes during the filming process. Now I have found a solution, so I hope to increase my investment."
As soon as these words were said, many people looked at each other. They have worked in the film and television industry for many years and are naturally very familiar with film and television.
Of course they know about martial arts scenes, which can be said to be a kind of useless food, and it is a pity to throw away the food without any taste.
But they don’t believe who can solve the shooting situation of martial arts scenes. It has been so many years. Although it has improved for a while, it soon became silent.
Martial arts scenes have high requirements for actors and they will be injured at any time. Although some shots can also be used as stand-in, even so, the injury rate is very high.
In addition, the injury rate of Wu Di has been too high over the years, and even deaths have occurred. The external salary is not too high, so the compensation can only be said to be average, and some people do not provide compensation at all.
This has made the martial arts industry increasingly declining, and many actors are unwilling to act in martial arts scenes. Not only does it take time and effort, they are injured more and the money they get is the same, and they are even scolded by movie fans. This makes martial arts scenes more and more difficult to shoot.
Not to mention that the shooting is done, it is already very good if you can barely finish the shooting and not revealing too many flaws.
Of course, with the development of special effects, more and more martial arts scenes have begun to make big moves, put on a few poses, and then the rest are solved with special effects. Although this is a bit awkward, it is acceptable.
As long as the actors' acting skills are online and their appearance is good, many viewers still buy it.
