Chapter 66 Actors Gather
The three of them walked around, then came to a milk tea shop, sat down and took a break...
Jiangsu Ying looked at Chen Changlin and said, "Director, how long will we take to film this drama?"
“At most three months…”
"So fast?"
Nazha interjected: "My brother has always been very fast in filming, and he said efficiency is very important..."
“What about the quality?”
"I think so. The director's bad movies are of course related to the speed and slowness of his filming. However, three months are a more reasonable cycle under the premise of full preparation..."
"How long has the "Demon Robbery" been prepared?"
"It's about half a year..." After pausing, he gave a popular science: "This is called a U-shaped structure. The preparation period and the later stage are particularly long, and the shooting time is relatively short..."
"Is it the Hollywood way to work?"
"…It's almost the same, but most regular crews in China do this..."
"Director, do you want to go to Hollywood in the past?"
"No... there is not only Hollywood movies in the world, my goal has always been Chinese movies!"
Nazha interjected: "Then...what if Marvel invites you?"
"It's the same for anyone to invite me. The Chinese market has huge potential and the size is here. Our size is three times that of North America! And as the national status improves, the international influence of Chinese films will also increase... So, why should I develop in Hollywood?"
Jiangsu Ying stared at Chen Changlin with a little admiration...
Chen Changlin glanced at him a few times, putting his long hair lazily on his shoulders, and with the flaming red lips, it was really charming!
Lao Hu is really lucky...
...
As the saying goes, doing things is ineffective, and doing things is useless.
There is one thing in any industry: listen to the boss.
Whoever pays for the money and who is the capitalist will listen to whom.
The same is true in the film and television industry, but media reports that the public's attention is mainly focused on celebrities and famous directors...
In many cases, the right to speak in the shooting process of a film is in the hands of senior producers. The producer will not let the director work by himself unless you are a real big director, or you participate in the investment and produce yourself.
Even famous directors have many projects that are forced to give up~
Lang Howard filmed "The Tower of Darkness" and asked for a high budget, but he still couldn't film it;
Brad Bird asked for $200 million to do "1906" and then had a frustration with Disney;
Including Ridley Scott, who has always wanted to film "Tripoli", but the preliminary preparations have been continuously high, the film company is overwhelmed and has to give up...
But the specific situation is analyzed...
First of all, he has the absolute right to speak for Chen Changlin's project;
Secondly, Jiangsu Ying is not irreplaceable!
Then...why use her?
Because of acting?
What a joke?
Maybe, she just wanted a sense of security and went to bed politely!
For many people in the circle, going to bed is almost like I'm giving you a cup...
Some kind of social need!
Yes, Chen Changlin always knows that for the quality of a work, the actor's acting skills are more important than bed skills!
But if you have good acting skills and kung fu, it’s not impossible to experience it, do you think?
Unfortunately, Chen Changlin was very busy...
Once he enters work, all he thinks about is work, especially with such a large investment in "The Magic Thieves Group", the possibility of failure is not allowed!
...
Liang Jiahui was quite surprised when he received the invitation from "The Magic Thieves Group", and was surprised and confused...
Because he has no intersection with Changlin Film and Television at all!
The film and television industry is completely a circle of contacts, and many project invitations happen at dinner parties - no one is irreplaceable!
In the past two years, Liang Jiahui's roles have basically been related to Huayi - in addition to cooperation in Hong Kong circles...
His agency contract is in the hands of Sister Hua!
I just can't understand why Chen Changlin looked for him...
Because of popularity?
What a joke, Liu Dehua is still here, he will always be the first choice in the market...
Pay?
Could it be that Chen Changlin's project is short of money?
Although he couldn't figure out the reason, he was still very happy to star in Chen Changlin's movie, and his role was the male lead!
The organizer of the Demon Thieves...
As for the script...
Very neat thief + revenge type, the two opposing parties - the thief and the villain. The thief is usually smart and witty, while the villain is fooled...
But to be honest, Liang Jiahui has acted in "Double Eyes" and "The Underworld". The script of "The Demonic Thieves" does not have much amazing things...
After studying the script, I roughly knew what kind of state I should be in. At the end of June, he set out to Shenzhen to serve the crew of "The Magic Thieves"...
Most of the actors in the crew know about it, but most of them have never worked together...
In fact, most of the actors in the "Demonic Thieves" crew met for the first time...
There are exceptions. When Chen Changlin introduced Deng Chao to Xu Zheng, he accidentally learned that the two had actually collaborated, "Love Call Transfer 2"!
However, the two of them did not directly compete in that scene.
They are obviously not a member of the same place, and they can't tell from their attitude towards pants. Although Deng Chao usually smiles when doing variety shows, he is really principled in his bones, even if he is embarrassed, his original intention remains unchanged.
The one who is positive and honest - posted on Weibo "Chicken Thief and Art".
Xu Zheng should be gentler. He let him be strong. The breeze blows on the hills. "Lost in Thailand" is a big hit, and his pants are sour. Congratulations to Xu Zheng for winning the box office...
Xu Zhengze is modest and low-key, and tolerant at all times...
...
"We welcome Brother Jiahui!"
In the hotel next to the hotel, the starring actors of the "Devil Thieves" crew gathered together and were the last one to arrive...
No, Teacher Jin Shijie hasn't come yet, he has to wait first...
“…so grand…”
"We'll be relieved if you come!"
Zhao Shan stood up to help introduce: "This is Naza... This is Jiangsu Ying and Wang Kai, all of which are signed actors from our company. This time I can work with everyone..."
The three people who were named after the name quickly stood up with their glasses...
Toast.
As a junior, it is also a normal etiquette to drink with seniors...
"No need to fix these things, we have to work together." Chen Changlin interrupted Zhao Shan: "Let's have a drink together!"
Everyone raised their glasses, and they basically stopped trying it out - the shooting will officially start tomorrow morning, so you can't get drunk!
"I'll say first, "The Magic Thieves" is the first time I directed such a large-scale movie. It is inevitable that there will be insufficient experience. My requirements are very harsh. If you can't control yourself and lose your temper, don't take it to your heart."
Deng Chao cooperated very well: "Don't worry, for the sake of the show!"
The atmosphere was pretty good, everyone was communicating with each other's daily life. Then Chen Changlin suddenly thought of "East and West" and couldn't help but ask Liang Jiahui: "Brother Jiahui, how did you think of the woman dressed in "East and West"? That's amazing!"
Prince Duan in "East and West"...
The part of "Two Swallows" cannot be surpassed!
Chen Changlin asked a serious question, but Deng Chao, Xu Zheng, Chen Xiao, and Wang Kai all laughed...
Maybe it's a confusing picture...
Red-clothed singer style!
Liang Jiahui explained seriously: "Actually, I wanted to play Joey Wong, but that day, Zuxian couldn't come, so the director changed the plot, and then Leslie Cheung made up a paragraph with me. "Two Flying Swallows" was because Leslie Cheung had always wanted to add this song to the plot... Of course, in order to match the plot, he also composed new lyrics."
Chapter completed!
