Chapter 425 Could it be that her identity as Zhao Shengs special guinea pig cannot be hidden?(1/3)

On September 6, Zhao Donghuai drove Xiao Gao, Bingbing and Jennifer Connelly to a seaside in Dabu New Town. They looked at the bridge corridor and exquisite wooden villas built along the sea in front of them, as well as the starting point of the bridge corridor.

Single barrel mailbox.

He immediately laughed and said, "This bridge villa is quite exquisitely and beautifully designed, and the crew of (The Untouchable Lover) shot many scenes here."

"I estimate that after the filming is completed and there is a tourism trend after the release, this cabin and villa will be overwhelmed by the number of tourists it receives."

In two different versions of unreachable lovers, the male and female protagonists write letters to each other and send gifts to each other through the single-tube mailbox outside the villa, communicating across time and space.

Although the house in the North American version is not ugly, in the style of a love movie, the South Korean version has a more literary and artistic atmosphere. Not only does it face the sea with spring flowers blooming, but the architectural style looks more romantic in the shot.

Zhao Donghuai asked the behind-the-scenes team to build the villa in the Korean style, which was also more optimized and looked more fashionable and beautiful.

After all, he has countless villa modeling drawings spanning several eras.

Xiao Gao said excitedly, "The house is very beautiful. It has water, electricity and internet, and it is very comfortable to live in. The three of us are directors. How about filming the scenes in the villa, just the three of us will be contracted?"

"How many days can you stay here by the way?"

Jennifer Connelly also laughed brightly, "Yes, it's like when you were filming (Cast Away) on a desert island. You did all the behind-the-scenes work including makeup, and you and Adjani had a lot of fun there.

Bar?"

Zhao Donghuai stopped the car in front of the villa bridge and got out of the car, "Okay, anyway, there are a lot of daily necessities in the RV. If you don't have enough, you can always go to Taibu or Dakeng Village to replenish them."

The Untouchable Lover has various scenes shot in big cities, whether it's a traffic accident scene, or a white-collar office worker's career struggle, etc.

But in this seaside villa, there are also a lot of scenes in the villa facing the sea when the flowers are blooming in spring.

A house is built to be lived in and used...

During the commentary, he also waved behind him, and a group of props, pan-Asian bodyguards, etc. began to transport filming equipment and various props into the set.

After a while, other members of the crew and the Pan-Asian bodyguards all retreated, leaving at most a group of people to pull the line a few hundred meters away to prevent ordinary people from entering the crew by mistake.

Jennifer Connelly adjusted the lighting props for a while and said with a smile, "Boss, how about you come and see the lights I adjusted?"

Zhao Donghuai walked over and took a look, and saw that the digital camera held by Bingbing was imaging in real time, and the results could be seen on the small screen...

He rubbed Connery's peach with satisfaction and said, "The lighting is beautiful and the picture is beautiful. Not bad. Although you only learned it for a while when you got interested, you are still comparable to a professional lighting master."

Don’t forget that the brain-tonifying ingredients produced by Dongtian cannot increase a person’s upper limit of IQ after nourishing them, but they can maintain your energy state in the third year of high school and college, which is the period when human learning ability is strongest.

Only by persevering and studying hard, Gao Yuanyuan will become a qualified director so quickly after making movies again and again and practice her skills. The same is true for Bingbing.

Connelly is 28 years old, but her learning ability has been maintained. Occasionally, she learns something when the mood strikes, and her efficiency is very fast.

Just like now, the family has to film all the scenes and do all the work in the beach villa, and any one of them can take on many jobs.

Yuanyuan was sitting on the temporary horse stand on the bridge corridor, waving to him happily, "Come on, boss, I'm waiting for you to do my makeup, my dedicated makeup artist."

Zhao Donghuai, "..."

An hour later, Bingbing sat behind the viewfinder and called the card, then happily said, "This section is over, ready for the next one."

Individual performances rely on acting skills!

Needless to say, Zhao Donghuai, even Yuanyuan who used to be a drag on the crew, has been a director so many times and coordinated the entire crew as a director, which has greatly improved her personal acting skills.

At this stage, she has also realized her dream of becoming one of the simple role models in acting.

One shot after another, under a methodical shooting plan, it was not until noon that Winona drove a convertible sports car and parked the sports car at the beginning of the bridge corridor. She also picked up the car from the passenger seat.

A large wooden food box came down, and he smiled as he walked, "Hey, you guys are going to help me promote the Winona fashion brand in the new drama."

"Hey, I took some special ingredients to the Good Luck Lai flagship store and asked a national-level chef to cook them. During the cooking time, the national-level chef was so greedy that he cried..."

"It was the first time I saw a chef that made me cry. It was so funny."

The family stopped working, and Zhao Donghuai walked over to pick up the barrel, "It's not light."

It is normal for (Untouchable Lover) to continue to help her promote fashion brands. The brand image is established step by step in this way. The male and female protagonists in the crew all wear Winona casual clothes.

Winona nodded, "Eight dishes and two soups, both large portions, enough for us to eat. Should we eat inside or on the bridge while enjoying the sea breeze?"

Zhao Donghuai laughed and said, "Come in and eat."

When the crowd moved into the living room of the wooden villa and put out the dishes and waited to eat, Winona suddenly said, "By the way, boss, the science fiction author you asked Sister Zhen to pay attention to, Da Liu, submitted a science fiction novel to the Kowloon Daily

It’s called (Wandering Earth).”

"After today's publication, it seems to have aroused discussion and love among some book fans."

"The Kowloon Daily also said that the screenwriters who have read the entire draft of (The Wandering Earth) all spoke highly of this novel. It is among the top-notch among mainland science fiction authors. Originally, Sister Zhen planned to call you to report.

of."

"After I found out, I stopped by to say, here is the full manuscript. Do you want to take a look?"

Zhao Donghuai said with a hint of surprise, "Give it to me. I'll read the book first and you guys eat first."

Liu wrote "The Wandering Earth" in September 1998? It's not surprising, this was 1998, not 1988...

Since the early 1990s, Liu followed his original habit of contributing articles to the Kowloon Daily News in Mainland China and Hong Kong Island. After his first novel was published in the Kowloon Daily News, Zhao Donghuai paid attention to this name.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! To be honest, this science fiction author has good potential, compared to Ni Ji, an alien who is indecisive in trouble... Well, Ni Ji is pseudo science fiction

, this is a good science fiction expert.

Not only did Qiu Shuzhen pay attention to each of his new works, but he also directly gave him a royalties of two hundred and a thousand words.

Stimulated by the high royalties, Liu was motivated to create vigorously and created The Wandering Earth two years in advance. It is not surprising.

As long as you give enough money, a group of talented people can surprise you first.

The original work of "The Wandering Earth" only has 23,000 words. The original trajectory he submitted to a Mainland (Science Fiction World) magazine only received 2,800 yuan in royalties. This standard is not low for the mainland of the millennium, close to more than 100 words per 1,000 words.

Yuan manuscript fee.

But as early as the early 1990s, Liu's salary at the Hong Kong Kowloon Daily News was 200,000 words. Several science fiction works published in the previous few years gradually increased to 500,000 words.

According to the current net worth, (The Wandering Earth) can also earn 11,500 Hong Kong dollars. Well, the price is still very low, but there is no way. Liu is not a good word reader. Others’ martial arts and science fiction works are only one hundred, two hundred words per thousand words.

, but it can easily reach millions of words.

Liu only produces novels with tens of thousands of words, so his income will definitely be limited.

Even the three-body trilogy that caused a sensation in the world only has a total of over 800,000 words.

After briefly watching "The Wandering Earth", Zhao Donghuai said with emotion, "When you finish eating, call Azhen and tell him that the standard for Liu will be raised to 1,000 words and 1,000 Hong Kong dollars, and then let ATV buy the movie "Little Broken Ball".

The adaptation rights are set at HKD 5 million.”

Winona, who was eating steamed buns and eating vegetables, said in astonishment, "The royalties are only 10,000 yuan, but the copyright is so high? Boss, are you very optimistic about this story?"

Zhao Donghuai nodded and said, "This may be one of the benchmarks of Chinese science fiction. However, if you want to make a good story at this stage, the special effects production is still a little behind, and you have to release the copyright for a few years."

Liu was also miserable. Yuan Ji wrote the first part of The Three-Body Problem in 2006. Before the sensation was so great, a small director bought out the film and television adaptation rights for 100,000 yuan.

At that time, Liu's monthly salary was only 4,000 yuan, but he was knocked unconscious by 100,000 yuan. Then he went round and round. In 2015, he relied on winning international awards. He won a lot of Hugo and Nebula awards, and it exploded...

But the explosion had nothing to do with him at the time. The young director changed hands and sold the copyright that he had held for nearly 10 years to Lin Qi, the boss of Youzu.com, for 120 million!

The copyright was a big mistake. After Youzu obtained the copyright, it failed to operate it because Lynch was the symbol of the high-end business war being poisoned in the 2020s.

Of course Zhao Donghuai must invest in advance to encourage Liu and let him continue to create various good works.

Today's technology is not enough to make the movie "Break Ball". At least it has to be close to the year (Transformers 1) to make "Break Ball" more exciting.

Before he time traveled, he had already seen the movie "The Wandering Earth", which is a benchmark masterpiece of Chinese science fiction in the original circle. Before time traveling, he had also heard that the movie "The Wandering Earth 2" and the "Three Body" TV series were in production.

It's a pity that I wore it before I could watch it...

He doesn't know how the TV series "The Three-Body Problem" went, but "The Wandering Earth 2" should be good. The director is one of the last consciences and bottom lines in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Even the starring cast is not bad either.

It's already 1998. In the list of mainland's richest people, aside from the Zhao family, other rich people also use billions as a unit to calculate their wealth. For example, Wang Dashuotu from eastern Guangdong is also a filmmaker worth more than 2 billion.

But for the 35-year-old Liu, buying out the film and television rights for HK$5 million is a windfall.

After a sumptuous lunch, Winona never left once she arrived, and she also took on some part-time work on the crew. In both versions, the heroines have best friends, and both Bingbing and Winona can guest star as best friends.

………………

Ten days later.

The filming of "Untouchable Lovers" went smoothly. Zhao Donghuai and Yuanyuan, Connery and Winona have visited every corner of the villa these days.

When a new day came and all the shots related to the shooting near the villa were completed, they rushed back to the ATV headquarters to make the next shooting plan.

Sitting behind his desk, waiting for Fan Bingbing to make plans, Zhao Donghuai casually asked Azhen about the progress of the filming of several real blockbusters, whether it was going well or not, etc.

Xiaoxian and Azhen answered very steadily.

(Godzilla 1998), (Resident Evil 1) all happened on Hong Kong Island and were filmed on Hong Kong Island. Only (Pirates of the Caribbean 1) was produced in the Americas. The three movies have been in production for more than half a year, and some

It has been completed and entered into the special effects process.

Some are still being filmed.

After understanding this, Zhao Donghuai nodded casually and let it pass. Azhen then said, "By the way, boss, Ah Xing's (King of Comedy) has completed the film and is sending it to you for review, and please confirm the next schedule."
