When talking about the city of Qingdao, what is the first thing that comes to mind?

Do many people think of the phrase "drink beer and eat clams"?

The Tsingtao Beer Festival hasn’t arrived yet, but Qingdao’s seafood and beer do have a unique taste.

Cheng Yu'an watched the early stage special effects of "Along with the Gods" at the Qingdao Studio, which is extremely beautiful. It must be said that the visual effects team put a lot of thought into drawing materials from classical myths and folklore, integrating some modern aesthetics, and the seven trial areas.

The styles are very distinct, and the classic and modern are well integrated, giving people a refreshing feeling.

The crew of "Along with the Gods" will be the first to use the six ultra-high-standard cameras from "The Wandering Earth", vowing to maximize the visual effects of "Along with the Gods".

"We have to quickly decide on the role of Jiang Lin." Visual effects director Shen Yuan urged Cheng Yu'an to quickly decide on the role.

"I originally wanted to cast Chen Kun for this role, but I don't know what he has been doing in the past two years. He has been nagging, not filming every day, and has been practicing some kind of practice." He also had a headache when talking about this role.

A concept movie like "Along with the Gods" will definitely take the all-star route, but there are only so many choices for the Mesozoic generation.

Even if you increase your age by a few years, it would be difficult to choose an actor who is famous and has acting skills that is suitable for the role of Jiang Lin.

Shen Yuan suggested: "How about you ask Xiao Ming if he has time."

Cheng Yu'an thought for a while and found that Xiao Ming's image was suitable, but his Schrödinger acting skills were worrying.

Cheng Yu'an looked at Shen Yuan, and Shen Yuan explained: "He went back to his hometown in Qingdao to rest after attending your wedding. He knew we were preparing a new play here and came to see it often."

"Okay, I'll ask him." In fact, Cheng Yu'an felt that he owed Xiao Ming a bit. "Partners" was rescheduled by himself and he missed the Golden Rooster Award. As a result, he lost his Best Actor Award.

I called Huang Xiaoming and the person on the other end answered the call quickly.

"Are you at home?" Cheng Yu'an asked.

"I'm not in the capital." Huang Xiaoming replied.

"I know you are not in the capital, I mean you are at home in Qingdao."

"Well, how do you know?"

"I'm here at the Oriental Movie Capital. I'll give you an hour. If you can't make it, I'll give it to someone else, Jiang Lin."

"Good brother," Huang Xiaoming stood up at home, "Don't leave, I'll be there soon. Oops, don't leave."

"Hurry up, I have a lot of things to do behind me." Cheng Yu'an smiled and hung up the phone.

Tiangong Yicai Qingdao Studio is currently producing two dramas, "Along with the Gods" and "The Wandering Earth." Cheng Yu'an watched "Along with the Gods" and then reviewed the preparations for "The Wandering Earth."

The world view of "The Wandering Earth" has been set up, and some early visual effects shots have also begun.

"This pilot space station is a bit interesting." It's one thing to see the design drawings, and another thing to see the renderings on the screen, but Cheng Yu'an still frowned, "In terms of the aesthetics of space movies, we are really living in

In Kubrick's Shadow."

Perhaps it was because of his psychology that Cheng Yuan now looks at his Navigator space station. The aesthetic design and some camera movements are full of shadows from "2001: A Space Odyssey".

Shen Yuan also knew: "There is no way, after Kubrick, the only space science fiction is "2001: A Space Odyssey" and others."

Although we can't escape the influence of our predecessors, when it comes to commercial film production, we regard it as a tribute to classics.

Cheng Yu'an looked at the visual effects pictures one by one and either put forward some opinions or discussed the production details with the special effects team.

40 minutes, 45 minutes to be precise, Huang Xiaoming and his agent walked into the door of Tiangong Yicai Studio.

"You're not late."

Cheng Yu'an looked at his watch and said with a smile: "If you were ten minutes late, I would have left." After saying that, he stood up:

"Let's talk in the conference room."

There's not much to say about the character. The script for "Along with the Gods" has already been obtained by insiders.

"What I'm worried about is that you can't suppress Brother Hu and Nazha in terms of image." Brother Hu's makeup and hair will be a little rougher to highlight his status as a warrior, but even so, Brother Hu is still a handsome guy, let alone

Talk about Nazha’s face.

"Will losing weight delay your wedding?"

"No." Huang Xiaoming said continuously, "As a man, a suit is all you need. If you are fatter or thinner, you can wear it like this. Others won't be able to tell."

I'm not a girl, so my makeup and hair will change between fat and thin.

"When is your wedding? I forgot."

"October 8th."

"On the 8th." Cheng Yuan said with a smile: "Then I am a sinner! "Along with the Gods" will be released in October, and you will get married on the 8th. Is this too late? How about forget it? This is only this time in a person's life. I can't let you go.

It’s taken up by time.”

Huang Xiaoming knew he was joking: "If you know you are a sinner, then drink a few more drinks. I have prepared a few bottles of good wine and then we can drink alone." He knew Cheng Yu'an was greedy.

"Stand up and let me take a look."

After hearing this, Huang Xiaoming stood up and showed Cheng Yuan his image.

Cheng Yuan thought for a while and asked, "How much do you weigh now?"

"132 pounds."

Cheng Yu'an was cruel and decided to remove the oil for Huang Xiaoming in advance: "Is there any problem in losing 20 pounds before starting the machine?"

Huang Xiaoming agreed without thinking: "Okay, I will lose weight to 110 before the wedding."

"Shen Yuan, please bring a set of Jiang Lin's clothes for Xiao Ming to put on and let me see."

Jiang Lin is shown in a long coat in the play, making him look tall, handsome and graceful.

Huang Xiaoming changed his clothes. Cheng Yu'an looked at it and almost said, "Let's do this for now. When you lose weight, we will try on the makeup again."

After the makeup test, Cheng Yuan basically confirmed that Huang Xiaoming would play Jiang Lin, and then handed the final script to Huang Xiaoming.

After coming out of the studio, Huang Xiaoming invited Cheng Yuan to sit at his home.

"I have to go back to the capital. I have a lot of things waiting for me." Cheng Yu'an declined.

…………

In order to heat up the market in mid-June and warm up the summer season, the General Administration has taken great pains.

"Collapse" is on the 2nd, "Jurassic World" is on the 10th, "Slay Wolf 2" is on the 18th, and "Divergent 2" is on the 19th.

"Collapse" has indeed played a warm-up role, with first-time domestic sales of 34 million, accounting for 32.7% of the film schedule.

This is a working day on Tuesday.

On the second day, the output was stable, and the revenue was maintained at 34 million yuan. Until Friday, the first wave of movie viewing climax was ushered in, with 50 million yuan collected, and 160 million yuan was collected in two days over the weekend.

The box office in the first week reached 340 million.

This is also because there were no blockbusters that could threaten it during the same period.

On the other hand, Tiantian did not go to North America to promote "Jurassic World". The role she played was not important enough for her to go to North America to support the film. She only filmed "The Great Wall" in China, but I heard that Lao Mouzi was tormented by her.

It's quite annoying.

Cheng Yu'an went to visit the class. Lao Mouzi would not scold the actors, but the people below him were very dissatisfied with Tiantian's performance and complained about her in private.

As a reboot, "Jurassic World" is highly anticipated by dinosaur fans all over the world, but they also have doubts about the film's performance after its release. The previous film failed so badly that Universal had to hide the entire series, and now it has returned the production team.
Chapter completed!
