When new members join the group, they first go to the hotel to stay.

The staff arranged to inform the actors about their living, travel, diet and other life issues, which is why Zuo Xiao, the deputy production director in charge of logistics, was asked to pick up Fulong.

Of course, the above reasons are only part of it.

After all, you can just hire any staff member. The reason why Zuo Xiao took action personally was mainly to show the importance he attached to Fulong.

Zuo Le's biological sister.

This title is more valuable than crew producer, and Zuo Xiao is still a young girl, so it is relatively easier to communicate with the actors.

Therefore, the task of arranging big-name stars for the "Qin Empire" crew fell on Zuo Xiao.

Zuo Xiao also did a good job and was highly praised by her immediate boss, the production director. The big names she greeted also expressed their satisfaction.

Regardless of whether these people are sincere or fake, if they achieve good results, Zuo Xiao has made a meritorious deed.

After making arrangements for his daily life, the lower left corner took out a few forms from his bag and handed them to Fulongdao.

"This is your work schedule. The last one has a Fetion QR code. This is a staff member who is specially aligned with you. You can ask your assistant to scan it to add friends."

If you have any needs, you can contact the other party directly, and he will notify you as soon as possible if there are any new arrangements or changes by the crew."

Fulong took a look at his watch and said: "The makeup will be finalized in the morning tomorrow, the script workshop will be held in the afternoon, and the shooting will begin the day after tomorrow, right?"

"Yes, someone will contact you directly and take you to try on makeup." Zuo Xiao replied.

For example, in some costume dramas or dramas where the actor himself has changed a lot, the actor's makeup does not just come to the set and start acting.

The process during this period is very complicated.

First of all, actors need to send their height, weight, body measurements, head circumference and other physical data to the crew.

The crew then specially customizes costumes and props based on the actor's figure and temperament, as well as plot style, era background and other factors.

Therefore, actors have a fitting before filming, and they try it on with real people to see the effect. If it fits, everyone is happy, but if it doesn't, the costume department and props department will have to make modifications.

Not only the costumes and props, but also the makeup needs to be tried on.

The makeup artist works with the stylist and the art department to find the version that best suits the actor and the character based on the actor's temperament and image.

It's okay for male actors, there are only a few things that can be adjusted, but it's more complicated for actresses.

Not to mention, Zhen Huan in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" has nearly 150 sets of various jewelry and clothing combinations, and more than 50 sets as spares, plus styling, makeup, and accessories.

Wait for matching

Tsk tsk...

Let's put it this way, if Shui Miaomiao tried on all Zhen Huan's styles in one go, it would have taken more than a week to apply foundation, and she would still be sleepless.

Of course, it is definitely not possible for all the actors to try it on. We will try the most common costumes and costumes used in the early shooting first, and then we can try them slowly in batches.

The same is true for Fulong. The costumes and styles to try are also commonly used and complex ones that will be shot soon.

For example, his Duke Qin's dress is very difficult to tailor. If there is something wrong, you have to change it quickly. If you delay it until the checkpoint, you will find it wrong again, and it will be too late.

Fulong was also an old actor and was no stranger to such a process. However, his assistant who had been with him for just six months was a little confused. After Zuo Xiao left, he said with some confusion,

"Trying on makeup? How come we didn't do it before when we filmed the movie "Qingling Belle"?"

"It's not that I didn't do it, it's that I didn't try it out a little bit, and then modified it according to the actors. It's almost enough to put on makeup before filming.

"Qingling Belle" is pretty good. If it were an ordinary pheasant crew, they would just give you a costume and a hood. Try on the makeup? You want to try it on, but it's troublesome."

The agent curled his lips, complained and told the truth, then looked at the assistant and said.

"Do you know why all good actors want to join the crew of Shanhe? Regardless of their achievements, their professional attitude alone makes people feel at ease. They are also practical and energetic when acting."

Looking at his assistant's thoughtful look, Fulong shook his head.

"Okay, we've been on a plane and in a car all the way. We're all very tired. Let's go back and rest. We still have work tomorrow."

The agent nodded, told Fulong to sleep well, and took the assistant to their room.

…………

The next day, the three Fulongs followed the staff who had come to contact them early and came to a dressing room dedicated to the leading actors.

After struggling all morning, I finally determined the basic shape of Fulong. There may be slight adjustments later, but this is roughly what it looks like.

The costumes and props are almost up to standard, and the few issues they have are minor issues.

However, the heads of the costume and art departments of "The Qin Empire" also informed Fulong that he might have to come here more often in the future.

It turns out that as the male protagonist of the second "Zong Heng", Fulong is not only filming "Fission", he also has to cooperate with the preparatory work for "Zong Heng".

The art department and other departments may have to ask Fulong to come over from time to time to discuss the styling ideas for "Zongheng" Yingsi, or he may directly serve as a model.

Fulong had no objections to this. He signed a contract for two dramas of "The Qin Empire". After receiving the money for two dramas, he had to work on two dramas.

Now that he doesn't cooperate, he won't be able to escape when it comes to "Zongheng". It's just a matter of time.

In the evening, Fulong attended the script seminar. He said it was a meeting, but in fact there were only four people in total.

Fulong, the chief editor of the "Qin Empire" writing team, plus Chen Shouming and Zuo Le.

Although the people are nice, the portions are huge

Now the filming of "The Great Qin Empire" is in full swing. Several executive directors and multiple crews are filming together. The directors and actors are very busy.

At first, Fulong thought that he would just communicate with the screenwriter and it would be over. Unexpectedly, Zuo Le and the first male lead, Chen Shouming, both came together. This made Fulong pay more attention to this script seminar several times.

In fact, what Fulong didn't know was that he was not the only one surprised.

The editor-in-chief and Chen Shouming, who was dragged here, also expressed surprise that Zuo Le was hosting this script seminar.

It has been so long since "The Qin Empire" was launched, that is, when it was first launched, the crew jointly held a large seminar. After that, the screenwriters and actors usually communicated. This was the first time that this happened today.

Facing the surprise and doubts of several people, Zuo Le actually knew what he was doing, but he had no explanation, and it was not enough for outsiders to understand.

Although the entire series of the original "Qin Empire" is of excellent quality, it also has many problems.

Let’s not talk about the other films, let’s just talk about the first film “Fission”. There are two most critical issues.

First, Shang Yang is overly deified.

It is no exaggeration to say that Shang Yang in "Fission" is a saint with almost no shortcomings.

This setting itself is not bad. As a positive protagonist, it is normal to create an ideal character, but the most inappropriate thing is to belittle other characters and use it to set off Shang Yang.

And not just ordinary people, Mencius, Shen Buhai, Gongshu Cuo, Pang Juan, Sun Bin, Yingsi, and even Qin Xiaogong, in order to show Shang Yang's wisdom, they made certain belittlements and even slanders.

Yes, Shang Yang is indeed great.

But other historical figures are also outstanding among people, and they cannot be criticized and praised.

In fact, this is also true. In the comment barrage seen by Zuo Le on Goldfinger, most of the negative reviews are due to this.

The screenwriter wanted to deify Shang Yang, but he didn't know that Shang Yang's image in history was not particularly positive. Such a fierce attempt to "rectify chaos" would easily go too far, causing backlash.

Therefore, the major change Zuo Le made in the script of Shanhe's "Fission" was to eliminate this praising and belittling technique.

Although Shang Yang is admirable, the others are not just villains waiting to be slapped in the face by the protagonist.

Even the villains of the old family, including Lao Qianlong, had their own reasons for their actions. They initially opposed the new law. Although they were selfish, they were not completely unjust.

The Qin State is poor and weak and cannot withstand hardships. If the reform fails and its vitality is severely damaged, what will happen to the Qin State in the future?

Of course, in the later period, due to the relationship of interests, the two sides quickly turned against each other, and they became red-eyed and fought to the death. Let's talk about the other two.

The second question is to win.

I have said this before, the role played by Ying Si in "Fission" is not glorious, he is a villain.

This didn't matter when it came to the drama "Fission", but when it came to the second drama "Zong Heng", which focused on winning Si, a sinister monarch who stabbed people behind his back was not a pleasing image.

Especially the audience who watched "Fission", who were heartbroken by Shang Jun's martyrdom, turned to the second film "The Chief Culprit" and began to occupy the C position of Da Qin and denounce Fang Qiu.

Thinking about it makes me a little sick...

This is not unfounded worry, this happened in the original version.

Before the second part of "Zongheng" was released, many people had the impression that Ying Si was a scheming Ying, and the impression was very poor.

As a result, in the second part, in order to make Ying Si look more like the male protagonist, the character was directly changed, which made many old viewers who had followed the first part get away with it, and thus a lot of controversy arose.

It was not until later that the reputation of "Zongheng" was reversed due to its solid quality, and the audience became very fond of this "Qin King Wins the Si".

Since he knew the problem in advance, Zuo Le naturally would not delay solving it.

In addition, he is determined to make "The Qin Empire" into a series, and the characters and plots must be coherent, so Yingsi must make changes.

………

But it is not a simple matter to "whitewash" and win Si. This is directly related to the ending of "Fission".

The known result is that Shang Yang will die and his image will be noble.

So here comes the problem. Ying Si, Lord Qin, is the one who gave the direct orders, so he must be in the position of the villain. It is not easy to clean up a "villain" who kills the protagonist.

The character Ying Si in the original version of "Fission" has a deep mind. As early as when he returned to the position of prince, he was afraid of the powerful Shang Yang, but he was not murderous and just wanted to seize power.

Later, under the instigation of his uncle Ying Qian, he gradually adopted a hostile attitude towards Shang Yang, conniving at the attacks of the old family and Ying Qian, intending to defeat Shang Yang and take control of the Qin state.
