Chapter 46 'The New Three Kingdoms' enters the group
On the way to the crew of "New Three Kingdoms", a small thing happened.
Producer Yang Ming and director Takagi have broken up; the entire crew has been shut down, and the director may need to be replaced. The original main investor, Huace Film and Television, wants to withdraw its investment, and there are signs of going to court.
Actor Chen Jianbin came to mediate. Chen was also a late bloomer who was born in Yangzhou Opera and won the Feitian Award and the Golden Eagle Award. This year he was elected as the vice president of the Actors Guild and has dealt with producer Yang Ming and director Takagi.
He came up with a neutral idea and asked the crew to shoot two lines at the same time; one was the Wei Palace that Takagi insisted on filming, and the other was the Northern Expedition of Shu. This part was directed by deputy director Kang Kai.
Therefore, the crew is now divided into two groups, one group is at the Wei Palace in Hengdian Film and Television City, and the other is in Zhuozhou Film and Television City. This place was previously the filming location of the Three Kingdoms, focusing on martial arts dramas, and this is where Fang wants to report.
After getting off the plane, Kang Kai sent a producer to familiarize Fang Yi with the situation and pick up the script. In the evening, the cast and crew were going to have a dinner to welcome him, the general of Hou Shu. Nearly eight years have passed since the preparation of "New Three Kingdoms".
Just a little while longer.
Generally speaking, in mainland China, the main actors don't have to come in immediately after reporting, and the pace is timely. The director will also specially select a few scenes at the beginning to let the actors find their groove - except for those like Liu Mi who crazily memorizes lines in the car.
When the producer saw Fang Yi, he said with a sad expression on his face: "Sure enough, he is the most beautiful Jiang Wei in history. Teacher Fang, you... follow me."
Passing through the dazzling buildings of the film and television city, they are very dense and there are many tourists. They are one of the sources of income for the film and television city. The inner scenic area inside is not allowed to drive, so you have to walk on your legs.
"The conditions in this place are really not good. Please bear with me and come to me if you need anything. If I can't come down, you can ask Director Kang..." The producer looked embarrassed and his eyes rolled.
"OK."
The hotel we received was located by the man-made river in Zhuozhou City. It was an antique building. Although it was a few years old, it had an old smell that couldn't be removed. Fortunately, the beds were clean.
The people living near him are all working people, because Fang Yi hasn't made any money yet; if those who have made money, such as Takagi, Chen Jianbin, etc., don't rest in the city that night, but go out of the city to find a good place, it will be worthwhile if they are late during the day.
The crew, etc.; if it is a continuous night scene, they have a private RV to make do with it.
Fang Yi read the script here first.
Soon his expression turned strange.
The lines in the script are a little... special.
Half literary and half white.
Both sides are unhappy.
As for the dialogue between him and Zhuge Liang, this is the scene scheduled to be played tomorrow: "Prime Minister Bing, the Wei River is unpredictable in this season, and there are often heavy rains in the upper reaches overnight..." This is modern colloquialism, followed by "The water in the lower reaches has increased, and the troops and horses cannot cross the river.
"Here it becomes written again.
What follows is even more outrageous: "Prime Minister, is the matter really that serious? If our army retreats..."
If, once.
Screenwriter is out of prenatal education?
Takagi invited three literary writers, who are also scholars of relevant history, to serve as screenwriters. How could he come up with such lines?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Fang Yi was puzzled. He thought whether it was because Hou Shu was added to the scene temporarily, and because he was a newcomer and his role was too small, so his lines were full of mistakes. Maybe the lines of other leading actors, no matter how exquisite they were, at least would not have appeared.
It is a rare language disorder among middle school students when writing essays.
There are many versions of the script, and the common cast photos and the A4 thin volume in his hand are replicas; the real script is quite large. The main actors are all there. Fang Yi took it and looked at it, reading ten lines at a glance.
Found something even more shocking.
Dong Zhuo: "A banquet for all the officials."
It’s just six words, but there’s a language problem.
Chen Gong: "Mengde! We have committed an evil act!! They didn't kill us, they killed pigs!"
Cao Cao: "If you want to kill, just kill. Why hesitate and make yourself miserable..."
Did Brother Meng De go through it?
The most awesome line is Qun Te's line, servant B of Wang Yun's family: "Master, Lu Bu is here to give Miss Diao Chan a birthday gift."
…
This is really crazy.
Fang Yi felt the light of a bad movie, lingering in his heart. "New Three Kingdoms" was his debut drama, and he was scheduled to be the annual drama king. He originally thought it was a step to the sky, but now he might become
His own dark history.
Don't be afraid of the dark history. The key is to make a shocking blockbuster, which is likely to leave an impression on the market that it is not a good show.
The talents of a great emperor must also match the luck of a great emperor!
However, the little transparent Fang Yi, no matter how handsome he is, can't change the script, not even Chen Jianbin can do anything about it.
Chen had a very good relationship with Takagi in his early years. He considered Gao his talent and promoted him to star in "Ten Years of Marriage"; Chen later received the script of "The Sky of History" and was overjoyed. He introduced Gao to investors and hoped that he would direct it.
After reading the script, I felt that Chen Jianbin looked "more righteous than gangster", so I kicked him out and invited Zhang Fengyi to play the leading role of Jiang Daya.
Damn it, I was obviously the first to come to QAQ.
Shidi was also bullied in front of the director.
The current investment in "New Three Kingdoms" has soared to 220 million, and the major investors are like locked-up investors, and they can only continue to work hard; the crew's bid to topple the market ended hastily because no other director dared to take over; the former drama king "Crossing Guandong"
The investment is only a little over 30 million, and one film is better than six.
Investors were also bullied.
I really want to go to Hengdian City, seize the bird's seat on that tall tree, and sit in my place instead of grandpa.
He walked around the room for a while, calming his thoughts and listing what to do next.
Visit the pier.
There are three keys to the Zhuozhou line. One is the assistant director Kang Kai, who is also the crew's martial arts instructor and the actor who plays Zhang Fei; the other is Lu Yi, who has a lot of scenes with him. According to Takagi's idea, Hou Shu is basically Jiang
The duo between Wei and Zhuge Liang.
Third, it’s a horse called Chai Feng. Jiang Wei has quite a few circus performances.
Fang Yi didn't have a father to take him to Hawaii to learn skills during the summer vacation, so he had to learn horse riding now.
He called the producer and came to the set of "New Three Kingdoms".
Kang Kai noticed him, held his hands from a distance, and continued to look at the monitor.
It is a literary drama about Zhuge Liang playing the piano. It is in the camp.
There was a guzheng in the center, an incense burner and an oil lamp beside it. Lu Yi sat there without saying a word or making a sound. He could only see his fingers rubbing together, pretending to play exquisitely.
"good!"
A while passed.
But Lu Yi didn't get up, so the camera changed its angle, and the accompanying extras changed positions and slightly changed their movements.
Here's this shot again.
Pass again.
The makeup artist gathered around and touched up Lu Yi's makeup, especially the shadows on his cheeks. The makeup was very heavy, and when the light shone on it, he looked like he was exhausted.
Obviously, this is to be inserted into the different stages of Zhuge Kongming.
However, Fang Yi took a quick look and found that he was still obviously young after all, so it would be better to do something big like cosplay - it's hard to imagine that he invested 220 million yuan.
Kang Kai also took advantage of this opportunity and used a loudspeaker to shout: "Our Jiang Wei is here, please welcome him."
Giving him a small space, Fang Yi raised his hands above his head, bent down, and turned slowly in a circle for everyone to see. Then he showed his face and smiled.
The crowd burst into applause.
Obviously everyone is satisfied with Jiang Wei's appearance.
