Time flies by, and for students, it’s the beginning of school again.
And Qinghe dropped a blockbuster at the end of this holiday.
The science fiction film "The End of the World", directed by Su Yan with a total investment of 400 million, is about to start filming, starring Guo Hangyu, Liu Chutian, Ti Luoer, and a very strong guest lineup, including Hu Shuai, Huang Lei, Lin Gengxin, Chen Chichi, Wu Jing and more than a dozen stars
.
It can be said that the heat throughout the summer belongs to Qinghe or Su Yan.
After Gong Li, "Three Meals a Day" welcomed two guests, Lao Ma and Lao Yu, which the audience never expected. The big bosses working in the fields, picking corn, milking goats and other actions were even more enjoyable.
The program team turns out to be so tough, everyone is treated equally.
Su Yan is also very busy this month, including auditions, makeup and scenes, scene design, construction, prop design and production, and equipment selection. Because he is not proficient, he does every job personally. It is not all for guidance, but a lot of it is learning.
.
Especially the drawing of sub-shots made him pick up the brush he had put down for many years, and it took him many nights to paint several major scenes to the effect he wanted and that the photographer could understand.
Countless reporters came to Hengdian Film and Television City on August 28th, because today the crew of "The End of the World" will hold a start-up ceremony here.
This kind of ceremony originated in Xiangjiang, where the commercialization of film and television dramas was earlier than in China. There are no certain rules for the objects of worship. Those who believe in Buddhism worship Bodhisattva, those who believe in Taoism worship gods, and those who believe in nothing worship their ancestors, or even worship Guan Gong.
Luban has them all.
One of the more famous ones is Thailand's White Dragon King. At that time, Lin Jianyue's Media Asia Film Company was not afraid of the downturn in the market and held a grand opening ceremony to worship the gods. The name of the movie was changed to "Infernal Affairs" at the suggestion of the White Dragon King. As a result
It was a big seller in the end.
Nowadays, the words have more of a symbolic meaning, similar to opening ceremonies, groundbreaking ceremonies, and crew mobilization meetings. They are also meant to attract attention and win attention.
Of course, because there are many uncertain factors that are difficult to control when filming movies and TV series, such as actor illness, natural disasters and man-made disasters that cause downtime for one day, a lot of money will be lost. Therefore, praying to God for blessings, sometimes the machine will be broken, etc.
For the expected loss, I wish you peace of mind after saying goodbye.
Furthermore, those who make horror movies, after all, many times the filming locations are so-called "haunted houses", so naturally they have to buy out possible "existences".
Since it is a custom, Su Yan will naturally not break it.
At 9:18 in the morning, which was an auspicious time, he led more than a hundred actors and staff to worship Emperor Guan, and under the guidance of a dedicated person, he began to worship.
After that, he walked to the place where pig heads, fruits, cakes and other sacrifices were placed, lit the incense in his hands with a pious look, bowed three times to Brother Guan again, and silently recited his expectations for the next shooting,
Gently insert the incense burner, and the actors behind him also follow the same action.
The whole process took about an hour. In the end, Su Yan walked to the side and uncovered the red cloth covering the camera. After everyone gave a warm applause, the ceremony was completed and everyone stood together to take a family photo.
It's still early, the first shot will be shot in the afternoon, and the rest of the time will be left to the reporters present.
Lao Hu and Wu Jing were not present at the scene, but Chi Chi was very impressive. He came from Yanjing for the special event. You know, his scenes in the entire drama are estimated to be less than two minutes.
Soon, Su Yan took the three leading actors and supporting actors to the interview seat, and the flash basically never stopped.
Lao Wang was so happy that he personally came to be the host.
"Welcome to the colleagues and journalists who are here at the launch site of "The End of the World"... Now you can ask questions freely."
As soon as he finished speaking, countless reporters raised their hands.
Su Yan pointed at someone at random.
"Director Su, as far as I know, although you graduated from the directing department, the focus of your work in recent years has been on variety shows. As a film debutant, is an investment of 400 million yuan too risky?"
It can only be said that this reporter has been very generous and did not make his words too clear. The subtext is that as a rookie, if you dare to invest 400 million, you are not afraid of losing everything.
"First of all, "The Last Days" is a good script. It took the original author three years to write this story. In addition, our excellent actors and staff have done a lot of preparation work. I believe the result will not let us, nor will we
Let the audience down.”
This answer obviously did not satisfy the reporter. He was obviously doing Tai Chi. He wanted to continue talking, but Lao Wang didn't give him a chance and moved on to the next one.
"Hello Director Su, from the name, this seems to be a science fiction film. Since "The Wandering Earth" became a hit, many directors from China have made similar films, but the results were not very good. Some directors were even
Criticism says that the door was finally opened but then closed again. Do you think you can open the door again?"
There is a trap in the question, and Su Yan will naturally not step on it.
"Actually, every movie made is the hard work of a group of people. As for whether it can open the door again, I can't say. Only through the test of the audience can we know, but I am confident."
"Director, the title of the film is "The End of the World". Will there be zombies or mutations like the setting of a Hollywood movie?"
Finally someone cares about the movie itself.
"The apocalypse here tells the story of the result, that is, after a catastrophe, the remaining humans survive in a desperate situation..."
Su Yan talked about a lot of settings about the movie without giving away any spoilers as much as possible.
"Hello, little sister Liu Chutian." For this little actor who is only 13 years old, the reporter still took care of him: "What kind of role are you in the movie?"
"I've been running away, and bad guys have been looking for me." The little girl answered innocently and romantically, making the scene burst into laughter.
"Then did you succeed in escaping in the end?"
"I don't know either. It's not written in the script. If you want to know, you can go to the cinema and watch it."
What a clever little guy.
"Tyrole, what kind of role did you play in the movie?"
"Exhausted to survive..."
"Are there any emotional scenes with Guo Hangyu?"
"In Director Su's apocalypse, love is luxurious and may sprout, but no one can be sure of its future direction."
"Guo Hangyu, just after the TV series ended, he came to participate in the movie. Will there be no problem with the role change?"
"I have to thank the director and the author for this. They spent a lot of time explaining to me in detail the setting of the world view, as well as my character, form and style, etc..."
An hour later, the reporters were satisfied and went back to write a press release with various materials.
