Chapter 242 I didn't understand what Lu Yuan wanted
Li You was naturally very satisfied with the script of "Seventeen Years Old Bicycle" and signed a contract with Lu Yuan before leaving. Of course, after signing the contract, Li You also sincerely expressed his hope that Lu Yuan would become an assistant director on the set.
He thought the film had great potential and wanted to attend the International Film Festival in Berlin after filming.
It can be seen that Li You seems to be very ambitious for the movie, and has even planned the future of the movie.
Lu Yuan did not agree to Li You being an assistant director.
Although he has experience in filming "Buried Alive" and has been in the crew for a long time, he has become more or less different, but Lu Yuan understands that he is really different...
And the assistant director...
What does an assistant director do?
All the work that the director was too lazy to do was done by the assistant director. When the director saw that an actor was unhappy, the assistant director would personally take the blame and teach that actor a lesson. At least that's how Lu Yuan tortured Fatty Wei during the filming of "Buried Alive".
Lu Yuan still remembers that at that time, Fatty Wei did all the dirty work, and he was only responsible for holding a loudspeaker and shouting in the crew. After the shouting was completed, the plot was filmed...
So, you let Lu Yuan do Fatty Wei's job.
What can this guy do?
What a joke.
After seeing Li You off, Lu Yuan looked at the time and saw that it was already half past ten in the morning.
Lu Yuan yawned and then went back to the room and fell asleep. He had a scene at 2:30 in the afternoon. It was impossible to film with such a tired body...
He needs a good rest.
……………………
The "remote" company is actually very harmonious inside.
Although the company is run like a small family workshop, everyone in the company is filled with a happy and joyful atmosphere.
There is no intrigue or intrigue like in a big company.
Li Qi naturally welcomed Lu Yihong when he heard that he wanted to play the male lead in his own movie. Although the investment in this movie is really pitiful, having Lu Yihong join him will undoubtedly add a touch of high-end color to the movie.
Anyway, everyone gets salary and commission, so the difference is not very big.
After Lu Yihong read the entire script of this movie, he immediately sighed again at Lu Yuan's powerful imagination.
This science fiction movie can be edited in this way, which really makes Lu Yihong feel refreshing and refined...
Of course, it's impossible to be shocked.
Lu Yuan has done some shocking things every day in the past six months.
This time the script made Lu Yihong feel normal.
It's only natural that he writes so well.
Don't ask why, just ask because he is Lu Yuan!
Lu Yuan's name may only mean the headline-making king in China, but he is a monster within "Remote" Entertainment.
What operations does your monster have? Why should everyone be shocked?
This person is no longer human...
Even if one day Lu Yuan vowed that he would go to heaven, they would all believe it.
After Lu Yihong joined the cast of "This Man Is From Earth", the entire crew was finally assembled. The filming process was summarized by Li Qiyi...
The filming can be completed in twelve days at the latest!
Twelve days...
Li Qi suddenly had an idea. If the movie could be shot in twelve days, could it be released on April Fool's Day?
He checked the movie trailers on April Fool's Day and found that the trailers on that day were basically romance movies and comedies. The biggest feature of these movies was that they generally didn't invest much, but their box office performance was okay...
If "This Man Came From Earth" had been released on April 1st, it might have hit several million at the box office.
Although it can't win the box office championship, it shouldn't be a big problem to stay in the top five.
Come little by little.
After Li Qi and Lu Yihong finished planning, they went to find Lu Yuan who had just woken up.
"It will be released on April 1st? Will it be rushed?"
"I won't rush... I will do it very carefully."
"Okay, let's get ready now."
"Um."
Lu Yuan himself has no objections. The sooner it is released, the sooner it will make money. Lu Yuan is certainly not stupid.
After getting Lu Yuan's consent, Li Qi naturally took the script and started discussing the details of tomorrow's shooting with Lu Yihong again.
…………………………
The filming process of "Groundhog Day" gradually became smoother.
After really breaking through that layer of window paper, Lu Yuan found that his acting skills had improved to the point where he could control them at will, and even his soul had been sublimated.
Before filming, Lu Yuan had always been the same as before in the crew, eating and drinking as he should, but once he entered the filming state, Lu Yuan's whole temperament changed instantly.
There was even a moment when Xu Lu thought that Lu Yuan was suffering from schizophrenia. He usually showed an approachable smile, but during the filming, he suddenly turned into the selfish one who only knew how to complain and want to be early.
The host of Escape from this Hateful Town.
Even if Xu Lu is a talented actor, she can't stand Lu Yuan's sudden actions for a while. Many times when the plot reaches critical moments, Xu Lu will be shocked by Lu Yuan's change of temperament, and then forget about it.
Words or emotional expressions are inconsistent, which slows down the process a little...
Fatty Wei was actually very shocked by Lu Yuan's performance.
Even Lu Yuan's performance in several scenes made Fatty Wei want to rush in and scold Lu Yuan severely.
Finally, he reminded himself, this is a show!
It's just a play.
In short, Lu Yuan very successfully played a selfish and negative-emotional person to the fullest!
Genius, is he a genius no matter what he does?
Fatty Wei could only sigh like this.
Lu Yuan was not proud of his performance on the set.
Lu Yuan himself knew that he was not actually a so-called genius. He was just copying the performance of the protagonist in the original world, and then deepening that performance when he was in good condition.
In other words, I tried my best to make up for some of the performance flaws of the original world protagonist, but I tried my best to expand the advantages...
Then, a situation like this occurred.
In a sense, you are cheating.
If Lu Yuan was really asked to play someone he had never met before, then Lu Yuan felt that he might act like shit.
At least he knows how much he weighs.
On the evening of March 20, after Fatty Wei announced the end of work, Woodchuck finally began to officially enter the plot of the concept of time, and Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Finish filming this program early and have a good rest early.
……………………
Shonan Terrace.
Director Xu Guangrong frowned silently as he looked at the ratings of the recent program.
With the gradual rise of online video platforms, the ratings of major TV programs have begun to decline to a certain extent.
This is an inevitable trend.
Even the Spring Festival Gala cannot withstand such an impact, let alone other local channels.
If it is a general decline, Xu Guangrong can still accept it. After all, it is within a certain range, and March is not a prime month for ratings, so it is actually normal for the data to be slightly different.
But……
When Xu Guangrong saw that the ratings of "Happy Camp" in March dropped from the peak of 15 in February to 12.5, he immediately had a headache.
He specially read the previous issues of "Happy Camp".
The quality of the host is still there, especially the host He Ming's ability to stand on the stage with witty remarks and humor. He always makes some of the audience burst into laughter. The atmosphere of the show is really good.
It stands to reason that the ratings cannot drop so sharply!
Xu Guangrong was puzzled at first, but then after seeing those guests, Xu Guangrong suddenly understood.
These invited guests don’t seem to be very popular with the audience...
But why is it not popular?
The recent episodes have invited popular young talents and some old variety show stars to combine them. Logically speaking, they should be quite invincible...
Xu Guangrong narrowed his eyes.
"Secretary Chen, please ask Xiao Xu to come over. I have something to ask him."
"Oh well."
About half an hour later, the door of Xu Guangrong's office opened and Xu Peng walked in.
Xu Peng and Xu Guangrong both have the surname Xu, and they are also somewhat related. In terms of seniority, Xu Peng has to be called Xu Guangrong, uncle.
Of course, Xu Guangrong is not the kind of person who likes to be related to relatives. He has always valued ability. At least when Xu Peng entered Xiangnan Station when he graduated, Xu Guangrong did not give him any help. Even other people in the station did not know about the two.
People are related...
Of course, Xu Peng is really capable. In the past few years, he and his team have planned ace programs such as "Happy Camp".
This made Xu Guangrong look at Xu Peng with admiration, and gradually he would come to Xu Peng immediately if anything happened in the station.
"Director, are you looking for me?"
"Do you know why I'm looking for you?"
"Maybe it's because the ratings of "Happy Camp" have declined..."
"Do you know why?"
"I know a little bit about it."
"What's the reason?"
"The guest we invited is not very popular with the audience..."
"What guests do the audience like to watch? Should we do a survey?"
"Director, I was just looking for you. In fact, I voted in the questionnaire half a month ago, and now the preliminary results have come out..."
"How did it turn out?"
"Lu Yuan's vote took the first place, beating the second place popular little fresh meat Han Lu by more than 10,000 votes..."
"Lu Yuan..." Xu Guangrong seemed thoughtful after the young man on the stage appeared in his mind, "Then invite him..."
"I personally invited you, but unfortunately it failed..."
"Is he such a big name now?" Xu Guangrong frowned, "Then what request did he make? If it's not excessive, it doesn't matter if he agrees."
"If there is no request, it is declined."
"No request? What does this mean?"
"Actually, I don't understand what he is thinking...it seems that he is not very interested in our program."
"Have you told him about the advantages of our program?"
"I've said it before."
"Is he playing a big role?"
"Well...he's not trying to be a big star, at least he's quite enthusiastic towards me...but he has no intention of appearing on the show."
"No, you must not know what he wants."
"I'm confused too, but he didn't ask us for anything at all... How about I go over and invite him again tomorrow?"
"Well, yes, let's invite him again to show our sincerity. This time, you have to do your homework and know what he wants before talking to him. Otherwise, the conversation will be half-hearted."
