Chapter 534 'The Legend of the New White Snake' is completed (4000+ chapters~)
In February in Jinling, the weather was a bit humid. Wu Jianye stepped off the plane wearing a long windbreaker, jeans, sneakers, and carrying a luggage bag in his hand.
In the eyes of later generations, the airport in Jinling was not as good as an ordinary train station, with only a two-story office building. There was no way to compare with the world-shaking airports of later generations.
After Wu Jianye walked out of the airport, he found a taxi. This time he came without disturbing anyone.
"Master, please wait a moment until everyone is seated before I leave!" the taxi driver said with a smile.
At this time, taxi drivers are a high-paying profession. Whether it is a train station or an airport, most taxi drivers have to wait until the seats are full before leaving. Especially a van like his, which is not full of people.
May leave.
Wu Jianye was a little anxious and wanted to go over to see the situation, so he smiled and said: "Master, go to Jiming Temple, I will rent your car!"
When the taxi driver heard that Wu Jianye wanted to charter a taxi, but looking at Wu Jianye's outfit, he knew he was not an ordinary person, so he immediately smiled and said: "Okay, let's leave now!"
After saying hello to the other drivers around him, he left.
Regardless of that era, taxi drivers always have the habit of chatting about mountains and rivers. After the car started, they started chatting with Wu Jianye.
"Where is the master from?"
"My hometown is Yanzhao, and now I work in Yanjing!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
"Oh, so you are here on a business trip to Jinling?"
"Roughly the same!"
"Well, then you have come to the right place. Our Jinling is a good place, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. When you come to our Jinling, you must try the authentic duck blood vermicelli soup..."
The driver helped Wu Jianye introduce the situation in Jinling. Wu Jianye also chatted with him without saying a word. He was not lonely along the way. During the period, the driver even talked about filming "The Legend of the White Snake" at Jiming Temple.
》The crew.
"You went to Jiming Temple in the right place this time. A TV series is being filmed there right now. Many people are watching it every day. I heard that the heroine in it is the king of the daughter country. If I hadn't been too busy with work, I really wanted to go.
have a look."
"You know who the King of the Daughter Kingdom is. I heard that she was married to the Tang Monk from that episode. When I watched "Journey to the West", I felt like they were a couple. I didn't expect that they were actually married.
Already."
"Haha, you see clearly!" Wu Jianye laughed.
"Not to mention, you look a bit like that Tang Monk. You must be that Tang Monk, right?" the driver joked.
Wu Jianye didn't hide anything: "You really guessed it right!"
But the more Wu Jianye said this, the other party still didn't believe it: "You are really good at joking."
While they were talking, the two of them also arrived at Jiming Temple. There were indeed many people here. Although the Lantern Festival had passed, "The Legend of the White Snake" still brought many tourists here.
Wu Jianye paid the money, then came down with his bag, and followed the crowd to watch the filming of "The Legend of White Snake".
Today's shooting happened to be when Xu Shilin came to Leifeng Pagoda to visit his mother. At this time, Hu Mei was sitting in front of the camera, watching Liu Dong's shooting. Everyone seemed to have been used to this kind of shooting, and the whole process was proceeding in an orderly manner.
With.
As for Leifeng Pagoda, it is actually the Medicine Master Pagoda of Jiming Temple.
Wu Jianye could tell that everyone was already accustomed to their roles, and the filming went very smoothly. The filming of this segment was completed in a short time.
When Hu Mei called everyone to take a rest, Wu Jianye walked over.
At this time, everyone also saw Wu Jianye and gathered around. The filming this morning was all Liu Dong's scenes, so Zhu Hao did not wear costumes, but watched Liu Dong and others filming like everyone else.
, this is actually somewhat different from later shootings.
In later generations of filming, if the person involved did not have a shooting assignment, he would usually do other things, but it is different now. Many people will learn on the spot even if they do not have a shooting assignment.
"When did you arrive?" Zhu Xi asked happily.
"I just arrived, and I didn't come out when I saw them filming!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
Hu Mei smiled beside him and said, "I haven't congratulated Director Wu yet. We already know the news that you won the Golden Bear in Berlin!"
Others also came forward to congratulate, Wu Jianye smiled and thanked everyone.
"Just in time, you're back, and the director's job has been handed over to you!" Hu Mei said.
She was under a lot of pressure during this period. It's not that she has no work experience, it's just because she took over Wu Jianye's job. Wu Jianye won the Golden Bear Award and won awards at three major European film festivals.
She is now the well-deserved number one in the country. How could she not be under pressure when taking over from Wu Jianye?
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Let's introduce to me the shooting schedule first!"
Hu Mei nodded and said, "Okay!"
After listening to Hu Mei's introduction, Wu Jianye also knew that there were not many filming tasks left, and only the scene where Bai Suzhen came out of the tower and the four of them ascended was left.
Wu Jianye thought for a moment and said, "You should finish the remaining shots. I'll just watch from the side."
The remaining shots were relatively coherent, and Wu Jianye didn't want anything to happen after he took over. Instead, he might as well let Hu Mei complete the remaining shots.
Hu Mei thought for a moment, but did not refuse: "That's OK!"
The shooting in the afternoon went very smoothly. The shooting of TV series is different from that of movies. They are often divided into several groups to shoot together, so the director's work is not as detailed as that of a movie director, so even though Hu Mei took over the filming of this scene
, and it won’t let the audience see any difference from Wu Jianye’s filming.
In the evening, everyone returned to Jinling Hotel.
The entire crew lives here, but the rooms they all live in are standard rooms for two people, so when Wu Jianye came, he opened a room for himself.
In fact, the next filming task will be over in a day or two, so many people on the crew who have finished filming have already gone back.
The rest all have shooting duties.
In the evening, Zhao Fei and Hu Mei came to Wu Jianye's room and introduced him to him in detail about the shooting situation during this period. Wu Jianye also asked about some things he was curious about. By the time they finished talking, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.
.
.......
Two days later.
"Click!"
"Thank you everyone, "The Legend of White Snake" is officially finished!"
As the scenes of Bai Suzhen, Xu Xian, Xiao Qing, and Fahai ascending to the next level ended, Hu Mei officially called out that "The Legend of White Snake" is finished.
Bang bang bang!
The crowd applauded, and Wu Jianye also applauded in the crowd. "The Legend of White Snake" has finally been completed, but it does not mean that the TV series can be broadcast. It still needs to be processed by Tangting Culture for post-production and special effects.
The production is expected to be officially broadcast in June!
After giving everyone a few words of encouragement, everyone began to pack their things and return to the hotel. As for the shooting machines, Han Shoumin would be responsible for sending them back to Yanjing.
In the evening, Wu Jianye held a banquet at the Jinling Hotel to thank all the crew.
"Director Wu, thank you for your support!" Chen Hong came to Wu Jianye holding a wine glass.
Wu Jianye looked at Chen Hong and said with a smile: "The filming is over, are you going back to school?"
At this time, Chen Hong was still a student in the theater, but she should graduate next year.
"Yes, being able to participate in the TV series directed by Director Wu is a very important starting point for my career as an actor. Unfortunately, I will be separated from Director Wu soon!" Chen Hongyi said pointedly.
Wu Jianye smiled: "What are your plans after graduation?"
Chen Hong's eyes lit up and he quickly said: "I hope to join Director Wu's Tangting Culture and have the opportunity to cooperate with Director Wu in the future!"
Wu Jianye nodded and said, "Okay, I will arrange for someone to find you in the next two days!"
Chen Hong nodded excitedly. Wu Jianye's Tangting Culture is the best cultural company in the country, and Wu Jianye is also the most powerful director in the country. He originally thought that his previous efforts had been in vain, but Wu Jianye had no feelings for him.
What do you mean, but now it seems that everything still has a chance!
"Thank you, Director Wu!"
"In June, tell the school in advance that the crew will go to Hong Kong to promote "The Legend of White Snake" and the leading actors will go to Hong Kong to participate in the promotion work, so you will probably have to leave school early!"
Chen Hong was naturally more and more happy when she heard that she could go to Xiangjiang to promote this TV series. She had thought that with Wu Jianye's influence, it would be possible for this TV series to be released in Hong Kong. Now she heard that Wu Jianye
I have said this myself, how could I not be excited?
"Okay, I will make sure to arrange things in the academy in advance!"
"Um!"
Wu Jianye nodded and said nothing more.
Hu Mei also came to Wu Jianye at this time and said, "Do you still remember our previous promise?"
Wu Jianye naturally knew what Hu Mei was talking about. When he invited Hu Mei to be the assistant director of "The Legend of White Snake", Wu Jianye said that he would invest in Hu Mei's new TV series.
"Of course, let's do this. When you return to Yanjing, you can bring the script or investment plan to Tangting Culture and I will sign it!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
Hu Mei nodded happily and said, "I know you, an old classmate, will never forget me!"
"That's necessary!" Wu Jianye laughed.
Then he raised his glass and solemnly said to Hu Mei: "Thank you for your help during this time!"
Hu Mei was very happy when she thought that she had the funds for the TV series she wanted to shoot: "It's really polite to say this!"
"When are we going back?" Li Xiaowan also came over and asked the crew about their return to Yanjing.
Wu Jianye thought for a moment and said, "If everyone has nothing to do, just go back tomorrow!"
Li Xiaowan naturally had no objection to this. She followed the crew to Jinling after the Chinese New Year. She didn't even spend the Lantern Festival with her family, so it would be a good thing to be able to go back soon.
.......
After the banquet, Zhu Xian said to Wu Jianye in the room: "Let's stay in Jinling for another two days?"
Although Wu Jianye came to Jinling, Zhu Jian did not move to Wu Jianye's room. However, now that the TV series has been filmed, Zhu Jian no longer has so many taboos.
Wu Jianye smiled and said, "What's wrong?"
"I heard that there will be a dance performance in Jinling tomorrow, please accompany me to see it!" Zhu Xi was originally a dancer, so he was naturally very concerned about these things.
Wu Jianye had no objection to this and said with a smile: "Well, I'll tell Li Xiaowan later and let them go back first, and I'll accompany you to watch the dance performance!"
Zhu Xuan nodded happily.
The two of them were sitting on the sofa. Wu Jianye hugged Zhu Xie and selectively told Zhu Xie that he would go to Hollywood to shoot a romantic movie in the second half of the year.
In fact, Wu Jianye had told Zhu Hao before that he would go to Hollywood to shoot a movie, but at that time, Wu Jianye had not yet determined whether to shoot "Jurassic Park" or "The Last Days".
Everything that happened with Isabel Adjani in Berlin now made Wu Jianye decide to take the lead in filming the movie "The Love Between Ghosts and Humans".
However, during this period Wu Jianye also thought for a moment that one movie was not enough to establish his status in Hollywood, so he would continue filming "Jurassic Park" after filming "The Last Days".
"The French actress Isabelle Adjani has been selected for the movie "The Last Days". She won the Best Actress at the Berlin Film Festival this time and is well-known in Hollywood. She is very suitable for this role!" Wu Jian
Ye said.
Zhu Xian didn't think much about it. He just felt that Wu Jianye would be filming two movies, so he would definitely spend more time in North America. He was still a little reluctant to leave when he thought about it.
Wu Jianye felt Zhu Xia hugging his arms tightly and said with a smile: "But I'm going to leave the female lead in the second movie to you, so you'd better learn more English at home during this time!"
When he first wrote the novel "Jurassic Park", Wu Jianye wrote the female lead as a Chinese-American woman, so when filming "Jurassic Park", it was natural to choose a Chinese-American actress.
There is no problem with Zhu Xian's age or acting skills.
Zhu Jia looked at Wu Jianye in surprise, and asked excitedly: "Should I go to Hollywood to film too?"
"Yes!" Wu Jianye laughed.
Zhu Xian kissed Wu Jianye happily. This did not mean that she was excited about going to Hollywood to film, but she was simply happy at the thought of not having to be separated from Wu Jianye for so long.
The next day!
When Li Xiaowan learned that Wu Jianye and Zhu Hao would stay in Jinling for another two days, she didn't say anything and returned to Yanjing with some of the crew members from Yanjing. The actors from other places also returned to their units.
But after the editing of "The Legend of White Snake" is completed, some key personnel will follow Wu Jianye to Hong Kong to promote it.
That night, Wu Jianye and Zhu Hao came to the Cultural Palace in Jinling to watch a dance performance.
But when she saw the list of dancers, Wu Jianye was slightly startled, because although today's main dancer is not very famous in the entertainment industry in later generations, her daughter is a famous fairy sister in the entertainment industry...
