Li Qingyu's affairs were just a trivial matter to Lin Juanlai. It was just a role. He could add any one. At his level, adding any role would be an A-level resource for those companies. He didn't take Li Qingyu too seriously.
As long as he is happy, his focus is still on the show in front of him.
"Come on, pack everything up."
Early in the morning, the entrance to the hotel where the crew stayed was extremely lively, attracting countless villagers to come out to watch the fun. It is a new thing for a crew to come to the countryside these days. Many people even talked to their children outside. The children were so excited that their grandfathers at home were
Grandma helped take photos and asked for autographs.
I don’t know since when, some rural areas, small towns, etc. are full of old people and children, and these grandparents sometimes get up early in the morning, or wait in the hotel all day, just to wait for Lin Juan and others.
An autograph or a group photo of the cast members.
This time was no exception. Lin Juan and the two teachers were surrounded for photos, and Cai Ming was chatting animatedly with his father and mother-in-law.
And the staff were loading props and other things into the truck.
Yesterday, they had finished filming all the scenes at home, and now they will officially embark on the journey to Hainan, preparing to film all the way. It is convenient to have a film crew of more than 30 people.
"Mother-in-law, we have to leave." Lin Juan said patiently to the mothers-in-law who were surrounded by him. As for the fathers, they all went to Cai Ming's side, which was extremely popular.
"Okay, you go, what's the name of your movie?"
"The End of the World."
"Okay, I remember, when will it be released? Can it be released during the Chinese New Year? I will ask my girl to take me to see it then, and they will come back during the Chinese New Year."
"Chinese New Year?" Lin Juan thought for a while and replied, "It should be okay."
The filming period of this movie is only 40 days, and it is expected to be completed around November 5th. Post-production is not difficult to do, and if you can rush it, you can make it in time for the New Year's Eve.
As for the new year box office will be under pressure...
Box office? What box office?
Aren’t movies supposed to bring people happiness?
If you do well, those things will naturally chase you; if you do poorly, you may not be able to catch them if you chase them.
Come on, how many people first choose an industry because of their passion, but in the end they become numb due to endless busyness and exhaustion?
Hey...doesn't this sound like love?
"That's good." My mother-in-law smiled, showing a mouth of incomplete teeth, but she smiled happier than anyone else.
People are very simple when they are young, become complicated when they grow up, and become simple again when they are old. This is a cycle of growth and seeing through. Every stage of life has its own thoughts.
So Lin Juan laughed. Creating happiness with movies would be his lifelong goal until he loses his enthusiasm or can no longer shoot.
Man, it's good to have something you love, but what you fear most is losing your goal.
There is a feeling of...the whole world doesn't need your loneliness.
Being needed is a kind of happiness, and lonely people are never understood.
"Bye~" Lin Juan smiled and waved goodbye to the old people, got into his nanny car and started the journey.
…
Why make this movie?
On the surface, this movie has nothing to attract movie fans. It can be expected that Lin Jian will definitely suffer at the box office, so why not choose to continue making the Alliance series? Or other blockbusters.
He has answered this question many times in various interviews and programs, and the core idea is what he thinks.
kindness……
Everyone will encounter many touching, happy, sad, and desperate moments in this life. Some people choose to forget them, while others choose to record them. The methods of recording are different, and Lin Juan chose to make movies.
How can there be so many reasons for many things? Do you need a reason to go to the toilet?
Hmm...it seems necessary.
Because if you don’t go, you will get a stomachache, and Lin Juan will be very sorry if this movie is not made.
He wanted to tell his grandma what his grandfather told him in the last few months, he wanted to preserve the emotion and sadness, and he wanted to share the stories in his mind with movie fans.
Love is beautiful at the beginning, but then it is buried in those complicated and trivial things. Sometimes we forget that we love each other, and habits make us forget to cherish it.
He wanted to make these into a movie and tell grandma that grandpa had been with him a lot, and the one he couldn't let go of the most was her.
I also thought that if one day in the future he forgets how much he liked her in the first place, this movie will remind him of her and not wait until he is about to leave.
He also wants to share these with movie fans. If the fans can get something from it, that would be great.
This thing about box office...
The reason he never cared was because he knew that once he made the movie, it would be there. If it wasn't done, it would be useless to think about it. He was obsessed with box office and obsessed with movies, so he chose movies.
Lin Juan pressed down the car window, the wind blew wildly on his face, and the fields, trees, and lakes outside the window receded.
He set off.
The plot of this movie was written like this because he was also a little selfish.
People need to be on the road.
I have been on the road ~ escaping from the crowd ~
Humming an unknown tune, Lin Juan's group drifted away.
…
But it's not really that far.
Three kilometers later, at the gas station, the convoy stopped, and then the field attendants began to set up.
First, install the big rocker arm.
It's the thing that can send photographers into the sky. It's pieced together piece by piece, with a big rocker that's counterweighted at the back.
Use this angle to shoot the protagonist’s RV entering the gas station.
Yang Nuo was also sweating profusely as he followed the work. He usually does set chores on the set. This position is the busiest in the set and he is exposed to the most things.
"Teacher Jin, is it okay to drive this car?" Lin Juan asked with a smile. This is a white RV, or a second-hand one specially bought. The interior decoration is quite old.
"No problem~ Any car can drive." Jin Jie smiled and waved her hand, as if you were joking.
Lin Juan laughed. He found that he could chat quite well with these old people. He talked more than he did in front of Liu Xing and the others. Is this normal?
"Xiao Juan, after you finish filming this movie, are you going to film Alliance again?" Cai Ming asked from the side.
"Well, yes, the male lead has been decided. Hu Sheng is a story about a Taoist priest. Oh, by the way, Teacher Jin, are you interested in playing Hu Sheng's master?" Lin Juan smiled and extended the invitation.
"You are targeting me, right?" Jin Jie said in a funny tone, and then joked: "Then I have to see if I have any schedule."
"A bottle of Maotai puree." Lin Juan added more money. This little old man really loves wine.
Jin Jie squinted at Lin Juan, thought about it, and said with a half-smile, "Three bottles."
"Deal." Lin Juan nodded happily.
How much the wine costs is not even a fraction of the salary, it's just a joke.
"Hey, you just forgot about me?" Cai Ming said dissatisfiedly from the side. Before Lin Juan could say anything, Jin Jie said, "Didn't you hear the story about the Taoist priest? Are you going to play a nun?"
Cai Ming burst out laughing himself, patted Jin Jie and said, "Fuck you."
Jin Jie smiled and said: "Director Lin will not forget you if there is a role suitable for you. Come on, Director Lin, let's continue. What is this story?"
