Deng Qiqi responded to Lin Juan with an awkward smile, staring at the screen but reluctant to move. She found...
This movie is pretty good!
In fact, Lin Juan is also very embarrassed now, but he has just discovered that being embarrassed becomes natural. This is called habit becoming natural. And there is a chatty person like Will next to him, so he imitates it now.
Don't tell me, it's quite interesting.
The joy of chatterbox is unimaginable!
But it was his nature after all, so Lin Juan gradually calmed down and focused on watching the movie with Deng Qiqi. Now Deng Qiqi also breathed a sigh of relief and concentrated on the movie.
Lin Juan played the scene from the first scene, to the library, to Lu Yan's appearance as a guest star. At this time, Deng Qiqi burst out laughing, obviously she did not expect Lin Juan to be such a prank.
Then we went to the professor's house. The actor who played the professor was a guest star who was hired by Chen Guang through his connections. He happened to be in Tianhai at the time, so he took a few hours to act in a scene.
This great god is called Jin Shijie.
It is no exaggeration to say that Zhang Shan was in a state of being beaten throughout the scene. This old man should be one of the characters at the peak of his acting skills.
From here, the movie officially enters the tense stage, until the three of them are about to enter the dark forest. Forty-two minutes later, the movie is over.
"Is it gone?" Deng Qiqi asked Lin Juan reluctantly.
"There are still some special effects clips that have been completed, but because some of them are not done yet and cannot be connected, I will leave them alone for now."
"Can you show me?" Deng Qiqi's eyes were full of expectation.
"Of course, I originally wanted to show it to you." Lin Juan said with a dumb smile.
Then I put on those fragmentary special effects clips.
In the dark forest at night, there are dots of fluorescent lights. Zhang Shan and Guan Xiaotong are talking with their backs against an ancient tree with several people hugging each other. It is strangely romantic in the dangerous environment.
The fight on the sea, the ferocious leaping of thousands of fish.
Landslides and ground cracks, volcanoes erupt, the camera zooms up quickly, three figures run wildly, and a pterosaur-like creature flies above their heads, which is shocking and spectacular.
Groups of special effects shots were presented in front of Deng Qiqi, which made her eyes brighter and brighter. She said with a smile: "I am really looking forward to seeing this movie in the cinema."
Lin Juan smiled happily and nodded. This was his first recognition for this movie.
"Can you give me a copy of the script? I'll take a good look at it when I go back. I'm honored to write the theme song for this movie." Deng Qiqi said with a smile. Compared with the awkward chat at the beginning, her attitude now is undoubtedly much more sincere.
.
"Okay, actually I have written a copy of the lyrics here. You can use it as a reference when you go back. If it works, use it. If it doesn't, forget it." Lin Juan said with a smile, taking out the script he had prepared a long time ago and taking out an A4 sheet.
The paper was handed to Deng Qiqi.
Deng Qiqi took it in surprise, looked at it and said with a smile: "Okay, it feels quite suitable."
At the same time, she was secretly amused. It turned out that the muttering before was because she had written the lyrics. This director was so interesting.
"Then I'll leave first. Director, please take your time."
"Okay, thank you."
"No, no, I watched a movie. No, it was half a wonderful movie." Deng Qiqi's cheeks were plump when she laughed. No wonder she was nicknamed Goldfish.
Lin Juan smiled: "Well, goodbye?"
We’ve finished chatting about the business, and they’ve said they’re leaving. I’m still busy, so there’s nothing wrong with seeing off the guests. Otherwise, why would I still treat them to dinner? It’s so pleasant to eat takeout by yourself…
"Okay, bye." Deng Qiqi waved, took the script and left. When she returned to her nanny car, she took out Lin Juan's lyrics with great interest. She originally just planned to read it casually. After all, the director wrote it.
Close to the effect he wanted.
Who knows the result...
As I watched, a beautiful and heroic melody was born in my mind.
…
The completed special effects shots are flying in every day like a baby swallow. Counting from September, it has been four months. Each special effects company needs to produce as many as ten or as few as five or six shots. If not
Because they had to wait for the shots shot by Lin Juan, they had already done it.
On December 18th, when two-thirds of the special effects shots were completed, Deng Qiqi's song also came. Lin Juan smiled knowingly when he got it, because the whole song was exactly like the one in his mind.
The difference between the first song and the song is very small, and the lyrics have only been slightly changed, making them more fitting for the entire movie.
Time passes little by little, and "Journey to the Center of the Earth" has made no movement at all amid the expectations of a small number of fans. They are quietly doing their work and waiting for the special effects to be completed. Now everything is settled, just waiting for the special effects.
.
At this time, in the outside world, there is no giant in the box office market in December. The most popular movie in the market is an RB anime pure love movie called "Your Name".
To be honest, it's a bit shameful that so many domestic movies have been ruined by an RB anime.
However, this is also because domestic blockbusters are all getting ready to be released on January 28, the New Year, resulting in a window period for blockbusters in December.
Another movie with a slightly better reputation is "Twenty-Eight Years Old", but it can be considered polarizing.
Under such circumstances, the time came to early January, and all the special effects shots for "Journey to the Center of the Earth" were finally delivered. Five days later, on January 8, Lin Juan completed all the editing and dubbing work, and the entire film was declared completed.
Upon receiving this news, Li Lan informed Lin Juan to organize an internal viewing meeting on the afternoon of the next day. This viewing meeting will conduct a final internal evaluation of the film and decide what the company will do for the film in the future.
How much resources does the movie invest in promoting it and striving for scheduling?
At noon on the 9th, Lin Juan brought Will to the Chenguang Building. Will insisted on following him. Seeing his eager eyes, Lin Juan felt soft for a moment and agreed. He didn't have much filming at home anyway.
…
Now Lin Juan also understands what is going on with him. He spends most of a month idle at home, and occasionally goes out for two or three days to film. It is self-evident what he plays. They are all bit parts, special appointments, etc.
For example, the Kunlun slaves in the TV series, or some businessmen, black refugees, etc.
"Director, aren't you nervous? I'm so nervous now? They'll all be big shots later, right?" Will kept thinking, sweating on his forehead.
"It's actually okay if you leave now." Lin Juan said with a smile. After getting along for a long time, he also automatically developed a unique skill of shielding.
"No, no, I'm not leaving. I want to see our movie. Maybe I can leave a good impression in the eyes of a producer." Will kept making crazy comments, and Lin Juan nodded perfunctorily.
, thinking that the young man still has many ideas!
After entering the company, the two of them were taken directly to Li Lan's office. The atmosphere today was a little different, with a bit of solemnity. After a few simple words, Li Lan took Lin Juan to the movie room.
From time to time, company leaders would come in and chat with Lin Juan with a smile, either sincerely or pretendingly.
There is a smell of hypocrisy in the air.
It didn't take long, after all, everyone was very busy. After everyone arrived, everyone sat down, the lights dimmed, and the movie officially started.
