Unforeseen circumstances arise, and plans cannot keep up with changes.
There was something wrong with my brother. He was accidentally injured while riding a motorcycle. His hand was broken and there were many bruises. He needed to rest for a month.
Xiaobao knew immediately that the situation was not serious, but the filming would definitely not be possible and would have to be postponed.
My brother was very apologetic. He knew that Kiwi was already making preparations. Because of his accident, all plans were disrupted, so he offered to compensate for the losses.
Some money must have been wasted. Xiaobao wouldn't even ask his brother to pay for it. No one would want something to happen if something happened.
On one side, I comforted him to recover from his injuries, while on the other side, I adjusted my plan.
In fact, it's all okay. The actors don't have to come forward themselves. Everyone can understand and give face to my brother.
It was mainly the film crew. After paying some compensation, the other party said they could wait.
The crew members do not work blindly, they also need qualifications.
We all look forward to cooperating with the kings. A small situation will not affect the overall situation.
Thanks to the joint efforts of many parties, there was no big trouble. The filming will be postponed until Xiaobao returns from Venice.
Although it is inappropriate to say this, there are still benefits to my brother's injury.
Movies require a lot of small props, such as Stone Age tools, certain famous paintings, various handicrafts, etc., which play a huge role in the movie, and the prop team has more time to find or make them.
Actors, if you have time, you can study more scripts and communicate more with real professors.
Several screenwriters breathed a sigh of relief.
They told Xiaobao very straightforwardly that the story was very good, but there were many things that needed to be revised.
There are many stories in the movie that the protagonist tells based on the objects on site. Qin Xiaobao requested that some of the stories be replaced a little bit and that some well-known Chinese stories be found to replace them.
This is not difficult at first, but there is a condition.
Foreigners need to know it too.
The screenwriter understood Xiaobao's ambition and it seems that he really wants to participate in the film festival, otherwise he would not care what foreigners think.
However, this is very common among directors.
In the eyes of the screenwriters, some directors are very unscrupulous. They filmed the painful life decades ago and put it on the international stage, making people think that China is still the same now.
In fact, which country has always remained strong and powerful has not had a difficult history.
There is nothing wrong with facing up to this period of history, but Qin Xiaobao feels it is wrong to use it to serve individuals.
Therefore, there is a strong request to add more Chinese elements.
One sentence above, and one leg broken by running down.
The screenwriters turned into research monks before the exam, frantically starting to look up information, taking notes, and communicating with professional bachelors, and their knowledge in all aspects skyrocketed.
Of course, Xiaobao is not idle here either. Feature films are different from short films, so his little experience is basically useless.
I found a professional assistant director and am also learning.
Mainly, it is the things that genuine directors need to manage and be responsible for under training.
But after giving it a try, he suddenly discovered that he still had a hidden talent, and that was painting.
Storytelling is an important job of the director.
A qualified director, when he sees the script, must transform the words into pictures in his mind.
However, others cannot see what you are thinking in your head, and verbal communication alone cannot fully explain it, which will lead to differences between what the director wants and what the actors perform.
At this time, you need to divide the shots.
Splitting shots not only allows the actors to intuitively understand the director's ideas, but also speeds up the work on the props side.
With the help of the assistant director, Xiaobao tried to draw some scenes, and he was praised. He even thought that he graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts. He was completely realistic and not abstract at all. Even a layman could understand it.
.
As a result, Qin Xiaobao's confidence greatly increased.
Speaking of which, his way of directing is different from others.
People don't care if they have it or not, they just shoot it first. For a ninety-minute movie, you can have more than ten hours of material before editing, and then you can slowly select it.
It's not that troublesome for him. He can just shoot according to memory, which greatly shortens the time.
...
That night, Xiaobao did not go home. He sat in the office with Xiang Yang and Liu Minghua. There were cold beer, crayfish, and various barbecues in front of him. Mango TV was locked on the big TV a few meters away.
Today is the day when "The King of Masked Singer" premieres.
Mango Channel spent a lot of money to promote the program. Posters of the program can be seen everywhere on Weibo and major portal websites.
"Just listen to the voice. Do you know who he/she is?"
This slogan is overwhelming.
Many singers and actors also helped forward it. It can be said that anyone who can surf the Internet knows that Mango TV has released a new program.
Needless to say, there are quite a lot of people paying attention.
The main reason is that the promotional video was well done. It cut out the most exciting one-liners of each singer in the first issue, and then changed them suddenly, which made watching it feel a little exciting.
Especially the mask-wearing form is the first of its kind, allowing viewers to not only enjoy the music, but also have a sense of participation.
Xiaobao is not idle. There are advertisements in the live broadcast room and behind the two novels, trying to do his best.
"Hey," the big dog eats lobster very professionally.
Grab a hand and twist it, divide it into two parts, suck it with your head, throw it away, pull it with your gloved fingers, and the red shrimp meat will come out.
There are not as many shrimp shells in front of Xiaobao and Xiaobao as there are in front of him alone.
"Did you tell me the time of the next recording?"
"Not yet," Xiaobao took a sip of beer. In this weather, masturbating is the most enjoyable thing: "But it shouldn't be that fast. There are four programs in stock now. They will be broadcast for four weeks. It can be until mid-September. It is estimated that the fastest will be September.
Let’s start again at the beginning of the month.”
"Wouldn't that affect the filming of the movie?"
"Fortunately, I have already made an agreement with the TV station that I will not participate in the first day of preliminaries. I will just add some shots later. It only takes one day and I will be back in the evening."
"Mr. Qin is very popular now." Liu Minghua added: "Two consecutive winners of the Singing King, and a shortlisted director in Venice. I haven't told them about the new film yet. I learned that there is something going on here. I said that I will cooperate with the time and try to finish it as early as possible.
.”
"Sure enough, you still have to make a name for yourself." Xiang Yang was not surprised: "But here comes the problem again. You are planning to attend the awards ceremony at the Venice Film Festival, right."
"Um!"
"So, are you still wearing a mask?" Xiang Yang looked at him, still peeling shrimps without stopping.
"Hey..." Qin Xiaobao sighed: "I am also struggling with this problem."
"You need to think about it now. Although it is not the most important award, many reporters at home and abroad are ready to interview you. It is not appropriate to wear a mask in an international situation."
"You mean to take it off and reveal your identity?"
"This is your problem, I can't make a decision." Xiang Yang peeled the shrimp seriously.
Xiaobao was confused, and the barbecue in his hand suddenly felt less fragrant.
