Chapter six hundred and sixteen you come to be the star
"The audience for dialects is too small. This is driving away part of the audience!" Ji Yuxuan said helplessly.
"I think we should film it in Mandarin, so that the plot and lines remain the same, and at least the audience will feel more comfortable. If we stick to dialect, I don't think the audience will necessarily support it."
Now that he had opened his mouth, he was not afraid of offending him to the end. Ji Yuxuan said everything in one breath.
He was already prepared for Chen Mubai to be angry, but what surprised him was that Chen Mubai was not angry, but smiled happily.
Chen Mubai said with a smile: "Let me tell you now, you may not feel it. When the filming is done, you will know why I want them to speak dialects."
"Some emotions don't have that flavor in Mandarin, but the dialect has a lot of feeling."
Naturally, he would not blame Ji Yuxuan. This shows that Ji Yuxuan only spoke out sincerely for the sake of the company. It was too late for him to be happy.
He is not the kind of person who only hears compliments. He still understands the meaning of the emperor's new clothes.
If this happens to Mubai Entertainment at this time, it will be extremely detrimental to the development of Mubai Entertainment. Only if everyone is not afraid to point out the problem can the company avoid too many mistakes and get back on track.
"And I told you, this drama focuses on the stories of small people. Most of these expressions are in dialect. There is no grandeur, but only the unique labels of small people."
Chen Mubai said: "Can you expect a standard Mandarin from a small person in a remote area?"
"Movies are also art based on reality and cannot be completely divorced. If we let little people like them make them feel like rich people, it would be completely different, right?"
"I know what you mean. Mandarin is the official language, and it is something that everyone can understand in the cinema. They will be inclined to this, but it does not mean that they will not support this type of movie if they do not understand it. They mainly watch the works.
.”
"It's like a foreign blockbuster that speaks English but everyone can't understand it. Why don't you watch it happily? With subtitles, these are not problems. What's more, the Chinese dialects can sometimes be understood to some extent, but not completely.
don't know."
Chen Mubai's explanation to Ji Yuxuan was not problematic.
Language is one of the conditions for viewers to choose a film, but it is not a necessary condition.
It's not because of the language barrier that audiences won't choose to watch that movie. In the final analysis, it's a problem with the movie itself.
It seems that Chen Mubai is very confident that he can be accepted by the audience even in dialect, and it is not a reckless move. This makes Ji Yuxuan feel relieved a lot.
As long as you have a clear plan and goal and are not just a whim, then there won't be a big problem.
"Okay, I'll go back and do some research." Ji Yuxuan said with a smile.
"It's okay. If you don't think the effect is good during the on-site shooting, we can watch it again." Chen Mubai comforted Ji Yuxuan.
No matter what, the other party has good intentions, and Chen Mubai cannot dampen his enthusiasm.
After all, it is impossible for Shixian to know the content of "Crazy Stone" or how effective it is. It is normal for him to be worried.
The more professional people are, the more they will understand these things and the more they will think about them.
When Chen Mubai told Lu Fang before, Lu Fang knew that Chen Mubai was going to make a movie in dialect, so he did it without saying a word.
It's not that he doesn't want to offend Chen Mubai, but he has a deep understanding of these more professional things, so he believes Chen Mubai's words and thinks they are absolutely right.
Because Chen Mubai has always been like this and succeeded every time, Lu Fang has great confidence in Chen Mubai!
"If you have any questions, just ask them. It's okay. Don't be afraid of offending me. I'm not the kind of unreasonable person." Chen Mubai said with a smile.
He is now in a state where Ji Yuxuan is semi-convinced. After all, Ji Yuxuan doesn't know how humorous this is unless he really sees the effect on the scene.
"I got it." Ji Yuxuan nodded and said, "Mr. Chen, I'll go back and prepare first. If you need anything, come back to me."
"Go ahead."
After Ji Yuxuan left, Chen Mubai called Qian Duoduo.
After a while.
"Brother Bai."
"Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year!"
"Duoduo, are you filming?" Chen Mubai asked with a smile.
His agent just answered the call. He said that Qian Duoduo was filming and it was inconvenient to answer the phone. He would call back after Qian Duoduo finished filming.
The agent knew that Chen Mubai must have something to discuss with Qian Duoduo, otherwise he would not have asked Qian Duoduo at this time.
"Well, it was my part just now. I just took a break here. I didn't know you were looking for me, so I called you back as soon as possible." Qian Duoduo said with a smile.
"How many scenes do you have left, and how long will it take to finish filming?" Chen Mubai asked.
"Ah?" Qian Duoduo was quite surprised that the topic suddenly came to this.
"There's not much left. I probably have about ten days at most to finish it all," Qian Duoduo said with an estimate.
His scenes have almost been filmed and will be completed soon.
"Do you want to film with me?" Qian Duoduo asked in surprise.
"Yes." Chen Mubai confirmed: "I want to confirm your schedule and then make plans."
"I will tell the director then, try to shoot my movie first, and try to finish it as soon as possible to find you!" Qian Duoduo said excitedly.
It must be a good thing to be able to star in Chen Mubai's work!
It will greatly improve his acting skills, not to mention the impact on his fame.
He had a hunch that Chen Mubai might be looking for him because of something related to filming. Otherwise, why would he look for him at this time?
Chen Mubai’s new work is about to begin again!
This is not only expected by the outside world, but also by the inside of Mubai Entertainment.
Everyone is looking forward to Chen Mubai's next work and wants to enjoy it.
"Buried Alive" and "Nirvana in Fire" are so outstanding. Everyone likes to watch such high-quality works, so naturally they have high expectations for Chen Mubai.
Artists in the company are even more looking forward to the fact that they will not only be able to see the show, but also have the opportunity to star in it. Once they get the chance to star in the show, it is a chance to become famous!
Everyone hopes that they can be selected by Chen Mubai and soar into the sky.
"Okay, then try your best to finish the rest of the scenes first. I've reserved a role for you."
Chen Mubai said: "It's hard for you to work so frequently recently."
He saw Qian Duoduo's hard work.
As Mubai Entertainment grows, apart from Chen Mubai, the company's biggest draw is its wealth.
Many resources are given priority to him. Now it is no longer the small mill it was at the beginning. There are more and more artists in the company, and there are still many trainees on standby.
Every time, Qian Duoduo can get an important role in Chen Mubai's works, which is somewhat unfair to others. After all, everyone works hard, and if he is not outstanding, he will not be able to stand out among the trainees.
Qian Duoduo himself is under pressure. He feels that his abilities are not worthy of his current status and so many resources, so he has been squeezing himself hard recently, filming movies, and accepting announcements just to improve his abilities and not be ignored by others.
Gossip behind your back.
Of course, it doesn't matter if others say he is gossiping, as long as there is competition, he will.
It's just that he doesn't want others to say anything about Chen Mubai and Lu Fang. After all, these resources were given to him by them. In order to prevent their decision from being questioned, he can only desperately improve himself. Only in this way can he block those people.
questioned.
"It's not hard, your pace is so fast, I have to keep up!" Qian Duoduo laughed and laughed.
Some things don't need to be said explicitly, he just keeps them in mind.
"By the way, Brother Bai, are you directing this play yourself?" Qian Duoduo asked.
"Yeah, this time I'm making a movie. My script has been completed. I've already had an agreement with Brother Lu and the project will be approved soon."
When Qian Duoduo heard this, he became even more excited: "Movie!?"
"Then I can act in a movie this time!"
"Do I have many roles? Is the role important?"
Qian Duoduo asked several questions in succession. He was really happy. After being in the film and television industry for so long, he yearned for the big screen, and he was no exception.
"This time, you play the leading role!" Chen Mubai replied with a smile.
"Ah!?" Now it was Qian Duoduo's turn to be dumbfounded.
In fact, no matter how many roles or scenes he has, he can accept it. He really never thought that he would play the leading role, and he was a little discouraged at this time.
"I, I can't..."
"No problem, I believe you. Besides, you didn't even take a picture, so you deny yourself?"
"Okay, okay..." Qian Duoduo cheered himself up and suppressed the shock in his heart.
"I play the protagonist, so what do you play?" Qian Duoduo asked puzzledly.
"I play a supporting role. In fact, this drama has more than one protagonist. Everyone has their own story, which needs to be acted out by everyone, so don't worry about yourself being unable to do it. Just believe in yourself."
Chen Mubai explained to Qian Duoduo that "Crazy Stone" does have Bao Shihong as the protagonist who protects the jade stone, but in fact the performance and roles of several characters are not inferior to him. It can be regarded as a group protagonist, not a single one.
That's all.
Among the three thieves, the roles and characters of Brother Dao and Heipi are also very important, even as important as Bao Shihong.
If these characters are performed well, they will really be as impressive as the protagonists, or even more impressive.
"After you finish filming this movie, go back and have a good rest for a few days to read the script. I will send the script to you then and figure out the characters." Chen Mubai said: "You also have to be relaxed and relaxed at work, otherwise it will be too high-intensity.
Squeezing yourself while filming can sometimes be counterproductive."
"Okay, let's not talk about it now, Brother Bai. I'm going to film a movie here."
"Bye-Bye."
After hanging up the phone, Qian Duoduo's agent sighed: "Mr. Chen is so kind to you!"
Chen Mubai specifically asked Qian to rest for a few days and found an excuse to let him read the script.
In fact, as long as he answers the announcements normally and uses the extra time to read the script, there will be no problem as long as he can spend time trying to figure out the role. This is also the routine practice of many stars.
A star's popularity only lasts for a short period of time, and every day's rest will cause huge losses.
Their schedules are full, so when they receive film and television works, they can only read the scripts on the road or in their spare time, and make full use of all their time to maximize their profits.
There are not many people like Chen Mubai who ask for more money to put down their work and rest.
Qian Duoduo sighed: "Yes, because of this, I can't embarrass him!"
The agent said happily: "This time is an opportunity. We have become the protagonists of the movie. If we perform well, we will have a wider acting career and more opportunities in the future."
"Well, the premise is to seize it. Improving yourself is the most important thing. I will take it seriously." Qian Duoduo sighed.
After he learned the news, he was really under a lot of pressure, but just like Chen Mubai said, you can't be timid before fighting, you have to have confidence in yourself.
"You go filming first. I will communicate with the director and finish filming the rest of your scenes first. Then I will postpone the schedule for you, so that you can have a good rest and polish the role of this script with peace of mind."
The agent said.
There are not many scenes left for Qian Duoduo. He has always been very good in the crew. If the few remaining scenes are filmed first, there will be no problem.
They are going all out to prepare for the drama "Crazy Stone", which is also a very important step for them.
If they don't perform well, they may not be approached by film resources in the next two years. If they succeed, it will be a big step forward and they will have the opportunity to enter the film industry.
