The TV series "Wulin Gaiden" has attracted much attention since the beginning of filming. Many TV stations want to buy it. Mubai Entertainment has not sold it yet and plans to wait for the TV series to be completed before selling it.
This drama has great benefits, but also great risks.
Because the director is Chen Yunteng, Chen Mubai did not participate in the whole process, and most of the actors are newcomers. Except for Qian Duoduo and a few other veteran actors, the rest are newcomers to Mubai Entertainment, so the TV station is also a little worried.
Therefore, the purchase price offered before filming starts is not high, but once the finished film is released, the price can be increased based on the quality. This is also the reason why Mubai Entertainment has not sold "Wulin Gaiden" yet.
The script of "Wulin Gaiden" is very long, and the post-production process will take some time. Judging from this situation, being able to release it in October is considered to be a fast progress.
Fortunately, although there is a lot of content and a lot of work, there can be more editing staff. Chen Yunteng is not the only one who edits. Otherwise, he will be exhausted and it will probably take half a year to roughly edit the pornographic film.
In fact, the continuity of this drama does not require special logic. As long as the story of a single unit is well edited, this will facilitate the editor's work to a certain extent.
Each person can be responsible for editing the story of a unit, and then connecting it through the relationship between the upper and lower scripts. It does not require one person to participate from beginning to end and pay attention to details.
For example, for TV series such as "Nirvana in Fire", those involved in editing must be involved in the entire process. One person cannot edit a section. This will miss some details, causing problems with the logic of the TV series and making it less coherent.
"Wulin Gaiden" does not have this problem. After all, it is a situational story that focuses on unit types. As long as the story is told well, it will be fine.
With others sharing the burden, Chen Yunteng's burden will be greatly reduced. When the time comes, he can ask others to help edit the rough pornographic film, and then perform refined editing on it, which will be much more efficient.
"You don't have to worry about these things. Get some rest these two days and get ready to go to Xiangjiang." Lu Fang said with a smile.
"no problem!"
...
Two days later, the topic of Chen Mubai's concert was still fermenting on the Internet. His concert once again made many songs popular. Almost all of his songs dominated the Weiyin charts!
Many people who did not see the concert listened to his songs on the software, while those who went to the concert listened to his songs to reminisce and see the difference from the live version.
Amid the excitement, Chen Mubai flew to Xiangjiang in a low-key manner.
Also accompanying us are Qian Duoduo and Tao Yaoyao, after all, they also have roles.
The startup ceremony was held in Xiangjiang, where there were more rules than the ceremony held by Chen Mubai himself.
The Feng Shui here in Xiangjiang has been consulted by masters. We specially selected an auspicious day for the opening ceremony, which was very grand.
They also set off firecrackers, which means instant success, and do many things that mean auspiciousness.
People here in Xiangjiang believe more in Feng Shui, so they take this aspect very seriously, because the acting industry was born out of the stage, and the earliest people in the theater troupe sang on the stage.
Before going on stage, these people would offer incense to pay homage to their ancestors and thank them for the rice. Later, these customs have been passed down.
"This power-on ceremony is so exquisite!" Qian Duoduo sighed.
"Yeah, I think it's quite interesting." Tao Yaoyao said with a smile.
She is a singer, so she doesn't experience this kind of thing often.
And although mainland directors also have opening ceremonies, they are much simpler. They just pay homage and then cut the ribbon, which is not as grand as Xiangjiang.
In fact, Chen Mubai's opening ceremony was more complicated and had more steps than the opening ceremony of a TV series she had filmed outside.
Chen Mubai made his debut in Xiangjiang in his previous life, so he was somewhat influenced by the culture of Xiangjiang.
However, it was only after he moved to the Mainland that his reputation grew. When he was in Xiangjiang, his status was not high, and the crew he participated in were not top-notch large-scale productions, but he did not experience such grand scenes throughout the whole process.
He didn't learn everything, he just went through the process, which was very simple compared to the ceremony in Xiangjiang.
"We will eat in a while, and we will start filming then. You can get familiar with each other first, especially you, Duoduo, the silly and strong character you play is Teacher Liang Wei's boss. The two of you play together, you
I need to have a good relationship with him and take you with me when I act." Chen Mubai said.
Qian Duoduo nodded: "I understand."
Now that the ceremony is almost complete, the next step is the opening banquet, which is also the time for the crew to gather together.
Because this drama is a Hong Kong film, the language will be filmed in Cantonese, and when it is released in the mainland, someone will be found to dub it later.
People in Xiangjiang are accustomed to communicating in Cantonese, so Mandarin is much different, and the effect of the interpretation is also much inferior.
When Qian Duoduo and Tao Yaoyao were filming, they could only shoot in Mandarin. Later, they found someone to dub in Cantonese, but in mainland China, it was the original voice.
Qian Duoduo speaks Mandarin, and Liang Wei speaks Cantonese. There will be a certain gap between the two when filming, and the cooperation between the actors will definitely not be perfect.
In addition, Liang Wei himself is a powerful actor with superb acting skills. Qian Duoduo's acting skills are very different from his. If Liang Wei didn't take him with him, I'm afraid Qian Duoduo wouldn't be able to take the role at all.
Although for Chen Mubai's sake, Liang Wei might not intentionally embarrass Qian Duoduo like this and would take care of him, but the gap is too big and the contrast will be strong.
If the relationship between the two is closer and they get along more on weekdays, they will have a tacit understanding during filming.
The power-on ceremony was over and a group of people started to eat.
The main creative staff sat at the same table, Qian Duoduo and Tao Yaoyao sat next to Chen Mubai.
"Director Chen, here's a toast to you!"
Representatives from the investors of "Infernal Affairs" came, and everyone smiled and greeted Chen Mubai.
"Mr. Wu, I drink tea instead of wine. You also know that I am still a singer. Smoking and alcohol are more harmful to the throat, so I won't do it." Chen Mubai smiled.
"I know, no problem." Mr. Wu said cheerfully.
Chen Mubai's status is not lower than him, he can do whatever he wants, and besides, he is also their savior, so it is impossible to offend him for such a trivial matter.
If Chen Mubai's behavior was that of an ordinary celebrity, he would have offended Mr. Wu.
Don’t you dare drink the toast from the investors? Isn’t this just looking for excitement?
During the banquet, everyone ate, drank and chatted, and the atmosphere was good.
"Viagra, let me toast you!"
Qian Duoduo took the opportunity to chat with Liang Wei in the name of toasting. It was the easiest time to get closer at the dinner table, and they had no grudges in the first place.
Everyone knows the relationship between Chen Mubai and Qian Duoduo, and no one will deny them face.
"I grew up watching your movies. Now that I have entered the industry, you are still so young. It is your first time to share the stage with an idol. I am very nervous. If you don't perform well then, you have to be more patient." Qian Duoduo smiled.
Let's talk.
"Awei's fan again!" Another veteran actor laughed and teased Liang Wei.
Many mainland stars grew up watching Hong Kong's film and television productions. They often encounter this situation when cooperating with mainland actors.
Everyone is very happy about this kind of thing, after all, it is also something that adds glory to the face.
"No problem, you are my eldest brother!" Liang Wei replied in Mandarin, fearing that Qian Duoduo wouldn't understand.
He joked that in the movie Shaqiang is Chen Yongren's eldest brother, and he is also the one who takes him on the road to Jiechen.
Therefore, what Liang Wei said is not nonsense.
"In the movie, I am your eldest brother, but in reality, you are my eldest brother!" Qian Duoduo responded with the same smile.
"You call me big brother, how can I not take care of you?" Liang Wei laughed dumbly: "Here, if you have any questions, come to me. Director Chen may be busy, but I am more free."
Liang Wei can say this, which shows that he still has a good impression of Qian Duoduo.
"Thank you in advance, brother, and I'll give you another toast!" Qian Duoduo continued happily.
Qian Duoduo and Liang Wei have also established a relationship, and everyone is enjoying themselves.
"We will become a family in the next period of time. Let's try to finish filming this movie as soon as possible. Let's work hard together!"
Finally, everyone raised a toast.
Luo Fan and other investors have quite a lot of confidence in the movie, otherwise they wouldn't be able to invest so much, and they are looking for big names to star in the movie. They are determined to kill it with one hit, and they want to use this to make a comeback!
The script of the movie is very good, and the rest depends on the quality of the movie.
Based on the ratings and reputation of Chen Mubai's current works, none of them are bad. They still believe that the quality of this movie will not be bad, but they just don't know whether the audience will pay for it, and they don't have much confidence in the box office of the movie.
...
"Come on, let's pack up everything and let's start shooting!"
"The actors are in position quickly!"
"Props team, are the props ready!?"
"Okay, let's start shooting!"
Amidst a burst of busy and noisy sounds, the filming of the movie "Infernal Affairs" officially started.
"The first scene, the first shot, the first action!"
The clapperboard is fired, the crew clears the scene, the actors take their positions, and filming begins.
The first scene tells the story of Han Chen's selection of several men to be sent to the police academy to study and let them become police officers and undercover agents.
Burning incense in the underworld represented loyalty, and then Han Chen drank with them to see them off.
Because they were sent to the police academy to study, their relationship should not be exposed. They were kept very secretive, so naturally they would not send off with a big fanfare.
Here, the young Chen Mubai is played by himself, but the make-up and menopause make him look very young.
Chen Mubai did not plan to use a substitute. After all, he was not very old himself and did not need a young substitute.
In the following content, his appearance will become much more mature and his temperament will change.
"My life is called, one general will make all the bones dry up."
The actor who plays Han Chen is also an experienced actor who has won the Best Actor Award, and he is very powerful.
Han Chen looked at the younger brothers he had chosen with a joking face and said with a smile, "But I don't agree."
He pointed his finger at the sky and shook it, and then said with a serious expression: "I think life and death should be decided by yourself when you go out to run in the world. You and I have the shortest time, and your wealth is the cleanest."
"It's up to you to decide which way to go."
"Click!"
"Very good, do it again!" the assistant director said excitedly.
"Brother Qian, you are very powerful." Chen Mubai praised. He had just appeared in the role. He was the young Liu Jianming, who was selected to be a policeman.
Qian Guang is the one who plays Han Chen. Chen Mubai has just observed his acting style and the tone and expression of his words at close range. He is very good at performing the arrogance and conceitedness of the underworld boss.
And although he was smiling when he spoke, his tone was commanding. Although they were allowed to make their own choices, there was no one who could really refuse.
After all, who dares to refuse such a smiling tiger style person?
The image of the underworld boss emerged immediately, he was ruthless, arrogant and had a temperament that seemed kind but was ruthless!
"Director Chen is joking."
Qian Guang himself is very approachable when he is acting, and his acting state and himself give people the impression that they are two different people.
This kind of acting skills is really amazing, no wonder he is a seasoned actor, he deserves to be the one who once won the best actor award!
