Chapter 799 This is not a movie the audience will like
This scene is the scene where Chen Mubai and Tao Yaoyao meet.
Chen Mubai agreed to Lu Yiyi's trip to the United States to buy medicine, and he also obtained the contact information and channels for selling medicine from foreigners.
But he doesn’t speak English, and the things he sells in his store can only be purchased through purchasing channels.
This time, he wanted to buy a drug that was banned in the country, and the other party was naturally unwilling to help.
Chen Mubai came to the United States, and when he went to the address given by the foreigner, he met the international student Tao Yaoyao. She then helped Chen Mubai, and Chen Mubai learned her story from her, and he decided to help her.
"action!"
Cheng Yong only knows basic English and cannot communicate at all.
So he was going to spend money to find a Chinese person who could translate for him. When he was looking for help in a fast food restaurant, he met Tao Yaoyao, who worked part-time in the store.
"Do you need help?" Li Lu, played by Tao Yaoyao, saw Cheng Yong speaking Chinese to ask for help, so she spoke in Chinese.
"Are you Chinese?" Cheng Yong looked at Li Lu in surprise.
"It doesn't look like it?" Li Lu smiled.
"I can help you, I can speak English and Chinese."
"Thank you, no need."
Cheng Yong did not believe Li Lu. After all, if the other party sold him casually, he would be unlucky. After all, smuggling is illegal.
"I will keep it a secret for you. I heard what you just said."
Li Lu said: "You can believe me, I have reasons for you to believe me. I go to school here, I am an international student, and I work here to make money and treat diseases..."
In order to win Cheng Yong's trust, Li Lu told Cheng Yong her story and took out her medical record, which showed leukemia!
This is the same disease as Lu Yiyi!
"Can you trust me now?" Li Lu asked.
"Okay, but you have to keep it a secret for me."
"Click!"
After the scene was finished, he looked at Tao Yaoyao and said: "Your expression is not tense enough, and the gradual process of emotion can be better. You have to gain Cheng Yong's trust, but you can't do it at the beginning."
Being so strong requires a process, especially during this process, you have to maintain a desired emotional state, because this is your opportunity to make money and treat illnesses!"
"Okay, I understand, director." Tao Yaoyao said after listening: "Give me a few minutes to think, let's do it again!"
Soon, I got back into the shooting process again.
After shooting in the United States for a while, everyone was in a much better mood and relaxed a bit here.
Because the scene is almost completed, everyone feels much more relaxed. Sometimes Chen Mubai will set aside some time for everyone to enjoy themselves here.
After all the scenes in America were filmed, it was all over.
Film the domestic scenes first, and then film the foreign scenes.
"I announce that "I'm Not the God of Medicine" is officially finished!"
After Chen Mubai shouted these words, everyone was very excited.
The filming process of this drama was not difficult and there were no difficult scenes.
However, during the filming process, everyone was choked up and silent several times, and even shed tears.
The scenes that impressed them the most were one when they were arresting a drug dealer, and a group of patients were taken back to the police station by the police to interrogate them where they bought the counterfeit drugs.
No one answered. Later, an old lady shed tears of grief, and her words to the police officer made everyone in the crew burst into tears.
She didn't scream at the top of her lungs, nor did she make jokes.
He just told his story very calmly.
“Stop chasing fake medicines, okay?”
"I have been ill for three years. I took genuine medicines worth 40,000 yuan a bottle for three years. My house was deprived of food and my family was devastated by me. Now I finally have cheap medicines. Is the medicine fake? How can we
Do not you know?"
"Who can survive without encountering a sick person? Can you guarantee that you will never get sick for the rest of your life? If you take him away, we will all have to wait for death."
"I don't want to die, I want to live."
"Is this wrong?"
The veteran actress who filmed this scene performed very well and her acting skills were also very good, but this scene was also filmed several times.
So much so that during the performance, many people watched her performance with red eyes and shed tears.
That day, after filming the scene, Chen Mubai stopped working and gave everyone a rest.
The main reason is that everyone's emotions have been infected and they are very sad. If we continue shooting, it will not be conducive to work efficiency. We simply give everyone a break and adjust their mentality.
Back at the hotel, Chen Mubai comforted Tao Yaoyao for a long time before letting her get out of her sadness.
Literary young women are the most susceptible to this trick.
Not only her, but even the men, not to mention the women, couldn't bear it, and everyone's tears flowed.
Also, Cheng Yong knew that the police were pursuing the matter and gave up smuggling drugs. As a result, Lu Yiyi died, and his child was only a few months old.
This scene also made everyone feel panicked, especially those who had children.
There is also the death of Huang Mao. The characters in the film are well created. In addition, as they are patients themselves, everyone has more sympathy. They lived hard for their lives and finally gave their lives.
In order not to drag down their families, some of them choose to leave their families. All their actions are just to survive, but they are not just living for themselves. They also want to seek this benefit for more similar people, and ultimately sacrifice themselves.
Compared with ordinary people, their behavior is more admirable and greater!
The previous scenes were all shot well, and everyone knows that this movie itself is a work with a relatively heavy theme, and it is aiming to win awards.
But during the filming process, there were also many comedic parts. Even the sad parts were filled with sadness and joy.
It's just that the final ending was indeed a bit disappointing and a bit more serious. Everyone's mood also changed from relaxed and cheerful at the beginning to heavy at the end.
After several months of shooting, everyone saw more things and felt more emotions.
In this process, Chen Mubai impressed people again and again, and everyone respected him even more.
At least, after he became famous, he did not seek pleasure, but was still willing to work hard and take these works to make everyone focus more on this group of people.
His behavior deserves everyone's respect, not many people would do it like him.
Moreover, this kind of movie is too heavy and realistic, and box office audiences may not necessarily pay for it. With his current status and fame, he can definitely make simpler and more commercial movies, and the box office will be higher!
There are more and better choices but we choose the most difficult path. This is not just for making money and profit, but to actually film what the practitioners want to tell, to film good stories, and to meet the needs of the people.
The philosophy of a true filmmaker!
After the movie was wrapped, everyone held a wrapping party together in the evening.
"Come on, come on, let's all eat and drink happily today!"
Chen Mubai raised his glass to everyone, creating a warm atmosphere.
At the banquet, cups and glasses were exchanged, and everyone was very happy.
Another work was completed, but as the banquet progressed, everyone drank a lot and the topics of conversation began to deepen.
When we talked about the movie and the prospects, everyone became a little silent.
Regarding the movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine", everyone personally participated in it, felt deeply about it, and also had hope for the movie.
But precisely because of the subject matter, which is too realistic, this may not be a movie that audiences like and will not pay for.
The box office of the movie is an unknown number. Emotionally, everyone hopes that this movie will be successful, but rationally, we know that it is difficult for this kind of movie to succeed.
Therefore, what was initially a celebratory atmosphere gradually became more solemn. Especially after drinking, everyone became more emotional and their mood became more and more depressed.
"Director Chen, do you think our movie will not be loved by the audience?"
After three rounds of drinking, an old opera actor hesitated for a while and finally said what he had buried in his heart.
“We have all seen the scenes filmed by the crew during this period, and we feel very uncomfortable. We are also holding back the energy just to film this story well, so that everyone can see this group of people, so as to let everyone know the story.
More people take patients seriously."
"The subject matter of this play is about leukemia patients, but it is not about the families behind it and the millions of people and families suffering from the disease!"
"When we were filming, we just hit the ground running and didn't think too much about it. But privately, I also had expectations for the movie. I just had a question lingering in my mind. It might make you angry when I say it, but today I really don't feel happy about it.
, this movie is not a conventional commercial film, what do you think about the movie’s box office expectations?”
Chen Mubai looked at the serious face of the old actor. Although he looked a little dizzy after drinking, the light in his eyes was very determined. It seemed that this question had been buried in his heart for a long time, and today he happened to ask it out under the influence of alcohol.
He glanced around, and many people's eyes stopped on him after the old drama player's words came out, waiting for his answer.
This is not only a question for one person, but also a question for everyone.
The veteran actor chose to end the wedding banquet today because he wanted to avoid offending Chen Mubai as much as possible. Even if he offended Chen Mubai at this time, it would not affect the production of the film after the filming of the film.
The worst result is that he will not appear in Chen Mubai's works in the future. After all, this kind of thing does mean a slap in the face.
The old actor is not from Mubai Entertainment, he is an artist from Jiaxing. Although the cooperation was pleasant this time, there may not be a chance to work together again in the future, so he asked this question.
Chen Mubai didn't say anything. Instead, he raised his glass and toasted the old actor, and then drank the whole glass of wine.
The old actor didn't know what was going on. When he saw Chen Mubai toasting, he also filled a glass of wine and drank it.
After the two of them finished drinking, Chen Mubai breathed a sigh of relief and dispersed the gas in the wine.
He looked at everyone's expectant but silent expressions and said with a smile: "Don't let the atmosphere be so heavy. I'm not a tiger, can I still eat you?"
"Besides, no matter how you look at it, I don't look fierce. If someone who doesn't know this sees me, they'll think I'm cruel and violent!"
Chen Mubai's words made everyone present look much more relaxed, and some even laughed.
When the old actor was asking questions just now, the atmosphere was heavy because everyone didn't know whether Chen Mubai would be offended. Who dared to express his position?
Unable to predict Chen Mubai's attitude, they could only be careful not to be implicated in Chen Mubai's anger. This was the easiest time to become a target, so they would definitely shrink back.
Now, Chen Mubai spoke like this, and his tone was ridiculing, and he was obviously not angry. Everyone's nervousness was relieved, and the atmosphere became less tense.
