Chen Mubai and Tao Yaoyao got up in the hotel and had breakfast together.
A breakup is better than a wedding, and now is the time to be inseparable.
In the past, Tao Yaoyao would have been extremely shy about what happened last night.
Even though the two are already a couple and have had close interactions, Tao Yaoyao is still very shy due to the shyness of girls.
However, as time went by, the relationship between the two became more stable and better, and this kind of thing was no longer the same as before. Tao Yaoyao's psychology became more and more dependent on Chen Mubai, and he turned a blind eye to this kind of thing.
Sometimes, how a boy feels about a girl can be determined by looking at how attractive a girl is to a boy.
Tao Yaoyao was very satisfied with Chen Mubai's performance, which made her feel Chen Mubai's warm feelings for her.
"Are you going to make a new movie?" Tao Yaoyao asked while eating breakfast.
She was drinking millet porridge at this time, and there were two steamed buns and a plate of side dishes on the table.
Chen Mubai drank soy milk and ate steamed buns.
"Um."
Chen Mubai nodded and said: "The new movie must be put on the agenda, and this matter should be the main focus. It mainly depends on when the preliminary preparations are completed and the official filming begins."
"However, the project will be established first. At least it will play a role in publicity and diffusion of the movie. After all, it will be the first science fiction movie, so it will not attract attention. There is still a lot of traffic in this area."
"This film is of great significance, and we must make the most of every aspect."
Tao Yaoyao nodded: "It's understandable, the significance of this movie is indeed extraordinary."
Although, Chen Mubai is not willing to become a traffic star and is not willing to use this gimmick to hype.
But if you don’t want this kind of traffic, you’d be a fool.
The gimmick of China's first science fiction movie is still very loud, and everyone will pay attention to it. It would be a pity to give it up in vain.
The production time of this movie will be very long. It is now May and I am afraid it will not be released until the Spring Festival at the earliest. If the time is slower, we will have to wait until next year.
Mainly, this kind of movie has little to do with the shooting speed. Only by looking at the post-production special effects production time and when the special effects are completed can the movie roughly know the completion time.
After all the special effects that need to be produced in the movie are completed, these clips can be officially edited into the feature film, which takes a lot of time. The post-production of special effects movies is very time-consuming, which is why the production cycle of science fiction movies is relatively long.
Like a drama film, you only need to shoot the plot scenes, then splice and edit the shots, and cut out the logic of the story, so that everyone can understand the cause and effect.
But not science fiction movies!
If a plot comes out, and then the corresponding special effects shots are gone, it’s just like a fool, it’s so embarrassing...
For example, in disaster movies, there is clearly a monster behind you, or an earthquake, tsunami, or the like, and everyone flees in panic, looking panicked.
This scene should be placed in this shot. No matter how exaggerated or exaggerated the action is, everyone will agree. After all, the visual effect of this kind of disaster is too amazing.
But if the special effects were gone, it would just be a scene of quiet time, with the characters running away like crazy and their expressions exaggerated. Isn’t that silly?
Everything remains the same, except for the lack of special effects, so the effect of the same picture is completely different!
In this regard, special effects movies are completely different from feature films. In feature films, the background is the same and the actors perform the same, so there will be no sense of inconsistency. However, the most important thing in a special effects movie is the special effects, and the second is the interpretation of the actors.
The importance of actors and special effects is opposite.
Chen Mubai will work hard to produce the movie "Iron Man" and devote 100% of his concentration. This movie will definitely receive a lot of attention, not only in China, but also internationally.
Because he is very famous now, his several successes have allowed people all over the world to see his talent. Even in the United States, he has a large number of fans.
Moreover, Chen Mubai is producing science fiction movies in China, which means that this is a science fiction blockbuster produced by China. This is also a big event for Hollywood, because the rise of Chinese science fiction movies will inevitably have a certain impact on their works.
.
Even though it is only a prototype now and the impact is not that big, it is a door. Once it is pushed open, the subsequent butterfly effect is bound to exist. As time goes by, the impact will become greater and greater.
From this point of view, they definitely do not want Chen Mubai to succeed and hope that he will fail.
For Mubai Entertainment, this is also a big gamble, not only a huge financial investment, but also a rising good reputation and a film that has received widespread support for the first time.
Once it fails, although everyone may be mentally prepared and understanding, the negative impact will still exist.
If we don't make this movie and continue to make drama movies, we can continue to have an excellent reputation and drive the movie's popularity and box office, which can completely avoid this situation.
In the final analysis, it is the safest way to continue to produce high-quality feature films, rather than rashly transforming into science fiction films. This situation can be used as a challenge later if the film's ratings, reputation and box office are not satisfactory.
This is a period of transformation. If it is used well, it can solve the current dilemma. If it is not used well, no one will blame it but encourage it. After all, this is also a courage.
But doing this when the company is booming is indeed too risky. It is absolutely impossible for other film and television companies to do this. The risks far outweigh the benefits!
Chen Mubai knew about this problem and had considered it well. He was able to convince Lu Fang and others because of everyone's trust in him.
Therefore, anything that can increase the popularity and impact of the movie must be done.
Since it has taken a huge risk, any topic that can enhance the movie is a hot topic and must not be ignored, so as to increase the success rate of the movie.
On-site factors are extremely critical. Regarding the production of the film, Chen Mubai strives to do the best. This is something that must be done even after investing a huge amount of money.
Off-site factors are equally important, because they are a very critical factor that affects the box office. Any publicity, popularity, and attention can increase the public's expectations for the movie.
This time, it can be said that Chen Mubai took advantage of the public's sentiments to support this movie.
With a production budget of over one billion yuan, there is no room for error. It is also the first film in China’s history with such a large investment!
Once the "Iron Man" project is officially approved, it will definitely cause an uproar!
With a budget of billions of yuan, let alone China, it is still a top-notch production even in Hollywood!
It can be said that this film will not lack attention since its establishment. It will be recorded in the annals of Chinese film history!
"I have accumulated a lot of work during this period, and now I have a little more freedom. I have to go on a schedule. There are many programs waiting for me!"
Tao Yaoyao smiled and said: "I will definitely help you promote the movie on the show~"
"Resident Evil will notify you when it needs you to promote it. Other movies don't need to be deliberately promoted. This is not good for you." Chen Mubai shook his head and refused.
"The program team doesn't want to see you do this, as it will cause objections."
Although Tao Yaoyao is a first-line star with many fans and traffic, this is not good for her.
Although she is Chen Mubai's girlfriend, she is also a star, and her celebrity status comes first. It is understandable that she helps Chen Mubai promote his movie, but if she talks about it too much, it will be different and it will definitely cause some criticism.
After all, they are two stars, not one person. No matter how close the relationship between the two is, there is still a fundamental difference. Moreover, the company behind Tao Yaoyao is Gateway Music, and they belong to different forces.
Whether it was Tao Yaoyao being accused of gaining popularity, or Mubai Entertainment asking Tao Yaoyao to promote the movie, it was not friendly to both parties. There was no need to do such a thing, and it might also cause resentment from the program team.
Tao Yaoyao smiled sweetly: "Don't worry about that. You don't know how greedy those program crews are for you, and you don't appear on many programs anymore."
"Everyone is eager for me to tell more about you. They like to hear me talk about the things between the two of us and your movies. If they know that I want to reveal your movie in advance, they will be more interested."
This is true. Every movie of Chen Mubai is the focus. If information about Chen Mubai's movies is revealed before the project is officially approved, it will definitely trigger hot searches. For any program, it will be a huge amount of traffic!
They were not afraid that Tao Yaoyao wouldn't tell, they were just afraid that she wouldn't tell!
"I won't say too much, just reveal a little bit to arouse their curiosity and whet their appetite."
Chen Mubai had no choice but to say, "It's up to you."
Revealing some information in an appropriate amount will indeed arouse the curiosity of netizens. Everyone knows that Chen Mubai will make a science fiction movie, but they don't know the details, nor the starring lineup, investment, and specific content.
If Tao Yaoyao reveals some information in this regard, it can really increase the popularity.
Especially since she has huge traffic, coupled with her status as Chen Mubai's girlfriend, her words are very credible and everyone will believe her.
There are constant speculations about Chen Mubai's new movie, which shows that everyone is paying close attention to this first science fiction work in Chinese history.
"Remember to come find me when you have time~"
About to say goodbye, Tao Yaoyao reluctantly pouted and looked at Chen Mubai.
"Yes, you should pay more attention to rest outside and always pay attention to safety. The environment abroad is not as good as at home, so you cannot relax for a moment." Chen Mubai warned.
The entertainment industry is not as harmonious as it seems. Most celebrities not only have to protect themselves from dangers from the outside world, but also from threats from their peers.
Everyone only drinks water brought by their own assistants and does not dare to drink what is given outside, because someone may poison the water. This has happened before, and some celebrities have suffered from it. They are a generation of singers, and their throats have deteriorated as a result.
It was destroyed and everyone was lost, so everyone was very wary afterwards.
No one could find out who did it. It might be a colleague, or it might be from the enemy's capital camp. As a result, the star himself fell into silence, and everyone no longer remembered it.
Popular stars fall out of training in an instant, and things are gradually forgotten as time goes by. But stars in the entertainment industry will never forget this lesson. Everyone is very careful to guard against dangers from all aspects.
"Know it."
Tao Yaoyao replied happily, even though it was a redundant advice, girls in love like to listen to their boyfriend's "nagging" because it shows that the boy likes the girl.
"Same for you. If you are busy at work, don't come to me. Rest more. I know you have to be responsible for the later stage of "Resident Evil" and "Iron Man". You will be very busy. Rest is more important than anything else. It's not necessary.
If you don't get enough rest just to find me, I will feel bad~" Tao Yaoyao said in a doting tone.
"No problem, I will manage my time well and take care of both career and love." Chen Mubai grinned.
No matter how much they want to be together, they can only separate.
Now they are still busy with their careers. Today's separation is for a better reunion in the future. They are both working hard and just wait until everything is settled and they can stay together forever.
...
After Chen Mubai finished filming "Resident Evil", he immediately returned to Mubai Entertainment.
"Brother Lu, the filming of "Resident Evil" has been completed, and "Iron Man" has to be put on the schedule. The preliminary preparations for this movie are almost complete, and the project needs to be approved to let the public know about this movie."
"It won't be long before we can officially start filming."
After Lu Fang listened, he nodded to express his understanding.
"I just want to tell you something. Your previous script "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has been completely completed. The special effects were done as you said and the effect is very good. All the money for this movie was spent on special effects. The main actor has no traffic or
Newcomer."
"I'm a little worried, can these newcomers be able to handle the box office?" Lu Fang's tone was a little worried.
"It's not that the plot is bad, but the newcomer's influence is too low, there is no fan base, and the addition to the TV series is too little. The traffic and topic popularity of this TV series are far less than other works, even if many fans still
No support at all..."
Chen Mubai smiled and said: "It's understandable that the momentum in the early stage is smaller. After all, they are mainly newcomers, but these people's acting skills are not bad. They have been selected, so you can rest assured."
"As long as the episodes are released, it will definitely arouse the love of some people. There are not many TV series in the fairy tale genre, and martial arts have fallen into decline. This is actually an opportunity."
"What's more, now that our company's reputation has been well established, audiences who are willing to watch still have expectations for the movie. Even if the previous data is not good, everyone will believe in the quality of the work and will not abandon the show."
Lu Fang said: "It's useless to worry about this now. It just depends on the result. The publicity has been fully launched. The makeup photos have attracted a lot of heated discussions from the audience. However, compared with previous works, the discussion topics of this work are
The popularity has dropped a lot, and it can be said to be the least popular work currently."
It's a completely new actor and there's no traffic, so naturally there won't be much attention.
Fortunately, the actor is handsome and the actress is beautiful, so they have attracted a group of good-looking fans (lsp).
"Legend of Sword and Fairy" is another relatively important work of Mubai Entertainment in the current television field. After Chen Mubai handed over the script to Lu Fang, he particularly emphasized that this drama must be carefully produced and the special effects must be good.
In terms of actors, uncharacteristically, they did not use well-known stars, but instead chose newcomers. Chen Mubai's decision surprised everyone.
According to Chen Mubai's requirements for the filming of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", it is obviously a high-quality work and is produced to the highest standards. How could a bunch of newcomers be hired to star in it?
This is really puzzling. His selection decisions and production decisions are contradictory.
However, Chen Mubai finally convinced them and said that these stars would definitely become popular and he was confident in the work.
The actors he starred in were all selected from the company's trainees. Mubai Entertainment now has hundreds of trainees, which is really scary!
And among hundreds of people, a few protagonists were selected, which shows how outstanding the selected people are.
Everyone's appearance and acting skills are outstanding, and they are the best among hundreds of people.
In works with the theme of immortals, the most important thing is the immortal flavor. Immortals first have that ethereal temperament, which is the kind of fantasy everyone has about immortals.
In the eyes of ordinary people, immortals are aloof beings, so immortals must be extremely handsome, so appearance is a very important bonus, second only to acting skills.
A person with a very bad appearance will not look like a fairy when he dresses up. Instead, he will look like a country bumpkin.
This is different from martial arts movies. Martial arts and fairy tales are not the same dimension. In martial arts, you can have the kind of "old madman" or "beggar gang master", but fairy tales are different. Fighting involves all kinds of magic weapons, and you can use all your spells to travel.
He is also flying in the sky, his clothes and robes are swaying in the wind, and he is as chic as he wants.
No way, although acting skills are very important, there is one exception. Why can actors play some roles well?
That's because it's more natural to fit the role, which is equivalent to acting in true colors. No matter how good the actor is, he will act more like the character. It's like letting a beggar put on clothes, he won't be an emperor. This is the difference between the character and the character.
difference.
For those who star in "Legend of Sword and Fairy", first of all, their appearance must pass the standard, so that the image of the character can be more appropriate.
Chen Mubai remembers that the people who starred in the two works of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" in their previous lives became popular in the end.
There is no other reason. The leading actors are all very good-looking and have attracted many fans. In addition, their acting skills are not bad either, and they have finally created a generation of masterpieces.
This shows that the combination of good looks and acting skills is the right answer, and it does not require well-known stars to perform. This drama is definitely very capable of cultivating new stars, otherwise the original starring actors would not be popular!
If one person is popular, it can be said to be accidental, or it can be said to be a personal problem. But if the whole starring team is popular, then it is not the problem of the person, but the work itself!
Based on this, Chen Mubai persuaded Lu Fang and others, and invested all the budget investment in the crew and special effects, and the actors' remuneration was almost ignored!
It can be said that by truly investing all the funds into every aspect of the work to ensure that there is no problem with the quality of the work, coupled with the long-term reputation of Mubai Entertainment and Chen Mubai, Chen Mubai is confident that this drama will become a hit.
On Earth in the past life, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" became a hit. Here, its production is more sophisticated, the plot has been changed, and the special effects will be much better than before, so there is no reason for it to be popular.
"Go and see the final effect." Lu Fang said.
Chen Mubai nodded: "Yes, I'll go take a look."
After that, Chen Mubai went to the editing room.
He is also somewhat looking forward to the effect of the finished film, and then the plot has been slightly adapted. He doesn't know if the audience will like this.
Everyone generally prefers the finale of reunion, and the Sword and Fairy series are all tragedies, so Chen Mubai modified this part.
It is normal for part of the plot to be both sad and enjoyable, but the final ending is still tragic. Although it will be remembered by everyone, it will also make people heart-wrenching. The main reason is that the plot is completed overnight, but the sword is a bit deliberately to torture for the sake of torture. Chen Mubai originally
He was very unhappy with this, so he changed part of the plot and ending. This was his ideal ending.
Including leaving hints of the sequel to Sword and Sword III at the end of the first part, leading to the entanglement between the two characters Li Xiaoyao and Jingtian.
There was no such hint in the original Fairy Sword One. They only met once in Fairy Sword Three, and Li Xiaoyao gave Jingtian some help to defeat the Evil Sword Immortal.
It seems that Li Xiaoyao is the senior, but in fact, according to the time progression, Fairy Sword Three is actually ahead of Fairy Sword One, and Jingtian is ahead of Li Xiaoyao!
