Chapter 28 "A World Without Thieves" starts
Beijing
Originally, Lu Chen planned to complete the shooting.
Have a few days to play in Jiangnan area and feel the tenderness of Jiangnan girls.
But Wang Zhonglei urges him every day.
I had to deal with the matter at hand and set off to return to Peiping.
These days I have been staying in the editing room, and sometimes I am so busy that I don’t even have time to go back home.
"This one is placed in front, and this one is placed in the middle. In thirty seconds, the next shot will be converted." At this time, Lu Chen asked the editor to edit "The Sword of Immortality" according to his intentions.
The whole room.
All are computers.
All are used to edit movies and TV series.
The host is quite noisy.
The main reason is that these videos have a lot of memory.
If it is an ordinary computer, it can be used to waste the CPU directly.
"It's lunch." Wang Zhonglei walked in. The four men in suits behind him were carrying packaged food in their hands. "Director Lu, you have to rest when it's time to rest. There are some things you don't have to stare at and leave them to professionals. These editors have edited countless works, so you can rest assured."
"Mr. Wang, there is a canteen below, so you don't have to spend money every time." Lu Chen knew that Wang Zhonglei was not here to deliver lunch or to pay attention to rest. He was urging himself to start the filming immediately and shoot "The World No Thieves".
"How can the food in the cafeteria be as delicious as the restaurant outside?" Wang Zhonglei asked his subordinates to put the things on the table, "Let's come and have dinner. Today there are roast duck from Peking and buns from Tianjin..."
"Mr. Wang, thank you." Lu Chen would like to give Wang Zhonglei a reassurance so that he would not come to the editing room every day. "Mr. Wang, let's talk about the investment in "The World Without Thieves" tonight. Two days later, when I have time, I will start the filming and take a photo first."
"Director Lu, I'll arrange the dinner tonight." Wang Zhonglei took out his cell phone and ordered the private room. After the arrangement, he ordered his subordinates, "Go down and buy two bottles of Moutai. Remember, it doesn't matter if you buy it in a regular store. It doesn't matter if it's more expensive."
"Mr. Wang, I still have work in the afternoon, so I'll forget it." Lu Chen declined.
"Director Lu is really a workaholic. He has to do everything himself. No wonder he won the Golden Bear Award at a young age and left his peers far behind." Wang Zhonglei did have a little admiration for Lu Chen. It is rare to be such a responsible director.
"Mr. Wang, the words are too serious." Lu Chen also wanted to lie down, but this was not about staring at it. He had to make the "Immortal Sword" complete and achieve the results he wanted.
...
Beiping, Rose Garden Villa
"The World Without Thieves" is held to finish the opening ceremony.
Then shoot the first scene.
Lu Chen didn't plan to shoot so quickly, but he was urging Wang Zhonglei to have no choice but to shoot the shots of "The World Without Thieves" in Peking first.
Go to the Magic City again and get the special effects of "Sword of Fairy" done.
As for the scene in "The World Without Thieves", there is no scene of Ge You, nor does it allow Teacher Ge You to join the group. When he leaves the plateau area, Ge You will join the group.
The total investment of the movie "The World Without Thieves" is more than 40 million.
Huaying Brothers invested 20 million.
Mars Film and Television invests 10 million.
Datang Film and Television invested 10 million.
This time, Huaying Brothers took over the majority of investment, and thanks for their previous investment in "The Sword of Fairy".
This time, the investment is not as high as "The Sword of Fairy", and the special effects shots in "The World Without Thieves" are not worth the money. Unlike "The Sword of Fairy", they are all special effects shots in big scenes, and they are very wasteful.
The biggest cost of "The World Without Thieves" is still film production, followed by film pay.
There are many movie celebrities this time.
Of course, as the director and the starring actor, Lu Chen also took away three million yuan in rewards.
The shooting equipment of the movie "The World Without Thieves" uses top professional film Sony cameras, and the equipment is rented from the film equipment companies under the film group.
"The World Without Thieves" uses film shooting. Although digital shooting is mature, it is still not as good as film.
After all, film currently has only one disadvantage, it is expensive.
And the first scene in "The World Without Thieves" is in a villa.
Lu Chen found several villas in Peking, but was not very satisfied, so he simply used his own villa and invited his aunt to play the role of "Mrs. Liu" in "The World Without Thieves".
The first shot of the movie "The World Without Thieves" was successfully passed, and the second scene was filmed.
"The second scene, the first shot, the tenth action." Yang Lei was pulled over again, as the executive director of "The World Without Thieves", sitting in the position of Lu Chen.
"Wang Bo" played by Lu Chen, holding an IOU in his hand.
Come to Mr. Liu, played by veteran actor Fu Biao, and behind "Wang Li," played by Liu Yifei.
Putting the IOU between the two of them seemed to be unable to hold back and laugh, "I owe Mr. Wang Bo and Miss Wang Li one million. After friendly negotiations between the two sides, I agreed to use a BMW car to pay off the debt. I will never regret it. Come, come, press a handprint...Click."
"Director Lu, what's wrong?" Yang Lei was nervous.
This shot was taken ten times, and Director Lu became angry several times.
"Yifei, come with me to the camera." Lu Chen came to the camera with a cold face and signaled Yang Lei to turn out the picture just now.
Yang Lei quickly moved out, not daring to let out a moment of excitement, so as not to cause any fire to burn.
"Look!" Lu Chen pointed to the camera's playback, "I just took the IOU, how did you laugh when you were laughing? This character is a female thief, a villain, not a decent, and your actions, just like your smile expression, revealing that it is pure and simple. You are not a fairy, a thief, or a thief understands it."
"Senior brother, I..." Liu Yifei has been trying hard to act.
It was my first time starring in a movie.
I feel excited inside.
Full of confidence.
But ideals are skinny, reality is cruel.
This shot has been taken ten times without even getting through.
Never NG has ever been so many times since her debut.
"Don't have red eyes! Don't cry!" Lu Chen shouted Liu Yifei's tears back, "This is not a TV series, this is a movie, and the audience is spending money to enter the cinema and watch your performance."
"This is different from the past. Audiences go to the cinema not to see your appearance, so when you smile, you must be in line with the role. Don't think about how you look good or not, but think about how you laugh in line with the plot. Quickly forget what you played before. Now you just need to remember that you are a female thief."
"Little minister, don't worry, take your time." Liu Ruyu came over to persuade him. Liu Yifei was only in her teenage years, and Lu Chen was in public. How could the little girl suffer?
"Auntie, I can wait, but the crew can wait?" Lu Chen was quite angry. "This is still in Peking. If the shooting in the plateau area is difficult and the conditions are delayed for one more day, everyone in the crew will have to endure more day."
He is so angry that Liu Yifei is getting into the state too slowly.
Still maintaining the image of a fairy.
She has to abandon her previous image.
Liu Shishi and Zhao Liying were trembling. In "The Legend of Sword", I have never seen Director Lu be so popular, and the requirements have been increased.
I just thought Liu Yifei was acting well.
Still not meeting the requirements.
How high is this requirement?
Moreover, in "The Sword of Fairy", Director Lu was quite gentle to Liu Yifei.
This movie is made.
It suddenly became extremely strict, and he trained Liu Yifei in public without any mercy.
Liu Shishi and Zhao Liying thought fortunately, they didn’t have their own shots yet, otherwise who would have withstood such a great deal of pressure?
"Senior brother, I was wrong. I must act well and do another one." Liu Yifei held back her tears and knew that her senior brother was doing it for her own good, but she didn't expect that she would ask to pull it to such a high level.
It seems that TV series is really different from movies.
"You think about your role first, and your scene will be filmed another day." Lu Chen had to film his aunt's scenes first. Anyway, my aunt played the rich wife, so she can handle it today.
"Director Lu, this is training actors, you can hear your voice from afar." At this time, a group of people came in outside, led by the director of Beijing Film Academy Zhang Huijun.
Next to it is Wang Zhonglei, director Zhang Yingmou, and teacher Ge You.
Chapter completed!
