The filming of "Mixue Xiangchen" starring Sun Qingxuan has officially started, but it is said that the progress is very slow. It seems that it is because some actors' acting skills are not good, resulting in a lot of NGs.
certainly,
Some of the actors mentioned here do not include Sun Qingxuan.
Although it was Sun Qingxuan's first time acting, her overall performance was barely passable and far from being frequent.
Chen Ming didn't pay much attention.
"Old Nine Gates" has crossed the watershed of sixteen episodes, and the following plots and scripts will all revolve around going to the tomb.
And in this process,
The audience will understand the fun of tomb robbing from Lord Buddha and Lord Er.
Some of those who originally abandoned the show because of Yatou's death still chose to follow the show again, but it has to be said that a part of the audience was indeed lost.
Mangyu TV also doesn’t care about the lost viewers. The viewing base of their platform is too large. If they lose a group of viewers today, they will make up for it tomorrow.
This has almost no impact on "Old Nine Gates".
at this moment,
Chen Ming really experienced the pleasure of making money while lying down.
Every time an episode is broadcast, Chen Ming will get a share of the episode's revenue, so he doesn't need to worry about anything at all.
the other side.
Qingrou Comics in Kyoto called Su Rou and received the good news that "My Hero Father" has been sold out on Yidiandian.com.
Now open the homepage of Yidiandian Comics.com and you can see the carousel recommendation page.
And "My Heroic Father" even broke the record of the most reward coins in a single day for a suspense comic on Bitidian Comics.com.
Su Rou was naturally very happy.
This is the first comic she drew!
Such good results are inseparable from Chen Ming's plot design and her superb painting skills.
Chen Ming is thinking about it.
Do you want to give Su Rou a full-length comic?
For example, hot-blooded comics such as "Naruto" and "Dragon Ball".
to this end,
Chen Ming also asked Su Rou for her opinion.
Su Rou can paint and work as an agent at the same time, but she may slow down her painting speed, and may even only be able to paint one chapter a week.
Chen Ming's eyes lit up.
Very good!
Just update one chapter a week.
Long-form comics are updated too fast, which means they can catch up with the progress. Su Rou writes one chapter a week.
past life,
Those long-form comics are basically updated at this speed.
Moreover, Qingrou Comics is recruiting more and more employees into the company, and there is no shortage of original animator Su Rou.
Even if Su Rou's long-form comics are updated slowly, there are other original animators in the company who draw some comics, which will not affect the company's normal business.
Think about it for a while.
Chen Ming decided to tell Su Rou about the early plot of "Naruto".
Why not choose other long-form comics?
Because nothing else is finished, only "Naruto" is finished.
........
The time has come to the end of April.
This day.
Chen Ming left home with the suspense film 2.0 script he had written and went to Xu Manke's studio.
Chen Ming's goal this time is not a micro-movie, but a complete movie.
Inside the studio.
Xu Manke had been waiting for Chen Ming here early.
Chen Ming sat down naturally and said softly: "This time, I still plan to shoot a suspense film."
"Like "The Tuner"?"
Xu Manke asked thoughtfully.
Chen Ming nodded.
Since last year, China's suspense films have begun to explode, and directors big and small are following the trend and shooting suspense films similar to "The Tuner".
But basically they all jumped!
They didn't learn the essence.
At the end of "The Tuner", the male protagonist was wearing sunglasses, and the guide stick in his hand moved forward little by little, and in the next second he knocked away the cans on the road.
This scene is a very clever finishing touch.
It was this action that shaped the ending of "The Tuner" into a gray and open ending.
If you think the male protagonist is really blind, then he is really blind;
If you think the male protagonist is still pretending to be blind, then he is just pretending to be blind.
It depends on what each audience member thinks.
However, the suspense films produced by these directors following the trend are all pretense of suspense, the plot logic does not make sense, and the acting skills of the actors are also average.
"The Tuner" took suspense films to a whole new level, but these follow-up suspense films have brought it down again.
all in all,
The current atmosphere for suspense films in China is not good.
When Xu Manke heard that Chen Ming wanted to make another suspense film, she still wanted to persuade Chen Ming, but she also knew that Chen Ming had a stubborn temper, so it was probably useless to persuade him.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Manke turned on the serious mode: "Let me read the script first."
Chen Ming handed the script to Xu Manke.
""Manslaughter"."
"The title of the film is quite interesting."
Xu Manke commented.
to be honest.
There are many Chinese movies, including "Suicide", "Homicide", and "Booby".
But this is the first time I heard "Manslaughter".
Literally understood, it should be that one person accidentally killed another person.
The specific plot still depends on the script.
Half an hour later,
Xu Manke's eyes opened wider and wider, with a very obvious look of shock in his eyes.
Immediately afterwards,
The last page of the script is blank.
"What's the ending?"
“Why wasn’t the ending written??”
Xu Manke asked anxiously.
Just reading the script made her eager to see the feature film.
So perfect!
The logic of the plot is tightly integrated, leaving no logical flaw.
More importantly,
The performance of the male protagonist in the play does not match the title of the film.
It seems like a manslaughter, but also like a deliberate killing!
Chen Ming started to play the classic trick again and let the audience guess!
Whatever the audience guesses is what it is.
Moreover, "Manslaughter" is also full of details.
But Xu Manke was a little confused as to why Chen Ming left the last ending blank.
In fact, Chen Ming was still hesitant about the ending.
"Manslaughter" has two endings. One is the same gray ending as "The Tuner". The male protagonist kills someone but cannot be arrested due to lack of evidence and continues to live his previous life; the other ending is the male protagonist himself.
He surrendered and confessed his crime.
Personally speaking, Chen Ming prefers the former.
Gray endings never go out of style!
Moreover, the gray-based ending leaves the strongest impression on the audience, and there will be no abrupt feeling of forcing a happy ending.
But the experience in the sixteenth episode of "Old Nine Gates" made Chen Ming hesitate again.
The girl's death caused Chen Ming to be scolded miserably by the audience. In the eyes of the audience, as a screenwriter, Chen Ming had thousands of ways to save the girl, but Chen Ming chose not to save her.
From the audience's perspective, they seem to prefer watching happy endings.
