Open Traveler: Culture Invasion Parallel Blue Star

Chapter 226 Brand-new gameplay, open shot!

In the following live broadcast, many viewers witnessed Lin Xuan making strange props with unknown uses.

Each of these props looks weird.

In the process, work from other perspectives is also proceeding in an orderly manner.

When taking time to rest his fingers, Lin Xuan glanced at the barrage.

[Now you just swipe Douyin, it's all ice bucket challenges. 】

[The spread is too fast, can you believe that I have received the challenge! 】

[Stop talking, let's take a challenge video first, and then watch the live broadcast. 】

Lin Xuan laughed.

This kind of marketing model has a special name in Dixing, which is called disease-D marketing.

It's just that the Ice Bucket Challenge is a positive marketing campaign.

Seeing Lin Xuan watching the barrage, netizens began to ask various questions:

[What kind of movie is this preparing to shoot? 】

[Will there be superstars participating in this movie? 】

[By the way, the ice bucket challenge is said to be for patients with ALS, how does it work? 】

Lin Xuan has something to say about this question: "In the Earth and Star version of the Ice Bucket Challenge, the rules are as follows."

"Those who accept the challenge, each person must challenge three people."

"If you take the challenge, it's going to be an ice bucket video."

"If you don't accept the challenge, you will donate $[-] to the ALS Foundation."

This kind of behavior sounds a bit forced to donate.

But because five dollars is not much, no one on the Internet takes this seriously.

But it has a deeper meaning.

That is, those who have money hold a place for money, and those who have no money hold a place for individuals.

That being said, it feels pretty good, nothing wrong with it.

In fact, though, it might have been obtained in reverse.

To be precise, the significance of the Ice Bucket Challenge is: Those who love to express themselves are praised for their personal field, and those who are unwilling to show themselves are praised for their money.

This has something to do with American culture.

The United States just likes Zhang Yang, especially public figures.

Therefore, the vast majority of public figures will choose to accept the challenge and receive wide attention from fans.

In this way, the Ice Bucket Challenge generates maximum attention.

At the same time, among ordinary people, many people are unwilling to make videos and show their faces on the Internet, and these people have to donate money.

That's the rule.

Of course, there are also some people who ignore the rules and neither challenge nor donate money.

This event almost perfectly displayed the group character characteristics of the Americans to the fullest.

But this challenge is now raised by Lin Xuan from the Dragon Kingdom, so the rules have changed.

Lin Xuan smiled: "I promise that as many likes as there are on my video, I will donate as much."

Speaking of this sentence, it seems that they are more expressive than Americans.

It seems to be more ostentatious than the Americans.

In fact, it is quite the opposite.

This reflects the spiritual characteristics and group nature of Longguo people.

unity is strength.

The more the merrier.

Countless people are needed to like it, the more likes, the more donations.

Lin Xuan is very solemn: "Because challenges will always spread to ordinary people, and ordinary people may not be able to donate so much money if the video goes viral."

"So I remind everyone that donations are all voluntary, and you don't have to learn from my likes and donations."

Say so.

But after Lin Xuan's live broadcast clip appeared on Douyin, it was immediately forwarded and commented by Testsberg.

Testberg left a sentence: "As much as I like, I will donate as much. If you like it, everyone will contribute to the ALS treatment fund in the future."

Soon, many celebrities who took up the challenge made commitments of their own.

Some people do not have much money, but promise to donate one-tenth of the amount of likes.

Obviously, the first-class bigwigs donate as much as they like.

The next best is a tenth.

After that, decrement.

Still can raise a lot of money.

The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Many people have discovered that Lin Xuan is promoting the morality of the Dragon Kingdom to replace the universal values ​​of the United States.

This is just a try.

In the future, Lin Xuan will make more and more moves.

Of course, those who can understand this are all people who know the culture of the Dragon Kingdom very well.

No one will break the secret.

The ice bucket challenge didn't end so quickly.

Because it was already late at night in the Dragon Kingdom.

The next day, after waking up from sleep, many celebrities in Longguo found that they had been at.

It's a challenge called the Ice Bucket Challenge.

At night, Lu Yun challenged the three superstars who are also from Earth Star Entertainment.

They accepted the challenge then and word spread.

But because it was really late at night, it didn't take long for the news to stop.

Until the morning, the challenge restarted immediately.

But anyone who is a celebrity or a star should take care of himself, and there are people who are at the same level or even higher than him who challenge him. If you look at it, it is a fun thing in the new Internet era, so let’s play it.

So, in the middle of the night on the US side, the ice bucket challenge on the Dragon country swept the entertainment and business circles with a sweeping force.

This is Lin Xuan's small test of the chopper.

The ice bucket challenge in the previous life did not spread so quickly at all, because although it was true that they spread through celebrities, they lacked a unified publicity outlet.

And the real number of people watching Lin Xuan's live broadcast is too high, and these netizens are the propaganda outlets.

In 24 hours, I completed what I did in the previous two weeks of the ice bucket challenge.

This propaganda is too strong.

Knowing the direction of public opinion, Lin Xuan can do anything theoretically.

Because this thing was mastered by the God of the West and the Buddha in the past.

The popularity of the ice bucket challenge has also made many people reevaluate Lin Xuan's challenge.

Since Lin Xuan can do a challenge at will, it suddenly swept the world.

It's not that hard to think about making a historical movie that week.

The next day's live broadcast came on time.

On the second day, basically the protagonist team has been found.

Monk Dolls, Faith Nigan, Bob Kubot, Li Jinsong.

This is the person with the most roles in the first film.

These people have a characteristic. They have appeared in many Omi movies, but their names are not well known.

Belongs to acting school.

Because he was in a hurry, Lin Xuan didn't have time to play games with the so-called marketing actor.

After all, movie fans thought they were awesome, but Lin Xuan knew that was not the case when he was in this business.

What is film art?
For one shot, the director can think about shooting twenty times, and one shot takes two days.

Just to find a suitable expression.

These NGs are basically used on the bosses.

They do have a high upper limit, and forcing them can produce super effects.

However, in terms of stability, they are not the opponents of those supporting professional households.

Lin Xuan knew all the procedures of the film, and could compare it with the original version.

So you just need to go through all the shots quickly.

These familiar but unfamiliar actors are needed to come out.

And this lineup also confuses movie fans.

[Such a big event, don't you want some actor to play it? 】

[With the energy of Earth Star Entertainment Company, it's like playing with five or six movie kings at random, right? 】

[This film should implement the concept of low cost. The props are very economical. The director is doing it himself, and the set does not cost much money. The actors are not well-known actors. 】

[I think Lin Xuan deliberately found non-first-line actors, just to prove that the film industry can minimize the impact of thinking. 】

【But even so, these actors don't look like good characters at first glance...】

[Maybe there aren't any good people in the movie, except for that Dragon Country man. 】

[When you say that, I also think that the man from Longguo looks upright, and the other main actors look more...]

[Wretched?Evil? 】

Soon netizens summed up their characteristics.

In the morning, Lin Xuan came to a workshop.

This is a creative workshop specializing in movie props.

Of course, it was completely different from the small workshop I imagined.

This workshop is distinguished by pure white and pure black space.

Pure white shows a very comfortable sense of space, while pure black shows a very comfortable vision.

It was decorated with all kinds of metal work that no one had ever seen before.

The Earth Star Entertainment Company has very strong financial resources, and its own base is produced according to the world's top standards.

However, corresponding to the workshop, the site is filled with all kinds of materials with very poor texture.

These are the materials for making various props.

Lin Xuan took the blueprint and communicated with the master craftsman.

These materials are very inferior in texture, not to say that they are not like them.

On the contrary, it is very similar.

For example, the steel equipment made of foam is full of rust, and the traces of corrosion are clearly visible.

The reason for saying that the texture is inferior is that these materials are either made of rusted iron, or rotten wood, or broken bricks and stones.

In other words, the props used in this movie all look very old and dilapidated.

Everyone can't think of any movies other than war movies that need such props.

The question is, seven days to shoot a war movie?

Isn't that funny.

War movies are the movies that most need big scenes.

Even so, if ten directors make war films, ten will be blind. It’s okay to fool ordinary people, but it’s funny for those who have been soldiers.

Which of those war films was not prepared for two or three years, and it took one or two years to shoot.

What kind of movie needs so many broken props?
Is it a spy movie?

These props are good things for making instruments of torture.

Under the guidance of Lin Xuan, the master craftsmen of the workshop made the first tool.

After reading it, Lin Xuan gave a thumbs up.

The tools of this master craftsman look very real.

And it fully met Lin Xuan's requirements, so Lin Xuan didn't stay here anymore.

At the same time, from the perspective of Chen Guangxiao's camera, a large number of crew members are gathering.

Lighting, photography, assistant director team, field management team, supporting actors, all gathered in Dixing Entertainment Company.

These people were all new employees, and they were directly selected by the big boss to participate in the shooting of the first independent film. They were very caring and excited.

And Chen Guangxiao also introduced the identities of these people in the camera.

Who, what film has participated in the filming.

Who held what position in what movie.

These behind-the-scenes personnel were originally unknown, but the movies they participated in were all famous.

The audience was stunned for a moment.

[It turns out that Bourne is the photographer of "Darkest Hour". The shot of the eagle flying over the cliff surprised me at the time. I still remember it now. This guy is so fierce! 】

[Tsk tsk, isn't this the Iron Bones Orchestra, which was previously known as the number one soundtrack group! 】

[I've never heard of this Liebert, but the lighting in the "[-]:[-] Reception" is simply amazing. 】

[These people are industry giants. Although they are behind the scenes, these people are really strong. 】

To be honest, the team chosen by Lin Xuan is three grades better than the team in the original movie.

And there is the original version as a one-to-one reproduction, and Lin Xuan knows the bad parts.

Lin Xuan is confident that the plot of this movie will remain unchanged, and the picture will be three levels stronger.

After all, the original version was produced in a hurry, but not so much manpower and material resources were invested, so the picture is still a bit poor.

These people happily came to the shooting location.

Around that warehouse, a lot of remodeling has been done.

All the shots of the movie can be shot in the same area after the transformation.

So these guys quickly started trying to get a job here.

The field team and the workshop were the fastest to connect, and soon various props were placed where they thought they should be placed.

Next came the camera team, who started shooting empty shots.

Generally speaking, when the script requires empty shots, that is, shots without actors, the director will not point fingers.

It will allow photography to play freely and capture the best pictures.

The photography team has read the whole script, and they know exactly what kind of shots are needed for empty shots.

However, when they were filming, the audience under the live camera could not imagine what the scene would be.

They only saw the camera team jumping up and down, busy.

One shot, another sideways panning and another sudden turn.

It was walking on the track again, and the machine was suddenly lifted on the shoulders.

With various perspective changes, it is difficult for ordinary people to figure out what the captured picture looks like.

However, the most indispensable thing among the people is the expert.

Those audiences with a strong sense of space and an extremely accurate sense of direction began to draw sub-cameras.

This is the shooting first, and then the sub-camera picture is deduced backwards.

Soon, these split-shot videos appeared on Douyin and Youtube.

sparked heated discussions among the audience.

And they still confirm each other.

The final deduced picture may be closer to the original lens picture.

Why is it possible?Because they can only see the direction the camera is pointing at, and the scenery in this direction.

You can see the scene, you can see the angle, you can see the movement track, but there is one thing you can't see, that is the magnification of the lens.

Therefore, they don't know when they are cutting close-ups and when they are zooming out.

Can only guess.

But most of the time the guess is correct.

The photographer quickly saw the video with the highest number of likes.

I found that I was very proud of an empty scene, and I was guessed a lot!
Only one detail is different.

Photographer Bourne was a bit overwhelmed.

As a behind-the-scenes person, every creation is behind the scenes, and I have never been famous.

The cost of the film shot this time is very low, but the attention is higher than any filming I have participated in.

Even the empty shots have someone to reason about what it looks like?
Fortunately, you don't know what color grading is like, otherwise you wouldn't have guessed the style of the movie if there were too many shots?

But Bourne still found Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan has also come to the set now, and is watching the set management and props team arrange the props.

"No, this barbed wire is not here, this barbed wire is here."

"Save this roll of barbed wire for me first, and I will use it later."

"Here, move a little, move a little... no, move back a little."

When Lin Xuan was directing, Bourne stepped forward: "Boss... Director Lin!"

Bourne was going to call the boss, but as soon as he called out, he found that Lin Xuan's eyes instantly became extremely sharp, and he couldn't stand the stabbing.

Bourne immediately felt that Lin Xuan and the great director Ralph he had worked with before were a director with a style and a tyrant on the set.

So Bourne immediately changed his words and called Director Lin honestly.

Lin Xuan: "Bourne, how is your empty camera? Show me."

Bourne: "That's what I'm talking about. Director Lin, look at this."

Lin Xuan looked at the video and laughed at the barrage.

[Hahaha, it was discovered. 】

[No one has been stared at like this when making a movie, it must be difficult to create! 】

[The sub-cameras of this empty shot are likely to be like this. 】

Lin Xuan thought about it after reading it: "What do you mean?"

Bourne: "I was wondering, will this affect the progress of our filming?"

"And the netizens guessed this stuff, if it feels too much, it may put a lot of pressure on the actors."

As a photographer, he is familiar with this.

Lin Xuan thought about it for a while: "Isn't there a download function on the official website of our Dixing Entertainment Company? Let someone develop a section immediately. All the movie clips we will shoot next will be placed in this section for netizens to watch casually."

"They can also try to edit and dub the video themselves."

If you want to play, play thoroughly.

How interesting.

There is no script, only seeing the camera, what can be edited?

You must know that many movies did not show the director's version, but the company's edited version was released, and they were scolded bloody.

Even if it is professional, how much influence can amateur audiences have on the film process?

They love to play, so let them play, give them all the materials and let them play enough!
Bourne's eyes widened: "Huh? What kind of fun?"

"That……"

Lin Xuan smiled: "Movies are originally an entertainment product that brings the audience the strongest sense of experience."

"In the new era, our experience is stronger, and even the shooting process allows the audience to participate."

"It's decided."

Logically speaking, movies are also a product.

A product generally has two marketing methods.

One is to make it mysterious, to make it mysterious, but not to see the true face of Lushan Mountain.

I have always heard about it but never seen it, and the audience felt like a cat scratching their heads, insisting on seeing it.

The other is to make it unrivaled in popularity, even if everyone knows it, it must be advertised every day.

It is to occupy the mind.

Because at that time, I decided to do a live broadcast challenge while filming a movie.

So it is destined that a large part of the mystery of this movie will be lost.

Since this is the case, then do your best to market and create gimmicks.

Make the viewer think they are very close to it.

When the moment it is released, the audience will definitely be dumbfounded when they see this movie!

What is a surprise?What a surprise!

Soon, Dixing Entertainment Company's official website opened a section, "Monday Movies".

Under this section, all the blank shots of the movie that Byrne just shot were uploaded directly.

After watching the sub-shots, look at the actual shots:

[This Bourne is so strong. Although the sub-camera has been guessed at random, but this is too much, this camera pulls, it is a classic! 】

[Obviously it is a very common house scene in the sub-shot, and the shooting angle is completely guessed, but because of the moving speed and oblique advancement, I actually feel depressed! 】

[This movie won't be in a depressing style, right?When it is done, netizens from all over the world will cry together? 】

[This scene is indeed a bit depressing. 】

[Forget it, let’s talk about it after downloading it. When the filming starts, the actor’s footage can be used to edit the video. Maybe the version I’ll edit at that time is the same as the version Lin Xuan will edit. ! 】

[Hehe, upstairs you really are five emperors enshrining Zen together—I want Taiduo! 】
