Bright Era of China Entertainment

Chapter 304
It was noon, and on the national road to the film and television city, a nanny car was galloping.

Sitting side by side, Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi looked at the field scenery outside the window, remembering that the sci-fi story was initially completed without much effort, and the two of them were quite at ease.

"Chu Xuan, Qianqian, after all, you are also producers. You have gone through the preliminary work of script planning, so it's impossible not to know that this story can't be completely made into a microfilm, or even a movie." Liu Yi said.

Judging from the sci-fi story the two of you just produced, even if it’s just an outline of the story, the world view in it is so vast that if you want to tell it all, a normal movie won’t be able to support it at all, let alone a micro movie. up.

In the preparatory stage of "Zhu Xian", Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei studied with them for a few months, and they knew a little about screenwriting and scripting, and they were beginners who had stepped into the threshold.

It is impossible for the two of them not to know such a story. If it is all spread out, it cannot be made into a micro-movie. Learned in vain.

He didn't think that Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi learned in vain, after all, their learning achievements could be seen.

That being the case, knowing that this story may not be feasible to make a microfilm, but still showing it, it must have another purpose.

Concubine Liu Yi took off her fluffy hoodie, brushed her hair, looked at Liu Yi with her head tilted slightly, and said, "Chu Xuan and I want to make a sci-fi trilogy, that's why we have this story."

A sci-fi trilogy? ...Liu Yi thought for a moment and said: "The first is the end of the world, the second is the underground world that builds spaceships and flies into space, and the third is the micro-movie we just drafted to expand it?"

Chu Xuan nodded and said: "This is roughly the idea, but we'll see what to shoot in due course. It's just an idea at the moment."

Hearing Chu Xuan's admission, everyone was slightly taken aback.

True sci-fi trilogy?series?build the brand?This ambition is a bit big, but it is a good thing to be ambitious, and there is no point in pursuing the resources that blinded the bright era in vain.

"The domestic movie box office market cannot support science fiction." Wen Muye muttered.

"That's why we'll talk about it when the time comes." Concubine Liu Yi smiled.

Huang Lei blinked, and said in a daze: "No wonder the structure of the story is so big, you still want to make a micro-movie, are you experimenting with the micro-movie, and then throw it on the market to see the audience's reaction?"

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi glanced at each other, turned their heads to look at the crowd, and smiled without saying a word.

Seeing them like this, everyone got the answer.

Huang Lei gave a thumbs up and praised: "This idea is very advanced, very bold, and very pioneering. If the response of the microfilm is good and the audience sees the hope of domestic science fiction, you can start to prepare with the resources of Bright Times. gone."

Liu Yi said with a smile: "I never imagined that I could play such a game. As expected of being a boss, I have big plans for everything I do."

Wen Muye admired Kanyan Chuxuan, it’s no wonder that he has his current status in the industry at a young age, using this sci-fi micro-movie as his graduation work, and by the way, throwing stones to ask for directions, spending the smallest price to test the market, it’s not going to work If it succeeds, it will follow the trend.

The most important thing is that this sci-fi micro-movie contains three stories, which is the best.

If the audience likes it, then the sci-fi trilogy has basic expectations, and box office expectations will no longer be a dream.

Senior Brother is Senior Senior Brother, this idea and vision far surpassed their generation, and even surpassed many seniors.

"The film and television company has been established, and Brother Zhang's company has been merged into the special effects department. At that time, I will also ask Mr. Zeng about the details of special effects production." Chu Xuan looked at Zeng Zhengzong and said.

"You are my boss, so I will be straightforward if I want to know." Zeng Zhengzong smiled back.

"Mr. Zheng, how about your original painting class attached to the film and television company of Bright Times? Maybe there will be a steady stream of jobs." Chu Xuan looked at Zheng Min again.

Zheng Min raised his mouth slightly, and said, "President Chu, you are tempting me."

Chu Xuan shook his head and said, "In the current domestic market, it is not easy for film and television special effects practitioners to survive."

Zheng Min lowered his eyebrows and thought for a while, then said, "I'll think about it."

Chu Xuan nodded and said no more.

……

It was January. Compared with the windy and snowy weather in the north, the coastal Ningbo area of ​​​​Zhejiang Province was cold but fortunately there was no rain or snow.

When Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei co-produced the filming plan, they took these into account. Fortunately, everything went well and the filming progressed normally. Before the snow fell in Luoyang, the film crew moved to Zhejiang Province in advance.

Arriving at the film and television city, everyone got off the car.

"It's so cold." Concubine Liu Yi muttered, quickly put the hood over her head, and habitually extended her right hand to Chu Xuan.

"Your girlfriend is cold." She said sweetly.

Chu Xuan stretched out his left hand and clasped the ten fingers of her right hand tightly, and then put them into the left purse together.

"When winter comes, all my clothes purse is for your exclusive use." He said gently.

Concubine Liu Yi tightened her hands in her purse, the touch of warmth from the cold always gave her a feeling of relief.

"You are all for me." She said shallowly.

Chu Xuan raised the corners of his mouth gently, and led her and the others towards the studio.

The closed studio was a little warmer, but the still cold climate didn't seem to help a little warmth.

Under the eyes of Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi, many actors, teachers and group members gathered in groups to roast their hands in front of the charcoal fire.

The group performers near the actor teacher are all special appointments and prospects, because they have lines and many scenes that need to cooperate with the actors, they are eligible to get in touch with the actors.

"Add a few charcoal fires and small stools, there is no need to save this little money, don't bring Hengcheng's set into my crew." Chu Xuan said.

"Yes." Life Producer nodded.

"Watch out, don't start a fire." Chu Xuan instructed again.

"President Chu, don't worry, there is a scene manager watching." The life producer responded, turned and left.

"A group performance is not easy. It costs dozens of yuan a day, and it's exhausting." Huang Lei looked at the scene of dozens of group performances, some of them were still trembling, and said with his hands in his pockets.

"It's not easy at the bottom of every industry. It's just that I can see it in my territory. It's comfortable to spend a few hundred dollars to balance it out." Chu Xuan said.

Everyone nodded, and followed Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei to the location of the director team.

"Back?" Zhao Jian smiled.

"I'm back." Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi said.

After saying hello to the teachers, the two sat side by side with Zhao Jian and Huang Lei, surrounded by a charcoal fire.

Wen Muye handed the script to Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei. After the two took it, Wen Muye helped to turn the page and pointed: "This is today's task."

Concubine Liu Yi glanced at it, and said with interest: "The two teachers are playing against each other."

Chu Xuan nodded and said, "The battle between Puzhi and the man in black, the first special effects scene of the first episode of "Zhu Xian"."

Puzhi is played by Mr. Wang Weiguo, who is also the actor of Master Yideng in "Dragon Ba Bu", and he seems to be peaceful.

"Prepare on site!" Zhao Jian said on the walkie-talkie.

In the original book, this scene was originally about the massacre of more than 200 people in Caomiao Village after Puzhi became a demon.

In the first version of the script, Liu Yi also retained the plot of this scene, and did not make too many adaptations.

However, when the project was approved for review, the plot was called back by Radio and Television on the grounds that a monk in Puzhi massacred villagers and tarnished the image of Buddhism, and demanded rectification.

Of course, this is not what Radio and Television wanted to do, it was not allowed by the Buddhist Association.

Helpless, under Liu Yi's subsequent changes, the plot was changed to: Cangsong's disguised man in black strikes first, but Puzhi has no choice but to resist, and the aftermath of the spell finally wiped out Caomiao Village.

In this way, the monk Puzhi is passive, and the Taoist priest Cangsong is active.

Hey, passed the trial.

"Actually, it's good to change it to this way, the special effects can be brought into full play." Huang Lei said, bowing his head and stooping to the fire.

"Yeah. It doesn't affect the follow-up plot, Puzhi still feels guilty, and he will confess in front of Zhang Xiaofan." Chu Xuan held the tongs and fiddled with the carbon in the brazier, letting the heat evaporate more violently to keep warm more comfortably.

"It's just that, Puzhi has been washed clean, and he is a good person." Concubine Liu Yi flipped through the script.

"It's exactly what the Buddhist Association wants, otherwise we'll have to fight with them again." Liu Yi shook his head and said, raising his legs and putting them on the tires that were supporting the brazier.

"Hey, I heard you guys had trouble before?" Wu Qingyuan asked curiously.

Everyone looked at Zhao Jian, and gossip was a way to pass the time when they were free from filming.

Zhao Jian smiled, spread his hands towards the brazier, and said: "Xuanci in "Tianlong" had an affair with Ye Erniang and had a child. After the broadcast, people from the Buddhist Association came to trouble Brother Zhang. Request to change the plot."

"And then?" Chu Xuan felt amused.

"Brother Zhang doesn't care about them, saying that no one is perfect in this world, and you monks are all good people? Scold them." Zhao Jian said.

Hearing this, everyone laughed.

"Then they made a fuss about Radio and Television, but "Tianlong" has already been broadcast, and Brother Zhang has a great influence in the country, so it is difficult to change it. But since this happened, Radio and Television has become more and more censored in this regard. Strict." Zhao Jian said again.

"This will be judged, and that will be judged. After all, some good films will be buried." Wu Qingyuan shook his head.

"Everything has pros and cons. If you judge carefully, it may cause some obstacles to the presentation of art, but if you don't judge strictly, there will always be something that destroys the three views. Our country has a large population, and the spread of culture has the role of guiding people. It’s always good to spread positive things.” Chu Xuan fiddled with the charcoal, and inserted the tongs into the gap between the charcoal basin and the tire.

"That's true." Huang Lei agreed, and everyone nodded.

"Actors are ready!" The voice of the studio staff came.

Everyone looked up at the monitor, ready to watch the show.

In front, there are three photography walls, the empty one faces the direction of the director team, and green cloth is hung on the other three sides.

This scene looks very complicated in the script, with as many as nearly a hundred shots, but most of the shots are for special effects, and a small part of the shots are for characters, so it is not difficult to shoot. The difficulty is the post-production special effects.

The two teachers fought against each other in the air, made some movements and made some corresponding expressions, and it was over after a few shots.

These are two actors at the level of drama. If it is replaced by most young actors, it is estimated that it will take a dozen or more shots.

Filming in front of the green cloth is very different from filming in real scenes. It is easier for actors to find their status when filming in real scenes, because everything around them is real, while filming in front of the green cloth depends entirely on a sense of faith.

Whether an actor's acting skills are good or not, you can tell at a glance if you put it in front of the green cloth and take a walk in the scene.

Therefore, in some special effects scenes in martial arts dramas, the audience will always ignore the acting skills of some actors because of the special effects.

But if you take a closer look, you will find that many actors have stiff faces and embarrassing expressions.

"Teacher Wang, there is no physical performance, and the emotion is still so strong." Chu Xuan gave Wang Jinsong a thumbs up when he saw Wang Jinsong walking over.

"Is it up to you?" Wang Jinsong smiled lightly, patted Chu Xuan on the shoulder, looked at Concubine Liu Yi again and said, "Prepare your graduation works carefully, the school leaders are very concerned about you."

Before Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi spoke, Huang Lei looked up at Wang Jinsong and said, "Old Wang, their graduation works will definitely surprise you, remember to give them full marks."

Wang Jinsong looked at the three of them in surprise. Does this mean that they are ready?

"I'll wait." He didn't say much, and came to the monitor to watch the replay.

Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei continued to read the script, to see the script of the next scene, and returned to the working state of the producer.

After working as producers for several months, the two also benefited a lot.

Not only did they learn to read scripts and characters from the perspective of a producer, so as to enrich their thinking as an actor, but also made their plans for the future clearer.

The two had discussed before that there is no suitable way for them to be male and female protagonists in the domestic film market, so if there is no way, then create an original.

But if they don't know how to produce, they don't have professional ideas at all, tailor-made scripts and characters for themselves, as well as the production process and artistic tendency that dominate the entire work.

As they learned more and more knowledge, their artistic thinking about the big framework of film and television became more solid and firm, and they gradually became able to integrate the two into one and maintain the original intention of mutual achievement in the mutual discussion.

This is what makes them happy.

That's it, for several days in a row, the two continued to study and discuss with each other, and also returned to the two-point life of the hotel-the crew.

On this day, through Liu Xiaoli's reminder, the study atmosphere between the two was temporarily broken.

- Hotel suite.

Chu Xuan packed his luggage and sat on the sofa with Concubine Liu Yi, waiting for Liu Xiaoli's call.

Tomorrow is the day for Brilliant Times to set up a film and television company, and the next thing is full of arrangements. They need to return to Beijing for a while.

The flight schedule was still early, and when they were free, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei looked at their laptops, and several hot searches on Xinlang Weiyu's website attracted their attention.
